“I haven’t had time to congratulate you, Professor Ding.”

Zhao Jingjing chatted and laughed with her two roommates for a while, then took the initiative to walk over to Ding Ning and said this warmly.

“Hey, you’d better call me Ding Ning. That would make me feel a little more at ease.” He forced a smile and said.

Even though Ding Ning knew that Zhao Jingjing was a lesbian, when he saw her delicate, perfect face and big eyes, his heart started beating faster.

Zhao Jingjing did not say anything, but looked directly at him. The affection in her eyes made Ding Ning inexplicably flustered.

He secretly wondered, “Isn’t this girl a lesbian? Why is she looking at me like that? Has she changed her gender tendency?”

He stared at her, but was soon lost in her shimmery eyes. He felt very sorry for her. It was such a pity that such a beautiful girl was a lesbian.

“That’s enough. Don’t look. Let’s go in quickly. I’m starving to death.”

Liu Wenjing’s mischievous voice broke through the tense atmosphere between them.

The two of them smiled at each other and turned around at the same time. Their footsteps were synchronized.

This similar pace seemed to allow the two of them to regain the tacit understanding they had back then. He was filled with regret and sighed.

After entering the private room, Zhao Jingjing was back to her normal self again. She drew up a chair and sat down beside him, naturally.

He stared at Liu Wenjing and Song Xiaoyu with a quizzical look in his eyes. He secretly muttered, “How could they not know that Zhao Jingjing is a lesbian, since the three of them live in the same dormitory?”

Liu Wenjing and Song Xiaoyu felt confused, when they saw his gaze, and looked at each other in bewilderment.

Fortunately, Zhang Haifeng picked up the beer glass in time and proposed a toast, “Come on, let’s raise our glasses together to celebrate Big Brother becoming an honorary professor. Cheers.”

“Cheers!”

“Congratulations, Big Brother.”

“Drink up!”

Everyone was giving him face. Even the three women did not drink just soft drinks. They picked up their glasses of beer and drank up.

“Come on…”

“Why are you drinking so fast? You should eat some food to fill your stomach first.”

Zhang Haifeng wiped his mouth and happily poured out a second cup, trying to drink it all up. Liu Wenjing pinched his ear unhappily. He immediately smiled and nodded repeatedly, which made everyone laugh loudly.

After this episode, the atmosphere at the scene was celebratory. Liu Wenjing was indeed a student majoring in marketing and sales. She exchanged views with Zhang Haifeng, doing it via songs.

Song Xiaoyu did not talk much, but when she started to speak, her words were very witty, which amused everyone.

Zhao Jingjing was a little silent at first, but after a few rounds of drinking, she became slightly drunk and started talking more.

Perhaps because everyone was in a good mood, the atmosphere was harmonious throughout the night, and they drank happily.

In the end, the three women could not hold their drinks. Liu Wenjing simply put a few chairs together to lie down and slept using Zhang Haifeng’s thighs as a pillow. Song Xiaoyu was gentler. She leaned her head against his shoulder and closed her eyes to take a nap. Zhao Jingjing, however, held Ding Ning’s arm tightly, unwilling to let go. She fell asleep on the chair.

There was nothing wrong with the two couples, but Ding Ning was embarrassed. He secretly had an unspoken belief that a lesbian hated men. Why didn’t he feel it?

He wanted to remove his hand. Then, he saw a slight flush suffusing over Zhao Jingjing’s delicate pink cheeks, and her long eyelashes were fluttering slightly. She was so beautiful that he could not make up his mind.

“How could such a rare beauty be a lesbian? That was simply an injustice toward all the men.” Ding Ning thought with regret.

It would be meaningless to fake it when drinking with his brothers. So, he did not use his martial arts skills to remove his tipsy feeling. Now, he had a headache and felt dizzy.

With a “bang,” Wu Xian suddenly lay on the table, snoring loudly. Song Xiaoyu laid on the table too, and did not wake up.

“Ho ho, Third Brother… Third Brother can’t hold his drink either. Big Brother, I… I propose a toast to you… drink… drink… drink it up.”

Zhang Haifeng fixed his gaze on him and toasted him drunkenly. Regardless of whether Ding Ning drank or not, he guzzled down his own drink.

“Puff.” Zhang Haifeng could not hold on halfway through. He threw up and leaned his head on the back of the chair, snoring.

Ding Ning laughed and shouted, “Fu*k, every time you give me a treat, you always let me… let me pay the bill. No, you get up… get up and continue to drink.”

“Don’t make any noise. You’re annoying.”

Zhao Jingjing frowned and waved her fist unhappily. She pouted and said dreamily.

Ding Ning tilted his head to look at her red lips with bleary eyes. An impulse from the bottom of his heart made him raise her face without hesitation and kiss her…

The next morning, Ding Ning woke up with a hangover. He frowned uncomfortably before opening his eyes. Then, he stared blankly at the strange surroundings. It took him a long time to come to his senses.

“Where is this place? It looks like a hotel. Hey, wasn’t I drinking at a restaurant? How did I come to the hotel? I can’t even remember what happened afterward. I really drank too much.”

He shook his head with a wry smile and tried to sober himself up. When he was about to sit up, he suddenly felt stiff. He opened his eyes wide in surprise and looked at Zhao Jingjing, who was sleeping soundly next to him.

Trembling with fear, he picked up the quilt and peeked under it. Suddenly, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his scalp tingled.

Looking at the ripped pieces of clothes scattered everywhere, one could imagine how crazy they must have been last night.

When he thought that he had a romantic night with a lesbian after a drinking bout, Ding Ning wanted to cry, but had no tears. He held his head in distress and did not think that drinking would have such an adverse effect.

