Daydreaming About Me

n’t believe in He Songnan’s words but this didn’t prevent him from stirring up a ruckus.
He happily put out his cigarette and stood up from the sofa, running to the door, leaning against the frame, looking at him.
“Old Shen, tell the truth or face the consequences.
Asakawa Ran or Sora Aoi2?

Shen Juan’s back was to the door as he sat on the ground, his hand gripping a pencil as he sketched on the canvas.
“Little Alice.”

Jiang Han choked.
“Boss Juan, please respect my goddesses.” He said seriously.
“She’s called Maria.
Maria Ozawa3.
She’s not fucking called Alice.”

“Aren’t they all the same?” Shen Juan didn’t even lift up his head, the tip of his pen dotting the paper twice before he continued drawing.

“Where are they the same? Tell me.” Jiang Han asked earnestly, “Can you please be a little bit more understanding towards us sex education englighteners like a normal teenager?”

Shen Juan took a random pillow and threw it towards him.
“Get lost.”

Lin Yujing really didn’t know why she followed Wang Yiyang and He Songnan to the doorway of the nameless tattoo studio.

Perhaps it was just because she had a call with Lin Zhi and needed something boisterous to help her divert her attention somewhere else.
Moreover, He Songnan and Wang Yiyang were overly passionate, their fervency making Lin Yujing feel as though they were MLM salesmen.
Lin Yujing had a feeling that if she were to refuse him one more time, Wang Yiyang would cling onto her leg, sit down on the ground and bawl.

The studio looked the same as always, the courtyard the size of a palm.
The plants inside grew slovenly and completely neglected.
The door was ajar, some voices could be faintly heard from the inside.

He Songnan pushed the door and Lin Yujing stepped inside.

The interior was no different to the last time she had visited.
The rooms were partitioned distinctively, the sofas were filled with pillows and the two long wooden tables were covered in sketches.
There was a computer at the side and going further inside were two doors.
Lin Yujing assumed that they led to the washroom of the studio.

Once Lin Yujing stepped inside, Jiang Han was dumbstruck.
“Little Fairy?”

Little Fairy blinked and raised her hand a bit awkwardly.
“….Hi?”

As though it was their first time meeting each other.

Recalling this scene, time flowed backwards and Jiang Han felt that his old heart had been struck amidst a field of flowers.

He tried to pull his voice, shouting at the room further inside.
“Boss Juan! Come out and receive the customer!!!”

His lines were still the same, though at the time, Lin Yujing felt embarrassed.
Now, she didn’t know why but she suddenly wanted to laugh.

This time, there wasn’t any irascible reaction.
Before half a minute could even pass, the door to the first room opened and Shen Juan stepped out from the inside.
He wore a white T-shirt with no print, earphone plugged in one ear while the other dangled just before his chest in a tangle.

He looked up and saw Lin Yujing, freezing at the doorway and raising an eyebrow.

He Songnan smiled very innocently.
“I bumped into your desk mate on the road.
Boss Juan, our meeting was fated.”

“…..”

For some reason, Lin Yujing suddenly recalled the emoji that Chen Yi had always sent to her that looked like the type old people would send.
Big red peony flowers entwined around two red glasses of wine with colorful words printed on top.
“Our meeting was fated.
Cheers to my friend for our friendship.”

A table was placed in the courtyard with an electric stove and pot on top.
The sight of the red spicy soup looked very appetizing, eliciting the urge in people to start salivating.
He Songnan and the others placed the ingredients they had just bought on the table and Lin Yujing went to wash her hands.
Just as she entered the washroom, Jian Han scuttled over to Shen Juan’s side.
“Boss Juan, she just greeted me earlier.
Did you see it?”

Shen Juan pulled open a can of coke.
“Nope.”

“Oh yeah, you hadn’t come out,” Jiang Han said, “It was so pure I got a bit scared.”

Shen Juan raised his head and looked at him.

He Songnan was all too familiar with this expression.

A week ago, because he didn’t watch his expressions attentively, it led to the ball that he was sitting on being kicked, causing him to fall on the ground.
His tailbone still faintly ached up until now.

He Songnan felt that he might have an incurable illness as though his butt would hurt everytime the sky looked dark and it was raining.

He cast Jiang Han a glance, appearing clearly as though he had no idea of the imminent danger, clutching his heart with an anticipating look.
“Is this what it feels like to have your heart thump?”

He Songnan decided to do his brother a favor and looked at the washroom door that was shut tightly, saying in a low voice, “Heart thump your ass.”

“That’s Boss Juan’s desk mate.
“ He Songnan pointed at him, “Not your desk mate.”

Jiang Han was very confused.
“Does one have to be my desk mate for my heart to thump?”

Before He Songnan could reply, the doors of the bathroom pulled open and Lin Yujing came out from inside, the subject coming to an end.

–

Although the school tyrant, Shen Juan, was rumored to be terrifying, at this moment, he didn’t look like a violent man who didn’t know right from wrong and nearly beat his desk mate to death.

Especially after the receipt incident, Lin Yujing had temporarily labeled him as a good person.

Moreover, he didn’t have the type of cool and lone wolf character.
In fact, he had quite a lot of friends.
Each and every one of them was very amusing.
They were all buzzing with energy as they ate hotpot, not a single second spent in awkward silence.

Shen Juan didn’t speak much, occasionally saying a sentence or two.
The majority of the time, he was just eating unhurriedly.

The second years ate hotpot and certainly consumed a lot of alcohol.
Jiang Han took out a box of beer from the room, giving one to each person.
When it was Lin Yujing’s turn, he smiled and held it in place.
“Little Fairy, care for a bottle?”

Lin Yujing blinked and didn’t immediately accept it.
She hesitated for a while, saying.
“I don’t know how to drink.
Maybe just a cup.”

In a situation where she was together with a group of boys, the only familiar one being Shen Juan and to the extent of only being classmates and not friends, Lin Yujing didn’t plan to drink alcohol.

She originally just wanted to say that a cup was enough.

Jiang Han and the group have always been used to acting coarsely so they didn’t think much of it.
The thought of a girl having to drink alcohol with a bunch of guys she wasn’t familiar with, hadn’t even crossed their minds.
They only thought that if the girl wanted to only drink a little, then she could drink a little.
If she didn’t want to drink, they wouldn’t force her.
One cup was also enough.

Jiang Han popped the bottle open and was about to take Lin Yujing’s empty cup.

Shen Juan suddenly raised a hand, grabbing the cup and turning it over, the mouth landing on the table.

His other hand grabbed a can of coke from the side, pulling the tab and with a ‘kacha’, he opened it and placed it in front of Lin Yujing.
“It’s not appropriate.
Just drink coke.”
