Chapter 33: Lily's Confession
As soon as I stepped out of the bar door, the sea breeze was blowing. In the moonlight, the shadows of the two were stretched very long.
Chen Cheng noticed that as soon as he walked into the dock, Coco became absent-minded. The boats on the dock are of different styles, the big ones are cargo ships, the small ones are fishing boats, and Coco asks, "Where is your boat?" ”
"Ahead." There were also some workers at the dock unloading goods at night.
Drops –
Another ship is coming into port. The two men stood on the shore and saw that the ship was full of cargo boxes, and they were also stacked on the deck or hatch. The cargo hatch of a container ship is wide and long, and the speed is generally higher than that of other cargo ships, up to more than 30 knots.
The hull of the ship is painted white, printed with several blue fonts, and it is written "Ronghui Group". The boat slowly approached the shore, and Coco looked up at the big ship in front of him, and there was surprise in his eyes - when people see objects that are several times larger than themselves, they will always involuntarily have a sense of insignificance.
Chen Cheng put his arm around her shoulders: "Do you want to go to the boat to have a look?" ”
"Do you have a way?"
"What's this, everyone is a crew member, and it doesn't take much effort to get in and have a look," Chen Cheng was much clearer by the night wind, "But you have to tell me why you want to go in and see it so much." ”
"I haven't been to the beach for years," Wei Kexin's voice stiffened a little, "When I was a child, my dad often took me to see it. So now ......"
Chen Cheng said, "Did you just come?" I haven't seen you in the store before. ”
"Hmm."
Chen Cheng went to take Coco's hand, the latter turned his head to look at him, suddenly pulled out his hand, pointed to the moon in the sky, and said very stiffly: "Look at the moon tonight!" ”
Chen Cheng walked to the front of the white boat and accosted the workers: "Brother, are you still short of people on the boat?" ”
"No shortage, what's wrong?"
"There's a fellow villager of mine on your ship, I've been looking for him for a long time, and I can't get through on the phone, we can go up and see if he's still there, okay?" Chen Cheng said as he took out a cigarette and handed it to the man.
"I guess it's gone, and the crew has gone ashore to play."
"We'll go up for five minutes." Chen Cheng said.
The worker shook his head: "It's not that I won't let you go, it's definitely okay usually, but this cargo hasn't been unloaded, it's all very expensive goods, sorry buddy." ”
When he saw that he was embarrassed, he said, "Forget it, let's go look elsewhere." ”
Chen Cheng had no choice but to take her to the ship where he worked, only the person on duty was there, and when he saw Wei Kexin, the rest of his colleagues looked at him narrowly, but Keke didn't care about the eyes of others, and turned around on the deck before leaving.
"Okay, I've seen it," Chen Cheng became a little impatient, "Go to mine or you tonight?" ”
Wei Kexin looked at him in surprise: "When did I say I wanted to be with you?" ”
"Then what are you doing with me?" Chen Cheng was speechless for a while, thinking that he had indeed called her out to see the boat, he was a little annoyed, "Forget it, then you can go." I also don't like to force others, if you have money, you can't spend it? ”
Coco took two steps back and looked at him warily.
Chen Cheng scratched his hair in annoyance, thinking that it was not too late, and it would be okay to go back to KTV and find someone else.
He walked in a hurry, not noticing that the girl named Coco did not leave, but disembarked and dodged into a pile of high cargo.
After Chen Cheng walked out for a while, he found that Coco had not followed, and when he looked back, the color of the sea seemed to be a black tide rising, and it looked particularly turbulent in the moonlight.
Back to the "Yanguangwan Bar", a new round of excitement has already begun here.
Chen Cheng ordered a glass of whiskey at the bar and drank alone.
After a while, he became drunk again, and somehow remembered what he had just said. The history of "Ronghui" is now unknown to many people. Drunk, he pulled up the cuff of his left hand, revealing a tattoo on his wrist, which was the most common dragon claw.
"Handsome guy, alone?"
A woman sat in front of her blurred eyes, and for a moment she couldn't even feel her age. Chen Cheng's eyes focused and saw a mediocre-looking woman, but there was always something indescribably awkward, but she had a good figure and a very reassuring temperament. Not only that, but the woman coiled her hair, but scattered a few tufts of black hair and didn't coil it up, showing a bit of casual nature in the dignified.
"Hmm."
"Just get off the boat, you can rest for a few months."
Chen Cheng said: "Yes, yes. You...... How did you come up with the idea to come to the bar? ”
"Boring," the woman ordered the same glass of wine as him, "isn't that why everyone comes to the bar?" ”
Chen Cheng thought of Coco and shook his head, "Not necessarily. ”
"What's wrong, out of love?"
A faint fruity scent penetrated into Chen Cheng's nose, and the extremely close breath dissipated his unhappiness, and he shook his head, "How is it possible." ”
"Oh?"
Chen Cheng said: "I just met a weirdo, I can't afford to come to the bar, and I hate this kind of pretending woman the most...... Don't talk about that. ”
"Yes......," the woman laughed again, "after all, you're good-looking, so you'll be popular." ”
Even the people on the boat knew that Chen Cheng loved to go to bars, and at the same time spent all the money he earned on the young lady and the escort girl. He obviously has a good face, and it is difficult to be rejected every time he accosted a woman, but he is a person who doesn't talk about love at all. According to himself, he didn't have much patience.
"How old are you?"
"What do you think?" Chen Cheng drank another glass of wine, and his eyes were also dyed with a layer of drunken red, "I came out to run a boat at the age of twenty, and now I have been running for five or six years. Well, earned quite a bit. ”
In his usual preference, he doesn't like the kind of woman who looks perfect, especially the type that is unapproachable and high-minded. The strange thing is that the woman in front of him is obviously ordinary, but she always gives him such feelings, and it is not uncommon for this temperament to appear in a beauty, but ...... He shook his head, feeling that he had drunk too much and that his thoughts were out of control.
"What about you?" Chen Cheng asked curiously.
"A woman's age is a secret." The woman said casually.
"Are you hungry then?"
"It's a little, but the food here is not delicious, it's all fast food that has been hot for I don't know how many times."
"And what do you want to eat?" Chen Cheng is as good as a stream. The woman helped him up, and as she drew closer, the scent became more pronounced. I don't know what brand of perfume she uses.
He heard the gentle voice say, "Go to me, you can make me something to eat." ”
As if being led, he took a few steps and smiled very happily: "Okay." ”
He finally remembered what he felt awkward: there was a bright smile on this ordinary face that was very incompatible.
Lily's Confession
Lily: There were a lot of people that night, and I don't remember any special guests. Usually the people who come to our store are regulars...... We're all serious business here, and there's no mess. I haven't heard of it anyway. Who is our boss? I don't know this, I'm just a small employee, where can I have the opportunity to meet the boss. I'm not dishonest, I've just heard them talk about it a few times, saying that our bar should be Mr. Rong, but it was inconvenient for him to come forward, so he found someone else to pretend to be the boss, but in fact, the real boss is ...... But this is all speculation in private.
