Chapter 20
Yang Mingzhou suddenly realized that the bond between these two people was deeper than he thought.
The restaurant was actually booked by Yang Mingzhou on the spur of the moment. He knew that Yan Qing came to Beicheng last night and was woken up by Ming Xu in his sleep.
Two hours later, the three finally arrived at their destination.
"How is it?" Yang Mingzhou was a little proud and winked at Ming Xu.
It is located by the window on the 29th floor, overlooking the entire North City night view.
The waiter brought the menu. Yang Mingzhou didn't care what to eat. Besides, he wasn't the main character today, so he leaned back in his chair lazily waiting for the main character to order. Yan Qing pushed the order to Mingxu: "You guys order."
"Okay." Ming Xu did not refuse and looked through the menu carefully.
"Ming Zhou?"
When Yan Qing heard the voice, he looked up and saw a girl dressed elegantly. He looked over and saw a friend next to her.
Yang Mingzhou probably recognized the voice, was stunned for a moment, slowly turned his head, and when he saw the person who was speaking clearly, he squinted his eyes, stood up, lowered his voice and said something to Yan Qingming, then pulled out a chair and walked over.
The woman was somewhat delighted to see Yang Mingzhou coming over, but the person next to her revealed a hint of disgust without concealing it.
Yan Qing touched the menu with his cup, and Ming Xu looked up: "What's wrong?"
According to her gaze, the two people over there also saw Ming Xu and nodded in greeting.
"Yang Mingzhou's love tribulation." Ming Xu mentioned it casually.
"ah?"
"Do you want to add anything else?" Ming Xu stopped talking about Yang Mingzhou and looked up at Yan Qing.
The waiter next to us repeated the order.
"No."
At this time, Yang Mingzhou had already taken the girl out of their sight, but Yan Qing still saw another girl sitting not far from them.
Seeing Yan Qing's interest, Ming Xu spoke up, "They were childhood sweethearts and had been together since high school. The girl went abroad for college, and he went to visit her on her birthday. He saw her with a foreigner, and they broke up. But she still doesn't know that Yang Mingzhou saw his girlfriend cheating on him."
Yan Qing was stunned. No wonder Yang Mingzhou now had the image of a playboy.
"Do you think that he is like this now because of that girl?"
Yan Qing's expression had already answered for her.
"It was indeed because of her. After he broke up, his female friends thought he was cheating and spread rumors everywhere. His parents also believed it. During his four years at university, Yang Mingzhou never took a penny from his family."
Yan Qing suddenly felt sorry for this person: "So he worked part-time for his four years in college?"
"How could it be possible, Young Master? I spent a lot on him during my four years in college."
Thinking of the past, Ming Xu was a little moved, "No one knows about this."
In addition to Mingli, because he also made a lot of contributions.
Just as the two finished their words, the protagonist came back. Seeing the strange looks from the two, Yang Mingzhou curled his lips and looked shy: "Why are you looking at me like that? It's really embarrassing."
"fine."
He was still cheerful, and pointed to the nearby buildings with pride and said to Yan Qing: "See, those two tallest buildings over there are both owned by my sister."
Looking in the direction he pointed, Yan Qing saw the two buildings standing in the center.
"I'm not very capable, but my sister is amazing. I'll let you meet her when I get a chance. She's a workaholic and flies all over the world except during the Chinese New Year."
Speaking of this, Ming Xu nodded: "Yes, my brother is her negative example."
The eldest brother of the Ming family? Yan Qing was a little confused. How could he become a negative example?
"No parent would consider someone who loves playing games as a role model to inspire others."
It seems to be like this, Yan Qing lowered his head and chuckled.
Looking at the night view of North City, she was lost in thought. All those things happened here. If it weren't for him, she probably wouldn't have come back.
In the voice room.
There was only the crackling sound of the keyboard. Yan Qing was using a laptop, which was a bit inconvenient when playing games. At Ming Xu's suggestion, she bought a keyboard. The moment she opened the package, Yan Qing's face was full of excitement, and even her roommate joked that it was a gift from her boyfriend.
"This keyboard is very easy to use. I asked my roommates, and they don't mind the loud noise."
When Yan Qing talked about this, her roommates all said they could use it: "The three of us have been playing games since freshman year. You play until very late every day and never say anything. You can use it, it will also ease our guilt a little."
The other three roommates were all game addicts. On the first day of school, they made an appointment to play games together and asked Yan Qing about it, but Yan Qing refused. At first, the three were worried, but after a while, they found that Yan Qing was not as indifferent as he said.
For this reason, the three of them also paid for the dormitory's electricity and water bills for three years, which made Yan Qing feel a little embarrassed.
"This one is more suitable for you to use in the dormitory. I will buy you a better one after you graduate and live on your own."
Yan Qing was a little flattered: "No need, this one is very good and can be used for a long time."
Ming Xu didn't answer her: "Join the group and try the new keyboard."
Since that incident, Yan Qing has become more and more familiar with the gang members, and she volunteered to call a wet nurse.
"Entertainment Bureau, just play around."
The nurse was a little nervous at first. Ming Xu didn't say a word except to report some skills. Thanks to Yan Qing who kept communicating with the nurse, after the fight, the nurse weakly requested: "Can I come to the next fight?"
This sentence seems to be asking Yan Qing again, but in fact it is asking the person who really has the say.
Yan Qing sounded very happy: "Of course, I'll call you next time."
