The soft white moonlight of the paranoid gangster at 80

Ruan Dahai stared at the car key in his hand for a few seconds, then realized what he was doing and hurriedly returned the car key to Jiang Chen.

"Xiao Jiang, this won't work. I can't have it. You bought this car with your money, what are you doing for me? Besides, I can't drive, and I can't use it even if I have it."

"You can learn to drive if you don't know how to drive, Uncle Hai. Our family has been troubled by your care over the years. Compared with your help and support to me, a car is nothing. It is my heart. Please accept it. "

Jiang Chen spoke sincerely, but Ruan Dahai couldn't refuse, so he had to say: "Okay, I'll take the car, but you can use it first. When I get my driver's license, you can just give me your old car to drive."

"Okay, that's it."

Ruan Dahai showed a rare toughness, and Jiang Chen didn't argue anymore.

It's New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye, and every household is busy welcoming the New Year.

The Jiang family and the Ruan family still celebrate the New Year together this year, but this year they have dinner at the Ruan family.

In addition to the sumptuous reunion dinner, Ruan Dahai prepared New Year's red envelopes for the three juniors Jiang Chen, Jiang Yao, and Zhang Chunxi.

Although both Jiang Chen and Zhang Chunxi are already millionaires, they were still very happy to receive the New Year's money from their elders. Especially Zhang Chunxi, who said sweet words and jumped in without any money, which made Ruan Dahai so happy that he almost gave up. He accepted Zhang Chunxi as his godson.

This year's Spring Festival is the first time Ruan Qingqing has not spent it with her family, but she is not alone.

She held a New Year's Party in her studio and invited Minai, Chen Wei, Kraft and others.

Everyone brought one or two good friends with them, and there were more than a dozen people in total. It was quite a lively gathering to eat, drink and have fun.

After the party, Chen Wei and Mei Ne stayed to help Ruan Qingqing clean up.

While packing, the phone on the desk rang, and Ruan Qingqing ran over to pick it up immediately.

The studio has not yet started operations, and the only people who know the phone number are her familiar friends and family members in China.

"Honey, happy new year."

When he heard Jiang Chen's familiar deep voice on the other end of the phone, Ruan Qingqing couldn't stop the sweet smile on his lips.

"Happy New Year, husband."

When calling her husband, Ruan gently and deliberately lowered his voice, and warmth quickly appeared on his cheeks.

This was the first time she called her husband in front of outsiders, so she felt embarrassed.

Jiang Chen noticed something and chuckled in his voice, "Is there anyone around?"

Ruan Qingqing glanced at Chen Wei and Mei Nai who were busy and responded lightly, "The party has just ended. Sister Wei Wei and Mei Nai are helping to clean up."

"Honey, I'm here at your new house."

"are you alone?"

"Well, I want to have a nice chat with you." There was a hint of coquettishness in his tone.

Ruan Qing thought for a while and said softly: "How about you wait for a while and I'll call you when I'm done."

"Ok, I will wait for you."

After finally cleaning up and sending Chen Wei and Mei Ne away, Ruan Qingqing couldn't wait to pick up the phone on her desk.

Lovers always have endless things to say, and the time is ticking, and 10 minutes have passed in the blink of an eye.

Ruan stared at the watch on his wrist gently, "Okay, I really can't say any more."

"It's okay, wife. I have money now. I have a lot of money. I can afford the phone bill."

"That's not okay. You can't spend money carelessly if you have money."

For more than 10 minutes, every extra minute the two of them talked would cost more than 1 yuan in phone charges. No matter how rich she was, she would feel heartbroken.

Jiang Chen had no choice but to say, "Okay, please pay attention to safety when you return to the dormitory."

"Yeah. I know."

"My wife I love you."

"I love you too, bye."

After a few seconds of silence, the call was still connected, and neither of them was willing to hang up.

A chuckle escaped from Jiang Chen's throat, "You hang up first." "Oh, I'll hang up then."

"Ah."

Putting down the phone, Ruan walked gently to the balcony, leaned on the railing and looked at the neon city night view, with dense longing in his heart, as if he was tasting a cup of cappuccino with a milky fragrance, sweet and bitter, but It is also fragrant and intoxicating.

……

After chatting with Ruan Qingqing on the phone, Jiang Chen sat on the sofa alone, thinking quietly until he received a page from Su Yu.

Today is New Year's Eve, and the bar has hung up red lanterns and confetti, making it look even more festive than usual.

Su Yu invited a few friends to come to the bar to spend New Year's Eve.

Jiang Chen looked familiar to everyone else, except the man sitting next to Su Yu.

Jiang Chen didn't pay much attention at first. It wasn't until Su Yu introduced the other party's identity that he became seriously nervous.

"This is my brother, Su Qian, also Qing Qing's eldest cousin."

"Big cousin."

Su Qian is a national defense soldier and went to the army after graduation. This year he finally got a vacation and came back to celebrate the Spring Festival.

"Hello, Jiang Chen."

Perhaps because of the soldier, Su Qian looked very serious and informal, but his tone was quite polite, and he took the initiative to pour Jiang Chen wine from a bottle, which was also a kind of recognition of Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen's tense mood suddenly relaxed a lot, "Thank you, cousin."

Su Qian picked up his cup, clinked it with him, and suddenly asked, "Do you usually like to come to the bar?"

Jiang Chen shook his head, "Very few."

Su Qian nodded with satisfaction, "That's good, don't follow Xiao Yu's example and just love to live and drink. He deserves to be single at such an old age."

Su Yu: "..."

"Brother, you have the nerve to accuse me. You are two years older than me. Don't you also have a girlfriend?"

"Are you comparing yourself to me? I am dedicating myself to the country, what are you trying to do?"

Perhaps because he was used to being in the army, Su Qian's words were full of force and coldness, and the atmosphere suddenly became serious.

Seeing that neither Jiang Chen nor Zhang Chunxi dared to say anything, Su Feng gave a rare smile and said, "Relax, don't be nervous, I'm joking with Xiao Yu."

Su Yu also smiled, "Jiang Chen called you out today because he wanted you to meet my brother."

Jiang Chen nodded, picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured it for Su Qian and Su Yu.

After three drinks, we became familiar with each other.

Su Feng told him about life in the army, while Jiang Chen talked about future plans and ideas, and the conversation was quite congenial.

Later, Su Qian was too drunk, so Su Yu had no choice but to take the first step.

Jiang Chen sat for a while and chatted with other people. He felt that it was not interesting, so he got up and went to add two dozen beers and fruit plate snacks, and paid the bill. After that, he found a beautiful girl sitting at the bar on the first floor. The flirtatious Zhang Chunxi.

"gone!"

Jiang Chen grabbed Zhang Chunxi's collar and left.

After leaving the bar, Zhang Chunxi complained dissatisfiedly: "I don't have a girlfriend until now, and it's all because of you! I finally managed to pick up a beautiful girl, but you ruined it before I even had time to ask for her pager number."

Jiang Chen squinted at him and scoffed coldly, "You are obsessed with me, what's the difference between looking for a girlfriend in a bar and looking for a wife in a brothel?"

Zhang Chunxi: "..."

"Don't talk nonsense, this girl is so good-looking, she looks pure and innocent."

Jiang Chen twitched his lips, "Would you like to go back and take a look at what your innocent girl is doing?"

Zhang Chunxi really ran back to the bar.

Two minutes later, he came out dejected.
