Chapter 14: Snooping (n/p) Can we still be friends after breaking up...
You Wu had just arrived home when he received Cheng Xue's message.
She had just been defeated by Ke Yanlou and fell into the bed with her exhausted body, holding the document bag.
You Wu hugged the quilt and pounded it twice before opening Cheng Xue's message.
Snow [Wuwu, Jiayu's birthday was yesterday, come to the bar when you are free.]
In high school, You Wu worked part-time at Cheng Xue's bar and became good friends with Cheng Xue. Later, Chen Jiayu also followed You Wu to Cheng Xue's bar, and the three of them became familiar with each other.
You Wu replied with a "good"
Suddenly I remembered that Cheng Xue opened a bar by herself and was quite adept at dealing with people.
She has no idea what is going on now. What exactly does Ke Yanlou mean?
If Ke Yanlou wanted something with her, he shouldn't have dodged when she tried to kiss him just now.
If Ke Yanlou didn't want anything with her, why did he always do things that went beyond the scope of ordinary friends?
You Wu really couldn't figure it out.
Could it be true what Ke Yanlou said, "It's just for fun, don't take it seriously."
"Asshole..." You Wu muttered softly. After hesitating for a long time, she sent a message to Cheng Xue.
Wu [Sister Xue, I have a question for you. ]
Snow [Emotional or work-related?]
Love or work?
Fog [everything?]
Snow【Then you can tell me.】
Fog [I have a friend. ]
Snow【......】
Wu [It's really not me, it's my friend, she recently...]
You Wu thought about it and considered for a long time before sending a message.
Fog [My friend's high school classmate recently became her client, but the client kept blocking her proposal. My friend went to ask the client what he meant, but the client's attitude was unclear.]
Cheng Xue's message came back quickly.
Snow【Has Ke Yanlou become your client?】
You Wu: “…”
Wu [I already said it was my friend, not me. ]
...
On Friday night, when You Wu was still worrying about the plan, Chen Jiayu, who was the most concerned, insisted on going to the bar.
You Wu couldn't persuade her. After all, it was Chen Jiayu's birthday. He had wanted to have a good meal with Chen Jiayu the day before, but Ke Yanlou and Ke Xing also came in and sat down.
In fact, neither Chen Jiayu nor she moved their chopsticks much during the meal, it was like a Hongmen Banquet.
Chen Jiayu sat in the booth, shaking the wine in her glass, and said to You Wu with a smile: "Don't panic, sister, stay calm, we will definitely pass the plan!"
You Wu looked at the half-drunk Chen Jiayu, took a deep breath, and sighed: "You are also very careless."
Chen Jiayu shrugged: "What can I do? Mr. Xiao Ke won't let me through. Am I going to kneel down in front of him and cry out, begging him to let me through, Mr. Xiao Ke?"
Cheng Xue walked over slowly, twisting her waist while smoking a cigarette, snatched Chen Jiayu's wine glass, and sneered at You Wu: "You still say it's not you, but your friend?"
You Wu turned her head away and chose to escape. She didn't really want others to know what happened between her and Ke Yanlou. Although it was essentially innocent and there was nothing to say, it was still a bit unpleasant at the beginning.
There was no story before, and there will be no future after.
Cheng Xue took Chen Jiayu's cup familiarly and took a sip from the cup which still had lipstick marks on it.
Chen Jiayu drooped her eyelids and said angrily: "Your big boss is still drinking my wine?!"
As Chen Jiayu was about to hit Cheng Xue, Cheng Xue raised her hand and pressed Chen Jiayu's forehead, then said to You Wu calmly, "Do you still remember the day you left Nancheng No. 1 Middle School?"
Of course You Wu remembered that it was on that day, Ke Yanlou's birthday, that he threw all the cakes that Ke Yanlou had sent him on the ground. Ke Yanlou was holding a tabby cat in his arms at the time, which You Wu had picked up the day before and gave to Ke Yanlou to raise temporarily.
Under the dim street lights, the chirping of insects confuses people.
You Wu lowered his head, with a strawberry cake next to his shoes.
She didn't even dare to look at Ke Yanlou, she just lowered her head and said what she had in mind: "Ke Yanlou, actually I have always been after your money, I don't like you at all."
Ke Yanlou held the tabby cat in one hand and put the other hand on You Wu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Well, I know, I know that what you like is my money."
You Wu raised her head and stared at Ke Yanlou, hoping that Ke Yanlou would scold her now, preferably calling her a liar and a bad person.
But Ke Yanlou just stared at her quietly: "So I will always have money. Hmm?"
The implication is that I will always have money, and if you like my money, you will like me forever.
You Wu pursed her lips and said, "But I don't like you. I only came to pursue you because I received money from Ke Xingye."
After saying this, You Wu quickly lowered her head. She was wearing worn-out canvas shoes, and the oil stains on the surface showed her embarrassment.
On the other side, Ke Yanlou was wearing a new limited edition sneaker from a famous brand.
The class differences among people are reflected everywhere, and the same is true for shoes.
Some people wear shoes that are worth a month's salary, while others have shoes that are stained white.
