Zhe glanced at the seat number, but the latter seemed not to hear it. The former felt a little strange and then reached out and patted Zhu Yuan's shoulder.
"Zhu Yuan, what's wrong with you?"
"Ah, Dad... Ugh! I, I'm fine, I..."
Zhu Yuan suddenly woke up and realized that something was wrong and wanted to change his words, but it was too late. Although his voice was very low, the two people present heard it clearly.
"That's really... unexpected."
Qingyi exclaimed in surprise, and as the person being addressed, Zhe naturally exclaimed the same, but he did not show it. Instead, he looked at the ashamed Zhu Yuan in front of him.
"Ahem, the movie seems to be about to start, let's go."
As he said this, he pulled up Zhu Yuan, who was lowering her head and not daring to look at him, and Qingyi, who was smiling beside her, and went to sit at the seats indicated on the ticket.
However, after something like this happened, the three of them obviously couldn't watch the movie peacefully...
Even after coming out of the cinema, Zhu Yuan still didn't dare to face Zhe. The former was particularly thin-skinned at such times.
Knowing this very well, Zhe of course did not mention it again. He looked at the time and immediately decided to take the two of them out to eat something.
"Oh? You're choosing to use a hot pot meal to resolve the awkward situation? Not a bad choice."
"Qingyi..."
It would be better if you didn't say it.
Zhe secretly added this in his heart. Fortunately, Zhu Yuan was not a fussy person, and the two acquaintances around him were determined not to mention that matter.
As they enjoyed the hotpot and chatted, she gradually stopped thinking about the embarrassing scene.
"By the way, Senior Qingyi, do you like eating mutton?"
"Hmm (swallow)~ Why do you ask?"
"Because I see Senior always eating mutton, doesn't he like it?"
While Zhu Yuan was speaking, Qingyi took another bite of the mutton roll, swallowed it, and licked his lips with his tongue.
"I love eating mutton because it's... savory~"
"Hmm...what a cold joke."
Zhe and Zhu Yuan felt that the hot pot had become cold for a moment. Seeing this, Qingyi couldn't help but chuckle, then waved his hand and stopped joking.
"Well, actually, rather than the taste, it's more convenient to eat mutton rolls. You just need to dip them in the hot pot. Hot pot is really a great invention~"
Although Qingyi's main source of energy is not eating, it can still satisfy its appetite.
By the way, speaking of this, next time you eat something, should you switch the taste in your taste buds to this? Just eating sweetness is a bit boring...
After eating hot pot, the three of them strolled on the street for a while. It was getting late.
"Qingyi, do you need us to take you back?"
Zhe glanced at the time and knew that the Public Security Bureau would be closing soon. Upon hearing this, Qingyi waved his hand.
"No need. I've applied to my superiors. Today is a special case. You can stay overnight, provided Zhu Yuan accompanies you."
"In that case, then..."
Zhe looked at Zhu Yuan beside him. The latter was stunned for a moment, but then nodded with a slightly red face.
"I, I have no objection."
In this way, the three of them returned to Zhu Yuan's home together.
(Although Zhu Yuan has both parents, she does not live with them.)
But at night...
"Dad~"
"Wait, wait a minute! Senior Qingyi! Why are you making my voice? Could it be that time... No! Delete it immediately."
Zhu Yuan suddenly became nervous, and even Zhe felt a little uncomfortable. There was nothing he could do. Who made Qingyi choose such a good time to speak?
In the end, Zhu Yuan seemed to have given up struggling, and his only request was that Qing Yi not play this audio in front of anyone other than the three of them.
"It's obviously vacation time, but why do I feel more tired than when I was working?"
Zhu Yuan, leaning on Zhe's shoulder, covered her eyes with her arms, looking a little tired.
Qingyi, who was lying on the other side, was fine. She had plenty of energy and was sighing about the good quality of the new parts. At least this time her twin tails were not pulled off.
……
A few days passed like this, and last night, Zhe, who had just left the home of a certain Rat Xiren lady who liked to 'suck bone marrow', was about to go home.
As for why they didn't stay overnight, it was because Jane had a new plan that night, and there might not be a chance to meet in the next few days, so she approached Zhe before that.
However, as he passed by Guangying Square, he suddenly heard a "bang" and then someone's scream.
Zhe subconsciously looked over and seemed to see a familiar figure walking away.
Chapter 354 Evelin: If I had known it was you, I wouldn’t have resisted…
On the sidewalk, the man who had fallen miserably got up with a grimace on his face. Zhe came to his side at this time and began to mutter.
"Ouch, it hurts... Why is it so hard to do good things these days? It hurts so much, it hurts so hard..."
"How are you? Are you okay?"
It doesn't look like there's anything serious going on, probably just some pain from the fall. Zhe observed for a while and came to this conclusion, and the man spoke again at this time.
"I'm fine. I just saw an elegant lady who seemed to be drunk and didn't even notice her coat fell on the ground.
I was just thinking about picking it up for her and returning it to her. Instead… he threw me to the ground with a back throw! He probably thought I was some late-night stalker… Ugh, it hurt like hell!
