The Nan University Rolling Stone Bar was submerged in the patchy night lights of Shanghai, with a group of people leaving the bar drunk.
Sun Lei appeared on the outside to be a refined and scholarly PhD student, but in reality, he was extremely introverted yet naughty. Later on, he even carried two bottles of liquor and boasted about drinking against Li Han. Zhang Xiaqiao couldn't drink alcohol, and due to rarely drinking and having his reborn body, Su Chen's tolerance for alcohol wasn't strong either. However, the atmosphere was stirred up by Sun Lei, and they forced Su Chen to drink it all in one go. Finally, when everyone started teasing him, Tang Wu took over and drank three cups before Sun Lei stopped pestering them. Looking at Tang Wu’s delicate face that had a hint of rosy color, every man secretly desired her; however, looking back at Su Chen, Sun Lei revealed a glint of envy that didn't match his carefree attitude towards life.
Although Li Han didn’t say anything on the way back to their dormitory, he was clear in his heart. A person like Bie Lei could be so close with him and even not mind getting his expensive and well-kept clothes stained by alcohol solely because of Su Chen's existence, which rendered them equal or slightly higher status.
In this world, one had to keep strengthening themselves just like how Su Chen did; otherwise, a weak person's fragile dignity would be easily erased by the overwhelming tide.
The start of the second semester was uneventful, except for the unexpected encounter with Song Zhen who returned from America. Moreover, along with his group of close friends and Tang Wu’s dorm mates, they had a wild night at the Rolling Stone Bar until they could barely stand.
Li Han and Chen Jia parted ways with everyone after leaving the bar since for many people, this was just the beginning of their nightlife. Plus, tomorrow wasn’t strictly considered to be the first day of school, so some went back to their dormitories while others still had parties to attend; thus they all went their separate ways.
Although Su Chen got drunk, he never lost consciousness after drinking alcohol. No matter how drunk he was, his brain remained clear and aware of what he was thinking and doing. However, at times when he was extremely drunk, he would lose sense of direction occasionally.
But Su Chen didn’t forget about the promise to watch the night view of Shanghai with Tang Wu at the Hilton Hotel before this incident. When it came to keeping promises that mattered to him, he was always reliable.
Originally, he could have called Lin Guangdong from the magazine or Zhao Hao who was in Shanghai signing copyright deals with several singers in the new technology field to act as temporary drivers for them. But sending himself and Tang Wu to the hotel at night, Su Chen could easily imagine the lecherous expressions on their faces after dropping them off.
So they hailed a taxi at the bar entrance. Tang Wu supported Su Cen as he entered, and together they headed to the city center near Nanjing Road and Huaihai Road.
The Hilton Hotel stood before them like a huge and luminous light box, exuding modern tension and appeal.
However, there was no trace of late-night quiet in the surrounding city; it remained bustling. This reminded people that this city also had the title of Oriental Magic Metropolis.
Only when they stood here did they remember that this seemed to be their first time checking into a hotel at midnight. Although Su Cen was accustomed to nightlife, he felt slightly unsteady having Tang Wu by his side.
Tang Wu felt even more so, though her refined appearance gave no hint of it. Her daily life followed a strict routine; she would head home around eight o'clock every day, the epitome of an obedient school beauty queen. Since university, she had basically stayed in the dormitory, and when she occasionally returned to her family's Shanghai Peninsula Bay Snow Sea Retreat residence, she never spent a night outside.
Today not only did they stay out until late at night, but Tang Wu also agreed to go to the hotel with Su Cen, who was completely drunk, under the pretense of viewing the dazzling cityscape from floor-to-ceiling windows. Now standing outside Hilton Hotel and looking up at the towering five-star luxury hotel, her heart raced uncontrollably. She wondered why she had impulsively agreed to Su Cen's suggestion, almost making her want to back out.
But for some reason, she always found it hard to refuse Su Cen's requests, wanting only to fulfill all his imaginative desires about beauty.
The scenarios he enthusiastically painted and the stories they had shared together made her pause her note-taking in the lecture hall at times, looking out of the window towards the trees and clear sky. It also made her lose focus while reading a book in the library and kept her eyes wide open with difficulty falling asleep after texting Su Cen "goodnight."
Her heart always felt like it was being suddenly squeezed.
This is why Tang Wu felt more confident holding Su Cen's hand as they entered the hotel lobby.