You Wu pushed Ke Yanlou away and went in the opposite direction from him, like left and right feet that would never face each other.
"That day, Ke Yanlou came to the Stray Bar to find me." Cheng Xue interrupted You Wu's thoughts.
Cheng Xue put out the cigarette and said to You Wu, "He thought you would come back, so he came to the bar for a month, but you went out of town directly."
You don't need a sword to kill someone, words can just as well be used as a dagger.
You Wu thought it must be because the bar was too noisy, so his head hurt and his nose was sore.
She didn't dare to look at Cheng Xue's eyes.
Cheng Xue's eyes swept across the second floor, and she paused meaningfully at a booth for a while, then looked at You Wu again: "You are quite cruel. I heard that Xiao Ke has a very cold temper. You threw him away like that, it's amazing."
You Wu blinked: "I'll take it as a compliment."
Cheng Xue curled her lips: "If you can't figure out what he means, why not play a game."
You Wu: "What game?"
Cheng Xue shrugged: "It's just a game of feelings. Aren't you the best at playing him?"
You Wu thought Cheng Xue was joking and didn't listen to her at all. Chen Jiayu was drunk and didn't notice that the protagonist in Cheng Xue's words was the respected Party A.
People were coming and going in the bar, but You Wu and Chen Jiayu's seat was the quietest, making them the oddballs in the bar.
"Beauty?"
When Chen Jiayu heard this word, she sat up suddenly.
The handsome guy holding the phone seemed to be blind, and his eyes fell on You Wu: "Can I add WeChat?"
Chen Jiayu exclaimed: "Blind man, you can't see my beauty."
Cheng Xue couldn't help laughing: "You are the most beautiful, okay?"
Chen Jiayu immediately hid in Cheng Xue's arms and rubbed against Cheng Xue: "Woo woo, Sister Xue understands my beauty."
Cheng Xue smiled and gently pushed Chen Jiayu away. After covering the person with a blanket, she walked straight to the second floor.
There was only one person sitting in the booth at the right corner of the second floor. When Cheng Xue passed by that person, she sneered, "You, you are so cunning."
Ke Yanlou was leaning on the sofa with his legs crossed, looking dejected, shaking the wine glass in his right hand, his eyes fixed in the direction of You Wu on the first floor.
You Wu had just added the boy she had been chatting up as a friend, and the bright light from the screen illuminated her face.
Ke Yanlou put down his wine glass, stood up slowly and walked to the railing, put his hands on the railing, stared at the figure downstairs with a cold expression.
Cheng Xue really wanted to give these two a good beating, it was so awkward.
She was too lazy to care about Ke Yanlou and You Wu anymore. One of them arrived at the bar early to wait for someone, but didn't go to look for him when he came, while the other one just talked about it.
Like being sick.
Ke Yanlou stood on a high place, without saying a word, just quietly looking at the floating fog below, like a ghost hiding in the dark, spying on the world.
The protagonist who was being spied on was unaware and drank several glasses of wine with Chen Jiayu.
You Wu is indeed a little drunkard. She likes to drink all kinds of beverages and just treats alcohol as beverages. After just a few drinks, she is as drunk as Chen Jiayu.
The two of them collapsed together and began to complain about everything.
People in their twenties are at a time of confusion. Chen Jiayu complained, "Why did Mr. Xiao Ke block my plan during my birthday?"
You Wu felt a little guilty. She suspected that Ke Yanlou was seeking revenge for personal gain and had implicated Chen Jiayu.
You Wu lay on the sofa, the brilliant light above her head circling in front of her eyes, making her thoughts more and more confused.
She seemed to hear Cheng Xue's voice - "You are the best at playing the game of emotions."
You Wu seemed to have made an important decision. She took out her cell phone and wanted to respond directly to her relationship with Ke Yanlou.
We are all adults, there is no need to hide things, if there is something, we should make it clear.
You Wu's expression was very solemn. Chen Jiayu rolled her eyes at her and said, "Why do you look like a warrior who will never come back?"
You Wu curled the corners of his lips: "You are right."
You Wu typed slowly, but she always felt a burning gaze behind her. She turned around and saw the dance floor behind her and no one was paying attention to her.
But the feeling of being watched did not disappear.
It was like the heroine in a horror movie who couldn't find the source of the cold gaze, and she felt passive and panicked.
The panic ended when You Wu sent the message.
You Wu sent a message to Ke Yanlou [Let’s talk.]
Ke Yanlou did not reply to her.
You Wu does not procrastinate [Can we still be friends after breaking up? 】
You Wu's implication was please don't let personal matters interfere with official business.
Be clear about what you want and be able to let go.
It took a long time for the other side to reply to You Wu.
After You Wu saw Ke Yanlou's recovery in the chaotic light and shadow, he sobered up a lot.
She then realized that she had made a typo when she was drunk, and typed "Can we still be friends after breaking up?" instead of "Can we still be friends after breaking up?"
It's too late to withdraw.
Ke Yanlou’s reply was [After breaking up, we are not friends, but p-friends. ]
