Not being selected to join the Dark Team was already a huge failure, not to mention that Xu Cheng, who was so weakened that he couldn't even stay in the military anymore, really didn't care at all?
He just didn't want to cry in front of the dark guards. Xu Cheng's insistence was just to make his departure more appropriate. He didn't need pity or sympathy, and he didn't want to say anything. Because to a loser, whatever you said was wrong. He could only rest in peace and recover his strength back to Class A before entering the dark team!
However, reality was cruel. He had no choice but to face the fact that there was a problem with his body. It would be a lie to say that he did not know how to be sad.
Back in Shangcheng, Xu Cheng went out to a bar to get drunk at night. He let the crowd on the dance floor and the chaotic heavy metal music interact with each other, and Xu Cheng was immersed in his own emotions.
He sat on the bar counter and drank one glass after another of the strongest wine. Not long after, a gorgeously dressed woman walked over and hit on him."Aren't you going to treat me to a drink?"
Xu Cheng pretended he didn't hear her. The woman sized up Xu Cheng's tall figure, which was at least 1.9 meters tall. His facial features were clear, and the determination and sharpness in Xu Cheng's eyes were especially manly.
This kind of mature and steady aura was what women in nightclubs liked the most. Only women who lacked a sense of security would seek refuge in such a place. This woman was obviously interested in Xu Cheng.
"Give him a glass of whiskey. It's on me.”The woman beckoned to the bartender.
When the whiskey was placed on the stage, the woman seemed to stuff a knockout powder into the wine and smiled at Xu Cheng.""Then let me treat you."
"Although I'm a little drunk, I'm still rational.”Xu Cheng sneered at her and scolded,""Get lost."
The woman snorted and walked away.
Xu Cheng drank a few more glasses in a row, and many of his unhappy emotions were gradually forgotten under the influence of alcohol, and he slowly lost consciousness.
When the bar was about to close, the shop assistant came over and pushed him."Sir…Sir? Wake up."
The pile of empty wine bottles on the table he was lying on was enough to show that he had drunk to the limit tonight! As a result, no matter how much the shop assistant called him, he did not wake up. Under the circumstances, the shop assistant had no choice but to let two handymen come over to help him up. One of them took out his phone from him to contact someone.
The number of contacts on the phone was very simple. There were only a few people saved.
The first number on the list was the number of his wife. The shop assistant called him directly.
The phone rang for a long time. For some reason, the first call was not answered. The shop assistant continued to call. After waiting for a long time, someone picked up the phone.
It was a very ethereal and pleasant female voice. Although her tone was very cold, her voice was really gentle and pleasant to hear.
"Hello?"
"Is this the wife of the owner of this phone?" the shop assistant asked after a pause. This gentleman is drunk in our shop. He can't be woken up no matter how hard we try.”
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.
"You dialed the wrong number." the person on the other end of the phone said.
" But..." The shop assistant looked at the name of the phone number again and said,""But this gentleman's phone number says that he is his wife. I'm sorry.”
The other end of the phone fell silent.
Huadu Entertainment Company.
The beautiful woman who was attending the company's annual celebration party was wearing a long dress, and her wavy hair was always exuding an intellectual and rosy-like charm. Her name was Lin Chuxue, the national goddess. When she debuted, she amazed everyone with her glory that could bring disaster to the country and the people. Then, she used her own strength to conquer more and more fans, and she could be said to be one of the most famous female stars in recent years. Her identity as a foreigner of British descent gave her a sense of nobility, and her fans called her a blue-eyed princess. However, she chose to develop in China, and her stage name was Lin Chuxue.
Originally, she didn't care about Xu Cheng's call at all, but after hearing what the shop assistant said, she pondered for a while. When the shop assistant was about to hang up, she coldly asked,""Where is your shop?"
"Uhh." After she was silent for a long time, the shop assistant suddenly spoke in surprise, then quickly said,"At the Old Place Bar at 81 West Street.”
Then, the call was hung up. The shop assistant pursed her lips and felt that this woman was strange.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Chuxue hesitated for a moment and said to the assistant who was politely clinking glasses with someone in the corner,""Prepare the car and follow me to a place.”
The assistant nodded and took out the car keys from her bag. Lin Chuxue pushed the party away and followed her into her RV.
" Go to the bar at the 'usual place' at 81 West Street.”
The assistant nodded, and after starting the car, he smiled at Lin Chuxue.""Sister Lin, many newcomers in the company want to learn from you. Why are you leaving so early?”
"Boring. Are there usually many such parties?”Lin Chuxue looked at the night view outside the car along the river.
"Sister Lin, why are you going to a bar so late at night?”
Lin Chuxue didn't say anything. She quietly looked out of the car window, her long eyelashes unmoving. She was such a quiet and elegant woman, but no matter where she sat, her natural beauty and aura couldn't be ignored. Whether it was in life or in her career, she always gave people the impression that she was a woman who stood aloof from the world and was exceptionally quiet and lonely, blooming with her own beauty.
When they arrived at the 'usual place' at number 81, Lin Chuxue, as a public figure, couldn't show up, so she said to her assistant,""Xiaolan, go inside and help a gentleman named Xu Cheng out to the car.”
Xiao Lan was a little surprised, but she still got out of the car and ran into the bar.
It didn't take long before she struggled to hold the unconscious and drunk Xu Cheng, and it took her a lot of time. It was mainly because Xu Cheng was too good at tossing and turning, and in the end, Lin Chuxue personally got out of the car and helped him into the RV before placing him on the sofa.
"Back to my apartment."
"Sister Lin, you never bring men to your apartment.”Xiao Lan felt that it was inappropriate to be worried.
"Go ahead." Lin Chuxue didn't want to repeat it a second time.
Xiao Lan could only start the car. On the way, she couldn't help but ask,""Who is he? I've never seen it before."
"He is my husband." Lin Chuxue looked at the drunk Xu Cheng and said calmly,""The kind that's only in name."
"Husband?" "Sister Lin, aren't you not married yet?" Xiao Lan widened her eyes.”
Lin Chuxue said," It's a pre-arranged marriage, I can't refuse." However, we've been married for three years and have never lived together. In fact, we don't even seem to exist to each other.”
Assistant Xiao Lan's heart was in turmoil. How old was Lin Chuxue? She looked to be in her early twenties. As her assistant who had debuted with her for three years, she had never heard that she was already married?
If the media and fans knew about this, wouldn't they be heartbroken and ruin their future? The entertainment industry, especially female celebrities, relied on their youth to survive. They were most afraid of becoming outdated after getting married early. As an assistant, she was very anxious.
Lin Chuxue knew what her assistant was worried about, so she said,""Don't worry. Since we can hide it from everyone for three years, we can continue to hide it. We have indeed registered our marriage, but we only have status, no feelings, and no actual marriage.”
