Wen Liang cleared the dining table and came out with his freshly washed hands. At a glance, he saw He Tianran standing on the balcony holding a mobile phone with a worried look on his face. He couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "What happened?"
He Tianran turned his head, "Do you know about Xue Yong and Bai Tingting?"
Wen Liang thought for a while, "Tingting posted a vague message on Moments before, but it can be seen that she is in love. I am familiar with Xue Yong, but I have never heard him talk about it."
He Tianran sighed and said: "They have been together for more than three months. Bai Tingting couldn't find anyone else today, so she called me anxiously. I just called Xue Yong, but I didn't expect that this guy is in the nightclub now. As for Xiaoyao, I don’t even know what to tell Tingting.”
After listening to this, Wen Liang thought for a few seconds and gave some advice:
"It's very simple. There are two solutions. First, you call Bai Tingting now and tell her about Xue Yong and let them argue. Anyway, you have done everything you should do; second, you go Find Xue Yong and find out what the situation is between your brother and his girlfriend. Then you can weigh whether to tell Bai Tingting the truth. But I personally suggest that you choose the first option. As for the reason, I don’t want to say. "
He Tianran smiled bitterly and said: "Okay, I won't ask if you don't tell me, but I can't just pretend to be stupid and dumbfounded and pretend not to know about this?"
Wen Liang said disdainfully: "I'm talking about a solution, not a way to escape. And if you really don't care, you probably won't stand on the balcony blowing the cold wind."
It has to be said that Wen Liang still understands He Tianran. The boy put the phone in his pocket and rubbed his face with both hands.
"Oh, then I have to go to Queen Street. I haven't been to a nightclub yet."
After a gentle pause, he asked with a sneer: "Is he in Mix or Space?"
"Uh...he's at babyface."
The conversation between the two rhymed inexplicably. Wen Liang turned around and said, "Let's go, I'll drive you there."
From just now, He Tianran realized that Wen Liang's state was not quite right. Why did he say: "...No need, right?"
"Stop the ink. After all, Xue Yong and I are also friends. It's only natural for me to go and see him."
Wen Liang replied impatiently, and briefly explained to her parents in the living room. She used the excuse that Xue Yong was nearby, and the three of their classmates would get together and would definitely go home before half past ten.
Mother Wen sent them out and watched the two of them leave. After closing the door, she walked to sit down next to her husband who was watching the football match. Seeing that the other party was watching the game with great interest, she couldn't help but slap her husband hard on the thigh. With a slap, Father Wen's back trembled, he turned his head and said in confusion:
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just feel like your reflexes have slowed down a bit."
"Ah, no, I'm responding well."
"Really? That's good."
Mother Wen showed the same sneer that Wen Liang had just shown on the balcony.
…
…
Bai Tingting's call came sooner than expected. He Tianran hadn't seen Xue Yong yet, so he could only lie and say that he was in contact, telling her not to worry and that he would notify her as soon as he knew the news.
Wen Liang was driving next to her. After hearing the whole process of He Tianran's lies, she said calmly:
"Do you boys always protect each other like this?"
He Tianran just hung up the phone and felt a little embarrassed when faced with this question.
"Isn't it unclear what the situation is? What if Xue Yong just went to have a drink?"
Wen Liang sighed, "Before what happened to us, you...you should know what kind of person Xue Yong is."
He Tianran nodded, but still tried to save his friend: "I understand what you mean, but you may not know that he has really changed a lot in the past year. Even I admire him for working hard to get into the police academy. And As the saying goes, a prodigal son will never be able to exchange for gold."
"I hope you're right."
Wen Liang said no more, and He Tianran secretly took a look at her expression at the moment.
She looked at the road ahead intently, with a bit of seriousness and silence on her face. The car was speeding, and the vast swaths of neon in the bustling city were like a group of intoxicated butterflies. They squeezed through the tall buildings, passed through the car windows, and fought together. He threw himself on the girl's face, looking into her eyes.
New neon lights come and go, over and over again, but in the end, they still cannot escape the fate of fading away, leaving behind a face that is afraid of being like the light.
"Why...the first suggestion doesn't want to tell me the reason?"
"Because I no longer have any obligation to teach you."
Soon after, the two finally arrived at their destination.
Queen Street is the busiest place for nightlife in Hong Kong City. To be precise, it is actually a cross-shaped area formed by the intersection of two long roads. 40% of the bars and nightclubs in Hong Kong City gather here and serve as a commercial area during the day. This is the fashionable lifestyle landmark of the port city, and every night, the place becomes bright and bustling with people, and the light reflects the hustle and luxury of the metropolis.
In fact, Anhe District, where the University Town is located, also has extremely rich nightlife. Thanks to the economic effects of the surrounding universities, there are also many bars and nightclubs. However, compared with Queen Street, the standards here are higher and the quality is better. As for consumption... Naturally, it will also discourage most students.