“What should I do now? To treat it as a one-night stand or to take responsibility?” However, will a lesbian hold a man accountable?

Ding Ning’s mind was in a mess. He lit a cigarette sullenly and leaned against the bed to smoke.

“Is this the smoke after the passion?”

Zhao Jingjing, who had woken up some time ago, asked, as she stared at his profile, with her crystal-like eyes.

Ding Ning shivered all over, and more than half of the ash fell from his cigarette. He gave an awkward, hollow laugh and did not know how to face it.

“Just let me have a puff of the cigarette.”

Zhao Jingjing exposed half of her shoulder, stretched out her delicate hand to grab the cigarette from his hand. She put his arm under her head and puffed away with style.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

Unfortunately, the illusion was destroyed by her violent coughing, which made Ding Ning feel relieved. He laughed as he grabbed the cigarette in her hand and put it out in the ashtray. “If you don’t know how to smoke, don’t smoke”

“Cough, I want to have a taste of the legendary smoke after the passion.”

Zhao Jingjing coughed so hard that she had tears in her eyes. She said this with a bitter expression on her face.

Ding Ning nervously wiped away her tears, looked at her seriously, and said, “I’m sorry.”

“Sorry for what?”

Zhao Jingjing looked at him with a faint smile, which made Ding Ning’s heart beat fast. He bit the bullet and said, “We drank too much last night. I don’t know how it happened.”

“And then?”

Zhao Jingjing looked calm, without any emotion in her crystal-clear eyes. She just gazed directly at him.

Ding Ning felt more and more at a loss. He blushed, and he said awkwardly, “I’ll listen to you. I’ll do as you say.”

“Let’s get married at a registry.”

Zhao Jingjing’s plain words almost made Ding Ning faint. His mouth was wide enough to swallow a duck’s egg.

“What? You’re going back on your word. Didn’t you just say that you’ll do whatever I say?”

The corners of Zhao Jingjing’s mouth curved into a sneer. “How monotonously alike all men are. They turn their backs on old associates once they pull up their pants.”

“I…”

Ding Ning flushed with shame, but he did not know how to refute it. After all, he had done something wrong after drinking too much.

It was obviously impossible for him to marry Zhao Jingjing. He rubbed his nose and said in embarrassment, “Well, can you change the condition?”

“Sure!”

Zhao Jingjing’s words made him happy, but what she said later made him desperate and angry with shame.

“Break up with Ling Yun and be my boyfriend.”

“Impossible.”

Ding Ning’s face darkened, and he said coldly, “Don’t think that you can threaten me after having sex with me. I won’t break up with Ling Yun.”

Zhao Jingjing was not angry. She stared at him and asked curiously, “Do you really like Ling Yun so much?”

“Of course, she’s my girlfriend.”

Ding Ning said impatiently.

“Then why did you sleep with me?”

Zhao Jingjing’s calm tones hurt him more.

“I… I drank too much, didn’t I?”

Ding Ning suddenly answered guiltily, and felt like a deflated ball.

“Isn’t it illegal for a murderer to break the law after drinking too much?”

“How… how can they be the same?”

“How can they be different?”

Ding Ning: “…”

“There’s something wrong with your attitude, humph!”

“Then, give me another condition.” Ding Ning was not imposing at all. He lowered his voice and said.

“Be my boyfriend.”

“Impossible.”

“Why?”

“I have a girlfriend.”

“It’s your business that you have a girlfriend. It’s my business that you become my boyfriend.”

“What’s the logic?”

“I don’t need any logic.”

“You… you’re not… Oh, I get it.”

Ding Ning suddenly realized something and said in surprise, “You want me to be your nominal boyfriend so that I can be a cover up for your lesbian identity.”

Zhao Jingjing, “…”

“Is that so? I guessed right.”

Ding Ning’s face was full of joy, and he secretly praised himself for being so smart.

“Oh!”

But then, Zhao Jingjing covered his mouth with her pink lips…

After making love, Ding Ning was confused. He carefully poked Zhao Jingjing’s soft arm and asked modestly, “Aren’t you a lesbian? How can you make me … so… so… excited?”

Zhao Jingjing’s pretty face turned red. Then she rolled her eyes, gnashed her teeth, and roared, “You are a lesbian, and your family are lesbians too.”

Ding Ning was completely stunned. “What? Aren’t you a lesbian? Then last time you and Ling Yun…”

“Um, I’m a lesbian. I like both women and men, OK?”

Zhao Jingjing immediately gave in and said guiltily.

Ding Ning’s face darkened. Although he tried to cover it up, it was still difficult to hide the disgust in his eyes.

Zhao Jingjing was keenly aware of it and immediately became furious. She lifted the quilt and shouted, “What’s that look in your eyes? You’re my first man.”

Looking at the beautiful plum blossom on the snow-white sheets, Ding Ning was stunned. Zhao Jingjing curled up grievously and turned her back on him, crying.

“Ahem, well, it’s my fault. I should not have doubted you. Good girl, don’t cry, okay?”

Ding Ning inexplicably felt a pain in his heart. He held her in his arms and comforted her in a soft voice. She was small and soft, but weak and sweet, which made people feel pity for her.

Gradually, her sobbing died away. After a long time, she began to snore slightly.

Ding Ning gently held her pretty face and wiped the tears away. Looking at her beautiful face, he had a tender feeling in his heart.

He would not tell her that he was only pretending to be distressed and panicky when he woke up, and found that the woman in his arms was her.

Although he sounded very shameless, he was secretly happy because he knew that he had always liked her. Otherwise, he would not feel such regret, after knowing that she was a lesbian.
