Chapter 667 Did She Like Him


    The fun and excitement in the room went on. Austin received a WeChat message from his father,


    who informed him that someone had put a stop to their investigation, and warned the boy against


    provoking Leon.


    Austin replied, "Okay." He then put away his phone and saw that Michelle was chugging back


    alcohol as punishment for losing the game. Her face was red and she was obviously drunk.

    There were no sses in their final year at the university. The seniors were all busy preparing for


    the postgraduate entrance exam or getting internships. They wouldn''t meet again until they returned


    to the campus for the graduation oral examination.


    A very tipsy Rainy cried and hugged her roommates before falling asleep in her boyfriend''s arms.


    Debra and Aron were having a contest. They stood there, ying drinking games, while the others


    watched.


    Resting her head against Lydia''s neck, Michelle admitted, "Lydia, I''m a little sad."


    "There''s nothing to be sad about. We''ll alle back for graduation in June." Lydia patted Michelle


    on the head and reached for her drink. They clinked sses. "Debra and I are staying in the dorm.


    You are in Lexingport City. We can meet any time we want."


    Lydia was not good at drinking so no one let her imbibe too much alcohol. As a result, she was


    rtively sober the whole time.


    She took a modest sip. When she turned to look at Michelle, the other girl had consumed more than


    half of the wine in her ss in one gulp.


    She was impressed.


    Michelle blinked, her eyes bing bleary.


    She was feeling morose that they wouldn''t have any more sses together, but there was


    something else she was sadder about. She just couldn''t figure out why she was feeling sad about it.


    She didn''t want to think about it so she finished the rest of her wine, feeling it sting the back of her


    throat. It was simr to when she first tasted wine, but now the alcohol left a bitter taste in her


    mouth.


    At around half past ten, they helped each other as they left the Silverhall Nightclub and, together,


    made their way back to the university.


    Rainy''s boyfriend had spirited her away. Robin and Kane were so drunk that they had to lean


    heavily on either side of Aron to stay upright.


    Aron sputtered in disbelief.


    He drank more than they did, so he was also buzzed, but they were drunker than he was.


    He shrugged, wanting to be rid of them both. But in the end, he decided not to leave Robin and


    Kane out on the street in fear of retaliation the next day.


    Debra was also drunk but she was still conscious. She staggered as she tried to walk in a straight


    line in front of her friends. "Look! I''m not drunk!"


    "Okay, okay. You are not drunk," Lydia replied in agreement and hurried to support her.


    Michelle''s face was still flushed and she had a little headache, but she had no problems walking


    and talking.


    However, Austin was still worried about her. "Are you feeling dizzy?" he asked.


    "No." Michelle shook her head, but as soon as she denied it, she stumbled.


    Austin reached out to help her but Michelle found her bnce. She turned to face him with a silly


    grin. "Austin, I forgot to tell you that I know where Leon went."


    "Okay." Austin smiled. He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Michelle, how well do you know


    Leon?"


    "I know that he is a good man." Michelle giggled, her eyes narrowing into slits.


    Austin chuckled. It was as if, in Michelle''s eyes, there were no bad people.


    "What about his family? Do you know anything about them? I know he is Nini''s brother. What does


    their family do?"


    "Nini''s family," Michelle paused and frowned. "Poor Nini. She wouldn''t admit it but she led a poor life


    before. After she married Uncle John, I stopped feeling bad for her. He is so good to her."


    The red wine affected her more than she thought. She was definitely tipsy and her words were


    bing slurred. She was smiling a while ago, but now she was angry. "But,ter, Uncle John


    became bad. He lost Nini and he himself went missing. He deserved it."


    "Uncle John?" Austin had secretly investigated Michelle''s background but he couldn''t remember if


    there was a man named John among her rtives.


    "But I''m also worried about Uncle John. If Ninies back and learns that he is missing, she''ll be


    sad," Michelle carried on as if she didn''t hear Austin''s question.


    Austin patiently asked once more, "Who is Uncle John?"


    "Uncle John is Uncle John." Michelle looked up at Austin. "Nini''s husband is Uncle John. His name


    is John Shi. Many people call him Mr. Shi."


    Austin''s mind went nk as soon as he heard the name. It was impossible not to know John Shi.


    However, Austin had never paid attention to scandals. He didn''t know that posts about Nina selling


    her body used to circte the school, let alone the fact that John and Nina were a couple.


    Austin was stunned.


    ''If Nina is really Mr. Shi''s wife and Leon is Mr. Shi''s brother-inw, it makes sense that my father


    was given a warning when he tried to investigate Leon. It had to be the Shi family who did it.''


    Having figured that out, Austin stopped interrogating Michelle. The two of them walked to the side of


    the road where Debra had arranged for two cars to pick them up.


    In the car, Debra shook Michelle''s arm and insisted, "You must put in a good word for me with your


    master. Ask him if I can add him on WeChat so I can pursue him."


    The windows of the car were rolled down, letting the cool night air breeze in. Michelle, who had


    been tipsy earlier, sobered up instantly. She no longer had a headache but her mind still felt a little


    fuzzy.


    She pondered over Debra''s words a couple of times before her eyes widened in surprise. She


    asked, "You like my master?"


    "Yes." Debra nodded. "Yes, I like him! I like men who look cool and fierce."


    Michelle blinked in confusion, her eyshes fluttering. "But you''ve only met Wynn once. How did


    you know that you like him?"


    "Listen." Debra took Michelle''s hand and pressed it against her chest. "Isn''t my heart beating very


    fast? And touch my face. Aren''t my cheeks warm and red?"


    She pressed her cheek to the palm of Michelle''s hand. Then, she admitted, "The first time I saw


    Wynn, I was obsessed with him. When I think of him, my heart beats fast and my face turns red."


    "But our hearts beat all the time. If it didn''t, we would die," Michelle said.


    Aron, who was seated in the front passenger seat, turned to look at Michelle. The corners of his lips


    lifted slightly into an indulgent smile.


    Seated on the other side of Michelle was Lydia who couldn''t help herself and burst intoughter.


    Michelle seemed confused, so Lydia kindly exined to her what Debra really meant.


    "What Debra means is that, when she first saw Wynn, her heart beat faster and she blushed. These


    are indicators that she likes him. She''s fallen in love with him at first sight."


    "Yes, exactly." Debra nodded. "My heart felt like it was about to jump out of my chest. It was beating


    so fast."


    ''The heart beats faster? As if it could jump out?


    This is love?


    I''ve felt like this more than once when I was with Leon.


    So I like him?''


    Michelle was shocked.
