At night, it was already as dark as ink outside, but the neon lights in the bar were flashing, and the lights in the disco area were flashing as if it was dawn. Jiang Lai hadn't been to a bar for a long time, and was a little uncomfortable. He felt that the noise hurt his ears, so he pulled Meng Man to sit at the bar.
"Ding Dong." Jiang Lai listened to the dry sound with one hand supporting his head on the bar, and with the other hand, he shook the glass in his hand boredly, and the ice cubes hit the inner wall of the glass, making a few crisp sounds.
The swing was too big, and the light blue liquid almost overflowed. Meng Man, who was sitting next to her and loved drinking, couldn't bear to see Jiang Lai squandering the wine, so she shouted, "Sister, why don't you drink it and let me drink it? What are you doing?"
Jiang Lai frowned and looked at the wine in her hand: "Hey. It's so bitter. Why doesn't it taste the same as before?"
Meng Man scolded her unceremoniously, "You're used to being your lady, and you can't even taste the wine. Tell me, how long has it been since you went out for a drink with me?"
Meng Man was her best friend. They had been playing together since junior high school and studying together in high school. But later Meng Man went abroad to study, and she stayed in China to study at university, so the two had less contact. Meng Man often flew back to China, but Jiang Lai might not come out to meet her.
As for the reason, of course it was because Shen He'an controlled her too strictly. Not only was she not allowed to smoke, get tattoos, or come to the bar, he also required her to behave like a lady, to sit and stand properly, to excel in her studies, to be well-read...
Jiang Lai sometimes wondered if Shen He'an had watched "Remaking a Lady" when she was young, which is why this love of transforming ladies was engraved in her mind.
However, Henry's character in the play is quite suitable for a white knight. If it weren't for Shen He'an's illness, she would have no chance to get close to him, so Jiang Lai could barely endure it.
And she didn't completely endure it, occasionally she also liked to jump on Shen He'an's minefield. Sometimes when she went too far, she could still appreciate Shen He'an's jumping expression that would never appear in front of outsiders. Jiang Lai had also seen Shen He'an's chest heaving violently because of her anger.
How could she still look like the calm and self-sustaining CEO in front of outsiders? Jiang Lai was overjoyed every time she saw Shen He'an like this, so hiding cigarettes, going out secretly, etc., were not very fun in themselves, but making Shen He'an angry was more fun.
But it's not that Shen He'an would not punish her. At the beginning, Shen He'an still acted like a guardian, and would be very serious and without any flirtatiousness. He would make her stand in the corner like a teacher teaching a student, or hit her palm with a ruler.
But later, it gradually changed, and she wore less and less clothes when she was punished. For minor offenses, a few spankings and a beating would count, but as for major offenses...
Jiang Lai had been punished once. That time, Shen He'an scolded her for skipping piano class, and she turned off her phone in anger and lost contact.
I heard from Sister Ali, Shen He'an's personal assistant, that Shen He'an was looking for her like crazy, and she was a workaholic and even turned down several meetings. After being caught, Jiang Lai was pressed on the legs by Shen He'an and spanked with a belt. It was a real spanking, not flirting. The spanking hurt so much that she cried and screamed, her cries almost overturned the roof, and her butt was swollen for three days.
Meng Man was dumbfounded when she knew about this, but she couldn't define it as domestic violence, and she felt that something was wrong. Later, she analyzed it herself and asked her if Shen He'an was in the circle, why was he so dom among doms.
Jiang Lai said that Shen He'an might be born with it. As long as he stood there without a smile, the natural aura of a superior could not be suppressed.
But Jiang Lai was quite fond of this, because Shen He'an was particularly sexy when he was teaching people a lesson. But in the final analysis, it was because Shen He'an had a good-looking face, which just happened to be in Jiang Lai's aesthetic point, so he would not lose anything.
But Meng Man didn't think so. They were all in the same circle, so Meng Man naturally knew what the person in charge of the Shen family looked like. She said that Shen He'an looked like a boring old-fashioned person, and he was not worthy of her friend Jiang Lai at all.
In addition, Chen He'an controls Jiang Lai in every way, and even has to report to him before going out to play with her. His style is no different from that of an antique from the last century. Therefore, Meng Man has a lot of opinions about Shen He'an.
But no matter how much she disagrees, she also knows that this relationship was forced by Jiang Lai, and Jiang Lai seems to be very happy now. Even if she is bound, she feels that she enjoys it. In the final analysis, only she knows whether the relationship is good or not. As an outsider, she can't say anything, but occasionally she gets angry. She takes the opportunity to say something sarcastic to Jiang Lai.
Just like now. She said that Jiang Lai has no humanity when it comes to the opposite sex and forgets friends when she sees beauty. While she was indignant, as if she wanted to chop Jiang Lai's man, she couldn't help gossiping: "Hey, I forgot to ask you when we met last time, does Shen He'an snore when he sleeps?"
Jiang Lai was a little speechless. These are all rumors in the circle. Perhaps it was because Shen Hean was too perfect, and people who were jealous and bored would always try to make up some rumors about him. Some people said that Shen Hean was gay before, but the rumor was broken when a mysterious woman appeared next to him. However, only people have seen Shen Hean with a woman, but no one has posted a photo of that woman, so the rumor is still in doubt.
As for this woman, of course it was Jiang Lai. Shen Hean never took her to any party with acquaintances, and Jiang Lai had never met Shen Hean's friends. It was a coincidence that she was seen by others - although this coincidence was created by her.
