In the bar, these guys got more and more excited as they drank, and even started playing a game of truth or dare. Xu Ning unfortunately drew the short straw, she said "dare", and Pu Wanwan, who was already drunk, raised his hand and shouted, "Come give me a striptease!"
Xu Ning was actually already tipsy, and as soon as he heard "striptease", he started shaking his head vigorously, "I won't dance, nor will I strip..."
Actually, everyone is not interested in Xu Ning's reaction, but just wants to see how Xu Ning's man reacts. You can see Yang Pu sitting on the side, not speaking, very calm, as if everything around him doesn't exist for him, his world is outside another door, you can't enter his world.
"Yang Pu?" Su Yiran shouted out a sentence without thinking, trying to remind Yang Pu if he should have some reaction.
"Didn't Xu Ning say she wasn't going to dance?" Yang Pu toyed with his wine cup and replied indifferently.
"That calls for a penalty drink!" someone shouted.
Xu Ning sent a pleading gaze towards Yang Pu, but Yang Pu just shook his head at her, "We'll play by the game's rules, this wine... you still have to drink it."
Gong Shengqing's mouth curved into a smile, she was very satisfied with Yang Pu's current approach.
Xu Ning suddenly felt a great sense of loss, and with great difficulty, she forced out a faint smile. Then, in a fit of pique, without even looking at the cup of wine on the table, she stared at Yang Pu, stretched out one hand to sweep over the cup, and brought it to her lips. The wine was too full, and a lot spilled out, some even splashing into her eyes. She didn't bother to wipe it away, but instead poured the liquor down her throat in one gulp. The strong liquor pierced her throat, burning with a fiery pain, yet no matter how much it hurt, it couldn't compare to the pain in her heart.
"I'll send her back to her room—" Yang Pu stood up and was about to reach out to support Xu Ning.
The crowd burst into ambiguous laughter, so that's how it is, Yang Xiaoye deliberately got the beauty drunk to make it easier to take advantage of her - I get it, I get it, each and every one of them really thinks they're a tapeworm in someone else's belly.
Yangpu didn't care about other people's gaze, and pulled up Xuning, who was as soft as mud, and walked out of the bar door. Gong Shengqing quickly got up and followed him out.
"If you dare to follow, try it —" Yang Pu's one hand heavily pulled Xu Ning, the other hand fiercely pointed at Gong Shengqing, his expression did not allow you to resist.
Gong Shengqing's footsteps paused, gazing at Yang Pu, biting her lip. However - she really didn't dare take another step forward.
Yang Pu turned around and dragged Xu Ning into the hotel, without knowing how to be gentle with girls.
Just as he walked to the elevator, Yang Pu saw Bai Yang standing in front of the elevator with one hand hanging down, two fingers still holding a cigarette, the ash was already very long, and the sparks were about to burn his fingers.
"Bo Yang——" Yang Pu shouted at him, his eyes fixed on the cigarette, afraid that it would really burn up.
Bai Yang turned around, glanced at Yang Pu lightly, threw the cigarette in his hand into the trash can in front of him, and turned back to look at Yang Pu with a completely unenthusiastic attitude. "Just got back?"
"En." Yang Pu pulled Xu Ning into Baiyang, standing alongside him in a row, waiting for the elevator.
"She looks like she's had too much to drink—" Bai Yang nodded with his chin towards Xun Ning, making small talk.
Yang Pu felt that Bai Yang was not quite right, but he couldn't put his finger on what it was.
"Hey, why are you staring at me like that!" Bai Yang smiled awkwardly, afraid that Yang Pu would see through his inner thoughts, feeling uncomfortable and repressed.
"Where have you just been?" Yang Pu asked him.
"Where else can I go? Alone, I went for a walk around West Lake..."
The elevator doors opened with a "ding-dong".
Bai Yang stepped forward, and Yang Pu pulled Xu Ning along with him. Bai Yang suddenly looked at Yang Pu with a profound gaze, "Tonight, you and her..." The second half of the sentence didn't need to be said, those who should understand would still understand.
