Heads popping out of the ground, is that even possible? Anyway, Su Qing has been looking forward to this day.
Wang Xing doesn’t have a procrastination problem in his life. When he says he’ll move, he moves. When he says he quits, he quits. When he decides to take an exam, he registers imdiately and puts in extra study ti at once.
This was also the last gathering they had agreed upon before his exam, so they basically spent the whole day having fun.
Eating, internet cafe, watching movies, and they even found a newly opened, legit foot massage place to get massages. It was quite relaxing.
"Alright, this is it. I’m leaving now. Unless it’s a life-or-death ergency, try not to contact —I have no ti!" Wang Xing said, waving from the taxi.
"Show off, study hard. You had no motivation in school, but now you’re learning for yourself. Put in so effort; if you pass, you’ll be the pride of the village. If not... then prepare for a quiet burial!"
"Damn it, you think I won’t pass? Just wait and see!"
"Get lost!"
As they waved, the taxi slowly drove into the distance.
In their city, taking professional exams is definitely a promising path. If a kid in the family says they want to take the exams, families will support them fully if they can. Even families that can’t afford it will grittily make sure their child takes the exams.
Just take a look at his mom’s reaction while he was working at the police station.
If he had said right after graduation that he wanted to prepare for the exams, even if he didn’t work a single day, his mom would be thrilled and say, ’Son, just focus on studying, leave everything else to mom.’
Seeing Wang Xing like this made him quite happy. After all, doesn’t luck also depend on the people and environnt around you?
Ever since Wang Xing broke up with Jiang ngting, changes in him were visible to the naked eye.
His job was going well, he was spirited, and even new romances ca knocking on his doorstep. Now, he’s even woken up to self-awareness and wants to take the exams.
These are all changes; it’s just that Wang Xing himself hasn’t realized it.
At 8:30 in the evening, Su Qing returned ho, opened the living room door, and saw Shen Yi wearing an apron at the entrance:
"Oh wow, little brother’s back! Change your shoes, are you hungry? I’ve made dinner!"
Saying this, she dragged him to the dinner table without giving him a chance to refuse, seating him down. The table held several homade dishes, though not particularly impressive in appearance, indicated they were made by her own hands.
"Ah... what’s this all about? Is there so kind of plot?"
For a mont, Su Qing’s mind blanked, and he even bent down to check under the table, worried there might be a trap.
"Co on, it’s just to thank you for taking care of last night. Eat or not?" Shen Yi’s expression was a bit playful with a hint of teasing, but her skin was glowing, looking fair, rosy, and radiant.
To Su Qing, it just seed like she was in a particularly good mood today, but in the landlord’s wife’s eyes, the change was drastic.
Before he showed up, Shen Yi looked listless, her eyes sotis vacant, like soone completely different from now, as if a drowning person suddenly inhaled pure oxygen and soared.
"Thank ? You’re not aiming to suck out my yang energy, are you? I’m telling you, suck all you want, just don’t use your teeth!"
Shen Yi: ...
"Who... who said I was sucking your yang energy? You want a beating, don’t you?"
"If you didn’t suck my yang energy, then why is my neck red? Did I do it myself?"
Hearing this, Shen Yi’s face flushed even more, her hands unconsciously clutching at the corners of her shirt, not from shyness but because, as the elder, she was quite embarrassed about last night’s behavior.
"I... I was drunk, it was the alcohol, you can’t bla !"
Looking at Shen Aunty in this state, Su Qing sighed helplessly: "But Aunty, I’m not even hungry now. Also, who invites soone to dinner with just fried potatoes? Where’s your financial power? Bring out a feast, like ten-pound king crab or Australian lobster. Where’s your rich lady money? You need to step up!"
But just as he finished talking, he got a knock on his head as Shen Yi clenched her fist, her eye twitching: "Hurry up and... eat!"
[Boss Shen cooking personally is actually her way of submitting to you, but young folks shouldn’t push their luck; beware of the consequences, anger level at 83.6% and rising]
Hearing the narration in his mind, Su Qing quickly picked up his chopsticks and stuffed himself. Bantering was one thing, but pissing her off would ultimately make him suffer.
