The simple ring seed different now, Su Ziceng curiously looked at it, forgetting that her hand was still in Pello’s hand, letting him slide the ring on her finger, forgetting to refuse.
"I’ve given it a new na, called the Wish Ring. The ring is divided into two, fitting on top of each other, and can rotate around the finger. Every three rotations, it can fulfill a wish," Pello said, gently playing with Su Ziceng’s ring, ticklish and slick. The scattered diamonds, arranged haphazardly on the ring’s surface, made Su Ziceng feel dizzy as if she was lacking oxygen, perhaps due to the alcohol.
"Do you know the story of Alnis and Venus?" Seeing that Su Ziceng had not taken off the ring, Pello smiled and drained his glass. The alcohol mixed into his blood made them overlook the odd feelings in their hearts. The ending of a mythological story is tragically beautiful. As for how a real-life story ends, no one knows.
On the eve of Valentine’s Day, when Su Ziceng walked out of the bar leaning on Pello’s arm, the dazzling neon lights outside made her squint, and snow fell from the sky, turned colorful under the neon lights.
Chang Chi sat in the car, watching Hang Yishao who had been busy outside all evening. She had insisted on going out tonight to visit a temple up on the hill to pray for her father, but unexpectedly the car broke down midway. After calling a tow truck company, which was delayed due to the holiday, it took hours before they arrived.
On the car seat, there was a tie Chang Chi had given, a light red akin to the cheeks of a young girl.
"Xiao Chi, try making the call again," Hang Yishao once again opened the hood of the car, feeling helpless as he faced the tangled wires.
"I did," Chang Chi glanced at her phone and made another call. In her heart, she wished the tow truck wouldn’t co at all, as it was nearly midnight and there were no other vehicles on the mountain road.
It was freezing cold, and Hang Yishao stamped his feet before sitting back in the car.
"It’s good that we filled up on fuel," Hang Yishao felt a bit warr in the car’s heating system.
"Have so tea to warm up," Chang Chi moved closer, her coat already thrown on the cramped back seat, her black tight sweater outlining her slender figure clearly.
While speaking, Chang Chi’s soft chest rubbed back and forth over Hang Yishao’s back of the hand. Hang Yishao withdrew his hand, alert. He and Chang Chi were at a good point in their relationship, and he had no intention of taking it further.
"It’s Gongju tea my mother brought back from Huangshan, tastes very nice," Chang Chi, undiscouraged, brought the pre-prepared thermos flask to Hang Yishao’s mouth.
Beneath his nose, indeed there was a fresh chrysanthemum fragrance. Hang Yishao felt thirsty and took it. Just as he was about to drink, a light flashed on the mountain road followed by the sound of a blaring horn.
"They’re finally here," Hang Yishao pushed the tea away, spilling so hot water. Chang Chi recoiled her hand, annoyed, watching the tow truck outside. It’s frustrating that they did not co earlier and chose such a critical mont. Hang Yishao almost drank the drugged tea.
Chang Chi, upset, sat back in the car, looking outside, her hands caressing her sweater. For today, she had specifically worn a sexy set of lingerie, intending to present herself as a "Valentine’s Day gift."
Regardless, Chang Chi got ho nearly at midnight. The entire Su Family was silent. She was about to sneak back to her room when she bumped into soone.
Su Ziceng was standing at the stairway, looking at her.
"Scaring people in the middle of the night," Chang Chi cursed, her mood already sour from the unaccomplished tasks of the day.
"Scared like that, must have done sothing guilty, right?" Su Ziceng retorted.
"Guilty?" Chang Chi’s eyes glead, like a cat that had caught a mouse, pulling out sothing from her handbag with great triumph and throwing it in front of Su Ziceng. Although it wasn’t used tonight, just to infuriate Su Ziceng made it worth the ticket price. At this late hour, if Su Ziceng scread, it would wake up the entire house.
Su Ziceng touched the cold object in her hand, looked down, and her eyes popped out. Contraceptive...
Su Ziceng’s face, pale as paper from drinking, couldn’t believe things had progressed this far between them. Her hands gripped the stair’s wooden railing, her nails digging into the pear wood.
"What’s going on, making all this noise in the middle of the night," Chang i had been paying attention to the noise outside and had heard the commotion by the stairs just before midnight.
"Mom," Chang Chi saw Chang i and dared not make more noise. Chang i looked at the object in Su Ziceng’s hand, then at Chang Chi’s face, noting her hair and clothes were still neat, realizing that Chang Chi was just provoking Su Ziceng.
The room lights turned on, and Su Ziceng also saw Chang Chi’s deanor and relaxed a bit, but soon felt another wave of indignation.
At this mont, Su Qingzhang ca out of a room, but the direction he ca from... froze the three won at the stairway; it was from the direction of the guest room.
And behind Su Qingzhang, stood Yan Wuxu with crimson eyes and a blush on her cheeks.
The midnight chis rang out, Chang i’s face instantly turned pale, and Chang Chi was stunned.
Su Ziceng was at a loss for words; she had been kept in the dark by Yan Wuxu, though she had played a part in facilitating this event, things seed to have gone too far.
Standing behind Su Qingzhang, Yan Wuxu bowed her head, silent, having seen the changes in everyone’s expression already.
Su Ziceng thought, after tonight, how she would face Yan Wuxu. The sa question was torturing the other three mbers of the Su Family. (To be continued.
