Chapter 4 Chapter 4 I'm asking you a question, did you give me the drug? ...
uncomfortable?
That’s a lot.
Chen Luan pinched his thin body and weak muscles. He felt very uncomfortable with the feeling of being rusty and full of minor problems.
And the glands at the back of his neck that still occasionally throbbed and ached reminded him all the time that he was now a drugged and unhealthy beta, not a base instructor with more than a decade of battlefield experience.
Zhou Pei on the other end of the phone was still inviting him to a bar in the Aurora District.
Chen Luan pinched his ears impatiently: "What are you talking about? Give me 5,000 yuan first."
"?"
The other party seemed a little bit unbelievable, and fell silent for a moment.
"I said, give me 5,000 yuan." Chen Luan chuckled and subconsciously reached into his pocket for a cigarette. When he found nothing, he remembered that Jiang Luan didn't have the habit of smoking.
So he grabbed an apple from the fruit bowl carried by a passing servant and chewed it with a crunching sound. "Why, didn't Master Zhou say you'd cover the medical expenses? The total cost was 5,168.34 yuan, and I even rounded off the difference for you."
A kind look that shows consideration for the other person.
"Okay." Young Master Zhou squeezed out a single "OK" in the deafening silence. "I'll transfer the money to you later. Then we'll meet at the Suye Bar at 8pm."
"Oh." Chen Luan ate an apple cleanly. "Is your brother coming?"
"Come. I'll have him formally apologize to you. Do you want me to pick you up?"
"No need."
Chen Luan hung up the phone, went back to change his clothes, and then slowly walked towards the gate of the manor.
【Account receipt: 20000.00 yuan】
Chen Luan raised his eyebrows, happily took the money, and sent a message to Zhou Pei:
【:Boss Zhou is generous [thumbs-up]】
The other party did not reply.
This area is the wealthy area of Qiwei City, with private manor villas of all sizes scattered among the gently sloping mountains.
The Jiang residence is located halfway up the mountain, and there is a quiet lake outside the manor.
Under the night sky, a few stars are reflected on the lakeside.
Chen Luan stopped for a moment and sighed that there is always a shortage of fishermen everywhere.
At that time, there was a logistics officer named Uncle Qi in the S17 base, but no one knew his original name.
The old man is over seventy years old. His biggest hobby is fishing. He often relies on his good legs to follow the collection team to collect supplies and take the opportunity to satisfy his fishing addiction.
On the morning before the beast tide, Uncle Seventh happened to be showing off two big fish half the length of a man, and invited Chen Luan to his place the next day to drink fish soup.
He must have lived to see the day of victory.
The old man is in very good health.
When Chen Luan walked and looked around until he reached the railway station at the foot of the mountain, he realized that the last train had passed.
But he was not panicked. He took out his cell phone and started calling Zhou Pei.
"Boss Zhou, the last bus is gone, can you pick me up?"
The other side seemed to be in a somewhat noisy environment, with chaotic music in the background.
He seemed to be choked by Chen Luan's confident tone before walking to a relatively quiet place: "Send me the location."
Chen Luan sent a location message and found a place to sit down.
I thought Zhou Pei seemed like an okay person.
About seven or eight minutes later, a car suddenly drove over from a distance.
So fast?
Chen Luan raised his head and looked in the direction of the light, only to find that the car seemed a little familiar.
"Hmph."
The car stopped.
When the back window rolled down, Chen Luan realized that it was the Jiang family twins returning from school.
"Chen Luan? What are you doing here?"
Chen Luan glanced at the other person's crooked tie, oh, this is Jiang Ling.
"Wait for the bus, go out for a while." Chen Luan leaned against the lamppost behind him, biting a hard candy in his mouth.
Chen Luan is a bit of a smoker, but Jiang Luan doesn't smoke.
Now it is no longer a war time and there is no need to face life and death every day. Chen Luan simply quit smoking, took a handful of fruit candies from Jiang's house and put them in his pocket, eating one whenever he wanted to smoke.
After finally being reborn in a peaceful era, Chen Luan didn't want to continue ruining his already poor health.
He also wanted to take a good look at this new world.
In the night, most of Chen Luan was submerged in the dark blue shadows, with only a small area of his jaw angle and beautifully shaped lips shining brightly from the light shining down from above his head.
