The traffic policeman smelled the faint aroma of wine from the car window, and his eyes wandered from Xi Wanlai to Jiang Xiaoou. After seeing her dress, he finally remembered who she was.
Jiang Xiaoou smiled very kindly: "My manager, I drank some wine tonight."
The other party also expressed his understanding. No celebrity wants to be fined for drunk driving on Christmas Eve and make headlines the next day.
The traffic police briefly questioned me and then let me go.
Jiang Xiaoou glanced sideways at Xi Wanlai and saw him taking out a pack of cigarettes from the center console, lighting it irritably, facing the car window, and taking a deep drag.
"I never knew you smoked," she said.
His face was blurred on the window glass: "Occasionally, not often."
She didn't mention the change of driver again. Not long after she got the license, she happened to be filming a movie when she was learning to drive. Her schedule was tight and she couldn't make it. In the end, she spent some money and finally got the license.
Although she was driving very slowly, she still stopped at a corner and the car bumped over somewhere and broke down halfway.
She let go of the steering wheel with a bit of embarrassment. Xi Wanlai put out a cigarette and got out of the car to check. Finally, she had no choice but to spread her hands and call the car repair shop to tow the car.
As a result, no one was too lazy to come out on Christmas Eve, so we finally agreed after some hard talking, asked about the location, and said we would arrive in an hour.
The two people sat in the car and waited. They turned around and looked at each other. They were facing each other. After a pause, they both laughed.
There was a 24-hour convenience store across the road, so Xi Wan said, "Sit here and wait." Then she got off the car and ran across the road.
After a while, he came back with two cans of hot drinks in his hands.
In fact, Jiang Xiaoou didn't eat anything at night. He drank coffee on an empty stomach and felt a bit of tingling soreness in his stomach.
She put down her coffee, lit up another cigarette when she saw Xi Wanlai, reached over and took the cigarette out of his mouth, and bent down to kiss him under his astonished gaze.
Her bold behavior made him stunned. For a moment, his eyes were a little confused, as if he was looking at someone else through her.
When Jiang Xiaoou looked at him, he became even more upright. He caressed his short hair with both hands, held his face, kissed him from the corner of his mouth to his chin, and opened the buttons of his collar one by one.
Xi Wanlai shuddered and suddenly took her hand: "What are you doing?"
She continued to kiss him, her slender legs simply straddled his waist, and she said vaguely: "I'm kissing you. If you don't like it, just push me away."
He was startled for a moment. He never thought that Xiaoou would be so direct.
He stared at her with alert eyes, but she seemed to be risking everything, touching him and teasing him desperately.
He finally froze. Her kiss was itchy, crawling through his pores, his chest, and his heart, like a thousand ants crawling inch by inch on the last string of reason.
Jiang Xiaoou's voice whispered in his ear: "Xi Wanlai... I love you."
But he vaguely heard another voice from the end of time, shouting at him: "Come Xi Wan, I am willing-"
If only time could go back, he would definitely hold her hand and never let go.
He suddenly hugged her back hard, bit her earlobe and whispered.
"Don't leave me..."
The sound was so light that it seemed to be floating in the air.
Jiang Xiaoou was startled for a moment, and suddenly felt his heart hurt slightly, either for this silly man or for himself.
Beside the highway late at night, the black Maybach turned off the engine and parked quietly by the roadside, but the people in the car were nowhere to be found.
