Chapter 7
I slept all day, and Jiangjiang woke me up by licking me. After I poured her dog food, I took one of your coats from the closet, wrapped it around myself, and leaned back on the sofa in a daze. Our house is quite big.
It's a bit cold.
It's so empty! I turned on the TV, and a currently popular drama was playing. The male and female leads were arguing.
Male protagonist: "Who is that woman?"
The female lead: "She's just a friend."
Male protagonist: "You're talking nonsense!"
…
Have we ever argued about someone before? Well, it wasn't really an argument, it was just me getting angry, since I hadn't won you over yet, right, Mr. Jiang?
Qi Chengchen said I've always been dull and have never actively pursued anything in my life. That's not entirely true. My parents passed away early when I was young, and I lived with my grandparents. Growing up wasn't easy for Qi Chengchen and me, so acting cute or anything like that is useless and unnecessary. Besides, I don't really want anything.
Except for you.
"The iron tree blooms, what an eye-opener!" - Qi En's own words.
My college roommate, who's been a seasoned player in the dating scene since childhood, finds it unbelievable that I keep coming back empty-handed from you. She finds this situation fascinating and offers me advice. Once, I wore a white embroidered dress that she lent me, and at first glance, it looked quite fresh and elegant. She even gave me some of her five-figure cosmetics to use, including an unopened four-figure lipstick. I trembled, afraid to apply too much, and pursed my lips several times.
Unfortunately, it rained that day, and your basketball game was postponed, leaving me alone in the gymnasium.
Just as I was wondering how to get back, you appeared from the depths of the rain. You walked to the entrance of the stadium, holding another umbrella in your hand. Just as you stepped onto the steps, a girl in a short skirt came out and stopped next to you.
I've been standing in front of you for so long and you still don't know who she is. The information I've gathered doesn't mention that you have someone you like.
I watched you hand the umbrella to her, and although I don't want to admit it, I felt a pang of envy.
The girl took the umbrella and left. Before I could even react, you turned around, glanced at me, and said in an irritating tone, "Alone?"
How would I know what you mean? Still immersed in the pain of heartbreak, I still asked, unwilling to give up, "Who is she?"
"Who?" You're even more confused than I am.
"That girl from just now! Is she someone you like?"
"My roommate's crush, whose dog was being held up by the student council, told me some news and also brought him an umbrella."
It turns out it wasn't the person I liked. Oh well, I've decided to take a gamble.
Have you ever tried a lipstick that costs two thousand yuan?
You wonder, "I don't eat lipstick."
"Then I'll broaden your horizons today."
Who knew you were so beautiful but actually so innocent? I just kissed you, and you got so angry your hands were shaking.
Unfortunately, Qi Chengchen called at that moment. I had just taken out my phone and hadn't answered yet when you saw the contact name was "Brother" and snatched it away to complain: "You bastard!"
Qi Chengchen was inexplicably insulted, which made him even angrier: "Damn it!"
"Your sister kissed me!"
Qi Chengchen choked back a sob: "...How did you kiss him?"
Now it was your turn to choke up: "...two thousand."
"Are you made of gold? A kiss costs two thousand! Or did Qi Chengheng drink your blood?"
"..."
Finally, the phone was returned to me, and Qi Chengchen asked, "Qi Chengheng, you spent two thousand to force a kiss?"
"His first kiss, bro, you've got a sure win."
For the first time, Qi Chengchen thought I was a female hooligan, and even began to doubt the correctness of his education. After careful consideration, he deducted five hundred yuan from my pocket money that night.
