The Cage Of The Past

So the waiters placed the cutlery together with five people sat around the table.

"Oh, Rouzhen Gu, it turns out that you have a girlfriend?" Amy Woods said in pain.

Xiaoxi Chen lowered her head and wanted to say that she's not, but Rouzhen Gu said faintly, "Yes!"

She just wondered why she was here with Weicheng, did they know each other before this woman paired with Rouzhen.

There is an absent look at Weicheng Bai's face, and his mind is not with them.

Xiaoxi Chen saw that he take a cigarette, began to ignite, and then smoked. He was very depressed and seemed that his soul had been taken away.

"Weicheng, does Jenny Smith come here?" Rouzhen asks and glanced at him, who sat down opposite to them.

Weicheng has his cigarette, and his indifference face was covered with mist. Others couldn't see through. His face looked cold, and he didn't speak.

Chaoxing Bai said coldly. "Just a woman, brother, you should let go of her, wake up!"

"None of your business!" Weicheng Bai snorted.

Xiaoxi Chen's eyes signaled Chaoxing don't say anything more.

"Who is Jenny Smith?" Asked Amy Woods with a confused face.

No one answered her question; everyone went silent.

Weicheng Bai took a cigarette out, puff out a white smoke that covered his entire face. After he went silent for a long while, his thin lips whispered, and his words made everyone feel awkward. "She's a past friend!"

"Hope she is really a part of your past now!" Chaoxing looked at her brother and turned her eyes to Amy Woods with some doubts. This girl was as good as her name, sweet and lovely, she thought.

Xiaoxi Chen has never looked at Amy Woods because of the complicated relationship between the two of them. She is the daughter of his father, and she doesn't want to have any contact with her family.

Amy Woods seems to be very interested in Xiaoxi Chen. "Hey, what is your name?"

She asked casually to Xiaoxi.

Xiaoxi was stunned, thought that she also asked her this question last time, but this moment, she did not evade and said faintly, "Xiaoxi Chen!"

Perhaps her tone is very indifferent, so Rouzhen Gu feels a bit strange. In his impression, Xiaoxi Chen's tone is different than usual.

Rouzhen Gu asked with a sigh; she just smiled and said, "Come on, don't you get hungry?"

Amy Woods saw Xiaoxi is not willing to talk to her, she was felt wrong, frowned immediately and didn't say anything, but told Weicheng, "Weicheng, how about going to drink after dinner?"

Weicheng Bai slips his deep eyes, smokes, and nod casually. "Sure!"

He needs to have some drinks because he is very down as of this moment after he saw Jenny.

Chaoxing Bai sighed. "Where to drink? I will go with you too!"

"Are you going too?" Amy Woods asked her in a shocked tone.

"Yeah! I am afraid that the two of you get out of control after you both get drunk. I wanted to protect my brother," Chaoxing said in an irritable tone.

Everyone was shocked after they heard her words, and Amy Woods was a little embarrassed. "Miss Bai, you are hilarious!"

Rouzhen Gu slightly hooked his lips, but his face was still serious. He did not expect Xioaix Chen's friend, Chaoxing, to have a sharp mouth. "Yes, it's good for someone to go with you, can send you back after a drink!"

Weicheng is obviously not in the mood to make a joke, and his thoughts have no idea where to go.

"Don't take it seriously, and I am just joking!" Chaoxing thought that her anger should not be sent to Amy Woods, so she tries to break the ice. "Would you like to go together?"

She looked at Rouzhen Gu, and Xiaoxi Chen then asked them.

At this moment, Zion Ni's voice suddenly came in, "Wow! A party? Why don't you call me Rou Rou?"

As soon as she looked up and saw Zion, Xiaoxi stood up and said, "Brother Zion!"

Rouzhen Gu took possession of her to his side, so Xiaoxi sat back again.

Zion Ni saw she was sitting next to Rouzhen, also saw Rouzhen Gu's big hand was holding Xiaoxi's waist. He was stunned and laughed. "Xiaoxi, I haven't seen you for a long time!"

"I said, dear CEO, when are you going to apologize to your father and go back to work?" Zion Ni has been working overtime recently. When he saw, Rouzhen is just enjoying his life and has not seen him for more than a week, and he felt envious.

"You can also resign!" Rouzhen threw a word.

Zion Ni stunned. "Yeah, why didn't I think of it, I also want to resign, I am exhausted, I have to resign!"

Because Zion is joining them, everyone was so excited about hearing his words.

Mr. Ni, we are going to have a drink, you wanna join us?" Amy Woods asked with a smile.

"Drinking, okay, where should we go?"

"Bar, where we can have carnival!" Chaoxing Bai said with a faded voice, she has energy but can't make it because her brother was sad, and she was worried about him. So she can give vent through carnival!

"It's better to go to the KTV Bar so that we can sing and drink. We can enjoy it!" Amy Woods suggested.

Rozhen Gu presses his lips. He just came back from the United States. He still hasn't rested. After day exercise, he's exhausted and doesn't want to toss again. The most important thing is that he only wants to be with Xiaoxi.

"Rou Rou, don't reject, I have been exhausted recently, I have to complain to you, you must go!" Zion Ni directly blocked when Rouzhen wants to speak.

Rouzhen Gu nodded with helplessness. "Okay, let's go together!"

