Young Again

Chapter 1 Can Time Go Back?
A black S450 stopped in front of the Starlight Concert Hall.

Four men got out of the car. Except for the driver, the other three were half drunk and their steps were staggering.

One of them was a man in his thirties, wearing a black coat and a black steel Rolex on his wrist. He was surrounded in the middle.

As soon as I entered the hall, the marketing manager in a black suit and slicked back hair came forward to greet me: "Bosses, please come this way."

The marketing manager stood by with his head down, leading the four people to the second floor on the semi-arc escalator.

"Boss, please pay attention to the steps."

The four people were led to the first and largest private room on the right, talking and laughing and stumbling.

"Haozi, where are you going?"

Seeing that the only sober person did not follow in, a man with a dragon tattoo over his shoulder that was almost crawling out of his collar shouted.

"You guys play first, I'll be right there."

The man called 'Haozi' smiled and greeted him, then was left alone with Marketing in the corridor outside.

"It's okay, don't worry about him."

The Rolex man waved to the two of them, then sat directly on the sofa in the middle.

The other two also sat down on the left and right sides of the U-shaped sofa.

The Rolex man took out a box of Huanghelou soft cream from his pocket, took out two cigarettes, and threw them into the arms of the other two people. Then, he put one in his mouth and looked for a lighter in the other pocket.

Before he could put his hand in, the fire on his right hand moved towards him.

He half-covered his left hand and lit a cigarette.

The grayish-white smoke circulated through the mouth and nose, then was slowly exhaled and disappeared into the dazzling red and blue ambient lights.

Under the influence of alcohol, the muscles of the body became heavier than usual, the consciousness was a little erratic, and there was a slight headache. However, the cigarette that roamed in the nasal cavity gradually eliminated these discomforts with gentle numbness.

"Mr. Chen, let's drink tonight until we are drunk!" said the middle-aged man with Mediterranean hair on the right in a sonorous voice.

The two of them focused their attention on the man called 'Mr. Chen'.

No matter how drunk they were, they would wait and listen before he spoke.

"Goodbye." Chen Wang smiled and waved his hand. "How can I drink more than you?"

"The KTV is full of fake alcohol mixed with water, so it's no problem for each of us to have two." The slightly younger tattooed man on the left encouraged, "It's no fun to drink politely, we have to drink vigorously."

"No, no." Chen Wang was not trying to be brave at all. "You guys can drink Haozi's wine."

"Why do I have anything to do with you?"

Not long after the three of them sat down, the only man who had not drunk anything walked in with a smile and sat next to Chen Wang.

"In the second half, the three of us will dunk on you," said Mediterranean.

"Are you stuffing sausages here? So cruel." Gui Jiahao shrank back.

"Haha." The tattooed man laughed and asked, "What were you talking about with that guy just now?"

"You'll find out later."

Haozi's smile was very mysterious, but men generally prefer to describe this kind of smile as "Yingdang".

After a while, the door of the private room was pushed open, and four sexy beauties with fair skin and visible bust size walked in.

The four of them walked to the middle, smiled synchronously, and said in charming voices: "Good evening, bosses."

This is the minimum consumption that you must try at Shang K.

These girls all have something in common: youth, gracefulness, provocative nudity, heavy but indeed beautiful makeup, and the same nightclub perfume that is so recognizable that it seems all the princesses are using.

The more such occasions occurred, the more Chen Wang’s face blindness became.

But one of the women was taller than the other three even without high heels, which caught Chen Wang's attention for a moment.

With the help of the four great magics of Asia, 'makeup', it seems that there are no ugly women in the world.

However, you can tell at a glance that the girl in front of you is still a beautiful woman with outstanding looks even without any makeup.

There was basically no heavy makeup on her face. She had her hair in a Korean bun with two thin strands of black hair parted on the left and right. She was wearing a royal blue satin dress, which made her look different from the low-class prostitutes and as elegant as a triangular cocktail.

And Chen Wang felt something familiar about her.

She also looked back because of Chen Wang's straightforward gaze.

"Please choose, bosses."

It’s like selling goods, the marketing said with a smile.

"You two bosses, please choose."

Chen Wang moved his eyes away from her and stopped staring at her.

