Chapter 448: The Drunken Yu Linna
Life still had to go on. Even if she had argued with her girlfriend, her work still had to continue. It was now February, and her novel work also had to continue. At present, Zixuan and the Paper Airplane had been serialized to the 18th volume, with two more volumes to go. This matter was public in the circle. Dawn Assassin was serialized to the 3rd volume, the worldview was unfolding, and the character relationships had just begun, and the popularity was particularly high.
And her work on the script was also going smoothly. After the script for the fourth season of The Smile of the Rose was completed, Yu Linna was supervising the filming on the set to ensure that the plot would not collapse. With her controlling the plot, the audience was very relieved and looked forward to the launch of the fourth season. And as for the IP of Ace Gambler, she had already started the localization and adaptation. At present, the style had been determined, and she had also told the other party that this story should be able to be finished in two months.
Her career was developing, and time was passing. Valentine’s Day had arrived.
This year was the first Valentine’s Day that Yu Linna had spent with a lover. Unfortunately, her lover could not come. They had argued. Because both of them were stubborn, this time, they had missed a very important day for both of them.
Actually, after calming down, Yu Linna also felt that she had been a bit mischievous that day. Ye Zhiyun was working so hard, yet she still had to be mischievous. Thinking about it carefully, it was nothing more than her being jealous. She couldn’t accept Ye Zhiyun being with another woman outside. She was very uneasy.
Yu Linna had never had a family. She cherished others’ love for her very much. And Ye Zhiyun was her girlfriend, and also the person she wanted to be family with forever. She treated the other party as her only one, and she was also afraid of losing her.
On Valentine’s Day, she, who had not been in contact after the argument, had once again been the first to give in. Yes, Yu Linna had still been the one to take the initiative to bow her head. Although she was extremely unwilling in her heart, compared to arguing, she wanted to spend their first Valentine’s Day with Ye Zhiyun even more. Even if she had to bow her head, it didn’t matter if she had to kneel. She wanted to spend it with Ye Zhiyun.
“Hello, Zhiyun.”
Perhaps, she was really very contemptible. Yu Linna couldn’t help but think so in her heart.
But what did it matter? When she was little, for a steamed bun she could eat, she could kneel down and beg others, and she could also give up her dignity. For a chocolate she could eat, she could also shamelessly kneel down and lie in front of others like a dog.
For so many years, she had come through like this. As for dignity and such, she would just put it aside for now.
“Nana.”
It had also been a while since Ye Zhiyun had heard her voice.
“Zhiyun, where are you? Can you come and see me? I want to see you. I was wrong before. I’m sorry, Zhiyun. I said too much. Will you forgive me?”
If she could keep Ye Zhiyun, it didn’t matter if she bowed her head. She was willing to admit her mistake first.
“Forget about my matter. I don’t blame you. But you’ve also been with many girls, right? I know all about it. Why are you blaming me in return?”
“…”
“Let’s not talk about the past. Nana, since we’re together, then I still hope we can get along well.”
Yu Linna clenched her phone tightly. At this moment, she wanted to smash her phone. But…
She held it in.
She didn’t want to leave Ye Zhiyun. Just this one reason supported her, preventing her from getting angry.
“Alright, I’ll listen to whatever you say. Zhiyun, just for today, can you come back and be with me? I want to be with you.”
“Not today. I’m in a meeting with a client. I still have a lot of work to do. I also have to confirm the development of a new project. The company’s business is not good recently. I want to get it up and running as soon as possible.”
“…”
Yu Linna looked at the sky. She felt as if she had become the loneliest person in the world.
Work again, work every day. Why does it have to be work? She clearly also had work. Why couldn’t Zhiyun, like her, try to find some time? Why!
“You always say that! You’re not even willing to spend time with me now? You didn’t say that when you were with me. You… you big liar!”
Yu Linna cried again.
Why? What had she done wrong? She just wanted to be with Ye Zhiyun. She was even willing to bow her head. She was also willing to be taught a lesson by her. Even the words that Ye Zhiyun had said, she had accepted. Why couldn’t she just come over and be with her for a bit? She was also a girl. Why couldn’t she consider her feelings?
“There’s nothing to be done about it. I can’t get away no matter what. If I leave, everyone will be done for. Nana, don’t be willful. I’ll be with you next time.”
“…Alright then. Whatever you say is what it is. I’ll listen to you. I won’t disobey you anymore.”
For the first time, she felt that dating Ye Zhiyun was a little tiring.
Yes, being in a relationship made her very tired.
A long-distance relationship meant they couldn’t meet like a normal couple, nor could they enjoy the life that a normal couple should have. This kind of life was too depressing.
Today was Valentine’s Day. Even if it was just for today, she really wanted to see Ye Zhiyun.
“Shion-sensei, you’re crying. Who bullied you?”
At this time, a voice came from behind. She turned her head towards the voice. The phone in her hand was still in the state of just having hung up. Her face was covered in tear stains.
Qian Jiaxuan felt a little sorry for her and went up to give her a few tissues to wipe away her tears. And Yu Linna couldn’t control herself a little and hugged Qian Jiaxuan.
“Shion-sensei?”
“Sister Qian, I’m so sad. I just want to cry.”
“What’s wrong? What happened?”
“What day is it today? Do you know?”
