Ning Shaobai looked at her disheartened expression, rubbed her head, and said with a smile, "What time do you finish? I'll pick you up."
"Actually, I can send a few back." Xia Mian raised her face and acted cute, hoping that he would let her go because she was cute.
Ning Shaobai smiled and touched the back of her head, but remained noncommittal about her answer. "Go ahead, have fun."
Sun Yuexin watched him leave and sighed, "Dr. Ning is so gentle and caring. I always thought he was a very cold person."
"Dr. Ning is obviously cold to others," Li Lizhen said, infatuated. "From now on, I'm going to look for a partner based on Dr. Ning's standards."
Zhao Cheng laughed and said, "Then I guess you'll never get married."
Li Lizhen kicked him angrily.
Zhao Cheng jumped away swiftly and laughed at Xia Mian again, "It's rare that you act like a mouse seeing a cat. Are you so afraid of Doctor Ning?"
You are really bringing up something that is not related to the topic!
Xia Mian glared at him, turned and walked into the restaurant and said, "Give me a bottle of beer!"
She decided to numb herself with alcohol!
Huh? That seems like a good way to get away. Given Dr. Ning's character, he definitely wouldn't attack a drunk!
Hahaha, she is so smart.
Half an hour later...
Xia Mian drank the last sip of beer in the glass with an expressionless face and confirmed one thing:
She can drink as much as she did in her previous life!!
After a bottle of beer, I felt nothing at all!
God wants to kill me!
It was almost ten o'clock when the restaurant was about to close, the party finally ended, and the classmates went home.
The monitor arranged for the boys to escort the girls home first. When it was Xia Mian's turn, Han Haoyan said, "Let me take her home. I'm on my way."
Xia Mian looked at the disappointed expressions of many girls and said with a smile, "I don't need to send you off."
Sun Yuexin also said, "Yes, if we really encounter danger, who knows who will protect whom?"
Li Lizhen said, "Is there any doubt about this? Of course it's Xia Mian who is protecting him!"
Zhao Cheng smiled and said, "That's right."
Han Haoyan said helplessly, "Hasn't she been drinking? She's still a girl after all."
"That little bit of wine is nothing," Xia Mian said depressedly, "It's almost like drinking water."
As soon as she finished speaking, a car stopped in front of them. Li Lizhen suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, no need to argue. Doctor Ning is here to pick up Xia Mian."
Xia Mian immediately leaned on her shoulder, unable to stand steadily, "Ah, I seem to be drunk, this alcohol has a strong aftereffect."
Zhao Cheng was puzzled, "Where does the beer have that kick?"
Xia Mian really wanted to step on him. Why didn’t she realize that he was so short-sighted before?
Ning Shaobai had already gotten out of the car and walked over. Looking at her, a smile flashed in his eyes. He reached out and took her over, saying, "Leave it to me."
"It's getting late. You should go back quickly and be careful on the road."
Sun Yuexin and Li Lizhen nodded quickly.
"Doctor Ning, you too."
Xia Mian was held in his arms, and when he got in the car, he pretended to be unsteady and walked to the back seat.
She even reached out to open the back door, but was pulled back by Ning Shaobai.
Seeing her pretending to be drunk and struggling, Ning Shaobai chuckled in her ear, "Or should I carry you to the car?"
Xia Mian looked as if he had just understood and got into the passenger seat very obediently.
Ning Shaobai fastened her seat belt and couldn't help but touch her head and smile, "Good girl."
After Ning Shaobai closed the car door, Xia Mian closed her eyes tightly, pretending to be a pile of mud that had been drunk by a bottle of beer.
Ning Shaobai started the car and said with a smile, "A drunk person never says he is drunk."
Xia Mian closed her eyes and was determined to cheat. So what if she was drunk? Could he still force her to sober up?
Ning Shaobai patted her head helplessly, said nothing, and concentrated on driving.
Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of Xia Mian's house.
The passenger seat slowly woke up from his sleep. "Are we there yet?"
She unbuckled her seat belt in a daze, and after making sure the car door could be opened, she rushed towards the door at lightning speed.
Then……
Xia Mian looked at the iron gate and with a "bang", he rushed to open the door with his head.
How could I forget that Xia Wenyue's family moved out, and only Xia Mian and Xiao Feng lived in the yard.
Because she knew she would be back late today, Xia Mian asked Ning Shaoyun to pick up Xiao Feng from Professor Zhu and sleep with Chenchen.
Probably because no one was at home, Xia Wenyue helped her lock the door at night.
Ning Shaobai locked the car calmly and walked over leisurely, finding her posture funny.
He reached out and rubbed her forehead and said, "Why did you hit the door? Does it hurt?"
Xia Mian pursed her lips and looked at him pitifully, "If it hurts, Doctor Ning, will you let me go?"
Ning Shaobai was amused by her, "Which one are you referring to?"
aestivation:……
She sighed deeply, took out the key from her bag with a sad face and opened the door.
When the lock opened, Ning Shaobai applauded her, "Even when drunk, she was able to find the keyhole right away. Amazing!"
Xia Mian ignored him. The moment he took off the padlock, his demeanor suddenly changed. He quickly pushed the door open a crack, crawled in, and turned around to close the door.
Xia Mian dared to guarantee that her movements would be fast enough, and if everything went well, she would definitely be able to keep Ning Shaobai out of the door.
