What a bad temper
At twelve o'clock in the morning, in a bar near Z University, the atmosphere was extremely hot.
"Drink! Drink! Drink!"
There was only a sharp whistle, accompanied by thunderous cheers and shouts from the people around. The two people at the table quickly picked up the oversized cups of clear yellow beer with thick white foam and rushed to pour it into their open mouths. A large amount of liquid gushed out of their mouths before they could swallow it. One stream after another almost soaked their clothes, pushing the atmosphere of the whole place to a climax.
The people sitting in the booths also stopped playing games and watched the wonderful scene with interest, and some even raised their mobile phones to record the video.
The two men standing at the bar outside the encirclement stared at the man sitting in the booth with sour expressions, "Xie Yunchao appears to be a gentle gentleman, but he actually booked out the entire bar for a party to celebrate after returning from a trip. He has so much money that he's wasting it. It's really unbearable to see him being so extravagant."
"Tsk, who do you think he's doing this for? Open your eyes and look at the person sitting next to him. Haven't you had enough of her gossip these past few days? It seems like he came back in such a hurry because of this."
"What? So what's going on between the two of them... I didn't realize Xie Yunchao is quite infatuated."
"Infatuated?" The person who spoke turned around and looked at the person next to him. "Hey, buddy, you're not from our department, are you?"
"He can be considered infatuated, and Lü Ziqiao can be considered a peerless romantic. Don't think he's a good guy. He and Song Yu are just two troublemakers. I heard that they were childhood sweethearts. It's true that birds of a feather flock together. Tell the girls in your courtyard not to mess with Xie Yunchao. You'll be so sad that you won't even have a place to cry."
"Oh my god, why don't these two evils just digest it internally?"
"Who knows?" The boy glanced at the booth where laughter and chatter were constantly coming from. "It's just that he's so cheap."
"Open, yes, I win again! Hahahahahahaha, Song Yu, drink quickly."
Song Yu looked at the dice cup and immediately closed his eyes in pain, "Why is it me again? I've almost lost seven games."
"You have to accept the consequences of your bet, do you understand? Hurry up, don't try to cheat." A girl from the same department said in a greasy voice, pointing at Song Yu.
"Xie Yunchao, Song Yu's luck is really bad today. He's lost to me seven times in a row." The girl smiled and approached the man sitting next to her and said, "Do you think I'm good?"
Xie Yunchao didn't turn around to look at her, his eyes fixed on the table. After hearing this, he smiled and said, "Yeah, you're really amazing."
Before the girl could even curl her lips, she heard him say, "Then why don't you let her win the next round? You've already won so much anyway."
The girl's smile froze on her face. Just as she adjusted her expression and was about to say something else, the man in front of her had already crossed the table and sat next to Song Yu. He took the wine glass from her hand and drank it all.
Song Yu looked stunned, "What are you doing?"
"You can't drink anymore." Xie Yunchao stopped her from reaching for another drink, his slightly upturned peach blossom eyes filled with disapproval. "If you get drunk and act crazy later, I won't have time to take care of you."
"Who said that..." Song Yu lost her temper mid-sentence. She held back her anger and said, "I told you, it was an accident."
"Accident?" Xie Yunchao raised an eyebrow. "That's not what the forum said."
Song Yu became even more furious when he heard this. "Forum, forum, do you believe me or the forum?"
"seeing is believing."
Song Yu immediately rolled his eyes and said, "I'm too lazy to talk to you." Then he rushed to the center of the dance floor.
Suddenly one person was missing, and the originally lively atmosphere at the table instantly cooled down. Xie Yunchao sat in the booth, slowly drinking the wine in his glass without saying a word. The people around him looked at each other, not wanting to offend him easily, and no one dared to speak for a while.
A girl with long curly hair sitting next to him glanced at Xie Yunchao, whose face was frighteningly cold. She thought that he was in a bad mood because of Song Yu's criticism. To ease the atmosphere, she smiled and asked, "Xie Yunchao, are Xu Qiao and Song Yu already together?"
"I have a friend who really likes Xu Qiao and was planning to confess his feelings to her recently..."
She didn't finish her words, but everyone understood what she meant.
Xie Yunchao downed the wine in his glass in one gulp. The exquisite glass made a soft thud when he placed it on the table. He then raised his eyelids and looked at the girl with a cold look in his eyes. "I'm telling you, it doesn't matter if you're friends. If you like me, just confess. Don't be afraid to do it."
When Song Yu finished dancing on the dance floor and returned to the booth, he saw Xie Yunchao sitting alone in the middle of the booth, playing with a cold, hard dice with one slender finger. The ice in the wine glass next to him had melted completely, leaving a thin layer of frost on the wall of the glass.
"What's going on? Where are the others?" she asked curiously.
"Just leave. You see I'm boring and don't want to play with me anymore." Xie Yunchao had a smile on his face. He casually threw the dice in his hand into the cup next to him, making a series of crisp tinkling sounds.
In fact, at the beginning she just wanted to welcome Xie Yunchao, and she never thought that he would actually book the whole place for a party. There were too many people before and she didn't have the chance to talk, so now is the perfect time.
This man had gone abroad without saying a word before. As friends for so many years, she had seen enough of Xie Yunchao's willful behavior. Seeing that he seemed very busy, she did not ask him about the reason for his sudden departure. She just thought that he was bored and went abroad to have some fun.
"I haven't asked you how your trip was. Was it fun?" Song Yu asked casually after taking a sip from his cup, "Why didn't you bring me any gifts?"
