detour

As usual, the gathering was a gathering of four people, besides Xu You and Huang Haitao, there were also Zhao Dong and Li Xiaowu.Li Xiaowu is Xu You's college classmate, and went to marine engineering after graduation.Zhao Dong was met by Xu You and Huang Haitao a few years ago in a joint project of Sanjian. At that time, Zhao Dong was the technical representative of the factory. They became the iron buddies.Later, Zhao Dong resigned and came to Daocheng, where he is now working as a technical director in a joint venture company.

As usual, the meeting place is in Huang Haitao's bar. Huang Haitao has always adhered to the theory of "don't let the rich water flow to outsiders' fields", but the gatherings of Fan Ge are always held at the "Conqueror". Moreover, Huang Haitao is still stingy, and he only gives eight at most when paying the bill. fold.A few people always complained that Huang Haitao was stingy, saying that he could get [-]% off wherever they were, but they would still come to him when they wanted to drink.

There are usually many people on weekends, Huang Haitao left the business to his partner, Lao Wu, and huddled in the soft seat by the window to drink with his buddies.Old Wu Quan's name is Wu Hao. He is a taciturn man with a beard and a beard. He looks like a pharmacist with a rigid personality while bartending with his head down. He is not at all free and easy as a bartender should be.

Xu You looked at Lao Wu shaking the shaker behind the bar from a distance, with an expression of disbelief on his face, "Why do you think such a person wants to open a bar?"

Huang Haitao curled his lips, "Lin Zhi said that this personality trait has a scientific name, it's called Mensao."

Lin Zhi is Wu Hao's girlfriend and the piano teacher at the Children's Palace.Not to mention Xu You, even Huang Haitao and the others found this inconceivable.

Li Xiaowu held up his cup and yawned, with a bored expression on his face, "Let's call Lin Zhi and Zhao Xiaoqi next time. With the girls around, the atmosphere can be a little more lively. The four elders sit down and drink together... I You might as well go home and sleep."

Just as Xu You gave him a contemptuous look, Huang Haitao said: "Xiaoqi is not willing to drink with you, she said, you guys, only Xu You looks a little more delicious, but unfortunately it's still a G , boring."

"What does it mean to be more delicious?" Xu You was not happy, "I am handsome, full of masculinity, is..."

Xu You's compliments to him were interrupted by his brothers using sofa cushions. Before he could fight back, Huang Haitao lowered his head and moved his face sideways to signal him to look back, "Fuck, the road to Yuanjia is narrow."

Xu You looked in the direction he indicated, and saw Su Chengze wearing a silver shirt, walking in with a few men talking and laughing.Xu You subconsciously scanned around him, and sure enough, Zhuang Shaodong was there.He was taller than the people around him, and he was wearing a black shirt, which made his chiseled face stand out.

Xu You couldn't help feeling in a daze.Just a few years ago, Xu You felt that there was no similarity between him and his uncle Zhuang Shijie.Zhuang Shaodong's brows and eyes are always showing a bit of arrogance and domineering, no matter who he sees, his face is full of impatience.But Zhuang Shijie is just the opposite, even when talking to the nanny, he still has a warm smile, and his gestures are full of stability and elegance like an old-fashioned gentleman.However, just now, when the flickering lights of the bar hit his face, Xu You suddenly felt a sense of deja vu.

Xu You was Zhuang Shijie whom he met at the bar.It was the first time he entered a bar, and he ordered a glass of dark beer for himself tremblingly. Before he could take a sip, he was hugged by a drunk from behind.Zhuang Shijie appeared in front of him at the moment when he was most panicked, with a handsome face and warm eyes.Xu You still feels that she fell in love with Zhuang Shijie the first time she saw him.

Zhuang Shijie was his first man.The first love, the first night, the first abandonment... All the major ritual events during Xu You's growth were inseparable from this man.For Xu You, Zhuang Shijie was like a brand, and also the deepest scar in Xu You's life.

Xu You touched the cigarette case from the coffee table, but when she squeezed it, it was empty, and she couldn't help feeling a little upset.

