Shi Lei sighed. “Do you think everyone has received a good education since childhood, like you? Our entire education comes from schools, but you learn through experience, which is much stronger than schooling. So I have to study, because you guys are already at the finish line while I’m still at the start.”
Wei Xingyue blinked. In fact, she didn’t really understand what Shi Lei had said. People who stood at the bottom of the mountain could lift their head and see the people in the middle, and at the top, of the mountain clearly. However, people standing on top of the mountain could only see the scenery below. What people at the top of the mountain would notice the people standing at the foot of the mountain?
However, she didn’t have the intention to inquire further, “Sister Nü said that you are preparing to go back to Runzhou and visited her the day before yesterday.”
“I was going to go by myself yesterday, but it snowed the night before and Brother Yu was in a very good mood. He wanted to go to Old Bai’s lake house, so I texted Godmother.”
“I’m asking you: are you going back to Runzhou?”
Shi Lei nodded. “Mhm, I have something tomorrow, and I’m leaving the day after.”
“You have something tomorrow; does it have anything to do with me?”
Shi Lei shook his head earnestly. “No. I plan to take Yiyi and a student I tutored before out for food and some fun. I agreed that I’d hang out with her for a day if her grades reached my standards.”
“In other words, you are going back to Runzhou during the holidays and didn’t plan to mention it to me?” Wei Xingyue was unwilling to give up, but she was in a rather bad mood.
Shi Lei was surprised. “Why do I have to mention it to you? Don’t we see each other every two or three days? I don’t understand. Aren’t misses and young masters actually busy? Why do you have so much free time?”
“That’s none of your business! Why won’t you tell me?”
“We see each other too often, so I don’t feel like we are separating.”
“But your winter holiday is a month long and Chinese New Year is in the middle of it!”
Shi Lei stretched his hand out and waved it in front of Wei Xingyue’s widened eyes. Seeing that she didn’t react, he lightly flicked her forehead.
“Aiyo, why are you flicking me!?”
“I seriously think that you drank too much before coming. Runzhou is only eighty kilometers away from Wudong. With your personality, wouldn’t you just drive over if you want something from me? Or you can catch a twenty-minute high-speed rail and tell me to pick you up from the station. That is Miss Wei’s style. Why do I have to tell you? I assume that in at least five days—most likely in three—you’ll run to Runzhou and tell me to take you to Jinshan Temple, where the Madam White Snake(1) drowned.”
Wei Xingyue tilted her head to the side in confusion. “Am I like that?”
Shi Lei nodded furiously. “Mhm, you are.”
Wei Xingyue smiled, her eyes looking like crescent moons.
“That’s what I’m saying. We are friends after all, and you wouldn’t not tell me when you go back. It’s because you are sure that I will go find you?”
Shi Lei waved his hand in front of Wei Xingyue again. “Hey, wake up. Are you crazy? Wei Xingyue, don’t f*cking tell me you are in love with me.”
Wei Xingyue glared at him. “Can’t I be?”
“I think you are really drunk. That’s strange. You weren’t like this when you were drunk before. What happened to you today? Were you triggered by other couples? Fine, I admit that we do have some ambiguous romance, but those are just misunderstandings. And you always knew that I have a girlfriend—”
“You have a girlfriend? Then what’s up with you and that water deliverer?” Under Shi Lei’s influence, Wei Xingyue had also called Song Miaomiao “water deliverer.”
“What’s wrong with me and her? There’s nothing going on between us.”
“You dare say that you’ve never kissed her?” Wei Xingyue widened her eyes and her volume increased.
Shi Lei felt like all the staff in the McDonald’s were looking at him and he felt extremely embarrassed. He gestured for her to quiet down. “Can’t you speak softly? Whatever. Let’s leave first. I can’t talk about it in public.”
Wei Xingyue shot up from the chair, feeling wronged. “Fine, let’s go to your place. I’m definitely going to sleep with you tonight.”
Shi Lei turned around in horror and sprinted away as if he had seen a ghost. Wei Xingyue was furious, but she couldn’t run as fast as he could in high heels. She stopped after a few steps, took off her shoes, and held them in her hands. She then realized that Shi Lei was already five or six meters away. Wei Xingyue yelled. Not only did Shi Lei not turn around, he ran even faster. She threw the shoes toward his back in fury.
After Shi Lei returned to his apartment, he leaned against the door, lightly patting his chest. He heaved a long sigh and panted. Although it wasn’t far, he had run all the way back. He didn’t even wait for the elevator, instead taking the stairs, which was very tiring.
“What kind of woman is that? Damn, saying that she wants to sleep with a man so often. Am I scared of you? Hmm, well, yes. Slightly. But what the hell was that, saying that she wants to sleep with me?” Shi Lei hunched over as he walked inside. Before he could walk a few steps, someone knocked heavily on the door.
“Shi Lei, open the door!” Wei Xingyue’s voice sounded.
Shi Lei jumped. Holy sh*t, how did she come up? Is the security downstairs just a decoration?
“Why did you come up? What do you want?”
“I don’t want anything. I just need to talk to you about it clearly.”
“Talk about what? And how did you get in? Did the security guard let you in?”
“Obviously. Do you think everyone’s as blind as you? The guard’s eyes were glued on me. I told him to swipe the card for me and he did immediately. He even said that I’m the one living in your house.”
“What the hell! Useless security guard. I’m going to report him tomorrow. Does he just let in any beauty in? Is this is a…No, this is a femme fatale!”
“Cut the crap. Hurry up and open the door for me.”
After a moment of hesitation, he carefully and anxiously fastened the chain lock before opening a small gap. “I can let you in, but promise me that you will go home tonight and I definitely won’t have that kind of relationship with you—”
“Are you crazy to take my words seriously? You don’t look nice, but you definitely have nice thoughts! Cut the crap. Hurry up and open the door! I’m freezing!”
Shi Lei didn’t have a choice but to anxiously open the door. Wei Xingyue saw that the safety chain was removed and opened the door with a light push of her shoulder. She walked in by herself with two bare feet.
“Where are your shoes?” Shi Lei became even more anxious.
Wei Xingyue sat on the couch. “I threw it at you, but they didn’t hit. One of the heels was broken when I picked up it, so I threw it away.”
Shi Lei said “oh” and couldn’t bear to see it as he threw a pair of slippers over. “Put them on. Don’t catch a cold.”
“So you do have some conscience.” After putting the slippers on, the room’s temperature made Wei Xingyue feel much better. She asked, “Why did you run away all of a sudden?”
“Isn’t it obvious? You were being a pervert, so how could I not run away?”
Wei Xingyue rolled her eyes. “Can’t you tell that I said it only because I was angry? You want to me sleep with you for no good reason? No way!”
“Oh, that’s good.”
“What? Do you feel wronged to sleep with me?”
“Just a little bit.”
“Shi Lei…” Wei Xingyue picked up something from the table chucked it over. Luckily, it was only a pair of gloves.