The man pointed to his coat that had fallen to the ground because he had dropped it from his hands, but Zhe was a little confused when he heard this.
"Knocked over by a drunk man?"
"You have no idea, that kind of strength she has must have been practiced! Her coat is the kind that, well, only people in black would wear!"
The man seemed to be afraid that Zhe wouldn't believe it, so he hurriedly explained it, but in fact, he didn't need to say much, the latter had already believed it at this time.
Because he checked the coat beside him, and it was indeed Evelin’s.
"I picked it up out of kindness, but she just smacked me and walked away! I didn't even have time to curse!"
"Thank you for your hard work. I'll go and pay her back. Where did she go?"
After Zhe understood the whole story, he wanted to find Evelin first, but the man was surprised to hear this.
"Wow, you're still so fearless after listening to all I've said. You're truly chivalrous...
Before my vision turned dizzy, I saw her running towards the riverside trail. You can give it back to her. I don't want to care about it anymore."
The man pointed in a direction, and before leaving, he reminded Zhe to be careful. After all, judging from his appearance, the other party was not much stronger than him.
If that force were to come upon him, his fragile body might have fallen apart.
Zhe didn't say much about this. After thanking him, he left quickly.
Searching along the riverside trail, I finally saw a familiar figure. Evelin was holding onto the railing, looking very uncomfortable...
“Uh… Uh, uh—”
Zhe called her name softly, and Evelin turned around, only to see a blush on her cheeks...
"You're...ah, it's you. I thought it was that stalker from earlier."
"Actually, that guy just now shouldn't be a stalker."
Zhe thought about the man cursing just now, but Evelin frowned when she heard this.
"How do you know that the person just now wasn't a stalker? Are you a stalker?"
"No, I'm not..."
"Don't try to quibble. Look, isn't that my coat in your hand? How could you have a coat if you weren't a stalker?
What are you doing? If I had known it was you, I wouldn’t have resisted… Um…”
After hearing this, Zhe didn't know what to say. What kind of mysterious logic is this?
"... Anyway, put on your coat quickly."
"Zhe, my head hurts... I've been exposed to the wind for a long time, why does it still hurt so much..."
Evelin seemed not to have heard Zhe’s words, and stood there dizzy. Seeing this, Zhe hurried forward to support her.
"How much did you drink? How did you end up like this?"
"Well, it's just a social event. Those guys are desperately trying to force the lady to drink some weird stuff! How could I possibly let them succeed?
Besides, I wasn't drunk, I was sober, and I just dealt with a stalker."
Evelin now seemed to have lost her normal logical ability, and only her subconscious counterattack was still functioning. In any case, she should help her put on her clothes first.
It’s easy to catch a cold if the river breeze blows for a long time late at night. Evelin probably wanted to put on her coat by herself, but she stumbled and leaned on Zhe’s arms.
The elegant scent of perfume filled my face. At such a close distance, I could feel the other person's breath and heartbeat, as well as the slightly cool skin...
But no matter what, put on your clothes first.
"Huh? Isn't this my coat? Where did you find it? You're amazing! I wish you were by my side every day, so I wouldn't have to worry about anything..."
Evelin laughed a few times as he spoke, and Zhe originally wanted to send him back first, but the former, who noticed his intention, misunderstood.
"Are you going home? I don't want to go back. If I go back today will be the end. Let's go get something to drink next."
“…Still drinking? Stop drinking!”
"Yes! Look at how drunk I am. I have to drink a little."
Zhe originally wanted to stop Evelin's actions, but he couldn't resist Evelin who kept shouting "I want to drink, I want to drink".
Her attitude was both coquettish and tough, so I could only pretend to go along with her wishes.
But it's already this late, so I can only accompany her to the grocery store. However, since there is no rule on what to drink, if she is so confused, I can probably get away with it with hot milk, right?
"What is this? Warm, sweet, and a little thick..."
"It's a new drink with a very special taste."
"Okay, cheers then!"
Evelin, who didn't notice anything unusual, seemed to be drinking happily.
"Really, the taste is very unique, completely different from what I had before."
"tasty?"
"It's delicious. You should drink it too, and join me."
Zhe had only intended to test whether Evelin was still sober, but he was forced to drink with her.
"After drinking this, I'll go back and rest."
Zhe used this coaxing tone to try to persuade Evelin at the moment.
"Do you want to rest? I'm still in good spirits. Ah, I think I'm a little drunk after what I just said. This new drink is amazing."
I don’t know if it was the effect of the hot milk, but Evelin couldn’t help but close her eyelids several times, and she held her forehead with her hand dizzy.
"Okay then, go and rest. But you just drank too, so you need to rest too."
"Well, I'll take a break too."
Seeing that he was about to succeed, Zhe continued to coax her, but Evelin suddenly changed her tone and clung to Zhe's arms, acting pitifully and coquettishly.
"Zhe, do you think I'm clingy and annoying like this..."
"Not at all, and it's super... cute."
"Really? Then I can make even more outrageous demands."
Evelin happily hugged Zhe's neck, but then the alcohol took over and she couldn't resist.
"I still don't want to go back. Where can I rest here...? Oh, there seems to be a light on over there! Let's go rest there!"
