Chapter 139: I Don't Care About Her Past
Ning Jae-woo meets up with a few college-time friends to celebrate his single's five-week chart-topping list, at a bar owned by one of his friends that is filled with exoticism and nostalgia.
Although there were only six people, because of the presence of the big star Ning Zaiyu, in order to avoid causing a commotion, the owner of the bar, Pei Shengwei, closed the bar for one night.
The six big men sat down in front of the bar, ordered their favorite wines, first toasted Ning Zaiyu with a glass, and then complained.
"Zaiyu, you are really too much, if you didn't see it in the newspaper, we wouldn't have known that your father was the secretary of the provincial party committee." The friend gave Ning Jaeyu a hard punch.
"That's it!" Friend 2 also looked angry, "At the beginning, the six of us lived in the same dormitory, and you always only said that your father was a civil servant...... When I saw the news, my first thought was: I'm going to beat you up brat. ”
Friend San slanted at Ning Zaiyu's best friend Zhao Hengyi, and asked tentatively: "Hengyi, you should know, after all, the two of you have been together since elementary school...... So, you keep saying that your father was a civil servant? I don't know what level of civil servant you are talking about? ”
"Huh?" Zhao Hengyi answered lazily, took a sip of the cocktail in the cup unhurriedly, and then said with a smile: "It's an ordinary civil servant." ”
Friend three = one = this = read = novel xstxt frowned, but even if he had doubts in his heart, people had already said so, and there was really no need for him to ask.
Pei Shengwei knew that Zhao Hengyi didn't want to be asked about his family, so he changed the topic and joked to him: "Hengyi, you are a big man, what kind of cocktail do you drink?" I'll introduce you to the Grenadian rum I drink, which is what men drink. ”
Zhao Hengyi shook his head slowly, and said with a pun: "Forget it, I'm not as heavy as you." ”
After Pei Shengwei heard this, his facial expression suddenly froze, he stopped talking, picked up the wine glass and drank the stuffy wine.
"Huh? Are you two weird? Ning Zaiyu squinted his eyes and looked at the two friends, "I know that Heng Yi has always been very well-informed, Sheng Wei, what's wrong with you lately?" ”
"It's nothing ......" Pei Shengwei glanced at Ning Zaiyu in frustration, saying that there were a lot of people now, and he didn't want to talk about it.
Ning Zaiyu comprehended, so he didn't ask any more, looked at Zhao Hengyi, who was drinking cocktails with relish, and asked curiously: "I rarely see you drinking cocktails, is it delicious?" ”
Zhao Hengyi nodded slightly, glanced at the young bartender, and then said slowly: "The wisest decision Sheng Wei has made since running this bar is to hire that kid to be a bartender. ”
"Oh?" Ning Zaiyu followed Zhao Hengyi's line of sight, and a boy who seemed to be less than twenty years old was intently wiping his wine glass.
Hey? Has he been standing there all the time? The sense of presence is so weak.
"His wine can tone a person's mood." Zhao Hengyi is very literary, no wonder, he is the owner of a gallery.
"Oh?" Ning Zaiyu is the same single tone again, and Zhao Hengyi is still so exaggerated when he speaks.
However, the boy was really pretty. Although it is a bit too much to describe a man as pretty, he is indeed beautiful.
And...... It seems a little familiar.
Ning Jae-woo stared at the bartender for a long time, carefully looking at his appearance, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him, was he a fan?
The bartender seemed to sense that Ning Jae-woo's gaze stayed on his face for too long, so he looked at him, and then ...... glanced at it fiercely, and looked away expressionlessly.
I'll go! How dare this stinky boy glare at me! Ning Zaiyu was suddenly furious.
