24 Good for nothing
When he was in college, Ouyang Lai used to like a senior who was excellent in character and learning.
At that time, she had already begun to mingle with her senior sister in the social circle, failed in her subjects, and rarely stayed in the dormitory.
During that time, she almost forgot her original intention of desperately being admitted to this first-class university in the country, and she had begun to forget her original world.
Until the senior said to her, "Don't be a good-for-nothing person." β
Ouyang Lai was stimulated and replied: "If I meet someone who can make me useless, it will be considered good luck." β
Later, the senior ignored her anymore, and she didn't pay attention to the senior.
After so many years, only now, at this moment, did she realize the meaning of the phrase "don't be a good-for-nothing person".
She, Ouyang Lai, is useless except for her stubborn and unyielding temperament.
She even looked at the woman named Master Li with some envy, fantasizing about how cool it would be if she was also an out-and-out Bai Fumei, and she would humiliate a girl who worshiped money and vanity in front of her like this!
Ouyang Lai's self-esteem was trampled on, and she began to drink, glass after glass.
She didn't talk much, but she began to stand up with a swaying posture, and clinked glasses with everyone present like Master Li did.
It wasn't until she came to the man next to Master Li with the cup that she stopped, glanced at Master Li with her eyes, and smiled coquettishly: "Mr. Jiang, you don't love your fiancΓ©e at all, do you?" β
Ouyang Lai is fighting back.
The man's face was gloomy, and he didn't even look at her.
However, Master Li's face couldn't hold back, and he stood up straight: "Are you drunk!" β
Ouyang Lai's cheeks were a little red, pretending to be drunk, and leaned in: "Still with your beauty, bewitching, noble and elegant, what should you do if the man around you doesn't love you?" Not a pathetic creature yet?"
After speaking, without waiting for Master Li to attack, Ouyang Lai walked away with her chin raised, she returned to her seat and put down her wine glass.
Peng Ju, who was in the middle of wine, was overjoyed by Ouyang Lai's decent behavior.
He stretched out his hand to grab Ouyang Lai's waist, but she dodged it perfectly.
She picked up her bag, squinted her eyes and smiled, "I've drunk a little too much, I'm going to go first." β
Peng Ju seemed to be unsatisfied: "Wait a little longer, wait for us to go together." β
As he spoke, he got up and grabbed Ouyang Lai's arm and pulled him closer.
Ouyang Lai shook off his hand in disgust, but this action angered the majestic middle-aged man in front of her.
He looked at her lightly and spat out a few words: "I don't know how to lift." β
And then I didn't care, let her leave the table.
This is also a middle-aged man with such an identity, who will never be nostalgic for the prey that he can't get, but will only scoff at it, telling her that it is your sadness not to be pampered, but as everyone knows, their existence is the sadness of the whole world.
Ouyang Lai came out and found that the stars were already full of the night sky, and she wanted to take a walk along the riverside.
So she deliberately avoided the main road and walked slowly along a walking path next to the river.
I don't know what's wrong, tears suddenly flow all over that stubborn face.
She cried as she walked, in this no-man's land, unbridledly venting the depression in her heart.
She simply squatted down and shouted at the river in the distance: "Ouyang Lai! You really are a good-for-nothing person! β
"Who said that?"
The street lights in front and behind were dim, and a male voice suddenly came from the uninhabited walking path.
The voice was a little soft, light like a phantomous sound in a hallucination.
Ouyang Lai hugged her knees and didn't stand up for the first time, she was a little afraid, after all, it was dark, and it was by the river, and it was deserted before and after.
She closed her eyes and sobbed a few times before slowly raising her head.
There was no one in front.
There was no one on either side either.
.........
Just then, she heard footsteps, right behind her......
Ouyang Lai stood up suddenly, didn't care about the tears on his face, and pulled his legs and prepared to leave.
Who knows, but was dragged by the person behind him.
Ouyang Lai's heart was raised in his throat, what if this was a bad person.....
Her voice trembled, and she pretended to be calm and said, "No matter what you have to do, my friend is nearby, and I will come as soon as I shout..."
"I'm still scared..."
The voice behind him muttered a few words.
Ouyang Lai suddenly felt familiar, and turned to look at him: "Chen Qiaomu? β
The man behind him was a little gentle under the rendering of the moonlight, especially when he smiled lightly: "Well, it's me." β
Ouyang Lai was frightened, and Fang Cai's sadness had not yet been exhausted, and now he turned into anger and shook off his arm: "Are you sick!" Isn't it scary and fun? β
Chen Qiaomu looked at her lightly and shallowly.
And in his mind, he was playing over and over again, Ouyang Lai who he saw outside the box door just now.
A Ouyang Lai who is neither humble nor arrogant, and finally begins to sober up...
He was a little happy.
If it weren't for a chance encounter, he wouldn't have followed.....
Ouyang Lai saw the corner of his lips smiling, wiped the tears on his face, and said angrily: "Every time I see you, you are not the same, one moment your face is black like something, and the next moment you are smiling.... Is it funny to see me like this? β
Chen Qiaomu thought for a while and said, "The man I met downstairs in your house last time..... His name is Zhan Hao, he's a bar owner, your neighbor, not your boyfriend..."
Ouyang Lai frowned: "You investigate him?" β
Chen Qiaomu was noncommittal: "Do you want to go with me now?" β
Ouyang Lai rubbed his eyes: "Where are you going?" β
Chen Qiaomu raised one side of his lips and smiled lightly: "Go and bully the person who bullied you just now." β
.....................
In this way, Ouyang Lai's ghost was dragged by the arm of the arbor, stepped on the path by the river, and returned the same way.
Two people are one in front of one behind the other, one tall and one short.
Overlapping time and space, like on a rainy night, the uncle is in front, and the children are behind....
Ouyang Lai was suddenly in a trance, and then quickly came back to his senses.
..........
At this moment, the two of them were standing at the door of the box full of people.
Qiao Mu pushed open the door alone, and everyone in the box was chatting hotly, and no one noticed it at all.
It wasn't until Qiao Mu pulled Ouyang Lai to stand in front of the wine table that no one noticed them.
First, Peng Ju saw Ouyang Lai: "Why are you back again?" β
Then Master Li saw the man next to Ouyang Lai: "Who are you?" This is a private banquet, you can't break in at will, please go out! β
Seeing that the two of them were unmoved, Master Li simply got up and yelled at Ouyang Lai, "What are you doing in a daze? Get rid of the people you brought with you! β
Ouyang Lai bit his lip and said to Qiao Mu in a low voice: "Didn't you say that you want to bully people? β
Qiao Mu smiled evilly again, and said to Master Li: "I see, the person who wants to go out is you..."
He looked around the box again: "And you." β
Everyone was shocked, but only the man named Jiang Nan had no other face and was calm.
And Peng Ju is the most unstable person, someone on his territory doesn't take himself seriously, how can he, the leader, mix in the future?
So he stood up and shouted to the waiter in a deep voice: "Go and call you Manager Lu, I want to ask, what is going on with these strange people?" β
After finishing speaking, he glanced at Ouyang Lai coldly again, completely losing his enthusiasm half an hour ago.
After a while, Manager Lu of the hotel arrived, and as soon as he entered the door, he stood in place and bowed to Qiao Mu: "Mr. Chen? How did you get here? β
At this time, the people in the box were quieter again.
Master Li on the side continued to sneer and mock: "We are all here President, Mr. Li, Mr. Wang, Mr. Liu, Mr. Chen, what's so strange...."
Manager Lu looked up with an embarrassed face, looked at Peng Ju and said, "This, this is our boss..... Big boss...."
