Yan Ge looked at the time on the screen of the mobile phone, staring at the number showing the minutes and moving forward one more, pinched the cigarette in his hand, and calculated the time in his mind.

Ten past eight, still early.

On a midsummer night, it was unbearably hot, and in a corner full of feasting and feasting, a slender corridor led to a dimly lit underground bar. The store was small, and only three letters were written on the door plate: She.

The rest of the letters are placed very small, in the lower right corner, as if to be hidden with the palm-sized storefront.

Considering that he would definitely have to drink when he came to the bar tonight, Yan Ge chose to take a taxi to the East District instead of driving by himself.

I remembered that when I told the driver that I was going to "She", the driver seemed a little confused and confirmed the location with him. Yan Ge repeated it before putting on the seat belt.

"Are you going to the She Bar?" The driver was still not sure, and asked in a suspicious tone.

"Yeah." Yan Ge responded lightly, and didn't receive a response for a while, then came back to it, turned his head, and looked at the driver beside him in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"fine."

The driver waved his hand, let out a haha, and passed away. His hesitant and probing eyes still lingered on Yan Ge, and he looked him up and down calmly, before turning away for a while.

After driving in silence for a while, the driver looked at him in the rearview mirror and asked again, "Are you alone?"

"No." Yan Ge raised his head from the phone and answered briefly, "I have an appointment with a friend."

"Oh."

"..."

The car was stuck on the road for a while, and when it arrived at Tenth Street, it was exactly five past eight, Yan Ge scanned the QR code to pay, and was about to get out of the car, but was stopped by the driver.

"Child."

Yan Ge paused for a moment, looked around, and realized that the driver was calling him when he was alone nearby.

"You called me?" Yan Ge was slightly surprised.

"That bar is not a good place." The driver leaned over, put his arm on the passenger seat, stretched out his hand through the car window with some difficulty, pointed to the dark facade of the speakeasy, and looked up at Yan Ge, "Go and play carefully." a little."

"Oh..." Yan Ge answered blankly, but still smiled politely, "Thank you," after thinking about it, he added helplessly, "I'm 26."

"26?" The driver opened his eyes slightly, as if a little disbelieving, "I thought you were a college student."

Thinking of the absurd and funny conversation with the driver just now, Yan Ge laughed and looked down at his clothes.

When he came back from the audition, he was exhausted. He casually found a loose and comfortable dress to put on at home. After reading the script all day, he didn't think it was inappropriate.

When he was about to go out, Yan Ge changed into a hoodie, which made him look a little student-like.

But Ye Xingyan is not an outsider, so he doesn't need to dress up so beautifully when he goes out for a drink, which will only increase the burden.

Five minutes had passed since the appointed time, Ye Xingyan hadn't arrived yet, Yan Ge wasn't upset, he didn't go in first, he waited quietly outside, looked down at his phone, raised his eyes from time to time, and glanced at the passing traffic on Tenth Street.

If Jinqingshang is the busiest city square in the Eastern District during the day, then Tenth Street is unconsciously the commercial street with the richest nightlife in the Eastern District.

It's no wonder that the driver just stared at him suspiciously. Yan Ge has a gentle and handsome appearance, and with his plain and simple attire, he doesn't look like someone who would come to this kind of place to play.

Both sides of Tenth Street are full of sleepless storefronts, and the lights of the house numbers are projected onto the ground, bringing an imperceptible charming atmosphere.

"She is in the United States" is obviously the center of Tenth Street. Although the store is not the largest and the most exquisite, if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that almost all the entertainment venues around the "She" bar are centered on it. , quite a feeling of stars holding the moon.

In such a romantic place, opening a bar with a hidden facade, but choosing such a literary and artistic name is really out of place.

Not knowing what kind of person the owner of this store is, Yan Ge was a little curious.

He remembered that Ye Xingyan seemed to say that the owner of this bar is a great beauty.

When Ye Xingyan arrived, Yan Ge had already drank northwest wind for 10 minutes. Fortunately, this person did not come empty-handed, and brought Yan Ge a bottle of Hollandaise gin as an apology.

Fumbling down the façade with small lights on, the hard soles of the shoes stepped on the imitation wooden stairs, which creaked and felt a little shaky. Yan Ge frowned slightly, and subconsciously raised his hand to hold the handrail beside him.

After walking down the last step, Yan Ge tilted his head and looked around. He was a little surprised by the spacious and noisy inner room below.

This bar doesn't look big from the outside, but it's spacious inside. It's noisy and crowded just after nightfall, and the deafening music seems to hit the heart one after another, making Yan Ge feel a little uncomfortable.

Ye Xingyan found a place to sit down, it was a sofa near the corner.

"This bar has only been open for less than a month, and the popularity is so good." Ye Xingyan looked around, his eyes were bright, and he felt like he had found a treasure.

"Yeah." Yan Ge nodded in agreement, squinted slightly by the messy lights, and after a while, gave a very pertinent evaluation, "Business here is very good."

"I don't know if I can see the boss tonight." Ye Xingyan opened the wine he just brought and poured Yan Ge a glass.

"Who is the boss here?" Yan Ge asked after taking a sip.

