Unknowingly, her memories returned to three years ago.
Ni Yuying knew that Shanghai was a charming city.
Her hometown, Shandong Province, was a city surrounded by the sea on three sides and a mountain on one side. Her hometown was very beautiful. It had mountains and rivers, and it was a land of outstanding people. It had the reputation of being the " Eastern Switzerland."
She actually didn't like the so-called magnificence. She felt that those big cities that were full of magnificence were also full of emptiness and decadence. The city of Shanghai, known as the "Paris of the East", was such a city.
The bar street on Hengshan Road was brightly lit at night. Thus, the legend of 'Night Shanghai' was confirmed. As Ni Yuying was thinking about it, she had unknowingly walked to a bar. She suddenly understood that this was a paradise for the rich. Once she entered this place, she would be indulged in debauchery and debauchery. Suzanna, Lu Xi, and Tang Jingjing were Ni Yuying's roommates. They all had the habit of going to bars. This time, it was the first time that she was driven by curiosity to experience the "bar style" of "Night Shanghai" with them. Tang Jingjing had an appointment and was very familiar with everything in the bar. As soon as she entered, she hugged her " lover " and left. Even though it was not a duty-split invitation this time, Ni Yuying still hoped that she would leave as soon as possible after satisfying her curiosity.
Suzanna's friend was from Hong Kong. He was the general agent of a foreign company. He was 28 years old and was young and promising. They entered a private room and saw a handsome man sitting on a soft and comfortable wine-red sofa. He was wearing a gray suit from Armani, and his hair was combed neatly. They were very enthusiastic when they saw Ni Yuying and the other two enter.
Suzanna was also very charming. She was wearing a red dress that revealed her back. Her legs were exposed, and she was wearing a pair of high-heeled pointed sandals. Her long wavy hair was dyed red, purple, and linen. Her bell-like eyes sparkled, making her look even more seductive. "You're already here, right? Have you been waiting for a long time?" she said softly. Ni Yuying promised that she had never heard Suzanna's tone like this in the dormitory.
" Come, let me introduce you. This is Lu Xi, you've met her before. The other is Ni Yuying. They're both my roommates." Suzanna said as she pushed the handsome man who stood up from the sofa forward. Her long fingers were manicured and embedded into the man's broad shoulders. She gave the expensive suit a little creases.
"Hello, my name is Xu Weiqiang. You can call me Wayne.”This man was indeed handsome." Since you're Susana's friends, you're my friends too. It's my treat today. Everyone, have fun and don't be restrained, okay?”
Vaguely, she felt that this man's temperament exuded a special quality: It was dangerous. Strange, how could it be dangerous? Ni Yuying was puzzled. It had been a long time since such vigilance had fermented in the cells of his body. What was going on?
"Lu Xi, we've met before. Well, you're from Hong Kong, so your English must be very good. So, you can call me Lucy!”As she spoke, Lu Xi imitated a western lady and reached out her hand. As expected, the man called Wayne gave her a polite kiss on her slender hand.
" Miss…" Ah Wei wanted to welcome Ni Yuying with the same courtesy, but Ni Yuying smiled apologetically." My name is Ni Yuying. If you think my name is too tongue-tied, you can call me Ni Ni."”She saw Wayne stunned for a moment. His eyes were filled with doubt, curiosity, and interest towards her. She knew that compared to Lu Xi's plump and cute lake-blue Korean dress, lace collar, lantern sleeves, and lantern hem, coupled with a pair of cute pink and blue sandals with high heels and thin ribbons, she looked like a doll. She even had a princess hairstyle with a bow. Her outfit was much more ladylike. Her short hair had grown to her neck, making her look even more slender and slender. She had a pointed oval face, single phoenix eyes, and a cherry mouth. She wasn't too beautiful, but her appearance easily gave people a mysterious and charming feeling. Coupled with her only female outfit, the white dress she prepared for the play, it was simple, fresh, and plain. Coupled with a pair of white high-heel sandals, it gave people the impression that she was an obedient girl. She knew that her smile would always make people feel comfortable.
" There will be another guest later. He's my friend…" Wayne said as he sat back down on the sofa and poured himself a glass of wine. Suzanna sat on his lap and winked at him." You know what?" "Wayne's bartending skills are excellent. He's even better than the bartender here…" She gestured for Lu Xi and Ni Yuying to sit down while she drank his wine in Wayne's arms.
"Isn't there another person in your dormitory?”Wayne asked inadvertently. "Oh, you're talking about Tang Jingjing. She has an old lover here, we don't care about her…"”Wayne had a smile on his face, but Ni Yuying felt that he was cold. " She's not old. She's always looking for a lover here. She changes her lover almost every week," Suzanna said. Suddenly, she looked at the door. A handsome man with flaxen hair and deep eyes walked in. Yes, it was. She really didn't know what else to use to describe this man other than the word handsome. He was dressed casually, but he was also very particular about it. The white T-shirt and white jeans made her legs look even more slender. Lu Xi, who liked handsome guys, drooled.
