Embrace the light

"Heng, how many glasses of Yao wine do you make in a night? Will your arms be sore?"

Seeing that Heng had no guests for the time being, Yi An started talking to Heng again.

"A few hundred cups, it's not sour."

"Aside from 'Fantasy Interstellar', is there any other delicious Yaojiu with a lower alcohol content that you would recommend me?" Ian continued to ask.

Heng took Ian's cell phone, chose the other two Yao wines on the wine list, and motioned to Ian to have a look.

Ian took back the mobile phone from Heng, and looked at the pictures and text introductions of the two Yao wines.

"Is this two strong drinks? Look at the label next to it."

"You can change the main ingredients, the taste is very similar, but the degree is extremely low."

"Okay, then next time I come here, can you make me a cup of 'Song Luo Wan Xiang'? Try a new variety every time."

"it is good."

Linda, who was drinking a glass of Yao wine with her girlfriend, suddenly asked Heng, "Annand, what is your relationship with this handsome boy?"

Heng turned his gaze to Linda, "The relationship you thought it was."

"Hey, I have a bad temper, are you playing with me?" Linda put the wine glass heavily on the bar and stood up, "Then you made it clear before, and let me stay here for you in vain." Thinking about it at night."

Ian didn't understand Linda's sudden temper. He looked at Heng, but Heng signaled him to continue drinking and eating snacks with his eyes.

"Haha, I'm dying of laughter." Vera burst out laughing suddenly, "Let you be here everywhere, unexpectedly, it turns out to be a man who will never be available."

Linda still wanted to find Heng Li, but another customer came to place an order. She didn't want to let others see the joke, so she could only sit back in her original seat and sulk.

Seeing Ian sneaking glances at her again, Linda fortunately turned to Ian and sat down, scrutinizing her "rival in love" from top to bottom.

"Do you all like this cute and delicate style now? There is no market for a hot girl like me?" Linda rubbed her chin, wondering to herself.

Vera answered from behind her, "I've said it all, everyone is different. For things like fate, just let it happen, why force it. After all, you really have to change to a new target now."

Linda was unconvinced, "How can I admit defeat so quickly? I haven't used half of my strength yet."

Vera asked with a smile, "Otherwise, what else can you do?"

Linda leaned back and leaned her head on Vera's shoulder, "Say, how about I change my personality?"

Not only did Vera want to spray wine, but Ian also almost choked on the preserved fruit in his mouth.

"Hey, sisters, what's the matter? For a man, to do this?"

Linda spread her hands and shrugged, "It's just a joke. However, I really don't give up. Why should I be restricted by gender and lose without fighting."

Linda moved closer to Ian, and Ian looked suspiciously at her face that was getting closer and closer.

"Hi, I'm Linda, what should I call you?" Linda smiled politely and held out her hand to Ian.

"I'm Ian." Ian touched Linda's finger lightly, then silently moved his body to the other side.

"Ian, when did you and Heng start dating?"

Ian looked at Heng, and Heng motioned for him to answer, so he said, "At the end of May."

"Then who of you confessed first?"

"Confession?" Ian realized instantly, Heng was using himself as a shield, he was silent for a few seconds pretending to recall, and then replied: "It's me."

Linda nodded, "I guess so. But I'm really curious, how did you catch him?"

Ian smiled "shyly", "It's just lucky."

"I don't like to hear that." Linda sighed, "Why am I not as lucky as you?"

Vera next to him interjected and asked, "Then you guys have already slept?"

I also want to know that this "sleep" is not the other "sleep", Ian's face is really flushed this time, he looks at Heng at a loss and doesn't know how to answer, hoping to be rescued by Heng.

"Crossing the line, both of you."

Heng's voice and eyes were very indifferent, Linda and Vera had no choice but to shut up wisely.

"Heng, I'll go down to find Nuonuo." The Yaojiu in the cup has already been drunk, and Ian doesn't want to stay here any longer and be pestered by the two girls' gossip.

"Ah."

When Ian arrived at the dance floor area, he found that it was really hard to find someone.It can be said that it is a "dance of demons." The colorful lights made him dizzy, and he couldn't see the faces of the dancers on the dance floor.

So he had to wait until the end of the song, and taking advantage of the silence between changing songs, Ian hurriedly dialed Mino's cell phone to get in touch with Mino and Gavin who were having fun.

"An'an, here."

Mino noticed Ian's figure not far away, and waved to him.

Mino and Gavin were resting on the seats, and Ian walked up to them and sat down too.

