Chapter 218 Shen Wanning is drunk, meets Lu Jinchuan, and stays at his home - 1
Qingchi Bar, dim lights, quiet music.
Wandering alone in this silent space, she was overwhelmed by the endless loneliness. When did going out to party become a habit? He once said that he would not allow her to drink alone, but he did not remember.
Xiao Xi said it didn’t matter that he didn’t remember the past, at least they still had the present.
But his memory was very important to her.
She didn't want to be ruthlessly rejected by him, and couldn't stand his strange and distant eyes. It had been a long time since she saw a smile on his face. It had also been a long time since she had met him.
If alcohol can make people forget, then will she not feel pain? Will she be able to relax?
Drinking seems to be a way to escape reality and temporarily forget all worries and pains. However, it is only a trace of alcohol, how can it really make people fall into deep paralysis? In the end, the only one who suffers from the splitting headache and stomach churning pain is oneself. No one can empathize with you.
The tears cannot go away because my heart is filled with him.
I really want to travel with a backpack, be a lonely traveler, without a destination, without him, and indulge in my own world.
Tired, she was so tired.
When we drove to Qingchi Xiaoju, the owner of the bar called and said that a woman named Shen Wanning was drunk.
The moment he received the call from the bar owner, he put down the important cooperation client he was negotiating with without hesitation and rushed over.
The noisy and bustling sound seemed to have become the unique symbol of the bar, deafeningly impacting people's eardrums. He frowned subconsciously, and saw a figure in the corner with a dazed look in her eyes. Even in this crowded and chaotic crowd, he could always easily spot her at a glance.
At this time, a scoundrel young man staggered towards her. He asked frivolously, "Little girl, are you alone?" There was a hint of ill intention in his words, and he secretly thought that the woman in front of him must be another poor person who was hurt by love and drank to drown her sorrows.
Hearing this, Shen Wanning nodded slightly and replied, "Yes." Is he by her side?
Seeing this, the young man thought he had an opportunity and quickly said, "How about we brothers accompany you?" As he said that, he looked up and down at the girl in front of him with lustful eyes. It must be said that this girl was really pretty and attractive.
Shen Wanning raised her head and glanced at them. Three people suddenly appeared from nowhere. They looked very scary and were dressed like street thugs.
While this group of hooligans were teasing Shen Wanning unscrupulously, Lu Jinchuan, who had just walked to the door, could no longer suppress his anger. His face instantly became extremely gloomy, and a strong murderous intent gushed out of his eyes. Even he himself might not have realized that he was so nervous and concerned at this moment. What made him even more angry was that in the face of these hooligans' harassment, the woman actually put on an innocent and confused expression!
"Haha..." Seeing Shen Wanning remain silent, the three men's smiles became more and more arrogant, as if they were sure that the woman in front of them was scared and dared not say a word. One of them narrowed his eyes and looked at Shen Wanning carefully, and suddenly lowered his voice and said to the other two: "Is this woman drunk? Look at her!" After saying that, the three exchanged glances and stepped forward at the same time, ready to sit next to Shen Wanning.
"Go away..." Shen Wanning shouted these two words with all her strength. Who are they? What do they want to do? Is it a mistake to drink alone? Recalling that he had warned her not to drink alone, she didn't take it seriously at the time, and she didn't listen to him. But now, he will never care about her again.
"Oh, my little beauty. If I leave, there will be no one to accompany you. Do you really want me to leave?" The leading man said with a grin, while reaching out his hand and gently rubbing Shen Wanning's hand. Well, the touch is quite good.
"I said go away..." Shen Wanning yelled again in anger, and tried her best to push the men away. However, she was alone and weak, and she could not match the strength of these men. With a muffled "bang", Shen Wanning was bounced back by the other party's powerful force, and fell heavily on the chair.
At the same time, the wine glass on the table also shattered due to the impact, and the glass fragments were scattered all over the floor. Shen Wanning was already a little drunk at this time. She was not very good at drinking, and she had drunk half a bottle of wine without realizing it.
