"Bye-bye."

After dropping Zhou Fu off, He Sijiao continued in the taxi with Zhou Yu towards home.

Zhou Yu had probably drunk seven or eight bottles today and wasn't entirely clear-headed. So, He Sijiao had the driver take him home first.

However, upon arriving, she felt uneasy and helped him walk until they reached the entrance of his residential compound, "I can't go any further..."

What if they ran into his parents?

Although their relationship was clear, it wouldn't look good if I brought him back this late…

"Wait… let me buy you a drink," Zhou Yu said, rubbing his temples as she was about to leave.

"Huh?" He Sijiao didn't understand.

But without waiting for her agreement, Zhou Yu scanned a bottle of warm honey pomelo tea from a vending machine and handed it to He Sijiao.

"Oh, thank you."

"Do you want to… sit for a while?" Zhou Yu asked, looking at the bench next to the vending machine.

"I, I need to go home," He Sijiao explained, holding the honey pomelo tea with both hands, "It's getting late."

"Okay then."

Zhou Yu nodded and sat down on the bench himself.

"What's wrong? Did you cut ties with your family?"

Seeing that he hadn't gone inside, He Sijiao asked curiously.

"No way," Zhou Yu smiled and explained, "I'll get scolded if I go home this drunk. I'll just get some fresh air here and go back when I'm sober."

"Oh, I see."

Zhou Yu waved to He Sijiao, then lowered his head and started playing on his phone. Then, he noticed her legs under her skirt, next to his own.

He turned his head, and there was He Sijiao.

She was looking down, not saying a word.

"It's getting late…" Zhou Yu said, feeling dizzy, "You should go back."

"I…"

He Sijiao bit her lip and hesitated for a long while before saying, "I didn't say it before, but I didn't forget. When I got hit by the ball that time, you rushing up to fight Xu Chen was really cool… Even though I didn't see it, I imagined it. So, thank you."

He Sijiao said the long sentence very quickly.

After speaking, she closed her eyes.

Hoping to suppress all the embarrassment of the moment.

But it was difficult.

Her face turned red.

And why wasn't Zhou Yu saying anything?

Slowly, she turned her head to the side.

Then, she discovered that the guy had actually fallen asleep on the bench.

Sigh!

I rarely say thank you, and this guy just falls asleep like that?!

What does that mean!

Did he really not hear me?

"Zhou Yu? Zhou Yu?"

"I stole your phone."

"Chen Yuan plays better than you."

After saying those words, and Zhou Yu still didn't wake up, He Sijiao was sure that he was really asleep.

Honestly, if I knew you had such a low alcohol tolerance, I wouldn't have played dice with you.

Should I just leave him here then?

It's right in front of his apartment complex, so it should be fine.

He Sijiao reached into Zhou Yu's pocket and turned his phone to the loudest volume. She decided to call him in fifteen minutes to wake him up. By then, he should be sober enough to go home.

Then, she put Zhou Yu's backpack against him and wrapped the strap around his arm to prevent the 'educational book thief' from stealing it.

After a series of actions, He Sijiao was finally able to leave.

But as she stood up, she stopped in place again.

Looking at Zhou Yu, there was a faint scar on his face, a wound left from the fight with Xu Chen. Although this guy wasn't as tall as Chen Yuan, and he might not be as handsome… But those weren't the things she thought!

She just thought Zhou Yu, who fought Xu Chen for her, was very cool.

So, if anyone made fun of Zhou Yu for not being handsome, she would really get angry with them.

Clearly…

He's very handsome.

He Sijiao reached out a hand and waved it in front of Zhou Yu's face.

He still didn't even blink, sleeping very soundly.

So he really couldn't feel anything right now?

Gazing at Zhou Yu, He Sijiao gently pursed her lips, slowly lowered her head, and placed a soft touch on the side of his face.

Then she turned around and walked away.

A minute later, Zhou Yu opened his eyes and sat up straight on the bench.

He subconsciously wanted to touch it, but at the very last moment, his hand stopped.

Hovering above his cheek, not wanting to disturb the 'crime scene'.

He Sijiao's kiss really did kill Zhou Yu.

He had only pretended to be drunk today to have her take him home, just like Chen Yuan suggested.

But he didn't expect such a development!

First kiss…

My freaking first kiss!

But my first kiss hasn't been given out yet.

He Sijiao likes me, right?

Right?

Zhou Yu didn't know who he was asking, didn't know what answer he wanted, he didn't even know what he wanted to do!

He only knew that on a certain day in his second year of high school, a girl had placed her lips on his right cheek, leaving a permanent mark… that would never fade.

………

After getting off the subway, there was still a three-hundred-meter walk.

It was already past ten o'clock at night. The autumn night was chilly, and even Chen Yuan felt a bit cold. Xia Xinyu, wearing only a thin sweater, was forcing herself to appear calm.

So, Chen Yuan put down his backpack and handed it to Xia Xinyu.

While she was stunned, he took off his autumn school uniform and placed it in Xia Xinyu's hands, then took back his backpack.

"You should wear it, I'm wearing a sweater, I'm not cold…" Xia Xinyu waved her hand and said.

