Chapter Seventy-One: Drinking Wine Makes Sorrow Even More Sorrowful
Time went back a little, when Lin Xi and the others were eating lunch. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn another apartment building in Seoul, a pair of beautiful and beautiful sisters have just woken up from sleep.
At noon, Jessica, who had just gotten up not long ago, looked at the figure in front of her who was in a trance, and sighed lightly. Then he quickly put away the expression on his face, showed a smile, walked out of the door, and sat down next to Krystal, "Xiujing, do you want to have lunch later?"
"Lunch, just go to a random restaurant to eat something, and go back to the company to practice in the afternoon, nothing to pay attention to." On the sofa, Krystal, who had also just gotten up not long ago, was asked by Jessica, and his eyes that were originally looking at the TV series in front of him were also retracted, but his mind was still a little erratic to deal with his own Ernie question.
So much so that Jessica, who heard this answer, also flashed a trace of depression, but she didn't dare to show it, so she had to bury her eyes deep and answer herself, "Why don't we go to the Four Seasons Hotel for a buffet." It's been a long time since I've been up and sitting. And the dessert on top is delicious, let's go and savor it. ”
"Four Seasons?" said Krystal, who was not very energetic, suddenly after hearing Jessica's suggestion. Those shining eyes lit up instantly, and after a few glances of radiance. But it slowly dimmed, but he didn't refuse, and nodded lightly, "Well, then go to what Ernie said." ”
So, after deciding on the destination for lunch. The two beauties also got up and returned to the room one after another, changed into clothes and tidied up their appearance, and then walked out of the house together. Hop into Jessica's car and head towards the Four Seasons Hotel.
On the way, Jessica, who was driving the car, looked at the sister sitting next to her. She didn't want the atmosphere to be so gloomy, so she took the lead in provoking the topic again, "By the way, Xiujing, did you have fun with your friends at last night's birthday party?"
Birthday...... Party...... Krystal……
These words are very well explained. Yesterday was Krystal's birthday. Meanwhile, according to Jessica, last night's time and joy was spent with some of her friends. Because even Jessica, who is her own sister, only gave a gift to her sister at dinner, and left her time to herself, so she doesn't know how her sister Krystal was doing last night.
"It's a party, it's fun, but a girl's birthday is the equivalent of a year older. So after being happy, it always feels a little weird. Krystal, who was asked by Jessica, was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it. He tilted his head, looked at the scenery outside the car through the window next to him, and gave his own answer softly.
"Ah, I'm going to be in such a mood. I'm the same, but it's good to be happy, age or something, like Xiujing, your current age, don't worry about it. Even if you want to worry, it should be someone like Ernie and me. Krystal replied, and her reaction. Jessica, who had been watching her, shook her head slightly, but there was a smile on her face, comforting her sister.
Then, Jessica, who seemed to have the information and answers she wanted, opened the topic again. Slowly moved on to the return of Krystal's new song, as well as some follow-up activities. However, Jessica, who is very aware of her sister's embarrassing position in that company at this time because of her departure, only focuses on the issue of songs and performances. For some resource commercial performances, and even variety shows, they all avoid talking about it.
After all, I was already a little inhuman because of myself, and now I still come to tear open this wound and talk about it. So how could Jessica be qualified to be Krystal's pro-Ernie and the person she admired. Not being able to help Jessica was enough to make Jessica very helpless, so if it weren't for the fact that last night's situation made it difficult for her, I guess she wouldn't have used this topic to attract Krystal's attention right now.
After 20 minutes, the car slowly heard the bottom of the parking lot, and then took the elevator and went straight to the restaurant floor. Eventually, led by the waiter, Jessica and Krystal sat down in the seats they had booked before they arrived. Window by the window, card seat. Quietly looking at the scenery of Seoul through the floor-to-ceiling glass next to it is one of the highlights of this restaurant.
After sitting in the position, it is natural to order. Later, after ordering what she wanted to eat, Jessica picked up the bag next to her and said to Krystal, "I'll go to the bathroom first." With that, after seeing Krystal's nod, he got up and left his seat.
Krystal watched Jessica leave, and his eyes turned to the window next to him again, looking at this somewhat familiar but unfamiliar landscape. Between the eyebrows, there is melancholy.
On the other side, Jessica, who had left her seat, did not walk in the direction of the bathroom, but turned around and walked to a safe exit of the stairs at the edge of a hallway.
After coming here, Jessica took out her mobile phone as soon as she stood still, and dialed it without hesitation after turning out a number.
……
Front, because of Lin Jun's words just now, Lin Xi was bored. After grabbing a bottle of red wine from home, I walked out of the house and walked to the bar below. Sitting at the bar with the beautiful hostess, listening to quiet jazz music and drinking a new cocktail that the other woman had recently adjusted.
"Well, it tastes good. After watching Lin Xi take a sip of wine, the beautiful proprietress also looked at him with some excitement and asked.
