The fat man greeted Tang Xiaobao calmly on the phone and then hung up.
But Tang Xiaobao sensitively noticed that the fat man seemed to have encountered something and seemed to be in a bad mood.
He was really a little too calm.
So, Tang Xiaobao shouted, "Don't hang up yet."
Fatty: “What’s wrong?”
Tang Xiaobao: "Did something happen to you?"
Fatty: "No, I'm fine."
Tang Xiaobao: "Where are you now?"
Fatty: "I, I'm at home."
Tang Xiaobao: "Nonsense, if you were at home, I would have taken your last name. I can hear the horn. Tell me where you are. I happen to be in the county town. Let's go out for a drink together. It's my treat."
Fatty: "It's so late, forget it. I'll treat you another day."
He actually rejected Tang Xiaobao's invitation.
This has absolutely never happened before.
Tang Xiaobao felt more and more that something was wrong with Fatty. As Fatty's best friend, Tang Xiaobao was very persistent.
"No, just tonight. Leave all the big things aside. Tell me where you are and I'll come find you."
"Really? Can we do it another day? After tomorrow, I'll treat you to a drink."
Tang Xiaobao: "No, just tonight, we are still brothers. If you don't drink with me tonight, we won't be brothers anymore. I'm in a bad mood, why don't you accompany me?"
The fat man was helpless and said, "Okay, then come over here, I'm drinking."
"What? You're already drunk. Fatty, you're really not nice. Let's talk about the place."
…
After hanging up the phone, Tang Xiaobao drove directly to the bottom of the Xicheng overpass.
After the car stopped, he saw the fat man not far away.
At this time, the fat man was sitting with a beautiful girl, and the two seemed to be arguing about something.
Tang Xiaobao frowned and walked over.
"Hey, Fatty, why are you still arguing? Hey, who is this? Your girlfriend?"
The fat man was startled and turned around to see that it was Tang Xiaobao. He immediately came over and gave him a big hug.
After they sat down, the fat man introduced her to Tang Xiaobao: "Her name is Wu Qian, my girlfriend."
Tang Xiaobao was stunned.
He remembered that the fat man’s last girlfriend was not the one in front of him.
Is this yellow again?
He knew that Fatty was a lovesick person and that they had broken up mostly because of the woman. He didn't ask too many questions and greeted Wu Qian with a smile: "Hello, sister-in-law, I'm Tang Xiaobao, Fatty's best friend."
Wu Qian was also a little excited when she saw Tang Xiaobao.
"Are you really his best friend? I thought he was just bragging. I often heard him talk about you and how you two were close friends. I didn't expect it to be true."
Wu Qian was quite pretty and didn't wear any makeup, looking quite plain. However, she seemed to be hesitant to speak. After she finished speaking, she glared at the fat man fiercely, as if blaming him.
Tang Xiaobao noticed something was wrong and asked, "What were you guys arguing about just now?"
The fat man said, "Nothing."
Wu Qian said: "He——"
"We are brothers talking, so don't interrupt. If you don't want to stay, go back quickly."
I didn’t expect the fat man to yell at Wu Qian.
Wu Qian blushed, glared at the fat man with grievance, and said, "Say it again!"
The fat man pretended not to hear and opened the wine for Tang Xiaobao: "Come on, come on, you are in a bad mood, come, let's drink."
This can be considered as a disguised way of showing weakness to Wu Qian.
Wu Qian stood up, then sat down again and snorted.
Tang Xiaobao and Fatty drank one, then frowned and said, "You must have run into something troublesome, kid."
The fat man said: "No, I'm fine."
"How's business at home?"
"fine."
"Are you really okay?"
"It's really okay."
"If there's anything, remember to tell me. We brothers are family. If I can help you, it's absolutely my duty."
Tang Xiaobao said.
The fat man was a little touched, but without saying anything, he and Tang Xiaobao left again.
The two brothers chatted, ate skewers and drank.
The fat man kept joking with Tang Xiaobao with a smile, but the latter still found that he really had something on his mind.
If it were someone else, Tang Xiaobao would definitely not dig deep to get to the bottom of it.
After all, people don't want to say it.
You can't force people to do things against their will.
But the fat guy was no one else, he was his best friend during his school days, so he still had to find a way to pry open the fat guy's mouth.
Having been desk mates for several years, Tang Xiaobao knows Fatty too well. This guy usually laughs and jokes, but he is absolutely a tight-lipped person. If he doesn't say anything, no one can pry his mouth open.
Tang Xiaobao does have a way to make him speak, such as using magic.
But that's so boring.
How could he let him lose his mind in front of his brother? This is really despicable and not upright enough. The key point is that he feels there is no need for this.
In the end, Tang Xiaobao found the breakthrough point through Wu Qian.
He could see that although Wu Qian didn't say anything, she felt very aggrieved.
With a little guidance and encouragement, she will definitely be willing to talk.
Tang Xiaobao picked up the wine glass and toasted Wu Qian for the first time: "Come on, sister-in-law, let's drink one. I wish you a long and happy life together and a happy marriage soon."
Wu Qian sighed and left with Tang Xiaobao.
Tang Xiaobao asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, you have something to say, right?"
Wu Qian didn't say anything.
Tang Xiaobao didn't give up.
"Fatty and I are brothers for life and death. We are close friends. We are not blood brothers, but we are better than blood brothers. If there is anything, you have to speak up. If he bullies you, tell me and I will help you deal with him! We are like a family, no need to be polite."
Wu Qian said: "It's a blessing for him to have a brother like you, but——"
She stopped talking again.
Moreover, she glared at the fat man again.
Tang Xiaobao turned around and found that the fat man was warning Wu Qian with his eyes.
"Hey, Fatty, are you done yet? You don't consider me a brother, do you?"
The fat man saw that Tang Xiaobao had a stern face and seemed very unhappy.
He was deeply touched and said with a wry smile, "How could that be, my boss? How could I not treat you as a brother?"
"So, are you in some trouble? Tell me the truth!"
Tang Xiaobao snorted.
The fat man lowered his head and said guiltily, "It's not a big problem. I can handle it. You don't have to worry."
"Can you solve it? Can you really solve it? Fatty, I'm not saying anything bad about you. We're getting married tomorrow. Tell me, from the time we met until now, have I ever forced you to do anything? Have you ever asked for anything? Has our family ever asked for anything from you? No, right? It's you who's been so stubborn and insisted on telling my dad about those face-saving things. I've explained everything to him. You can't be blamed entirely on us. Our family doesn't care about that. As long as you treat me well in the future, that's more important than anything else. It's you who's been dwelling on it. Are you interested?"
Wu Qian finally couldn't help but explode.
She asked the fat man a series of questions.
The fat man's face turned red and he lowered his head in shame.
Tang Xiaobao was stunned.
Damn, what on earth is going on?
