Chapter 142: Dizzy and Confused

  After entering the gate, Jiang Yan stored her bag and handbag at the baggage counter, then accompanied Lorin and the others through security checks, turned around and walked into the interior of the "Jiangnan Tribe" bar.

  As they entered the largest and most luxurious bar in Jiangnan Province, Lorraine and Jiang Yan were immediately hit with a strong taste of nightlife. The music from the DJ booth was deafening, the waiters were busy running back and forth between the tables, the lights were flashing, and the crowd was filled with men who looked like dogs and women who were dressed to impress, all laughing and having a great time, some genuinely enjoying themselves, while others had ulterior motives hidden behind their smiles.

  The relationship between people is so complicated, sometimes the more someone smiles at you, the more you need to be on guard. The more comfortable their words make you feel inside, the less you can listen to them. It's very possible that they're making you numb and then stabbing you in the back when you least expect it.

  Hu Yidao's first impression on Luo Lin was that he always had a hint of a smile on his face. Of course, this couldn't be taken as the whole story, maybe Hu Yidao was just a smiling tiger kind of person, it depends on who you ask. If Hu Yidao was indeed someone valued by Han Zhennan, then he must have some extraordinary qualities. Regardless of what kind of person Hu Yidao truly was at heart, at least his proposal this afternoon seemed even more enticing now.

  Looking at the largest bar in Jiangnan Province, which is booming with business, Lorraine couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency. After the Luo Group successfully entered the leisure and entertainment industry in Shuangyang City, how much profit would it bring?...

  Jiang Yan and Luo Lin walked into the bar with their elbows entwined, led by the waiter to a corner far from the dance floor. The two came here just to have a drink and relax a bit, not planning to go crazy like those men and women on the dance floor, so sitting in the corner was the best choice.

  Ordered a bottle of Glen Brothers, two bottles of 7-Up, several plates of snacks, simply mixed the base wine and drinks, and the two started eating, drinking and chatting.

  "Lorraine, do you often come to this kind of place?" Jiang Yan looked at the crazy men and women in the dance pool, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, obviously not liking the atmosphere here. "These people are like lunatics, don't their heads hurt from shaking back and forth like that?"

  Lu Lian followed Jiang Yan's line of sight and found that several men in the dance pool were surrounding a woman, shaking their heads like they had gone mad, shouting loudly to the DJ music with a strong rhythm.

  "Hehe, I used to come here often when I was younger, but later on, I didn't sit here as much." Lorraine said naturally while taking a sip of her drink mixed with Sprite.

  "When you were young, you looked much older than you do now..." Jiang Yan said with a smile.

  Lorraine smiled wryly, not speaking a word, her eyes fixed on the young men in the dance pool who were stumbling around like fools. Her thoughts suddenly flashed back to her own dandy era in her previous life. At one time, she was also that kind of person who loved nightlife. That youth, wild and arrogant, noisy and domineering, confused and decadent, bitter and helpless...

  Nowadays, Lorraine's mentality is like a hermit who has returned home, no longer thinking about those useless things.

  A young body, a settled soul, this is what makes Lorraine so different from others.

  That crazy DJ music, now sounds to Loring like a dull and pale scream that can no longer stir up even the slightest ripple in his heart. He looked at the dance floor, his eyes gradually narrowing into a slit, with a hint of desolation flowing out from his pupils. Yes, he's no longer crazy, but also no longer simple.

  The loneliness of simple people is often emptiness and nothingness. The loneliness of complex people, on the other hand, is the powerless recollection of those fleeting years that have passed by.

  This suddenly reminded Lorraine of a dialogue she had seen before that was quite touching, which said that a man walked into a restaurant called "Life":

  "Boss, come and have a plate of loneliness."

  "Sorry, sir, our store is all sold out."

  "Isn't there happiness and joy?"

  "Yes, it's fake."

  "Is it true?"

  "Yesterday I gave him a fake smile."

  "Do you have a lover?"

  "Yes."

  "Bring one over and add some noodles."

  "All promises are false."

  "How much does it cost?"

  "This is precious, one chance, one share."

  "One serving."

  "Then you'll meet by chance."

  …………

  For a moment, countless thoughts surged in his mind. The smooth and easy journey of rebirth made Luo Lin immerse himself in the feeling of victory and superiority, and he didn't know how long it had been since he felt that kind of psychological setback. Was it because he had become stronger now, or was it because he had become more terrifying?

