16 Self-Strategy (More)

◎Always, always, always, stay with me.◎

But until the end, Liang Jingyi did nothing.

She wanted to kiss her, but she wanted to do it openly.

"Liang Youwei, go home."

The girl in his arms had already fallen asleep. Liang Jingyi stared at her for a long time, as if he had made up his mind, picked her up by the waist, and walked out of the private room.

After her drunken outburst, Liang Youwei was very well behaved. She nestled quietly in Liang Jingyi's arms, not moving at all.

Liang Jingyi was used to being self-reliant, but she had never taken care of others. Now, when she suddenly met a drunkard, she felt a little helpless and embarrassed.

After all, Liang Youwei was so drunk that she definitely couldn't go back to the Liang family to be taken care of by professionals. Otherwise, Liang Jiangsheng would eat her alive, right?

Liang Jingyi didn't have much contact with her "father", but she could see that Liang Jiangsheng was a man who only cared about wine, sex, money and power, and didn't care about so-called friendship. Liang Youwei was able to develop such an innocent character thanks to her brothers and sisters and mother.

Liang Jingyi finally took her back to his private apartment.

Then, open your browser and search for "how to care for a drunk person."

Woke up with a hangover and a splitting headache.

Liang Youwei buried her face in the soft bedding. After a long time, she raised her face with a frown and stared blankly at the ceiling.

Why is it such a monotonous color? When did she change the ceiling to this? Sky blue is beautiful, but it's just one color, no gradients or patterns. It's so boring...

"woke up?"

Before she could finish complaining in her heart, a faint "thunder" sounded in her ears.

It was the voice of the third sister! Liang Youwei's pupils dilated, her upper body instantly jumped up, and she subconsciously retreated behind herself, wrapped in the quilt.

"…What are you afraid of?"

Liang Jingyi's eyes turned cold, and his tone was normal, "Go wash up when you wake up, and I'll make you noodles. It's already ten o'clock, and many breakfast shops are closed. I can only make it for you, and it may not be to your liking."

She knew Liang Youwei had a very picky mouth. Perhaps even she herself didn't realize it, but every time the two of them ate, her thin eyebrows would unconsciously frown.

"I'm sorry to bother you, Third Sister. I'm not picky about food." Liang Youwei said weakly, slowly lifting the quilt and preparing to get out of bed.

Glancing down at her pajamas, Liang Youwei's heart skipped a beat. She spoke weakly again, "Third sister, did I cause you a lot of trouble yesterday? I was so drunk last night, I didn't do anything bad to you, did I?"

There was no smell of alcohol on him, his clothes were clean, and apart from the headache, there was basically nothing wrong.

I must have troubled her.

"It's okay. He doesn't talk or move around. He's pretty well behaved." Liang Jingyi downplayed it and didn't mention anything about last night.

Blackout? That's OK.

Based on past experience, Liang Youwei didn't quite believe it. She pursed her lips, her eyes a mixture of uncertainty and fear: "Really? Third sister."

Liang Jingyi looked at her seriously and said word by word: "Really."

Your figure is really good.

·

Today's breakfast is tomato and egg noodles.

In fact, Liang Jingyi wanted to make her some stir-fried noodles, which would be more flavorful and tasty. But she was a picky eater and had specific rules about the amount of onions, ginger, and garlic, which she couldn't figure out, so she simply didn't make it. Liang Jingyi was afraid that she would force herself to eat and not enjoy it.

The tomato and egg dish was a bit bland, but at least there was nothing wrong with it.

The two sisters sat facing each other and had breakfast.

"Third sister, your cooking skills are so good?" Liang Youwei had very low expectations for this bowl of noodles, which led to her being extremely surprised when she put it in her mouth. She swallowed the noodles in surprise and looked up at Liang Jingyi: "This is the most delicious vegetarian noodles I have ever eaten."

Vegetarian noodles are plain noodles without any added ingredients.

Liang Jingyi didn't correct her self-righteous statement, and raised a faint smile: "What about the most delicious non-vegetarian noodles?"

"Crab roe noodles are the best. They also have shrimp, sweet vinegar, sesame oil, and shredded ginger. They have to be freshly made and peeled. If they're left out for an hour, they won't taste good."

Liang Youwei became happy when she talked about food. She sat up straight and said, "Third sister, there are so many delicious foods in May. Do you like oyster mushrooms? Aunt Gu can make a stir-fried oyster mushroom dish that is so delicious."

