Back to when the Great Demon King was a child

Ever since he received the sneakers from Jin Chu, Qiao Jianuo has been in a state of absent-mindedness. He was not in the mood to study by himself at night, but after thinking about it now, he did not reject Wu Yi's proposal.

The bar that Wu Yi and the literary and art committee decided was on the other side of the square. Although there is a certain distance from Yingshi Middle School to the bar, Yingshi is a small county with a small overall area. fee and ten minutes by car.

Not long after the evening self-study, a group of them sneaked out of the classroom.

When I came to the bar, it was just after eight o'clock in the evening, which was the best time of the day for the bar's business.

Except for Qiao Jianuo and art committee member Liu Jia, everyone else came to a place like a bar for the first time. Everyone had novelty and apprehension written on their faces. Wu Yi, who was in front of Qiao Jianuo, almost fell to the ground twice, but fortunately, Qiao Jianuo quickly held his arm.

Qiao Jianuo felt Wu Yi's hands shaking, and asked amusedly, "Are you so nervous?"

Wu Yi withdrew his hand, and scratched his hair with a rather annoyed expression: "This is the first time I've come to a bar, if my parents know about it, they will definitely beat me to death."

Qiao Jianuo said: "Then you and Liu Jia come here to book a seat."

"Isn't it impossible to refuse..." Wu Yi saw Qiao Jianuo's calm appearance, and wanted to ask Qiao Jianuo if he had been to this kind of place before, but he caught a glimpse of the sneakers on Qiao Jianuo's feet , suddenly seemed to have discovered a new world, "Jianuo, have you bought new shoes?"

Hearing this, Giorgano's face felt awkward for a moment, he subconsciously hid back, and after reacting, he hummed as if nothing had happened.

"It was given by someone else."

There is great curiosity in Wu Yi's small eyes: "Who is it?"

Giorgio choked.

Wu Yi asked again: "Is it a birthday present?"

Everyone didn't notice Qiao Jianuo's sneakers before, but after Wu Yi's reminder, they all turned their heads to look at them, and at the same time they were surprised, who said something: "I saw this pair of shoes on the Internet! It seems to be more than 1000, Giorgio, you are too rich!"

As soon as these words came out, not only the people around, but even Giorgio was stunned.

He knew that these sneakers were not cheap, but he didn't expect their price to be in four figures. Even Qiao Dong and Chen Yue would not buy clothes or shoes with more than four figures these days.

Giorgano suddenly regretted wearing the sneakers. He smiled and said, "I didn't buy it myself, it was a gift from a friend."

Someone chased after him and asked, "Which friend are you? He's so rich."

Naturally, these people knew about Jin Chu and the relationship between Qiao Jianuo and Jin Chu.

However, in the face of everyone's curious faces, Qiao Jianuo couldn't say Jin Chu's name. He remembered what Jin Chu said in the last phone call, and his face gradually became ugly. He opened his mouth and said: "A good one. friend."

The person who asked the question just now wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lian Jinhua who squeezed in.

"Do you want some snacks and drinks? The boss told us to give us a [-]% discount." Lian Jinhua squeezed in front of Qiao Jianuo as he spoke, blocking everyone's gaze from looking at Qiao Jianuo, "The menu is on the bar counter , you have to go to the bar to order."

After finishing speaking, everyone's attention was diverted from Giorgano, and they all rushed towards the bar.

Seeing this, Qiao Jianuo breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to Lian Jinhua: "Thank you."

Lian Jinhua cut his short hair at some point, revealing his thin cheeks and ears. After losing weight, his facial features became more and more clear and three-dimensional. Under the colorful light in the bar, he raised his head slightly, looking at In Giorgano's sight, he was as quiet as a puppy.

Qiao Jianuo was embarrassed by Lian Jinhua's focused gaze, and couldn't help touching his face: "Why are you looking at me like this?"

Lian Jinhua seemed to be sighing: "You have been out of shape."

Giorgio did not deny it: "It will be fine after a while."

Lian Jinhua nodded, as if he wanted to comfort Qiao Jianuo, but he didn't know how to comfort him. He blushed for a while, and finally changed the subject bitterly: "I heard that Aunt Teng Jing broke up with her fiancé."

Qiao Jianuo was stunned when he heard this. Since their family had moved out of the courtyard, many news were not as well-informed as before. Coupled with the accident that happened at the beginning of the year and Jin Chu's departure, Qiao Jianuo almost closed himself up. No news about Teng Jing and Qiu Qing has been heard.

"When did this happen?"

"A month or two ago, it's been a long time." Lian Jinhua recalled, "You also know what kind of character Aunt Teng Jing is. You can only share joys and sorrows, not to mention that her fiancé's reputation has fallen to the bottom. , she had already moved into her fiancé's house, and moved back to the courtyard a month or two ago."

"So how is she doing now?"

Lian Jinhua was silent for a moment, then shrugged: "Very bad, I heard that she has no job or savings, and Grandma Bai didn't support her anymore, she can only find some men to cheat money, but her fiancé's obsession with her Very deep, often running from the hospital to the courtyard to look for her, and when she saw her with other men, he would attack her."

Giorgio was surprised for a moment: "Do it?"

Lian Jinhua nodded, but didn't say much.

Hearing this, Giorgio sighed a little.

