Chapter 49
◎Ying Yun leaned over and kissed Yang Xueyi.◎
Xu Xinran chose a very stylish Western restaurant called Sides. The average consumption per person was quite expensive. Yang Xueyi felt a little uncomfortable sitting there because she actually didn't like Western food very much.
Even more unsettling was the fact that she had no idea what Xu Xinran had suddenly called her to discuss. Although they were considered seniors and juniors, they had never met before, and with their current relationship as superior and subordinate, Yang Xueyi was actually a little nervous.
Across the seat, the instigator sat upright, cutting a steak elegantly, and chatted with Yang Xueyi about family matters.
Fortunately, the two graduated from the same university. Once they talked about the college's former weird teachers and the strange legends of the postgraduate entrance examination classroom, Yang Xueyi relaxed a lot and felt a lot closer.
And it was at this time that Xu Xinran finally got to the point——
"I came to you today because I have something to ask of you."
"You know Meng Chengyun, right? I saw her having dinner with you before."
Yang Xueyi was stunned for a moment. Without waiting for her to answer, Xu Xinran lowered his eyes and said straight to the point: "I hope you can help me pursue her."
…
Xu Xinran's words were concise but to the point. Yang Xueyi then realized that although Xu Xinran did have many students all over the world, Meng Chengyun was the most special one among all the students he had taught - Meng Chengyun had pursued him.
But he never forgot his student Meng Chengyun, and in fact he had developed a secret crush on her a long time ago.
But at that time, Xu Xinran was penniless and did not have the courage to start a relationship with Meng Chengyun, who came from a wealthy family, so he avoided this relationship. Now that he has finally achieved success in his career, he does not want to miss it again.
"I've been trying to find her over the past few years, but maybe my attitude at the time hurt her. After she went abroad, she changed her contact information, as if she was planning to break off all ties with the past."
After hearing this, Yang Xueyi said sincerely, "Mr. Xu, as far as I know, Meng Chengyun is single and works as an assistant in my friend's photography studio. She loves taking photos. If there's anything I can help you with, of course I will. But Meng Chengyun and I aren't very familiar with each other, so there's only so much I can do to help you."
"It's okay, this is enough. It's better than me groping in the dark alone."
The news that Meng Chengyun was single obviously excited Xu Xinran, and he specially opened a bottle of expensive red wine.
Xu Xinran didn't waste any time, and after directly stating his intentions, he stopped dwelling on Meng Chengyun's topic and moved on to other topics. To express his gratitude, he generously shared some cutting-edge information in the field of medical translation.
"Even medical translation, which is more specialized, is facing a significant impact from AI. As long as it is fed with enough data, AI will sooner or later achieve significant breakthroughs in medical translation."
"The industry is changing, and so must we. Although many jobs will disappear with the advancement of science and technology, technological progress and economic development will also bring new vitality. For example, during my recent business trip abroad, I discovered that domestic pharmaceutical companies have been very willing to spend money on developing new drugs in the past two years. Many pharmaceutical companies have invested heavily in multi-center clinical trials around the world, enrolling many European and American patients so that the data can pass local FDA review. They are all targeting the huge pie of the overseas market. And when drugs are exported overseas, there is a huge demand for medical translation."
…
In fact, Yang Xueyi had already accumulated considerable knowledge about the registration process at her previous company, when she was working on translating registration information for drug inserts. A studious person, she not only had a good understanding of the domestic drug registration process but also learned about international drug registration procedures from colleagues stationed in other countries at the time.
Therefore, she was quite interested in Xu Xinran's suggestion of pharmaceutical companies going overseas. However, she was listening intently when she suddenly received a call from Ying Yun.
"Yang Xueyi."
On the other end of the phone, Ying Yun's voice was a little low. He paused and said a little unnaturally: "I forgot to bring my keys."
Perhaps because he forgot to bring his keys again and was in a bad mood, Ying Yun's tone was a little stiff: "Where are you? When can you come back?"
"I'm at Sides Restaurant, which is quite a distance from home. I have something to do right now, so I won't be back anytime soon! Why don't you stay in the cafe downstairs? I'll come find you when I get home!"
Yang Xue wanted to say that her phone was running out of battery, but before she could say anything, the phone was very unkind and turned off automatically due to lack of battery.
