I thought I was a jerk

This weird mood was dispelled after watching for a while.

Xie Wenhan seemed to have only gotten closer at first, and after Xue Ci backed away, he still maintained this distance.He lowered his eyes slightly, and even though he was wearing a mask, he could deduce from the exposed lower half of his face that it was an extremely handsome and profound face, with a gentle smile on his lips.Xie Wenhan held the bottle with his slender fingers, and poured out the wine fluently. The wine was overflowing, and the fragrance was strong. Such a beautiful trick is really powerful, and it is not too much compared to the professional bartenders in their bars. .

The poured wine was handed to Xue Ci.

He seemed to have said something, and Young Master Xue also slightly bent his lower lip.

It was clearly due to the distance of etiquette, and the two of them seemed to be talking at a certain distance, but in such an atmosphere where the ambiguity filled the entire space like the strong aroma of wine, it was really too weird.The dazzling lights of the bar fell on the two of them, illuminating a pair of eyes full of deep emotions.

Even the young girl who didn't have such emotional sensitivity around her seemed to be aware of this extraordinary atmosphere in an instant, and her eyes wandered uncomfortably.

They stood by for a while, occasionally being asked about the origin and taste of the wine, and they would start to introduce it.Later, Xie Wenhan finally let the two of them go back and gave a big tip, but the young man took it but was a little absent-minded.

He always felt, felt—

The relationship between those two people should be unusual, right?

At least the guest wearing the golden mask, to the guest wearing the silver mask... He suddenly thought of Xie Wenhan's dark, unwavering eyes, the terrifying emotion revealed when he glanced over, his body jerked trembled a bit.

He was vigilantly aware that this was not his business anyway.

The waiter in charge of pouring the wine left, and Xie Wenhan could finally have some private conversations with Xue Ci alone.

It's not really a private conversation.

Xie Wenhan also drank a little wine, and he was the one who spoke mostly, talking more than before.Xie Wenhan would talk about his life over the years, the friends he met, the experience of being admitted to Huada...Of course, what he did after he got the stepfather's property and compensation.

Even his mother.

These years, Xie Wenhan has rarely seen his mother. The woman is living well under the care of doctors and nurses, as if she has let go of the past.She believes in God, goes to church every weekend, and prays in the morning and before going to bed, which seems to have redeemed her soul.When seeing Xie Wenhan again, the guilt and uneasiness that oppressed her all the time has faded a lot.

When Xie Wenhan talked about all this, his expression was very flat.

That might be fine too.

His mother had let go of the past.So is he.

Xue Ci is a quiet listener.

Perhaps alcohol is too easy to lower people's vigilance, and it is too easy to let people off their guard.Even though this is not a very suitable place for heart-to-heart talk, it happens to be able to keep all the secrets.

The lights are dazzling, and you can hear other people's carnival celebrations while sitting in the deck.At the corner of the other hall is the dance floor set up by LM. There are many men and women dancing casually on it, and the sweat and hormones stimulated countless times have contributed to such a carnival night.And Xue Ci and Xie Wenhan sat in such a corner, low-key and incompatible with this bar.But they are free to talk, open their secrets, and don't have to worry about being overheard in a rowdy environment.

Xue Ci drank a lot of wine one after another, even if it was low-alcohol alcohol, it made the half of his face under the mask appear obviously light red.

It's also because his skin is too fair, so the effect of alcohol can be easily shown on his face. It is an extremely bewitching crimson red, which is extremely eye-catching and beautiful under the dim and complicated light.

"You are amazing." Xue Ci said sincerely.

Fate has never been fair to him, but although Xue Ci has undergone many trials, he did not struggle to survive in such a barren gap, and he has never met such a stepfather... Although his biological father was not treated him well in his previous life very good.

After encountering Xie Wenhan who was almost miserable, he finally stood up.

He has changed his life, has a bright future, has his own career goals, and has also shown amazing talent in the field of chips.Xue Ci frowned slightly, and remained silent for a few seconds. Alcohol didn't make him drunk, but it made his thinking a little dull. "If I were in the same environment as you, it would be even worse."

Xue Ci smiled mockingly, "If I wasn't the young master of the Xue family, I might not be able to do anything..." Before he finished speaking, Xie Wenhan suddenly reached out and took Xue Ci's hand.

Xie Wenhan originally had a low body temperature, but at this moment he realized that Xue Ci's fingertips were colder than his. The chill seemed to be transmitted from the place where they touched, even Xie Wenhan's hands were cold. Freeze them together.But at that moment, Xie Wenhan clenched the soft skin under his fingertips, his eyelashes twitched violently, and he slurred his words in a panic: "No, it's not."

