It was 8:10 when Zhou Jingze saw Li Yang's activity, and he happened to be drinking coconut chicken soup at his grandfather's house.

Holding the handle of the spoon, he slowly skimmed the oil on it while looking at the phone.

"You kid! How many times have you said not to play with your phone." Grandpa dropped a plastic spoon without any ambiguity.

Grandma took the condiment bottle on the table, and immediately felt distressed when she saw that her grandson was beaten. She cursed, "You are embarrassed to beat him. Even if you eat yourself, you always like to read newspapers."

Grandpa looked sad and did not dare to speak any more.

With a sloppy smile on the corners of Zhou Jingze's lips, his thumb slid across the screen of the phone, and he was watching the dynamics of the circle of friends like a horse. His eyes suddenly stopped, and Li Yang sent a group photo.

Xu Sui was on the very side. He was eating something. He was yelled before raising his head. The tomato in her hand had just been brought to her mouth, her cheeks bulged, and a trace of blankness appeared in her quiet eyes.

Grandpa was still talking over there and coughed two serious coughs: "You kid, you've always been very stubborn, and don't tell your family anything. Do you need me to help you with the grounded violation of discipline?"

"Grandpa," Zhou Jingze put down the spoon and stood up, "Tang will accompany you to drink another day. I have to leave beforehand."

Zhou Jingze picked up the mobile phone on the side, picked up the jacket on the back of the chair, and left. Grandpa was so angry that he said: "You didn't go home for ten and a half months, and now you are finally back. How can there be any reason to leave temporarily? It's a big matter?"

"Well, a big deal." Zhou Jingze said with a smile.

He walked to the hallway, Song Ma hurriedly delivered the cigarette and lighter he had dropped, Zhou Jingze took it, and remembered what the grandpa said:

"You're all retired, and it's time for others to gossip. And this matter is not under investigation. If you really want to intervene, I really can't make it clear at that time."

Besides, he also has his pride.

While waiting for Zhou Jingze to come, the women at the party were either spraying perfume on their wrists or necks, or applying lipstick in front of the mirror.

Liang Shuang and her new boyfriend went to the pool to play, Xu Suize ate the fruit in front of him seriously, and by the way played chess with a man sitting next to him.

Xu Sui played chess seriously, playing the same chess style as her own, slow-heating, steady type, and started the game with a flying start.

When it was her turn to go, Xu Suituo was thinking about where to go for the next chess move. In the corner of her light, she caught a glimpse of a figure walking in.

The black flight jacket, his hands hung down between the trousers, his wrist bones protruding, and the atmosphere began to change abruptly from the moment he took his seat.

The cautious thoughts of several women on the court were very obvious. Some lent him a drink to talk, while others changed seats blatantly. Zhou Jingze sat on the sofa on her side, a seat separated from her.

Because someone came to change seats and it was a bit crowded, Xu Sui moved back a bit and moved the chessboard back together. Xu Sui's expression remained unchanged. She took a sip of wine and pushed the chess piece forward.

Decided to go around.

Someone talked to Zhou Jingze one after another, but he was calm and couldn't pry out anything. He would talk to you but it seemed perfunctory.

It seemed that he was not interested in the women present.

Smart people know how to start with hobbies. Bai Jiajia puts her hand on her chin, taps her index finger on her cheek, and asks: "Like watching football games?"

Zhou Jingze drank the wine, divided his eyes and came over, still dripping, "It's okay."

Bai Jiajia, who was sitting opposite, raised her eyebrows and automatically understood these two words as likes. If you didn't say dead, it was okay.

Bai Jiajia also talked more, but Zhou Jingze still had no waves on her face. He kept a certain distance from her, drank his own wine, and looked casually to the left.

When Xu Sui was playing chess, he inadvertently smiled at his opponent, and the man was immediately stunned.

Throughout the whole process, she did not look at Zhou Jingze's side, calmly and calmly.

This scene caught the man's eyes, Zhou Jingze put his slender hand on the glass and tightened his face, as if he was about to crush the glass. The woman next to him wanted to catch Zhou Jingze, but did not notice the change on his face, and asked, "Hey, what are you looking at?"

"Naturally, I'm watching--" Zhou Jingze drank the wine in his hand and put it on the table as if it were being stamped, his Adam's apple rolled slowly, "My man."

Three words, almost blown up the scene.

They were all curious about which woman it was. Zhou Jingze had a lazy look just now. So soon, he became interested in a woman present?

Sitting in the center, Li Yang was furious, and saw that the person he had finally invited was surrounded by a group of women, but he couldn't say a few words. It was really hard to say.

Halfway through the game, Xu Sui applied for an intermission to go to the bathroom. She washed her hands and found that the lip makeup was a bit sloppy, so she took the lipstick from her purse and traced it to the mirror.

