Chapter 3128 - Innocence 49

When love is at risk

Will we be terribly scarred

Will we all suffer miserably

I really want to love her

But the eyes lie

It’s easier to hide

Lest feelings become complicated

I really want to love her

But reason disagreed

Is retreating a solution?

Who has an answer for me

Oh

Love teaches us not to let go…”

Love teaches us not to let go.

I drank my beer in silence. However, the beer that went in my mouth seemed to run out of my eyes. My vision gradually became blurry and I couldn’t see clearly anymore.

I quickly rubbed my eyes and downed one can after another.

Su Qi got a little upset. He snatched the beer from my hand and chided in an angry tone that I’ve not heard him use on me before, “You can’t drink anymore!”

I insisted, “I want more!”

I was sad. It felt as though something was stuck fast in my chest. I couldn’t swallow it, nor could I spit it out!

I wondered if getting drunk would make me feel better.

Even if it was for just one night, it was enough to save me one night of suffering.

I finally understood why some people liked to drink when they were sad. It wasn’t because they were pretentious, but because it could cover up some of the pain and it enabled them to deal with it numbly. Although the pain would probably return in its entirety again the next day, but at least for a short time, it would alleviate their suffering.

Perhaps it was because I had drunk too much, I felt my stomach churning. I rushed to the washroom and bent over the basin. I retched, but nothing came out.

Su Qi walked over with some green tea. He unscrewed the cap and handed the bottle to me, saying helplessly, “Stop drinking already. If you drink any more, you’ll really get drunk! And that will feel horrid!”

I took the green tea and drank most of it. I was unsteady on my feet for a short time, but my mind slowly cleared.

I looked up at him. He might have been startled to see my bloodshot eyes and the swollen lids.

“Xiachun, something’s wrong with you today…”

I suddenly hugged him tightly.

A crazy thought flashed across my mind!

Because I had taken the initiative to hug him, Su Qi’s body instantly stiffened. He looked at me blankly, unable to tell if this was happening because of the alcohol or because I couldn’t contain my feelings.

However, the next second, I did something even crazier.

I took his face in my hands and gently kissed his lips.

Then I drew myself back and looked at him earnestly. Noticing that he still looked startled, I smiled through my tears. “Don’t you like me, Su Qi?” I asked dryly.

“Uh huh…”

Su Qi nodded. “I’ve liked you for a long time. Do you still doubt it?”

“Then let’s date, shall we?”

After I said that, Su Qi was stunned for about five seconds before a smile appeared on his face. He looked most pleasantly surprised.

“You’re finally agreeing to date me?!”

He looked at me seriously. “Xiachun, you’re not joking, are you? Or are you just drunk and spouting nonsense? Will you regret it tomorrow?”

“No, I promise to date you!”

Su Qi smiled radiantly and took me into his embrace. Then, he whispered into my ear, “Little fool, do you like me too?”

I replied calmly, “No… I don’t like you.”

Su Qi was taken aback by my reply. He looked at me with a baffled expression.

“If you don’t like me, why do you agree to date me?”
