Chapter 285 Will You Be Sad Too?
Shen Yanci glanced at her: "Is it not enough that I let you kiss me? Do I have to make you watch too?"

"..."

Qin Zhao looked at him with clear eyes for two seconds, then realized what was happening and decided to leave.

Shen Yanci pulled her back: "What do you want to do by following me?"

The smell of alcohol wafted through the air. Qin Zhao raised his eyelashes and frowned: "You've been drinking?"

Shen Yanci released his hand from her arm, creating some distance, and hummed in agreement.

Qin Zhao lowered her eyelashes and looked at him with pursed lips: "You seem a little unhappy right now."

He stood in the doorway, the light dimming, his face falling into shadow. He lifted his eyelids slightly and asked, "And then? Did you come here to make me happier or even more unhappy?"

His eyes narrowed at the corners, a hint of indifferent mockery in them.

What would make him happy? Whether she leaves or comes closer.

Qin Zhao looked at him. The song he had just sung seemed to mean that they were not destined to be lovers, but they had crossed the line of friendship.

The pain of ambiguity, vagueness, and entanglement.

She tentatively asked, "Were the songs chosen randomly?"

Shen Yanci half-closed his eyelids, and after a half-second, raised an eyebrow: "Otherwise what? I sang it for you?"

Qin Zhao didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or a sigh of relief upon hearing this answer. She pursed her lips and looked at him: "I felt a little sad when I listened to that song."

Shen Yanci's eyelids trembled slightly, and he looked at her with his dark eyes: "Do you feel sad too?"

Wasn't she always adept at navigating their relationship? Starting when she wanted to start, ending when she wanted to end.

His voice was low, but Qin Zhao felt a tightness in his chest, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.

Her eyes were clear and shallow, always looking so harmless.

One look at him and he was utterly defeated.

He called her: "Zhaozhao".

The long-awaited address almost made her heart flutter.

Shen Yanci chuckled self-deprecatingly, a glint of light in his eyes: "Am I going to lose again?"

Qin Zhao's heart felt like it was trapped in a tin box, throbbing with pain.

She looked up at him, her lips moved slightly, and she said softly, "Shen Yanci."

She lowered her head and fidgeted with her fingers.

Faint footsteps approached, and Kuang Xu's complaining voice drifted over: "Jiang Man is quite sweet-looking, but her singing is like a killer; it's deafening—"

The door opened, and Kuang Xu's face was still in a complaining state, but both of them froze when they saw the scene inside.

Kuang Xu said "Oh," and closed his eyes: "How come your eyes are blind too?"

"..."

Chen Yu looked at Shen Yanci, then at Qin Zhao, then back at Shen Yanci, and remained silent for half a second before asking, "Lin Shi isn't here, is he?"

Shen Yanci lifted her eyelids and glanced at him.

He looked at the two of them, who clearly seemed to be in trouble, and exclaimed, "What if I go blind too?"

Kuang Xu: "It's alright, our brains can sense direction."

They turned around together, arm in arm, like robots, and walked away like conjoined twins.

"..."

The space fell silent again, and Qin Zhao looked at Shen Yanci.

He glanced at her sideways: "You really want to see?"

"..."

Qin Zhao went out and considerately closed the door behind him.

After a while, a clear click came from behind.

"..."

Qin Zhao returned to the audio-visual room, and everyone's attention returned to karaoke, with the room filled with howling and screaming.

After Jiang Man finished singing in her loud, unrefined voice, she opened her eyes and saw Qin Zhao. She quickly went over to him and asked, "Did you succeed? Did you succeed?"

She looked at Qin Zhao's somewhat dejected face: "No way! He rejected me?"

Qin Zhao pursed his lips: "No, I didn't confess."

Jiang Man was confused: "Then why are you feeling down?"

"I..." Qin Zhao didn't know where to begin. She sensed that Shen Yanci seemed to be in pain because he had developed feelings for her. Was that song about regret, giving up, or wanting to start over?

Jiang Man exclaimed, "Trust me, it's guaranteed to succeed!"

Someone sat down next to them, and Jiang Man patted her hand: "There's no rush today, I'll help you figure things out tomorrow. You won't even need to take the initiative, he'll confess to you."

Lin Shi's melancholy wasn't feigned at all; it later transformed into a dynamic song.

Qin Zhao was annoyed by the noise, and Shen Yanci hadn't returned either.

She couldn't listen anymore and pushed open the door to go back to her room.

By sheer coincidence, they bumped into Shen Yanci, who was returning home.

Shen Yanci glanced at her: "Not playing anymore?"

Qin Zhao hummed in agreement: "It's a bit noisy."

She paused for a moment, then said, "It's okay to stay a little longer."

Do you still sing?

Shen Yanci closed his eyelids slightly: "I'm not singing anymore, come up and get your phone."

Qin Zhao said "oh" and gave him the seat.

Shen Yanci thought she would wait for him, but when he came out, there was no one in the corridor.

"fraud."

He sighed again after he finished speaking. She hadn't lied to him at all.

Did she say she would wait for him?
He walked into the living room with straight lips and a taut jaw.

Qin Zhao paused for a moment.

Seeing that his expression wasn't good, Qin Zhao handed him another box of medicine: "Is it serious?"

Shen Yanci lowered his eyes. The main indication on the box was clearly written in two large characters: diarrhea.

"..."

"Take one pill if it's not serious, take two if it's serious," Qin Zhao said patiently. "Take two pills."

Shen Yanci raised an eyebrow and looked at her: "When did I have diarrhea?"

Qin Zhao paused for a moment, then asked innocently, "Are you constipated?"

"..."

Shen Yanci seemed to laugh out of anger: "Do I have to be sick?"

"Then what were you doing in the toilet for so long?"

"Were you squatting at the door watching me?"

"..."

Chen Yu's phone fell to the ground with a thud, unintentionally attracting the attention of two people.

He closed his eyes and touched his phone: "My ears are deaf too."

He couldn't find it for a long time, so Qin Zhao couldn't bear to watch and picked up the phone for him.

Chen Yu took it, took two steps, then turned back and gave her a thumbs up: "You're the one who's always giving strong kisses."

"..."

Qin Zhao brought the medicine back and handed him some warm water: "Have some water."

She returned to her room, lay down on the bed, and all she could hear was Shen Yanci singing "Fingerprints." She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Does Shen Yanci have a crush on her?

She searched online for the meaning of the song and found that there were roughly five interpretations: the regret of "almost meeting", growth, even if the relationship ends, the love will still leave a deep mark on the heart, love and pain coexisting, questioning the past and being confused about the future.

After staying up all night, Jiang Man slept until the afternoon, and only then did he remember to help Qin Zhao pursue someone.

The day before she left, she invited Qin Zhao to a live house.

When Qin Zhao saw the location she sent, he remembered the bar where she had booked the male model last time, and his eyelids twitched: "Forget it, I'm still pursuing someone."

Jiang Manmin retorted, "What are you thinking? This is a proper live house."

Qin Zhao figured she was leaving tomorrow anyway, so he let her be: "Won't this make your flight tomorrow too late?"

"No," Jiang Man waved his hand dismissively. "At worst, we can just reschedule."