However, who could have imagined that this broken door would fail at the critical moment. It wouldn't close!
Ning Shaobai looked at her and smiled, "Are you sober now?"
Xia Mian noticed that his posture was wrong, and when she looked down, she discovered that one of his feet had hit the door panel at some point.
aestivation:……
No wonder the door won't close.
Not only could it not be closed, but it also slowly, slowly opened under someone's arm strength...
Xia Mian turned around and ran away, and Ning Shaobai immediately followed him.
When she was trapped in the main hall, Xia Mian suddenly realized that something was wrong. There was no one in the entire courtyard. Wouldn't she be caught in a trap? It would be better to solve the problem outside!
She looked at Ning Shaobai breathlessly, "What are you chasing?"
Given his personality, he should have blocked her leisurely since she couldn't run away anyway.
He chased her like that, making her think that she could find a way to survive by running away.
Ning Shaobai held the door with both hands to block her way and said with a smile, "I see that you really want me to pursue you, so I'll respect you."
aestivation:……
There is really no villain worse than him.
"Ouch, ouch..." Xia Mian said, covering his head. "I ran too fast just now, and I feel dizzy... This alcohol has a strong aftereffect!"
Ning Shaobai chuckled and said nothing. He helped her sit on the sofa, turned around and got some water to wipe her hands and face.
I have to say that Dr. Ning is very good at taking care of people. The water temperature and strength are just right.
Xia Mian was taken care of very comfortably, and thought that if he just fell asleep like this, he would be able to escape the danger, right?
Just as she was about to doze off, Ning Shaobai, who was wiping her hands, suddenly spoke, "Gao Qiongying chased me to Shen City..."
Xia Mian opened his eyes immediately.
Seeing him looking at her with a smile, Xia Mian realized that she had been fooled by him again.
She took a deep breath. If she stuck her head out, she would get hurt. If she hid her head, she would get hurt too. She might as well just get it over with!
Xia Mian sat up immediately and took the initiative, "I saw everything today, you actually went to dinner with Gao Qiongying!"
"You were so close when we came out!" She stretched out her hand to indicate a distance of ten centimeters and demanded, "What happened to you in Shen City?"
Ning Shaobai listened to her nonsense without correcting her. He sighed and said, "Nothing happened. It's just that since I explained it to her, she has been clinging to me even more tightly."
"And..."
Xia Mian looked at him with burning eyes.
Ning Shaobai looked helpless, "You still say you don't believe I have someone I like."
"She said that as long as I was alone, she had the right to pursue me. She believed that she would be able to impress me one day."
Xia Mian glared.
Ning Shaobai washed the towel again and wrung it dry. He leaned over to help her wipe her face and sighed, "So I might need your help."
Xia Mian's wide eyes slowly narrowed, "When you say help, you don't mean for me to deal with her, do you?"
Ning Shao wiped her neck with the white towel and said with a smile, "That's not necessary. I can handle this little thing myself, but I need you to give me something."
Xia Mian grabbed his wrist, looked up at him warily, and asked, "What?"
I have a hunch that this is his ultimate move today.
Ning Shaobai let her hold him without moving, just lowered his eyes to look into her eyes.
The turbulent atmosphere suddenly became gentle, and all the vigilance and confrontation were gently smoothed out by something.
There was no trace of teasing in those peach blossom eyes that were filled with stars, but rather seriousness.
Xia Mian's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason, and then he heard the young man in front of him say softly, "Status."
"Mianmian." His tone was gentler than ever before.
For the first time, Xia Mian realized that her name, when spoken from someone's mouth, could be so powerful that it could drain all her strength.
The young man said with piety, "Give me a title."
"A title that can declare to the world that the rest of my life belongs only to you."
He leaned over and pressed down, resting his forearms on the back of the sofa behind her, as if holding her in his arms.
His voice was slightly hoarse, "A title that allows me to take care of you and hug you with a clear conscience."
"OK?"
Xia Mian swallowed unconsciously.
She always felt that their relationship was a natural progression, and because of her studies, she even had a clear timeline for when to confirm their relationship.
So there won’t be that kind of uncertain expectation and explosive joy when getting the results.
But when the moment really came, she found that she was wrong, and those known and certain things did not make her more calm.
Her hand was held by a hot palm and guided to press on the other person's chest. The sound of the heartbeat there was faster and stronger than any time she had touched it before.
The young man's voice was filled with irresistible temptation, "Mianmian, please?"
Xia Mian heard herself say, "Okay," as her heartbeats were almost the same as his.
This word seemed like some kind of magic, allowing Xia Mian to see flowers blooming.
The smile started from the corners of Ning Shaobai's eyes and eyebrows, and bloomed layer by layer. This young man who rarely showed any expression in front of outsiders smiled like the happiest child in the world.
Xia Mian also felt very happy, as if he was soaking in honey water, and his happiness was indescribable.
The body was suddenly hugged into the other person's arms.
A strong arm around her waist, a hot breath beside her ear. Xia Mian pressed herself against the young man's sturdy chest, and only then did she understand what he meant by "righteous and confident."
The previous just-right touches were all his restraint for her. This was the first real hug between them after she gave him the right.
A lover's hug is warm, sweet, and reassuring...