I don’t know what’s wrong with Ying Yun. He is so forgetful and has forgotten to bring his keys several times!
Yang Xueyi thought to herself that she would change to a password lock or fingerprint lock to avoid Ying Yun coming to her whenever he forgot to bring his keys. Every time he came to her, it would be when she had an appointment to discuss something with someone else!
Originally, she wanted to find a power bank, but it turned out that all the power banks in the restaurant were loaned out. Fortunately, she had informed Ying Yun in advance, so he didn't have to wait there, so it should be okay.
Therefore, Yang Xueyi returned to her seat and re-engaged in the topic of pharmaceutical exports with Xu Xinran.
She and Xu Xinran had the same views on the industry, so they got along quite well when they talked about work. An hour had passed by the time they finished the meal.
Xu Xinran went to the cashier at the door to pay, but he had to queue up to pay and could only wait for a while.
Fortunately, someone had already returned a power bank to the machine near the cash register, so Yang Xueyi immediately borrowed it to charge it.
After a few minutes, the phone turned back on.
It was also at this time that she saw Ying Yun's message.
There were two missed calls from him, probably because the call didn't go through, so he ended up sending a message instead -
【Why is my phone turned off? 】
【I'll wait for you near the sides. 】
…
Yang Xueyi looked at the time. It was an hour ago.
She subconsciously turned her head to look for a familiar face.
Is Ying Yun really coming?
Sides is expensive, but it is considered an Internet celebrity restaurant. If Xu Xinran hadn't made a reservation in advance, it would have been difficult to get a table.
Now, not only the indoor seats, but even the outdoor seats are all full of people. For the sake of atmosphere, the lights in this store, both indoors and outdoors, are not bright, but rather have a dim and ambiguous feel.
It would not be easy to find someone in such an environment, but Yang Xueyi looked around and found Ying Yun very accurately.
Because at this moment, there was a commotion outside the bar across from the restaurant, and on the outdoor seats on the sides, there were also girls discussing -
"It was so hot, and the man had drunk so much alcohol, he suddenly started vomiting, then collapsed and suffered a cardiac arrest. He was so young."
"Luckily, the doctor sitting at the table next to us happened to be that guy. He's so handsome! He looked very cool, but he rushed out as soon as he heard someone shouting for help."
Yang Xueyi subconsciously looked towards the girls' table. On the only empty table there was only a half-drunk drink.
The entrance to the bar across the street was indeed a mess, but Yang Xueyi didn't know what was going on. It was as if Ying Yun had a radar installed, and she could always easily receive his signals.
"The patient's heartbeat has recovered!"
Ying Yun's voice was slightly cold, and despite the noise all around him, it was so clear.
The scene in front of the bar was lively and bizarre, and the whole street was filled with well-dressed men and women.
Only Ying Yun, although wearing a well-fitting suit, knelt beside the patient nonchalantly. He had just performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation, which took a lot of effort. Sweat beads appeared on his forehead, and his chest was slightly heaving as he gasped for breath. He looked embarrassed and out of place.
Amid the bustling crowd, the resident singer was still singing. In this colorful and mottled night, Ying Yun smiled.
In fact, it was just a fleeting smile, but when it flashed across Ying Yun's always serious and cold face, it was as rare as a brilliant firework that suddenly bloomed in a city where inflammable and explosive substances were banned.
His eyes were dark and bright. Although he had a cold temperament, his underlying nature was gentle and simple. He was not happy about making money, nor was he excited about success in the worldly sense. He did not ask for anything in return and had no selfish motives. The simple fact was that he had saved someone made him happy like a simple child.
The night had already engulfed the entire city, and also covered Ying Yun's figure.
Spring is coming to an end, and the breath of midsummer is quietly arriving. Time is moving forward, and everything is splendid. Ying Yun is kneeling in this splendor, more dazzling than anything else.
His profile is vivid and handsome, which is very impressive. He has a high nose bridge, deep brow bones, and slightly long bangs that fall casually. His eyes, which originally had a cold look, now have a hearty smile, which makes him even more unforgettable.
I don’t know if he attended some medical forum event during the day, but Ying Yun was actually dressed very elegantly tonight. Although his hair looked casual, it was obviously styled. On this summer night, he was so handsome that he didn’t look like a real person.
