A false alarm
(Today is the second update. This month's update rhythm is that if there is nothing important, there will be two updates every day. If there is, there will only be one update.)
Jiuyin was a restaurant-type bar. In recent years, this style of dining bar was more popular, such as Walnut and so on. After Xiao Ruoqing and Lin Su finished their meal, they sat here and continued to drink and listen to music.
Today, in order to meet Uncle Zhuang and Mr. Cao, he dressed more decently and spiritedly. After all, it was the first time he met them. He had to leave a good impression. This was a habit and attitude that a young man had to learn.
After Qin Sheng walked into the bar, he found Lin Su. Lin Su's habits were similar to his, either by the window or in the corner. At the same time, he saw Xiao Ruoqing sitting opposite, so he walked over slowly with a smile on his face.
"Hello." Qin Sheng took the initiative to greet him.
Lin Su and Xiao Ruoqing had already stood up. Xiao Ruoqing looked at Qin Sheng with a smile. Lin Su took Qin Sheng's arm and said, "This is my boyfriend, Qin Sheng."
"My best friend, a teacher at the China Academy of Fine Arts, a talented woman, Xiao Ruoqing," Lin Su looked at Xiao Ruoqing and introduced.
Qin Sheng nodded slightly as he said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for such a long time. I was busy just now."
"It's okay. Susu and I haven't seen each other for a long time. After dinner, we will sit here and drink some wine and chat." Xiao Ruoqing's initial impression of Qin Sheng was good. She smiled and reached out her hand. "Sit down and talk. What would you like to drink?"
The waiter had already come over with the wine list. Qin Sheng opened the wine list and ordered a glass of Godfather casually. During this period of time, he had been drinking in small quantities. He was not as carefree as he had been in the past, because there was no one who was worthy of him drinking with a big bowl.
"I was just talking to Susu about what kind of man had chased our goddess. Now I finally see the true face of Lushan. It really makes me envious," Xiao Ruoqing joked.
Qin Sheng replied somewhat embarrassedly, "Maybe it's because of the good karma I accumulated in my previous life. Sometimes I feel that it's unbelievable that I met her in this life. Will I use up all my luck?"
"I think you are taking advantage of it and still showing off." Xiao Ruoqing covered her mouth and smiled.
Lin Su did not let go of his hand. She said coquettishly, "Ruoqing, don't bully him."
Xiao Ruoqing pouted and said, "Oh, you're already protecting me. We've been friends for more than 20 years. You really value a lover more than a friend. Hum, I'm jealous."
The two beauties frolicking, laughing, and scolding each other was a beautiful scene.
The seat by the window was darker, so Qin Sheng did not notice this acquaintance. However, this acquaintance kept staring at Qin Sheng. He was very surprised to see this man in Hangzhou. Qin Sheng was very surprised to see this man in Hangzhou.
The man hesitated for a moment and called the waiter over. He asked directly, "What's the most expensive red wine here?"
Sitting next to the man were two friends, a man and a woman. They didn't look like ordinary people. They also noticed that he had been staring at the man who had just come in and asked subconsciously, "Did you meet someone you know?"
"A friend of mine," the man said casually. He didn't tell the truth. Then, he looked at the waitress and waited for her answer.
The woman, or rather the girl, snorted and said, "What good wine can there be here? Maybe it's fake. You don't understand. Let me do it. There's no need to be a fool."
Some non-mainstream girls took the wine list, glanced at it casually, and said directly, "This bottle of Chateau Cheval Blanc, 12 years old. This should be the best in your shop."
"Miss, you have a good eye. Our boss also likes the red wine of Chateau Cheval Blanc. This is one of the only two bottles left." The waiter quickly flattered. This bottle of wine cost nearly 5,000 yuan. Who would order such an expensive red wine when they came here? Their bar did not have this kind of atmosphere. This should be the first time he saw someone order such an expensive red wine since he came here for a long time. Fortunately, the boss left two bottles here, otherwise he would be embarrassed today.
The non-mainstream girl snorted and said, "Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
The waiter smiled bitterly.
The man took out his credit card and threw it to the waiter. Then he pointed to Qin Sheng's table and said, "The red wine will be given to the gentleman at that table."
After that, he took out a few hundred yuan and handed it to the waiter. "This is for you."
The waiter was shocked again. What kind of trick was this? He ordered such an expensive wine and did not drink it himself. He wanted to give it to others. What the hell, rich people really knew how to play. He did not dare to say anything more. He took the tip and left.
Qin Sheng, Lin Su, and Xiao Ruoqing were chatting congenially. Literary and artistic young women always liked some chicken soup for the soul. Qin Sheng, who graduated from the philosophy department, was a professional. Xiao Ruoqing was completely led by Qin Sheng's rhythm. She listened to Qin Sheng's words intently.
At this time, the waiter sent the bottle of Chateau Cheval Blanc that the boss had collected. Before the waiter could speak, Xiao Ruoqing, who was treating tonight, frowned and said, "This is the wrong one. We didn't order red wine."
The waiter pointed to the guest at the window not far away and said, "This is a gift from the guest at that table to this gentleman."
He had seen people who ordered wine in bars and gave it to beautiful women. This was a common way of picking up girls. There were two great beauties at this table. It was not strange for handsome young men or playboys to give wine to them. However, it was a fantasy for a man like Qin Sheng. After all, Qin Sheng did not know any friends in Hangzhou. Could it be that the guests at that table were gay?
After listening to the waiter's words, Qin Sheng, Lin Su, and Xiao Ruoqing looked at the guest at the same time. When he saw the man who sent the wine, Qin Sheng's face instantly became cold, followed by a kind of vigilance and nervousness. This was the first night in Hangzhou. Was there going to be a life-and-death fight?
