Gentlemen's Friends

Chapter 11 Part 5: Four ([-])
Qu Tongqiu was single and weak, if he really wanted to do something, he would be slapped and flew away, so he could only say loudly: "Do you know who her brother is? Have you heard of Chu Mo from S University?"

When a blind cat meets a dead mouse, Chu Mo's notoriety spread far and wide, but those few people were really afraid. They looked at each other, intending to retreat, but they seemed unwilling.

The two sides stalemate for a while, and one of the men said with a smile: "Okay, let's sell Chu Mo to save face. But you have to sell us to save face. This glass of wine was specially bought to make friends. No one drinks it, but it's too much." It's not interesting enough."

Qu Tongqiu heard Chu Xian whisper behind her back: "I don't want to drink."

He can drink only one glass, and the wine looks malicious.If it was Zhuang Wei, he would have fought hard with them, and it would be good to fight for breath.But if they turned their backs and suffered a big loss, even if Chu Mo retaliated ten times later, the girls' family would not be able to make up for the loss they suffered, so what's the point of beating them to death.

Qu Tongqiu thought about it, but he decided to calm down, took the wine, held his breath and drank it down one gulp at a time.

As soon as he put down the cup, he began to feel dizzy, shaking, and his vision became weird. The temperature in the bar seemed to rise, which made him extremely dry and hot, and the sounds from the outside suddenly came and went.

After being dazed for a while, I heard my heart beating rapidly, suddenly my eyes went dark, and I fell headfirst.

Then the perception was swallowed by messy and twisted dreams.

Dreams and nightmares are intertwined and overwhelming, sometimes they are peaceful and sweet like heaven, sometimes they are painful and hard like hell, and then they are burned in a raging fire, and they are repeatedly tormented involuntarily, as if they are about to burst open.

When he finally woke up suddenly from the endless darkness that was resting like a rest after the chaos, when he opened his eyes, his field of vision was filled with white flowers.

The contrast made Qu Tongqiu stunned for a while before finally realizing that he was in the hospital.

"He's awake."

Hearing someone say that, Qu Tongqiu rolled his eyes and looked into the room, found Ren Ningyuan, and then saw Zhuang Wei and Chu Mo.

"Boss..."

As soon as I opened my mouth, I felt a sore throat and a hoarse voice.Qu Tongqiu didn't know what happened, his memory only went to the scene of drinking in the bar, and he didn't know what happened after that.

Feeling a vague pain in the body, strong discomfort, and being in the hospital again, he asked, "What's wrong with me?"

The expressions of the three were a little weird and awkward, and no one answered him for a while.

After being silent for a while, Chu Mo spoke first, coughed, and then said, "You guys encountered some trouble at the bar. Then I don't know. But Chu Xian is fine, she is fine now, she asked me to thank you on her behalf."

Qu Tongqiu was very relieved when he heard it, and finally he was able to explain to Ren Ningyuan, so he said happily: "It's good that she's fine." Looking back, thinking of the pain in his body, he asked again: "I was killed by someone in the bar. Did you hit it?"

Ren Ningyuan remained silent.

Zhuang Wei's face was very ugly, completely blue, and after a while, he said through his teeth: "It's not that I was beaten, you idiot!"

Qu Tongqiu stayed for a while, full of doubts, trying to think back and guess what happened. The pain on his body was indeed different from the pain from the usual beatings. It seemed that his hands and feet were not injured, but when he wanted to get up, he felt a heart-rending pain. Cracking lung pain...

After thinking for a while, looking at the expressions of the three people, Qu Tongqiu suddenly understood something.

Unbelievable at first.He never thought that such a thing would happen in the world, at least not to him.He felt that it could not be true at all.It's like asking him to believe that there are ghosts in this world.

Then there was chaos.I couldn't speak, I couldn't move my facial muscles, and I didn't know what I was thinking. I couldn't even hear them talking, so I could only sit blankly.

Fortunately he doesn't remember anything.

The three of them sat in the ward for a while, Ren Ningyuan made some juice for him to drink, replaced the hospital food with meals bought outside, left some magazines for him to read, and asked him what he wanted to eat Just for fun, I said I will send it to him later.

Everyone never mentioned it again, so as not to be embarrassed when confronted with it, and so as not to irritate him, they just pretended that nothing happened.

