Chapter 23.2: Rather that it is a dream
Yang Wei Qi called him and casually asked him: “Have you got home?” He hastily answered her: “Some friends were looking for me” and hung up the phone. He felt very upset and confused. He remembered that earlier some friends had approached him, saying that there is a social event this evening. He felt that the place is too crowded, so with some excused had turn it down.
Now, he suddenly is afraid to go home and face the cold wall. He feared that he would go crazy in the dead of the night. And when he is bored recently, he had looked for the companions.h.i.+p of Yang Wei Qi, however, now he is not able to face her with the most appropriate expression. So he decided to go and join his friends.
The group of friends had booked the entire club for a friend whom would be getting married the day after tomorrow. This is mean to be the childhood buddy bachelor party. The entire scene is in a mess, just like it had been robbed. There is a large gift box where showgirls with ribbons tied to their body dancing out of the box.
The appearance of Zheng Xie seems more popular than those dancing showgirls. The prospective groom was almost in tears when he said: “My buddies, my face is so big ah…. Even Zheng Xie came to join us!”
Before Zheng Xie could respond, the person next to him said: “This guy, Ah Xie, most certainly felt guilty in his mind, so suddenly came here. It is so late.” Zheng Xie just squeeze the corner of the mouth into a smile but did not laugh out loud.
The group of people started playing guessing game of questions and answers with the groom. They asked questions like, when was his first time. Where? How old both parties was? If the guess is wrong, then the groom need to answer or be penalized to drink.
The prospecting groom is tipsy and started to speak confusingly: “The most embarra.s.sing thing with my wife…. One day after high school reunion, I woke up to find myself lying naked next to a female student that I had not seen for years. We were awkward and overwhelmed. So we decided to date and see where it lead it. And we ended up getting together. The next time we had s.e.x, the result is we found her still a virgin. d.a.m.n…. I can’t afford to lose!”
All the people laughed and knock on the bottle ring. The one that laugh the loudest said: “This face is really lost. You do not know even if you had done it or now? Or just even half of it?”
The groom said: “When you are drunk and unconscious, who would remember if it is a real or just a dream? I always thought that it was true.”
The group of people scoff and pound of the table.
Only Zheng Xie did not mix with them. He sat quietly on the sofa in the corner, while staring silently at the big screen on the wall.
He has always been fond of quietness expect in cases where he was drag into the playing group. Most other times, he do not get into trouble together with hem, only stood by the side as spectators. To the others, they have taken that for granted. As long as he is willing to attend, he has given enough face.
Someone handed a can of beer in front of him. He shook his head. “Do not drink. I had quit.”
The other laughed. “Really know how to pretend. The day before yesterday you drank a lot.” Zheng Xie looked up. It is Su Ren Ran’s brother, Su Mao Wei.
Zheng Xie said: “Just quit today.”
