At 8:30 PM, Qin Baobao drove her bestie and younger brother to the KTV they had arranged to meet at, parking the red BMW in the parking space in front.
In front of the KTV entrance, two women and four men were waiting, standing beneath the shifting neon lights, chatting casually. Two of the men stood a little apart, talking and smoking.
Qin Ze knew most of Qin Baobao's besties. Chen Qinghong was a cold and beautiful woman, scoring a seven in Qin Ze's book. She was tall, about the same height as Qin Baobao, with a slender waist, long legs, and straight black hair. Unfortunately, her chest was within the common range for Chinese women, barely a B cup. Her boyfriend was a Fudan senior, and they worked at the same company after graduation.
Zhang Ya, if she had to be described in one sentence, would be "sultry vixen." She had wavy chestnut hair, fashionable and trendy, and with her superb makeup skills, she could compete with Qin Baobao in beauty. She had big breasts and a curvy butt, the type of woman who exuded sex appeal. Qin Ze gave her an eight. Every time this woman saw Qin Ze, she liked to tell dirty jokes and tease him, this virgin. Her boyfriend was a college classmate.
Zhang Ya waved vigorously, greeting Qin Ze and the others, and trotted over. She first hugged Qin Baobao, then gave her a "bo" sound, kissing Qin Baobao on the cheek. While her boyfriend was still far away, she winked at Qin Ze: "Oh my, little brother's here too. Does he want a kiss from big sister?"
Qin Ze was electrified by her flirtatious eyes. If Zhang Ya was just a woman who relied on makeup magic to be seductive, Qin Ze wouldn't have given her an eight. She had an oval face no less beautiful than Wang Zijing's, fair and clean. In addition, the most outstanding feature was her pair of charming eyes, watery, lively, and alluring.
Qin Ze glanced at her sideways: "Go away, you've got too much powder on your face."
Zhang Ya glared, fiercely saying, "For my boyfriend's sake, I'll spare you this time, otherwise I'd definitely pinch your little brother a hundred times."
"Oh, who's this pretty girl? Qin Ze, is she your girlfriend?" Zhang Ya noticed Wang Zijing, slightly stunned, and amazed by her beauty.
Just as Qin Ze was about to explain, Zhang Ya's starry eyes twinkled with watery light, and she giggled: "Just kidding, how could you have such a beautiful girlfriend?"
Qin Baobao laughed heartily: "That's right, he can't have a girlfriend. This is my high school classmate, Wang Zijing."
Qin Ze was so angry he wanted to beat these two women who were singing in harmony to bury him.
Wang Zijing gave Qin Ze a funny yet sympathetic look, and generously extended her hand: "Hello, my name is Wang Zijing."
"Zhang Ya."
At this moment, Chen Qinghong led a few men over. Chen Qinghong was fine, but the four men stared intently at Qin Baobao and Wang Zijing.
"Everyone's here, let's go in." Zhang Ya hooked her arm around her boyfriend's, walking towards the door side by side, her butt swaying with exceptional charm.
Zhang Ya's boyfriend was a Fudan graduate, a classmate of Qin Baobao, Zhang Ya, and Chen Qinghong. He was sunny and handsome, currently working in a state-owned enterprise. His family had some connections, and he was capable himself, so he had become a small leader in just two years.
The guy who was paying for everything was a man in his early thirties, wearing expensive casual suits that Qin Ze couldn't recognize the brand of. He was well-dressed and handsome, and looked like a promising career type.
He had ideas about Qin Baobao. After booking a private room and the waiter brought up the wine, fruit, and snacks, he sat next to Qin Baobao, speaking softly, with a warm and gentle smile on his face.
Another man was clearly more interested in Wang Zijing, trying to strike up a conversation with Wang Zijing from time to time, but Wang Zijing didn't bother with him and didn't drink with him, making him very embarrassed.
After being rejected several times, he went to Chen Qinghong's boyfriend to complain, "Little Chu, your friend isn't very enthusiastic, I can't get a conversation going."
After hearing this, the boyfriend looked at his girlfriend Chen Qinghong and frowned: "Qinghong, this friend of yours..."
Chen Qinghong also frowned: "Chu Feng, she's Baobao's friend, I don't know her."
Chu Feng nodded helplessly: "Director Xu, if she doesn't talk, just pull her to sing."
He was very dissatisfied with Wang Zijing's attitude.
Director Xu thought this was a good idea. Beauties are all reserved, and the night is long, he has plenty of opportunities to conquer the great beauty. Who knew that Zhang Ya would take the microphone first, order a duet love song, and pull her boyfriend to sing with her.
After Zhang Ya finished singing, she gave Qin Ze a look, and the two walked out of the private room one after another.
Zhang Ya leaned against the wall of the corridor, her figure full and graceful. An eight-point beauty, she attracted a high rate of turning heads wherever she went.
"Qin Ze, come over and let big sister hug you. I haven't seen you for more than half a month, and you've become even more handsome. I really regret not taking care of you on Baobao's birthday," Zhang Ya said with a charming smile.
