“Yeah?” Jiang Xiaobai looked at Xiao Su. “I don’t know this man. Is there any problem?” she asked nonchalantly.
The waiter was quite confused. “You don’t know him? I saw that you guys had a lot of fun talking to each other, and you looked quite close to him.”
Jiang Xiaobai was speechless upon hearing that.
Had a lot of fun talking to him? Close to him? What the f*ck? We seldom use this phrase even in novels! Meanwhile, Fang Tangtang sensed a hint of gossip here, so she leaned over immediately.
“Hmm, this man looks decent from his back view. Did you pick him up just now?”
Jiang Xiaobai eyed Fang Tangtang speechlessly. “Do you think I look like that type of person?”
“Although you seem like a dead corpse who doesn’t have any needs on the surface, who knows whether you are wildly passionate underneath.”
What on earth do you mean by that? Dead corpse? Wildly passionate?
Jiang Xiaobai glared at the waiter before saying fiercely, “Who told you that we’re close? If you continue to speak nonsense, I’ll sue you for slandering! If I knew him, I would never leave him alone in this drunken state. So it’s obvious that I don’t know him!”
The waiter touched his nose in embarrassment upon hearing her protest.
That makes sense too.
If they knew each other, she wouldn’t leave him alone.
“Xiaobai, you don’t usually chat with strangers. I don’t believe that you don’t know him. Tell me who this man is, quick!”
Jiang Xiaobai paused for a moment before replying, “I don’t know this person. Please stop asking, and let’s just leave here.”
With that, Jiang Xiaobai dragged Fang Tangtang out of the pub, but Fang Tangtang did not believe her and continued to ask her.
Once they were out of the pub, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly felt troubled as soon as she saw the empty streets. She thought of Xiao Su, who was so drunk that he was unconscious. The pub definitely would not let him sleep in there for too long, and they would definitely throw him out once they were closed for the day.
At this time, there weren’t many people on the streets either. Would he be in danger? One of Jiang Xiaobai’s biggest weaknesses was that she was soft-hearted. If Xiao Su were just a stranger, she wouldn’t care about him. But she knew him, and he even gave her some money before this.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly stopped walking with a pensive look on her face.
Seeing that she had stopped, Fang Tangtang immediately wanted to gossip around. “So? You regret your decision and want to go back?”
Jiang Xiaobai wanted to deny as soon as she saw the look on Fang Tangtang’s face, but if she did that, she would have to go home first before coming here again.
She didn’t have the energy nor the time to do this.
After thinking about it, Jiang Xiaobai spoke directly, “You should go back first.”
Fang Tangtang grabbed her wrist tightly. “See? I knew that something was going on here! You’re going back for the man at the bar, aren’t you? You even lied to me that you didn’t know him! If you really didn’t know him, why would you go back for him? Xiaobai, who is he? What is the relationship between you guys? Are you guys in a relationship?”
Jiang Xiaobai paused before saying, “Are you interrogating me? I don’t want to reply to any of your questions. Anyway, just go back alone first.”
Seeing that Fang Tangtang still wanted to say something, Jiang Xiaobai said something that stopped her immediately. “If not, I won’t accompany you to events like today’s anymore.”
Fang Tangtang’s eager look for gossip immediately darkened upon hearing that. “Hmph, so what if I go back with you? If the man is still unconscious, can you lift him by yourself? I can still help you if I go with you.”
Hearing her explanation, Jiang Xiaobai thought that it made sense. If Xiao Su remained unconscious, she didn’t have the strength to carry him by herself. On top of that, there were no downsides to asking Fang Tangtang to do some labor work with her.
“Sure, you can help me out later, but don’t be a busybody.”
Fang Tangtang immediately nodded. “Don’t worry. I definitely won’t say anything about him.”
The waiter was still looking at Xiao Su worriedly. However, after thinking from another perspective, he didn’t care about it anymore. After all, many customers got drunk here, so he would just wait to see if Xiao Su was going to wake up later.
While thinking about it, he suddenly saw the two women returning. His eyes lit up, and he wanted to say something as soon as Jiang Xiaobai reached his front.
However, she interrupted him fiercely before he could say anything.
“I know what’s on your mind, but please keep your mouth shut. Otherwise, I’ll just leave him here!”
When she was speaking, she widened her eyes deliberately to look stern.
The waiter looked at Jiang Xiaobai in shock as she pushed Xiao Su. “Hey, wake up! Wake up!”
However, Xiao Su was beyond drunk right now while he just lay there without budging. Not giving up, Jiang Xiaobai poked him countless times, but there was no reaction from him either.
Fang Tangtang, who was standing behind her, said, “Stop poking him. He is obviously drunk. Even if you punch a hole in him, he won’t wake up.”
“Forget it. Let’s move him.”
Jiang Xiaobai offered to move him valiantly and walked forward to hook one of Xiao Su’s arms on her shoulder so that his weight was on her. Then, she tried to make him stand up with her as the support.
As Xiao Su was sitting initially, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t feel that it was too much. However, as soon as his weight left the chair and fell entirely on her, Jiang Xiaobai finally understood the immense weight he laid on her.
F*ck!
Jiang Xiaobai almost couldn’t breathe. If she hadn’t widened her legs to stabilize herself, she would have probably fallen right now.
Seeing Jiang Xiaobai’s situation, Fang Tangtang rushed over to help her immediately. Both of them were prepared to leave with Xiao Su when the waiter at the bar wanted to say something again. “Err…”
“Shut up!”
And the waiter didn’t utter another word helplessly.
Who have I offended today? Why can’t I say a word? This woman is so fierce!
However, after thinking the amount of beer Xiao Su had drunk, the waiter felt that he had to speak out, so he blurted out in one go, “Miss, this mister hasn’t paid for his beer tonight!”
What?
Jiang Xiaobai tripped, almost falling down.
He hasn’t paid for the bill? After thinking about it, she told Fang Tangtang, “Support him for a while so that I can see if he has his wallet on him.”
“No problem.”
Hence, Jiang Xiaobai started searching Xiao Su’s body. Finally, she found his wallet in his pocket and smiled slyly. After she took it and walked to the bar, she found out that there were only two hundred bucks in it, his ID, and a bank card.
Jiang Xiaobai was speechless upon seeing that. She looked at the waiter resentfully before asking, “Why didn’t you ask him to pay beforehand?”
If they had done that, she wouldn’t be troubled with this right now. In the end, she still had to pay for him first.
After the bill was settled, Jiang Xiaobai and Fang Tangtang finally walked out of the pub with Xiao Su and hailed a cab.
However, as soon as they put him in the cab, Fang Tangtang received a call from her family, and her expression changed immediately. “Xiaobai, my family may have found out that I sneaked out to have fun tonight. I have to go back now. Ciao!”
