There was still half a glass of wine left in front of her, and it would be a waste not to drink it. So Jiang Tang's professional habit kicked in, and he naturally raised his glass, which he had just filled, and said to Liu Qingqing.
"Want a drink? I'll finish mine, but you can have whatever you like."
"Who...who wants to be with you..."
Before Liu Qingqing could finish speaking, her face flushed, Jiang Tang had already downed the wine in his glass, completely disregarding Liu Qingqing's feelings.
For a moment, even Jiang Tang felt a little dizzy and hot, which made his expression distorted and then relaxed.
After a while, Jiang Tang comfortably opened his eyes, raised his handsome eyebrows, took a deep breath and exhaled with a refreshing air.
"Ah...not bad. I never thought I could afford such expensive wine these days."
When he first came to the bar, he drank the cheapest drinks, only daring to sip them lightly. Looking at the elegantly dressed crowd around him, he remained inside in his school uniform, his emotions rising and falling with the light and shadow.
The first woman to treat him to good wine was named Liu Chuyun.
From that moment on, her red dress remained etched in Jiang Tang's mind, lingering there.
Liu Qingqing looked into Jiang Tang's eyes and saw the faint, golden memories that welled up within them.
For some inexplicable reason, she didn't know what was wrong with her, but she picked up the wine glass in front of her. The transparent glass reflected her slightly flushed, drunken face and somewhat dazed eyes.
Disliking the reflection of herself in the glass or the liquor, Liu Qingqing downed the cocktail in one gulp.
Now, it's no longer visible.
But the cough that followed made Liu Qingqing seem somewhat forced and reluctant, like a childish woman.
"Cough cough..."
This made it seem like a long way off for her to gain the upper hand and take the initiative in front of Jiang Tang.
What did you adjust?
"...Mojito"
"Can you mix other drinks?"
"I've learned a little bit..."
"Why would I learn this? I don't learn this stuff. I used to work here, have you seen me before?"
"...Never seen it before."
Liu Qingqing lied.
"That's really unfortunate."
But Jiang Tang took it seriously.
Somehow, after the two of them shared a drink, the tense atmosphere suddenly vanished.
Jiang Tang and Liu Qingqing actually started chatting casually.
It was triggered passively in the bar. Jiang Tang wasn't chatting with the girl next to him; he was coughing.
Didn't you just ask me what I meant?
Jiang Tang slowly poured himself a glass of gin, and also poured one for Liu Qingqing.
"I'll tell you after you finish drinking it."
Even the passive ability to trick people into drinking has been triggered, but he doesn't sell alcohol anymore... he doesn't need to sell alcohol anymore.
He was no longer the poor boy he used to be, no longer struggling to make a living, with so many women liking him, able to afford a house worth hundreds of thousands, and acting all high and mighty in college.
But I still can't resist the fleeting intrusion of certain memories, and I still want to drink something alone, even if I don't have anyone to chat with.
If we bump into each other, we'll have a drink together.
Although the other person wasn't exactly a great drinking companion.
Liu Qingqing frowned again, her breathing quickened, and she sounded like she was about to get angry.
Jiang Tang ignored her, closed his eyes, and slowly drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
His complexion was normal, making it hard not to suspect that he had some kind of constitution that allowed him to drink a lot without getting drunk.
But at the same time, it really makes you want to see...
He's drunk, but what does he look like?
Jiang Tang drank it, while Liu Qingqing drank as she pleased.
But in Liu Qingqing's opinion, she couldn't be so casual.
She and Jiang Tang were locked in a fierce argument; however much he drank, she had to drink just as much.
So she finished the wine in her glass and received a compliment from Jiang Tang, whether it was a provocation or something else, she couldn't tell.
"You have a good alcohol tolerance, just like Chu Yun."
Liu Chuyun is a heavy drinker, even though she is someone who hates alcohol very much and used to be a teetotaler.
For the sake of her career, and also so that Liu Qingqing could enjoy a comfortable life, she worked very hard and was very pitiful...
Jiang Tang was her salvation, the hand she clung to in the boundless abyss.
"Not as good as you... That's not what I want to hear."
"Okay, okay, let me think, what did I just say?"
"Hey!" Liu Qingqing's emotions were being pulled back and forth by Jiang Tang. He was the real tormentor, right? 369 from the bar!
