die by your hands

Few people would disturb Bai Wei when he was playing the piano. This can be said to be a rare cleanliness habit of the young master of the Bai family who would criticize others - he needs an absolutely quiet environment so that he can concentrate on practicing the piano.

However, those who do not know are not guilty.This day, Bai Wei noticed An Tianming who was standing by and listening to him playing the piano. The former wasn't too displeased. The key was that the sympathy he had aroused last time hadn't dissipated. This made Bai Wei feel that he should treat him better.

After continuing to play the rest of the score, after hitting the last high note, Bai Wei turned his head to look at the person who was looking at him intently. "Why, are you fascinated by it?"

An Tianming came back to his senses suddenly, and smiled after a moment of embarrassment: "This song is really nice, what is it?"

"Secret."

An Tianming nodded understandingly: "If you can't say it, let it go."

Hearing this, Bai Wei glared at the other party bitterly.Speaking of it, Bai Wei can imagine that people who don't even know Conan don't know about the literary movie "The Unspeakable Secret", but he thinks this is at least a joke.After he answered "the secret that can't be told", the other party should ask "why can't you tell it", so he can seriously emphasize "it's a secret that can't be told!"

——Unexpectedly, the opponent didn't play cards according to the routine at all.This made Bai Wei speechless.

Then, An Tianming couldn't help laughing: "Although I haven't seen it, I have heard of "The Untold Secret"."

Bai Wei deliberated carefully and came to a conclusion: "That is to say, 'you can't say it' or something, are you kidding me?"

"Master Bai, I don't mean that."

"Come on, every time you say you don't mean that, you actually mean that." Bai Wei finally figured it out.

An Tianming continued to laugh: "Master Bai, you have a lot of adults, please don't let me ride in your car."

It's over, he has lost his majesty in front of a newcomer.Bai Wei thought in despair.

An Tianming comforted him: "Master Bai, I am still in awe of you."

...Wait, how do you know what I'm thinking?Are you Professor X?

"That's because you, Young Master Bai, said it yourself. Besides, is Professor X another movie?"

"What? Did I say it? I'm usually like this too?" Bai Wei was shocked.You know, he is a person with a lot of inner drama, if he really blurts out his thoughts from time to time, then how will he behave in the future? !

An Tianming pointed to the red wine glass next to him: "I think it's the fault of these red wines."

"But I only drank a little." Bai Wei doesn't like drinking, but recently his father can't control him when he goes abroad. Out of rebellion, he will drink alcoholic beverages that are not usually given to him. Just took a couple of sips.

"Red wine," An Tianming introduced seriously, "Some people are fine after a few bottles, while others will get drunk after just one sip."

Bai Wei glared at him.You just want to say that I'm a bad drinker!

"Although you are poor at drinking, you are good at playing the piano."

Very good, he must have not kept his mouth shut.Bai Wei felt that it was all the fault of the other party——

"How come you don't even know about the X-Men?" he scolded.

An Tianming replied nonchalantly: "As a driver, I must have very little knowledge."

"It has nothing to do with knowledge. What kind of movies do you usually watch?"

"I don't watch movies."

"...never read it?"

An Tianming thought for a while: "I don't like watching movies."

"If so what do you like?"

This time, An Tianming thought for a long time. "Nothing in particular."

Bai Wei couldn't imagine: "Then what do you do when you are idle and bored?"

"I have no time to be idle."

This time, Bai Wei consciously bit his lip.He couldn't let An Tianming hear how he thought of the other party's miserable life of struggling to survive. Everyone should hate being sympathized with.He raised his eyes and looked at the person who only cared about keeping himself alive since he was a child.It is reasonable that the other party has a stable job now, and the income is not too low, so it is not so difficult to live?

"Do you," he asked tentatively, "do you have any relatives who like to gamble? Or are you in debt?"

An Tianming looked back at Bai Wei quietly, and after a while, he smiled uncontrollably: "Young Master Bai, you really have a lot of inner drama, I just live a more fulfilling life, I'm not busy making money and even have time for entertainment. No."

"...So, you're saying that people like me who like to watch movies and other entertainments just don't have a fulfilling life, especially emptiness and no pursuit, right?"

"That was not what I meant."

"You really mean that!" According to the rule of "every time you say you don't mean that, you actually mean that", Bai Wei came to the conclusion indignantly.

An Tianming held back a smile and approached Bai Wei: "Master Bai, to prove that I don't look down on moviegoers, let me invite you to watch a movie?"

Absolutely not!What if the other party is just stubborn, but is really short of money?Bai Wei gave the second set of solutions disapprovingly: "I invite you to watch a movie, let's go."

Bai Wei is a very thoughtful person—whether others can see it or not, he knows it very well anyway—so, in order to prevent An Tianming from being a poor kid who doesn't even know how to entertain, Bai Wei Not only did he invite An Tianming to watch a movie that night, but he also dragged him to the bar where his father usually went to watch football as long as his father left him alone.

"Remember to protect yourself later. When fighting with others, you must strike first." Bai Wei who brought An Tianming into the bar solemnly told the former.

These earnest remarks attracted the attention of people around him: "What's the matter with 'later'?"

Bai Wei didn't answer this question, he focused on more important things first: "Let me test you first: Arsenal and Manchester United?"

An Tianming guessed: "Football?"

This answer is really worthless.Bai Wei was choked and had to explain in detail: "I mean Arsenal and Manchester United, which team do you support?"

An Tianming raised his eyebrows and looked at the other party: "What do you think?"