Wayne walked over and patted the handsome man on the shoulder, then said something in a foreign language. They spoke very quickly, and it could only be judged that they were speaking in the language of a European country. "Let me introduce him to everyone. He is Paul, French, born in Switzerland, and is currently studying in Switzerland. This time, he came to China for a short trip. He can speak a little Chinese."
Then, Paul greeted everyone and said something that made everyone faint." Wow, so, so Soon, Lu Xi and Paul were getting along in English.
Ni Yuying understood that Suzanna and the others were showing off their circle of friends. She was also clear about the love creed of the Shanghai girl: He had to find a rich man. Even a Shanghai girl would not treat him badly. Suzanna was obviously interested in Wayne, but Wayne still seemed to be willing to maintain an ambiguous relationship with her. "I'm going to the washroom." Ni Yuying stood up and left. It was not that the two pairs of people were lovey-dovey and made her jealous, but she really felt that the novelty had worn off and it was time to go back.
There was a plain face in front of the mirror in the bathroom. She had put on a thin layer of foundation and brushed her eyelashes a few times. The color of her lip gloss had faded. This was the second time she had put on light makeup. The first time was during a play. Unknowingly, she recalled the unruly face of Wu Zisong, who was acting with her, and the scene of him saying that he loved her. Did he really love her?
He turned on the tap and used the cool water to wash away her thoughts. She raised her head and realized that there were tears on her cheeks. She knew that the suit that covered her was still in her dormitory. Since then, she had been wearing this white dress. She couldn't help but wear it because he said that he liked it. A woman's appearance is for the one who likes her! No, what was she thinking? Could it be that he was really provoked by those two pairs of people just now? She washed her face comfortably with water before walking out.
She did not return to the bar's private room. Instead, she chose to go outside to get some fresh air and ask about how to get back to school. She remembered that this place was not very far from the school. "Nini, why don't you go in and play?" A large hand was placed on her shoulder. She turned around and saw Wayne smiling at her. "I think I should go back to school." She was a little nervous. Every cell in her body was warning her that this man was very dangerous. "I'll send you back. Wait for me first!”It was not gentle at all. It sounded more like a command. Before Ni Yuying could react, the man had already left her sight. Seriously, what was he trying to do?
After a while, a silver-gray sports car stopped in front of her. "Get in the car!" It was still that commanding tone. "Why?" Ni Yuying resisted instinctively. "Of course I'm sending you back to school. I mean no harm!”Wayne shrugged. " But Suzanna and the others are still inside…" Ni Yuying looked into the bar worriedly.
Wayne seemed to have seen through her thoughts. He smiled and said," It's okay. They've decided to stay up all night. They're having fun now. I'll send you back to school and then come back…" As he spoke, he suddenly frowned." Cut the crap and come up quickly!"”While Ni Yuying was hesitating, Wayne grabbed her like she was a kitten and dragged her into the car. Then, the car started moving.
It had to be said that it was a pleasant thing to sit in this luxury sports car at night and look at Xujiahui, the most prosperous representative of Shanghai. She couldn't help but have the illusion that this was a romantic date between them. Perhaps Wayne was just a passerby in her life. Why didn't she cherish this rare moment of romance? As she was thinking, she stuck her head out of the window and shouted, Long live, long live! At this moment, a hand pulled her into the car forcefully." It's dangerous, girl!”As he spoke, he used one hand to drive the car and the other hand to gently stroke her head.
Hmm, this feeling was very familiar. However, this caress was like the tender love of a big brother.
Ni Yuying's thoughts were in a mess as she lay on the bed. In front of her was Wu Zisong and Wayne. She closed her eyes in frustration, and another shadow blurred in her vision. She suddenly opened her eyes, and her mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts.
It wasn't that she didn't have a boyfriend. Her boyfriend, Ah Bing, was more handsome than Wu Zisong and Ah Wei. This was purely based on the aesthetic point of view. Wu Zisong wasn't as tall as Ah Bing, while Ah Wei seemed to have gone through a lot.
Abing, who was three years older than her, was the son of her mother's colleague and good friend. They had played together since they were young and grew up together. Later, when Abing went to Shanghai to attend university, she gave up on the special enrollment of a university in Beijing and came to Shanghai alone. However, when she came to Shanghai, he went back to Qing Dao. Just like that, one of them was in the south, while the other was in the north, struggling to maintain the feelings that had accumulated since they were born.
