Chapter 78
78 A misunderstanding
The lights in front of Jiulong Hall were brightly lit. As soon as Yu Xiaozhou and the others got out of the car, they saw several luxury cars driving into Jiulong Hall.
The girls were a little nervous. When they held each other’s hands and came in, Cao Shuang said in a small voice, ” “Waa waa waa”
The entire reception hall was very spacious and luxurious. In addition to the service desk in the middle, there were long couches on both sides. The lights above the head illuminated the hall with warm light. A reception staff came forward and asked about the rooms that had been booked in advance. Then, he politely asked someone to bring them into the private room.
Because of the price, the private room they booked was not big. After seeing the prices of the various red wines inside, the girls ‘expressions were a little stiff.
Most of the wine here was imported, and it easily cost tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and the cheapest was more than a few thousand. With their status as students, they naturally could not afford it.
On the other hand, beer was much cheaper. Although the price was still much more expensive than outside, it was still affordable for the few of them as compared to the imported wine. In the end, Cao Shuang ordered a dozen beers after calculating the price for a long time.
Before the wine was served, Yu Xiaozhou and the others could not wait to start singing. It was Cao Shuang’s birthday tonight, and she and Chen Yuwei sang in unison, wishing her a Happy Birthday.
The atmosphere suddenly became lively. When it was almost 12 o ‘clock, the beer was delivered. Yu Xiaozhou poured a glass for each of them. Everyone said a few words of blessing to Cao Shuang and drank the beer in their glasses.
Jiang se did not like beer, but Yu Xiaozhou and the others were rather excited.
Perhaps it was the first time they had come to such an environment and experienced such a nightlife, but the girls all felt it was quite exciting. They fought for the microphone while drinking and had a great time.
In the midst of all the laughter and chatter, Jiang se finished a glass of beer. Although she did not touch it again, she had drunk quite a lot of water. She greeted Cao Shuang and was about to head to the washroom.
The music in the private room was deafening. She didn’t know if Cao Shuang had heard her clearly, but she waved her hand.
When Jiang se opened the door and stepped out, a gust of cold air hit her in the face. After closing the door to the private room, she felt her entire being calm down.
She followed the washroom sign and entered the washroom first. After washing her hands and drying them with tissue paper, she came out and saw a tall, swaying figure walking past the women’s washroom.
Perhaps it was because she had too much to drink that night, Jiang se did not recognize the figure for the first time. However, when she saw someone pass by the washroom, she instinctively stood there for a while and did not rush out.
Although the nine Dragon Hall was a high-class club with strict regulations, it was still a complicated place.
Especially in the middle of the night, there weren’t many people in the bathroom. The person outside seemed to be drunk. To avoid trouble, she stood in the bathroom for a while. Just as she was about to go out again, the person who had passed by earlier came over again with some hesitation.
Jiang se was immediately on her guard.
There were many washrooms on each floor of Jiulong Hall, and the men’s and women’s washrooms were separated and in completely different directions, so it was impossible for her to go to the wrong place. This person had come to the door of the washroom twice. Other than being drunk, there was another possibility that she had been followed by/pervert.
No matter which one it was, it would be troublesome to encounter it.
She took a deep breath. She didn’t wear a coat when she came out, and her phone wasn’t with her. Now that she realized something was wrong, she couldn’t even call for help.
Jiang se returned to the bathroom and turned on the tap. She scooped some water and splashed it on her face to force herself to calm down.
The footsteps outside had just gone away for a while before they came back.
At the moment, she could either wait for the other people in the private room to find her and come looking for her, or wait for the other people in the bathroom to come and see the people outside and drive them away.
However, Cao Shuang and the others were having a good time in the private room. When she came out, even though she had greeted Cao Shuang, as the birthday girl, Yu Xiaozhou and Chen Yuwei had forced Cao Shuang to drink two bottles of wine. The little girl could not hold her liquor well and was already slightly intoxicated. She could not hear what she had said at that time.
As for waiting for other people to go to the bathroom, it was also not reliable. It was very likely that they had retreated after realizing that something was wrong.
Jiang se stayed in the room for a while. She could hear the person outside making a round trip about three or four times. The person’s footsteps were rather heavy. He was clearly drunk.
She calculated that if she waited for him to leave the bathroom door, turn back, and run all the way out of the bathroom, he might not be able to catch up with her given his drunk state.
After making up her mind, Jiang se walked out of the bathroom again. Coincidentally, the person outside passed by the door again. This time, he arrived even faster than before. He did not seem to have gone far. Jiang se was shocked. Before she could retreat, she saw the person’s face clearly. She instinctively called out, ”
“PEI Yi?”
He was so drunk that he couldn’t tell the direction. He held his phone in one hand and pointed at the sign next to the bathroom.
When Jiang se called out to him, he instinctively turned around and called out, ”
“Nannan.”
“Grandma?”
Once she realized that it was PEI Yi who had walked past her a few times, Jiang se naturally felt relieved.
She guessed that he must have come here to drink with nie dan and the others. However, he must have lost his way after drinking, so he came back and forth a few times. He must be looking for a way back.
Jiang se hesitated for a moment. After her rebirth, she had nothing to do with PEI Yi. However, PEI Yi’s vision was blurry and he could not speak clearly. She sighed and reached out to help him up. However, he instinctively flung her hand away.
“Other than my Nannan, no one is allowed to touch me!”
This action caused his body to sway and he stumbled. He almost had to hold onto the wall to stand firm. The phone in his hand fell to the ground with a ‘bang’ and lit up.
“Why did you drink so much?”
She frowned and picked up the phone on the ground. She didn’t notice the screen on the phone, but she was a little worried.
This kid was obviously drunk, and he was still shouting, ” “Grandma.”
In the past, she didn’t realize that he was so clingy to grandma PEI. He would even call out to her when he was drunk.
She felt a headache coming on. How was she going to send him back to grandma PEI in her current situation?
Besides, PEI Yi was already unstable, but he still refused to let her help him. She coaxed him helplessly.
“Stand still, I’ll take you to grandma.”
“Nannan?”
Perhaps it was the word ‘grandmother’ that caught PEI Yi’s attention. He raised his head and stared at Jiang se with his misty eyes.”She doesn’t want me anymore.”
He was bent over and half of his body was leaning against the wall. When he stared at people with his upturned eyes, it was deadly.
Jiang SE’s heart skipped a beat when she met his gaze.
