Chapter 39: Late Night Tavern
"What? It's almost 12 o'clock, and the second brother hasn't come home yet?! Grandma Jiyu walked into Kong Fanxing's bedroom with worried eyes, and said with both hands that the second child hadn't come home yet, Kong Fanxing couldn't help but be stunned.
The Confucius Institute has access control regulations, and my father goes out to the company in the middle of the night, and the second brother does not return home in the middle of the night.
"Big brother is coming home, right?"
"Well, Chin Si will be back from work. He just went home and didn't talk to his grandfather, and stayed in his own room. "Who knows what it's doing. The old man said worriedly.
"I'll call my second brother and ask if he's still in the companyβ"
"It's unlikely you're still in the company at this late hour, right?"
"Maybe, didn't Dad go to the company just now? When I get home...... Grandma Jiyu didn't see Dad go out? β
The corners of the old man's mouth moved, when did the nephew go out?
Kong Fanxing slowly got up and dialed the second brother's phone, and as soon as the phone was connected, there was a noisy noise.
"Second brotherβ"
Kong Qinchen, who was alone in the tavern drinking and watching the football game, deliberately turned on the speakerphone, and asked loudly at the mobile phone on the table: "Stars!" What's the matter with my brother? β
"Second brother...... Where are you? Eating and drinking with friends? β
"Your second brother and I are like this, how can I have any friends?!"
"Can you drive yourself? Do you want me to come out and pick you up? β
"Leave me alone."
Kong Qinchen didn't wait for his sister to finish speaking, and reached out and clicked on his mobile phone.
Kong Fanxing held the phone and changed her face slightly, but it didn't take long for her to hide her emotions again.
"Grandma Jiyu, go to sleep first. The second brother has not been in a good mood recently, so he will be decadent for a few days......"
The old man turned around and went out worriedly.
In the tavern, although the air conditioner is turned on very much, there is a chaotic sound of guessing and drinking, which makes people very irritable.
Kong Qinchen poured himself another full cup of Xiaobai Gan'er and drank it.
In the midst of the midnight frolicking, the translucent curtain was lifted, and a woman peered in the doorway and entered.
Kong Qinchen sat facing the door, crossed his hands on the table, and saw that it was Weng Ningyang, a female policewoman from the criminal police team, who came in.
Weng Ningyang, who walked in, also saw Kong Qinchen sitting alone in the tavern.
She stood in the low tavern and looked around, looking at the man staring at her, "What are you looking at?" Haven't seen a policewoman who comes to drink in the middle of the night? β
Kong Qinchen was not in a hurry to refute her, but said lightly, "The police are also mortals, and it is not strange to drink." β
"Oh...... So let's drink together? β
Weng Ningyang grinned and walked to the empty place opposite him and sat down.
With her lone ranger's eyes, it is not difficult to see that this guy is also a lone ranger.
At least tonight.
The person who runs the tavern is an elderly white-haired grandmother, she saw Weng Ningyang coming, came over with a set of utensils and wine glasses, and asked with a smile, "Girl, it's a little early tonight." β
"Grandma, I'm on vacation tonight."
"Really...... That's nice. Grandma gave her the cutlery, rubbed her hands on her apron, and hurriedly walked towards the back kitchen.
Kong Qinchen saw that Officer Weng, who was so arrogant every time they met, also had the shy side of his daughter's family, and couldn't help asking, "You often come here to drink?" β
"That's right! Not long after I came to work in Chenzhou, one night on my way back to the police station, a little cub introduced me that there was a late-night tavern hidden here, and business was booming-"
A tavern with a total of eight tables, and one is empty, which is also called a booming business?
Kong Qinchen snickered in his heart, if he was in a good mood, he would definitely let her know what it meant that business was booming!!
After taking a sip of Xiaobaigan'er, Weng Ningyang grew his mouth, obviously hurt by the fierceness of the liquor, "That's why I came here." What about you? β
"Drinking alone doesn't seem like the daily life of your Confucius Institute! Let's talk about it, are you still remembering that you were abandoned by your ex? β
"Why are you so happy about my divorce?"
Kong Qinsi sat in front of her like a statue, just watching her pour wine into her mouth cup by cup, "You can drink so much?" β
Unexpectedly, the policewoman, who has always been straightforward, frowned and stared at him expressionlessly.
There was mixed emotions in those eyes.