Yang Pu immediately understood and a smile spread across his face. He patted Bai Yang's shoulder, "You can guess even more accurately ——"
Bo Yang smiled but didn't speak, and the elevator quickly arrived at their destination floor.
"Wishing you a pleasant evening!" Bai Yang opened his own door and didn't forget to tease Yang Pu with a sentence.
Yang Pu let out a soft hum, with a playful and irreverent smile, shook his head, and pulled Xu Ning into the house. He didn't care what Bai Yang thought in that direction, he was originally covering up everything, covering up his true feelings. Everyone thought he chose Xu Ning, but they didn't know he chose Xu Ning for someone else's sake.
Bai Yang entered the house, the fake smile on his face instantly disappeared, and he lay heavily on the bed, his eyes unfocused, staring blankly at the ceiling. He didn't know what to do with himself, or how to deal with that woman.
Yangpu helped Xuning who was still in bed, took off her towel and wiped her face, "Get some rest..."
Xu Ning's eyes were spinning and he felt extremely dizzy, tightly grasping Yang Pu's hand.
"This liquor is very potent, just sleep for a while and you'll be fine —" Yang Pu pulled out his own hand, turned around and took out a washbasin from the bathroom, putting it under the bed.
"Yangpu——" Xu Ning murmured, she actually had no idea now, drunk beyond recognition.
Out of Xu Ning's room, Yang Pu walked out of the hotel alone and aimlessly. Unexpectedly, the sky was already drizzling with rain, which fell gently on his face and clothes. Along West Lake, Yang Pu started walking, but the rain grew heavier, and pedestrians on the road were rushing to find a place to take shelter from the rain, occasionally bumping into him.
Yangpu didn't dodge the rain at all, his heart was in a mess, like a spider web, dense and messy. He needed the rain to soak him, to flush himself again.
Suddenly, he missed Tong Jun so much, extremely, extremely. He wanted to suppress this damn thought, bought a dozen beers, walked in the rain while drinking, drank them all and went to buy more. In the end, Yang Pu simply stopped walking, sat on the side of the road, raised his head to let the rain hit his face, he could no longer tell what he was doing or whether he was drunk or not.
Staggering to his feet, he walked to an intersection and hailed a taxi. "To XX Road, near Wushan Square..." Yangpu pointed vaguely ahead, as if Wushan Square was just in front of him.
"Hurry up and get on the bus!" The driver urged impatiently, after all it's such a big rain.
Yangpu pulled the car door several times, but couldn't get it right. His eyes kept seeing double images. With great difficulty, he finally opened the door and bent down to sit inside.
"Geez, you've had a lot of wine -" The driver fanned the air around him with his hand, trying to dispel the smell of alcohol.
Yang Pu didn't care at all and looked dispirited with no image to speak of. As soon as he sat down, he fell asleep.
"Hey, wake up, we're here!" The driver shook Yang Pu vigorously. He knew better than to bring such a passenger, what a hassle!
Yangpu dazedly opened his eyes, but his consciousness hadn't caught up yet.
"That's 12 yuan in total, hurry up and pay so you can get off!" The driver was getting impatient.
"Oh—" Yang Pu subconsciously reached for his money, grabbed two things and stuffed them into the other person's hand, good guy, 2 one-hundred yuan bills. Without even waiting for the other person to make change, he opened the car door and got out.
"Hey, you don't want your change?" The driver yelled out symbolically, the car had already started moving slowly.
Yangpu couldn't hear anything, surrounded by the patter of rain, looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, no, it seemed a bit familiar, as if he had been there before. He tried to think hard, but his head got even more muddled.
It wasn't until he walked further ahead that Yang Pu gradually realized this was Tong Jun's home, the last time he came here was when he sent Tong Jun back to Hangzhou from Shanghai, but how did he end up here?
Yang Pu now stood in the rain, looking towards Tong Jing's house like a drowned chicken.
And behind him, not far away, stood another person, that was Gong Shengqing. She had been following him since he left the hotel, always staying behind him, and he never found out.
