During an elective class in the afternoon, Zhou Chen called Ren Yifan and asked him to help with roll call, while he stayed in the dormitory to watch the stock market.
He just bought a car and spent another 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, so now that his savings are running out, making money has naturally become his top priority.
Because he is still a college student, he doesn't want to go to any trouble to start a business, so making money through the financial stock market is the best choice.
Eating snacks, playing with mobile phones, and looking at the computer, my life was very relaxed and happy.
It is said that the few years in college are the most enjoyable and relaxing period in life, and Zhou Chen agrees very much.
Although I felt less stressed when I was a kid, I was still very naive and didn't have much to play at that time, unlike in college where you could play whatever you wanted.
The snacks in the drawer were not bought by him, but Yu Hao specially replenished them for him after his living expenses arrived. Not only were they in the drawer, but there were also a bunch of them in the cabinet.
These snacks alone were much more than the two hundred yuan he lent.
This also shows that Yu Hao is not the kind of person who only takes advantage. The correct way to get along is to go back and forth.
At three o'clock, Zhou Chen closed the computer and prepared to go to bed and lie down for a while.
But before he fell asleep, his cell phone rang. When he looked at the caller ID, it was Lin Luoxue.
"Hey, Lin..."
Before the words could be spoken, Lin Luoxue on the opposite side started to say a lot of words.
"Well, okay, then I'll go over and wait for you."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chen quickly got dressed. From the phone, he could tell that something was wrong with Lin Luoxue's tone. It seemed that something must have happened to her.
It seems that Lin Luoxue really regards him as a good friend. Every time something unpleasant happens, she comes to see him.
This is a very dangerous thing.
Zhou Chen has always felt that it is difficult to have an absolute friendship between men and women unless they always maintain a certain distance.
If they are together often, or if something happens clearly, they will think of each other immediately and seek comfort, then it will be easy to transcend the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend.
As for male best friends and female best friends, 99% of them are bullshit, unless there is a problem with one party's orientation.
In the world of Let's Get Married, although Yang Tao and Jiao Yang claim to be best friends, in fact, they maintain a considerable distance when they get along.
When Zhou Chen came to his parking spot, he found Lin Luoxue already standing next to his car.
"Open the door."
When Lin Luoxue saw Zhou Chen coming over, she said directly without talking nonsense.
As soon as Zhou Chen unlocked the car, she opened the rear door and got into the back seat.
Zhou Chen closed the car door for Lin Luoxue, and then walked to the cab. As soon as he opened the car door and before he got in, he heard Lin Luoxue crying.
"..."
Zhou Chen looked at the back row and saw Lin Luoxue with her head lowered, leaning on the back of the front seat, covering her face with her hands, crying quietly.
He did not speak, but silently retracted his feet, closed the car door, and left Lin Luoxue crying in the car alone.
He didn't know what happened to Lin Luoxue, but at this time, it was better not to disturb her and let her cry indulgently.
I walked to the roadside, took out my mobile phone, and played a small game by myself.
A full twenty minutes passed before Lin Luoxue opened the car door again.
"Zhou Chen, get in the car."
Zhou Chen then returned to the car and turned around to see Lin Luoxue's eyes still red.
"Thank you, Zhou Chen, for giving me a place to cry."
Zhou Chen didn't ask the reason, but just consoled him: "When you're done crying, cheer up."
Lin Luoxue said in a hoarse voice: "I've been crying for so long, is this how you comfort me?"
Zhou Chen said: "That's because I think you are such a strong person and you don't need comfort at all."
"You really have confidence in me. I don't even have confidence in myself."
Lin Luoxue was speechless. She didn't expect Zhou Chen to say that, but there was nothing wrong with what Zhou Chen said. If it hadn't made her too sad, she wouldn't have cried like this.
If Zhou Chen asked, she might really tell Zhou Chen now, even if it would embarrass herself.
But Zhou Chen didn't ask, so she naturally didn't want to say anything.
In fact, the reason why she was so sad today was because of something Jiang Yunming said to her unintentionally.