The hoarse voice of the lead singer of the night singing band in the bar next door sounded again. Cicadas were chirping all around, but the roar in Yang Xueyi's heart was louder than the cicadas and the singer's voice.
Ying Yun smiled relaxedly, looking handsome, innocent, calm and extremely sexy.
He was like the sun standing on the clouds, rising normally and shining on every corner. His mission was to illuminate the earth. Now that beam of light happened to hit Yang Xueyi, but the selfish Yang Xueyi actually wanted to steal the entire sun for herself.
As if dazzled by looking directly at the sun, Yang Xueyi just stood there blankly, staring at Ying Yun not far away.
The 120 ambulance has arrived. After Ying Yun communicated with the emergency personnel, the patient was finally safely put into the car and left.
The girls around him already had a look of admiration on their faces, and some even approached Ying Yun to chat and ask for his contact information. There were also many people who surrounded Ying Yun and secretly took photos of him.
Saving people calmly in a busy city is admirable in itself, but Ying Yun also has the advantage of good looks, which makes people take a second look at him.
There was a small light at the door of the bar, and people were moving around. Ying Yun was in the light, while Yang Xueyi was in the dark. His face was clearly visible, while Yang Xueyi was roughly a blurry figure.
However, Ying Yun looked up, as if he sensed something, and looked in the direction of Yang Xueyi at first glance.
Then he suddenly stopped smiling, his expression became gloomy, and he became cold and unapproachable, perhaps because of the irritability and the heat brought by cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Ying Yun took off his coat, rolled up the cuffs of his shirt slightly to his elbows, revealing his strong and muscular forearms, then stretched out his long legs and walked quickly towards Yang Xueyi.
He was so tall, strong, and expressionless. He came with a fierce momentum and a strong sense of oppression, and looked like he was going to hit someone.
Because of an impromptu first aid, Ying Yun's hair was disheveled, and two buttons on the front of his meticulously crafted shirt were undone, clinging to his body lazily. It was slightly soaked with sweat, revealing the lines of his muscles. There was also sweat on his forehead. Due to the huge loss of physical strength, he was panting and feeling a little tired. The worst thing was his suit pants. He was in such a hurry to save people that he didn't pay attention to his surroundings, so he got stained with vomit.
Compared with just now, Ying Yun now looks embarrassed and awkward.
But still handsome.
Of course, it would be even better if this cold-faced handsome guy didn't look at me with a sullen face as if he was here to call me to task...
Yang Xueyi prayed at first that Ying Yun didn't see her, but when his eyes locked on her, nothing she said could numb herself.
Although he had just successfully saved a life and a smile was still on his face, when he saw Yang Xueyi, Ying Yun's face became quite ugly.
He must be here to seek revenge!
He was so fierce, most likely because he was scolding Yang Xueyi for suddenly turning off her phone and asking why she made him wait for so long in vain.
Yang Xueyi subconsciously took a step back, as if she had stepped on empty air and fallen into a bottomless black hole. She wanted to hide, but didn't know where to hide.
But in this moment of confusion, Ying Yun's tall body was already in front of them, blocking the light above Yang Xueyi's head.
The next second, the suit that Ying Yun had originally held in his arm fell over Yang Xueyi, like a cage for capturing animals, successfully capturing Yang Xueyi, making her unable to resist and unable to move.
All the light in front of Yang Xueyi's eyes disappeared - the last thing she saw was Ying Yun's handsome stern face and silent eyes. His expression was obviously calm and composed, but for some reason, it always made people feel that there was a hidden sense of madness, as if Ying Yun would lose control of his emotions in the next second.
Ying Yun's voice was low and indeed contained a reprimand—
"Yang Xueyi!"
In the artificially enclosed space created by the suit, Yang Xueyi lost her vision. There was only ambiguous darkness in front of her eyes and hazy light and shadow above her head. Her breath was filled with the scent of Ying Yun, as if she had fallen into a trap that only belonged to Ying Yun.
She really wanted to close her ears, but Ying Yun's inexplicably harsh voice still came through his suit, making Yang Xueyi feel extremely aggrieved. She almost wished she was the person who had just collapsed due to cardiac arrest. At least Ying Yun treated the other person better than herself.
Why are you so cruel to yourself!
"My phone was out of battery! All the power banks in the store were borrowed, so I charged it as soon as I saw one."
