C38 Amuse Each Other

In the spacious office, there were many decorations on the wooden shelves. The pearl curtain by the window was lowered, blocking the people outside the glass window from peeping in.

Anne, who was sitting at her desk, was rapidly tapping her fingers on her computer as she searched for work information. The screen of her phone, which was placed at the side, suddenly flashed. She took a glance at it.

"I've found a job."

With the simple five words, Anne could tell that it was Soong Qingnuan without even looking at her notes. Her simple and cold attitude made it seem like she was indifferent about everything else.

Anne saved the laptop and picked up her phone to call Soong Qingnuan. She had a gentle expression on her face and felt very happy for Soong Qingnuan.

Anne had been too busy working recently to take care of Soong Qingnuan's affairs, so she had heard a bit about Soong Qingnuan's current situation. Now that Soong Qingnuan had found a job, she felt happier than if she could get a big customer.

"Hey, Qingnuan, since you've found a job, should we invite you out to celebrate it?"

As soon as the call connected, Anne went straight to the point.

Her line of sight was glued to the computer Weibo for people to wear, secretly planning where they would be "romantic and happy" tonight.

"Where can we go? I might as well get ready at home. "

The familiar tone made Soong Qingnuan's mood a lot calmer. The sunlight shone down on her body, dispelling the few traces of chilliness on her body. Gu Qianbei's words echoed in her mind and she couldn't help but feel impatient.

"Tsk, unhappy? "Then go to the bar and wander around. Maybe you'll meet some pretty boys!"

Anne, who was just too familiar with Soong Qingnuan, understood her mood in a second and said that she would ask her out no matter what.

As long as Anne could finish writing the document tonight, she would be able to have a good time. After working for several days and nights, she would definitely not miss the chance to celebrate with her good friends.

"Qingnuan, I'm going to work first. I'll see you at the bar at 8 o'clock tonight!"

Before she could refuse, Soong Qingnuan could only hear the busy tone on the phone. She silently sighed. After calculating the time, she returned to her room to pack up. She forcefully urged herself to go out and meet Anne.

Inside the bar, bright neon lights hung high up in the air, giving off a confused feeling, and the electric sound that rang out in everyone's ears made them dance wildly in the middle of the stage.

The crowd outside the street rustled, but when they arrived, it became particularly lively, as if it was another heaven in the darkness.

Soong Qingnuan, who had arrived early, sat at the bar and ordered a bartender's drink. She played with the young man on the key in a bored manner. She was too lazy to strike up a conversation with others. Many of those who came close to her were rejected by her cold gaze and tone of voice.

"Phew, it's exactly eight o'clock. I'm really punctual!"

Before Anne could say anything, she heard Soong Qingnuan's voice, and when she looked back, Anne was sitting on a chair beside her, panting.

"A glass of plain water."

"What are you drinking water for, coming here for? Of course it's to celebrate with your favorite bottles of red wine!"

Anne had asked Soong Qingnuan to fan her with her hand. The moment she finished her sentence, Anne rejected her.

"Alright, serve the wine."

Helpless, Soong Qingnuan couldn't be bothered to argue with Anne. She didn't want to break the friendly atmosphere between the two of them. She raised her eyebrows slightly, preparing to look at Anne's drunk cat face.

The two teased each other from time to time. As the wine was being served, the two of them continued to drink each other's wine.

Under the influence of the alcohol, Soong Qingnuan's tensed state slightly relaxed.

She looked at Anne with a misty gaze. She put one hand on Anne's shoulder, looked around to make sure no one was nearby, then whispered in her ear, "Anne, do you think it's appropriate to marry someone you don't even like?"

As he spoke, he raised his goblet and gulped down the red wine within.

The spiciness of the wine made Soong Qingnuan slightly frown. She also heard Anne's slightly off answer.

"You're asking me? I don't think marriage and affection are the same. However, even though you look very cold, you don't look like that in your heart.

Anne, who was half-drunk, didn't notice Soong Qingnuan's mood. She just assumed it was just a casual guest between the two of them. She doesn't value love, she just wants to work hard.

Anne turned her face to look at Soong Qingnuan's cold face. She recalled the time when they had known each other and gave a slight smile.

Anne paused and took a sip of wine. For some reason, she felt that the more she drank, the more thirsty she became.

"If you want to get married yourself, that means you're wondering whether you're feeling anything about that person, too. Why do you think so much if you don't feel anything? If you want to find out more about your temper, then just ignore the other party. "

She bit the rim of her empty cup, faced Soong Qingnuan's puzzled expression, and thought for a while before giving her the most accurate answer.

"Is that right?" Soong Qingnuan put down the glass in her hand and looked at the reflection in the wall as she mumbled softly.

It was unknown if she was asking herself or Anne.

"It wasn't easy for me to solve the problem on my body and come out to have some fun. Isn't thinking too much just spoiling the atmosphere? "Come, cheers!"

Anne patted Soong Qingnuan's shoulder. Her muddle-headed head was like a broken string. She only wanted to play by herself and not be tortured by the hard work outside.

Soong Qingnuan nodded as if she couldn't figure it out. The two of them clinked their glasses as they continued to chat about the past, wiping away the unhappiness in their hearts.

When it was close to midnight, the atmosphere in the bar became even more lively. Many people wanted to jump onto the stage to fight for first place.

Anne, who was in a daze at the corner of the bar, wanted to take a look at the crowd. Her toes touched the ground, but before she could stand firmly, she was pushed forward.

It was fortunate that Soong Qingnuan, who was good at drinking, had given her a helping hand, preventing her from throwing her face to the ground.

"Qingnuan, there are so many people over there. Let's go take a look!"

Anne pointed at the stage as she stood steadily. Her face was flushed red as she fell on top of Soong Qingnuan in a drunken state. As she mumbled to herself, she even moved back and forth.

Soong Qingnuan, who couldn't bear the weight of the wine, leaned her body against the bar. She knew Anne would get even more excited after getting drunk than usual, so she shouldn't have followed her so much from the start!

"Did you sleep?"

Just as Soong Qingnuan was about to speak to comfort Anne, her phone vibrated. She took out a text message from Gu Qianbei.

Before Soong Qingnuan could type, Anne had already freed her hand. One of her feet slanted and she fell to the ground while muttering, "Dammit, why is the road so slippery? It couldn't be a bathroom, could it? "Then I want to take a bath!"

As soon as she said that, she undid the first button of her dress. Soong Qingnuan was so shocked that she immediately came over and helped her to a chair.

"Anne, this isn't the bathroom. Let's go home!"

Soong Qingnuan said as she picked up their bags. She was about to push Anne to leave, but she stopped her. She had no choice but to call Gu Qianbei.

"Mr. Gu, can I trouble you to come to NightScene and pick me up as a friend!" Soong Qingnuan pleaded coldly after the call.
