They came to a very famous Japanese restaurant in the suburbs, in fact, this Japanese restaurant is next to the Huaishui villa area, and his location also determines his consumer group and consumption level.

Bai Hetaro once saw the introduction of this Japanese restaurant on the Internet, because it was so special that it did become popular on the Internet for a while, but because the consumption level was too high, she had never been here, and this was her first time. This Japanese restaurant is similar to the promotional photos on the Internet, and the decoration style is the same as on the Internet, so there is no fraud.

The interior of the restaurant is small, but the environment is very chic and elegant, and the interior is inspired by the characteristics of old Japanese architecture. The partition between the seats is separated by a screen, and the private rooms are designed with sliding doors and paper sliding doors with various flowers painted on them, which is a must-have geisha in a Japanese restaurant, and although I don't know if it's true, the makeup and dancing are very beautiful.

It is said that there is a small garden behind this Japanese restaurant, and there is a small pond in the middle of the courtyard, which is arranged with a small waterfall, and even a man-made earth mountain and a small stream, etc., and even better, there is a bamboo tube with water next to the pool, and there is even a transplanted cherry blossom tree, but due to the climate, the tree has not yet bloomed, and if it coincides with the flowering season, you may be able to enjoy the flowers while drinking while listening to the sound of the bamboo tube full of water and "popping". It does sound very interesting and even a little zen, and this exotic atmosphere with a sense of slowness is indeed very attractive to some people.

――Of course, there are also people who come to eat Japanese food.

For example, White Crane Taro and Zhuang Yan.

It's just past dinner, but even so, maybe it's because the restaurant is too famous, or maybe it's because the atmosphere of this restaurant is really nice - after all, there are so few restaurants like this that are full of customers but not noisy, so even after the meal, there are still a lot of people in this Japanese restaurant, and they wait for a few minutes, but there are still no seats.

Bai Crane taro is a very particular person, she has to buy YSL lip gloss when she is the most depressed, because she thinks there is a color number that she likes very much, which suits her very well, and she will not be on the street after buying it, she will buy it. But her attention is not included in the aspect of eating, for her, it doesn't matter if she eats Japanese food today or not, what matters is who she eats with, or rather, who invites her to eat.

What's more, the feeling of "waiting" will make her feel a sense of anxiety.

She frowned, turned to Zhuang Yan and said, "...... It's full, so why don't we leave? ”

She thought for a moment and whispered, "I'll treat you to French cuisine." ”

Zhuang Yan glanced at Bai Hetaro for a long time: "Really?" So generous? ”

Bai Hetaro paused, and continued to whisper: "Baguettes are also algorithmic cooking......

Zhuang Yan couldn't help but laugh.

Bai Hetaro felt a little embarrassed, but not embarrassed.

At this time, a waiter in a kimono walked over, Zhuang Yan nodded, and asked, "How long will I wait?" ”

The waiter whispered, "I'm sorry, there are too many people, there are a lot of reservations in advance today, if you have to wait, it will take at least thirty minutes." ”

"Zhuang Yan......?" White crane taro asked.

Zhuang Yan nodded, took out a card from her bag, and handed it to the waiter.

It was a black card with something written on it in Japanese, which the white crane taro did not recognize.

The waiter looked at it, handed it back to Zhuang Yan with both hands, bowed to Zhuang Yan and Bai Hetaro, and bent down to make a "please" gesture towards them.

Zhuang Yan and Bai Hetaro followed her forward.

What Bai Hetaro didn't expect was that the waiter who said that there was no seat just now turned around and took them around a few wooden corridors to the door of a small side room, she pushed open the paper door painted with flowers, and the inside was completely exposed - because this side room is very small, but if you push open the door and sit and look out, you can see the courtyard outside, just like the promotional photos on the Internet, there is indeed a small artificial pool here, and you can also see the bamboo tube used to draw water, and even sometimes you can hear a "pop", It was only to Hakuru that she felt a little regretful that she didn't see the cherry blossom tree—although she wasn't quite sure if the trees in the courtyard were cherry blossom trees, and naturally, she didn't see the blossoming cherry blossom trees either. However, this small room still feels very chic, and it is very much in line with the Japanese garden in the heart of the white crane taro.

After pushing open the paper door, what greeted me was a set of small black low tables, which looked ordinary, no different from the low tables I had seen on TV before, the kind of low tables in Japan, Zhuang Yan stood in front of the door, took off her high heels, walked in and sat cross-legged, Bai Hetaro took off her shoes like her, and sat opposite her. The waiter in the kimono immediately set the dishes for the two of them. Then ask them to order.

Zhuang Yan didn't look at the menu, but handed the menu to Bai Heyu: "You can order it." ”

Bai Hetaro paused, realizing that this was Zhuang Yan saying that she wanted to invite herself to dinner, no, in fact, Zhuang Yan didn't say that, but the meaning was about the same, but she always felt a weirdness, not that it was weird to invite her to dinner, but the fact that they were eating out alone made her feel a little weird.