"Did you have fun?" Ian asked the two of them.

"Happy, revived with full blood!" Mino replied.

"Me too." Gavin said excitedly, "Before I came here alone, just drinking and drinking, I didn't expect to be so happy when dancing with someone to accompany me."

Ian agrees with this.Although many things can be done by one person, two people will be more motivated and happier.

"Nonuo!" Ian suddenly called Mino in a panic, "Where did Zixing and Ziyue go?"

Mino looked at his arm, stunned for a moment.

"Er...before the dance, they were still there..."

Gavin was puzzled, "Is something missing?"

Mino replied, "It's two starfish..."

Gavin was even more puzzled, "You took two starfish with you when you went out? Are they your pets?"

"Also... yeah."

"Will they get hurt?" This was what Ian was most worried about.

But Mino couldn't give an answer.He seldom did anything wrong, but today he went crazy and forgot himself to have fun, and he did something stupid, and he was very annoyed.

"They didn't contact me, I don't know." Mino said this to Ian quietly, and it was not convenient for Gavin to hear.

"Don't worry." Gavin reassured the two, "I'll go find the manager here and ask him to suspend the music playing in the dance floor area first, and send a notice of the missing radio."

"Okay, thank you, Gavin." Mino thanked.

After Gavin left, the two could talk as usual.

"Nonuo, have you learned how to actively communicate with them?"

Mino was in a dilemma, "I've been too busy recently, I only learned a little bit, I can only try if I can succeed."

Mino tried his best to calm himself down, sat upright on the seat, and then closed his eyes, temporarily abandoning the noise outside and the interference of negative emotions in his heart.

[Zixing, Ziyue, Zixing, Ziyue, where are you?can you hear me 】

To Mino's surprise, Zixing and Ziyue replied to him immediately.

[[Your Highness, we can hear you. ]]

【where are you? 】

[It's in the viewing cylinder in the Sanzai area. ] Ziyue's voice was as usual, even a little leisurely, [His Royal Highness, please enjoy yourself and leave us alone. ]

"I found it, An'an. Listening to the sound, they should be fine. It is said that they are in the viewing tank in the Sanzai area."

Now that he learned of the whereabouts of Zixing and Ziyue, Mino quickly contacted Gavin.

Gavin is negotiating with the manager, and the manager is preparing to stop the dance music notification.After hearing Mino's news, Gavin quickly explained the latest situation to the manager, thanked him and expressed his apology.

"Why did you two come here?" Mino asked standing by the tank.

Zixing walked among the water plants at the bottom of the tank, [Your Highness, you danced too violently, we can't keep our bodies stable, and Ziyue said that shaking his head is too dizzy, we don't want to disturb His Highness's elegant mood, so we left first Here we go. ]

Mino touched his nose and said sorry, "I'm sorry, I got a little crazy after drinking some wine, and I forgot that you are on my wrist."

[It's okay, Your Highness. ] Ziyue said generously, [You just have to have fun, Zixing and I will take care of ourselves.We are very powerful subordinates and will not cause trouble to the master. ]

Hearing this, Mino wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.

"Are you really all right? Didn't you get stepped on or squeezed?"

[No, Your Highness, don't look at our usual slowness, in fact, our speed is very fast.Although it is not as good as the master, it is several times faster than the island. ]

Mino didn't understand the crawling or swimming speed of sea turtles, but in his cognition, "turtle speed" and "turtle speed" were particularly slow descriptions.

Mino recounted his conversation with Zixing and Ziyue to Ian, and Ian nodded, completely relieved.

He stretched out his right hand and played with Ziyue's fingers through the glass.

Gavin found two people beside the viewing tank, "It's good if you find them, are they not injured?"

"No." Mino thanked again, "Thank you, Gavin, for letting you panic and worry together."

"It doesn't matter. Are we friends? It's rare to meet someone who is in perfect harmony with me. It's good for everyone to socialize freely, and there is no need to be restrained and polite."

"Okay. Shall we go back and play for a while?"

"Let's go."

The three returned to the scattered seats by the dance floor, waiting for the opening of the next dance music.

The songs in the dance floor area are all very passionate, and the atmosphere in the arena is also high enough, so that Ian, who was originally a little cautious, was also infected. His movements were no longer so rigid, and he gradually became relaxed and flexible.

The lights on the dance floor were flickering, and Ian could only catch the expressions of Heng and Gavin occasionally. They were more playful than Ian, with many changes in body movements and richer expressions.