Later, some people said that Shen Hean had been working for many years and his body had long been depleted. Although he was only in his early thirties, his body was no different from that of a man in his sixties. Later, the more they said, the more exaggerated it was, saying that he snored and drooled when he slept, which was no different from an old man, and that his sexual function had long been exhausted, and that the Shen Group might be extinct in the future...
People who said these were really bored. Although Jiang Lai often called Shen Hean "Lao Deng", she had to admit that Shen Hean was still in his prime. How bad can the health of a person who can do it for a whole night be?
But Jiang Lai really likes to listen to these gossips. She will keep them in mind and tell Shen Hean with exaggeration when she gets home. She loves to see Shen Hean's frustrated look.
Jiang Lai knows that what Meng Man wants to ask is not whether Shen Hean snores, but their sex life and disharmony. Jiang Lai is a little puzzled. Why has Meng Man become more reserved after living abroad for a while?
After she said "no snoring", she was about to say something else when her eyes suddenly caught the familiar figure walking towards them not far away.
The beating she received last time was enough to make Jiang Lai quiet for a while. She didn't dare to lose contact for the time being, so she symbolically sent a message to Shen Hean before going out today: [Lao Deng, Meng Man asked me out, I'm going to the bar~ I will try my best to restrain myself from touching the male model's chest muscles, don't worry, I still love you when I come back! (Heart shape)]
Chen Hean called her a few minutes later. At that time, she was already in Meng Man’s sports car, so she pretended not to see him.
The call was automatically hung up because no one answered it for a long time, and soon a message came in: [You can’t be a good boy in the bar. Discuss with your friends to go somewhere else to play, or come to our house for a drink.]
Jiang Lai hadn’t acted up for a long time, and she was itching to do something, so she didn’t reply to this message. Half an hour later, Chen Hean asked her where she was, and half an hour later, Chen
Hean asked her to send her location. Jiang Lai didn’t reply at all. After enjoying Chen Hean’s anxious look for a while, she finally told her where she was when Sister Ali called.
Sister Ali represented Chen Hean’s team of bodyguards. If the bodyguards came to arrest her, would she still have face in front of Meng Man? But she still remembered to emphasize that she hadn’t seen her friends for a long time, and she wanted to have fun today.
Sister Ali was always soft and hard, so she just reminded her, "Boss Chen has gone to pick you up, Miss."
Jiang Lai's face fell after hanging up the phone. At that time, Meng Man was passionately saying bad things about Chen He'an to her, and she didn't notice Jiang Lai's mood change. When she asked if he snored, Jiang Lai happened to see Chen He'an walking towards them.
Jiang Lai had evil thoughts and complained unceremoniously: "Yes, the rumors are true. Chen He'an is indeed an old man. Not only does he snore, but he can't do anything else. He can't last more than five minutes. Tsk tsk. But he is not born with good conditions. Don't look at his height of 188, he is simply hanging peppers under a big tree-um..."
It's not that Jiang Lai didn't speak, it's that fate grabbed her by the neck.
Meng Man was indignant and unbelievable at the same time. She couldn't wait to ask if it was true or not. Can you really tolerate this! Although Chen He'an gives you 100w to play with every month, we are not the kind of women who can give up our bottom line for money! Five minutes, how can you be happy in the second half of your life!
Meng Man had a lot of things to say, but she swallowed them back cowardly when she saw Chen He'an's face.
She glanced at her friend, Jiang Lai looked even more cowardly than her, she laughed awkwardly at Chen He'an: "Nao Gong, why are you here?" Chen
He'an loosened his hand that was pinching Jiang Lai's neck, patted her gently, and then smiled gently at Meng Man: "Hello, I'm Jiang Lai's boyfriend Shen He'an, I'm here to take her home."
This was the first time Chen He'an met her friend. Jiang Lai didn't expect Chen He'an to call himself a "boyfriend", but thinking about it carefully, there was nothing strange about it.
Chen He'an was a decent man, and his words and deeds in front of outsiders must be impeccable. What lover, what support, these words can't come out of his mouth.
But did she agree to say that he was her boyfriend without authorization?
Although she knew it was fake, Jiang Lai was still unhappy. Of course, it is also possible that she was unhappy because it was fake.
The respectable man Chen He'an naturally put his arm around her shoulders and acted intimately but not overly affectionate with her. There was nothing wrong with his gentlemanly question: "It's getting late now, how about I give you a ride?"
Meng Man tried to communicate with Jiang Lai with her eyes, but the two of them winked at each other for a few seconds and no one could tell what the other wanted to say.
Meng Man glared at Jiang Lai in frustration, then said very tactfully: "No, I drove here, I'll call a designated driver later." Shen He'an
nodded slightly at her: "Okay, be careful when you go back, we'll leave first."
Jiang Lai reluctantly picked up the glass of wine on the bar that she disliked as too bitter and drank it all. Under Shen He'an's slightly narrowed, warning eyes, she reluctantly said goodbye to Meng Man again, her tone full of regret: "Dear Man, remember to bring Cather with you next time you go on a date, I miss the feeling of touching him."
When his eyes swept over Meng Man, Meng Man's whole body froze. For some reason, she felt like Shen He'an wanted to kill her. She gritted her teeth and gave Jiang Lai a look, and then said: "Okay, okay, you go quickly."
Shen He'an took Jiang Lai and left. Meng Man looked at the intimate backs of the two people with worry. When the backs of the two people were about to disappear around the corner, she seemed to see Shen He'an raise his hand and slap his friend's butt.