I don't know if this is the result Jin Chu wanted, and I don't know if Jin Chu expected Teng Jing to end like this when he induced Wei Jie to do those things, and I don't know how far Jin Chu wants to get revenge... …

Giorgio took a deep breath, as long as he thought about everything related to Jin Chu, the suffocation would creep up to his throat like a shadow, making him breathless.

Lian Jinhua quickly noticed Qiao Jianuo's strangeness, and was so frightened that he quickly helped Qiao Jianuo's arm: "Are you okay?"

Giorgio shook his head: "It's okay."

A total of six people came to the bar tonight. Except for Wu Yi and Lian Jinhua, who are good friends with Qiao Jianuo, the remaining two people were called by the art committee members. They are all class committee members, and they also persuaded Qiao Jianuo to perform on stage. The second main force.

After playing around for a while, the bar staff who had communicated with the literary and art committee in advance came over with a birthday cake, and everyone applauded and sang the birthday song cheerfully.

Driven by this atmosphere, the haze that hovered in Giorgano's heart just now was finally dispelled a lot. He was pushed by the literary and art committee to the birthday cake, made a wish, blew out the candles, and then began to cut the cake for everyone.

There are no boxes in the bar, only semi-open seats. Although it is not as quiet as ordinary boxes, it is already one of the quietest places in this noisy bar. The art committee and Wu Yi bought eight birthday cakes. Inch, divided into six just right.

Just when Giorgano put the last piece of cake on the plate, Leng Buding felt the air around him stagnate, and the next second it quieted down very quickly.

Giorgio didn't know what happened, and looked up at the others suspiciously.

They all looked behind him with embarrassing expressions.

Qiao Jia Nor paused, then turned her head and looked back in a daze.

There is a man standing behind him.

That person had a familiar face, with a casual smile on his lips.

Tan Feiran...

The smile on Qiao Jianuo's face froze instantly, he looked at Tan Feiran and didn't recover for a while.

The light in the lounge was much brighter than that in the bar hall, a warm yellow light fell straight from the ceiling, stretching Tan Feiran's figure very long.

Tan Feiran's skin was illuminated flawlessly, his eyelids were half closed, and his casual and lazy eyes fixedly looked at Qiao Jianuo who was surrounded by the crowd. He was wearing a beige thin shirt, Underneath is a pair of loose black trousers, and the shoes on the feet are exactly the same as Giorgano's.

Giorgio's gaze fell on the pair of sneakers involuntarily.

He froze for five seconds.

It was only later that I reacted with hindsight——

The sneakers on his feet were not given to him by Jin Chu, but by Tan Feiran...

But since it was given to him by Tan Feiran, why did "Emperor Capital" and "C" be written on the courier box?

At this moment, Giorgio suddenly felt that wearing the sneakers on his feet was so disgusting, like stepping on the ground full of needles, he wished he could take off the sneakers on the spot and throw them on Tan Feiran.

Tan Feiran didn't seem to see the resistance in Giorgio's eyes, he smiled lightly and took two steps in, his gaze swept across the cake in Giorgio's hand: "Did I come just in time?"

There was silence in the lounge.

No one spoke up.

Due to the fact that Class 8, Grade 6 and Class [-], Grade [-] are more or less competitive in the performance of the May [-]th Youth Festival, the class committee members of Qiao Jianuo’s class all regard Tan Feiran, who is determined to perform on stage, as the number one enemy. At the time, he didn't directly lower his face, but there was still obvious defense and vigilance in the eyes looking at Tan Feiran.

In the end, Wu Yi couldn't bear the embarrassment, scratched his head, and said naively: "Senior, why are you here? Aren't you going to study by yourself at night?"

"I should be the one to ask you this question." Tan Feiran never took his eyes off Qiao Jianuo's pale face, and he said with a smile, "Our third year of high school has canceled evening self-study. , but you are still studying in the evening in the first year of high school, right? I don’t know if you came to the bar to skip the evening self-study or you have already asked your class teacher for leave.”

After finishing speaking, everyone's faces turned pale.

They are not fools, how could they fail to hear that there was something in Tan Feiran's words?

Now even the art committee member who has always been hostile to Tan Feiran couldn't sit still, she hurriedly raised a slightly ingratiating smile, and said coquettishly: "Senior, can you stop talking about our skipping class?" Are you going out? Tonight is the birthday of our classmate, so we sneaked out to celebrate, after eating the cake, we will go back. "

After finishing speaking, the literary and art committee hurriedly handed her piece of cake together with the fork to Tan Feiran.

"Senior, do you want to eat cake?"

Tan Feiran did not refuse, and took the cake generously. Facing the expectant eyes of the literary and art committee and others, he didn't even give them a little out of the corner of his eye, but turned his head and smiled at the silent Qiao Jianuo He smiled: "For the sake of the birthday star, I will definitely keep my mouth shut."

The art committee member breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you senior."

Seeing this, the others thanked Tan Feiran one after another.

With Tan Feiran joining, the relaxed and harmonious atmosphere suddenly became tense and quiet. Originally, the art committee and others planned to play in the bar for a while, but now they pack up and go back to school after eating the cake.

I thought that Tan Feiran would say goodbye to them, but after they walked out of the bar gate, they turned around and found Tan Feiran following them calmly.

Wu Yi asked: "Senior, are you leaving too?"

Tan Feiran asked calmly, "What about you?"

Wu Yi replied honestly: "We have to go back to school for evening self-study."

"Then I'll go back to school too." Tan Feiran raised his eyelids, looked at Qiao Jianuo's thin figure standing by the road in front of him, "Go back and get something."