After the nanny left, Yan Qing did not notice Ming Xu's emotions. She had recently become obsessed with a new activity in the game, and was busy when she heard a faint voice coming from the headphones.
"Why aren't you talking to me?"
Before she could react, she was the only one left in the voice room.
Is he angry? Yan Qing stared at the screen and opened the dialog box between them.
[Just Eat Spicy Hotpot]: You haven't started your new event yet, right? Let's do it together. It's faster to give it to two people.
[My favorite coal briquettes]: Make them yourself.
[Just eat spicy hot pot]: Are you angry?
[Favorite coal briquettes]: No.
A voice message popped up on Mingxu's screen. Three seconds later, the call was connected. His voice was dull: "What's wrong?"
The other end didn't seem to be affected by his emotions, and said in a very cheerful voice: "Don't be unhappy."
"I'm not unhappy."
"Is it because of the competitive game tonight? You don't want to play with her?"
The fourth person did not show up today, and Yan Qing was not very familiar with the nanny, so she naturally guessed that Meiqiu didn't want to play with her.
After saying that, he fell into silence.
"You've been talking to her."
Yan Qing finally realized that he was the culprit who made the other person unhappy, but he couldn't help but make excuses for himself: "You were always like this before, never caring about these things."
"What does it look like?"
"A cold-blooded hero."
Ming Xu laughed when he heard Yan Qing address him. "In your heart, am I a cold-blooded and heartless person?"
He asked this question out of selfish desire to know what Yan Qing thought of him.
"It was like that before," Yan Qing paused, "but it seems different now."
That was the end of it. She didn't say anything and he didn't ask.
Most of the people in the restaurant were young couples or married couples on dates. There were only the three of them, eating their own food without any communication.
"You guys eat first, I have something to do and I'll leave first."
Yan Qing glanced at the food on Yang Mingzhou's plate. It was still half full, which clearly showed that something urgent had happened.
Seeing him leave in a hurry, Ming Xu answered her question: "I wonder which girl it is again."
"Ex-girlfriend?" Yan Qing was puzzled and frowned.
Bar box.
This should have been the busiest place, but now it was silent. Everyone looked at each other and no one spoke.
The door was kicked open from the outside.
Everyone inside looked up at the same time. Yang Mingzhou glanced around and came to a person.
"You're here." Seeing the rescuer, the girl hiding in the corner grabbed his arm and looked up at him. I felt pity for her.
"Yang Mingzhou?"
The two were attracted by another voice and looked over, and saw another familiar face.
After Chen Jiangyue and her friend met Yang Mingzhou by chance in a restaurant, they left after a short while. When they came out, another friend happened to be celebrating his birthday at a bar and called them over.
Unexpectedly, everyone had an unpleasant argument because of talking about the past. One of the girls was invited by the person who was celebrating the birthday, but now she was blamed. In desperation, they called Yang Mingzhou.
"Young Master Yang is such a playboy. He just ignored his girlfriend? Are you not afraid that she will be angry if you come to save her?"
Yang Mingzhou didn't want to stay any longer and just wanted to take the person away. He didn't expect Chen Jiangyue's friends to make random guesses about him and Yan Qing. His face was no longer very good, and his tone was no longer friendly: "Watch your mouth."
The man raised his cell phone without any expression and challenged Yang Mingzhou: "We have all the photos, so don't hide it." After saying that, he looked at the girl who was pulling Yang Mingzhou.
The girl was also a little surprised and quickly let go of Yang Mingzhou: "I can go explain to your girlfriend."
Yang Mingzhou glanced at her and said, "His boyfriend was right next to her at the time."
After he finished speaking, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes. He stared at Chen Jiangyue and warned her bluntly, "Control your friends and delete the photos. If you dare to say anything nonsense again, Mingxu will be no easier to deal with than I am."
Not many people in the box knew Ming Xu, but they had all heard about his brother Ming Li from their parents, so they could guess the relationship between the two with just a little thought.
Chen Jiangyue was a little embarrassed when she was called out, but she still maintained her personality and said in a gentle voice, "Mingzhou, don't be angry. I will tell her."
After watching the two of them leave, the door of the box closed and the people inside left one after another with excuses, leaving only Chen Jiangyue and Chen Xue.
"Sister, I won't give up." Chen Xue sat on the sofa in a huff, looking at Chen Jiangyue reluctantly as she deleted everything from her photo album.
Chen Jiangyue glanced at her sister and comforted her softly, "Xiaoxue, Mingzhou did nothing wrong. Don't be such a big enemy to him."
Yang Mingzhou sent the girl home and was about to leave when he was stopped again.
"I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, this wouldn't have happened today."
Yang Mingzhou smiled and said, "It's okay. Have a good rest."
Coming out of the restaurant, Ming Xu looked at the message on WeChat and sneered.
"The taxi queue is 130."
"Forget friends when you see beauty." Ming Xu commented while gritting his teeth.
It takes several subway changes to get back to the hotel from here. Yan Qing and Ming Xu shuttled through the crowd and finally squeezed into the subway. Yan Qing was squeezed so hard that he almost collapsed.
Ming Xu saw her expression and took the opportunity to move her to the corner of the door while someone got off the car.
"We'll be there soon."
Yan Qing felt like she could breathe again: "It's so late, and there are still so many people here. I don't remember there were so many people when I was in school."
"Do you often go out to play during school?"
Yan Qing glanced at him and said, "Go find Mingshu. We meet every week."
Not hearing Ming Xu's voice, Yan Qing raised her head to look at him with difficulty, "What are you thinking about?"