"Haha, just kidding, you're so easily teased, my... senior~"
Jiang Tang propped his cheek up with one hand, looking at Liu Qingqing with a flirtatious gaze. He never blushed when looking at girls, and he did so openly and honestly.
It turns out he still remembered that she was his senior.
Liu Qingqing's eyes darted around, and she shrank her shoulders and hunched her chest.
The red dress she wore was the same style as Liu Chuyun's, except...
She clearly couldn't pull off the low-cut design of the red dress.
Jiang Tang just said: Don't let your own ideas dictate other people's lives.
"Liu Qingqing, Chu Yun has given you a very good life. Look at your clothes and your appearance, LV bags, Cartier earrings..."
"Why are you saying all this..."
"It's nothing, I'm just envious. You're carefree, moving from one ivory tower to another."
Meanwhile, outside the tower, her aunt was forging ahead, constantly acquiring wealth and striving for success, eventually growing into the powerful woman she is today, Liu Chuyun, whom the entire city of Chengdu looks up to.
Are you mocking me?
"No, I'm just telling the truth. By the way, have you ever been in a relationship?"
Liu Qingqing's breathing suddenly quickened.
"It seems like there's no talk of it."
"Mind your own business!" She poured herself another glass of wine. This time, she didn't need Jiang Tang's company. She frowned and drank it all in one gulp, as if trying to hide her panicked feelings.
"Do you know that Chu Yun has never been in a relationship before? I was her first love."
Jiang Tang spoke calmly and slowly, but for some reason, it made Liu Qingqing's heart sink.
Her IQ is not low, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to get into Tianfu University, and her EQ is even higher, so how could she not understand Jiang Tang's meaning?
Even without Jiang Tang's reminder, she knew how much Yun's mother had sacrificed for her...
But it is precisely because of this that she feels dissatisfied and thinks it is not worth it for her aunt, Yun Ma, who has raised her for many years, to fall in love with a good-looking but frivolous man like Jiang Tang.
"I think you're probably thinking to yourself right now that I'm a womanizer, a scumbag, and that you've made a mistake in choosing your aunt."
Jiang Tang continued.
"...It's good that you know."
I'd like to pass on those words to you verbatim.
"You've never been in a relationship, yet you demand others to have your own imagined version of love. You oppose my relationship with Chuyun but can't understand it, leaving Chuyun caught in the middle."
"Isn't it you who truly lacks self-awareness?"
“But you did such filthy things…” Liu Qingqing’s tone weakened noticeably.
"Sour things? Referring to sex...?"
Jiang Tang chuckled.
"If this is considered sordid, then how can humanity continue? Even you, Liu Qingqing, would not have been born into this world."
"That's not what I meant!"
"What is that? Tell me!" Jiang Tang became increasingly unreasonable after drinking.
Liu Qingqing blushed deeply, turned her head away, her shoulders trembling slightly, her mind flashing back to the realities of her junior Jiang Tang and her aunt Liu Chuyun.
Liu Qingqing was speechless. She suddenly stood up from the bar counter, wanting to leave, but a sudden dizziness made her vision go black. Although she didn't faint, her body was already swaying precariously.
This is postural hypotension caused by suddenly standing up. When blood pressure drops too quickly, it can lead to insufficient blood supply to the brain, resulting in cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, causing dizziness, weakness in the limbs, and blurred vision.
It's a fact that Jiang Tang doesn't really like Liu Qingqing.
But it is also true that his body acts before his consciousness.
He grabbed the girl's shoulders and waist, a perfectly scientific position to prevent her from falling, though it was somewhat ambiguous.
Liu Qingqing had no idea what was happening; she simply leaned towards the side that felt safe and the side that felt warm, acting on instinct.
She rested her head on Jiang Tang's chest, her body soft and weak, as if she wanted to open her eyes but lacked the strength to do so. Her eyebrows were still trembling slightly, her breathing was rapid, and the luster on her red lips was alluring.
A brief sense of security settled into Liu Qingqing's heart.
The two remained in that position for a short while, which was actually not long, but in Jiang Tang's heart, it felt like an eternity after he realized what he had done.
He wanted to abandon her, but she was Liu Chuyun's adopted daughter, Liu Qingqing.
Oh well... if I've been taken advantage of, I've been taken advantage of. Jiang Tang accepts his fate.
For Liu Qingqing, who was dizzy and hadn't yet received enough blood and oxygen to her brain to recover, the process was even longer.
It went on for so long that she became somewhat addicted to it.