Not wanting to appear too weak, Yang Xueyi decided to strike first and immediately accused Ying Yun: "And it's not primarily my fault, okay? Ying Yun, how many times have you forgotten your keys? How can a doctor like you treat patients if you're so forgetful?"
"You don't have to put clothes over my head just to get revenge on me, do you? You're not going to beat me up the next second with a mask on! I've seen your face, Ying Yun! You're so childish and vindictive! You're so cruel to me!"
Yang Xueyi wanted to continue attacking Ying Yun, but the next second, Ying Yun grabbed her and pulled her away. His voice rang out above Yang Xueyi's head again, deep and filled with a hint of helpless regret.
"Yang Xueyi, what are you thinking about?"
"This restaurant is pet-friendly. Someone just tried to come in with their dog."
As if to verify the correctness of Ying Yun's words, the barking of a puppy was heard not far behind Yang Xueyi, and someone passed by while holding the puppy and chatting.
Ying Yun's voice was filled with anger. "The person who invited you to dinner didn't know you were allergic to dog hair. Didn't you check before you came? How dare you come to such a pet-friendly restaurant?"
"You didn't bring any allergy medicine with you. Did you know that severe allergies can cause airway spasms and suffocation, and can even be life-threatening?"
"I was worried about you getting into trouble, so my tone might have been a little anxious, but I didn't mean to be mean to you."
Ying Yun's attitude was stern and his tone sounded unapproachable. He looked very much like when he was eighteen years old. Yang Xueyi could imagine him saying these words with a cold face. However, this time, Yang Xueyi was not angry.
I was afraid I might be allergic...
She was buried in Ying Yun's suit. She didn't know if it was because of lack of oxygen, the temperature rising, or something else, but she felt her face hot and her hands and feet weak. Her heartbeat was accelerating uncontrollably. It was as if a butterfly had suddenly flown into her chest, rushing around and flapping its light wings. Every subtle flap caused a huge storm, and now the wings were about to fly out of her chest.
At this moment, Yang Xueyi seemed to fall into a whirlpool, rushing towards the abyss with her heart beating like a drum. Knowing that it was a dead end, she still moved forward with her head covered. She felt like she had fallen into a swamp named Ying Yun. The more she struggled, the deeper she sank. The swamp itself knew nothing and just swallowed everyone who was attracted and fell by it equally.
Ying Yun is a doctor, so he saves lives and heals the wounded. He performed CPR on a drunk stranger who fell to the ground, and reminded Yang Xueyi to avoid the dangers of dog hair allergies. However, Yang Xueyi was moved by Ying Yun's professional ethics - as if Ying Yun was very special to her.
At this moment, Ying Yun's hands holding Yang Xueyi were still very strong, as if he was afraid that she would lift her clothes and inhale dog hair, causing an allergy.
Yang Xueyi was pulled by Ying Yun and led forward without any explanation. She could not see anything and could only be half-carried by Ying Yun while walking in a daze.
After walking for about ten minutes, as if they were finally away from the environment with allergens, Ying Yun finally let go of his hand as if he had been pardoned, and then tore off the suit covering Yang Xueyi.
Yang Xueyi finally regained her sight, but her heartbeat couldn't slow down. She felt angry and humiliated. "Ying Yun! I'm afraid of the dark! You just covered my head like that and scared me! I almost had a heart attack!"
"sorry."
Ying Yun's face was still handsome, and his apology was fluent, even skillful, but it was not sincere at all, and it was clear that he would dare to do it again next time.
His expression was still grim. He rummaged through his suit pocket and took out some allergy medicine. "I'll go get a bottle of water. You take the medicine."
"No!" Yang Xueyi waved her hands immediately. She hated taking medicine the most, and her nose wrinkled slightly in disgust. "I didn't even see the shadow of the dog, and you put the clothes on my head. There's no need to take it!"
Ying Yun didn't say anything, just pursed his lips and stared at Yang Xueyi.
After a moment, he seemed to give up: "Forget it, if you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it."
Yang Xueyi was unhappy when Ying Yun asked her to take medicine. Now that he can easily indulge Yang Xueyi and not take medicine, Yang Xueyi is unhappy again.
