After four years of living alone after marrying far away, he went back to his parents' home and

Lan Yujuan lowered her head and stared intently at her phone screen, her thumb flying across the screen.

At the same time, she could also sense that after the man hung up the phone, he slowly walked into the small octagonal pavilion.

Then he sat down quietly opposite her, leaning against the railing in a daze.

"What are you writing?" the man sitting opposite suddenly asked.

Lan Yujuan paused, a hint of doubt in her mind: Was he talking to her?

She raised her head slightly and glanced at it out of the corner of her eye.

The other person wasn't looking at me; they were also staring at their phone.

Lan Yujuan thought about it for a moment. She had greeted him earlier, but he ignored her completely, as if he hadn't seen her at all.

Forget it, stop being so presumptuous!

Nine times out of ten, he was holding his phone and having a voice chat with a friend.

With that in mind, Lan Yujuan continued working, planning to finish quickly and then pack up to go home.

Silence returned to the octagonal pavilion once again.

All that remained were the clicking sounds of Lan Yujuan typing on her phone and the lingering smell of alcohol in the air.

She was puzzled. How much had this man drunk tonight?

Was he pulled out of the wine vat after falling in?

Finally, Lan Yujuan put away her phone and prepared to leave.

She was hesitating whether she should say goodbye to the other person before leaving.

After all, in this vast sea of ​​people, the probability of two completely unrelated people meeting again is almost zero.

But the other party did indeed help her a lot on her way to secretly take her daughter back to her parents' home!

Thinking of this, she finally mustered her courage and took the initiative to break the ice:

"Chen Mo, thank you so much for what happened last time!"

The only response she received was the man's deep, long breaths.

Good guy!

In just a short while, he actually fell asleep while holding his phone and leaning against the railing.

"Chen Mo, Chen Mo?" Lan Yujuan leaned closer and called out softly twice.

Perhaps because he was drunk, the man was sleeping quite soundly!

Lan Yujuan thought for a moment, and since it wasn't cold in the little garden anyway, she decided to let him rest there for a while.

She'll talk to the waiter later and ask them to check which room it is and make sure they take extra care of it.

Before leaving, Lan Yujuan gently took his phone and put it back in his pocket.

She was about to leave when, unexpectedly, something startled him. Chen Mo suddenly raised his hand and grabbed her wrist tightly.

Lan Yujuan was startled and almost cried out.

"You...you're awake?"

Chen Mo raised his eyelids slightly, squinted at her, and his eyes were clearly tinged with a hazy, drunken state.

"You...you keep coming into my dreams, what do you want?"

Lan Yujuan looked completely bewildered, her heart pounding wildly. What on earth was he talking about in his drunken stupor?

"You, you let go of me!"

Lan Yujuan struggled to pry his fingers open, her face flushed as she explained, "I put your phone in your pocket for you."

However, the other person's large hand gripping her wrist was incredibly strong, and she couldn't pry it off no matter how hard she tried.

Finally, through her persistent efforts, the other person let go and closed their eyes to sleep once again.

Lan Yujuan quickly turned and ran away, not daring to look back.

Drunkards are really scary; who knows what kind of bastards they might do when they're drunk?

However, after returning to the private room, Lan Yujuan did not forget to first ask the waiter for help to find someone to go and keep an eye on things.

After she finished giving her instructions, she packed her things and prepared to leave. Li Rui's game had already ended long ago.

The two got up to say goodbye to everyone, and casually asked who would share the cost of the gathering.

As it turned out, Liu Qian returned just then, and said in a sarcastic tone:

"Lan Yujuan, you two are so capable, you definitely wouldn't want to let others treat you, right?"

"Let's round it down to zero, so each of you will give A5000 yuan! The rest of you don't need to pay A, it's on me tonight!"

After Liu Qian finished speaking, she placed the pre-printed expense list in front of the two of them.

Before the two could react, the other students had already started clapping and cheering:

"Liu Qian, then we won't be polite! Hehe!"

"Thank you, beautiful Liu!"

"General Manager Liu is awesome!"

The praise came in waves.

Lan Yujuan was no longer willing to argue; from the moment she entered the restaurant, she was prepared to bleed a lot of money.

"What the hell!"

"I only ate a few bites of fish and drank two bowls of soup tonight, and you dare to give me an A5000?"

"I want to see exactly how this is settled!"

Li Rui was furious. He immediately picked up the bill, but his expression changed after just one glance.

"Liu Qian, have you no shame?"

"You've done all the good work, but you expect us to split the cost?"

"The room fee, meal cost, and service charge, when averaged out, came to less than 1500 yuan; the rest was all drinks!"

"Lan Yujuan and I didn't bring any family members, and we didn't drink a drop of alcohol. How can you have the nerve to ask us to split the bill?"

Liu Qian was pressed face-to-face, and her expression showed she was somewhat overwhelmed.

"We agreed to split the bill, so let's just divide it equally!"

"Nobody said you couldn't bring your family. Nobody said you two couldn't drink, right?"

Li Rui was furious and rushed forward, ready to attack.

Lan Yujuan quickly stopped the person and said bluntly:

"In that case, let's get six more bottles of Moutai. Li Rui and I will each drink three and split the cost!"

As she spoke, she winked at Li Rui.

Li Rui instantly understood, immediately stopped joking, and excitedly said:

"Six bottles aren't enough! Waiter, for each of us students, bring us three more bottles!"

"It's okay if you can't finish it, we can pack it up!"

"Lan Yujuan, I'll cover your share for today!"

It's just splitting the bill, isn't it? Didn't Liu Qian want to treat everyone?

If the two of them split the bill, Liu Qian will have to split it dozens of times! If they each have an extra 10,000, Liu Qian will have an extra 200,000 to 300,000!

Anyone can be a good person. You want them to bleed themselves dry? Hmph, then Liu Qian won't have it easy either!

As long as the Moutai is unopened, you can get a refund later, and your money will be returned.

But Liu Qian is different. It's not right to ask for things back one by one after giving them away, is it?
