Thinking of what happened outside the park yesterday morning, Zuo Yue suddenly frowned again. She looked at the cigarette that had already been extinguished and took out another one. After lighting it up, she stood in front of the window and took a few puffs. As she smoked, she looked at the smoke that was drifting in front of her eyes. It felt as if she had really become a different world from three years ago.
How did she feel when her mother told her those words?
At that time, she had searched for that person countless times in all the places where he could appear, but she could not find any trace of him. Moreover, she believed that he really wanted to never see her again in this life. What kind of feeling did she have?
Zuo Yue took another drag of the cigarette and was about to turn on the air conditioner when her phone rang in the bedroom.
Who was calling before dawn?
She quickly put out the cigarette and threw it into the dustbin. She turned around and went into the bedroom. When she picked up her phone and saw the caller ID, she immediately rolled her eyes at the phone screen. She took the phone and walked back to the window. She looked out and closed the window with her hand. Then, she drew the curtains and picked up the phone.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhy did you close the curtains? Did you know I was looking at you?â It was Yin Ruishengâs voice.
âIf you suddenly called me at this time, you must have seen me by the window. If I donât close the curtains quickly, do I want you to continue peeping?â
âItâs a pity that after peeping for so long, I didnât see anything I particularly wanted to see other than you smoking and drinking alone at home. Youâre even wearing a bathrobe when you come out of the shower.â
â Hmph!â Zuo Yue snorted.â Itâs precisely because I know that there are people like you around. Thatâs why I either close the curtains or put on my clothes and go out after showering. Thatâs why I wonât suffer such an invisible loss.ââ
âWhy are you smoking again?â Yin Ruisheng smiled. Recently, I often see you sitting at home drinking alone. Although you donât drink much, you seem to have something on your mind.â
âIs there? I donât think soâ¦Iâm just used to being a person who can only be suppressed.â Zuo Yue answered ambiguously.
Yin Ruisheng smiled again.â Itâs Sunday today. Itâs rare that I donât have any work on the weekend. Are you busy today?â If youâre free, why donât you come out for a drink?â
âSure,â Zuo Yue leaned her head lazily on the back of the sofa.ââYouâre treating?â
âOf course. How can I let you pay for a drink with a girl?â
âThe wine I drink is very expensive.â
âWhatâs wrong? Are you afraid that I canât afford to hire you?â
âNoâ¦â
âDonât say Iâm treating you to drinks, even if I have to raise you, I can still afford it. Isnât it the Zuo family in Los Angeles? Our two families should be considered to be well-matched. If we really want to raise you, both parents wonât have any objections, right?â
â.. Do you want to change the topic?â
âAre you afraid that Iâll chase you?â
âNo, there have been too many people chasing me these past few years. Iâm already numb to it. I just didnât want to hurt your face.âZuo Yue laughed.
Yin Ruisheng also smiled.â Alright, stop smoking. Itâs still early. Go back to sleep. Iâll pick you up in the afternoon and take you out for a drink.ââ
âAlright, you decide the location. Iâm only responsible for drinking.â
âHurry up and go to sleep. Youâre so young, arenât you afraid of getting dark circles?â
Zuo Yue smiled and explained. After all, she slept too early last night, so she was not sleepy at all.
After hanging up the phone, she leaned back on the sofa and turned to look at the wine cabinet not far away. She raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, feeling that it was the right choice not to return to Los Angeles for the next few years.
If her mother knew that not only did she often drink in the past few years, but she also learned to smoke, she might be so angry that she would directly lock her in the small attic in the backyard and forcefully discipline her.
She fell in love with her uncle, played truant on the excuse of illness, and changed her studies for no reasonâ¦
Smoking, drinkingâ¦Staying up lateâ¦
A girl who could have received a high-level family education had ended up like this. It was really disappointing.
Zuo Yuetan smiled and raised his hand to cover his forehead.
*****
In Zuo Yueâs impression, Yin Ruisheng had a very calm personality. She had thought that the car he drove would be a white one or something that looked more peaceful and handsome. She never expected it to be a coquettish blue Lamborghini.
When she had just left the apartment and saw the car parked by the roadside, she looked in that direction with a strange expression.
It was not until the car window rolled down and Yin Ruisheng took off his sunglasses and winked at her that Zuo Yue walked over with a look of amazement. When she sat in the front passenger seat, she turned to look at Yin Ruishengâs stylish shirt and slim jeans and could not help but exclaim,ââThe entertainment industry can really change a personâ¦Itâs simply a change from head to toeâ¦â
âAre you saying that Iâve changed a lot?â Yin Ruisheng chuckled.â
â Big, I feel like youâve turned from a brother next door to a playboy in the entertainment industry. Youâve been in a lot of scandals over the past few years. If it werenât for the few good TV dramas and your good looks, you would have become the most popular scumbag in Korea.ââ
âWhatâs there to believe in those gossip news? Itâs all the entertainment companies âdoing. When I chose to be an artiste, I didnât expect it to be so complicated. I only came out to join the entertainment industry after falling out with my family.â
Hearing this, Zuo Yue did not deliberately mock him anymore. However, when she saw Yin Ruishengâs style, Zuo Yue suddenly smiled again.âWhich job did you just rush back from? Your hair is so high. If you really bring me out for a drink, people will probably think that I like non-mainstream people like you.â
â.. How is it non-mainstream?â Yin Ruisheng gave her a sideways glance.â Itâs just drinking. Arenât you picky about my hairstyle and style?â Shouldnât my girlfriend be picky about this?â
â..âZuo Yue was speechless for a moment and used silence as a pause switch.
Seeing that she was silent all of a sudden, Yin Ruisheng chuckled.ââWhat do you want to drink?â
âWhatever.â
âDo you want to go to a bar? Or maybe a simple meal and some red wine at the hotel?â
âAnything.â
Yin Ruisheng was about to drive to the next road when he suddenly stopped. Zuo Yue looked up and saw that the big and luxurious bar opposite was the one she often went to. Her expression froze. Before she could say anything, Yin Ruisheng unbuckled his seatbelt.âSince itâs all casual, letâs find the nearest one. This bar opened a few years ago, and I heard from some friends that itâs not bad. The boss is very good at dealing with people, and he seems to have a strong background. Drinking is very safe, and nothing will happen.â
Zuo Yue looked at the entrance of the bar and did not get out of the car. She only said lightly,ââDonât you know which company is behind this bar?â
Yin Ruisheng was about to open the car door when he paused and turned to look at her.ââWhich one?â
It seemed like he really didnât know.
However, it made sense. The KP Corporation did not announce these things. If she had not heard from the bartender that day, she would not have thought that the real owner of this bar was that person.
