Novel Full Chapter 17 - 17
"Hey... What brings you to the mall?" Zhang Qin Feng asked while smiling. Knowing that this girl will not be friendly to his pocket each time she caught him around, Zhang Qin Feng had the urge to sigh in secret.
"What? Can't a girl walk around the shopping mall? Are you looking down on me because I'm single and nobody wants me?" Tang Xin pouted and grabbed Zhang Qin Feng's arm.
"I didn't say that!" Zhang Qin Feng quickly responded.
"Then... Then bring me to eat something... I'm unhappy today..." Tang Xin said. Hearing what she said with that kind of expression made Zhang Qin Feng felt speechless, but then, Stein secretly communicates with him.
[She's speaking the truth, dear user. The red lines in her eyeballs show that she's been crying for a while. Her heartbeat is also beating irregularly, with a hint of exhaustion from overworking]
"Alright. I'll be treating today. What you want to eat?" hearing what Stein just reported made him felt somewhat uncomfortable to leave Tang Xin alone. Out of friendship, he nodded and agreed to her request without giving out a complaint.
"Really? I want to eat hotpot today! Let's order ten plates of tender lamb slices this time, with a spicy and sour combination soup!" Tang Xin pulled Zhang Qin Feng with her as they headed straight to one of the famous restaurants located outside of the Qingzhou Mall.
"What sauces do you want? Shall I make a mix of the best sauce I can do for you?" she seemed somewhat brightened up while being by Zhang Qin Feng's side. Ordering more platter as they finished the food one after another, the bill ended up at around 200 dollars when its time to pay.
"Let's go for a drink!" they continued by visiting a nearby establishment for a few beers and barbeque sticks.
"Do you know what that ***hole says? He wanted me to take naked photoshoots to advertise the product. Of course, I rejected him. But then, he started to make a fuss by..."
"Then... He keeps destroying my reputation by spreading rumors about I'm sleeping around and how I cheated men's money... I was so devastated to the point I went to..."
"Earlier... I was... Wuu... Wuu..."
After drinking, Tang Xin started to pour out all the stress that's been piling up in her mind. Even somebody as beautiful as Tang Xin would eventually be bothered by all kinds of trouble around her.
And perhaps it was due to her trust towards Zhang Qin Feng, she totally let go of her own while being with him. A few more bottles later, she finally collapsed.
"What do you want me to do now?" Zhang Qin Feng sighed. To think that she'll drink until she passes out on the spot.
[Dear user... If you need a suggestion, I'm able to point out 13 different places for you to engage in a sexual relationship with her. Also, from her attitude, the possibility of her accepting what happened after tonight is as high as 78%]
[This means, getting in bed with her will only bring more positive feedback compared to negative. Would you like me to search nearby for the best hotel?]
Stein's suggestions were like a living bait wriggling in front of Zhang Qin Feng as he stares at the vulnerable Tang Xin. Looking at her fair appearance with a blushed cheek, simple T-shirt, and short pants made his urge somewhat unsatiable.
Then, without a valid reason, Zhang Qin Feng moves his hand to Tang Xin and gives her a pat on her head.
His next action?
Pulling one of her hands up to allow himself to access more of Tang Xin's body, Zhang Qin Feng carried her like a princess as he carries her home. It was not weird for him to know where she stays because they used to be classmates, and for two whole years on top of that.
**Ding-Dong**
"Who is it ringing the bell so late?" a woman answered the door grumpily as she rubbed her eyes. But when she noticed it to be her daughter and a classmate of hers, her expression changed.
"You're Xiao-Feng, correct? Old Chen's nephew?" Tang Xin's mother asked as she opened the door for him to come in.
"Yes, aunt. It's the naughty Xiao-Feng that always climbs the school wall..." Zhang Qin Feng embarrassedly nodded as he put Tang Xin on the sofa.
"This girl... Don't she know about control? To drink until this drunk at this time... Luckily, you're the one with her, Xiao-Feng. Are you tired? Do you want some water?" Tang Xin's mother asked as she offered a glass of water to him.
"Thank you, aunt. It's my fault to ask her to drink with me. I'll make sure she doesn't drink so much next time if we're having a meal again." Zhang Qin Feng apologized, even though he wasn't the one that should be blamed for this.
"It's alright. As long it's Xiao-Feng, aunt can be at ease. This girl is always reckless and clumsy, but aunt knows that she's a thoughtful girl... Aunt is happy that you two still keep in touch until now. Make sure you take care of each other when you could, ok? Is the fatty that often followed behind you two still lives in Suihe City?" her mother continued.
"You mean Fatty Xie? Yes, he's still around. He's just living in the building across mine. We'll come over and visit you and Tang Xin when there's a chance."
"I'll be going as it's late now. I'll bother aunt to take care of Tang Xin..." Zhang Qin Feng nodded his head a few times as he excused himself.
"Alright then. Get home safely. Make sure you sent a text afterward. Don't make aunt worry because you return home late." Tang Xin's mother patted Zhang Qin Feng's shoulder as she sent him to the door.
"Thank you, aunt Tang... See you again." Zhang Qin Feng left after that.
Her mother went to the kitchen to fetch a glass of water afterward. Walking over to the living room and sits across Tang Xin, she chuckled after placing the glass on the table.
"Still acting? That silly boy is gone." her mother said.
"En..." Tang Xin moves and lying flat on the sofa. From how she looks, she's intending to spend her night sleeping here.