"Poof-" Zhao Hengyi laughed out loud, looked at the bartender and praised: "It's worthy of the person I fancie, and even the big star PK doesn't give face." ”
"Heng Yi ......" Ning Zaiyu didn't care about a child, so he vented his anger on his friend, put on a surprised but natural expression, and asked thoughtfully: "Are you finally coming out?" ”
Zhao Hengyi was not angry, and teased lightly: "I still think that women are better than men, and if I really come out one day, maybe my first target will be you." ”
"I'll forget it." Ning Zaiyu waved his hand again and again, and pointed at Pei Shengwei, "No matter how you look at it, you and Shengwei are more suitable." ”
"Me? I can't! Pei Shengwei looked at Ning Zaiyu and said jokingly: "It's better for you, it's a little bit of a shame for you to get out of it." ”
"Master, I'm going to attack!" Ning Zaiyu was so angry that he slapped the table and jumped up from the chair, and after thinking about it, this sentence didn't seem to be right, and he sat back on the bar chair stupidly, "Master, I only like women." ”
"Speaking of women...... my friend's third hand put his hand on Ning Zaiyu's shoulder, and asked with super envy: "How did your brother and your sister-in-law meet?" The age difference of ten years is one year younger than us, and she is such a cute and delicate little beauty, I really envy the dead. ”
"Delicate?" Ning Zaiyu savored these two words, smacked his lips, and said with a crying expression: "Tsk, you really dare to use adjectives." ”
Zhao Hengyi found that the bartender's action of wiping the glass suddenly stopped, as if he was interested in this topic, and it seemed to be a habitual daze on weekdays.
After thinking about it, he said, "I don't think the age difference of ten years is much, but it's really surprising that such a young girl is a famous songwriter." ”
"My sister-in-law is a genius!" Ning Jaeyu's tone was full of pride.
The bartender glared at Ning Zaiyu again, put down the wine glass in his hand and seemed to want to leave, but he was reluctant to leave after all.
Zhao Hengyi drank all the wine in the cup, he had already determined that the child cared about Ning Zaiyu's sister-in-law very much.
"Blue, make me another glass of wine." As he spoke, he pushed his empty cup over.
The bartender looked at Zhao Hengyi silently for a while, then walked over to put away his cup with an expressionless face, and nodded at him.
"Blue?" Ning Zaiyu's gaze followed the bartender, and he called out casually, and as soon as the words fell, he was immediately glared at by the boy again.
was about to get angry, but he was held down by Pei Shengwei's shoulder.
"Don't mind, he's like that. Don't talk about you, except for Hengyi, even I, the boss, can't call him by name. Pei Shengwei persuaded his friend, he had long been accustomed to doing this kind of thing, and there were often customers who were angry with this bartender.
However, although the child's temper was a little eccentric, he had a pair of divine hands, and the wine he made was a work of art, and every glass could touch people's hearts.
Otherwise, how could someone as picky as Zhao Hengyi stay here every day and not leave?
Ning Jaeyu was about to say something when someone's mobile phone rang, and his friend went to answer the phone together. After a while, he came back and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, it's rare for everyone to get together, but I'm going to leave first." I submitted a proposal during the day that needed to revise some data, so I had to go back to the company. ”
"Then I'll go too." Friend San also stood up, pointed to his dark circles and said, "My little resident doctor has been staying up all night for two nights, if it weren't for you looking for me, my precious eight-hour rest time would definitely be in bed." So, I'm sorry, in line with the purpose of being responsible for the patient's life, I still went back to sleep. ”
Friend Er, who was looking at his mobile phone, dried up the wine in the cup, waved his hand to Ning Zaiyu and the others, and said with a smile: "Dude, I'm also leaving, my girlfriend said that she was a little uncomfortable, let me accompany her to the doctor." ”
"Why do you walk three at once?" Ning Zaiyu glared at his friend, "Especially you, heavy color and light friends." ”
"I'm not a heavy friend, you think, it's rare for people to open their mouths, and I'm sick, it's really unreasonable for my boyfriend not to be around." While speaking, he patted Ning Zaiyu on the shoulder and said jokingly: "You are still young after all, you go home and ask your brother about this kind of thing, he must be more experienced than me." Looking at his performance in the news, you know that he must love your sister-in-law very much. Okay, let's not talk about it, let's see you later. ”
After sending the three of them away, Ning Zaiyu sat back in the chair, thought thoughtfully for a while, and muttered: "My brother is not so simple as hurting my sister-in-law, he spoils her so much that there is no lower limit, and a friend of my brother summed it up very accurately in one word." ”
"Which word?" Pei Shengwei asked with a smile, he was very curious about what Ning Zaiyu's god-like eldest brother became after marriage, Ning Ronghao, that was the idol in his and Zhao Hengyi's minds.