“…Is it Valentine’s Day?”
Qian Jiaxuan seemed to understand why this girl was crying.
Today was Valentine’s Day. Shion-sensei’s lover seemed to be unable to come and be with her. It was normal to think so. Shion-sensei was only twenty. A girl of this age was indeed very delicate. To not be able to spend it with the person she liked the most was indeed a great regret. And today was also Valentine’s Day.
Qian Jiaxuan didn’t know what to say. She first wiped her tears dry. Coincidentally, her home was also nearby, so she took Yu Linna to her house for a while. During this time, Yu Linna had been crying all along. When Qian Jiaxuan got home, her mother even thought her daughter had done something, bringing back a blonde girl who was crying all the time.
Qian Jiaxuan settled Yu Linna on the sofa, made her tea and snacks, but Yu Linna didn’t want to eat at all.
“Shion-sensei, you can’t be like this. You can’t be sad just because your boyfriend can’t come.”
“She’s a woman.”
“Eh… then you can’t be sad because of your girlfriend’s matter either. You have to pull yourself together.”
“…Sister Qian, you don’t understand anything.”
Qian Jiaxuan had never been in a relationship. It was hard for a person like her to understand Yu Linna’s thoughts.
After going back that night, Yu Linna was depressed, and her mood was bad all day. When she saw couples in pairs on the road, she would always think of her Ye Zhiyun. If only Ye Zhiyun could come.
She smiled wryly.
Walking into a convenience store, she saw the beer and white wine on the shelves. She suddenly thought, Why not have a drink tonight? So she bought a few cans of beer. Because her alcohol tolerance was not very good, she didn’t dare to buy much. The last time she had had a drink was at Dai Wenqian’s invitation to a villa house party. It had been so long now. Yu Linna quite missed it.
After eating something casually at home, Yu Linna drank alone, pulled open the pull-tab, and chugged it down in one go. The taste of the beer was very bitter, and the alcohol stimulated her nose. It really wasn’t that good of a taste. She wanted to vomit after the first sip, then forced herself to drink a second and a third sip. She found that it wasn’t that hard to drink anymore. In the end, when she had finished a can, she found that this beer was actually not that hard to drink, just that she was a little dizzy.
She smiled wryly.
“Ye Zhiyun, you bastard, you scumbag girl! I’m not with you to see you leave me on the side all day, not to see you ignore me every day. Where did your promise to me go? You promised to dote on me, you promised…”
“Too much, too much. Ye Zhiyun, you lied to me…”
“If you love me, then appear in front of me, right now.”
“Zhiyun, I miss you so much. Can you not put me aside…”
Downing the bitter wine, tears poured out. All her bitterness, all her words were poured out, even though there was no second person here. But Yu Linna wanted to say, she had always wanted to say the words she had been holding in her heart.
She liked Ye Zhiyun. She treated Ye Zhiyun as her only one. But Ye Zhiyun did not cherish her.
She was just dissatisfied. Why couldn’t Ye Zhiyun spend more time with her? She was just venting, just pouring out her grievances.
Slowly, the beer cans were empty. The liquid flowed from the table to the floor, a strong smell of alcohol spreading.
Zhao Yuyan had nothing to do this night and wanted to go and see Yu Linna. After all, Yu Linna had argued with Ye Zhiyun again. But as soon as Zhao Yuyan had entered the house, she had immediately smelled the smell of alcohol. Yu Linna, who usually didn’t drink, was actually drinking? Zhao Yuyan immediately ran to her room and saw the drunken Yu Linna lying on the table, the wine cans all overturned.
“Nana! What are you doing! You can’t drink, so why are you drinking so much!”
“…Mmm, Sister Yuyan? Don’t pull me. I’m not drunk.”
“You’re drunk! Quick, stop! You’ll get into trouble if you keep drinking!”
“I’m not… I feel so sick, wow!”
Yu Linna couldn’t hold it in and directly vomited. The strong smell of alcohol instantly spread, and Zhao Yuyan’s clothes were all dirty.
“Oh my god! You sit tight! I’ll go and find a trash can for you! How did you get so drunk!”
Zhao Yuyan was in a fluster and called Luo Nan next door. The two of them together helped to take care of the drunken Yu Linna. Unconsciously, it was late at night.
…
And on the second day, Ye Zhiyun went to the company, made herself a cup of coffee, and prepared for her new work today. When Dai Wenqian came in, she was a little stunned to see her.
“Zhiyun? You didn’t go out yesterday?”
“??? Why would I go out?”
“I thought you would definitely ask for leave to go out yesterday, no matter what. After all, it’s so important.”
“Yesterday?”
“Yeah, wasn’t yesterday Valentine’s Day? You actually didn’t go out? Although it’s a good thing to be focused on your work, don’t forget your girlfriend.”
Dai Wenqian waved her hand, smiled, and prepared to go to the meeting room. But Ye Zhiyun immediately grabbed her shoulder.
“Wait, what day did you say yesterday was?”
“Valentine’s Day. Didn’t you know???”
“…”
At this moment, Ye Zhiyun’s face was pale. She took a step back, and even overturned the coffee on the table. The folders were all soaked. Dai Wenqian was also startled.
And it was only now that Ye Zhiyun realized what a foolish thing she had done yesterday, and that she could not undo it.