"So you were desperately trying to get me drunk that day, turns out you had ulterior motives." Qin Ze took out a cigarette, tossed one to her, and then took out a lighter to light it for her. He lit one for himself as well: "Where's your cigarette?"
"So well-behaved." Zhang Ya exhaled a puff of smoke: "Cheng Yi won't let me smoke, I've been holding it in for days."
"Who is Cheng Yi?"
"My boyfriend."
"Oh, if you didn't say, I would have thought he was just some random cat or dog."
Zhang Ya wasn't angry at all, and said charmingly, "He's just a cat or dog, you're the apple of my eye."
"Women should smoke less." Qin Ze flicked off the ash: "Who are those two idiots inside? Did you introduce them to my sister as potential boyfriends?"
"The one pestering your sister is called Li Zemin, a leader in Chu Feng's company. He saw your sister at a gathering once and has been obsessed ever since, determined to marry her. Chen Qinghong organized the singing, or rather, her boyfriend organized it, both to set up your sister and to please the leader. A win-win situation." Zhang Ya expertly blew out a smoke ring.
Qin Ze smiled, noncommittal.
His sister was getting older, it wasn't a bad thing to meet more men. Choosing a man was like choosing an item, if it's too singular, how can you compare different options?
"I forgot the other one's name, I think his surname is Xu, a small leader at a public fund, who has business dealings with Chu Feng's company."
The two smoked and chatted.
Among Qin Baobao's besties, Zhang Ya and Qin Ze had the best relationship. To be honest, Qin Ze used to be quite fond of her. Later, he learned from Qin Baobao that Zhang Ya was already taken, and Qin Ze felt so stifled. Damn it, you have a boyfriend and you're still flirting with me.
That's why Zhang Ya was the type of seductive bitch.
But she wasn't a real bitch, at least she had said countless times that she wanted to seduce Qin Ze into bed, but her actual actions were zero.
Qin Ze and Zhang Ya returned to the private room. Chen Qinghong was singing into the microphone, her voice was good. On the other side, the guy called Li Zemin was sitting next to Qin Baobao, almost sticking to her. Qin Baobao was downing her drinks, very boldly, not noticing his increasingly bold actions.
Qin Baobao really liked singing K, one year on her birthday, she dragged Qin Ze to KTV, just the two of them, and she could sing from night until dawn.
Compared to Li Zemin's "unstoppable momentum", Director Xu was still running into walls. Wang Zijing's smile was gentle, neither too close nor too distant. You could talk to her for a long time, and she would only reply with a sentence or two.
"Baobao, shall we order a song to sing together?" Li Zemin, emboldened by alcohol, reached out to put his arm around Qin Baobao's shoulder.
He really liked Qin Baobao, ever since he saw her at that gathering, he was amazed by her beauty and had been thinking about getting her ever since.
Qin Ze waved his hand and slapped his hand away, pulling up the tipsy Qin Baobao: "You go sing a song, I'll take over the drinking."
Qin Baobao's eyes were blurred with drink, and she didn't forget to warn him: "Drink less, your body hasn't fully recovered."
Qin Ze thought, my body has long been fully recovered.
Li Zemin stared greedily at Qin Baobao's hot and graceful figure, especially her perky and round buttocks. After a long while, he withdrew his gaze, glanced at Qin Ze who was calmly drinking, and chuckled: "Young man, there's wine and food, just eat and drink, don't disturb me."
He expressed his dissatisfaction with Qin Ze's actions just now.
"Singing is singing, don't get handsy." Qin Ze rolled his eyes, as if cold light was shooting out.
Li Zemin carefully sized up Qin Ze, with a slightly condescending and disdainful tone: "Qinghong said Baobao doesn't have a boyfriend, I understand, you're also one of her pursuers. What does your family do? Second generation rich? Looking at your attire, it doesn't seem like it."
"What kind of second generation rich am I, I'm just an ordinary commoner." Qin Ze replied in the local dialect.
"A local," Li Zemin raised his lips: "Have you graduated from university?"
"No."
Li Zemin sneered: "Young man, when you enter society, you will know how to write the four words 'know your place'. I guarantee that if you hang around in society for three years, and then encounter today's occasion, you won't even dare to talk to Qin Baobao."
"Why?" Qin Ze was intrigued. "Insecurity?"
Li Zemin gave a forced smile and said, "Figure it out yourself. Just give up on Qin Baobao, I'm very interested in her. Of course, I won't tell you to stop bothering her in the future. But today, you're really not welcome. If you don't like it, you can leave."
Li Zemin didn't know Qin Ze's identity because no one introduced him. Qin Ze's background character attribute was not just self-deprecation. Chen Qinghong was aloof and wouldn't take the initiative to introduce him. Zhang Ya wouldn't either, and Li Zemin wasn't her superior. The boyfriends of the two beauties also didn't know Qin Ze.
Everyone assumed he was a friend of either Qin Baobao or Wang Zijing.
If Li Zemin knew Qin Ze was her 'little brother-in-law', he would immediately offer his knees and beg for an alliance.
