After changing clothes in the changing room, Murui intentionally paid attention to Cheng Jin's locker and couldn't help but smirk. While working, he and Cheng Jin were not in the same area. Each of them had their own responsible area.

The bar is neither big nor small, it has been open for about five years. There are many regular customers and a steady stream of new customers. Such places are always dimly lit, with occasional glimpses of starlight only illuminating the beautifully packaged people on the stage.

Mu Rui actually doesn't really like it here, but it's fine if he doesn't fit in. It's enough for him to just watch everything from the sidelines and earn money in the bar.

Cheng Jin has been here for a month, and he quickly learned to do things proficiently.

Because he was young and handsome, with slightly dark skin and almost the same height as Murui, those young girls were most inclined to crowd around him wherever he went. Murui looked on with envy and jealousy.

Then, secretly running to the restroom to take a look at themselves, actually... they're not bad either. Comparing themselves, Murui found, to their utter despair, that they seemed to be a bit of a pretty boy.

Coming here to work again, I noticed that not much has changed. The same people are still in the bar. After Murui finished his work, he was pulled over by the former bartender A Zhe. A Zhe also went from being a part-time bartender during college to a full-time one later on. Murui spent a year and a half here during high school, then left for another year and a half. Now that he's back, everyone treats him better, after all, he is their little brother.

"Come, taste the flavor of the new wine in the Night Enchantress."

Mu Rui waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, it's late. If I drink too much and get into a car accident, who will take responsibility?"

Ah Zhe laughed at him, "You got into an accident with a bicycle? You really have no backbone. Just a little bit of alcohol and you're already drunk."

Indeed, Murui never dares to drink too much beer. When he suffered from a broken heart in high school, he called his buddies and had a few bottles, but that was it. Later, he tried a little bit of Baijiu and ended up being dragged back home by Muchu, feeling dizzy and vomiting uncontrollably. After that, if he drank too much, Muchu would resort to domestic violence.

Ah Zhe shook his tall glass and said, "Don't worry, I've made the alcohol content lower for you. It's something that girls can drink."

Mu Rui took it then, and tasted it. "Oh, not bad! It even has a faint floral scent. Just as expected, it's favored by girls."

"You guys actually have such a mild-tasting dish here?"

A Zhe intentionally hummed and asked, "What do you mean?"

Murui quickly shook his head, "Haha, just kidding, just kidding." While chatting with Zhe, a few others who knew them also gathered around and started speaking one after another.

Mu Rui occasionally glanced at the situation on Cheng Jin's side. The area he was responsible for had more people and was more chaotic. On his own side, there were mostly regular customers, making it easier to handle things. They knew what needed to be done and did it promptly. Everyone was enthusiastic, especially after being reunited after a long time apart.

We chatted for a while when Ah Zhe suddenly asked, "Are you going back? It's already past 10:20 now." The shifts here are in two rotations, and part-time students can switch shifts as late as 10 o'clock.

Mu Rui finally realized he was overly excited, "Oh my goodness, our dormitory locks its doors at eleven o'clock. I forgot to mention it. See you tomorrow." He walked away in that direction, and laughter followed from behind, "We thought you were going to book a hotel room outside!"

"F*ck, a bunch of delinquents!" Mu Rui turned around and jokingly cursed back at them. His friends also laughed it off and dispersed, talking and laughing as they went their separate ways.

After Murui changed his clothes, he realized that Cheng Jin was nowhere to be seen. He rode his bicycle alone into the pitch-black alley. There were already few people when he arrived, and even fewer when he left.

There are three residential streets here. After turning around the corner of the vegetable market, a figure flashed into view.

Mo Rui quickened his pace to board the ship, "Cheng Jin!"

The boy stopped in his tracks and turned to look at the person catching up from behind. Murui stood by his side, one foot planted firmly on the ground.

It was indeed Cheng Jin, and he was a little curious. "How did you know my name?"

Mu Rui suddenly realized that he hadn't asked him, feeling embarrassed. "Um, I asked some people in the bar."

Cheng Jinming nodded in understanding.

Seeing him walking back on foot, it seemed like time was running out. Murui's hands were freezing and painful, and he reminded himself that he was definitely not helping him out of kindness.

"You know how to ride a bicycle, right? Here, take it."

Cheng Jin was surprised and asked, "What about you?"

Lacking a good understanding, Murui was already a person with a thick face, lively, and lacking patience. He shot Cheng Jin a disdainful glance.

"Of course you're taking me along, no need to talk nonsense."

'……'

In fact, it's a bit strange for a boy to carry another boy like this. After all, the car is not too big. However, Murui doesn't mind, he even feels carefree and happy, no longer having to endure the cold.

Cheng Jin rarely makes friends and is not very talkative. He tends to be quiet and reserved, after all, he is not very familiar with others.

The night breeze was pleasantly cool. Murui sat behind Cheng Jin, and the wind was completely blocked. How nice.

After arriving at the school, Mu Rui hopped off the car and Cheng Jin handed him the bicycle. "Then I'll go back now."

"Will you still go tomorrow?" Mu Rui asked hurriedly.

Cheng Jin nodded, "Mmm, I'll go on Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday."

After contemplating for a moment, Murui replied in a friendly manner, "Why don't you leave me your phone number? Let's go together."

Cheng Jin looked at him hesitantly for a moment, but eventually gave him the phone number calmly. Mu Rui felt extremely proud in his heart. After watching him park his bicycle in the parking area and leave, he happily went back to the dormitory to turn on the computer.

Wutong Ye: Master, master! Amazing job!

Shenchuan: What's wrong...

Wutong Ye: (*^__^*) Good things happened.

Shen Chuan: Oh?

As Mu Rui was happily chatting with his master, he suddenly heard Xu Wen's anxious roar, "Mu Rui, why did the water in the bathroom stop?"

"Take a look and see if the faucet is broken."

"This is not the point. The point is that I haven't finished brewing it yet!"

...

Mu Rui got up and went to check the electric kettle in the dormitory. Both lazy guys didn't fill it up, which made him quite frustrated. "Wait a moment, I'll go out and fill it up for you."

"Hurry up!" It was early spring, and being naked surrounded by the cold air and foam made Xu Wen feel extremely desolate.

When Murui came back, he was stunned by the words on the computer screen.

Shechuan: Did you get a boyfriend?

Compared to Shuchuan's problem, the answer had already been given three minutes later.

Wutong Ye: Master, you're being tacky!

Shechuan: Isn't it?

Wutong Ye: Of course not, ╭(╯^╰)╮ I made friends with my love rival.

[Shechuan: ......]

Wutong Ye: Master, do you think I am a bit unrighteous?

Shen Chuan: What's there to be so happy about?

Wutongye: Hmph, I don't have it. I want to infiltrate the enemy's territory, understand them thoroughly, and win every battle by exploiting their weaknesses. Fight fire with fire.

[She Chuan: ......]
