Chapter 117 Sudden Happiness
Because she had an appointment with Yao Ning to have a drink, Lin Xiaowan did not drive. Instead, she took a taxi from the hospital and went directly to the "Le Chao Bar" where she had an appointment with Yao Ning.
The atmosphere of this music bar is great. Since coming to S City, Lin Xiaowan and Yao Ning have been here several times.
Yao Ning's boyfriend, her current fiancé, was picked up here.
It is said that no man and woman who meet in a bar are sincere, but they can actually get married, which makes Lin Xiaowan feel envious.
But she didn't come here today to pick up a boy, she just wanted to drink to relieve her sorrow.
Yao Ning is going to get married soon. He is in high spirits and even looks particularly good.
As soon as she saw Lin Xiaowan, she trotted over, took Lin Xiaowan's hand and said, "Wanwan, long time no see. Don't worry, you can pour out all your grievances to me today."
Lin Xiaowan smiled faintly: "Then I won't be polite."
The two of them entered the bar together. The bar was exquisitely designed, with a special feeling that combined neoclassicism and the post-industrial era.
The two sat down in a booth, and Yao Ning asked, "Wanwan, what would you like to drink?"
Lin Xiaowan suddenly recalled the day when she and Zhang Yang went hiking, and the scene where the two of them fought over beer at the top of the mountain at night. It seemed that the beer tasted particularly good that night.
Just thinking of that scene, the malty aroma of beer seemed to already be in her mouth, so she casually said, "Let's drink K beer."
Yao Ning said to the waiter, "Give me a dozen bottles of K-Brand beer."
As soon as they finished speaking, they heard the bar's resident singer clear his throat and said, "Next, I will bring you an old song "Love is Dead"."
The resident singer in this bar is really good at choosing songs. Lin Xiaowan's originally dying heart has been completely cremated. Love is dead. Is it time to burn paper next?
Yao Ning and Lin Xiaowan were childhood friends. They had grown up together. She could tell at a glance that Lin Xiaowan was in big trouble this time.
Although Lin Xiaowan is a top student, she is also a very optimistic and playful person. To see her like this, she must have suffered some serious injuries.
Yao Ning asked tentatively: "Wanwan, tell me, how did that man become your wall-breaker? And how did he drive Jian away completely?"
Lin Xiaowan held her cheek and looked at the singer on the stage and said, "I met him in the hospital. Originally, I just wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect that this try would..."
When she said this, the singer on the stage sang: "People at the airport have to fly sooner or later, I'm here to mourn your departure and lower the flag to half-mast, even though your love for me is dead..."
The sad lyrics made her feel uncomfortable, and she took a big sip of the beer that the waiter had just brought her.
Yao Ning held her hand and said, "Slow down, you haven't even started talking yet, and you're already drinking."
Lin Xiaowan smiled bitterly and slowly told the story of how she and Zhang Yang met.
From their first meeting, to their several dates, and even her meeting with her father, she told him everything bit by bit. Every time she spoke a little, she would take a sip of wine, and Yao Ning couldn't stop her.
However, she did not dare to say that Zhang Yang was a hired bootlicker, but instead told the story as an ambiguous one between two people who were in love with each other. As for Shi Yuxuan's part, she told it truthfully.
"Ningning, do you think he and his classmate will rekindle their old relationship and completely cut off contact with me?"
Yao Ning knocked on the table and said, "Wanwan, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but how can you be so unconfident when facing a college student? From childhood to adulthood, you have never lost to others in anything.
In terms of appearance, you have been the school belle from elementary school to high school. I don’t know if you are the school belle in Cambridge, but at least you are a Chinese school belle, right?
"When it comes to studying, you've never fallen from the top. Even your fighting ability is better than that of several burly men. Why are you afraid of competing with a college girl for a man?"
Lin Xiaowan shook her head bitterly: "But they have been in love for two years. Every word and every action of that girl is two years of hard work. I am no match for her."
Yao Ning knocked on the table and said, "Didn't you just say that? They are not together, not together, not together. I must say this three times.
He was being nice to that girl these days just to help her recover her memory, so don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"But when I looked at them..." Lin Xiaowan felt uncomfortable again when she thought of the scene of Zhang Yang hugging Shi Yuxuan downstairs today.
She raised her glass and was about to drink it in one gulp, but someone suddenly held her hand.
She looked up along the man's hand, and she was suddenly stunned. That man turned out to be Zhang Yang! It was him!
The hand he held on Lin Xiaowan was warm and strong, his brows were slightly furrowed, and there was a hint of sadness in his eyes.
Even his voice was gentler than usual: "Xiao Wan, I didn't know you had such deep feelings for me. I hope it's not too late to know now."
Lin Xiaowan couldn't believe her eyes. Was he chasing her? Did he really care about her so much?
Zhang Yang slowly sat down beside her, picked up the beer in her hand and said, "I'll help you drink this glass of beer, okay?"
Lin Xiaowan's voice was trembling: "You... don't you need to accompany Shi Yuxuan?"
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "You think too much. I accompanied her just to help her recover her memory. It's not what you think. So after accompanying her, I came to find you."
Yao Ning, who was just comforting Lin Xiaowan, saw the scene in front of him and smiled like an aunt: "Wanwan, it seems that your love is not dead, it has been resurrected, and you can meet men again."
Lin Xiaowan bit her lip, glared at her fiercely, and then looked at Zhang Yang. She still couldn't believe that the situation before her was real.
Zhang Yang drank the wine in the glass and put it back on the table. He smiled and said to Lin Xiaowan, "You don't need this now that I'm here."
"Yeah!" Lin Xiaowan nodded heavily, her cheeks flushed, not knowing whether it was because of the wine or because she was excited about Zhang Yang's appearance at this moment.
Yao Ning raised his eyebrows and said, "I guess you don't need me here anymore, right?"
Zhang Yang smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, I was so busy talking to Xiao Wan that I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Zhang Yang. What's the name of this beautiful lady?"
"My name is Yao Ning, Lin Xiaowan's best friend." Yao Ning shook hands with Zhang Yang, and then she said very tactfully: "Then I won't be a light bulb here for you anymore, bye."
Watching Yao Ning leave, Lin Xiaowan still didn't believe what she saw was real. She even pinched her thigh secretly to feel the pain, so she wasn't dreaming.
She raised her lips, looked at Zhang Yang lovingly and said, "My bestie is leaving, let's go to another place. Where do you think we should go?"
Zhang Yang said meaningfully: "It's getting late, of course I'll take you home." "Thanks to Qimao Shuyou_0, Schrodinger's Kitten, a total of four days, and Yingying Xiaocao for the tips!"
