The significance of October 9th
The next morning, Zhang Jiye was woken up early by a phone call from Cheng Junming.
Zhang Jiye answered the call impatiently.
"Hey, Zhang Jiye!" Cheng Junming's voice was filled with excitement.
"What are you doing?"
"Ha! Ha! Ha! I'm finally out of single life!" Cheng Junming's excited voice couldn't be contained.
"..."
"Oh, unlike me, I've been single for a long time." Zhang Jiye's lazy voice came over.
"..."
"Anyway, I got out of being single before Lao Lin, he's still a single dog!"
"That's true, he's the only one who doesn't have a girlfriend."
"But speaking of which, who is your boyfriend?" Zhang Jiye was still somewhat curious.
"Guess."
"..."
"Fine, don't tell me then."
"..."
"Want to go out for drinks today?"
“You beg me,” Zhang Jiye said casually.
"..."
"You want to know who my partner is? I'll bring my partner along too."
"I don't want to know anymore."
"..."
"Zhang Jiye! You're heartless! I finally managed to get out of being single and wanted to celebrate with some of my buddies, and what do you do?! You don't even bother to come out and celebrate my success in finding a partner!"
"..."
"Okay, okay, I'll go, alright?" Zhang Jiye gave in to him.
"Okay."
"Oh, right, you can bring your Xu Chuwan along too."
"No, I won't bring it."
"Why?"
"My Wanwan wouldn't hang out with people like you," Zhang Jiye said lazily.
"..."
"Then I'll go talk to her myself."
"..."
"Why do you insist on letting her go?" Zhang Jiye asked Cheng Junming.
"Because my partner and your partner are related."
"And their relationship isn't just any ordinary relationship," Cheng Junming added.
"Fine, I'll take pity on you today and bring my Wanwan to celebrate for you," Zhang Jiye said mercifully.
"..."
"Then I really appreciate it," Cheng Junming said, going along with his words.
Meanwhile, Xu Chuwan was still fast asleep when she was woken up by Shen Yan's phone call.
Xu Chuwan turned on speakerphone and answered the call.
"Hello……"
Xu Chuwan was interrupted by Shen Yan before she could finish speaking.
"Wanwan! I'm no longer single!"
"You're no longer single?"
"yes!"
"And you'd never guess who it will be!" Shen Yan said confidently.
"Let me guess."
Xu Chuwan thought of one person: Cheng Junming.
It must be him.
"Is it... Cheng Junming?"
"Oh my! Wanwan, how are you so smart? You guessed it right away." Shen Yan's voice was a little shy.
"You two are together?"
Shen Yan hummed in agreement.
He confessed his feelings to me first.
Xu Chuwan smiled when she heard this.
No wonder Xu Chuwan had a premonition when she was in her second year of high school that the two of them would definitely be together in the future.
"Congratulations!"
"Thank you, Wanwan."
"Actually... I liked him too when I was in high school." Shen Yan realized her ears were red when she finished saying this.
After chatting with Shen Yan for a few minutes, Xu Chuwan hung up.
Xu Chuwan opened WeChat and found that Zhang Jiye had sent her several messages:
Cheng Junming got a girlfriend, and he wants me to go to a bar tonight to celebrate. Do you want to come?
After reading the message, Xu Chuwan typed a reply:
Sure, that works.
Xu Chuwan thought that Zhang Jiye definitely didn't know that Cheng Junming's girlfriend was Shen Yan.
At this moment, Zhang Jiye sent another message:
Okay, you agreed to it so readily.
"..."
Xu Chuwan knew this man was jealous again, so she had no choice but to coax him by typing:
I'm not jealous at all. You...you're jealous?
Zhang Jiye replied arrogantly:
No.
"..."
Xu Chuwan tried to coax him several more times, but he still acted up.
Xu Chuwan patiently coaxed:
Don't be angry, okay?
The other side remained unmoved.
Xu Chuwan continued to coax him:
Please have mercy and forgive me, okay?
Zhang Jiye decided to continue his "acting up" and replied arrogantly:
Hmph, you're dreaming.
"..."
