"Be sure to have cake on your birthday. ”

When Lin Manshu passed by a cake shop, this sentence suddenly rang in her ears, so she walked in and bought a cake. After coming out of the cake shop, she continued to walk aimlessly, and somehow, she walked to the hot pot restaurant with wind chimes.

remembered that the last time I ate hot pot, I was spared by a drunk policeman, and I didn't eat it. So he walked in.

"Welcome. ”

When Lin Manshu opened the door and walked in, the waiter said politely, coincidentally, this waitress was the waiter who received Lin Manshu last time. Later, Lin Manshu learned that her name was Sun Yutong.

"Here, please. ”

Because the last time they met, Lin Manshu left a deep impression on Sun Yutong, so she still remembered that Lin Manshu liked a quiet and certain position by the window.

Lin Manshu didn't say anything, walked to the window and sat down, and put the cake in her hand on the table.

"Are you going to celebrate a friend's birthday today?" Sun Yutong accosted Lin Manshu after seeing the cake.

"Give yourself a life. Lin Manshu replied absent-mindedly.

"Ah, today is your birthday, will you spend it with your friends, how many sets of cutlery do you want?" Sun Yutong asked again.

"Alone. Lin Manshu said, and then stopped talking.

Xiao Mubai had dinner alone after work, and when he came out of the restaurant, he saw a few people gathered in front of the hot pot restaurant opposite. Several men surrounded a woman, and it was easy to tell from the way the men were dressed that they were gangsters;

The policeman's sense of mission and justice drove Xiao Mubai to the hot pot restaurant.

"Get out of the way. Lin Manshu looked at the person standing in front of her with drunken eyes and said.

"We have good intentions, seeing that you are drunk, we want to send you home, and now the world is so sinister, it is very dangerous to walk alone. A man said, smiling wickedly.

"No need. Although Lin Manshu was drunk, her cold temperament was not annihilated by alcohol, and she planned to leave after speaking.

One of the thugs saw that Lin Manshu was leaving, so he wanted to reach out and grab her.

"People say they don't have to. Xiao Mubai arrived at the right time and supported the swaying Lin Manshu.

"Who are you? The little gangster said disdainfully after seeing Xiao Mubai.

Xiao Mubai didn't want to talk nonsense with them, so he directly took out his police officer card and showed it. Sure enough, those little thugs were suppressed. They winked at each other and ran away as soon as they smoked.

"Hey~ The young people now are really ......" After the gangsters fled, Xiao Mubai shook his head and sighed.

"Are you okay?" Then he asked Lin Manshu with concern, and after seeing her face clearly, he said in surprise: "Wow! ”

Originally, Xiao Mubai and Lin Manshu should have met once, but because he was drunk on the day they met, he had no impression of Lin Manshu. Lin Manshu was molested by Xiao Mubai that day, so naturally she had a very bad image of him, but because she was drunk today, she didn't remember Xiao Mubai.

"Who are you?" asked Lin Manshu with drunken eyes looking at Xiao Mubai.

"I, I am...... Good. Xiao Mubai replied that because he didn't know that there would be an intersection in the future, he said it very casually.

"I'm a bad person, so you have to ignore me. Lin Manshu said, shaking off Xiao Mubai who was holding her.

Xiao Mubai heard a trace of sadness in her tone, and this sentence didn't seem to be as simple as drunken words.

After shaking off Xiao Mubai, Lin Manshu took a few steps forward, but because she drank too much, she couldn't stand steadily, stumbled a few times and almost fell. Xiao Mubai hurriedly stepped forward to support her.

"Why do you drink so much? Xiao Mubai said.

"I don't drink, I don't drink. Lin Manshu denied.

Xiao Mubai smiled helplessly and said, "You still don't drink a drop of wine, so are you so drunk from drinking water?"

Who knew that Lin Manshu actually laughed out loud after hearing his words, and said: "Are you a big fool? How can you get drunk when you drink water, of course you drink alcohol, haha, I don't even know this." ”

“……”

Xiao Mubai himself laughed at himself a little, he actually talked to a drunk person, and was also ridiculed by this drunk person for being a big fool!

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, she's just drunk. Xiao Mubai persuaded himself.

The next day, Lin Manshu woke up in a strange room, and was shocked, so she quickly got up from the bed. There was no one else in this room but her, and it was generally clean and very little decorated. Her bag and coat were placed on the bedside table, and her shoes were casually placed on the floor.

Everything around her somewhat reminded her of when she was drunk, and she remembered the man who had brought her here.

"How could it be him?" Lin Manshu frowned, it seemed that her impression of Xiao Mubai was still the same as the bad impression she had when they first met.

After getting out of bed, Lin Manshu put on her coat, picked up her bag, and walked to the living room, where there was no one here. It seems that the owner is not at home at this time. Seeing the furnishings in the living room, she seemed to remember something from last night.

"Wait a minute, slow down......"

Xiao Mubai brought Lin Manshu home last night, and when he changed his shoes, he asked Lin Manshu to wait for a while, but she was not obedient at all and walked in alone.

"You're welcome, just sit down, I'm familiar here. Lin Manshu said with a smile, sitting on the sofa casually.

