Three years after our breakup, you came back to China, and I'm just giving up. Why are you cryi

Lu Hao ignored him, picked up another can of beer, drank it all in one gulp, then took out a cigarette case from his pocket, lit a cigarette.

His breath, heavy with sorrow, blurred his vision, making it impossible for him to see the world clearly.

"Are you really going to be so heartless?" Qin Shou, who had been watching from the sidelines for a long time, finally spoke.

Lu Hao glanced at him and smiled, "You little rascal, you caught me off guard."

"I just feel that you shouldn't have come to this." Qin Shou sighed and shook his head helplessly.

Lu Hao ignored him, took a drag on his own, and lay limply on the sofa, squinting at the laser lights on the ceiling.

In a daze, he saw a figure in a white floral dress running towards him.

But when the woman in the white floral dress fell into his arms, she transformed into a figure in a long red dress.

wrong!

The soft touch in his arms and the somewhat familiar fragrance in his nostrils brought Lu Hao back to his senses.

He looked down and discovered that there was indeed a delicate body in his arms.

"You..." Lu Hao was about to speak when the delicate body in his arms looked up, revealing herself to be the woman he had spent the night with last night.

Lu Hao frowned slightly. Was he being framed?

Normally, the women he flirted with at the bar rarely had a second encounter; after all, they would all go home when dawn broke.

Even if someone wants to reminisce about his feelings, Lu Hao will pretend to be meeting them all over again for the first time.

But this was the first time he had ever seen a woman throw herself into his arms like this.

"Beautiful lady, do we know each other?" Lu Hao steadied himself and pulled the woman in his arms up.

"Zhao Ritian, you bastard, you're heartless!" The woman's eyes flashed with anger.

She didn't expect Lu Hao to pretend he didn't know her.

Lu Hao remained expressionless. Zhao Ritian was the pseudonym he had given to the woman last night.

"Beautiful lady, although you are pretty, you can't just slander people like that. I've never met you before, and my name isn't Zhao Ritian. You've definitely mistaken me for someone else," Lu Hao said seriously, his tone firm and forceful.

He then abruptly changed his tone, saying, "But if you're going to use that as an excuse to strike up a conversation with me, I don't mind. How about we grab a drink?"

"Pah...scumbag!" The woman picked up a wine glass from the table, splashed it at Lu Hao, and angrily turned and left.

Lu Hao wiped the beer off his face, not paying any attention to the woman's excessive behavior.

Qin Shou handed over a few tissues and said helplessly, "Old Lu, you'll get into trouble sooner or later if you keep going like this."

"If something really happens, remember to use my ashes as bait; it will definitely help you catch a big fish."

Qin Shou felt truly helpless in the face of Lu Hao's self-deprecating humor.

"By the way, Jiang Yun and I are getting married. We can set a date once the wedding planning company gives us their proposal."

Lu Hao was somewhat surprised to hear Qin Shou's words.

Jiang Yun is the daughter of one of the shareholders of Qin Shou Company, so she can be considered to have climbed the social ladder.

After two and a half years of dating, the couple has finally tied the knot and entered the hall of marriage.

"Congratulations! Do you need me to be your best man?" Lu Hao joked with a smile.

"Of course, you're my best brother."

"Okay, no matter how much alcohol comes, I'll take it all for you."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

When I left Mochou Bar, the night was already deep and the darkness seemed endless.

The bright moon hanging in the sky had somehow disappeared behind the dark clouds.

A bolt of lightning cleaved the dark night sky in the distance, followed by a thunderclap.

"It's going to rain, let me take you home." Qin Shou walked up to Lu Hao with a designated driver.

Lu Hao did not refuse and followed Qin Shou into the Sagitar he had just bought a month ago.

"A new car is so nice," Lu Hao said, sitting in the back seat and looking around. "What about your old one? You didn't put the sunflower seeds on it, did you?"

"No, it's at home. I drive it occasionally." Qin Shou settled into the passenger seat, turned to look at Lu Hao, and asked, "Take it if you want to drive it."

"No, I don't have money for gas." Lu Hao waved his hand.

"Actually... you should start saving some money." Qin Shou sighed. "With a monthly salary of six thousand, not including commission, you can easily earn over ten thousand a month if you work hard. And you could also consider settling down in this city. If you don't have enough for a down payment, I can lend you some..."

Faced with Qin Shou's nagging, Lu Hao closed his eyes and ignored him.

Home? That was something so distant to him that he had never even considered it.

Just like Su Yu said tonight, she is just a rootless stray dog.

There's an old saying that Lu Hao thinks perfectly describes his current situation.

I used to think this city was trapping my future, but now I realize it's this city that's sheltering my mediocrity.

...

Back in the rented room, I could hear the sounds of washing up coming from the bathroom. In the two adjacent rooms, one door was open, and the other was closed.

Lu Hao knew that his other roommate was already resting.

He sat down on the sofa, took out a cigarette, lit it, and slumped back, letting the smoke swirl around his eyes.

With a creak, the bathroom door opened, and a woman wrapped in a bath towel walked out.

Water droplets from her hair fell onto her rounded, fragrant shoulders, gleaming alluringly under the light.

Zhou Mengmeng is one of Lu Hao's roommates.

When she saw Lu Hao slumped on the sofa, her eyes widened in surprise. "Wow, what's going on today? It's only ten o'clock and you've already blew our nightclub prince back?"

Lu Hao waved away the smoke swirling around his eyes, looked down at Zhou Mengmeng who had walked over and sat down beside him, and smiled, "I just missed you."

"Tch, you just want my body, don't you?" Zhou Mengmeng glared at Lu Hao with disdain.

Lu Hao touched his nose and did not answer her question.

The two first crossed paths two years ago on a rainy night. Zhou Mengmeng had just broken up with her boyfriend and, heartbroken, dragged Lu Hao out for drinks.

They were all adults, and after drinking a few cups of horse urine, they naturally moved on to the next stage.

However, after waking up, Zhou Mengmeng decisively said that the night was just an accident.

At first, Lu Hao felt a little guilty, after all, in his mind, Zhou Mengmeng was different from the kind of women who would pick him up in bars.

But after Zhou Mengmeng's guidance, he gradually came to terms with it.

The two occasionally experienced some unexpected events, but they maintained a friendship in their daily interactions.

In Zhou Mengmeng's words, "Once we both find our other half, we'll disappear from each other's worlds."

Lu Hao felt that Zhou Mengmeng deserved half the credit for his current carefree attitude.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Lu Hao didn't make any advances towards her, but instead got up and walked towards the bathroom.

He didn't sleep well last night, having been busy until midnight and then busy all day. Now all he wants to do is wash up and get some rest.

"By the way, Lu Hao, I'm going on a blind date tomorrow, and I might succeed..." Zhou Mengmeng's voice rang out from behind.

Lu Hao paused, but didn't turn around. Instead, he said softly, "Well... I wish you success."

"You..." Zhou Mengmeng looked at Lu Hao's retreating figure, opened her mouth, and said, "Want tonight?"
