Chapter 33: Soft, Sweet, and Big

Clear, pleasant, and with a hint of playfulness.

Qin Liang subconsciously glanced to the side and saw a beautiful girl standing beside him at some point, her slender arms supporting the drunk Tang Yunle.

A light blue shirt, light-colored denim shorts, and cloud-patterned white shoes, as well as that extremely familiar, exquisite, and well-behaved face.

‘Kele?’

Qin Liang’s heart stirred.

But then he noticed something strange. If Kele was a shy and reserved mimosa, then the beautiful girl before him was a lively and cheerful sunflower.

‘So… she’s Kele’s sister?’

‘But isn’t Baishi a high school student? How could she be at the university gate?’

‘And that “brother-in-law”…’

As a series of questions exploded in his mind, Qin Liang looked up again, only to find that the girl had already disappeared. Looking around, there was nothing in the night but the swaying shadows of the trees.

‘Did I see it wrong? A hallucination?’

‘Or did she run away?’

“Uncle security guard, did you see a girl just now?” Qin Liang asked, supporting the drunk Tang Yunle as he walked to the dim security booth.

The security guard, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth and a fan in his hand, looked up and glanced at him. “What girl? It was just you and this student at the school gate just now.”

After speaking, he noticed Qin Liang staring at the fan in his hand in confusion. He casually pointed to the east. “The college’s transformer station burned out. The whole school has a power outage. The air conditioners can’t be turned on. The electricians are working on repairs.”

No wonder the entire college was pitch black, not even a single streetlight was on.

Qin Liang thought back to when he had just gotten out of the taxi, and the campus was pitch black.

He said his thanks and then half-dragged, half-supported Tang Yunle towards the male dormitory.

The night was as thick as ink that couldn’t be dissolved. Only the moonlight cast mottled tree shadows on the ground, plating the two figures with a hazy silver edge.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, these girls nowadays, they’re really bold.”

After their figures disappeared around the corner, the security guard uncle shook his fan and clicked his tongue, then looked at the “drunken beauty” in the arms of the young man with ice-blue pupils and sighed.

‘To get this drunk and not ask a female friend for help, but instead have a male student take her back to school.’

‘Although the security on campus is pretty good, you can’t judge a book by its cover. Isn’t she afraid of something happening?’

‘But seeing how close they are, maybe they’re a little couple in the honeymoon phase.’

Although it was dark, as a security guard who had graduated from a sports school, his eyesight was exceptionally good. With just a glance, he had guessed the gender of the person the young man was supporting.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

All the streetlights on campus were out, and the empty roads were completely dark. But thankfully, with the help of the moonlight, they could still see the road and avoid falling.

Qin Liang supported Tang Yunle. To save some energy, he put his right arm under Tang Yunle’s armpit and around his waist, while his left arm supported his fair arm.

He didn’t know if it was his imagination, but Tang Yunle seemed a little lighter at this moment, and the faint lemon scent had suddenly become stronger, lingering at the tip of his nose and refusing to go away.

If there had been bright lights at this moment, Qin Liang would have definitely discovered that his roommate had changed his appearance:

His originally slender figure had become delicate and soft, his cool white skin more lustrous and jade-like. His bone structure seemed to have been reshaped, shrinking by a whole size. Even his neat short hair had grown at a visible speed, falling to his earlobes.

All this happened silently. Without any light, just by the dim moonlight, the young man couldn’t see any changes and could only feel his roommate getting lighter and lighter.

The night was as thick as ink. Qin Liang half-supported, half-carried Tang Yunle forward.

Suddenly, his right hand inadvertently touched a soft mass. The sensation was round and warm, with a faint elasticity coming from his fingertips, which made him stunned for a moment.

‘What is this…’

‘A pectoral muscle?’

The young man subconsciously gave it a squeeze. The sensation in his palm was fine and soft, like squeezing a velvet-covered rubber ball.

‘Why haven’t I noticed my roommate’s pectoral muscles are so big on a normal day?’

In his confusion, Qin Liang turned to look at Tang Yunle.

He didn’t know if it was the result of alcohol numbing his nerves, but under the moonlight, his face seemed much fairer than usual, and his figure was also a bit shorter. His height, which was originally the same as his, was now only up to his shoulder.

His fingertips unconsciously rubbed, and on a whim, he gave it another light squeeze.

“Hmph~” a soft, delicate hum cut through the silence.

The drunken girl’s whole body collapsed into his arms like melting spring water, her jade-like neck flushed with a faint red, her beautiful eyes half-closed, her long eyelashes trembling, her lips slightly parted, alluringly beautiful.

And it was this light hum that brought Qin Liang back to his senses. Realizing what he had just done, he let go of his hand as if electrocuted.

He stared blankly at his right palm, then at the “young man” leaning against his shoulder, his face flushed. His own face first turned green, then red, then purple, like an overturned palette, very spectacular.

‘He actually… to his roommate…’

Qin Liang gave a bitter smile.

‘Forget it, let’s just consider it a dark history and bury it in my heart from now on.’

‘Thankfully, Ah Le didn’t wake up. Otherwise, the next four years of college life would be really… too awkward.’

‘What’s wrong with me today? Could it be that I drank too much and my mind is in a daze?’

Qin Liang thought back to the hallucination he had after getting out of the car, and now he had done such a “criminal” act to his roommate.

He pinched his thigh hard. The sharp pain brought him to his senses and also dispelled the original hazy drunkenness.

Taking a few deep breaths of cool air to suppress the panic in his heart, the young man supported Tang Yunle again and quickly walked towards the male dormitory.

He supported Tang Yunle up to the eighth floor in one go, returned to dorm room 812, and placed him on the bed.

Because of the power outage, the dorm was pitch black, so dark you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face. The only source of light was a few rays of moonlight leaking in from the balcony.

Qin Liang simply washed his face with cold water, climbed up the ladder, and was about to get into bed when his pant leg was pulled by a small, fair hand.

He turned his head to look.

In the darkness, a pair of drunken and watery red eyes looked at him, beautiful and moving. It was hard to believe that these were the eyes of a boy.

“Ah Liang, thank you,” the drunken girl on the bed murmured, her voice soft and nasal.

“You’re welcome. You’ve also been very considerate of me on a normal day,” Qin Liang said. “I’m not in good health, and you’ve helped me carry water several times. I’m also very grateful to you.”

“That’s different. I did that with a purpose.”

“Hiccup!”

As the girl spoke, she suddenly hiccupped. But then, as if she had thought of something, she covered her eyes with her fair arm, and suppressed sobs seeped out from between her fingers.

“Do you know how much I envy your family? Your loving parents, your reliable big brother, and so much money!”

“Look at my family! A gambling father, a mother dreaming of her first love, a brother with a school belle girlfriend, and a sister on Xiaohongshu. What a f*cking joke of a family!!”

“Guess why they called me when we were having hot pot before?”

The crying girl, her eyes red, waved her arms. “They wanted me to give them money again!”

“Damn it! What do they think I am! Doraemon?”

“Although my sugar daddy has given me a lot of money, it can’t withstand their bloodsucking! And this is my money! My money!”

‘Sugar daddy?’

Qin Liang’s heart stirred.
