Chapter 67
Gu Jiangkuo didn't receive the invitation to attend the concert until noon the next day.
——The day before, he and Yu Min had a drinking contest that was so intense that he blacked out. He couldn't even remember how he got home or who changed his pajamas... His memory still lingered on the moment when Yu Min lost and went to the bathroom to vomit first.
The hangover wasn't going well. When Gu Jiangkuo woke up and rubbed his aching temple, he saw Young Master Jiang, who was picking out clothes, waving at him. "Awake? Just in time. Which one do you want to wear?"
"?" Gu Jiangkuo was stunned, wondering if he had lost his memory too much, and asked, "Are you going out today?" How come he had no recollection at all?
Jiang Nuo slapped his forehead and remembered, "I forgot to ask you, do you want to go to the concert?"
"Jin Lin's concert?" Gu Jiangkuo vaguely remembered that Jin Lin seemed to have personally given Jiang Nuo the ticket. The man seemed to be very familiar with her. Not only was he arm in arm with Nuo Nuo, he also brought a girl named Xiao Ran with him, and they were both sticking close to his young master.
He didn't want to go to Jin Lin's concert. No matter how popular Jin Lin was, he didn't care.
"Yeah," Jiang Nuo said, "but whose concert it is isn't important; the atmosphere is what's important. It's great to experience it while you're still young. How about it? Want to go?"
"Concerts are the best place to fall in love! Hehe." Jiang Xiaomi, who was squatting on the side playing with the dog, suddenly interrupted.
Gu Jiangkuo: “…I want to.”
Jiang Nuo's interest was piqued, and he asked his brother, "Who did you invite to go with you? Your girlfriend?"
Ever since the last parents' meeting, when the homeroom teacher personally handed Jiang Nuo the comic book, Young Master Jiang has been worried, fearing his younger brother would be led astray. If both brothers were gay...it wouldn't be a problem, but who would inherit the Jiang family's vast fortune? Wouldn't it be a waste?
Unfortunately, in his previous life, Jiang Nuo had never cared much about his younger brother, and didn't know whether he had a boyfriend or a girlfriend. Anyway, Jiang Su had never gotten married until Jiang Nuo died.
Jiang Xiaomi curled her lips and said, "I don't have a girlfriend. Dating affects my studies, so I asked a good brother to come."
Jiang Nuo's mouth twitched: "Your academic performance, do you still need to be affected?"
Forget it, let’s see tonight which brother he invites. If he’s a straight guy, then it won’t be a big problem.
.
In the end, Young Master Jiang picked out the same 'family outfit' for Gu Jiangkuo, Jiang Su and himself. From coats to sweaters to scarves, they were all of the same brand and color.
The main reason is that Mr. Jiang always likes to buy clothes in sets, but there are two men in the family, one big and one small, and neither of them has good aesthetic taste. Therefore, Mr. Jiang often buys three sets at a time because of his wealth, which results in a lot of family outfits.
Since they were going out for entertainment together, they naturally had to wear family outfits. However, Young Master Jiang had not yet realized that when the three of them were together, it was family outfits, but once he and Jiang Xiaomi got separated and it was just the two of them left, in the eyes of outsiders, they would be wearing couple outfits.
The concert started at 8 o'clock. When we entered the venue at 7:30, the outside was full of groups of young people, occasionally mixed with scalpers shouting at the top of their lungs, and there were also people selling glowing bracelets, glow sticks, and stickers. Jiang Nuo, a man with a 30-year-old soul, was also shocked by the youthful atmosphere that came to him.
After entering the stadium, they found that it was packed. It was clearly still half an hour before the official start, but the warm-up host had already come out to interact with everyone. The fans were very cooperative, and the cheers were getting louder and louder. Jiang Nuo felt that his old heart could not withstand the shock, and subconsciously moved closer to the tall and strong Gu Jiangkuo.
When I got closer, I found that Gu Jiangkuo had been holding his lower back with his hands, as if he was afraid that he would be squeezed by others.
At this time, feeling Jiang Nuo approaching, Gu Jiangkuo simply did not block and directly hugged him into his arms. His action was a little ambiguous, but his reason was very upright: "There are so many people around, young master, be careful, don't touch you."
