[R18] So and so – “Someone” 16. Drunk [English]

Outside the market, there is a tangle of lights and people passing by. The horns of small electric donkeys and private cars echo each other at the corner of the alley, and are instantly submerged in the fireworks of the world.

This barbecue restaurant has a name that’s not barbecue at all, it’s called “Nian”, which exudes a sour and spicy atmosphere.It’s a pity that the guests inside and outside the hall seemed to have just arrived from Liangshan. They were noisy, drinking, and laughing so much that they could be heard from the other side of the street.

Zhao Xi called “he” in the midst of the hustle and bustle——

“Oh, yes, I forgot about it. Okay, let me let you go this time. You will know. Well, does it hurt your mouth to say two more words?”

“Huh?”

Not sure what Jiang Tian said on the other end, Zhao Xi suddenly asked a question and turned to glance at the table.His eyes swept so quickly that Sheng Wang wasn’t sure whether he was looking at himself or the people at the table.

“Okay, I understand.” Zhao Xi nodded and said without further discussion: “That’s it, hang up now. I still have a group of guests waiting to be fed. I’m very busy.”

When the fake boss put away his phone and turned around, he saw everyone on the table staring at him eagerly, as if waiting for a result.

He immediately became happy, holding a cigarette and waving his hands and said: “Hey, don’t wait. He is really busy, and he really can’t come.”

“Ah…” several people chanted in a disappointed tone, and a bold girl joined in the fun, and the disappointment was palpable.

Sheng Wang plucked the peanut shells in front of him.

Perhaps affected by other people’s emotions, at that moment, he actually felt a little disappointed.It wasn’t to the point of being disappointed, but I suddenly felt that the table of ten or so people was not as lively as he imagined.

There was a sudden “clang” sound in front of him, and Sheng Wang suddenly came back to his senses. When he looked up, he saw Zhao Xi putting a glass of water in front of him.

“I heard that you are sick?” Zhao Xi said, “What cold beer should you drink when you are sick? Just give me water.”

Sheng Wang was stunned: “Who said that?”

Zhao Xi shook the cigarette ashes and said, “What do you think?”

Sheng Wang thought of the phone call he just made: “Jiang Tian?”

Zhao Xi let out an “arrogant” sound.

Sheng Wang remained silent for a moment, unable to tell whether it was an accident or something else.

It is said that Jiang Tian specially told Zhao Xi not to let him drink… That is definitely impossible. It is probably just a casual mention, and Boss Zhao is naturally enthusiastic and knows how to behave.

Sheng Wang thought for a while and said to Zhao Xi sincerely: “I and he are really not that familiar. That meal was just…forget it, we are really not familiar with him anyway. As for the cold beer, he doesn’t care what I drink when no one is here?”

Do you care?

After Sheng Wang finished speaking, he silently hugged the beer glass in front of him, as if he was not drunk and no one would stop him.

Zhao Xi couldn’t laugh or cry.He put the cigarette back between his lips, squinted his eyes and said vaguely: “Okay, you little brats won’t learn a lesson unless you suffer a little bit. Just don’t hold me responsible if you get sick again and get worse.”

Boss Zhao patted his butt and walked away, smiling to greet other friends.After Sheng Wang saw him off, he turned around and found that a table of classmates looked at him with curious expressions.

“Do I have a menu on my face?” Sheng Wang asked.

“No, no.” Everyone burst into laughter. Gao Tianyang quickly waved his hand and called the waiter to order the dishes.

The meat skewers are delivered to the table one by one, with the aroma of being freshly grilled and sizzling with oil.

People’s appetite is so magical. Normally, you can be full with only ten skewers, but now there are so many people grabbing it that you can’t even hold back twenty or thirty skewers.The more the skewers were cooked, the more fragrant they became, the more wine they drank, and their voices became louder and louder. People at the table were laughing so hard that they slapped their legs on the table and clinked their glasses.

Sheng Wang heard a lot of gossip from them, both teachers and students.