"MD, let's go." Shen Wanning saw those vicious men waving their fists and rushing towards her. She had no time to dodge, and she didn't have the strength to dodge. Just when she thought she was about to be beaten, a strong hand suddenly appeared in mid-air and accurately intercepted the fist that was swinging towards her.
It turned out to be him. His face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes revealed a chill. With a few screams, the arrogant guys fell to the ground in an instant, groaning in pain.
Lu Jinchuan glanced coldly at the people rolling on the ground, snorted coldly, and said, "Don't let me see you again."
Hearing this, those men begged for mercy as if they had been pardoned: "Big brother, please spare us, big brother, please spare us! We are blind and will never dare to do it again!" They never expected that they would be so unlucky today. They finally met a woman who seemed weak and could be bullied. They were preparing to bully her, but Cheng Yaojin showed up and ruined their plan.
Lu Jinchuan didn't bother to pay attention to these people's pleading, and just squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "Get out!" This simple and cold monosyllabic word fully demonstrated his usual vigorous and ruthless style of action.
Lu Jinchuan turned around and looked at Shen Wanning. Her clear and bright eyes had become blurry, as if covered by a thin layer of mist. Her pretty face was flushed, and she was obviously drunk, revealing an innocent and lovable look.
He really wanted to beat her up! What would happen if he wasn't around, or did she just not care? This woman always managed to upset his heart so easily, making him restless for a long time.
"Let's go. I'll take you back." Lu Jinchuan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then reached out to take away the wine glass that Shen Wanning was holding tightly in her hand. Was his inner uneasiness all night because of her? He smiled bitterly and shook his head. It must not be.
Hearing the voice, Shen Wanning opened her eyes with great effort and stared at the man in front of her. Suddenly, as if she had discovered a new world, she shouted in surprise: "Jinchuan?" While speaking, she also blinked hard, as if she wanted to see more clearly. Indeed, the man in front of her looked too much like Lu Jinchuan, exactly the same.
Shen Wanning struggled to stand up, but due to being drunk, her body had already lost balance. With a "thump", she fell straight into Lu Jinchuan's warm embrace. Instantly, a familiar smell came to her face, which was the unique smell of Lu Jinchuan...
She hasn't seen him for a long time, and because he didn't allow her to, she could always miss him, she missed him so much.
Shen Wanning couldn't help but stretch out her hands and gently rub her eyes, wishing she could see the figure in front of her clearly. Even if he was drunk? She was willing if he could appear.
"Jinchuan, you're back?" Shen Wanning nestled in his arms, a smile as bright as a spring flower blooming on her face, as if all the sorrows were dispelled without a trace in an instant.
Tears immediately burst out like a flood, and she murmured to herself: "Jinchuan, I really miss you..."
"Why don't you say anything?" Seeing that the other party was silent, Shen Wanning broke free from his arms. Did she make him angry again?
"You're mad at me, aren't you?" The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.
"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have drunk alone." Thinking back to the time when she drank too much and Lu Jinchuan got angry, she couldn't help but think that he was blaming her again. She shouldn't have left him alone to drink.
"Please don't ignore me, okay?" She looked at him pitifully, her eyes full of pleading, and her voice a little tearful. "I promise I will remember it next time and will never make the same mistake again. Really, I promise."
Lu Jinchuan looked seriously at the woman in front of him who couldn't even take care of himself, and a nameless anger surged in his heart.
"I'll take you home." Lu Jinchuan was a little angry when he saw that she didn't know how to take care of herself. She looked much more haggard and thinner, with almost no flesh on her body.
"You've drunk too much." Lu Jinchuan just said very calmly. God knows, he didn't dare to think about what would happen to her if he didn't happen to come here. He shouldn't be angry, but damn it, he is very, very angry now.
"I'm not... I'm not drunk." Shen Wanning retorted loudly, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, "I'm sober! Who said I was drunk? I'm not drunk! If I was drunk, how could I meet you here?" While yelling, she staggered and tried to stand firm to prove that what she said was true.
