"Alright, the love between the two of you will be paused for a moment. It's peaceful, I forgot one thing … Show me your hand. I heard it was injured! " the Chinese egret suddenly said.
Xu Taiping looked away from Jiufang Nian Lan, then looked at Hua Gun and said, "You were slow on the uptake, did you remember that my hand was injured?"
"I'm not your relative, and I'm not your lover. How could I possibly remember so much? Take advantage of the fact that I still remember, and let me see!" the Chinese egret said.
Xu Taiping nodded and took off his gloves.
"The situation isn't too good!" The Chinese egret glanced at Xu Taiping's right hand, and then reached out to touch it. "Do you feel anything?"
"Yes. "My right hand has been recovering, but it has been recovering very slowly. There is a force that is destroying my hand, preventing it from recovering!" Xu Taiping said.
The Chinese egret brought over a table from the side for Xu Taiping to place his hand on it. Then, the Chinese egret opened a bag he carried with him.
Inside the bag was a bunch of silver needles.
The Chinese egret picked up the silver needle and then stabbed it into Xu Taiping's hand one by one.
Xu Taiping counted, and the Chinese egret stabbed a total of thirty-six needles into his hand.
After doing all this, the Chinese egret took out a pill and handed it to Xu Taiping.
"Eat it!" the Chinese egret said.
Xu Taiping didn't ask any further questions and just ate the pill.
"How do you feel now?" the Chinese egret asked.
"It doesn't feel anything, it just hurts." Xu Taiping said.
The egret frowned as it pulled out silver needles one by one.
"This is already beyond my capabilities. There's nothing I can do about it." the Chinese egret said.
It's just that I'm a little slow, I'll just have to wait patiently for a while. I'm fine, my hand is still recovering, it's just that I'm a little slow, I'll just have to patiently wait for a while. Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"You are a right-handed person, so you can't use your right hand right now. How about I go with you tonight? " The Chinese egret frowned.
"You're coming with me? What can you do? " Xu Taiping asked.
"One more person is still enough to help, right?" the Chinese egret said.
"Forget it." Xu Taiping shook his head, "One more push and it'll give me a bit more of my heart. I'd better not go."
"That's up to you." The Chinese egret shrugged.
"I don't know why, but I keep having the feeling that you're a little different." Xu Taiping stared at the Chinese egret and said.
"What difference can I make? "You think too much." The Chinese egret avoided Xu Taiping's eyes, pretending to be relaxed as it spoke.
"Really?" Maybe I was overthinking it. " Xu Taiping smiled.
"I was just thinking too much." The Chinese egret looked out of the window as it spoke, seemingly unwilling to continue chatting with Xu Taiping.
Time passed, and soon it was dark.
To Xu Taiping's surprise, Lin Qiu Ling and Wen Qiang came back after dark. However, this time, they didn't bring any luggage, and instead brought food for Jiufang Chaoyang to eat.
Xu Taiping could feel that they were here to curry favor with Jiufang Nian Lan. Xu Taiping didn't object to this fawning, so he didn't tell them to scram.
Around 9 pm, Xu Taiping left the mansion and drove towards the Bai Du Nightless City.
The Everlasting City was the only nightclub in the city that Xu Taiping stayed in. From this, it could be seen how backward the city was.
However, although the city was quite backward, there were still a lot of people in the bar. There was a lot of luxury cars parked in front of the door, and there was a fairly high-end Porsche 911 among them. Xu Taiping looked at the license plate and found that the license plate of this car matched the one he had found in Ronnie Sanlang's 911.
It was clear that Ronnie was playing here tonight.
Xu Taiping tidied up his clothes, then walked into the nightclub.
The night shop was full of the smell of the city and the countryside.
Whether it was the music in the nightclub, the decor, or even the girls, they all gave off a very rustic aura. Xu Taiping even saw a few girls wearing hot pants, thin stockings and muffin shoes wriggling on the dance floor. Everything about them made this bar's rustic.
Xu Taiping looked around and found the target in a booth right in front of the stage.
"Sir, do you have a reservation?" A waiter came over and asked.
"No, find me a place, hmm..." "Let's do it there." Xu Taiping pointed to a booth not far away. This booth was located right behind Ronnie Sanlang's.
"Yes, sir, please come with me!" The waiter said as he led Xu Taiping into the booth.
Long Nisan who sat in front of Xu Taiping turned his head to look at Xu Taiping. After realizing that they didn't know each other, he started to play with the woman next to him.
Xu Taiping sat down on the sofa and casually ordered a bottle of wine. While the waiter went to get the wine, he observed Long Nisan.
Ronnie Saunders was always dressed up as a trendsetter, at least in a country place like this, he was definitely one of the vanguard.
There was a three-kilogram bottle of famous men on the table. Beside him were a few men and women around the same age. It seemed like they were Ronnie Sanlang's friends.