In order to prevent Jiang Yunming from holding Lu Qiaochuan responsible, she helped Jiang Yunming take notes these days and visited him frequently.
But Jiang Yunming had some evil thoughts about her, and he spoke too fiercely today, touching on her weak points, which made her almost lose her temper and fall out on the spot.
Afterwards, the more she thought about it, the sadder she became. She wanted to find a place to vent, but looking around, she found that there was no space for her to vent. Finally, she thought of Zhou Chen. She thought that Zhou Chen had a car, so she could have a place to vent.
space.
Zhou Chen said: "It's easy to forget sad things. I'll take you to a place to go crazy?"
When Lin Luoxue heard this, she immediately asked nervously: "What do you want to do?"
Zhou Chen rolled his eyes: "You are really sentimental. I have a girlfriend. If necessary, I will not find you in this state."
Lin Luoxue, who was a little nervous at first, immediately became unhappy when she heard this.
"What do you mean, how am I worse than your girlfriend?"
"Stop, let's not discuss this topic any more. As I said, I'm different from the boys you've met. If I go crazy, I can do anything."
Lin Luoxue knew the truth of stopping at the point, so she did not dwell on this topic, but asked: "Where are you taking me?"
"Do you dare to go to the bar?"
"bar?"
Lin Luoxue was shocked when she heard this.
Although she usually behaves very casually, when it comes down to it, she has never done anything bad like a bastard.
It was not that she had never been to places like bars, but only rarely, and she always stayed away from them.
Because she knew very well what the purpose of most of the men who went to the bar was, and the bar was very chaotic, so she didn't dare to go.
"Isn't it a bit dangerous to go to a bar?"
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "The bar is not as exaggerated as you said. Times have changed. If the business is open now, if it is really chaotic, it will not last long. Besides, with me here, even five or six people can't get close."
Body, what are you afraid of?"
Zhou Chen rarely went to places like bars. It was okay to clear the bar, but he felt it would be too noisy if he moved to the bar.
But with Lin Luoxue's current situation, there was no harm in letting her vent, so he thought of taking Lin Luoxue to a bar to indulge.
Seeing Zhou Chen's confidence, Lin Luoxue thought about it for a second and responded: "Okay then."
"Wait a minute, I'll search online to see which bar in the city is more legitimate."
Zhou Chen took out his mobile phone and started searching the Internet. After a few minutes, he started the car and left the campus.
However, Zhou Chen did not go to the bar immediately because it was only after four o'clock and there were still several hours before the bar opened, so he planned to go to the city first and then go to the bar after eating. He couldn't go to the disco bar hungry.
An hour later, they arrived at a restaurant near the bar.
After sitting down in the restaurant, Zhou Chen handed the menu to Lin Luoxue: "Eat something to fill your stomach first. When you go to the bar later, you will definitely need to exercise a lot and use up your energy."
"Is it that exaggerated? It's not like I've never been there before," Lin Luoxue said.
"That's different. I brought you here today just to let you vent. If you sit still, it's nothing to vent. Listen to me, you will feel better after venting."
Zhou Chen is not disgusted with the existence of bars. He is not the kind of moral saint. Even if he is a saint, sometimes he needs to indulge.
Although a place like a bar is not a nice place, it is not as scary as many people imagine.
Because Zhou Chen and the others were not in a hurry, they ate their meal for a long time and stayed in the restaurant for a while before heading to the bar.
Zhou Chen and Lin Luoxue stopped in front of a bar called ‘Bianhua’.
"Bianganhua, you really dare to rise."
Zhou Chen brought Lin Luoxue, who was slightly nervous, to the door of the bar. Looking at the sign, he was curious about what the bar owner was thinking.
However, despite the strange name, the business of this bar is really good. It is only after six o'clock, and there are already many people in the bar, including many men and women in neat suits and exquisitely dressed clothes.
"I searched online and found that this bar has a good environment. However, no matter how good the environment is, there will inevitably be uninterested people. Be careful and don't let others take advantage of you."
In a place like a bar, women have an advantage, but they are also prone to disadvantage. It all depends on how they position themselves.