Yang Xueyi knew she was being pretentious, but she couldn't help herself. "Don't the reviews on your hospital app say you're handsome and assertive, and rarely give in on medication? Is it because I didn't register and pay any money that Dr. Ying isn't paying as much attention to me? He just lets me do whatever I want if I say I don't want to take the medicine..."
"Yang Xueyi, no one else has a doctor to observe their condition."
Ying Yun raised his eyelids, as if he had obsessive-compulsive disorder, and reached out to straighten Yang Xueyi's hair, which had just been messed up by his clothes. Then he warned Yang Xueyi in a low voice: "Don't make trouble."
"I bought you several boxes of allergy medicine. I'll take them with me, but you have to carry them with you in the future because I can't be with you every day or have time to bring you medicine."
What's so fierce about it!
Yang Xueyi didn't feel so good about herself that she thought Ying Yun would be there for her whenever she called.
But the most urgent thing is not to argue with Ying Yun: "I have to get back to the restaurant quickly. It's all your fault. You dragged me out directly. I didn't even have time to say hello to my boss and I left like that. How embarrassing! What if they thought I went to the bathroom and are still waiting for me?"
"Send him a text message or give him a call." Unfortunately, Ying Yun was unmoved. He raised his chin coldly, his voice a little dull, "I've been waiting for you for an hour, and I haven't seen you so embarrassed."
Yang Xueyi is very good at turning the tables: "Then why don't you come in and see me! And don't you know that this store is pet-friendly? Why are you waiting outside? Aren't you afraid that I might have an allergic reaction inside?"
Perhaps because he had waited too long for Yang Xueyi's key, Ying Yun's expression became a little dull. "I asked the clerk, and no one with a dog had ever gone in at that time, so of course I wouldn't go in and bother you."
His face was gloomy and his voice was cold and hard: "You are allergic to dog hair, but you can sit in this pet-friendly Western restaurant for over an hour. Is this boss very much to your liking? Yang Xueyi, it seems that you will fall in love soon, and then you won't need me anymore."
When Yang Xueyi thought about how Ying Yun was approached by a girl just now, and heard Ying Yun's lines and expression now, she didn't know why an unknown fire rose in her heart.
Feeling guilty, and even more afraid that Ying Yun would notice, Yang Xueyi raised her voice to bluff, "What's wrong? Are you fed up already? You're so eager for me to be single, and you're so considerate that you waited outside the restaurant for over an hour so as not to disturb me. Ying Yun, if you think I'm troublesome and want to get rid of me, just say so."
"I don't."
"Then why are you being so sarcastic and mocking?"
Ying Yun was unusually quiet.
After a moment, he lowered his eyes and said expressionlessly, "Yang Xueyi, I haven't even had dinner."
"I'm hungry and in a bad mood. That's all."
After hearing his explanation, Yang Xueyi quickly softened her heart without any principles. She thought that although Ying Yun had forgotten to bring his keys, he had also been waiting for more than an hour. This restaurant was so popular, and he must have waited in line for a long time. In the end, he finally got a turn to sit at an outdoor table. He only ordered one drink, and before he could finish it, he ran to the bar to save people.
Yang Xueyi no longer insisted: "I'm not in a relationship. He's my boss and we're former college classmates, so I just chatted with him about the industry market."
In fact, there was no need to explain in such detail, because Ying Yun probably wouldn't care. After Yang Xueyi finished speaking, she felt a little stupid, as if she had reported it to her boyfriend. Fortunately, Ying Yun only said "Oh" and his expression became much more normal. He didn't laugh at her or make a fuss about it, so Yang Xueyi finally got away with it.
She called Xu Xinran to apologize. Xu Xinran was very understanding and didn't mind. He just asked Yang Xueyi to go home early and send him a message when she got home.
Perhaps because she did not abandon Ying Yun this time, when Yang Xueyi called Xu Xinran, his complexion had recovered a little. He might also have remembered that he had successfully rescued people, and his mood seemed to be better.
She hung up the phone and remembered that Ying Yun hadn't had dinner yet.
He didn't mention it, but Yang Xueyi also knew that the current per capita consumption at Sides store might far exceed Ying Yun's current ability, not to mention that he still owed 60,000 yuan in debt. Therefore, he couldn't contact Yang Xueyi, and he was embarrassed to rush into the store and look for her at every table, so he could only sit at the door, order a drink and wait.