"Well, your new model tastes pretty good. Originally, I thought that after entering the mouth, your clear wine would bring me a lighter taste. Unexpectedly, on the contrary, the very sharp and esoteric taste instantly detonated my mouth, and there was a tingling sensation behind it that made me feel very good. Then because of this crispy feeling, I was looking forward to the next sharp taste of the drink. ”
Lin Xi, who was questioned, looked down at the wine in front of him that was placed in the classic high-heeled oblique cocktail glass. On that clear and bright surface, there is a quiet place of an iconic olive, like a small note in the cold and cold, which makes people quiet at the same time, but also bring a trace of excitement.
It is precisely because of this cocktail that Lin Xi, who originally planned to take the drink down and 'dispel his sorrows' with the beautiful proprietress . I woke up almost all of a sudden, but in this sobriety, that melancholy became very small. It seems that they have been dispelled by the cocktail in front of them.
Lin Xi, who felt this, immediately laughed. Raise the high-heeled wine glass and look at the clear cold snap lying quietly in it. Perhaps, it is precisely because of such a miraculous 'curative' or taste that the cocktail has become a miracle that has become an incomparably popular global sensation even though it originated relatively late.
"I've had cocktails before, but the taste doesn't make me as happy as this time. It's over, hostess, I think I'm in love with this cocktail you've debugged, and if you're tired of it, don't blame me, you asked me to try it yourself. Continuing to take a sip of the strange and exciting cocktail in his hand, Lin Xi looked at the beautiful proprietress in the bar very jokingly and said.
And the beautiful proprietress in front of her doesn't know if she is used to Lin Xi's jokes. After hearing his words, he responded very quickly, "Don't worry, this wine is available in limited quantities, 10 glasses a day, while supplies last." ”
Facing the words of the beautiful proprietress in front of him, Lin Xi obviously glanced at her in surprise, followed by a startle, and finally laughed. The beautiful proprietress also smiled very charmingly, but she continued to play with the bartending bottle in her hand, although there were no fancy moves, but there was also a unique style on those small hands.
At the same time, it was also at this time that the mobile phone that had been put aside by Lin Xi after coming in and sitting down suddenly rang. However, when the body of this ringtone floated out of the mobile phone, it was Lin Xi, who made the original body stiffen suddenly, suddenly collapsed, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
Then, Lin Xi, who saw the caller ID on the screen sideways, muttered a little puzzled, "Jessica?"
On the other side, the beautiful proprietress who also saw this was also stunned, but she reacted quickly and said with a smile, "Why are you stunned, hurry up and answer the phone." ”
Lin Xi, who was reminded, picked up the phone, gently slid it and placed it next to his ear, "Hey." ”
However, along with this greeting, Jessica's angry voice said, "Ah, did you have a crazy time at Taeyeon's show yesterday, or did you really forget that yesterday was Sujing's birthday?" Even if you can't be a couple, you should always have birthday greetings and gifts between friends. Haven't you sorted out your relationship with each other?"
This sentence of anger with self-deprecation suddenly rose in Lin Xi's heart, and then hit his heart heavily. Let his eyes open again and again, and the pupils in his eyes also shrank and shrank.
Then, looking up at the digital clock in the corner of the bar, looking at today's date, looking at the number 25, the mouth finally opened, and his face was full of shock and consternation.
This expression was seen by no one except for the beautiful proprietress standing opposite Lin Xi. Therefore, Jessica, who was waiting for Lin Xi's answer, naturally couldn't pass through the space to see his reaction, so after hearing her speak, the guy on the other end of the phone was still indifferent, or there was no reaction. There was originally just a little anger in my heart, but I suddenly rushed straight up.
"Ah, you dumb, speak, speak, what the hell do you think. Even if you and Xiujing can't be a couple, but on the birthday of your friends, do you have to go back to avoid suspicion? Could it be that your girlfriend's jealousy has reached such a powerful level? Dafa, I have been a member of her group for so many years, I don't think her character is such a person. From yesterday to the side of the car just now, it has been seen that Krystal has been looking forward to this guy's gift or greeting on her birthday, but Jessica, who has not waited, is finally really angry at this time.
She knew that her sister had indeed come out. Those thoughts that shouldn't have are almost gone. However, the relationship between the two is still a relationship of friends. Therefore, expecting gifts and greetings from friends is an idea that most people should have on their birthdays. Krystal is no exception, let alone the man he once loved so much.
However, the deeper the expectation, the deeper the disappointment.
So Jessica, who had just gotten the information she wanted from Krystal's face, now called Lin Xi directly. Asked what the hell this bastard thought.
Sentence by sentence, sentence by sentence. Let Lin Xi's eyebrows frown again and again, look down at the glass of wine that had just taken away many of his worries, and sighed lightly, I really want to drink it all in one gulp.
"Ah, something went wrong yesterday, I forgot. I'm sorry, where is Xiujing now, I'll see if I give her a gift first. In the end, Lin Xi, who really didn't want to use any excuse to escape this question, simply responded, with a low and bitter face.
On the side of the stairwell of the hotel's restaurant, Jessica, who had already stored a lot of words, but after hearing the tone and mood of Lin Xi's words, her mouth froze, her expression was stunned, and she forgot all the words that should be said later.
Finally, after a few more minutes, Jessica finally sat down across from Krystal again, looking at her sister and smiling softly.