But the bosses on both sides also avoided her tacitly and made choices that suited their status and age - coquettish ones.

In the end, Haozi asked for the youngest girl in a JK skirt as usual.

The girl who had been looked at by Chen Wangduo just now sat next to him.

Although I was the last one to be chosen, I didn't feel awkward because anyone with a discerning eye knew that this was not a loss.

Of course, winning the female competition seemed to mean nothing to her.

The smell on her body seemed to be different, not the style of an assembly line.

Light vanilla scent, quite pleasant.

Indeed, the smell of cigarettes on her body that needed to be covered up was not strong, it was more like she was stained by the smell of cigarettes in the place.

Compared to the others, her clothes were not as revealing, and her plump white thighs were not visible.

But it was the slender and well-proportioned calves with skin as white as cream under the satin skirt.

In the sandals, the bones are clear, the curves are beautiful, the clean and flawless bare feet are slightly raised...

"Boss foot control?"

She looked at Chen Wang.

"...thinking about something." Chen Wang raised his head with his hand that was half covering his mouth and touching his chin.

At this time, the MV of Wu Bai's "Bridge of Tears" began playing on the screen.

So he picked up the microphone.

"I ordered this. If you want to sing it, just tell me earlier..."

Although Haozi complained, he still gave up the song.

Intoxicated and without accompaniment, Chen Wang stole half a beat, but after some adjustments, it became smooth.

This song is one of the few that sounds good even when sung by Wu Bai, and it has recently become popular again because of AI Tao Zhe.

Although his singing skills are not as good as David Tao's, his voice is like that of the young David Tao, melancholy and clean. As soon as he opened his mouth, he showed the level of a commercial K-mic master. Several girls present looked over and showed admiration, which made the emotional value very full.

After the song was finished, the two bosses nearby also applauded.

"How can we even open our mouths to sing the way you sing?"

"Mr. Chen, have you learned this?"

Hai Di originally just wanted to compliment him, but suddenly realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing. Just as he was feeling a little awkward, Chen Wang said, "This is not what you learn in college."

"When did you go to college?" Haozi asked in surprise.

"Hey, you bastard." Chen Wang raised his finger and pointed at Haozi like a husky, "The junior college is also yelling?"

“College is also a university!”

The two of them started talking to each other like this, and suddenly happy laughter broke out in the private room, and the embarrassment that occurred just now seemed to have never happened.

After the next song "Guangdong Love Story" began, Chen Wang gave up the microphone.

This is a must-order song for that nostalgic tattooed boss.

As a foreigner, my poor Cantonese is also the flavor of this song.

Fortunately, Yuezhou is an inclusive city, and no one has yet harshly pointed out that there is a Jingbei accent.

Chen Wang just watched him hugging and touching the girl he was singing with, while singing the somewhat sad song "Guangdong Love Story", expressing his desire to buy love in Guangdong.

Chen Wang smiled, then took out a cigarette and looked at the girl next to him.

But she didn't light a cigarette for herself, but just looked at him in a daze.

Just like at the beginning, Chen Wang looked at her.

"When will you come back to Jiangchuan?"

At this time, Haozi, who was shaking dice with his sister, asked Chen Wang without even raising his head.

"Oh." Taking the cigarette in his mouth, Chen Wang turned his head and replied, "Wait for a while..."

"Chen Wang?"

Before he finished speaking, a puzzled female voice came from the side.

He was stunned for a moment, then slowly looked at her.

The others all stopped at the same time and looked over there with surprise and curiosity.

"you know me?"

Chen Wang was puzzled because he had never been to this store before.

However, I have encountered this before in some of the bosses' entertainment activities, so it is not surprising. Although it is impossible for a girl with such a beautiful face to have no impression at all.

"You went to high school at Jiangchuan No. 3 Middle School?"

The girl asked tentatively.

After saying this, Chen Wang and Gui Jiahao were stunned at the same time, and then they looked at her together.

The two of them felt as if they were hit on the head by an empty cardboard box; it didn't hurt, but they were stunned.

Because they are all from Jiangchuan No. 3 Middle School.

A general high school in a county town.

But this is Yuezhou, which is several provinces away.