For example, our class teacher He Jin is married to a male teacher who specializes in tutoring math competitions. They were both former students of the attached middle school. They were in the same class and at the same desk. They were a famous class couple at the time.They went to college in the same city, and after graduation they both returned to their alma mater, and now they are both famous teachers in the city.

For example, the boy sitting to the right of Sheng Wang is the life committee member of the class. He wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses and has a gentle temper. In addition to playing skewers, he also joins in having fun with everyone, which is completely opposite to his father’s personality.

He’s father’s surname is Xu, and he is the director of the Political and Education Department, also known as Xu Dazui. For the sake of his father, his classmates in Class A called him “Xiaozui.”

Gao Tianyang took advantage of the wine and pulled him to pretend to cry, and asked: “Xiao Zuier, the phone I used to have is still locked in your dad’s cabinet. Do you dare to help me pry it?”

Xu Xiaozui swallowed the meat gracefully, took out a tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth and said, “I don’t dare, I still have mine locked inside.”

Gao Tianyang said: “Look at your potential!”

Xu Xiaozui said: “To each other.”

Everyone laughed.

Another example is that there are two girls in Class 7 who are known for their fierceness. Whenever they have free time or an excuse, they go to Class A. Sometimes they even bring a group of friends to form a group just to see Jiang Tian.

The trustees brought small notes, snacks, and various holiday gifts. However, Jiang Tian was either in the office or catching up on his sleep. The small notes did not work, and the snacks and gifts were returned as ordered. Even after a year of persistence, he has not been able to melt the ice sculpture.

Sheng Wang was holding a beer glass and drinking while listening. Gao Tianyang, the big speaker, suddenly raised his voice and said narrowly: “I met the sports committee of Class 7 on the school bus yesterday. He said that one of the two girls has been having a tendency to have a romantic relationship recently, saying that he has fallen in love with the new handsome guy in our class. What do you think?”

Sheng Wang drank the last sip of wine in the cup, held the handle and thought for a moment: “Has someone transferred from our class again?”

Gao Tianyang: “…”

He glanced at the empty beer bucket on the edge of the table and asked Xiaozui: “How many glasses has he had?”

Xiaozui gestured with four fingers.

Gao Tianyang gasped and tried to take away Sheng Wang’s beer glass: “You are sick, brother!”

Sheng Wang said angrily: “I know, I don’t plan to drink the fifth cup.”

He speaks clearly and his face is not red. There is almost no change except that his eyes are darker and his nasal voice is heavier.Gao Tianyang was a little unsure for a moment.

“You guys go on, I’m going to the bathroom.” He said hello, got up and walked into the hall.

Gao Tianyang specially observed he’s footsteps and didn’t see any big problem. He couldn’t help but ask other he: “Is he drunk or not?”

Li Yu said seriously: “He is quite normal, but he talks less. To be honest, you look drunker than he.”

Gao Tianyang retracted his head angrily.

Everyone was a little tired after eating, and the three girls were the first to put down their tickets.They leaned back in their chairs, still listening to the bragging of the remaining people, but their eyes followed Shengwang.

In fact, the appearance of this transfer student is not inferior to that of Jiang Tian, ​​but his type is completely different.He has clear and clean eyebrows, dark eyelashes and pupils, and is set off by cold white skin, giving him a rich and colorful look.When you smile, the spring breeze blows on your face, but when you don’t smile, you feel like you don’t want to approach strangers.

One of the girls blushed and kissed Li Yu, and the three of them talked quietly.

Until Qi Jiahao called them: “I heard that we have to choose the city’s top three again, right?”

Li Yu interrupted and raised his head: “Are you so well-informed? We only informed you during the meeting yesterday.”

“How many places are there in our class this time?” Qi Jiahao asked again.

“Three.”

“What choice?”

The honor of being one of the city’s three best students is still useful at critical moments. It can enrich high school resumes and increase competitiveness when applying for early admissions in colleges and universities. However, the effect can be big or small, and it is not as good as competition results, so some people care about it, and some just let it happen.

Qi Jiahao is obviously the one who cares.

