Shu Ran couldn't pretend any longer; she turned her face away, refusing to look at him. The elders from both families assumed the two were just having another quarrel. Deep down, she wanted to break through that wall between them, but he was unwilling. So, she decided not to continue this ambiguous situation.
Grabbing Yun Li by the neck in a big sisterly manner, Shu Ran declared, "From now on, I'm staying with you to avoid retaliation from that guy." Neither of them could cook, so they had been relying on takeout. That evening, Shu Ran dragged Yun Li to a bar for some dancing.
Yun Li wore a long down jacket over her outfit. Once they arrived at the bar and she took off her coat, she revealed a beautiful White Knitted Mini Skirt underneath. Her delicate collarbone and a generous expanse of skin were exposed.
Several friends had gathered to have fun together. Yun Li was already accustomed to this lively atmosphere, chatting and laughing with others. She had lost some of her youthful innocence from her school days but gained a touch of mature charm, all while maintaining an air of coolness that made her even more captivating.
With her hair cascading down, she sipped her drink gently while Shu Ran entered the dance floor and began to lose herself in the music, feeling completely at ease. A few booths away sat a man illuminated by colorful lights, which only deepened his mysterious aura. His features were somewhat obscured, but he exuded a low-pressure presence in a black turtleneck sweater, legs crossed as he sat there. A pair of silver-rimmed glasses rested on his nose, giving him an air of cultured arrogance.
The arrogance and coldness in his eyes made him seem even more untamed. He glanced down at his phone to check a message before putting it away and raising his glass to clink with someone nearby, downing the drink in one go. His Adam's apple bobbed as he tilted his head back slightly, causing many women present to feel their hearts flutter.
Qin Nianzhe soon arrived and sat next to Jiang Shiyu, pouring himself some drinks while loudly asking in Jiang Shiyu's ear, "Why come to such a noisy place?" Jiang Shiyu replied with just one word: "Drink." Though his voice was low, Qin Nianzhe read his lips easily.
After a while of drinking, Qin Nianzhe noticed Jiang Shiyu's gaze lingering elsewhere. Following his line of sight, he froze momentarily before quickly grabbing his glass and walking over. He turned back to wink at Jiang Shiyu as if saying, "Hey bro, what are you looking at? Come on!"
Jiang Shiyu stood up and approached. Meanwhile, Yun Li was engaged in an animated conversation with the man beside her, both of them enjoying each other's company with laughter and chatter.
Qin Nianzhe suddenly appeared and sat down in an empty seat, with Jiang Shiyu following closely behind. Yun Li fell silent upon his arrival.
Qin Nianzhe was quite the conversationalist, quickly engaging with others and raising a toast. The female companion, Jiang Shiyu, threw him a flirtatious glance, inviting him to drink, but he declined.
Yun Li observed this with little expression. Her hair fell forward as she lifted her glass, a few strands wrapping around her wrist. The man beside her noticed and reached out to help her untangle her hair.
Yun Li thanked him softly, smiling beautifully as she exchanged glances with the man beside her. Across the table, Jiang Shiyu tightened his grip on his glass, a sudden pang of pain striking his heart. He downed a drink in one go and irritably slammed the glass onto the table.
The sound was lost in the commotion around them; no one paid it any mind. Yun Li felt the weight of Jiang Shiyu's gaze on her, making her uneasy. She spoke briefly to the man beside her, who seemed reluctant to let her go. Despite his hesitation, Yun Li smiled and stood up to put on her coat.
As she walked away, she texted Shu Ran: "Ran Ran, I'm leaving now. Keep an eye out and come back early." She felt at ease knowing that the friends here were reliable.
She took a taxi home directly. The smell of alcohol clung to her; it wasn't too noticeable in the bar, but once in the car, it felt overwhelming. She thought about rushing home for a shower.
After getting out of the car, she walked toward her apartment complex. A nagging feeling crept over her that someone was following her. She dared not look back, but as she stepped onto the cobblestone path, the footsteps behind her grew louder.
Her heart raced as fear gripped her; she quickened her pace. Suddenly, a strong force grabbed her from behind and spun her around. She stumbled backward, pressed against a nearby tree, and as her startled eyes focused on the figure before her, recognition dawned.
With a trembling voice laced with anger, she exclaimed, "Jiang Shiyu, what are you doing?"
