A polymath synth artist defies her parents' plans by casting a scarlet fingernail into a nest of mummified womb-senators.
Upon its removal, the urn erupts, seven scaly impure miners surge...
The midnight wind came suddenly, rustling the branches of the trees next to the barbecue stall, sweeping away the summer heat. Fu Hange noticed that Jiang Xiaoling was dressed in thin clothes and hugged herself tightly, her shoulder-length hair being blown wildly by the wind.
When Liu Yunqi saw her, she immediately pounced on her and clung to her tightly, like a child who hadn't grown up, even though she was a year older than Fu Hange.
Fu Hange freed one of her hands, which was being held by Liu Yunqi, and took Jiang Xiaoling's hand. Jiang Xiaoling had been frowning the whole time, which showed how much she feared this evil wind.
The three of them sat together; they were the only customers at the barbecue stall. It was probably too late, and the wind was a bit strong, so no one else wanted to go out.
Liu Yunqi smiled and took the lead in ordering: "Boss, give us one of everything you have here."
"Okay, please wait a moment." The owner replied with a smile, while busy washing the ingredients.
Fu Hange nudged her with her elbow: "Can you finish it?"
Liu Yunqi patted her chest, exuding a chauvinistic air: "I'm not short of money. If we can't finish it, we'll pack it up. What's the point of us coming out? It's to have fun, right?"
After saying that, she gave Fu Hange a flirtatious wink, which gave Fu Hange goosebumps.
Jiang Xiaoling chimed in with a sweet smile, "Sister Yunqi is right. I haven't eaten much today, so I might as well eat more."
Hearing her say that, Fu Hange felt like she had found someone like her. She had been dealing with Gu Yuan for so long and hadn't even had a bite to eat yet.
Fu Hange tilted her head and asked Jiang Xiaoling, "Why didn't you eat? Are you having some financial difficulties?"
Jiang Xiaoling hurriedly denied it by gesturing wildly, as if someone wanted to eat her alive: "My stomach wasn't feeling well, so I didn't eat. Didn't you call me out? I was hungry anyway."
She gave Fu Hange an awkward smile, and Liu Yunqi immediately slammed her hand on the table and laughed without any regard for her image: "Eat whatever you want, don't be shy with us, we just want to have fun, you know? Eat, eat, eat, it's on me!"
Fu Hange saw that Liu Yunqi was already quite drunk even before drinking any alcohol, and was shouting so recklessly on the roadside. Even if no one was around now, did she really need to be so high-profile?
As they talked, the dishes were served. Liu Yunqi picked up a skewer of meat and chewed it. As if remembering something, she suddenly asked, "By the way, Fu Hange, where's your brother?"
Why are you asking him?
Liu Yunqi smiled sheepishly, then turned angry: "I haven't settled the score with him for going against me last time!"
Fu Hange gave an "oh" and continued to eat heartily, while Jiang Xiaoling also tried to feed her as if swallowing dates whole.
Looking at the two of them, Liu Yunqi thought they were really pathetic. Holding a skewer, she stood on a chair and said angrily, "By the way, he dumped me on the street last time. If I catch him next time, I'll definitely kill him."
She then pretended to imitate the fierce look of a villainous woman in a TV drama, clenching her fists.
"Have you taken a liking to my good-for-nothing brother?" Fu Hange asked with a smile.
Liu Yunqi was startled by her sudden question and quickly sat down properly to explain, "How could that be? I would fall for him? You're overthinking it."
"Sister Yunqi, I don't think he's suitable." After saying that, she carefully looked at Fu Hange, implying that Xu Yi was not good.
Fu Hange didn't say anything, just kept her head down and ate. Seeing this, the other two didn't say anything more.
Fu Hange didn't actually blame Jiang Xiaoling; she just liked to speak her mind and wasn't a bad person. After all, Xu Yi was the same way; he was just a disappointment, so he couldn't blame others for what they said.
