Chapter 38



Chapter 38 (I Have Promised Now) Hard to Refuse His Love Profession in Public

Zhang An’an dragged up Wang Xiang and said to Chen Wanxin, “He is drunk. Don’t take it seriously. I will take him back and ask clearly.” While saying, she was dragging Wang Xiang to the boys’ dormitory.

Chen Wanxin smiled and didn’t move. Her face was hiding in the shade of the tree and couldn’t be seen clearly in the shadow.

The party continued. Even Lin Wenxi couldn’t help but drink a few cups. After two cups with Zhou Nannan, who was newly introduced by Shu Xiaoman, he was already drunk.

“Zhou Nannan, Wang Zhengjuan, you…” Lin Wenxi said hesitantly.

“You don’t like it?” Zhou Nannan smiled faintly. Lin Wenxi somehow thought of dandelion.

“No, you’re really good,” he said loudly. Lin Wenxi was drunk and acted bravely. He didn’t even know why he would support them. Zhou Nannan suddenly burst into tears and took a drink. She said to Lin Wenxi, gently, “In the future, this can be said quietly with me. Don’t do it in front of so many people, don’t say so loud.”

Zhou Nannan and Wang Zhengjuan knew each other since high school. Many stories had happened between them. Wang Zhengjuan, even though the daughter of a successful businessman, had been despised because of the subtle relationship with her. Even their best boyfriend wouldn’t admit their relationship. She didn’t expect Lin Wenxi, who first met, would be so friendly and honest. How could she not cry?

“Why can’t I say it out loud? I want to say, I… I like… Zhao…” His mouth was covered by Zhou Nannan. “Some things, mutual understanding would be alright. Why bother to announce it to the public? Zhengjuan just didn’t understand this!”

Shu Xiaoman heard clearly and was about to clap when Lin Wenxi finished the whole name. But she calmed down when she heard what Zhou Nannan said. She remembered what Zhang An’an had said in their dormitory, “It is interesting to make fun of each other. But it would be impossible if you admit the truth.”

Wang Zhengjuan walked through the crowd and raised her toast. She said, “Everyone is having a good time. We’ll have lots of opportunities to drink in the future. Today, I will not bother you anymore. I will pay my tribute and drink up first.” She drank the beer and turned the glass upside down to show that she finished the drink.

“Nannan, it’s time to go to our team to have a drink, get to know each other! You have plenty of time with your roomie in the future.” Wang Zhengjuan squatted on her knees. Zhou Nannan sighed and walked away by herself. Wang Zhengjuan panicked and chased after her.

Lin Wenxi thought what just happened and felt grateful for Zhou Nannan.

“Wenxi, come here! You were such a man when you climbing. Didn’t like Wang Xiang. He was so pussy and rumbled all the way!” Zheng Kai filled a glass of wine and handed it to Lin Wenxi. Lin Wenxin was not so pale anymore after Zhou Nannan took her hands away.

Lin Wenxi took over the glass of wine and dried it up. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. The paper towel had been handed over from Zhao Yuan. Lin Wenxi took the paper towel and satisfactorily wiped his lips. He was already dazzled.

 

“I propose this toast for brother Kai. Thank you for your help all the way.” Lin Wenxi gave the drink to Zheng Kai, who drunk it without hesitation. Zheng Kai had a drink with everyone around, especially with Wang Xiang. He and Zhao Yuan had been drinking for more than a dozen cups. Seeing Zhao Yuan was still alright, he decided to drink with him again after putting others down.

Zheng Kai was not an alcoholic, but he hadn’t met a rival when he drank. If someone toasted him back, he needed to have another drink. So he filled his cup again and handed it over to Lin Wenxi. Zhao Yuan suddenly reached out and said, “You have put down many people, leave some sober ones. I’ll drink this cup with you.”

“No!” Lin Wenxi said. Chen Wanxi was also there. She also said it at the same time. Everyone was staring at both of them.

Chen Wanxin smiled lightly. “You can’t spoil a man. What is your relationship with him? Why do you drink for him?”

Zhao Yuan didn’t know how to answer. Chen Wanxin said again, “He is your roommate. Isn’t Zheng Kai your roommate? You are so partial one of them…”

Zhao Yuan was puzzled and looked at Chen Wanxin. He wondered what was going on. More than a month ago, it was here, Chen Wanxin smiled at him and said, “You turn him into a gay then I’ll date with you.”

Chen Wanxin smiled soundlessly. She took out the wine glass and handed it to Zhao Yuan. She said, “Zhao Yuan, on the first day of military training, you said you’ll chase me, now I agree.”

Zhao Yuan thought he misheard it. “What did you say?”

“I said, I agree to be your girlfriend!” Chen Wanxin said loudly.

The boys in the class gathered around and wanted to hear about the story that Chen Wanxin, the campus belle, how to be taken in such a short time. When everyone saw that it was Zhao Yuan, they all knew that they were born to be with each other and started to cheer.

Zhao Yuan stunned.

Zhao Yuan didn’t know since when he had felt this bet was meaningless. He was planning to play cool with Chen Wanxin, who would be too arrogant to date with him. Or he could find a time and explain the bet to her. If Chen Wanxin was making trouble, he also had an excuse. They were both making jokes and didn’t owe each other anything since Chen Wanxin joked about turning Lin Wenxi into a gay.

He didn’t expect Chen Wanxin would confess in public.

“What should I say? No, I was joking? Or, tell her about the bet? Or refuse her because I haven’t got what she wants?” Zhao Yuan struggled in his mind. He looked at Lin Wenxi, who swayed toward Zhang Dong with a glass of wine.

“Is he angry? Or dodged away because he doesn’t want me to be embarrassed?

“But, why did I look at Wenxi?”

“Wanxin, I’m not good enough for you. I didn’t know you enough. And I was impulsive. But now I feel like…” Zhao Yuan was trying to find out what to say. Chen Wanxin walked gently toward Zhao Yuan and kissed him.

Zhao Yuan looked at her with eyes opened wide. Chen Wanxin lowered her head slightly and smiled. “Because of Zheng Kai, or… Lin Wenxi.”

Zhao Yuan shook his head. “We are not right for each other.”

“That also gave me three months, be my boyfriend. We’ll see!” Chen Wanxin whispered.

The applause came from the surrounding crowd. Zheng Kai had stepped away from the table.

“What do you say? Are we right for each other?” Chen Wanxin smiled and turned to face a group of young men who had already become crazy.

“Yes!” A heartfelt blessing.

Not far away, Lin Wenxi raised his glass and said, “Zhang Dong, thank you.” The glass suddenly trembled and fell. Zhang Dong smiled slightly and reached out quickly. He held the glass firmly and returned it to Wenxi’s hand. He said, “Pay attention if you want to thank me.”

“No!” A clear, loud sound rang out. The bottle cracked and the wine in it splashed.
