As for what Yang Chen said, Shen Yue was angry because of her temporary boyfriend who was always late. She was distracted and didn't listen clearly enough. The main reason was that Yang Chen had a bossy attitude when he called, which surprised her. How could an ordinary boy from a small city have such an aura?
Could it be that he is a great man who pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger?
Yang Chen turned around and saw Shen Yue looking at him blankly. He couldn't help but frown, and then smiled politely, bypassing Shen Yue and going downstairs.
Shen Yue turned around and still stared blankly at the back of the person who was going away, shaking her head with a weird expression. She obviously didn't want to believe that Yang Chen was some kind of invisible young man who pretended to be a pig and eat the tiger. If a man pretends to be a superior person, it probably means that the innocence and childishness will still be with you.
Shen Yue, who is shrewd in playing tricks on men with reality, has long lost her innocence and childishness, so she simply regarded the few words she just heard as hallucinations, didn't think much about it, and went into her room to change clothes.
At nearly one o'clock at noon, Shen Yue's boyfriend, who was highly employed in the provincial inspection office, arrived belatedly. He was five years older than Shen Yue. The 27-year-old deputy division inspector was considered young and promising. It was said that he had Yang Chen was not surprised by this point, as he was an awesome father of a provincial standing committee member. If he were an ordinary person, it would probably take him half a lifetime to go from being a clerk to a full-time clerk.
This is indeed an era of hard work.
Yang Chen, who came from a humble background, was filled with emotion.
"My boyfriend, Wang Guoxuan, has been met by several sisters. He has a wide range of official connections. In the future, if anyone has any difficulties, they will come to Guoxuan. He dare not not help." Shen Yue, who was very handsome, held her arm like most civil servants. The well-dressed boyfriend seems to be introducing himself, but in fact he is showing off.
The relatively elegant Wang Guoxuan nodded and smiled reservedly. Even when facing a group of rich second-generation people with extraordinary family backgrounds, he still showed a sense of superiority in officialdom.
"Nalan Tongtong, my best friend."
Shen Yue introduced Nalan Tongtong with a charming smile, Wang Guoxuan smiled politely, and Yang Chen, who was behind Xiao Nizi, clearly noticed that Wang's eyes froze for a moment, and deep in his eyes, there was a flash of heat, which was well concealed. , except for Yang Chen, no one else noticed.
Yang Chen secretly sneered, among these rich second-generation officials, only Wang Guoxuan was worthy of his attention.
"This is my boyfriend, Yang Chen from Ningda University." Nalan Tongtong once again introduced Yang Chen in a high-profile manner, for fear of missing someone.
"Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you." Wang Guoxuan smiled and patted Yang Chen's shoulder, making him very enthusiastic. In fact, the smile was not natural. Later, when the guy heard Wan Wan complain, he knew that Yang Chen came to Xijing to study at university from a small place. Ordinary students couldn't help but take a few more glances at Yang Chen who was playing checkers with Nalan Tongtong in a secluded corner. The curiosity and conciliatory enthusiasm just now were no longer in his eyes, and there was a hint of inexplicable coldness in his eyes.
Buffet barbecue at noon.
Probably tired of eating the three delicacies and seafood, these young masters and their daughters were in high spirits, tossing around in the courtyard until four o'clock in the afternoon, and began to think about how to have fun in the evening.
In the end, everyone agreed to Liu Wan's suggestion and went to Li Palace to spend time and wine.
Under Nalan Tongtong's half-coquettish, half-begging invitation, Yang Chen had no choice but to continue hanging out with these young masters and daughters. Li Palace, a top club in Xijing that integrates catering, bathing, leisure and entertainment, failed to have a dinner for twenty or thirty people. Tens of thousands of yuan, and then I chose a VIP private room to sing karaoke. All kinds of foreign wines were placed on two coffee tables. The karaoke manager was very happy. She would get at least two to three thousand yuan in commission from these drinks.
A group of girls, including Nalan Tongtong, accompanied Liu Wan to blow out the candles symbolizing her twenty-first birthday on the three-tiered cake, and then sang Happy Birthday. Then the Maiba guys took turns singing, while Yang Chen sat silently in the corner, unlike Liu Wan.
The golf instructor boyfriend tried every means to get close to these rich people, unlike Wang Guoxuan who acted aloof and was lukewarm.
He is more like an outsider, watching these young masters and their daughters tossing around like a show.
I don’t know who first suggested that Yang Chen sing, and there was a chorus of agreement. Then people paid attention to the slightly lonely man in the corner. It was not that most people wanted to hear his singing, but that they wanted him to make a fool of himself.
"You don't have to sing if you don't want to. If they force you to do it, I will fall out with them."
Nalan Tongtongnui, who had been chatting with her best friend for a long time, came over and whispered softly. Yang Chen smiled faintly, stood up, picked up the microphone, and chose a song.
How many times have I fallen on the road?
How many times have I broken my wings?
Now I no longer feel hesitant.
I want to transcend this ordinary life.
I want a life in full bloom.
It's like flying in the vast sky.
It's like walking through the endless wilderness.
Have the power to break away from everything.
The song of vicissitudes of life echoed with the heart-touching rhythm, and people slowly focused their attention on Yang Chen. His majestic figure and resolute and handsome face revealed a manly temperament that has been baptized by wind and rain.
This is a man with a story.
Girls with keen judgment mostly feel this way.
Nalan Tongtong couldn't help but shed tears in her beautiful eyes. She had a feeling that this song "Blooming Life" was a portrayal of Yang Chen's life in these years.
After Yang Chen finished singing, he put down the microphone, lit a cigarette, and walked out of the private room, leaving these young masters and rich men dumbfounded. Nalan Tongtong hurriedly chased them out.
"Pretending!" Liu Wan muttered with disdain.
A group of men and women who had fallen silent finally managed to smile a little complicatedly.
There was a small musical fountain in front of the Li Palace Club. Yang Chen stopped in front of the fountain and smoked a cigarette. Nalan Tongtong slowly approached, bit her lips, put her arm around Yang Chen's waist from behind, and gently pressed against her, saying softly:
"Are you angry? I won't take you to join in this kind of fun anymore. To be honest, I feel tired, fake and bored a lot of the time when I'm with these foxy friends."
Yang Chen shook his head and said slowly: "No, it's just your friends who want to make me angry. It's difficult. I just thought of some things I have experienced in the past."
Nalan Tongtong nodded thoughtfully, remained silent for a moment and asked, "Can you tell me about your past?"
Yang Chen turned around and looked at the cute girl who was still hugging him. He smiled and shook his head. A real man is used to bearing the suffering and hardship in his heart alone.
"It's time for me to go back." Yang Chen said quietly.
"Then I'll drive you off." Nalan Tongtong said reluctantly.
"It's my best friend's birthday, you should stay. It's not good to focus on sex over friends." Yang Chen joked and smiled, gently pushed Nalan Tongtong away, said goodbye, and left alone.
Nalan Tongtong stared blankly at the bastard who rejected her kindness, until the majestic figure completely blended into the night, she suddenly came back to reality, then made a big face, and shouted loudly: "I, Nalan Tongtong, will focus on sex over friends from now on.
