Chapter 66: Moonlight Memories

After the carnival, there was only a pile of garbage left. Just taking the garbage out was annoying enough. She didn't notice that the garbage she was carrying was drinks, so she just put it next to the trash can and left.

Shen Xinghe took out a piece of paper from his pocket and stuck it on the lid, which read: ? There is glass inside, be careful with your hands.

What a sweet guy! I've lived next door to him for so many years, but I never realized he had such thoughts. "Are you always like this?"

"It's just a piece of cake." He also put the bag of garbage next to it, in a conspicuous place.

"Let's go for a walk?" Shen Xinghe asked.

"Okay~" After eating, we did some exercise. It happened that the moonlight was bright tonight, and it was just like daytime.

The two walked quietly. The neighborhood was so quiet that they could hear the sound of their footsteps hitting the stones.

"Your..."

"I said..."

They spoke at the same time. Lin Shuliang pulled a leaf and played with it in her hand. "You go first. What is that?"

"I mean, are you sure about your wish?"

"If there's no big change, I think it should be 80%." Lin Shuliang jumped around, playing with shadows. "By the way, I don't know where you applied, but it must be the key point."

“Yeah, but I also applied to University A.”

"University A is good at arts and slightly better at liberal arts. Why did you apply for it? Are you stupid? The math teacher in your class will definitely say that it was me who persuaded you to apply for University A." She was still brooding over the matter of inviting parents.

Shen Xinghe put his hands in his pockets, turned to look at her with a smile, "This is a solution. If I'm accidentally admitted to University A, I'll say it's your fault."

"Don't..." Lin Shuliang put one hand on her waist and stretched out the other hand to express her refusal, "I can't bear this responsibility. But seriously, you have so many options with your score, why do you have to fill in A?"

Shen Fangzhong also asked him this question when he was filling out his application form.

His father respected him and did not interfere too much, but he still found it strange why he filled in A University.

He did not answer. This was neither honorable nor rational.

A University is weak in science and engineering, but he wanted to give it another try for Lin Shuliang, so he put A University as his second choice. If he was accepted, it would mean that they were destined to be together. In this way, he would be worthy of his feelings.

"Hey, I have a question for you!" Lin Shuliang waved her hand in front of him.

He subconsciously pressed her hand down and said, "Stop it, I'm thinking about something."

His hands were cool, which felt very comfortable to touch in the summer, and his fingers were long, so they completely wrapped Lin Shuliang's hands.

Lin Shuliang took her hand back and looked at the sky. "Let's go back. I don't want to leave. I'll go to your room and bring Lai Fu home."

Shen Xinghe folded his empty hands and put them back in his pocket. "Why don't you just buy another dog and name it Wangcai?"

"No, don't you remember that I was bitten by a dog when I was a child? I am most afraid of dogs." Lin Shuliang felt terrible just thinking about it.

She was bitten by a dog when she was in sixth grade because of Shen Xinghe.

They were in the same class at the time, and the teacher organized everyone to go to the park to play. In the park, there were many people walking their dogs, but some of the dogs did not have leashes.

Shen Xinghe was running around with other boys and somehow attracted a dog, which chased them. Shen Xinghe was so scared that he hid in a corner and dared not come out.

Lin Shuliang went to look for him and happened to run into the dog and was bitten. Fortunately, it was not serious, and the wound was cleaned and vaccinated.

It was also from that time that Shen Xinghe became very familiar with how to deal with these emergency situations.

"In the end, it's all your fault!" Lin Shuliang added.

"I have nothing to repay you with, so I pledge my love to you?" He said in a joking tone.

"No! I cannot accept your fickle temper."

"My dad always says I don't have mood swings," he defended.

"That's because Uncle Shen doesn't understand you! Think about what happened today. I just said 'brother' and you replied viciously: Who is your brother?" She imitated him very well.

Shen Xinghe laughed, and stretched out his long arm to pick her up. "Your imitation ability is good, but you should go back quickly. Lai Fu is hungry."

"I understand the truth, but can you please let me go?"

"No." Shen Xinghe acted like a rogue, showing his big white teeth.

"Shen Xinghe! You're pressing on my hair! If you don't let me go, I'll fight you."

"Let me give you a hand."

“…”

The laughter of the two people kept echoing and scattering, becoming precious fragments of memory, embedded in each other's memories.

Surprises always come unexpectedly. Lin Shuliang received an acceptance letter just after practicing basic skills at the door, but it was not hers, but Shen Xinghe's.

The courier kept ringing the doorbell. Lin Shuliang walked over and said, "Give it to me. I'll pass it on."

The courier still called Shen Xinghe to confirm, and only after he agreed did the courier let her sign.

The sender's address was F University. Lin Shuliang was overjoyed and called Shen Xinghe, "You've been accepted. The admission letter from F University has been sent!"

As if this was not his acceptance letter, but Lin Shuliang's, he replied casually, "Leave it with you, I'll come get it later."

"You don't even show any joy?"

"I filled out the application form. It was either my first or second choice. It's not surprising."