Wen Liang drove the car to the entrance of the nightclub and said to He Tianran:
"You get out of the car first. I'll find a place to park the car. The parking space here is hard to find at first glance. If you can't wait, just go in and I'll come find you when I'm ready."
"Um."
After He Tianran got out of the car, he watched the white Highlander disappear among the colorful bustling, with dynamic music buzzing in his ears. With a casual glance, he could see some urban girls with exquisite makeup and sexy clothes. Walking proudly and being here, it feels like even the air will become sticky.
There was a row of luxury cars parked at the entrance of the nightclub. Just by looking at their appearance, you could tell they were expensive. However, there was a BMW X5 among them, which suddenly occupied the central C position among the luxury cars. Even Daniel and F12 High-end cars have become a foil, which made He Tianran stop for a moment.
"This car..."
He Tianran shook his head, stopped his thoughts, stopped thinking about what was and was not, and walked into the nightclub on his own.
Although the bar where He Tianran worked before was similar in nature to this kind of noisy nightclub, the gameplay and purpose were quite different. At least some of the guests from Yanjiao Alley actually invited a few friends to listen to music and drink. Here...
"Handsome guy, booth or stage?"
As soon as he entered the hall, a girl wearing a fashionable suit walked over enthusiastically. He Tianran looked around and saw many people standing at the door of the hall, most of them holding mobile phones, waiting for someone, or Resting, he replied:
"I'm looking for someone."
"Oh, that's right, handsome guy, how about you contact your friends?" the girl in the suit said with a smile.
"You have tickets, right?"
The girl in the suit nodded: "Well, today is Friday. The admission fee is 150. If you have a friend, you can ask him to ask someone to pick you up. It will be much cheaper."
"If he could get through on the phone, I probably wouldn't come."
He Tianran said helplessly. The girl smiled appropriately and did not embarrass the other party at all.
Everyone was here, so there was no need to dwell on this feeling. In the end, He Tianran paid the money painfully. The girl in the suit put a fluorescent pattern on his wrist, and the security guard swept it with a purple light, and he was allowed to enter.
He Tianran was holding a mobile phone in his hand, and the lights were shining on the dance floor. In front of the huge LED screen on the stage, a white DJ was playing discs in a flamboyant manner. The restless music seemed to knock off the roof. In this environment, a person's heartbeat might They will all speed up.
"Handsome guy, are you a college student? So am I. Let's exchange WeChat messages. If you can't find friends later, just contact me and come to our table to play. We are also sisters. The card you bought does not count your drink money. If you want to order a card in the future, you can contact me and I will give you the biggest discount I can give you~"
Because it was too noisy, the girl in a suit leaned into He Tianran's ear and spoke loudly.
He Tianran was still searching carefully for where Xue Yong was, and the phone in her hand was snatched away from her. When the other party handed it over, there was already an additional contact in the address book, a note after the name, and even a heart. expression.
The girl named Nao Nao in front of her returned her mobile phone and swayed slightly to the music of the nightclub. She had a provocative smile on her lips and her eyes were blurred. Under the lights of the nightclub, she looked particularly ambiguous.
"Well, let's talk about it later."
He Tianran said politely, Nao Nao pointed his fingers at his own eyes, then pointed at He Tianran's eyes with his backhand, then waved his hands and left gracefully, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Although it was the first time for He Tianran to come to this kind of place, he had been working in a bar for such a long time, and he had seen this kind of wine selling routine before. However, it seemed that it was not as simple as just selling wine...
This situation seems to be happening every minute on this occasion. The men and women on the dance floor are swaying their young bodies wantonly, and their hormones are being released. Under the flickering lights, they seem to form a famous painting at this moment. A picture of desire.
He Tianran wandered between the booths and the dance floor. When he looked up by chance, he finally saw Xue Yong's figure next to a booth on the second floor that overlooked the dance floor.
He walked upstairs and saw Xue Yong and his friends from a distance. There were several girls of the same age sitting next to them, changing glasses and playing around. They were really happy.
At this moment, He Tianran was confused, and he asked himself -
What am I doing here?
He Tianran is also a man. He can fully understand Xue Yong's current state without even thinking about it. He is not a moral defender, so he must turn his back on him.
But now it seems that Wen Liang's suggestion on the balcony was right.
Xue Yong discovered He Tianran, and the smile on his face stopped, and then bloomed even wider.
He stood up, clapped his hands, and shouted, "Look who's coming!"
In the booth, his friends and several girls were attracted by his actions and all looked at He Tianran.
Xue Yong walked over quickly and pulled He Tianran to the booth. With a push of his hands, he pushed his friend to sit on the sofa.