"Li...Xintong?"

Chen Wang stared at the other person with a frown, and spoke slowly, word by word.

The girl who was recognized showed a flash of surprise in her eyes.

But then, it was replaced by that sweet smile, eyes slightly closed, and said gently: "Yes, old classmate."

“What the hell!” Gui Jiahao was completely stunned. “No wonder it feels familiar… Wow, it’s really you!”

Now, everyone was eating the big melon.

The two singing beauties also looked over with interest, too lazy to refuse the bosses' hands on their crotches. They were old classmates, and after many years, they met in a foreign land, and in such an ambiguous occasion.

But the one who was most shocked was Chen Wang.

He was in a trance for a moment when he said the name and received a positive answer.

Her name is Li Xintong.

But, would Li Xintong smile like this at that time?
It was even said that Chen Wang had never seen her smile at the boys in the class once.

He always has a cold face, keeping people at a distance.

With that face, even the most damned and repressed teenage boys would be too embarrassed to harass her, as they always felt that she would run to the head teacher's office to complain in the next second.

"Are you a big boss now?"

Seeing that Chen Wang was silent for a long time, she took the initiative to ask.

"……Okay."

Everyone can see that Chen Wang is not in the right state, so no one wants to talk nonsense in such occasions.

"Why didn't you come to school at that time?" Gui Jiahao asked curiously, "You are one of the few in our class who has the hope of being admitted to university."

"Now, if we don't talk about junior college, it is also a university?" Chen Wang said absentmindedly.

"… you're so fucking stupid."

"Me? I dropped out of school." Li Xintong smiled casually when talking about this, and cast a joking look at Chen Wang, "My gambling dad, my sick mom, my school-age sister, and my broken self. Do you want to know more?"

"It's, it's okay." Chen Wang avoided the question and lowered his head to light a cigarette, "I dropped out of school later..."

Before he could finish, Li Xintong took the cigarette from his hand, put it in her soft lips, lit it and took a light puff, then pinched the cigarette butt and put it to Chen Wang's mouth.

The slightly sweet lipstick on the lips makes the original smell of cigarette tasteless.

When Chen Wang was obviously absent-minded smoking, Li Xintong tilted her head to observe him, and then said with some emotion: "Chen Wang, you are still the same as before."

Chen Wang looked at her slowly.

Then, Li Xintong said lovingly, "Just like before, dumb."

……cough!

It was like a young smoker smoking a cigar for the first time. The puff of smoke went straight into his throat and almost killed Chen Wang on the spot.

"My lungs are so strong..."

Gui Jiahao on the side couldn't help but complain.

"Go to the bathroom."

Chen Wang still did not respond to her enthusiasm with the same degree. After putting out the cigarette in the ashtray, he stood up and left the private room.

After he left, the atmosphere became tense.

Then, the Mediterranean boss smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, is there a story behind this?"

"Did you ever fall in love with him when you were in school?" a hostess asked with a smile.

"Just kidding." Gui Jiahao said happily, "She was our class beauty back then. Which boy in the class didn't like her?"

"He doesn't like Chen Wang." Li Xintong pursed her lips and complained, "Didn't he pursue An Jiani at the time? He was so romantic and even wrote love letters."

"You are young and ignorant."

"Then he..." Li Xintong looked towards the door and asked with some concern, "Is he okay?"

"It's okay, he's just drunk. He's still very happy to see you."

"Really?" Li Xintong's smile gradually faded, and she murmured, "Why don't you look happy..."

.........

Leaning against the sink, Chen Wang looked at himself in the mirror.

Still the same dull look as before.

How can this be seen as the same as before?
It was probably because Haozi mentioned 'Jiangchuan' that she recognized me.

But after more than ten years, she still remembers the name Chen Wang.

"I didn't realize how pure you were before. How come you are speechless when you see Li Xintong?" Haozi came over from behind and patted him on the shoulder.

Chen Wang turned around and shook his head: "You don't understand."

"I don't understand what that is?" Gui Jiahao retorted, "In the final analysis, I just like her."

Chen Wang did not respond directly, and then said: "When I was a child, I rode in my cousin's Boulevard once, and then I thought it was the coolest car in the world. Although now it looks like a broken Buick. But when you see this car again, what do you think I am thinking?"

