Two minutes later, Bai Qian came back dejectedly. Without saying a word, he lowered his head and held his mobile phone, typing at an extremely fast speed.
Yu Rou's phone vibrated, and Bai Qian's WeChat message came again.
Bai Qian: [I failed, completely failed. I offered to buy him a drink and asked him a few questions, but he ignored me. Then I asked him if he thought the girl sitting across from me was pretty.]
Yu Rou: [And then?]
Bai Qian: [He said he didn't notice, which was definitely a lie. I asked for his phone number again, but he said he didn't want to give it to me. He also asked if I had anything else to do. If not, he had friends coming over later and told me not to sit here. I was so angry.]
Yu Rou suppressed her laughter, "It's quite infuriating."
Bai Qian leaned back, sighed, and said, "How about you give it a try?"
Yu Rou shook her head: "No, it's not my cup of tea."
She was too lazy to type, thinking that the other party was so indifferent that he wouldn't care about their conversation, so she just spoke directly.
Bai Qian, feeling depressed and full of resentment, saw that she didn't send a WeChat message, so she said, "I don't care if you don't drink today, you have to drink with me until I feel relieved."
"Okay." She had nothing else to do anyway. The divorce was tomorrow afternoon, so she could sleep until she woke up naturally in the morning.
Bai Qian looked up at the two glasses of vodka she had left on the man's table, wanting to see if he would drink them. Unexpectedly, the waiter walked over and, at the man's request, took the wine away and brought it back to Bai Qian and her friends' table.
"The gentleman asked me to bring it over." The waiter spoke in unfluent Chinese and looked at Yu Rou shyly.
Bai Qian rolled her eyes, picked up a glass of wine in a somewhat ungraceful manner, and took a big gulp in a hurry.
"Cough cough..." Bai Qian was choked by the spiciness.
Yu Rou said to the waiter, "Can I have a glass of milk?"
“Yes…yes.”
"Wait." Bai Qian stopped the waiter who was about to leave and ordered a few more glasses of wine.
Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Yu Rou stopped trying, "How are you going to get home after drinking so much?"
"Don't worry about me. I can get someone to pick me up with just one phone call. What about you? Does Gan Lie know you're coming out?"
"I don't know." Yu Rou picked up the drink and took a sip. "He doesn't live at home."
"No way? Separated?" Bai Qian sat up straight.
"Not really." Yu Rou thought about it. Gan Lie was kicked out by the original owner. He probably lives in an apartment near the company recently.
"Are you two going to break up?" Bai Qian keenly noticed that Yu Rou's tone was wrong.
Yu Rou smiled but said nothing.
Bai Qian was shocked. "Could I be right?"
"Are you surprised?" Yu Rou said with a smile.
"Of course... uh... actually I'm not that surprised. I've felt for a long time that you two wouldn't last, but I thought Gan Lie could tolerate you forever." Bai Qian shrugged and said with some emotion: "Back then, you and Gan Lie were celebrities in school. Everyone knew how Gan Lie felt about you, but you just didn't believe it and even repelled him. All the girls in the school felt sorry for him behind his back... Of course, that doesn't include me. But... from an outsider's perspective, Gan Lie treated you very well. I remember that when you two got married, the most beautiful girl in our class cried." Bai Qian was drunk and talked more.
"It's been a long time." Yu Rou also recalled. Although it was not her own memory, perhaps she had some empathy in this body, and she suddenly felt a little sad.
"Are you really going to get a divorce?" Bai Qian played with the wine glass, her eyes a little blunt.
"Is that so." Yu Rou pursed her lips and raised her elegant chin slightly. Her expression seemed to be regretful, but also indifferent.
"When?" Bai Qian was still a little unconvinced. "Did Gan Lie really agree?"
"Yes, I agree. We've agreed to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow afternoon," said Yu Rou.
"Oh my god." Bai Qian almost dropped the wine glass in her hand. "Are you kidding me?"
Yu Rou smiled and asked, "What do you think?"
Bai Qian shook his head with a look of despair on his face.
"You two have only been married for half a year, right?"
"More than seven months." Yu Rou said.
"Okay, who proposed it? Well, it must be you. Did he agree as soon as you proposed it?" Bai Qian still had confidence in Gan Lie. She felt that he would not persist for so long and then change his mind after finally getting married.
Yu Rou said, "Not really."
Bai Qian was a little confused. "Well, they say it's better to demolish ten temples than to destroy a marriage. Should I try to persuade you?"
Yu Rou waved her hand and said politely, "No thanks."
"Haha, I think so too. I never care about other people's family affairs. I only listen to gossip." Bai Qian raised his eyebrows and smiled.
Yu Rou: "I'm going to the bathroom, you drink slowly."
"Go ahead. I'm not going to drink anymore after this one. I'm going to call someone to pick me up."
The bar's sink was outside, not in the bathroom. Yu Rou originally just wanted to wash her hands, but when she smelled the disinfectant, she suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Yu Rou covered her mouth, tore off a few tissues, and leaned on the sink, trying to vomit uncomfortably, but nothing came out.
She lowered her head with a pale face, a disgusting taste in her mouth, frowned, closed her eyes, and it took her a while to feel better.
Yu Rou took a breath and washed her hands. When she looked up, she saw in the mirror that besides herself, there was also the man who made Bai Qian embarrassed.
He was leaning against the wall with his head slightly lowered. From this angle, you could see that his sideburns were shaved, revealing his handsome ears.
His windbreaker had been opened at some point, revealing an apricot-colored sweater underneath. His thin figure made him look even weaker. He glanced at Yu Rou expressionlessly, holding a long cigarette between his fingers. The smoke lingered around his fingertips, creating a decadent beauty.