But Zhou Chen knew Lin Luoxue. Although Lin Luoxue acted boldly in front of her classmates and got along well with many boys, in fact, Zhou Chen had never seen any boy in the school who could take advantage of Lin Luoxue.
Yes, even Lu Qiaochuan didn't have this opportunity.
Lin Luoxue said: "I know how to protect myself."
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "This place is different from school. Everyone in school is a student and it is impossible to do anything to you. But here, if you really encounter a lunatic, they will do anything."
The possibility of this is relatively low, but no one can guarantee that it will not happen.
Zhou Chen is no stranger to places like bars. Not to mention that he has opened a bar before, even in so many worlds, he has been to bars frequently and has also looked for women in bars.
There are not many people there yet, the big stage has not started yet, the music is only playing soft music, and the guests are all sitting together in twos and threes, chatting and drinking.
Zhou Chen called the staff, asked for a booth, and took Lin Luoxue to sit there.
After sitting down, Lin Luoxue looked at Zhou Chen in surprise: "Looking at you, it seems like you have been to places like this often?"
"It's true that I've been here often, but that was many years ago."
He couldn't remember how many years ago he last went to a bar, but he was certain that it must have been a long time ago.
Lin Luoxue smiled and said: "How old are you? It was many years ago. How old were you when you came to a bar?"
"That's right. Smile more. Of course, when I say smile, I mean a smile from the heart, not a fake smile."
"Hate."
Lin Luoxue rolled her eyes. This was not the first time Zhou Chen said she was fake. She had long been used to it.
"Drink some beer first. Don't drink too much. If you get drunk, I will be in trouble."
Zhou Chen pushed a glass of beer in front of Lin Luoxue.
Lin Luoxue winked at him: "Wouldn't it be better if I was drunk? You can do to me whatever you want?"
Zhou Chen: "I told you not to do this to me. If I really do anything to you, you won't be able to bear it, so you'd better stop teasing me."
"screw you."
Time passed by, and at around eight o'clock, a large group of people gathered in the bar, and loud music was played. Countless men and women walked onto the dance floor and started various twisting dances.
Zhou Chen said to Lin Luoxue: "After sitting for so long, let's go over and dance for a while, let's indulge."
"OK."
Lin Luoxue did not refuse. She was not a shy little girl. Since she had already come over with Zhou Chen, of course she would not be coy.
The two walked into the crowd. At first, Lin Luoxue couldn't let go and twisted slowly. However, she was quickly affected by the people around her and slowly let go of her heavy heart and began to dance to her heart's content.
Zhou Chen could tell at a glance that Lin Luoxue must have studied dancing, but she was not very good at it. But because of her good figure and good looks, her dancing was still very eye-catching.
No, in just a few minutes, Zhou Chen blocked seven or eight men who wanted to get close to Lin Luoxue.
Perhaps because Zhou Chen was there to protect her, Lin Luoxue jumped even more wantonly, and even roared loudly when she was enjoying herself.
Although her voice was not quiet, it seemed insignificant under the loud and mixed sound.
There were many men who wanted to get close to Lin Luoxue, but none of them were shameless. After being blocked by Zhou Chen, they did not come forward again. There were only two or three people who wanted to get close many times, but Zhou Chen secretly targeted a few of them.
I didn't dare to get any closer.
Lin Luoxue danced in the crowd for about twenty minutes, until she was exhausted, and then followed Zhou Chen and slowly returned to the booth to rest.
Even if you move the bar, you can't keep going crazy and vigorously. After a while, it's time for the bar's main singer to take the stage.
"How are you? Are you feeling better?" Zhou Chen asked Lin Luoxue.
Lin Luoxue drank the beer in her glass in one gulp, took a breath, and replied loudly: "It's much better, it's so enjoyable. Thank you, Zhou Chen."
Zhou Chen said: "No need to thank you, we are friends, aren't we?"
Lin Luoxue showed a bright smile: "Yes, we are good friends."
After a while, Zhou Chen suddenly said to Lin Luoxue: "Wait for me here while I go to the toilet."
