Chapter 98 Zhang Wei, courtesy name Yida
"sorry."

Xu Kaiyang reluctantly apologized.

Ma Siyi, holding a recording pen, earnestly warned:
"louder!"

With pleading eyes wide open beside him, Xu Kaiyang could only muster all his strength to shout:
"sorry!!"

This shout startled the boss, who rushed over upon hearing the commotion.

He originally came to be a peacemaker, but ended up apologizing?
Just then, a voice that seemed to thrive on chaos rang out.

"If apologies were effective, what would be the point of having Uncle Hat?"

After Yang Muyi finished speaking, he turned to look at Ma Siyi and said, "Let's just call the police."

Xu Kaiyang, Zhang Kai, Chen Xiaozheng, and the bar owner were all dumbfounded.

Dude, you think things haven't gotten big enough already?
The bar owner recognized Xiao He standing to the side and immediately looked at her with pleading eyes.

"Muye, Siyi, it's not worth making Uncle Hat make a trip for such a small matter. They've already apologized, so why don't we just let it go?" Xiaohe suggested.

Chen Xiaozheng and Zhang Kai both stared expectantly in this direction, waiting for Yang Muye to speak.

"Alright, for your sake, I'll let this matter rest."

After Yang Muye finished speaking, he sat down.

Ma Siyi also put away her recorder and sat down.

Seeing this, Zhang Kai and Chen Xiaozheng quickly pulled Xu Kaiyang back to the next table to sit down.

I was definitely not in the mood for drinking anymore, but leaving immediately would seem too awkward.

Chen Xiaozheng and Zhang Kai are easy to talk to, but Xu Kaiyang can't afford to lose face.

The bar owner exchanged a few pleasantries with Xiao He and gave him a fruit platter before leaving.

At the table, Ma Siyi lowered her head, like a child who had done something wrong: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to record you."

While texting on his phone, Yang Muyi nodded and said, "It's understandable for girls to be concerned about their appearance when going out."

At the same time, I silently added in my mind:
I've already texted you to ask for more players, I hope you can understand.

the other side.

Xia Fenghua had just left a bar with Xie Wanghe when she suddenly received a text message on her phone.

Xie Wanghe took a few steps forward and realized that Xia Fenghua hadn't followed. He turned around and saw Xia Fenghua holding her phone in both hands, standing there blankly.

"Are you leaving or not? You're dawdling."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Fenghua suddenly turned around and ran back.

Xie Wanghe shouted, "Hey, what's wrong with you!"

Xia Fenghua turned around, and one sentence from her made Xie Wanghe's expression change drastically.

"I have news about Siyi! She's at the first bar we just went to!"

In the bar.

Zhang Kai glanced at Xu Kaiyang, who was sitting there sulking, and kicked Chen Xiaozheng next to him.

Chen Xiaozheng understood and picked up the wine bottle.

"Kaiyang, what just happened is over. I thank you for controlling your emotions and not making a big deal out of it. I'll toast you with this glass."

After saying that, he picked up the bottle and took two sips at a time.

Zhang Kai clapped and cheered from the side, trying to liven up the atmosphere.

As a result, Xu Kaiyang sat there and completely ignored the two of them.

He was the one forced to apologize, and he was the one who lost face.

Xu Kaiyang had never been treated like this before!
Chen Xiaozheng put down the wine bottle and shrugged to indicate that he had done his best.

He opened his eyes, rolled them around, and had an idea.

He glanced back at the next table before lowering his voice: "Old Xu, you were really stupid just now. Who introduces themselves right away when trying to chat up a girl? It's like holding up your ID card and telling her you're going to harass her."

Xu Kaiyang looked over with displeasure.

You think you're qualified to teach me how to do things?
And whose side are you on, anyway?

Zhang Kai quickly explained, "What I mean is, even if you want revenge, you should at least find out more about the other party first, right?"

Xu Kaiyang's expression then improved.

Seeing this, Zhang Kai gave Xu Kaiyang a smug wink.

Watch me!
He opened a bottle of wine and went to the next table with a big smile on his face.

"Hey guys, I'm really sorry about that. My friend had a sharp tongue. Thank goodness you guys are all so forgiving. I'll go first, you guys can have whatever you want."

After saying that, he picked up the bottle, tilted his head back, and gulped down the entire bottle of beer in a few big gulps.

I expected cheers, but instead, there was a cold reception.

Yang Muye and the other two just stared at him like he was an idiot.

Feeling embarrassed, Zhang Kai quickly tried to save face: "The three of us are all second-year students in the art college. Judging from your appearance, you are also students of Yan Economics and Trade College, right?"

Even Xiaohe couldn't stand such a clumsy performance, so she turned around and looked at Zhang Kai.

"You want to find out about the three of us so you can get revenge later, right?"

Zhang Kai waved his hands repeatedly, forcing a smile onto his face.

"No, no, how could that be!"

