1658 Engagement Invitation
"Hey, how do you know? I thought it was a secret, and I wondered what I was going to tell you. Jay was completely surprised, and he was still thinking about how to start and how to explain the ins and outs of the story, so that things don't get too abrupt and spoil the surprise.
Logan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe his ears, looked at Lu Ke and said, "Honestly, you're a prophet, right?" Or maybe some wizard? Otherwise, how can you be unpredictable? It's really horrible, you see, goosebumps are up! Anyway, you're certainly not a normal human! ”
Jay also looked at Lu Ke incredulously, "How do you know?" ”
In fact, Lu Ke himself was a little surprised, he really guessed correctly, because he just made a simple guess according to the existing clues, there is no logic and no law at all, and as a result, the blind cat ran into a dead mouse, and he couldn't help laughing, "You and Emily?" Wow, when I was in college before, I still couldn't see it, didn't you deal with her very well? Those who see it from afar will take a detour. ”
So, it's called ...... Rejoicing in the enemy? But Lu Ke still didn't answer "how did he know".
"Remember last year? No, it must have been the year before last, in the offseason of your rookie season, Emily once came to a press conference in place of you, because you had a severe cold and fever? Lu Ke threw out the topic, and Jay was stunned.
At that time, Emily mentioned in passing that she was planning to move to the West Coast, didn't she have a job in New York? The willingness to move to California was clearly a big decision. After all, the best place for our journalism majors to work is in New York. After that, you've also mentioned her a few times inadvertently once in a while, nothing special, but it's like...... Well, it's as if she's a part of your life. ”
“…… That's all? Logan couldn't believe his ears, these details were nothing at all, but Lu Ke was able to connect them together, "Bambi, to be honest, is your head circuit different from ordinary people?" ”
In the face of Logan's complaints, Lu Ke looked calm, "Don't you know? It's called genius. ”
Logan suddenly had a constipated expression on his face.
Jay could only shake his head in amazement, and then noticed Lu Ke's inquiring gaze, as if asking: Is that so? Jay scratched his head again and nodded in affirmation, "...... Yes. We've been dating for almost two years. In Logan's exclamation, Jay was also full of disbelief, "How the hell do you know?" Just those little details? It's incredible! Goosebumps are up! ”
The same question, because I was too surprised, kept repeating it, like a ghost hitting a wall.
Lu Ke didn't plan to continue pestering, "Are you sure you still have to waste time on these useless issues?" You asked Logan and Logan to show up tonight, apparently not to announce that you and Emily are dating, right? Moreover, Emily has not shown up until now, and it is clear that you still need our help, and if you continue to delay, Emily will appear. ”
"Ahh Ahh Jay slapped his head repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, I hope you can help, and in your witness, I ......" Without continuing to speak, Jay took out a dark red velvet box from his pocket and placed it on the table.
"God!" Logan almost screamed, but he kept his emotions under control and swallowed his voice, but his eyes were still round.
Jay nodded in affirmation, "I want to propose, in your presence." Actually, I originally wanted to invite her family to attend with my family, but it would be too grand, and, with our salary, it seemed a bit too wasteful, and the formal meeting ceremony should be left for the future wedding; Later, I thought it would be great to be able to invite you to testify. ”
Although Lu Ke faintly guessed that when he really found out that Jay was about to propose, it was still inevitable that they were only twenty-four years old, and Jay was actually ready to get married? "But why don't you have the same world? Also made a special trip to find us two light bulbs to mix? Especially this guy from Logan, you know, he's the surprise buster. ”
"Hey! Bambi! I'm a party mood maker, okay? Logan protested.
Jay scratched his head and ignored Logan, "I know, but I think it's a bit too bland and boring, I hope to be able to propose in front of an authority and show my sincerity......"
"You mean, like a pastor or a priest?" Lu Ke was a little surprised that if the marriage was completed, it was completed in the presence of a priest or a city hall official; Does engagement also need this formality?
Jay immediately nodded in affirmation, "That's it!" I want you to be Witnesses! Aside from our families, you're the closest to an authority figure, and I was thinking of finding a colleague in the company, but I don't want my work and private life to be involved...... So I thought of you. ”
"I know you're right, but why do you feel upset? I always feel like I'm picking the rest. Logan was straight to the point.