"How’s the taste?" Shen Yi’s face looked slightly better as she watched him eat obediently and asked.
"It’s alright!"
"Then eat more!"
He wasn’t saying it on purpose; the taste wasn’t bad but also nothing outstanding, just run-of-the-mill.
Under Shen Yi’s threatening gaze, he forcefully finished off several servings.
While he ate, Shen Yi attempted to say sothing several tis but ultimately couldn’t, just looking a bit awkward and abnormally flushed.
"Are you okay? Why aren’t you eating?" He realized Shen Yi’s unusual behavior after he had almost finished eating.
"Huh? No... no problem. After you’re done eating, don’t clean up right away, do it tomorrow. I’ll head out first!"
Saying that, Shen Yi nearly fled out the door, leaving him dumbfounded.
After a while, he looked carefully at the leftovers on the table and mumbled, "Could it be poisoned?"
Surely Shen Aunty wasn’t enacting a drama of ’Dear, it’s ti for your dicine’ just because of last night’s event, right? Plus, they weren’t even role-playing.
[Shen Yi, the hidden mastermind, failed in her plan and is now in self-reproach with mild ntal exhaustion. But don’t worry, this ans you’re just one step away from success]
Su Qing: ???
Hearing the narration in his mind, he was a bit confused. Is there really sothing going on?
What plan are you talking about? What’s the point of informing after it’s over? Aren’t you treating like I’m not even human here? What’s the use of a hindsight-only narrator?
Did the narrator’s info deteriorate? Should I order so mushrooms from Yunnan to eat online?
He’s already gotten used to living with a narrator in his head, and without it, he feels a bit out of sorts.
anwhile, Shen Yi took small steps, running all the way to the landlord’s wife’s place. The mont she stepped inside, she headed straight for the water dispenser, stomping and drinking water.
"Hey? What brings you here? Weren’t you eating with little Su? Didn’t work out?" The landlord’s wife asked first in confusion, then squinted to question disdainfully.
At her words, Shen Yi finished a big glass of water but still felt a bit feverish, fanning herself with her hands and nodding a bit dejectedly.
Seeing this, the landlord’s wife rolled her eyes: "I knew it wouldn’t be so easy for you. So tell , where did it go wrong? He didn’t drink?"
Shen Yi shook her head.
"Then what happened?"
After a mont, Shen Yi finally said, "I... didn’t dare to suggest it. I was afraid suddenly suggesting alcohol would seem too deliberate!"
Wen Nanqing: ...
Ever since last night, when Shen Yi took a bold gulp at Su Qing’s neck under the influence of alcohol, she found herself hooked.
That feeling was more direct than usual, even more stimulating, more so than when Su Qing used to whisper in her ear.
Simply put, last night’s ’goods’ were purer than any before. She thought Su Qing was already the best from Tazhai, but now she realized there was even better.
Or maybe it was that she had never tasted anything good and had never experienced anything this stimulating, making it hard for her to handle. Thus, she thought about giving it another try today, and after discussing with Wen Nanqing, they ca up with a plan.
That’s right; the plan was to get Su Qing drunk so she could do as she pleased. But making a plan was one thing, carrying it out was another. Shen Yi realized she might not be bold enough.
After hearing this, Wen Nanqing couldn’t help but roll her eyes again: "I thought sothing went wrong, but didn’t expect it was just you not daring to implent it. You useless little trash!"
Seeing Wen Nanqing’s disappointed gaze, Shen Yi hurriedly grabbed her hand: "Don’t, Sister Qing, it was my first ti, no experience, plus I... didn’t dare!"
"What’s there to be scared of? You’re looking for a man, not selling organs. If you’re like this and don’t get any action, you have no one to bla. You might as well stay single forever. Two years later when little Su finds a girl he likes, you’ll be old, and at their wedding, they’ll send you an invitation, and you’ll just bless the newlyweds to have kids soon!" The landlord’s wife spread her hands, using reverse psychology.
"Next ti... Next ti I’ll definitely succeed!"
"Then go back now and prove it to !"
"Uh... Sister Qing, how about you go get him drunk, and then I’ll go over?"
The landlord’s wife: ...
"Pah, how despicable!"
