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

The bar was bustling with music and dancing.

Pineapple Bro is treating, so everyone can order whatever they want to drink.

We ordered a few bottles of foreign liquor, but the alcohol content was too high. Few people present could handle drinking it straight, so it was usually mixed with soft drinks.

Mixing alcohol and beverages to make them taste good is actually a skill. Gao Zhe knew a little and wanted to show off his skills, but Pineapple Bro stopped him and gestured to a girl in a blue skirt next to him to mix it.

He also introduced, "This is Xiao Zhuo. She used to learn from a bartender and has some skills. Let her mix a few drinks for everyone to try."

Xiao Zhuo is a 70 or 80 out of 10 in looks, tall with long legs, but otherwise doesn't have anything particularly outstanding.

If Ye Yixian were as daring as her in dressing, wearing such a short skirt in the freezing cold, her figure might not be inferior to hers.

Xiao Zhuo stepped forward with a smile, arranged the wine glasses according to the number of people, and then brought out different wines and drinks, skillfully preparing them.

Judging from his technique, he clearly honed it by frequenting nightclubs.

She quickly prepared drinks for everyone, and even pushed two glasses in front of Ye Yixian and Wang Qingyu, smiling and saying, "Is this your first time here, little sisters? You probably don't drink much normally, so these two glasses are specially mixed for you. They're low in alcohol and won't hurt your throats."

These words, seemingly out of concern, actually contained a hidden sarcasm.

Ultimately, these girls who frequent nightclubs have an innate aversion, or rather, jealousy, towards naive female college students like Ye Yixian and Wang Qingyu.

If we compare a person to a blank sheet of paper, life is a continuous process of writing on it. Some people write down beautiful memories, paint beautiful scenery, and even create timeless classics; while others scribble carelessly, wantonly ruining it, leaving nothing meaningful behind.

It's easy for a piece of paper to get dirty, but it's difficult to get it clean again. Even if you rub it hard with an eraser, the marks are still clearly visible and difficult to remove.

In the eyes of Xiao Zhuo and her group of women, Ye Yixian and Wang Qingyu were too clean, so clean that they made them look dirty, which is why they felt repulsed by them.

Ye Yixian frowned, seemingly understanding the unspoken meaning behind the other person's words.

She didn't answer immediately, but looked at Lu Yuan instead.

Lu Yuan nodded slightly.

She understood, accepted it readily, and said, "Thank you. I'll go wherever Lu Yuan wants to go."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhuo's expression clearly changed, and the faces of the women next to him also darkened slightly.

However, they dared not make a scene and had to keep smiling, after all, Ye Yixian was Lu Yuan's girlfriend, and the host tonight, Pineapple Bro, called Lu Yuan "Brother Yuan".

With their status as powerful figures, the men serving drinks dared not show any temper.

Although Wang Qingyu didn't see things as clearly as Ye Yixian, she still sensed the rejection that Xiao Zhuo and the other women were giving them, so she unconsciously moved closer to Gao Zhe, seeking protection.

A woman's intuition is usually very accurate.

"Xiao Zhuo, if you're going to mix drinks, then mix drinks. Don't be so sarcastic towards Brother Yuan's woman." Pineapple Brother pulled Xiao Zhuo back directly.

Xiao Zhu looked displeased, probably because she felt that Pineapple Bro hadn't given her enough face in front of so many people.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan spoke up at the right time: "Kang, there are also people among young ladies. It's only natural that they have things to say when they meet for the first time. Don't take it seriously."

Lu Yuan didn't want to strain the relationship.

Although Pineapple Bro and his group don't mainly operate in Jiangcheng, they are still quite powerful, and it's not the best policy to have conflicts with them.

"Brother Yuan is right."

Pineapple Bro raised his glass, "Come on, everyone, let's have a toast! Wishing us all good health, all the best, and great wealth in the new year!"

"Come on, cheers!"

Lu Yuan also raised his glass.

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

Everyone responded enthusiastically. After clinking glasses, everyone except Ye Yixian and Wang Qingyu took small sips and downed their drinks in one gulp.

It has to be said that Xiao Zhuo is indeed an expert. The drinks he mixes are particularly smooth. They neither mask the taste of alcohol nor make it too pungent. He can achieve this taste with just a few common beverages. It is truly a unique skill.

If she went to work as a bartender, she would definitely be able to secure a place.

