Gu Wan's thoughts were pulled back to reality by the two of them, and she felt a little awkward for a moment.
Perhaps in the eyes of these employees, since something had happened to her husband, she could only come to the milk tea shop to help out and work to support her family.
Gu Wan did not explain too much, they could think whatever they wanted. In any case, she did not have any interactions with the employees in Gong Mohan's company, so there was naturally no need to explain everything clearly.
Even if Gu Wan heard the conversation between the two of them, she pretended not to know anything and continued to do her own things with her head lowered, until the two of them finished drinking and walked over to greet Gu Wan.
"Mistress Gong, you probably don't remember us. We were previously employees of the company."
The two of them spoke politely in front of Gu Wan. When Gu Wan heard their voices, she awkwardly raised her head and smiled at them.
After the two of them finished speaking, they suddenly felt that it was inappropriate to say these things to Gu Wan. After all, not long after Gong Mohan left, they brought up her sad matters in front of Gu Wan. To her, it would only make things worse. In an instant, an apologetic expression appeared on their faces.
"I'm sorry, Mistress Gong, we didn't mean it that way. I hope you don't take it to heart, we just …"
For a moment, the two of them didn't know how to explain it to Gu Wan, because the words they had said just now were like a thorn that pierced into Gu Wan's heart once again.
It wasn't easy for Gu Wan to walk out of that dark period and slowly accept this fact. However, this didn't mean that she could listen to others mention this matter as if nothing had happened.
However, Gu Wan did not bother with them. She only shook her head indifferently to show that she was fine.
At this time, there were two people at the next table called Gu Wan. Gu Wan hurried over and did not continue to chat with the two people in front of her.
When Gu Wan finished her work and came back, the two people had already left. Only then did Gu Wan let out a sigh of relief.
In fact, she was now very afraid of mentioning Gong Mohan to others. As long as she heard Gong Mohan's name or anything related to Gong Mohan, her heart would ache.
"Wan Wan, are you alright?" Gu Yanran came over from the side. Seeing Gu Wan standing there with a troubled look, she asked with concern.
Gu Wan smiled at Gu Yanran, shook her head, and said nothing more.
After work, Gu Wan walked alone on the street aimlessly. She had told herself that she must slowly try to accept the fact that Gong Mohan had left.
However, all the things she encountered in life always made her feel as if Gong Mohan was still by her side. This made Gu Wan fall into a dilemma.
After a long time, she looked up and found herself at the entrance of a bar. A bar called "Whale" attracted Gu Wan's attention.
Wasn't she a lonely whale now, wandering in the boundless ocean all day long? Gu Wan's lips curled into a smile. She seemed to be unable to control her steps as she walked into the bar on her own.
After entering the bar, she saw men and women twisting their waists in the middle of the dance floor, indulging their wild nature.
The bar was filled with smoke, which made Gu Wan feel a little uncomfortable. She frowned slightly and went to the bar alone.
"Beauty, you look unfamiliar. Is this your first time here?" The bartender greeted Gu Wan warmly when he saw her.
Gu Wan nodded slightly.
"What would you like to drink?" The bartender seemed to be able to see that Gu Wan was not in a good mood.
"Do you have the kind of alcohol that can help me forget painful memories?" Gu Wan smiled bitterly and said in front of the bartender. Perhaps it was because a place like a bar could easily evoke memories.
When the bartender heard that, he shook his head helplessly. It seemed that she was another person who was hurt by love. He snapped his fingers. "Alright, I got it. Please wait for a moment."
The bartender mixed a glass of alcohol and placed it in front of Gu Wan. "This is the trump card of this bar. Everyone calls it Meng Po's Soup. You have to taste it slowly. It will taste slightly sweet at the beginning, but it will be slightly bitter later on. When you drink it, your throat will feel hot and a burning sensation. However, when you finish this glass of alcohol, you will completely forget about your troubles. So, beauty, do you want to consider calling your friend to pick you up later?"
Although the bartender did not explicitly say that the alcohol was stronger, Gu Wan should be able to understand what he meant.
Gu Wan did not even have time to hesitate, nor did she call her friend. She picked up the glass of alcohol and twirled it around. The color was indeed quite beautiful. The glass of alcohol was divided into three layers with three colors. The first layer was black, the second layer was blue, and the third layer was red.