It was almost November in Yanlin and it was already very cold. Gu Jiangkuo was tall and had a high body temperature, like a loyal large dog, taking into account both heating and security functions.
The embrace was too warm, and Young Master Jiang was reluctant to leave. As if to paralyze himself by pretending that this was normal, he changed the subject: "I don't know where Jiang Su went. She disappeared as soon as she entered the door."
"Maybe he went to see his classmates." Gu Jiangkuo's voice came from above his ear. The place was too noisy, so the voice sounded a little low and tense, as if he was very nervous.
It makes people blush and their heart beat fast for no reason.
Mr. Jiang suddenly remembered what classmate Jiang Xiaomi said before they left: "Concerts are the best place to fall in love." Tsk, is it because the atmosphere is too ambiguous?
"We're here. This should be the row." Gu Jiangkuo said.
Jiang Nuo came back to his senses and coughed lightly: "Okay."
"Then let go," Jiang Nuo said, "let's take a seat."
The VIP seats were not as luxurious as one might imagine. They were just closer to the stage. The chairs were the same as those in other places, all hard plastic row chairs. Following the seat numbers on them, going all the way inside, they should be closer to the middle, perhaps the most expensive place in the whole venue. From this point of view, Jin Lin was really generous.
"Excuse me, excuse me."
Neither of them expected the venue to be so popular. The seats were already fully booked before the show even started. They had to ask others to hold their feet back along the way to get there safely. "Number 16, right up front."
"Great, I'm so tired." Jiang Nuo suddenly felt that this trip might be a bit hasty. With his twenty-year-old body, thirty-year-old soul, and eighty-year-old physical fitness, he should go to the concert hall to listen to a symphony that is not appreciated by the general public, instead of squeezing here with young people.
"Excuse me." Mr. Jiang was tired of saying these two words, but the person sitting in seat 15 didn't move.
Young Master Jiang was a little annoyed. He emphasized his tone and repeated, "Excuse me."
“…”
He looked over impatiently and saw a familiar face.
Jiang Nuo: “…………”
Jiang Nuo: What the hell is this haunting thing? Why can I still see you here?
Ding Pingzhou suffered an even greater blow. He had solemnly spent 20,000 yuan on his assistant yesterday, and wanted to say generously: "You keep the rest", but unexpectedly, it was not enough.
Because it was a superstar concert and it was only held one day in advance, the original price of several thousand yuan was raised by more than ten times. Dante Pingzhou still gritted his teeth and added another sum of money to buy the seat.
He was on the verge of bankruptcy and his heart was bleeding.
He thought that after paying so much, he would finally have a chance to have a good chat with Jiang Nuo. However, he didn't expect that he would see from a distance a big man protecting Jiang Nuo and they were wearing couple outfits.
"Ding Pingzhou?" Jiang Nuo didn't hide the disgust in his eyes. "Why are you here?"
Ding Pingzhou thought to himself: Now it seems that I may have come here specifically to be a humiliator.
Why hadn't he considered that Jiang Su's post on WeChat Moments had four tickets, so it was impossible for them to be the only ones coming? But now that he was here, Ding Pingzhou didn't want to miss this opportunity. "Xiao Nuo, I came all the way here just for you..."
But before he could finish his words, Jiang Nuo interrupted him impatiently: "Get out of the way."
"Xiao Nuo, I really know I was wrong! Please give me another chance. We have so many memories together and have been together for ten years. How can I just break up like that—Hmm!"
This time he was moved away physically. Gu Jiangkuo stepped forward, pushed Ding Pingzhou's legs apart, and walked over while protecting Jiang Nuo. When passing by Ding Pingzhou, he did not forget to whisper "sorry".
...It’s better not to apologize!
Ding Pingzhou covered his legs with his hands, feeling desolate. He felt that all his money had been wasted, and moreover, he would probably not be able to get close to Xiao Nuo. There would definitely be Mr. Gu between them.
However, the reality is even more cruel than expected.