Yang Xueyi made a decision: "You just successfully saved a life, so we should celebrate! Ying Yun, I'll treat you to sides!"
Although it is a bit expensive, it is not unacceptable. Yang Xueyi has just taken on several new jobs recently, and her future is promising.
"No."
Ying Yun glanced at Yang Xueyi, then lowered his eyes: "Let's go eat hot pot."
Yang Xueyi was a little surprised: "Do you want to eat hot pot?"
Ying Yun looked up and said calmly, "I don't mind. But you don't like Western food, so there's probably nothing you can eat in this restaurant."
Yang Xueyi was stunned: "How do you know I don't like Western food?"
"When you eat Western food, you always fiddle with your knife and fork, making so many small movements that it looks like you're working hard on the steak, but in reality, you're just chopping the steak into small pieces and putting them in your mouth, pretending to chew them. Then, when no one's looking, you pretend to wipe your mouth and secretly spit a little bit into the napkin."
Ying Yun glanced at Yang Xueyi and said, "It used to be like this in my house. Anyone with a little eye can see it."
He lowered his eyes and said in a calm voice, "Why do you think our family rarely ate Western food later on? You could have just said it at the time."
The old story stirred up new ripples, and Yang Xueyi felt only bitterness and grievance: "If I had told you directly at that time, you would have laughed at me for being unsophisticated, so I couldn't even eat Western food. You hated me so much back then."
"I don't hate you."
Ying Yun lowered his eyes and explained quickly, but Yang Xueyi certainly didn't believe it.
How could I have been so cold to her at that time if I didn't hate her?
"At least you give me the feeling that you hate me, so it must be your problem, and you should apologize."
"I understand." Ying Yun seemed a little helpless, but perhaps because he was now living under someone else's roof, he was still very cooperative with Yang Xueyi's sudden unreasonable behavior, and apologized almost submissively, "I'm sorry."
He repeated, "I don't hate you. You're fine. It's me who has the problem."
The two were now walking towards a nearby hot pot restaurant. As the night deepened, the weather became cooler. The wind blew Yang Xueyi's hair, sweeping away the restraint and embarrassment she felt in the expensive Western restaurant. She was finally herself again. The glass of red wine had fermented a slight taste of alcohol, and she was slightly tipsy but still sober. Only her steps became lighter.
Yang Xueyi was jumping on the road, not wanting to walk properly.
She turned around to look at Ying Yun. He was still the same, taciturn, handsome and silent as ever, following Yang Xueyi slowly.
Under the street lights at dusk, Yang Xueyi saw something.
She jumped in front of Ying Yun and said, "Ying Yun, wait a moment!"
Yang Xueyi stood on tiptoe and moved closer to Ying Yun.
A small piece of wool from nowhere got stuck in his hair.
Yang Xueyi's original intention was to help Ying Yun take it away out of kindness, but her action of tiptoeing closer to Ying Yun and leaning forward was obviously understood by Ying Yun as something else. There was a moment of panic and surprise in his eyes, then he quickly regained his composure, subconsciously took two steps back, and pushed Yang Xueyi away with a firm expression.
Yang Xueyi was not a fool. She understood Ying Yun's intention almost instantly - he thought Yang Xueyi was going to kiss him, and pushed Yang Xueyi away.
The good mood just now disappeared in an instant like the receding tide. Yang Xueyi's cheeks were burning hot, and a feeling of humiliation swept over her whole body. She was almost crying with anger for a moment.
Body reactions can't lie. Ying Yun just doesn't like her and hates her, which is why he subconsciously avoided her when he thought Yang Xueyi was going to kiss him.
Garbage Yingyun! That's it!
I didn't see him push me away when they were in bed. Wasn't he very proactive in kissing Yang Xueyi?
So you still feel that your relationship with Yang Xueyi cannot be made public, and therefore you absolutely don't want to have any intimate physical contact with Yang Xueyi in public?
You can go to bed with someone in private, but you can’t even kiss them in public.
After all, Ying Yun still has a line in his heart. Yang Xueyi is the person he is forced to pretend to be with when he is in trouble, but she is not the kind of person he would take with him.
At that moment, Yang Xueyi felt that everything around her was spinning, the ground was shaking, the street lights were swaying, and her heart was shaking. The huge and sudden sense of humiliation made her world seem to be crumbling.
