Chapter8#

The distance between the two of them widened for a moment, and then they moved closer again. It was hard to tell whether Victor wanted to leave her or get closer to her.

However, Victor's height crushed Alice in an instant. She was like a kitten caught by its owner waiting to be slaughtered. She watched Victor take the cigarette from her hand and crush it bit by bit in front of her.

Just like before, when they were unhappy, Victor would not allow her to smoke in front of him, and she dared to be arrogant and unreasonable to provoke him.

At that time, he would press her under him, saying that smoking is harmful to health.

After staring at each other for a few seconds, Alice knew that he was serious. Victor was provoked by her. At this moment, ice and fire were intertwined in his eyes. The stinky man wanted to press her under him and rub her.

So she was not annoyed when her cigarette was extinguished. Of course, it was mainly because she didn't dare to be annoyed. When Victor spoiled her, she could do anything. When he was angry, she really didn't dare to provoke him.

After a while, Alice raised her eyebrows, with a smile in her eyes, and asked as if nothing happened: "Huh? What are you scolding? Don't you always give me a bad face? You're still blaming me."

"..."Victor pursed his thin lips slowly, hesitating to speak, and asked blankly after a long while, "When did I give you a bad face?"

"Oh, no?" A look of surprise flashed across her face, "Then I was being sentimental? I always think you don't like me."

"..."

"Oh no, when you first saw me at school yesterday, you didn't even seem to know me, your eyes were so cold that you could enter winter, I thought you had lost your memory, otherwise it wouldn't be that bad."

"..."

Seeing that he didn't move, Alice asked slowly: "Victor, huh? What's wrong with you?"

"No, it's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I feel a little strange."

"What's strange, I'm different from before."

"Yeah."

"Old?" She raised her eyebrows.

Alice's facial features are very three-dimensional and bright. When her eyes move slightly and she raises her eyebrows slightly, under the ambiguous light in the corridor, she is very charming and charming.

Victor almost unnoticeably moves his eyes away from her face and says, "You are beautiful."

"Oh," she said with a look of surprise, "You talk more after not seeing each other for a day."

"..."

Alice nodded, and the tail of her eyes slightly raised happily, "I said, if you don't love me, then you don't love me. When we meet again, we can at least be familiar strangers."

Victor stared at her, and in her smiling and seemingly emotionless eyebrows, he slowly turned his face away again, hiding the loneliness in his eyes, and then... he said in a very low voice: "Well, of course."

"..."

Alice sighed inwardly, bitchy Victor looked really boring. After a pause, she nodded, "Bye then, our friendship will last forever, alumni. Oh, senior, I went to class with you, call me senior, we'll be close."

"..."

Alice turned and walked to her private room. After entering the door, she quietly lit a cigarette as if no one was around, and then continued to smoke and drink.

Anna came back in the middle and said that someone in Victor's private room asked her for her phone number. She was about to welcome spring, and this birthday finally welcomed a little dawn of happiness.

Everyone in the room immediately surrounded her and asked who it was and what was going on.

Alice listened to this spring-like topic while thinking about Victor, but she couldn't figure out anything. In the end, she drank a lot in the evening without realizing it.

At some point, her phone suddenly vibrated. Alice glanced at the message in a daze. It was from Mike.

Why was he looking for her at this time?

Alice curiously clicked in to take a closer look.

Mike said, "Victor drank too much just now. We were talking about college and graduate school. He suddenly said that if he hadn't cut off contact with his father that year, I would have almost gone to England alone."

Alice smiled.

Mike: "I asked him what he meant, but he didn't say anything. It seems that he knew he had let it slip. Alice, maybe Victor wanted to stay for you, but something happened and he didn't stay."

Alice felt dizzy. She put down the cup and prepared to go to the bathroom to wash her face.

Someone was vomiting in the bathroom, so Alice turned to the door and went out.

There was no trace of Victor outside. He seemed to have come out to answer the phone earlier.

Alice looked at it and turned to the bathroom.

She washed her hands at the sink, and when she wanted to wash her face, she remembered to put on makeup.

But she still felt dizzy, so Alice reached out and lifted a few strands of light wine-red straight hair on her forehead and blinked her eyes to sober up.

But just after blinking twice, she suddenly saw a man coming in from the entrance in the mirror and was stunned.

It seemed to be the man who poured her wine in Victor's private room earlier and said that she was still so cool, his classmate, Simon.

