Back in the dormitory, Xia Yu washed off the hand cream on her hands, then took out her mobile phone, and used the navigation to check the route to Jiangnan.

Jiangnan is an Internet celebrity bar that suddenly became popular this year.

It is said that it is very romantic and not too noisy. There is also a confession wall inside, which is exquisite and beautiful. Many boys and girls like to take selfies there.

It takes 10 minutes to get there by taxi, and now it is 05:30, so there is plenty of time.

Xia Yu changed into dark clothes, sat at the table and read WeChat while drinking water.

Shen Youtang had already been in the group Aite several times, but he set no reminders, so he didn't see it in time.

Including Xia Yu, there are six people in this group, all of them were roommates in freshman year.

During her freshman year, Xia Yu lived in the same room as everyone else, and she moved out alone in her sophomore year.

The relationship between him and his roommates is also so-so, because their school is a mixed dormitory, and the six people in their dormitory are all from different departments. The sociable guy Shen Youtang has a good relationship with Xia Yu, and the other four people have met him in the cafeteria at most so that they can have a meal at a table.

At this time, the group is bustling with excitement.

[Jiang Yang: @沉佑堂, why is it so sudden?Why are you going to confess?When did you get on well? ? 】

Xia Yu also wanted to know this question.

[Liang Yikang: This girl has been chasing Mr. Shen for N years. 】

[Jiang Yang: When did you chase after him?Why didn't I know that this girl had chased Mr. Shen before? ? 】

[Liang Yikang: You go to the next guard courtyard all day long, how can you know who you are!This girl confessed her love to Mr. Shen in her freshman year, and she kept giving biscuits, chocolates, and mineral water when she was rejected. 】

[Jiang Yang: Grass, it's no wonder you're so persistent.Congratulations brother @沉俊堂]

[Song Qi: Shouldn't that be the girl's confession, Mr. Shen accepts the confession? How did it become Mr. Shen's confession? 】

【Shen Youtang: Boys should of course confess their love^_^】

[Song Qi: Tsk tsk, Boss Shen is really a man! 】

[Liang Yikang: Boss Shen is really a man! 】

[Shen Youtang: Liu'er is here too, Mr. Jiang, pick him up by the way when you come, I have to pick up Ruan Ruan and her girlfriends. 】

There are six dormitories in total, and Xia Yu is the youngest. The others call him Xia Yu and Mr. Xia. Only Shen Youtang, who has a good relationship with him, calls him Liuer and Xiaoliu.

Seeing this, Xia Yu typed: [No, you guys go over first, I still have something to do, I can call over later. 】

[Shen Youtang: @夏玉, do you know the place? 】

【Shen Youtang: [Jiangnan PUB · Positioning]】

[Shen Youtang: Don't make a mistake @夏玉]

[Xia Yu: Yes. 】

After answering, Xia Yu clicked into Shen Youtang's business card to take a look, and quickly exited again.

That's fine, he thought.

Before that, Shen Youtang has always been the No.1 choice in his list.

——If Shen Youtang is gay, then they can try a dewy marriage, and they can just talk about happiness when they retreat.

But due to the relationship between friends and uncertainty about Shen Youtang's sexual orientation, Xia Yu has never revealed her thoughts.

Now that it's finally confirmed, all thoughts dissipate in an instant.

He doesn't want to win over straight men, and he won't target anyone who has a partner.

From now on, he and Shen Youtang are just friends.

Dragon City in January is the coldest time, people are huddled in the house and don't want to go out.

Jiangnan Bar is still in full swing, with waves of people walking in.Many of them are young lovers, arm in arm, forming a large-scale scene of spreading dog food.

Shen Youtang reserved the largest box, the sofa inside was long and wide, and could seat many people. In addition to the karaoke machine, there were also mahjong tables and billiard tables, etc. It was like a small chess and card room.

Jiang Yang took off his coat as soon as he arrived, and looked around: "What about Xia Yu, didn't you say he would come?"

"It's probably on the way. He said he will come, and he will definitely come."

After Shen Youtang finished speaking, he greeted the new batch of people who came in, "Are you all here? Brothers are so interesting!"

The ones who came in were from the first team of the school basketball club.

Shen Youtang also belongs to the basketball club, but he has always been in the second team. He was promoted to the first team not long ago, and his relationship with the first team members is not very deep.

Invitations were sent, but he didn't expect them all to come.Now that everyone is here, he is also very happy. At first glance, they are all 180+ handsome men, so there are so many faces!

Zhou Ding nodded at him: "It should."

Shen Youtang smiled and said, "Sit whatever you want."

Zhou Ding took the basketball team to his seat.

