After taking over the "Fifth Season Bar" and CC's "Empty Town" music restaurant, I have made a slight transformation on the basis of the previous one, and whether to continue the business model that CC has always retained has become a difficult problem that I have been thinking about these days.

So, I went to CC, who was going on a trip to Nepal, this afternoon to hear her opinion, and we made an appointment to meet at the restaurant that is now mine.

After CC sat down, he smiled and asked me, "Zhaoyang, I have always invited you to drink beer before, this time you should invite me, right?" ”

I beckoned the waiter to bring CC a cup of draft beer, and she drank half a glass in one go, as cheerful as before, and it seemed that the relationship with Robben did not leave much shadow on her, but I couldn't tell whether this was the appearance or the truth.

When she had finished a full glass of draught beer, I took another lady's cigarette from her cigarette case, lit it for her, and said, "There's something I'd like to discuss with you." ”

"You say."

"Mainly about the future operation of this restaurant, I would like to ask your opinion on whether we should continue to keep the current model of allowing customers to pay according to their own will."

CC thought for a moment and asked, "The restaurant's current business model should conflict with your future development plan, right?" ”

"Yes, after all, the existing business model is impossible to implement on a large scale, and in my development plan, music restaurants will be set up in large tourist cities."

"I know that you especially want to keep the trust between people that this restaurant has always insisted on, and I am also worried that once it changes, I will not be able to accept it, in fact, since the decision to transfer the restaurant to you, I don't want to ask anymore, you make your own decision, I support you no matter what!"

CC's answer made me even more reluctant to change the quality of this restaurant that I have always insisted on, and I have become inclined to continue operating in the current model.

After a short silence, I asked CC, "When are you going to leave for Nepal?" ”

"Three days later."

"Don't you wait for Mi Cai to return home, there are only five days left."

"I don't know if she came back early, the ticket has been booked, anyway, this time, she won't go to the United States, and when I come back from Nepal, I will see it again."

I nodded, then asked the waitress to bring us two more draft beers, and she was about to leave, and I wanted to talk to her a little longer.

CC leaned in front of me and asked with a smile, "Zhaoyang, when I come back from Nepal, will you and Mi'er give me any good news?" ”

"Do you want to use our marriage news as good news for you?"

"Of course!"

Looking at CC's happy eyebrows, I couldn't say the sentimentality in my heart, God knows, it was the marriage news that day, or the bad news after our love ended, but I still nodded to her, I really don't want to let the matter between myself and Mi Cai, let her who is still suffering in emotional sorrow worry, so for the time being, give her a promise that may not be fulfilled.

After the two of them drank another glass of draft beer, CC asked me, "Zhaoyang, did Robben and Wei Manwen go to Xitang?" ”

"Well, Robben is going to devote himself to creation and participate in the original music audition held by a satellite TV station in a month, and Wei Manwen may find a job related to education in Suzhou after he participates in the audition."

"That's good, right, I heard that this original music audition has revised the rules of participation, and creators can only provide songs for creation, and invite other professional singers or friends in the industry to help sing?"

"Well, after all, not every creator has a good voice and can perfectly interpret the songs they compose, I think this is a kind of progress, more humane, and more entertaining!"

CC seemed to be joking, but also said seriously: "Do you think Robben will invite me to help sing?" ”

"Probably not, and are you willing to torture yourself so repeatedly? After all, you're now."

CC interrupted me and replied, "No one knows the soul of his songs better than me, and no one can interpret every song he writes more perfectly than me." ”

I don't deny what CC is saying now, but I really don't want to see her pay for Robben so endlessly, because the pain behind the pay, she can only grit her teeth silently and bear it, and finally said to her: "Why are you doing this? ”

CC looked at me for a long time before replying: "Some women are born to live for giving, whether they have love or not is not what they care about the most, you also have such women around you, but you haven't paid attention." ”

I subconsciously asked, "Are you talking about Le Yao?" ”

CC shook his head and said, "Not necessarily! ”

I asked, "Who's that?" ”

CC refused to say anything more, snuffed out the unfinished lady's cigarette in his hand in the ashtray, raised his hand and looked at his watch, and then said goodbye to me, saying that there were some personal matters to deal with, while I stared at her departing back, feeling sorry for her as a dear friend, and wondering who she was referring to, and there were only a few women with whom I had a relationship.