"..." Gui Jiahao thought for a moment and said, "Is the old car still easy to drive?"

"..."

"Although Li Xintong doesn't look like those eighteen or nineteen-year-old girls, she's not an old car, right?"

"never mind."

With his hands in his pockets, Chen Wang leaned against the wall and looked up. Thinking of Li Xintong's current smile that showed her value, he felt even more depressed. "She used to be liked by all the boys in the class. I could brag about her if I said a few words to her. I haven't seen her for many years, and now I've picked her out in Shang K? This feeling can't be happiness, don't you understand?"

"Well... I don't understand it very deeply." After thinking for a while, Gui Jiahao raised his head and asked, "But do you want to sleep with her?"

"..." Chen Wang was speechless, "That's not what I'm talking about now..."

"Isn't that right?"

"..."

Chen Wang turned his head and remained silent for a long time.

Then, nodded.

"We are brothers, why are you pretending to be a fool in front of me?"

Gui Jiahao laughed, and then said: "Although the store marketing said that she only accompanied customers for drinks and never went out with customers, you are old classmates, and now you are so successful. Give her some wine, soothe her wounded soul, and then take her to the hotel. Everything will be natural..."

"But dear that's not love!"

The big brother in the next room suddenly started singing at the top of his lungs with a crying voice, causing the two of them to fall into a brief silence.

"..."

Gui Jiahao had finally managed to coax Chen Wang into submission, but was suddenly thrown into disarray.

"But, then again, what about love..."

"I'm fine." Chen Wang smiled as if relieved, then patted his shoulder, "You go back first, I'll be right there."

"Okay, come back soon and stop being sad."

"Ah."

Chen Wang knew why he was being pretentious.

What is more lethal than the white moonlight is the rotten white moonlight.

Of course, after so many years in the industry, the once innocent boy has now become a useless person and is no longer qualified to criticize other people’s lives.

He was just regretting why, after having everything, he had to meet his old friend in such a place?

However, during their youth when both of them were good at playing, they had no interaction at all.

There's no way there could be any story.

After all, there is still the memory of that shame.

Thinking of this, Chen Wang smiled sadly and prepared to return to the private room.

At this time, a phone call came.

"Hey, mom, what's going on? It's a bit noisy here, I can't hear you clearly..."

"Wait a minute."

"I'll call you when I get out."

"Mr. Chen, be careful on the stairs when you go downstairs...Mr. Chen!!!"

"..."

.........

Chen Wang felt like he had slept for a long time.

There was a vibrating sound in my ears, dong dong.

As I woke up, I felt numbness in my arms, which were so stiff that they seemed to not belong to me.

Open your eyes slowly.

The blurred vision gradually became clear.

In front of him stood a girl in a blue and white school uniform and a high ponytail, looking at him expressionlessly.

After waking up Chen Wang by tapping the table with her fingers, she said, "The head teacher wants you to come over now."

The sound was very clear, but Chen Wang didn't feel it was real at all.

So naturally, she didn't listen to what he said.

He still stared at her blankly, then asked uncertainly: "Li Xintong?"

Li Xintong was stunned when her name was suddenly called, and showed a confused expression: "?"

The students around all looked over, their eyes focused on Chen Wang, who was behaving strangely.

"How can you still sleep at this hour?" At this moment, Gui Jiahao suddenly came over, put his arm around his shoulders, and said with a smile, "Old Jiang is pissed off by you."

Haozi…young Gui Jiahao.

And also, the young Li Xintong.

There were more than 50 desks, more crowded than a sleeper berth on a train, with supplementary teaching materials piled up like a mountain on the desks, and an iron fan overhead that seemed like it would fall down at any moment...

Where did this fucking take me?!

"What did Chen Wang do? Why did Lao Jiang call him?"

"I heard that he wrote a love letter to An Jiani."

"Ah? How did Lao Jiang know that?"

"An Jiani handed the love letter directly to the teacher that day."

The pictures in my memory are becoming more and more familiar.

Remembered it all.

Am I reborn?

But why was I reborn on the most stupid day of my life!
I'm Back.
(Note: I am Baik)
