Chapter 30
Song Luokui walked directly into room 365. A group of men in black suits immediately looked over at her. The private room was very quiet. Song Luokui suddenly became sober and looked at the room number. She took a step back, "Sorry, wrong room."
Song Luokui immediately turned and ran away. After asking the server, she found out the room was actually 356 instead of 365.
When she returned to room 356, she was still a bit nervous. Alcohol is dangerous! She was right!
Song Luokui drank a glass of juice to calm her nerves. Just then, her phone vibrated. A message from Chi Yu popped up.
Song Luokui immediately pressed her phone against her chest and looked left and right. Her brother seemed to be discussing business with some people, while others were happily playing games and not paying attention to her.
What she didn't know was that some people occasionally glanced over at her.
Song Luokui leaned back against the sofa, and picked up her phone to look at the message Chi Yu sent: Why did you run away?
Song Luokui: ?
The other side was quickly typing. Soon, a sentence came through: Room 365.
Song Luokui stared with wide eyes and typed quickly with both hands: Were you there just now?
Chi Yu: Yes. Do you want to come over?
Song Luokui immediately declined: No, no.
Chi Yu didn't insist either: Have you been drinking?
Song Luokui: How did you know? Yes, a little.
Recalling the blushing girl with slightly blurred eyes that he saw earlier, Chi Yu guessed: Really just a little?
Song Luokui: Of course, just a few drinks.
But Chi Yu thought to himself that she couldn't handle much alcohol at all and was already tipsy after a few drinks.
Song Luokui had class tomorrow, so Uncle Kang came to pick her and Zhang Xiyue up before 10 pm per Song Luosheng’s request.
As for Song Luosheng and the others, they planned to stay until midnight or 1 am.
It wasn’t until early morning that Song Luosheng decided to call it a night. The group walked out of the private room towards the parking garage. Designated drivers had already been arranged.
As soon as the group reached the parking lot, Chi Yu and his entourage happened to walk over from the other side. The two groups directly faced each other.
With his hands in his pockets, Song Luosheng exchanged glances with Chi Yu, then led his people past Chi Yu without giving them any warm greetings. The two groups eyed each other as they passed by without exchanging pleasantries.
After they left, Chi Yu lowered his eyes and glanced at his phone to read Song Luokui’s latest message before getting into the car and leaving with his people.
The next day, Song Luokui almost arrived late to class. And her head still hurt a little. She really shouldn’t drink too much.
Just as she was rubbing her temples, the class monitor Xu Jiarong walked over to the front seat in front of her and kindly asked, “Song Luokui?”
Song Luokui immediately opened her eyes and sat up straight. “Monitor, what can I do for you?”
At this moment, Xu Jiarong thought to herself: Ah! Song’s skin looks so good. She looks even more delicate and beautiful up close. The legendary fairy doll lives up to her name.
Yes, Song Luokui had a nickname in class called “Fairy Doll” that everyone secretly called her behind her back without her knowing.
"Monitor?" Seeing that Xu Jiarong didn't respond, Song Luokui asked again.
Xu Jiarong immediately came back to her senses. "Oh, uh, I was wondering if Song Luokui would like to participate in the class team building activity? Since we've gotten to know each other better this semester, in order to enhance class cohesion and demonstrate teamwork, our class plans to organize a team building event. Song, do you have time to participate?"
The main reason was that Song Luokui didn't seem to have participated in any school events before and kept a low profile, rarely talking in the class chat group. Xu Jiarong was worried she wouldn't want to participate.
Song Luokui would participate in this kind of group event. "Sure, when is it?"
Xu Jiarong: “You agreed?”
Song Luokui tilted her head in confusion. “Why wouldn’t I agree?”
Xu Jiarong: “Oh, this Saturday. I posted a message in the group chat, but you may not have seen it. That's why I asked you in person. Let's meet at the east gate of the school at 8:30 am that day. I will post the itinerary in the class group later."
"Sorry, there may have been too many chat messages that I missed seeing. Let me check." Song Luokui immediately opened her phone to browse through the class group messages. After scrolling for a long time, she did see the message Xu Jiarong posted about the Saturday event. She was free that day and could participate.
Seeing that she agreed, Xu Jiarong happily returned to her seat.
Soon, the team building itinerary was posted. They would visit a museum in the morning, have lunch together, tour the Summer Palace in the afternoon, and have dinner and karaoke at night.
No one had any objections.
Early Saturday morning, Song Luokui got out of bed. Sheng Rong and Song Moqian happened to be home today, as well as Song Luosheng. The three were quite surprised. "Why up so early? Why not sleep in a little more?"
Song Luokui yawned. “I’m not going back to sleep. I have to go to school soon for a class team building event today.”
As soon as Aunt Gui heard that, she said, "Miss, let me quickly pack some food for you to bring."
Song Luokui: "No need, we already booked a restaurant for lunch."
Sheng Rong: “What’s today’s team building event?”
Song Luokui: “Visiting a museum in the morning and the Summer Palace in the afternoon.”
Sheng Rong instructed Aunt Gui in the kitchen: “Aunt Gui, please help pack some snacks and fruits for the little miss. She can eat them herself if hungry or share them with classmates." Then she looked at Song Luokui again, "Bring some food with you. You can eat if you get hungry halfway, or share with your classmates."
Hearing this, Song Luokui agreed, “Alright.”
After the family of four had breakfast, Song Luokui grabbed her bag and prepared to head out. Song Luosheng waited for her at the door. "I'll drive you to school."
Song Luokui: “Don’t you have work today, brother?"
Song Luosheng: “It’s Saturday. Your brother has weekends off too.”
Song Luokui shrugged. “How would I know? Don’t you occasionally work overtime on weekends when busy?”
Song Luosheng: “I was a bit busy recently, but it’s fine now. And I can spare the time to drop you off.” He then grabbed her bag, “Let’s go.”
Song Luokui immediately followed him out.
Once seated in the car, Song Luokui added: “Later when we get to the school's east gate, you can't get out of the car or open the windows to let others see you, got it?”
As Song Luosheng started the engine, he joked, “What, embarrassed to be seen with your brother?”
Song Luokui: “On the contrary, you are too eye-catching. Just pretend to be my driver later. Otherwise, I won't ride your car anymore.”
Song Luosheng: "...Yes your highness, your command shall be obeyed."
Song Luokui laughed with eyes squeezed into slits.
The car soon arrived at the school's east gate where some students had already gathered. After taking off her seat belt, Song Luokui bid farewell, “I’m going now, bye!”
Song Luosheng: “Have fun. Call your brother if anything comes up.”
"Got it."
Song Luokui grabbed her bag and got out of the car. As soon as she closed the door, she headed straight for Xu Jiarong, who was doing a headcount. Seeing Song Luokui get out of the car, Xu Jiarong immediately waved at her.
Only after seeing his little sister join the group did Song Luosheng drive away.
Soon after, the headcount was complete. The chartered bus had long since arrived. Under Xu Jiarong and driver uncle's arrangement, everyone boarded the bus.
"Fasten your seatbelts, fasten your seatbelts after boarding!" the driver uncle shouted.
After getting on the bus, Song Luokui sat in the second seat from the front and obediently fastened her seatbelt. Xu Jiarong boarded last and sat right next to her.
