Chapter 36 Asking What Is the Situation in the World The Inescapable Thing
Left as a child and had a life of his own
Fresh songs, fresh thoughts
When willfulness and impulsiveness are uncontrollable
I forgot that there were still such songs
The resident brother of the bar is singing "It's Dark", and the originally clear female voice is replaced by a deep male voice, the voice is depressed and bitter, and there is a different taste.
"Will it be more bitter to leave the life of a child?" Xin Yi was deeply immersed in the song.
And Gu Jingnian was immersed in Xin Yi's sad eyes.
A girl's first kiss.
But I forgot.
There is an urge in my heart to kiss the sweetness of the girl in front of me again.
But the girl probably thinks she's drunk again.
Growing up in the rules that my father set for himself. Never more than a point. Even if you drink too much wine during the meal, you have to say what you need to say according to your own settings, and when you go home exhausted, you fall asleep.
I once met a woman who threw herself into her arms after drinking, but I seemed to politely invite the other person out of the room.
"Kiss someone else?active?" is probably the first time that such a drunken disqualification is probably the first time.
Gu Jingnian frowned. He didn't like the special cases that happened to Xin Yi. I also don't like Xin Yi always breaking his expectations.
More often than not, Gu Jingnian's selection of women is like completing a job. It will be for the needs of work, for the needs of socializing, or for its own needs.
If there must be a wife in the future. It must be a woman who matches in every way. She will be a decent mother to her children and a daughter-in-law to show off by her father. But it won't be the woman you love the most.
Love?
Growing up, he never experienced the love his father gave him, his father never smiled happily at him, and even the tone of his speech was cold. It was as if it were not a son, but an enemy who had taken the life of his wife. One year, my father got drunk on his mother's death day, pointed at the little Gu Jingnian and scolded: If it weren't for you, your mother wouldn't have died.
But that day was also Gu Jingnian's birthday. After living for 30 years, my father never said happy birthday to himself.
Gu Jingnian often thinks that he is probably a victim of his parents' love. So he doesn't like to talk about love, and he doesn't like to be held back by love.
If life loses color without love, then such love is too painful for him to bear.
What about Xin Yi? Is that love?
Gu Jingnian shook his head self-deprecatingly. She should just be a whim of her own, not worth mentioning.
But she is indeed a lovely woman.
"Let's go. I'll take you for a drink."
"Aren't we already drinking?"
"It's not the same. β
I don't know if it was because I drank wine, Xin Yi actually saw Gu Jingnian smiling gently at him.
It turns out that you look good when you smile, too.
A warm hand clasped Xin Yi's wrist. Naturally, he took Xin Yi into his arms.
The broad shoulders wrapped around the petite girl and led her to the bar of the bar.
Colourful liquors fill the wine cabinet. The bartender was holding a silver shaker and rocking it up and down. "Listen to the bang", accompanied by the low and casual singing voice of the station, as if beating the beat, one by one, slapped people's hearts, and the mood got better for no reason.
"Two cups of Long Island Iced Tea. β
"Okay. If it is a lady's drink, it is recommended to have a lighter taste. β
It's still the kind-hearted waiter just now, I'm afraid that Xin Yi is coming to the bar for the first time, and I'm afraid that the girl will drink too much.
"I'm a good drinker. Don't look down on me. Xin Yi smiled sweetly at him.
The waiter shrugged helplessly, and it seemed that he was meddling again.
"Is this wine? It's so sweet. "I took a big sip in the orange straw, it was cold, sweet and sour, it was delicious.
When he saw this cup of transparent drink like black tea being served, Xin Yi felt that it was probably not a strong drink. Sure enough, the taste was refreshing, and I was a little thirsty after drinking vodka. At this moment, as soon as you take the long island iced tea, the cold touch is particularly thirst-quenching.
"What do you call it?" the little girl curiously picked up the long transparent cup and playfully picked up the straw and poked at the ice cubes inside.
"Long Island Iced Tea. Gu Jingnian replied lazily, and in the dim light, these cute little movements of the girl fell into his eyes.
"You see its name is iced tea, and you lie to me about what kind of wine it is. The small mouth pouted softly, as if to whisper a complaint that the man in front of him was underestimating him.
"Then you go ahead. β
Under Gu Jingnian's gaze, Xin Yi poured iced tea into his stomach.
"It's so cool!!" A cup of belly, Xin Yi hiccuped with satisfaction.
"Do you still want it?" Gu Jingnian's eyes were cunning.
"Of course, I haven't had enough of it. β
"Black Russia. β
When a twig smokes from the rim of a wine glass, the black brown color gradually settles at the bottom of the glass.
Xin Yi took a sip.
"There's caramel in it?" Like a doll stealing candy, Xin Yi's eyes flashed with happiness and sweetness.
Soon another cup was served.
"Although these wines are not strong, they taste so good, just like desserts. Xin Yi was very satisfied with the wine introduced by Gu Jingnian.
"You say these wines are like desserts?"
"Yes, yes, yes. I like sugar the most, the medicine is so bitter, I don't like it. β
"Cocktails are a lot like desserts. It's layered and tasteful. The flavor slowly thickens and the alcohol gets higher and higher. It's like eating dessert one by one. We're getting higher alcohol now. Can you?"
"Who said I can't, serve wine. β
βBluebury Teaβ
"You're going to invite me to tea again?" Xin Yi pouted, a little unhappy.
"You try. β
"This cup is lukewarm. Cheers. β
"Okay, cheers. β
Unconsciously, Xin Yi's head was also a little groggy, and he barely managed to keep his face from falling on the bar with his hands on his chin. Xin Yi is known as a thousand cups and is not drunk. Drinking liquor is not a problem. But drinking these fluffy cocktails today is like a punch on cotton.
"Do you still want it?" the warm voice sounded in his ears.
"I can. "Losers don't lose, they have never lost when they drink, pinched their chins, Xin Yi raised his head again, and he was bound to fight Gu Jingnian for another three hundred rounds.
"Let's go back to the vodka we just had. A glass of Absolut Vodka. β
"One glass isn't enough, I want a dozen. β
"Yes. Gu Jingnian nodded.
The wine is still the same as before, but the taste is not the same as before. The warm wine flowed into his mouth, his tongue was crispy and soft, his head was dizzy, and the corners of his mouth kept rising. It seems that even the depressed mood has been released.
"Delicious. Xin Yi squinted and looked at Gu Jingnian. With sharp cheeks, dark black eyes, and a straight nose, his hand restlessly rested on Gu Jingnian's neck, slowly bringing his face closer to him.
The handsome face was close at hand, and the warm breath slapped Xin Yi's face ambiguously, and after three seconds of staring at each other, Xin Yi blinked and winked: "You are so good-looking." β
"What else?" Gu Jingnian looked at the presumptuousness of the girl in front of him, but he didn't mean to push it away, he hadn't seen this girl drink too much and get out of control.
"You drank too much and kissed me, today I want revenge. β
