The drinking contest between Tan Mo and Hao Ying had reached its climax.

Especially Hao Ying, whose handsome face was already showing signs of drunkenness.

No matter how good a drinker was, he or she would not be able to control himself after drinking too much, not to mention that Hao Ying had already drunk a lot before.

Drunk people were really annoying.

Qiao Lan could not help but sigh.

Hao Ying's attitude towards Qiao Lan had always been quite proper, probably because she liked Qiao Lan, so no matter how arrogant she was to other people, she was still a little timid in front of Qiao Lan.

However, a drunk Hao Ying was as annoying as it could be. Not only was it annoying, but it was also unreasonable!

She used the extremely childish saying that "women do not need to be involved in a contest between men" to get Qiao Lan away from Tan Mo.

Qiao Lan, "…???"

Bai Yu and the others, who had been watching the show excitedly, lost interest after watching too much, so they pulled Qiao Lan to the side to sing.

Qiao Lan was not very interested in singing, and Tan Mo and Hao Ying were already surrounded by the boys, so Qiao Lan could only give up.

Hao Ying looked very drunk, but Tan Mo seemed to be fine.

He was still as indifferent as before. He was cold and didn't say much, no different from when he first started drinking.

Qiao Lan was a little relieved. After playing with her phone for a while, she felt bored, so she simply went out to get some fresh air.

No matter how big the room was, it was still a little stuffy with dozens of people crowded in one room.

There was a small rooftop at the far end of the KTV. The June night wind was not very cold, and it was very comfortable when it blew on one's body.

Qiao Lan leaned on the railing and looked at the streetlights in the distance. It was rare for her to relax and stare blankly for a while. She only turned her head when she heard footsteps.

It was Xiang Xiaohan.

Qiao Lan was not too surprised. In fact, she felt that it was within her expectations.

Yesterday, Xiang Xiaohan sent Qiao Lan a lot of WeChat messages.

On WeChat, Xiang Xiaohan asked Qiao Lan if she knew what Tan Mo was like in private. She asked if she knew that the seemingly innocent Tan Mo was actually a devil.

Xiang Xiaohan said that Tan Mo had once investigated her family situation. Tan Mo said that he wanted to take revenge on her family. He said that he wanted to make her parents lose their jobs and make her leave the campus.

[Tan Mo is a devil. You've been deceived by him], Xiang Xiaohan said. [Are you scared? Are you scared knowing that the guy you like is actually such a person?]

Xiang Xiaohan asked in the end.

Qiao Lan did not reply.

As expected, Xiang Xiaohan could not hold it in anymore. She did not achieve her goal on WeChat, so she directly came to look for Tan Mo.

Qiao Lan only glanced at her and continued to lean against the railing until Xiang Xiaohan walked up to Qiao Lan and asked her, "You actually didn't listen to me at all."

She thought that Qiao Lan did not reply to her message because she was scared and went to question Tan Mo. Xiang Xiaohan was a little excited and wondered if Tan Mo would not come today and if there would finally be a crack between the two of them.

In the end, both Qiao Lan and Tan Mo came today. Not only did they come, but they also wore matching outfits. From the beginning until just now, the two of them were practically glued to each other. Tan Mo even kissed Tan Mo in front of so many people.

Thinking about that kiss, Xiang Xiaohan suddenly clenched her fists.

Qiao Lan finally gave Xiang Xiaohan a straight face and said, "Why should I listen to you?"

"I'm telling the truth!"

Xiang Xiaohan said excitedly, "I still have the information that Tan Mo has investigated. If you don't believe me, I can show it to you!"

"That's not necessary," Qiao Lan said indifferently, "I believe you."

Xiang Xiaohan was slightly delighted, but then she heard Qiao Lan say again, "And then?"

Even if he really did investigate your family and threaten you, then what? What do you want to do?

"Aren't you afraid?"

Xiang Xiaohan widened her eyes, "He's not what you think at all. He's so scary, and you still like him?"

Qiao Lan's gaze fell on Xiang Xiaohan and looked at her with a smile that wasn't a smile, "Yeah, he's so scary, so why do you still like him?"

Xiang Xiaohan was stunned, as if the deepest secret hidden in the bottom of her heart had been suddenly exposed. She suddenly reacted and hurriedly retorted, "Who likes him?!"