Lin Luoxue nodded and said, "Well, you go ahead."
Zhou Chen stood up, took just two steps, and said a little uneasily: "If someone comes to you later, you should be able to handle it, right?"
Lin Luoxue smiled and said, "I'm not a good girl like Shu Ci, so don't worry about me."
Zhou Chen smiled and left.
Lin Luoxue sat there. After Zhou Chen left, several men did come over to strike up a conversation, but she dealt with them all easily.
After more than ten minutes, Zhou Chen still didn't come back, which made her a little nervous. She wanted to go find Zhou Chen, but thinking of Zhou Chen's past performance, nothing would happen, so she sat down with peace of mind.
Just as she was drinking and looking around in boredom, she suddenly heard a different sound coming from the stage.
"Hello everyone, next, a gentleman named Zhou will come on stage to sing a song for his friend. Everyone is welcome."
Although there are resident singers in the bar, there are often customers who take the initiative to pay money to sing on stage, so the number of people in the bar is no longer surprising.
Only Lin Luoxue looked at the stage in surprise. The gentleman named Zhou, and Zhou Chen had been away for a while, it was hard for her not to think of Zhou Chen.
As if to verify her conjecture, the next moment, a man walked onto the stage. Even though he was far away, the light shone on him and she still recognized him at a glance.
"Zhou Chen?"
Even with a character like Lin Luoxue, when she saw Zhou Chen on stage, she couldn't help but cover her mouth, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"That man just said he wanted to sing a song for me?"
After the shock, she was suddenly very moved. Growing up, there were only a few people who really cared about her. Zhou Chen, a classmate she had known for just over two months, was already considered her best friend.
Since she was so lonely, it was impossible for anyone to sing for her. Even if there were, it would be love songs for her.
Although she doesn't know what kind of brother Zhou Chen wants to play, she believes that Zhou Chen is definitely different from the boys who pursued her in the past.
At this moment, she was inexplicably looking forward to it.
Zhou Chen stood on the stage, being watched by so many people, without any pressure and calmly.
"Hello everyone, a good friend of mine was wronged today and feels particularly uncomfortable. As a friend, I will sing a song for her here, hoping to restore her good mood."
"The name of this song is "Courage". Because it is a new song composed by myself, without accompaniment, I will sing it a cappella. I hope she will like it, and I hope everyone will like it."
"Wow~"
"..."
Many people booed and shouted. Zhou Chen's behavior was admired by many people. Not everyone has the courage to stand on the stage and sing, and it is also a cappella. If you can't sing well, it will be a small loss of face. You can't tell.
You will be scolded miserably.
Zhou Chen didn't care what the people below thought, he began to prepare his emotions and prepare to sing.
After coming to this world, he had already searched, and the song "Courage" did not appear in this world, so he did not feel any pressure to bring it out. Unfortunately, there was no accompaniment, and the live effect was much worse.
"I finally made this decision, no matter what others say, I don't care..."
Although this song is a love song, it also has a healing effect. It makes people don't care about other people's opinions, just love yourself.
It wouldn't be a big problem if Zhou Chen sang to comfort Lin Luoxue.
Zhou Chen was a leader in the music industry in the past. Even if he sang a cappella, he would be inferior to most singers in the entertainment industry, let alone such a classic song.
From the chaos at the beginning, the scene gradually became quieter, and even the lights became softer and no longer flashed wildly.
When I move, there is only the sound of a cappella singing. This is indeed surprising, but at this moment, it is really happening.
In just two or three minutes, Lin Luoxue's expression changed countless times.
After singing the song, Zhou Chen did not stay on the stage and walked off the stage quickly.
There were many people in the bar who were attracted by Zhou Chen's song, but Zhou Chen walked very fast, and by the time they reacted, no one was in sight.
To the people in the bar, this was just an episode.
On the contrary, the singers resident in the bar paid special attention to Zhou Chen and wanted to get to know Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen didn't want to communicate with them more, and there was nothing they could do.
Back at the booth, as soon as Zhou Chen sat down, Lin Luoxue suddenly came closer and pressed her whole body against him.
