Xiwan didn't expect that she would run into trouble in the bathroom, but she tried not to take it to heart.
There were certain rules in Dark Night that had long been agreed upon. Once you entered, there were no disputes. If there a quarrel started in Dark Night, or if people were looking to start trouble outside, then the people involved would be out. As long as it was reported, Dark Night would forcefully intervene, pull up the surveillance footage of the incident, find the relevant people involved, and then investigate. If it was true, the people would be permanently blacklisted. Of course, this was only the light in the dark, to pardon the pun.
There had been gangsters in the past who did not believe they had to follow the rules. They came to Dark Night to look for trouble one night and didn't like what they found. In the end, they broke their hands. This was considered a small punishment. There was, generally speaking, a tacit understanding. This was the main reason why Dark Night had operated for so many years without many sexual disputes, money disputes, fights, and other vicious hooligan incidents.
Those who opened a bar generally had an interesting background. And those who opened bars on the scale of Dark Night had a very unusual background indeed.
No one would thought that the boss of Dark Night was being a bully. He was doing it for the safety of the people who loved to hang out in bars. It was a good thing. After all, in this day and age, bars had become synonymous with drugs, prostitution, and fights... Any sensible person would be happy that there was finally a bar that ensured people's safety.
The identity of the boss remained a mystery, there had never been a chance to find out who he was, until now. The two professional managers of Dark Night might have looked friendly and answered all questions when asked, but the key points were to get them to talk. To put it in layman's terms, they were extremely strict.
As time passed, the boss of Dark Night became more and more mysterious.
Xiwan had heard about it from a few friends she had made in the entertainment industry in her previous life.
"Xiwan, Xiwan, we really struck gold today!" Zhou Liqing said excitedly as soon as Xiwan sat down. "This is so great. I didn't expect that we would be so lucky! We usually can't even get tickets for Xiao Yinzheng's concert. He surprised everyone and people can't handle their excitment."
"Xiao Yinzheng?"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's definitely Xiao Yinzheng." Even Sun Huayu, who was not usually so quick to fall in love, had stars in her eyes. "I really didn't expect that he would come tonight. Dark Night really is awesome. Xiao Yinzheng was probably on the guest list."
Qian Mengfei sighed. "We can't get close to him even if we get really lucky. We can try to buy a lottery ticket later. Maybe we'll win a big prize."
"No! I'm too excited. I'm so close to my idol." Zhou Liqing's eyes shined. She patted her small chest.
Xiwan held her tongue.
It turned out that her roommates were Xiao Yinzheng's ******** fans.
"Oh right, Dark Night has a lucky draw in the performance segment. I heard that every gift is a special surprise. Haha, I look forward to my good luck."
The three roommates were already captured by the celebrity bubble, and Xiwan smiled knowingly.
"Xiwan, you're not excited at all."
"That's right! Xiwan, don't you like Xiao Yinzheng?"
Xiwan looked at Qian Mengfei and Zhou Liqing, who were rushing to speak after each other, and she said, "He's okay."
She didn't really like him anymore. The scene she had witnessed before was too lewd. Although she knew that it was normal for people to do that, she felt a little disgusted when she saw it, but she wasn't sure exactly why. His reputation in the industry wasn't bad, and in her previous life they had gotten along well when they worked together. Of course, she couldn't rule out the possibility that he and Su Nuanyu had been up to things like that all along. She certainly knew how to pretend to behave.
The girls nodded.
The host's voice suddenly came out loudly through the speakers. "Okay, I know that everyone has been waiting for this for a long time. Now, let's give a huge welcome to our idol, Xiao Yinzheng, okay?"
"Okay!" Waves of cheers, accompanied by screams, resounded through venue.
"Xiao Yinzheng! Xiao Yinzheng! Xiao Yinzheng!"
The voices merged into a loud chant of his name. Xiwan looked at all the people, their red faces from shouting. It was as if their original intention of coming to Dark Night was not to hang out at the bar but to join in with Xiao Yinzheng's concert.
Underneath the thousands of cheers and yells, a clear voice sounded in everyone's ears.
"She said summer love is spreading everywhere, and I'll find my way back to your side..."
He was singing the classic lyrical song 'Summerlove'. The previously noisy bar suddenly quietened down. By the time the song reached its climax, everyone in the bar was singing along. There was music, but there was also crazy bursts of screaming too.
Xiao Yinzheng seemed to sing two songs in one breath alone, and the atmosphere at the scene was high to the point of exploding.
After the two songs, the host appeared again, a huge smile on his small red face, and said, "I can't think! My face is so red, my heart beating so fast. How about you?"
"Us too!" The crowd cheered back.
That neat voice sounded as if it had been rehearsed a thousand times. The people who were next to him held their faces in their hands. "F*ck, he's so handsome! He's so much more handsome in real life than how he looks in TV shows."
"F*ck! There's actually a man this brilliant in the world."
Xiwan remained silent.
The host was very happy. He wiped his hands on his pants and then reached out his hand. "Yin Yinzheng, right? Hello, hello."
