The Disappearing Wedge (This chapter is free)

The weather just turned colder, and the wind that rose after night was cooler and the night was like water. The car turned from Outer Ring West Road to Qingnian Road, and from Mingcheng Hotel to Jinyi Lake, it stretched south for several kilometers. You could see girls standing in the streets everywhere giving charming eyes to the passing men.

Zhang Ke slowed down his car, holding a cigarette in his mouth, looking at the street girl who was walking back and forth on the sidewalk after nightfall. The large area of ​​snow-like skin was under the greedy and dim street lights. Du Fei shook his eyebrows and said with a smile: "You said there are shemale figures with super good figures, how can you tell?" Several girls surrounded him, stretched out two fingers and shook desperately. They couldn't hear their bright red lips spitting out through the glass window. Du Fei almost put his eyes on the window glass: "It's only 200 yuan per day, it's really a good product."

"That must be your money for them..." Zhang Ke said with a smile.

"Damn it," Du Fei heard Zhang Ke say this, and he jumped like a thunderous thunder. "The chastity that I have been holding for half my life has been destroyed in your hands."

Zhang Ke laughed loudly.

Zhang Ke and Du Fei have been close friends for seven years. After graduation, Zhang Ke was slutty and unrestrained, while Du Fei was still a virgin until his last year of graduate school. This was an era when he was ashamed of virginity. Du Fei could no longer bear his virginity, so he asked Zhang Ke to take him to find a lady, stuffing his 5,000 yuan project reward just given to him by his supervisor in his pocket. At that time, Zhang Ke was the account manager of Longyu Group. Due to business needs, he knew the best in Haizhou City and took Du Fei to Shengshi Nianhua Bar, which is said to have the most beautiful lady in Haizhou, and was ready to help Du Fei get rid of his embarrassing virginity. In the middle, Zhang Ke used the excuse to go to the bathroom, took out a cigarette and put it in front of Du Fei, with the filter facing out, and then

Pressing the cigarette box on the cigarette, Du Fei didn't know that this was a sign of being a cowherd in Haizhou City. He looked at the gorgeous and sexy girl in the bar. He was nervous and didn't have the courage to chat with her. He could only wait for Zhang Ke to find a lady. Before Zhang Ke returned to his seat, a sexy and beautiful girl came to talk. Du Fei had only time to change his eyes with Zhang Ke who was out of the toilet, and then went to the hotel to untied her clothes. When he got up in the morning, he was hesitating how much money he should pay the girl, but the girl took out a stack of banknotes and threw it in front of him. Du Fei was surprised and forgot to stop the girl and ask what was going on. When he came back to ask Zhang Ke, Zhang Ke said the reason with his hands and feet. Du Fei looked furious at first, but not long after, he talked to Zhang Ke to discuss how to spend the money.

Zhang Ke and Du Fei are so intimate.

Du Fei is definitely not an ugly man, otherwise Zhang Ke's trap would not have succeeded. The reason why he was still a virgin in the last year of graduate school was that he had a sad past in high school, and then he met the paid one-night stand girl again and had a relationship. Later, after learning that the paid one-night stand girl was the mistress of the boss of Haizhou Fengmao Group, Du Fei agreed with Zhang Ke's outlook on life of "men are born to seek pleasure", but continued to maintain that kind of relationship with the paid one-night stand girl.

The car arrived at the captain's bar, and Popeye on the sign was leaning on a huge anchor. Du Fei jumped out of the car and stood behind the car to direct Zhang Ke to turn the car into the parking space. Zhang Ke felt the position, and Du Fei was still shouting: "Down, fall down, fall down, don't stop." Zhang Ke pulled out the key and got out of the car, and looked at the rear of the car: "Down, fall down, still want to frame me, don't give up?"

"Aren't you still five centimeters away?" Du Fei smiled. He used his brains a lot for the sake of Xue Niu Lang's shame, but Zhang Ke's ghost spirit never got deceived.

Zhou Xiaolu received a call from Du Fei and walked to the door of the bar. She had a plump figure, beautiful face, and tender skin. Zhang Ke couldn't help but look at her for a few more times, thinking that if Du Fei didn't invest in any feelings, it would be a great pleasure. Zhou Xiaolu is Du Fei's paid one-night stand girl. Zhang Ke's eyes stopped on Zhou Xiaolu for a moment, and then floated to the seemingly innocent girl standing behind Zhou Xiaolu. After three months of being with her ex-girlfriend, Zhang Ke was physically and mentally exhausted. She has recently successfully broken up. Du Fei and Zhou Xiaolu are about to trap Zhang Ke in the sea of ​​suffering again, and keep introducing those seemingly innocent girls to Zhang Ke.

