See You Again (Time Already Knows) - Chapter 21
Chapter 21 - “Baby, Oh No, I Think I’m About To Be Pregnant.”
Shi Jian came out of the shower. The conditions at the Yi Mao dorm weren’t bad; they were even supplied with hot water in the winter.
Lai Qiao and Zhao Yilin were at the dorm tonight doing their own things. The atmosphere was pretty quiet. Lai Qiao seemed to not be on the same page as Zhao Yilin. Lao Qiao saw her come out and said, “Shi Jian, come look at this joke. It’s so funny.”
Lai Qiao was subscribed to a daily joke text message service on her phone, with a fee of around fifty cents per joke? Shi Jian dried her hair with her towel, then walked over to look at the joke on Lai Qiao’s phone. Today’s joke was about a young lady picking mushrooms. It was quite amusing, but she’d seen this joke many times before, and had listened to other people tell it many times, so she couldn’t sincerely laugh at it.
To be polite, Shi Jian still chuckled.
Similarly, she had no interest in watching the current trending television dramas, because she’d watched them all before. One kind of distress was that she already knew the endings, and even more distressing was that she had been anxiously waiting for the fourth season of a show from the United States, in the end…… She and Ye Jiacheng had even made a bet on who the final boss was, now she didn’t know who would win.
On the contrary, Lai Qiao liked to watch dramas with her. Her purpose was probably similar to a “live chat”. Every time, she could give Lai Qiao a notice for upcoming scenes.
Shi Jian sat down and opened her laptop to write a paper. Her original senior thesis was «Weight-Bearing Research and Optimizations on Steel Reinforced Wooden Pallets». It was ten years ago, so she had absolutely no way to write it again. She hurriedly contacted her teacher and changed it to «Safety Precautions in Engineering Construction». She could still write something out if she used effort with this kind of “ambiguous” title, and could even use the Gelan City project as an example.

She always stuttered when she wrote things. She used the top of her pencil to support her chin, writing a bit and then stopping for a bit. She might as well just let her brain follow her pencil’s slight swaying. Suddenly, an ear-piercing noise came from her left. As she jerked her head towards it, her pencil knocked against her chin a bit painfully.
What happened?
Zhao Yilin was looking for something. She looked through the communal drawer, and seemed to have come across some evil object, and immediately tossed it out.
Surprisingly, it was a box of condoms.
Shi Jian nearly spat out blood. Shi Jian was diffident, and sprang up. According to her logic, she didn’t put the two boxes of condoms she got from Ye Jiacheng into the communal drawer, and it wasn’t this color…… Then, without waiting for her response, Lai Qiao had already rushed out with a scarlet face, picked up the box, and demanded: “Zhao Yilin, why are you throwing away my stuff?!”
“So this was yours.” Zhao Yilin sized up Lai Qiao with a judgemental stare, and spit out, “How vile.”
What! The rims of Lai Qiao’s eyes reddened. She angrily said: “I’m twenty-two years old, so what if I have sex?!”
Zhao Yilin sneered, then looked towards the towel rack in the bathroom. There were three people’s towels on it, including the one Shi Jian just used to dry her hair. Zhao Yilin continued: “Lai Qiao, I hope you won’t touch my things in the future.”
Everyone understood the distinct implication of her words.
“Bang!”
Shi Jian shut her laptop and walked over. Lai Qiao was already angry to the point of trembling. She held Lai Qiao’s hand, gave a slight smile, and asked Zhao Yilin in response, “Yilin, you’re just accusing this because of your lack of experience, right?”
Zhao Yilin gnawed on her lip, silent. Shi Jian originally felt that she couldn’t use her age to bully others, but right now she was using her age to argue against Zhao Yilin. Faintly, Shi Jian felt her hand being tightly gripped by Lai Qiao. It turned out that this angry and expressive girl just now was also cowardly and afraid on the inside.
“I am accusing because of my lack of experience?” Zhao Yilin had an uncomprehending expression, “You are too vile.”