"It's Zhou Ding!"

"Ruan Ruan, your boyfriend's friends are so handsome!"

"Shh, don't talk nonsense, what kind of boyfriend is it?"

"You're shy, you're shy!"

"I brought you to meet friends, doesn't that mean I admit that you are a girlfriend?"

Several girls huddled together and whispered.

A girl sitting in the middle blushed more and more, and her gaze towards Shen Youtang gradually became shy and expectant.

At this moment, Xia Yu pushed open the door and walked in.

He hesitated at the door, frowning slightly, the smell of smoke inside was a bit strong.

"Liu'er!" Shen Youtang came over and put his arms around his shoulders, "Sit next to me. It's a bit choking inside, do you want to wear a mask?"

The girl sitting next to Ruan Ruan said with a smile: "Wow, brother Shen, you are biased, we girls are not treated so well!"

Shen Youtang also laughed: "He has rhinitis, and his nose is more sensitive."

"No, my nose is fine." After speaking, Xia Yu took a bottle of soda from the table.

"Don't you drink?" the girl asked again.

Xia Yu glanced at her: "Don't drink."

"why?"

Xia Yu explained: "I still have to draw when I go back, and my hands will be unsteady when I drink."

"You can draw?" The girl seemed very interested in the fact that he could draw. "You majored in art?"

"Yeah." Xia Yu took a sip of soda water.

Shen Youtang went to greet the newcomers, and the middle seat became vacant.

The girl moved to Xia Yu's side, put her chin on one hand after approaching, and looked up at him: "I have liked drawing since I was a child, but I have no artistic talent at all, so now I am very envious of people who can draw. You must draw Very good, right?"

Xia Yu: "It's okay."

After speaking, he took another big gulp of soda water.

Seeing him drinking water frequently, the girl smiled: "Are you nervous?"

Xia Yu: "...No."

"The Landlord fight here lacks one of the three, just come along!"

Xia Yu stood up: "I'll do it."

He strode over, sat down and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tch, I'm still not rare!"

The female voice was neither high nor low, and under the cover of the singing, many people didn't hear it, but Xia Yu heard it.

He felt his head was a little big.

"Don't know how to deal with girls?"

The voice was low and sounded just above his head.

Xia Yu raised her eyes and saw the boy's protruding Adam's apple first, and then the smiling eyes.

It's Zhou Ding.

one of his subjects.

"Thank you." Xia Yu knew that it was Zhou Ding who gave him the position.

"No need." Zhou Ding raised his chin and signaled, "You call them, and I'll go to the bathroom."

"Ah."

Xia Yu glanced at the people on the card table, feeling a little confused.

The boy sitting across from him shuffled the cards with a displeased face, while the other two secretly smiled.

"Le Gou is fine, don't shuffle, deal the cards quickly."

"Whatever to send, grab it yourself!" The boy named Le Gou put the cards in the middle forcefully.

Xia Yu didn't make a sound.

This time, the person sitting on Xia Yu's right is the landlord.

After a few rounds of cards, the boy named Le Gou and the landlord on Xia Yu's right had only two cards left in their hands.

"To 3." Xia Yu played a card.

Le Gou was so anxious that his eyeballs almost popped up: "Fuck! Are you an undercover agent? There are still several pairs out there! Anything is safer than two! What's more, it's such a small pair!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the landlord sitting on Xia Yu's right hand knocked on the table twice: "No."

Le Gou was dumb for a moment, paused for a few seconds before throwing down the card and said: "...to 7."

They won.

Look at the landlord's cards again, a K and a 2.

Xia Yu's card was right!

Le Gou wiped his face: "Cough, you are lucky, come again."

After that, there were a few more rounds, and Xia Yu's side all won.

As a teammate, he can always play the cards that his teammates want most, and he can suppress the landlord to death.As a landlord, he can always predict what cards the peasants will play, and easily pass the cards in his hand.

"Xia Yu, you will definitely memorize cards! That's awesome!"

Le Gou has really become a dog's leg, and he applauds whatever cards Xia Yu plays—"Excellent!", "Praise!", "You are worthy of it!", and he licks the dog properly.

When Xia Yu was dragged away by Shen Youtang, he was still sighing to Zhou Ding: "Captain Zhou, no wonder Song Ting likes him."

After finishing speaking, he clicked his tongue and recalled the extremely comfortable feeding sign, "I like it too!"

"Fuck! You are an idiot!" Another friend shot him on the head.

"You just said, are you happy playing cards with him? Do you enjoy the cards he feeds?!"

Zhou Ding smiled and took a sip of water.

