SCHS - Chapter 90
Chapter 90
Qin Zhen's shame level was three hundred percent right now, especially since last night she had actually made Wen Shixue cry and beg her to stop, acting fierce and wild, completely unlike herself. Everything else, like holding onto her and refusing to let go, shouting "wifey" and sweet-talking like crazy, paled in comparison to that one thing. That was the real major social death scene.
If the heavens gave her a chance to erase one memory point, she would definitely choose that segment without hesitation. If a time limit were to be added after this erasure, it would absolutely be forever!
Vice President Qin, the person in question, was now filled with regret, secretly vowing never to touch alcohol again, not a single drop. She planned to bribe the "little friend" with her favorite cola, attempting to muddle through.
Wen Shixue clearly wasn't buying it, saying with great dissatisfaction, "One bottle of cola? No way!"
"I won't allow you to look down on yourself like that!"
"That's the unknown side of the steady and proper Vice President Qin. Is the focus on the unknown side? No, it's on the steady and proper Vice President Qin! Just one bottle of cola, and you think you can make someone forget everything? Our Vice President Qin thinks too little of herself!"
She wouldn't allow it, absolutely not!
Qin Zhen: "..."
That was really thinking too highly of her. A truly upright person wouldn't lose control like that when drunk, practically throwing away all dignity.
Truly, the past is unbearable to recall.
She tentatively said, "...Add one more bottle."
"One bottle?" Wen Shixue repeated, her voice rising at the end, clearly still unsatisfied.
She hadn't touched her beloved cola since winter began. It was hard enough to get Qin Zhen to relent this one time. If she didn't secure more benefits for herself, how could her conscience bear it?!
Qin Zhen slowly lowered the hand covering her face, looking shyly at the corner of the dining table: "Shixue, drinking too much isn't good for your health."
If the matter wasn't so embarrassing, she would never have used cola to bargain with Wen Shixue—why did she have to remember? Why couldn't she just forget it completely?
Alcohol truly harms people.
Wen Shixue pouted playfully, "But I don't want to, I worked hard yesterday too. My throat is hoarse, my back aches, and there are still marks on my body. Want to see?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she shamelessly went to lift her clothes. The moment she saw Qin Zhen turn back, a hint of "everything is within expectations" appeared in her eyes, looking particularly sly.
On her lower back, there was a small patch of love bites, pink against white skin, very conspicuous, suddenly catching Qin Zhen's eye.
It seemed to be questioning her why she was so heartless after sleeping with her, not even letting her have a proper cola.
Wen Shixue hadn't lifted her clothes much, just revealing a bit of skin on her waist, when Qin Zhen quickly pressed them back down: "Don't look, it's cold, wear your clothes properly."
Their eyes met, and they suddenly fell into a tacit silence. Wen Shixue smiled at her, her eyes clearly reflecting Qin Zhen's blushing face. This was the first time she had seen her blush so intensely, as if she would catch fire any moment.
The more Wen Shixue looked, the redder Qin Zhen's face became. She couldn't help but pull her into a hug, holding her tightly, avoiding her gaze, and saying in a low, apologetic voice, "I'm sorry, Shixue, I didn't mean to yesterday. I thought when I was drunk, at most I'd mistake someone for someone else... I'm sorry."
"But you didn't mistake me," Wen Shixue said with a smile. "You remembered me clearly, and I'm very happy."
She hugged her back, comforting her gently, "You don't need to apologize, it's really nothing. You're only like this with me, not with everyone. Otherwise, why didn't you hug Hanhan jie, only me?"
"And, even when you were drunk, you were still thinking about pleasing me, remembering what I like and don't like."
"As long as I said I liked you, you would be especially happy. I don't know how many good deeds I did in my past life to meet such a lovely girlfriend like you."
"So I actually don't want to forget at all, because it's proof of how especially cute and how much you love me. And because I love you, I will love every side of you."
Although Qin Zhen was like a completely different person when drunk compared to her usual self, she wasn't constrained by her personality. She was more willing to express her love for Wen Shixue than usual, which could be said to be the most unrestrained and adorable side of her heart.
Wen Shixue couldn't simply delete it with a single click. What if this was a one-of-a-kind moment that would never happen again? Then she had to remember it well, remember it for a lifetime, so that when she was old and thought back, remembering that her lover was once so wild and adorable, she could smile knowingly. Wouldn't that be beautiful?
Qin Zhen listened quietly, her heart inexplicably feeling calm, as if this matter, with her gentle comfort, truly wasn't a big deal. Even though she had been embarrassed, she had also made Wen Shixue happy, letting her know how important and irreplaceable she was in her heart.
Like this... she wouldn't easily abandon her.
Wen Shixue gently patted her waist, saying seriously, "Vice President Qin, if you called me wifey, you have to marry me and be with me for a lifetime. You can't just call it out and act like a hooligan, got it?"
Qin Zhen smiled, holding her tightly, and answered like she did yesterday, "Mm, got it."
Even if the world didn't allow it, even if no one blessed them, she would continue to love her, pressing forward fearlessly.
Then Wen Shixue asked again, "Lao Qin, do you love me?"
Qin Zhen gave a serious "Mm."
Wen Shixue's tone suddenly shifted: "If you love me, let me have a few more bottles of cola! Four bottles! How about it?"
As an adult, she wanted both her wife's love and cola!
