In the test before the end of the semester, Qi Yan successfully broke away from the title of the last one in ten thousand years and became the tenth lowest in the class. The change from being the last in the grade to the tenth in the class was so great that Qi Yan was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear even during his nap.
That night, Qi Yan was extremely excited and called the housekeeper in Jing Ranxiu's car, saying that he wanted to have barbecue tonight!
"It just so happened that Mr. Qi also came home a few nights." The housekeeper squinted on the phone and smiled: "The young master will tell the husband about this, and the husband will be very happy."
Qi Yan's good mood suddenly dropped when he thought of his father, who was running around all day, and who loved money more than his son.
Jing Ranxiu noticed the changes in the people around him. He said nothing and focused on his driver.
I didn't know what was said on the other side of the phone. Qi Yan said 'hmm' twice before hanging up.
The car fell into an eerie silence. Jing Ranxiu turned his head to look at Qi Yan and found that he was leaning on the back of the chair, leaning slightly sideways, looking at the fleeting scenery outside the window.
He was speechless for a moment until Qi Yan sniffed.
"You won't cry, will you?"
"Young master, you're not crying!" Qi Yan still looked energetic, but his strong nasal voice betrayed him.
"Don't you want to go home?" Jing Ranxiu turned left, passed another traffic post, and entered the villa area.
Qi Yan was silent, and after a moment, he nodded slowly.
"I want to go drink!" Qi Yan did not call himself 'young master', but used 'I'.
Jing Ran frowned slightly: "Underage people are not allowed to drink."
"I'm an adult!" Qi Yan just came of age last year.
Jing Ranxiu was speechless and actually turned around at the traffic post, completely diverging from the villa.
"I can take you to drink." Jing Ranxiu's voice was light: "It's a reward for your progress in the exam. I'll treat you."
Qi Yan bared his teeth and smiled: "You know what I mean!"
"Call home." Jing Ranxiu looked at the road ahead: "Save them worry."
Qi Yan called home and said that Jing Ranxiu, his 'brother', wanted to take him out to open a small stove. This kind of mutual affection between brothers was something that Jing's mother and the housekeeper liked to hear, so they agreed. Just say that we must come back for dinner in the evening.
Jing Ranxiu took Qi Yan to a bar that he liked to go to before. This bar was completely different from the 'head-shaving' bar. How should I put it? When he first entered, Qi Yan felt like he had entered a high-end bar. The illusion of a western restaurant.
"Bartender? Bar? Dance floor?" Qi Yan came out one by one: "Where have they gone? What kind of bar would it be without these things?"
"Not every bar is what you imagine." Jing Ranxiu naturally sat down in a private room against the wall. Qi Yan looked at it, followed him, and sat opposite him.
A waiter wearing a waiter's uniform came over, holding a book like that of a Western restaurant in his hand. He straightened it respectfully and pushed it between the two of them. Jing Ranxiu raised his chin slightly, and the waiter nodded and stepped back.
"Oh, I haven't ordered it yet." Qi Yan shouted.
"We have appetizers." Jing Ranxiu opened the menu and read: "What do you want to drink?"
"Wine!"
"What kind of wine?" Jing Ranxiu asked patiently.
Qi Yan choked, he really didn't know anything about wine. Taking advantage of the extreme embarrassment, Qi Yan flashed his hand, grabbed the menu from Jing Ranxiu, and read it carefully.
Jing Ranxiu was not annoyed. Seeing him looking at the menu seriously, he couldn't help but shake his head.
After a while, Qi Yan pushed the menu angrily: "They are all cocktails..."
"Cocktails are not good enough?" Jing Ranxiu chuckled: "Then what do you want to drink? Red wine? Dark beer? Champagne?"
"We can't have two kilograms of Erguotou!" Qi Yan shouted.
Jing Ranxiu probably gave up talking to Qi Yan. At this time, the waiter brought several plates of snacks and a pot of fruit tea. Looking at the things running in the tea, he knew that this thing was extremely healthy.
Jing Ranxiu told the waiter the names of two glasses of wine that Qi Yan didn't understand. After the waiter respectfully stepped back, Qi Yan leaned over and asked, "What did you order?"
"Two cocktails." Jing Ranxiu picked up a piece of potato pancake with a fork and put it into his mouth. The potato pancake, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, made an alluring crisp sound as he chewed it.
Qi Yan swallowed, and without even bothering to pick up a fork, he took a piece with his hand and threw it into his mouth.
- Damn it! delicious!
After eating for a while, Qi Yan felt thirsty, so he poured a cup of fruit tea, took a sip, and narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.
"You know how to enjoy it!" After being satisfied, Qi Yan shouted to Jing Ranxiu: "Are you here to enjoy it all the time?!"
"No." Jing Ranxiu responded calmly: "It's just occasionally."
"Huh, occasionally?" Qi Yan obviously didn't believe it: "If I knew there was such a place, I would love to come here every day!"
Jing Ranxiu raised his eyes and looked at him: "That's you."
Qi Yan: "..." Why do you feel so despised? Is it his imagination
Jing Ranxiu put down his fork and seemed to be full. He poured himself a cup of fruit tea but was not in a hurry to drink it. With his hands folded and placed on the table in front of him, Jing Ranxiu's eyes fell lightly on Qi Yan's face.
"Why don't you want to go back? Is it because your father is coming back?"
After a pause in eating, Qi Yan still had something in his mouth and hummed vaguely: "Why do you ask so many questions..."
"Because I was wondering whether to tell your father about the last time you beat a classmate and asked the parents."
“…”
Okay, you win, that’s it! It will threaten people!
"Because he doesn't like me, and I don't like him either! That's it!" Qi Yan broke the jar and said.
Jing Ranxiu checked the relationship between Qi's father and Qi Yan. At most, he was busy with work and neglected the children, but Qi Yan's reaction and attitude were obviously not like that...
"Oh, really." Jing Ranxiu did not deny Qi Yan's words directly: "For this reason, I feel that you are not pitiful, so I decided to tell your father the truth about your beating."
"Hey, hey, hey, you are going too far!" Qi Yan tried to save what he had just blurted out: "Why do you know so much about my family? And even if you are also my family in the future, then there is no need to completely resolve everything between me and my father. Let me tell you!"

—I guess my goodwill, which I worked so hard to raise, has just dropped like this? !
"You're right, this is really not something I should know." Jing Ranxiu's voice was as cold as ever.
Qi Yan shrank and looked at Jing Ranxiu's indifferent face. Finally, he sighed heavily as if he was giving in.
"He missed my opening ceremony because of work... "
As a result, at a young age, he was ridiculed by his peers at school.
The scariest thing is probably that sentence - my mother said you don't have a mother, but now it seems that you don't even have a father!
Accompanied by a string of laughter like silver bells, Qi Yan still doesn't understand why such painful and suffocating words are called-
Children's words are unbridled.
