Lonelinessis a person’s revelry; revelry is a group of people’s loneliness.
Lost Bar isa lonely nightclub for night revelry hidden in the depths of Sanlitun in Beijing.
Apart frominsiders, ordinary people don"t know much about this bar. Although it hangs abar sign, it is actually a real nightclub. There is a big difference betweenthe two.
Nightclubsprovide guests with drinks, food, s.p.a.ce and facilities, so that people can enjoythemselves here, provide fantastic enjoyment, and pay more attention toentertainment experience.
There aremany nightclubs in Sanlitun, but no one can compare with the Lost Bar in termsof grade and power.
But ordinaryguests can’t get in because it implements a members.h.i.+p system.
Every night,the parking lot outside the Lost Bar is full of luxury cars and sports cars.Mercedes-Benz and BMW are rare here. Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Porscheand so on are the mainstream.
Just after10 o"clock, a four-door Porsche F17 quietly pulled into the VIP parking s.p.a.ce.
Thisall-electric luxury sports car is a new product launched by Porsche this year. Itcontains a lot of the latest technological achievements of this established carcompany. It can travel more than 700 kilometers on a single charge. It onlytakes 3.5 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 100km. The price of the standardmodel is as high as 5,000,000!
Its greatestfeature is quietness, as if like a cheetah in the jungle. It is quiet but whenquick when it is hunting, and contains a lethal force that makes peopletremble.
So as soonas the F17 was launched, it won the favor of young rich and powerful people, andorders have been placed until 2018. (TN: It"s only 2015 in the story.)
In Beijing,there are no more than 10 Porsche F17.
The brightsilver door opened and five young men filed out towards the door of Lost Bar.
The man whowalked in front was in his 20s, about 1.75 meters tall, with short hair and alot of spirit. He was wearing a white casual suit, along with pants and shoes,which were obviously custom-made as there were no brand that could be seen fromthem.
“Goodevening, Young Li!”
The attendantin charge of guarding the door bowed and pushed open the gla.s.s door.
The man inwhite handed over a red bill and asked, “Have Sa Jiahao and the others comeyet? What about Sister f.a.n.n.y?”
The attendant,skillfully holding the money in his hand, responded warmly, “They arrivedhalf an hour ago, and Miss f.a.n.n.y came later. They are already inside.”
The man inwhite nodded and strode into the bar.
“Oh,look who’s here!”
As soon ashe entered, he was immediately discovered by someone: “Isn’t this our LiMubai, Third Young Master Li?”
The sarcasticvoice even overwhelmed the live music and clearly reached the ears of thepeople around him: “I heard you’ve recently been playing with your bandagain? Is this the night where you bring people here to show your incompetence?”
The one whoblocked Li Mubai"s way was a man in black T-s.h.i.+rt and of similar age. His dresswas undoubtedly much more fas.h.i.+onable than the former. He wore various silverornaments with religious symbols hanging on his body and three diamond earringsin his left ear. It’s all the popular fas.h.i.+on trend in j.a.pan and South Korea.
Thisfas.h.i.+onable man is not as tall as Li Mubai. He speaks with his head and noseup, so he appears quite arrogant.
Li Mubaismiled and said, “Sa Jiahao, I"m better at playing in the band than you areplaying with your female anchor, right? By the way, I haven’t thanked you forthe 100,000 yuan you lost to me last time. Just in time for me to install theinterior of the new car, the lambskin pad is comfortable to step on.
The man in blackT-s.h.i.+rt, Sa Jiahao, was Alsace, who had gambled with Li Mubai in the last PKtheme show compet.i.tion, where Lu Chen has won the second place because of LiMubai"s support.
Li Mubai iswell aware of the relations.h.i.+p between Sa Jiahao and Princess Yu, the femaleanchor he supports. (TN: Princess Yu is Lady Rain. First appeared on Chapter60.)
“Idon’t know what you’re talking about!”
All of asudden, Sa Jiahao exploded like a cat that got its tail stepped on.
He looked atthe woman who was walking towards them not far away, and said disdainfully,“100,000 yuan is nothing. It’s not even enough for Laozi to have a meal.You can take it as a treasure.
Li Mubai wastoo lazy to pay any attention to him. He went straight to the woman who had justcome over and said, “Sister f.a.n.n.y!”
The womannamed f.a.n.n.y has an outstanding appearance, long hair and a shawl that"s whiteas snow, a Chanel summer dress that made her look like a lady, a pair of soul-stirringeyes full of autumn waves, as if they could speak.
