Chapter 20

the following afternoon.

Gu Weiqing had just returned from Granny Jinfeng's place, but Xia Liuqing seemed to have already been waiting in the villa.

Before he could say anything, Xia Liuqing had already asked:
"You just came back from Jinfeng?"

Gu Weiqing nodded slightly, and then asked, "Mr. Xia, when did you come?"

"It's not long since I arrived." Subconsciously, Xia Liuqing wanted to ask Gu Weiqing what she was doing with Granny Jinfeng.

Because when he went there this morning, he saw Jin Feng looking absent-minded, even distracted.

But the words came to his lips, but in the end he didn't ask.

As long as Jinfeng is fine.

As soon as he thought about it, he immediately got down to business: "I'm here to tell you that that ghost has returned to China, and I've already told him that you want to find him."

"What did he say?" Gu Weiqing asked.

Xia Liuqing responded, "Tomorrow at four o'clock in the afternoon, Wangyou Tavern, the address is here."

"He's waiting for you there."

"Wangyou." Gu Weiqing whispered the name of the tavern: "It's such a good name."

Xia Liuqing asked again at this time: "I still don't know what you and that ghost are going to talk about?"

"From the point of view of the younger generation, Mr. Xia, you can actually know." Gu Weiqing said, "But we all have to respect Granny Jinfeng's opinion."

"But if Mr. Xia really wants to know, this junior does."

Before he finished speaking, Xia Liuqing raised his hand to stop him from continuing, and said:
"Don't give me any bad ideas."

Gu Weiqing shook his head helplessly: "This junior wants to say that if you really want to know, you only need to wait for a while, and you will know everything."

"At that time, even if Granny Jinfeng wants to hide it, she won't be able to hide it, and Mr. Xia, you are the most trustworthy person around Granny Jinfeng, so you don't need to worry about it at all."

Hearing this, Xia Liuqing showed a thoughtful look on her face, and looked at Gu Weiqing a little more pleasing to the eye.

Gu Weiqing smiled slightly, chatted with Xia Liuqing for a few more words, and then sent him away.

Wait for Xia Liuqing to leave.

Gu Weiqing returned to the living room of the villa, sat on the soft and comfortable sofa, closed his eyes slightly, and began to recall the content of "The Curse of He Hua Zi Zai Tian" in his mind.

Although he is not very sure that he can use this secret spell safely now, in the future, this secret spell will be put to use for the first time.

And it plays a vital role!
Four o'clock in the afternoon the next day.

Gu Weiqing came to Wangyou Tavern by car.

This is a private tavern, very famous in the small circle, and not everyone can drink in it.

So after Gu Weiqing arrived at the place, he was directly stopped outside by the security personnel, and these security personnel were all strangers with certain strength.

If he hadn't said that he had already made an appointment with Barron, it would have been difficult to get in.

After entering the Wangyou Tavern.

Gu Weiqing quickly found Barron, and he walked straight to where Barron was, and then sat down directly on the seat next to Barron.

As soon as he sat down, Barron said, "I haven't seen you before. There are so many people in the tavern (there are also foreigners), but you can recognize me at a glance."

"Tell me, what have you investigated about me?"

Gu Weiqing just glanced sideways at Barron, and didn't answer as he said, but raised his hand and snapped his fingers, saying, "Bartender, have a glass of bourbon."

"You also know wine?" Seeing that Gu Weiqing was so proficient, Barron couldn't help asking.

Gu Weiqing used wine to numb himself occasionally in his previous life. At this time, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Wine is a good thing. It can make people happier when they are happy, and it can make people temporarily forget their sorrows when they are sad."

"Just like the name of this tavern, Wangyou."

"You have come here often over the years, or you have become more and more addicted to wine."

When Barron heard this, he stopped the hand holding the wine glass in mid-air, and then drank it in one gulp.

Gu Weiqing glanced sideways, and said meaningfully: "The wine still tastes the same, but in your mouth, it should almost lose its taste."

"Not just wine, maybe everything in this world will gradually become boring."

When Baron heard this, he turned his head and looked at Gu Weiqing, just about to say something.

Gu Weiqing raised his hand to pick up the wine that the bartender had just put on the table, and drank it in one gulp just like he did just now, but he showed a look of complete enjoyment.

"Really good wine!"

Gu Weiqing's expression of full enjoyment at this time was in sharp contrast to Barron's expression of drinking it all in one gulp but showing no reaction at all.

Seeing that, Barron couldn't help falling into silence for a moment.

Gu Weiqing put down the wine glass, looked sideways at Barron, and asked, "What did you want to say just now?"

"Who are you?" Barron just said.

At this time, a foreigner came suddenly. He should have known Barron for a long time and hadn't seen him for a long time. When he saw Barron again, he couldn't help but said in a familiar tone:

"Dude, you're still the same! It's amazing! (Dude, you're still the same! It's amazing!)"

But Barron didn't pay attention to the foreigner. Seeing Gu Weiqing sitting next to Barron, the foreigner looked at Barron several times in disbelief, and left knowingly.

Seeing this, Gu Weiqing said slowly, "Will you encounter the situation just now?"

"Perhaps they will forget what happened when they leave this tavern, but I'm afraid you won't."

"After all, whether it's the person just now or the glass of wine just now, they remind you over and over again, and make you more aware of your uniqueness time and time again."

"And the more lively you are around, the more lonely you will be; the more colorful the world, the more empty and monotonous your heart will be."

At this point, Gu Weiqing turned his head to look at Barron, with an unpredictable smile on his face, and asked with a smile:
"How, am I right?"

Seeing that Barron was just staring at him with deep eyes, Gu Weiqing was still so calm and composed, he raised his hand again and snapped his fingers.

"Bartender, two more vodkas."

The bartender quickly brought two glasses of vodka.

Gu Weiqing handed one of the cups to Barron and said with a smile: "It's rare to meet someone who understands you so well. This is a rare confidant in our ZG."

"Come on, a toast."

But Barron didn't take the wine glass.

Seeing this, Gu Weiqing continued to smile: "There is an idiom in ZG called drinking wine and talking happily, which means talking happily while drinking."

"You chose this place to discuss things. Do you want to just stare at me?"

His words made Barron understand that he really didn't have the slightest bit of hostility.

Since it is not an enemy, and it was introduced by an old friend, it is not a bad idea to have a good time with wine.

Barron then took the wine glass that Gu Weiqing handed him.

Immediately afterwards, a rather pleasant sound of clinking glasses sounded in their ears.