Ning Zaiyu smiled slightly, and said two words softly: "Wife slave!" ”
Pei Shengwei was stunned for a moment, glanced at each other with Zhao Hengyi, and asked in disbelief: "Slave?" Wouldn't it be a bit too exaggerated? ”
Pursing his lips and shaking his head, Ning Zaiyu leaned over to the two and said in a low voice: "It's not an exaggeration at all, haven't you seen it...... Even if my sister-in-law loses a hair, he is so worried that he can't wait to take her to the hospital for a check-up; My sister-in-law is a child, and she can't be idle for a minute, plus she has a lot of associations, either she wants to eat this or that. During this time, I was at home every day, and the nanny had to buy a bunch of fruit every morning. This was not enough, my brother called her at least twice a day to ask if she wanted to eat. As long as my sister-in-law says yes, my brother will definitely bring it back at noon or night, and even if there is a social, he has to send the snacks home first; And ......"
"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Pei Shengwei urgently called a stop.
"What are you waiting for? I haven't finished it yet......" Ning Zaiyu said it vigorously, he has been holding these words in his heart for a long time, and he will go crazy if he can't find anyone to talk to.
"You've got to wait for me!" Pei Shengwei was almost about to cover Ning Zaiyu's mouth, he felt that what he had just heard was too unbelievable, and asked in surprise with his eyes: "What you just said is indeed your brother?" Your own brother? Ning Ronghao? ”
Ning Zaiyu nodded vigorously, patted Pei Shengwei's shoulder as if he had found a bosom friend, and said with a wry smile: "You don't believe it when you hear it, do you?" It's not hard for you to imagine what kind of life I've been living for more than two months, right? When I see my brother like that, I can't help but pinch myself, hoping that I am dreaming. ”
"Oh my God!" Pei Shengwei shouted in grief, pretending to hug Ning Zaiyu and cry, "How could my idol become like this...... God, help me...... No, save my idol......"
Zhao Hengyi ignored the two men who started performing soap operas again, stared at the bartender standing in front of him with a pair of deep eyes, and asked softly, "Lan, won't you give me the wine?" ”
The bartender was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, put the wine in his hand on the bar with an expressionless face, and slowly pushed it towards Zhao Hengyi.
Zhao Hengyi smiled lightly and didn't say anything more, just savored the wine in the glass.
Hey? He raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at the bartender again.
This wine, although very delicious, seems to be a little less feeling.
This must be the first time that kid has missed, right? Maybe...... Is it because it was too hasty?
He...... Do you want to hear Ning Jae-woo talk about his sister-in-law so much? Because the voice was too quiet, he quickly finished the wine, but when he brought it, he did not hand it to himself, but stood there and listened carefully.
How long have you known that kid? It's been one hundred and ninety-one days, and for the first time, he's shown interest in something.
In this case, I am kind enough to help and give him a chance so that he can hear Ning Zaiyu's words word for word.
"Lan, if you're not busy, sit down and have a drink with me." Zhao Hengyi smiled and sent an invitation to the bartender, this is the one hundred and ninety time he has invited him, that is, from the second day of knowing him.
As of yesterday, there were zero successes.
However, Zhao Hengyi believes that he will not refuse today.
Pei Shengwei glanced at Zhao Hengyi, such a drama is staged every day, hasn't he played enough?
But a few seconds later, Pei Shengwei saw the kid pour a glass of water for himself, and then pulled the chair in the bar and sat opposite Zhao Hengyi for the first time.
At this moment, Pei Shengwei pinched himself fiercely, he felt that what he heard and saw today was a dream.
