Chapter 100 Captain, do you have a girlfriend?
"What are you talking about?" Xiang Yun turned the steering wheel and drove out of the parking space.
The car was well-insulated, so he only saw what Xu Songning and Gu Xing were saying, but he couldn't hear what they were saying.
"Oh, I said I know a KTV with good sound quality, and I told them to follow me there." Xu Songning took out his phone and entered the location for navigation.
She glanced at the rearview mirror and saw the black Porsche following behind them.
Xiang Yun's phone rang, but since he was driving, he called out to Xu Songning, "Help me answer this call."
The phone was in his coat pocket. Xu Songning reached for it, and because the coat was close to his body, his fingers inevitably brushed against his firm waist. "I didn't mean to," he said.
Xiang Yun remained silent.
The person making the call was Gu Xing.
She swiped to open the call and put it on speakerphone. "Hello, Captain Gu, Brother Yun is driving. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"I'm looking for you, not him," Gu Xing said casually.
Xiang Yun glanced at the phone for a second and said to the person on the other end, "What important business could you possibly have?"
Gu Xing retorted, "How am I not busy? It's no fun with just the four of us. Let's call some more people over. I'll call a few friends. Do you mind? If Miss Xu has any friends who want to come, she can invite them too. It's more lively with more people."
“I don’t mind, go ahead and call me,” Xu Songning replied.
Gu Xing didn't waste any more words and went to invite people after hanging up the phone.
Xu Songning hadn't seen Zhou Qiao in a long time. Both of them had been busy lately, so they didn't even have time to chat on WeChat. She decided to ask if Zhou Qiao was done with her work. Since they were going to sing karaoke, they definitely couldn't leave out the karaoke enthusiast.
She tagged everyone in the three-person group chat, "Sisters, let's go to karaoke, there are handsome guys, wanna come?"
Lu Xiaomeng replied the fastest, sending a panda getting angry emoji.
"Sister Xu, I have to go to work, waaaaaah!"
"Whose train has departed?" Xu Songning teased her.
Lu Xiaomeng spammed the group chat with several emojis until Xu Songning promised to take her to see the three cats next time, which finally calmed her down.
Zhou Qiao did not reply to the message.
When they arrived at the KTV, Xu Songning left a message for Zhou Qiao with the KTV location, inviting her to come and visit sometime.
Gu Xing's influence was no joke; in less than half an hour, several friends arrived, including a female captain who was formally introduced to everyone.
Xu Songning was originally sitting next to Xiang Yun, but when she heard that a female captain was coming, she moved closer to her. The female captain was very approachable, and the women chatted happily about all sorts of things.
"Don't just focus on eating and drinking, remember to request a song!" Gu Xing pointed to "Can't Afford to Be Hurt" on the screen and laughed heartily. "Who requested this? Sing it, sing it!"
After singing several non-mainstream songs, it was time for an English song. Gu Xing gestured for them to hand the microphone to Luo Xiao.
Luo Xiao wasn't very familiar with any of them, but he had a good personality, was approachable, and could chat with anyone.
At first, everyone was a little surprised to see a man with a distinctly foreign appearance in the private room. They tried to communicate with him in English, but found that his Chinese pronunciation was even more standard than their own, and they quickly became friends.
Luo Xiao sang heartfelt English songs very well, and several girls in the private room were interested in him, but they didn't dare to go up and ask him directly. So they secretly asked Xu Songning if Luo Xiao had a girlfriend.
Xu Songning shook his head, "I really don't know. You guys go ask them, I'm curious too."
"I don't dare go. He looks so tall, maybe 1.85 meters? If he's any taller, it will be difficult to see his measurements."
"How old is he? He looks about the same age as Captain Xiang."
"Wow, so handsome! Anyone want to ask him?"
"Whoever lost can ask!"
The group was about to play a drinking game, and Xu Songning, who had been watching from the sidelines, was insisted on joining in.
With a one-in-five chance, Xu Songning thought her luck couldn't be that bad. But after the meal, she lost—she actually lost.
"Sister Xu, it's fate! Hurry up and go ask them for us!"
"Don't be shy, Song Ning! We believe in your beauty!"
Xu Songning was pushed forward by the crowd. She didn't hesitate, after all, she had dealt with Luo Xiao before, and he wasn't an unapproachable person. He was just asking a question on her behalf.
It's very simple.
When she walked over, she was holding a whole orange in her hand, kneading it in her hand because it was too hard to peel.
Luo Xiao had just finished singing a song, and he held the microphone in his hand, gently placing it on his knee.
The lights in the KTV flickered, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, piercing one's eyes.
Xu Songning sat down in the open space next to Luo Xiao, glancing furtively in Xiang Yun's direction, and saw that the other was looking down at his phone.
Whether it was because her gaze materialized or because Xiang Yun sensed something, he happened to look up and his eyes met Xu Songning's.
Xu Songning thought to himself, "What a coincidence! Oh well, I'd better ask quickly and then go back and report."
"Miss Xu, is there anything I can help you with?" Luo Xiao asked her.
The KTV was noisy. Xu Songning covered her lips with one hand, leaned close to his ear, and seemed about to say something.
Seeing that she was about to speak, Luo Xiao leaned closer, maintaining a polite distance.
"Captain Luo, do you have a girlfriend?" Xu Songning asked, his eyes completely open.
Luo Xiao could tell that she didn't really want to ask this question; they had plenty of opportunities to ask during their meal.
Luo Xiao's eyes were deep, and when he looked at her, there was a smile in them. "Are you asking for someone else?"
"How did you know? Why didn't I ask myself?" Xu Songning peeled the orange and took a bite.
Luo Xiao smiled and looked down at the man not far away. "I don't have a girlfriend, and I don't have any plans for the time being."
Well, this completely blocks the way, not even a single narrow bridge is provided.
"Roger." (Received)
Xu Songning gestured and returned to the group of girls. Under their concerned gazes, he slowly said, "Captain Luo doesn't have a girlfriend, but..."
"But what?"
“But he doesn’t plan to find a girlfriend,” Xu Songning said, shrugging.
"That's a pity. Never mind, Qatar is too far away, I won't go."
"If you're not going, then I won't go either."
Xu Songning laughed heartily, and the group started gossiping again. When they talked about gossip, someone remembered something related to Xu Songning.
"Hey, Song Ning, did you know? Captain Song, who spread rumors about you before, has switched jobs."
Xu Songning perked up his ears and leaned closer. "What? Changing jobs?"
"Saying it's a job change is just a nice way of putting it; in reality, it's like being given the cold shoulder by the airline and having to sheepishly find another job," the man said.
"What good deed has he done this time?" Xu Songning asked curiously.
The man grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds and cracked them open. "I don't know the specifics, but I heard that he wasn't teaching the new recruits properly, and after they got off the plane, he got into a conflict with the instructor on the same flight. Apparently, they fought, and he was severely punished!"
Xu Songning took a bite of the orange and felt much better. "Serves you right!"
