When Fang Yan came out, Zhu Jian had disappeared.
The waiter handed over a note and said, "Mr. Fang, your friend left for something. He left a note for you."
Fang Yan opened the note, which had a row of beautiful handwriting on it: "The bill has been paid. We charge by the hour here. I'm not sure when you can come back, so I'm going back first."
Fang Yan grinned.
Zhu Jian wanted to act like a rich man, but the huge pressure of sitting there and not ordering anything but spending money every minute must have made him feel uneasy, right
This society is really realistic!
"What are you laughing at?" Xia Tian asked curiously.
"I was wondering, is this about fighting counterfeiting or beating people up?" Fang Yan replied with a smile.
Xia Tian looked at Fang Yan with an apologetic look on his face and said, "I'm so sorry. Feng Yuancheng called and said he wanted to introduce me to two Tai Chi masters. As you know, I really hope to add some Tai Chi elements to my new album, but you rejected me several times. I don't know much about Tai Chi, so I thought I could ask you to help me. I didn't expect this to happen."
"Forget it. It's already happened anyway." Fang Yan waved his hand and said generously, "Just make some compensation."
"How can I compensate you?" Xia Tian asked with a smile.
Fang Yan laughed and said, "Then please treat me to dinner. I didn't have enough food just now."
When Xia Tian heard Fang Yan say that he was not full, he remembered that he had not eaten yet.
She looked apologetic and said, "No problem. What do you want to eat? I'll see if I can book a private room here."
"No need." Fang Yan waved his hand. "Let's not eat here. Something unpleasant happened just now. Eating here will affect people's appetite. Besides, eating here - even if you eat a lot of dishes, you still don't feel full."
Xia Tian squinted his eyes and smiled, and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Roadside barbecue stall.
Fang Yan and Xia Tian found a table near the corner and hid Xia Tian's body in the shadow where the light could not reach.
Fang Yan called the boss over and very skillfully ordered a lot of food, and said, "Boss, please give me two more bottles of beer."
"Okay. I'll be there in a minute." The boss replied, but he looked at Xia Tian with a very strange look. The way this girl was dressed, the way she looked, the way she looked--it didn't look like she was here for a barbecue.
After the boss left, Fang Yan looked at Xia Tian and said, "Look at you. Your clothing style is not at all friendly. If others see us sitting together, they will definitely think that I am a gigolo who specializes in deceiving rich girls."
Xia Tian smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think I would like to? As a public figure, those reporters are always watching you. They are watching your work performance, your gossip, and your dressing style. If you wore a piece of clothing in public six months ago and wore it again six months later, the reporters would say that you are out of date and have no money to buy new clothes. If you wear brighter lipstick or heavier eye shadow, you will also be attacked and criticized. You can not care, but you don't want to make too much trouble. So, it's not wrong to follow the crowd."
"It's really not easy to be a star." Fang Yan nodded in agreement. "That's why I refused to be the male lead in your MV. If I accidentally became famous, people would ask me for autographs everywhere I went, and pretty young girls would come and want to take pictures with me. How distressed would I be? Should I agree or not?"
"------Not the male lead in the MV." Xia Tian corrected. "It's some footage of you doing Tai Chi. If you don't agree, we can use your face instead of your face, but only your Tai Chi moves and momentum-----"
"You don't even use my face, isn't that an insult?" Fang Yan said angrily.
The beer came and Fang Yan asked the boss to bring the beer utensils.
Xia Tian said, "Your kung fu is so good, can't you just use your hands to open it?"
"Of course." Fang Yan took the wine opener from the boss and said, "But I'm a low-key person. I don't want to attract too much attention."
The boss looked at Fang Yan with disdain and thought, could such a beautiful woman have been deceived by this guy's sweet talk
Bang!
The cap of the beer bottle popped open, and Fang Yan poured a glass for Xia Tian with a disposable plastic cup, and then filled the cup in front of him.
Fang Yan picked up the wine glass and said, "Come on, big star, I'll toast you. This should be your first time eating barbecue at a roadside stall, right?"
Xia Tian shook his head and said, "My mother didn't want me to eat these things, saying they were too dirty. But I didn't care. When I was in school, I often went out with my classmates to eat barbecue and drink beer. Later, we rarely had the chance to do so."
Xia Tian picked up his glass and clinked it with Fang Yan's. Then they both drank the iced beer at the same time. They felt cool from the inside out, and even the depression caused by the Liu Xueru incident tonight was mostly relieved.
"Master Liu - will he be okay?" Xia Tian asked worriedly.
Fang Yan snorted coldly and said, "This man has evil intentions and is ruthless. He tried to kill me several times. His bead array is really powerful. If my skills were a little weaker, I wouldn't be able to sit here and drink with you tonight. I only seriously injured him, which is already a mercy. I don't want to cause trouble for you."