Xiao Yinzheng smiled. His long eyes narrowed into a crescent moon. "Hello."
"This voice is too nice! I bet someone could get pregnant if they listen to it too much!" The host was very humorous.
Xiao Yinzheng smiled. "Who wants to have my baby?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" A wave of cheers and screams rang through the air.
There were wild variations. One particularly avid fan shouted, "Xiao Yinzheng, I'm already pregnant!"
"Xiao Yinzheng, I want to bear your child!" Another cried out.
The host waved his hand to signal for everyone to quiet down. The backstage staff had already moved chairs onto the stage. The two of them took to their seats.
The host said, "I'm here with Xiao Yinzheng. Do you have anything to say to the fans below the stage?"
"Hello, everyone. I'm Xiao Yinzheng."
"Ah!" The audience cheered.
"As everyone knows, you haven't released anything for two years. I'm sure there will be many fans who are curious about when your new album will be coming out."
"It's still in preparation. I'll be telling everyone on the official website."
After some official questions, the host laughed mischievously. "Everyone, are you curious about our Xiao Yinzheng's private life?"
"I'm curious!" Everyone shouted back in unison.
The host asked, "So... Are you single right now?"
"Yes. I'm single."
"What kind of girls do you like?"
Xiao Yinzheng smiled for a long time. "Any girl, as long as she's pretty."
The crowd was silent for a second, and then everyone swooned together. "Aw!"
"All of you ladies have a chance then." The host winked.
"Ah!"
"Then, Xiao Yinzheng, is there anyone you like in particular? You know that the media is actually very concerned about your marriage."
Xiao Yinzheng thought for a moment. "Yes, but she's not around anymore. Maybe now, I won't be able to like other girls. Let's just leave it to fate."
Everyone was silent again for a moment before saying, "Ah."
Xiwan rolled her eyes discreetly. 'As expected of someone from the entertainment industry,' she thought. 'Less than a minute ago, he was kissing someone against a wall in the dark, but in the blink of an eye, he's a virtuous industry professional.'
After that, Xiao Yinzheng sang another energetic song, accompanied by a hot dance routine and dazzling lights. Everyone was intoxicated by it.
When they sat down once more for the second part of the interview, it was time for Dark Night's special gift lottery. The host said, "It's now time for the lucky draw. The first gift is an autographed album from Yin Zhengfu's collection."
The big screen started to roll to pick the winner of the lucky draw.
The ticket you bought when you entered had your participation number on it. Soon, the first number flashed on the screen: 32.
The one who was chosen was a curvy girl with heavy makeup. After she went on stage, she held the autographed album and danced excitedly. "Ah! I'm so happy! This album is out of print. I'm really lucky today."
After she had finished her happy dance, Xiao Yinzheng hugged her. She was so excited that she couldn't control herself and a few happy tears fell down her cheeks.
The girls below were extremely jealous. "She's too lucky. It's actually a full set of albums. I'm so envious."
Xiwan looked around. Women with similar expressions to her roommates were pouting throughout the crowd, and there were even quite a number of such men who looked green with envy.
The host announced the second gift. It was a briefcase that Xiao Yinzheng had used. It was a nice brand and looked brand new. It was a 14-year-old classic. If she remembered correctly, it cost hundreds of thousands of RMB.
"F*ck, I need this bag!" Although it wasn't necessary, it had been once used by an idol!
"Number 93!"
"Ah!"
The girl with number 93 stood up excitedly and rushed onto the stage so quickly that she almost fell down. When she was asked if she wanted to say anything, she was still incoherent.
Finally, it was the third gift that everyone had been looking forward to. No one knew what kind of prize it would be.
The host smiled and said, "Now this third gift is really special. I really want this gift."
Upon hearing this, the crowd became even more excited.
When the host saw that the atmosphere in the venue was so high, he stopped teasing the audience. "Well, isn't there a new album in prepration? The main song is missing a female lead for the music video! Tsk, tsk, someone in this room will be lucky enough to have with our idol. Just thinking about it is making me jealous!"
"What if a man wins?" The men in the venue appeared to be sulking.
Xiao Yinzheng said, "Haha, they'll just have to cross-dress. But I believe that my luck is good, so I'm asking for a pretty girl."
Laughter rippled through the crowd.
The host laughed too and said, "So girls, I wish you the best of luck! Big screen, let's find a number."
"Number 68!"
Silence.
"Well?" The host scanned the crowd for movement.
Still, no one came forward.
Ten seconds had passed, but no one reacted.
The crowd was full of doubts and people began gently whispering to each other.
Zhou Liqing said, "Number 68... Damn, I'm 69. I'm missing a number."
"I'm 67!" Qian Mengfei was also depressed. She had missed out on being chosen three times. Ah, what a pity!
"Wait..." the two of them said in unison. They took the number that Xiwan had thrown to the side and saw the number 68 with dazzled eyes.
Just when everyone thought that no one would come forward, Zhou Liqing said excitedly, "This way, this way! 68 is over here. Over here!"
