A few tea leaves floated slowly on it.

Bai Rouying didn't speak, just lifted the teacup and took a sip gently, covering her face through the mist.

The president of the martial arts association on the side only learned about the relatively shallow things in this matter, and after listening to Old Man Ji's words at this moment, he was confused.

"What's going on? Why do you say that all of a sudden? ”

Old Man Ji snorted coldly, and turned his head to look at his old friend: "I really didn't expect that I had been fighting in the designer circle for so many years, and I had come all the way to this point. ”

He didn't shy away from talking about his battles back then.

Actually, there is no need to shy away from it.

After all, there were a lot of big bulls in the designer circle of that era, and how could it be good to stand out among these big bulls and establish such a force?

Bai Rouying only pretended not to hear it.

The president of the martial arts association understood, and it was precisely because he understood that he was even more surprised: "You mean you are being used?" No, it's your granddaughter who is being taken advantage of? ”

He thought for a moment and shook his head, feeling that Ji Lanyan didn't seem to have any use value, if this person really wanted to use it, he was afraid that what he also wanted to use was the background behind Ji Lanyan.

Isn't that Ji He's old man?

After thinking about it like this, Jin Di, the president of the Martial Arts Association, almost couldn't close his mouth: "There are still people who dare to take advantage of you?" It's too long! ”

This old man is decisive, he has been old in recent years, and he looks stubborn, as if his attack power is not so strong, but in fact he is a dormant poisonous snake.

If it really targets anyone, it will be a thunderous blow.

"Looking at you like this, you should know about this?"

Old Man Ji He didn't pay attention to the president of the Martial Arts Association, and instead looked at Bai Rouying, seeing Bai Rouying holding a teacup, looking leisurely and calm, and squinted his eyes dangerously again.

Bai Rouying was still very calm, she put down the teacup, and the smile on her face was very gentle: "I also asked Yun Ruo to help me investigate not long ago, and I always thought that it was your intention to let Miss Ji join the design of Chenfeng Construction this time." ”

If it weren't for this investigation, Bai Rouying really didn't know that Secretary Song, who didn't seem to have much intersection with her, actually harbored such malice towards herself.

"I see what you mean." Ji and the old man stood up and put on the clothes on the back of the chair, his face was not very good-looking, "Although I am short-sighted, and I have grown older in recent years, I am not stupid enough to be a gunman for others, since this matter is between you and my granddaughter, then don't worry, I will not interfere." ”

"But the others ......" his voice sank suddenly, and a very spicy look flashed quickly in his eyes, "If you dare to hit me on the head, you should pay some price!" ”

What Bai Rouying wanted to hear was that Old Man Ji would not interfere in the matter between herself and Ji Lanyan, and she was already very satisfied after getting Old Man Ji's previous words.

As for what Old Man Ji will do in the future, how to clean up that Song Ning secretary, Bai Rouying really doesn't care too much.

Even if Old Man Ji didn't make a move, Bai Rouying wouldn't let her go like this.

After all, she is not the kind of cat or dog that anyone can step on, if she really lets this matter pass like this, I'm afraid that she will reach the point where anyone can come up and step on it in the future.

……

When the meeting ended, it was already late at night, and after sending Ji He and the old man and the president of the martial arts association away, Bai Rouying and Yun Ruo stood at the gate of the teahouse, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to do for a long time.

After a while, Yun Ruo spoke first.

"I haven't been back to the imperial capital for so many years, you shouldn't be familiar with it, so I'll take you around."

Bai Rouying was stunned.

"Where else is there to go at this late hour?"

Even in a city that never sleeps like the imperial capital, at this point, many shops are almost closed.

Yun Ruo sneered: "Of course there are places to visit, but it depends on where you want to go shopping." ”

Before Bai Rouying could understand the meaning of her words, she saw Yun Ruo wave her hand and take the lead in the dimly lit street.

Bai Rouying hesitated for a while, but could only slowly follow me up.

Not long after walking, the two men stopped in front of a dimly lit, secluded alley, the entrance of which was facing the door of a bar.

The three big characters "Blue Star Sea" above the door of the bar are constantly flashing with 7 colors of light, which looks particularly charming and dazzling.

"This bar opened in the year you left, and it's the hottest bar in the neighborhood." After a little introduction, Yun Ruo raised his feet and prepared to walk into the alley.

Bai Rouying hurriedly reached out and grabbed her.

"Wait a minute."

Yun Ruo turned his head and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What's wrong?" Still have questions? ”

Bai Rouying looked at Yun Ruo's calm face, her expression was a little complicated: "All these years...... You seem to have changed a lot? ”

In the past, Yun Ruo was restricted by the Cloud Gate, and there was almost no way to show her personality, and when Bai Rouying knew her, she was so indifferent and demure.

doesn't talk much, it doesn't seem to be easy to get along with, but after contact, you will find that she has a lot of shining points - justice and affection.

It's just that too much happened later.

