Everyone's been reborn, so who would bother finding a wife on their own?

Chapter 256 I Have a New Family

Song Huan followed behind Lin Yue, still clutching the silver bracelet in her hand.

She walked ahead, her pace neither fast nor slow, her high heels clicking on the stone pavement like a rhythmic tapping.

He looked at the gold bracelet on her wrist, its bright yellow color shimmering under the streetlights.

He suddenly felt that the moon was particularly bright tonight.

When they reached the building where Lin Yue lived, Lin Yue stopped and turned around.

Song Huan also stopped and stood in front of her.

The two people stood facing each other, half a step apart.

She looked at him, and he looked at the tips of her shoes.

The wind blew, hitting her face with her hair, but she didn't brush it away.

"Don't you want to say anything?"

Her voice was very soft.

Song Huan looked up nervously, "What did you say?"

Lin Yue glared at him. "Are you stupid?"

He scratched his head, thought for a moment, and said, "Um... what do you want to eat tomorrow? I can make it for you."

Lin Yue stared at him for several seconds.

Then she suddenly stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek.

Her lips were soft and warm, pressed against his cheek like a falling flower petal.

He froze, as if someone had acupunctured him. He didn't know where to put his hands, how to stand, or even how to breathe.

She stepped back, looked at him, a smile playing on her lips and her eyes crinkling.

"Song Huan, my foolish Song Huan..."

After saying that, she smiled sweetly, turned around and ran away.

The high heels clicked on the stairs, and the motion-activated lights went up one floor at a time.

Song Huan stood there, stunned, touching her face.

The spot where she had kissed still retained her warmth, it was still hot.

He suddenly realized what was happening, chased after them, stood at the entrance of the stairwell, and shouted upwards with his head tilted back.

"So what is our relationship now?"

Lin Yue's laughter came down from upstairs, floating and bouncing in the corridor.

"I don't know! Figure it out yourself!"

The voice-activated light went out.

The hallway was pitch black, with only moonlight shining in through the window and falling on a small patch of the floor.

Song Huan stood there, touching her face, and smiled.

Back in the dormitory, I pushed open the door.

Li Yang was scrolling through his phone on the top bunk, Zhang Li was sitting in a chair eating sunflower seeds, and Wang Gang was leaning against the headboard reading a book.

The three of them looked up at Song Huan at the same time.

He walked to his bed, kicked off his shoes, lay down, turned over, and buried his face in the pillow.

Then he started rolling around.

Rolling from left to right, and from right to left, the blanket was rolled into a ball, and the pillow almost fell to the ground.

Li Yang leaned down from the top bunk, "Are you crazy?"

Zhang Li threw the sunflower seed shells into the trash can. "What's going on here?"

Wang Gang put down his book, adjusted his glasses, and said, "Looks like it's done."

Song Huan lifted her head from under the pillow, her face flushed, and the corners of her mouth turned up, unable to suppress it.

"She kissed me!"

The dormitory was silent for a second.

Then Li Yang jumped down from the top bunk, Zhang Li stood up from the chair, and Wang Gang sat up from the bed.

"Really?" Li Yang leaned closer. "Where did you kiss? On the lips or the cheek?"

Song Huan pointed to her cheek, "Here."

Zhang Li shook his head. "Just a kiss on the cheek? You're this happy?"

Song Huan chuckled, "You wouldn't understand."

Li Yang patted him on the shoulder, "Alright, alright, since it's settled, let's see a picture. What does he look like that's so captivating?"

This time, Song Huan didn't refuse. She took out her phone from her pocket and flipped to her photo album.

The one that was taken secretly.

Lin Yue's profile, under the streetlights, her hair blowing in the wind, the corners of her mouth turned up, her eyes bright.

He held the phone up to the three people.

"Isn't she beautiful? Even more beautiful than those celebrities on TV?"

Li Yang took the phone and glanced at it.

Zhang Li leaned closer and took a look.

Wang Gang also came over and took a look.

None of the three spoke.

Song Huan looked at their expressions and paused for a moment, "What's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything?"

Li Yang and his roommates exchanged glances.

Wang Gang returned the phone to him.

Li Yang swallowed hard and finally spoke.

"Song Huan, are you sure this is your girlfriend?"

Song Huan nodded. "I'm sure. What's wrong?"

Li Yang looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and said, "This woman... is a hostess."

Song Huan was stunned. "What did you say?"

Li Yang's voice rose, "She's a hostess! Five hundred yuan a night, didn't you know?"

Song Huan's face turned pale. "You're talking nonsense."

Li Yang stood up. "I'm talking nonsense? Go ask her yourself and see if what I said is true."

Suddenly, Song Huan threw a punch, hitting Li Yang in the face.

Li Yang staggered back a step, his lip was cut, and blood seeped out.

"You motherfucker..."

He wiped his mouth, also enraged, and lunged forward, the two of them wrestling.

The chair overturned, the pillow flew away, and sunflower seed shells were scattered all over the floor.

Zhang Li rushed up to pull Song Huan away, while Wang Gang hugged Li Yang.

The two people were separated, and someone was staring at them through the gap.