Li Yu said: “The school’s proposal is to recommend one quota based on performance, one recommendation from class cadres, and a secret ballot to see what the public wants.”

Qi Jiahao said with a smile: “According to grades and class committee list? Then I have no chance.”

“No, there is still a voting quota.” Others said in relief.

Qi Jiahao immediately laughed and said jokingly: “Okay! That’s it. I’ll pay for today’s meal. When the time comes, I’ll vote to help. I don’t want to win, I just want to not die too ugly.”

He raised his hand to call the waiter, fiddled with his phone to bring up Alipay and said: “I just ordered another batch of dishes. Please bring them as soon as possible.”

The waiter checked with the ordering tablet: “Table No. 2, right? The newly added dishes have been included, and they should be on the grill now.”

“It’s fast enough.” Qi Jiahao waved his hand again and said coolly, “Then help me settle the bill. I’ll pay the money first.”

Unexpectedly, the waiter said: “This table has already been settled.”

Qi Jiahao: “Huh? Who did it?”

While talking, Sheng Wang came over.He took out a tissue to wipe his hands and sat down next to Gao Tianyang.

The waiter pointed at him and said, “Here, he just finished his meal.”

I…fuck.

Qi Jiahao was stunned on the spot, and his expression changed several times.However, everyone’s reaction was a bit slow under the influence of food. They were in a daze after the meal, and no one paid attention to him.

With the newly ordered skewers, everyone at the table downed another glass of beer. The effect of the alcohol finally wore off, leaving several people with flushed faces and wet soles of their feet.

With 5 minutes left before 10 o’clock, this group of libertines finally decided to disband and go back to their respective homes.

Gao Tianyang drank until his neck was red. He held on to the table and said, “I have to go to the bathroom. The car will be bumpy for a while. I’m afraid I won’t be able to reach the door.”

A boy next to him smirked and blew a long whistle, but Gao Tianyang silenced him: “Keep blowing, and you can wash your pants for me.”

He took us one by one and prepared to go to the toilet as a group. We asked Sheng Wang if he wanted to come together, but he declined politely.

“I’ll sit here for a while.” Sheng Wang rubbed his temples and fell into thought.

He worked hard all night, and finally everything that was supposed to come came – his nasal voice was frighteningly heavy, his head was stuffed with cotton wool, and the soles of his feet were still a little floating.The cold seems to be getting worse.

What am I picturing?

He closed his eyes and rested his mind while rubbing it, and even felt a little drowsy under the influence of the alcohol.

Suddenly, he felt the arm he was supporting being brushed by cloth, and someone stood next to him.

Before Sheng Wang could react, he heard the voice of the fake boss Zhao Xi coming from far away: “Hey? Why are you here? Didn’t you say it won’t be until at least 10:30?”

Sheng Wang frowned for a moment to digest, then turned his head and opened his eyes.

Because the man stood too close, he could only see the familiar school uniform of the attached high school.His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows.

Sheng Wang stared at the man’s fingers hanging by his side for a long time, and finally raised his head…

It’s Jiang Tian who’s here.

Looking up from the sitting angle, you can see his clearly defined chin and the protruding Adam’s apple of his youth.

Sheng Wang suddenly reached out and touched his neck.

Jiang Tian lowered his eyes and looked at him for a while, then asked Zhao Xi: “Did you give him wine? How much did he drink?”

“I gave him water!” Zhao Xi said angrily, “If he doesn’t drink, how can I still force him to drink? He must have drank a lot of wine. I looked at the several empty buckets on our table, and I guess each of them drank no less than 4 glasses.”

Sheng Wang withdrew his hand from touching his neck, glanced at Zhao Xi and said, “Wrong, 5 cups for each person.”

Jiang Tian: “…”

Zhao Xi shrugged, pointed his thumb at the back of Sheng Wang’s head, and mouthed: I think he is a little drunk, what do you think?

Do you think this is necessary?

Jiang Tian wiped his forehead.He hooked his thumb on the strap on his shoulder, lifted his schoolbag up, and said to Sheng Wang, “We’re back, can you stand up?”

