Chapter 442: Actually, I Have Superpowers

As the elevator slowly descended, Tang Jing’s heart raced…

She did not know why her heart was racing. It had been many years since she had experienced the feeling of a little girl being in love.

The feeling of someone waiting for her downstairs while she was slowly getting closer to him was too unsettling…

Although her rationality told her that there was no future between Su Yang and her, and that Su Yang did not even think too much about her. However… the feeling of being cared for by someone, especially when it was concern coming from a domineering man did make her heart palpitate slightly…

“First floor.”

Following the notification from the elevator, Tang Jing took several deep breaths before a beautiful smile appeared on her face.

The elevator doors opened and she walked out gracefully.

At the corner of the elevator was the lobby. When Tang Jing walked over, the first person she saw was Su Yang. He was still wearing a T-shirt, shorts and slippers.

Obviously, Su Yang’s outfit did not match with a 5-star hotel. However, in Tang Jing’s eyes, he was the Su Yang that she was most familiar with.

For some reason, the moment she saw Su Yang, her empty heart seemed to have been filled up. She felt a lump in her throat and wanted to pour out all her sorrows to Su Yang…

The moment Tang Jing saw Su Yang, Su Yang saw her as well, donning a formal business dress.

The upper half of the dress was pure white with a V-neck. The middle part had a narrow hem by the waist and black coloured short skirt at the bottom. Although the dress may seem to be a bit formal on its own, it actually gave Tang Jing a gentle character when she wore it.

Her skin was as white as snow and her skin was very tender. Su Yang, who had hugged her before, knew that her skin was as smooth as butter.

The moment Su Yang saw Tang Jing, he smiled and waved at her. “Sister Tang.”

Tang Jing gave Su Yang a gentle smile and walked over. “What brings you here?”

Her voice was soft but had a hint of bitterness in it. However, Tang Jing did sound a little moved with a trace of unnoticeable affection.

Su Yang looked down at her pretty face and said sincerely, “Because I’m worried about you and Xiaomi.”

He paused for a moment. “Xiaomi called me earlier.”

Tang Jing nodded slightly. “I know.”

Su Yang asked, “Can you tell me what happened?”

Tang Jing hesitated for a moment and scanned her surroundings around the hotel lobby.

Su Yang understood what she meant, it was inconvenient for her to speak since there were too many people around.

Hence, Su Yang took out his car keys. “Let’s talk in my car. I’ve got alcohol in there.”

Tang Jing turned around and looked up at the man who was much younger than her. Her eyes were filled with gentleness. “Okay.”

As she followed Su Yang, the 2 of them arrived at the hotel’s carpark. Su Yang opened the car door and helped Tang Jing into the front passenger seat. Then, he went to the front trunk and took out a box of alcohol that he had bought on the way there.

He could not hold his liquor well and was not used to drinking white wine, red wine and beer, so he bought a RIO cocktail that he heard tasted good and had low alcohol content.

Carrying the box of RIO, Su Yang opened the driver’s seat and placed the alcohol beside the seat before getting in.

As he got into the driver’s seat, Su Yang said to Tang Jing, “I’ve seen advertisements of this on TV. The staff at the store also said that girls like this, so I bought it.”

Tang Jing lowered her head and looked at the box of colorful bottled RIOs. She smiled and said, “I do quite like this. How thoughtful of you.”

Su Yang closed the car door and took out a bottle of cocktail from the box. He opened it and passed it to Tang Jing.

Tang Jing took the bottle of cocktail and took a sip. She looked out of the window in a daze.

Su Yang opened a bottle for himself and clinked it with Tang Jing’s before taking a sip.

‘This tastes a little sour with a hint of sweetness in the beginning which is a little weird. Then again, all alcohol tastes weird to me.’

Perhaps because Su Yang had not spoken for a long time, Tang Jing started the conversation first. She sat upright slightly and looked at Su Yang. “Oh right, how did you know that Xiaomi and I are staying in this hotel?”

When Su Yang had just opened his mouth to reply, Tang Jing added, “You’d better not lie to me and say that it was Xiaomi. I’ve checked the records and she didn’t manage to send it.”

Su Yang smiled and said, “Couldn’t Xiaomi have told me the location while we were chatting?”

Tang Jing leaned against her seat and said, “Xiaomi doesn’t know which hotel we’re staying at. I used a taxi app to pinpoint the exact location when we came here.”

Su Yang raised his bottle and clinked it against Tang Jing’s. Then, he explained, “Have you forgotten how we first met?”

As he spoke, Su Yang began pretending to eat some grapes.

Tang Jing covered her mouth and laughed, so much that her chests were trembling as she laughed. “Do you mean fortune telling?”

Su Yang nodded. “That’s right. Don’t you believe me?”

Tang Jing slowly stopped laughing. She lowered her gaze and said lightly, “I used to believe it, but not anymore…”

Su Yang asked curiously, “Why don’t you believe me now?”

Tang Jing took a sip of cocktail and shook her head slightly. It seemed like she did not want to talk about it.

Su Yang glanced at her. Although Tang Jing still looked beautiful today, her eyes were filled with sorrow. This made Su Yang, who had just reminisced about the passing of his grandparents, shudder.

He suddenly remembered that not only had Tang Jing’s grandparents passed away, even her mother had also passed away.

‘She’s such a pitiful person…’

Su Yang smiled and said to Tang Jing, “Actually, I have something to tell you, Sister Tang.”

Tang Jing looked up at him gently. “What is it?”

Su Yang replied, “Actually, I have superpowers.”

Tang Jing smiled. Her smile was gentle and her eyes were filled with love. “I believe you.”

Su Yang took another sip of cocktail and shook his head. “I know you don’t.”

