After flirting with a rival

Quiet little bar in the middle of nowhere.

Shen Xingchi sat on the swivel chair at the front bar, holding a half cup of tequila in his hand, and sipped it lightly.

The bartender stood far away and silently wiped the glasses, with a few guests sitting on the round table behind him.A slow-paced lyrical English song ran through the audience.Shen Xingchi listened quietly, and felt a little touched by it.

Compared with the anxiety of the previous few days and the daze in the morning, he is very relaxed now.

Being able to make a decision is really soothing.

When the music is served as a drink, before you know it, a glass of wine will soon bottom out.

Shen Xingchi guessed that it was about the same time, and was going to go home and get a good night's sleep.

"Isn't this Young Master Shen? Why do you have the leisure to come to such a place?"

The croaking sound broke the harmonious environment, Shen Xingchi frowned unavoidably, and turned his head sideways.

Xiao Ye, who was very fancy, appeared out of nowhere, and the pendant on her neck and the ring on her hand shone brightly under the light.He slouched to the side and didn't intend to order a drink. It seemed that he just wanted to get close to Shen Xingchi.

The bartender took a look, left voluntarily, and went to the rear to help.

"Have a single party?" Shen Xingchi said the answer tentatively, and was amused by the reason, "I just randomly chose a family to come in and sit."

He told a little lie.

In fact, this bar was the place where Gu Wan announced that she was going to get married.

Xiaoye didn't understand the first sentence, and seemed to have a half-knowledge of the second sentence, so she replied bluntly: "Then you are really casual, what's so interesting about this place. There is no sound, as if someone is dead."

Shen Xingchi didn't deny it, but asked instead, "What are you doing here?"

Xiaoye: "Hey, don't mention it. I brought two children over to play, and I reported the location carefully. Who knows that they dare not go in when they arrive, but hide here and let me pick them up."

Shen Xingchi lowered his eyes, stroked the edge of the cup with his fingers, and said lightly: "Oh, you've been doing well these days, my little brother put it away."

Xiaoye: "A few college students are playful, so they can't be called younger brothers. By the way, no one called you? Cheng Hai..."

Shen Xingchi's expression was delicate: "Haiko is still following you?"

Xiaoye replied in a daze: "No, hey, Brother Shen, I didn't realize it unless you said it. I haven't seen that kid for a long time. He probably sneaked somewhere for vacation like you." ridicule.

Shen Xingchi: "Aren't you afraid of saying this?"

Xiaoye smiled obsequiously: "Brother Shen, you are such a nice person, do you still do bad things that the villain complained about behind your back? The few of us are not familiar with that Gu Jun, and our hearts are not all on your side."

Shen Xingchi snorted, not seeing the slightest bit of loyalty from him.

Suddenly, he had a sudden whim: "What if I really want to be the villain behind the scenes?"

Xiaoye's face showed embarrassment: "This..."

Shen Xingchi: "What if I want to be with Gu Jun?"

Xiaoye: "Gu Jun? Okay."

The other party returned too quickly, and Shen Xing, who was originally careless, felt his nerves tightened by his hands. He grabbed the dangling wine glass and said vigilantly: "Really?"

Xiaoye: "Hey, Brother Shen, what era is this, everyone feels how normal it is to play together."

Shen Xingchi's rare excitement suddenly cooled down, and he continued to shake the cup without saying a word.

Seeing the expression on his face, Xiaoye speculated secretly, and said with a smirk: "I didn't say that, brother Shen. Don't look at us who are enjoying ourselves now, but the marriage and the rest of our lives must not be arranged by the family. You have nothing to do with me Think clearly. You see, the little girl of the Gu family is also married to the young master of the Lin family who is well-matched."

Shen Xingchi clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction: "Wanwan really likes that Lin."

Xiaoye: "Isn't this just superficial talk, as long as we understand it. Assuming that the surname Lin is a poor boy, do you think the Gu family will let Gu Wan marry him?"

Shen Xingchi was completely silent.

Xiaoye teased: "Brother Shen, I'm talking nonsense, don't take it to your heart. If you want to date Brother Gu, I absolutely agree with both hands and feet. But you have to watch carefully, I heard that the Gu family is making arrangements for Brother Gu. Blind date."

Shen Xingchi: "Blind date?"

Xiaoye: "That's right, Brother Gu is so old, Gu Wan gets married before him, so don't worry about who else will be left behind. But if your matter gets out, Brother Gu will have a hard time in the future. He is excellent, so how many girls are waiting to think about it?" Picking this golden fruit. Marriage can bring benefits, solicitation in the early stage, and stability and consolidation in the later stage. Brother Gu’s gain is much less than business. But we, Brother Gu, are very good, so we will struggle for another two years, it’s a trivial matter.”