Because this man was not a friend, but an enemy …
His name was Yang Deng. Last year, when Qin Sheng had just arrived in Shanghai, Han Guoping had not committed suicide yet. Many of his enemies were hitting him when he was down, preparing to divide him and eat him up. Han Guoping was worried about Han Bing's safety, so he asked Qin Sheng to protect Han Bing. And the first opponent Qin Sheng met who was evenly matched with was this man.
Yang Deng, a fierce general under Third Master Wu in Jiangzhe, was said to be the adopted son of Third Master Wu …
That night, Qin Sheng did not dare to be careless. He tried his best to take down Yang Deng. He also paid a little price and was slightly injured. However, Qin Sheng did not kill Yang Deng. After seriously injuring him, he finally inserted the dagger into Yang Deng's thigh and left, leaving him to die.
That incident was finally suppressed by Jiang Xianbang. In the end, it was also because Yang Deng did not die. Otherwise, Qin Sheng, who had provoked Third Master Wu, would not live so well.
Now, after nearly a year, the two opponents met again, but on such an occasion. Qin Sheng was as surprised as Yang Deng. He did not expect that Yang Deng would send wine to him. But after all, they were enemies. There used to be grievances between them. Yang Deng almost died in his hands. Today, they met by chance. Yang Deng might take revenge.
After the incident in Mount Jiuhua, Qin Sheng had to be careful when he encountered things. What's more, he also brought Lin Su and Lin Su's best friend …
Qin Sheng squinted and stared at Yang Deng opposite him, thinking about the worst consequences and countermeasures.
Xiao Ruoqing didn't know what was going on. After coming back to her senses, she took the red wine and looked at it carefully. She was pleasantly surprised. "Tsk tsk, it's actually the 12-year-old Chateau Blanc.
Qin Sheng did not answer Xiao Ruoqing's words. After thinking for a moment, he finally got up and pinched Lin Su's palm quietly. Lin Su immediately realized that something was wrong. Obviously, Qin Sheng and the man were not friends. If they were friends, Qin Sheng would not have such a face.
At this time, Yang Deng got up with a faint smile and walked toward Qin Sheng. His two friends did not follow. Qin Sheng did not show weakness and followed Yang Deng.
The two people's eyes had been looking at each other. If their eyes could be turned into a movie, it would definitely be a fight.
A few seconds later, Qin Sheng and Yang Deng stood in the center of the bar, facing each other, only one meter away from each other. The others present seemed to be able to feel the strangeness of the two people. The atmosphere was a little tense for a while. There was a situation where they would fight if they did not agree. Even the resident singer was so scared that he forgot his words.
If these two people fought, this bar would probably be lost …
Xiao Ruoqing also felt something was wrong and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"
Lin Su said calmly, "Drinking, it has nothing to do with us."
In the center of the bar, the dim light swept over the two people, giving them the feeling of a life and death duel in the movies.
"I didn't expect to see you in Hangzhou. It's really unexpected," Yang Deng said first. Hangzhou was his home field. He must have enough aura to suppress Qin Sheng, even though he almost died in Qin Sheng's hands last time.
Qin Sheng's mouth showed a slight smile and replied, "Me too. Should we be considered enemies who are particularly angry when they meet?"
"It seems that you are afraid," Yang Deng said with some disdain.
Qin Sheng said disapprovingly, "Afraid? I should tell you this. I'm just afraid that if we really fight, it will not be worth it to destroy this bar."
"I'm afraid? Don't you know whose territory Hangzhou belongs to? "Yang Deng said with full confidence.
This was a big and also a fact. Third Master Wu was a fierce and ambitious person in Zhejiang, and there were really few people who did not give him face. Qin Sheng would take root here in the future. As soon as he arrived in Hangzhou, he met Yang Deng. If they really fought, it was estimated that he would not be able to stay in Hangzhou in the future, and he would have to wander from place to place.
Therefore, Qin Sheng admitted defeat and sighed. "Well, to be honest, I am afraid. However, I am not afraid of you, but I am afraid of Third Master Wu behind you. I will live in Hangzhou in the future. If I offend you, I can only leave. "
"Straightforward, interesting," Yang Deng said thoughtfully. At the same time, he was thinking about Qin Sheng's words. The meaning was very obvious. This man would develop in Hangzhou in the future, so he was afraid.
Qin Sheng did not want to pretend to be polite, so he said directly, "What should I do to let it go?"
Qin Sheng laid his cards on the table. However, Yang Deng burst out laughing and said, "I really don't understand. Why do you treat me as an enemy instead of a friend? If you were my enemy, I wouldn't send you wine. Instead, I might send you a knife."
"What do you mean?" Qin Sheng was a little confused.
Yang Deng slowly took two steps forward, patted Qin Sheng's shoulder, and said, "At that time, we worked for different masters and did our own things. If I was defeated by you, I can only say that I was not as good as you. You could have killed me, but you spared my life. I will remember this favor. I will not bite the hand that feeds me, and I will also distinguish between kindness and hatred. In my eyes, you are a friend, not an enemy."
"Friend?" Qin Sheng muttered to himself. He really did not understand Yang Deng's trick. He had some taboos, so he would not trust Yang Deng easily.
Yang Deng patted Qin Sheng's shoulder again and said, "If you want, we can be friends. In the future, if you have any problems in Hangzhou, you can come to me. If there is a chance, I will drink with you. Let's go."
After saying this, Yang Deng did not wait for Qin Sheng to understand. He directly turned around and waved his hand to leave. Then, he directly left the bar with his two friends, leaving only Qin Sheng standing there in confusion.
