Blade and Swift

Yan Xichen's eyes turned around the audience, and finally stopped at the man at the bar who was drinking with his back facing him.

Perhaps their boss's wild energy couldn't be hidden. When Yan Xichen approached him, he obviously slowed down hesitantly.

"It's so cute." Catching the vigilance Yan Xichen unconsciously showed when he approached their boss, Rose commented.

"Bet on the M9, the boss will follow him." Rosen said seriously.

"It's a bet. The boss is single based on his strength, so I have no reason to doubt it." Rose said.

Yan Xichen still sat beside the man.Although he really wanted to sleep well on the first day in the other world, it was a pity that the weather was not as he wished, he gave up going to sleep and came out to drink, and he felt infinitely depressed, and he didn't know who to complain about.Since coming to the other world, except Duan Mingyi who just met, no one can really listen to him.

He seemed to be leaving behind the world he knew, along with his family and friends.The sense of great panic and loneliness was so dull that it had not come to him until now.

Yan Xichen actually didn't like the atmosphere of this bar very much, the atmosphere was too enchanting, the lighting was too ambiguous, and the music made people feel restless.The men and women present here are confused, they are more like spiritual indulgence than physical bodies.Yan Xichen didn't like this feeling, and wanted to leave immediately.Just when he thought that this place was not suitable for him to relieve his emotions, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to meet strangers who would listen to him, he suddenly saw the man alone at the bar.

The man's two slender legs were folded casually, he was wearing a smoky gray sweater, his back was slightly arched, and he looked very relaxed.The wine in his hand glowed amber under the light, reflecting his slightly cold eyes.He was very handsome, with slightly curly hair resting on his bushy eyebrows, adding a charming arc to his already handsome face.

In Yan Xichen's bitter mood, there was a kind of eagerness to move, which was his instinct.I don't know if it's because when people are in distress, they can't help but feel more compassion for everyone. The figure of a man is reflected in Yan Xichen's eyes, which means loneliness and desolation.

With this kind of connotation, it is inevitable that there will be the hypocritical sadness of "the same people who have fallen into the world", so he walked to the bar without hesitation.

When Yan Xichen approached him, he saw the man turn his head slightly as if he had noticed something.His back was facing Yan Xichen, so when he turned his head, half of his face was blocked by his shoulders, and his gaze was cast from the shoulders, like the eyes of a wolf.

It was a momentary intuition that made Yan Xichen feel like he was being targeted.But the man's gaze became soft and ambiguous after that, the speed was so fast and the contrast was so great that Yan Xichen thought it was just an illusion.

Like a prey that fell into a trap, he entered the man's hunting range without knowing it, and after a moment of doubt, he still approached the bar.

The man glanced at him casually, then looked at the wine glass in his hand with lowered eyelids.The wine has bottomed out, leaving some ice scum.

Yan Xichen observed the other party from the corner of his eye, and asked the bartender for the same drink.He didn't rush to sit next to the man. He felt that although the man looked lazy, he also had a sense of alienation.No one else in his domain disturbed him, but he seemed to be allowed to enter his domain.

Yan Xichen was baffled by his strange conjecture.

The outside world made Yan Xichen very distressed and anxious, but at the moment he was having fun in the bitterness, and found many different reveries in men.Does he think he is waiting for someone at this moment?Does not look like.That means getting drunk when something unpleasant happens?But it seemed that he was drinking in a leisurely manner, not as if he was trying to get drunk.Is it possible to hunt for beauty here?Yan Xichen thought to himself, that might be the case.

He began to wonder what kind of story happened to the man.What kind of past did he have, what sufferings did he go through, and how did he finally feel relieved...

Yan Xichen's expression changed unpredictably, immersed in his own reverie, his gaze also changed from a secret scrutiny at the beginning to an open and honest scrutiny.Of course, if the people around him knew what was going on in his mind at the moment, it would probably be difficult to drink like nothing had happened.

Yan Xichen, who was immersed in his own reverie, quickly finished his drink. He lay on the table with his arm under his pillow, and stared blankly at the man.

"Stare at me with that look again, and I'll take you home." The man's voice was deep and magnetic, as lethal as his appearance.

The man didn't turn his head to look at him, but called the bartender to refill Yan Xichen's glass.

Yan Xichen thought to himself, okay.He almost said it, but of course he still felt that he should be more reserved.

"Did I meet you somewhere?" Yan Xichen looked at the man's dark brown eyes, there seemed to be many complex emotions in them, reflecting different contents under the feasting light, which made him want to get closer.

"This is a very old-fashioned way to strike up a conversation." The man smiled, swirled the drink, and took a sip of the light gold wine in the glass.

Yan Xichen's eyes followed the pale gold to the man's lips, and then to the swallowing Adam's apple...

"Did you invite me to drink this glass of wine? I didn't bring too much money." Yan Xichen simply moved over and sat directly beside the man.

"Sure," the man said, "if you tell me why you keep staring at me."

Yan Xichen was a little embarrassed, he couldn't really tell him the story behind him just now when he was idle and bored.