"My flight was too rushed, so I didn't make it in time." Xie Yunchao said, "But you, I've only been gone for less than a week, and I see your name has been around quite a bit. You're on the hot posts on the forum every day."
"Someone just asked me if you were dating Xu Qiao from the mathematics department."
“…” Will these people ever stop?
Xie Yunchao observed the expression on Song Yu's face, "Are you still hiding this from me?"
Seeing Song Yu's speechless face, Xie Yunchao immediately laughed and grabbed her shoulders, "I'm just kidding, don't take it seriously."
"You're single now, would you like me to introduce you to some handsome men?" Xie Yunchao asked teasingly, "As the saying goes, the best way to forget a relationship is to start the next one."
"Come on, when have you ever really introduced anyone to me?" Song Yu grabbed his hand and threw it aside, obviously no longer trusting him at all.
Xie Yunchao was not angry at being told this, and sat calmly beside him. Suddenly, he remembered something and paused playing with the dice in his hand. "I'm going to have a holiday in a few days. How are you going to plan it?"
She almost forgot that May Day is in a few days. No wonder the little mute sent her messages saying that working people are the most glorious every day recently.
"I don't have any plans. I'm going back to Palm Township."
Xie Yunchao suddenly became interested. "Become a teacher again? Can I go this time?"
"No." If the little mute saw Xie Yunchao, considering how much she loved looking at handsome guys, she would probably be pulled by the sleeve and asked about Xie Yunchao's recent situation every time she went there. Thinking of that scene, Song Yu got goosebumps all over her body.
"She's afraid of strangers. If you go there, she'll probably hide in her room and not dare to come out."
Knowing the general situation of the little mute, although he was very interested, Xie Yunchao finally did not say that he wanted to go.
Looking at the time, it was already three o'clock in the morning. People in the venue had already started to retreat one after another. There were obviously fewer people than before. Song Yu picked up his clothes, said goodbye to Xie Yunchao, and prepared to go back.
She didn't drink much this time and was still very clear-headed. The bar was close to the school, so it was no problem for her to go back alone. But when she really wanted to leave, Xie Yunchao followed her out and said he would take her home.
"Why did you follow me out? I'm not drunk and can go back by myself." Song Yu turned around and asked Xie Yunchao who walked out of the bar.
Xie Yunchao looked around and said, "You're not drunk, but the others may not be. Let's go, don't waste time."
There is a bar almost every few steps on this street. Looking around, the doors are almost all filled with drunk people. They stagger and fall into others after every few steps, and then fall to the ground and sleep motionlessly. They look like corpses. There are also a steady stream of "corpses" walking out of the bars on the roadside. If Song Yu really plans to go back alone, the chance of not encountering them is almost zero.
There have been several drunken fights here in the past, so bad that the entire street was closed for business and was only gradually reopened recently.
Thinking about the possibility of running into a disgusting drunkard if he went back alone, Song Yu's scalp went numb. "Got it, let's go."
Suddenly, the phone in her hand vibrated and a message appeared in the notification bar.
【Mom: Come back tomorrow.】
Song Yu glanced at the time and it was indeed three o'clock in the morning.
[Song Yu: I have a full day of classes tomorrow, so I can't come back.]
Mom: After all these years of studying, are you crazy enough not to ask for leave? Ask yourself how long it's been since you came home. Why is it so difficult for you to come back?
Song Yu: What are you going back for? Is it worth it for you to send me a message at 3am in the middle of the night?
[Mom: Just reply when I ask you to. Why are you asking so many nonsense questions?]
[He brought his mistress home again, you have no place to sleep, right?] The girl's slender white fingers hovered over the phone screen for a long time, and finally deleted the sentence.
[Song Yu: Got it.]
When Xie Yunchao saw Song Yu, who was walking peacefully, stop to reply to a message, he also stopped. Because this bar street was close to the school, almost all the people walking in groups of three or four were students from their school.
"Xu Qiao, thank you so much for today. I looked everywhere for people, but you're the only one still awake so late. It's a good thing you came, otherwise we girls wouldn't dare to walk this distance alone."
The girl looked at the broad-shouldered and long-legged man standing in front of her with great surprise. She thought he would not come so late. She felt a sense of superiority from the hidden envy of her friends around her, so she took a step forward and wanted to stand closer to the boy, but she didn't expect to feel obvious avoidance as soon as she got close.
"Nothing." The man replied calmly, "I just stopped by after dinner with a friend."
Xie Yunchao looked at the small group of people walking in front of him. Among them, the man walking on the side attracted the attention of people around him because of his outstanding height and perfect figure that was very obvious even in the sweatshirt.
A hint of interest flashed in Xie Yunchao's eyes. He lowered his head and touched Song Yu, who was still looking at her phone, to signal her to look. "Hey, why don't you go up and say hello to your rumored boyfriend?"
Song Yu looked up, confused, and saw a group of people walking in front of him. He casually replied, "What nonsense! It's just a classmate I don't know very well."
As soon as he finished speaking, his originally unfocused gaze met a dark and quiet look coming from the front. The corners of his eyes slightly raised, and his gaze briefly moved between the two people before settling on Song Yu's face.
Seeing him turn around, Song Yu smiled and mouthed to him, "You're so lucky."
It seemed as if he found it annoying to look at her any longer. After saying this, Xu Qiao immediately turned his face away and never looked back again along the way.
Song Yu couldn't help but roll his eyes when he got rejected for no reason. Why was this guy so bad-tempered that he wouldn't even allow me to praise him? He hadn't provoked him at all.
