The qualifications of the several graduate students recruited by Shi Ci were average, but they were diligent and obedient and not too troublesome.
The semester is coming to an end, spring is turning into summer, and she takes a break from her busy schedule to have a "heat" massage and facial.
In a corner of the second floor, there is a large space with lavender walls, lush green plants, and elegant and beautiful flower arrangements. It is a relaxing environment.
Shi Ci had her long hair curled behind her head and a thick white mud mask on her face. She lay comfortably while a skilled and gentle technician gave her a stress-relieving massage.
“You really know how to enjoy yourself.”
There were only two beds in the room, but there was a long row of white leather sofas, on which lay a gray Birkin 30 Hermès trench coat.
The person was very tall, with dyed platinum hair, deep eye sockets, artificially plumped lips and thick eyelashes, and a very well-maintained body. She kicked off her high-heeled leather shoes and lay down on the other bed. "Oh, I'm so tired."
The voice is hard to tell whether it is androgynous, it has the crispness and charm of a female voice, but also a little bit of the deepness of a male voice.
Shi Ci didn't even need to open his eyes to know who it was, "Sister Miu, how come you have time to come here today?"
"I just came back from the United States. It's been a while since I last saw you. Come over here and take a look."
Another technician came in and prepared instruments and skin care products to serve her.
Sister Miu lay down and glanced at Shi Ci with a half-smile, "Congratulations on your breakup!"
Shi Ci: “…”
Sister Miu lay comfortably with a facial mask on, relaxing her whole body and enjoying the massage. "By the way, that guy has been busy filming recently, so I guess he hasn't bothered you for a long time, right?"
Shi Ci smiled and said, "Thank you for that."
Wenwen left in a cool manner at first, but later seemed unwilling to give up. She came to heat several times to find Shi Ci and went to L to block her, which has affected Shi Ci's life.
He advised her with kind words and asked sister Miu to help take care of her.
Sister Miu’s surname is Miao, her gender at birth is male, and her gender now is female.
The family started out in real estate and also invested in cultural industries. One-third of the cinema chains in the country are owned by her.
She is the second child in the family. She was born into a good family and works very hard. She is an excellent student. She and Shi Ci are alumni of Stanford University. She returned to China after getting her MBA.
"Why thank me? I had no intention of bringing you together in the first place," said Sister Miu. "Now I am responsible for helping you clean up the mess. This is called taking care of both the killing and the burial."
Shi Ci was speechless for a second, "... I'll treat you to a meal some other day."
Sister Miu waved her hand and said, "We don't have to be so polite to each other."
At that time, Miu was not understood because of her gender identity. After she had an operation without permission, her family cut off her financial support. It was the help of her old friend Shi Ci that saved her from living in such a miserable state. This timely help is self-evident.
Shi Ci smiled and said, "Thank you anyway."
The two massage technicians went out, and there were only the two of them left in the room, which was very quiet.
"I didn't expect you to be with her for so long. You're so clingy and pretentious. You always take advantage of you and treat you like a free ATM. You ask for this and that..." Sister Miu closed her eyes, but her mouth was busy. "You have a really good temper. I wanted to vent my anger for you, but you asked me to say hello when you found out she was auditioning."
Shi Ci smiled faintly.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's turn the page on her. I'll introduce you to someone good..."
Shi Ci said helplessly: "Sister, you are too much like Ms. Ding. I already have a mother!"
Sister Miu also knew Ms. Ding’s personality and her requirements for speech, and couldn’t help laughing.
"Then you should hang out with me more often, don't stay in school all the time, you're becoming a nerd..." Sister Miu opened her eyes and said excitedly, "But there are a lot of young bodies in college... Cute female college students are not bad either."
Sister Miu, born male, now female, female orientation.
Shi Ci still said helplessly: "I don't want to fall in love for the time being."
"Oh? Are you still heartbroken?" Sister Miu was surprised, "You like Wenwen so much?"
Shi Ci sighed softly.
Sister Miu: "Talk to your sister."
Shi Ci: "I like her very much. When we are together, I take care of her life more. It doesn't matter if she likes to act like a spoiled child. I think she is quite cute. As for Wenwen, I know she may still be hesitant about me, and I understand that. In the end, I don't like her enough."
Miu glanced at her. Shi Ci was very principled. He said he would break up and he was decisive and didn't drag his feet. He was also really soft-hearted and took care of her secretly.
But Wenwen had actually already been hooking up with someone else, and she couldn't let go of Shi Ci, so she wanted to have the best of both worlds.
Sister Miu won’t tell her the truth.
"I expect something else about love."
Miu raised her dark eyebrows even without makeup, "?"
"That feeling, the feeling of liking her to the point of being a little painful. When I see her, I feel like everything around me is shining. I can't help it, from the bottom of my heart..."
"Is this what your first love feels like?"
Shi Ci said softly: "She let me know what love is like and made me grow a lot. I still look forward to meeting love."
Sister Miu was silent for a few seconds before she said, "Shi Ci, you are really a romantic."
"But this is something you can only encounter by chance. Some people will never meet someone like that in their entire life, and I may not even have a second chance..." Shi Ci's voice trailed off.
"That's right, you have been blessed by God to this extent! It's time to stop!" Sister Miu looked at her and sneered.
She has a good family background, a pretty face, a good figure, brains, a sense of humor, can make money, and has had a passionate love life.
It's so enviable and jealous!
Shi Ci laughed again after being interrupted by her.
A pair of natural peach blossom eyes with deep eyelids and slightly light pupils. When she smiles, her nose wrinkles slightly and the corners of her eyes are raised, effortlessly giving off charm every minute.
Sister Miu thinks it’s fortunate that she has a high sense of self-identity, because most people would feel so inferior in front of this woman!
