It’s Colder Today

Twenty-Five Degrees Part 2

Shi Yun knew that she was spoiling the atmosphere. Not long after arriving, she wanted to leave. But looking at such racing performance scenes, she did not experience the full-body excitement brought by the extremely stimulating scenes, and only felt suffocated.

Everyone has a limit. There is no way for a spring to return to its original state after being stretched.

Shi Yun felt that the limit of her recovery was to accept cars as a means of transportation again.

The two of them stood by the railing on the second floor. Shi Yun’s hand tightly held the railing that reached her chest, and the back of her hand was completely covered by another hand.

Wei Congying stood behind her, trapping her between him and the railing: “Don’t be nervous, just relax and watch. These people have performed many times, and they can drive better than you even with their eyes closed.”

Shi Yun shook his head: “I can’t.”

“You can’t solve it by always running away.”

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Shi Yun, who couldn’t walk, closed her eyes.

The two people seemed to be talking in riddles, but Shi Yun didn’t pay attention to their conversation. She only wanted to leave.

It wasn’t until she came out of the racing track that she felt her breathing slow down.

She walked a little fast, not holding Wei Congying’s arm as before. After walking alone for a long time, she stood outside the venue panting heavily. The palms of her hands were covered in cold sweat. When she came to her senses, a hand touched her neck, and his slender fingers pinched the flesh of the back of her neck.

“You can’t keep being scared every time.” His words seemed to be to comfort her.

Shi Yun’s body was covered in fine sweat, and it was understandable that she felt that she would never recover from that kind of psychological shadow.

He was an excitement seeker, but Shi Yun was not.

She cherished her life.

She hates this kind of pushing the limits.

“I’m really scared.” Shi Yun struggled for a moment and then removed the hand holding the back of his neck. “It was the same that day. But you still insisted on me driving.”

Seeing how she was throwing the blame to him, Wei Congying stood on the side and watched, but he wasn’t angry at all. Her frown was like that of a kitten whose anger flared up after being teased many times.

He moved his hand from the back of her neck and put it on her shoulder: “Okay, okay, it’s all my fault.”

But after saying that it was all his fault, he led her back to the hotel and muttered: “But you were the one who was curious about the racing track.”

The one who was initially calmed by the words “Okay, okay, it’s all my fault” immediately got angry again: “If you want to comfort me, just keep comforting me. Instead, you were halfway done with comforting me, and you had to stimulate me. To think that I didn’t even sleep today, and left the dormitory only to be bullied after traveling all this way.”

He was really happy to see her here today.

Hearing her say that she came over after traveling from far away, he rubbed her shoulder with his palm, held her in his arms, and rested his chin on her head: “When you get a break in two days, I’ll treat you to a big meal, okay?”

After Wei Congying sent Shi Yun to the hospital the next day, he returned to his apartment and cleared the phone records of calls from Wei Mingcheng and his grandparents.

She had a nice bath.

In the evening he went to an appointment and had dinner with Shao Yuan and the others.

Lin Fang chose the location and the bill was footed by Xiang Shaoyuan.

There were only four people in the box.

Lin Fang didn’t bring his girlfriend, after all, they would be a thing of the past in two days. Lin Fang’s promiscuity was more or less something he learned from Wei Congying. Wei Congying had advised him to have a good relationship, but coming from his mouth, those words were never very convincing.

The four people asked for a large private room.

Wei Congying was the last one to arrive, probably to take advantage of Jiang Xuyang’s arrival earlier than him today.

When he met Wei Congying again, Xiang Shaoyuan was somewhat embarrassed because of Liang Mengyi’s matter. In contrast, Wei Congying was calm. After entering the room and taking a seat, he asked him how his injury was.

“It’s nothing serious.” Xiang Shaoyuan shook his shoulders and arms, “It’s just a minor skin-surface injury.”

Lin Fang was the only ‘witness’ among the four. He picked up his chopsticks and was about to pick up the food. While picking up the food, he made a snarky comment to Xiang Shaoyuan who was stretching: “What else can happen? He was hit by a fist. On the ground, I saw that the passer-by who was provoked was confused at the moment, and he seemed to think Xiang Shaoyuan was a scammer, so he almost pinched his philtrum and gave him first aid.”

Xiang Shaoyuan: “Get lost.”

After scolding, he felt it wasn’t enough and turned the turntable to keep Lin Fang from picking up food.

As childish as a child.

The waiter opened the door and interrupted the two people when he asked if they were ready for the food to be served.

Jiang Xuyang did not participate in the two’s squabble, and turned to ask Wei Congying: “I heard Zhang Guangwei say that you are planning to participate in the Xunchuan competition?”

Wei Congying shook his head and took down the ashtray that had come to a stop in front of him: “Zhang Guangwei briefly mentioned it to me, but I haven’t agreed yet.”

Lin Fang heard this and immediately gave up the ‘kindergarten war’ with Xiang Shaoyuan. At the same time his energy seemed to spike, “You’re going to go f***ing racing again, aren’t you? You’re f***ing “forgetting the pain after the wounds heal”. Just look at your f***ing arm, look at the f***ing length of that scar, f***, you’ve forgotten how you fell off the bike at Zhou Zuo, haven’t you?”

The speech wasn’t long but the amount of f***s in it was quite large.

If Wei Congying had been obedient, he would not be Wei Congying.

He would definitely enter the competition, but Shi Yun was a bit of trouble. Seeing how she was, he couldn’t keep this from her and attend out of her sight. But if he told her, she would probably be angry, and the chances of them breaking up is very high.

But to give up?

Wei Congying was unwilling to do so. He liked Shi Yun a little bit, but he still loved himself more.

A way to get the best of both worlds had not yet been figured out.

Wei Congying lit his cigarette and wondered how Jiang Xuyang knew that Zhang Guangwei had discussed the competition with him.

Jiang Xuyang explained: “He saw you bringing Shi Yun over, so he came to ask me specifically. It seems that there was a female staff member at the racing track who originally asked him to get your phone number for them.”

Speaking of Shi Yun, he counted on his fingers and said to Xiang Shaoyuan: “It’s longer this time. We’ve been together for several months.”

It’s been a long time.

He didn’t count the time deliberately, but now that he looked back and thought about it, it had been several months.

They sacrificed1[1] Not literally but in a hyperbolic sense. Xiang Shaoyuan for this meal.

Xiang Shaoyuan signed the bill brought by the waiter, his heart aching: “It’s A’Cong’s birthday in half a month, so I have to eat back my money’s worth.”