"This little bastard is really proud of himself, let's see if I can kill him today!" Huang Haitao stared at Su Chengze with a smirk on his face, "I'll find a duckling to sit on his lap, take a photo and send it to his mistress."

Xu You smiled wryly, "His concubine is the one in the black shirt."

"Zhuang Shaodong?" Huang Haitao was really stunned, "Is he Zhuang Shaodong?"

Li Xiaowu and Zhao Dong looked at each other, and chose to remain silent.

Xu You nodded, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "It's Zhuang Shaodong. Xiao Wu still remembers him?"

Li Xiaowu lived in the same dormitory with Xu You back then, and the two of them were very close at that time, so Xu You's affairs were naturally clearer than the two people next to him.Hearing his question, he frowned and nodded, "It's not quite like that time."

"The appearance may have changed," Xu You shook his head, "the inside is still the same. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been working on the project for two months, and I would be squeezed out by Su Chengze, who is half a bottle of vinegar. Don't you know, he still expects to let me Compensate him for breaking the contract."

Huang Haitao scolded: "It's really fucking shameless."

Zhao Dong didn't know much about the inside story, but he could see that everyone's interest was affected, so he suggested another place, "I just got a membership card for the Black Diamond Club, let's go drink somewhere."

Li Xiaowu didn't care, but Huang Haitao was not happy, "Why should I hide from my territory?"

Xu You dropped the cup and stood up. Before she could speak, she felt two arms wrap around her back and hugged him into her arms.Xu You's body froze slightly, and she laughed softly when she heard the voice of the man behind her, "Xu Zi, you have been hiding from me for a long time, why are you willing to come here today?"

Xu You lowered his eyelids, smiled inexplicably, then relaxed his body and leaned back lazily.

His reaction obviously surprised the man behind him, and his voice became more gentle, "Let's have a drink together. We haven't seen each other for almost two months."

Xu You glanced sideways at the man behind him. This man was taller than him, and when looking at him, he raised his head slightly, which made Xu You feel a little uncomfortable.This person is Wu Bin, a doctor, we have known each other for more than half a year, and he is a relatively stable bed partner.But more than two months ago, Xu You knew that he had someone else, so he consciously broke off contact.It looks like the two haven't seen each other for a while.

Xu You has a lot of problems. He has a tricky personality and no integrity. The people around him always change frequently.He takes great care of his partner who is in a relationship, but once he breaks up, he doesn't leave any room for it.Wu Bin had contacted him, so Xu You naturally knew what he meant.However, Xu You really can't accept the fact that a partner in a relationship cheats on others.

Wu Bin also understood in his heart, hugged him for a while and then let go, "Shall I see you off?"

Xu You nodded.Su Chengze and Zhuang Shaodong are all here, and it is obvious that the party tonight cannot go on.Xu You greeted his brothers and followed Wu Bin out.When he walked to the door, Xu You looked back in a strange manner, and his eyes met a person without warning.

It's Zhuang Shaodong.

I don't know why, even though half a bar away, the light is not very bright, but Xu You can see clearly Zhuang Shaodong's hand on Su Chengze's shoulder and a silver bracelet protruding from his wrist.

Zhuang Shaodong's slightly drunk eyes were looking at Xu You from a distance with a hint of disdain.Xu You knew that he had always looked down on him. When he was by Zhuang Shijie's side, Zhuang Shaodong believed that he was trying to get ahead. After all these years, Xu You didn't expect him to suddenly change his opinion of himself.However, such blunt contempt still gave Xu You the urge to beat someone up.

Looking at it from this angle, the hostility in Zhuang Shaodong's eyes was as sharp as a knife, piercing through the passing years in an instant, and overlapped with the arrogant and willful young man deep in his memory.

Zhuang Shijie can forgive his family members generously, but Xu You can't.Xu You clearly remembered what Zhuang Shaodong had said and what he had done.

Sooner or later it will be doubled back.

When she crossed the threshold with one foot, Xu You couldn't hold back, turned around and extended a middle finger to the sharp-eyed man in the corner of the bar.