CC opened the door of the restaurant, and before he was about to walk out, he turned back to me and said, "Zhaoyang, be with Mi Cai and wait for your wedding!" ”

I was stunned for a moment before nodding to her, and after leaving a blessed smile, she walked into the small alley in front of the restaurant with a lonely back in the afterglow of dusk, and completely disappeared from my sight

Time quickly advanced forward five days, today is the day of Mi Cai's return to China, and it is also the third day of the official summer, but my mood is tormented in ice and fire, I am extremely eager to see Mi Cai after a long absence, but I don't want to see her fall into the pain of the choice I gave her, to be precise, it is the choice that Wei Ran gave her, but it doesn't matter, because no matter who gives her the choice, she will always be miserable because of the choice.

I came to Pudong Airport in Shanghai with complicated feelings, and then waited for Mi Cai at the passenger exit, but I was surprised to find that Wei Ran had arrived before me, and he also found me at the same time, so he walked to my side.

I didn't have much to say to him, so there were no words, and after a moment of silence, he finally asked, "Have you thought about it?" ”

"There's nothing to think about, I've already told you, I don't have a choice in this matter, Mi Cai's attitude is the most important thing, and I respect any choice she makes, so you should go and talk to her instead of focusing on me like a fly all the time!"

Wei Ran clenched her fist so much that it creaked, but I ignored it and turned to look at the exit, because Mi Cai's flight had arrived on time, and I would be able to see her soon.

Two minutes later, I saw her pushing a luggage cart, she was wearing sunglasses and a long white dress, she was so beautiful that she immediately attracted a lot of attention, wondering if it was a certain star, and even took out her mobile phone and froze her appearance in the camera.

Wei Ran and I walked towards her at the same time, Wei Ran first opened her arms, she let go of the luggage cart with a happy face, accepted Wei Ran's welcome hug, and said in a very pleasant tone: "I didn't expect you to come, I remember you told me that you would go to Shenzhen today to attend the opening ceremony of the ZH branch." ”

"There is nothing more important than welcoming you back to China, but you are really picky, and it collides with the opening day of the ZH branch!"

"I just want to go back home sooner." Mi Cai said and looked at me who had been hanging aside.

I smiled at her, she was about to leave Wei Ran's hug, but Wei Ran suddenly hugged her tightly, although she was still wearing sunglasses, she could see that her expression was full of surprise, she pushed Wei Ran, and asked, "Abner, what's wrong with you?" ”

Wei Ran let go of Mi Cai with a lonely expression, then smiled again, and said, "Hold it tightly and see if you have lost weight." ”

Mi Cai smiled and said, "I should have lost a little weight." With that, he came to my side and took off his sunglasses and clasped his hands together with mine.

Wei Ran forced a smile again, and said, "Betsy, I have prepared a drinking party for you in Suzhou, you can go with me later." ”

Mi Cai looked embarrassed and said, "I'm a little tired, and I'm going to take a good rest tonight." ”

Wei Ran said: "I invited celebrities from the Suzhou business community to this reception, as well as the leaders of the Commerce Bureau and the board of directors of Zhuomei, how could you be missing the protagonist!" ”

Mi Cai looked at me again, as if asking for my opinion.

Of course, I didn't want her to go to Weiran's cocktail party, but I couldn't let her refute the face of these business celebrities and leaders of the Commerce Bureau, so I still forced a smile and said: "Go, they are all friends and leaders in a circle, and if you don't look up and look down, it's not good not to go." ”

Mi Cai finally nodded to Weiran, and then turned to me and said, "Zhaoyang, you can go with me at the evening party." ”

I smiled and shook my head: "Just go for you." ”

Mi Cai was a little disappointed, but still responded to me with a smile, and whispered in my ear: "I know you don't like that kind of occasion, I won't force you, but when you go home, remember to make dinner and eat it together when I come back from the drinking party, okay?" ”

"Of course there is no problem!"

Mi Cai grabbed my arm and walked out of the airport, forgetting even my own luggage, I turned around to help her with her luggage, only to find that Wei Ran, who had been looking lonely, had already pushed her luggage cart behind us.

A group of three people came to the parking lot outside the airport, Mi Cai's CC that has been used by me and Wei Ran's Ferrari 458 are only three cars apart, Wei Ran put Mi Cai's luggage into his car, and Mi Cai has already sat in his car, press the window to tell sù Wei Ran, and then call after arriving in Suzhou, and then beckoned me to hurry up and get in the car, completely ignoring Wei Ran's feelings, maybe in her heart, just as Wei Ran has completely let go of her feelings, but the fact is that she is emotional, after all, simple, so I misjudged the emotion that Wei Ran was unwilling to give up and persistent towards her at this moment.