If something happened to Chu Xian, the whole bar would probably be overturned by Chu Mo and the others, and bloody storms would be inevitable.

But he was different, the matter passed vaguely in the deliberate avoidance and neglect.He himself was willing to have this kind of silence like an appointment.Anyway, he couldn't remember anything at all, as long as no one said it, it could be regarded as no one did it.

The three people who visited left together, and he still had to lie in the hospital.He didn't want to know the specific reason, and when the doctor said it, he quickly held his breath so as not to listen.

He is no more delicate girl than Chu Xian.He is a man with bad luck, and he often suffers from flesh and blood. If he is unlucky once, it will be much worse than the current level, and he may not be treated like this kind of patient.

At least the fresh fish soup that Ren Ningyuan brought him was delicious.

It's just that even the pants that Ren Ningyuan gave him are rotten, and it's very sad to think of this.

After reading the magazine for a while in the evening, he couldn't read any of the stories, so Qu Tongqiu turned off the lights and closed his eyes to sleep.I don't know how long I lay there, but I was still awake, without any sleepiness.Hearing a slight movement at the door, Qu Tongqiu opened his eyes a little, and looked at the faint light.

There was a familiar tall figure at the door, and Qu Tongqiu felt depressed. Seeing him now, he was also a little happy: "Boss."

Ren Ningyuan still walked in lightly, without turning on the light, just walked to his bedside and sat down in the dark, and said gently: "Did I wake you up?"

"No, I'm awake."

"Can't sleep?"

"Ah."

"Is it uncomfortable?"

Qu Tongqiu felt unable to answer such concerns, so he changed the subject: "Boss, don't you want to accompany Chu Xian?"

"She's fine, and Chu Mo is with her. How about you? Are you feeling better now?"

Ren Ningyuan's gentleness made him feel very grateful, and his heart felt soft and sour: "I'm fine. Boss, you have time, you should spend more time with your girlfriend."

"Huh?" Ren Ningyuan seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and then smiled, "You mean Chu Xian? She's not my girlfriend. She's my little sister."

Qu Tongqiu realized that he had mistaken the person, and felt a little embarrassed.

Ren Ningyuan went on to say: "She is very grateful to you. If it weren't for you and her temper, she would have suffered a lot."

It was a great joy to be praised by Ren Ningyuan, but he couldn't be happier after thinking about it.

The two sat facing each other for a while, and Ren Ningyuan suddenly said, "I have wronged you."

Qu Tongqiu held back for a whole day, but finally couldn't help it, and started to cry.

Ren Ningyuan patted him on the back.Qu Tongqiu only felt that his palm was very warm.

"Boss, will you look down on me?"

He's always been more of a wimp than a wimp.When something like this happens, even the dignity of a man is gone.

Ren Ningyuan said softly, "How could that be?"

Qu Tongqiu choked for a while, and asked with red eyes, "Boss, can you help me?"

"Huh? Just say it."

"who's that person?"

"..."

"Boss, you must be able to find out, right?" Qu Tongqiu sniffed his nose, but clenched his fists tightly, "I..."

Ren Ningyuan looked at him: "It's better not to know. Because you can't do anything to him. Instead of feeling unbearable, it's better not to know."

"but……"

Ren Ningyuan stretched out his fingers, and lightly stroked his hair as if to comfort him.

"Don't worry. I'll punish him for you."

After being discharged from the hospital, Qu Tongqiu didn't think about it anymore.

Ren Ningyuan promises a thousand gold, since he said that he will avenge him, it is worthy of his wholehearted belief.This unbearable shadow has been borne by Ren Ningyuan for him since then.He is very grateful.

Ren Ningyuan is very kind to him, this kindness is not a real benefit, but a little bit of sympathy and tenderness in the corners of his brows and eyes, and he occasionally holds a chopstick for him when eating together.

This is enough for Qu Tongqiu, Ren Ningyuan has magical power all over his body, as long as he caresses his wound, any pain will fly away.

After class, he went to Ren Ningyuan's apartment to clean, and then watched DVDs.Ren Ningyuan asked him to rent a lot of discs with the money, but he liked to watch them after renting them, and he didn’t eat much of the lo mei he bought; Qu Tongqiu watched them one by one before returning them, in order not to waste them. I am also very happy to eat my favorite braised duck wings while watching a feature film. It seems that in this way, all the uncomfortable things can be forgotten.