Qin Zhen: "..."
Why could her thoughts always turn so quickly, always catching people off guard?
But four bottles of cola... Qin Zhen thought about her behavior since winter began. When told to drink less carbonated drinks, she really did drink less, obediently brewing goji berries in her thermos every day, living a healthy lifestyle ahead of time, completely beyond reproach.
The child had been so good for so long, it was okay to have some occasionally. Four small bottles of cola were already very few, so she agreed.
Wen Shixue immediately pushed her luck: "I want a two-liter bottle, the kind I can hold and chug, thank you for the treat!"
Qin Zhen: "...?"
She thought she wanted small ones, but she was thinking of the biggest one??
And she wanted to chug it???
"No," the stern and impartial Vice President Qin strictly rejected the request.
...
Qin Zhen specifically waited until Yu Hanhan got off work before going to pick up her car, to avoid being bombarded by her anxious messages. As a result, she was naturally dragged out for a barbecue, making it easier for Yu Hanhan to gossip.
Qin Zhen couldn't get away to cook for Wen Shixue, so she sent her a text message telling her to order takeout and not go hungry.
While ordering, Yu Hanhan was about to order two beers to go with the barbecue, then paused and looked at Qin Zhen. Qin Zhen calmly said, "I'm not drinking." She added, "I quit."
If she got drunk again, who knew what crazy things she might do? Then the little devil at home wouldn't want her waist anymore.
Yu Hanhan readily agreed, crossing out the beer. After placing the order, she asked with a face full of curiosity, "Your quitting drinking is so sudden. Could it be that you threw a drunken tantrum at the little princess last night?"
Qin Zhen: "..."
That wasn't throwing a drunken tantrum, that was clearly acting wild...
Seeing that she didn't answer, Yu Hanhan felt the answer was pretty much confirmed. Her face immediately filled with sympathy as she looked at her: "That's too tragic, Qinqin. That little princess won't really dock your salary, will she? Although I saw her yesterday and thought she seemed to have a pretty good temper..."
Everyone around her came from ordinary families and didn't know much about the young masters and ladies born with silver spoons. Before meeting Wen Shixue,
she had thought she would be difficult to deal with, and her temper wouldn't be very friendly. Maybe she would even speak with disdain for poor people like them, just like in TV dramas, haughty and arrogant.
But it wasn't like that at all. However, having a good temper and docking employee salaries were two different things. No matter how good a boss was, they would get angry if their landmine was stepped on. And Qin Zhen had clearly mistaken Wen Shixue for someone else last night, clinging to her and refusing to let go. If she had even gotten physical later, wouldn't that be terrifying!
Yu Hanhan's imagination had already reached the point where Qin Zhen was expelled from the Wen Corporation for defiling the Wen family's little princess, and Wen Lianchang had issued a bounty on her head, forcing her to wander the world. She felt sympathetic and agreed, "Right, right, quit quickly. Otherwise, if you keep drinking like this, you might drink away your job."
Qin Zhen glanced at her, interrupting her wild thoughts: "Stop thinking such nonsense. Nothing happened to me."
Yu Hanhan stared at her intently for a moment, then asked, "Then why are you living together? No, why is she living at your place? Don't rich people have lots of houses?"
Qin Zhen calmly replied, "To sleep in."
Yu Hanhan said "Oh," then the next second let out a gasp: "Ah???"
Qin Zhen: "The neighborhood I live in is close to Chenfeng, and there are no empty rooms."
Yu Hanhan was incredulous: "That's it???"
"That's it," Qin Zhen said composedly. As long as she wasn't lying, she was very calm.
She hadn't expected that a casual suggestion from Department Head Huang back then, twisted by Wen Shixue, could send her such a cute wifey. Wen Shixue probably hadn't expected it either.
Yu Hanhan believed her, and it took her a while to say, dumbfounded, "Then President Wen, her goal is quite pure..."
Yu Hanhan: I don't understand what rich people are thinking. Is this why I'm poor!
The waiter brought the sliced meat to the table. Qin Zhen picked up the tongs and placed the tender meat slices onto the oiled grill. The meat gradually cooked, becoming fragrant and glistening, releasing an appetizing barbecue smell. She put a few slices on Yu Hanhan's plate, then heard her ask, "What about your little secretary?"
Qin Zhen stopped what she was doing and looked up at her.
Yu Hanhan said, "Does she know that you and President Wen are living together?" She added, "I don't think you should hide it from her. You like women, and you're living with another woman. If she finds out, she'll inevitably get jealous and upset, maybe even stay angry for a long time. This really affects your relationship."
Qin Zhen suddenly felt speechless. The guilt brought by deception arose spontaneously. Yu Hanhan was genuinely concerned about her love life, and she truly hadn't thought of the "little secretary" as Wen Shixue at all, deeply believing every word she said.
But her state of mind had changed now. The courage and love Wen Shixue gave her made her itching to act, casting aside her usual caution and prudence, often wanting to announce to the world that her lover was Wen Shixue.
Once a person is surrounded by love, they no longer fear expressing love or asking for love, because no matter the outcome, the people who love them will stay by their side, forever and ever.
Without changing expression, she picked up her phone, her fingers tapping back and forth on the screen. After a while, she put it down again, her gaze turning to Yu Hanhan, and spoke softly, "Hanhan, haven't you ever thought..."
"...that President Wen might be the little secretary?"
