Xie Huai's so-called friends are the resident singers and bartenders he met at gay bars in his freshman year.They are not highly educated, but they are all decent people.

So as soon as he called for the wind and rain, four or five wine and meat friends came to sing with him.

Xie Huai found a well-known KTV chain in the country, opened a luxurious overnight room, and ordered two boxes of Budweiser at the front desk for them to deliver.

Budweiser, a light lager with low bitterness and little foam, is his favorite flavor.

Old friends gathered together, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.Xie Huai opened a few bottles of beer and gave them to them. Everyone chatted and laughed, and they each ordered their own songs to cheer up their voices, and they soon became active.

"Have you been going well recently?" One of the bartenders was the first to speak, because of the noisy singing at the scene, and he yelled loudly, "I heard that you were hanged up by that engineering teacher last year. What do you say this year?"

"It's not bad." Xie Huai announced the good news but not the bad news. He squeezed a few drops of lemon juice into the beer, slowly stirred the ice cubes, and took a leisurely sip while leaning on the sofa. A silly teaching assistant was given to me as a gift."

"Yo, it sounds like a male teaching assistant?" He whistled, "Do you have a story, tell me?"

Which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted.Xie Huai became angry when he thought of him, and almost choked on his drink: "No story, just a dead-headed bking, and broke my spiritual food."

The bartender smiled again and asked, "How do you look?"

looks?Xie Huai hesitated for a few seconds when he heard this question.In fact, in terms of appearance and figure alone, Qin Yiyan is indeed excellent and impeccable.

However, how can you not consider your personality when getting along with people!

Thinking of his dogmatic and stubborn appearance, Xie Huai immediately yelled: "Ugly! It's so ugly! An old doctoral student in his 30s is bald like a Mediterranean."

"It looks like it's dead." He shrugged regretfully.

Only then did Xie Huai understand what he was talking about, and he frowned: "What do you mean? Even if that guy surnamed Qin is handsome, unrestrained and suave, it's impossible for me to get along with him."

Speaking of this, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he enumerated Qin Yiyan's various bad behaviors in the past half a month.There are a total of twelve, which cannot be counted with one hand.

The bartender was on the sidelines echoing, and after venting with his old friend, he felt that the trip was worthwhile, and walked comfortably to the karaoke stand, ready to start tonight's lead singer session.

"Master Xiao Huai is here, it's been a long time since you sang!" Everyone cheered in unison.

Xie Huai can sing, especially good at rap. His musical sense and rhythm are not inferior to professional singers. He was famous when he was hanging out in bars.

Amid the enthusiastic support of everyone, a song "20 Years Old Manifesto" sounded in the room.

This is last year's new rap finals champion song, and it is also Xie Huai's favorite song among the countless songs he has sung.

The rhythmic prelude sounded, and he held the microphone in one hand and began to sway with the music.

"I don't want to be pronounced dead at 20

I regard mourning as an expression of personality

Get together and run amok among people, walk like a hungry wolf

Two years later, I realized that I was the lamb to be slaughtered..."

His rap voice is hoarse than usual, and with the lyrics of his personality, it sounds like an indescribable wind and frost.

The light from the projector cast his handsome profile on the screen. The light of KTV is blurred, the slightly curly fluffy light gray hair and the golden single earring on the left ear embellish him with a bit of idol temperament, even the ordinary black and white baseball shirt on his body has the taste of a song suit.

"Shi threatened to win all the world's awards

At the age of 20, he fell into the water and drowned without oxygen

How can a life that allows others to sit in front of others be called a winner?

Since it is not worthy of the original ideal owner

Why not admit frankly that you are a loser! "

After shouting the last paragraph of Mai, he ended with a handsome snap of his fingers.

"Okay! It's a pity that our master Xiaohuai didn't make his debut." A group of people below booed.

Xie Huai smiled coldly, picked up the glass and took a sip of wine to moisten his throat, leaned on the sofa and read the last line of the lyrics in the freeze frame, thoughtfully.

He likes this song not because it is so popular, but because the song conveys a sense of belonging similar to his.

The same 20 years old, the same confusion and depravity, the same unwillingness to give in.

Putting down his glass, he took out another cigarette and lit it.

"Master Xiao Huai, how about some more songs?" The others were tired of singing and started to invite him again.

He shook his head: "I've been driving for three hours today, I'm a little tired."