"I can make this too." Liang Jingyi lowered his head to eat noodles. After swallowing the tomato, he pretended to be calm and said, "I can make it for you at noon. Do you want to eat it?"

"Huh?" Liang Youwei was stunned.

Third sister, take the initiative to make her something delicious?

...Doesn't she hate me anymore? It seems that not only did I not act crazy last night, I actually did a lot of good things!

Feeling suddenly nervous, Liang Youwei nodded cautiously: "If it doesn't bother my third sister, I would like to eat." When she said the last three words, she suddenly laughed - an embarrassed giggle.

The person opposite lowered his head and suppressed a smile: "It's not a problem."

Kind of cute.

"Third sister, today is Monday, aren't you going to work?" After finishing her noodles, Liang Youwei thought of this again.

"You can take a leave." Liang Jingyi put away the dishes and planned to wash them by hand.

Seeing her strange movements, Liang Youwei couldn't help but stop her: "Third sister, why don't you use a dishwasher? I remember every house in our family is equipped with one."

"It's not clean and it's troublesome." Liang Jingyi said casually, "It's just one or two small items, it's not worth using a dishwasher."

"Isn't it a waste to buy it and not use it?" Liang Youwei muttered as she approached and said slowly, "Then Third Sister, I've eaten too, so give me a bowl."

"Can you wash?" Liang Jingyi paused and asked her sideways.

"No," Liang Youwei said, "but I can learn, Third Sister. Whatever you were able to do before, I will work hard to learn it."

She took the bowl she was using from Liang Jingyi and said, "Besides, sister, now that you're home, you don't have to do this kind of small thing yourself in the future." At this point, her voice became softer, "Your hands are very beautiful. If you often touch this glitter, it will become ugly."

"You must have never used this glitter, so how do you know it will make you ugly?" Liang Jingyi wanted to laugh.

It's shiny and its scientific name is dishwashing liquid. It's impolite.

"I'm not stupid, of course I know." Liang Youwei lowered her head. "When I was in junior high school, I asked Aunt Zhou why you, the same age as my mother, have ugly hands while my mother has beautiful hands. She said that she relies on these hands to work and earn money. Her job is to wash dishes and wipe things. I've seen that she uses this glitter every day... But sister, you don't need to make money with this. So, don't wash dishes in the future, okay?"

The fingers stained with detergent paused.

Liang Jingyi always sensed Liang Youwei's subtle thoughts. If it were her previous self, she might have responded with a half-smile and a mocking smile. But after one night, many things had quietly changed.

In the past twenty-one years, not counting her blood relatives, Liang Jingyi had only experienced the heartache and guilt of two people: Shang Jing and Jin Shuang. But last night, there was another such person by her side.

It’s Liang Youwei.

She is the daughter of Shang Jing and Jin Shuang.

Shang Jing felt guilty about her business failure, Jin Shuang felt guilty about her declining quality of life, and today, Liang Youwei felt guilty about her for reasons that were unspeakable to outsiders.

Liang Youwei's guilt and heartache were not pure, but they were real, and she felt them deeply.

Liang Jingyi's "hatred" for her gradually dissipated.

Liang Jingyi's "jealousy" of her is changing little by little.

But what exactly did it become? Liang Jingyi thought a little darkly, it must have become something shameful, something that Liang Youwei might be afraid of.

The shady person wanted to tease the child and deliberately said, "But I have to wash the dishes myself, and my hands will become ugly. What should I do?"

"Then I'll wash them with you, and help you make your hands ugly." Liang Youwei, who knew nothing, thought her third sister was being naughty. She whispered, "I want to be like you, like you were before."

Just like I don’t like you a little bit, but I still want to compensate you and feel sorry for you to the best of my ability.

"Are you willing to do that?" Liang Jingyi asked.

Liang Youwei exclaimed, "Ah!" "Does this have anything to do with being willing to give up?"

Liang Jingyi was in an especially good mood at this time. She expanded on the sentence: "Are you willing to let your hands become ugly?"

Even when this guy was drunk, he had to remind himself not to forget to apply body lotion and essence on her, and he was also mumbling about wanting a new manicure. He was obviously very vain.

After a hangover, most people are not very energetic, and Liang Youwei is no exception. She drooped her eyes and said: "I want to accompany you, but I can only bear it."

Here we go again.

My heart is beating wildly again.

And she was seducing her.

"Okay." Liang Jingyi suddenly responded without any context.

