When Qin Lu arrived at the red bar, it was the time when the bar’s traffic was at its peak.
As soon as he entered, all kinds of noisy sounds penetrated his eardrums. Not to mention the crowds of people, which made him feel regretful for a while that he wanted to turn around and leave.
Zhou Beiwang seemed to know what he was thinking and came out to pick him up before could even leave. He took Qin Lu to the reserved booth.
The booth is located in the public area because Zhou Beiwang felt that since coming to the bar, there must be an atmosphere and drinking in the private room is no better than going home to drink.
Besides Qin Lu, he also made an appointment with Dou Binbin and Tao Ding.
One just came back from abroad, and the other just came back from a business trip.
They didn’t expect Zhou Beiwang to call Qin Lu out, especially the former, who stood up excitedly.
“Male god!”
Qin Lu only nodded his head as he found an empty seat to sit down.
Zhou Beiwang poured him a glass of red wine, “Didn’t you say you were going to meet your partner? Why did you suddenly come for a drink?”
In one gulp, Qin Lu drank the red wine in the glass, “I just want to suddenly drink some wine.”
As a good friend since childhood, Zhou Beiwang could tell that he had something on his mind.
“God, Zhou Beiwang said that you are dating Mr. Jiang, is this true?”
Dou Binbin couldn’t control the strong desire to gossip in his heart. As Qin Lu’s most loyal fan, when Zhou Beiwang told him at first, he still didn’t believe it. But he also knows that the other party will not be aimless.
Qin Lu put the cup on the table and gently pulled off his bow tie. With his voice a little hoarse from drinking, he spoke. “Well, it is the truth.”
After the matter being confirmed by the idol himself, Dou Binbin didn’t know how to react for a while. He should be sad that his idol has a partner already, but he should be more upset that his idol’s partner is a man. If it is revealed in the future, it will definitely be bad for the idol. However, the male god has withdrawn from the circle. It seems that even if it is revealed, it will not have much impact.
“I told you it’s true, but you still don’t believe it.” Zhou Beiwang raised his legs.
Dou Binbin sniffed, “I can only believe half of what you say. It’s not that you haven’t lied to me before. Back then, you lied to me that the male god was going to make a movie in a certain town. If I hadn’t gone to check it out in advance, I wouldn’t have known you were lying to me.”
Zhou Beiwang said speechlessly, “You’re just a bastard.”
Dou Binbin immediately explained: “Just because I’m going to step on the spot doesn’t mean I’ll disturb the male god’s filming. I’d just like to take a look from afar!”
Tao Ding saw that the two were quarreling while talking, and he was speechless for a while. He looked at Qin Lu, who was going to get the red wine bottle. So he offered to pour him a glass and then picked up his own wine glass.
“You’ll be called Mr. Qin from now on. Congratulations to Mr. Qin.”
Qin Lu smiled and clinked glasses with him: “Thank you.”
Although today’s meeting is an internal matter of the Qin Group, many people have already received the news. Qin Lu planned to attack Qin Dong’s faction.
When he clears out all the members of Qin Dong’s faction from the Qin Group, the entire Qin Group will be Qin Lu’s all-in-one.
After Zhou Beiwang finished speaking with Dou Binbin, he moved to sit next to Qin Lu. “You haven’t answered my question just now. You must have quarreled with him, right?”
Qin Lu glanced at him just after he finished speaking. “It’s impossible for Liucheng and I to quarrel, so don’t talk nonsense.”
“Then what’s bothering about?”
Qin Lu was silent for two seconds. “It’s not annoying. I’m just a little worried.”
Zhou Beiwang: “Huh? Chairman of the board, shouldn’t he be planning a strategy? What else is there to worry about?”
Qin Lu still expressed his inner thoughts, “There were many girls who liked him before. And the blind dates he went on after graduation were with girls as well. As if that’s not enough, many ladies are still all over him now. There’s also this senior of him who likes him that returned to China yesterday. She wanted him to pick her up, but he refused. When I asked him why he had never thought of being with his senior before, he said he didn’t like long-distance relationships. But this will not be the case now for the two of them. “
Zhou Beiwang immediately understood what was happening. “Are you worried that he used to be heterosexual and that he actually liked girls? That maybe because he wanted to get married on the spur of the moment, or he couldn’t tell whether he liked men or women, or he was afraid that he would regret not marrying in the future, he had chosen you just to give it a go?”
Qin Lu responded, “I’m not worried about whether he likes those people.”
Zhou Beiwang: “I know you trust him, but you’re worried that he hasn’t figured out what’s in his heart.”
Qin Lu said in a deep voice: “After work, I went to look for him in the community, and I happened to see a woman standing in front of him. That woman was probably the senior from yesterday.”
Zhou Beiwang suddenly smiled. He leaned on the sofa, picked up a glass of wine, and said, “I didn’t think that you’d be so entangled. Aren’t you always very decisive? Since you have doubts in your heart, why don’t you just ask him directly? It’s better than you being anxious here for a long time.”
After Zhou Beiwang finished speaking, he clicked his tongue twice.
“No wonder everyone says that falling in love will make people’s IQ drop. I didn’t believe it before, but I finally believe it after seeing you do the same.”
“Yes, male god. If you have any doubts, just ask Mr. Jiang so that everything will be clear.” Dou Binbin was a little uncomfortable seeing that the male god was worried about gain and loss.
“That’s right.” Tao Ding also echoed, “Dating and relationships are not a fan of worries and doubts, so it’s good for both parties to talk about it.”
Qin Lu drank the wine in his glass in one gulp. A little bored, Zhou Beiwang just happened to ask him for a drink again, so he came over.