"Your sweater is just for show, it's not warm," Chen Yuan said, "Wear it, with your small build, you'll definitely catch a cold walking this distance."

"But you only have a summer school uniform…"

Xia Xinyu was more worried about Chen Yuan.

Until he placed his hand on her face, and the warmth spread, she had nothing to say.

"Your face is like an ice cream mochi, still acting tough?" Chen Yuan said with a slight tease, "I'm not like you, even vampires would… I think I've told this joke before. Anyway, my blood is always 37.5 degrees."

"That's a fever, right?"

"My blood temperature is a little high, it's reasonable."

Friends, do you know where the warmest place on the human body is?

That's right, it's the rectum, the normal temperature can reach 38 degrees Celsius.

Great, a reward for a cross-dresser.

"Then let's walk faster," Xia Xinyu said, "Don't catch a cold during this last bit."

"Okay, good."

So, the two of them quickened their pace towards home.

And Xia Xinyu, wearing his school uniform that almost reached her knees, with both hands hidden in the sleeves, was very cute as she swung her arms.

Next summer, I want to see Xia Xinyu sitting on the sofa in men's short sleeves watching TV.

I understand xps.

Well, I also understand Windows 7 and Windows 10.

In less than five minutes, the two returned to the apartment.

As he went back to his room, Chen Yuan reached out to Xia Xinyu for his uniform.

Xia Xinyu raised both hands, like a little ghost without hands, looked at some of the stains on the long sleeves, and asked, "You've never hand-washed before, have you?"

"There's a washing machine, because…"

"The washing machine can't get rid of these stains," Xia Xinyu shook her head, unable to look directly at it, then proactively said, "Leave it to me, I'll return it to you tomorrow after it's dried."

It's said that boys with girlfriends dress more neatly and appropriately.

If Chen Yuan doesn't change at all compared to before, then the one who loses face… is me.

"Thank you."

Chen Yuan gratefully clasped his hands, then turned around and reminded her before entering his room, "I made another key, so you can use the one under the mat at any time."

This was also for the sake of the dog. If anything happened to him, the dog could be taken care of.

"Okay, goodnight."

"Yeah, goodnight, Xinyu."

Thus, the two returned to their respective rooms.

The first thing Chen Yuan did after arriving home was put down his backpack, sit at the small table, turn on his phone, enter a chat group, and click on video call.

Then, five avatar frames appeared.

Zhang Chao, Liu Yan, Zhou Yu, Xu Junyi, Chen Yuan.

In front of each person were several bottles of beer and some snacks.

That's right, this is what men do.

When there are women around, it can be fun. But there's always a limit, like when you're thirsty and want to drink some alcohol, you'll be told, 'Honey, you've had a bit too much, come give me a hug.'

Therefore, the second half is the essence of the party.

"Wasn't Yu-zi drunk? How can he still join?" Chen Yuan teased.

"Drunk my ass, that was nothing," Zhou Yu said dismissively.

Just then, a dog suddenly ran into Chen Yuan's front camera.

"What a cute Shiba Inu, is it yours?" Zhang Chao asked.

"Yes, it is."

"Renting an apartment is great, you can even have a dog, I'm so jealous," Xu Junyi sighed.

"You want to rent an apartment just to have a dog? I think you want to… long censored sound here." Zhou Yu saw through the kid.

"Hey, you're misunderstanding me again," Xu Junyi said innocently, but the smugness of a popular guy was hard to hide.

"Right, I'll perform something for you guys."

Chen Yuan clapped his hands, and everyone stopped talking and looked at him.

Then, he suddenly said, "Zhou Yu."

"Huh? What…"

Before Zhou Yu could finish, the dog suddenly pounced on Chen Yuan and started licking him.

"Zhou Yu, sit down."

Then, the dog very obediently sat on the ground.

"Zhou Yu, go eat dog food!"

Then, the dog ran out of the frame and started devouring dog food like crazy.

"Hahahaha—"

Instantly, everyone in the video was amused.

The joyful atmosphere spread to every corner of Xia Hai.

Even Zhang Chao, who was usually serious, gave a thumbs up and praised, "Zhou Yu, good dog."

"I [BEEP] you, you [BEEP], you dog [BEEP]."

Faced with Zhou Yu's hysteria, red-faced. Chen Yuan said calmly, "Yu-zi, quiet."

Immediately, the Yu-zi eating dog food stopped his wild, open-mouthed way of eating and started chewing slowly.

"Yu-zi has some talent," Zhu Zihao nodded in agreement.

Then, everyone watched as Zhou Yu suddenly got up and ran away.

At the same time, a clear shout came.

"Mom, I want to have a dog!"

"I think you're like a dog!"

Even Zhou Yu, who couldn't even do a bad imitation, once again brought joy to his brothers in the video call.

After a few drinks, everyone's drinking speed gradually slowed down.

"It's strange, why isn't Tang Jian joining the video?" Liu Yan asked in confusion.

In the past, Tang Jian would always be there for these kinds of occasions, after all, a fun-loving person never misses out.

"He's probably messing around with Qiu Meng," Chen Yuan speculated.

"Tang Jian is probably going to fall," Zhu Zihao sighed, "As long as it's a girl, slightly good-looking, and主动主动主动then主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动主动