Today, the girl who seems pure is Zhang Jing, with long legs and slender waist, and a tall and graceful neck that Zhang Ke likes. She is wearing a chiffon shirt with large pleated lapels. She can't tell the size of her breasts, her eyes are long and charming, and she looks a little like Tang Jing. Her name is the same. This makes Zhang Ke feel very moved. Her skin is white and greasy. Although she is dressed as a white-collar worker, Zhang Ke doesn't believe it, because Zhou Xiaolu often pretends to be a white-collar worker and is vivid in her words, and she is not worse than Zhang Ke when speaking English.

While drinking, Zhou Xiaolu revealed Zhang Ke's true feelings and counted the girl she had dumped since she met Du Fei. Du Fei swore to Zhang Ke that Zhang Jing was a proud and beautiful woman, and mocked Zhang Ke for sure that she would make mistakes in front of Zhang Jing.

Zhou Xiaolu was still telling Zhang Ke's romantic past. Zhang Ke grabbed Du Fei's neck and pulled it under the table: "You two adulterers and tycoons are too useless. Before the game started, they kept tearing down my desk. How can they play?"

"This will allow you to get more money and reflect your level. How about it? Do you have the courage?" Du Fei stretched out his hand, "In the prosperous age, five consumptions, do you gamble?"

"Go, I'm not sure, it's not difficult at all. If I slap her, she can't help but fall in love with me."

"You must really dare to take action, and you will fulfill the five consumptions of the prosperous times before the New Year." Du Fei looked contemptuous, of course he didn't believe it. Zhang Ke didn't bother with him, and the two of them returned to the table to continue drinking. Zhou Xiaolu proposed to take the truth and take a big adventure. Zhang Ke shook his head and refused. Du Fei smiled and said that Zhang Ke didn't dare to reveal anything. Zhang Jing's little slutty smiled but didn't say anything, which was really a bit tempting.

Zhang Ke took a sip of wine, changed his serious expression, and said, "We will not play the truth, let's tell you a very tragic story." After a pause, Du Fei also sat upright. "In the past, there was a girl and a boy who grew up together, went to kindergarten together, went to elementary school together, and then went to junior high school together, and until college together, the two of them almost never left each other's sight. The boy was emotionally a very passive person. Although they were together, they carefully concealed their emotions, let alone confessed directly. Let's look at it now, this boy is a bit stupid, but thinking about our youth, we ask about emotions.

The question is really so naive. The girl also likes that boy in her heart. Although the boy has been by her side, she prefers the boy to express his feelings directly. She has been waiting for her high school career, and the same goes for four years of college life..." At this point, Zhang Ke paused, narrowed his eyes, and his eyes fell into Zhang Jing's bright eyes. He smiled and said, "After four years of college life, girls are getting more and more dazzling, but boys seem a little ordinary. Perhaps because of this, the boys have lost the courage to confess their love. Even if they know the girl's mind, boys will have many concerns. Du Fei has experience of this, and you can talk to him for communication..."

Du Fei beat Zhang Ke: "Tell me your story, what does it have to do with me..."

"Speak quickly, talk quickly..." Zhou Xiaolu urged beside her.

Zhang Ke said with a faint smile on his lips, "During this period, the girl rejected many people who loved her until a man appeared. A man who was very persistent and patient. In fact, the girl was a little disappointed with the boy and could not resist the man's passionate pursuit. This man is also very outstanding, almost as good as me..."

"Why are you so shameless?" Zhou Xiaolu interrupted, "Okay, we know how trash this man is. This section is skipped..."

"Skip it?" Zhang Ke smiled, "The girl became the man's girlfriend. At this point, the boy realized the pain of losing the girl. When the girl and the man were about to leave the city and return to the man's hometown, he confessed to the girl. The girl returned to the boy's side, and finally got married and had a child..."

"This is not miserable, isn't it a great reunion?" Zhang Jing asked with her clear black and white eyes tilted her head.

"For that man, is the story very miserable?" Zhang Ke took a sip of wine and let the wine slide down his throat. "The man also loved the girl very sincerely, but his sorrow was beyond the reach of others because he was the supporting role of this story."

The three of them were slightly stunned, but Du Fei came back to his senses first and laughed and said, "If you can squeeze out two tears, it will be even more amazing."