"You've always caused trouble for me, and now you're so eager to break us apart. If you don't like Tan Mo, then do you like me?"

Qiao Lan mocked her while making a joke, "Xiang Xiaohan, do you think I'm stupid?"

The fact that Xiang Xiaohan liked Tan Mo was something that Qiao Lan had noticed when she was in her second year of high school. At that time, she and Tan Mo weren't together yet. Xiang Xiaohan had mentioned Tan Mo a lot in the dormitory, and later, whenever she had the chance, she would ask Qiao Lan about Tan Mo.

If it wasn't for the fact that Xiang Xiaohan had bad intentions, Qiao Lan would have thought that Xiang Xiaohan really wanted to be good to Tan Mo.

Xiang Xiaohan didn't expect Qiao Lan to see through her, and her face turned green and white. After holding it in for a while, she recovered and continued, "I'm talking about you guys now, it has nothing to do with me. Even if I like him, I will never be with him …"

"Don't flatter yourself," Qiao Lan couldn't help but want to scold her when she heard this. Do you really want Tan Mo to be with you?

Xiang Xiaohan wasn't stupid, and she understood that Qiao Lan was mocking her. Even if she wanted Tan Mo, he wouldn't like her. Her face became more and more embarrassed, "Qiao Lan, don't be so ungrateful. I'm kindly reminding you to see his true colors early so that you won't regret it in the future."

"I'll repeat myself, Xiang Xiaohan, don't treat me like a fool," Qiao Lan's face darkened, "Do you really think that the ambiguous words you said on WeChat are trustworthy?

Tan Mo would never take the initiative to provoke others, let alone you. If you didn't do something to push him, why would he create those things and even threaten you? "Qiao Lan's voice became stern," You don't even know that you're a bad person. That's exactly what people like you are! "

"What exactly did you say to him?" Qiao Lan grabbed Xiang Xiaohan, who was obviously panicking after being interrogated, and said, "Speak!"

Xiang Xiaohan kept her mouth shut and didn't say anything.

Qiao Lan sneered, "You always said that I thought of Tan Mo as too naive, but now I feel that it's you who thought of me as too naive. I've known Tan Mo for three years, so how could I not know what kind of person Tan Mo is?

How could I not know what kind of person he is?

Why do you think I'm not afraid? It's because I can do something like that too. "

Qiao Lan narrowed her eyes, "Don't think that I can't do it. It's just a matter of one sentence. You probably don't know," Qiao Lan whispered in Xiang Xiaohan's ear, "I'm living in Tan Mo's house now."

Xiang Xiaohan suddenly raised her head. She couldn't hide the shock and jealousy on her face this time.

"Do you want to know why?" Xiang Xiaohan suddenly said, "Sure, I'll tell you. It's because I found out that Tan Mo liked you at that time."

Qiao Lan tightened her grip on Xiang Xiaohan's hand. Xiang Xiaohan continued, "He was still disabled at that time, but he actually dared to like you. He hid it so carefully, but I still found out," Xiang Xiaohan said through gritted teeth, "I was just curious. After all, Qiao Lan is so good at your studies and so beautiful. Even Hao Ying is chasing you. What right did he have to dare to like you, as a disabled person who can't even stand up?"

Qiao Lan's mind went blank. She felt as if her heart had been ruthlessly stabbed by a knife. It was so painful that her entire body trembled.

At that time, she carefully protected Tan Mo every day. No matter how bad the outside world's words were, Qiao Lan couldn't bear to let him hear a single word.

The person she protected so much had heard the most heart-wrenching sarcasm in the world at a time when she didn't know about it.

He had always felt inferior. Now that he had such excellent grades, he still felt inferior. He still felt that he wasn't good enough for her.

At that time, Tan Mo couldn't even stand up.

It turned out that he had fallen in love with her so early. He had already fallen in love with her before she knew it. His feelings for her were so deep that even though he had heard her words, he still hid it from her and buried it deep in his heart.

She only knew about some things now, but when she thought about it, her heart still hurt so much that she couldn't speak.

No wonder Tan Mo always seemed to have something on his mind back then. He always seemed unhappy and always carefully kept a distance from her.

That was why he asked the question, "What if I can't stand up for the rest of my life?"

