i'm not a bad man

Chapter 165
Qin Minhong said it right. I am a person with a very sense of proportion, so after I hurt Lu Xi in that way, I could only care about her so much. I didn't say anything to the person on the other end of the phone. Qin Minhong asked more questions about Lu Xi. I still don’t know whether she is in Qingdao, BJ, or right next to Qin Minhong.

I have regrets in my heart. If I could say "thank you" to her in person on the day of the concert, I probably wouldn't be as resentful as I am now.

If you don't meet some people, it will be nothing. But after you meet them, it will be a pain that will never be let go for a lifetime. I will never meet a woman like her who makes me fall in love at first sight in the rest of my life. I will become more and more fond of her. The more stable I am, the more I focus on family and survival, until the romantic gene in my body disappears, which is when I say goodbye to my youth completely. But no matter how time goes by, she is still the most vivid aspect of my youthful life. The flag proves that my life is not rigid or boring. At least I once really met a woman who was moved by my heart at first sight... Moreover, she was pretty good to me. She gave me material help as well as spiritual help. It has given me enlightenment and made me no longer willing to fall and wander.

……

Standing there, lost for a moment, I finally put my phone into my pocket, and then walked slowly towards the elevator. I knew that when the elevator door opened again, a new chapter in my life would begin, and I would see A group of people I have never met before. If I don’t want to be lonely here, I need to establish a friendship with them, but I don’t know if I can really cater to the way of making friends in a small town. I heard that they don’t drink and have fun. But my desire to drink is getting less and less, which will affect my drinking capacity.

……

Opening the door, Zuo Xiaowei's group of friends from the small town appeared in my sight. It was a table for 12 people. Except for the empty seat next to Zuo Xiaowei, all other seats were full; it was clear that When she came out, Guan Yubo was more prestigious among her group of friends, so he sat in the middle. Another man with a bit of cross-eyes sat next to him. He should be Chang Yuli, the legendary son of the richest man in the small town. Besides them, there were also There are four men and four women...

Putting aside the men, the appearance of the four women is uneven. Three of them are average-looking, and only one is good-looking and fashionably dressed. However, compared with Zuo Xiaowei, there is still a certain gap. No wonder Zuo Xiaowei is the most favored among her friends. In this small town, she is one of the few women who can combine beauty and talent.

After observing this for a while, I sat down next to Zuo Xiaowei. Zuo Xiaowei was in a very good mood, and immediately took my hand and said earnestly to everyone: "I would like to introduce you to him solemnly. His name is Han Chao is my boyfriend and the person I admire most. When we come back this time, we don’t plan to leave. If you have time in the future, you are welcome to meet us for drinks and dinner..."

Everyone expressed their welcome to our return to the small town, and then the woman whose appearance was second only to Zuo Xiaowei said to me very enthusiastically: "I also watched the live broadcast of your charity performance in Qingdao. You really He is so handsome. Not only does he sing beautifully, but he can also play guitar, piano, and drums... We can doubt Xiaowei's IQ, but we must not doubt her vision for finding a boyfriend."

The remaining women nodded in agreement, I couldn't tell whether they were sincere or polite, but in short, they pleased Zuo Xiaowei, and she held my hand tighter.

At this time, another man with adolescent acne scars on his face said to me: "Your concert was really awesome. You even invited Lu Xi as a backup singer. I am her fan... you and her Are they friends?"

"That's it."

"Can you invite her to our place? If I can have a meal with her, I think my life will be worth it." He didn't seem to be joking. After speaking, he added: "Or I can go to Qingdao That’s okay, can you give me a recommendation?”

I had mixed feelings, but I still smiled and replied: "We are just ordinary friends, I'm afraid you won't give me this face."

Zuo Xiaowei coughed and signaled not to talk about this topic, but her group of friends didn't understand. They shouted at the man with acne scars again: "Brother Qu, you are the only one in our group who has passed the age of 25." For a man who is rushing to reach his 30s, you can’t tell that you are still chasing stars!”

"Men are young until they die, and high-quality idols are worth pursuing for a lifetime."

"Tch, you should hurry up and find a girlfriend. YY female stars have no future..."

"Pay attention to the words you use, that's not called YY, that's called appreciation..."

I didn't stop to listen to their next conversation. When I came to my senses again, there was a wine dispenser in front of me, filled with white wine.

Guan Yubo raised his cup before everyone else, and then said to me: "Brother Chao, welcome you and Xiaowei back to the small town, let's have a drink together first... But we have to agree in advance, we won't talk to anyone today. Drinking capacity, let’s put all our friendship in the wine glass. We just want to drink well and drink beautifully. Do you think it’s okay?” “Do as the Romans do, of course.”