Sitting next to him was a small bee sitting in a bar, playing dice with him for a long time. There was a number plate hanging from his waist, which was pretty good-looking, except that the clothes were a little dusty. Of course, this kind of dirt in Xu Taiping's eyes could already be considered a tidal wave in this bar.
The music in the bar wasn't loud, because it was only 9 o'clock at the moment, and all it played were some warm music.
There were many people here, so it was not suitable for a fight. Once a fight broke out, it would easily cause a huge sensation, and furthermore, he did not know much about Gu Masters and did not know how they fought.
"I can only wait until the end of the bar before making my move!" Xu Taiping made up his mind.
"Sir, is your friend not here yet?" The waiter walked over and asked with a smile.
Friend?
Xu Taiping paused for a moment, then noticed that he had ordered some wine. However, he was the only one in the booth.
Hearing the voice, Long Nisan turned his head and looked at Xu Taiping.
"My friend is on his way!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"Then why don't we exchange the wine first? Or wait until your friend arrives? " the waiter asked.
"Wait a minute. "Go ahead and do what you need to do." Xu Taiping waved his hand.
The waiter nodded, then turned and left.
Watching the waiter leave, Xu Taiping thought for a moment, then picked up his phone and sent a message to Jiufang Nianlan.
Not long after, Jiufang Nian Lan replied with a text message.
"Are you sure?" Jiufang Nian Lan asked.
"Un, I'm sure!" Xu Taiping replied.
"Alright, I understand!"
Half an hour later.
The two of them went into the bar.
After the two entered the bar, they walked straight towards Xu Taiping's booth.
"Brother-in-law!"
"Brother-in-law!"
The two looked at Xu Taiping and greeted him warmly.
These two were no other than Wen Qiang and Wu Qiang.
"Sit down!" Xu Taiping waved them to sit down.
The two of them sat down in a somewhat reserved manner.
"The reason I asked you to come here tonight is because I want to drink with you. You're my lover's brothers after all. No matter what, kinship can't be cut off, right?" Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Wen Qiang nodded his head and said, "Brother-in-law, I've always wanted to tell you this. Family relationships are eternal and unchangeable. I've done a lot of wrong before, and now I've come to a realization. Brother-in-law, can you forgive me?"
"Of course, there are no obstacles, right? "Alright, I'll just drink tonight. As for everything else, there's no need for me to say anything else!" Xu Taiping said.
"There's no need to talk about alcohol. Brother-in-law, come, let me toast you!" Wu Qiang picked up a cup of wine and said.
Xu Taiping smiled and nodded. He picked up the wine bottle and clinked it with Wu Qiang's. Then, he looked over at Long Nisan. Long Nisan was currently playing a game with someone beside him, so he didn't notice Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping took a sip of the wine and put down his wine cup. He looked at Wen Qiang and Wu Qiang in front of him.
The reason he invited them to drink with him tonight was naturally not to let the past stand out, but just to not let himself be too out of place. After all, there was no customer in the entire bar who came by himself, and sitting alone in a booth would seem very sudden no matter what. Xu Taiping had heard from the White Heron that the Gu Master was much more sensitive than the average person, so it would not be good if he attracted Long Nisan's attention or even became cautious because of his sudden appearance.
Xu Taiping could clearly feel that after Wen Qiang and Wu Qiang's arrival, the number of times that Long Nisan had looked at him decreased significantly.
As time passed, the atmosphere in the bar became more and more lively, and more and more customers arrived.
The sounds of music, dancing and dice shaking mixed together, making it hard for people to hear what they were saying even when they were face to face.
Xu Taiping and a few other ladies came over, all of them with drinks at the nightclub. Wen Qiang and Wu Qiang didn't have much money, so they rarely came to this kind of place.
While playing, Xu Taiping kept an eye on Long Nisan and the whole club.
According to Xu Taiping's observation, this nightclub was a flower garden.
Xu Taiping also had a flower garden under his hand. As the name implied, guests would give a girl a flower wreath or something in exchange for the girl's love.
At around 12 PM, all the girls in the bar all went up on stage. Following that, the DJ on the spot loudly shouted, "Ladies and gentlemen, tonight's Flower King Competition has officially begun. Please present to your beloved beauties and help them become the Flower King tonight!"
As soon as the DJ's voice rang out, Ronnie Sanlang calmly raised his hand and called for the waiter.
Not long after, the waitress brought a bunch of cloaks and other things to the stage and put them on the woman who had been drinking with Ronnie Sanlang.
"Thank you young master Ronnie Sanlang for the 18,800 yuan gift support for # 999. It seems that today, our Ronnie Sanlang is going to praise our # 999 as the King of Flowers!" DJ shouted.
Hearing the DJ's words, Xu Taiping slightly raised his eyebrows and thought of something.