Every color had its own taste. It was just like falling in love. In the beginning, it would be sweet every day. Then, there would be some friction and small quarrels, and it would be slightly bitter. In the end, if they were separated from each other, it would be a burning pain.
Then, Gu Wan put the alcohol to her lips and took a small sip. The taste was slightly bitter. At the beginning, she drank the blue color. Everything was still so beautiful. The sweet taste made Gu Wan very happy.
"How is it? It tastes good, right? " The bartender observed every subtle expression on Gu Wan's face. After Gu Wan drank the first color, he smiled and asked jokingly.
Gu Wan nodded slightly. When she drank the first layer, Gu Wan did not feel like she was drunk at all. It was just a slight taste. Gu Wan continued to drink the second layer. This layer turned from sweet to bitter and became more and more bitter. Gu Wan could not help but frown.
"Beauty, this kind of alcohol won't feel anything after drinking, but the aftereffects are quite strong." The bartender also introduced his creation to Gu Wan. His words revealed a somewhat proud expression. This was indeed his masterpiece.
At this time, Gu Wan did not care so much. Then, there was only one color left in the glass. Many memories had already been evoked in Gu Wan's mind.
"Wan Wan, we will have a lot of children in the future. Then, I will take some time out of my work time to play with you and the children."
"I want the children to go to the best schools and receive the best education."
"Wan Wan, thank you for accompanying me for so many years. The road for the rest of my life is very long. I hope that you will be the only one on my road."
Two lines of clear tears slid down the corner of Gu Wan's eyes. A drop of tear fell into the glass in front of her and bloomed like a red spider lily by the Yellow Springs.
"Gong Mohan, you have already promised me so many things, but where are you? Didn't you say that you will only have me for the rest of your life? Then, do you not intend to participate in the rest of my life? "
Gu Wan muttered to herself. The bartender looked at Gu Wan and shook his head helplessly. In fact, he had seen countless people like Gu Wan who came to the bar to get drunk. There were also countless people who drank this glass of wine.
What was love in the world? However, the bartender did not know that Gu Wan in front of him might be different from other people who came to get drunk.
"Beauty, listen to my advice. Forget him. Men are all like this. They are very good to you at the beginning, but they will always change in the future. Don't be reluctant to leave him. Maybe you will meet someone better."
The bartender looked at Gu Wan's sad expression and comforted her.
However, what the bartender said was that he thought that Gu Wan was abandoned, or that her boyfriend ran away with someone else.
Gu Wan shook her head. "He didn't change. He just went to a very far place. I believe that he will come back one day."
Gu Wan glanced at the bartender and continued to ask, "Do you have the kind of wine that is very close to heaven?"
"This … beauty, you can't continue to drink. The original glass of wine in front of you is a mixture of several kinds of wine. If you drink another glass, I am afraid that you will really have to call an ambulance."
After listening to Gu Wan, the bartender seemed to understand what she meant. It seemed that he had misunderstood Gu Wan. For a moment, a look of guilt appeared on his face.
"I will send a message to my friend now. Someone will come to pick me up later. Don't worry." Gu Wan took out her mobile phone. Her slender fingers tapped on the keyboard a few times and sent the message. However, because of her dizziness, she did not know who the message was sent to.
The bartender was a little helpless. "Then I'll make you one last glass of wine. Today, the two of us got along well, but I also hope that after you finish this glass of wine, you can forget about him and start a new life. There are some things that can't be changed."
The bartender comforted Gu Wan sincerely. Looking at Gu Wan, he did not know how much Gu Wan loved the person in her heart, to the extent that she was in so much pain.
Then another glass of wine appeared in front of Gu Wan. This was a glass of wine that was blue at the bottom and white on the surface.
Gu Wan picked up the glass of wine and looked left and right. "Will I be closer to him after drinking this glass of wine?"
"This glass of wine is called 'The Nearest to Heaven' in our bar. It is a kind of strong wine. It tastes bitter and spicy. Not many people can bear it."
The bartender informed Gu Wan in advance, hoping that she would be mentally prepared before drinking.
Gu Wan picked up the half glass of black 'Mengpo Soup' with her left hand and the glass of 'The Nearest to Heaven' with her right hand. Her gaze became a little complicated, and her thoughts also drifted far away.
