The color of the neon lights lit the whole city up at night.
In the middle of the night, in a bar.
This was an entertainment place for young people and at night, there were always countless of young folks who would come to have fun.
The flashing lights and entrancing music aroused the enthusiasm of everyone resent.
Ye Mei sat at the front of the bar and giggled at the handsome bartender who was making a fancy cocktail.
After having a few glasses of red wine, her cheeks were flushed red.
"Hey handsome, you're so good looking, why don't you be a gigolo!"
Ye Mei smiled sweetly with a little bit of drunkenness. She flicked her wine-red curly hair hanging on her shoulder, looking extremely enchanting.
When the bartender heard her question, instead of being angry, he laughed instead. "If a beauty like you is willing to patronize me, then being a gigolo is not out of the question."
Ye Mei took a sip of her wine and was clearly a little tipsy. "Oh come on, I'm not that kind of woman. I'm in a good mood tonight, so I'll let you onto a secret. The man that I want to get on, is the number one most handsome person in the city..."
They say that a drunk person would speak the truth and this was not wrong.
While Ye Mei was not yet drunk from the words coming out of her mouth, she was almost there already.
The bartender glanced at her but did not answer. Instead, he continued to make cocktails.
"Give me a glass of Baijiu!"
Amidst the cacophony, a voice rang out. It was so melodious that one would have the urge to get a taste of it.
The bartender followed the sound and saw a delicate petite face that was close to perfection.
The person who wanted a little drink to relieve her boredom was...Shen Chen.
Hearing the voice, the bartender was stunned.
He raised his head and glanced at Shen Chen. While he was surprised, he still nodded at her politely.
A glass of concentrated Baijiu was soon pushed before Shen Chen.
The bartender made a gesture indicating, 'Go ahead.'
Picking up the glass, Shen Chen raised her head and drank the entire glass down in a shot.
She then furrowed her eyebrows as she pursed her red lips tightly.
This was a natural reaction after consuming strong alcohol.
Putting down the empty glass, Shen Chen snapped her fingers and the bartender once again pushed her another glass of Baijiu in surprise.
Throughout his six to seven years of being a bartender, this was the first time he had seen a woman drinking so boldly like that.
Other women would have complained that a cocktail was strong and there was she was dunking down Baijiu like it was nothing?
After downing a few glasses continuously, her stomach began to burn.
Shen Chen was already used to this feeling long ago and did not care about it.
"Why did you drink so much?" Ye Mei asked in a daze. She snapped at least half-way out of her tipsyness before turning her head and seeing Shen Chen. "It's you!"
"Yes." Shen Chen replied calmly and did not sound even slightly bothered.
"Weren't you pregnant with your child? Why are you drinking?" Ye Mei rubbed her eyes. After making sure that she had not recognized the wrong person, she immediately picked up Shen Chen glass and smelled it as her expression immediately changed. "Strong liqueur..."
Shen Chen lowered her head and deliberately glanced at her flat belly.
Ye Mei followed her gaze seeing this and then further down, down and down...
"MY GOODNESS!"
She screamed as she had saw something terrifying.
Shen Chen glared at her. "Keep quiet."
Ye Mei covered her mouth as she leaned forward and looked carefully at her abdomen.
She then held her hand out and touched it.
A chill came from the bottom of her feet all the way to her heart. Ye Mei's face stiffened. "You—that— where's your belly?"
"I—had a miscarriage..."
"Miscarriage?" Ye Mei was so shocked that her face turned pale. "You had such a big belly, it was at least six months right? How could a miscarriage happen all of the sudden..."