The four of them continued to drink until midnight. Zhang Ke felt a little emotional and drank a little more, but he was still clear. When he went out, Du Fei stretched out his hand and gestured in front of Zhang Ke. Zhang Ke knew that he was asking him whether the bet before drinking was counted. Zhang Ke grinned, and to the side of his body, he waved to Zhou Xiaolu behind him, but his head hit the glass door in front of him. The tempered glass was strong, and Zhang Ke sat on the ground. The cockpit of the winery in the bar made a loud laugh. Zhang Ke stared at the people in the bar and asked in a daze, "What are you laughing at?" He supported his hands and wanted to stand up, his feet softened, and his whole body hid on the ground.

"He drank too much, what he just said was the real thing. When he got emotional, he could easily drink too much," Du Fei reached out to raise half of Zhang Ke's body from his armpit, dragging him out of the bar like a corpse, and said to Gu Qing, "I'll take him back, you can take a taxi back, so that he won't vomit all over you, help me first..."

Du Fei handed Zhang Ke's dead body to the two women, and he took out the car keys to open the car door.

"Where is this?" Zhang Ke raised up, and glanced at him in confusion, almost staring at Zhang Jing's face. "Who are you?" He waved his hand, and seemed unintentional, but he waved it to Zhang Jing's face, "Get out, I never look for a lady..." Zhang Jing slapped the slap, and loosened his hand. Before Zhang Ke finished speaking, his body lost support, and his head rushed to the window of the car, with a loud bang, and he sat on the ground, but his body did not sit on the cement, and he did not move.

"It's okay," Du Fei was startled and rushed over to apologize, "This muddy boy has drunk too much, and he really treats you as a lady. When he wakes up, I will let him apologize to you." Du Fei hurriedly stuffed Zhang Ke into the carriage, driving halfway through, feeling one hand scratching his neck behind his back, and was startled. When he turned around, Zhang Ke was sitting there, and he didn't look drunk: "Five years of prosperity, including the cost of finding a lady, please wait for bankruptcy."

"Fuck, you're really good at it."

"This is called a surprise victory." Zhang Ke smiled proudly, and changed to Du Fei. He drove him to the company's dormitory. It was almost an hour in the morning when he returned to his doghouse. The city was in a quiet night. Zhang Ke turned on the computer player, clicked on "Bossanovababy", took out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, and swayed his body gently to the rhythm of the music in Elvis' vicissitudes of singing. Just as the beer was halfway, the phone rang. When it was answering the phone, it was my mother's voice: "What's the matter, it's almost a little, and I'm still calling so late?"

"Your dad is playing cards, I'm with him. Anyway, I'm bored. I'll see when my son will return to the doghouse until late at night."

"I'm crazy, just take care of my dad and advise him not to stay up late to play cards. He thought his body could be compared with his son?"

"Your dad's temper is enough to listen to my advice..."

Listening to his mother's sigh on the other end of the phone, Zhang Ke felt a little sad. It wasn't that he was angry that his father was addicted to gambling, but that he lamented his father's sadness. Zhang Ke thought to himself: If it weren't for the 14-year injustice that implicated his father, his father would probably be the mayor of a certain place, and the secretary of the municipal party committee might have become the current gambler?

Fourteen years ago, the case of Haizhou Municipal Party Committee Secretary Ding Xiangshan framed Deputy Mayor Tang Xueqian and caused a sensation in the whole country when the truth was revealed a few years later. Fourteen years ago, Zhang Ke's father Zhang Zhixing was the deputy secretary-general of Haizhou Municipal Government and the person promoted by Executive Vice Mayor Tang Xueqian. Before becoming the deputy secretary-general, he was Tang Xueqian's secretary for a long time. When Tang Xueqian was framed, he asked someone to bring a message to Zhang Zhixing and asked him to avoid it. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhixing left Haizhou and fled for fear of crime, and became one of the supporting evidences of Tang Xueqian's guilt. A few years later, Tang Xueqian, who was wronged and almost collapsed, could not remember that he asked someone to tell Zhang Zhixing at that time. Zhang Zhixing's escape was of course regarded as the most shameful betrayal by people.

Zhang Zhixing's lifelong intelligence was mistaken for the person who was in the conversation. He could not make a living for the rest of his life and felt depressed. He was less than fifty years old and had white hair. Over the years, he had his will on the gambling table. For people who were extremely smart, Zhang Zhixing naturally played whatever he wanted. Not long after, few neighbors around him were willing to play cards with Zhang Zhixing again.