You all…… The one that Zhao Yilin actually had objections to was not Lai Qiao, but herself.
Shi Jian didn’t realize that their relationship within the dorm was actually that terrible. She used to not give this area too much attention, and had no idea that Zhao Yilin could not put up with her and Lai Qiao from the start. Additionally, she didn’t know Zhao Yilin was that conservative. Being conservative was one way to be a person, but they were all adults, so couldn’t they respect one another?
“Could it be that you’re still a virgin?” She returned with a light yet teasing tone.
Shi Jian conceded that this question might hurt Zhao Yilin, but Zhao Yilin had hurt Lai Qiao first. She and Lai Qiao were friends, but she and Zhao Yilin were only roomates. Of course she would side with Lai Qiao.
Zhao Yilin stomped off. Shi Jian guessed that she wouldn’t ever return.
……
“Zhao Yilin is simply crazy.” Lai Quao sat down, still unable to suppress her anger, “I curse her to be a virgin her whole life.”
Too cruel, but Shi Jian was even less kind. She used a finger to draw a circle: “Curse activated.”
Lai Qiao brightened, finally smiling through the snot.
“Alright.” Shi Jian comforted Lai Qiao, “It’s okay.” In her memory, Zhao Yilin really did write that she was unmarried in her book. It could only be said that everyone had their own way of living.
Lai Qiao lowered her head, slowly, and honestly admitted: “Shi Jian, Cheng Zisong and I are together.”
Shi Jian: “En……”
She didn’t know what to say. She didn’t expect Lai Qiao to still get together with Cheng Zisong. Maybe she had it wrong from the start. Feelings were just like a raging flood; it couldn’t be blocked, and you could only endure the havoc. At that time with her and Ye Jiacheng, when Ye Jiacheng pursued her, she also felt that this man was unreliable, but still fell in love with him in the end.
Now, she still only wanted him.
“It was the few days during the Yi Mao store celebration. I was sent to support an event outside the city, remember? Cheng Zisong accompanied me, then we……” At this, Lai Qiao looked at her, scouting for her reaction.
Shi Jian curved the edges of her mouth, revealing a slight smile. She grasped Lai Qiao’s hand, and seriously coughed out: “Lai Qiao, congrats to you, you have smoothly turned from a little girl to a cute woman.”
“Shi Jian……” Lai Qiao gazed at her, “Don’t you think I’m wanton?”
“How could I?!”
“True.” Lai Qiao blinked, suddenly thought of something, and said, “I know you are also…… hehe. This is too good.”
Actually she……
Shi Jian let it go. Forget it. Even if she wasn’t, to react would be meaningless. Then it probably was not a problem. Lai Qiao very generously shared her feelings of joy with her.
Late at night, the conversation turned mature rated.
Lai Qiao unceasingly asked about her experience. Shi Jian could only talk about the ones in her memory.
Shi Jian lay on her single bed thinking about her married sex life that she had before. That was a really intoxicating feeling. Actually, her and Ye Jiacheng’s marriage was always in good condition. Their cooperation in that aspect did have a relation to it. They were a pair of husband and wife, he and she could also happily play games. She and he had also roleplayed as the White Lady and Xu Xian before. When Ye Jiacheng was having an intense day, she excitedly sang, “Water of the west lake, my tears, I would rather turn into a ball of flames with you, ah ah ah……”
The result was that Ye Jiacheng laughed on top of her. She thought he would lose control, Ye Jiacheng forcefully bit her earlobe, “Baby, you're done for. I think I’m about to lose it.”
Luckily, it was still usable after recovery.
……
Thinking about it, she actually became a bit shy. Shi Jian sighed and pulled up her blankets to conceal her face.
Suffocating and sweltering, she lifted the blanket, and her leg hit the railing of the top bunk. This wouldn’t do; would she have to acquire Ye Jiacheng’s body before acquiring his heart?
Otherwise, she would have to walk with her pure heart, against Ye Jiacheng’s deft and sly heart. Just how long would she have to walk for?!