Mino took Ian's hand and led him to the middle of the dance floor.Ian imitated Mino's movements, swaying in time and happy at the same frequency.

After the three of them played in the dance floor area for nearly half an hour, Ian took the lead to leave the stage and sat down in the scattered seats to rest.

Mino and Gavin were full of energy, and they were still dancing and dancing.The seat Ian chose was a little farther away from the dance floor area, but the position was higher, so he could have a panoramic view of the scene on the dance floor.

As the lights flickered, Ian could still see Mino and Gavin dancing happily.

"Good evening, are you here alone?"

Ian turned his head when he heard the sound. It was a girl in a floral dress with a pure and beautiful appearance.

"I came with friends."

The girl smiled and said, "Me too."

The girl didn't sit down next to Ian, but stood with a slightly bent waist and continued, "I'm sorry to bother you, that's right, I'm here with my classmates, we're playing Truth or Dare, I want to The completed big adventure is to choose a strange little brother and invite him to drink a glass of Yao wine."

Truth or Dare is a very popular group game among college students, and Ian played it many times when he was in school.

Ian understood, "I'm sorry, I don't drink well, can you invite someone else to cooperate with you to complete the game?"

The girl didn't force it, "It's not allowed to change people, but this is just a game, if you don't complete it, it's just a small punishment. It's a pleasure to meet you today, and I wish you a good time."

This girl was very gentle and polite from the moment she appeared. Seeing that she was about to turn around and leave, Ian couldn't help asking, "If the task is not completed, what is the punishment?"

The girl stopped in her tracks and replied: "Well, the punishment is to kiss a member of the opposite sex in the game."

"So, is there one of these people you like?"

The girl shook her head, "He's not here. He doesn't like to set foot in this kind of party."

Although it's an age of enlightenment and openness, Ian still feels it's inappropriate to ask a girl to kiss someone she doesn't like.After thinking for a few seconds, he said to the girl: "Let me help you complete the task, but can you choose me a glass of Yao wine with low alcohol content?"

The girl nodded and thanked: "Thank you, the type of Yaojiu is not stipulated in the task, I will buy a glass of low-alcohol wine later."

"Ok."

Ian got up and followed the girl to her companion's seat not far away.

"Selena, you are very good at picking, you pick a handsome guy right away."

Ian thought that he should be a few years older than them, and being called a "little handsome guy" by his schoolgirl felt a bit against the law.

"Yeah, Yuanyuan, you know, my vision has always been good." After Selena responded to Yuanyuan, she asked Ian to sit down, "Please wait for me here for a few minutes, I'll buy a new glass of Yaojiu and come back. "

Yuanyuan stopped her, "Hey, don't waste it, isn't the wine ready?"

Selena explained: "This friend doesn't drink very well. The 'Love in the Abyss' you bought before is too strong, he is not suitable."

The boy sitting across from Selena looked at Ian, "Isn't it? What's 'too strong' for 'Love in the Abyss'? We've thoughtfully selected the moderate Yao wine. If you can't drink it, why do you want it?" come over?"

Selena put back her smile, "It's just a game, it's already friendly if others are willing to cooperate, so don't pick on me here. The rules of the game don't specify the type of wine. If I say change it, then change it."

A girl next to Selena chimed in and said, "Yes, playing games is meant for entertainment, so why bother making everyone unhappy by being so serious. So, Selena, sit here and accompany your new friends, and I'll buy them." Cup 'Wind by Leaf Dance' over here."

Wind Chasing Leaf Dance is a low-alcohol Yao wine. Ian has seen it on the wine list and has some impressions.

Selena nodded, and her girlfriend went to the bar.Selena sat down beside Ian, "Don't know your name yet?"

"Ian."

"Hi, Ian. I'm Selena."

"Hello, Ian. I'm Deirsa." Deirsa greeted Heng proactively.

She is a dark-skinned, long-haired girl with a full smile and a very sunny and cheerful look.

"Hello, Selena, Deirsa."

While waiting for Selena's girlfriend to come back from buying Yaojiu, Selena introduced her friends to Ian one by one, and Ian learned that the girl who just went to buy Yaojiu was called You Qingyu.

You Qingyu soon came back with a glass of "Wind Chasing Leaf Dance", and she put the glass on the table in front of Ian, "Don't worry, handsome boy, if this glass of wine can still make you drunk, then I will drink it tonight." I will take you home."

"Thank you." Ian smiled back, but he thought he wouldn't get drunk if he counted such a low amount of Yaojiu.

His drinking capacity should not be so bad, Ian thought.

