Chapter 1: The First Encounter at the Bar

Next Chapter

It's already the fifth cup.

Xiao Luo stared at the ever-increasing clear liquid in the wine glass, and his breath couldn't stop with his tilted wrist.

She had never drunk like this before, and the only thing she remembered was the two bottles of beer she drank at the dinner after graduating from high school.

What happened next? vomited so much that she was left in her room and scolded by her mother for two hours.

Thinking of this, Xiao Luo's palms began to sweat, and he pulled the corners of the clothes of the man next to him.

The man turned around, the flattering smile on his face immediately switched to impatience, Xu is expression on Xiao Luo's face was too pitiful, he still asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"Can I ......" Xiao Luo's eyes glanced at the wine glass that had been poured full, and he spit out, "Can I not drink it?" ”

The man glared at her and before she could speak, the dignified middle-aged man over there had already handed over the wine glass.

"Come, Miss Lin, let's have another drink."

Xiao Luo took the glass of wine under the man's warning eyes, and as soon as his lips touched the rim of the glass, the feeling of nausea rushed from his stomach to his throat.

She put her glass on the table, said sorry, and stumbled to the bathroom.

When he turned the corner, he bumped into a person head-on, and the person was quite strong, so Xiao Luo covered his head and screamed in pain, and even forgot to say sorry and ran into the bathroom in front of him.

Yi Zeran rubbed his injured shoulder, squinted his eyes and looked at the prompt of the bathroom in front of him - the men's bathroom.

There was still a bad smell of alcohol left on the end of his nose, and his thick eyebrows wrinkled inadvertently, he had always hated alcoholics, especially female alcoholics who mixed in bars in the middle of the night.

He brushed the front of his shirt in disgust, and only moved forward until the smell of alcohol on the tip of his nose had completely dissipated.

The door of the bathroom was not closed, the flushing sound was very loud, and when passing by, Yi Zeran couldn't help but glance sideways, and the woman shrank in the corner by the door, holding her stomach with both hands, a small mass like a stray animal left on the street.

Xu noticed his gaze, and the woman raised her head suddenly.

Looking at each other, Yi Zeran's heart trembled fiercely.

He has always liked to see and see people, and the eyes of simple-minded people are also pure and transparent, or how to say that the eyes are the windows of the soul.

His eyes were as clear as washed water, and as black as ink, like a clear spring in the night, with ripples blown away by the wind, and bright and broken stars.

His legs were as heavy as lead, and he stood in the doorway for a long time looking at the cowering woman inside—black heels about three inches, a standardized black and white skirt, medium-length hair, and light makeup.

It's a very ordinary professional woman, but because of that childish face, it becomes different, just like a child who has mistakenly worn adult clothes when he is discovered.

A pair of dark eyes staring at you tightly, even if you don't speak, it makes people feel some pity for no reason.

The ghost made a fool of himself, Yi Zeran raised his steps and walked to the bathroom, and when his palm touched the cold door, a noisy sound came from behind him.

It was the person who pulled him into the bar with a dead face - Ye Chen.

"I said you can't leave? How long have I been waiting downstairs? Ye Chen complained as he walked to him, and only when he put his arm on his shoulder did he see the woman squatting in the bathroom.

Yo, it's still a delicate little sister!

Ye Chen smiled, the thief's eyes turned back and forth on the two of them, and finally patted Yi Zeran on the shoulder, and before he could say the joke, the man turned around and left with a wooden face.

"Open a room upstairs and send her over."

After speaking, he walked straight to the door of the bar regardless of Ye Chen's howl.

When he pushed the door, his hands were sweaty, and the sticky feeling made him feel a lot of irritability, and he closed his eyes slightly, and another pair of eyes suddenly appeared in his mind, which were also black and white eyes, and there seemed to be water flowing between the pupils.

Shaking his head fiercely, he pursed his lips and fled the bar.

You shouldn't have come out tonight, especially not in this bar.

- Because once something has begun, it is difficult to end it.

*

Xiao Luo has always been very sober, even if he vomited in the dark because he was too drunk to drink, he could still calmly analyze and think about the people and things around him.

So before Ye Chen walked into the bathroom with a smile that turned everyone upside down, she had already stood up with her stomach covered.

"The ......"

Ye Chen raised his eyes and raised his hand to point upstairs.

Xu was wronged tonight, Xiao Luo looked at the man who was smiling before meeting, and the anger in his heart jumped up, "Get out of the way!" ”

With a fierce tone, Ye Chen was stunned when he heard this, but after reacting, he gave way very gentlemanly.

Walking all the way to the root of the wall, Xiao Luo deliberately glanced at the place he came from when he passed by the wine area.

The man had already taken off his blazer, propped one arm on the soft leather sofa, and held a wine glass in the other, smiling at the customers next to him.

The hypocritical face made Xiao Luo not want to take a second look, so he simply pushed the door and left.

Probably really drunk to strengthen people's courage, originally afraid of losing their job has been cringe, but now I feel relaxed halfway through.

What are you afraid of, she's young anyway.

When he was sitting on the side of the road resting, the man really called, and he scolded him as usual.

Xiao Luo held his mobile phone and listened silently, but his eyes drifted somewhere.

The location of the bar is a bit out of the way, there are not many cars on the road at this time, most of the shops on the street are closed, and only a few shops that are open 24 hours a day are left to glow sporadically.

The man over there was still scolding, and in the end, he asked Xiao Luo to hurry back when he scolded enough, otherwise what would happen.

Xiao Luo laughed twice, then reached out and hung up the phone.

Before the light of the mobile phone disappeared, Xiao Luo looked down at the time, eleven fifty-six, it is definitely not appropriate to go home now.

I simply found a KFC that was in business, ordered a hot drink, and then sat honestly by the window to stay up for time.

Looking beyond the window of the trimmed flowers and trees, a black Land Rover was parked in the empty parking space, the headlights were still on, and a man in a white shirt could be vaguely seen sitting in the car against the light.

Xiao Luo thought he had seen it wrong, rubbed his eyes, and the man was still sitting motionless in the car.

I don't know if it's an illusion, the man seems to be staring at himself, his eyes focused and sharp.

Xiao Luo involuntarily clenched the cup in his hand, this feeling of being stared at was very bad, a bit like the prey being stared at by a hunter.

The nerves were tense for a long time, and it wasn't until the man drove away that Xiao Luo breathed a sigh of relief, and he had the time to lower his head and swipe his phone.

A piece of news popped up on the screen, and Xiao Luo clicked on it, it was a senior high school student who chose to commit suicide due to unsatisfactory grades and unbearable pressure.

Is it necessary? Xiao Luo sighed and turned off his phone happily.

At the beginning of the junior year, the students in the first class held high the banner of "endless learning" and devoted themselves to the postgraduate entrance examination without hesitation, holding various professional books and reading various video lectures all day long.

And what about her? still runs at home and school, and even feels idle to do a few part-time jobs.

The teachers and friends around her feel sorry for her, what a pity it is that she doesn't continue her studies with such good grades! And she is indeed a material for reading, and her grades have been top-notch since she was a child.

But what's the use of good grades? In the end, they don't all have to devote themselves to the big dye vat of society.

Just look for a job honestly and not end up on the streets when you graduate.

At the beginning of the summer vacation of her junior year, she began to look for job advertisements, submit resumes, and interview every day.

I finally found a job that seemed good, but I met an unreliable boss, and I was pulled out to talk about business within a few days of work.

No, it's yellow again.