Jay also tried to explain, but Lu Ke waved his hand, "Don't pay attention to him, no matter what, he can say something." Before Emily comes, you say what we need to do, right? ”
"No, nothing, you just need to be witnesses." Jay waved his hand repeatedly, "It's already very good that you're willing to agree to help." ”
In the past, during the university period, they were equal to each other, and they spoke and asked casually; But I'm not sure if it's because of the nervousness or something else, but Jay can't help but be polite. However, this is also human nature, they are busy with their own work, and there is less and less time to sit down and meet face-to-face like today, and it is inevitable that they will still be rusty. As Jay said, Lu Ke and Logan are willing to agree to help, which is already very rare.
Logan was a solid-eyed person and said directly, "You mean, we're like those friends in Hollywood movies, just cheering and moving, right?" ”
described it so vividly, and immediately became happy, and Lu Ke also laughed, "Actor, it's your turn to play well tonight." ”
"Play what?" As he spoke, a voice came from behind, and under the guidance of Jean-Pierre, tonight's heroine appeared.
Logan faces Emily head-on, seeing the real person, but still can't quite match the name, just thinking about the memory.
Jay, who usually eats by mouth, was also a little flustered, and he didn't know how to explain it in the face of Emily, but in the end, Lu Ke stepped forward to solve the siege, "Play the pistachio function." After graduation, there are fewer and fewer opportunities to see each other, and Logan is still trying to remember what you look like, worried that the scene might be embarrassing. ”
Lu Ke's words were very natural, and Emily didn't notice anything unusual at all, "Ha, it's normal." When I was in school, I didn't like the NCAA athletes because they always used women as trophies; Again, they didn't like me because I was a nerd. So, we don't have any intersection, and it's normal that we don't remember me. ”
Tonight, Emily is wearing an off-white floral dress, her capable and handsome short hair shows a unique aura, and she can feel the confidence exuded from the inside out with every move.
Jay stood up and pulled out a chair for Emily, Emily took off her coat and sat down, "For tonight's party, Jay has been preparing for a long time, and has been choosing a restaurant since two weeks ago, how about it, do you like it?" ”
Lu Ke and Logan exchanged glances: it turned out that they were smoke bombs!
"Yes, of course I do!" "But my only concern is that the portions of French cuisine can be difficult for professional players. Then Logan noticed Lu Ke's gaze: Obviously, the protagonists tonight are not them, so Jay chose the French restaurant, otherwise he would choose a buffet such as twenty-nine dollars to eat all-you-can-eat, Logan quickly changed his gaze, "But we can't eat indiscriminately when we leave the team base, obviously the French restaurant is also more suitable, and it is easy to detect if there is something we can't eat." It's a good thing for drug testing. ”
This...... Is!
Sure enough, Logan is not suitable for "acting", and there are loopholes all over his body, so his words are simply awkward to the extreme: Who would bring up an athlete's drug test during a meal?
Jay is no longer in love.
Lu Ke can only go out, "The season is coming to an end, we are all nervous, obviously, Logan is fortunate not to mention our tactical manual now, we don't want to leak the team's tactical secrets, right?" A little quip, though still a little blunt, finally obscured the situation.
Emily looked at Lu Ke, "How is it, how is the team's preparation now?" ”
"Ha, now that we have private time, let's put aside the topic of work for the time being, otherwise this dinner will be a disaster." Lu Ke said in a hurry that if he really started discussing the topic of work, Jay might be about to cry without tears.
Logan nodded repeatedly, "I can testify!" You definitely don't want to have a tactical meeting with Bambi, otherwise it's going to turn into a serious discussion and you don't even know what you're eating, haha. "There's nothing wrong with the words, but what the hell is going on with Logan's pompous hand dancing, it's really ...... I can't bear to look at it directly.
Lu Ke threw a respectful expression at Jay: Good luck!
Jay is now crying without tears, but fortunately, he knows Logan well enough, so he has been prepared for a long time, and the marriage proposal is about to be staged, so as not to continue to worry about it if it ends early.
The aperitif, which had been ordered, was the first to appear, and the sherry in front of Emily was unusually inserted with a straw, and then a sparkling diamond ring hung from the straw, which was gently colliding with the rim of the glass, shimmering in the dim light.
Then, Emily saw it at a glance, and with a puzzled look, she asked the waiter, "Is this glass of sherry delivered to the wrong table?" ”