"Jinchuan, listen, I can sing... I..." Lu Jinchuan blocked her mouth before she could sing and carried her away. She can sing?
"You two look alike." She murmured foolishly. She clearly had the same body temperature as him, so why did he lie to her so cruelly and say that they didn't know each other? Did he hate her in his heart?
"The eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, they are all the same." She stretched out her trembling fingers and gently touched Lu Jinchuan's face, as if she wanted to find the man who once loved her through these similarities. The same delicate facial features, the same charming face, even the body temperature is so compatible, but that heart no longer belongs to her.
"Whenever he encounters something upsetting, his handsome eyebrows will involuntarily wrinkle into a ball. And his lips are as soft as yours." However, Shen Wanning did not settle down. Her restless little hands touched his eyes, trying to find a trace of past tenderness in those deep eyes; and then she gently stroked his straight nose, recalling the sweet moment when the tip of their noses touched that of her beloved.
"It's so hard to forget someone." Her voice became lower and lower, carrying endless sadness and helplessness.
"But you know what? I don't want to forget him at all. But he doesn't want me to remember him." Shen Wanning raised her head, stared at Lu Jinchuan's face that looked like her ex-girlfriend with tearful eyes, and murmured to herself.
"Ugh..." A strong nausea came over Shen Wan Ning, she struggled to break free from Lu Jinchuan's embrace, and staggered to the ground. She closed her eyes tightly, frowned, and felt her stomach churning. The effect of alcohol made her feel as if the whole world was spinning, her head was so dizzy that she even seemed to be vomiting bile.
Tears flowed down her cheeks uncontrollably, mixed with snot, and covered her originally delicate face. At this moment, she no longer cared about her image, but instinctively leaned her head on Lu Jinchuan's legs.
"Shit!" Lu Jinchuan cursed in a low voice. He looked down at Shen Wanning, who was curled up at his feet like a kitten and sleeping soundly, and he couldn't help but feel angry. How could this woman fall asleep on him so casually? And she looked so defenseless and innocent, which made people angry and funny.
However, when he saw the mess on his clothes, he sighed helplessly. For some reason, as long as it was related to Shen Wanning, he could never stay out of it, and would always unconsciously care about and take care of her.
This night was quite a tiring one.
Shen Wanning kept mumbling incoherently in her sleep, sometimes calling out Lu Jinchuan's name, and sometimes crying. Lu Jinchuan could only sit by the bed and watch over her patiently.
It was not until the sky was turning pale and the first rays of sunlight in the morning came through the window that Shen Wanning finally calmed down and fell asleep. Even in her sleep, she still held Lu Jinchuan's hand tightly and refused to let go. Lu Jinchuan looked at her pitiful appearance and couldn't bear to pull his hand back. So he simply fell asleep beside the bed, letting Shen Wanning rely on him like a child.
"Ding Ding..." The phone woke Lu Jinchuan up, and he frowned impatiently. But he still tried to move as quietly as possible, for fear of waking up the person sleeping next to him.
Walking into the living room, Lu Jinchuan picked up the still ringing phone and pressed the answer button: "Hello."
"Mr. Lu, where are you? People from Tuohe Company have arrived and are waiting for you for a meeting." Secretary He Ningqin called. It was already this late and Mr. Lu should have arrived at the company anyway, but today, contrary to the norm, there was no one in the office.
"Let Assistant Zhang go. I have something to do right now." Lu Jinchuan glanced at the bedroom. She was still sleeping, and was sleeping very soundly at this moment.
"Well, OK. You go ahead." He was speechless on the phone. He hadn't been like this for a long time. Wouldn't this phenomenon only occur when he had Shen Wanning?
She rubbed her sore neck and stretched herself. Although she was not a person who stayed in bed a lot, wouldn't two or three hours of sleep be too little? The sunlight shone through the gaps in the curtains and sprinkled on her originally beautiful face. However, at this moment, she looked so haggard and pale, without any blood color at all.
Mrs. Wu is on vacation today.
He opened the refrigerator and found some ingredients to make some rice porridge. He started making breakfast.