"Xue Yong, you..."
"Shh~"
Xue Yong was behind He Tianran, with his index finger on his lips, pointing drunkenly at the people present, and said vaguely:
"Hiccup, let me introduce to you, this, I, Xue Yong, my best friend at the same time! Listen clearly, at the same time, also my most awesome friend, congratulations! Tian! Ran! Congratulations to Director! He is the number one scholar in the directing department of the Film Academy. Everyone knows about Shanhai Technology, right? He~hiccup~ calls He Panshan daddy! Authentic, the prince of a wealthy family!"
"Brother Tianran!"
"Director He!"
"Brother Tianran~"
"Brother~"
He Tianran's shoulders were slapped loudly by Xue Yong. After hearing this, the men and women present raised their glasses and toasted He Tianran flatteringly. However, the boy was still sober. He waved his hands repeatedly to indicate that he would wait a moment, frowned and said to Xue Yong:
"Xue Yong, you are drunk. Do you know Bai Tingting is here..."
"Do you understand the rules?! You all just wait a minute!!"
Before He Tianran finished speaking, Xue Yong roared and everyone dispersed their wine glasses. He waved to the greasy-headed middle-aged man who was looking over not far away and shouted:
"Manager! Come here!"
The greasy-headed middle-aged man walked up to Xue Yong, lowered his head and asked:
"Brother Yong, what's wrong?"
Xue Yong lit a cigarette and said, "Go, have a black A dragon, hiccup~ What about, the dance floor, the booths in the ABC area, walk me through them all, and the foreign DJ on the stage, is he the top 100?"
The middle-aged manager shook his head: "No."
"Okay, let him speak Chinese later."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now."
The manager pressed the Bluetooth intercom on his ear and hurried down. The men and women present cheered, but He Tianran looked confused. He pulled Xue Yong who was standing aside to him with force, frowned and said:
"What happened to you today?"
"Shh~~~Ah~~It's all in the wine, it's all in the wine~"
Xue Yong fell on the sofa, face up, and the cigarette in his mouth was emitting wisps of green smoke, like an incense going to a grave.
He said hoarsely, "Tianran, tell me...why, why is it so tiring to have a serious relationship...?"
"You and Tingting...have a conflict?"
Xue Yong waved his hand, "It's not a matter of contradiction or not, I can't tell... I'm just tired... You said that the happiness that can be bought with money is also the happiness that is bought with real money and genuine goods, right?"
He Tianran really couldn't give an answer to this question.
At this time, the dance music at the nightclub suddenly changed. From the staff passage, a long queue of staff slowly walked in. All of them held dazzling spade-shaped light signs in their hands, and some held them in both hands. Boxes filled with dry ice and white gas, and dynamic and high-spirited music instantly heightened the atmosphere to the extreme. This line of people swam across the dance floor, passed through the booths, and slowly went up to the second floor. The white DJ on the stage used extremely lame, but elegant He yelled in perfect Chinese:
"Dragon~Area 07~~~Mr. Xue!!!"
Huge characters jumped out of the LED screen behind him. He Tianran was stunned by the sudden formation. Xue Yongren stood up immediately and put his feet on the sofa. He raised his hands high and twisted to the music. His friends were all extremely excited. A group of waiters arrived at the booth and opened several boxes one by one, revealing the gold-plated champagne inside.
"Xue Yong! Xue Yong! What the hell are you..."
"Shh~ Today we brothers, let's be wild and happy, okay?"
Xue Yong jumped off the sofa. Now this table has undoubtedly become the focus of most people's attention. Early in the morning, he noticed that there was a table of girls not far away who had been paying attention to the situation here. He comfortably picked up the champagne glass and gently pointed in that direction. In one fell swoop.
Within ten seconds, a group of warblers came over one after another, and the originally huge booth was filled with people in an instant.
"Hi~ Handsome guy, I didn't expect us to meet so soon~"
Nao Nao, who had led He Tianran in just now, also appeared here. She sat down next to He Tianran without any scruples, and the two of them were squeezed together in an instant.
Xue Yong was happy when he saw it.
"Hey, are there any acquaintances?" After saying that, he swept his eyes up and down the noisy little suit and shook his head with a fake sigh, "No way~~Classmate~~"
Nao Nao smiled, and looked at He Tianran with charming eyes. Her hand moved to the outside of her thigh. It was originally a pair of well-covered suit trousers, but there was a small zipper on the side. She gently pulled it open. , slowly revealing a section of long black stocking legs...
"ohhhhhhhhhhh~"
The men and women in the booth were really impressed by the visual impact of this design. He Tianran was the closest to her and could see the most clearly, and his throat squirmed subconsciously.
Xue Yong raised his eyebrows at his best friend and asked:
"Brother, are you happy?"