"You're really cheeky, what a familiarity, that guy must be laughing at you in his heart. Thinking of what she had said, Lin Manshu despised herself.

Suddenly, some not-so-good images flashed through Lim Man-sook's mind. It was the picture of her pushing Xiao Mubai down on the sofa, not only that, but she also fell on Xiao Mubai with that push.

"He, Lin Manshu, what the hell have you done?" Lin Manshu is now super helpless to herself.

She didn't remember much about what happened after that, she only remembered that Xiao Mubai carried her back to the room, and then, it was blank.

"Do we ...... Oh my God, isn't it!" Lin Manshu said in surprise.

But no matter what she thought, she couldn't remember what happened later, and only Xiao Mubai knew if something happened between her and Xiao Mubai. But she is as arrogant as Lin Manshu She will not stay and wait for Xiao Mubai and ask him what happened last night.

So she acted as if nothing had happened, and quickly slipped away while Xiao Mubai was not at home.

Xiao Mubai went out to buy breakfast and came back, but the house was still very quiet. He thought that Lin Manshu hadn't woken up yet, so he walked to the door and knocked on the door. But no one agreed for a long time, and after opening the door, I found that Lin Manshu was gone.

"Wow, this ruthless woman left without even saying thank you. ”

"Bang, happy birthday!"

Lin Manshu returned home, and as soon as she opened the door, a streamer floated in front of her, followed by a man's voice. The other party was a man about the same age as Lin Manshu, his clothes and hairstyle were quite trendy, he was holding a hand-sprayed ribbon in his hand, and he looked at Lin Manshu with a smile.

"Birthday was yesterday. Lin Manshu said weakly, and walked in by herself after changing her shoes.

Seeing this, Xiao Hanyu also followed, and didn't forget to say: "Of course I know it's yesterday, but I waited here last night for a day and you didn't come back, why did you go?"

"Got drunk last night. Lin Manshu explained briefly and continued to walk upstairs.

"Are you drinking again? The doctor said you can't drink anymore. Xiao Hanyu said, originally wanted to follow Lin Manshu into the room, but she was locked out of the door.

"Hey, did you hear that, you can't drink anymore. Xiao Hanyu raised his voice again and said.

"I don't want to drink it either, but ......," Lin Manshu said leisurely.

When she entered the room, the heavy curtains made the room as dark as night, but she didn't turn on the light. Then with the only glimmer of light she walked to the bedside, and her eyes fell on the picture frame on the bedside table. There is a man and a woman above, the woman is Lin Manshu, the man is an unfamiliar face that has never appeared, but it seems that the man is not very old.

"I'm Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, and you're still the same age. Lin Manshu looked at the person in the photo and said.

The dim light falls on the red wine bottles on the table in the lounge, which sets off the color even more. There is a wide variety of red wines on display, and they seem to be very expensive. Lin Manshu sat alone in the lounge, and her back was a little sad in this atmosphere.

"Ou Yo, I also got a lounge, people who don't know still think you're a drunkard?"

"Look at the atmosphere made by you, it's pitch black, are you a ghost? can't see the light? You have to make it like this. As he spoke, he turned on the light, and the room lit up.

"Didn't you say I was an alcoholic?" said Lin Manshu casually, picking up the wine glass in his hand and preparing to drink.

Xiao Hanyu snatched the wine glass from her hand one step ahead of her, put a bottle of drink in front of her, and said, "Even if you are really a drunkard, don't drink it, drink this." ”

Lin Manshu didn't refute, opened the drink and drank it. Quiet music reverberates in the lounge, setting the mood.

"Haven't you forgotten? Xiao Hanyu asked.

"Didn't think about forgetting. Lin Manshu replied.

Xiao Hanyu sighed, looked at Lin Manshu with worried eyes, and said, "It's been many years." ”

"It's been seven years. Lin Manshu said.

"Seven years is a long time. Xiao Hanyu sighed, and asked, "Is it because of that incident that you chose to come to this city?"

"Well, I don't know. Lin Manshu said vaguely.

Perhaps because of the unhappy past mentioned, the two fell into silence, silently drinking what was in their hands, and their movements and expressions were very synchronized.

After a while, Lin Manshu asked, "What about you, why are you here?"

Lin Manshu's question seemed to pick out Xiao Hanyu's enthusiasm, he snapped his fingers in the air with a smile, and said, "I also want to talk to you about this." I'm going to open a detective agency here. You're the lawyer, I'm the detective, I'm in charge of investigating and tracking down the problem, and you're in charge of the follow-up legal issues. The two of us will work together to make a lot of money. How about it? Do you want to cooperate?" he said and Lin Manshu blinked.

Compared with his excitement, Lin Manshu was so cold that she couldn't do it, and said very indifferently: "Don't." With that, he got up and left the lounge.

"You can't do this, my equipment has arrived, what should I do?" said Xiao Hanyu.

"Where does it come from, where does it go? Lin Manshu said.

"Alas~ It's really an unkind woman, we have a friendship with each other, so we can't be accommodating. Xiao Hanyu said.

As soon as his words fell, a pillow was thrown from the living room, followed by Lin Manshu's voice, "It's noisy, shut up." ”
