Chen Ruoya, who wanted to drink and celebrate, recommended a restaurant called Historia Food and Bar (roughly translated as a history book restaurant) and ordered a cup of Long Island Iced Tea. In principle, Yang Yiming usually doesn't drink, but in order to meet the occasion, he also ordered a bottle of Tiger beer and sat down at the seat by the window indoors.

The history book restaurant is almost at the end of the street, there are fewer pedestrians, and the two bars facing each other at the end of the street do not choose the vulgar method of playing music loudly to attract business like other houses on the street, and the soft jazz music can only be heard when you walk into the bar. The price paid for elegance was that both shops had little business, much worse than the ones dancing and dancing around the door.

But fortunately, the environment is quiet, and it is suitable for chatting.

"I've heard that Long Island Iced Tea is a strong cocktail, right? Are you sure you can handle it? Yang Yiming kindly reminded. He took a sip of the Tiger beer handed by the waiter, the taste of industrial beer was very light, not choking, and there was some hop sweetness after bitterness, but it only flashed on the tip of his tongue. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and took another sip, probably because he hadn't eaten after a strenuous exercise, so he actually felt a little dizzy after taking a sip, and then couldn't help coughing a few times.

"Obviously you can't deal with it yourself! Hahaha. Chen Ruoyan looked at Yang Yiming's appearance and laughed. In order to show her drinking power, she laughed and took a sip of Long Island iced tea in her cup.

"Awesome!" Yang Yiming gave her a thumbs up.

"Small!" Although Chen Ruoya said that, her face quickly flushed with the effect of alcohol, and the flush appeared more delicious on her white porcelain-like skin under the dim light, like a flower blooming. She knows the power of Long Island Iced Tea, a cocktail that originated in Long Island, New York, USA, and is made of vodka, rum, gin, and tequila with ice, white mint, and lemon juice. Iced tea only describes the color of black tea when he is made, but if he is deceived by his girly and sweet appearance, it can only be exchanged for a drunken fate. Chen Ruoya knew that she didn't take a second sip and put down the wine glass obediently.

"I've heard that Long Island Iced Tea is very strong, so you better drink less." Yang Yiming did not persuade him to drink, but kindly reminded him.

"Eh, I'm curious if you don't usually drink, how do you know which one is stronger and which one is easy to get drunk?"

"Although I don't drink alcohol basically, I've heard the introduction and know a little bit about it." Yang Yiming thought about it for a while, and then said, "After all, in the circle of athletes." There are always a lot more players who like to have a few drinks and can drink a few drinks than there are only a lot more than people like me. ”

"Haha, I know, it must have been your girlfriend who told you, right!"

"This..."

"Well, I guessed it right. Hahaha. ”

"She's a good drinker. But she seems to drink more red wine and occasionally try cocktails. Yang Yiming immediately had an idea and picked up the topic he didn't know how to answer just now. He also recalled the first time he went to Meritis's house for a Halloween party, which happened to have her special fruity cocktail. "But she rarely drinks beer."

As he spoke, Yang Yiming took a second sip of Tiger beer - maybe Meritis didn't like to try beer for a reason. The beer is light and bitter, and it really doesn't have any flavor. There are many people who say that drinking cold beer can relieve the heat, but in an equatorial city like Jakarta, although the beer is cold, after only two sips, Yang Yiming felt that his whole body was dissipated, his forehead was sweaty, and he did not feel the effect of relieving the heat at all.

Maybe it's just a marketing strategy for beer merchants, Yang Yiming thought silently.

"Look you're sweating a little, star. You're really drunk, haha, you don't seem to be lying to me. ”

"Why am I lying to you?"

"Well, yes, of course you won't lie to me - if you lie to me, you probably won't sit here with me at all, just refuse."

"yes." Yang Yiming thought about the logic behind this sentence carefully, and it seemed to make sense. It's also amazing that a fan I met by chance in the United States actually met again in a city half a world away, and was able to sit down at this time and talk about a topic that has nothing to do with basketball in a tavern in a foreign land...

"So, since we didn't refuse my invitation, should we celebrate?" Chen Ruoyan raised the crimson Long Island Iced Tea in her hand, interrupting Yang Yiming's thoughts.

"Ah, I forgot about the celebration."

"Come on! Congratulations on your victory! ”

"Thank you!"

The mouth of the Tiger beer bottle in Yang Yiming's hand gently slammed against the cup of Long Island Iced Tea, making a crisp sound, as if to complement the soft jazz music in the room.

"I'll drink half of it, feel free to do so!" Chen Ruoyan boldly proposed.

"It's so powerful-" Yang Yiming watched Chen Ruoya raise his neck, swallowed half a cup of Long Island Iced Tea into his stomach in two sips, like a hero in a costume film wiping the foam on his lips with the back of his hand, and he was not to be outdone, and poured in half a bottle of Tiger beer, and swallowed it in his mouth for half a second, before finally swallowing it.

"Alright, alright. That's it, Dr. Young. Drink for fun, but I really shouldn't have advised you to drink alcohol, it would disrupt your eating plan. ”

"Ahh You know that, too. ”

"yes, I know a lot about you." Chen Ruoyan raised her neck higher, more proud than when she drank half a cup of Long Island iced tea just now, "I know that you are a very self-disciplined athlete, so you can achieve your current achievements." I shouldn't have disrupted your plans, although this night is really worth celebrating! ”

"Well, it's really worth celebrating." Yang Yiming remembered that the night after the Rockets won the NBA championship, every teammate and staff member was drunk with just champagne, but he relied on carbonated drinks to pass the night, and he didn't drink a drop of alcohol. (Fortunately, when everyone was drunk and celebrating, no one cared if he had slipped through the net) but tonight he was able to take the initiative to raise his glass, there must be something special?

"So you should still continue to stick to your good habits." Chen Ruoyan snatched the half bottle of beer that Yang Yiming left on the table, held a glass in each hand, and said, "Now the two glasses are mine!" ”

The tone is unmistakable.

"What about me?" This sudden attack caught Yang Yiming off guard.

"Waiter, please have a bottle of soda. Soda, is it okay, a hit? ”

"Hmm." He suddenly realized that this was the first time that Chen Ruoya had called him by his name this night.

He was actually a little touched.

There seems to be something very different about this call.

The waiter put the open soda and the glass with a slice of lemon and ice cubes in front of Yang Yiming, only to hear Chen Ruoyan call softly at the same time, "While you are awake, tell me about the night you won the championship." ”

"That last verse—"
