Chapter 941 Drunk
Sheng Qingzhou knew this kid had no good intentions.
"I've already said before, there's nothing between me and her."
It didn't exist in the past, and it won't exist in the future.
Zhong Lingxiu came out of the private room and happened to hear this.
She looked pale.
She never expected that Sheng Qingzhou, who had been so kind to her in the past and was the only source of warmth for her during high school, would say such heartless things.
Xu Chang noticed Zhong Lingxiu and exchanged glances with Sheng Qingzhou.
Sheng Qingzhou turned around nonchalantly and saw Zhong Lingxiu behind him.
"Qingzhou." Zhong Lingxiu bit her lower lip, trying hard not to cry.
"You heard what I just said, didn't you?"
Sheng Qingzhou felt that since Zhong Lingxiu had already heard it, she might as well make things clear now.
Zhong Lingxiu refused to admit it: "We haven't seen each other in a long time. Can you have a meal with me?"
"I remember you took me out for hot pot once in high school—"
Although it was winter and the weather was very cold, Zhong Lingxiu was dressed very thinly.
It wasn't that her family didn't have money to buy clothes, but rather that her younger sister had taken them.
The reason was that her sister's clothes got wet.
Zhong Lingxiu silently endured the cold. When school was over, her parents hurriedly picked up her younger sister, saying they were going to take her to her maternal grandmother's house, but they forgot about Zhong Lingxiu at school.
Sheng Qingzhou offered to take Zhong Lingxiu home. On the way, they passed a hot pot restaurant, and he took her in for a hot pot meal.
At the time, Sheng Qingzhou gave his coat to Zhong Lingxiu, which caused him to catch a cold and have to go to the hospital for three days of intravenous infusion.
Those things happened so long ago, but when Zhong Lingxiu brought them up, it felt like they happened just yesterday.
“I’ve already eaten,” Sheng Qingzhou declined Zhong Lingxiu’s offer.
"Can't you just eat a little bit with me?" Zhong Lingxiu reached out and tugged at Sheng Qingzhou's sleeve again.
She often did this when she was studying, and Sheng Qingzhou would soften his heart whenever he saw her do it.
But not anymore.
Sheng Qingzhou recalled how, in the past, whenever her sister tugged at her sleeve, it was because she tolerated her younger sister and didn't argue with her.
Even though she was the one who was wronged, she still had to comfort him.
The softest part of a young person's heart will be pierced.
But adults won't.
Zhong Lingxiu did not resist, and the end result was that she became her younger sister's shadow at home, and even a blood bag.
But what does this have to do with anyone else?
No one pressured her.
Even when Sheng Qingzhou wanted to help her, she refused.
"The opportunity to go abroad is yours, why should you give it to Zhong Lingyu?"
Sheng Qingzhou's question came out of nowhere.
Zhong Lingxiu was caught off guard and turned pale.
"Qingzhou, this matter is complicated, and it's all in the past."
"I don't want to talk about it anymore, and please don't force me, okay?"
Zhong Lingxiu is still as timid as ever.
Even Sheng Qingzhou couldn't stand it anymore.
"Okay, didn't you want to eat?"
"Let's go, after this meal, we'll go our separate ways."
Sheng Qingzhou agreed to go in, and Zhong Lingxiu then looked at Xu Chang: "Xu Chang, do you want to come along?"
“Ayu may also have something to say to you.”
"She said you used to take good care of her, and she won't try to ruin your relationship with your fiancée. Consider this dinner a farewell—"
Zhong Lingxiu spoke very carefully, but Xu Chang found it extremely annoying.
"Alright, alright, let's eat. Should I get you two more bottles of wine?"
Xu Chang was just saying it in anger.
But Zhong Lingxiu seemed not to understand his tone and said, "No need, we've already ordered."
Xu Chang: "..." You two sisters had hot pot and then drank alcohol, huh?
Zhong Lingxiu single-handedly brought two men back to the private room, which Zhong Lingyu was somewhat surprised by.
However, her gaze lingered between Sheng Qingzhou and Xu Chang.
Ultimately, it fell on Xu Chang.
"Brother Chang, Qingzhou, please sit down."
Zhong Lingyu stood up and pulled out chairs for the two of them, then poured them some wine.
"I'm sorry, I was ignorant before."
"May I offer you a toast first?"
Zhong Lingyu drank quite a bit of wine, and Zhong Lingxiu's cheeks also turned red from drinking.
These two sisters were really putting in all their effort to drink—oh, no, to apologize.
Finally, when Zhong Lingxiu raised her glass and looked at Sheng Qingzhou, Sheng Qingzhou pressed down on her glass: "That's enough, stop drinking."
"Qingzhou, do you look down on me?" Zhong Lingxiu turned her head to look at the only light in her youth.
She really liked Sheng Qingzhou, but her younger sister said she liked him too.
From a young age, she was taught by her family to give way to her younger sister.
She always had to give way to her younger sister because her sister had already been giving way to her in the womb.
She couldn't refuse; whatever her younger sister liked had to belong to her.
Even if it's your boyfriend.
This was the first person she ever liked, and the only person she ever liked.
Because his gaze was always on himself, not on his lively and cheerful younger sister.
In Zhong Lingxiu's opinion, this alone is enough for her to like him for a lifetime.
pity--
"Let me have another drink. I'm sorry, Sheng Qingzhou."
Even if her younger sister says she doesn't like Sheng Qingzhou anymore, she still can't be with Sheng Qingzhou.
Because she could tell that Sheng Qingzhou no longer had eyes for her.
Zhong Lingxiu's eyes were very red, and she was only one step away from crying.
On Zhong Lingyu's end, she was also drinking with Xu Chang.
However, unlike here, Zhong Lingyu was drinking Xu Chang's beer.
Of the four people, three got drunk.
"I'm driving, and I don't drink." Sheng Qingzhou refused Zhong Lingxiu with just one sentence, leaving Zhong Lingxiu with no choice but to get herself drunk.
"I'll take you home." Sheng Qingzhou, true to his gentlemanly manners, stood up before the other person could even agree.
"Brother Chang, shall we have some more?"
Zhong Lingyu waved to her sister and Sheng Qingzhou as they were about to leave.
Xu Chang also stood up unsteadily.
"No, if I drink any more, Wang Siyun will break my legs."
It's Wang Siyun again!
Zhong Lingyu gritted her teeth: "She wouldn't do that. How could Sister Siyun be so unkind?"
"She's your fiancée, shouldn't you treat her well?"
Hiss—Sheng Qingzhou's teeth ached from hearing it.
Why must a fiancée be good to him?
Xu Chang, that bastard, has always been resistant to Wang Siyun; no wonder she's not going to treat him well.
"Xu Chang, are you leaving or not?" Sheng Qingzhou couldn't stand it anymore.
He urged Xu Chang.
Xu Chang quickly said that he had to leave.
When he went out, he searched everywhere for Wang Siyun.
The receptionist came over and said that Ms. Wang had already left.
They left half an hour ago!
Xu Chang's heart skipped a beat. Although his brain was already a mess from the alcohol, he knew that Wang Siyun was probably angry.
"Qingzhou, you should take both sisters back with you. I have a headache, so I'm going home first."
Xu Chang finished speaking and left without waiting for Sheng Qingzhou's reply.
Looking at the drunk Zhong Lingxiu and the confused Zhong Lingyu, Sheng Qingzhou felt the headache of being betrayed by his buddy for the first time!
