Chapter II
"No. 171 Changming Lane, there is a tavern? Ah Zhan, did you eat French fries and fried fish abroad and eat your brain, do you think you can find out, I won't be able to find out? After Qiao Qingze said this, Song Zhan reacted, he was really concerned and messed up.
Among the three of them, it seems that Qiao Qingze is the most out-of-the-box and unconventional, but he is also the smartest, he sees many things, understands everything, knows everything, but doesn't say anything. But the more this is the case, the more worried he is, the ancients said that wisdom would be hurt, it was not unreasonable.
So, "Why would you jump into that fire pit when you know it's not a safe place?" "Even if you know that Qiao Qingze may not listen to him, you always have to try, what if?
Qiao Qingze's reaction to Song Zhan's words that he knew was useless and finally said it was to open the car door, get in the car, start the car, and leave Song Zhan and his car far behind, not even bothering to say a word.
Song Zhan started the car and followed Qiao Qingze, although he was a little powerless for Qiao Qingze like this, he also felt a trace of warmth in his cold body. No matter what the final result of him and Shu Yun is, at least Aze and Ayu will always support him behind his back, and that's enough!
Changming Lane, in fact, this is not the name of this place, the original name of this place is Ning'an Lane, it is said that it was once a feudal dynasty, the residence of an emperor before ascending the throne, after the emperor ascended the throne, he thanked the people here for their help, and changed his name to Ning'an Lane, which is to hope that the breath of the Son of Heaven will protect the life of the people here in peace and tranquility.
But now, the name Ning'an Lane is gradually forgotten, and it is more known as Changming Lane or Sin Lane, which contains all the dark side of the city, the three religions and nine streams, the lights are bright, the paper is drunk and gold, and there are drunken dreams and deaths.
Qiao Qingze and Song Zhan had heard of such a place more or less, but with their identity, it was impossible to set foot in this place, and tonight was an exception.
Qiao Qingze also found it very interesting, Shu Yun was inconspicuous in the company, with ordinary appearance and ordinary ability, and the company's performance appraisal was passed every year, but he stayed in the company for five years. In the past five years, with his position, he has seen Song Zhan only a handful of times, but he has attracted Song Zhan.
Small things that usually seem harmless to humans and animals appear in such places after work. It's not surprising that the white-collar workers in the company always have two faces when they go to work and after work, and it's understandable that they are stressed at work and want to relax. But relax to Changming Lane, then it's fun!
Isn't he worried that he will be put down by someone with a glass of wine and will not be able to leave this place safely, or does he have something to rely on for him to leave safely?
Pushing open a wooden door, accompanied by the crisp wind chimes, Qiao Qingze saw the dim lights inside, soft music, and retro furnishings, which were completely different from the chaos outside, and for a moment made Qiao Qingze think that he had come to some parallel time and space.
"Welcome, what do you want to drink?" A pleasant male voice sounded in Qiao Qingze's ears, Qiao Qingze looked at the person who was slowly walking towards him, and the first thing that caught his eye was that pair of eyes, clear, translucent, pure black pupils, so beautiful! There was also a jade pendant on the chest that gradually increased as the man approached, Qiao Qingze smiled very brightly.
"This must be the boss, my brother and I are here for the first time, I don't know what your store has?"
The person who came looked at Qiao Qingze's eyes, lost his mind for a moment, and said with a chuckle: "I'm just an ordinary tavern here, it's all some gadgets made by myself, it's hard to get into the hall of elegance, I'm afraid it doesn't fit the identity of Mr., Mr. might as well go out to the third one on the left, where it may be more suitable for the two gentlemen." ”
"As the saying goes, whoever comes is a guest, why did this boss push me and my brother out? Are we afraid that we won't be able to pay for the wine? Rest assured, my brother and I are just ordinary guests, just want to come to a new place to change the mood...... "Smell of grass and trees?" Perfume? It's quite comfortable, Qiao Qingze's nose twitched, and he thought to himself.
Qiao Qingze bit the word ordinary, a dark light crossed the man's eyes, and soon, it returned to the previous warmth, "The person who comes is a guest, how can the small shop push out and refuse the guest, the guest is invited." ”
Qiao Qingze sat down in a corner where he could see the situation of the entire store, there was no wine list, no dazzling lights, only behind the counter, on a wall of wine shelves, there were many jade wine jugs, and the carved patterns on them did not seem to be consistent.
"My brother and I came here for the first time, I wonder if the boss has any recommendations?" Qiao Qingze saw that Song Zhan had been staring at a corner without saying a word, sighed in his heart, and continued to talk to the man with a smile.
A pot of wine was brought to Qiao Qingze's face, the wine jug was very small, and it seemed that the part containing the wine seemed to be the size of an adult man's fist, and the wine glass was even smaller. Qiao Qingze is used to drinking red wine, and the first time he saw this kind of wine, there were two obvious words engraved on the wine jug, life.
Qiao Qingze sneered, how could life be told with a glass of wine. This kind of place should not have been imported by Qiao Qingze, but for some reason, maybe it was the warm jade pendant in his chest that gave him a sense of security, Qiao Qingze poured a glass of wine, and the wine was fragrant.
