Wei Jie
Chapter 116 Thank You, Gou Liu Zi
It was the early hours of the morning.
Su Tianyu, An Qiqi, Wawa, Bai Hongbo, and Zheng Han walked out of the bar together and headed down the street towards an inland river.
The area was filthy, littered with trash, but the view of the Pulaixin New District from there was exceptionally beautiful.
"What did you bring us here for?" An Qiqi said, her pretty face flushed. "I was about to fight them to the bitter end!"
"Sis, I'm broke! If I keep gambling, I'll lose even my underwear," Su Tianyu said, holding a bottle of wine. He asked softly, "Is it pretty here?"
An Qiqi looked at the scenery and nodded slowly, "It's quite beautiful."
"What's been making you unhappy lately?" Su Tianyu asked casually.
"A childhood friend, a male classmate who was very good to me, got cancer. Wawa and I went to see him a few days ago," An Qiqi said softly, gazing at the inland river.
"Does he like you, or do you like him?" Su Tianyu asked.
"He probably likes me. He's always been good to me, two years older," An Qiqi replied softly.
Su Tianyu pointed to the inland river and gently pinched An Qiqi's chin. "Shouting at this river will feel really good."
"How silly!" An Qiqi said, pouting from the pinch, unconvinced.
"Sometimes, doing something silly is the only way to feel really good, really simple."
"Bai Hongtao!!!"
Just then, Da Bai, standing beside them, looked at the inland river with red-rimmed eyes and roared, "Bro… I'm sorry, bro, I didn't do well enough! Rest in peace, I'll definitely take care of the family, take care of Mom and Dad!!"
His shout echoed, loud and piercing.
Da Bai raised his wine bottle and took two big gulps. "Xu Hu, I won't let him off either. One day, I'll make him pay with his life!!!"
An Qiqi looked at Da Bai and, after a long silence, also grabbed the railing of the inland river and shouted, "Feng Zhiyuan! Have a good journey, we'll be childhood friends again in the next life!!"
"Ah!!!"
An Qiqi gripped the railing tightly and shouted with all her might.
Su Tianyu drank his wine, waited for a while, and then asked, "Is your head spinning, is everything blurry, does it feel good?"
"Yeah!" An Qiqi nodded vigorously. "Actually, people's discomfort comes from hiding things in their hearts, from not telling anyone."
"Wise!" Su Tianyu nodded.
"Do you come here often?" An Qiqi asked.
"In the past, when we soldiers were in a good mood, we'd come here to drink; when we were in a bad mood, we'd come too," Su Tianyu said, gazing at her.
"Yes, Sister Hong told me," An Qiqi replied.
"Do you know why Sister Hong opened this bar?" Su Tianyu asked.
"No," An Qiqi shook her head.
"Sister Hong's husband died in the Independence War. She was alone here with her child, unable to make a living," Su Tianyu replied, looking at her. "Our comrades and I pooled some money to help her open this bar."
An Qiqi was stunned.
Su Tianyu turned to look at Da Bai again. "Life is always full of disappointments. Having a good drink to let it pass as soon as possible is all we can do. I'm also annoyed, and I don't know how to comfort you, but I can drink with you."
An Qiqi looked at Su Tianyu, who was only two or three years older than her, and nodded heavily. "I owe you a drink!"
"Alright!"
"...I owe you a prostitute experience, I'll treat you when we get back," Da Bai said to Su Tianyu simply.
"You're really a fool!" Su Tianyu really had no way to deal with teammates and wingmen like Da Bai.
"Do you really love to whore?" An Qiqi asked Su Tianyu curiously.
"...Let's just say I like it a little."
"That's good," An Qiqi nodded with relief.
"Hehe!" Su Tianyu smiled, raised his head, and shouted, "Alright, we've acted and made noise, let's go home and sleep. Company Commander, can you give us a ride?"
"Sure!" Zheng Han nodded decisively.
Around two o'clock in the morning, Zheng Han, whose alcohol capacity seemed bottomless, drove everyone back to the apartment building. An Qiqi and the others got out of the car first.
Inside the car, Zheng Han looked at Su Tianyu and said succinctly, "Call me if anything happens."
"Okay, I know," Su Tianyu nodded with a smile.
"I'm off!" Zheng Han pushed open the car door and turned to leave.
Su Tianyu watched him take a taxi and disappear into the distance before returning to the apartment in a happy mood. He closed the door and began to wash up alone.
After busying himself for about ten minutes, Su Tianyu, wearing his pajamas, was about to lie down in bed to sleep.
"Dong dong!"
A knock on the door sounded. Su Tianyu walked to the door, opened it, and saw An Qiqi. "Oh, here to spend some money?!"
"I'm not interested in you." An Qiqi's pretty face was flushed, and she looked at Su Tianyu with her big eyes. After a pause, she said, "Thank you!"
"Alright," Su Tianyu nodded.
"Good night." An Qiqi turned around smartly and waved her hand at Su Tianyu with her back to him.
"Really not going to spend some money?" Su Tianyu asked weakly.
"Close the door and disappear from my sight," An Qiqi pushed the door open and returned to her room.
Su Tianyu's throat was dry, his body was hot, and he closed the door with some lingering desire. He slapped his crotch hard twice. "Did I say hello? Why are you hard? Not listening to orders, huh?"
A little while later, An Qiqi finished washing up and lay in bed, feeling dizzy as she stared at the window. For some reason, she suddenly searched for news about the Independence War and the Chinese Legion on her phone.
…
The next morning.
After getting up on time, Su Tianyu asked Yu Mingyuan, "Where are we going today?"
"Going to a manor," Yu Mingyuan replied, eating breakfast. "To see… to see… someone very prestigious in the Chinese community."
"Damn, what level is that? A manor?" Bai Hongbo said, somewhat surprised.
"You'll know when we get there," Yu Mingyuan replied.
…
Around 11 a.m., four business cars arrived at a manor in the suburbs of Hua City.
This manor wasn't just an exaggerated description, but a real manor that covered thousands of square meters, with a horse farm, swimming pool, and small garden.
Although this manor was located in the suburbs of Hua City, it also reflected the sheer wealth of the boss they were going to see today.
The cars stopped in front of the Chinese-style villa in the manor. Su Tianyu, Yu Mingyuan, and the others followed the Yu Jinrong and Yu Jinhang brothers into the house.
…
Old Soldier Bar.
Zheng Han didn't wake up until noon again. He ate some Chinese food made by Sister Hong, hid in the warehouse, and dialed a number on his phone.
"Dudu…!"
After a busy tone, a customer service voice prompted that the other party was currently unable to answer.
"Company Commander, who are you calling?"
"Douzi! That kid has disappeared," Zheng Han said, frowning. "Where did he go? He's not even answering my phone."