The man took a step, saw her, suddenly stopped, and was also stunned.

Alice: "..."

The two looked at each other across the mirror, and finally, he asked with a smile: "Alice, did you go the wrong way?"

Alice looked around blankly. She often came to this bar for several years, and it seemed that the women's bathroom was not like this.

She nodded: "Yes, it seems so."

"..."

Alice thought to herself that as long as she was frank enough, she could pretend that nothing happened.

Simon saw that she was talking slowly, and said tenderly: "You drank too much, it's okay, there is no one else."

"..."Sure enough.

Alice smiled calmly, "Well, fortunately it's an acquaintance. Alas, drinking has messed things up." After she finished speaking, she took a tissue and wiped her hands. She was very calm. After wiping, she turned around and prepared to leave.

But Simon came over at some point, "It's quite a coincidence that we met. Can I give you a number?"

"?"

Alice raised her eyes, threw the tissue in her hand into the green trash can not far away, and raised her eyebrows: "Huh?"

He said: "Your phone number."

It's not that Alice didn't hear clearly, but she was a little surprised. What does it mean to ask for a number? Adult men and women basically know it.

She just didn't think that Victor's classmates would like her, but it doesn't matter whether they like her or not. The main thing is that she doesn't want to fall in love with others.

Seeing that she didn't take out her phone immediately, Simon cleverly asked: "What's wrong? You are, single?"

"I... I'm not."

"You're not single? Who are you with?" The look in the man's eyes was very unexpected. Seeing that she came with friends tonight, there was no man around.

Alice was about to make up a name, but her brain was paralyzed by alcohol, and she felt even more dizzy when she thought about things. Her steps were unsteady and she stepped back.

Simon put away his phone and went to help her: "Alice."

At this time, footsteps were heard outside again, and then a tall figure walked in, wearing black trousers and a white shirt. The man stretched out his hand to pull the buttons on his collar, looking a little hot.

Alice and Simon looked at it together, and the man also looked over.

--In the men's bathroom, under the quiet and enchanting lights, a man and a woman stood in front of the sink, looking at each other at close range, with affection, and the man's hand was still on the man's arm.

Is this... making out in the bathroom?

Victor looked at this scene with an incredible look on his face, looking at the woman who had talked to him before and now here with his classmates...

Simon looked at his expression and was stunned. He naturally remembered that Alice had pursued Victor before, and then this look now, what is this?

After coming to his senses, he immediately said, "You two are together? I thought Alice said she was not single, who is her boyfriend?"

Victor: "..."

He no longer looked at the two of them, but looked at Alice alone, without saying anything.

Simon explained again, "Don't get me wrong, Victor. It's nothing. It's just that your girlfriend went to the wrong place, so we said hello."

He remembered his hand and immediately took it back from Alice. "She drank too much and couldn't stand steadily. I just helped her out of courtesy. You can help her. You can do it." He said as he retreated and walked out.

As soon as Simon let go, Alice leaned back on the sink again and swayed.

Victor saw that she almost fell off the sink, and subconsciously went over to support her.

Alice steadied herself and raised her eyes: "Hi~"

"..."

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps and boys talking outside the bathroom door, talking and laughing as they came over here.

Alice blushed slightly, "No way, so many people know, where can I put my face." It would be fine if no one knew her, but she was known to everyone in the school.

After she finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at the toilet cubicle. There were not many people in the row inside, and the door was half open.

Before Victor could react, she had already run in.

He glanced, and the next second someone came in from outside.

Several men saw him and seemed to know him. They looked at him and said, "Victor?"

Victor glanced and saw that he was also from Peking University. They knew each other when they were studying.

He nodded.

The man immediately greeted him in surprise, and then began to greet him enthusiastically: "What a coincidence, you are back home?"

"Yeah." Victor responded, glancing at the closed cubicle.

"When did you come back? When can you graduate?"

"I have already graduated."

Alice listened to their conversation word for word. Victor was well-known to both men and women at that time, and he knew a lot of people. She knew it.

After a few words of greeting, several people began to call him to their booth to have a drink.

Alice: ? ?

She sighed and leaned her head against the wooden board: Don't go, what should I do if you go? I don't know if there is anyone outside and when I can go out.

Victor responded outside and said he would go when he had time, then turned around to wash his hands.

When the boys were about to leave, he saw that he was still there.

Someone was curious: "Victor, you are not done yet?"

