11 Kiss (I)

"Have you been drinking?"

She smiled bitterly and nodded, "Yeah."

"You don't drink much."

"...So you still remember."

"He...your boyfriend?"

Shang Shiyu looked at him with a heavy eye, and was about to answer when a strange, anxious voice interrupted their conversation, "You two, can one of you please make way for me? You're blocking me. I'm in a hurry!"

The other party was obviously in a hurry to go to the bathroom. While talking, he kept jumping around and his face turned pale.

This corridor was narrow, just enough for two people. The other person weighed at least 200 pounds, and it was really hard to squeeze through.

The two were about to turn sideways after hearing the voice, but the man couldn't bear it anymore and pushed Shang Shiyu aside, "Sorry, sorry, if you don't go in now, it won't work!"

Shang Shiyu staggered after being pushed, and her forehead almost hit the wall. Tang Wei instinctively raised his hand to cover her forehead, and her forehead hit his palm.

"Are you okay?"

He frowned and asked worriedly.

Unconsciously, he got very close. His voice was right beside her ear, and she could hear the concern in his tone.

She covered her forehead and didn't move.

Tang Wei turned her around and looked at her seriously, "Take your hand down, let me see."

Shang Shiyu's heart ached, and after letting go of his hand, he suddenly hugged him. Tang Wei was stunned, his hand hanging stiffly in the air, and he only heard her close to his chest and asked hoarsely: "If I have a boyfriend, will you be sad?"

He was silent.

She clutched his shirt with both hands.

"Even a little bit! A little bit of sadness, is there?" Although she asked, there was no expectation in her tone, but more sadness. It seemed that she already knew the answer to this question the moment she asked it.

Tang Wei looked down at her, and her little face was sad under the dim light.

His Adam's apple rolled, as if there was a sharp blade across there, cutting his throat again and again,

making him unable to say a word.

He only gently held her slender wrist, and after a long time, he squeezed out a few hoarse words, "I'll take you home."

She drank, but he still couldn't let her be with another man, fearing that she would do something out of line. After all, he didn't know if that man was worthy of her trust. Or, in his heart, he was not great enough. But he didn't want to admit it.

"If you take me away, what about your girlfriend?"

"I have plans. Let's go."

Shang Shiyu felt like a drug addict. She could only be led by him. When he said he would take her home, she followed him without any backbone. Just because she wanted to be closer to him and wanted to stay with him longer.

They came out of another door of the restaurant, Tang Wei walked in front, and Shiyu followed behind. He was tall and had long legs, and she was drunk and her steps were unsteady, so he deliberately walked slowly to wait for her.

Shang Shiyu looked at his back in fascination, stepping on his elongated figure on the ground. She wished that time could be frozen forever at this moment, and she wished that the road they walked on would never end and they would keep walking like this.

But this was a luxury.

Soon, they arrived in front of his business car. Yu Sheng got out of the car and was a little surprised to see the boss, "Did you finish eating so soon?"

Tang Wei stepped aside to let Shang Shiyu, whose cheeks were flushed, out. He opened the door himself and said to her, "Get in the car."

Shiyu nodded and sat in obediently. However, Tang Wei did not get in the car, but just told the driver, "Send Miss Shang to Yujing Huadu, don't stop anywhere on the way."

He was afraid that she would not go home properly after drinking and run to other places, which would be very dangerous. So he gave special instructions.

Shang Shiyu understood what he meant at once. She was too self-indulgent, thinking that he would send her home personally, and that she would abandon Yunling for her. How ridiculous! Why is she so confident?

"I'm not leaving." The feeling of disappointment was particularly uncomfortable. She suddenly didn't want to stay any longer, and stood up to jump out of the car.

Tang Wei moved quickly, stretched out his hands to hold her arms, and stopped her in the car, "Where are you going?"

"I'm fine going anywhere, but I don't want to take your car." She suddenly got angry.

He sighed, "You've been drinking."

"I've been drinking, but it has nothing to do with you. I can take Lan Xiao's car or a taxi. I won't take yours!" She became stubborn, but her tone gradually became unstable.

Tang Wei was afraid that she would cry again. He really couldn't stand her tears. It was like a tight hoop curse that made him miserable. His expression eased a lot, and he said helplessly: "Then what do you have to do to get in?"

Shang Shiyu sat in the car, looked at him sadly, sniffed, "You really don't want to stay with me for even a second, do you hate me so much?"

It's not that I don't want to, but I don't dare...

It's not that I hate, but I like it too much...

If you stay like this for a long time, you will get addicted. He was afraid that because of his greed, he would lose his calmness in the end.

He kept all the words deep in his heart. She continued bitterly: "If that's the case, why do you care about me? I can go back any way I want, and I won't bother you."

After she finished speaking, she pushed him away and tried to get out of the car. Tang Wei hugged her silently, his arms trembling slightly. He suppressed the tightness in his heart and pretended to be calm and said: "Go back and sit down, I'll take you."

Just this one sentence controlled her. Her temper just now was gone in an instant. She looked at him and confirmed again and again that he was not lying to her, and then she obediently returned to the chair.

Tang Wei turned around and said to Yu Sheng: "You ask the driver to pick up Miss Lin. By the way, apologize to her for me, I will treat her next time."

"Okay." Yu Sheng nodded, and he closed the door after Tang Wei got in the car. Looking at the two figures in the car, he sighed to himself, a little reluctant.

Yun Ling sat there alone, looking around, and she couldn't sit still. Tang Wei had been gone for a long time, but he didn't come back. Especially, he was the only one at Lan Xiao's table, which made her feel even more uneasy.

"Miss Lin." Yu Sheng's voice suddenly appeared.

Yun Ling put away her hesitant eyes and stood up, "Why are you here? Wei hasn't come back yet."

"Mr. Tang asked me to come in and apologize to you, saying that he would definitely treat you well next time."

"Apologize?"

"Mr. Tang has left. Sorry."

Yun Ling's hands pressed on the dining table, tensed a little. She couldn't help but ask, "Did you go with Shang Shiyu?"

"...Yes." Yu Sheng didn't hide it from her, "Please wait, the driver is on the way."

Yun Ling grabbed the handbag, all kinds of emotions surged in her heart, and finally nodded, "Okay."

In his world, there was only that girl. But, if that was the case, why did he give up? She couldn't figure it out.