As a result, everyone went to a KTV bar after dinner. Chaoxing Bai and Amy Woods were singing, Xiaoxi Chen sat quietly and listened to them singing, while she noticed Weicheng was busy drinking wine. He looks lonely.

Suddenly Zion got an idea to call Jenny Smith. "I will call Jenny and asked her to come back here. It seems that we really need to help them. If they continue to treat each other like a stranger, their relationship will not be better. Past is past, but I think Weicheng still loves Jenny.

When hearing this, Weicheng smirked, but Zion ignored his reaction, then he stubbornly called Jenny.

"Jenny, do you want to come with us? We are here at the KTV bar!"

"No, I have something to do. I have to hang up now!" Then Jenny really hung up.

"Hey…" Zion Ni hurriedly shouted. "Don't hang---"

The other end went off.

"She hung up the phone, and it seems like they really have a problem! Last time their relationship was still good when the grand opening of the restaurant held, right?" Zion asked to Rouzhen.

Weicheng left when he heard what his friends wanted to do. He felt annoyed and feel betrayed the way Zion and Rouzhen teased him.

"They are getting more and more strange and isolated! Look, our friend Weicheng left without a word!" Rouzhen sighed.

"The problem is, this kind of isolation and strange feeling makes us feel sad, they are too indifferent with each other, too horrible, I can't stand it anymore. We are college friends and close with others but now it seems they are holding grudges with each other. I want to confront Weicheng!" Zion said.

"It's up to you!" Rouzhen Gu ignited a cigarette and gave it to Zion.

Zion Ni called Weicheng out. "hey, brother, can you please be not like this?"

"Weicheng just looked at Zion and showed a wry smile, but he didn't say speak anything.

"Weicheng, you wanted to hear my advice?" Zion came over him and patted his shoulder, "It seems that you think love is agony for you!"

"Weicheng, come on! Let it go!" Rouzhen said after they went to them.

"Blank!" Weicheng only spits out one word. Maybe he is crazy. He thought that he was really crazy. So many years, he still misses that woman, and the feeling is so strong, obviously no longer possible for them to be together, but he still can't help to think about her.

"Go, go in and sing, don't let me spoil everyone's good mood!" Weicheng got up.

The noisy, heavy metal in the private room rang in their ears, accompanied by the faint and decadent atmosphere. Under the dark lights, Chaoxing and Amy Woods actually sang love songs in deep affection; one of them act like a man and the other one act as a woman.

Amy Woods's voice is sweet, and Chaoxing's voice is hearty.

Xiaoxi Chen just sat on the sofa and listened to them singing.

"Why Xiaoxi don't sing?" Zion Ni suddenly asked.

"I don't know how to sing!" Xiaoxi said. She smiled and shook her head.

"Come here, just try it!" Chaoxing handed the microphone to Xiaoxi.

Xiaoxi Chen looks at Rouzhen with a hesitant look. His eyes looked at her. She frowned deeply, and her face immediately went red.

"Faster, I want to hear you sing!" Zion also pushing her, tossing and drinking with his two friends, "Come on! Do it! If you don't sing, then I will punish you for drinking!"

"But…" Xiaoxi wanted to say something.

"Sing, I know you love to sing, oh, sing the song that your mom likes!" Chaoxing suggested: "It's an old song, what's the name, oh, it is "Flower of the Sea!" this song sung by you were fascinated by a lot of boys in our school.

Xiaoxi is even more embarrassed. She sang that song in high school because her mom like it the most.

"Have you fascinated a lot of boys?" Rouzhen Gu squints his eyes dangerously, and he really had to listen to it. Xiaoxi saw Rouzhen frowned, and she forced to said: "Well, I sing, but I can't sing it well!"

Actually, she doesn't love singing. Especially after her mother passed away, she never sang again. She began to sing:

It's such a tender feeling, give me a dream.

I am hovering in the undulating waves, on her arms. It's such a deep affection, shaking my dream.

Tangle like every wave in the sea, on your body.

Dreams come true, turn around, waves come through, no worldly affairs.

Residual water wave, left grudge, only hope you live.

Yesterday's figure can follow.

You're such a miracle, crushing my dreams.

"It's like the bubble at the water, temporary bright. It's my life.

Dreams come true turn around, wave come through, no worldly affairs.

Residual water wave left grudge is the only hope he lives.

The song ended. Xiaoxi tries her best to sing. This song is her mother's favorite song, and she likes it too. Mainly like the lyrics, the song tangled knots, and unclear feelings.

Her voice is lovely and soft, with an ethereal feel. Her voice makes everyone stunned while listening. Rouzhen Gu's eyes are getting deeper while looking at her.

After her song, everyone went silent.

Xiaoxi was shocked, and she immediately blushed.

"I said, I don't know how to sing!"

She put down the microphone and went to the sofa on the side then sit down. As a result, everyone immediately applauded. Rouzhen was thinking, and he couldn't let her sing in the future, could only let her sing for him because her voice is really amazing and soft, even listening to her song he had responded.

"Good, really nice!" Amy Woods smiled. My father also like this song very much, and often listens at home! Miss Chen, fate brought us together!

When Xiaoxi heard her words, she suddenly stunned, and her body was a bit stiff. Yes, she knew the truth that her father like this song so much, but she can't tell Amy the truth.

Rouzhen Gu sits next to her, and then everyone began to sing again. Chaoxing and Amy Woods voices played them around.

Zion Ni and Weicheng are still busy drinks on the other side.
