After dinner, Lu Zhen leaned back in her seat and the two of them remained silent.
In the past, Lu Zhen would definitely find a topic to break the awkwardness, but now, she was too tired. Not only was her body tired, but her heart was also tired. She really did not want to say anything, so she just quietly looked at the scenery that quickly flashed past outside the window.
As she watched, Lu Zhen thought of Jiang Fei again. Her thoughts were in a mess, and her eyes dimmed. She fell into a low mood. Gradually, sleepiness overwhelmed her. Lu Zhen slowly closed her eyes and leaned her head against the seat. Soon, she fell asleep.
Song Jia turned around and saw Lu Zhen’s head tilted and her breathing even. He rolled down the window and slowed the car down.
Looking at Lu Zhen’s quiet side profile, Song Jia frowned.
Lu Zhen seemed to be in a bad state. When they arrived at the district where the two of them lived, Song Jia parked the car in the parking lot. At this moment, it was very quiet. There were only him and Lu Zhen in the huge parking lot.
Looking at Lu Zhen’s tired sleeping face, Song Jia couldn’t bear to wake her up.
After hesitating for a moment, he leaned forward and said gently, “Wake up. We’re here. Go home and sleep.”
Lu Zhen woke up quickly. She rubbed her eyes and her big eyes were dazed for a few seconds before she woke up.
Lu Zhen smiled in embarrassment. “l actually fell asleep.” However, to Lu Zhen, sleeping was a good thing. She didn’t have to think about how to get along with Song Jia along the way.
After Song Jia got out of the car, he opened the door for Lu Zhen gentlemanly. Lu Zhen got out of the car. As soon as her feet touched the ground, she felt her body go limp and she almost fell. She hurriedly held the door to steady herself.
“Are you alright?” Song Jia asked worriedly.
Lu Zhen shook her head. “I’m fine, I’m fine. I just lost my balance.”
The two of them got into the elevator together. When they reached the door,
Lu Zhen waved at Song Jia. “Thank you for sending me back. I’ll go home first.
I’ll say goodnight in advance.”
Song Jia watched as Lu Zhen disappeared after the door opposite closed.
When Lu Zhen returned home, she threw her tired body on the sofa and did not want to move. Even though she had slept in the car, she did not feel much better at the moment. She felt terrible.
Lu Zhen leaned against the sofa and closed her eyes, wanting to sleep like this for a while. However, the moment she closed her eyes, the image of Jiang Fei and Lu Rou standing together appeared in her mind. That image overlapped with some scenes from her previous life, stimulating her strongly. She frowned and opened her eyes again.
She no longer had the energy to think about Jiang Fei and Lu Rou. She only wanted to sleep for a while so that she wouldn’t feel so uncomfortable.
Lu Zhen stood up and walked to the fridge. After opening the fridge door, she saw a row of wine bottles on it.
There was originally no wine at her house. Two months ago, Xiaoxiao saw some videos of mixing wine and became very interested. She bought many different types of wine one after another.
Lu Zhen looked at the rows of colorful wine bottles and hesitated for two seconds before taking out four bottles. Returning to the sofa, she sat on the carpet, opened the lid of one of the bottles, and took a sip. This didn’t taste good. Lu Zhen frowned and changed the bottle.
This was too spicy. She opened another bottle.
The third bottle of wine was soft in her mouth and tasted very refreshing.
There was also a slight air bubble. The smell of wine was not very strong. Lu Zhen hugged the bottle and drank it mouthful by mouthful.
After an unknown period of time, when the bottle of wine was about to be finished, Lu Zhen suddenly heard the doorbell ring.
Was Xiaoxiao back?
At this moment, Lu Zhen’s mind was already a little dizzy. She had no idea why Xiaoxiao would ring the doorbell when she got home.
Lu Zhen held the coffee table and slowly stood up. She felt many stars appear in front of her and almost fell. After leaning against the sofa for a while, she walked to the door and opened it.
Song Jia waited outside the door for a long time. He thought that Lu Zhen might have fallen asleep. Just as he was about to leave, the door opened.
As soon as the door opened, he smelled the sweet smell of alcohol. Then, he saw Lu Zhen leaning against the door frame. Lu Zhen looked up at him and their gazes met. Lu Zhen was stunned. “Song Jia?”
Lu Zhen’s tone was abnormal, and her eyes were dazed and unfocused. Song Jia frowned and regretted coming earlier. Something was indeed wrong with Lu Zhen. What was wrong with her? Why was she drinking alone after returning home?
“You’re drunk..” Song Jia looked into Lu Zhen’s eyes and said in a deep voice, “Why are you drinking?”
