A Deng was also dragged into this occasion by a friend.
They were all friends in middle school. They were not good at anything and were the first in fights. Later, A Deng was sent to practice martial arts and we lost contact with them.
He met them when he was working not long ago, and soon after, the news about him working for Si Junfeng spread throughout his circle of friends.
Today's drinking party was actually saved for him.
"Brother Deng, let's go."
"Brother Deng, let's go one too."
"..."
Ah Deng looked embarrassed. Si Junfeng had strict requirements and was not allowed to drink alcohol unless it was during annual leave.
"Thank you everyone, I'll give you a drink instead of wine," A Deng said with a smile, "You can't lose your job because of drinking, right?"
"Understand, understand."
After a round of drinks, the friends winked at each other and entered into today's theme.
"Brother Deng, you are doing so well now, please give me some care."
"I heard that Boss Si's company has a lot of projects. If you drop some scum, we can have enough to eat."
"That's right, Brother Deng, if it doesn't work out, you can accept us as your younger brothers..."
"I've had too much to drink and I'm still feeling strong. I'll go to the bathroom first." A Deng excused himself and left.
The atmosphere in the box was gloomy.
"A Deng doesn't seem to want to help."
"That's how people are, they don't recognize others even if they have some skills."
"Don't worry, don't we have other preparations?"
Everyone nodded and smiled evilly.
"boom"!
A Deng was in a cubicle in the bathroom when he suddenly heard a muffled sound.
He didn't take it seriously, opened the door, and a figure suddenly fell into his arms.
The strong smell of perfume suddenly flooded into his nose. He endured it again and again, but he couldn't help but sneeze.
Looking again, he saw a woman in cool clothes in his arms.
"Girl, stand still." He helped the girl upright, but as soon as he let go, she fell over again.
This time she tightly grasped the fabric around his waist and murmured: "I'm dizzy, I'm so dizzy..."
She twisted her body uncomfortably, rubbing against him vaguely.
A Deng said "Oh", "You are not feeling well, let me help you wash your face."
He took her to the sink outside, turned on the faucet, and grabbed the back of the girl's head...
"A Deng!" Suddenly an angry female voice sounded.
Xu Qingru appeared not far away, her beautiful eyes glaring, "I didn't expect you to accept everyone who comes, and you are not picky about food at all!"
He grabbed the back of the girl's head, and she pressed against him. The scene was a bit misleading... but in fact, he wanted to grab the girl's head and pour water under the tap.
The girl pushed him away and ran away.
He didn't explain to Xu Qingru and was ready to leave.
"Why, you still want to catch up?" Xu Qingru stopped him.
"Xu Qingru, my affairs have nothing to do with you." A Deng was impatient.
Xu Qingru's eyes turned red instantly, "What's wrong with me that makes me so unwelcome to you?"
"You are good at everything, but I am not worthy of you." A Deng answered casually.
His perfunctory behavior made Xu Qingru even more sad.
Ah Deng's face changed slightly, and he looked past her and forward.
She turned her eyes and saw Qi Xuechun and Yunlou standing not far away.
A Deng has stepped forward quickly.
Qi Xuechun took the initiative to walk away and took Xu Qingru away.
"Why are you here?" Xu Qingru asked.
"I said we were worried about you, would you believe me?" Qi Xuechun asked.
"I'm fine." After saying that, Xu Qingru walked away.
Qi Xuechun didn't stop her. She could guess that Xu Qingru went to listen to what A Deng and Yun Lou said.
She didn't expect that Xu Qingru would fall so deeply into A Deng.
She knows very little about the relationship between men and women.
"...No need to explain, I don't mean that to you," Yun Louzheng showed off to A Deng, "I transferred some money to your account, and I paid for the things you bought me myself."
After saying that, she was ready to leave.
"Yunlou!" A Deng grabbed her arm: "Are you concerned about Xu Qingru? She and I have nothing."
"It has nothing to do with her, I'm just not interested in you." Yunlou looked at his arm coldly.
A Deng sighed silently and let go of his hand.
Yunlou added: "Xu Qingru is sincere to you, and she is a good girl. You can consider it."
Looking at Yunlou's figure who never looked back, A Deng's face was filled with disappointment.
A "chi" sneer sounded, and Xu Qingru came out from the corner, "It turns out that A Deng, who is so aloof, is sometimes rejected by others."
A Deng walked away, not wanting to talk to her.
She was reluctant and followed closely, "You don't have to be discouraged. Yunlou seems to be cold on the surface, but in fact he is being cool on purpose. If you persist for a while, she might agree."
A Deng paused and looked serious: "You are not allowed to talk about Yunlou like that!"
Xu Qingru was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "Are you still feeling distressed? Let me tell you, Yunlou's family is not in good condition, and she has to raise a daughter for her sister. When you are with her, be prepared to keep spending money."
A Deng raised his eyebrows: "How do you know that I don't want to?"
"You..." Xu Qingru was angry: "No matter what she is like, you are determined, right?"
A Deng has gone far.
Xu Qingru clenched her fists tightly.
**
That night, Qi Xuechun cooked herself and made a pot of spicy crayfish.
She made this because it was simple and easy to drink.
"Come over here," she said, pulling Yunlou and Xu Qingru to sit down. "Just drink with me."