Ren Ningyuan was sitting on the sofa reading a magazine, and suddenly asked him: "Do you really want to have a girlfriend?"

Qu Tongqiu felt a little embarrassed, and said "Yes".

Ren Ningyuan was thoughtful: "What kind do you like?"

"Uh...gentle."

"Well, what else?"

"It makes sense."

"Ah."

"Mature..."

Ren Ningyuan smiled and said, "So you like older sisters. Do you want to have a beautiful girlfriend?"

Qu Tongqiu blushed immediately: "Well, as long as it's pleasing to the eye, it's fine. I think character is more important."

Ren Ningyuan let out a "huh", nodded, and stopped asking, and then continued to read his magazine.

At the end of the conversation, Qu Tongqiu also forgot about it. In fact, he was with Ren Ningyuan, so he couldn't think of looking for a girlfriend.

The next day, he was ordered by Ren Ningyuan to go to a restaurant.As soon as he entered, he saw Ren Ningyuan sitting facing the door, raised his eyes and saw him, and beckoned him to come over, and said gently, "I'll introduce you to a friend. This is Yang Miao."

Sitting opposite Ren Ningyuan was a woman with a very comfortable temperament.She looks a little older than them, not very beautiful, but her skin is very smooth, her face is not much bigger than a palm, and her curly hair is loosely tied behind her head, which is quite chic.There is a kind of femininity that is charming to the bone marrow.Smiling at Qu Tongqiu, it made him blush.

The woman was a little surprised when she saw Qu Tongqiu, who was blushing all over her face: "You're so handsome, so shy, I thought all your friends were precocious just like you."

Ren Ningyuan smiled: "Don't you like taking care of your little brother the most?"

Qu Tongqiu sat down nervously.The two introduced themselves to each other, and they probably knew each other. Only then did they realize that the other party was from his hometown, had already worked, and was several years older than him, but the gentle and sweet faces did not reveal the real age difference.

Knowing that this is the girlfriend Ren Ningyuan introduced to him, his heart was so nervous that it was about to pop out of his throat.He is not good at interacting with women, and he didn't know what topics to talk about at the beginning, for fear of being left alone.

Fortunately, Ren Ningyuan was on the sidelines to help, although he didn't talk much, but with a few quick dials, the conversation went on smoothly, and the meal was harmonious.

After the meal, Ren Ningyuan settled the bill, took his leave and left first.Qu Tongqiu was naturally entrusted with the important task of sending the women home, and Qu Tongqiu was careful to accompany Yang Miao into the taxi.

He already had a good impression of Yang Miao, although the two were in very different environments, they got along well.After chatting all the way, I think she is the type that makes him very comfortable and likes.I don't expect the other party to be able to take a fancy to me, but even being friends is good.

Sending Yang Miao back to her residence, when we parted ways downstairs, she said, "It seems like you guys are about to take your final exam? Will your homework be easy?"

"No, I've almost done my revision." Qu Tongqiu was usually very serious, so he didn't have to cram for the exam.

"Well then," she smiled, "do you have time to meet again tomorrow?"

Qu Tongqiu was so happy that his heart was pounding, and he nodded repeatedly blushing, which made her laugh too, and nodded his forehead: "Kids are just cute."

Qu Tongqiu got such good luck, watched her go upstairs, turned around and ran back, just wanting to tell Ren Ningyuan immediately.

Ren Ningyuan really has magical powers, just like the omnipotent Aladdin magic lamp, helping him realize all the wishes he made.

However, Ren Ningyuan hadn't returned to the apartment yet, and Qu Tongqiu waited excitedly outside the door for a long time, and he didn't come back in the middle of the night.

There was no phone to call, and thinking of the access control of the dormitory management, I had to go back to school first.

After that, Ren Ningyuan seemed to be busy, and it was rare for Qu Tongqiu to meet him when he was free. When he went to his apartment, most of them were rejected.

On Yang Miao's side, the relationship between the two gradually heated up.The feeling of sibling love is not bad, Yang Miao is a very attractive woman, and he likes his youthfulness, honesty, sincerity and diligence. Slowly, Qu Tongqiu spends his free time going to her house with books .

