Film and Television: Gaining a Charismatic Aura at the Start

Page 274

When Chen Meijia returned in the third season, she didn't know that the bar downstairs had been turned into a foot massage parlor.

. . .

I left before the bar downstairs was sold, and the bar downstairs had already started renovations.

She was no longer there.

"Yifei didn't tell me."

"Never mind, that's not important. What's important is that I'll take you out to have some fun later."

"Let's go."

Hu Yifei was probably angry that he hadn't come back for the past few days, so she didn't tell him that Chen Meijia had left.

But that's not important either.

Anyway, he doesn't come back often, so it doesn't really matter to him who's in the apartment.

"You're not going to take me to a foot massage parlor, are you?"

"I'll go if you treat me, but I don't have much food left."

"Meijia is gone, and now I'm a bit strapped for cash."

When Chen Meijia was around, Guan Gu Shenqi could rely on her to cook for him every day, and the cost wasn't very high.

But as soon as Chen Meijia left, not only did he stop eating, but his room became a complete mess.

It's been a long time since I tidied up, but today Guan Gu Shenqi did a rare tidying up. After finishing, I wanted to go downstairs for a drink to relax.

And that's how it turned out.

Bai Tianyu said with disdain.

"Let's skip the foot bath next time. This time, I'll take you to a bar."

"Seriously, there are plenty of bars around here, can't you go out and look for one?"

"But I also need to be able to read the words on it!"

"How about it?"

"Isn't this place so much better than the bar downstairs?"

After Bai Tianyu figured out why Guan Gu Shenqi wasn't going to look for a bar, he took Guan Gu Shenqi to the bar where Salad worked.

That is, "The Lonely Corner," that bar.

Watching Guan Gu Shenqi stroll through the Grand View Garden with Granny Liu, he seemed so ignorant and unsophisticated.

Bai Tianyu couldn't help but tease him.

Guan Gu Shenqi watched the beautiful waitresses coming and going, and couldn't help but nod frantically.

"Okay, great."

"Not only are the customers beautiful, but the waitresses are also very beautiful."

Especially that busty waitress who just passed by.

It's really beautiful and big.

She was just as stunning as the busty beauty they'd seen with Lu Ziqiao last time.

Moreover, this bar is more than twice the size of the "113" bar downstairs.

Of course it's bigger, because this is the bar that Huang Baoqiang acquired in the third season.

Bai Tianyu acquired the bar ahead of time.

Although selling after the start of the third season would have been the best option, the value would have definitely decreased considerably.

But Bai Tianyu doesn't lack the money.

With the addition of Sarah, both Ah Bing and Amy are already his women.

So let's just take over the bar.

Now that he's already taken over a bar, Bai Tianyu naturally wouldn't mind taking over a few more.

Bai Tianyu bought out several of the surrounding properties.

And it's integrated with the entire bar.

The bar is even more popular now than it was after Huang Baoqiang acquired it in Season 3.

It not only includes restaurants, but also a dedicated gym and activity rooms.

The restaurant offers both Western and Chinese cuisine, but most importantly, it features authentic Nanjing cuisine.

It was a chain store that Bai Baiyu had his father open.

It contains the most authentic Nanjing salted duck, roast duck, and braised duck.

The gym has treadmills, weightlifting equipment, and everything else you could want.

Didn't Bai Tianyu acquire a gym before?

The gym was right next to the bar, so it was easily integrated into the space.

Nowadays, you can get a gym membership and enjoy free drinks at bars.

Of course, it's limited to one cup per day.

The activity room is quite simple, with ping-pong tables and billiard tables.

This highlights the importance of comprehensive service.

So this bar is truly comprehensive.

If you're hungry, you can go eat next door; if you're thirsty, you can come over for a drink and flirt a bit.

If you're bored, you can go to the gym or play table tennis or ping pong.

Relaxed and comfortable.

"Guan Gu, what brings you all here?"

Just as Guan Gu was feeling sentimental, a familiar voice rang out from behind them.

Turning around, I saw it was Lü Ziqiao.

This guy just came out of the toilet; he obviously went to use the restroom.

"How dare you say that? You're having a blast outside, while I'm bored all alone in the apartment."

"If Bai Tianyu hadn't stood by and watched me die, I probably would have been bored to death by myself."

When Guan Gu Shenqi saw Lü Ziqiao, his anger immediately flared up, and he pointed at Lü Ziqiao's nose and accused him.

However, the idioms used to describe them sound off to people immediately.

What does it mean to stand by and watch someone die? Shouldn't it be about helping out in a righteous way?

"What a mess."

"You brought him here, so it seems you already knew about this bar."

"That's not very nice of you. You knew about such a great place but didn't tell your buddy."

Lu Ziqiao couldn't be bothered with Guan Gu Shenqi; this guy was the type who would get more excited the more you paid attention to him.

As expected, after ignoring Guan Gu Shenqi, Lu Ziqiao sat alone at the bar, sulking.

"Why should I tell you?"

"I know what kind of person you are, but if I tell you and then let you come and cause trouble for this place, the boss will definitely kill you!"

Bai Tianyu's words left Lü Ziqiao speechless.

He knew very well that once someone had been cheated on by him, they would almost never go to a bar again.

The bar had warned him before.

If he continues like this, he will be banned from entering bars.

Now look what's happened, the bar downstairs has closed down.

Lu Ziqiao had reason to suspect that he was involved.

It's very likely that he lost too many regular customers because he dated too many women, which led to poor management and the company going bankrupt.

This is very possible.

Because even Lu Ziqiao himself couldn't remember how many girls he could chat up in a month.

How many girls has he cheated on again...?

In short, once he's been a jerk, he'll never come to the bar again the next day.

Lu Ziqiao was perfectly aware of this.

Knowing he was in the wrong, Lü Ziqiao had nothing to say about Bai Tianyu's explanation.

He could only come up to Guan Gu Shenqi's side and pat him on the shoulder.

He said with a grin.

"Guan Gu, it's not my fault. Who knows what you've been doing cooped up at home?"

"What if you're busy? You know your own temper."

"I hate it when people disturb you while you're drawing."

Upon hearing this, Guan Gu Shenqi thought it made sense and forgave Lu Ziqiao for his lack of loyalty.

We started chatting.

Meanwhile, Bai Tianyu and Sarah began exchanging flirtatious glances.

Seeing this, Ah Bing couldn't help but roll her eyes, walked up to Bai Tianyu, and said in an annoyed tone.