What a person with no taste for life. Lin Shuliang gave a flattering smile, "Can I tear it down? F University is a university that I couldn't get into no matter how hard I tried. I will be satisfied after seeing the admission letter."

"Well, I'm hanging up first."

There was a busy tone on the other end before Lin Shuliang reacted. Good guy, you are really calm!

The admission letter from F University is really artistic, high-end and classy!

She watched it over and over for a long time, muttering to herself, "When will my A-student come?"

The admission time was different, so she waited for several more days and finally got her chance.

Fortunately, my wish came true.

The Lin family was celebrating Lin Shuliang's admission letter, while the Shen family's father and son were sitting quietly.

They had just returned from the Lin family, and Shen Fangzhong probably guessed why Shen Xinghe chose A University as his second choice.

Shen Fangzhong opened a bottle of red wine and took two glasses. "Would you like some?"

This was the first time his father formally invited him to drink. He nodded, "A little bit."

They sat on the balcony. Shen Fangzhong treated him as a mature man, not a child. He took a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to him. Seeing that he didn't take it, he said, "I don't know how many times I have seen cigarette butts in your room. Don't say you don't know how to say such things."

He really respected Shen Xinghe and without blame, he believed in his son's self-control.

"I don't want to smoke." Shen Xinghe shook the red wine in the glass and took a sip.

"I see you are not very happy after receiving the admission letter from University F. Since you want to go to University A more, why don't you put it as your first choice?"

Shen Xinghe put the cup down. "I've thought about whether I should stay with her forever or become a better person near her. I didn't accept the adjustment at F University. The majors I applied for are all the best. My scores are very high."

"So you let fate decide?" Shen Fangzhong puffed out smoke and did not forget to drink.

"Yeah." Shen Xinghe finished the wine in the glass. "Actually, I can accept any result, but I still feel a little bit... unwilling."

He stood up and patted Shen Xinghe on the shoulder. "You have to take responsibility for your own choices. Son, you have really grown up."

The moonlight was still as beautiful as it was that day when they were walking...

Luo Yun was also admitted. Her score was good enough for University A, and she obeyed the adjustment. Although she didn't get the major she wanted to study, it wasn't much different. She was already very happy to be admitted to University A.

No matter what, I have to treat Lin Shuliang to dinner.

"Luo Yun, what a generous gesture! Lu Xue invited us to dinner here last time."

"Who is Lu Xue?"

She hadn't told Luo Yun about this yet. "A friend."

"Okay. Hurry up and leave. That's enough for today. You don't know, my relatives and friends were so excited when they found out that I got into University A that they almost set off firecrackers. Do you know what I've been doing at home these few days?"

"What?"

Luo Yun smiled mysteriously, "Take the money! Haha..."

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the private room they had booked.

"You will have to pay for what you have done. You may be happy now, but you will have to pay for it when you graduate from college."

"No matter what, I just have the mentality that if life is good, you should enjoy it to the fullest, and if you lose all your money, you can get it back again."

"..."Since she was enjoying herself, there was no need to correct her ancient poetry.

"That's enough, that's enough. The two of us can't eat so much!" Lin Shuliang was too late to stop her, she kept ordering dishes.

She was done.

The dishes came, she poured some wine, and stood up and raised it, "Shuliang, whether you believe it or not, I am really grateful to you. If you hadn't encouraged me and helped me all the time, I would not have been admitted to A University. I might have just studied in Yuncheng and lived a dull life. I still remember what you said to me that time."

"You really want to drink. Why are you saying all this? Sit down quickly." He was still not used to her formal manner.

Luo Yun refused to listen and continued, "You are my noble lady."

Lin Shuliang smiled and crossed her legs. "Okay, do you really want to thank me?"

"Yeah!" she nodded.

"Then call daddy and let me hear it." She pretended to be a gangster.

Luo Yun laughed, "Fuck you, Master!"

"This is how we can have a good meal." Lin Shuliang picked up the chopsticks confidently, "We don't need those polite words. Come on, new alumni, let's toast to our upcoming college life!"

They probably didn't notice that it was white wine, so they actually drank half a cup. It didn't seem like a big deal at first, but gradually they started to feel dizzy.

"Don't turn the table yet, let me pick up the food." Luo Yun held the chopsticks but couldn't pick up the food for a long time. He thought it was Lin Shuliang who turned the table.

She giggled beside me, "You're drunk! I didn't turn, hahahaha..."

"I'm not drunk, you're...drunk."

Even if they drank, it was just a little beer, they had never drunk so much liquor. But when they got drunk, they started to make trouble, and even had a drinking contest to see who could drink more.

They pressed the service button and the waiter came running. He saw the mess inside but quickly calmed down and said, "Hello, how can I help you?"

Lin Shuliang raised her phone and said, "This phone keeps crashing. I can't make a call. Please help me call Shen Xinghe and ask him...hiccup~ to pick me up and take me home."

"Okay, wait a moment."

The waiter looked at the two drunk girls and felt sympathy for the brother whom he had never met before.
