Xia Yu came back and saw Zhou Ruolan downstairs in the staff dormitory. He couldn't help but laugh, "If you can't get in, you won't go in. Let's go out and get a room to sleep."
Zhou Ruolan said angrily: "Stop joking and come with me to look for it. The key must have been left in the bar while dancing!"
"I'm afraid I won't find it if I go back and look for it..." Xia Yu said with a smile, "I'll pry it open for you. Let's go. Let me see what kind of lock you use here first."
The lock cylinders of anti-theft doors are usually divided into three levels: ABC from low level to high level. With Xia Yu's ability, it only takes a few seconds to pry open the lock of level A, dozens of seconds for level B, and a few seconds at most for level C.
Minutes are enough.
Zhou Ruolan usually doesn't put anything valuable in the dormitory. The lock he uses is the one that was issued uniformly at the beginning, which is the lowest grade A lock.
Xia Yu found a piece of wire, bent it casually, squatted down and opened the door in two seconds. Zhou Ruolan was stunned for a moment.
"You can actually do this?" Zhou Ruolan asked in surprise, "Do you have to learn to pick locks in the army?"
Xia Yu laughed, "I know a lot of things! Your door lock is too low-level. For such a beautiful woman, you'd better be careful. If someone sneaks in and robs you, it will be a big loss."
Zhou Ruolan blushed, "Okay, I'll change the locks tomorrow. Thank you very much for today, but I'm sorry to have you come back again."
Xia Yu waved his hand, "Don't be so pretentious between friends. I'll leave if nothing happens."
"I see you're sweating all over from running. Come in and drink some water before you leave." Zhou Ruolan said with a smile.
"Okay! Anyway, I can't sleep now when I go back..." Xia Yu said as he entered Zhou Ruolan's dormitory. Her dormitory was far worse than Cheng Lili's. It was just a single room with a bathroom and no kitchen.
Less than fifteen square meters, there is only a single bed, a writing desk, two chairs, a folding table, and a wardrobe.
"Your place is quite shabby! Why didn't you go out to rent a house? At least find a more spacious place." Xia Xia Yu said with a smile.
Zhou Ruolan sighed, "Isn't it good to live in a dormitory for free? The money saved can be used to save money to buy a house...but...it seems like it won't be necessary now! I will rent a spacious place in a while..."
"Uh..." Xia Yu didn't expect that the casual question touched her heart, and he apologized, "Sorry, I didn't mean anything else!"
"It's okay...it's all over! I plan to be kinder to myself in the future. After renting a house, I will let my parents live here..."
As he was talking, suddenly there was a thunder outside, and then strong winds came up, and it looked like a heavy rain was coming.
Xia Yu stood up and said with a smile: "I have to go, let's find a chance to drink next time..."
Before he could finish his words, a flash of lightning illuminated the night sky like daylight, and then there was a roar and a huge thunder sound that seemed to be right next to their ears, making both of them's ears buzz.
At the same time, a few sparks popped out from the electric light and went out completely. Not only did the electric light in the room go out, but the entire dormitory building and the street lights in the courtyard also went out, leaving darkness all around.
Zhou Ruolan was startled and subconsciously leaned towards Xia Yu. When she touched his shoulder, she felt a little relieved.
Xia Yu went to the window to take a look, and said with a wry smile: "It looks like lightning hit the transformer, and the entire dormitory area lost power."
At this moment, heavy raindrops had already fallen, hitting the outdoor unit of the air conditioner and making a crackling sound.
The rain was pouring, Xia Yu closed the window and said with a smile: "Ruolan, it seems I can't leave."
"Then stay a little longer..." Zhou Ruolan said with a smile, "Just wait, I'll find a candle."
She rummaged through the cabinet with the light of the mobile phone screen, and it took her a long time to dig out two exquisite packaging boxes in the drawer. Her movements couldn't help but pause, and her expression was a little complicated.
After hesitating for a while, she finally tore open the packaging of the two boxes, and the contents inside were revealed to be two short, thick red candles.
Every woman has a romantic garden hidden in her heart. These two candles were prepared by Zhou Ruolan for her wedding night. In addition, there were two bottles of expensive red wine.
With red candles swaying and fine wine accompanying me, I went to Wushan with my husband...
However, time has passed now, and all those romantic thoughts are like fragile soap bubbles, burst by the cruel reality, leaving no trace behind.
After the candle was lit, Xia Yu discovered that it was actually a red candle with the words "Double Happiness" gilded on it.
Without waiting for him to ask, Zhou Ruolan took the initiative and said: "I bought it before, so I can't throw it away. I just need it today."
Xia Yu smiled and said, "If there is a bottle of red wine, the atmosphere will be even better."
"There is also red wine..." Zhou Ruolan stood up, dug out the French red wine in his collection, and handed it to Xia Yu, "Open it, I'm not very good at using the bottle opener that comes with this wine."
"No problem..." Xia Yu opened the wine bottle skillfully, smelled it, and said with a smile, "Good wine! It's actually the original product!"
In the darkness, the candlelight reflected the red wine in the goblet with a dreamy red luster. This luster reflected on Zhou Ruolan's pretty face, giving her a unique charm. There is a saying that "seeing beauty under the lamp"
, not even three points beautiful.”
What's more, Zhou Ruolan is a standard beauty, and she looks even more charming when illuminated by candlelight.
Xia Yu admired sincerely: "Ruo Lan, you are so beautiful!"
"Pretty?" Zhou Ruolan smiled self-deprecatingly, raised her head and drank all the red wine in the glass, and said a little angrily, "What's the use of being pretty? It's not like I was dumped!"
She stared at the double happiness on the red candle. She felt agitated for no reason. She poured a full glass of red wine and drank it in one gulp. "Forget it, let's not mention these things. By the way... I found that you are really good at fighting."
, you know kung fu, right?"
"I can barely be considered a master."
"Can you teach me self-defense skills for women?"
"Oh?" Xia Yu smiled, "Okay! A beauty like you really needs to strengthen your self-protection capabilities!"
Zhou Ruolan stood up and said, "Anyway, I have nothing to do now. Please teach me a few tricks first."
"No problem..." Xia Yu stood up and said with a smile, "The principle of women's self-defense is not to injure the enemy, but to use various methods to create opportunities for yourself to escape or call for help. I will teach you a few routine escapes first.
How about...for example, when your wrist is grabbed like this..."
By candlelight, Xia Yu acted as a coach of women's self-defense. One taught and the other learned. When he got tired, he sat down and drank a glass of red wine and chatted for a few words. Soon both bottles of red wine were consumed.
Zhou Ruolan was too drunk. When she was learning how to free herself from someone who had her wrists twisted behind her back, her feet were a bit awkward. She stepped on the heel of her right slipper with her left foot and fell sideways... (To be continued.)