Xu Chuwan unleashed her ultimate move, sending a voice message:
Don't be angry anymore, okay? Boyfriend?
Zhang Jiyue indeed "took the bait" and finally decided to reply to her:
Well then... I'll mercifully forgive you this time.
"..."
That evening, Zhang Jiye waited for Xu Chuwan downstairs.
Xu Chuwan quickly tidied herself up and went downstairs.
Upon seeing Zhang Jiye, Xu Chuwan jogged towards him.
Zhang Jiye tidied her hair, then ruffled it, and said casually, "You don't need to be so excited to see your boyfriend."
"..."
As the car drove along the road, Xu Chuwan asked Zhang Jiye, "Do you know who Cheng Junming's girlfriend is?"
Zhang Jiye shook his head and said, "I don't know, that kid won't tell me."
Zhang Jiye continued, "You know that?"
Xu Chuwan nodded.
Zhang Jiye asked, "Who is it?"
Xu Chuwan didn't want to tell him, and said, "Guess."
"..."
OK.
They arrived at the bar, and Xu Chuwan and Zhang Jiye got out of the car.
Zhang Jiye found the private room according to the address given by Cheng Junming.
As soon as he opened the door, Zhang Jiye saw Shen Yan.
Zhang Jiye immediately realized that Cheng Junming's girlfriend was Shen Yan.
Zhang Jiye glanced to the side and saw Lin Nianyu.
Zhang Jiye patted Lin Nianyu on the shoulder and said, "Brother, you're the only one who's single."
"..."
Zhang Jiye then added, "How about I introduce you to someone sometime?"
Lin Nianyu said unhurriedly, "No, I'm afraid all the ones you introduce to me will be bad."
"..."
Zhang Jiye then said to Cheng Junming, "You little rascal, you've been hiding your true colors quite well."
Cheng Junming raised an eyebrow and said, "What did I do now?"
Zhang Jiye said, "I really thought your boyfriend was Shen Yan."
Cheng Junming raised his chin and said, "Well, I'm at least a handsome guy, so what's so difficult about chasing a girl?"
Shen Yan's eyes immediately swept over, and she punched Cheng Junming, saying, "Shut up."
Cheng Junming immediately compromised: "Alright, alright, Your Majesty."
Zhang Jiye's words were equally merciless: "Finally, someone who can control you."
"..."
Cheng Junming scoffed and said, "What do you know? I'm just listening to my girlfriend, understand?"
Zhang Jiye said, "Oh, I really don't understand."
Then, as everyone gradually arrived, Cheng Junming began to say, "Brothers, friends, thank you for coming to celebrate the arrival of the super handsome Cheng Junming, who is no longer single!"
"..."
Zhang Jiye replied to him: "Wait a minute, don't be so narcissistic."
"..."
Shen Yan added, "Cheng Junming, you're so shameful."
"..."
dislike
This guy was even disliked by his girlfriend.
Cheng Junming looked at Shen Yan with a pitiful expression and said, "How can you be so disdainful of your boyfriend!"
"..."
Shen Yan didn't want to talk to this person anymore.
Shen Yan did not sit next to Cheng Junming, but sat next to Xu Chuwan.
Cheng Junming was displeased by this scene and questioned Shen Yan, "Why aren't you sitting next to me?"
Without even thinking, Shen Yan replied, "Because I have the right to freedom."
"..."
Xu Chuwan couldn't help but laugh as she listened to the conversation between these two clowns.
Because Xu Chuwan and Shen Yan were sitting together, Zhang Jiye couldn't sit with Xu Chuwan.
Zhang Jiye couldn't help but complain to Cheng Junming, "Can't you control your partner? I can't even sit with my Wanwan anymore, honestly."
"..."
Cheng Junming said, "I haven't even mentioned your partner yet! It's made it impossible for me to sit with my Chen Yan!"
"..."
Zhang Jiye and Cheng Junming successfully got into an argument.
"Why are you blaming my Wanwan?! It's clearly your partner's fault, okay?!"
"Why are you blaming my partner again?! It was clearly your partner who stole my place!"
"It's clearly your family's fault!"
"It's clearly your family's fault!"
"..."
childish
That's too naive.