"It's not like this."

"Even if you are not the young master of the Xue family, you are still..." Xie Wenhan thought, you saved me.

Not only was he rescued from his stepfather who had been executed, but he was rescued from the tattered and beaten body, and Xie Wenhan's soul that had fallen into the abyss was also salvaged.

Because of Xue Ci, Xie Wenhan did not become a bloody monster who disregarded the law and morality.The beast in his heart voluntarily got into the cage, and he was willing to hand over the key to restrain himself to others every day in the future.

He knew better than anyone else that the noble and supposedly mighty Young Master Xue had an inconceivably soft heart that attracted the covetousness of wild beasts.

At that time, Xie Wenhan thought that he must kill that scumbag.

Disassemble his bones one by one, and chop up the meat finely, let him taste the same gloomy despair before dying, and make him regret that he was born in this world in this life.

But Xie Wenhan didn't do that.

Fortunately, because of a scumbag, he didn't turn himself into a monster with a layer of skin.

Xie Wenhan once regarded all his emotions towards Xue Ci as gratitude, but in this world there will no longer be a kind of gratitude, it is the last chain that binds him and the world.

Coming to drink is not a good idea, because Xue Ci is quite sure that his consciousness is beginning to blur.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Xie Wenhan.The corners of the eyes are reddish, slightly upward, with a kind of moist water vapor, so that the look is very charming.Xie Wenhan paused for a short while, and didn't make a sound, just silently staring at Xue Ci in front of him.

Xue Ci knew that now was not a good time, he should have come to accompany Xie Wenhan, not to vent his negative emotions.

But Xue Ci didn't have so many scruples in the first place.

Xue Ci didn't care about being known about his leaving the Xue family, and keeping silent was not to hide anything, it was just that no one needed him to tell.At this time, he looked at Xie Wenhan with ruddy eyes that seemed to be stained with water vapor, and said softly: "I have already left Xue's house."

"From now on, I'm not Young Master Xue." Xue Ci's eyes were so calm that he couldn't shake any ripples. He seemed to smile, but the smile on his lips didn't reach his eyes at all, "I can't help you. I can't do anything more. Xie Wenhan."

Xue Ci is not a person who likes to speculate on others.

But all the things he experienced in his previous life... Even the superficially good attitude, the source can be easily traced.

Because he is the second son of the Xue family, even if he is not favored or rejected, he will have a lot of benefits that can be squeezed dry.It is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. In his previous life, he completely fell out with Xue's father. When he was lying in the ICU, even if Xue Zhengjing hadn't formally expelled him, he couldn't have been more indifferent in front of the door.

Because he is no longer the young master of the Xue family from now on, nor can he bring any benefits.

In Xue Ci's eyes, other people's affection for him... Except for his mentor, they can't get out of this circle.

Xie Wenhan established a company and is doing investment and various projects, but he can't help him with anything, and he has nothing to gain.He suddenly stubbornly wanted to tell Xie Wenhan, at least tell him this, don't expect to get some strange expectations and expectations from him - Xue Ci saw Xie Wenhan slightly pursed his lips, his Adam's apple rolled, his eyes were Pretty moody black.

He said, "I know."

Xie Wenhan knows?

Xue Ci was a little hoarse.This was then interpreted to mean "I know".

His chaotic thinking made it impossible for him to push this answer into a guessing direction—for example, Xie Wenhan came back only after he got the news of his departure.

Xue Ci just closed his eyes, and drank another glass of dark blue wine packed in crushed ice. The pungent taste was greatly reduced by the fused ice balls. His tongue was slightly numb, and he couldn't taste the danger behind the high concentration of alcohol. , just said when the eyelashes were stretched heavily, almost unable to lift them up from exhaustion: "Don't you want to ask me the reason?"

If it was the usual Xue Ci, of course he would not have asked this question.

Because this is something he is destined to be unable to answer, how could he mention it without reason, in an almost seductive tone, to observe whether others will fall into his trap.

Xie Wenhan's gaze was always on Xue Ci.

"...I don't want to know," he said.

"Xue Ci," Xie Wenhan's voice sounded like the seduction of a siren from the deep sea, "I only want you...to do what you want."

There is no reason.

No advice either.

Even a slightly more rational person should tell Xue Ci after comforting him.You should go back to Xue's house, back to your loved ones, where there is any blood feud, time cannot heal it.

But Xie Wenhan became a ghost to help the evildoers, a siren who lured innocent humans into the sea. He told Xue Ci, do what you want.

Other than that, I'll level everything for you.

