A Girl Conquers the World Through Her Tears

Chapter 25

Zhu Liheng looked around at the stunned crowd, and his eyes fell on Lin Jianzhi, who was slumped over the table.

What a crybaby, evidently not all talk.

Although Zhu Liheng's gaze went to Lin Jianzhi first, he greeted Teacher Hu Tan first: “Teacher Hu.”

Hu Tan nodded, a matronly smile on her face.

Zhu Liheng walked towards Lin Jianzhi.

The whole class held their breath, their gazes following him, and many whispered to each other.

“So handsome!”

“I want a boyfriend who wears white shirts too.”

“Me me me! I'll wear one!”

“I think you may have misunderstood something...”

Right now, Lin Jianzhi had no rationality left. She was drunk to the point of passing out, crying herself to exhaustion.

She only felt someone approaching, and instinctively looked up.

“Oh...Zhu Liheng...”

Her voice sounded like a cat stretching lazily.

Zhu Liheng felt his heart melting!

The next second.

Lin Jianzhi directly reached out and put her arms around Zhu Liheng's waist.

Right in front of everyone, she threw herself into his embrace.

Lin Jianzhi: "Wah...wah wah...!"

Zhu Liheng was startled for a moment, and patted her back: "Why did you drink so much?"

Lang Shu weakly argued from the side: "She didn't drink that much..."

Teacher Hu Tan took out her phone with one hand and signaled Lang Shu to shut up with the other.

She was going to start taking pictures!

Only then did Lang Shu react that he should be taking photos. He frantically looked around the room for his phone, but had no idea where he had put it.

Lin Jianzhi cried and hiccuped. She was long past knowing what she was doing.

Drunk, she had no strength to stand on her own. All she felt was the world spinning as she leaned closer and closer to the ground.

So Zhu Liheng simply swept her up into his arms.

Carrying her, he walked out of the private room.

He had gone ahead because he needed to greet the people in the next room, so he stood there holding Lin Jianzhi.

This pose, this princess carry, the overwhelming sense of romance—

Everyone inside was stunned!

Pu Ren sprayed out the tea he was drinking!

Chen Wei stuttered as he asked: “Zhu...Liheng...is she...your girlfriend?”

Zhu Liheng: “Yeah, she drank too much. I'm going first.”

Chen Jingman only felt her vision go dark for a second as her face instantly lost color.

He admitted it.

He admitted it!

Why...

Didn't that make her own earlier desperation seem like a jumping clown?

Pu Ren quickly stood up: “Then go ahead, leave this to me.”

Zhu Liheng: “It’s fine, I’ve got it.”

Saying so, he turned around holding Lin Jianzhi and went to find a server to pay the bill, and also paid for Class 3 Senior 2 of Yingyi No.1 Middle School’s gathering.

After a brief silence, the big private room exploded!

Boom!

Noisy chaos, some people even ran around the room excitedly like monkeys on Flower Fruit Mountain.

In the small private room, Zhu Liheng’s former classmates also began heated discussion, incredulous.

“Zhu Liheng has a girlfriend, holy sh*t!”

“I heard girls from A University and B University lined up from the school gate to Sanyuanqiao to chase him...”

“Did you guys see what the girl looked like clearly?”

“Just the back of her head. Zhu Liheng sure kept this secret huh!”

“......”

Only Chen Jingman bit hard into her lips, her mood plummeting to the bottom of a valley.

How could this be?

Lin Jianzhi was actually Zhu Liheng’s girlfriend!

Outside, the night had already fallen.

Zhu Liheng carried Lin Jianzhi all the way like this to the car he drove here.

Perhaps the night wind was a bit cold. Lin Jianzhi burrowed further into his embrace, mumbling drunkenly.

Zhu Liheng bent his head and asked: “What did you say?”

Lin Jianzhi had already lost consciousness: “Zhu Liheng...don’t ignore me...”

Zhu Liheng felt a pang in his heart. He wanted to put her in the passenger seat.

But Lin Jianzhi stubbornly refused to let go, clinging tightly to him. She even started wailing.

“Don’t leave...I don’t want to get off...I want to be with you...”

Zhu Liheng had no other choice. He could only call a chauffeur service over while holding Lin Jianzhi as he sat in the backseat.

Smelling the familiar scent, Lin Jianzhi gradually relaxed, falling asleep half lying and half hugging Zhu Liheng’s leg.

The chauffeur soon arrived to drive them back to the residential district parking lot.

On the way, Lin Jianzhi kept lying on Zhu Liheng’s leg, her head restlessly nuzzling about.

Zhu Liheng sat rigidly until the chauffeur parked the car and left before relaxing.

He looked down at the little crybaby.

Long lashes fluttering, her face flushed, probably from the alcohol, pink splotches smearing her cheeks.

She breathed with her mouth half open, still hiccuping softly as she mumbled something.

Zhu Liheng patted her back: “We’re home.”

Lin Jianzhi opened her eyes. Her expression did not seem sober, but even more drunk.

She suddenly sat up, her gaze wandering as she stared at Zhu Liheng.

“Zhu Liheng...”

The girl before him moved closer and closer.

Lin Jianzhi just like that, clumsily kissed him.

Zhu Liheng’s body tensed up as his eyes widened!

How dare she?

This little coward...

Empowered by the alcohol, not only did Lin Jianzhi kiss messily, she babbled nonsense.

Gibberish murmurs like a mewling kitten.

Zhu Liheng looked at her, voice hoarse: “Lin Jianzhi, do you know what you’re doing?”

Lin Jianzhi: “Hmm?”

She was not sober at all, struggling harder to climb up, hugging Zhu Liheng’s neck tightly and sticking close.

Lips so close he could feel her alcoholic breath, her fingers running through his hair.

The more clumsy and innocent she was, the more it stirred Zhu Liheng’s heart.

After resisting for a long time, he finally lowered his head to kiss her.

You started this first, Lin Jianzhi.

Their breathing burned within the car, getting hotter and hotter.

Steam misted up the windows, blurring the inside of the car.

Just as Zhu Liheng was about to completely give in, Lin Jianzhi’s head suddenly lolled to the side as she passed out.

Zhu Liheng: “......”

He got out of the car to stand outside for a bit, calming himself down.

The open car door revealed the girl deep asleep in the back seat, one slender fair arm unconsciously dangling out.

Zhu Liheng looked back at her, helpless in his eyes.

She probably blacked out completely huh. Will she wake up tomorrow remembering nothing?

Oh well...

He really asked for this from her.

Sunlight shone on Lin Jianzhi’s face at 7am the next day.

She blinked confusedly awake and the first thing she saw was a familiar basketball. She sat up and looked around.

"Ah!!!!"

A shriek escaped her as she frantically crawled up, utterly horrified.

What time was it now? What day?

How was she in Zhu Liheng’s room!

She rushed out and found Zhu Liheng’s home empty and eerily quiet.

Glancing down at herself, she still wore yesterday’s party clothes, just somewhat wrinkled but nothing else amiss.

Lin Jianzhi raced back to the room, body shaking as she hunted for her phone.

Just what on earth happened yesterday?

Why did she open her eyes to broad daylight, lying in Zhu Liheng's bed!

Finding her phone by the pillow, she was stunned silly seeing the time.

It was already 7am!

Although she had informed her parents of the all-nighter, she had zero recollection of what kind of all-nighter this was!

She checked the chat group. What was going on?

It was empty like a ghost town, not one person had sent any messages!

Opening Zhu Liheng’s chat, there were also no messages.

Lin Jianzhi was bewildered!

How did she end up at Zhu Liheng’s place?

Surely she couldn’t have drunkenly made her way here herself!
