Wonderful Rebirth

Chapter 70 I'm Sorry For Him
"Give me a pack of cigarettes! Thank you!"

At a convenience store on the street at midnight, Dalbergia, wearing maroon cropped jeans and a large plaid shirt on his upper body, knocked on the window sill marble of the convenience store and said to the old man who raised his head when he heard the sound.

While talking, he took out 10 yuan from his trouser pocket and put it on the window sill.

This is a small convenience store that exists alone on the side of the street. The little old man glanced at Huang Tan and asked casually, "Or White Oak?"

While asking, the little old man had already taken out a pack of white oak and put it on the window sill.

"Ah."

Huang Tan put down the money, picked up the cigarette and nodded to the little old man, then turned and left, unpacking the cigarettes while walking, this is the Yuanji District of Hengdian, and Huang Tan's family lives near this convenience store.

Everyone is unique, with their own stories and their own inner world. Dalbergia is unattractive, with a pair of protruding fish eyes and a body shape that grows horizontally. He is always ignored by people in the crowd. The one girls favor, especially when walking with Tan Fei and Yang Qi, girls' eyes will always linger on Tan Fei or Yang Qi.

Tan Fei is handsome and cheap, Yang Qi is handsome and melancholy, all girls like him. Apart from these two points, Zhai Chaowei is more popular with girls than Huang Tan, because Zhai Chaowei stands out from the crowd and is tall. He can talk and talk with a single mouth, and he can flatter girls with a calm face. He always has the ability to make girls laugh.

Huang Tan is also young, about the same age as Yang Qi and the others. He also has a heart for beauty and a longing for love, but he is very clear that girls are not liked by his own conditions. Every time he sees a beautiful and attractive girl, it is not Flowers have their own masters, they just like Tan Fei or Yang Qi, or they just look down on them.

Amorous feelings are always blown away by the rain and wind. This is the portrayal of Huang Tan's mood over the years. Gradually, he got used to it, gradually let go of his fantasies about love, and began to care about other things, such as the friendship between him and Yang Qi, such as The music they've been making.

Although walking with Yang Qi and the others, his limelight will always be snatched by Yang Qi and Tan Fei, but Huang Tan can't let go of the friendship between them. There were several other people, not to mention that he also knew that girls didn't like him, not because of Yang Qi and the others, but because of his own appearance and personality that didn't please girls.

Huang Tan saw it very clearly, even if those girls didn't like Yang Qi and Tan Fei, or Zhai Chaowei, they wouldn't like him, it didn't have much to do with whether he went with Yang Qi or the others.

On the cold and empty street, a sudden breeze blew up a few scraps of paper on the ground. The scraps of paper rolled, swirled and fluttered down. Dalbergia lit a cigarette and took a puff. On the side, squinting to avoid the smoke coming out of the nasal cavity, with one hand in his trouser pocket, he walked forward.

Tomorrow he will be on the stage of the new program "Millions of New Voices" on the Hengdian Satellite TV Entertainment Channel. Huang Tan also couldn't sleep at home, and was bored in the room. Just as he ran out of cigarettes, he went downstairs to buy Smoke, by the way.

In front of the empty street at night, some blurred figures could gradually be seen, and there were faint voices of talking and laughing along with the night wind to Huang Tan's ears. A smile appeared on the corner of Huang Tan's mouth, and he subconsciously quickened his pace.

Different from the cold street he walked before, the section in front is the famous nightclub street in Yuanji District of Hengdian. It is brightly lit, full of people, people come and go, luxury cars, handsome men, beauties, and wealthy businessmen can be seen everywhere. From here Only then can you feel the difference between some Hengdian stores and ordinary small cities.

If someone who is familiar with the entertainment industry observes carefully here, it won't take long to find a few figures who are suspected of being a certain star with hidden heads and tails.

Huang Tan didn't come here to see celebrities, nor to see beautiful women. From a distance, his eyes fell on a snack cart on the street and the thin and thin figure beside the cart.

"Give me two skewers of fish balls, two skewers of beef balls, and three pieces of dried tofu! Give me some vermicelli and duck blood! Oh, that's right! Add two skewers of duck intestines!"

"Okay, beauty! Wait a minute!" This is Chen's depressed voice. Behind the snack cart, he is lowering his head and preparing stew according to the request of the fashionable beauty in front of the snack cart.

Huang Tan walked closer and stopped, not affecting Chen Ku's business in the past, took out the cigarette case and poured out another cigarette to light, squinting through the smoke to watch Chen Ku busy there.

"how much is it?"

"6 block 5!"

When the stew was ready, the beauty took out a ten-yuan bill from her exquisite wallet, and handed it to Chen Ku with two light-white delicate fingers. Four coins were handed to the beauty.

However, under the light of the street lamp, the eyes of the beautiful woman who had just received the four coins in her hand showed suspicion. She raised her hand and took a closer look at the four coins in her hand under her eyelids, as if she saw something terrible. The electric shock usually threw the four coins on the street.

"Oh! It's so dirty! It's oily, what do you want for this money? No! Don't touch it! I'll take some for myself!"

As he spoke, Chen Ku couldn't help explaining. He stretched out two fingers and searched out four clean coins of the same color from Chen Ku's money box and put them into his Kun bag. Chen Ku blushed with embarrassment. He watched helplessly, hesitant to speak, and just watched the beauty take four dollars from his money box, and then walked away quickly with her waist twisted and her hips swaying.

Huang Tan saw all this, the corners of his mouth moved down, but he didn't go forward.

After the beauty was far away, Chen Ku with a sad face came out from behind the snack cart, bent down to find and pick up the four coins one by one from the street.

Wiping the oil stains on the coins with the apron on his body and standing up, Chen Ku looked up and finally saw Dalbergia smoking under the big tree on the street.

He showed his teeth in a smile, but it was still a shy smile.

"A Tan? You're here! What are you doing standing there? Come here!"

Chen Ku greeted Huang Tan, and walked back to the back of the snack cart unhurriedly, as if he didn't take what happened just now to his heart.

But Huang Tan knew that it wasn't that Chen Ku was so lenient. Growing up together, Huang Tan knew how sensitive Chen Ku was. Chen Ku didn't feel sad because of what happened just now, but he had experienced too much in these years.

Huang Tan didn't step up to stand up for Chen Ku just now, not because he was indifferent, but because he had seen too much of this kind of thing from Chen Ku, and couldn't care less about it.

These days, the richer and more fashionable beauties are, on the contrary, the more likely they are particularly stingy and hypocritical.

Huang Tan walked to Chen Ku's side, and when he exhaled a puff of smoke, he asked in a chatty tone, "Brother Qi still didn't forgive you?"

Just one sentence made the smile on Chen Ku's face disappear. Chen Ku put the coin back into the money box with dejected eyes, shook his head slightly, and said, "I don't blame Brother Qi! Two drunk ruffians robbed me that night. Money, he wanted to smash my stall. Brother Qi helped me out and was attacked and beaten to the ground, bleeding all over the floor. Not only did I not dare to save him, but I even ran away in fright. I even forgot to call the police. Brother Qi must have felt that I’m not enough brother, Ah Tan! I really don’t blame Brother Qi this time! I’m the one who’s sorry for him!”