Her beautiful eyes were half-closed lazily, and her cheeks were pushed out into a small round arc by the hard fruit candy.
In the past, Chen Luan always kept his head down in front of Gemini. They had almost never seen each other looking at them straight in the eye or even looking down at them like they were doing now.
Jiang Xun frowned.
Chen Luan's unprecedented posture made him feel a little uncomfortable, but there seemed to be a slight...
novel?
"The last bus has passed. What kind of bus are you waiting for?" Jiang Ling said sarcastically, "Did you take drugs and become stupid?"
"Why don't you let the driver take you?" Jiang Xun asked.
Jiang Xun had wanted to ask this question a long time ago.
In the six years since he came to the Jiang family, Chen Luan never took the initiative to ask the driver to pick him up.
He always regarded himself as a guest living under someone else's roof, being timid and silent.
The Jiang family wouldn't eat people, but they always treated this place as a den of wolves and tigers, living there cautiously, not even daring to order their servants around.
But Chen Luan raised his eyes and spread his hands: "Is that so? But I don't have the driver's contact information."
How could Chen Luan know whether Jiang Luan had the driver's contact information? Anyway, there was no one named "X Driver" in his address book.
But now he says no, then it means no.
The driver wisely handed over his mobile phone to Chen for scanning.
Then you will see the message "The other party is already your friend, please do not add them again!" on the other party's phone.
There was no remark, just a single word "Zheng", which should be the other party's ID name.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.
Chen Luan slapped his head and started to lie: "Oh, I forgot I added you before. Sorry, Uncle Zheng."
"...Master, my last name is Liu. My name is Liu Zheng."
"I'm sorry, Uncle Liu."
"But I'm only thirty years old." Driver Liu touched his bald forehead with some resentment.
Chen Luan: “…”
Chen Luan: "Yeah! Brother Liu."
Too lazy to watch the two performers in front of him, Jiang Ling lightly kicked the back of the chair and said, "Let's go, drive! I'm starving! The food at school is terrible, I need a snack!"
"Buzz—"
The sudden sound of a whistle caught the attention of several people.
Chen Luan turned around and saw a silver-gray car slowly driving over there.
Chen Luan had no idea about the car brands of this era. He only knew that this car looked very expensive, comparable to the Jiang family's, and even the color was more eye-catching.
"Jiang Luan." A handsome face appeared from behind the misty gray car window.
He has strong facial lines, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and wears a pair of gentle silver-framed glasses. He has a very orthodox handsome face.
"Zhou Pei?! What are you doing here?" Jiang Ling was furious and stared at the man in a well-tailored suit in the car window.
The man didn't look at Jiang Ling.
For Zhou Pei, who was 27 years old and had gradually begun to take over the Zhou Group's businesses, there was no need to pay attention to the 15-year-old kid.
But for Jiang Xun and Jiang Ling, this face represents some... not-so-pleasant memories of the twins when the Jiang family was not yet on the rise.
At that time, the 22-year-old Zhou Pei, full of vigor and vitality, pressed his brother Zhou Jing's head and apologized for his brother's bullying behavior, but the undisguised indifference and arrogance in his eyes made Gemini feel uncomfortable.
But Jiang Yongting, a small city councilor at the time, could not afford to offend the behemoth Zhou Group.
So even the not-very-sincere apology seems like charity.
Now 27 years old, Zhou Pei has restrained all his frivolity, but Gemini believes that it is difficult to change human nature.
But neither the original Jiang Luan nor the current Chen Luan knew all this.
So when Chen Luan got into Zhou Pei's car, Jiang Xun immediately frowned slightly, and Jiang Ling even threw his schoolbag down: "Damn it. You have no memory. Drive! Go home!"
Then he immediately rolled up the car window.
On the other side, Chen Luan sat in the passenger seat and crushed the candy in his mouth with a crunch.
"Do these two kids have a grudge against you?"
Zhou Pei glanced at Chen Luan, who was leaning back in the soft chair with his eyes narrowed comfortably. "Some old things. Jiang Luan, you seem to have changed a lot."
In the past, Jiang Luan always sat in the car properly and respectfully called him Young Master Zhou.
Today, he actually called him Boss Zhou in a teasing tone, asked him to pick someone up, and even asked him... for money.
He thought the feeling was a little strange, but it didn't seem bad.
