Chapter 202: Moths to the Fire

When I received the call from Meng Yang, it was already eight o'clock in the evening. He told me that he and Du Cheng were almost at the Northeast Barbecue Restaurant and asked me to take a taxi. I sat up from the bed, rubbed my sleepy eyes, put on a random coat, and then went out.

Relying on the barbecue restaurant not far from my home, I had a luxury once and stopped a taxi downstairs. When I arrived, I happened to see the two driving the first beer tonight.

"Chen Mo, you are late, so I will punish you first." Du Cheng said with a wicked smile on his face.

I looked at the two of them for a moment and sat down casually, "Go to your uncle, you guys are blind. It's obvious that you just started the first drink." As I said that, I also opened a Yanjing for myself, "Here, let's go together."

"What am I saying? This grandson won't eat your set." Meng Yang took over the conversation, "It just happened to be ordering the string. See what else you want?"

"Don't, I'm not Du Cheng. Every time I come, I have to eat a lot of waist. It's enough to have meat skewers."

"Hahaha" Meng Yang was amused by me, while Du Cheng had a flies expression on his face. After being silent for a long time, he finally started to curse: "I'll fuck you uncle!"

"Don't you have a No. 1 in Houhai? Maybe you can find like-minded comrades."

"Chen Mo, your mouth is really bad." Meng Yang gave me a thumbs up, then turned his head and said to Du Cheng: "Don't quarrel with him, you don't know what he did before."

Du Cheng sneered, without saying a word, poured a glass of wine on his own and took it up.

"Follow it, your brother Du is going to have a drink with you for a daze!"

"Just drink it." I smiled and raised my glass.

This atmosphere made me feel relaxed from the inside out. The brothers are so pure. No matter what I experienced during the day or what was wrong, there was not so much interest.

It's great to meet such brothers in Beijing.

Thinking of this, my heart that had been depressed for a long time became much more refreshed.

After three rounds of wine, more than a dozen wines were placed scattered under our feet.

"Boss, please help warm up the meat skewers." Du Cheng waved his hand and greeted.

Taking advantage of this gap, he handed me a cigarette and lit it for me. He asked, "I heard from Yoko, are you going to be a fool?"

"Can you talk?" I asked back.

"Why, do you want me to describe you as a hero?" Du Cheng raised his lips, "Mo'er, you are really impulsive. Have you really thought about it?"

"I didn't think about it, can I do it?"

"Ha, although brothers should support you without hesitation, what you want to do is really irrational. I advise you to change some other way."

"I know you are kind-hearted. Yoko told me all the things you said in the morning." After taking a sip of the cigarette, spit out an irregular smoke ring, I looked at the two of them and said firmly: "But some things should be done. From a certain perspective, I have a responsibility to do these things Zhang Yao has experienced. Now I am just paying off my debts. What's more, I no longer work as a lawyer. If I have that practice certificate, what's the difference?"

“In Beijing, that’s true.”

Meng Yang lit a cigarette, "But have you ever thought about what if you leave Beijing one day?"

"If you go home or go to Chenyang Zhan in the future, relying on your experience and the lawsuits you have fought, it is not difficult to find a well-paid job or if you get into the court, you can add a lot of points."

""

Yes, I have never thought about these questions. Even if I have thought about them, they are just the darkest period of my life. I am very good now. Although I am still tired and confused, I am determined to stay in Beijing.

But, things in the world are impermanent. Can I really stay here forever? What is the meaning of staying here? Can I protect Zhang Yao?

These questions appeared in my mind as soon as I ran away.

"I" opened my mouth, but I didn't know what I should say. They are my brothers and my most concerned friends in this city. They are both drifting in Beijing and they are very practical in their view of problems.

"Mo'er, I know what you think, and I know you like that girl." Du Cheng turned off the cigarette and drank a glass of wine on his own. "But you also need to know that people like us cannot enter that circle unless you have the luck of being against the will of heaven and won dozens of times in a row."

"I know." I smiled bitterly, and this time I didn't deny it, "I just think she is pitiful. She seems very glorious, but in fact she is very desolate behind her. Do you know? When I saw her wet eyes, I felt heartbroken. I was hurt like a needle, but I couldn't do anything, but this time it was different."

"I can solve the problem she encountered this time! I want to tell those people that I can't bully the woman I like!" Maybe it was because of alcohol, maybe it was because I was suppressed for too long, and I didn't say these things from my mouth, and I said them.

"Idiot."

Du Cheng laughed and cursed, stood up, raised his hand and pointed at me, "Chen Mo, since you want to do this, just do it, damn it, love is really something that a bitch."

"We won't have love."

"Then why do you have to?" Meng Yang shook his head, "If you can see hope, it is understandable to do something for your own woman, but you are a moth to the fire, do you know?"

"Hmm." I nodded and responded.

Moths to the fire were the result I had already thought of after I decided to take care of this matter. Zhang Yao confessed to me. I would not tell anyone about this kind of thing. Similarly, I would not tell Zhang Yao that there is no possibility of being together between us.

To put it bluntly, I can't get over the word "difference".

So, isn’t this a kind of compensation?

I even thought of the consequences after I completed this matter. Since Qi Yu called me in the afternoon, I have already started to think of the consequences. He is rich and powerful here, he is also a shareholder of Borui, and Dong Shuhan's close partner. After I achieved my goal, I will definitely not be able to stay in Borui. Even for Zhang Yao, I can't stay there anymore.

At that time, I lost my practice certificate and I, who didn’t have other skills, might have really gone home in shame like what Du Cheng and Meng Yang said?

But I can't control that much, right?
