“Where are the people?” Meng Tang almost threw himself on the bar.
The bartender looked confused: "Who is it?"
"There was a girl who was drunk just now. I am her friend. Where is she?"
The bartender: "She was picked up by her friend."
"I am her friend." Meng Tang frowned, "How could you let others take her away? ?"
"That person also said he was her friend, how can you prove it?"
"You——"
"Calm down." Wei Chuan held Meng Tang's shoulder and turned to ask the bartender, "Is the person who took her away a man or a woman? When did he leave?"
"Female, she just left for five minutes."
"It could be that they were having dinner together today." Wei Chuan steadied her, "You call Xie Lingyin first, and I'll call Xu Heqing to find out what happened during the day."
The bar was noisy, and the two of them left the door, but Xie Lingyin's phone showed that it was turned off.
When did our dinner party break up during the day? Xie Lingyin went to the bar to drink alone, and now he is gone. "
"What did you say?" Xu Heqing was shocked and frightened, "Where are you?"
Wei Chuan said the address.
Xu Heqing said: "She went to the hospital in the afternoon, and I went to work on the organization. You tell me what happened."
Wei Chuan: "In the evening, Meng Tang received a call from Xie Lingyin and asked him to pick her up. But when he arrived at the bar, the bartender said that she had been taken away by a woman."
"Call the police and ask the bar to adjust the monitoring." Xu Heqing's voice was unsteady, "I'm calling Xie Lingyin now."
"Stop calling, turn off the phone."
Xu Heqing said "fuck" on the phone, Wei Chuan and Meng Tang looked at each other and decisively chose to call the police.
In less than five minutes, Xu Heqing arrived at the bar.
The police haven't arrived yet, so individuals have no right to adjust the bar's surveillance.
Xu Heqing grabbed a handful of hair and said to Meng Tang, "How could you hang up the phone at that time?"
"I——"
Wei Chuan felt unreasonable and even pushed Xu Heqing: "Why are you blaming Meng Tang? It's not like she asked Xie Lingyin to drink. To say the least, what qualifications do you have and in what capacity do you blame Meng Tang here?"
Xu Heqing also got angry:
"But Meng Tang knew that Xie Lingyin was drunk, what could not have happened in the 20 minutes on the way to the bar? What if she——"
"Xu Heqing!" Wei Chuan saw that Meng Tang's face turned pale, and he shouted, "Don't go too far."
Wei Chuan tightened his brows, and a dark sense of oppression surged in his dark pupils.
It was an anger that Xu Heqing had never seen before, and he pieced together his sanity bit by bit, and said "I'm sorry" dejectedly.
Mengtang was not frightened by the roar. She raised her head and looked at Wei Chuan, feeling warm in her heart.
She tugged at the corner of Wei Chuan's clothes: "Stop arguing, it's important to talk to Lingyin first."
Wei Chuan snorted coldly and said nothing more.
Wei Chuan became angrier as he thought about it, and turned around and grabbed Meng Tang's wrist:
"I'll take you back to school first, so that the surveillance won't detect it and some people will blame you."
"No," Meng Tang motioned him to look at the roadside, "the police are here."
The police car stopped, and the policeman came down and asked who called the police. Wei Chuan raised his hand slightly and told the policeman what had happened.
Just as they were about to enter the bar door, Meng Tang's cell phone rang.
She saw it was Shi Lan and picked it up.
Shi Lan said that Xie Lingyin was drunk and asked her to take a cup of brown sugar ginger tea through the east gate when she went back.
Meng Tang stopped abruptly: "Lingyin has gone back?"
Xu Heqing turned around and stopped, signaling Meng Tang to turn on the speakerphone.
Meng Tang hurriedly turned on the speakerphone, and Shi Lan replied on the phone: "I'm back. I don't know where I got drunk. The sister upstairs sent me back."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Mengtang hung up the phone and wanted to tell the police about the situation, but Wei Chuan stopped him, stepped forward and apologized with a smile on his face.
The policeman said: "As long as the person is fine."
Xu Heqing paused and said to Meng Tang, "I'm sorry, I had a bad attitude just now."
Meng Tang shook his head: "It's okay."
Wei Chuan stopped a car on the side of the road, opened the back door, and called Meng Tang to come over.
Xu Heqing did not move. Wei Chuan pointed to the front and motioned for him to take the passenger seat.
Getting in the car and reporting their address, the three of them remained silent, causing the driver to look at them several times.
Wei Chuan tilted his head slightly and saw Meng Tang's eyes falling on Xu Heqing in front of him. He felt an indescribable unhappiness in his heart.
The taxi soon stopped at the east gate of Z University, and Meng Tang silently went to a fresh stew restaurant that was popular with girls.
It is winter, Xie Lingyin is drunk, drinking brown sugar ginger tea can dispel the cold and warm the stomach.
Xu Heqing was outside the door and said to Wei Chuan who was beside him: "When you send her back to bed, say sorry for me."
Wei Chuan sneered coldly and swallowed "Why didn't you say it yourself?"
Seeing that he was still awkward, Xu Heqing chuckled and softened his attitude: "I don't know how to coax people, can you help me?"
Wei Chuan said "hmm" aloofly: "Let's just make it difficult."
Xu Heqing saw through it but did not say anything: "Then I will go back to the dormitory first."
He couldn’t see Xie Lingyin when he followed him, so he let her rest for one night and settle the score with her tomorrow.
Meng Tang did not see Xu Heqing when he came out, nor did he ask anything. Seeing that Wei Chuan was still following, he turned around and said, "You should go back too."
Meng Tang said "I'll take you downstairs." Wei Chuan carefully took a look at her face, "Xu Heqing is a bitch, you can even curse a few times, but I will never complain."
Meng Tang Laughing: "Why did I scold him?"
Wei Chuan said angrily "Oh": "I understand, because I like the person, so I can't let go."
Meng Tang: "...When did I say that?"
She naturally had grievances, but she had to deal with Xie Lingyin at the time, so she could only suppress her grievances.
She was inexplicably relieved when Xu Heqing disappeared after shopping just now.
Because of what happened tonight, she had some thoughts of retreating from Xu Heqing.
"Then what do you think?" Wei Chuan muttered.
"I didn't think about anything." Meng Tang said, "I just want to go upstairs quickly and bring brown sugar ginger tea to Lingyin."
Her tone was depressed. He couldn't hide it from Wei Chuan. When he got downstairs from the women's dormitory, he suddenly said: "Let me tell you a joke."
Meng Tang raised his head and said nothing. Wei Chuan thought she was waiting and said:
“My wife asked her husband to buy groceries and said, ‘Buy five buns after get off work. If you see a watermelon seller, buy one.’ But her husband brought back a bun. The wife questioned her, and her husband said that he had indeed seen a watermelon seller.”
Meng Tang looked at him without smiling.
Wei Chuan rubbed the back of his head awkwardly: "We're here, go up."
Meng Tang entered the elevator and suddenly laughed slowly.
The depressed mood improved a lot because of this hindsight.
