TSIBAMS Chapter 74

Chapter 74

1984 has attracted many people since updating its business model. Whether it’s boys’ night or girls’ night, it’s not as deserted as before.

Whether it’s because everyone registered with their real names or because everyone is the same gender, which makes people feel safe, this theme, unprecedented in Chen Town, has attracted a bunch of young men and women.

Especially girls.

It seems that the negative impact brought by the posts has been fully received and burned to ashes.

This surprised Boss Xu somewhat, “It’s because I haven’t seen the world, I’m still stuck in the era where going to a bar is equal to hooking up with the opposite sex.”

“Outdated!” Qi Guang leaned against the bar, “I thought you managed this bar quite well, but I didn’t know that young people nowadays just like to relax, take pictures…”

“And then post on Moments,” Bai Shu added.

“When the capital for this store comes back, I’ll open another one.” Brother Xu smiled, “Only for boys or only for girls.”

“Brother Xu?” Qi Guang nudged him with his arm, narrowing his eyes, “In the city, such bars are generally called gay bars.”

Brother Xu raised his eyebrows, twisting his neck a little unnaturally, “City people really know how to have fun!”

After speaking, he glanced at Bai Shu inadvertently.

Bai Shu didn’t speak, staring thoughtfully at the direction of the stage.

“By the way,” Qi Guang said, “What do you think about the band? Are you going to manage them?”

“No,” Brother Xu took a sip from his glass, “We didn’t sign an exclusive contract, we can’t manage them.”

“If Liao Le Bar plans to poach people and not let them come back, we’ll intervene,” Bai Shu added.

“No,” Brother Xu shook his head lightly, “It doesn’t matter if they leave, it’s not like we don’t have other bands. These bands were all scouted by me, they wouldn’t be known without our platform, I can make them famous, and I can make others famous. If they really want to leave, we won’t keep them.”

Qi Guang and Bai Shu looked at him, thinking that Brother Xu finally had the tough attitude of a boss, and felt a trace of relief. Unexpectedly, he then smiled and added, “Bye-bye, next one will be better.”

“Pfft!” Qi Guang almost spat out his beer, laughed and said, “That’s right! Since they like to imitate, then just let them have it!”

“Yeah, your Brother Xu is doing business honestly, never forcing sales,” Brother Xu patted his shoulder.

Bai Shu sighed, when Brother Xu was mixing on the streets before, he was more Buddhist than other gangsters. Although his reputation was bad, he never actively provoked trouble. And his bad reputation was only among teachers and parents of various schools. On this street, everyone in the underworld had to call him Brother.

Now it’s good, after starting a business, he’s directly a Buddhist to the end.

If it weren’t for Brother Xu’s legend on the streets and a group of brothers who would come when called, with this non-competitive business model, he would have been suppressed by various Liao Les to the point of suffocation.

Bai Shu took out his phone and tapped it, then put it in front of Brother Xu, “There’s good news, posted today.”

“Huh?” Brother Xu looked at the title, it was a post on the forum, the poster was the one who spread rumors last time.

It had a similar format to the last post that was full of nonsense, but this time it seemed to show some clarification. He flipped through it casually, and looked up at Qi Guang.

Qi Guang leaned over and took a look.

It was a fairly strong clarification and sincere apology, and he was quite stubborn, able to turn a blind eye to the pile of abuse in the follow-up posts.

“Congratulations, Brother Xu, for clearing your name!” Qi Guang clapped his hands.

Neither of the two in front of him spoke.

After a while, Brother Xu asked, “Did you go to him?”

“Yeah,” Qi Guang responded.

At this time, a few boys entered the door and were hovering at the check-in counter. Bai Shu took the stamp and walked over.

He first checked the ID cards of those people, and then stamped their wrists one by one. This was a bit different from ordinary ink stamps, it was fluorescent. You can’t see the color under natural light, but it is particularly eye-catching under the lights of the bar.

As the first bar in Chen Town to use fluorescent stamps, Brother Xu was more curious than anyone else, and stamped a row of 1984 on his arm, which looked like a string of passwords.

Qi Guang watched Bai Shu stamping people, and unconsciously turned his head to look at the code on Brother Xu’s hand again.

“What did you promise him?” Brother Xu shook his arm.

Qi Guang was stunned for a moment, then smiled slyly, “I told him, you messed with our boss here! If you want to live, apologize quickly.”

“Don’t try to fool me,” Brother Xu glared at him, “Your dad is a ruthless character. If you didn’t promise him something, would he apologize so obediently?”

“Brother Xu, you’ve become boring!” Qi Guang pulled a face.

“Quickly tell me!” Brother Xu shouted with a smile.

“It’s nothing, just promised to meet him once,” Qi Guang said.

He looked at the door in the distance, expressionless. After stamping the people who entered the door, Bai Shu did not come back immediately, but opened the door and went out.

“Did you make an appointment for a time and place?” Brother Xu asked.

“Not yet,” Qi Guang said.

Brother Xu glanced at him, “I’ll go with you then.”

“No need, Brother Xu,” Qi Guang shook his head, “I’ve already planned it.”

“Yo, you even have a plan! Sounds a little exciting? A Plan for a Feuding Family?” Brother Xu raised his glass and touched it with him.

“That’s right,” Qi Guang suddenly laughed, took a sip of wine, “A plan to seize the family fortune.”

“You kid!” Brother Xu saw that he still had the mood to joke, knowing that Qi Guang was not as anxious as last time, he also laughed.