In those dark eyes, there seemed to be a little bright light, dazzling, eye-catching, and palpitatingly bright.Xue Ci was so stabbed by this light that he almost burned, he looked away, but the thoughts of breaking through the fence and growing wantonly could not be stopped because of this.

His vision extended to the end of the dazed end, there was nothing there, and the sanity corroded by alcohol gradually returned, causing Xue Ci to have a headache.

"I'm sorry." Xue Ci's voice was slightly hoarse, with a sense of apology, "I was rude."

Xie Wenhan's eyes narrowed slightly.

He was very knowledgeable, and he did not pursue the victory at this time, but said mildly: "I drank too much wine, I have a headache. I will send some honey water...Xue Ci, you should also need it."

Xue Ci laughed a little, "Will there be honey water in the bar?"

Xie Wenhan said: "There will always be."

As long as the money is enough.

Sure enough, the waiter got the honey water very quickly, and it was still warm. The two young people in this corner of the bar began to drink the warm honey water like health practitioners.

Xue Ci's lips were stained with water, and he was in a hurry to drink.The alcohol intake has not yet faded the deep red from his face, but it can still be seen that his pale complexion should be as white as melting snow.This kind of contrast makes his lips red and conspicuous, like the color dyed by the most delicate rose juice.

A little scarlet.

Xie Wenhan's eyes flicked across his lips hastily.

It was just a quick glance, but Xie Wenhan was able to clearly outline the shapes and colors in his heart, such reveries even made his fingertips feel hot.He was so preoccupied that he missed the message that a certain young man was approaching, and he didn't have time to stop him with his eyes.When he raised his eyes, the other party was already standing in front of him, sending out an invitation uneasily.

The young boy had an earphone hanging on his shoulder. He had a refreshing and handsome appearance, with his friends pushing him behind him.

"I've been peeking at you for a long time." He whispered.

In fact, it wasn't just him, two very good-looking newcomers appeared in LM, they were not accompanied by each other, they didn't kiss or hug, they didn't look like a couple, of course there were many people staring at them.

It's a pity that the two newcomers never seem to want to further communicate. They wear masks, which means that they will not actively communicate with others, but just drink and talk with each other. In the environment of LM-others are boring, they It's cold to do.As a result, many people feel itchy and unbearable, but dormant and dare not act rashly.That is to say, the boys saw that they seemed to have finished drinking, so they couldn't help but look at them a few more times. They happened to lose their minds while playing a game, and they were encouraged by their bad friends to come and invite them.

The person he invited was Xue Ci.

Seeing Xue Ci tilting his head slightly, and seemed a little puzzled by his words, the boy quickly explained: "I'm not a pervert, and I haven't peeked for a long time... just, just." He almost bit his tongue , "I just watched it for a while. Mainly, mainly because I was a little curious."

"I wanted to invite you to dance with me."

The people on the dance floor were in high spirits, and countless figures were swaying. The boy pointed and saw Xue Ci's way of looking at him quietly all the time, without any intention of moving. Pursing her lips, her face was hot, "I'm sorry."

Xue Ci said, "It doesn't matter."

He also needs a sober moment now.

Xue Ci stood up: "We..."

Xie Wenhan realized that Xue Ci wanted to agree, and his expression remained motionless, but he stood up faster than Xue Ci, his cold and handsome eyebrows were always slightly lowered, and he took the first step: "I am also together."

But the moment he spoke, he was overwhelmed by another burst of screams and cheers, as enthusiastic as if just now, LM's boss announced that the audience would be free.

But as long as you are more careful, you can find that those men and women who stood up from their seats turned to the same direction. They all raised their hands, clapping and screaming generously. For a while, they could only see those waving white wrist.

Where they are facing is a stage.

The last rock band that played has left, and a new band is coming up this time.The staff is helping to move the heavy musical instruments up, and some people are adjusting the equipment. In short, they are still in the process of preparation, and the enthusiasm of countless people has been aroused before the performance has started.

The little boy who chatted with Xue Ci just now seemed to be a little excited, the corners of his eyes slightly raised, and he said happily: "It's Lin Shen's performance! It's not Sunday today, so I thought he wouldn't come. He actually bumped into him." It's good luck to go to his home court—”

Xue Ci was slightly stunned.

He looked at the stage in the center of LM, which was arranged but still seemed a little narrow, and a name appeared in his mind almost instantly.

Xue Ci's expression quickly calmed down, and he asked the people around him, "God Lin? Lin Baihua?"

"Huh..." Xue Ci was very happy to be able to talk to himself.But the little boy couldn't answer this question, hesitantly said, "I only know his surname is Lin, but I don't know what his name is."

The fans in these bars are all shouted by Lin Shen and Lin Shen.

