As they walked, a tall woman wearing a cheongsam suddenly appeared beside Zhuang Haixia. No one knew where she came from, as if she was a ghost that suddenly appeared from the ground. Zhuang Haixia was not surprised by this. The woman led the way and soon the three of them entered a room in the west wing. The room was dark and there was no light at all. The woman in the cheongsam took out a fiery red star from somewhere and blew on it. It turned into a small torch. She then found the palace lanterns on the table and lit them all. Then she left.
Li Ruiqi said, "What was that thing in her hand? How did it catch fire just by blowing on it? "Zhuang Haixia laughed," You're ignorant. That's a fire starter! "Li Rui suddenly understood and said," So that's how it is. That's really new! "
An Ying and Li Rui had never been here before, so they looked around the room at the same time. They saw that the room was divided into an inner and outer room. In the middle of the outer room, there was a Chinese sofa with red flowers and pear, a set of old-fashioned wooden armchairs, and a marble tea table. On the east wall, there was a multi-treasure shelf with all kinds of antiques. In the middle of the room, there was a screen. When they went around the screen and looked into the inner room, they saw a small heatable brick bed. On the bed, there was a short dining table with two cushions on it. It was very classical. In addition, the walls of the inner and outer rooms were decorated with calligraphy and paintings, which made the environment more elegant and unique.
Li Rui walked around the room and returned to Zhuang Haixia's side, saying, "Today was really an eye-opener." Zhuang Haixia smiled and looked at him, saying, "Look at your ignorant face! Go back a hundred years, that's it! Let's order some wine. "
Li Rui thought that such an antique club would definitely provide domestic wine, such as rice wine or white wine. Who would have thought that all the wine sold here was foreign wine? When he found out, he almost laughed his teeth out. He thought that this place was selling dog meat under false pretenses.
When the wine was served, the three of them clinked glasses and each took a sip. Then they talked about farewell, drinking and chatting. The atmosphere was tranquil and gentle.
Li Rui learned about the process of how An Ying and Zhuang Haixia became friends. An Ying came to Beijing after the New Year and wanted to start a business but had no idea. She was very depressed. Later, when she passed by the entrance of Central Television, she stopped and reminisced about her work in the station. Coincidentally, Zhuang Haixia, who was passing by, recognized her. and it was the first time the two women met each other in real life. The two of them had a working relationship and had worked together before. When they met, they were both captivated by each other's appearance, temperament, and style of conversation. The more they talked, the closer they got. They had lunch together that afternoon. After that, they talked on the phone from time to time. They ate and went shopping together on weekends. Slowly, they became best friends who talked about everything.
An Ying listened to Zhuang Haixia talk about the past and was very emotional. She said, "I never thought that I would become friends with the two of you. I am very grateful to the two of you. If it weren't for the two of you, I wouldn't have resolutely chosen to leave that life. Although my previous life was rich and carefree, it blinded my mind and trampled on my dignity. It's funny that I didn't realize it … Come, let me toast to the two of you. Thank you for letting me face the sun again. "After she finished speaking, she raised her glass.
Zhuang Haixia and Li Rui looked at each other and raised their glasses. The three of them clinked their glasses together. An Ying raised her head and drank all of them. When Li Rui saw this, he looked at Zhuang Haixia. Zhuang Haixia curled her lips and stared at him with disdain. She said, "Why are you looking at me? An Ying has already drank. If you are a man, you should stop talking nonsense. "After she finished speaking, she also drank the wine in her glass.
Li Rui knew that this young lady's alcohol tolerance was not bad, but he had already trained his alcohol tolerance to a small extent. At the very least, he would not lose to her. He smiled, brought the wine cup to his mouth, and downed it in one gulp.
Just like this, the three of them chatted and laughed as they drank. They were very happy and didn't realize that time had flown by.
An Ying's appearance was beautiful and elegant. Her temperament was otherworldly. She gave people the feeling that they could only look at her from afar and not get close to her. However, if they really got to know her well, they would realize that she was also very lively and cheerful. She was also humorous and very attractive. Of course, most people didn't realize this because it wasn't easy to get close to her. If Li Rui hadn't gone through so many trials and tribulations with her and slowly became familiar with her, he wouldn't have seen the other side of her that was hidden under her cold and elegant appearance.
As they drank and chatted, Li Rui and An Ying had a very pleasant conversation. They talked and laughed. Not only did they completely eliminate the estrangement from not seeing each other for many days, they also improved their friendship. They were like a pair of old friends.
When it was 11: 30 pm, everyone had drunk three or four glasses. They were all slightly tipsy. Zhuang Haixia suddenly slammed the coffee table and said, "It's boring to drink like this. Let's play a game of truth?"
