The Palace That Never Sleeps.
A nightclub whose business scope and purpose can be seen from its name. Its decoration style is very much in line with the aesthetic taste of the rich second generation of coal bosses, who even have the faucets in the toilet plated with gold. There were two rows of receptionists standing at the entrance of the nightclub, wearing white shirts, black stockings, 10-centimeter black high heels, and their uniform skirts just covering their thighs. As soon as the guest pushed the door open, she bowed 90 degrees and shouted "Welcome" in a coquettish voice, then twisted her hips and led the guest from the magnificent lobby into a corridor with walls covered like oversized mosaics and flashing lights that could blind people. The sound of karaoke songs kept coming out from the boxes on both sides, until at the end of the corridor, the dynamic and explosive DJ dance music became louder and louder, and the field of vision suddenly opened up -
Young men and women who like to go to bars stand in the dance floor, shaking their heads and raising their arms to the deafening DJ music. Dancers dressed in particularly cool and hot clothes stand on the stage and dance erotically, attracting whistles and howling. The colorful light balls above their heads flicker, and when they spin wildly, they shake out colorful lights that blind people. At first glance, it looks like a dance floor full of zombies having a party.
Tao Mu looked at the group of people dancing wildly on the dance floor, twisting their waists and hips, rubbing their chests and backs, and he was actually a little uncomfortable.
Before his rebirth, Tao Mu was obsessed with finding trouble with Shen Yu and had no energy to relax himself. Later, he was banned by Shen Yu's admirers and had to quit the entertainment industry. He was taken by Shen's eldest brother to learn how to do business. As a precocious and mature business genius, Chen Chen himself is an extremely strict and old-fashioned person. He hates entertainment venues such as nightclubs and KTVs, and also strongly opposes his family members entering such places.
In the first few years after Tao Mu returned to the Shen family, in order to please the Shen family, he naturally would not do anything that the Shen family did not like. Later, he was kicked out of the house by the Shen family, and he was obsessed with revenge. Every day I am either thinking about doing something or doing something, turning myself into a psychopath with a deep sense of hatred and resentment, and forgetting all entertainment activities.
Now that time has gone back, Tao Mu quietly looked at the scene of the demons dancing wildly in the dance floor, and couldn't help feeling emotional - he just felt that he was quite funny in his previous life. As soon as he met Shen Yu, he became possessed, and his IQ plummeted, just like seeing a bullfighting in a red cape.
[Is this the so-called protagonist halo?] No matter whether it is a vicious cannon fodder or a big villain, as long as they face the protagonist, their IQ will be infinitely lowered. Is it because the author is unable to write a normal villain? 】
Tao Mu's heart skipped a beat. Seven days after rebirth, the fragmented dreams were finally pieced together, and Tao Mu basically accepted the fact that he had lived again. However, the words that popped up in his mind from time to time still made him frightened and difficult to adapt.
Of course, to this day, Tao Mu doesn't suspect that he has a mental illness. And judging from the information that keeps popping up in my mind, these words are probably evaluating a novel.
According to Tao Mu's speculation, it seems that the protagonist of the novel is Shen Yu, and he is the vicious cannon fodder used to promote the development of the plot and emotional interaction?
"Tao Mu, what are you thinking about?" Da Mao suddenly put his arm around Tao Mu's shoulder and shouted with a grin, "Which girl do you fancy? I'll help you chase her. On your 18th birthday, our goal is to make you lose your virginity!"
Tao Mu came back to his senses and pushed Damao unhappily: "Go and play by yourself!"
Big Mao chuckled and pulled Little Fatty into the dance floor.
Because Tao Mu worked as a part-time waiter and bartender in a nightclub in Beijing, the two childhood friends who often picked up Tao Mu to and from get off work were influenced by him and had already become nightclub experts. At this moment, she was twisting her waist and hips to the exciting dance music, wildly teasing the big-breasted and long-legged girls around her.
Tao Mu followed them absentmindedly. When he woke up and went downstairs, he changed into a black round-neck T-shirt and ripped jeans that covered his long, straight legs. His originally fair skin looked even whiter under the dazzling light effects of the dance floor. The bright or dark colored lights made his outlines more profound and three-dimensional. He has an extremely handsome face, a tall figure that makes him look thin despite the clothes he wears, and a casual look that is so sexy that it makes people scream.
As a result, along the way, wherever Tao Mu walked, there would inevitably be people who would come up to him intentionally or unintentionally. Some brave ladies would even take out the small notes they had prepared long ago from their chests and put them into Tao Mu's trouser pockets with a smile. Then he touched Tao Mu's shoulders, chest, abdominal muscles and even buttocks. Tao Mu, who hadn't been touched like this for a long time, couldn't dodge in time and could only accept his fate and frown. His expressionless face makes him look even cooler and more attractive.
