After Song Ge sent Xiaoyu home, she began to let her mind wander. She wondered what Zhai Cheng and that woman were talking about at the moment.
Would Zhang Hui speak ill of her in front of Zhai Cheng? Would Zhai Cheng be bewitched by that woman?
The more Song Ge thought about it, the more annoyed she became. She shook her head. Just then, she looked up and saw a bar. She walked in, planning to drown her sorrows in alcohol.
Song Ge rarely went to bars. She felt a bit uncomfortable after entering. She sat down at the bar and ordered a bottle of beer. After taking a couple of sips, she felt someone pat her on the back.
"Song Ge, it's really you! Why are you here in the bar too?" Wu Yilan said in a light - hearted tone as she sat down beside Song Ge.
Song Ge never expected to run into her best friend in this bar where she came to relieve her sorrows. The world was really small.
"Yilan." Song Ge panicked and gulped down the beer in one go. The strong liquor burned her throat. She fanned herself with her hand.
Wu Yilan laughed at her. She asked the bartender for a bottle of yogurt and replaced Song Ge's beer bottle. "Song Ge, if you can't drink, don't be brave. We've been best friends for so many years. Don't I know whether you can drink or not? Don't force yourself."
Song Ge didn't want to force herself either. It was precisely because of her low alcohol tolerance that she came to drink. If she got drunk, she could forget about Zhai Cheng and Zhang Hui. Without consciousness, she wouldn't keep thinking about them. Unlike now, just thinking about it made her heart ache so much that she could hardly breathe.
"I..." Song Ge bit her lips, not knowing how to start.
"What's wrong with you?" Wu Yilan patted Song Ge on the shoulder. "Song Ge, you're not in a good state today! What happened? You seem really sad." Wu Yilan stared intently at Song Ge.
Tears welled up in Song Ge's eyes. She had been holding back her grievances for a long time. Now seeing her best friend, she felt even more aggrieved.
"Don't cry! Song Ge, don't scare me!" Wu Yilan quickly asked the bartender for tissues.
Song Ge sniffed. Her eyes were red and swollen, looking as cute as a little rabbit.
"Yilan, thank you."
"What for? I haven't done anything yet." Wu Yilan waved her hand. She put her other hand on Song Ge's shoulder and nodded at her. "Seriously, Song Ge, you're acting really strange today. You still haven't told me what happened. We've been best friends for so many years. You're not going to keep this from me, are you?"
"No." Song Ge shook her head. She quickly lowered her head and picked at her palm, looking very conflicted.
After thinking for a while, Song Ge decided to tell Wu Yilan everything. After she finished, Wu Yilan was even more angry than Song Ge herself. She slapped her thigh and stood up. "Zhai Cheng is really going too far."
"Anyway, I'll introduce someone to you first."
Wu Yilan took out her phone and called out sweetly to the person on the other end of the line, "Baby, come to the bar where we usually meet. I want you to meet my best friend."
After hanging up the phone, Wu Yilan patted Song Ge on the shoulder again. She looked at Song Ge seriously. "Song Ge, you have to know that there are plenty of good men in the world. Zhai Cheng is not the only one. I'll introduce someone to you later."
"I don't want to go on a blind date so soon." Song Ge refused immediately.
Wu Yilan laughed. "No, it's my boyfriend."
"Boyfriend? Yilan, when did you start dating? How come I didn't know?" Song Ge squinted her eyes and stared blankly at Wu Yilan.
Seeing how cute she looked, Wu Yilan reached out and pinched Song Ge's cheek. "Hahaha, I haven't told you yet. I was just planning to find a chance to tell you. Seeing you so sad in the bar today, I thought I'd call him over for you to meet."
"Shouldn't you comfort me when I'm sad?" Song Ge was almost amused by her best friend's strange way of thinking.
"No!" Wu Yilan waved her hand. "I just want to call him over so you can see that there are still many good men in the world. I met him on a blind - date website. There are many excellent men on it. Even though I'm not that good, I still found a boyfriend who meets my expectations. Song Ge, you're better than me. There must be many excellent men who like you."
The two chatted for a while more, all about Wu Yilan's boyfriend. Wu Yilan liked him so much that she praised him to the skies. She even said that he was like a god who had descended to earth.
This only increased Song Ge's curiosity. She really wanted to know if the perfect man in her best friend's mouth really existed.
Two minutes later, Wu Yilan received a call. She said that the man was at the door and she would go out to pick him up. She asked Song Ge to change to a private room to chat.
Song Ge chose a private room and told Wu Yilan. Two minutes later, Wu Yilan led her boyfriend in.
"Come on, Song Ge, this is my boyfriend, Hou..."
"Hou Chenyi." Song Ge said it before her best friend.
"Hey, how do you know, Song Ge?" Wu Yilan laughed. She glanced around the private room. "Song Ge, why didn't you order any wine? I'll go choose some. You two can chat first."
After saying that, Wu Yilan left, leaving the two of them looking at each other in surprise. Song Ge's shock had passed. She calmly sat down, folded her hands together, and looked at the door. She asked, "Hou Chenyi, how did you meet Wu Yilan and become her boyfriend?"
Hou Chenyi scratched his head. His features were all scrunched up. "I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that you're Yilan's best friend. If I had known..."
"If you had known, you wouldn't have dated Yilan? There's no need for that, Hou Chenyi. I'm just curious about how you met Yilan." Song Ge looked serious. Yilan was a careless girl and easy to be deceived. Even though Hou Chenyi was an acquaintance of hers, she still didn't feel at ease just handing Yilan over to him.
"I met Yilan on a blind date." Hou Chenyi changed his sitting position and covered his mouth as he replied sullenly.
"On a blind date?" Song Ge's tone was full of curiosity. "Forget it. I don't care how you two met. Yilan is my best friend. If you dare to let her down, I won't let you off."
"Okay." Hou Chenyi replied quickly.
Both of them fell silent. Wu Yilan led a waiter with some wine in. She greeted them to drink. Song Ge wasn't in the mood and didn't drink much. Wu Yilan was very happy and drank a lot. Maybe because he was worried about his relationship with Wu Yilan, Hou Chenyi didn't drink much either.
Throughout the whole process, it was only Wu Yilan who was having a great time. She even said that God was finally kind to her and she finally had such a perfect boyfriend, fulfilling her long - held wish.
Song Ge thought that Wu Yilan was completely infatuated with Hou Chenyi and was almost crazy about him.
