Xu Zhi was stunned, somewhat surprised by what just happened before his eyes.
So does Chen Yao.
They all looked forward at the same time, and the road that was pitch black just now had indeed become bright.
Along the entire road, soft lights spread out one after another.
It is precisely because of the contrast with the darkness just now that the brightness now seems particularly clear and eye-catching.
Normally, the street lights that one would never look up and notice, at this moment, were like spectators, lighting up at the same time to cheer for what Chen Yao had just said.
It was like some kind of revelation, foreshadowing a bright future ahead and giving a shot of confidence to the determination in their hearts.
This is too... bizarre.
However, the good times only lasted a few seconds.
The system's humble voice begging for mercy from the rules appeared in Shen Yao's ears: "Ah - stop shocking me - please - please let me go -"
It just wanted to follow the trend, so it used some props to light up all the faulty street lights on an entire road. However, it was discovered by the rules and was soon punished with an electric shock.
Operations like this are not allowed in places where humans gather. Once discovered according to the rules, the offender will be punished with electric shocks.
Chen Yao clicked her tongue: "Xiao Tongzi, you..."
System: "Master, I just want to be cool."
Chen Yao: "It's okay, it's pretty cool."
System: “Hey hey?????????”
Even if I get electrocuted, it's worth it.
Xu Zhi slowed down the car and thought about what Chen Yao had just said.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt...
"Chen Yao..." He gripped the steering wheel tightly, his voice tightening, "The partner you just mentioned..."
Hearing this, Chen Yao smiled, her elbows resting on the edge of the car window, looking at him freely and casually, "Who else could it be?"
"It's you, Xu Zhi," she said.
At this moment, Xu Zhi only felt as if something invisible was quickly taking root, sprouting, and then blooming in his heart.
Among the emotions, the first thing that comes up is a feeling of fullness and sourness, followed by being moved, and finally a hint of sweetness with a lingering aftertaste.
He never knew that human emotions could be so changeable and rich in a short period of time. He also never knew that in the case of extreme joy, the sour feeling would become more entangled, blocking his heart and making him unable to say a word.
He wanted to ask Chen Yao: Is everything she said true?
I also want to ask her: Why are you willing to help him?
I even wanted to ask her: Will you completely forget what you said after you sober up?
But at this moment he couldn't ask a single question.
The night wind blew in slowly from the open car window, as if bringing Xu Zhi back to the early morning when he first met Shen Yao. In fact, at the moment when she knocked him down, he had vaguely thought that it would be nice if this person was of the same kind as him, or even just a friend.
After a moment, he finally spoke slowly: "Thank you, Chen Yao."
Thank you for your existence, your appearance, and your stay.
He felt a tingling sensation in his heart.
…
After returning home, Chen Yao felt that her drunkenness had basically dissipated, probably because of the wind along the way.
But before going upstairs, Xu Zhi still made her a cup of honey water and watched her drink it.
Chen Yao just felt guilty. How did he guess that she would quietly not drink?
But there's nothing I can do. It's right under someone's nose, and it's brewed by them personally with love, so I'll just... drink a few sips for their own good intentions.
After putting down the cup, she was about to say goodbye to him and go upstairs when she was stopped again.
"You don't have to get up early tomorrow. You can sleep as late as you want," he said.
It’s like listening to heavenly music and having ears suddenly cleared!
It is good to go to bed early and get up early, but it is also happy to go to bed early and get up late occasionally.
Chen Yao's eyes lit up instantly and she nodded quickly.
However, before going up, she confirmed with him one last time: "Is everything really alright? I'll go back to my room then."
Xu Zhi: "Well, nothing happened. You can go back. You've been tired all day. Have a good rest tonight."
Chen Yao smiled and said, "Okay, you too."
