Chapter 64: Unforgettable Birthday Party (04)

  It turned out that Xiao Qiuying and Ouyang Yiweng's sudden appearance at the birthday party was due to a combination of coincidence and human factors, with both factors accounting for about half each.

  Xiao Qi Ming returned home from school and saw his sister Xiao Fei, so he pulled her out to prepare for dinner at "Fu Yun Ju". Unexpectedly, they met Ouyang Yi Wen and Lin Yu Fei along the way, and after asking, they found that they were also looking for a place to eat. So he suggested eating together.

  Ouyang Yiweng and Lin Yuwei knew that Xiao Qiuming had some bad habits, but since they were in the same class as him and still got along with each other, they didn't think much of it and followed him to "Fuyunju".

  Who would have thought that as soon as they entered the "Fuyunju" gate, the big-bellied boss who was very familiar with Xiao Qiuyue immediately came to greet them. He smiled and said: "Qiuyue, the young man who came with you last time is having a birthday party in the elegant room upstairs..."

  "Who is it? Which young fellow?" Xiao Qiuyue was somewhat perplexed.

  Then, the fat boss carefully described the person's clothing, appearance and height. Xiao Qiuying listened and guessed that it was probably Chen Haonan. He quickly asked which private room it was and led his sister, Ouyang Yiyun, and Lin Yuhan upstairs to the second floor.

  Arriving at the door, Xiao Qiuyue pounded on it loudly and shouted: "Hao Nan!"

  Then there were Chen Haonan and Xiao Qiuyue introducing each other, and then there was the matter of making a cake.

  A few people just nibbled a little bit of cake, and the rest all became "weapons" for battle - each one was smeared into a flower cat face, even their clothes were "covered in scars"...

  "As soon as the fight stopped, Chen Haonan slipped out of the room and into the bathroom. He had a face full of cream and needed to wash it off thoroughly. But before he could even rinse his face, Li Donglin snuck in and locked the door behind him. "Donglin, what's wrong with you? Why did you lock the door?" Chen Haonan asked urgently, wiping the water from his face."

  "Hao Nan, I have something to ask you..." Li Donglin said hastily.

  Chen Haonan smiled slightly and patted Li Donglin's shoulder, saying: "What's with the two of us? If you have something to say, just say it straight out, don't be so mysterious!"

  "Well, in that case... how did you get hooked up with Xiao Qi Ming?"

  "What's wrong with Xiao Qiuming?" Chen Haonan asked with a puzzled expression.

  "He's probably hanging out on the streets, you'd better be careful!" Li Donglin was worried in his heart, fearing that his old partner would be led astray by Xiao Qiuying. "I know you don't have many friends in Class 214, but you should be cautious when making friends like this!"

  "I'm very clear about this in my heart..."

  "I'm just afraid you're not clear about it!" Li Donglin suddenly interrupted Chen Haonan's words and said, "I've known Xiao Qiuming since we were kids, and in middle school, we were even in the same class. I know his character very well - I don't want you to be influenced by him!"

  "Donglin, thank you!"

  "What am I thanking you for?" Li Donglin was somewhat perplexed.

  "Thanks for reminding me, only you would talk to me like this..." Chen Haonan said, patting Li Donglin's body again. "I know you care about me, but in my eyes, Xiao Qiuming isn't that bad of a person. He's a weird talent, and as long as he changes some of his bad habits and bad temper, he's still worth befriending!"

  "But—"

  "Donglin, don't say 'but' so much," Chen Haonan immediately cut in, "I'm very clear in my heart about what kind of friends can be made and what kind cannot. I also have a sense of propriety and won't be foolish... when making friends, I only care about sincerity, as long as he is genuine, the rest doesn't matter..."

  Li Donglin was about to say something else, but Chen Haonan waved his hand to signal him not to say more. Just then, the bathroom door was knocked on, and it was Xiao Qiuming shouting from outside. After patting Li Donglin's shoulder again, Chen Haonan said: "Old buddy, I've got a plan in mind, don't worry!" As he spoke, he went to open the door...

  Chen Haonan and a few people returned to the private room, and the waiter had almost finished cleaning up the house. Next was ordering food, and to add to the excitement, Xiao Qiuming secretly ordered a dozen beers. Rarely so happy, Chen Haonan naturally nodded in agreement.

  Dishes were served one after another, and at the table, Xiao Qiuying and Li Donglin kept toasting Chen Haonan with wine. He was a bit drunk, really drunk for the first time in his life! To be honest, sometimes the feeling of being drunk is great... After all, it's rare to get drunk in life!

  At the moment of intoxication, Chen Haonan's poetic inspiration suddenly rose, and he stood up with a half cup of wine. After staggering for a few steps, he loudly recited Li Taibai's "Near Wine":

  Have you not seen the Yellow River's waters come from heaven, rushing to the sea and never returning?

  Don't you see that in high halls and bright mirrors, white hair is lamented? In the morning it was like black silk, by evening it had become snow.

  Life's joys should be savored to the fullest, don't let the golden cup be empty when facing the moon.

  Heaven-born talents will always have their uses; a thousand pieces of gold can be spent and then come back again.
