She covered her eyes and waited for a while; the pain brought tears, causing her eyeliner to smudge and darken around her eyes, and her lipstick was all over her face.
Once she rubbed her eyes and the pain eased, Shen Yiran said, "Go and wash off your makeup!"
Dudu imdiately retorted, "Who do you think you are! You’re not anyone to ! I’ll do whatever I want!"
Shen Yiran’s voice turned severe, "Are you going or not?!"
Dudu imdiately softened, pursed her lips, and said, "You have to wait for outside then."
Shen Yiran simply looked down at her without nodding or saying no; Dudu knew his non-rejection was a reluctant agreent, so she hurried to the nearby girls’ restroom.
After she walked away, Shen Yiran faintly smiled, touched his neck, and found a bit of lipstick color on his fingers.
Facing her repeated [temptations] and [provocations], he really didn’t know how much longer he could hold himself back.
This girl, why is she so persistent? Even though he behaved so badly, to the point even he thought he went too far, yet she still insisted.
Sotis he felt that he was not as good as her.
It’s because he loved her so much; that’s why he was so cautious, not wanting her to suffer even a bit, not even verbally.
"Su Bao!" She rushed over and hugged him from behind. Shen Yiran imdiately put on a stern face and pulled her away.
Seeing her dress, he took off his jacket and threw it on her, "If you wear this kind of outfit next ti, I’ll tell your dad."
"No way! I won’t wear it again next ti!" If her dad knew, she probably wouldn’t be allowed out for a long ti, and then she wouldn’t be able to find him.
Shen Yiran knew the best way to deal with her, watching her put on his jacket that just barely fit her.
Dudu shook the long sleeves, buttoning up while saying, "Su Bao, are you concerned about ?"
Shen Yiran ignored her question, turned around and said, "Be ho before nine; I’ll call your father."
"Take ho!" Dudu ran up to him, grabbed his arm to stop him from leaving, "We still have unfinished business from this morning!"
Shen Yiran stopped, turned his head to look at her, and Dudu said, "It wasn’t my fault this morning! She was the one who cursed at first! And I just lightly touched her; she fell on her own!"
He showed little change in expression upon hearing this, prompting Dudu to ask, "Don’t you believe ?!"
"I won’t pursue this matter."
"No way! You need to apologize! You were an to this morning."
Shen Yiran displayed impatience, looked fiercely at her, while Dudu sniffled, afraid he would again think she was troubleso. She murmured softly, "Fine, I won’t make you apologize this ti, but next ti, don’t be an to without knowing the facts..."
He didn’t respond, striding away with large steps. Dudu, unable to keep up in her high heels, tracked his path, identifying the location of his private room before sending him a text, "Rember to take ho."
Gu Qimiao saw Dudu enter, wearing a large n’s jacket, her heavy makeup removed, looking in good spirits, so she teased her, "What’s got you so happy after hanging out with your Su Bao?"
"Miaomiao, you’re so cheeky! By the way, will Brother Shen pick you up tonight?"
Gu Qimiao paused, "He probably will."
"Then tell him to co around nine; we need to leave by then."
Gu Qimiao nodded; she also needed to leave around that ti, still adhering to her rule of sleeping by ten.
Nearing nine, Shen Yanchen did call, asked for the location and said he was driving over to pick her up.
Dudu couldn’t wait, said goodbye to Gu Qimiao and the others hastily, gave Shen Yiran a call, then stood by the door waiting for him.
The call didn’t go through; he hung up, but simultaneously ca out, followed by several clients, exchanging pleasantries. Dudu curiously peeked into the private room, relieved to see no suspicious won inside.
As they descended, Shen Yanchen’s car hadn’t arrived yet. Dudu suggested waiting for Shen Yanchen to pick them up, but considering the rare harmony between Dudu and Shen Yiran, Gu Qimiao said, "It’s okay, he just called, he’ll be here soon, you guys go ahead."
Shen Yiran also saw the car approaching from a distance, said nothing, and pulled Dudu away gently; Dudu hopped away, waving goodbye to Gu Qimiao.
Worried Dudu might sprain her ankle in her high heels, Shen Yiran slowed his pace.
"Su Bao..."
Shen Yiran glanced at her, then looked forward again.
Dudu hooked her arm around his, kept looking up at him, "Will you marry her?"
"That’s not your business."
"Your business is mine; of course, it’s my business too. Can I crash your wedding?"
Shen Yiran’s face darkened; she continued with a light tone as if talking about sothing inconsequential, "When you get married, I’ll wear the most beautiful wedding dress to attend your wedding, just as if you were marrying ..."
"Su Yutong, you’re past the age of being unruly, you should grow up."
Dudu suddenly let go of his arm, lowered her head, and said softly, "I wish I never had to grow up, living in childhood forever would be so nice."
"You used to take care of so well, I don’t understand why you’ve changed suddenly."
Shen Yiran exhaled through his nose, ignoring her sentintality, quickened his pace toward the parking lot.
Dudu tightened her grip on the sleeves, watching his back, suddenly said, "I don’t want you to take ho anymore; I’ll go by myself."
Shen Yiran’s hand paused on the car door, he glanced at her, got into the car, started the engine, and drove away right in front of her.
Dudu’s eyes imdiately welled up; she was foolish to think he would co back to comfort her...
Standing in the dark, eerie parking lot for a while, his car vanished from sight. She wiped away the tears, removed her high heels, bent down to carry them, and walked out barefoot.
Shen Yiran’s car circled around and stopped by the front door, he watched her as she ca out.
The petite figure in his oversized jacket, walking along the street barefoot, looked like a child who snuck out in adult clothing and got lost.
He followed her, trailed a long distance behind, she wiped her tears as she walked, probably exhausted, she finally stopped at the roadside and hailed a taxi.
He followed her, watched her enter her ho before he left.
Perhaps she feels sad now, but with ti, she’ll forget him. She would have lots of boys around her who liked her, right?
Once she gives up, finds soone who loves her, marries and has kids, that’s the love and future she deserves.