Yun Ruo's right hand put on the back of Bai Rouying's hand, pulled Bai Rouying's hand away from his arm, and laughed softly: "I thought you wanted to say something, it turned out to be this." ”

She looked up at the dark sky, just looked at it for a while, and then blinked, and could feel the dryness and soreness in the corners of her eyes.

Bai Rouying didn't understand what was beautiful in the sky, and raised her head along with Yun Ruo's movements.

I could only see the dark night, and there seemed to be dark clouds slowly gathering and shrouding the sky, barely catching half of the stars, and not seeing the slightest brightness.

She's confused.

Suddenly, I heard the girl next to her speak slowly, the voice was obviously very soft, but it seemed to be very heavy, so light that it was almost inaudible, and it seemed to fall into the bottom of my heart.

"People always have to change, and they always have to come out of the past, not only me, Xiaoying, you should also be the same."

The soundproofing of the Aquamarine Bar is really good.

When Bai Rouying and Yun Ruo were outside, they could hardly hear a sound, but as soon as the door was pushed open, they heard deafening music coming from inside.

Colourful lights flickered incessantly, red and green intertwined on people's faces, and directly opposite was the dance floor of the bar, where men and women of all ages constantly writhed their waists in the middle of the dance floor.

The scene in the bar looked really confused, and Bai Rouyingjiao suddenly thought that she had entered the Pansi Cave for a moment.

"This ......"

The sound of the bar was too loud, and Yun Ruo next to him only saw Bai Rouying's mouth move, but he didn't hear what she said clearly.

I can only ask loudly: "What you just said was louder, I didn't hear clearly!" ”

Bai Rouying hurriedly pulled the clouds, and walked towards the other side of the dance floor, avoiding the noisy music as much as possible, and found a quiet corner where the music was quiet, and it was still quiet for the entire noisy bar.

The other tables in the corner have also been made by a lot of people, and there are already bartenders who have come over and started selling drinks.

Bai Rouying ordered a bottle of wine at random, and after pouring a glass for Yun Ruo and herself, she raised the glass and touched her gently: "How did you find here?" Does business look good here? ”

Thinking of the situation when he came here unintentionally, Yun Ruo couldn't help but laugh.

"You may not believe it, but I passed by by by accident, and then I was dragged in by three little hooligans who came out of the bar." She pinched her chin, a smile between her eyebrows, "They insisted on inviting me in for a drink." ”

Even if Yun Ruo didn't say it, Bai Rouying could already guess the final tragic situation of the three little rascals.

She couldn't help but smile softly.

"Isn't it boring for two people to drink with beautiful women?"

Suddenly, a flirtatious voice interjected from the side.

Bai Rouying and Yun Ruoqi turned their heads, and saw a young man with a powdery face, a greasy appearance, and a flamboyant tongue when he spoke, standing next to them with a glass of wine.

He held his arm with one hand, and his right foot was still shaking, as if he thought this posture was handsome.

"Not boring." Bai Rouying smiled slightly, and directly refused mercilessly.

As Bai Rouying's words fell, there was a burst of laughter from the side.

It was from a table not far away, where sat a group of young men and women with dyed hair who looked like a group of delinquent teenagers.

This group of young people was looking in the direction of Bai Rouying, their eyes were full of banter, and because they were not far away, Bai Rouying could even clearly see that there were several men and women who were still talking and laughing while looking at this side.

Obviously, Bai Rouying and the man she had just accosted her with were used as talking points and jokes.

Bai Rouying narrowed her eyes slightly, and her expression gradually turned cold.

This is not uncommon.

Use the passers-by in the bar as a joke or a tool for betting.

It's just that Bai Rouying didn't expect that one day she would become the center of other people's bets.

"If nothing happens, don't let trouble lead us." Bai Rouying said coldly.

The man was rejected directly, and seemed to be a little faceless, his face was blue and white for a while, and he turned his head to look at the group of people who were roaring just now.

One of the youths whistled at him.

The man's face turned red again.

He had come to the bar with a few friends who had been drinking and meat, and had just lost while playing dice, and was asked to come over and talk to the prettiest girl at the corner table.

As a result, I fell in love with Bai Rouying and Yun Ruo.

The man is good-looking, the family conditions are also good, he looks like a dog when he dresses up, and he looks like he has a little open temperament, and he is basically invincible to talk to people in the bar.

Today, it was ruthlessly rejected by Bai Rouying, and it was really the first time.

"I said beauty, everyone is here to play, so there's no need to deliberately pretend to be reserved, right?"

The smile on his face, which was originally kind, had gradually turned to sarcasm and contempt.

This kind of expression and smile, Bai Rouying has seen a lot.

Racial discrimination in the circle of foreign designers is particularly serious, and gender discrimination is also very serious.

Bai Rouying has suffered a lot of discrimination because of her skin color and gender, even though he is a close disciple of Keynes's mentor, but when he first entered the circle of foreign designers, he was also very resistant.

Bai Rouying's deep memory is that at that time, there was a young designer abroad who had become famous and pursued her, and after being rejected by Bai Rouying, the young designer showed such a look and said something very ugly.
