Hiding Behind Her Superficiality

Chapter 569

Chapter 569 Drunk and Intimate

Later on, they grew even closer, and Cecelia could clearly sense that his attitude toward her had subtly changed. One day, she suddenly found out that the boy in front of her was the same person who had been lying in front of her house covered in blood.

On a sunny afternoon, Yozan confessed his love to her. Cecelia was very nervous because he did it in front of many people, and she didn’t know whether to accept or reject him, so she just stood there awkwardly.

“Why? Why don’t you accept me?” Yozan had a smile on his face, but when he saw that she didn’t seem very happy, his eyes dimmed.

“Because…” Cecelia looked at how disappointed he was and felt guilty for not telling him the truth. “Because I think I’m still too young to be in a relationship.”

Yozan was furious and laughed sarcastically. “Cecelia, you’re already 21. How can you be too young?”

Other reasons were acceptable, but this one was clearly just an excuse. He couldn’t accept it, and he wouldn’t.

“My mom said I can’t date before I graduate from university,” Cecelia blurted out, her face turning red. She was too embarrassed to look at him.

Yozan dropped the bouquet of flowers he was holding to the ground. “Fine, if you don’t want to date me, then whatever. I won’t ask you again.” With that said, he turned around and left without looking back.

The two of them soon graduated from university. During this time, due to the awkward memory of the previous confession, they both unconsciously kept their distance from each other. After about half a

year, it was time for their graduation ceremony.

Cecelia had made plans with some classmates to go out and have fun, but she unexpectedly met Yozan. The classmate who planned the event smiled suggestively and nudged her arm. “I remember you said you wouldn’t date before you graduated from university, but now that you’ve graduated, shouldn’t you two…”

Keep the promise? Cecelia didn’t want to because she liked another person. She looked at Yozan sitting in the dim light, his eyes dark and unclear. The group of people cheered and deliberately left the seat next to him for her. Cecelia hesitated, but in the end, she sat down next to him albeit reluctantly.

“You don’t have to sit here if you don’t want to.” Yozan picked up his glass and was about to move away.

Cecelia saw that he was in a bad mood, so she said, “It’s okay. I want to sit here.”

The two of them sat there in silence until the first song was played, and someone started singing. Only then did the atmosphere ease up a bit. Cecelia didn’t like singing, so she just sat there drinking one glass after another. She looked visibly upset today, and her drinking was getting more and more aggressive.

Yozan tried to start a conversation with her. “Why are you drinking so much alcohol? Did you just have a breakup?”

“Yeah,” Cecelia replied curtly. As soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it because she could clearly feel the air around them suddenly become heavy.

“I can’t believe it. Didn’t you say you wouldn’t date before you go to university? How did you end up having a breakup?” Although Yozan sounded sarcastic, he didn’t mean anything else by it.

He had been secretly paying attention to her all along. She didn’t even have a single person of the opposite sex around her, let alone date anyone. Even those who had a romantic interest in her were privately dissuaded by him. Cecelia lifted a glass of wine and gulped it down. “It’s none of your business.”

As soon as she finished the drink, her wrist was grabbed by him. “Say it again.”

“So, you even want to control how much I drink now?” Cecelia started sobbing, making him suddenly lose the desire to blame her.

Yozan let go of her hand and softened his tone. “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”

Cecelia shook her head, feeling a deep sense of sadness. The person she had feelings for started dating someone else today. It was ridiculous how she had secretly harbored her feelings for him while rejecting everyone else for him, and now this was the outcome.

“If you don’t want to talk about it, then don’t.” Yozan felt sorry for her and could only reach out and ruffle her hair.

“Yozan, do you like me?” Cecelia suddenly stared at him tearfully, feeling aggrieved.

Yozan’s eyes were deep as he said, “I like you.”

Cecelia suddenly smiled foolishly at him and collapsed into his arms. It turned out she had drunk too much.

Yozan picked her up, told everyone they were leaving, and left. Then, he took her out of the club. Cecelia was already unconscious from drinking, so he took her back to her home.

When Cecelia was close to Yozan previously, she had given him a key to her house. Yozan easily opened the door with that key and carried her back to the bedroom. He turned on the warm yellow light and looked at her youthful and tipsy face in a gentle way. Suddenly, she touched his hand lightly which caught him off guard.

Yozan leaned down and gently kissed her lips. He had only intended for it to be a peck, but she surprised him by sticking her tongue out and tracing his lips lightly with it, intensifying his desire. He deepened the kiss. She let out a soft moan and suddenly reached out to hug his neck. Yozan touched her face and said with a chuckle, “You’re the one who seduced me.”

Cecelia, however, did not hear him, and her eyes were misty and confused. They ended up getting together in a hazy way.

The next morning, Cecelia realized what had happened between them and instead of causing a scene, she crouched in a corner and cried for an entire afternoon. Seeing her like this, Yozan felt uncomfortable, so he comforted her, “Don’t worry, I’ll take responsibility for you.”

“I don’t need you to take responsibility for me. I had a part in this.” Cecelia was rational, but her heart was collapsing. She had slept with Yozan, so she couldn’t be with the person she had been thinking about. Despite this, she didn’t want to be with Yozan just because.

Yozan suddenly got angry. “How can we pretend that this never happened when it did?”

“I don’t want to talk about this.” Cecelia was very clear-headed and immediately drew the line between them. “Since you don’t want to listen to me, then we will have nothing to do with each other from now on.”
