Chapter 316 Let's keep our voices down (Revised)

Jiang Man immediately perked up: "What's wrong with Shen Yanci?"

"..."

"No." Qin Zhao shifted her gaze and pursed her lips. "Do you remember my roommate?"

"Which roommate?" Jiang Mantian had too many gossip stories to remember right away.

"It's the one I met after breaking up with my boyfriend."

Jiang Man vaguely remembered this incident and suddenly realized: "That girl who regretted dumping her ex-boyfriend!"

"..."

Her eyes lit up, and she sat up: "What did that sister do this time?"

“She didn’t do anything.” Qin Zhao lowered his eyelids. “They’ve made up.”

"I knew it."

"But her boyfriend is really strange."

"Huh?" Jiang's mind raced with a bunch of gossipy possibilities, and she asked excitedly, "What's so strange about it?"

"They were in a long-distance relationship, and everything was fine. After they met during the summer vacation, they were separated for a while, and when they met again, her boyfriend suddenly became very strange."

"Break up? She dumped him again?"

"..."

"No, she went somewhere else."

"Oh, what's so strange about it?"

"Suddenly bite her."

"..." Jiang Man looked at her expressionlessly, somewhat speechless, "Are you sure it was a bite and not a kiss?"

"Honey... I guess they all are. Anyway, they're pretty fierce and they give you attitude for no reason."

Jiang Man made a pause gesture and said confidently, "No need to say anything more, I've already made the diagnosis."

"?"

Has any outstanding potential partner appeared in your roommate's life?

Qin Zhao paused for a moment, then shook his head: "No."

“No!” Jiang Man raised her voice, frowning. “How could that be?”

"Really, no." Qin Zhao's eyes were clear and shallow. "Isn't it particularly strange?"

"Could it be that your roommate has it, but she overlooked it?"

Qin Zhao shook his head: "Nothing has changed around her."

"That's a bit strange." Jiang Man placed her hand under her chin. "Is there anything else that's strange?"

Qin Zhao lowered his eyelids: "But it only lasted a while, and then he was normal again. He was watching a movie with my roommate, and he kissed my roommate in the middle, and also kissed her neck. My roommate was a little... anyway, she pushed him away and then cried. He tried to comfort her at first, but after the movie, he suddenly became very quiet."

“My roommate asked him if he was angry, and he said no. Then he went back to work. It’s really strange. He used to keep us informed beforehand, but now he doesn’t. He’s also rude on the phone, like he’s not happy, but then he’s fine again.”

"What's so strange about that?" Jiang Man sipped her juice with the air of someone drinking alcohol. "They're just sexually frustrated."

"Ok?"

"It's because he wants to have sex, but your roommate doesn't."

“My roommate said he said he just wanted to kiss her.”

"You believe what men say?"

"..."

Qin Zhao cracked his knuckles: "Then what about my roommate?"

"If her boyfriend tries to force her into submission through passive-aggressive behavior, and then becomes sarcastic and cynical after being rejected, revealing his true male nature, then just say goodbye to that kind of man." Jiang Man waved her hand.
"If he's just not in a good mood and your roommate still wants to continue talking, give him some time to reflect on his actions."

"Reflect?"

“Just let him calm down.” Jiang Man paused for a moment. “Your roommate has a history of dumping her boyfriend, so he probably thinks your roommate doesn’t like him anymore.”

Jiang Man looked into her clear eyes and leaned closer, asking, "How far have things progressed between you and Shen Yanci?"

"..."

"Why are you talking about us?" Qin Zhao cracked his knuckles. "We're doing fine."

Jiang nodded meaningfully: "I know you two are doing well. Shen Yanci didn't treat you..."

She gazed at her suggestively, "Hmm~"

Qin Zhao blocked her view with a cushion: "No."

"That can't be right," Jiang Man thought for a moment, "Isn't Shen Yanci suitable?"

Qin Zhao lowered his eyelashes: "Does it have to be like that?"

Jiang Manyu was speechless: "It depends on the person."

She paused for a moment: "But I feel these things are inseparable." "Are you really still so pure even now?"

"Forgive me, I am an American student."

"..."

When Qin Zhao video-called Shen Yanci, she mentioned the second project and said that Shen Yanci would be very busy these next few days.

Shen Yanci: "My girlfriend is so amazing, what kind of gift would you like?"

Qin Zhao shook his head, then paused and looked at him: "Shen Yanci."

Her voice was soft.

"I don't want to argue with you."

Her eyes were light and her lips were slightly pursed.

Shen Yanci's fingers curled slightly, and his voice lowered: "We didn't quarrel."

Qin Zhao was silent for half a second, then hummed in agreement.

Shen Yanci looked at her for a while: "I'll go back the day after tomorrow."

"Isn't it supposed to take a week?"

"I miss my girlfriend." Shen Yanci closed his eyes briefly. "If she doesn't miss me, I'll go back later."

"..."

When Shen Yanci returned, Qin Zhao bought a bouquet of flowers to pick him up.

He looked at her and the flowers in his arms, and raised an eyebrow: "Aren't you very busy?"

"I miss my boyfriend," Qin Zhao retorted. "If he doesn't want to, I'll be going now."

Shen Yanci pulled her closer, looking down at her: "Did you really miss me?"

Qin Zhao hummed in agreement: "I've thought about it."

Shen Yanci pulled her into his arms, buried his head in her shoulder, and breathed in her scent. After a long while, he said in a muffled voice, "Don't lie to me."

Qin Zhao didn't hear clearly and turned his head slightly: "What?"

Shen Yanci raised his head and kissed her cheek: "I heard you."

They looked at each other for a few seconds, then smiled inexplicably.

Shen Yanci took her hand and walked towards the parking lot.

There was no partition in the car; Uncle Li was driving.

He looked at Qin Zhao, who was very tactful, and said, "I brought you a gift. Come and get it from me in a bit."

"it is good."

Qin Zhao went to his house with him: "What gift?"

Shen Yanci lifted his eyelids slightly and looked at her: "Me."

"..."

His eyes darkened: "Didn't you miss me?"

Qin Zhao's eyelids twitched.

She pursed her lips, pushed him into the chair, and kissed him.

Just as Shen Yanci was about to make a move, she pressed her hand on his arm and called out, "Shen Yanci!"

She said softly, "I like you."

Shen Yanci's eyes darkened slightly.

After Qin Zhao finished speaking, he dodged away in a flash.

They tried to slip away but failed.

In a dizzying moment, his wrist was gripped, and he was sitting on his lap.

"..."

Enveloped in his scent, Qin Zhao's face flushed, and her toes curled up. She struggled to get up, but he held her firmly in his grasp: "What are you doing?"

Shen Yanci glanced at her: "You flirted and then ran away? You can push me down, but I can't pull you up?"

Qin Zhao: "I was wrong."

"What's wrong with you kissing me?" Shen Yanci's gaze lingered on her face.

"Let go of me." Qin Zhao panicked a little. "Uncle Li is still waiting for me outside."

Shen Yanci lowered his voice: "Then let's keep it down."

"..."

　I've revised the ending; I didn't want it to become too angsty later, so I made some changes. I'm experiencing writer's block, so I'll be posting it late.
