"What? Landlady, are you and Brother Xiao Yuan celebrating the New Year together? Didn't you go home?" Lu Yunqian was surprised and suspected that she heard wrongly.
"No, your brother Xiao Yuan said that he wanted to be my family, let me live in Yuanjiang Pavilion, and provide for me in my old age." Liu Jiangqing said lazily with a hint of drunkenness, her tone was very different from usual.
.
"Forehead……"
Lu Yunqian was at a loss for words. She just felt that her mind was in a mess and she couldn't figure it out. In my impression, Liu Jiangqing disliked getting along with Xiao Yuan the most. Even if the two of them were together without talking, the temperature around them would drop by three points, as if they would quarrel at any time.
, how come they celebrate the New Year together??
"It's not just Liu Jiangqing and I, Yi Nuo is also there. But he is asleep now and can't hear your voice."
Another familiar and gentle voice came from the phone. There was no doubt that that person was Xiao Yuan. However, his tone sounded slightly different from usual. He seemed very relaxed and not as dignified and dignified as before.
"...Brother Xiao Yuan? Are you drunk?" Lu Yunqian asked tentatively.
"Well, your brother Xiao Yuan drank more than a pound, and I drank about three taels." Liu Jiangqing smiled and leaned on the back of the chair, "Yinuo took a sip, lay down directly, and slept soundly.
"
"What?!" Lu Yunqian exclaimed, and the medical student's instinctive reaction immediately showed, "Brother Xiao Yuan, you drank a pound? Are you okay? Don't drink anymore, you will get alcohol poisoning! It's too dangerous!
!”
"Don't worry, I'm not drunk. I'm more sober than Liu Jiangqing now. He is the one you should worry about." Xiao Yuan said calmly.
"Me? What am I worried about? I don't have to worry..." Liu Jiangqing suddenly felt dizzy as he spoke. Only then did he realize that he was getting drunk. He couldn't even hear the last sentence clearly, and his eyelids gradually became heavy.
Got up.
The two bottles of 52-proof soft high-end liquor that Xiao Yuan chose are wines for settling accounts after autumn. Although the entrance is comfortable and the aroma is soft, the stamina is strong, making people drink a lot without knowing it, and be conquered by the alcohol unknowingly. In the end
Collapsed into a ball of mud. This kind of wine works faster for people who don't drink often. Liu Jiangqing is one of them.
"Look, alas, I have to carry another one on my back." Xiao Yuan picked up the wine bottle and filled the cup again, and drank as if no one else was watching, while Liu Jiangqing struggled in his seat.
"I'm not... not drunk!" Liu Jiangqing tried hard to open his heavy eyelids with his tongue out loud, but his body was slumped on the chair unable to move. In order to show that he was still awake, he suddenly shouted loudly: "Qianxi, let me
Your brother...come here and log in to the computer here, let's have a chat with him. I want...to tell your brother, he is not the worst among us, the worst thing is...yes, it is Xiao Yuan!"
"Ah? Are you looking for my brother?" Lu Yunqian became embarrassed, wondering whether Liu Jiangqing was talking drunkenly or seriously.
"Don't listen to him, he's drunk." Xiao Yuan picked up Liu Jiangqing's cell phone, turned off the speakerphone, and chatted with Lu Yunqian alone.
"Hey... Xiao, Xiao Yuan! Qianqian called me, you, you can't answer it!" Liu Jiangqing managed to say something that was still conscious, then her head tilted and she passed out on the chair.
"Brother Xiao Yuan, what's wrong with the landlord?" Lu Yunqian asked eagerly.
"He's fine. He's already asleep. I'll send him to the dormitory soon," Xiao Yuan said.
"What about you?" Lu Yunqian asked.
"Of course I'm fine. Do you sound like I'm drunk?" Xiao Yuan said very rationally.
"A little bit..." Lu Yunqian's voice weakened and she answered hesitantly.
"Hahaha, maybe I am happy today, so I am not as serious as before." Xiao Yuan smiled.
"Well... that's right! Happy New Year, brother Xiao Yuan! I hope you and your family are in harmony and in good health!" Lu Yunqian suddenly realized that it was almost midnight, and immediately made up for the late New Year's greetings.
"Thank you, and I wish you and your family a Happy New Year." Xiao Yuan said, holding a cigarette in his mouth, and suddenly remembered something. He lit the cigarette while biting the cigarette holder and asked, "How are you going back this time? Your parents asked you to take a break from school.
What happened?"
"Well, it's surprising." Lu Yunqian lowered her head and recalled her father's sincere words that day again. Her heartbeat accelerated for a moment and she didn't know where to start.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yuan took a puff of cigarette and asked quietly.
"...My dad knew about my playing in the game. Game reporter Zhou Xun told him. Zhou Xun also made a memorandum of my brother's events and gave it to my dad, filling in the missing gap between my dad and my brother.
A memory. My father said that he regretted not supporting his brother in the competition before, so he will fully support my competition this time, and he will no longer have to hide things about the team from him." Lu Yunqian said it in one breath, feeling excited for a long time.
Still can't calm down and feel incredible.
"Congratulations, your brother would be very happy if he knew this news. Your family is very good, cherish them." Xiao Yuan said.
"Well...brother should have known about it, but..." Lu Yunqian turned her head and glanced at the laptop on the table. The Hengdao Yijian in the game was still standing expressionless, without any reaction.
"But what?" Xiao Yuan noticed the faint sadness in her voice and asked.
"It's okay, it's nothing!" Lu Yunqian suddenly cheered up, "Ah, my parents called me. We are going out to watch the fireworks. Goodbye, Brother Xiao Yuan! Oh, by the way, the landlord is asking you to take care of me!"
"Hehehe, okay, I wish you a good time!"
Xiao Yuan hung up the phone and looked back at Yi Nuo who was lying on the table and Liu Jiangqing who was slumped in a chair. The two of them were obviously in a deep sleep. Yi Nuo even snored, but it was obvious that he couldn't.
He woke up. He shook his head helplessly, threw the half-smoked cigarette into an empty wine bottle piled with cigarette butts, picked up Ino and walked out of the restaurant.
Boom! Bang!
Boom boom boom!!
Deafening bursts of firecrackers suddenly came from a community not far away, proving that midnight was here and the new year had officially arrived. Although S City had issued a notice prohibiting the setting off of firecrackers, it still couldn't stop people from wanting to celebrate the New Year.
Firecrackers were set off to express celebration. The sound of firecrackers continued one after another, and the momentum became louder and louder. Xiao Yuan put Liu Jiangqing on the bed in room 304, took off his shoes, socks and outerwear like an elder brother, then covered him with the quilt and plugged in his mobile phone.
I connected the charging cable and set the alarm for 8:30 tomorrow morning.
After hearing the sound of firecrackers outside, Xiao Yuan stood in front of the window for a while, then suddenly turned around, left 304, and walked downstairs.
The wind was chilly on the street, but Xiao Yuan, who had drunk a lot of wine, did not feel the cold. He just walked step by step on the deserted street, looking up at the fireworks flying in the sky from time to time. His mind was a little confused, Liu Jiang
The words that Qing yelled out randomly after drinking kept lingering in my heart. I wanted to ignore them, but I couldn't get rid of them.
"...I want to tell your brother, he is not the worst among us, the worst is... yes, it is Xiao Yuan!"
——Am I miserable?
Xiao Yuan suddenly sneered. The smile was so casual that even he was startled. It was as if the smile was from another self, out of control but coming from his true heart.