Abing wasn't simple. He had been a good fighter since junior high school. He secretly organized an organization called " Seventeen Roses " and liked people to call him " Young Master." When she was very young, she knew that he had many secrets to hide from his " worker parents " who worked in the factory. However, he didn't mind that she knew about him. He liked to share his little secrets with her. She knew that in his eyes, she was special. She even knew that she had never joined their organization, but his organization had specially reserved a second-in-command position for her. Unknowingly, someone called her " Little Rose ", but she did not reject it. Her acceptance of the nickname also caused it to spread like wildfire. This was also the reason why she wanted to start over in a different environment.
She had established a relationship with Abing before he left for Shanghai. This matter was very secretive, so secretive that even the parents of both parties did not know. Even if they saw some signs, she believed that they were happy to see it happen.
At that time, Abing had just ended a relationship. He was the one who broke up with her. He was already tired of that girl and thought that he had already
It lost its novelty. Ni Yuying knew that the girl was very rich. She had been observing their relationship from a third-person perspective. At that time, Ni Yuying had just graduated from junior high school. Sometimes, she would participate in and lead Abing's small gang's plans and affairs, but she had not broken the law yet. Ah Bing told Ni Yuying that he was almost at the age where he could start a family. He was tired, and he was tired of playing the game of love. He wanted to find a stable job after he graduated from university and marry her. She nodded in agreement, but she knew that not hating him didn't mean that it was love. There was always a lack of passion between them.
Perhaps, deep down in her heart, she treated him as a brother and not a lover. And when he wanted to turn her into that passionate lover, she had retreated.
Abing went to university, but something big happened to his gang. Some of the small leaders in his organization planned a big car theft operation and were caught. The rest of the people were also persuaded by Ni Yuying to 'turn over a new leaf.' It could be said that the 'Seventeen Roses' had withdrawn from the historical stage of this area, withdrew from the 'world of martial arts' and ended its short and glorious battle results.
That summer, Abing came back. He knew what had happened and was convinced by Ni Yuying's decisiveness. He knew that Ni Yuying and the brothers who were captured had protected some of the elites in the gang. He knew that his judgment was right. One day during the summer break, Ni Yuying lost her first kiss and almost gave herself away. Now that she thought about it, she felt a lingering fear…and all of that was the result of her wanting to find passion with him.
Suzanna once said that if a woman was willing to give her body to a man, it meant that she loved him. Did she not love Abing? This was also the reason why Ni Yuying was confused.
Abing didn't call often. She was usually the one who called him. However, most of the time, it was either the line was busy or the tone was blind. She was used to it. She knew that Abing was not a man who was good at expressing himself. Looking at the photo on the desk, she smiled happily in Abing's arms. Ni Yuying started to miss Abing again. The photo was taken when he came back from the summer vacation. To be honest, she was still sporting a hairstyle back then. Anyone who saw the photo would say to her," Your brother is so handsome." She would say to Abing," Your baby-faced brother is so cute!”
Oh, brother, hehe. Before he asked her to be his girlfriend, she had always called him that. But now, this word seemed unfamiliar. If only Abing was by her side…
"Look, what did I bring for the sisters?”The one who spoke must be Lu Xi, who was known as the "little princess". She was holding a plastic bag in her hand, and inside it were clearly visible oranges.
"Wow! What a fresh orange, the color is so beautiful!”Suzanna was the noisiest of them all, and she would not complain until she saw food. Tang Jingjing still had that indifferent expression on her face.
"Nini. Take this!" The lively Lu Xi threw the two oranges at Ni Yuying, who was in a daze, and she caught them smoothly. "Not bad!" Suzanna praised.
Ni Yuying was still a little absent-minded as she played with the orange.
"Ah, this is food, not a toy!”Lu Xi was so amused that she screamed when she saw how Cheng looked like a small ball that was being juggled by a circus clown in Ni Yuying's hands.
Ni Yuying smiled embarrassedly and took out a fruit knife from the drawer to cut the orange." Okay, then I'll try to see if it's sweet or not…" As she spoke, her gaze fell on the photo of her and Abing. Strange, it's been a few weeks, but Ah Bing hasn't even called or sent any news. It's like he's missing…Just as she was thinking about it, Ni Yuying suddenly cried out,"Aiyo!" The knife cut into the middle of her index finger, and blood gushed out like ketchup. Suzanna's voice could be heard faintly,""Are you cutting an orange or your own finger? No matter what, you can't hurt yourself…"
"Abing, you haven't called me in a long time…"
"Nini, you're not a willful girl. You know how busy I am…"
Ni Yuying was stunned when she heard a woman's laughter on the other end of the phone.
"I, I…I cut my finger when I was cutting an orange…"
" It's just a small matter..." Abing seemed a little impatient on the other end of the phone.
"I, I miss you…I miss you so much…"
"Alright, be good. I'm busy…"
A woman's frivolous smile came from the phone, followed by the sound of the phone hanging up.
Ni Yuying tiredly placed the photo of her and Ah Bing on the table…