Ian finished his glass of Yaojiu wine in one gulp, and then turned the glass upside down to show everyone.

"The task is complete!" You Qingyu raised her hands and cheered.

Selena's expression gradually eased back, she smiled and thanked Ian again.

"You're welcome."

Dierza sent an invitation to Ian, "Ian, do you want to play games with us?"

Ian shook his head, "Thank you, but it still doesn't work, I'm going to meet up with my friends."

During this period, the dance music changed a few more, and Mino should also take a break.

"Okay, then I wish you a pleasant night." You Qingyu said.

"Thank you, and I wish you all a good time."

Ian got up and went back to his original seat. As expected, Mino and Gavin were already sitting there.

"Have you met any new friends?" Mino asked Ian after he sat down.

He had just seen Ian sitting among a group of young men and women.

"They were playing truth or dare, and I was invited to complete the mission together."

Gavin asked curiously, "What mission?"

"Just a glass of wine."

Hearing this, Mino hurriedly held Ian's face and took a closer look. His skin was still slightly hot and his cheeks were still flushed, but it was not much different from when he was dancing.

"What are you drinking?"

"The wind dances by the leaves."

Mino felt relieved, "That's okay, the degree is not high."

Gavin also said: "One cup of 'Wind by the Leaf Dance' is not bad, I guess after drinking ten cups, the face will not change."

So the topic turned to "drinking capacity" again, and Mino began to discuss with Gavin about their past drinking records, and of course the drunk embarrassment.

Ian sat quietly, listening to them tell their past stories.

At the beginning, he was still clear-headed and listened with gusto, but later he felt a little dizzy and drowsy gradually.

"Nonuo, do you still want to play disco? I want to go upstairs to find Heng."

"Let's go upstairs together, I've had enough jumping, go upstairs to the entertainment room to play."

Gavin agreed with Mino, "Me too, let's go upstairs together."

After going up to the second floor, Mino and Gavin went to the entertainment room to continue their hilarity, while Ian expressed that he wanted to sit with Heng, so the three of them divided it into two ends.

It's midnight, the busiest time in the bar.

Ian came to the bar where Heng was, but there were customers on the bar chairs, so Ian had to choose a nearby open seat to sit down.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, the bar chairs next to the bar were still full, and no one left.

Heng had spotted Ian as soon as he approached, but he was really busy at the moment, so he didn't have time to talk to Ian with his clone, and he didn't even have a chance to make eye contact.

After waiting for more than 20 minutes, seeing that two of the customers were finally leaving, Ian couldn't help being happy, and wanted to seize the opportunity to sit on the bar chair.

But I don't know whether it was sleepiness hindering him or something, his movements turned out to be very slow, and he had stood up consciously, but his body was still lagging behind.

Ian realized belatedly that he seemed...drunk again...

He really couldn't laugh or cry, if Gavin knew about it, he would definitely make fun of him.Drunk after two cups VS not drunk after ten cups, complete defeat.

Ian moved slowly, walked to the empty seat next to the bar without a bar chair, put his arms on the bar, and called: "Heng."

After finishing the glass of Yao wine in his hand and handing it to the guests, Heng had time to look at this guy who was looking at him in a daze.

"So sleepy." Seeing that Heng finally stopped to look at himself, Yi An said to him, "I may be a little drunk, or too sleepy, my head is dizzy, and my body is not out of control."

Seeing that Ian was indeed trembling while lying on his stomach, Heng immediately came out of the bar and led Ian to the lounge behind the bar.

Ian was a little shaky when he walked, Heng had no choice but to hold his waist with his hands to help him maintain his balance, and led him into the lounge.

In the lounge, each bartender has a fixed soft chair for rest.

Heng half-supported and half-embraced Ian to his soft chair, "You lean here and take a rest."

Ian reached out to touch the armrest of the soft chair, then looked at Heng, "Can this one be moved out? I want to see Heng."

"No." Heng adjusted the angle of the chair back for Ian so that he could sit more comfortably.

"Then I don't want to sit here, let's go out, I want to watch Heng."

At this moment, Ian's mobile phone rang, and Heng took it out to check, it was Mino.

"An'an, where are you? I came here, but I didn't see you or Heng."

"He's drunk. This side of my lounge, you wait near the bar and find two adjacent empty bar chairs."

"Ah? Why is An An drunk? Are you drinking again?"

"I'll see you later." After Heng finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

And Yi An stared blankly at Heng the whole time, as if he was watching, but also seemed to be wandering.