Only after getting familiar with it did I know that Yang Miao works in a nightclub.This surprised Qu Tongqiu for a while.However, when the woman smiled and said, "Working in a nightclub is not inferior to others", that calm and frankness made him relax again.

After all, it was Ren Ningyuan who introduced him to him, and he would trust Yang Miao because he believed in Ningyuan.What's more, a woman like Yang Miao will make him feel that this profession is far less contemptible than what he inherently imagined.

She is reasonable, understands life, has sentimentality, has a shrewd and agile side, and also has a naive and lovely side. It is already his luck to have such a girlfriend, and what does her career have to do with it.

Listening to Yang Miao telling him anecdotes in nightclubs, telling him how to be slick to avoid drinking and to persuade guests to drink more, so that guests open more expensive drinks, she even felt that she knew much more than him, a college student.There is nothing worthy or not worthy.

Although it hasn't been long, Qu Tongqiu has already begun to fall in love seriously.No matter how much Yang Miao's feelings for him are, first love always makes people's hearts feel like a deer, and the whole world becomes bright and beautiful.

He couldn't help but share this happy thing with Ren Ningyuan.Ren Ningyuan occasionally gets along with him when he has time, and he will patiently listen to him nagging about various interesting things about the two of them getting along, and then smile and say "just like it".

Qu Tongqiu sat on the cushion at his feet, raised his head to talk to him, and looked at his calm and handsome face. At this time, he would feel that he was the happiest person in the world.

Since dating Yang Miao, Qu Tongqiu started going to nightclubs late at night to wait for her to get off work, and then escorted her home.

In fact, Yang Miao is a veteran on the court, with a flexible body and a deep understanding of advancing and retreating. She is much more tactful and sophisticated than him. She always smiled and said that she didn't need him to make a rescue, let alone worry about him coming to this kind of place.But it is always dangerous for young women to walk alone at night, and he has the obligation to protect and take care of his girlfriend.

I have been there a few times, and he has become familiar with him. The security guards will let him in when they see him standing hard, and ask him to find a place to sit near the door and wait.

This night, Qu Tongqiu waited longer than usual, looked at his watch a few times, and stretched his neck for a long time before finally seeing the figure of a woman wearing a strapless wine red skirt with beautiful hair coiled up. went up to welcome.

"You get off work late today, are you okay?"

"It's okay, let's go back."

Qu Tongqiu agreed, and was about to put on the coat he brought with her when his shoulders tightened suddenly, and before he could react, he was pulled back vigorously, almost being thrown away.

Qu Tongqiu knocked down the table next to him, and then got up in a mess, looking so useless that the man who attacked him didn't even look at him.

After clearing the obstacles, the man smiled drunkenly at Yang Miao and said, "Miss Yang..."

The man was tall and strong, with a high nose and deep eyes. The face of a foreigner was more than a head taller than Qu Tongqiu's, and his arms were muscular.

Qu Tongqiu saw that he stretched out a pair of big hands to grab Yang Miao's slender shoulders, just like an eagle grabbing a chick, rushed up in a panic, squeezed into the middle of the two, and shouted: "What are you going to do?!"

Seeing him standing in front of Yang Miao, the man thought it was funny and made two hoots, stretched out his hand and slapped Qu Tongqiu like chasing flies: "Go away, mind your own business."

Qu Tongqiu was dizzy from being whipped, but he couldn't dodge it. He was hit again amidst Yang Miao's screams, and was slapped hard and squarely.

The onlookers were very nervous at first, thinking they would see a scene of a hero saving the beauty, but they didn't know that he was so useless, and the beatings were ridiculous, so they couldn't help bursting into laughter.

In two or three strokes, the man planned to deal with this overwhelmed kid.Qu Tongqiu was powerless to fight back, but he refused to let him take advantage of Yang Miao. The man couldn't get rid of him no matter what. He was very annoyed and slapped him twice, cursing: "Where did the clown come from? Looking for death?"

"He's my boyfriend."

The person who spoke was Yang Miao.Not only did the slender and delicate woman show no fear towards that ferocious strong man, she even put her arms around Qu Tongqiu's shoulders like a hen guarding its chicks, all of which made Qu Tongqiu extremely ashamed.
