Chapter 4
When the outdoor lights came on, Bai Mumu was standing in a crowded street, suddenly not knowing where to go.

She didn't even have the courage to ask for proof.

The secret emotions came surging, making her overwhelmed and at the same time just wanting to run away.

Escaping was impossible, so Bai Mumu entered a convenience store, and took a can of beer from the dazzling shelves, fine droplets of water condensed on the cool soda can.

She walked all the way holding a beer, sitting on the green belt downstairs in the community, and Lin Luning's appearance appeared in her mind.

What kind of expression would he show when he knew he was gone?
It's probably an indifferent attitude.

The coolness of the beer was gone, Bai Mumu pulled the buckle, and the dense and bitter taste made her frown.

It's so bad!
When Bai Mumu drank half of it, she poured the rest of the beer on her body, and the volatile alcohol smell enveloped her in an instant, and her flushed face had black pupils.

He trotted upstairs, opened the door, and as expected, he saw Lin Luning sitting on the sofa, reading a book.

Hearing the sound of the door, he raised his head, and the bright galaxy and lights behind him became accessories. At this moment, Bai Mumu had only him in his eyes.

"Where have you been?" Lin Luning put down his book and stood up from the sofa.

As Bai Mumu approached, the air was filled with the smell of malt fermentation.

Bai Mumu's black and bright eyes began to slacken, and she threw herself on Lin Luning half-truthfully. The movement was so sudden that the two of them fell on the sofa.

"You... have you been drinking?" Lin Luning was taken aback for a moment. He wanted to help Bai Mumu to sit up, but instead Bai Mumu pressed him down.

After struggling a few times, Lin Luning remembered Bai Mumu's abnormality today and chose to give up.

He put his hand on the back of Bai Mumu's head, and said in a coaxing tone like a child: "Can you tell me what happened today?"

"No!" Bai Mumu's voice was muffled. She buried her head in Lin Luning's chest, listening to the sound of his heart beating, the smell of alcohol on her body passed to Lin Luning bit by bit through her body temperature.

"Lin Luning, do you... like me?"

Bai Mumu knew that he was not drunk at all, and all the prerequisites were just preparations for now.

She wanted to know an answer, a definite answer, one that would stop deceiving herself.

Lin Luning didn't understand why Bai Mumu asked this question. He raised his head to see Bai Mumu's expression, but he could only see her face covered by black hair.

"Mu Mu, don't think too much, get up first." Lin Luning reached out to help Bai Mumu up.

The atmosphere suddenly became cold, like thick snow compressed together, even the breath was cold.

Lin Luning wanted to say something to relieve him, but Bai Mumu stretched out his hand to reach his face, and pressed hard: "It's okay Lin Luning, but I still want to tell you, I like you a little bit!"

Bai Mumu was laughing, but her hand holding Lin Luning's face was still not loose. She didn't want Lin Luning to see her current appearance. It must, must be very ridiculous!

Like a clown, like a toad delusional to eat swan meat, the unknowing and arrogant greed has turned into a black hole in her heart, about to swallow her up.

How did she get up from Lin Luning, and how did she lock herself in the room?
Bai Mumu doesn't want to recall, but the benefit of drinking is like this. At dawn, everything that happened tonight can be attributed to drunkenness.

It's just a joke, how can a drunk person take his words seriously?

She can pretend nothing happened.Every day will be the same as before.

Tears flowed silently on her face, Bai Mumu told herself that this is not good, and tomorrow she has to pretend that she doesn't know anything, what if her eyes are swollen? !

There were no tears on her face, but her heart ached.

She lay on the bed and hugged herself, killing that greedy self bit by bit.

The next day, when Bai Mumu looked at himself in the mirror, his face was a little pale, but nothing unusual.

When he opened the door, he met Lin Luning's eyes unexpectedly. The other party held two plates and looked at her calmly: "Eat breakfast."

Bai Mumu smiled sweetly. Since she wanted to pretend that nothing happened, of course she couldn't show her feet. She sat on the dining table cheerfully as usual: "It smells so good! I feel so hungry that I could eat a cow!"

The conversation was the same as usual, but it attracted Lin Luning's frequent glances, his intentions were too obvious. When he looked over again, Bai Mumu looked at him, and smiled An Ran at the corner of his mouth: "Is there something on my face? You want to look at it like this I?!"

"You..." Lin Luning started the conversation, and put it aside: "Why did you drink yesterday?"

"Yesterday!" Bai Mumu suddenly became weak, and she put her head on the dining table. Lin Luning didn't like Bai Mumu's bad habit, but he said it several times but it didn't work.

Simply out of sight, his eyes fell on the dinner plate.

"You don't even know that I was wronged so badly yesterday. I called you and you didn't answer the phone. I was hit by the armrest on my waist. It hurt me to death!" Bai Mumu looked like a puffer fish.

Lin Luning's eyes twitched, his hand holding the chopsticks tightened, his eyes moved to Bai Mumu's waist and then retracted.

He put down his chopsticks and peeled the shell of the egg: "Alcohol's damage to the body is permanent, you can't drink it anymore."

"Also, do you remember what happened when you got home last night?"

"What happened?" Bai Mumu was in high spirits, she raised her head: "I won't go crazy with alcohol, will I?! It's embarrassing, really embarrassing!"

Bai Mumu was talking about embarrassment, while covering her face: "I order you to forget what happened yesterday!" With round eyes showing between her fingers, Bai Mumu turned to look at Lin Luning, very depressed: "Tell me quickly, You will forget, right?"

Lin Luning pursed his lips, put the peeled egg into Bai Mumu's bowl, and said word by word: "If I need to forget, I will forget."

"Of course! I must have been ashamed last night, so it's better to forget about it." After speaking, Bai Mumu stuffed the eggs in the bowl into her mouth with chopsticks.

The circles of her eyes started to turn red again, and she dodged to prevent Lin Luning from seeing her. Tears were forced back, and she said in the same tone as usual: "I'm done eating."

Lin Luning glanced at Bai Mumu's untouched egg, and said nothing.

When the two went out together, Lin Luning offered to send Bai Mumu to work, but the other party declined: "The school and the hospital are in two directions, and there is traffic during the morning rush hour. I don't want to be late, so I should take the subway honestly."

Bai Mumu waved at Lin Luning gracefully, and when she turned around, all the colors on her body faded away.

It's just that Lin Luning doesn't like her, and it's not like the sky is falling. One night is enough for her to sort out her thoughts and future.

Life is full of hardships, and all she experiences is not being able to love. In the face of life and death, this is nothing.