Some boys were not convinced that Tao Mu could attract so many hot girls with just his face, so they swayed in front of Tao Mu, trying to provoke him to dance with them, proving that no matter how handsome a guy is, he could become a mummy on the dance floor. A group of spectators who were looking for fun immediately made way for them, and some even whistled and made a noise.
It's a pity that Tao Mu himself had no intention of dancing, and even if he was provoked, he was too lazy to leave. But Big Hair and Little Fatty, they came up to you and started fighting with you.
Gou Rixin, who was crying and shouting to apologize, had been waiting for a long time with his girlfriend and his group of martial arts brothers. Hearing the commotion in the dance floor, they immediately squeezed over and dragged Tao Mu and the other two to the booth next to the dance floor. Several dozen beers were opened on the table, and a few plates of fruit platters and various snacks were ordered. In the middle of the table was an exquisitely beautiful matcha cake - with a pink longevity peach neatly placed in the middle, which looked very mismatched.
Gou Rixin put his arm around Tao Mu's shoulders and said with a smile, "Come, come, come, let me introduce you to everyone. This is Tao Mu, the birthday boy tonight, and the main person we are going to host a banquet to apologize for our sins. This is Yu Mei, my girlfriend. How about her? Pretty, right?"
After Gou Rixin's introduction, a beautiful mature woman who looked to be in her twenties, with fair skin and heavy makeup, who was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed, stood up. She looked at Tao Mu with undisguised amazement and admiration in her eyes. She stretched out her slender hand to Tao Mu and shouted, "Hello, handsome guy. Call me Meimei."
Out of politeness, Tao Mu also stretched out his hand. The moment the two hands clasped together, Tao Mu felt someone scratch his palm.
Yu Mei blinked at him, leaned forward and whispered in his ear: "Or, you can also call me sister-in-law."
If Tao Mu hadn't subconsciously tilted his head, Yu Mei would have kissed his ear.
The noise in the dance floor was so disturbing that everyone had to shout close to each other to talk, so no one noticed that something was wrong with Yu Mei. Tao Mu pulled his hand back calmly, and Damao came forward with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you are so beautiful."
Yu Mei seemed not to hear what Damao said. She still stared at Tao Mu and shouted, "Happy birthday. I chose this birthday cake. Do you like it?"
"Yes! Yu Mei chose this cake. But I added the birthday peach myself." Gou Rixin pointed at the birthday peach that didn't match the style of the cake at all and said with a silly smile, "Do you like it?"
Tao Mu and the other two suddenly realized. Da Mao smiled and said, "I was wondering why the styles of these cakes don't match. Brother Gou, your taste is not as good as my sister-in-law's."
Gou Rixin seemed to be particularly satisfied with his girlfriend. When he heard this, he immediately smiled so hard that his teeth were showing. In contrast, Yu Mei seemed to be more interested in Tao Mu, the birthday boy. When she sat down, she moved from Gou Rixin's side to Tao Mu's side and said with a smile, "How old are you this year, handsome boy? I heard from our big dog that you are very good at kung fu and you were admitted to the Beijing Film Academy. You will definitely be a big star in the future!"
"Come on, let's have a drink! Your brother said that he offended you and your buddies on the set today, and he wants to apologize to you tonight, but he's afraid you won't accept it. So, give me some face, and let's have a drink--"
Before Tao Mu could speak, Yu Mei added frivolously: "As long as you are willing to forgive your brother, your sister-in-law will drink a cup of wine with you."
As soon as Yu Mei said this, several of Gou Rixin's friends frowned uncomfortably. Of course there are also insensitive ones who just sit there and cheer. Tao Mu has never been interested in such frivolous and self-familiar people. This reminds him of the kind of guests he had to deal with when he worked in a bar or other places in his previous life - such as those who were attracted by beauty or those who pretended to be crazy after drinking.
In the first few years after returning to the Shen family, he was reluctant to talk about these experiences. However, Shen Yu's flower-guarding messengers always remind him in various ways and on various occasions how humble and fawning Tao Mu was in the past - in order to earn some commission from alcohol, he could swallow his anger and fawn on others. This proves that when faced with greater interests, he will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, and indirectly proves that Tao Mu is such a hypocritical, smooth, and scheming person, and cannot compare to Shen Yu's innocent and noble character.
Of course, they later proved with facts that Tao Mu was indeed such a sinister, vicious, hypocritical and jealous person.
Tao Mu never denied that he was that kind of hypocritical and selfish person. But in matters that have nothing to do with interests, Tao Mu is also happy to show his demeanor and character. Because of this, even though he didn't like Yu Mei's style of doing things, Tao Mu still picked up his wine glass and clinked it in Gou Rixin's direction: "Forget about the wedding wine, I'll clink a glass with Brother Gou, and let's forget our grudges with a smile."
