Chapter 59 Forgot

Wang Fang made a prompt decision and bought the domestically sold house from her friend, spending a total of more than 25,000 yuan. Even though Li Zhiye scratched his head and glared at her, she refused to give in and insisted on paying the money alone.

Because the house was to be left to Xin Tianyi, Wang Fang felt that paying off the money herself would make up for the pain of being away from her hometown and Xin Tianyi.

In the following days, Wang Fang began to go around various furniture stores. She only chose expensive ones without choosing the right ones. There were not many pieces of furniture, but each one was exquisite, especially Xin Tianyi's bedroom. Wang Fang designed it carefully, and it only took three or four days to move all the furniture into the new house.

At Li Zhiye's strong request, Wang Fang finally agreed to buy him a television and other home appliances. However, these appliances were in short supply during the Chinese New Year, and they had to be pre-ordered and would not arrive until after the Chinese New Year.

The new house was completely packed up just before the Chinese New Year, and Wang Fang and Li Zhiye also moved in from the guesthouse. Unfortunately, the occupancy rate of the community was relatively low, with only a few households living in each building, and it was very quiet.

Xin Tianyi also had winter vacation, but he hadn't come back yet. Wang Fang had walked to the gate and looked outside more than once, but there was no sign of Xin Tianyi.

Li Zhiye could only persuade her, "It's okay. It must be those kids who won't let her go. They agreed to send her home together. They're all grown-up kids now, so nothing will happen to them."

The children Li Zhiye was talking about were Zhang Yang and his friends.

Ever since Wei Ran and Yuan Dabao had their winter break, they'd been eagerly anticipating Xin Tianyi and Zhang Yang's arrival. They'd eagerly wait for their final exams to be over and their official break to begin. They'd visit Xin Tianyi every day, then ride their bikes back to the mill's living quarters. The four of them would spend the day together, then ride their bikes back home in the evening.

After two days of playing like this, the four of them had eaten and enjoyed everything they wanted to eat and play nearby. Yuan Dabao finally fulfilled his wish and ate all the delicious food from his hometown that he missed.

After playing all the entertainment programs, the four of us went to see a movie in the afternoon, Stephen Chow's "The Legend of Drunken Master".

It was already late when they came out of the cinema. They hadn't had dinner yet and Yuan Dabao kept saying he was hungry, so the four of them stopped at the intersection near the cinema.

There is a wonton stall at the corner of the street. The old man has been running it for many years, and his four children often come to eat it. The wonton skin is thin and the filling is large, and there are a lot of shrimp skins in the soup. After discussing it, they decided to eat wontons.

Who knew that as soon as he sat down, Xin Tianyi heard someone calling his name.

When I turned around, it was Cheng Tianlan.

"You guys are here to eat wontons too?" Cheng Tianlan smiled and waved at Xin Tianyi. "I didn't expect to meet you here!"

"I just finished watching a movie," Xin Tianyi said, "and came here to have a bowl of wontons."

"Su Qi'er?" Cheng Tianlan immediately envied him, "I wanted to see it too, but no one was there to watch it with me, so I kept putting it off."

Xin Tianyi nodded, then introduced to Yuan Dabao and Wei Ran: "This is my deskmate, Cheng Tianlan. She used to be in the same school as us."

As Xin Tianyi was speaking, Cheng Tianlan came over with his wontons, "I'll eat with you. By myself."

Cheng Tianlan sat next to Xin Tianyi. It was a very cold day and there were few people on the street. Everyone was at home preparing for the New Year. The only people wandering around were students who had just finished their vacation.

But at this time, Cheng Tianlan was actually eating wontons here by herself. Xin Tianyi saw that her glasses were fogged up, so he asked, "Did you come here alone?"

"No, I'm waiting for my second brother." Cheng Tianlan pointed to the intersection not far away, "Do you see that dance hall? My second brother came here to work during the holidays. He said he would take me to buy some things for the New Year after work, but he hasn't come out yet."

"Your second brother is working here?" Xin Tianyi asked in surprise, "Are you hiring him? He's only a little boy."

"This dance hall is owned by my eldest brother." Cheng Tianlan whispered, "So, just take it over."

"So that's how it is." Xin Tianyi said.

The wontons were already served. Yuan Dabao listened attentively to their conversation. When Cheng Tianlan mentioned that the dance hall was owned by her eldest brother, he immediately became interested and asked, "Did your eldest brother own it?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Then can you come in?"

Cheng Tianlan ate her wontons, and with every bite, her glasses fogged up. She looked up and saw Wei Ran across from her also having the same problem. She couldn't help but laugh. She said to Wei Ran, "Why don't we take off our glasses? It's really delaying our meal."

Wei Ran smiled and said, "Yes."

They both took off their glasses at the same time, and felt their vision was slightly blurry. They looked at each other and smiled again.

"Of course I can get in." Cheng Tianlan finally answered Yuan Dabao's question, "I used to come here often when I was in junior high school."

Yuan Dabao was filled with envy. He glanced at the glittering neon lights from afar and said sheepishly, "I wanted to go in before, but was stopped by the people at the door. They said children were not allowed in."

Cheng Tianlan nodded: "You can't go in. If you get caught, my brother will be fined. In serious cases, he will have to close the business. Besides, you can't drink or dance in there, you won't be able to spend money, and there will be more people in there, so they will definitely stop you."

"What's inside?" Yuan Dabao was very curious. "Tell us about it."

Cheng Tianlan said slowly: "There are singers, a dance floor, and booths where you can drink and chat. There are also private rooms where you can sing and so on."

"That's great?" Yuan Dabao asked with a smile, "Then will no one stop you from going in?"

"I don't go through the front door either." Cheng Tianlan pointed to the back alley. "There's a small back door over there. It's the back door of the kitchen. Go through the kitchen and you'll reach the dressing room at the back. I always go through the back door. People who work inside also go through the back door."

Listening to Cheng Tianlan telling everyone about the nightclub, everyone seemed to have opened up a new world, especially when they heard that there was a kitchen inside, everyone was even more surprised.

"Is there a kitchen inside?" This time it was Wei Ran who asked first.

"Yes. But they are very simple dishes, mainly some snacks to go with wine, noodles, and some fruits."

"So you said your second brother is going to get off work soon. It's only evening now, and he's going to get off work? Don't dance halls usually open in the evening?"

"There are people working in the afternoon too." Cheng Tianlan had finished a bowl of wontons and wiped his mouth with a tissue. "My eldest brother won't let him work the night shift. His day shift workers will be off around six o'clock, and someone will come to take over the night shift."

As soon as Cheng Tianlan finished speaking, he saw Cheng Tiandong coming out from the back alley. He was still wearing a white shirt inside and a military coat on the outside.

There were a few other people leaving get off work with Cheng Tiandong. They were chatting and laughing as they walked away. Cheng Tiandong smiled and answered the questions asked by the girl next to him. He didn't notice that his sister was eating wontons at the stall next to him.

"Cheng Tiandong!" Cheng Tianlan shouted, "Have you forgotten me?"

Cheng Tiandong shuddered with fright, then he remembered that his sister was still waiting for him outside, and quickly turned around.

The girl with him also turned around with a smile and laughed at him: "How could you forget your sister?"
