When he got up early in the morning, Xu Zuoyan subconsciously looked for Ye Kaicheng, but it was obvious that Ye Kaicheng did not come back all night as he said.
Xu Zuoyan sat up, frowned and rubbed his head, but his eyes were staring at the place on the bed where Ye Kaicheng usually slept. Finally, he lazily got up and tidied himself up. When he came out of the bathroom, he was already energetic. Today he will go back to work and resume his identity as a reporter from Xu University.
As soon as Xu Zuoyan arrived at the newspaper office, the waitress at the front desk looked at him with surprise. Xu Zuoyan waved to her and said with a smile: "Good morning."
Xu Zuoyan was not very good at saying fancy words, but looking at the bright smile on his handsome face, how could anyone not do this and make everyone smile
As soon as he arrived at the office, the sharp-eyed Zhuzi immediately spotted him, jumped up from his chair, and shouted loudly: "The great hero Xu is back, why didn't you tell him in advance, please go and greet him."
"Easy to say, easy to say. Brother, come and go as the wind dictates. Don't compromise with the show." Xu Zuoyan raised his chin and said in harmony with Zhuzi, and then laughed and asked, "Has my unfilial grandson shown signs of aggression recently?"
"How dare you show up? The last time I saw him at a press conference, the grandson turned around and ran away when he saw me. Not to mention how funny it was." Zhuzi couldn't help but laugh, feeling very happy in his heart.
"Tsk, tsk, let's see if that grandson dares to be arrogant in the future. Find an opportunity and deal with him." Xu Zuoyan nodded with satisfaction.
"Are your injuries healed? Are you planning to start working?" Zhuzi asked when he saw that Xu Zuoyan came with a camera.
"Okay, let's start work today. Is the editor here?" Xu Zuoyan looked towards the editor's office, but it happened that the door of the office was opened.
The editor-in-chief's fat head poked out, obviously because he knew Xu Zuoyan was coming, so he waved to Zuoyan with a smile on his face: "Zuoyan, come in and talk."
Zhuzi patted Xu Zuoyan's shoulder and winked at Xu Zuoyan, indicating that the smile on the editor's face was a good thing and asked Xu Zuoyan to hurry over. Xu Zuoyan threw away his camera coolly and went to the editor-in-chief's office.
"Although I have already praised you on the phone, I still have to praise you in person. You did a great job this time and earned our newspaper a lot of face." The editor-in-chief praised you without hesitation. Xu Zuoyan.
"This is what I should do." Xu Zuoyan said with a smile on his face.
I thought to myself, I can still find the value of my existence here. My sister and the others have been blocking me from being a reporter. That’s because they can’t see my achievements and don’t understand the value of my job. One day, I It will impress them.
"Then you have to keep working hard. You are the only one I can rely on. Without you, Zhuzi is not enough." The editor-in-chief saw Xu Zuoyan and said.
"That's necessary. By the way, is there any news recently?" Xu Zuoyan asked.
"Not yet. The craze for this exchange meeting has not subsided. You can pay attention to it for two days, and then it will depend on your efforts." The editor said.
"Okay, I get it." Xu Zuoyan held the camera and nodded, saying that he would work hard on his own.
"By the way, Zuo Yan, how's that going for you?" The editor-in-chief looked at Xu Zuoyan and rubbed his hands on the table, looking like he wanted to know but didn't dare to know.
"What's the matter?" Xu Zuoyan asked puzzledly.
"It's, it's about the breaking point." The editor reminded him, but as soon as he finished reminding him, he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Ah, forget it, you don't need to tell me, I don't want to know anymore." He shouldn't have asked, but he was really curious.
"Oh, this is the matter." Xu Zuoyan finally understood, but he didn't notice the conflicting mood of the editor-in-chief. He tilted his head and thought for a while, then asked: "After the break, will he still have a chance to recover?"
"Ah?" The editor-in-chief was stunned and rolled his eyes. He didn't directly reply to Xu Zuoyan's words. He thought about it and said, "Why do you ask that?"
"Because I think if a good straight man really changed his mind and became a gay in the future, wouldn't it be too miserable? By the way, what is the life of a gay like? Will they still be gay? Will you have friends?" Thinking about Ye Kaicheng's words yesterday, Xu Zuoyan couldn't help but become concerned about the lives of his comrades. When the editor-in-chief gave him advice before, he said that once Ye Kaicheng was broken, he would retire and not have to worry about Ye Kaicheng's future life. At that time, he also disliked Ye Kaicheng, so naturally he would not care about how Ye Kaicheng's life would change in the future if he was broken by him. But now, he is a little worried.
"Well, as long as he can find a like-minded person who also sincerely likes him, then it's the same as normal interactions. Of course there will be friends, as long as his friends are open-minded. They will also accept it." The editor thought for a while and replied.
"Is this so? Is gay love so easy to find? If you can't find it, don't you have to be alone for the rest of your life?" He thought to himself that Ye Kaicheng's family was already deserted. If he could never find someone he really liked in the future, Wouldn't that be tragic
"I'm not sure about this." The editor said, and then his eyes lit up and he said, "How about this, you can experience it for yourself and you'll know. It's not like we don't have gay people here, go and take a look. Don’t you know how gay people spend their time? It just so happens that you just treat it as an investigative report, come back and compile a report for me, it’s the best of both worlds.”