For a moment, Qiao Qingze felt as if he felt the spring flowers and autumn moon, summer cicadas and winter snow from inside, and soon sobered up, and felt that his thoughts were ridiculous. In the mouth, the wine goes down the throat, not spicy at all, but has a feeling like boiled water.
Kindness? This wine? "Why doesn't it smell at all?"
At the same time as Qiao Qingze's words came out, Song Zhan also spoke, "Bitter, bitter and sweet." ”
This is interesting, two glasses of wine poured out of a pot of wine, one is bland and tasteless, and the other is bitter and sweet. Qiao Qingze propped his chin and looked at the boss who was wiping the wine bottle behind the counter, "Boss, your wine is really not ordinary." ”
"There is nothing extraordinary, life is varied, and natural life is full of flavors. Some people's lives are vigorous, and this wine is naturally like strong wine burning their throats, and some people's lives are uneventful, and naturally they have no taste in drinking this wine. It's not about me, it's just the mood of the guests. The boss whispered.
No waves, no one will feel that such a word matches Qiao Qingze, Qiao Qingze's life, not to mention how gorgeous, at least it is colorful. Black folders, red wine, white skin, purple sports cars...... Too many colors make up Qiao Qingze's life, no matter how you look at it, it is colorful, but in Qiao Qingze's heart, it is really boring.
"How can you look at the boss and see a bit of a philosopher's meaning? Don't know what the boss is called? ”
"He Chen."
"Morning? Stars? Or ......"
"The one of the North Star."
"A good name, this Chen refers to the emperor's residence, and the extended meaning is the emperor. It seems that the boss's parents have high hopes for the boss! My name is Qiao Qingze, Qiao is the Qiao of Xiao Qiao, Qing is Qing Qing, I am Qing, Ze is the swamp of Ze. ”
Qiao Qingze's introduction to himself is very strange, there are many explanations for the word Qing, and it is used in a man's name, which refers more to the official position, the meaning of the three princes and nine qing, Ze means the place where water gathers, and there is also a saying of grace. It's obviously a good name, but when it comes out of Qiao Qingze's mouth, it seems to be a dictionary and a random word turned out, which is not worth mentioning.
"Is there anything else Mr. Joe needs?" Euphemistically refused to continue chatting with Qiao Qingze. He Chen didn't seem to be interested in Qiao Qingze at all, and only concentrated on wiping the wine jug in his hand, as if Qiao Qingze was such a handsome guy, in his eyes, he couldn't reach the dead thing of the wine jug. Maybe not likely.
Qiao Qingze saw that people were not willing to talk to him, so he no longer talked to him, but looked at the wine glass in his hand intently, like looking at his beloved. But the smile on the corner of his mouth was full of sarcasm.
Look, most people in this world are so hypocritical, obviously the most ruthless people, but they just make a humble gentleman, how can there be so many gentlemen in this world? After all, they are just hypocrites.
The bell rang at 12 o'clock, and the small shop that was originally in the corner seemed to suddenly become lively, with customers constantly coming in and out, and the guests who came in were very quiet, mostly alone, a pot of wine, relatively silent.
Until a man in a black trench coat pushed open the door and saw the person, Song Zhan waited for a while, and gradually his impatient look turned into surprise, and a pair of eyes were almost glued to the person, and he couldn't pick it off. But the man raised his head to meet Song Zhan's eyes, but there was a moment of panic, and he turned around and walked out.
"Shu Yun, you stop!" Song Zhan turned around and chased after him. Qiao Qingze originally thought that what he saw when he came over was either the domineering president * Little White Rabbit staff, or some kind of teary-eyed scene with tears in his hands, but he was speechless and choked, who knew that it looked like the police were chasing the fugitives.
Qiao Qingze touched his chin and laughed at his own thoughts, Song Zhan is tall and has good skills, and he does look a little like a policeman when he is upright, but Shu Yun? Well, forget it, after all, it's someone that my brother likes, and some things can't be said too thoroughly!
Just as Qiao Qingze took out a card and was about to check out and prepare to catch up and continue to look at the excitement, a bony hand pressed on Qiao Qingze's arm. "Although I don't know the identity of the gentleman who came with Mr. Qiao, I don't think it's an ordinary person. So Shu Yun is a person, it is better to persuade the two of them to have less contact. ”
Qiao Qingze looked at the hand on his blue suit, and his first feeling was, this hand is so beautiful! Qiao Qingze's father likes to collect antiques, and often whispers in Qiao Qingze's ear about a certain antique porcelain, how delicate the pattern is, how delicate the enamel is, but in Qiao Qingze's opinion, those things are far less beautiful than the hands of the person in front of him.
Then I heard what He Chen said, because of the messy thoughts just now, Qiao Qingze's answer was a little late, but he still followed the answer in his heart very much, "That's the person my brother has a crush on, rounding it off, it's his insider, how can you stay away from such a relationship?" Well? ”