Zhang Ke knew that his father was depressed. It was true that his father rarely lost money, but the money he won had turned into a remittance slip for out-of-school children over the years. His father was not addicted to gambling life, he just used this method to express his feelings. However, this made Zhang Ke feel even more unfair about his father's fate.

Zhang Ke hung up the phone, finished drinking beer, opened the window, threw the can from the height of the twenty-story floor, and prayed with a serious expression: "God of Dogs, I hope it can hit the dogs' BMW that I have disliked for a long time." A moment later, a dull sound came, and the can fell on the concrete floor. Zhang Ke dismissed the ** who used a hammer to smash the car, wanted to smoke, and took out his pocket, and then remembered to take Du Fei away at the table, hesitating whether to go downstairs to buy cigarettes, and remembered the girl with acne-faced face of Su Jie Convenience Chain, Zhang Ke immediately gave up this idea, quickly washed up and went to bed, sat at the head of the bed and took out a book, and soon stayed until two in the morning to bed.

The sleep is very light, and you will fall into some confusion and complex dreams in the morning, awakening the sunshine shining on your face in the morning. Zhang Ke looked at the plain wall ceiling for a while, and couldn't remember the dream he had just experienced.

In front of the mirror, Zhang Ke tied up the blue twill tie, picked up his briefcase, changed his shoes, stood behind the door quietly for some time, and only heard a click outside the door, which was the sound of opening the door to the door. Zhang Ke also quickly opened the door. A beautiful girl in a red short windbreaker was locking the door with Zhang Ke on her back. When she heard the sound, she turned around and smiled sweetly, saying, "I happened to go out at the same time as Mr. Zhang."

"Oh, is that?" Zhang Ke raised his hand and looked at his watch. "I always go out at this time, which only means that Miss Luo is also a punctual person."

"Is there any?" The girl's gorgeous face showed a confused look. "I thought I was late to go out today. I was in a hurry and didn't even dare to comb my hair. I just tied it up and it was messy." The girl pulled a strand of her hair and raised it, with a little shy expression.

"Want me to tell the truth?" Zhang Ke raised his eyes a little, staring at the girl's beautiful eyes, "It looks messy, but there are some very distinct levels. Miss Luo doesn't say it, I'm going to praise your hairstyle, but it really suits your face..."

"Really?" The girl's face became even more shy. She walked into the elevator with Zhang Ke. Zhang Ke began to pray that the elevator would suddenly be powered off at this moment. She squinted her eyes and thought for a while, and the elevator door suddenly opened, which was really disappointing.

"Ha, Miss Luo," a young man with greasy head poked out of the blue BMW and waved to the girl, "I'll take you to the company."

The girl waved her hand at Zhang Ke and quickly got into the BMW. Zhang Ke was very upset at this time why she didn't use a hammer to smash the BMW last night. She thought about changing her strategy, and got into the Jetta, started the car, and drove to the company. Zhang Ke was the manager of the Longyu Group branch, and his work started at nine o'clock in the morning. He was still in the car at this time, listening to the morning broadcast on the radio, there was no special news. When he approached the intersection of Hongjiang Road, his phone rang. It was a strange mobile phone number, but it was a familiar voice when it was connected. Zhang Ke couldn't remember who would come.

"Remember me?"

"Why don't you remember it, it's just strange that you still remember me?" Zhang Ke pulled around.

"It's only been one night. Do you think I'm amnesia? Have you sobered up?"

It turned out to be the girl Zhang Jing who was with Zhou Xiaolu. Thinking of her long and charming eyes, Zhang Ke almost whistled and smiled softly: "Thank you really, I woke up at four o'clock in the morning and found that she was sleeping in her own bed. I really want to thank you very much. How about treating you to dinner at night?"

"Why do you have to thank me? I always have to give me a reason?"

Zhang Ke smiled, thinking about how to spend money in the prosperous era to make Du Fei bankrupt, but he was not careless: "If it weren't for you, Du Fei and Zhou Xiaolu, two adulterers, could they throw me on the street, do you think I want to thank you..." Zhang Ke looked up at the traffic light at the intersection and just jumped the green light. He turned the steering wheel with one hand, and the harsh brake sound suddenly rang. Before Zhang Ke could react, the violent impact had already thrown others and the car far away...

"This god god..." Zhang Ke didn't even have time to complain, the feeling of death was hanging over the sky of consciousness, sucking all Zhang Ke's vulgar souls in...