As he spoke, Tao Mu drank a full glass of ice-cold beer in one gulp. Maybe because he was used to saving money when he was in the orphanage, Tao Mu drank very cleanly. Even when he drank from a large glass, the beer did not flow down his chin like many people did, covering his face and neck. Instead, he drank slowly and methodically without leaving a drop, and turned the glass upside down when he finished the last drop. At that time, Gou Rixin still had half of his drink left, so he had to admit defeat. While drinking, he gave Tao Mu a thumbs up.
Da Mao, Xiao Pang and Gou Rixin's martial arts brothers all clapped and cheered. Perhaps because Tao Mu's initiative to give them a way out suited their taste, Gou Rixin and his martial arts brothers had a better and better impression of Tao Mu and the other two. The atmosphere became more and more harmonious.
As men, no matter how old they are, when they get together and drink too much, they can't avoid bragging. Gou Rixin, who said he would punish himself with three cups of beer but actually drank three bottles of beer, grabbed Tao Mu's arm and started bragging about his past achievements. He claimed to be a lay disciple of the Wudang Sect, and said that he was very good at kung fu and had been a stuntman for many big stars, some of whom were very popular action stars in the current entertainment industry.
"...Actually, I don't think those guys are much better than me. They just have better luck than me. If I were in front of the camera, I wouldn't necessarily be worse than them. As an action star, as long as the moves are beautiful, that's all. Besides, I don't look that ugly, right?"
Gou Rixin said, patting his bulging chest muscles and biceps: "Look, how manly!"
Tao Mu sat next to him, looking at Gou Rixin who was acting as a bodybuilder while holding a bottle of wine in one hand. He vaguely remembered that in his previous life, this man seemed to have broken his leg due to a coercive accident, and because he did not receive timely treatment, he seemed to be disabled in the end.
When you think about it this way, this is pretty bad luck.
Tao Mu himself had very bad luck, so when he looked at Gou Rixin, who also had bad luck, he felt a sense of sympathy.
Yu Mei was sandwiched between the two of them. Looking at her boyfriend who would hug someone and act crazy when he got drunk, she rolled her eyes very obscurely and said loudly, "Are you drunk again? You keep talking about your little things all day long, and now you're talking about Tao Mu. Aren't you ashamed? You don't really think you can become a big star, do you?"
As if he was very familiar with Yu Mei's scolding, the drunken Gou Rixin just smiled innocently and said indifferently: "This is just a casual chat. I just talked to Brother Tao Mu about my ideals. There is a line in the movie that says that you must have ideals in life, otherwise you are no different from salted fish."
Yu Mei sneered, and several people lit up a lady's cigarette familiarly: "I think you are just a salted fish, you will never be able to turn over in this life."
Gou Rixin's brothers couldn't stand it anymore. He glared at Yu Mei. Yu Mei glared back unwillingly, with her flaming red lips and cigarette in her hand, she looked extremely fierce.
This emotion is a bit wrong!
Da Mao and Xiao Pang looked at each other and shouted at Tao Mu: "Let's go dance?"
"That's right. We finally come to the nightclub, we can't just hide here and drink, right?" Xiao Pang smiled and pulled Tao Mu, shouting, "Please welcome our little prince of the nightclub to make a shining debut."
The Little Prince of Nightclubs...
Tao Mu couldn't bear to look at it and wiped his face, then was pushed onto the dance floor by his two childhood friends.
After a few bottles of ice beer, Tao Mu was a little drunk. Not as uninterested as when I first came in. Slide into the dance floor to the beat of the music, then do a backflip and jump onto the stage in the center of the dance floor. The crisp and neat movements coupled with Tao Mu's handsome face definitely created a visual impact that was greater than two hundred.
There were immediate screams and whistles from the audience; even the DJ on the second floor played a more intense and dynamic electronic music to suit the occasion. Tao Mu, who was quite a crowd-pleaser, was stimulated by alcohol and screams. In coordination with the intense dance music, he stood upside down with his hands on the ground, and his feet swung regularly in the air, doing an extremely smooth bicycle. Then he changed to a one-handed bicycle, followed by a big loop, using inertia to make a handless windmill, and finally a cool pose was completed. All his movements were smooth and flowing, and his beautiful six-pack abs were faintly visible under the black T-shirt. His hormone-filled showmanship immediately attracted wolf howls and screams in the dance floor.
In the private room on the second floor, Luo Yang, who was drinking with his friends, subconsciously looked towards the dance floor. He saw Tao Mu showing off his skills and exuding hormones on the stage, and his eyes lit up: "It's him."
Following his childhood friend's gaze, Li Xiaoheng shifted his gaze with a lack of interest. Before I could see the people on the stage clearly, Luo Yang pulled me up from the sofa by my arm: "Let's go and join in the fun."
