Chapter 168: Good sisters share the burden
At this moment, Zhou Jingyu called again. Chen Zhan didn't dare to delay and picked up the phone tremblingly. Zhou Jintang gestured for her to press the hands-free button.
It showed that the call was in progress. For a moment, the toilet was very quiet and the phone was also extremely quiet.
"Hello?" Chen Zan asked guiltily, "Why did you make so many calls? Didn't you say you had a dinner party? Didn't it end so quickly?"
Zhou Jingyu didn't answer her question, but asked without any emotion: "Where are you? Why didn't you answer the phone?"
Chen Zhan: "Well, I was watching a movie just now, and my phone was on silent and I didn't notice."
Zhou Jingyu seemed to sneer, "Really?"
Chen Zhan scratched his neck and said, "Ah...yes."
Zhou Jingyu's voice remained unchanged as he slowly asked, "Now what, the movie is over, where are you? Do you want me to pick you up?"
Chen Zhan was scratching his head, and Zhou Jintang said, "Brother, my sister-in-law is with me. Don't worry. We finally got together for a day. We'll get our nails done before we go back."
Zhou Jingyu was obviously unconvinced: "Doing your nails late at night?"
Zhou Jintang said nonchalantly, "Second brother, you don't understand. It's popular to do it at night now. It doesn't waste time, and you can drink while doing it. I'm going to take my sister-in-law for a drink. You can't even not let her drink, right?"
The eldest lady thought this excuse was perfect, and even had an excuse to smell of alcohol when she got home later.
Zhou Jingyu was almost too lazy to listen to Zhou Jintang's nonsense, "Zhanzhan, go ahead."
Chen Zhan was panicking and hesitated, "Will you believe me if I tell you?"
Zhou Jingyu chuckled, "That depends on what you say. I'll consider whether to believe it or not."
But that laugh somehow revealed a chilling feeling.
Zhou Jintang winked at her frantically. "The nightlife outside has just begun. Are you going to succumb to your second brother's tyranny so early? Are you going home so early?"
Chen Zan felt that those handsome young men in the booth outside were not little fairies. The real little fairies were right in front of him.
She gritted her teeth and said to Zhou Jingyu on the other end of the phone, "Jintang and I are going to play outside for a while. You can go to sleep at home first. No need to wait for me. I'm hanging up."
After saying that, without waiting for Zhou Jingyu on the other end to speak, he hung up the phone very firmly.
Zhou Jintang gave her a thumbs-up in worship, "Sister-in-law, that's how it should be."
As soon as the two came out of the bathroom, they saw Jiang Cheng and the two male internet celebrities who were already familiar with Zhou Jintang waiting outside.
At that moment, Chen Zan felt a sense of relief from the bottom of his heart. Has he become a scumbag who doesn't want to come home at night?
Jiang Cheng asked, "Sister Jiang Lai asked us to come over to see if you need any help?"
Chen Zhan: "Then you'd better not come to help."
That's just adding fuel to the fire.
As they walked outside, Zhou Jintang uttered a strange "Why did the music stop?"
If she hadn't said anything, Chen Zan wouldn't have noticed.
Jiang Cheng: "It was fine just now."
Zhou Jintang said indifferently: "Well, who cares."
After saying that, he walked back and turned back to the booth.
But when Chen Zan and Zhou Jintang saw the model guys and little stars who stayed in the booth squatting in a row with their heads in their hands, they were surrounded by several burly bodyguards in black, as if they had encountered an anti-pornography team.
Two men appeared on the black leather sofa in the booth. One of them was a mixed-race man with deep facial features. His shirt was tight on his muscles and his face looked cold and creepy.
The other one was sharp and handsome, his shirt rolled up to his elbows and two collars undone, and you could vaguely see the teeth marks left by someone last night. The glance he gave was gloomy.
The bar, which was originally bustling with activity, suddenly became silent.
The smiles on Chen Zan and Zhou Jintang's faces froze in an instant. Zhou Jintang reacted quickly and subconsciously hid behind Chen Zan. Chen Zan moved his feet and quietly took two steps back.
Jiang Lai stood by and played statue, cursing Zhou Jintang in her heart. She had agreed to come over to play and not get caught, but unfortunately, two evil spirits showed up on the first day of her bar opening.
Chen Zan wanted to slip away, but Zhou Jingyu glanced at him and made him stand at attention obediently.
The man didn't say anything, just played with the lighter in his hand. The sound of the windproof cover opening and closing was even more terrifying than the death-threatening suona, and each sound struck the fragile little heart.
Zhou Jintang was about to cry. She gently tugged at Chen Zhan's clothes from behind and said, "Sister-in-law, think of a solution."
Chen Zan was about to cry. What about the solution you promised me?
Jiang Cheng next to him was still confused. What was going on? Did he encounter gangsters?
Just as he was about to speak, Han Chen gave a look, and the burly bodyguards immediately came over and pulled Jiang Cheng and the other two over.
Others wanted to resist, but Jiang Lai didn't want to cause trouble, so he quickly said, "I'll give you the resources and money, but you just have to stay still and don't say anything."
Jiang Cheng and his companions tactfully squatted in a row.
Now that there was no one blocking their way, Chen Zan and Zhou Jintang were even more exposed to the man's sight.
Zhou Jingyu raised her eyelids and looked at Chen Zan. Her eyes were wandering, looking up at the sky and down at the earth, but she didn't dare to look at him.
After a long while, Han Chen spoke first, "Second brother, I didn't take good care of Jin Tang tonight. How about you take Miss Chen back first and let me take care of the rest?"
When Zhou Jintang heard the old man say this, he immediately popped his head out from behind Chen Zhan in dissatisfaction, "What trouble have I gotten myself into? Stop slandering me."
Zhou Jingyu just glanced at her indifferently, and the latter shrank back.
I thought to myself, she is not a coward, it’s just that there are more people on the other side and she, a weak woman, cannot defeat them.
Zhou Jingyu stood up and came over with Chen Zan's coat and handbag, bringing a heavy sense of oppression that made people feel afraid.
The more he took a step forward, the more violently Chen Zan's chest pounded, and he took a step back.
Zhou Jintang quickly moved to the side, fearing that he would be implicated, and gave Chen Zan a look that said, "Take care, sister-in-law."
Chen Zhan: “…”
We said we would be good sisters for life, so we should share the burden together when something goes wrong?
Zhou Jingyu's eyes lightly swept across the smoky makeup on her face and fell on the pitifully small amount of suspender fabric on her body.
The line of his lips was straightened, and there was a gloomy look between his eyebrows.
He raised his hand to put the coat on her and buttoned it up, covering all the exposed skin. He felt a little relieved. When his bony and slender fingers touched the area above her collarbone, he could clearly feel her tremble slightly.
Zhou Jingyu finally said the first sentence since then: "Didn't we say we were going to watch a movie and get our nails done? Why are you shaking?"
Chen Zhan looked at him, his lips curled up, and he looked extremely aggrieved. He gently tugged at his sleeve and said, "Give me some face. I'll explain it to you when I get home, okay?"
Zhou Jingyu looked at her little expression, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he felt that she couldn't just act coquettishly and he would easily forgive her.
"I'll take the person away first, and leave the rest of Zhou Jintang to you."
After Zhou Jingyu finished speaking to Han Chen, he turned around and glanced at Zhou Jintang with a cold look.
She almost slid to her knees in an instant, "I'm sorry, second brother. My sister-in-law and I were just dazzled by the outside world and were momentarily bewildered. We absolutely had no intention of destroying your relationship. Please forgive me, wuwuwu..."
Chen Zhan: “…”