Seeing that Bai Hetaro seemed to be confused again, Zhuang Yan raised her eyebrows: "What's wrong?" You don't know Chinese characters? It's not Japanese, it's kanji, right? ”

Bai Hetaro hurriedly shook his head, "I'm sorry, I'm distracted, it's nothing ......"

She lowered her head, feeling the heat start to rush up her neck, and she quickly opened the menu.

She doesn't really like to eat Japanese food, because she doesn't like to eat cold and raw food, she prefers to nibble on baguettes.

But if she didn't eat this after eating Japanese food, she felt bored again, so she ordered a little casually and handed the menu to Zhuang Yan.

"I'm all right...... You order. ”

Zhuang Yan looked at it and ordered two casually.

After the waiter took the menu and left, Zhuang Yan suddenly asked, "Do you like tea bowl steaming?" ”

Bai Hetaro was stunned: "Huh? ”

"You ordered three."

White Crane Taro: "......"

Bai Crane taro is a little embarrassed, she doesn't know what to say, can she just say I'm sorry Actually, I don't like to eat Japanese food, and I ordered three tea bowls steamed because it was like steamed eggs, and I felt kind?

I still like to eat steamed egg white.

But about not liking to eat Japanese food, Bai Hetaro thinks it's better not to say it now, because even he will feel that since he doesn't like it, why don't he say it at home, and it would be hypocritical to say it now.

What's more, Zhuang Yan seems to want to eat.

It turned out that the inference of the white crane taro was correct, and the last one who came up, as they said before, all the sashimi and so on came up.

Bai Hetaro was stunned: "So much." ”

But Zhuang Yan just didn't answer, and Bai Hetaro looked up at her and found that she was a little distracted.

Zhuang Yan looked at a table of food and was distracted.

This distraction lasted only a few seconds, and soon, Zhuang Yan came back to her senses.

"Eat." She said.

Bai Hetaro ate a little casually, watching Zhuang Yan move the chopsticks, and when she had finished eating the second cup of tea and steaming, she found that Zhuang Yan was still eating that little, and she felt that the atmosphere was really silent.

She didn't know if she should say something to break the deadlock, but the air was dull and terrible.

She thought, I should always learn to take the first step.

So she spoke: "You've been here before?" ”

Zhuang Yan responded.

"Oh," Bai Crane nodded, "I see you take out that card, and there will be a place." ”

Zhuang Yan glanced at her and said in a flat tone: "Generally, in this kind of place, even if it is full, there will be one or two separate rooms like this for emergencies, and that card is just a voucher." ”

After Zhuang Yan finished speaking, her eyes turned to the outside.

Bai Hetaro's gaze fell on the table.

She suddenly found that Zhuang Yan ordered a table, but she didn't actually eat much.

Maybe Zhuang Yan doesn't like to eat Japanese food like herself.

Just, why?

She doesn't like to eat, why did she order so much, why did she come to eat Japanese food?

She followed Zhuang Yan's gaze, and the man-made waterfall in the small pool in the courtyard was flowing with water, and the bamboo tube was full of water, making a "bang" sound.

It turned out that it was not a "pop" sound.

Bai Hetaro raised his head, and with that sound, Zhuang Yan's eyes seemed to flicker, her eyes were a little restrained, and she seemed to be a little gentle, but more importantly, confused.

At that moment, a feeling that he was unfamiliar with occupied his heart.

Bai Hetaro felt that his breath was shorting for a moment.

She subconsciously felt that she didn't like Zhuang Yan with such a gaze.

Zhuang Yan is not like this.

But what Zhuang Yan is like, she can't say it herself.

It's just that she doesn't like this Zhuang Yan, she feels a little strange to herself, a little ...... Weakness.

Will Zhuang Yan show weakness?

In Bai Hetaro's heart, Zhuang Yan seems to be high and strong, she sometimes spits bad words, but she is not malicious.

Bai Hetaro thought she was a workaholic at first, but she found that Zhuang Yan's attitude towards work was not so positive.

Zhuang Yan is like a ...... Like what? White crane taro can't find a good analogy.

It's just that she feels that Zhuang Yan seems to have something attracting her.

Attracted to what to do, Bai Hetaro didn't have a clue.

It's just that she doesn't want to see Zhuang Yan's eyes now, so she decided to change the topic.

But she is obviously not a person with a good interpersonal skill, she just tries to distract Zhuang Yan with some boring questions.

Bai Hetaro pointed to the small waterfall and asked, "Is that circulating water?" ”

Zhuang Yan came back to her senses, looked at it, and said, "It should be." ”

"Do you think that waiter is Japanese?"

"I don't know."

"Do you think those dancing in the front hall are real Japanese geisha?"

“……”

"Have you ever been to Japan?"

“……”

"You ......"

"That's enough." Zhuang Yan rubbed her eyebrows, it's too abnormal, today's white crane taro is too abnormal, did she have a car accident and broke her head.

"Shut up and eat, if you don't finish this today, you don't have to go home." She placed the third cup of steamed tea in front of Bai Crane Taro.

Listening to Zhuang Yan's vicious tone, Bai Hetaro picked up the spoon, but his heart was relaxed and happy.