After wiping the new bamboo mat clean and spreading it on the bed, and changing to a new summer quilt and quilt cover, Ye Xing opened the window to feel the summer night breeze for a while, and then took a deep breath.

Finally, he can fucking get a good night’s sleep!

Unfortunately, heaven doesn’t grant wishes, from the time he turned off the lights, the buzzing of mosquitoes in his ears didn’t stop. After experiencing slapping his thighs ten times, slapping his arms fifteen times, slapping his forehead and face twenty-one times, and slapping his ears countless times, he jumped out of bed violently.

“Fuck!” He quickly walked to the window and closed it, shouting, “I’d rather suffocate than feed you!”

Unfortunately, it was too late, the mosquitoes that were already in the room had already set up camp. Ye Xing lay on the bed, and became a human-shaped delicious feast again.

Being bitten by mosquitoes until he lost his temper, he picked up the phone on the bedside table and glanced at the time.

Half past twelve.

Being in love is a pretty magical thing, no matter what big or small things happen, you can’t help but report it to the other person.

Like now, he couldn’t help but open Qi Guang’s chat box and press a line of text.

-The mosquitoes here are quite tenacious!

Although he had said good night to him an hour ago, he was likely asleep at this time, but he just wanted to send him a message, not the kind that required an immediate reply.

Just when he was about to lock the screen after sending it, his eyes scanned and suddenly saw that the nickname at the top of the chat box had changed to “The other party is typing…”

Then the phone vibrated.

-There are too many plants downstairs at your house.

Ye Xing directly made a voice call, “Still not asleep?”

“No.” It was very quiet on Qi Guang’s side, probably because he hadn’t spoken for too long, his voice sounded a bit hoarse.

“You can’t be serious, right? So you’re not a natural academic, you’re so hardworking behind the scenes? What time is it?” Ye Xing turned over, his tone a little sarcastic.

“Half past twelve,” Qi Guang looked at the time and answered him seriously.

“Half past twelve is time to sleep,” Ye Xing also seriously educated him, “Health is the capital of the revolution.”

“Then why did you send me a message,” Qi Guang smiled, “Do you want me to sleep or not?”

“Of course, I want you to sleep!” Ye Xing said.

“If I go to sleep, who will accompany you when you have insomnia?” Qi Guang stopped writing, and twisted his stiff neck.

“There are so many fun things to do, for example…” Ye Xing paused, half-jokingly and half-seriously said, “Watch a movie or something.”

“Damn!” Qi Guang stood up and walked to the bathroom, “Classmate Ye often watches them?”

“Not really, just been curious lately…” Ye Xing was a little embarrassed, but suddenly reacted and shouted, “You’re trying to trick me?”

Qi Guang took a mouthful of mouthwash, swished it in his mouth for more than ten seconds and spat it into the sink, “Little Ye, can you put less yellow garbage and more exam content in your mind!”

“Oh,” Ye Xing responded.

“Next time you have insomnia, get up and do the questions I gave you,” Qi Guang walked into the room, closed the door, and lay on the bed.

“Oh,” Ye Xing reached out and slapped his ear that was disturbed by the buzzing of mosquitoes, “Aren’t you going to chat with me anymore?”

“Yes!” Qi Guang pulled his pillow, “I’m in bed, you turn on the air conditioner and cover yourself with the quilt.”

“Okay,” Ye Xing took out the remote control from the drawer of the bedside table. He had never turned on this air conditioner. After seeing the contents on the remote control clearly with the moonlight, he pressed the switch. The air conditioner started rumbling, the sound was so loud that it almost scared him off the bed, “Damn, why is the sound of this air conditioner so loud? Aren’t they all noise-canceling now?”

Even through the phone, he could feel his shock. Qi Guang imagined the scene and suddenly wanted to laugh, “It’s probably a bit old, put on your earphones.”

“Okay,” Ye Xing took out his earphones and obediently put them on.

“Now close your eyes, I’ll hang up when you fall asleep,” Qi Guang reached for the switch and turned off the light.

The next day, Qi Guang skipped the morning self-study as usual and swaggered into the classroom during the break.

He took out the still warm breakfast from his desk and took a bite, “Thanks, seatmate.”

“You’re late every day!” Ye Xing lay on the table to catch up on sleep, turned his head, and looked at him with one eye open.

“I don’t know who couldn’t sleep yesterday and wanted me to keep them company!” Qi Guang leaned close to him, lowered his voice, “In the end, you slept well, but the noise of the air conditioner kept me from sleeping!”

Ye Xing suppressed a laugh and raised his head, “Brother Qi, I was wrong!”

He took out soy milk from the breakfast bag, inserted a straw, and handed it to Qi Guang.

“Good boy,” Qi Guang stretched his neck, took a sip with a smile, then opened his bag, took out a notebook, the same style but different color from the last one, and handed it to him, “Here you go!”

Ye Xing had a bad feeling.

“English notes,” Qi Guang added.

“Did you specially organize it for me again?” Ye Xing opened it and looked at it, his tone full of helplessness.

“Yeah, organized it yesterday,” Qi Guang said vaguely while eating a bun, “Not finished yet, you can take a look first.”

“Damn!” Ye Xing raised his head, his eyes wide open, “You stayed up so late yesterday just to organize notes for me?”

Qi Guang was stunned, swallowed the food in his mouth, and then spoke, “Not entirely…”

Ye Xing lowered his voice and put his hand on someone’s thigh under the desk, “What should I do, I really want to kiss you now.”

“Damn!” Qi Guang was startled, “This is a classroom, I advise you not to be so unrestrained!”
