Maybe... while she was busy hoarding supplies, he was also working hard in his own direction.
He drove the car and took her through the streets of a strange place. After forty minutes, he arrived at a place.
There is a bar there.
Although it is still afternoon, there is already a large group of soul dancers in the bar, dressed in colorful clothes and with hair dyed in various colors, twisting their bodies feverishly to the rhythm of the music.
As a medical student obsessed with studying, Gu Nian didn't quite understand the behavior of those soul dancers.
Flashing lights are harmful to the eyes, restless music is not friendly to the ears, and various body distortions, especially crazy head shaking movements, can damage the bones and tendons of the human body...
Just when she frowned slightly in discomfort, Mr. Lin suddenly gently grabbed her wrist, pulled her around the group of fanatical soul dancers, and stood in front of the bartender.
"What do you two want to drink?"
"We were introduced by Liu San. We are looking for Brother Ying to discuss business," Lin Chen said.
The bartender nodded when he heard this and patted a bartender next to him: "Aqiang, take them to Brother Ying."
Lin Chen and Gu Nian followed the bartender, entered through an inconspicuous small door, and walked down a long, dimly lit corridor.
Gu Nian only felt that he had stepped into another completely unfamiliar field.
The sound of dice rolling and people's shouts filled the space.
The men were naked and gathered around the gaming table in the small room. The room was filled with smoke, alcohol, and the stench of sweat.
The bartender knocked on the door of the room at the end of the hallway.
"Brother Ying, someone is looking for you."
In the room, a bald man wearing a thick gold chain around his neck looked at Gu Nian and Lin Chen up and down.
"You were introduced by Liu San?"
"Yes. We need to buy some things. Here is the list."
Brother Ying raised his eyebrows and glanced, then suddenly grinned, showing two big gold teeth: "Brother, ok, it looks quite professional. What do you... do for a living?"
Lin Chen slightly bent his lower lip and showed a handsome and cold smile: "I'm just trying to make a living in this desert."
"I can sell you what you want. I hope you can make friends with me. If necessary in the future, you can come and go often..."
As Brother Ying spoke, he suddenly flicked the long sleeves of his white robe, and the hanging sleeves covered his hands.
He stretched out his hand towards Lin Chen and curled his lips at him: "Since they are all gangsters on the road, they should know the rules, right?"
Lin Chen also extended his hand without expression.
Gu Nian saw that their hands seemed to be held together, but they were obscured by the long white sleeves and could not be seen.
Gu Nian didn't know what Lin Chen had done, which caused a very shocked look on Brother Ying's face.
He seemed to frown in disagreement.
Unexpectedly, Lin Chen refused to relax and work together, which made Brother Ying have a look of defeat on his face. Finally, he nodded with great difficulty and agreed.
"Okay. I promise to sell you the goods at the price you said. But I also said that we will be friends from now on. I can only give you this kind of preferential price once. Next time... I hope you can at least
Increase the price by three points..."
Gu Nian: You are overthinking things like coming and going frequently. Our transaction was originally only this one time.
