The Old Friendships Are SuperiorChapter 1

We're recruiting a translator for this novel.
Join us!

There’s a common saying: For clothes, the newer the better; but for friendships, older ones are more cherishable. In my opinion, this is nonsense.

Of course new friends are better than the old ones. The old ones belong in the past; so continuously yearning about them scars my pride and dignity. UZdOYn

As Zhang Jing pushed open the bar’s entrance, Lin Zhou saw him and waved his hands from a distance. Seeing him, Zhang Jing smiled, walked over there, flippantly pulled at Lin Zhou’s shirt, and remarked, “Your clothes are so seductive today. Who are you trying to pull?”

“I’ll pull anyone interested,” Lin Zhou responded. Then he signaled to the bartender to give Zhang Jing a glass of wine. “You’ve been coming here very often these days?”

“I mean, it’s currently spring.” Zhang Jing, leaning on the bar counter, raised the glass and sipped a little. “Even the cats are trying to mate in the spring season.”

Lin Zhou giggled, “In that case, you’re just an indoor cat, so don’t expect to pull a wild cat. You wouldn’t enjoy it, and you wouldn’t have the courage to play either.” FKu5cN

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

“Bruh.” Zhang Jing chugged the entire glass of wine, and his throat undulated in a rather sexy manner. He licked his lips, “Me? Scared of playing? I’m coming outside just to find some fun.”

Zhang Jing pushed him away and wiped his own face, “You’re so disgusting.”

Now that Lin Zhou did this, Zhang Jing’s mood was ruined. He felt really irritated, as if he just ate a spoonful of rotten food that he refuses to swallow, but he can’t spit it out either.

Lin Zhou stood next to him while he was stuck in his thoughts. But when he was about to say something, the figure next to him had already disappeared. Zhang Jing scanned his surroundings to check where he went, and then he saw Lin Zhou heatedly kissing a young chick.

Zhang Jing sneered and turned around to the bartender, “Give me a dozen Budweiser beers.”

The bartender nodded and placed twelve beers and a glass of ice cubes in front of him. Zhang Jing smiled at him with a promiscuous and insincere wink.

The bartender looked young, so he was probably a college student at a part-time job. Seeing Zhang Jing, he immediately blushed and lowered his flustered face. kSDQRy

Zhang Jing chuckled to himself and thought, “See, it looks like I still have charm.”

Twelve whole bottles, Zhang Jing gulped every single drop of it. The more he drank, the more giddy and light-headed he felt. Everyone around him appeared to be swaying and distorted. Zhang Jing can’t identify people, but surprisingly he could still hear their conversations. Hence the crowded bar and the blasting music worsened his headache.

Just as he frowned and continued to drink from the wine glass, suddenly a figure sat next to him. He grasped Zhang Jing’s empty wine glass and commented, “It seems so pitiful—you drinking alone.”

Zhang Jing firmly squinted his eyes, hoping to identify the guy’s face—he doesn’t recognize him. WVqdpO

So Zhang Jing slipped his hand off of the wine glass, and ignored him.

That guy didn’t persist either, so he turned around to converse with the bartender.

“Is today a holiday? It’s crowded here.”

His voice was somewhat low, so the bartender didn’t comprehend what he said. When he was about to repeat himself, Zhang Jing waved his hand and mumbled, “Today is April Fool’s Day…” 1zbIWT

“April first.”

“Idiot’s Day.”

For some reason, when he said “Idiot’s Day,” his heart suddenly ached so much that he crossed his eyebrows and touched his chest.

Oh right…today is Idiot’s Day. Everyone that’s alone is all idiots. s4wxZH