Two years, for a man whose career is on the rise, it is definitely not something that can be simply given up.What's more, whoever dares to guarantee the ticket will have a reversal in two years.

Shen Xingchi wanted to laugh again, his fragile persistence was defeated by success.

In the afternoon, the young man did use playing games as an excuse to agree to date Gu Jun first, and he knew best whether there was any sincerity in it.But the only thing that was certain was that he really didn't want to miss Gu Jun's future because of this incident, at least they grew up together.Xiaoye's words once again brought out his previous concerns and magnified them infinitely in front of him.

The throbbing was covered by the back and forth extinguishing of the sea called reality, Shen Xingchi's fingers were cold, and he could hardly hold the wine glass.He turned his head and faced the place where no one was there, and when he came back, he had already put on a smile on his face.

Shen Xingchi: "Xiaoye, why didn't I realize that you are so eloquent now. Just talk casually, and let you analyze it carefully."

Xiaoyeba blinked her eyes, and quickly laughed dryly: "Brother Shen, you are so bad, why are you still playing around with others?"

Shen Xingchi: "Recently, I saw that the relationship between you and Gu Jun is so tense, let me make a joke."

Xiaoye: "Haha, brother, you scared me to death. Just say it, I didn't see you having this tendency before. It would be so strange to see two men walking together hand in hand on the street."

Shen Xingchi was about to say something, but a ringtone interrupted the conversation between the two of them. Xiaoye took out her phone, glanced at the name on it, smiled at him shyly, turned her back to connect, and cursed in a low voice: : "Li Yu, where did you go, you wild boy, why didn't I see you..."

Shen Xingchi: "Have you contacted someone? Then go find them."

"Hey." Xiaoye got up, nodded and bowed to Shen Xingchi, "Brother Shen, you won't come..."

Shen Xingchi lied: "I have other appointments tonight."

Xiaoye: "Okay, then I'll go there first, they are young and ignorant."

After the annoying Xiaoye left, the whole bar fell silent instantly.Shen Xingchi finally stopped insisting, and collapsed limply on the seat like a balloon that had released all its hydrogen gas.

After a while, he drank the remaining wine in the glass, called the bartender, and refilled the glass.

Late at night, Shen Xingchi staggered out of the bar.

With the swaying steps, the cold wine in the stomach seems to be able to hear the sound of swaying.The moonlight was dim, and the excitement of the bustling city gradually came to an end.A gust of cool wind hit him, and he flinched unconsciously.

There are still a few hours left before the agreed meeting tomorrow, and although they have drunk so much alcohol, they are unprecedentedly sober.Xiaoye's words were repeated back and forth in his mind, Shen Xingchi walked halfway, couldn't help but staggered and leaned against the wall and laughed.

He couldn't help regretting his hothead just now, and resented the talkative Xiaoye, but all of this cannot be ignored.Of course he could not take it seriously from the very beginning, like Xiao Ye said, he was only greedy for short-term happiness, but Gu Jun absolutely would not, not to mention that he himself did not want to let things develop like this.If a thing has to end sooner or later, it is better to kill it in the cradle at the beginning.After all, he is hopeless, but Gu Jun has a great future.

Gu Jun's life should be smooth sailing, so it's really unnecessary to let this bad relationship become a stain in it.

To say how brisk his steps were when he came here in the afternoon, how heavy his steps are now when he goes back.

Shen Xingchi breathed a sigh of relief, tried his best to straighten his body and continue walking forward.

The light on the road ahead remained, and the young master suddenly had the illusion that he saw a glowing villa standing at the end, silently and warmly waiting for people to return.He remembered the first time he went for a walk with Gu Jun, because he was mischievous and threw a handful of sand away from the man, and he waited for a long time on the beach before the man came late.At that time, the distant light spread over and attached to his body, setting it with a circle of warm and fuzzy gold.Like an omnipotent god descended to the world, people dare to rely on it regardless of the consequences.

The scene in memory faded away, and there was no one around.

Shen Xingchi wrapped his coat tightly and walked along the street, silently and eagerly blending into the night of City A.

The remote island is like a secret paradise that cannot be touched by others. The young master knows in his heart that happiness begins here and will end here.

The author has something to say: Does anyone want to form a team to blow up Xiaoye's dog head? [doge face]