She was making up for it. A group of women came in from the bathroom. They saw Xu Sui smiling and saying hello, and they started chatting like no one else.

"Damn, when he said the words'my man' just now, I was about to be killed by his voice to Su. "

"Curious, who is he talking about, I glanced to the left when he was talking."

"Jiajia, won't it be yours? Is it you on the left hand side, isn't it facing you?" the companion asked in surprise.

Bai Jiajia smiled, but did not speak. The companion poked her in the arm and asked, "How do you know he likes watching football games?"

"The jacket he is wearing has a small badge on the neckline. Unfortunately, it is a team that my brother often talks about."

Bai Jiajia tilted her head, tucked her long hair, and the smell of sweet perfume reached the tip of Xu Sui's nose.

The one who changed earrings in the mirror said: "It could be me, I feel he is looking at me, it's time to kick that **** boyfriend."

...

Xu Sui went out after filling up the lipstick, and the discussion behind him gradually became quieter and then disappeared. Xu Sui went back to continue playing chess. The women came back one after another and sat on their seats, their expressions a little more excited than before.

Xu Sui didn't care at all about how others hooked up Zhou Jingze and what his response would be. Except after he had just entered the game and glanced at it, all his attention was on the chessboard.

She likes to take the overall situation slowly, put a long line to catch big fish, and finally surround her opponents to death. The one who played chess with her was a gentle-looking man, now with his hands spread out, just as he was about to admit defeat.

An oppressive figure fell, holding a move with a clear hand, killing the sergeant with one move, and Xu Sui's bottom line was revealed.

Zhou Jingze suddenly leaned over, causing most of the people present to shift their sights, and Xu Sui who was sitting in the corner suddenly became the focus.

Xu Sui raised his eyes and ran into Zhou Jingze's eyes. He was looking at her, his eyelids lifted, and his tone was slow: "This is called a heart-piercing kill."

Her heart shrank.

The man wearing glasses didn't feel the undercurrent surging between the two, and gave a thumbs up, asking Zhou Jingze for advice: "Awesome, Xu Sui who plays such a stable chess player is about to lose to you."

Zhou Jingze smiled very lightly, cast a shocking thunder in front of everyone, and said, "Because I taught it."

The air stopped flowing, and the people present looked at each other. In just a few minutes, they experienced the emotions of admiration, admiration, and finally falling out of love, which can be described as ups and downs.

Fuck, it turns out that he just said "my man" refers to Xu Sui. It turns out that the two were entangled, and even had a deep entanglement. Bai Jiajia thought so, but couldn't help but feel a little sour.

Xu Sui's expression was calm, and he looked at the game in front of her carefully. It was not impossible. After shifting one word to the left, the scene was still reversed. There was a draw, and she didn't lose.

She spoke slowly, her voice was not loud or small, but everyone present could hear:

"I'm not just learning chess from one person."

Zhou Jingze's lower jaw line collapsed tightly, and the sloppy smile in his eyes was restrained, his gaze fell on her, looking at her.

She didn't even look at him.

At this time, there was a "slap", the light went out, and someone pushed the five-layer luxurious cake out. Li Yang finally became the center. He stood up, shook the red wine in his hand, and sighed: "It's really birthday, and I'm still a bit sad."

"What's sad, the older you get, the more handsome you are." Someone laughed.

The people outside the pool had already changed their clothes and came in. They also stood up, clapped their hands and sang a happy birthday song to Li Yang. With a "bang", the champagne spouted bubbles, and ribbons and gold fragments fell one after another.

After singing and cutting the birthday cake, I don't know who pressed the light on the wall, the red and green round lights fired, and the heavy metal music exploded in my ears.

A group of people screamed and made trouble, danced and danced, and also played games and drank.

The party has just begun.

After Xu Sui had a drink, she walked outside to watch the night view. She leaned on the glass window in a daze. Liang Shuang came over and patted her shoulder.

"I finally remembered your friend." Xu Sui turned his head to see the person and smiled.

Liang Shuang was so embarrassed that she spit out her tongue: "Hey, let's not talk about it, I don't know, only after talking about it, I found that my brother is very clingy."

"Be content with you." Xu Sui squeezed her face.

"Hey, the girls in the group are too greedy for Zhou Jingze, they can't wait to take off their clothes in front of him," Liang Shuang threw a wink at her, teasing, "Hey, what are you and Zhou Jingze doing? Ah? Li Yang is very sad. I just listened to Li Yang when he played a straight ball at you inside. He didn't want to provoke you again, right? What do you think now?"

Xu Sui shook his head and smiled: "No idea."

"Sure," Liang Shuang walked in, holding her shoulders, and said, "It's windy outside, go in and play games."

Xu Sui nodded and went in with Liang Shuang. After Xu Sui came in, Zhou Jingze kept looking at her, only her in his eyes, which caused a little change in the atmosphere.