  I always thought that Hu Yidao's smile was like a smiling tiger, but what about myself? Am I also a smiling tiger in the eyes of some people?

  However, Lorraine was still lucky, at least there were many people around her who trusted herself, not to mention relatives, but also brothers, Xiao Chuan, Liangzi, Jiatong, Chenggong and Lina; There are also Qin Yuanshu, Song Meiyan, Lanlan, and perhaps Long'er is also trustworthy... as well as Jiang Yan in front of her.

  As she thought of this, Luoluo raised her head and smiled at Jiang Yan, with a hint of emotion in her eyes. It had to be said that Jiang Yan, who had no connection with herself in the previous life, seemed to be a mysterious gift from heaven after being reborn in this life. This gift, she didn't know when it started, but it had already melted Luoluo's icy heart and moved her.

  "Hey, little fool, what are you spacing out for?" Jiang Yan snapped back to reality and found Luo Lin looking at her with some deep emotions. Her heart skipped a beat, her face flushed red, luckily the dim lighting in the bar saved her from being seen by Luo Lin.

  "Oh, hehe... nothing, just looking at you, sister..." Originally, Luo Lin wanted to casually compliment Jiang Yan's beauty, but thinking that he had already praised her many times before, although it was true that she was beautiful, saying it now would seem a bit too casual. So he paused for a moment and stopped speaking. Luo Lin leaned forward slightly, his face close to Jiang Yan's, the small table only as wide as his arm. He stretched out one hand and gently grasped Jiang Yan's slender hand on the table, under the dim light, Luo Lin's facial features were distinct, a pair of shiny black eyes, flickering with a hint of deep charm, like an otherworldly serenade. Feeling the warmth of her small hand being enveloped, Jiang Yan inadvertently fell into a dazed and enchanted state.

  "What...what?" Jiang Yan's cheeks flushed with two red clouds, her charming eyes like silk, her breathing unconsciously rapid, feeling Lorin's increasingly close breath, she forced herself to ask softly.

  Lorraine's face was now very close to Jiang Yan's, only a palm away, and even their breathing could be clearly felt by each other: "I want to say... maybe you are... the best gift heaven has given me this life."

  At this moment, Jiang Yan's heart seemed to have been pierced by the arrow of love, and it violently trembled. Her bright red face and neck rolled with heat, her eyes were autumn-like, as if they were about to produce tears.

  "Damn... you're always saying such embarrassing things...... Ahh..."

  Before Jiang Yan could even finish speaking, Luo Lin's mouth had already suddenly pressed against her red lips. The soft, warm sensation instantly spread to every corner of her body. Luo Lin's thick nose breathed heavily, his hot breath blowing on Jiang Yan's delicate face, and in that instant, she felt like her entire body had gone numb. A wave of dizziness washed over her, and subconsciously, she closed her eyes. Her body temperature rapidly rose, as if it was about to burn up and evaporate in an instant. The strength in her limbs seemed to be completely drained, leaving her weak and limp all over. She didn't resist at all, allowing Luo Lin's domineering mouth to ravage her...

  The music in the bar was still deafening, the dance floor was still noisy, and under the dim light, no one noticed Lorrine and Jiang Yan's kiss. But at this moment, for Lorrine and Jiang Yan, it seemed like a century-long eternity.

  Jiang Yan was intoxicated by Luo Lin's overbearing behavior, her head buzzing with noise, and she didn't even know where she was now. At the age of 24, she had never had a boyfriend before, nor had she ever been touched by any man. As a beautiful woman, Jiang Yan was indeed a rare example. A 24-year-old woman, in the prime of her life for love and marriage, had long felt a flutter in her heart since her relationship with Luo Lin deepened. Holding hands, speaking lightly, these things Luo Lin had done to her before, and she had never shown any signs of disgust. For this chaste woman, it was the greatest hint.

  However, Lorraine's kiss tonight, although a bit abrupt, was just in time. At the moment when Jiang Yan's iceberg was about to collapse, this kiss shook heaven and earth, at least, it made Jiang Yan fall into a drunken world she had never experienced but yearned for.

  More importantly, her first kiss was given to the man she liked - Lorrain.

  Jiang Yan felt like she was going to die from happiness, the feeling of kissing the one she loved was so exhilarating that her blood vessels were bursting, her body slightly trembling, almost melting, with thousands of little deer rampaging in her heart, falling into Lorin's gentle and overbearing trap, unable to extricate herself...
