Because the Chinese restaurants are far apart, and Bai Ye refuses to come out to eat with them, Ji Huan took Yisheng to a nearby small restaurant, "I have to read the information when I go back at night, can I accompany you to eat Chinese food another day?"

Yisheng was a little disappointed in his heart, but he quickly pressed himself down, smiled and said, "Okay." ”

It's a local-owned restaurant, and although it's small, it's packed with everything.

Not long after taking a seat, Ji Huan realized that he seemed to have made a wrong decision, and when he was pressed for time, he really shouldn't choose French food, or rather, he shouldn't eat and drink with Feng Weilin's dead face.

"Don't mind if I do it for you," Feng Weilin said, and without waiting for them to answer, he smiled straight at the waiter and said, "Panno, and then please give this young lady Du Benne." ”

Ji Huan glanced at him with a smile, "You don't plan to enjoy the aperitif all the way to the coffee, right?"

Feng Weilin smiled without the slightest sense of guilt: "I thought my intention had been expressed very clearly, Ji Shao, for Xiaosheng, don't feel too sorry for your wallet, and I'm sorry for her beautiful clothes." ”

"Hey, why are you involved with me again?" Yisheng asked with a smile, but he vaguely understood in his heart that Feng Weilin would do this all for himself.

He understands all the regrets in her heart, so he helps her so quietly.

"Yes, yes, it's my own desire to let my tongue go, and I generously admit it, okay?"

Feng Weilin pretended to be annoyed, glared at Yisheng, saw the girl covering her lips and smiling, she couldn't help but smile, but she felt slightly distressed for her in her heart, but love is a thing, once it is touched, it is not allowed to ask others whether it is worth it, all he can do is bless.

As he spoke, the waiter had already served the aperitif, and Feng Weilin slowly tasted it, and slowly ordered the main wine, the appetizer, the soup and the main course.

At this point, Ji Huan couldn't say anything more, and Feng Weilin specifically mentioned Yisheng again, he had not been able to satisfy her wish to eat Chinese food.

Thinking like this, she turned her eyes to look at her, the girl felt his gaze, turned her head, and winked at him, "Brother Ji Huan, my stomach has been dragged away by Du Benne, and now you want to pull it back, but it's too late." ”

As he spoke, he opened the menu in front of him with a smile.

Ji Huan looked at her delicate smile, and his heart softened for no reason, even if he was so busy preparing for the establishment of a new bank that he was exhausted, he still remembered that at this moment, she should be in an ancient castle in the Loire Valley.

Before leaving, he had contacted her mentor, and he knew that her return was supposed to be five days later.

When Yisheng finished ordering, he didn't look at the menu, and said directly to the waiter: "It's the same as this young lady." ”

The waiter went down, and he just wanted to ask her the reason for coming back early, but Feng Weilin had already taken the first step to speak, "How do you feel, this time the castle is exploring?"

Yisheng's interest was aroused, and she began to tell with great energy about her experiences these days, the gardens of Villandry, the water promenade in Chenonceau, the secret drawers of Bloiary and the room where the Duke of Guise had been stabbed.

He listened to her brow on her brow as she recounted the night of St. Bartholomew in Alexandre Dumas's Queen Margot, how Margot saved King Navarre, while the Duke of Guise was stabbed to death at the Château de Blois.

With such a childish look of joy, the corners of his lips couldn't help but pull out an upward arc.

It's just that if she likes it so much, why did she come back early? Could it be that someone bullied her, or was it the exclusion of her peers? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hold back a smile.

"You said so much, why haven't you talked about the famous 'Chambord'?" Feng Weilin asked with a smile, "Didn't the French always say that Louis XIV left the 'Palace of Versailles', and the great Napoleon created the 'Napoleonic Code' that will forever be recorded in history, and François I's gorgeous delusion was this 'Chambord Castle'?"

Yisheng tilted his head and thought about it, "Shampoo is a hunting castle, it doesn't feel like home, and it's not warm to live in it at all, but I like the double spiral staircase designed by Leonardo da Vinci." ”

Feng Weilin smiled in surprise, "You like that double spiral staircase - people who go up and down the stairs at the same time can see each other without meeting, and legend has it that the king of France specially asked Leonardo da Vinci to design it in order to avoid the queen and his mistress from meeting head-on." I thought you girls wouldn't have a good idea of it, if not hateful it. ”

Yisheng smiled, "You also said that it is a legend, since there is no way to find François I or Leonardo da Vinci to understand, it is all up to personal understanding, and some fragrant stories may be more reverie, but in my opinion, aside from the subtlety of architecture, two people go up and down the stairs together, and both sides can see each other from time to time but can't touch each other anyway, but it reminds me of a Chinese poem 'Lovesick and not blind date', which is the most helpless beauty in the world." ”

Ji Huan knew that in addition to advocating Yisheng to read Western books and learn Western studies, the Sheng family was not sloppy in the teaching of Chinese classical culture, so he was not surprised, but Feng Weilin was surprised and looked Yisheng up and down, "I really can't see that a young lady like you is not completely rich in West Africa." ”

Yisheng smiled, "When I was a child, Mr. Lin came to my home to give me and my sister a Chinese language class, and if I couldn't memorize the book, I had to use a ring ruler to hit the palms, and when I got older, my father gave me my mother's diary, which had a lot of poems and lyrics written on it, and I looked at it and gradually liked it." ”

"Is that poem also in your mother's diary - 'Lovesick and not blind date'?" Ji Huan asked, seeing Yisheng nodding, so he smiled, "When she wrote it down, she probably didn't expect that one day, this poem would be used by you on the stairs of a French castle." ”

Yisheng laughed too, and the joy in the laughter overflowed the room without concealment.

At that time, they were too young, and they didn't think too much in their pure minds.

So it wasn't until many, many years later, when they stood in front of the same double spiral staircase again, that they recalled that year, unexpectedly, the unintentional words of their youth - "lovesickness and not blind date", became a proverb.