“Do you really think I drank too much?” Sheng Wang replied angrily and stood up properly.He looked around and asked clearly: “Gao Yangtian, where are you? Did you fall into the toilet?”

Zhao Xi raised his eyebrows and said, “Oh, that’s okay. I take back what I just said, you shouldn’t be drunk.”

Jiang Tian looked numb: “The one who went to the toilet is named Gao Tianyang.”

Zhao Xi: “…”

Jiang Tian was very straightforward in his work. He turned on the screen of his mobile phone, called up WeChat and quickly sent a message, and then said to Sheng Wang: “I told Gao Tianyang that I can leave.”

Sheng Wang said “hmm”, picked up his schoolbag and slung it behind one shoulder.Then he added: “Song Sirui, Qi Jiahao and Xu Xiaozui are also going to the toilet -”

Jiang Tian had a headache, and he interrupted directly: “I told you everything.”

“Okay.” Sheng Wang nodded, then he felt relieved and followed Jiang Tian out.

During the holidays, students get out of school early, and by 10 o’clock at night, the residential area is much cleaner.Leaving the area of ​​the barbecue restaurant, the noisy voices dispersed like fog at night.

Sheng Wang’s steps didn’t appear to be floating, and he didn’t snake in the lane.He just stepped lightly and walked slowly, always staying half a step behind Jiang Tian, ​​like a leader on inspection.

The leader was drunk and meddling. He pointed at the plastic bag Jiang Tian was holding in his right hand and made a surprise inspection: “What did you buy?”

Jiang Tian was calling for a taxi. Hearing this, he glanced at his hand from the end of his eyes and said, “Cockroach medicine.”

The leader curled his lips and said nothing, looking dissatisfied.

The end of the alley faces Broad Street, with bus and taxi stands, and a subway entrance further away.The moment he emerged from the alley, the sound of traffic passing by at night hit his face.

The car Jiang Tian called came quickly, and Sheng Wang got into the back seat habitually and stayed in his usual seat.He saw Jiang Tian open the passenger door and was about to get in, but he changed his mind temporarily.

He glanced at Sheng Wang and sat in the back seat, but the two were not close to each other, and there was an armrest box between them.

At night, the city is still brightly lit, with warmth and cold intertwined.

Sheng Wang sat down and slumped down, just like he usually slumped in Uncle Chen’s car, with his head pressed against the window glass, looking drowsy.

Just when Jiang Tian thought he had fallen asleep, he suddenly said: “They all think I know you very well.”

Because he had a cold, his voice was hoarse and nasal, which was not out of place in the quiet atmosphere in the car.

Jiang Tian was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at he: “Who are they?”

Sheng Wang didn’t sit up straight, but still leaned back lazily, counting on his fingers: “Gao Tianyang, Zhao Xi, and Zhao Xi’s dad. Those classmates today can barely count, because Zhao Xi said in front of them that you would take me to his dad’s place for dinner.”

He paused and said, “Sheng Mingyang thinks we can be brothers. These people think we are very familiar with each other personally. In the end, we didn’t even say a few words. Isn’t it funny?”

When he spoke like this, he didn’t seem drunk at all.The light outside the car window flows like water, casting a moving light and shadow on the side of he’s face, with a soft velvet outline.

Jiang Tian looked at he for a while and said: “Actually -”

As soon as he said these two words, Sheng Wang muttered again: “I’m so sick and you didn’t even bring me any medicine.”

“…”

Jiang Tian’s thin lips opened and closed, and finally pursed into a straight line, with nothing to say.

After a while, he untied the plastic bag at hand, reached out and turned on the car light above his head and said: “There are plenty of medicines here, and each box contains alcohol. When the alcohol is gone, we can talk about the medicine.”

Sheng Wang turned around and said, “Didn’t you say it was from poisonous cockroaches?”

Jiang Tian: “Do you believe me when I say it?”

Sheng Wang looked at the bag and said, “I am very rich, so I choose the brand when I take medicine.”

Jiang Tian: “Are you going to eat?”

Shengwang thought about it for two seconds and picked up the whole bag.