Yang Xueyi tried hard to hold back her tears, her eyes reddened, her lips pursed, and she silently defended herself with her actions. She took the wool off Ying Yun's head and made up her mind to break up with Ying Yun.
Although she didn't eat anything in the Western restaurant, Yang Xueyi lost interest in eating hot pot.
"Yang Xueyi, it's not what you think."
What else can we do?
Yang Xueyi didn't want to talk and just kept her mouth shut stubbornly. Ying Yun didn't explain anymore, but his expression was a little helpless. As the two of them were walking to the door of a convenience store, Ying Yun changed the subject.
"Yang Xueyi, what fruit flavor do you like? Grape, right?"
Adults need to turn a blind eye to many things. Yang Xueyi knew that this was Ying Yun's concession. He would buy her a bottle of drink, and then the two of them would tacitly pretend that what happened just now had never happened, and they would naturally end the ties after returning.
From then on, the two of them kept their distance from each other, and gradually they had no more contact.
Yang Xueyi was discouraged and confused for a moment, but then she realized she had no right to be angry, so she stopped insisting: "Well, I like grapes."
"Okay. Wait for me."
Ying Yun turned and went into the convenience store. Yang Xueyi didn't even want to go in with him. She just stood on the street waiting. The neon lights on the roadside flickered. The light tubes of the subway sign opposite probably had poor contact. The letters S and B kept flickering on and off, constantly reminding Yang Xueyi of the word SB, as if it was some kind of hint to her.
Just as Yang Xueyi started thinking of some hellish jokes in her mind to try to cheer herself up, Ying Yun came out of the convenience store.
He looked a little tired, but he didn't buy anything.
Yang Xueyi frowned slightly, but she didn't want to argue anymore: "If there's no grape flavor, any other flavor will do."
"have."
As he spoke, Ying Yun had already walked in front of Yang Xueyi. Without waiting for Yang Xueyi's reaction, he gently lifted Yang Xueyi's chin with his hand. Yang Xueyi could not clearly understand the feeling at that moment, because the rhythm of her heartbeat was as deadly as falling from a missed step. Ying Yun's face was right in front of her, with a neat handsomeness, like the most romantic and affectionate English love poem Yang Xueyi had read in her youth.
Such scenes carried an ambiguous omen, like a rain destined to fall. Yang Xueyi already had a premonition in her heart.
Sure enough, the next second, Ying Yun leaned over and kissed Yang Xueyi.
Yang Xueyi opened her mouth slightly subconsciously, holding Ying Yun's lips and tongue, and then she knew where the grape flavor was——
In Ying Yun’s mouth.
It has a refreshing grape aroma, and is rich, soft and juicy, which is the taste Yang Xueyi likes.
The tips of their noses bumped lightly together. There were pedestrians passing by, but Ying Yun didn't care at all. He kissed her passionately, taking short breaths.
Yang Xueyi's limbs were limp from the kisses, as if she had fallen into a jar of marshmallows. The ground beneath her feet felt soft, and she had no foothold to stand on. However, the marshmallows were so sweet that she had no urgent desire to escape.
Ying Yun didn't let go of Yang Xueyi until she was blushing and panting. His face was still calm and cold, but not as relaxed as before. He cleared his throat, as if he didn't want to explain too much, but in the end he did explain -
"It's not that I hate you or avoid you."
"I just gave someone artificial respiration. The patient was a man. He drank alcohol and vomited before he fainted."
"I used grape-flavored disposable mouthwash. So it's okay now." He raised his eyelids and glanced at Yang Xueyi. "Is this explanation acceptable? Do you still want to convict me?"
Yang Xueyi's face flushed crimson, her heartbeat unbearably fast, and she threatened Ying Yun to hit him: "Ying Yun, please don't misinterpret this! What's the point of explaining or not? I didn't mean to kiss you just now! Have you any shame?"
This time, Ying Yun smiled. He pulled down Yang Xueyi's raised hand, as if to stop her from doing anything again, and grasped her palm. "I know. I was being self-indulgent and shameless. Do you still want to eat hot pot?"
Yang Xueyi said viciously: "Eat!"
It’s all Ying Yun’s fault. It’s definitely because kissing consumed a lot of energy. Yang Xueyi felt a hundred times hungrier than before.