He remembered that on the business card that Jin Siyan gave him, the phrase "Shewalksinbeatuy."

But just think about it.

The Ansheng Group has a big family and a big business, so it is impossible to open a bar in such a place.

"You'll know later." Ye Xingyan said mysteriously.

After drinking for a while, the bar's resident singer turned down the volume and sang with a microphone. Yan Ge felt a little bored, so he leaned on the sofa and played with his mobile phone.

A bottle of wine had run out, Ye Xingyan elbowed him and asked him how the wine tasted.

"I can't taste whether it's good or not," Yan Ge stretched lazily and got up from the sofa, "but it's quite diuretic." After speaking, he walked to the bathroom along the sign.

Like all bars, She's restroom is placed in the deepest part of the bar. Once you walk in, the noise and laughter outside will be weakened by most.

After using the toilet, Yan Ge stood in front of the mirror and washed his hands.

The faucet in the bar is designed ingeniously, it is in the shape of a snake winding down, and the clear water flows out from the place of the snake letter, which belongs to the kind of design that is "not more useful but more expensive".

After staring at it with interest for a while, Yan Ge leaned over and washed his face with water.

The environment here is really good, lively, but not turbid. The boss is also willing to install fresh air conditioners to ventilate the bar continuously. Although it is underground, the air is very fresh, even better than those on the road that are mixed with dust and car exhaust. The air is even clearer.

But after staying for a long time, Yan Ge was still a little dizzy.

Closing his eyes and wiping his face carelessly, Yan Ge heard rustling noises around him, and consciously moved aside to make room for others.

The noisy sound of the bar behind him suddenly became louder, as if there was a booing all of a sudden, Yan Ge guessed that the boss Ye Xingyan mentioned had come, wiped his face, and planned to go out to have a look.

The atmosphere outside was heated to the highest point for a while, and the continuous sound waves rose higher and higher, which made Yan Ge's curiosity reach its peak all of a sudden.

Going around the corner, Yan Ge saw the woman sitting at the bar holding a wine glass at a glance.

As Ye Xingyan said, she is really a great beauty.

Indeed, it is extremely easy to remind people of the breathtaking poem "She Travels in the United States".

"Like a cloudless night, a sky full of stars, all the beauty of light and dark, converging in her face and eyes."

Showy but not provocative, gorgeous but not vulgar, with a rare appearance, Yan Ge has only one thought in his mind:

She deserves all the admiration.

After watching quietly for a while, Yan Ge walked to his seat. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the bar owner slightly raising the cup in his hand, as if he was greeting someone.

Out of curiosity, Yan Ge turned his head and followed the woman's gaze.

On the opposite side, not far away, on another sofa, there were also three or two people who were chatting together.

Yan Ge really knew the person in the middle holding the cup slightly.

"Fuck, isn't that Jin Siyan?"

The arm was pulled violently, and there was a bluffing sound in the ear.Apparently, Ye Xingyan also saw the person over there, and yelled at him in disbelief.

Yan Ge had a headache.

"Yes."

Pursing his lips, Yan Ge calmly pushed his arm away from his own, quickly glanced at the person not far away, hastily withdrew his gaze, and was about to sit down, when he heard the other side speak first .

"Yange!"

The movement stopped in mid-air, Yan Ge raised his eyes and saw Ye Xingyan looking at him probingly, obviously a little dazed.

Wei Wei nodded over there, as a greeting, Yan Ge wanted to let it go, but Jin Siyan didn't seem to want to stop, but turned his head to look at him, and waved to him gently, "Come here."

Yan Ge remembered that day in the car, Jin Siyan picked up his wallet, and he wanted to reach out to pick it up, but the man took the wallet away, looked at him, and said, "Come up."

That moment is exactly like this moment.

Taking a deep breath, he glanced at the man sitting next to Jin Siyan who was sizing him up, Yan Ge tsk in his heart, still leaned over, picked up his wine glass, and walked over.

"Hello." Ye Xingyan grabbed him and leaned closer to his ear, "Didn't you say it has nothing to do with him?"

"It's okay." Yan Ge flatly denied it.

"Then why did he ask you out for a drink? It's like you're very familiar."

"How do I know?" Yan Ge shrugged slightly, turned around and walked towards Jin Siyan.

Passing through the center of the bar, Yan Ge passed the loudest and crowded crowd, lowered his head slightly, and tried to avoid making eye contact with others, but inevitably, he found that something seemed wrong around him.

Although the reveling crowd was chaotic, they were still clearly distinguished. There were almost two or three people around each table, but most of them were men and women, and it was rare to see men and women sitting at the same table.

On the left, Zhi Yi, a sexy woman, was sitting on the table, raising her hand while listening to the speech of the OL in front of her, curling and playing with the wavy long hair of the woman opposite, her eyes fell on the woman's lips.

On the right, in front of the game console at the door, stood a young man in his 20s, staring intently at the screen in front of him. A man wearing glasses stared at him for a while, picked up his glass, and walked towards him.

Yan Ge slowed down.

Just now I was only drinking and playing with my mobile phone, and I didn't look carefully at all. Now it seems that

this bar,

It's like Rainbow Bar.