The Hilton hotel staff were professional; when they first saw Tang Wu, who already had a captivating appearance, holding Su Cen's hand with flushed cheeks, the staff did not reveal any extra expressions and served them quite enthusiastically. After the two checked into a room with an amazing view in the lobby, when Su Cen swiped his card and walked towards the elevator with Tang Wu’s rosy face, the hotel attendant only stared at their backs for a moment before looking away, slightly moved.
The upper floors of the hotel were so quiet that all they could hear was the sound of their footsteps. When Su Cen swiped his card and opened the door to enter this room located in an elevated position overlooking Shanghai, both of them felt their hearts race uncontrollably.
The room had a traditional Chinese design with lattice windows and calligraphy scrolls. There was even a long flat piece of wood carved by Wang Xizhi depicting peaches. A single tree-like tea table held a small golden Buddha statue which bore the inscription, “Expensive antique, for viewing only; do not touch.”
"To watch the night view from this place is truly an extreme enjoyment," Su Cen said excitedly as he flopped onto the bed. The extremely elastic mattress bounced him up a little. At that moment, a strong urge to sleep washed over him and he felt it would be incredibly blissful to embrace Tang Wu while sleeping.
Thinking this, he turned around and reached out to pull her close. However, she gently pushed his shoulder away; her voice clearly revealed some nervousness: "You... go take a shower first."
"Have you ever thought about us doing it together" Su Cen felt that he could be even more shameless and imagined that saying this would make him look very evil.
Tang Wu frowned, her eyes flashing with panic as she said, "What are you talking about You go shower first."
Seeing Tang Wu's face flushed like a peach, Su Cen thought it was unlikely they could share the same bathroom tonight. He had to enter the bathroom himself and use hot water to rinse every pore of his body. At that moment, he felt the effects of the alcohol lessen; he realized that drinking too much wasn't good because if he had truly passed out today, wouldn’t this night have been wasted
Although Su Cen did not feel guilty about spending over three thousand yuan on a hotel room and could enjoy his life to the fullest with his impressive credit card balance, it was important that Nan University would be starting classes soon. There were very few opportunities like tonight where he could spend time alone with Tang Wu watching Shanghai’s night view.
After taking a shower, Tang Wu quickly entered the bathroom with her face still red. Su Cen lay on the large bed and watched TV; outside from his window, one could see the city at night from an aerial perspective of a helicopter. The room was lit by warm yellow light, only occasionally supplemented by spotlights, while steam could be seen coming out from under the bathroom door.
Hearing Tang Wu’s sound of bathing, Su Cen found it to be the most tempting and melodious sound in the world.
He couldn't suppress his vivid imagination at this moment; Su Cen's expression could be described with many words, such as shameless, sinister, and lecherous, all seemingly immersed in the endlessly seductive night.
The sound of Yala's bathroom door slightly opening, the rustling of Tang Wu wearing slippers, and the sound of the washroom door being opened caused someone’s heart to race. Su Cen suddenly sat up from lying down, with a stifled noise echoing in his chest.
Tang Wu, wrapped in a white dressing gown, walked out. Her freshly washed and dried hair was slightly misty and black, hanging over her bare shoulders as she dared not look at Su Cen but instead sat beside the bed.
"Are we going to do nothing" Tang Wu's voice lacked confidence at this moment. The profile of her face in the moonlight had a layer of wax-like glow that could bewitch anyone.
Su Cen, an atheist, felt that if he ever saw a goddess in his lifetime, it would definitely be the girl before him.
"We were just here to enjoy the night view. Watch some TV, appreciate the scenery, chat for a while and then go to sleep," Su Cen said with a smile.
"Are you sure" Tang Wu’s eyes flashed with cunning.
By the time Su Cen realized his mistake, it was too late. With feigned composure, he replied stiffly, "Of course." Tang Wu nodded as if determined and slowly slipped off her dressing gown. Su Cen's expression froze for a moment.
The floor-to-ceiling window revealed the grand city lights; Tang Wu’s graceful and elegant silhouette almost blinded the eyes.
At the moment when Su Cen was stunned to immobility, Tang Wu slipped under the covers, her head lightly resting on his chest, hair calmly draped, arms wrapping around him. Their body temperatures melded together at this instant, while the wicked Su Cen only felt the smooth and unblemished body next to him, with slender legs tightly entwined with his. smile that often indicates her distance from others.Tang Wu isn’t particularly clever; her distant demeanor is easy for people to spot right away. But it’s precisely this distance that could make her...
