"...Hmm."
Lu Yibei was revived, and his head rose from his forearm.
His first impression was that the bright lights were piercing his eyes.
Then he realized that he had leaned against the table.
He instinctively looked up to look at the ceiling.
But then he forgot that he was sitting on a stool, not a chair.
The difference between the two is that the former does not have a backrest.
When his body leaned too far and he was about to fall, Lu Yibei:
"…Grass."
Fortunately, his excellent balance prevented him from falling flat on his back.
The girl beside him also promptly offered a helping hand, giving him a push on the back.
They managed to save him by a hair's breadth.
"fine?"
Then, Lu Yibei heard the girl ask.
Upon hearing that clear, cold voice, Lu Yibei, who had just regained his sight, also felt as if he had regained his hearing.
He received all the noise from the surroundings.
They clinked glasses, talked, and made a lot of noise.
Lu Yibei shook his head, feeling slightly dizzy and aching, but not seriously.
I've only been awake for a short while, but I can already feel that I'm much better.
He's still at the barbecue restaurant.
The shop was still bustling with people.
But the two tables they were sharing had been separated, and everyone had left, leaving only him.
And Ji Qingqian, who was by his side.
Lu Yibei was slightly dazed as he looked around.
"Abei."
The girl beside him called out to him.
Lu Yibei turned his head, probably because he couldn't concentrate too much yet.
His first glance fell on his girlfriend's delicate face, but his second glance inexplicably fell on the screen of her phone, which she had placed on the table.
—A massive zombie invasion.
In the front row are gloomy mushrooms, in the middle are four corn cannons, and in the back row are four twin sunflowers diligently producing sunlight.
…Playing PvZ again.
Ji Qingqian held up one finger: "What is this?"
Lu Yibei smiled wryly: "I'm not drunk."
Ji Qingqian didn't believe it at all and asked repeatedly, "What is this?"
Lu Yibei said helplessly, "This is one."
Ji Qingqian narrowed her eyes: "These are fingers, you idiot. All you see is one and zero."
Lu Yibei: ...
Ji Qing pursed her lips, successfully teasing her boyfriend and bringing a satisfied smile to her face.
“…If you don’t fire the corn cannon soon, we’re going to lose this round of Endless Mode,” Lu Yibei said.
Ji Qingqian quickly turned her head and picked up her phone.
But she still didn't fire the shell; instead, she quit the game.
The games are most fun when Ah Bei isn't around. When Ah Bei is awake, of course we have to play... no, of course we have to keep Ah Bei company.
"Where are they?" Lu Yibei asked.
"They've already left."
Ji Qingqian replied, "You've been sleeping for more than three hours."
Lu Yibei remained oblivious: "Is that so?"
He glanced at Ji Qingqian's lit screen; it was almost midnight.
No wonder the customers at the barbecue restaurant have changed from students to all kinds of working professionals.
Lu Yibei glanced back at Ji Qingqian and said, "I'm sorry, you've had a long wait."
Ji Qing pursed her lips and shook her head.
“Actually, I could have just had Fatty carry me back,” Lu Yibei said.
His fat son wasn't just chubby; he was actually quite strong, so carrying him on his back was no problem at all.
Ji Qingqian said, "He made the same suggestion, but I refused."
Lu Yibei: "Hmm?"
Ji Qingqian's eyebrows curved slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her lips:
"I'm afraid you'll be scared if you open your eyes and can't see me."
Lu Yibei chuckled, "He's not a child."
but.
“You’re right,” Lu Yibei said. He wasn’t afraid if he couldn’t see Ji Qingqian at first glance.
But he would be even happier if he could see Ji Qingqian at first glance.
Actually, Ji Qingqian also had a little selfish motive.
She hopes to be the last person Ah Bei speaks to, and the first person to speak to him next year.
Ji Qingqian glanced at Lu Yibei, who was taking a deep breath:
"fine?"
"good."
"Can you get up?"
"It should be possible."
"I'll help you up."
"good."
After helping Lu Yibei to his feet, Ji Qingqian finally remembered, her mind still sluggish from the alcohol: "Check, please."
But then I realized that my table had been cleaned up very well, so the bill must have been paid.
Chen Wei hadn't originally invited so many people; it was Lu Yibei who suggested that both dorm rooms join in.
So he has to split the bill with Chen Wei.
“I’ve already paid,” Ji Qingqian said.
"…OK."
Even so, Lu Yibei's shout still attracted the attention of Chen Ge, a staff member at the barbecue restaurant:
"No, Yibei, how much did you drink? You've been sleeping for so long."
Lu Yibei remained calm and composed, saying lightly, "Half a bottle, I guess."
Brother Chen was shocked: "Good heavens, you drank half of that bottle by yourself?!"
Lu Yibei nodded.
"You should drink less!" Brother Chen advised, and then said to Ji Qingqian, "Don't let your husband drink like this in the future."
Ji Qingqian wanted to laugh, but for the sake of her husband's...boyfriend's face, she held back—even her way of addressing him was almost misled by Brother Chen.
"I'm off." Lu Yibei waved his hand.
"Sister-in-law, please help him. Even if he can drink, he shouldn't drink like this!"
Brother Chen is still an honest and kind person. As Ji Qingqian helped Lu Yibei to the door, she could still hear him giving her his earnest instructions.
Ji Qingqian suppressed a smile and praised him lightly:
"Young master, a large quantity."
Lu Yibei: "...I already said beer makes you feel bloated."
"But you're drinking baijiu (Chinese liquor)."