"I'm really sorry." Xia Tian picked up the bottle and filled their glasses, saying, "I'll toast to you."
Fang Yan laughed again and said, "I guess there aren't many people who can pour you wine now."
"I haven't drunk for many years," Xia Tian said.
"Why are you making an exception today?"
Xia Tian thought for a moment and said, "I just want to have a drink. There's no reason for it. It's like when I can't sleep in the middle of the night and suddenly want to eat fried chicken with beer, braised chicken wings, spicy pickled fish, or even KFC and McDonald's, which I rarely eat----"
Xia Tian smiled very refreshingly and said, "Besides, it's my treat tonight. When guests are drinking, how can the host not accompany them?"
"You're not a bad person." Fang Yan said. "At least you're not annoying."
"Is this your final evaluation of me?"
"It's not bad. Don't you know? Many people don't like summer."
"Oh. I'd like to know, who doesn't like summer?"
"All the couples in the world." Fang Yan said. "Because when summer comes, the weather is too hot and couples can't hug each other."
"------"
"I have a question for you."
"ask."
"Although I don't know much about Tai Chi, doesn't Tai Chi emphasize using softness to overcome hardness, and requires practitioners to be calm and not hurt others easily? Why did Liu Xueru hit others so easily? You---you also beat him up badly?"
Fang Yan smiled and said, "Taiping Guangji, Volume 174, quotes the chapter Tan Shu. Xue Daoheng, the Vice Minister of History of the Sui Dynasty, once visited Kaishan Temple in Zhongshan Mountain and asked the little monk, 'Why does the Vajra have angry eyes? Why does the Bodhisattva lower his eyebrows?' The little monk replied, 'The Vajra has angry eyes to subdue the four demons. The Bodhisattva lowers his eyebrows to show compassion to the six realms.'"
"You mean to say that good and evil are just a thought away. Good people use good, and evil people do evil. This has nothing to do with the kung fu you learn, but it has to do with the target of the use?"
"You can say that." Fang Yan nodded. After thinking for a moment, he added, "In fact, it was mainly because I couldn't control myself. He wanted to hit me, so I beat him up. He wanted to kill me, so I beat him half to death - the good guy still suffered."
"------"
At this moment, the cell phone in Fang Yan's pocket rang.
Fang Yan took it out and saw that the caller ID showed the number of "Qinqin".
Kiss
Fang Yan was stunned for several seconds before he remembered that this was Jiang Qin's nickname.
But, I never saved her number like this. How did it become a "kiss"
Fang Yan answered the phone, and Jiang Qin's voice came from the other end. The little girl asked arrogantly, "Teacher Fang, where are you?"
Fang Yan immediately looked around and thought, could it be that they happened to see him taking Xia Tian out for a barbecue
After finding no suspicious enemy activity, Fang Yan said, "We are eating."
"Where do we eat?" Jiang Qin asked.
Fang Yan smiled bitterly and said, "You won't ask me to tell you exactly where I ate, who I ate with, and what dishes I ate, right?"
Jiang Qin giggled and said in a soft voice, "If you are willing, I won't object."
"Hurry up and tell me. What's the matter? If you don't tell me, I'll hang up."
"Let's sing." Jiang Qin said.
"Drinking and singing? No way. I'm busy." Fang Yan said and was about to hang up the phone.
"If you don't come, I'll block you at the school gate." Jiang Qin said threateningly. "Yuan Xiaolin said she'll go too. The two of us are going to hold up banners and go to the school gate to propose."
Fang Yan smiled helplessly and said, "It's really not convenient. You know, I'm not a very good singer."
"Singing?" Xia Tian's eyes lit up and he said, "Sure. I'll go too."
Jiang Qin had sharp ears and immediately asked, "Teacher Fang, where are you eating? Who are you eating with? Are there any women around you?"
Fang Yan sighed and said, "Tell me the address. I'll come find you guys after dinner."
"No. You haven't told me who the woman next to you is? Is she pretty?"
"You'll see him soon, won't you?" Fang Yan said unhappily, "If you don't tell me, I'll hang up."
"In Dynasty KTV. Come over quickly." Jiang Qin said.
After hanging up the phone with the annoying little girl, Fang Yan looked at Xia Tian who was sitting opposite him and asked, "Are you really determined to go sing? With a bunch of little brats?"
"Yeah." Xia Tian nodded seriously. "I suddenly want to go to KTV to sing. Wouldn't it be fun to sing my own songs at KTV?"
"Is it like you suddenly want to eat fried chicken, drink beer, braised chicken wings, and pickled fish?" Fang Yan asked.
"Yes." Xia Tian nodded firmly.
After a pause, he asked curiously, "Who is Qinqin? What a cute name."
When Fang Yan took out his phone, Xia Tian accidentally glanced at it. (To be continued)