After saying that, I also picked up the cup, and then shared the first glass of wine with everyone after meeting.

As soon as I put the glass down, Guan Yubo said to me again: "Brother Chao, since we are doing as the Romans do in the country, let me also talk about the rules of drinking here. You are a guest today. After finishing the opening drink, one of us has to accompany you." After three glasses of wine, we already got to know each other yesterday. This is the first time for you to meet the rest of my friends, so I will take this opportunity of accompanying you to introduce myself to you."

"Isn't three drinks per person a bit too much?"

"Not much, really not much at all. This is the way of hospitality in our small town. You must not think that we are making things difficult for you. There is an allusion to this... Before the reform and opening up, our small town was special, special I was poor, and there was a great famine. According to my grandparents, no one really had enough to eat at that time, let alone drink. At that time, wine was a luxury product, and only very distinguished guests came to the house. Only then will the treasured wine be taken out... Everyone drinks three glasses of wine with the guests first. In fact, we want the guests to drink more of this hard-won wine. This is our way of hospitality and our affection... …So, this wine must not be refused.”

Guan Yubo is already a veteran of the wine shop at a young age. After saying this, I can't refuse this kind of adult beauty, let alone respect the hospitality of a place, so I picked up the wine glass and said to Guan Yubo: "Okay, let's start with you for these three glasses of wine."

Just when I was about to raise my head and drink the first glass of liquor, Chang Yuli, who was sitting next to Guan Yubo, suddenly spoke. He said to Guan Yubo: "Yu Bo, we don't count Xiaowei here, and For ten people, three cups per person means thirty cups, which is really too much!”

Guan Yubo still had a smile on his face, but his tone of reply was cold and ruthless: "Chang Yuli, are you being ignored?"

Chang Yuli was a little timid, but didn't want to lose face in front of Guan Yubo, so he bit the bullet and said: "If I drink Brother Chao until he faints at the beginning, he won't be able to drink anymore... Otherwise, Brother Chao , you drink two drinks, and I’ll drink one for you.”

Chang Yuli is said to be the son of the richest man in the town, but he looks so immature in front of Guan Yubo. This immaturity does not refer to his age, but his aura and ability to cope with situations. In addition, he has the defect of cross-eyed. He actually felt a trace of sympathy for him; so, without anyone opening his mouth to cater to Chang Yuli, he took the initiative to say to Guan Yubo: "I think Yu Li's proposal is feasible. After all, our country has achieved the grand goal of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way." Target, the small town has been developing by leaps and bounds in recent years. Not only is it rich in molybdenum mines, but the tourism industry is also booming. As young people, we should follow the trend more than anyone else. As for those old people who can’t eat enough to drink, forget about it. Forget it... But when we meet for the first time, I have to drink with everyone one by one. Let Yuli drink one for me. This is also a gesture of friendship. When I get better, I will return the ten glasses of wine to him. ..." At this point, I smiled a little, and then said: "This is my first drink in a small town. I can't give up halfway, so let's slow down the pace a little so that I can drink with you all. at last."

Guan Yubo looked at me, then at Chang Yuli, and finally gave up and said: "Brother Chao, I don't mean anything against you. I have heard Xiaowei say it several times before, saying that you have an amazing capacity for drinking. , I drank two kilograms of white wine in one breath... I have drank countless times, and I have never seen anyone who can drink like you. You may think that I am making things difficult for you, but in fact I am cowardly of you..." After finishing speaking , and in a joking tone, he said to Chang Yuli next to him: "You are really a fool. Brother Chao's drinking capacity needs you to replace him. If we all faint here today, Brother Chao will be awake alone. Are we going to hang out in a small town again? We really don’t know how to step down."

Everyone echoed Guan Yubo and laughed, but I lost my mind in their laughter. Although I was far away from Luxi and came to the small town, her shadow was still everywhere here because of the appalling two kilograms of liquor. Just drink it for her.

……

After a round of wine, I had already drank two glasses of wine from the wine dispenser, which was about half a catty. In fact, after drinking two catties of white wine that time, although my drinking capacity was still stronger than the average person, it had really dropped. It was a lot, so after quickly drinking half a kilogram of white wine, I felt a little dizzy and wanted to wash my face with cold water...

I went to the bathroom, and Zuo Xiaowei followed me out. We stood in front of the mirror between the men's and women's bathrooms, and she asked me with concern: "You didn't drink too much, did you?"

"It's okay, just wash your face with cold water."

After saying that, I turned on the faucet, bent down to wash it, and then took the paper towel Zuo Xiaowei handed me. While wiping my face, I said in a chatting tone: "The call I received below was from Chen Linqi. Mine, he said, there is still a dispute between you that has not been resolved."