"..."

Victor looked very normal, nodded calmly, and said okay.

Then he naturally took a piece of paper to wipe his hands, and he seemed to be very noble and elegant, and he was doing every detail very slowly, so that people would not think that he was sick.

After wiping, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, which seemed to have new messages.

Seeing that he was busy, the few people left quickly, and asked him to go drink later.

After the bathroom became quiet, Victor glanced at the door behind him in the mirror and said, "No one is there."

After saying that, there was no movement inside, Victor looked back and said, "Little Fish."

Still no sound.

Victor narrowed his eyes and guessed: Did she fall asleep in there?

He walked over and knocked on the door.

After waiting for a minute, he had to reach out and push the door.

What he saw was indeed the familiar figure leaning against the wall, with his head tilted and his eyes closed, in a drowsy and half-drunk state.

Victor was a little speechless, and walked in and helped her up helplessly: "Alice."

"Hmm." She half opened her eyes.

"Wake up, sleeping in the bathroom, amazing."

"Really."

"..."

Victor stopped talking and reached out to help her out.

Alice was completely exhausted. Seeing a familiar white dress in front of her, she curled her lips almost imperceptibly, then leaned forward, as if she was completely drunk. She had never thought about it, never thought about Victor wanting to give up Cambridge to stay for her, if it hadn't been for that incident, he would really stay to accompany her.

…It should be the decision he made when they reunited before New Year's Eve in his senior year.

Victor was so gentle that night, and he called her his sweetheart that night, and he could hear all the words "Little Fish is good".

It was just a pity that something happened on the first day of the new year, and he broke off contact with his bastard father's family.

It also cut off his hope of staying.

And Victor's personality is that he will say what he has done, and if he hasn't done it, he will pretend that it has never happened.

Victor's chest was suddenly stuffed with a softness, with a familiar yet unfamiliar perfume, as light as the wind.

He looked down blankly, looked at the little face in his arms, came back to his senses, and said in a not very good tone: "Alice."

She didn't move. Victor frowned: "Wake up, don't hug me randomly. Who is your boyfriend? Call him to pick you up."

"What?" She whispered softly, and then she was quiet again, looking very unconscious.

Victor had a blank expression on his face, and shook her gently, "Don't sleep, get up, and go out first."

She moved, changed her position, put her arm around his waist, and said weakly: "Don't shake, I'm going to vomit."

Victor: "..."

He reached out to open the door, and when he opened it halfway, someone else came in from outside.

He quickly closed the door.

With a bang, Alice didn't know what was going on, raised her head, and seemed to be about to speak.

Victor covered her mouth with his hand.

Alice groaned: "..."

Victor: "..."

Two men were talking in confusion outside: "What's that sound?"

"It seems like there is a woman's voice?"

The other man thought about it, glanced at the toilets behind him, and suddenly smiled, whispering: "Normal, it's the bar toilet."

The man next to him agreed: "Yeah, that's right, the best place for intimacy."

In the cubicle, a faint heat wave passed over Alice's face. She broke away from Victor's hand and buried her face in his shoulder.

Victor no longer covered her, but subconsciously reached out to hug her head and stroked her hair to comfort her.

There was a sound of washing hands outside, and a normal conversation continued.

Alice changed her head and her eyes fell on the man's smooth and neat jawline.

He lowered his head slightly, and she just bumped into his thin lips, and his high nose bridge, which curved straight to the corner of his eye, and then a long eyelash shadow covered the teardrop mole at the end of his eye.

At that moment, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and her heart was filled with passion.

Alice was mesmerized by this extremely brilliant face, and instantly felt like she was really drunk.

She opened her mouth to speak. Victor came closer and whispered, "Shh, be good, don't talk."

Oh.

Alice was obedient. Just looking at this face, unconsciously, unconsciously, she tightened her arms around his waist, closing the distance between the two of them, and finally she leaned her head on his chest again, burying it comfortably.

Victor's eyes fell on her hand, and thinking of her boyfriend, he took her hand away.

Alice was dizzy when he pulled her slightly harder, and instantly forgot his gentle instructions, and couldn't help but say pitifully: "Be gentle."

"..."Victor opened his eyes wide.

The sound of running water and conversation from the faucet outside stopped abruptly.

Victor's whole back stiffened.

Then he heard someone outside: "Tsk, damn, is it so exciting, let's go, let's go."

Victor: "..."
