Then, we returned to the dinner table. Everyone talked and laughed for a long time. When it was over, Jiang Qing sent someone to take me and Duanmu Que back home.
When we returned, Duanmu Que didn't seem to be in a good mood. He sat alone on the sofa by the window and stared blankly. I looked at his worried face and was worried. Perhaps Lv Sixue's appearance had affected Duanmu Que greatly. I poured a glass of water and handed it to Duanmu Que. He glanced at me, his eyes full of unhappiness.
"Maybe I'm not a good man." He shook his head.
I held his head in my arms and gently stroked his hair. "The past you is the past. At least now, you're a good husband."
"Actually, I don't care how she treats me. But if you're involved, I can't imagine what I'll become."
Hearing him say that, I was inexplicably moved. "There are some things that two people have to bear together, right?"
Duanmu Que hugged me tightly. "Xiao Li, it's my fault. We were in the mood for our honeymoon."
"You're thinking too much. Tomorrow, I'll take you out for a walk. You'll be fine."
"Mm, mm." He nodded gently.
After a quiet night, we snuggled together and slept soundly. We didn't wake up until noon. In the morning, we received a call from Jiang Qing. He wanted to arrange a driver for us to go out, but Duanmu Que and I refused. The two of us discussed and decided to go to a bar to experience New York's nightlife. Of course, we still told Uncle Jiang about it. Uncle Jiang was afraid that we would be bullied in an unfamiliar place, so he arranged for Jiang Qing to come with us.
Just after noon, Jiang Qing came to my house and didn't want to leave. He kept pestering Duanmu Que to play games with him. Duanmu Que couldn't refuse, so he braced himself and played with Jiang Qing for the whole afternoon. At night, the three of us casually dressed up and went to a very famous local bar. Although the bar was small, it was very popular.
After entering the bar, he looked around. Most of the people there were American locals. There were also a few foreigners. There were still many people who came here to have fun. The three of us found a seat near the stage and sat down. The waiter warmly received us. Jiang Qing said a few words to the waiter and gave him a tip. The waiter smiled and left. Jiang Qing asked us to wait for a while.
The official performance hadn't started yet, but all the booths were already filled. The environment was pretty good. After a while, a tall and sweet mixed-race girl wearing a short cheongsam walked toward us. Jiang Qing welcomed her with a happy face. He pulled the girl into his arms and gave her a gentle kiss.
The two of them turned around. The girl smiled and waved at us. Jiang Qing pulled her in front of us. "Big sis, this is my girlfriend, Cici." He turned around and said to the girl, "This is my brother-in-law, Duanmu Que. This is big sis, Cold Glaze. I've mentioned them to you before."
Cici threw herself in front of me with a smile and tightly held my arm. "Big sis, you're so pretty. You're even prettier than Brother Qing described."
I awkwardly replied, "H-hello, Cici." Duanmu Que also smiled and waved at her.
Cici smiled even more happily. She stood in front of me and looked at us. "Big sis, brother-in-law, you guys go ahead and play. I'll go make some arrangements. I'll be back soon."
After saying that, Cici waved her hand and left. Before she left, she didn't forget to give Jiang Qing a kiss on his face, leaving a red lipstick mark on his face. I looked at Jiang Qing with a smirk, waiting for him to explain to me what had happened.
Jiang Qing scratched his head. "Okay, okay, I'll tell you. She's Cici. Her father is American and her mother is Chinese. This bar is owned by their family. Cici is the best bartender here. I met her by chance when I came to this bar with my friends. I fell in love with her at first sight and spent a lot of effort to get her."
"Does Uncle Jiang know?" Duanmu Que asked.
Jiang Qing nodded vigorously. "My dad knows. He's also seen Xiao Li. My mom also likes Xiao Li. If nothing unexpected happens, I plan to propose to her this year."
I suddenly seemed to understand something. I hooked my arm around Jiang Qing's neck. "You little brat, did you arrange for us to come here today so that we could meet our future sister-in-law? You're a scheming brat. "
"Big sister, please spare me. I was afraid that if I told you and brother-in-law too directly, you two would deliberately prepare. How unnatural would that be?" Jiang Qing looked wronged as he begged for mercy.
I let go of his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll spare you. I think this little girl isn't bad. Treat her well."
Jiang Qing scratched his head with a red face. "I know, big sister."
While we were talking and laughing, a voice suddenly came from behind us. "Hey, isn't this Duanmu Que?" We turned around and saw that it was none other than Lv Sixue. Lv Sixue stood there with her arm around Duanmu Que's arm. She was followed by several men and women. She walked in front of Duanmu Que and looked at him.
"I didn't expect to see you here." She turned around and looked at me and Jiang Qing. "Oh, right, and your bitch and dog."
Obviously, she was looking for trouble. Jiang Qing was so angry that he wanted to confront her, but I stopped him.
Duanmu Que glared at her. "You better watch your mouth."
"What can you do to me if I don't watch my mouth?" Lv Sixue looked at Duanmu Que with provocative eyes. I saw that Duanmu Que was about to lose control, so I stood in front of Duanmu Que and looked at Lv Sixue.
"Lv Sixue, we're here to play. We don't want to cause trouble. Let's play on our own. Don't cause unnecessary trouble." I politely negotiated with Lv Sixue.
"Slap!" Lv Sixue swung her hand and slapped my face. My face burned with pain. Before I could react, Duanmu Que hugged me tightly and covered my face. Jiang Qing grabbed Lv Sixue's hand. "What are you doing? Looking for trouble? "
Lv Sixue looked at Duanmu Que hugging me and became even angrier. She reached out and picked up the ashtray on the table and was about to throw it at us. At that moment, she suddenly heard CICI's voice. "No! Stop! "While Lv Sixue was in a daze, Jiang Qing took the opportunity to snatch the ashtray.
CICI stood to the side and said to Lv Sixue: "Miss, hello. If you're here to have fun, then we welcome you. If you're here to cause trouble, then I'm sorry, but we don't welcome you. If you insist on causing trouble, then we'll have to take measures."
Lv Sixue glanced at CICI. "And what are you?"
CICI's face turned red and she said firmly: "I'm the person in charge here!"