Yunlou broke the silence first, opened two cans of beer and put them in front of himself and Xu Qingru, "Boss, please stop drinking. Let's drink some."
Xu Qingru stared at the beer can without making a sound.
Qi Xuechun pursed her lips: "Didn't we live and die together? Are we really going to have a falling out over a man?"
Xu Qingru hesitated for a moment, then finally picked up the beer and said, "I'll do it."
"I'll do it too." Yunlou nodded.
The two of them drank the entire bottle of beer in one go.
"Okay, can you let go of Adeng's matter?" Qi Xuechun asked.
"For the sake of the boss cooking the lobster himself, I have to let it go," Xu Qingru laughed at herself, "Doesn't it take me a long time to heal my broken love?"
Qi Xuechun shook his head: "This matter is actually my fault, Xu Qingru, if you want to blame me, come at me."
Xu Qingru said "hmm" and said, "If you do tasks in the future, please give me more money."
"Okay, more money." Qi Xuechun said without hesitation.
This time, Xu Qingru was happy to peel the lobster and eat it.
Qi Xuechun breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Yunlou: "Are you okay?"
Yunlou shook his head: "As long as she doesn't blame me, I'll be relieved."
Xu Qingru glanced at her and said, "Let's talk about it. In fact, A Deng is quite good. Why don't you accept it?"
"I...have no thoughts of falling in love for the time being," she replied.
Xu Qingru disagreed: "Can falling in love really be arranged? It's not like making work plans. When you make plans, you may not be able to find a good man."
Yunlou was a little distracted: "A good man...what is good and what is bad..."
Qi Xuechun was slightly stunned. It sounded like there was a story, but she was not prepared to ask any more questions.
"A good man is someone like Adeng. He must have good looks, outstanding work, and a good personality." Xu Qingru didn't hear anything unusual and muttered again.
Yunlou smiled bitterly: "Even a man like this will not hesitate when he gets rid of you."
The living room became quiet for a while.
"Yunlou, are you worried about something?" Qi Xuechun asked.
Xu Qingru also noticed it, and he would be a fool if he didn't.
Yunlou drank another can of beer before saying: "Actually, it's nothing. I fell in love and then we broke up..."
"What did you mean when you just said, throw it away without hesitation?" Xu Qingru was confused.
Yunlou's eyes went straight, "Isn't it just... being thrown away..." She suddenly let out a belch and fell down on the carpet.
Qi Xuechun and Xu Qingru were stunned.
"Looking at how shameless she is when she drinks," Xu Qingru slapped her forehead, "It turned out to be two bottles."
Two more days passed.
There was finally some movement on Cheng Shen'er's side.
Qi Xuechun received an invitation to attend a cocktail party held by the Cheng family.
After Xu Qingru inquired about the news, the Cheng family members agreed that Cheng Shen'er must reintegrate into the life of City A.
Girls always have to get married.
Girls from the Cheng family cannot marry into poverty, at least they must be young talents in the industry.
Therefore, the Cheng family decided to hold a large cocktail party before Cheng's mother had surgery to let people in the circle get to know Cheng Shen'er again.
"This invitation was sent to you on purpose," Xu Qingru pondered, "You are not from City A. You don't know many people, and few people know you."
"Maybe Cheng Shen'er did it on purpose." Yunlou said.
It is not difficult to mix one of Cheng Shen'er's secret handwriting into a large number of invitations.
"If you say that, Mr. Si must have received the invitation as well." Xu Qingru guessed.
Qi Xuechun nodded. The last time she threw something and caused such a big fuss, the story of her and Si Junfeng's "cold war" must have spread.
Cheng Shen'er probably wanted to invite her and Si Junfeng to the same place to test them.
Her idea was right, but she had a high regard for Cheng Shen'er. Cheng Shen'er was interested in testing and couldn't wait for the reception to start.
In the evening, she and Fu Yan made an appointment to have dinner at a restaurant.
Fu Yan heard that she would bring medicine, so he insisted on inviting her to dinner to express his gratitude.
Entering the restaurant, Qi Xuechun couldn't help but be stunned.
The restaurant is obviously a Western restaurant, and the decoration is very luxurious.
The guests were all wearing formal attire, but she was wearing jeans and short sleeves, so there was no chance of being mistaken for a waiter.
Because the male waiter wears a suit and the female waiter wears a skirt with puffy sleeves and a large skirt, it is much more formal than her.
"It doesn't matter," Fu Yan raised his eyebrows, "Don't be intimidated by the appearance. The more this kind of restaurant is, the more likely you are to know your pocket."
Fu Yan even wore jeans, short sleeves and slippers, with a toothpick in her mouth.
Compared to her obedient student appearance, Fu Yan is undoubtedly a rogue.
Qi Xuechun felt that Fu Yan was quite strange.
"Sir, good evening, madam, would you like to have a meal with me?" The waiter came forward and asked softly.
"You two, I want a seat by the window." Fu Yan said carelessly.
"Okay, please come this way." The waiter led the way.
After ordering, Qi Xuechun asked him in a low voice: "I saw the waiter was a little impatient just now, but he glanced at your watch and suddenly became friendly again."
Fu Yan took a look at his watch and smiled happily.
"Breguet's limited edition, he knows the goods."
Qi Xuechun didn't know much about luxury goods, but she guessed that his watch was very valuable, so she let the waiter take a high look at it.