Jiang Nuo didn't stop, walked past the two empty seats in the middle, and sat at the other end with Gu Jiangkuo.
"Let Jiang Su and his classmates sit there," Young Master Jiang said disdainfully, "Seeing someone with the last name Ding is unlucky."
"Okay." Gu Jiangkuo naturally had no objection, and considerately left the seat near the middle to Jiang Nuo, and sat on the far right of the four VIPs in the townhouse.
Looking at Ding Pingzhou, who was two seats away: "..."
Ten minutes before the concert officially began, Jiang Su finally returned with his classmates. Ding Pingzhou, who hadn't given up hope yet, immediately seized the opportunity and said, "Xiao Su! I'm Brother Pingzhou. You still remember me, right? Can we switch seats..."
However, before he could finish his words, Ding Pingzhou choked and stared at Jiang Su's classmates without blinking.
Rong Yi noticed his gaze and felt annoyed. Tsk tsk, another one! Seeing him was like losing his mind. Why could such a stupid man be seen everywhere?
"You..." Ding Pingzhou was very excited, "You are..."
□□ Yi's lines were exactly the same as Jiang Nuo's, and his tone was just as cold, "Move aside, thank you."
"Brother Pingzhou, I didn't expect you to be a fan too? What a coincidence! Why are you sitting here? Did my brother buy you the tickets too?" Jiang Su leaned over from behind and said innocently, "That should be the case. My brother is always like this. He always thinks of you when he has something good to offer."
If there were a "whatever topic is irrelevant" competition, Jiang Xiaomi would definitely win. Ding Pingzhou felt as if his heart was stabbed. Then he grasped the key point: "Did your brother buy Rong Yi's tickets too?"
Rong Yi glanced over instantly, eyes full of wariness. Jiang Su said innocently, "Huh? You know my classmate too? Consider it my brother's treat, hehe, after all, he got the tickets. We were already here, but Rong Yi was so polite that he insisted on going out to buy my brother a cup of milk tea."
"Brother! Pick it up quickly! Rong Yi waited in line for a long time to buy this." Jiang Su shouted, "Tsk, there are too many people and I can't hear him. Brother Pingzhou, please move aside. Jiang——! Nu——! Nu——!"
Jiang Nuo finally noticed the commotion over there, but when he saw that the classmate Jiang Su had brought was Rong Yi, his emotions immediately became complicated. Rong Yi was definitely not straight, but at this point, Jiang Xiaomi's sexual orientation didn't seem that important—the more interesting thing was Ding Pingzhou.
Ding Pingzhou has recovered his memories from his previous life, and now he has met Bai Yueguang Rongyi, whom he had been longing for in his previous life, in advance, and in such an occasion. It is simply the right time and place. He must be very happy, right?
But Jiang Nuo was too lazy to care about him. He found that his feelings towards Ding Pingzhou were getting weaker and weaker, and even his hatred seemed not so strong. This man who had been with him for a full ten years in his previous life and had left a strong mark in his life seemed to have gradually become blurred, almost to the point of not recognizing him when they met.
Jiang Nuo was too lazy to pay attention to him, so he naturally didn't notice. After they sat down, Ding Pingzhou tried to strike up a conversation with Rong Yi for the second time, but the response he got was, "Uncle, I'm not an adult yet, can you please stay away from me?"
Young Master Jiang's attention was all on the milk tea that Rong Yi bought for him.
Although this kid is very thoughtful and the milk tea is not expensive and is a token of his thoughtfulness, but...it's so cold, and this naughty kid actually bought iced milk tea.
When Master Jiang touched the cup, he shuddered vigorously, then quickly put it down, put one hand on Gu Jiang's wide legs, and ordered: "It's cold, cover it quickly."
Then, a pair of warm and strong hands came over, and the warmth was immediately transmitted. "Are you feeling better?"
"Yeah." Jiang Nuo raised his head and looked at the slowly rising stage. He didn't pay attention to whether Ding Pingzhou or Rong Yi had any sparks. His eyes never shifted away. He picked up the glow stick with his free hand and waved it like all the young people present. He said, "Your hands are warm. You feel much better."