Lu Yuan praised Xiao Zhuo highly, and Xiao Zhuo's gaze towards Lu Yuan changed from indifference to joy, even with a hint of fervor.

Ye Yixian took a sip of the drink Xiao Zhu had mixed. She was certain that Xiao Zhu hadn't lied; she had indeed taken care of her and Wang Qingyu. Their two drinks were practically beverages. But unlike the single-flavored drinks on the market, they were layered, fragrant, and delicious.

For the rest of the time, Xiao Zhu basically acted as a full-time bartender, mixing several different kinds of drinks for everyone, each one of which was highly praised.

Even Ye Yixian and Wang Qingyu couldn't help but drink a few more cups.

With Lu Yuan and Gao Zhe by my side, I'm not afraid of getting drunk.

Besides Xiao Zhuo's bartending skills, Pineapple Bro's other friends also have their own unique talents.

There was a tall, thin man, whom everyone called Nine-Headed Insect, around thirty years old. At first, no one noticed him until later when they discovered that his right little finger was missing.

People were too embarrassed to ask why he hadn't won, but he took the initiative to show off his specialty: rolling dice.

He can roll whatever he wants from the dice in his bowl.

Gao Zhe didn't believe in superstitions and asked him to roll five sixes.

He shook it with one hand, opened the lid, and sure enough, there were five sixes.

Gao Zhe suspected that he had tampered with the lid when opening it, like Liu Qian performing magic, relying on his hand speed. So he asked him to shake it five more times until he got to the top. This time, after shaking it, he put it on the table and opened it himself.

The other party nodded and said it was no problem. They quickly shook it, placed it on the table, and gestured for Gao Zhe to "please".

When Gao Zhe opened it, there really were five threes.

"Holy crap! Bro, teach me, please teach me!"

Gao Zhe was so impressed that he immediately wanted to become his apprentice.

He thought that if he learned this trick, it would be hard to lose when playing dice with his buddies. At the very least, it would be great to show off in front of them.

The Nine-Headed Insect laughed, "Of course I can teach you if you want to learn, but..."

He raised his right hand, missing his little finger. "Learning this move comes at a price. Are you sure you want to learn it?"

Upon seeing this, Gao Zhe immediately chickened out, waving his hands repeatedly and saying he wouldn't learn anymore, which made everyone burst into laughter.

Later, Lu Yuan learned that the Nine-Headed Insect used to be "Thousand Hands".

How should we understand the profession of "thousand hands"?

He's someone who makes a living solely from gambling. He knows many cheating techniques; he started learning at age five, became a master at age twelve, and by age twenty-three, he had already earned a million dollars by cheating.

He didn't make money by gambling himself; instead, he acted as a gambler for the casino, only making his move in crucial games. Once he made a move, those who had won a large sum of money at the casino would always obediently give it back.

There are plenty of experts like him in casinos.

Therefore, it's said that nine out of ten gamblers are cheaters. Unless you really have so much money you don't know what to do with it, don't even think about gambling. Lu Yuan understood this well, which is why he always swore against gambling and drugs.

If the Nine-Headed Insect hadn't been greedy and been exposed by the even more powerful Thousand Hands, he wouldn't have lost that finger.

He no longer gambles and now does business with Pineapple Brother in Southeast Asia. He treats the gambling tricks he learned before as magic tricks to fool naive young girls.

Besides the Nine-Headed Insect, there was also a girl named Little Sparrow, in her early twenties, petite, only about 1.5 meters tall. She had a special skill: her tongue was exceptionally long and flexible, like a snake flicking its tongue.

Tonight she wore a low-cut dress and performed a "treasure hunt in the cleavage" trick, which involved putting a sunflower seed into her cleavage, bending down, sticking her tongue in, and taking it out.

The scene is too beautiful; use your imagination.

In addition, there is a bald man who knows Iron Head Kung Fu and is said to be from Shaolin Temple; there is a short man who can play with a butterfly comb (he can definitely also play with a butterfly knife; he looks harmless, but his background is probably not so clean).

They treated it as a New Year's performance for Lu Yuan and his group of young people.

It truly left everyone speechless, clapping and cheering, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

However, Lu Yuan knew in his heart that these people had complicated backgrounds and he was not entirely at ease with them.

So he used the excuse of going to the toilet to invite Pineapple Bro to come along, creating an opportunity for a private chat.