"Don't you drink?" A smile flashed in Zhao Hengyi's eyes, and when he saw that the kid shook his head, he didn't say anything more, it was already rare that he was willing to sit down. Since he is so well-behaved, I will help him again.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hengyi looked at Ning Zaiyu and asked, "What about your sister-in-law?" What about your brother? ”
"It's for sure, and I think her love for my brother and my brother's love for her are basically inseparable. The day before yesterday, my brother had a fever, and she was nervous and kept by his side for two days and two nights, and she didn't even look at him, which made my mother feel distressed. Ning Zaiyu grinned with a smile, "I went home to change my clothes before I came, and by the way, I looked at my brother, and as soon as I entered the door, I saw my sister-in-law crying there." I was shocked, and I thought my brother had fainted, so I hurriedly walked over, but I saw him looking at my sister-in-law helplessly. When I asked, I found out that my brother had finally lost his fever, and she was happy. ”
"Flounder is in love." Zhao Hengyi glanced at the bartender with the afterglow of his gaze, and asked: "Your sister-in-law should be twenty-two years old, she got married really early, how did our brother deceive other girls?" ”
"Blind date...... Don't lie, the two of them are called love. Don't look at my sister-in-law as a female man, and she is confused in her work, not to mention her cooking skills......" Ning Zaiyu suddenly covered his mouth, and he wanted to vomit a little as soon as he remembered the unknown creature he saw that day. After a long pause, he continued: "However, she is still chased by many people, and according to my brother, it is really not easy for him to marry my sister-in-law. ”
"Hmm." Pei Shengwei nodded approvingly, "She looks so cute and talented, if it's me, I like it too." As for cooking, it doesn't matter if she doesn't cook when she marries a wife. As for the female man, what's going on? ”
"My sister-in-law is proficient in karate, taekwondo, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and I met her for the first time...... Who would have thought that she was Lin Ya, I thought it was a staff member or trainee who was lazy sleeping there, so I flicked it her forehead, and she was thrown to the ground by her back. It was so cruel that it made my face bruise and caused me to stop announcing for three days. Ning Zaiyu avoided it lightly, and didn't say that he wanted to tease Chu Xinyi, which would only make him more embarrassed.
After this scandal, he would never mention to anyone that he had ever liked Chu Xinyi. After all, she is now his sister-in-law, and he has completely and completely let go of this feeling, and even feels a little lucky about his broken love.
My sister-in-law, except for my eldest brother, no one can stand it.
Did I just read it wrong? Zhao Hengyi stared at the back of the bartender who got up and left with half-squinted eyes, and the fleeting emotion in his eyes just now...... Is it jealousy?
That three-no-nothing boy with no mouth, no heart, and no expression was jealous of Ning Zaiyu? Is it because of the woman he cares about?
"By the way, Sheng Wei, Heng Yi just said that you have a heavy taste, what do you mean?" Ning Jae-woo suddenly thought of the previous conversation.
Pei Shengwei, who was drinking, was almost choked, he coughed twice, and said in a slurred voice: "It's not a thing...... I just have a girl I like. ”
"Girls? Underage? Ning Zaiyu had already identified his guess from Pei Shengwei's expression, he looked at his friend with disdain, and said self-righteously: "Pei Shengwei, I really misjudged you." ”
"Am I that inhuman?" Pei Shengwei glared at Ning Zaiyu with black lines on his face, "Although I am a very innocent person, no matter how innocent I am, I will not touch underage girls." ”
"You, at most, are pseudo-innocent, otherwise you wouldn't like that woman." Zhao Hengyi choked Pei Shengwei and let out a long sigh.
Ning Zaiyu had already hung his appetite, and asked urgingly, "What the hell is going on?" Can you both be a little more simple and happy? ”
"You say? Or do I say? Zhao Hengyi asked Pei Shengwei for advice.
"I said to myself, it's not a shame to like her." Pei Shengwei looked at Ning Zaiyu and said confidently: "The woman I like is pregnant." ”
"Wow, Sheng Wei, you are amazing, I didn't expect that among the few of us, you were the first to be a father." Ning Jae-woo punched his friend, not noticing that his face became more ugly.
Pei Shengwei waved his hand in a panic and explained to Ning Ronghao: "You misunderstood, her child...... Not mine. ”
"It's your own words that have a problem." Zhao Hengyi corrected it for him, "Sheng Wei fell in love with a pregnant woman and wanted to be a ready-made father." ”
"Don't say it so badly." Pei Shengwei glanced at Zhao Hengyi dissatisfied, they had argued more than once because of this matter during this time, "Hengyi, you are a perfectionist, so you don't allow the person you love to have a little flaw." I'm not like you at this point. However, I have something in common with you, we like a person, and we both like this person. You can not mind the gender of that person, and I don't care about her past. ”
Zhao Hengyi glanced at the bartender, didn't say anything, just silently drank the wine in his cup.
The wine he blended.