"Because you look good." Yan Xichen blurted out without shame.

"You really dare to say it." The man was stunned for a moment, and then quickly smiled, "Has your style of picking up conversations been so straightforward?"

"It's better than saying you want to take me home, right?"

Yan Xichen also laughed, and he thought of his parents in the world and his smooth life.Thinking of this, his eyes dimmed again.

"However, I have come out of the closet, and I don't care much about other people's opinions. I was probably spoiled by my parents and friends since I was a child, and I never felt that I was an outlier. Later, when I grew up, I realized that I had enlightened parents. Almost never made me suffer." Yan Xichen also couldn't explain why he talked so much with this man today, he was completely immersed in his emotions, and even forgot to drink the wine.

Forty degrees of Jack Daniel's, the hot aroma is coming up from the stomach now, oozing out from every pore, making him a little tipsy.

The more the smell of alcohol enveloped him, the uncomfortable emotions in his heart began to grow unscrupulously.

"But today is an unlucky day. I may have never been so unlucky in my life, maybe my parents and friends didn't spoil me, maybe they never existed... I really don't want to believe it, but this dream is too long, Why haven't I returned yet?"

Rose and Rosen in the corner looked at each other, they didn't understand that this young man, who was aggressive during the day, was acquainted with each other, and could chat so many boring things with their boss without changing his face.Of course, in the eyes of the two of them, this is indeed a boring thought, because everyone who comes to the other world will have such a mental journey, and Yan Xichen's thoughts are not new.

The boss who came to the inner world earlier than them must feel that these things are not new.But the amazing thing is that their boss didn't interrupt Yan Xichen from the beginning to the end.

"Let me tell you, a woman's intuition, the boss must have something to do with him." Rose's tone became gossip, and she was so elated that the mole on the tip of her eyebrow became vivid.

Rosen rubbed his temples, knowing that Rose's old problem was repeated.She is extremely curious about the gossip of the people around her, and upholds a spirit of exploration that is never tired of it. Even Rosen's own private life cannot escape Rose's eyes.

"So it's a new kid, I think I probably know what you're talking about." The man squinted his eyes and smiled, looking very comfortable.The light from the bar fell on his eyes, and it was so fragmentary that it dazzled a little.But those were just illusions, and it was him who was dazzling, not the little light reflected in his eyes, "You know, there are more than a dozen people like you who come to this bar every day. Some people refuse to accept it from the beginning to the end. In fact, in the end, they chose to commit suicide, and some people wanted to go back to the world of watches, and they succeeded. What about you? Now that you know everything, what kind of person are you?"

The man propped his face and tilted his head. He was a very attractive one. There was a bit of playfulness in his smile at the moment, but he was seriously waiting for Yan Xichen's answer.

Confusion appeared on Yan Xichen's face: "I...I want to..."

Seeing that he couldn't answer for a long time, the man smiled lowly and didn't rush.He drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and an idea came to his mind.

"You don't need to answer now, just think about it yourself."

"So what about you?" Seeing that the man seemed to be leaving, Yan Xichen might have been a little bold after drinking, he grabbed the man's sleeve, his eyes full of seriousness, "How long have you been here?" , why did you choose to stay in the other world?"

Unexpectedly, the man did not break free from his hand, but bowed close to him instead.The smell of alcohol on his body mixed with this sweet and sour smell, and the strong hormones poured on Yan Xichen's body, immediately blowing away his unconsciousness.Yan Xichen let go of his hand, and the feeling of being watched by a wolf like a prey came again.The feeling this time was not fleeting, because the man really enveloped him with absolute momentum and aura for a long time.He lowered his body and said in his ear: "Because I'm waiting for someone. In order to wait for him, I'm not going anywhere."

Yan Xichen's body froze, and he asked almost instinctively and subconsciously: "Then have you waited?"

"It should be soon." The man straightened up again, and returned to that lazy look with an indifferent smile.

He took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket, lowered his head slowly, took one out, and stuffed another into Yan Xichen's mouth: "Would you like to go out and smoke a cigarette to get some air?"

Yan Xichen stared at the man, he hadn't recovered from the aura of being suppressed just now.He estimated in his mind whether the man had other purposes.He admitted that being teased by a man was a little distracted, but he really didn't come to the bar today for pleasure.

By coincidence, he agreed.

When he got off the chair, he could feel the man's hand gently resting on his back, leading him out.

Yan Xichen is also a man, he knows what it means to act like an oath of sovereignty to protect the domain.

Sure enough, he turned his head and saw other people in the bar looking away, tentative, curious, and eager to try, and they all looked back when they saw the man's movements.

In the dark, Rosen stretched out his hand silently to Rose.

"What?" Rose was still in the shock of this development and couldn't react.

"M9."

Rose patted on his palm, playing tricks: "Boss didn't go with him, he went with Boss."

Rosen shook his head helplessly, and withdrew his hand: "I guess we don't have anything to do here, so let's go back earlier."
