When Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, and Wang Hao were summoned by their boss to the riverside to "discuss work"...
Three faces of shock, shock, and more shock.
When they saw Xiao Cheng, who was travel-worn and carrying a bag, clearly having just returned from out of town and hadn't even gone home before immediately seeking drinks with them, they felt not only a pleasant surprise after such a long time, but also a great deal of horrified disbelief.
Why is it terrifying?
Ever since Cheng Ge's sister-in-law came into his family, wherever he goes, the first thing he does is come home to find her.
I don't have time to deal with them.
Absolutely not!
Moreover, the job description was even more terrifying and...ruthless than his actual appearance!
"Go do what you want to do."
Is this a sign of disbanding?
Of the four figures lying on the grass, three instantly rolled over and sat up, dropping their wine bottles before they could even pick them up. They all gathered in the middle, staring intently at the man who had closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
"Brother Cheng, are you kidding me?"
Luo Shiliu picked up the bottle and took a big gulp to sober up: "We were supposed to talk about work, how come it's fallen apart before we even started? Tell me you're drunk and joking! Are you kidding us?!"
Xiao Cheng opened his eyes, his gaze blank and empty as he stared at the night sky, like a lost eagle, without a destination, wandering aimlessly through the darkness.
Sinking into the boundless darkness, annihilated, an aura of loneliness and desolation, a silent shell.
Lifeless.
Under the influence of alcohol, Wang Hao shoved him, asking, "Brother Cheng! Brother Cheng, are you alright?"
“We’re doing just fine earning money at home with you and your sister-in-law, why would we want to do something else? What we want to do most is earn money with you and your sister-in-law! How come you don’t remember? Are you drunk? Are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?”
Xiao Dazhuang also rushed over in a panic.
"We agreed that good brothers would make money together and eat together, so why did you suddenly become a monk, Cheng-ge?"
Are you going to abandon us?
“In the past, we would come to the riverbank for a drink and a small get-together to let off steam after finishing our business. Why are you getting more and more troubled this time? Have you run into some trouble?” Luo Shiliu strongly suspected that Xiao Cheng had run into something serious.
Li Si didn't tell them what had happened. After dropping Xiao Cheng off, he went back to the city to hand over his work.
Before leaving, he was filled with worry, looking back every few steps.
He seemed to have something to say, but didn't know how to say it, and left without saying anything in the end.
Luo Shiliu decided that the next time they met, he would give Li Si a pair of slippers as a reward, to teach him the importance of prioritizing tasks.
What is the most important thing?
Xiao Cheng remained silent, his dark pupils unfocused in the darkness, as if detached from the world.
He had nothing to do with any of it.
Once the bottle is empty, toss it aside, and a large, icy hand pierces through the dark grass to reach another bottle and open it.
Just as he was about to drink it, Xiao Dazhuang snatched it away, saying, "Brother Cheng, don't drink anymore. Should we call your sister-in-law to come and pick you up?"
Attorney Xiao is single-minded; he thinks the person Xiao Cheng most wants to see right now is Bai Lu.
Cheng-ge loves the White Dew season the most.
Wherever there is white dew, Cheng-ge sees nothing but white dew.
Wang Hao noticed that the honest man had suddenly become clever, and was about to give him a compliment when a faint, lonely voice from the man echoed in the silent night.
"She's busy."
Although the three cobblers were slow to react to matters of the heart, upon hearing these three words...
But suddenly they guessed most of it at the same time.
The relationship between the eldest brother and sister-in-law may be in trouble.
The three heads turned to one side, huddled together, and began to whisper, exchanging information with each other.
The gossip about all those distant relatives...
The conclusion was that recently, all the distant relatives have started randomly matchmaking again.
Before the White Dew season, everyone feared and hated them, and would avoid them whenever they saw them.
They didn't dare to gossip behind people's backs.
After the White Dew season, she did many things that made the neighbors know the causes and consequences of many things, which changed their views on them and made them start to get along with them in a friendly manner.
They became bolder.
They dare to talk about any gossip, good or bad.
What a childhood sweetheart and national champion, what a perfect match of talent and beauty, all of that was wasted.
Pooh!
Nonsense! What rubbish! Bai Lu and Cheng Ge are together, how is that a waste of time!
If it weren't for Xiao Wei's mother, Cheng Ge's perfect score of nine out of ten exams would have made him the top student in the country long ago!
Cheng-ge and Bai-lu are the perfect match!
People who gossip need to be taught a lesson!
Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, and Wang Hao all reached the same conclusion, but that's not the focus at this moment.
The main issue now is that Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu's relationship is in crisis, and there may have been a misunderstanding.
Misunderstandings should be resolved immediately.
They can't solve it.
Looking for Bailu (White Dew).
Bai Lu can solve any problem; no matter how big the issue, she can resolve it with ease.
Yes, that's right. Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, and Wang Hao decided to "send" Xiao Cheng home.
Let my sister-in-law solve this life-or-death problem.
"Brother Cheng...it's like this, we think it's getting late...what's going on? Where is everyone?!"
The three cobblers turned around and were dumbfounded.
On the grass in front of me, besides the flattened grass and a black bag, there was no sign of any big shot.
Where did the big shot go?
Three cobblers noticed a small, flickering light by the river, much like a lit cigarette.
Sure enough, when they arrived, they saw Xiao Cheng standing facing the river, a cigarette between his fingers. His aloof figure seemed even more lonely, and the cigarette ash broke off as he rhythmically tapped it with his fingertips.
The river wind blew across their faces.