"Me?" Chen Luan looked at the increasingly prosperous city night scene outside the window, took out a candy from his pocket, put it in his mouth, and said slowly and nonsensically: "Oh, I think it's over."
Chen Luan didn’t know what Jiang Luan was like before. From the only photo he had seen, he seemed to be a bit introverted?
It doesn’t matter. At worst, you can just say that you got sick and your brain got damaged, and your personality changed.
There was no conversation along the way until the car arrived at the door of the bar.
Following Zhou Pei through the deafening music and dancing crowd outside, the two soon arrived at a private room.
A group of people inside had already started making a commotion.
There were bottles and jars piled up on the low table, and the air was filled with smoke.
A group of pretty teenagers were dancing on the stage, and several young men with red, orange, yellow, and green hair were whistling below.
But the moment Zhou Pei came in, everyone was paused.
Standing politely amidst the blaring music, they greeted each other one after another: "Young Master Zhou."
——Except the young man who posted photos in the group, Zhou Jing.
The other person was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, holding a coolly dressed boy in his arms. He raised his chin towards his brother and said, "Big Brother."
Chen Luan leaned against the door frame, his eyes curved as he looked at Zhou Pei, who slowly frowned. "Is that how you apologize?"
"Zhou Jing. Stand up."
Seeing his brother's expression was off, Zhou Jing let go of the person in his arms and pouted at Chen Luan behind Zhou Pei: "Brother, I really didn't mean it. Look, nothing happened. Jiang Luanlai, let's clink glasses today and let this matter be over, okay?"
As he said this, he raised the wine glass and was about to bring it to Chen Luan's mouth.
Zhou Pei's expression turned even uglier, and he waved the wine glass away from Zhou Jing's hand: "Zhou Jing. Is this how you apologize?"
The wine spilled all over the floor.
The atmosphere was a little frozen for a moment.
Zhou Pei looked very depressed, and Zhou Jing felt a little embarrassed when his elder brother flattered him in front of all the younger brothers.
"Hey, don't be angry first." Chen Luan walked out with a smile and turned on the headlights of the box with a "click".
The sudden light dazzled everyone present who were used to dim environments.
When he came to his senses, he saw Chen Luan rolled up his shirt sleeves, revealing half of his fair arm, and took a few steps towards Zhou Jing:
"Did you give me the drug?"
Zhou Jing had no idea what Chen Luan was mad about, so he just raised his hand to block out the glaring light: "What are you doing? Turn off the light quickly, I'm going to be blind."
"I'm asking you a question." Chen Luan walked up to Zhou Jing, stretched out his legs, and stepped on the edge of the sofa next to Zhou Jing: "Did you drug me?"
A shadow covered Zhou Jing's face, and the sudden sense of oppression made him feel a little uncomfortable. Just as he was about to yell, he looked up and saw his brother staring at him sullenly. He pushed Chen Luan away and said, "It wasn't me. Yang Qi did it."
"Who is Yang Qi?" Chen Luan asked.
"Yang Qi, don't you recognize him?" Zhou Jing didn't know what Chen Luan was doing and pointed at a green-haired man at the edge of the stage: "Yang Qi, come here and apologize to Young Master Jiang."
As he said this, he kicked the green-haired guy who was walking over and cursed, "Damn it, you're always looking for trouble for me."
Green Hair wasn't angry after being kicked. He came over with a playful smile and bowed to Chen Luan insincerely: "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang. I was just joking with you."
Anyway, Jiang Luan has a very good temper. He has made excessive jokes before, and he just apologized and let it go.
This time he was just curious whether there would be any reaction if the Omega's medicine was given to the Beta.
If there is one, it would be a good opportunity to send him to Young Master Zhou's bed. Maybe Young Master Zhou would be in a good mood and assign him some small projects to make some extra money.
Everyone present knew that Young Master Zhou had taken a fancy to Jiang Luan’s face, which was more beautiful than most omegas.
"Oh? Are you kidding?" Chen Luan looked at the nonchalant Green Hair in front of him with a smile, picked up a beer bottle from the table, and caught everyone off guard.
"Bang!" It hit the opponent's forehead!
Glass shards mixed with foamy wine flew everywhere. There was a moment of silence in the private room, and then a loud cry of surprise broke out.
