You all chase after the innocent school beauty, then I'll choose the rebellious female school b

There are several bars in Jiangcheng, the most famous of which is the Riverside Bar. As the name suggests, it is located by the river and has a spacious venue, making it a great place to drink, dance, and have fun.

There are also several quiet bars that are suitable for sitting down, chatting and listening to music, but for Gao Zhe and his group of young people, quiet bars are obviously not the first choice.

Ye Yixian had never been to a bar. In her mind, those places were chaotic, not just because of the noise of people, but also because of the messy interpersonal relationships.

Lu Yuan can vouch for this; it's really a mess.

He once witnessed a young girl get drunk and lie down in the middle of the dance floor, and then a group of men surrounded her like wolves smelling blood and started groping her.

What happened next?

Lu Yuan wasn't sure either, but since no negative news had surfaced, the girl might actually be enjoying it.

In principle, Lu Yuan didn't want his girlfriend to go to that kind of place, but going with him was a different story.

When going out for entertainment, it's relatively safer to stay with trusted friends.

Tonight's host is Li Weikang, Lu Yuan and Gao Zhe's junior high school classmate. This guy dropped out of school after junior high and went to Southeast Asia to do business with relatives. He only comes back once a year, usually during the Chinese New Year.

He shaved his head into a buzz cut, but dyed it all yellow, so from a distance it looked like he had half a pineapple on his head, which is why everyone called him "Pineapple Bro".

Besides his iconic pineapple head, what's most eye-catching about him is the earrings covering his ears. Not just his earlobes, but almost his entire ear contours are adorned with earrings. Under the bar lights, those metal rings gleam and are very eye-catching.

However, it must be mentioned that he didn't look like this when he was in junior high school. Back then, he was quite thin, had a mushroom haircut, and although he was quite active, he was just playful and didn't have the fierce aura he has now.

In her previous life, Lu Yuan invited Xu Lingjing to his wedding. At the time, she knew he was doing business in Southeast Asia, though she didn't know exactly what he did, but she could tell he was making a lot of money. He even gave Lu Yuan a very generous wedding gift.

However, a year after Lu Yuan got married, he went to jail and was sentenced to more than 20 years.

He had a close relationship with Lu Yuan and Gao Zhe. Besides playing together in junior high school, another reason was that the two of them would share their breakfast with him.

The brotherhood of youth is so pure. A true brother is someone who's willing to break a bun in half and share it with you.

Lu Yuan and the other three drove over together. Ye Yixian was still wearing the same outfit she wore during the day, and she already looked very pretty; Wang Qingyu, on the other hand, was dressed fashionably, with her hair in two buns, going for a cute look.

The bar entrance was already crowded with people, and several tall men in suits were guarding the entrance, verifying the identities of everyone who came in.

Normally, we're not this strict; we accept almost everyone. But during the Chinese New Year period, the flow of customers is so large that it's impossible for everyone to rush in at once.

After talking to the man in the suit, I learned that the minimum charge for the riverside bar tonight was five thousand.

The purpose of setting this threshold is twofold: firstly, to control the number of people; if everyone were allowed in, there would be no way to save them in the event of a stampede.

Secondly, the bar has hired a band that is said to be somewhat famous to perform, and their appearance fee is not low. If there is no minimum spending requirement, the bar may not even be able to recoup the band's appearance fee.

Pineapple Bro had already reserved a booth in advance. Lu Yuan made a phone call to confirm the reservation, and the group entered the bar smoothly.

The music in the bar was deafening, a stylishly dressed band was putting on a great show on stage, and handsome men and beautiful women were dancing on the dance floor below.

The atmosphere here was completely different from elsewhere. Many girls were dressed quite boldly and revealingly, making Ye Yixian feel a little uncomfortable. She subconsciously tucked her down jacket under her coat and grabbed Lu Yuan's hand.

Lu Yuan smiled, leaned close to her ear and said, "Don't worry, they can do their thing, we'll do ours, just stay with me."