There was no difference between Xue Ci's attitude before and after, but Xie Wenhan noticed Xue Ci's short-term trance and hesitation, and almost instantly locked in that Xue Ci probably knew this person... At least he would be a little concerned, his eyes sank slightly.

In this bar, there are people Xue Ci cares about.

His eyes also fell on the stage.

Xue Ci's question was quickly confirmed, because amidst the cheers of the guests below, the person whom they called "Lin Shen" finally appeared.

Different from the eye-catching and almost exaggerated styles of other band members, "Lin Shen" didn't even dye his hair, didn't wear earrings, and didn't have any tattoos. His slightly long black hair covered his eyes, and he was wearing a T-shirt with the image of the god of death on his body. .

After taking the stage, I didn't see any swearing, or interacting with the guests below, to heat up the atmosphere or something, and I started singing with the microphone——

And at the first sentence he spoke, the screaming guests also fell silent in an instant, allowing his singing to flow through the entire LM, not as quiet as a bar.

The song I sang has never been heard before, but it is very nice, making people wonder which unpopular masterpiece it is.

Only Xue Ci knew that this was Lin Baihua's original song.

On a popular variety talk show, the host asked about Lin Baihua's past, and he said that before his debut, he sang in a bar.

In the past days, Lin Baihua had a precarious life. He signed a contract with the bar at the beginning, and he only paid 80 yuan for one night of singing, and he could only leave after singing for two years.Later, I made a little more money, and because of my good singing, I changed from a small bar to a big bar.Sing again, it's over.

Such an understatement of the past by him has earned enough tears from fans.

At that time, Lin Baihua was already a popular traffic star, and was hailed as the last god in the declining music scene.He is indeed very talented, so much so that fans rely on his idol's performance to be arrogant and domineering, almost offending most of the entertainment industry.In the end, his reputation was mixed, and he could be called the most "bloody" physique in the entertainment industry.

It's also interesting to say that when Xue Ci was young, he didn't do anything to get along with his peers, but he was tortured as an adult, but he found a spiritual sustenance and started chasing stars.

At that time, he liked Lin Bai's paintings very much, and there were also people who liked Lin Bai's paintings.

But this kind of liking is not so enthusiastic, it's just the generosity of spending money for Lin Bai's paintings.He never thought of meeting Lin Baihua with the power of the Xue family—to be honest, even his concert, Xue Ci didn't have time to go to the scene, and he was chasing stars like a fake fan.

But I don't know who has found out about his little hobby. Xue Ci went to an unavoidable drinking game. In addition to his partners, there were also the boss of Shining Star Entertainment... and the biggest brand of Shining Star Entertainment. Painted by artist Lin Bai.

Lin Bai seldom talks, his face is smelly, and he is extremely cold.

Obviously not voluntary.

Xue Ci remained expressionless the whole time, even more indifferent than Lin Baihua, he couldn't tell at all that he was a fan of Lin Baihua, and even Xingyao's boss began to be upset.

His partner has always been ruthless, and he also likes to engage in these financial transactions.Arranging Lin Baihua here was really not just for them to have a meal and get to know each other, but for the idea of ​​sending them to Xue Ci's bed.Xue Ci didn't take it, so he took it himself and took the medicine anyway.

After all, it was still his idol, Xue Ci was cold-hearted, not cruel, and used favors to bring Lin Baihua out of the drinking party.He called a private doctor again, diagnosed and cured Lin Baihua, and sent him back without moving a finger.

However, this matter was exposed the next day. Lin Baihua was determined to kill Xingyao Entertainment and several company principals whom he hooked up with. He obtained countless evidences in order to bring down the intricate power-sex transactions.Xue Ci also became a victim and a sinner. Although the information was not disclosed, everyone knew that there was a "Xue Mou" with a strong background as an illegitimate meal, colluding with the boss of Xingyao and the boss of a certain company, and the intention of unspoken rules failed.

They failed to convict him, but the fans scolded him tens of thousands of times, telling him to be a villain.

Xue Ci waited until the matter subsided, but did not wait for clarification or apology.

His first star chasing ended in a fiasco.

It's rare to do a good deed but not get rewarded, Xue Ci is used to it.

His memory was also interrupted by the cheers around him. The radiant singer on the stage had finished the first song and was adjusting the microphone. The people around him were captured by his singing.Now Lin Baihua has not made his debut yet, and he is still working as a small resident singer in the bar, but he already has a very "hot face".

And Xue Ci looked up at him, as if he was admiring a certain work of art, there was no infected enthusiasm in his eyes, and he just listened to his song plainly.

Xie Wenhan lowered his eyes.

Compared with other people's admiration, Xie Wenhan's eyes were as cold as a freak.