"Hey, what are you playing?" Liang Shuang took Xu Sui and sat down.

Someone replied: "Frankness is also called Truth or Dare, do you play it?"

Xu Sui nodded, Liang Shuang sat aside, took Tan Wei's hand, and said, "Play, but you can relax a little, my boyfriend is here."

Everyone laughed, Xu Sui leaned down, picked up an apple on the table, and bit it slowly. In the first game, the bottle stopped in front of Bai Jiajia after a dozen laps.

The man who asked the question happened to be Bai Jiajia’s suitor. He squeezed a blush and asked an ambiguous question:

"Have you liked someone or something recently?"

Baijia's red nails knocked on the table, not looking at Zhou Jingze, and answered with a smile: "Yes."

"Manchester United team."

The atmosphere suddenly heated up. Someone took a breath and couldn't help admiring Bai Jiajia's high trick. It was a secret shot.

Others secretly sighed: I lost, I really couldn't play with her little bitch.

It's a pity that the person concerned was smoking a cigarette with a faint look and didn't give any response.

Bai Jiajia has always been proactive, chasing after her fierce style. The second time she turned the bottle to Zhou Jingze, Bai Jiajia looked excited, she held her chin, her face was like a peach, and asked:

"I like Manchester United too, why do you like it?"

Good guy, both announced in disguise that this was the person she liked, and also showed that the two have a common topic. With one move, Bai Jiajia blocked the roads of the few present.

Zhou Jingze reached out and flicked the soot, and slowly said: "To be honest, I am a fan of Neymar. He plays for the Brazilian national football team, but my ex-girlfriend defeated his opponent in a bet and fell in love with Manchester United— —

"So I like it too."

This answer indicated Zhou Jingze's refusal. He took the initiative to turn the bottle and started the next round of the game. Only Bai Jiajia's face was left in despair.

At the beginning of the second round, the bottle croaked around a few times and stopped in front of Liang Shuang. They were not polite at all, and directly let Liang Shuang and Tan Wei perform a live kiss.

Liang Shuang was not shy at all. The two clasped their fingers together, and they directly came to a French kiss, which made the presence scream again and again. Tan Wei blushed and said, "Although I am not red, few people know me, but sisters, please don't take pictures."

"I've taken a sneak shot." Xu Sui smiled and stuffed the little tomato into his mouth.

"You want to die." Liang Shuang gestured to hit her.

Xu Sui didn’t eat much all night. After scanning the fruit in front of him, he took a piece of cake and ate seriously. When the wine bottle was turned in front of her with a "choking", everyone looked at her. She was still a little bit. stupid.

After reacting, Xu Sui put down the cake, wiped his mouth with a tissue, smiled and said, "Speak the truth."

The other party didn't know Xu Sui very well, but Zhou Jingze's previous statement made people think that they must have a certain period, and it is not clear whether it is the past tense or the present tense, so they had to resort to the truth card.

The other party drew a card, and she carefully read the above question: "After your first love, how many relationships have you had in total?"

Bai Jiajia helped to explain: "If there is no, you just say no."

Obviously it is a very legitimate question. It seems that Zhou Jingze finally came across a topic of interest. He raised his eyelids slowly, looked directly at her, and was waiting for her to answer.

Xu Sui poured a mouthful of tongue orchids, her mouth was so spicy, she turned the glass in her hand, and saw a woman with black eyes reflected on the surface of the cup, but she was always smiling, she said openly:

"Two terms."

As soon as the voice fell, the air solidified, and the person sitting next to Zhou Jingze suddenly felt that the air pressure was very low and permeating.

Zhou Jingze's dark pupils locked her tightly, and the emotion in his eyes was like a beast about to break free, and would drown her at any time.

And Xu Sui never looked at him.

In other words, after these years apart, Xu Sui has been living forward, working hard, and seriously falling in love. There can be no him in her world.

This link was quickly revealed, and the game continued. Zhou Jingze drank glass after glass, the light moved away, and his face was half in the shadow.

Although he couldn't see his expression, everyone around him felt that he was in a bad mood.

The wine bottle banged, like a gear of fate slowly turning, and stopped in front of Zhou Jingze. Someone didn't think it was too much of a lively event, and asked, "It's the same as Xu Sui's question just now, how about it? How many relationships have you had in total?"

The person who knows Zhou Jingze best here is Liang Shuang except Xu Sui, asking a dude what kind of problem is, so she won't let him go. Liang Shuang picked up the overturned wine bottle and placed it in front of him, looking at him with a smile, his tone mocking:

"No, change the prefix. In the past five or six years, how many romances has Zhou Dasha talked about?"

Zhou Jingze’s cigarette was scarlet between his fingers, and the pile of ash fell off, burning his palm. He picked up the wine in front of him, raised his head and drank it, his voice became dumb, and he lowered his head and pulled the corner of his mouth:

"None."
