She had never been to a bar or a KTV. This was the first time. She felt like it was like a big adventure. Coincidentally, Vincent was not around. She walked out. The elevator stopped on the second floor. Outside the elevator, a couple came in and kissed each other. Emily spared room for them and walked out. She took a few steps along the corridor on the second floor. People were singing. Some were pleasant to listen to, while others were shouting like they were venting their feelings. Emily strolled around the private rooms. Suddenly, she saw a few men looking up from the translucent glass door in the private room. She had a hunch that they had ulterior motives, so she hurriedly walked out. There was a bathroom beside her, so she took the opportunity and hid.
However, as soon as she walked in, she was stunned.
There was a compromising scene in the bathroom. Perhaps the singing outside overshadowed the sound of this place, so no one noticed the embarrassing scene here for a while.
A man was standing. In front of him, a woman was kneeling, satisfying him either with her hands or her mouth....
A moment later, the man pressed the woman against the washstand. The woman shouted loudly as she shook her hair and looked at the door. The woman noticed Emily's existence long ago and deliberately shouted dissolutely and loudly. Emily stared at her in astonishment and forgot to leave.
Her eyes were covered by one hand as someone took her away while holding her in her arms. The woman's groan still rang in her mind....
Sensing a familiar aura, Emily slowly regained her senses and reached out to touch the hand in her eyes. "Vincent," she shouted softly. Her voice somehow became dry and husky.
Emily had no sexual experience. Although she vaguely knew how it should be, she was thrown into great shock while witnessing the scene. She felt terrified and uneasy subconsciously. Her hands were trembling. It was unknown whether she was frightened or shocked.
Vincent took her into the elevator, and then withdrew the hand covering her eyes. He held her hand. "Are you scared?"
His voice was low and deep, sounding comforting. Emily calmed down and shook her head, "No."
"No?" Vincent raised his eyebrows and looked at her, his eyes filled with inquiry. "Then why are you shaking?"
Emily thought for a moment and said hesitantly, "I'm excited ... and nervous."
Vincent rested his arm on the top of her head, his face turning gloomy. "Have I disturbed you?"
"..."
When the elevator reached the third floor, the door opened. Jaquan was singing the theme song of A Chinese Odyssey, Forever Love. When Emily was pulled out by Vincent, they just happened to see him singing with his eyes closed. "Love and hatred both result from difficulty. It's hard to escape fate. We cannot get close. I should believe it's fate...."
Although Emily did not understand, she could tell that Jaquan sang pleasantly. On the sofa, the group of people who were occupied in games calmed down. They were listening attentively to Jaquan's singing. Even Emma cast her gaze on Jaquan for a long time. The song lasted less than five minutes. She had been staring at Jaquan from beginning to end. Jaquan opened his eyes a few times and met her gaze after turning around. Of course, Janessa, Armando and Randy were also fixed their eyes on him. However, Emma's gaze gave Jaquan a different feeling. Although he couldn't describe what the difference was, he vaguely felt that it was different. The song then ended.
Everyone applauded and Randy handed over a glass of wine, "To Jaquan, the Prince of Love Songs!"
Jaquan clinked glasses with them. Then he sat down. He turned around, finding Emma, who had withdrawn her gaze, was sipping at the red wine. She drank skillfully, looking even more elegant than Arabella. She took off her coat, revealing a plain V-neck sweater. When she bent to put down her wine glass, he could vaguely see her breast. Jaquan did not mean to. They were too close, and he accidentally caught a glimpse of it. He once saw her washing her only bra on the balcony. At that time, she only wore his thick sweater without the bra....
Jaquan probably got drunk and began to think nonsense. He withdrew his gaze and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
Randy noticed that Emily and Vincent returned. He quickly offered his seat and handed over the microphone. "Emily, sing a song!"
Emily waved her hand. "I, I can't."
"Don't be shy." Randy handed the microphone to her. "Just feel free to enjoy yourself. What do you want to sing? I'll help you play it"
Emily flicked a glance at Vincent. The latter gave her a positive look. Only then did she whisper the name of the song. Randy didn't hear it clearly. "What?"
"A Snail and an Oriole."
"What song is this?" Although Randy had never heard of it before, due to his admiration for Emily, he involuntarily flattered her. "It must be especially pleasant! Everyone, sit down!"
Randy played the song with applause to celebrate. Then, he sat down with the group of people and waited quietly with his breath held.
Emily held the microphone, coughed softly, and sang to the music. "There is a vine in front of the door. It has burgeoned forth. A snail, with its heavy shell, is climbing up step by step...."
Randy was speechless with shock.
Armando, Jaquan, Emma, and Janessa were the same.
...
...
...
Vincent smiled as he looked at Emily who was still singing. She was in tune seriously. She shook her head slightly, looking lively and cute.
When she finished and saw everyone's look of surprise, she turned to look at Vincent in confusion and asked, "Isn't it pleasant?"
Vincent clapped first. "Not bad."
The others quickly followed suit. "Good! Very good!"
Randy shouted the loudest. "Emily, you are amazing! This is the most beautiful voice I've heard this year! What a heavenly song!"
Jaquan patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's too much."
"..."
Emily handed the microphone to Randy and sat down beside Vincent. She picked up the wine in front of him and drank it. After finished singing, she realized that she was a little thirsty. She drank wine as if it was water, which shocked everyone.
"Emily, I didn't know you could drink." Randy stood up with the wine and said to her. "Cheers."
Emily didn't know how much she could drink. She just did.
Janessa also stood up with a glass of red wine in her hand. "I will leave the day after tomorrow. Friends, may we have the chance to get together again. Let's drink a toast."
Armando didn't stand up, and the others ignored him. They sat down after drinking.
Randy patted Armando. "Alright, drown your sorrows. Tomorrow, everything will be over!"
Fifth didn't react.
Randy ignored him and chatted with Jaquan. It was rare for them to gather together, so they had a lot to say. Ferne came in, followed by Noah and Christy.
Janessa stood up cheerfully again. "Let's drink to ... our happiness for the moment!"