At this time, Chen Yiyi pushed the door open and walked in. His eyes first fell on Shi Ci, then on Sister Miu, "Come down and have a drink?"
It was not yet business hours on the first floor, so Chen Yiyi personally mixed cocktails for them.
"It seems like I'm in luck today. Mr. Chen, please give me a glass of Bloody Mary." Sister Miu supported herself with her hands and smiled.
Chen Yiyi agreed and looked at Shi Ci, "What do you want to drink?"
Shi Ci said, "No, just give me some water."
Without waiting for Chen Yiyi to speak, Sister Miu stared at her in confusion, "I've seen you not drinking for several times, have you quit drinking?"
Shi Ci said: "No, I just don't drink outside."
Chen Yiyi didn't say anything, but prepared the ingredients for Bloody Mary. After a while, he said, "It's been a long time. I think I haven't seen you drinking outside for the past two or three years."
Shi Ci chuckled, "Has it been that long? I don't even remember."
Sister Miu glanced between the two of them calmly.
Chen Yiyi said nothing more. She started to mix the cocktail. She added ice to the Boston shaker, and then added 45ml of French Grey Goose vodka, 120ml of tomato juice, two or three drops of Tabasco hot sauce, a small amount of salt and black pepper, 15ml of lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce. She stirred with a bar spoon, then separated the shaker and rolled it.
She was skilled, her delicate wrists flipping in the air, a series of movements that were neat and beautiful. Her long bangs fluttered slightly in the air, which matched her slightly heroic appearance, making her look extremely chic.
Sister Miu took a sip of a Bloody Mary with lots of ice in it, raised her glass towards Chen Yiyi, and turned to look at Shi Ci, "I see that you've been suppressed for a long time, how about I take you out to have some fun?"
When it comes to organizing parties or gatherings, Miu is one of the best. She has a wide range of friends and likes to be lively. She has a few good friends in every circle. Shi Ci and Wenwen met at a party she hosted.
"I've been busy lately and don't have the energy to think about it."
"You're single now, and you're still not interested?" Sister Miu raised her eyebrows again, "Sister will pick one for you. I know you like girls with nice legs."
Chen Yiyi poured himself a glass of whiskey. He paused for a moment after hearing this, but quickly recovered and took a sip of the wine.
Shi Ci still shook his head, "I still don't like this method..."
Her words suddenly stopped, and some long-lost memories came back unexpectedly.
"Oh! E..." Sister Miu wanted to encourage her again, but when she saw that Shi Ci's expression was not right, she was stunned for a moment, thinking about it, and suddenly realized, "You... you still remember what happened that time?"
Chen Yiyi and Miu Jie are both old friends of Shi Ci. In their impression, Shi Ci always smiles without saying a word, is always confident and calm when encountering things. She will be troubled by her family, but it is a kind of trouble caused by soft-hearted doting.
But at this moment, she rarely showed a troubled and complicated expression.
"Hey..." Sister Miu's eyes sparkled, "I'm really curious about who the girl was who you had sex with that night! Why do you still miss her so much?"
Chen Yiyi looked at Shi Ci, frowning, but asked Sister Miu in a seemingly relaxed and teasing tone, "Who told you to give it to Shi Ci at that time? Otherwise, you would know who the god is."
The two people present had different reactions after hearing this. Sister Miu looked back at Chen Yiyi with a smile, while Shi Ci did not smile and seemed to be hesitant to speak. However, it can be seen that she did not like such teasing.
Sister Miu said: "You see Yi Yi is also curious, Shi Ci, just tell me, why do you keep thinking about her, is she good in bed?"
"It's strange, how come you don't know what she looks like after spending the night there?" Chen Yiyi asked.
"Yes! Let me tell you," Miu discussed with Chen Yiyi, "I didn't know who it was at the time, because it was arranged by my assistant. He wouldn't just pick someone from a special industry. He said it was a trainee who needed a chance to debut..."
"Later, Shi Ci asked me about it, so I asked my assistant to investigate. He wasn't sure of her identity either, but she was someone who was asked to help him through connections. It took him some time to finally find the girl."
"Oh?" Chen Yiyi made a sound.
"That girl made her debut not long after that year. She was pretty popular, released a single, and had commercials. But when Shi Ci saw her video, he said it wasn't her that night. Don't you think that's weird?"
Chen Yiyi was really confused now, and looked at Shi Ci, "Yeah, don't you know what she looks like? How can you be sure that the other person is not her?"
Sister Miu also looked at her.
Shi Ci took a sip of water and did not intend to satisfy their curiosity. "This is my private matter. I don't want to share it with you."
She put down the water cup and said, "I'm going back today."
After saying that, he waved to them, stood up and left.
Sister Miu and Chen Yiyi looked at each other, and Chen Yiyi looked away.
"That happened not long after she returned to China, almost three years ago. She still refuses to tell me what happened that night. She just asked me to find out who the girl was and she refused to say anything else." Sister Miu looked regretful, as if she wanted to gossip but couldn't and her curiosity was insatiable.
"Then maybe we can find out by asking that little celebrity?"
"She is no longer a minor celebrity, but a popular star. Her every move can be on the hot search list. Her schedule is very full, and her eyes are looking higher. I actually went to find her in person once, but I didn't ask her directly. She didn't dare to ignore me, but just pretended to be ignorant..."
“So…” Sister Miu spread her hands, indicating that there was nothing she could do.
Chen Yiyi was silent for a while and said, "Is Shi Ci's absence from drinking outside also related to that incident?"
Sister Miu thought about it and said in surprise: "It's true, I haven't seen her drinking outside since that night!"
She tutted, "I'm so curious!"