Yang Muye raised his head.

"My name is Zhang Wei, and I am a freshman in the law school."

Upon hearing this, Xiao He and Ma Siyi's expressions both became somewhat strange.

Zhang Kai, however, failed to notice this and continued to pretend to be a genuine friend.

"So you're a junior from the law school. We even share the same surname. It's true what they say, 'No fight, no friendship'."

As he spoke, he extended both hands, wanting to shake hands with Yang Muye.

Yang Muye ignored him.

Zhang Kai was feeling awkward when Yang Muye suddenly spoke up.

"Do you know about the whistleblower letter that was posted in front of the teaching building this morning?"

"I know."

"Did you know that this was exposed by one of our law school professors? I'm not saying this for any other reason than to tell you that law school students are never afraid of trouble. If you're not convinced, you can try me!"

Zhang Kai's smile froze instantly.

After hearing Yang Muyi's words, Zhang Kai really felt it was best not to provoke them.

Why don't we go back and persuade Xu Kaiyang to give up?
Just as they were having second thoughts, a figure suddenly rushed over from the side.

As a row of tables and chairs were pushed over, Zhang Kai was forcefully shoved to the ground.

He was still completely dazed at that moment.

Xie Wanghe, like a mad beast, gripped his open collar tightly with both hands.

Realizing he had been ambushed, he struggled and cursed, "Who the hell are you! Do we know each other?"

Xie Wanghe pressed down hard on Zhang Kai, his eyes bloodshot as if he had seen his father's killer: "When I came in, I saw you harassing girls. You think being a hooligan is so great?"

"No, which eye of yours saw me harassing girls?" Zhang Kai shouted, protesting his innocence.

"Xie Wanghe, stop!"

Xia Fenghua screamed and chased after him, desperately trying to pull Xie Wanghe away from Zhang Kai.

Finally, Chen Xiaozheng and Xu Kaiyang from the next table came over to help and separated Zhang Kai and Xie Wang, who were already fighting.

At this moment, Ma Siyi covered her mouth with her hand and stood up from her seat.

His face was full of disbelief.

"Feng Hua?"

Xia Fenghua turned around and froze when she saw Ma Siyi.

The next second, tears blurred my vision.

"Siyi, is it really you?"

Xia Fenghua's tearful cry broke Ma Siyi's composure on the spot.

Before Ma Siyi's tears could even stream down her face, Xia Fenghua rushed over and hugged her tightly. "Where have you been these past few months? We texted and called you, searched everywhere for you, we were so worried!"

"If anything were to happen to you, would you want us, the neighbors on Flower Street, to feel guilty for the rest of our lives?"

Hearing Xia Fenghua's sobbing, Ma Siyi's voice also choked with emotion.

"I'm sorry, I—"

“I know you want to stay far away from your mother and stop her from sucking your blood, but you can’t just leave without saying a word. We can work together to find a solution to any difficulties you may have.”

The two women became increasingly upset as they talked, and finally they hugged each other and cried.

Everyone present was somewhat at a loss when they saw this scene.

The commotion was so great that even Hu Youyu ran off the stage with his guitar.

"What happened?"

Seeing the bar owner arrive with two waiters, he brazenly raised both hands and said, "Let me make it clear first, their crying has absolutely nothing to do with me. I was just inexplicably pushed to the ground and beaten up. I'm a victim too!"

Xie Wanghe immediately took out his phone, startled, and rushed forward, grabbing Xie Wanghe's hand.

"Dude, are you really going to call the police?"

Xie Wanghe was too lazy to waste words.

"release."

When the soft approach failed, he immediately became firm.

"Fine, call the police then. Let's see if Uncle Hat comes and arrests me or you. Everyone can testify that he was the one who started it."

Xie Wanghe pressed the dial button and held the phone to his ear.

"Hey, Dad."

Zhang Kai was dumbfounded.

Are Xie Wang and his father the "Hat Uncles"?

Wait, this kid didn't even call the police; he got scammed!

Okay, okay, if you can't beat them, you call your parents, right?
"Son, why are you calling now? Is something wrong?" His father's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

Xie Wanghe was about to tell his father about finding Ma Siyi and ask him to inform the neighbors in Huajie.

Ma Siyi looked over with teary eyes, shaking her head repeatedly at Xie Wanghe.

Xie Wanghe's words were all stuck in his throat.

He understood what Ma Siyi meant.

"Son, what happened? Why aren't you saying anything?"

"It's nothing, I just suddenly missed you and wanted to call you."

"You child, didn't you just call your mother during the day?" the father complained on the other end of the line.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to hear your voices. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

After hanging up the phone, Xie Wanghe looked at Ma Siyi, who was still wiping away tears, and hesitated to speak.

I have so much to say, but I don't know where to begin.