The friends didn't insist on hearing the words. After a few hours, everyone's voice became hoarse, so they simply used the KTV as a stereo, drinking and chatting while listening to songs.

After drinking for three rounds, the ashtray was also full of cigarette butts.Xie Huai was choked by the smell of hot smoke billowing in the room, so he slipped out on the pretext of going to the bathroom.

Friends around him didn't know that he was actually not used to smoking, and Xie Huai never mentioned it to others.After all, a young gangster who is addicted to cigarettes and hates the smell of cigarettes sounds ridiculous.

Sometimes even he himself can't figure it out. He obviously hates the smell of cigarettes, but he still relies on chemically synthesized mint flavor and nicotine to help him sleep.

Hiding in the toilet and smoking a few cigarettes, he reminded himself that today was a bit too much, and washed his face with cold water.When they returned to the box, it was already in chaos, empty wine bottles were piled up on the ground, and several people were talking nonsense after drinking.

"Hey Xiao Huai, you haven't contacted Liang Zi since then?" Someone asked him suddenly.

Xie Huai was stunned when he heard the man's name, kicked open the empty bottle at the door, and said with a smile: "Old Xu, you have too much wine."

The noisy box instantly fell silent because of this conversation.He looked around and asked again, "How did you get here?"

"Adong and I drove the car." The bartender friend answered.

He nodded knowingly: "I will ask the driver to take you back."

"Where's Master Xiaohuai?"

"I'll find a hotel nearby to stay for one night. Don't worry, I don't drink much." After he finished speaking, he contacted the surrogate driving company, carried the drunk into the car with others, and watched them leave after confirming that they were correct.

After five or six hours of surfing, my stomach full of grievances and the fear of witnessing the accident scene disappeared.Xie Huai stood on the empty and fresh street at three o'clock in the morning, stretched comfortably, found a hotel for supper and took a bath, and finally had a good night's sleep.

When he woke up, it was already high in the sun.He ate a bowl of wontons at a nearby restaurant and drove back to school.

However, when he was stopped by security guards at the school gate, he realized a certain neglected problem—his return time was different from what was written on the approval.

The security guard looked left and right with his mobile phone, and finally stopped him outside the door: "Is your counselor Qin Yiyan?"

"He's not my counselor, he's just a student guide." Xie Huai hurriedly explained, wondering why he was entangled with Qin again before he stepped into the school.

The security guard shook his head: "Little classmate, the epidemic has not been completely lifted yet, so staying out at night is a very serious matter."

"I can do the nucleic acid test, I guarantee it will be fine." Xie Huai begged him pitifully, "Don't tell the counselor."

But don't tell the teacher who will come to see his nucleic acid test?Half an hour later, he was still sent to Qin Yiyan's office for lying about his whereabouts.

He had just returned from the lab and was appreciating Huai's homework when he saw him and asked without raising his head, "Where did you go after yesterday?"

"Meddle in your own business." Xie Huai regained his arrogance in front of him, "I'm not the only one in the whole school who stayed out overnight, and you're the only one who can be blamed for being a new official. I said I went out to whore last night and I want to call the police Catch me?"

"Shameless!" Qin Yiyan dropped the pen in his hand and cursed in a low voice, "How can there be people like you in our school?"

Originally, he wanted to give Xie Huai some more topics, but now he is completely out of mood.

Xie Huai didn't care how he commented on him, and felt very happy to have offended him, so he walked out without looking back.

"Wait." Qin Yiyan stopped him again, "I still have something to say."

After speaking, he handed over a form.Xie Huai glanced at it, it was the club application form for the new semester.

"What do you mean?"

"After the National Day is the club activity week. Although I know you don't like studying, I still hope you can join the club to experience the after-school life of the university and meet some useful friends." Qin Yiyan quickly regained his composure, and said earnestly in the attitude of a counselor, "Remember not to be greedy, choose a club you like the most and prepare well."

Xie Huai blinked, took the registration form hesitantly, and suddenly felt that he had finally said something human today.

Even if he is really dropped out of school in the future, the precious youth in his twenties can't just be the unpleasant memories of quarreling with Qin Yiyan.

The author says:

Note: "20 Years Old Manifesto" is inspired by "I Don't Want to Die at the Age of 20" by Suicide Immortal subs. The new lyrics are written by me independently. Due to space reasons, only one paragraph is quoted in the article. The whole song is placed on Weibo. Got it.
