Chapter 293 Memories
When they arrived at the bar, Yuan Chenxi was already waiting outside.
"We're finally here! If we hadn't come soon, the seats we saved for you would have been taken." Yuan Chenxi pulled the two of them inside.
Their positions were in a corner near the stage, a somewhat secluded spot that offered a panoramic view.
Wei Qianqian, who was sitting at the bar tasting drinks, saw them walk in together and followed them.
On stage, a woman dressed in a gentle manner is singing "The Fleeting Years".
People are gentle, and even their singing is gentle.
Wei Qianqian sat down with her wine glass in hand and said to Yuan Chenxi, "The bartender is so handsome."
"Don't drink too much. I almost got yelled at by Lu Min last time. If he sees me later, he'll definitely give me another scolding," Yuan Chenxi reminded her.
“A cocktail, not very strong, and besides, him and I…” Wei Qianqian murmured.
She wanted to say something, but couldn't bring herself to say it, so she just downed the drink in one gulp.
The image of Lu Min changing her clothes when she was drunk kept replaying in her mind.
"Lu Min is here too?" Luo Shu asked.
"Come on, all of you men, come on over." Yuan Chenxi instructed the waiters to prepare drinks and snacks for them.
Luo Shu pursed her lips; so this was the scheme Yu Zhan was referring to.
But it was a men's gathering, and she shouldn't get involved.
"You guys have fun first, I'll go entertain you and bring you a fruit platter later," Yuan Chenxi said before helping out.
Yu Yu leaned back on the sofa, one hand supporting her on the sofa, playing with Luo Shu's hair. "When I'm free, I feel like my whole body is empty."
“I always thought designers could work whenever they wanted and just lie around when they didn’t. After all, a dress can cost tens of thousands of yuan, and with your current net worth, it’s worth much more than that.” Wei Qianqian said.
Yu Yu joked, "Oh, how can we compare to you, Miss Wei?"
She and Luo Shu were each other's light, and they supported each other to get to where they are today. They have seen the wickedness of people's hearts, seen contemptuous looks, and have also fallen into the abyss.
They knew that only by standing out from the crowd could they gain a foothold and shut others up.
“Even a young lady is just an ordinary person.” Wei Qianqian disliked this title.
It seems that this title has nailed him to the pillar of high luxury.
It is precisely because of this relationship that many people look at her with strange eyes.
Just like the way Lu Min looked at her back then, if you didn't really understand her, you'd probably think of her as just a pretty face, one of those ordinary rich girls.
"Look at my mouth!" Yu Yu patted his mouth and punished himself with a drink.
Wei Qianqian raised her glass and drank it down with her in one gulp. "It's okay, I'm used to it."
She didn't mind, knowing that Yu was just joking.
Luo Shu was smiling as she drank her juice through a straw. Just as she was about to tell Wei Qianqian about Leng Xichen, Leng Xichen walked into the bar.
His appearance and upright posture attracted the attention of many people.
His other profile was absolutely perfect, but when he turned his head, a shocking scar became visible.
Wei Qianqian's gaze was naturally drawn to it.
"I haven't seen such a perfect face in a long time. It's such a pity that such a beauty has been ruined like this. His figure must be no worse than your husband's."
Wei Qianqian nudged Luo Shu with her elbow.
Luo Shu blushed at her sudden question, "I've never seen you before, how would I know..."
She glanced at Leng Xichen, who also happened to see her. Luo Shu reached out and waved to him.
Leng Xichen looked to the other side, and seeing that there was no one in the direction he was looking, he walked towards Luo Shu.
Wei Qianqian paused for a moment, then said, "He's here."
Her gaze had been fixed on Leng Xichen, and she hadn't noticed Luo Shu waving at him.
Leng Xichen watched as Luo Shu walked over. Wei Qianqian looked at Luo Shu and asked, "Do you know her?"
"Yes, friend, Leng Xichen," Luo Shu introduced.
"Hello." Leng Xichen nodded to her.
Wei Qianqian smiled awkwardly. Fortunately, she didn't say anything too offensive in front of Luo Shu, otherwise it would have been even more awkward.
"Hello, Wei Qianqian." She nodded as well.
Leng Xichen sat on the sofa opposite them, and he glanced at Wei Qianqian again.
This is Dr. Wei, the one who broke off his engagement with Lu Min. That Lu Min guy has terrible eyesight, and he's still not satisfied.
"Why didn't A-Zhan come with you?" Leng Xichen asked.
"I just found out you guys were gathering here too," Luo Shu said with a smile.
He nodded and then said nothing more.
The group was momentarily at a loss for words.
Leng Xichen awkwardly placed his hands on his knees. "Well then, I'll go first."
"Okay." Luo Shu nodded.
Wei Qianqian's gaze followed him. She had been staring at the scars on Leng Xichen's face, which Leng Xichen naturally noticed, hence his awkwardness.
After Leng Xichen left, Luo Shu asked, "Did you see that scar? Can he recover completely in this condition?"
Yu Yu also chimed in, "Transplanting pigskin is fine too."
"..." Wei Qianqian looked at Yu Yu and said, "The medical aesthetics industry is quite advanced now, and hospitals have the technology. It's just that his scar is quite old, and I'm afraid it's already deeply rooted."
Moreover, apart from not speaking much, Leng Xichen doesn't seem to care much about his appearance, and he could accept it even if it remained the same.
The main thing now is that if he can receive treatment, there is still a chance.
He just doesn't want to talk about it now, and nobody even knows how he got the scar.
He never mentioned how he spent those years.
Luo Shu and Yu Yu felt a pang of sorrow.
"The fruit platter is here!" Yuan Chenxi brought over a full bowl of fruit that had been arranged in a beautiful way.
"Mr. Yuan, that's enough, there's no more room on the table," Wei Qianqian said.
"This is a reward for you." Yuan Chenxi smiled and asked, "Who was that just now? I don't think I've seen him before."
When Yuan Chenxi came out of the kitchen, she saw Leng Xichen's departing figure. His back was a perfect inverted triangle shape. She initially thought it was Yu Zhan, but upon closer inspection, she noticed that their gaits were somewhat different.
Yu Zhan's pace was steady.
Leng Xichen is somewhat lazy and casual.
"A friend, I'll introduce you two sometime."
"You guys still have friends like this?" Yuan Chenxi laughed as she picked up a slice of watermelon and started eating.
In this circle, apart from the few men around them, Yuan Chenxi seems to have never seen any other relatively new men.
She joked, "I also want to be in a relationship, but no matter how I look at it, there's no man more handsome than Brother Yu."
"..." Wei Qianqian stared at her in a daze. Was it appropriate to say these things in front of Luo Shu like this?
"Heh heh..." Luo Shu chuckled.
Yu chuckled.
Yuan Chenxi recalled, "When I was pursuing Brother Yu, guess what Luo Shu said back then?"
"Yuan Chenxi! Shut up!" Luo Shu quickly interrupted.
Wei Qianqian quickly stopped her, "What did she say?"
Women have a unique fondness for gossip.
"I want to know too!" Yu Yu became interested; she didn't think Luo Shu had told her this before.
Yuan Chenxi picked up her wine glass, took a sip, and repeated exactly what her sister had said that day: "She said, rich young men are easy to find, but men who are 18cm tall are hard to come by..."
"Yuan Chenxi!"
...
Laughter echoed from the booths.
Leng Xichen turned around and saw Yuan Chenxi laughing so hard she was doubled over. He couldn't help but smile too.
