Chapter 16 The Nightingale

Nightingale is a bar in Jinghua that is not open to the public and accepts VIP reservations.

Bai Ran stopped the car in the parking lot according to the navigation position. The location was in the middle of the back alley toward the city center. There were commercial buildings nearby.

Nightingale is on the fifth floor. It looks like an ordinary building from the outside, but the decoration inside is extraordinary.

She had heard of it before, but had never been in it.

"Mr. Bai is waiting for you on the third floor."

The waiters here are all women, wearing sexy and non-revealing professional attire, with standard smiles, and they are very respectful as soon as they see her.

"Thanks."

Following her up, Bai Ran noticed that the first floor was already full of people, the second floor was more magnificent than the first floor, but the third floor was very ordinary.

Gray walls, corridors without any decorations, and black doors.

The waiter took her to the third room on the left and knocked on the door: "Mr. Bai, Miss Bai is here."

The waiter turned the door handle without waiting for the person inside to respond. She pushed the door half open and motioned for her to come in. She nodded in vain.

After entering, it looks like a simple hotel, except that the decoration and layout of the room look valuable.

And the corridor outside are two extremes.

"Brother?" she shouted, walked to the middle of the living room, and heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom.

Probably hearing her voice, after the sound of water stopped, footsteps came from the bathroom. The man had a bath towel on, but it was not fastened, exposing his strong chest.

The fierce male tension rushed over his face.

At that moment, Bai Ran realized the difference between men and women. She turned her head slightly to one side and found a place to sit down.

"coming."

Bai Yian is Bai Ran's cousin, and the only person in the Bai family who truly accepts her. Thanks to his care in the past few years, Bai Yian has been abroad in the past few years, and she only found out about her return to China this afternoon through news reports.

Bai Yian changed his clothes and the two sat across from each other. Bai Ran had many things to say, but he didn't know which one to say first.

He poured her a glass of warm water with roses soaked in it.

"I heard that you've been having a rough time lately, and you've just been replaced." Even though he hasn't been in Beijing for a few years, Bai Yian always knows everything about Bai Ran's movements.

"Also, the Tang family is going to marry the Qin family, and you are out." His words were sharp, piercing her heart.

Bai Ran unconsciously picked up the cup and took a sip of water, then held the cup with both hands and placed it on his knees.

"Brother, don't be like this. You just came back and are you here to laugh at me?"

After saying this, the two people laughed, and the barrier that they had not seen for a long time disappeared.

After more than an hour, they talked a lot. Bai Ran was always curious about Bai Yian's life abroad, and would occasionally complain about his current situation.

"Xiao Ran, if you are willing, you can follow me abroad. I can take care of you, find you a job, and even arrange for you to make your debut abroad. These are no problems."

Bai Yian said such words for the first time, Bai Ran was a little stunned. Although she was curious about life abroad, Beijing was everything to her.

"No, brother, you just need to share it with me occasionally." She shrugged, not taking his words to heart.

Standing in front of the window, there were no tall buildings nearby, only small buildings. She could see the precarious alleys at a glance.

"Brother, you open this bar?"

Bai Yian walked by and patted her shoulder: "Interested?"

"I invested some money in Fu Rushen's business."

Fu Rushen, Bai Ran pursed his lips when he heard the name.

Seeing her expression, Bai Yian smiled and said, "Do you want him to apologize to you?"

The fierce knock on the door frightened Bai Ran. Bai Yian looked at the door and signaled her to be quiet.

"who?"

"Yian, it's me."

The person who spoke was known to Bai Ran. He was Bai Yian's wife, Tang Jing.

The Tang family and the Bai family are related by marriage several levels apart. Tang Jing is a branch of the Tang family from the Five Fortunes. Being able to marry Bai Yi'an was considered a high achievement at the beginning.

Bai Yian opened the door, blocked Bai Ran with his tall body, and quickly went out and closed the door. He was not inside, and no one dared to go in.

Tang Jing was panting, wrapped in a coat and still carrying the cold wind outside, with some messy long hair scattered behind her ears.

"It's twelve o'clock now."

Bai Yian glanced at his watch and said with a dull expression: "Yes."

"Who are you here to see?"

When Bai Yian heard her question, he narrowed his eyes and said dissatisfied: "Go home."

"Bai Yi'an, you came to see Bai Ran, right?" Tang Jing's voice was not quiet, but when talking about Bai Ran, he naturally lowered his voice for fear that others would hear.

Bai Yian didn't want Bai Ran to hear, so he dragged the person to the fire escape. There were not many people here usually and it was quiet.

The two people were confronting each other, without even noticing that there was someone standing on the platform on the next floor.

Tang Yunsheng felt that the private room was stuffy, so he came out to take a breath. Unexpectedly, he encountered a couple quarreling, and when he was about to leave, he heard Bai Ran's name.

"Why do we meet so late at night, not during the day? You can let her come to your house for dinner, and I can do that, but why are you here, a man and a woman alone, what are you doing?"

Bai Yian was a head taller than her. Seeing her chattering and being unforgiving, her merciless eyebrows became even more impatient.

The beautiful skin looks mean at this moment.

"Why do you have to come back? You will succeed AC President next month, why do you have to come back?"

"Tang Jing, you should stand your ground."

Tang Jing covered his face with his hands, then raised his head and asked him stubbornly: "Do you still like her?"

Bai Yian sneered and asked, "Who?"

"Burn in vain."

Tang Yunsheng stood there, the cigarette in his hand was completely lit and burned a hole in his hand.
