Chapter 49
forty-nine
In the hot pot restaurant, the steaming steam contrasts with the cold wind outside, the entire glass wall is fumigated and blurred, three women sit around a table against the wall, all kinds of dishes are placed on the table It is difficult to even find a gap, there are still a few plates of ingredients to be served on a small shelf on the side of the table, the mandarin duck soup base in the pot is gradually boiling, someone sandwiches the ingredients on the table into the hot soup base one by one, the white beer foam has not disappeared, and the cup with a layer of ice mist is lifted,
"Come, in order to celebrate Qiao Mosheng's safe return, let's have a toast first!"
Yu Yu's grinning face was blocked in the rising steam, which seemed a little unreal, and the two people on the opposite side also raised their glasses with a smile when they heard the sound, for the rebirth of a life, for the continuation of a friendship, and for the germination of a love.
Several people were frozen by the cold beer, but their faces were still smiling after being entangled, and as the aroma of food spread, the three women's conversation boxes also opened,
"What is the outcome of the lawsuit?"
This is the only topic that Qiao Mosheng can think of at the moment that makes him feel concerned, but when he mentioned the lawsuit, Tang Wei's face cried,
"Alas, don't mention it, lose ......"
Qiao Mosheng's brows tightened, and before he could speak, Yu Yu's eyes stood on the other side, and the chopsticks slapped on the plate and made a crisp sound:
"Lost? Why? β
Tang Wei shrugged her shoulders, expressed helplessness, and said:
"We didn't sign any non-compete agreement when we cooperated with Lu Yan, customers have the right to choose merchants, and we don't have the right to restrict, losing the lawsuit is inevitable, I have been mentally prepared, I initially agreed to Gu Ziyan's lawsuit just to let him find some psychological balance, as for the result, hehe......"
In the end, Tang Wei smiled bitterly, saying that she didn't have any hope at all.
What she said is reasonable, others don't understand the law, and they can only follow and get angry, after Yu Yu scolded Lu Yan from the inside out, he turned back to comfort Tang Wei:
"Forget it, let's not worry about that villain, Weiwei, don't care too much, sister has a treat at night, go out for a drink, there is a good saying, get drunk and relieve a thousand sorrows~"
Tang Wei saw that Yu Yu didn't forget to squeeze her eyebrows at herself, and immediately understood, and responded with her mouth, although Qiao Mosheng was reluctant to catch the wine bureau just after getting off the plane, but under the guise of "comfort", she couldn't say no, so she could only bury her head in eating the cooked food that Tang Wei had just fished out on the plate without saying a word.
After eating, Yu Yu pulled Tang Wei and forcibly ran to Qiao Mosheng's house to make a fuss for a while, known as "recuperating", seeing that the time was about the same time as the bar opened, the three of them went downstairs to recruit a taxi and went straight to the destination.
Later, there is no later.
This drinking game was coming to an end, Yu Yu was drunk into a puddle of mud, Tang Wei was also a little delirious, and began to talk nonsense in a daze, Qiao Mosheng, the only one who remained sober, looked at Tang Wei, whose tongue was knotted and did not forget to grin at her, and only wanted to cry without tears.
On the small stage of the bar, the resident singer is saying birthday greetings to a birthday star at a table, and the partners at the same table take this opportunity to start laughing, adding an undeserved noisy atmosphere to the bar. Qiao Mosheng propped his head and looked at Tang Wei in a trance, as if those laughter were blocked outside an invisible window, in just a few months, the same place and the same people, his state of mind was not as good as it was at the beginning, not so much indifferent, but rather self-degenerate, after all, the purpose of leading Tang Wei home was not so pure. The three words of one-night stand, after knowing Tang Wei, gradually disappeared in her mind, those invisible subtle particles, I don't know how long it took, but slowly condensed, and turned into a trace of inexplicable and ambiguous feelings, like wisps of smoke, spreading and drifting.
"What the hell are you... Do you want to ...... with me? Together? β
Qiao Mosheng looked at Tang Wei beside him pouting like a child, lowering his eyes and playing with the wine glass in his hand, he couldn't help but feel funny, and he didn't know if she was talking to the cup or talking to herself, just the moment Qiao Mosheng was distracted, Tang Wei suddenly turned her head to look at her, frowned and stared at her eyes, and said word by word:
"You, that's you! To be or not to be! β
Qiao Mosheng lowered her eyes and glanced at Tang Wei's fingers in front of her eyes, and her lips pursed slightly with a slight movement, although this was Tang Wei's drunken nonsense, and no one might remember it the next day, but she was still afraid that the noise around her would cover up her voice, so she leaned forward with her face, and stopped when the tip of her nose was about to touch the other party, and then asked in a soft and doting voice that she rarely showed in front of outsiders:
"What do you want?"