How much did he like her that he didn't dare to say it out loud even though he was in so much pain? How much did he like her that he finally decided to let go of the guilt he felt towards his mother and chose to stand up again?

At this moment, Qiao Lan hated Xiang Xiaohan as much as she loved Tan Mo.

"I thought it was finally over, but he actually stood up. Qiao Lan, why are you always so lucky …"

"Shut up!"

Qiao Lan couldn't take it anymore.

"Do you know how much he suffered? Do you know what he went through? You don't, but you know what I went through, Xiang Xiaohan. Your parents are healthy and your family is happy. Who are you to say that you're unlucky? Even if you're unlucky, you asked for it," Qiao Lan said sternly. "You said that Tan Mo is the devil, you said that he's scary. How can you have the face to say such things? Compared to Tan Mo, you're more like the devil. You use other people's pain to satisfy yourself. Xiang Xiaohan, you're simply not human."

"I don't think Tan Mo is scary at all. I just think that Tan Mo is really pitiful to be liked by someone like you."

"Xiang Xiaohan, you're the most disgusting person I've ever seen in my life." She was even more disgusting than Qiao Lan's parents.

Qiao Lan didn't want to talk to Xiang Xiaohan anymore.

She didn't want to see this devil who stabbed a knife into Tan Mo's heart.

This kind of person would receive retribution one day. The more it was like this, the better she wanted to live with Tan Mo.

She only felt sorry for Tan Mo. She wanted to hug Tan Mo. She wanted to hug this boy that she liked the most, who had suffered so much in the past.

After walking out of the rooftop, Qiao Lan returned to the private room.

The private room was still very lively. The splicing was nearing its end.

It had to end.

Because Hao Ying was completely drunk.

Qiao Lan was really shocked. Hao Ying, a 1.87 meter tall man, was actually crying while hugging his close friend.

Qiao Lan walked closer and heard Hao Ying wiping his tears and blessing Hao Ying. "I wish you both happiness!"

Tan Mo sat on the sofa opposite them. He didn't move and said indifferently, "Thank you."

"I'm so f * cking sad." Hao Ying continued to howl. He poured out everything that he usually didn't say after getting drunk. "It's the first time I've ever chased someone in my life, and it was snatched away …"

Qiao Lan was speechless. What kind of snatching was this? She knew Tan Mo much earlier than Hao Ying.

Qiao Lan sat beside Tan Mo helplessly and asked him in a low voice.

"I'm fine." Tan Mo glanced at her and finally said something to Hao Ying kindly for the first time. "I hope you find a girlfriend soon."

Hao Ying waved his hand. "I'm not looking for one. I'm so sad." When he looked up and saw Qiao Lan, he looked at Qiao Lan with a pair of bleary eyes and said affectionately, "If he doesn't want you anymore and you two break up, remember to look for me. I'll always be here …"

Tan Mo, who just felt sad for Wan Qian, was speechless.

Holding the bottle in his hand, he suddenly wanted to stand up and hit someone.

Qiao Lan, who was frowning because of the pain from Tan Mo's sudden pinch, was speechless.

'Why did I come in???'

The brothers who were watching the show finally couldn't stay idle. A few of them helped Hao Ying up and walked away. "You're drunk. Just treat what you said as farts." They dragged Hao Ying to the sofa on the other side. "Brother, brother, do you want some tea?"

"No." Hao Ying refused while sobbing. "I want to sing."

"Okay, okay, okay. What do you want to sing? I'll order for you."

Hao Ying stood up unsteadily. "I'll order it myself."

Half a minute later, everyone, including Tan Mo, was speechless when they saw the title of the song.

'I'll Always Wait for You'

The first line of the lyrics:

Your heart won't stop for me. Your heart won't wait for me.

Qiao Lan was speechless.

He grabbed Tan Mo's hand and said, "It's getting late. Let's go back first." He pulled Hao Ying out of the door and blocked her heart-wrenching "My Tears Are Falling" from the door.

When they finally walked out, a cold wind blew. Qiao Lan took out his phone and said, "Wait for me. There's a car …"

Before he finished speaking, Tan Mo suddenly hugged Qiao Lan from behind and knocked his head heavily on Qiao Lan's shoulder.