"good!"

Ye Yixian nodded, deliberately trying not to look like a complete novice.

It wasn't that she was afraid of anything, she just didn't like this kind of occasion; it was too noisy and chaotic, making her feel uncomfortable.

In contrast, Wang Qingyu didn't feel uncomfortable at all; on the contrary, she was a little excited and couldn't wait to drag Gao Zhe to the dance floor to dance.

Gao Zhe grabbed him and pulled him back, saying seriously, "Go see your friends first, you can play later."

……

When they met Pineapple Bro, Lu Yuan and Gao Zhe were quite surprised, mainly because the guy had changed so much.

"Brother Yuan! Brother Zhe!" Pineapple Brother was sitting next to two beautiful women in tank top dresses, chatting happily. But as soon as he saw Lu Yuan and the others arrive, he immediately forgot about the women, stood up to greet them, and excitedly said, "You guys are finally here! I've missed you so much!"

Lu Yuan and Gao Zhe smiled and shook hands and hugged him.

Lu Yuan sized him up and said, "Li Weikang, what's gotten into you? Why are you dressed so avant-garde? Won't your mother scold you for this?"

Pineapple Bro touched the pineapple head and laughed, "I told them, but there's nothing they can do about it. I send tens of thousands home every month, and all they can say is a few grumbles."

"Wow! Kang, you're doing so well now." Gao Zhe patted him on the shoulder and sighed.

Back then, Li Weikang didn't even have pocket money, and he couldn't afford the seventy-odd yuan breakfast fee. If Lu Yuan and Gao Zhe hadn't shared their breakfasts with him, he probably wouldn't have grown this tall.

He said he sends tens of thousands every month, which shouldn't be an exaggeration. Lu Yuan knew he had the ability; after all, he was doing a business where he could potentially end up in jail at any time. With such high risks, who would do it if the returns were low?

"Enough with the formalities." Pineapple Brother waved his hand, turned his gaze to Ye Yixian and Wang Qingyu, and asked with a smile, "These two are your partners, right?"

"Yes, this is my girlfriend, Ye Yixian," Lu Yuan said, putting his arm around Ye Yixian's waist.

Pineapple Bro looked Ye Yixian up and down, then gave him a thumbs up: "Brother Yuan, you have great taste. No wonder you've been chasing the school beauty for three years. Her temperament is unmatched, no ordinary girl can compare, simply not."

"Huh?"

Ye Yixian was taken aback and quickly explained, "I'm not that person."

Pineapple Bro and Lu Yuan have always kept in touch. He knows that Lu Yuan has been pursuing a school beauty at No. 1 High School since he went to high school. However, he has never met her in person, so he mistakenly believes that Ye Yixian is the person that Lu Yuan has been pursuing for three years.

"no?"

Pineapple Bro was also stunned, his expression somewhat embarrassed.

You praised the wrong person.

Will this affect the brothers' relationship?

He was getting anxious, but Lu Yuan said casually, "I stopped liking that person a long time ago. I like her now."

As he spoke, he tightened his grip on Ye Yixian's arm, pulling her even closer.

Ye Yixian felt the force and understood that Lu Yuan's words were not only explaining to Pineapple Brother, but also to her, to put her at ease.

She didn't care too much, after all, the outcome between her and Xu Lingjing was already decided.

Judging from Xu Lingjing's recent behavior, she seems to be intentionally keeping her distance from Lu Yuan, perhaps forcing herself to let go of him.

Gao Zhe then introduced Wang Qingyu, and after everyone got to know each other, they took their seats together.

Also present were several of Lu Yuan's junior high school classmates, as well as Pineapple Brother's friends from outside the community.

The women accompanying them were all heavily made up and dressed in flamboyant attire, making Ye Yixian and Wang Qingyu, two inexperienced female college students, seem like they were in a completely different style.

They're probably all secretly comparing who's prettier.
