A Bookworm’s New Routine

NIGHT CLUB

Mu Qi and Hu Ying, after many twists and turns, finally reached the entrance of the night club. In front were two or three little punks with yellow hair, studs on their ears, and tiger and leopard tattoos on their arms, just like those big shots (!).

(!) Big shots meaning the gang bosses
​
Mu Qi and Hu Ying were also famous in this area and were good at fighting, so when the three little punks saw them, they gave them a sideways glance for a while until they went in, and then they withdrew their gaze.

Su Yanxi stood at the corner, looking at the door of the night club, and with the gazes of the people coming and going, she hesitated whether to go in or not.

“Qi-ge!” The waiter of the night club, Xiao Ma, saw them from a distance and hurriedly greeted them.

Everyone knows that Mu Qi has a powerful father, and Mu Qi is a fighter in this area, so she is naturally respected by some people. Of course, she has also saved the night club owner once, so she is regarded as the owner’s savior.

“Two glasses of juice.” Mu Qi carried her schoolbag and sat on a corner booth.

Every time they come, they order juice, and the waiter, Xiao Ma, was used to it. He doesn’t say a word, and just greets the people along the way and goes to the counter to order.

At the moment, the dance floor below was already packed with a group of young people, each body leaning against each other, each swaying their bodies to the explosive music and under the blurred lights.

“Qi-ge, I’ll go down first.” Hu Ying stood up and said, already unable to bear it. 

“Hmm.” Mu Qi leaned on the sofa with her legs crossed and a cigarette dangling from the corner of her mouth, and looked at the dance floor quietly.

A beautiful girl with a little bit of coolness, in this scene, will naturally attract the attention of others, so someone came up to strike up a conversation.

“Xiao Qi, come here!” (!) The boss lady had been in the back lounge, but when she heard Xiao Ma say that Mu Qi came, she immediately twisted her slender waist and walked over with a red wine glass. She sat next to Mu Qi, on the armrest of the other sofa. 

(!) Xiao meaning little or young (so, Xiao Qi = Little/Young Qi)

“Hong-jie.” (!) Mu Qi removed the cigarette from her mouth, threw it into the ashtray on the table, and took the red wine glass handed over by the other party. 

(!) Jie meaning older sister (so, Hong-jie = Sister Hong)

“You haven’t been here for a long time, don’t you miss me?” Hong-jie lowered her body slightly. She was wearing a V-neck, so because of this action, a small piece of tender white flesh was exposed.

Mu Qi shifted her gaze, took a sip of the red wine and said, “I’ve been a little busy with my studies recently.”

Hong-jie smiled lowly, with charm and sexiness. Although she knew that she failed to seduce this little girl again, she didn’t care and continued to sit beside her, placing her hand on the back of the other party’s chair, looked at the dance floor and said, “You are a sophomore in high school this year, and a senior next year. Are you coming less often?”

Only then did Mu Qi set her eyes on her and said with a smile, “I will come to see Hong-jie when I have time.”

Hong-jie tapped her nose and smiled: “You're sweet.”

The last time, Hong-jie blocked her in front of the toilet and wanted to kiss her, and only then did Mu Qi know that every time Hong-jie seemed to tease her, she really didn’t tease her, but she really liked her. Since then, she has rarely come here. This time, because of her parents, she came here in a hurry.

But when she got here, she regretted it a little bit.

Although she had been planning something in her mind before she came, she abandoned this plan after she got here.

The plan to ‘take revenge’ on her parents with the news that she slept with a woman felt childish, really childish.

“Hong-jie, someone is making trouble at the door.” Xiao Ma ran over and said at this time.

Hong-jie glanced at him and said, “If you make trouble, you will be thrown out. Do I need to tell you that?”

Xiao Ma looked at Mu Qi embarrassedly, and then said to Hong-jie: “But that girl said that she was Qi-ge’s girlfriend.”

Hong-jie raised her eyebrows, and Mu Qi was surprised.

When the two of them arrived at the door, they heard a cry coming from the door.

Pushing aside the crowd, Mu Qi looked and saw Su Yanxi, who was wearing a school uniform, crying with a sad face, and immediately covered with black lines.

Seeing her expression, Hong-jie curled her red lips and said: “Know her?”

“Mu Qi!” As soon as she saw Mu Qi, Su Yanxi immediately ran over, hugged her, and looked at the yellow-haired punks with a scared face.

“Qi-ge, is this really your girlfriend?” One of the gangsters came out and asked.

Mu Qi took Su Yanxi by the collar, pulled the other party out of her arms, and glanced at the other party. The latter immediately stood in place obediently and didn’t dare to move.

Mu Qi said: “She is my friend, sorry.”

“Since she is Qi-ge’s friend, lets leave it alone. Let’s go.” Huang Mao finished speaking and greeted his brothers to leave.

Those who watched the scene with excitement also walked away and scattered. 

The door was crowded, but now there were only three people left.

Hong-jie took a closer look at Su Yanxi from top to bottom, and she could see the tender and innocent aura of this girl. She frowned quietly, then took out a cigarette from her pocket, put it in her mouth, and looked at Mu Qi.

