Oh no! Drunk last night, I accidentally wandered into my ex-boyfriend's room.

Dinner ended quickly.

Aunt Zhou and Xu Wan chatted for so long that they held hands and wished they could talk for several more nights.

"Little sister Qianqian," Wen Shuyan stood up and walked to Lin Qian, but kept a proper distance, "Let's add each other on WeChat. If anything comes up in the future, we can chat."

Under the kind gaze of the two elders.

Lin Qian nodded and scanned his QR code with her phone.

With a "beep", the friend request was approved.

"If you ever need any help in the future, feel free to come to me." Wen Shuyan's voice was gentle, and his smile was still as warm and comforting as I remembered. "We should still be good friends, right?"

Lin Qian: "Yes, we're friends."

When she was in elementary and middle school, Wen Shuyan helped her a lot, teaching her how to do her homework and bringing her delicious food.

Back then, there was a boy in town who always bullied her and tore her braids.

It was Wen Shuyan who stood in front of her and stood up for her.

As her childhood memories gradually came together, Lin Qian couldn't help but sigh...

the next table.

Xiao Si was now drenched in sweat.

He suddenly remembered something and said, "Brother Lu, do you remember that time we played Truth or Dare? Lin Qian said her ideal type is gentle..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Lu Beiting's fingers tighten slightly as he gripped the glass, his eyes suddenly darkening, his deep pupils seeming to have become even darker, devoid of any light.

Xiao Si's heart skipped a beat: Oh no.

The man in front of Lin Qian is much more competitive than the male college student Song Yu from before.

Gentle and refined, they seem like a perfect match no matter how you look at it.

-

As Lin Qian and her group walked out of the restaurant, night had fallen, and the leaves of the surrounding sycamore trees rustled in the evening breeze.

Aunt Zhou suggested enthusiastically, "I heard there's a new shopping mall nearby? Shall we go check it out together? We've got nothing else to do anyway."

"Okay, okay," Xu Wan quickly agreed with a smile, "It's perfect, I haven't been out in a long time."

Wen Shuyan nodded slightly: "Okay."

Just then, Lin Qian's phone vibrated, receiving a pinned WeChat message.

Lu Beiting: [Turns around]

It was just two words, but they carried an undeniable force; you could feel the oppressive atmosphere even through the screen.

Lin Qian turned around almost instinctively.

I spotted the tall figure hidden in the shadow of the pillars at a glance.

How did he end up here?

Lu Beiting was extremely tall and was casually leaning against the wall with his long legs crossed. His posture seemed lazy, but it exuded a tense tension.

The distance was quite far, and Lin Qian couldn't see the specific expression on his face, but that deep and cold aura faintly wafted through the noise, making her inexplicably feel that he seemed to be in a very bad mood.

"Qianqian, what are you looking at?" Xu Wan patted her shoulder. "Want to go shopping together?"

"No need, Auntie," Lin Qian said quickly, turning her gaze away. "I suddenly have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. You two have fun."

After saying that, she turned around and walked quickly toward the shadows.

"Lu Beiting," Lin Qian stopped in front of him, looked up at him with a puzzled expression, "what are you doing here?"

"Having dinner with Xiao Si." Lu Beiting looked down at her, his tone as calm as if discussing the weather, then casually changed the subject, "Who was that guy standing next to you just now?"

Lin Qian: "I told you before, Brother Shuyan, he was my neighbor when I was a child."

Shuyan-ge.

They called each other so affectionately.

A crack finally appeared on Lu Beiting's nonchalant calm. A cold smile curved his lips, and the nameless, burning jealousy that had been simmering in his chest all night seemed to have found a way out, slowly gnawing away at his reason.

He suddenly reached out and pulled Lin Qian to the corner of the wall. His warm palm pressed against the wall behind her, while his other arm tightly encircled her waist like an iron hoop, trapping her between her body and the wall, making her unable to move.

"Lu Beiting..." Lin Qian pressed her back against the cool wall, her hands instinctively clinging to his strong shoulders, her voice tinged with uncertainty, "Aren't we... going home?"

Go home? What's the point of going back?

My house is about to be robbed.

Lu Beiting's eyes were dark as he leaned down and whispered in her ear, his voice seductive and wild:

"Little sister Qianqian..."

The voice was a little hoarse, but carried a burning heat, slowly seeping into my ears.

Lin Qian's heart skipped a beat, her ears instantly went numb, and she said in a muffled voice, "Why are you calling me that...?"

"Why can other men call me that, but I can't?"

Lu Beiting grabbed Lin Qian's chin, forcing her to lift her face and look directly into his eyes, which were churning with dark emotions. "I'm not happy."

"Is it because of Wen Shuyan?"

"Yes," Lu Beiting admitted frankly, repeating it once more, his voice tinged with a rare, almost stubborn, sense of grievance, "Baby, I'm not happy."

For some reason... Lu Beiting is like a big, out-of-control dog that needs to be coaxed, and he also has a resentment about being abandoned by his owner.

You have to coax him and go along with his wishes.

Otherwise, it would be Lin Qian's waist that suffers tonight.

Lin Qian sighed softly, cupped his face in her hands, and said earnestly:

"Lu Beiting, I haven't seen him for ten years."

"Wen Shuyan and I grew up together. I've always treated him like an older brother next door. He has never had any romantic feelings for me."

Lu Beiting scoffed coldly, "How do you know he doesn't have those kinds of feelings for you?"

Lin Qian: "In junior high school, we made a promise to take the entrance exam for Beijing No. 1 High School together. But that summer, he suddenly disappeared and moved away, without leaving me a single letter."

They just disappeared without a trace.

Without any explanation, they left without saying goodbye.

She went to study in the UK.

In fact, if Lin Qian wanted to contact him, she could have found a way to do so, but she stubbornly waited for him to take the initiative to contact her.

She was naturally angry when the other party broke the agreement.

As time went by, I gradually let go of the past. Perhaps the other person did have some urgent matter or something difficult to say, or perhaps I wasn't as important as I thought.

In short, he's just a passerby in my life now.

Lu Bei's expression remained tense, showing no sign of softening, as he stubbornly repeated:

"I'm still not happy."

Why?

"Because you still call him Brother Shuyan."

Lin Qian: "I got used to calling you that when I was little."

"hehe."

Lu Beiting sneered, then narrowed his eyes dangerously, his voice carrying a hint of barely perceptible hostility and possessiveness.

"I just warned one 'green tea' younger brother, and now another 'green arrow' older brother has appeared. Lin Qian, you're really something."

"I... um!"

Before Lin Qian could explain anything, the man grabbed the back of her head and kissed her forcefully...