Li Yang, panting, pointed at Song Huan and said, "You fucking hit me? I was trying to help you, and you hit me?"

Song Huan's face flushed red. "Shut up!"

"You shut up!" Li Yang's voice was even louder.

"She's a hostess! A nightclub hostess! Did you hear me clearly?"

Song Huan tried to rush forward again, but Zhang Li held her tightly.

Wang Gang took out his phone from his pocket, scrolled through it for a while, and then handed it to Song Huan.

"Take a look for yourself."

The phone screen showed a photo taken in a dimly lit karaoke room.

A girl wearing a sexy bodycon skirt, black stockings, and big wavy hair, with heavy makeup on her face, is holding a glass of wine and laughing.

very beautiful.

But Song Huan was all too familiar with that face.

It's Lin Yue.

He looked at the photo, as if his soul had been ripped out.

His hands fell limp, his shoulders slumped, and the light in his eyes went out.

Seeing his expression, Li Yang's cursing subsided.

He picked up the pillow from the floor, dusted it off, and threw it onto Song Huan's bed.

"If you don't believe me, go see for yourself tomorrow. I'll send you the address to your phone."

He didn't say anything more, climbed up to the top bunk, lay down, and faced the wall.

Zhang Li and Wang Gang exchanged a glance and then returned to their respective beds.

The dormitory fell silent.

The fan was still spinning, making a creaking sound.

Song Huan sat on the edge of the bed, holding her phone in her hand, the screen still lit up.

That photo is still up.

He stared at Lin Yue's face for a long time.

He opened QQ and clicked on Lin Yue's chat window.

He typed a message: "Do you work in a nightclub?"

Deleted.

He typed another line: "Some people say you're a hostess, is that true?"

It was deleted again.

She typed another line: "Lin Yue, I have something I want to ask you."

My finger hovered over the send button for a long time.

He put his phone down.

He rolled over and faced the wall.

The walls were white, and there was nothing there.

He stared at that white expanse for a long time.

He didn't send a single message all night.

Its daybreak.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the curtains, falling on a small patch of the floor.

Song Huan was still awake, her eyes open, staring at the ceiling.

My phone vibrated.

A message from Lin Yue.

A cute "hehe" emoji followed by the message, "Baby, I'm going to work now. Love you."

He looked at those words and felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if someone had slashed his chest with a knife.

I can't even breathe.

He closed his eyes, tears sliding down his cheeks and onto the pillow, leaving a small dark stain.

……

Tianxia KTV.

Lin Yue changed her clothes, looked at herself in the mirror, pushed the gold bracelet onto her wrist, and turned it around.

Sister Peach walked over from behind, leaned against the dressing table, and looked at her. "You're laughing so happily. What's wrong? Did you sleep with your little boyfriend yesterday?"

Sister Peach speaks very directly.

It's normal for people who work in nightclubs to take on these kinds of jobs on the side.

Lin Yue blushed and said somewhat angrily, "Sister Taozi, you're talking nonsense."

Sister Peach smiled and said, "Oh, except for Lin Yue. That girl only drinks with customers; she doesn't sell her body."

Lin Yue's long eyelashes trembled, and she suddenly said shyly, "Besides, we haven't reached that stage yet."

Sister Peach asked with a smile, "So, how far have you two gotten? I don't believe that someone as beautiful as you could resist touching you."

Lin Yue lowered her head, her fingers rubbing against the gold bracelet. "Is he an idiot...? We just confirmed our relationship yesterday."

She raised her wrist, the bracelet gleaming under the light. "Look," she said, "this is the gold bracelet he gave me, isn't it beautiful?"

The way she smiles is like that of a little girl who has received her favorite toy.

Sister Peach looked at her genuinely happy expression and was somewhat dazed.

She had seen Lin Yue cry, seen Lin Yue exhausted, and seen Lin Yue staring blankly at her phone.

But she had never seen her laugh like that before.

She reached out and tidied Lin Yue's hair. "Alright, alright, come over and fill out your identification information."

"What should I fill in?"

"Emergency contact number, family member's contact number. Last time you hadn't decided whether to fill in your mother's or your father's number. Have you decided which family member to fill in this time?"

Lin Yue lowered her head and looked at the form.

Name, phone number, relationship.

She picked up a pen and wrote three words in the "Relationship" column: "Boyfriend".

After finishing writing, I put down the pen, looked at the three words, and smiled.

Sister Peach picked up the form, glanced at it, and shook her head with a smile.

"Have you thought it through?"

Lin Yue nodded.

"I've made up my mind. I have a new family now."

She turned the gold bracelet around again, pushed it back in place, and stood up.

"I'm leaving, Sister Peach, the guests are waiting."

She turned and walked away, her high heels clicking lightly on the floor.

Then she turned back and said to Sister Peach from afar, "By the way, Sister Peach, I'm quitting after this month. I'm sorry."

After saying that, he walked away humming a song.

Sister Peach stared at her retreating figure, momentarily stunned.

Looking down at the form, Lin Yue wrote the word "boyfriend" very carefully, stroke by stroke.

She shook her head and put the form in the drawer.