……

"Everyone stop—everybody stop—"

Shen Youtang's voice came from the microphone, and everyone who was having fun stopped what they were doing.

"what happened?"

"Finally it's time to talk about business."

"It's time to spread dog food, it's time to spread dog food!"

Shen Youtang stood in the middle of the sofa, held Ruan Ruan's hand with his right hand, and smiled at everyone: "Let me introduce to you, this is my girlfriend, Ruan Xin!"

His gaze swept around, and finally landed on Xia Yu.

Xia Yu nodded at him: "Congratulations."

Others also clapped their hands in congratulations.

Shen Youtang smiled, and said again: "I originally wanted to confess in public, but Ruan Ruan was shy, so I confessed in private, brothers who want to watch the excitement, I'm sorry!"

"It's okay, it's okay."

"It's okay, you just do it."

"Kiss one! There must be one kiss!"

Ruan Xin's entire face was almost buried in Shen Youtang's chest.

Shen Youtang hugged her and smiled: "Okay, don't make trouble! Didn't you see anyone shy? Anyway, thank you for coming here in such a cold day. Even though everyone is crazy tonight, you must have fun..."

Suddenly, Xia Yu was patted twice on the shoulder.

He turned his head to look, and found that it was the person he was playing cards with just now, the one named Le Gou.

"Let's add a WeChat account, if we have a chance to play poker together, both online and offline."

Le Gou said in a low voice, "My name is Wu Le."

Xia Yu took out her mobile phone: "I'm Xia Yu."

"I know you."

"Ok?"

"Hey, it's nothing." Wu Le rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment.

The other two who were playing cards also held out their phones.

"I'm Zhao Xiunan."

"Lin Fan."

Xia Yu has joined.

After adding, he raised his head, glanced at Zhou Ding who was standing behind them, and said casually, "Add?"

Zhou Ding froze for a moment: "OK."

After adding WeChat, before Xia Yu could say anything, Shen Youtang, who had delivered his speech, came over and hooked his neck: "What are you talking about?"

Xia Yu said, "It's nothing."

"Why are you so far away from me? Let's go, I'll take you to meet your sister-in-law." After speaking, he pulled Xia Yu away from Zhou Ding and the others.

Xia Yu doesn't know how to communicate with girls, especially with girls who are obviously targeting him, so after being led by Shen Youtang to exchange names, he found another corner and sat down.

He ate two pieces of cake, looked at his phone again, and felt that the time was almost up, so he prepared to leave early.

Shen Youtang wanted to see him off: "Sit for a while, wait for me, and take my car back later."

Xia Yu: "No need, I can do it."

Shen Youtang said again: "Ruan Ruan has a friend who has a boyfriend to pick him up. I have a seat in the car and I will take you home."

"Where is there an empty seat in your car?" A female voice came in, it was the girl who took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Xia Yu at the beginning.She is one of Ruan Xin's best friends, Jiang Yuqian.

Shen Youtang said: "There are three people in my car. Xia Yu, Ruan Ruan, you, don't three people just fit?"

Jiang Yuqian: "I drink too much, I will faint in the car, Ruan Ruan will definitely sit in the back and take care of me."

"Yeah, Xia Yu is the co-pilot, it's just right."

Jiang Yuqian crossed her arms around her chest, her cheeks were flushed with alcohol, she couldn't tell if she was drunk or not, but it was obvious that she was deliberately finding fault and not letting go.

She raised her chin and said, "With a girlfriend, the co-pilot can only be the girlfriend seat, don't you know that?"

Shen Youtang frowned: "Xia Yu is not a girl, so what does it matter?"

Jiang Yuqian looked at Xia Yu: "Of course only girlfriends can sit in the girlfriend seat."

Ruan Xin pulled her aside: "Cissy, stop talking."

He said anxiously to Shen Youtang and Xia Yu again, "Don't listen to Qianqian, she's drunk, I don't care about that. Xia Yu, I don't care if the co-pilot sits for you." She waved her hands while speaking.

Xia Yu frowned lightly, he didn't even want to take Shen Youtang's car, let alone the co-pilot.

He was a little annoyed, and just wanted to leave here immediately: "I..."

"Take my car."

As soon as he opened his mouth, a familiar voice came from beside him.

Xia Yu turned her head and saw Zhou Ding standing not far away, holding a coat in one hand and a car key in the other, and it seemed that he was about to leave.

"You can sit anywhere in my car." Zhou Ding looked at him and added another sentence.

The expressions of the three of Shen Youtang went blank at the same time, only Xia Yu couldn't hold back the corners of his mouth.

He walked towards Zhou Ding while the three of them hesitated to speak, and said softly: "Thank you."