When Xu Zuoyan heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows. This is not bad. First, he inquired about the daily life of the comrades. If Ye Kaicheng was really broken by him, it would at least help him a little, so Xu Zuoyan immediately agreed. .
However, the editor-in-chief told him that gay bars would only open at least at night, so Xu Zuoyan didn't have to rush there. After thinking about it, he decided to let Zhuzi go with him. After all, Xu Zuoyan was a rookie. If Zhuzi went with him, they could take care of each other more or less. Moreover, the editor-in-chief also reminded them that they could only go to a gay bar called 'Qi Wu' and not to other places. When Xu Zuoyan asked why, the editor only said that it was safer there, and Xu Zuoyan stopped asking further.
In the afternoon, Xu Zuoyan called Ye Kaicheng and asked if Ye Kaicheng would be back tonight. Ye Kaicheng said he would go back, but he would have to go back later so that Xu Zuoyan would not have to wait for him.
Hearing Ye Kaicheng's voice, Xu Zuoyan seemed a little tired and asked, but Ye Kaicheng just smiled and told Xu Zuoyan not to worry and just take care of himself. So Xu Zuoyan didn't ask anymore, but he still felt that there seemed to be something bigger this time, otherwise why would Ye Kaicheng be so busy suddenly.
It was finally night. Xu Zuoyan and Zhuzi both changed their clothes and then went to Qiwu together. Looking at the door of Qiwu, the outside was no different from other bars, but it made Xu Zuoyan feel a little excited. Excited.
Xu Zuoyan, a good boy, usually works during the day. After work is over, he goes home directly and does not wander around outside. Only occasionally when friends get together will they go to the bar together, otherwise he will not go there. Relatively speaking, A messy place. What's more, it's a place that has nothing to do with him.
Bamboo pulled him and took him inside.
There were not many people inside, and the half-lit colored lights were rotating, making the surroundings unclear. Xu Zuoyan looked around and found that it was no different from other places. The only difference was that there were no women here.
Zhuzi pulled Xu Zuoyan to the bar, and at the same time whispered in Xu Zuoyan's ear: "Don't cause trouble tonight."
Xu Zuoyan, who was originally happy, suddenly turned dark. He glared at Zhuzi angrily and said, "Do you think I have no other ability besides causing trouble? I just accepted an unfilial grandson. Do you have any?" Xu Zuoyan He countered that he didn’t like people saying he was causing trouble.
"Okay, don't be angry, we are here to do business." Zhuzi quickly waved his hand to let Xu Zuoyan calm down, and then asked the bartender for two glasses of wine.
Only then did Xu Zuoyan calm down, turned around, and looked around randomly. However, he found that his casual glances could actually make eye contact with several people.
Xu Zuoyan was stunned for a moment, and looked at a man who was looking at him for a while. The man even raised his glass of wine in a friendly gesture. But Xu Zuoyan still didn't remember that he knew that person. In this case, it was just an ordinary guest saying hello. Xu Zuoyan originally wanted to respond, but he remembered that the people here were not 'ordinary' people, so he didn't dare to respond casually.
Although there was no response, Xu Zuoyan took a closer look at him and found that the man looked quite young and handsome, and his clothes were not vulgar. Xu Zuoyan was surprised that such an outstanding man How can a man be gay
Xu Zuoyan withdrew his gaze and heard Zhu Zi chatting with the bartender in a familiar manner: "Is your place usually lively?"
"It's quite lively, but it usually gets more lively later in the evening." The bartender said in a good manner, and handed the drinks to the two of them at the same time.
"Are they all younger or older?" Zhuzi thanked him, took the wine, and continued to ask.
"They are all younger. Young people are more relaxed." The bartender smiled.
"That's right, are there any big shots among the people who usually come here?" Zhuzi nodded in agreement and asked again.
However, the bartender did not answer this question directly. He looked up at Zhuzi and Xu Zuoyan, who was holding a straw boredly on the side, and asked with a smile: "Are you two new here? I don't think we have seen each other before?"
"Yeah, new here. It's my first time here. I don't know what fun you have here. Let me introduce you." Seeing that the bartender was a little suspicious of them, Zhuzi quickly changed the topic to avoid making the bartender continue to doubt their purpose.
"Let me introduce it to you." Suddenly, a pleasant voice sounded in Xu Zuoyan's ears.
Xu Zuoyan turned around and saw that it was the friendly man who raised his glass to him before. At this moment, the man still looked friendly, but Xu Zuoyan subconsciously stepped back because the man was too close. The voice that just spoke was right next to his ears, and now he turned around, but the man didn't back away. He put one hand on the bar and leaned forward. When Xu Zuoyan looked at him, he also stood straight. He looked at Xu Zuoyan with a very direct and fiery gaze, which made Xu Zuoyan feel a little uncomfortable, so he stepped back and stayed away from the man.