Liang Youwei, you said this yourself. You have to stay with me. You have to stay with me forever.

Liang Youwei tilted her head in confusion and looked up at her, but she could only see her golden eyelashes, her side profile with fine down, her round earlobes without piercings, and her hair that was not tied up and gently swept across the back of her neck.

Liang Youwei was a little stunned. When she realized that the other party's gaze stayed on her for too long, she found their eyes.

Liang Youwei lowered her head in a panic, not looking at her. Liang Jingyi raised the corners of his mouth and also lowered his head, not looking at her.

The two of them stood in front of the sink, one tall and one short, their shoulders close together, bathed in the sunlight, like two inseparable, entwined ivy.

Happy and relaxing times are always short-lived. Liang Youwei has been suffering these past two days because her two older sisters have started taking turns supervising her on her paper.

"The paper is only 10,000 words. Is it difficult to write 1,000 words a day? Your topic and outline are already decided, and the necessary materials, cases, and conclusions are also in the folder. I've reviewed them, and they're all very complete. You basically just need to organize the language and analyze the internal logic appropriately."

Liang Jingyi was puzzled and perplexed. "You've been in college for four years and read so many books. Don't you have any knowledge at all?"

"Third sister, I really don't have any." Liang Youwei was now even more afraid of her, and spoke carefully and cautiously, "I haven't attended many classes in four years of college, so what can I have..."

"What about the final exam?" Liang Jingyi frowned. "Cheating?"

Their university's final exams were very technical, requiring no real skill to pass. Normally, not paying attention in class was a matter of attitude, but cheating on the exam was a matter of principle, a serious offense.

Liang Jingyi was disgusted by this behavior.

"...I don't cheat. I just spend money to buy key points and find those students who listen carefully. It's not a problem to get by. I'm just not smart, not a big fool." Liang Youwei lowered her head and said in a low voice.

Liang Jingyi sneered: "Money makes the world go round, right?"

People, people, people, people, you keep calling them people. Just talk as you please. Why are you acting like a spoiled child? You're just pretending.

She felt a little regretful that she didn't study the same major as Liang Youwei. Otherwise, she could make money while pursuing someone. How great that would be.

Liang Youwei was embarrassed: "They are not ghosts, they are people, and they are very nice to me."

Liang Jingyi was silent.

Even when people called her stupid, she still responded twice.

“How many papers on CNKI have you read?”

The girl in the suit flipped through the contract and asked.

"I was afraid I might have plagiarized unconsciously, so I didn't read it."

Liang Youwei found a perfect excuse for her laziness. "Look at Helen Keller. She read other people's novels and unconsciously incorporated elements of them into her own. At such a young age, she was caught up in a plagiarism scandal, which left her with a serious psychological trauma. How terrible."

Liang Jingyi spoke bluntly: "Are you so young? Can you compare yourself to Helen Helena? Are essays and novels of the same nature?"

To put it bluntly, most articles in the world are plagiarized. It depends on whether you can plagiarize or not. Papers are even easier to write. Liang Jingyi, who finds everything easy, thinks so.

"...But my elder brother, second sister and mother all said that I was a child. Zhao Lingyu, Qin Zhen and Shao Yue said the same thing." Liang Youwei felt aggrieved and only answered the questions that she had the nerve to ask.

"Don't make excuses, just look and write quickly." Liang Jingyi was basically immune to her coquettishness at the moment. She said coldly, "If you can't finish writing a thousand words today, don't leave the company."

Liang Youwei took a deep breath, but when she spoke again, her voice was still weak: "Third sister, Second sister said that I can submit my paper later and postpone the defense as much as possible. She helped me to arrange it, and there is plenty of time. Yesterday, Second sister watched me write the paper, and she said I only need to write 500 words..."

"She says hers, I say mine. A thousand words is a thousand words." Liang Jingyi was really annoyed by her habit. She frowned and said, "Can you please stop dragging your feet and avoid it? There is only one end to avoiding it: nothing will be accomplished!"

Her tone turned fierce, and Liang Youwei also became weak. She trembled, then nodded obediently and timidly replied: "...I understand, Third Sister."

After the third sister no longer hated herself, she was the real murderer.

Liang Youwei pouted and thought while typing.

Growing up, her eldest brother and second sister had always been encouraging her. Even if she just took the initiative to throw away the trash, they would praise her for her cleanliness. However, now when her third sister looked at her, she would say, "Is your trash still waiting for me to pick it up?"

Just one word - hate! Two words - very hate!
