Because of what Li Ye had said, Huang Gang was completely dazed. Even when the banquet began at the restaurant, he still drifted off from time to time.
Seeing their big brother so absentminded, his brothers mistakenly assumed that, now that even his younger sister was married while he himself remained alone, he was feeling sorry for himself.
So the brothers began ribbing Huang Gang.
"Brother Gang, come have a drink with us! Why are you spacing out on such a happy day? Don't tell me you're thinking about Xiaoqing again?"
"I don't think so. Brother Gang must be thinking about the Jade Rabbit Demon. I saw him grinning foolishly at the Jade Rabbit Demon on a calendar the other day."
"Get out of here! Even this fine liquor can't plug your mouths? Can't you see I'm busy here?"
"Hahahaha, Brother Gang still won't admit it! Let's not disturb him while he thinks about his wife. Let's drink!"
"..."
The bunch of thick-nerved fair-weather friends saw Huang Gang's awkward state and burst into laughter, as if they had just heard an especially hilarious joke.
But as Huang Gang looked at those friends shouting orders, guzzling food and drink, he suddenly found it all rather dull.
Back then, Huang Gang had loved drinking with friends. Whether they knew each other well, barely knew each other, or were total strangers, as long as everyone carried a jianghu in their hearts, they could drink from big bowls and devour meat in great mouthfuls.
Otherwise, why had the Young and Dangerous series been so popular in the eighties? It suited the psychological needs of that generation!
But looking at his brothers now, Huang Gang suddenly began to wonder whether he would spend the rest of his life muddleheadedly laughing and carrying on like this.