On the contrary, Xia Fenghua had completely calmed down by now. After wiping away her tears, she quickly picked up the tables and chairs that Xie Wanghe and Zhang Kai had knocked over during their fight. Then she kept apologizing to the bar owner and begging him not to call the police, saying that she could compensate for the damages.

Seeing that nothing had been broken and noticing that Xiao He was subtly winking at him, the bar owner waved his hand and said that he didn't need to pay for it.

After thanking her boss profusely, Xia Fenghua prepared to apologize to Zhang Kai on Xie Wanghe's behalf.

Xie Wanghe grabbed Xia Fenghua.

"What are you doing?"

"You misunderstood someone and even pushed them down. Shouldn't you apologize?"

Zhang Kai was about to repeat Yang Muye's earlier line, "If apologies were useful, what would we need Uncle Hat for?" when he caught a glimpse of Yang Muye looking at him with a half-smile.

I suddenly felt like I'd been caught red-handed stealing something.

With this delay, Xia Fenghua had already walked up to him.

"I'm sorry, classmate, my friend acted impulsively and misunderstood you."

Looking at Xia Fenghua's sincere expression, he opened his mouth and moved it, finally letting out two dry laughs.

"Fine, I guess I'm just unlucky. I came here to drink and apologize to someone, and I ended up getting hurt in the process."

Xia Fenghua clasped her hands together and said, "I'm really sorry."

Zhang Kai turned to look at Xu Kaiyang and Chen Xiaozheng: "Are you two leaving or not?"

He tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead; in any case, he was too ashamed to stay any longer.

Xu Kaiyang and Chen Xiaozheng also didn't want to stay any longer, so they paid the bill and the three of them walked towards the door together.

Xiao He thanked the bar owner and then came back to invite Ma Siyi, Xia Fenghua, and Xie Wanghe to sit down together.

After obtaining permission from the bar owner, Hu Youyu decided not to go on stage to continue performing and instead sat down to drink with everyone.

Bar door.

The four girls looked at the sign at the entrance and discussed whether or not to choose this restaurant.

As soon as the English placement test was over, Zhu Xiaobei, dressed like a tomboy, suggested going outside the school to relax.

This move was supported by her two other roommates, Zheng Wei and Ruan Wan.

Zheng Wei is a beautiful girl with short, chin-length hair. She has the height of a mature woman, but the face of an adorable little girl.

The contrast is very eye-catching.

Ruan Wan was the prettiest girl in the dormitory and was chosen as the most beautiful girl in the art school as soon as she entered the school.

With Zhu Xiaobei included, all three agreed to go to the bar.

Despite her objections, Li Weijuan, who shared a dormitory room with the group, was dragged over by everyone.

Just as the four of them reached a consensus and were about to go inside, Xu Kaiyang, Zhang Kai, and Chen Xiaozheng came out of the bar.

Xu Kaiyang and Zhang Kai immediately recognized Zheng Wei as the girl they had helped carry their luggage on the day of school registration.

I live in dormitory 213, Building 3, Haitangyuan.

Most importantly, this girl shares a dorm room with Ruan Wan, the newly crowned beauty queen of the department.

The two looked behind Zheng Wei and, sure enough, saw the goddess they had been longing for.

Xu Kaiyang turned his head and warned Zhang Kai, "I saw it first this time."

Zhang Kai retorted without backing down: "Everyone gets a share; it's fair competition."

After saying that, the two of them stepped forward in unison and blocked Zheng Wei and her group's way.

"Junior, what a coincidence, you guys are also at this bar?"

Zheng Wei saw through their plan at a glance and gave them no friendly look: "It's quite a coincidence that you left right after we arrived. It seems we came to the right time and place today."

"Of course! We sat inside for ages and didn't see a single beautiful woman, but we ran into you guys as soon as we came out. It must be God's doing."

Xu Kaiyang was full of nonsense, and Zhang Kai nodded in agreement:

"Yes, yes, we just came out for some fresh air. We'll continue drinking when we get back."

Unfortunately, at this crucial moment, someone failed to deliver.

"You guys keep drinking, I'm going back to my dorm first."

After Chen Xiaozheng finished speaking, he left without looking back.

Xu Kaiyang and Zhang Kai wanted to curse, but they couldn't. They also had to think of a way to smooth things over.

Zheng smiled and waved to the two of them.

"Goodbye."

After saying that, he called Ruan Wan and the other two, and together they walked into the bar.

Xu Kaiyang and Zhang Kai exchanged a glance and quickly followed after him.

Upon entering the bar, one could see Yang Muyi, Hu Youyu, Ma Siyi, and Xiao He getting up and walking towards the stage.

Judging from their posture, they're getting ready to go on stage and perform.

Xu Kaiyang and Zhang Kaixin were originally focused on picking up girls, but when they saw this situation, they immediately felt that their chance for revenge had come.

If Yang Muyi and his three companions perform even slightly poorly, Xu Kaiyang and Zhang Kai have plenty of ways to embarrass them.