Putting the cup on the table, Qin Lu fumbled for his phone in his pocket.
Just then, his phone rang first.
Qin Lu took out his mobile phone. Zhou Beiwang glanced at it and happened to see that the caller was Jiang Liucheng.
“You still leave me here to play with my heart.” Zhou Beiwang said sourly. Obviously, his former blind date was ‘robbed’ by his friends, but he had to help enlighten him, and now he has to eat another wave of dog food from them.

As soon as the call was connected, the noisy voice in the bar reached Jiang Liucheng’s ears.
“Huh? Are you at the bar?”
Qin Lu drank a lot of wine, and the alcohol in his system was getting a little stronger. He rubbed his eyebrows and turned up his voice before he heard the young man’s voice.
“Zhou Beiwang invited me out for a drink, and I just came over after work.”
He seemed to hear his voice that was a little uncomfortable, so Jiang Liucheng asked. “Which bar are you at?”
“Red bar.” After Qin Lu replied, he asked again: “Do you want to come over?”
“Well, I’ll be going now. Wait for me for half an hour.”
“Okay.”
Half an hour later, Zhou Beiwang brought Jiang Liucheng in since Qin Lu sent him to pick Jiang Liucheng up.
“Am I a slave of you two? If I let you two come over, I have to go out and pick you up one by one. Am I a servant?”
Jiang Liucheng walked to Qin Lu’s side. The other’s expression could not be seen clearly under the bar’s dim light. But upon seeing that two-thirds of the wine bottle in front of him had been drunk, it was obvious that he drank a lot.
“Why did you drink so much all of a sudden?”
Jiang Liucheng sat down beside him, “Is it because you have been under a lot of pressure recently?”
Qin Lu glanced at the three of them. Zhou Beiwang raised his hands, got up, and squeezed himself up together with Dou Binbin and the others.
Qin Lu leaned on the sofa. His slender arms passed behind Jiang Liucheng’s neck, and his head tilted slightly towards Jiang Liucheng as if leaning on his shoulder.
“Well, there is indeed a bit of pressure recently.”
Jiang Liucheng thought that the pressure he said was a matter in the company. He knew that Qin Lu had just taken over Qin’s Group, and Qin’s Group was such a big company. It is not easy for him to handle it alone. ” It doesn’t matter if you don’t do well. Just take your time, and everything will be fine.”
Qin Lu knew that he had misunderstood. He did not explain but confessed: “Actually, I just went to find you after work. I wanted to take a look at you, and I happened to see you downstairs. There was a woman talking to you… Who could that person be? Is it also one of your previous blind dates?”
“Why didn’t you tell me when you came?” Jiang Liucheng looked surprised, “That person is not my previous blind date. She is the senior sister Fan Guo Qifan mentioned yesterday.”
Qin Lu felt a little sour, but it was really that Senior Fan of his. “How did she know that you live in Siming Community? Is it happened to be by chance?”
Jiang Liucheng: “I called you just to talk about this. It was Zheng Kailin who told her. She was going to return to China to develop something and wanted to rent a house in Yunshi. So she asked him, and Zheng Kailin recommended Siming Community to her.”
Qin Lu gritted his teeth. This man really acted secretly to try and break them apart. He even recruited people in the Siming community just to do so.
“Then you just met at the gate of the community?”
“I told her to leave me alone, but she asked me to lead the way. This kind of trivial matter is not easy to refuse, so I agreed.”
Qin Lu hesitated for a second and said: “She really looks pretty, and she is very intellectual. Didn’t you like girls before? Is she not tempting at all?”
Jiang Liucheng met his gaze, “It has nothing to do with me whether she is pretty or not. I already have you. No matter how beautiful a girl is, I can’t be tempted. If I can easily be tempted by that, then I am nothing more but a scumbag. Is this the reason why you suddenly came to the bar to drink?”
Qin Lu’s eyes flickered.
Jiang Liucheng already understood at this moment: “You said that you have been under pressure recently because of this matter?”
Seeing that he had guessed it, Qin Lu no longer denied it and frankly expressed his psychological thoughts: “There is indeed one thing, you used to go on blind dates with women. And even though you went on a blind date with two men later on, you quickly felt that they were not suitable for you. Now that you’re with me, I’m afraid you will regret it later and find that you still don’t like men.”
“It makes sense for you to worry.” Jiang Liucheng nodded. “I’m really not sure if I like men or not.”
Upon hearing these words, Qin Lu’s heart was caught off guard, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
“But I’m sure I like you.”
Before the bitter taste of that emotion spread from his lips, Qin Lv was stunned.
Jiang Liucheng thought he didn’t hear it. The bar was too noisy after all, so he leaned closer to his ear and repeated: “I said, I’m sure I like you. Did you hear me this time?”
Qin Lv nodded as he tasted the feeling of instant sweetness.
There is a type of people who really don’t like men, but when they meet the right guy, the gender issue is no longer an issue.
“You mean, you only like me, not other men?” Qin Lu asked again.
Jiang Liucheng nodded without hesitation.
Qin Lu said: “Including Cheng Qinghua and Zhou Beiwang? You don’t like them?”
Jiang Liucheng replied: “I don’t like them.”
Zhou Beiwang, who was watching melons from across the table, didn’t expect to eat melons on himself. It took a long time to hold back a dirty word.
“Fuck.”
What the hell did he do? Knowing Qin Lu, he wouldn’t have called people out for a drink if he had known. He had been guiding him all night so that they could make up, and then Qin Lu would attack him when it was over.
Dou Binbin and Tao Ding beside him laughed so much that they turned their heads away, lest Zhou Beiwang mistakenly thought that they were pouring salt on his wound.
