Chapter 61: What Kind of Girls Do You Like?
Qin Yuenan’s last experience with this kind of face-flushing, heart-racing feeling was back at Sheshan.
That time, her relationship with Lin Shen had undergone a subtle change, gradually evolving from superior and subordinate to pretty good “friends.”
It was also that time when she first developed inexplicable feelings for a member of the opposite sex.
She even had an incredible dream that night.
But this time, the surging heat in her chest was obviously more intense than at Sheshan.
After being closely embraced by his muscular frame full of masculine hormones, Qin Yuenan felt her brain becoming slightly dizzy.
As if the drunk person wasn’t Lin Shen, but her!
That burning breath mixed with alcohol frequently brushed against her cheek, making Qin Yuenan’s originally clear consciousness somewhat intoxicated.
She liked drinking, but really disliked the smell of alcohol on people who had been drinking, including herself.
However, she didn’t dislike the smell of alcohol on Lin Shen.
Very contradictory, very strange.
Qin Yuenan felt that many of her daily habits were gradually being changed by Lin Shen, moving in a direction she had never encountered before.
Could this be what Ning Ning called “liking”?
Qin Yuenan quickly shook her head, first helping Lin Shen into the passenger seat and buckling his seatbelt for him.
“You’re really heavy.”
“You’re really good.”
Seeing Qin Yuenan leaning over him, Lin Shen suddenly reached out and ran his fingers through her soft, flowing hair, touching and smelling it like a rogue, taking deep breaths and laughing with admiration.
“Sister Nan, your hair smells so good.”
“Get lost!”
Qin Yuenan was both embarrassed and angry, glaring fiercely at Lin Shen.
She never expected that Lin Shen would actually molest her when drunk!
Was it intentional?
Or unintentional?
Qin Yuenan leaned more toward the latter.
I’ll forgive you this time!
Qin Yuenan mentally excused Lin Shen’s “crime,” then sat in the driver’s seat.
She took off her high heels and put them in the back seat, changing into flat driving shoes.
Just as Qin Yuenan buckled her seatbelt and was about to start driving, Lin Shen suddenly reached out and touched her black-stockinged legs!
The smooth, silky texture made him reluctant to let go.
!?
Qin Yuenan blinked twice, obviously not reacting immediately.
When she came to her senses and was about to coldly scold him, she saw Lin Shen smile embarrassedly.
“I thought there was a bug on your leg, but it turns out I was seeing things. Sorry, Sister Nan.”
“You better have been seeing things.”
Qin Yuenan’s expression was icy, but inwardly she forgave Lin Shen’s overly presumptuous behavior for the third time.
Rather than forgiving, it was more like she was indulging him.
Regarding Lin Shen’s bold behavior that was different from usual, Qin Yuenan actually felt a hint of secret anticipation.
Because her personality was naturally cool and passive, she needed such an “impolite” guy to “make trouble,” breaking through that subtle barrier that had always existed between them.
“Why did you drink so much?”
On the road, Qin Yuenan frowned and questioned him, but Lin Shen just smiled carefree.
“Because I’m happy!”
“Drinking with friends makes you this happy?”
Qin Yuenan pursed her lips disdainfully.
“I really don’t understand what you men are thinking.”
“You got the subject wrong.”
Lin Shen suddenly turned his head to emphasize.
“It’s not that drinking makes me happy, but friends.”
“Unlike girls who can hang out with their best friends every day, guys getting together is usually meaningful in itself, typically when they’ve encountered some troubles in life.”
“When these things can’t be digested internally, they’ll find friends to complain to, using alcohol to numb their wounded hearts.”
“…”
Hearing this, Qin Yuenan silently pondered the deeper meaning in Lin Shen’s words.
She thought Lin Shen had long since moved on from his previous failed relationship.
After all, he usually seemed carefree and easygoing, with a warm smile, showing no signs of dejection or disappointment.
But obviously, he hadn’t.
Only after this drinking session had he slowly found peace.
Perhaps this was what he meant by the significance of “guys getting together.”
Qin Yuenan selected a playlist, turned on the electronic aromatherapy, and with her slender hands turning the steering wheel, drove the Volvo S90 into the busy traffic.
♪If we can’t love in this life, let’s try again in the next♪
…
The rhythmic melody of the old song slowly echoed in the dim car interior, accompanied by the faint grapefruit scent in the air, suddenly clearing Lin Shen’s intoxication considerably.
“We like similar playlists, all old songs. Very fitting for old people like us.”
Lin Shen asked curiously.
“The aromatherapy smells really good too. What scent is this?”
“Sea salt and sage.”
Qin Yuenan answered softly, her gaze focused and serious on the brake lights that occasionally turned red outside the windshield.
She was silent for a long time, finally taking a deep breath and asking in a seemingly casual tone.
“Aren’t you planning to date anymore?”
“How could that be!”
Lin Shen lazily replied with his hands behind his head.
“I’d still get butterflies if I met a girl I liked. I just probably won’t do the pure love thing anymore. Maybe being a player wouldn’t be bad.”
“Neither taking initiative nor refusing.”
“Then you…”
Qin Yuenan wasn’t surprised by Lin Shen’s change in attitude.
On the contrary, if he still believed in love after experiencing his ex-girlfriend’s betrayal, that would indicate mental problems!
Qin Yuenan’s red lips parted, her heartbeat accelerating from nervousness.
Lin Shen seemed to notice her hesitation and turned to ask with a light laugh.
“Sister Nan, what did you want to say?”
“I wanted to ask, what kind of girls do you like?”
Qin Yuenan gripped the steering wheel tightly, then immediately explained.
“I’ll see if there are any suitable girls around me to introduce to you. After all, you’re my assistant.”
“Sister Nan, could you introduce yourself to me?”
Lin Shen said with a grin, his sudden direct hint making Qin Yuenan’s heart tremble, then she bit her lip.
“What do you mean?”
“Literally.”
Lin Shen counted on his fingers as he praised.
“Sister Nan, you’re beautiful, have a great figure, excellent work and education credentials, and you’re very wealthy.”
“With such great qualifications, I don’t think any guy would refuse, right?”
“…”
Qin Yuenan pressed her thin lips together, her already restless heart seeming to have a stone thrown into it, creating ripples.
Does Lin Shen like me?
After this absurd thought popped into her head, this time Qin Yuenan didn’t immediately deny it, but seriously considered the possibility.
Since he praised me so much, maybe it’s true?
If he likes me…
“Sister Nan.”
At this moment, Lin Shen’s sudden voice startled Qin Yuenan