Because the distance was too close, so close that both of them could feel each other's breath, Tang Wei stared at Qiao Mosheng's eyes for a moment, and then subconsciously moved her gaze to the lips that were close at hand, for about four or five seconds, she blinked with her eyelashes, and then replied obediently:
"To... Together......"
As she said this, she also stretched out the tip of her tongue and licked her lips, as if she was thinking of some terrible delicacy in her head, tempting in front of her, but she didn't dare to get it.
Qiao Mosheng was amused by her series of expressions and movements, where is this a woman who is about to run for three, in front of her, it is clearly a little girl who secretly drank the wine that her father hid in the high cabinet, and then drunk and sat on the ground with a wine bottle to ask for candy.
After sighing helplessly, Qiao Mosheng prepared to get up,
"Well, it's time to go home."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to help the other party up, but at this time, Tang Wei's strength increased, and with a strain of his arm, he pressed Qiao Mosheng, who had already stood up, back to his seat.
"Good fart! You haven't answered me yet! β
Qiao Mosheng thought to himself that he was fortunate to be sitting on a sofa chair, if he changed to a hard chair, maybe his tailbone would be bruised.
"I'll talk about this when you're sober, obedient."
Qiao Mosheng patiently took her hand and tried to pull her up again, but what reason could there be with a drunk person, this time Tang Wei directly shook her off, clasped her arms with both hands, raised her head, and said:
"If you don't go, I won't leave if you don't answer me, hum!"
This time, Qiao Mosheng felt a little headache, Yu Yu's mud was easy to solve, and it was OK to carry it back like a dead pig, I'm afraid that now Tang Wei is drunk and doesn't sleep and messes around, which makes people upset Cheng DΓΉ is second only to the bear child......
"I... Still thinking about it......"
Hesitating, Qiao Mosheng spit out a few words,
"Don't think about it, just be together!"
People who drink too much are quite unreasonable, and their attitudes have hardened.
ββ¦β¦ Tang Wei ......"
Qiao Mosheng's embarrassment did not convey to Tang Wei,
"You just don't like me when you're not with me, but Qiao Mosheng, do you really have no feelings for me at all?"
Tang Wei tilted her head and looked straight at Qiao Mosheng's eyes, which made her, who had always been unfazed, a little flustered.
"Not ......"
Of course, she also knows the feelings in her heart, but she has never been able to step through the hurdle in her heart, and she can't open her mouth, if it weren't for Yu Yuxiang's foreshadowing today, she wouldn't let go of her now if she was killed.
"In that case, is it that hard to be with me? I'm Tang Wei... Growing up so big, it's the first time I really like someone, no one is a skinless person, and it's okay to confess once or twice...... But you're always dragging on to me, are you embarrassed? β
The more Tang Wei spoke, the more aggrieved she became, and finally tears came to her eyes, Qiao Mosheng saw that she didn't want to let the tears flow, and she didn't feel very comfortable, Tang Wei was right, no one in the world is a normal person who has a two-skin face, she can't rely on people's liking for herself to make people cheeky and stick her cold face once or twice, although she didn't want to let herself hurt the other party, but her avoidance behavior is not another kind of injury......
Qiao Mosheng didn't rush to get up this time, but looked at Tang Wei seriously, stared at him carefully for a long time before he breathed a sigh of relief as if he had given up something, and smiled softly:
"I see, let's go home."
Tang Wei, who was on the rise, didn't react to what she meant for a while, and replied thoughtlessly:
"I said you won't leave if you don't agree."
Qiao Mosheng shook his head with a smile, and patiently continued to go around the bend with her:
"That's why I said I'm going home."
Tang Wei frowned and fiddled with the wine glass in front of her, and suddenly reacted, her eyes widened and she looked at the person who was smiling at her with an incredible expression.
"You, you, you... Agreed? Didn't you bluff me? β
"Hmm."
"No, no, if you drink too much to me, and you regret it tomorrow, you have to write it to me and sign it again, so that it can count ......"
Tang Wei muttered while swaying and dragging her bag, took out a pen and paper and handed it to Qiao Mosheng,
"Write on and write, this is a document, it is a certificate, it must not be less, it must not be ......"
Qiao Mosheng bent the corners of his mouth and took the things she handed over, and after thinking for a while, he buried his head in brushing a few strokes and wrote down a line of words, and after writing, he glanced back and forth a few times, and then raised his head with satisfaction, who knew that when he turned his head, he saw Tang Wei's sleeping face lying beside him with a smile on his lips, and estimated that she wanted to watch Qiao Mosheng finish writing the "note", but she didn't expect the effect of alcohol and the relieved ease that made her fall asleep directly as soon as she closed her eyes, and I don't know if she would be like now, looking at Qiao Mosheng in her dream, smiling brightly......