“Why doyou two always quarrel when you see each other?”
She saidangrily, “If you do this again, Xiaoqian and I will go and let you play byyourselves!”
Li Mubai quicklyraised his hands and said, “I know it is wrong. I won’t quarrel with thatidiot.”
“Who didyou say is an idiot?”
Sa Jiahao,who is behind him, jumped up and glared at Li Mubai viciously.
Li Mubai laughedand pretended not to see f.a.n.n.y’s reproachful eyes. He greeted the girl who wasnext to the latter, “Sister Xiaoqian, long time no see. Are you going tothe United States again after you come back this time?”
The girl wasabout 18 or 19-years-old. She was wearing a bloodred make-up and her disheveledhair looked like that of a legendary vampire.
She shouldbe very beautiful, but unfortunately, the rich and colorful mature dress obscuredher youthful appearance, but it gives people the feeling of indifference and adecadent atmosphere inside and outside.
“Callme Chen Qian!”
The vampiregirl rolled her eyes and said, “I don’t know you that well, but I can tellyou that neither Sister f.a.n.n.y nor I are going back to that broken place inAmerica. Are you happy?”
“Veryhappy!”
Li Mubai answeredstraightforwardly, staring only at f.a.n.n.y with a scorching look in his eyes.
The relations.h.i.+pbetween Li Mubai and Chen Qian is undoubtedly closer, but he likes thisbeautiful and gentle woman in front of him.
f.a.n.n.y’s faceflushed red by his bold gaze, and she became more and more attractive.
“D*mnit!”
Sa Jiahaowas upset. He was extremely upset.
He worked sohard at this evening party in the Lost Bar for f.a.n.n.y, who had just returnedfrom abroad.
Yet theresult is the limelight was stolen by Li Mubai, which was unbearable for him!
Just arguingwith Li Mubai has proved to be a very foolish act. Sa Jiahao had an idea. He suddenlyjumped to the T-shaped stage in the middle of the bar, and signaled the liveband to stop performing.
Having takenthe microphone, he shouted, “Brothers and sisters, our party tonight isfor Miss f.a.n.n.y and Miss Chen Qian, who have just returned from overseas. So,let’s raise our gla.s.ses together and wish the two young ladies that they may beyoung and beautiful forever!”
“Cheers!”
The men andwomen in the bar raised their gla.s.ses one after another.
The membersof Lost Bar are either rich or cla.s.sy, and they are basically very young. Theyhave their own special circle in Beijing, and not just anyone can squeeze in.
In fact,this nightclub is the entertainment spot of this circle. It often holds variousrevelry parties, and its controlling shareholders are all big brothers andsisters in the circle.
Sa Jiahao"sstatus in the circle is not high, but he is the initiator of tonight"s party,so everyone gave him a lot of face.
f.a.n.n.y alsotook a sip of the c.o.c.ktail with a smile.
Takingadvantage of the good atmosphere, Sa Jiahao continued, “I"ve prepared alot of programs for the two young ladies this evening. And It just so happenedthat our Li Mubai, Third Young Master Li, is here. Everyone knows that he hasbeen playing in the band recently and has brought all the members of the band. Whynot let Young Li sing a song for Miss f.a.n.n.y and Miss Chen Qian first?"
“Support!”
The peoplepresent basically know the feud between Sa Jiahao and Li Mubai. And there arepeople who desire to stir up trouble, and wish that the two people could fight directly.How can they not support it?
Sa Jiahaosmiled proudly and continued, “But what status does our Young Li have? If hesings someone else"s song, it would not have any meaning or sincerity! So howabout letting him sing the song he wrote himself? What do you say?”
He was trappinghim here!
“Good!”
This time,more people cheered. It"s not that Li Mubai’s popularity was too bad or that everyonewanted to see him make a fool of himself, but the guests in the evening werebasically invited by Sa Jiahao and had a better relations.h.i.+p with the latter.
f.a.n.n.y couldnot help frowning.
She knowsthat Li Mubai likes to play very much, but he really doesn’t have any talent increating music.
Sa Jiahaowants Li Mubai to sing his own works, isn’t he just forcing him to do somethingthat"s against his will?
As she wasabout to dissuade him, Chen Qian clapped her hands and said, “All right,Li Mubai, you go up there!”
Everyone"seyes, instantly all focused on Li Mubai!
