Extra 33
Fu Yin's gaze made her heart flutter, as if she already knew what he was going to say.
Before he could speak, Qin Anning interrupted, "You've had too much to drink. Whatever you say, I'll take it as nonsense."
“Fu Yin, if you’ve really thought it through, then tell me in person tomorrow when you’re sober. Right now, I don’t want to hear anything.”
After saying that, she ignored Fu Yin's reaction and stood up from him. "If you don't even have this much courage, then I really misjudged you."
After saying that, Qin Anning walked out of the restroom without looking back.
Xiao Song was still standing at the door. Seeing her come out, he said worriedly, "Miss Qin... President Fu, he..."
Qin Anning said, "He's in the restroom. Could you please take him back?"
"ah?"
Qin Anning said nothing more and walked past Xiao Song to leave the club.
Xiao Song was left standing there, looking completely bewildered. She didn't know what had happened. Had the two of them had a fight?
She sighed, walked helplessly into the private room, and went to the restroom.
Standing at the door, she saw Fu Yin still sitting on the ground against the wall, his gaze fixed on a certain point in the air, lost in thought.
Xiao Song hesitated before speaking, "President Fu..."
Fu Yin ignored her, as if he hadn't heard her, and remained in that position without even blinking.
Xiao Song mustered her courage and stepped forward, trying to help him up. "Mr. Fu, let me take you home."
She tugged at him twice, but couldn't budge him.
Xiao Song took two deep breaths, just as he was about to exert all his strength, when Fu Yin suddenly moved.
He braced himself against the ground, stood up unsteadily, and walked out without saying a word.
Qin Anning sat in the taxi, watching the night view rushing past outside, her expression dazed.
Qin Man was holding potato chips in her arms, with a face mask on her face, and staring at the period drama playing on the TV in front of her.
She pointed to the male lead and said, "I had dinner with this celebrity before. He looks quite handsome on TV, but in reality he's as thin as a bamboo pole and not good-looking at all. He doesn't even have abs."
Yang Jingyu was engrossed in short videos and had no time to pay attention to her.
Just as Qin Man was about to speak, the doorbell rang. She nudged Yang Jingyu's leg and said, "Someone's here. Go open the door."
Yang Jingyu stood up and walked suspiciously towards the door. "Who would come so late at night?"
As he spoke, he reached the door, opened it, and exclaimed in surprise, "Anning, what brings you here?"
Qin Anning smiled and said, "I've come to see you all. You've moved to a new house, so I had to come and congratulate Xiaoman."
"Oh, she's inside. Let's go in."
Qin Anning walked into the room, looked around, and nodded, saying, "This house is quite nice. How much did it cost?"
Yang Jingyu held up three fingers. "Thirty million."
"Wow, they're really rich."
Qin Anning walked over to Qin Man and sat down next to her. "When are you planning to look for a job?"
"Let's play for a couple of days first, what's the rush to find a job?" She looked at Qin Anning, "You came all this way so late, aren't you going back?"
"Why go back? I'm here to keep you company. Don't you want me to come?"
Qin Man grinned and took her arm. "Of course I hoped you would come. I thought you were still angry."
Qin Anning was taken aback, her smile faded slightly, and she immediately changed the subject, "What TV are you watching?"
"I don't know, I just picked one randomly to kill time when I was bored."
Qin Man rolled her eyes, picked up the remote control, and said, "Why don't we watch a horror movie? It's more exciting to watch horror movies at night."
Qin Anning nodded, "Okay."
Yang Jingyu tried to slip away, but Qin Man grabbed his T-shirt sleeve. "Don't run away, sit still!"
She used too much force and ripped Yang Jingyu's clothes off his shoulder, exposing most of his shoulder.
Yang Jingyu yanked her clothes back, yelling, "You female hooligan!"
Qin Man chuckled irritably, picked up the remote and searched for horror movies, saying, "Stop being so narcissistic, sit down properly. If you dare to leave, you'll be moving out tomorrow."
As the saying goes, "When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head," and Yang Jingyu resignedly sat down.
Qin Man found a highly-rated horror movie, turned off the living room lights, and the room instantly went dark, with the pale white light of the TV flickering in the living room.
Less than ten minutes into the movie, the two of them screamed in surprise several times.
They're clearly afraid of each other, yet they still engage in verbal attacks to save face.
In contrast, Qin Anning leaned forward, resting her elbows on her knees, propping her chin up, and staring intently at the television without any reaction.
Yang Jingyu and Qin Man had already huddled together, belatedly realizing that something was missing. They exchanged a glance and then turned to look in Qin Anning's direction.
Qin Anning watched intently, not even blinking, and didn't react to several horrifying scenes.
Yang Jingyu exclaimed, "He is truly a role model for us all."
Qin Man's eyes darted around, and she got up and sat down next to Qin Anning.
After a long while, Qin Man realized that she wasn't watching attentively at all; she was clearly daydreaming.
Qin Man nudged her arm. "An Ning, what are you spacing out for?"
Qin Anning snapped out of her daze and looked at Qin Man blankly. "What?"
"I knew it! Why didn't you react at all? What happened?"
Qin Anning forced a smile, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about work."
"You're so dedicated! It's so late, and you're still thinking about work." Qin Man gave her two thumbs up in admiration.
Qin Anning said, "Alright, alright, I don't want to think about it anymore. Let's watch a movie."
She composed herself, shifted her position on the sofa, and watched the images on the television screen.
Qin Man was chattering away beside her, but Qin Anning quickly lost track of what she was saying and started to drift off into thought again.
Qin Man noticed it too. She gave a speechless twitch of her lips, returned to Yang Jingyu's side, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with her?"
Yang Jingyu shook his head blankly, "I don't know."
Qin Man suddenly became worried, "Could it be because of what happened yesterday? Did the two of them have a fight? Is that man really that petty?"
Yang Jingyu asked, "What is it?"
"It's just that she spent 20,000 yuan of her boyfriend's money yesterday."
She briefly explained what had happened, and Yang Jingyu pondered, "That can't be, Fu Yin isn't that petty."
"What happened to Anning? She was fine yesterday."
"It must be work-related. The company is just starting out, and there are a lot of troubles."
"Is that so?" Qin Man was half-believing and half-doubting, but she didn't think too much about it. As long as it wasn't because of her, that was enough.
Two-thirds of the movie had already passed when Qin Man couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep on the sofa.
Yang Jingyu was in a similar situation. The movie was full of jump scares. It was quite scary at the beginning, but it kept using the same formula, so he became numb to it and fell asleep.
Qin Anning finished watching the movie by herself. When she came to her senses, the two of them were sprawled out on the sofa, and the time displayed in the upper right corner of the TV screen was 12:30.