The smile on Tang Jing’s face continued to bloom. “I said I believe you just now, I…”

Before she could finish her sentence, she was stunned because… Su Yang suddenly had a set of clothes that she placed beside her bed in her hotel room.

Tang Jing sat up abruptly and looked at Su Yang in shock as her mind went blank.

However, Su Yang acted as if it was a very simple thing to do. He held the RIO bottle in one hand and passed the clothes to Tang Jing with the other. “Autumn’s right around the corner, so it’s going to get cold at night, you should put on more clothes.”

Tang Jing received the clothes in a daze. Her head was buzzing as she watched Su Yang drinking.

‘I’m sure that I didn’t wear this outfit downstairs, I’m also very sure that I ran for the elevator the moment I left my hotel room.

‘Then, I saw Su Yang the moment I got out of the elevator, so he definitely didn’t have time to pick up my clothes from my room.

‘Furthermore, I’m very sure my clothes have appeared out of nowhere right under my nose, my eyes couldn’t have played tricks on me.

‘What the h*ck is going on?!

‘Could Su Yang really have superpowers?’

Tang Jing looked at Su Yang curiously.

Su Yang was feeling a little tipsy after downing a bottle of RIO. He was never a good drinker to begin with, but he initially thought that maybe he could drink more since RIO had a low alcohol content. However, that did not seem to be the case based on how tipsy he was at that moment.

He glanced at Tang Jing and said with a smile, “Sister Tang, I don’t suppose you still doubt me now, do you?”

Tang Jing shook her head honestly. “I still don’t believe you.”

Su Yang smiled. “Alright then, let me give you another demonstration.”

As he said that, he placed the bottle back into the box and took out a yellowed piece of Kraft paper from his pocket.

Su Yang placed the piece of paper on his palm and said, “Sister Tang, think of something that you would like to fold.”

Tang Jing looked at the piece of paper in Su Yang’s hand and hesitated for a moment. She felt that Su Yang was trying to perform a magic trick to guess what she was thinking.

Tang Jing had seen that kind of magic which was similar to guessing a card within a poker deck, but she had always believed that there was either an assistant behind the trick or the magician would guess what the person who drew the card was thinking.

‘Su Yang’s “magic” should be similar to those.

‘I’m definitely not his assistant. So… All I have to do would be to try and not let Su Yang guess what I’m thinking.’

With that in mind, she racked her brain to try and think of something that a normal person would not be able to fold…

‘What should I get him to fold then?

‘A Rabbit? A Chicken?

‘They all seem a little cliché…’

Just as Tang Jing could not think of what to fold, her eyes suddenly lit up. ‘I got it! I’m very sure that a normal origami folder wouldn’t even think about folding this.’

After confirming what she wanted, Tang Jing said to Su Yang confidently, “I’ve decided.”

Just as she finished her sentence, a miracle happened right in front of Tang Jing’s eyes when Su Yang did not even move at all. The piece of paper that Su Yang was holding onto started to fold on its own without any external force and seemed to have a life of its own as it began to fold rapidly.

Tang Jing was shocked by the scene before her. She did not even have time to drink anymore. She moved closer to Su Yang’s hand and examined the paper that was being folded with a serious expression. ‘The paper is actually moving on its own.’

She raised her head towards Su Yang and looked upwards, only to see Su Yang’s hand that was not moving at all.

She stared blankly at the scene before her. At that moment, she felt that the understanding of the world that she had learned for over twenty years had completely collapsed. ‘What in the world is happening? How is he doing this?

‘Does Su Yang really have superpowers?

‘Is he able to make a piece of paper fold on its own?’

Tang Jing looked at Su Yang and realized that he had already opened the second bottle of RIO. He was drinking while holding the folded paper as if he knew what was going to happen.

When Su Yang saw Tang Jing looking at him, he raised the bottle and gestured.

Tang Jing picked up the RIO in her hand as she looked at Su Yang and gulped it down.

After drinking it, the Kraft paper that could fold itself slowly formed the shape of a Ferris wheel, which was what she had imagined.

Tang Jing looked at Su Yang in shock. “How did you know?”

Su Yang shrugged. “I have superpowers.”

Tang Jing asked again, “That’s not right. How are you able to get that piece of Kraft paper to fold on its own?”

Su Yang shrugged and repeated, “I told you, I have superpowers.”

Tang Jing really believed him that time. Her beautiful eyes shone. “So you were able to find Xiaomi previously and me this time because you have superpowers?”

Su Yang nodded.

Tang Jing looked at Su Yang for a long time before her smile faded. She said with a serious tone, “Then… Why are you telling me this now?”

Su Yang took a sip of his RIO and looked at the dark sky through his window. He said in a melancholic tone, “Probably… Because I’m lonely.”

With that, he placed the bottle under his feet and opened another bottle for Tang Jing. He handed it to her and said, “Here, have another.”

Tang Jing took the bottle of RIO and looked at Su Yang with a strange expression. “Aren’t you afraid that I will tell others?”

Su Yang shook his head. “You wouldn’t.”

Tang Jing was stunned. “Do you trust me that much?”

Su Yang shook his head again. “Not really. It’s just that after tonight, you won’t remember everything that’s just happened.”

Tang Jing was stunned for a moment. She was about to ask Su Yang what he meant when Su Yang spoke first. “The show’s over. Sister Tang, I suppose it’s your turn to tell me what’s happened to you today, isn’t it?”

The timid Tang Jing’s mouth twitched when she saw that Su Yang did not intend to explain what he had just said. She wanted to ask Su Yang a few times, but she still swallowed her words in the end.

She took the bottle and leaned back in her passenger seat. Then, she looked out the window and was silent for a long time.

Perhaps it was because of the various special abilities that Su Yang displayed that night, Tang Jing, who initially did not want to talk about her own matters, slowly recounted what happened that day.
