Cao Yuan was stunned for a moment, then he clinked glasses and said with a wry smile, "It's still possible to surrender the Black King. If I don't fight the bachelor...sigh."
Cao Yuan sighed and drank all the wine in his glass.
"Qingyu, sister Jiang Er, this is a toast to you." Baili Pangpang picked up another glass of wine and said to An Qingyu and Jiang Er, "Qiye is about to marry Jialan, you two should be as fast as you are.
Hurry up... Qingyu, sister Jiang Er is such a good girl, you have to cherish her and don't do stupid things.
This [Yao Guang] is one of my favorite forbidden items, and I give it to you first, as a wedding gift that I sent in advance."
Baili Pangpang took out a necklace from his arms and handed it to An Qingyu, who was slightly startled.
"Pangpang, what are you..."
"I did it first!"
Baili Pangpang finished the last sip of his drink, his whole face turned red and his eyes were a little blurry.
"Pangpang, you're drunk." Seeing this, Lin Qiye frowned slightly, held the crumbling Baili Pangpang with both hands, and said to the others, "You eat first, I will send him back to rest."
Under the night sky, everyone looked at the figure who was being helped and staggered away, leaving only the sound of hot pot sizzling in the air.
…
Compared with the lively square, the area near the dormitory was much deserted. Stars hung in the dark dome, and under the dim street lights, two figures walked slowly forward.
Lin Qiye supported Baili Pangpang. The strong smell of alcohol hit his face. He hesitated for a moment and finally said:
"Pangpang, are you worried about something?"
Baili Pangpang burped, shook his head and said with a smile, "No, what can I be worried about?"
"I don't know...but I feel like this isn't like you."
Baili Pangpang's steps paused slightly, "Really? Then, what do you think I should look like?"
Lin Qiye thought for a while, "The Baili Pangpang I know seems careless and heartless. Sometimes he does stupid things, but he is actually very considerate. The more critical he is, the more he smiles.
Adjust the atmosphere..."
Baili Pangpang blinked his eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It does sound a bit like me."
He looked at the starry sky above his head, and after a moment, he spoke again, "Qiye..."
"Um?"
"Tell me, what does my existence mean to this world?"
Lin Qiye was stunned on the spot.
"I mean, even if this world doesn't have me, Baili Pangpang, there won't be much change... right?" Baili Pangpang pointed to the stars in the sky above his head, "It's like the one above
Even if a remote star goes out one day, no one will notice it.
But if the moon disappears in the sky, it will definitely cause a lot of panic."
Lin Qiye looked at his side face, and after a moment of silence, he said, "If you say so, not only you, but also each of us are dispensable to this world. After all, without any one of us, it will still run the same.
…But why should we be measured by the world’s standards? No one’s existence can be replaced.
Without Baili Pangpang, the world may function as usual, but [Night] cannot... If nothing else, without you, how could we have hot pot here? Without you, how many night watchmen would be here?
Died in a war?
People standing on the ground may not notice the disappearance of the stars, but the night sky will remember it."
Baili Pangpang stood there, silent for a long time like a sculpture, and smiled helplessly. He seemed to feel much more relaxed.
"When you say that, it seems to be true..."
"Don't think about these things. No matter what happens, you will always be Baili Pangpang of the [Yemu] team." Lin Qiye patted his shoulder, "You are too tired today, go back and have a good rest tonight.
We are guarding it."
"Um."
The two of them crossed a deserted road and soon returned to the door of Baili Fatty's room.
Baili Pangpang walked into the house, turned on the light, turned back to face Lin Qiye in the corridor, and smiled slightly, with a hint of drunkenness still on his face.
"Goodbye, Qiye." He said softly.
"Well, see you tomorrow." Lin Qiye waved his hand.
The door slowly closed, and the light flowing in the crack of the door completely disappeared. Lin Qiye stood in the dim corridor, and after a moment, turned around and left.
…
When Lin Qiye returned to the square, everyone had almost eaten.
"How is it? Is he feeling better?" An Qingyu asked when he saw Lin Qiye coming back.
"It should be better... I asked some strange questions, maybe he is not in a good mood." Lin Qiye sighed, "I rarely see him showing such an expression..."
"When you left just now, two more groups of girls came, also asking for his contact information... Will he be happier if he knows the news?" Hongying thought for a while and took out a few pieces of paper from her arms.
The note was handed to Lin Qiye's hand, "I collected those girls' notes for him. You can give them to him when you have time."
Lin Qiye looked at the pile of notes in his palm and said with a wry smile, "Then let me thank you for him first, Sister Hongying."
Just as everyone was talking, a figure slowly came from a distance. When she approached, a faint fragrance blew over everyone's faces, and the smell was very comfortable.
Lin Qiye turned around and saw Molly standing not far away with her lips pursed. She was still wearing the dark red cloak. It was no different from the daytime, but she seemed to have dressed up carefully and looked much better.
Even though she was so beautiful, the smell of blood on her body was completely covered up by the fragrant wind.
"Molly! Are you here? Sit down and have something to eat!"
When Hongying saw Molly coming, she immediately took out the pony beside her and spoke happily.
"...Thank you." Molly tucked the ends of her hair behind her ears with her fingertips, looked around, and asked doubtfully, "Where's Baili Pangpang?"
[Night] Everyone in the team looked at each other, and after a moment, Lin Qiye answered:
"He...goes back to rest first."
"Going back?" Molly was stunned.
"Well, I seem to be not feeling well."
Molly couldn't hide the disappointment on her face. She nodded silently, then slowly turned around and walked in the direction she came from...
From the changes in Molly's expression and body, Hongying immediately smelled something unusual. She was about to ask the people around her in confusion, but Lin Qiye made a silent gesture to her, and slightly
Shake his head.
Molly took a few steps forward and suddenly stopped. She seemed to have made up her mind. She turned back and asked a little embarrassedly:
