Sophia leaned against the door and smiled. “Where did Dr. Jack come from? From your home to here, how much is your plane ticket?” Jack frowned, ignored her ridicule and squeezed sideways into the room. On the sofa in the living room, Arya was still holding the phone and talking endlessly. Feeling helpless, Jack hung up the phone. Arya yelled into the phone for a long time and then let out a shout before she cried again. She raised her head and shouted towards Sophia. “He hung up my call. He actually hung up on me again. Soph, I don’t want him anymore, can I. can I dump him?” “No!” The fierce voice made Arya jumped with fright. While sobbing, she looked at him…….why is there an extra person here? He looks so much like Jack! Arya looked down at her phone. Just now, Jack was obviously on the phone with her. This man in front of her is also Jack. Her mind was not clear for a moment and asked foolishly. “How many of you are there?” Sophia burst into laughter. Jack tightened his face and pulled Arya up. “Next time, don’t you dare drink again!” Arya came to her senses and pounced on Jack, hanging to his body. “Jack, that other Jack is no good. He hung up on me and he ignored me.” When she pounced on him, he staggered and nearly fell over. At the side, Sophia was still laughing doubling up her body and wiping her tears. He tried to keep a straight face and hugged Arya before fleeing into her room in embarrassment. Just as they entered the bedroom, Arya shouted. “I want to go to the bed! Carry me to the bed!” Sophia who was outside broke into loud laughter again. Jack unconsciously blushed, put Arya on the bed and in a flash, quickly turned around to close the door to block out Sophia’s laughter. When he turned around, he saw Arya had sat up on the bed holding her feet with a face full of satisfaction. “I’m not wearing slippers.” She said. Jack stared at her. He stared and stared and finally, he sighed and went over to sit beside her. She did not want to sit with him and kicked him but he did not move. Then she rolled to the other side. Jack pulled her over and wanted to hug her. She swatted his hands and pushed his hands away. “Arya, don’t make trouble.” “Jack, don’t be thick-skinned. I am angry with you.” Jack stared at her and she stared back at him. After a while, Jack admitted. “Okay, I’m wrong…….I’m sorry.” “What did you do wrong?” “I was too petty.” “Why were you petty?” Jack pretended he did not hear this. Then Arya asked him. “Why were you petty for so long?” “It hasn’t been too long.” Jack attempted to take back the power to lead the conversation. “These past two weeks, I’ve also been very busy. I’ve to participate in a research project, and I’ve to write a thesis, and I have to attend an exchange program……” “Then it is enough for you to attend the exchange program, why do you still bother to come and look for me? Also that thesis paper, why don’t you write the result of a research on Dr. Jack’s moodiness, his fluctuating cold, and hot temperament?” Jack was rendered speechless. When his Arya is drunk, her fighting power is really indescribable! “Tell me, why did you ignore me?” “I didn’t ignore you.” She stared at him…….she stared and stared and eventually her tears flowed down again. Looking downcast she muttered softly, “If you are so unwilling, you should have ignored me.” “Hey, please don’t cry. Okay, I am wrong.” He muttered. He stretched out his hand and pulled her over to help her wipe her tears. “During this period of time, I have been feeling very sad. I wanted to talk to someone but the way you treated me, I hate you.” “I was wrong.” Mr. Poisonous Tongue said in a low voice and while admitting his mistake, his attitude was good. “What did you do wrong?” “I should not be so cold towards you when you called. I should not be petty.” “Then why were you petty?” “I was angry with you for having dinner with a man. You have put on makeup and you dressed so beautifully. Not only beautifully, you look so sexy and hot in that black dress that day. You don’t even dress so beautifully when you go out with me. You also lied me you were together with Sophia, of course, I would be angry.” Arya was dumbfounded. She blinked her eyes and looked at Jack seriously. “Why do you have this expression?” “Looking at you to see whether you are my Mr. Poisonous Tongue and to make sure I’m not so drunk that I brought in the wrong person.” Jack poked her head. “I can still tolerate it if you had just gone for dinner with another man but if you also dare to bring another strange man into your bedroom, I will deal with you.” Arya pulled down his hand. “I don’t understand.” “You had also given me a nickname? What do you mean by Mr. Poisonous Tongue?” “It is to praise you saying that you are very good in putting people back to their place.” The dizzy Arya flattered him. Thinking about this, she felt she must show him she is righteous and not praise him too much. “No, I’m wrong which means that you are unreasonable and bad-tempered. That is to say, I despise you and dislike you.” “Anything else?” “And you always attract lots of flies.” Jack was surprised. “Arya, you must usually have a lot of free time.” “This tone is indeed you. I’m not mistaken. And with whom did I go out for dinner?” Arya frowned and thought hard. Suddenly she flew into Jack’s arms. “Jack, I have a headache. Give me a massage.” “Is it useful?” Jack snapped but he still reached his hand to help her casually massage. “Jack, I’m thirsty. I want some water.” Jack stared at her for a long time and finally got up. He opened the door and walked out with the intention to get her a glass of water. As soon as the door opened, he heard the sounds of crying from Sophia’s room. He paused and felt the beginning of a headache. He turned to look at Arya and it seems she did not hear as she stared blankly at his back. Her silly soft eyes made Jack halt his footsteps. Unable to control himself, he came back inside and hugged her. Arya also hugged him and after hugging for a while, the atmosphere was just right when suddenly Arya asked. “Jack, how good is your vision?” “What?” “I still can’t remember the man that I went out for dinner with. Could you be mistaken?” “No.” Jack frowned. It seems things were a bit strange. “In which restaurant did you see me?” “Downstairs at your house.” “When?” “It was that day you said you had a dinner date with Sophia and can’t have dinner with me. I saw the time was just right and I came over specially to look for you. As a result, I saw you coming back with a man, laughing and talking with him. Was that Chandler? After he had sent you, he went into the building at the back.” Arya gaped in surprise. “You were cold to me because of that?!” “You lied to me and said you were going out to have dinner with Sophia. Of course, I was angry. I called you and asked where you were and you also said you were coming back with Sophia after dinner.” Arya continued being foolish with her mouth opened. Jack added. “At that time, I was really angry.” “Oh.” Arya did not know what to say or it was she did not want to say anything. With her like this, Jack began to feel guilty. He coughed slightly and said. “But the next day, my anger had subsided. I thought that if you talk to me, coaxed me a bit and I will listen to your explanation. But you didn’t mention it at all and every time you call, you sounded weird.” “Oh.” Arya nodded and did not give any other response. Acting like this, she made it difficult for Jack to understand her. He coughed again and felt even more guilty. “I….today, I’m done with my work and I’m on leave for the next two days, so I wanted to see you. These few days you also didn’t look for me…….” In fact, he also knew that his attitude was not good and she had reason to feel less eager to see him. He would panic once she treats him coldly. “I drove to your building entrance and waited for a while. I was thinking about how to talk to you when you called me.” “Oh.” Arya answered weakly. “Heyy……” Jack bent over and met her eyes. “I’ve already admitted I’m in the wrong and I’m narrow-minded. That…..I hope you won’t throw a tantrum and make this awkward. I promise that I will not be so petty in the future. If I have any uncomfortable feelings, I will tell you directly, is that okay?” Arya stared at him. She stared and stared and suddenly she said. “Jack, I’m thirsty.” Jack frowned. After thinking for a while, he went out to pour her a glass of water. When he came back with the water, he found the door locked. “Arya.” He knocked on the door. The door did not open but Arya said behind the door. “Jack, not only you can be angry. I’m also very angry now!” Making a drunken Arya angry will also have serious consequences.
