Liang Haicong had been feeling aggrieved all day. At this moment, with the help of alcohol and the strength of the wine, he finally let out his unhappiness.
When a man sheds tears, he doesn't shed them lightly, but they are not sad yet. At this moment, Liang Haicong burst into tears.
"Uncle... If you don't fail, it's Su Ranfang who fails. She's the one who's sorry for you." Ye Wentian comforted,
"I think... with her character, she must be feeling more uncomfortable and regretful than you right now."
"Wentian, I...I can't understand..."
"Maybe... maybe for me, this is a relief... Haha..." Liang Haicong was too drunk, his eyes gradually became scattered and blurred, crying sometimes, laughing sometimes, as if he was crazy.
The bar owner noticed the situation here, thought something had happened, and stepped forward: "Sir, do you need any help..." Before she could finish her words, her eyes suddenly narrowed: "You... you are... Liang Haicong ?Brother Cong?"
"Huh?" Liang Haicong was a little stunned when he saw her: "Do you know me? Are you..."
"Are you really Brother Cong? I am Xuemei, Lin Xuemei, don't you remember me? When I was young, I lived next door to you, and we often played together..." When Lin Xuemei saw Liang Haicong, there seemed to be light in her eyes. She looked very Young, maybe in her forties, her charm is still there. She is dressed in an ancient style dress, and she looks like a chivalrous woman again. Although she is old, she still cannot hide her beauty in her youth. The cool river breeze blows, and her clothes are flowing. The fluttering hair adds a bit of fairy air to her.
"Xuemei, you...are you really Xuemei?" Liang Haicong looked at her blankly. He remembered.
There were some tears in his eyes.
"Well, Brother Cong, it's been twenty years. I didn't expect that I would... meet you here after twenty years." Lin Xuemei was excited and her pretty face turned red.
"Xue... Xuemei, long time no see." Long time no see. Memories that have been sealed for many years are gradually opened.
Lin Xuemei. His first love. Childhood sweetheart’s first love! It's also each other's first love. After more than twenty years.
Time makes people grow old, and Liang Haicong has long buried this feeling deep in his heart. Twenty years have passed, and the appearance of his old friend has gradually faded away.
Never thought that when he was at his lowest, he would meet him again.
"Yeah, long time no see, twenty-four years." Lin Xuemei smiled sweetly, her eyes full of concern: "Brother Cong, what's wrong with you? I remember you didn't drink alcohol back then."
"Something happened." Liang Haicong smiled bitterly, wiped the tears from his face, took a deep breath, and said, "It's okay not to say it, it's okay not to say it."
"By the way, Xuemei, let me introduce you. This is my nephew, Ye Wentian. This is my nephew's..." Liang Haicong wanted to say maid, but felt disrespectful to Qin Ruoxue, so he thought for a moment and said,
"My nephew's secretary."
"Wentian, this is...well, my friend."
"Hello, aunt!"
"Young man, you are really a talented person." Lin Xuemei praised: "And your secretary has attracted the attention of many people in the tavern." Ye Wentian counted with his fingers and determined that the person in front of him was most likely to be his uncle's love interest, so He quickly said: "What, aunt, you guys chat, I suddenly have something urgent to do. Uncle, please drink less. I will come to pick you up in a while. If you need anything, call me." Without waiting for Liang Haicong to answer.
Ye Wentian was about to drag Qin Ruoxue away. but. The two of them didn't have time to leave. Suddenly, a large group of people ran in from outside the tavern.
The leader was in his thirties, wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt, a large gold chain, a Hermès belt around his waist, and LV leather shoes at his feet. He was followed by thirty or forty younger men, who walked with a breeze.
"Brother!" In the tavern, a man who had just secretly taken a photo of Qin Ruoxue ran up to him and said something to him. At the same time, he pointed at Ye Wentian from time to time.
"Brother Cong, Wentian, please wait for me a moment, I'll go see what's going on." Lin Xuemei obviously knew who the former was, her expression changed at first, and then she put on a professional smile and walked out in a panic: " Brother Chen, why are you here? Haven't you already paid the management fee this month?" Not only Lin Xuemei was panicked, but the staff in the tavern were also worried.
The tavern immediately fell silent, and many people did not dare to speak. Ye Wentian pulled over a waiter curiously: "Who is this guy? Why is everyone so afraid of him?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, don't let him hear!" The waiter hurriedly whispered: "His name is Luo Chen, known as Brother Chen. He is one of the administrators of Tianxiang Bridge's generation. He is one of the leaders responsible for collecting management fees. He’s a super ruthless person. Two days ago, someone accidentally bumped into him and he broke his leg on the spot.”
"management fee?"
"It's just protection money!"
"Oh." Ye Wentian was a little speechless. Now these mixed society people also know how to package themselves. They call protection fees as management fees. They are really advanced.
"I'm not here to collect management fees today. I heard that a beautiful woman came to your pub. I came to see her, haha..." Luo Chen pushed Lin Xuemei away and walked in with a group of younger brothers.
The younger brother who had taken the photo before saw Qin Ruoxue, pointed at her and said, "Brother, that's her!"
"Hiss!" Suddenly. Luo Chen was stunned! beautiful! It's so beautiful! After all, he was also the eldest brother, and he had seen countless beauties, but at this moment, he just glanced at Qin Ruoxue and was stunned, his eyes never wanting to leave.
Then, he immediately came to Qin Ruoxue. Ignoring Ye Wentian and Liang Haicong, he said domineeringly: "Beauty, I, Tianxiangqiao Luochen, want to make a friend with you, a sexual friend!"
"You?" Qin Ruoxue looked at Luo Chen up and down, expressionless, and said calmly,
"Are you worthy? Get out!" Luo Chen: "..."
"Holy shit, woman, why are you talking to my eldest brother? It's your blessing that my eldest brother likes you!" A younger brother next to Luo Chen rolled up his sleeves unhappily, exposing the muscles of his arms.
"Stop beeping and come to my brother quickly!"
"Brother Chen, Brother Chen..." Lin Xuemei was worried about something happening, so she hurriedly squeezed in from the crowd, holding a stack of red banknotes in her hand, and stuffed it into Luo Chen's hand: "Brother Chen, this girl is my friend , I have also paid the management fee. According to the rules set by Brother Ming, no trouble can be caused in the place where the management fee has been paid, right?"
"Making trouble?" Luo Chen put the money into his pocket: "Mrs. Boss, I'm not making trouble. What am I? I'm courting, understand? Have you seen me making trouble? Do you still need to teach me the rules of the world? I?"
"Brother Chen, no, that's not what I meant... Even if you are courting someone, you have to find someone who has no owner. She, she is already married and has a boyfriend!"
"Oh? Who is it?" At this time, Luo Chen glanced at Liang Haicong and Ye Wentian. He directly passed Liang Haicong, stared at Ye Wentian coldly, took out a machete from his body and held it in his hand.
"Uh-huh!"
"Uh-huh!"
"Whoa!" As he drew the knife, more than thirty people behind him also drew machetes one after another from their waists. In the tavern, the light of the sword flashed, and it was full of Jianghu atmosphere.
Luo Chen smiled crookedly, with a somewhat intimidating, coercive, and fierce look: "Kid, I'll only ask once, is it you? Are you her boyfriend?"