That's right, the other party was careful to even answer "football" just now, probably just heard these two names accidentally.That's good, Bai Wei is not afraid that the other party is an undercover agent: "Then it's settled—new here, you are an Arsenal fan from now on, you are not allowed to betray Arsenal."

"May I first find out what this has to do with the fight you mentioned earlier?" An Tianming asked cautiously.

Bai Wei quickly explained to him: "This bar not only allows you to play games of guessing winners and losers, but also offers discounted compensation for fights - in other words, fights are supported here. There is a match between Arsenal and Manchester United today, so, bar There are fans of Arsenal or Manchester United here, and when the game starts, it may happen here."

"...Have you ever encountered such a situation?"

"of course."

"...So your head must have been wounded?"

Bai Wei hadn't started drinking yet. He could understand the mockery of this line, and looked up coolly: "At least I wasn't hurt enough to understand that you imply that my brain is broken. In short, you are so 'awe' of me." ?”

An Tianming replied with a chuckle: "Master Bai, you also said that you have lost your authority. Of the two of us, naturally you are the one who has the final say."

"So you should know that if a man does something, even if he knows he will be beaten, he can't back down." Before the words fell, Bai Wei regretted so much that he wanted to hit his head—how could he expose his every moment so easily? What is the truth that the only fight is to be beaten?

I was thinking in my heart, what would An Tianming do if he dared to laugh at him... Secretly speaking, he really has no idea.An Tianming looked at him with a smile: "Don't worry, Young Master Bai, even if I'm not good at fighting, at most I'll be beaten today, I won't let you be beaten."

Bai Wei wanted to say that a big man doesn't need protection, and he really felt that way, thinking that An Tianming underestimated himself, but for some reason, he wasn't so angry. On the contrary, his heartbeat accelerated unscientifically, just like An Tianming It's like saying something great.

"What's wrong with you, Young Master Bai? Your face turns red before you drink it?"

An Tianming's voice brought Bai Wei back to his senses, who didn't know what he was thinking.The latter thought it must be too hot in the bar, but he didn't want to answer the other party's boring question.Quickly continue with your business: "Wait for me, I'll make a bet first!"

Bai Wei quickly left An Tianming behind. He stayed at the bar for a while while betting, and after making sure that he no longer felt the heat, he returned to his seat with the "lottery ticket".

An Tianming noticed the "lottery ticket" in Bai Wei's hand, "I was a little curious about the illegal gambling in this bar, but now I want to ask: Master Bai, are you really an Arsenal fan? Why did you buy Manchester United to win? "

This kind of philosophy of life Bai Wei has to be proud of his own state when he teaches it: "So, this is the enlightenment that the sun will be dire, and the moon will be full. You can't be too greedy. If Arsenal wins as I hope, I will win. You can still make money, which is too unfair to others.”

An Tianming immediately came to his senses: "Actually, this is the principle of diversification of investment. Arsenal won, of course you are very happy as a fan, but Arsenal lost, at least you won money, which is a bit of comfort."

Bai Wei didn't know why his philosophy became... so fluent when the other party uttered it.

"...In short, it's enough for anyone to have one good thing happen at a time."

An Tianming looked at Bai Wei slightly curiously: "Will you put weights on both sides of the balance at the same time for everything?"

"Yes." Bai Wei nodded, "I taught you an amazing life principle!"

"As an Arsenal fan, buying Manchester United to win, you are really amazing. You were beaten by Arsenal fans before, right?"

Bai Weizhen had never met a person who couldn't speak so much, he glared at him angrily: "I treat you as a friend and give you lessons, and you're just busy teasing me?"

"Master Bai, you are my boss, don't flatter me like that."

Compared with Bai Wei who has a clearer distinction between love and hatred—no matter what others say, Bai Wei knows himself that well anyway—An Tianming always has a kind of friendliness when facing Bai Wei, even when he is "specially unable to speak" For the first time, Bai Wei felt a sense of alienation that was almost disgusting from the other party.Bai Wei even suspected that this was the first time that the other party showed his true emotions to him. The person who said "don't flatter me" actually looked down on Bai Wei at all in his heart.

Bai Wei felt an inexplicable chill from an unknown place inside his body.The alcohol ironed out his body, but his mind suddenly became sober.He looked up at the man beside him. "So, you think I'm only worthy of being your boss, not your friend?"

An Tianming didn't answer "I didn't mean that" like any other time in the past, he looked at Bai Wei quietly, a trace of sincerity flashed in his eyes.

"Master Bai, you just think that you are qualified to let everyone be your friend. I don't mean that you are arrogant, but this is just a game for you, right? In fact, you don't look down on us servants at all. You never Don't call me by my name, only 'newcomer' when you want to call me. You don't respect me, but you don't need to respect me to be my friend-because you think that facing us servants, you Qualified enough to do anything, and those are your handouts from above, right?"

Bai Wei has a lot of words to refute——

He called An Tianming "Newcomer" because that was a nickname... In elementary school, he even called a classmate "Snot", and the other party never raised any objections... Although it is really not good to think about that nickname now... But He's just like that...maybe he's not very polite...he never thought of being disrespectful...maybe he doesn't know how to respect people...but no one ever told him he was arrogant...of course he didn't know...no People told him...he didn't want this...

All self-justification ends up in a mess.Bai Wei became more and more angry, because he found that he had no way to win the opponent.

"Actually, you just want to say that I'm arrogant." Bai Wei stood up from the chair, "Sorry, Mr. An Tianming, I'm such an arrogant person." After speaking coldly, he turned and walked out of the bar.