Mu Qi immediately took out a lighter and lit it for her.

Su Yanxi secretly raised her head and saw the two of them very close, while clutching the strap of her school bag tightly and biting her lower lip.

“I’ll wait for you inside.” Hong-jie glanced at the two of them, then raised her hand, patted Mu Qi on the shoulder, and entered the night club.

When there were only two of them left in front of the door, Mu Qi leaned against the wall, looked at Su Yanxi in a relaxed manner and asked, “Are you following us?”

In Su Yanxi’s mind, the image of Mu Qi and that sexy woman getting very close just now appeared in her mind. She bit her lip and looked at Mu Qi without saying another word.

Because she had just cried, her eyes were still red at the moment, and she looked at her with moist eyes. Mu Qi’s vicious words turned into a sigh, and she turned around and said: “Come in.” 

She guessed that if she turned the other party away at this moment, the other party would not leave. From the fact that the other party cried and said that she was her girlfriend, she knew that the girl was determined to follow them.

Hu Ying just finished a dance, and before she sat down on the sofa, she saw Mu Qi come back, followed by a well-behaved girl in a school uniform. The lights shone on the other party. She was surprised and said: “Little Cutie? Why are you here?”

Su Yanxi didn’t dare to speak at this moment. She looked at Mu Qi who was standing in front of her, and lowered her head again, looking like a good baby.

“Bring her a glass of milk.” Mu Qi sat on the booth and said to Hu Ying.

“Okay.” Hu Ying immediately stood up from the sofa, winked at Su Yanxi, and ran away.

Su Yanxi had never been here before. Just now, because of Mu Qi’s pressure, she didn’t dare to look up and look around. After sitting down, she looked up. 

Wherever she looked, it was dark, and there was only a circle of small ceiling lights around the wall and colorful beams of light shooting randomly on the center of the dance floor, which flashed across everyone’s faces.

The ball in the middle was constantly rotating, and the colorful beams of light shone on it, making the entire dance floor look more dazzling. Coupled with the smoke spewing out from time to time, Su Yanxi was stunned.

“Do you want to go up and dance?” Hu Ying came back at this time, put the milk in front of her, and followed her gaze to the dance floor.

Su Yanxi retracted her gaze and shook her head immediately when she heard Hu Ying’s words.

Hu Ying sat next to her and said, “What are you afraid of? I can teach you if you don’t know how.” 

Su Yanxi waved her hand and said with a smile: “I won’t dance, I’ll just sit here.”

Hu Ying immediately clicked her tongue boringly and said, “Neither of the two want to dance, and it’s boring for me to dance alone.” Of course, amongst the two included Mu Qi. 

Every time the other party comes, she only sits, holding a cigarette and watching others dance on the dance floor, but she never steps into the dance floor.

If it hadn’t been for seeing the other party dance once before, and she danced very well, Hu Ying would really suspect that her dance was terrible so she didn’t want to dance.

“Don’t you want to teach the stinky mushroom to dance? Go.” Mu Qi looked at her.

Hu Ying snorted: “With so many people here, where can I find her?”

Mu Qi raised her chin and said: “I saw her, there she is, let’s go.” 

Hu Ying turned her head and looked at where Mu Qi was pointing at. Sure enough, the other party was really sitting on the corner booth with her two friends, only one dance floor away from them.

Qi Wei on the opposite side also saw them.

Hu Ying stood up and said with a smile on her face: “Then I’ll go.”

Mu Qi looked at her mean expression and hooked her lips.

Su Yanxi looked around curiously and found that she didn't know the stinky mushroom they were talking about.

“From the opposite school.” Mu Qi answered her in a good mood.

Su Yanxi blinked, looked at her, and then looked over there.

She only saw Hu Ying walking over and saying something to the girl with mushroom hair. Immediately, the girl’s expression turned angry, and gave her a middle finger, and then walked to the center of the dance floor without hesitation.

Mu Qi also looked at them and laughed.

Qi Wei couldn’t stand the agitation, so she was tricked.

Hu Ying has been by Mu Qi’s side for so many years, and she has already learned the skills of scolding people. It is not difficult to deal with Qi Wei. In two sentences, the other party will take the bait.

Seeing Hu Ying dancing on the dance floor while looking at Qi Wei provocatively, Mu Qi laughed again and again.

Su Yanxi’s gaze also shifted from Hu Ying and the others to Mu Qi.

The other party rarely smiled, but at this moment, perhaps because the other party is relaxed, not only was there no irritability on her face, but even the corners of her mouth were smiling.

Su Yanxi really hadn’t seen such Mu Qi in more than a month.

Although she was very happy to see the other party’s smile, she knew that the other party’s smile was not because of her own smile. Su Yanxi was a little jealous. She held the milk and drank it in small sips, blowing a few small milk bubbles from time to time to vent her jealousy.

Mu Qi looked at her and said she was like a child.

Su Yanxi turned a deaf ear and continued to blow her little milk bubble.