Two immature "kids" are arguing.
Shen Yan's ears were about to explode from their noise. She said, "Cheng Junming, shut up! Why are you blaming Wanwan?"
"..."
Fine, I won't help your boyfriend.
The argument is finally over.
After Cheng Junming, Zhang Jiye, and a few of his buddies had drunk a few bottles of wine, Cheng Junming suggested, "How about we play Truth or Dare?"
Everyone agreed.
Cheng Junming asserted his dominance: "Since I'm treating today, I'll be the one to draw the numbers. Each of you will draw a number card, and whoever draws the same number as me will have to choose between Truth or Dare, one of the two."
No one objected, so the game began.
Cheng Junming was a little annoyed that he hadn't drawn Zhang Jiye at all: "Sigh, really, I haven't drawn Zhang Jiye even once in a single game."
"..."
At the start of this round, I drew Xu Chuwan.
Cheng Junming asked her, "Truth or dare?"
Zhang Jiye chimed in, "Cheng Junming, if you make things difficult for her, you're finished."
"..."
Cheng Junming immediately replied, "Understood."
Xu Chuwan thought for a moment and said, "Tell me the truth."
Cheng Junming thought for a moment and asked, "Who was the first person you liked? In other words, who was your first love?"
Xu Chuwan wasn't shy at all and said directly, "Zhang Jiye."
The rest of the people immediately started to cheer. Zhang Jiye's lips curled up slightly as he shouted, "Stop cheering, everyone. This girl is easily embarrassed."
"..."
In the next round, I unexpectedly drew Zhang Jiye.
Cheng Junming's eyes lit up immediately, and he grinned from ear to ear, saying, "Ha! Ha! Ha! I finally drew your name, Lao Zhang!"
Zhang Jiye glared at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense, I choose truth."
Cheng Junming thought for a moment and said, "What's your favorite day of the year?"
Cheng Junming thought Zhang Jiye would tell him his birthday, but he didn't.
Without even thinking, Zhang Jiye said directly, "October 9th."
Xu Chuwan was stunned.
October 9th—her birthday.
It was the day she was born and came into this world.
It turned out that Zhang Jiye's love for her had far exceeded her imagination.
After playing a few rounds, everyone dispersed and went home.
While Zhang Jiye was driving, Xu Chuwan couldn't help but ask him, "Does October 9th have any other meaning for you?"
Zhang Jiye smiled when he heard this.
He parked the car, turned to look into Xu Chuwan's eyes, and said in a low voice, word by word, "What do you think? What meaning does it have besides you?"
Xu Chuwan was stunned.
It really is because of her.
Zhang Jiye continued, "For me, your birthday is my favorite day because—your birthday is also the day you came into this world. Sometimes I'm quite grateful to Jiang Yan."
Xu Chuwan didn't understand what Zhang Jiye meant and asked him, "Why?"
This girl is pretty naive.
Zhang Jiye said with a smile, "I am grateful to her for bringing my Wanwan into this world, so I am especially grateful to her."
Xu Chuwan smiled too, lowered her head and whispered, "Ah, Ye."
Zhang Jiye didn't quite hear him and asked, "What did you call me?"
Xu Chuwan whispered in his ear, enunciating each word clearly: "Ah, Ye?"
Zhang Jiye's lips curled up sharply as he said, "Say it again."
Xu Chuwan turned her head away and said, "I won't call you that anymore."
Zhang Jiye pressed her head down, turned it around, moved closer to her, and said in a dangerous tone, "Are you sure you don't want to scream?"
Xu Chuwan also became arrogant: "You'll have to beg me."
Zhang Jiye got closer and closer to her, and Xu Chuwan realized the danger. She quickly said, "Ah...Ah Ye."
Zhang Jiye sneered and said, "Too late."
After saying that, Zhang Jiye didn't give her a chance at all. He pinned her against the car window, took her hands, and intertwined their fingers.
He then kissed her lips passionately, bit them slightly, and then released her.
Zhang Jiye looked at her red lips and was finally satisfied. He touched her lips with his finger and said, "This is the lesson you learned for not listening to me. The next lesson may be even more severe."