At that time, Li Rui was drinking. When he heard this, he didn't swallow a mouthful of wine and it went straight down his windpipe. He immediately coughed violently and complained in his heart. Why do girls nowadays like to play truth? Is this a popular game this year, or is this the only game that can be played when drinking? F * ck, he had just been covered by Tang Su underwear. He didn't want to play anymore. He waved his hand and said, "No, no, I don't want to play."
He sat on a single armchair and the two women sat on the Chinese sofa beside him. Zhuang Haixia was sitting beside him. She was very unhappy when she heard what he said. She lifted her leg and kicked him. "What do you mean? I just suggested it and you're objecting. Are you slapping my face? Let me tell you, you have to play tonight whether you want to or not. If you don't want to play, I'll kick you out right now. Do you believe me? "
Li Rui looked at her and then at An Ying. He saw that An Ying was looking at him with a lustful expression. It was as if she was looking forward to something. He could only nod and say, "Okay, okay, we'll play. But let me say this first. You're not allowed to use this game to trick me." Zhuang Haixia said curiously, "Why would I trick you? Playing a game is just playing a game. Everyone is just having fun. "Li Rui said," Okay, then let's start. Is it a rock-paper-scissors game? The winner will talk. "
Zhuang Haixia shook her head and told him the rules of the game. There are dice under the coffee table. The three of you will roll the dice to see who's bigger or bigger. Whoever gets the smallest number will drink a glass of wine and answer any question from the person with the highest number. You're not allowed to cheat. If you cheat, you'll be punished with a bottle of wine.
When Li Rui heard that it was just answering questions without any punishment, he was the first to agree. Of course, even if he didn't agree, the game had already started.
Zhuang Haixia took out the dice from under the coffee table and put it on the coffee table. Li Rui picked up the dice without any hesitation. He was the first to throw but only got a three. An Ying was the second to throw and got a five. Zhuang Haixia picked up the dice and blew on it. Then, she let the dice face up and gently threw it on the table. A miracle happened. The dice flipped a few times on the table and finally got a six.
Li Rui was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He cried out involuntarily, "Oh my god, you know how to play this game?" Zhuang Haixia raised the corner of her red lips and said proudly, "I know a lot of things. Do I have to tell you everything?" Then, she kicked him and said, "I got the biggest number and you got the smallest number. It's my turn to ask you. You answer me." Li Rui said, "What's there to answer? You haven't asked yet." Zhuang Haixia rolled her eyes and looked at An Ying. She laughed and asked, "Between An Ying and me, who do you like more?"
Li Rui and An Ying didn't expect her to ask such a sensitive question. They were a little embarrassed. An Ying gently pinched Zhuang Haixia's arm and then quickly looked at Li Rui, waiting for his answer.
Li Rui glared hatefully at Zhuang Haixia, then turned to look at An Ying. He saw that her face was flushed red, and her expression was both shy and angry. Under the candlelight, she looked like a bride who had just entered the bridal chamber. The only thing she lacked was a phoenix coronet and a wedding gown. Li Rui's heart throbbed, and he turned to look at Zhuang Haixia's face. He saw that this girl's face was also flushed red, and her appearance was indescribably beautiful, just as beautiful as An Ying's. Li Rui felt very awkward, and he really didn't know how to answer.
Zhuang Haixia laughed and said, "No, you have to answer this question!" Li Rui said, "The three of us are friends. There is no ambiguous relationship between us. If you ask this question …" Zhuang Haixia interrupted, "Even if there is no ambiguous relationship between us and you just like her, you still have to answer. Who do you like more? Hehe. "Li Rui blurted out," Okay, I like An Ying more. "He then looked at her, hoping that she would understand.
He naturally had a deeper relationship with Zhuang Haixia, so he chose to take care of An Ying's face. Even if Zhuang Haixia's question was just a joke, it was still a matter of face. He had to take care of An Ying.
An Ying heard and her eyelids drooped. She picked up her wine glass and took a sip.
Zhuang Haixia, however, was greatly displeased and glared fiercely at Li Rui. Li Rui hurriedly gave her a look, but she was too lazy to understand. She just glared at him resentfully. Li Rui smiled and explained, "Of course I like An Ying more. Who asked you to come up with this game to make things difficult for me?" Zhuang Haixia didn't know if she understood, but she curled her lips and said, "Again!" She didn't forget to pat An Ying's thigh and said, "An Ying, he likes you more. After drinking, remember to bring him to your house. Don't forget."
An Ying didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "Stop fooling around!"
Li Rui smiled and shook his head. He accepted his punishment and drank the wine in his glass.
The three of them started the second round. Li Rui wasn't satisfied with his luck and decided to be the first to throw. He picked up the dice and imitated how Zhuang Haixia threw it. He threw the one side on the table, but it turned out to be a two.
Zhuang Haixia laughed and said disdainfully, "You want to imitate me? Have you paid the tuition?" He took the dice and threw a five. He looked at Li Rui and sneered.
