"Fool, did you win yesterday's game?"
"Of course, I didn't tell you, I won't lose until you come to see my citywide finals. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Ye Hai, I want to ask you for one thing."
"What's the matter, I'm so polite."
"There's a dinner tonight, I don't want to go, but I can't push it, so I want you to go with me."
“...”
"Please."
"Okay, see you at the school gate in the evening."
"Jingle bell~~" At the end of the last class, the bell for school rang on time, Ye Hai quickly packed his schoolbag, walked out of the classroom, and met Sun Bin, who was waiting for Ye Hai to go home together.
"Monkey, I have something to do today, and I'm not going back." Ye Hai put his arm around Sun Bin's shoulders and said.
"What are you doing, if you don't go home after school, do you make an appointment with other girls, I will report to Ji Yanran for beating you." Sun Bin said with a smile.
Ye Hai had an expression of being defeated by you: "You are really gossipy, tonight's host is Ji Yanran, I will accompany Yanran to the dinner." ”
"Oh, that's it." After Sun Bin listened, he suddenly said cheaply, "Remember to protect your boy body at night, otherwise you won't be listless on the field in tomorrow's game." ”
"Fuck off!" Just walked to the school gate, Ye Hai kicked Sun Bin away, Sun Bin hurriedly dodged Ye Hai's angry kick, waved his hand at Ye Hai and ran away.
With the exclamations of the surrounding students, a Porsche 911 drove to the door of Zijin Middle School and slowly stopped in front of Ye Hai, who was waiting for Ji Yanran. When Ye Hai was puzzled, the window of the Porsche rolled down, revealing Ji Yanran's delicate face, "Fool, what are you looking at, get in the car quickly." ”
After all, it was the first time for Ye Hai to ride in such a high-end sports car, so he opened the door a little nervously and sat down. When getting into the car, Ye Hai obviously felt that the students around him were pointing at him and the sports car, which made Ye Hai feel a little unhappy.
"What's the matter, fool." Ji Yanran seemed to notice that Ye Hai had a look of displeasure on his face, and quickly explained thoughtfully, "The family of the person who invited the guest today and my father are business partners, so I can't be rude, and I don't want to be so grand." ”
How could Ye Hai be really angry with Ji Yanran, when Ji Yanran gently said to Ye Hai, "Fool, smile", he squeezed out an ugly smile and made Ji Yanran laugh, and in Ji Yanran's laughter, Ye Hai couldn't help laughing. A small embarrassment vanished in the laughter.
The dinner venue in the southern district arrived quickly amid the roar of 911, except for the last time he went to Ji Yanran's house to attend a party, Ye Hai came to such a high-end restaurant for the first time. The waiter at the door kindly led Ye Hai and Ji Yanran to the designated position, and a handsome-looking young man with glasses was already sitting there waiting.
The young man seemed to be a little surprised by Ye Hai's arrival, but in a short time, he regained the calm on his face, and beckoned Ye Hai and Ji Yanran to take a seat, Ji Yanran first said to the young man: "I'm sorry, I happened to be shopping with my boyfriend today, so I came over together." After speaking, he introduced: "This is my boyfriend, Ye Hai." ”
The young man smiled at Ji Yanran very cultured and said, "It's okay. Then he turned his head and smiled at Ye Hai and said, "Hello classmate Ye, my name is Fan Chengzhen, my father Fan Zhixin and Yanran's father are good friends and business partners. ”
"Yanran? This guy actually called her Yanran when Ji Yanran said I was her boyfriend? Ye Hai's heart was filled with a trace of unhappiness, this is the second time today. But out of politeness and not wanting Ji Yanran's face to be ugly, Ye Hai reluctantly smiled at the young man named Fan Chengzhen in response.
After Fan Chengzhen finished speaking, he immediately brought the topic back to Ji Yanran and said: "Yanran, why didn't you say goodbye at the last dinner, we obviously chatted very happily, and my father also told you that I would send you home after dinner." ”
"Boom." Ye Hai drank a whole glass of ice water that the waiter had just brought out in one go.
Ji Yanran glanced at Ye Hai with a little nervousness, and said to Fan Chengzhen: "I had a little headache that day, so I went home early, and I didn't have time to say goodbye to Uncle Fan, I'm really sorry, I hope you have time to apologize to Uncle Fan on my behalf." ”
"It's okay, my father and your father are old friends, how can you be angry about this little thing." Fan Chengzhen smiled at Ji Yanran, and then said, "You're hungry, let's order." After saying that, he beckoned to the waiter who was waiting on the side.
"Ye Hai, I'm sorry, I'll explain it to you later." Ji Yanran took the opportunity to whisper in Ye Hai's ear.
Ye Hai opened the menu expressionlessly, and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, this is a black shop, looking at the price list on the menu, the cheapest food also starts at four figures. was hesitating whether to slaughter the young man in front of him, when he heard Fan Chengzhen's voice: "Yanran, don't you like to eat foie gras, the French fried foie gras with fresh scallops here tastes very good, it is the signature dish here, you might as well give it a try." ”
Ji Yanran turned her head to Ye Hai and asked, "Ye Hai, what are you eating?" ”
Ye Hai closed the menu and said coldly: "I want a bowl of Yangchun noodles." Ji Yanran smiled and gently pushed Ye Hai and said, "Well, Yangchun noodles are good, but we are eating French food today, so let's do it, I'll order it for you." After that, he ordered two steaks.
Fan Chengzhen's face was not in the slightest, and after the waiter ordered his main course, he ordered some appetizers and desserts for the three of them, as well as a bottle of red wine from a winery in the Burgundy region.
Pleasant music wafts through the restaurant, and the wide seating space, good service, and even the delicate utensils neatly arranged on the tables show the restaurant's high-end specifications. Ye Hai touched his nose, but felt that sitting in this environment for an extra minute was a kind of torment.
It didn't take long for the waiter to deliver today's dinner one after another, Fan Chengzhen kept smiling and leading up the topic to chat with Ji Yanran, but Ji Yanran just smiled and listened politely, and occasionally took the initiative to bring the topic to Ye Hai, hoping to let Ye Hai join in, but Ye Hai seemed to be deaf to the chat between the two, just eating the food in front of him by himself, and occasionally drinking a sip of red wine in a cup. However, only Ye Hai himself knew in his heart that what he ate in his mouth tasted the same as chewing wax, and the red wine he drank in his mouth was green and sour.
Finally, the difficult dinner was about to end, and after settling the bill, Fan Chengzhen surprisingly did not continue to pester Ji Yanran, but said goodbye to Ye Hai and Ji Yanran with a smile, and left by himself.
Ji Yanran looked at Ye Hai's bitter face that had been bored all night, couldn't help but hang her hands on Ye Hai's neck, and after making a trademark grimace, she smiled and said to Ye Hai: "Fool, Fan Chengzhen really wants to pursue me, I have clearly rejected him, but he still insists on wanting to be friends with me." Because of my dad's business dealings with his dad, I couldn't turn down his invitation as a friend, so I moved out of your real boyfriend. Don't be angry, just smile. ”
Ye Hai looked at Ji Yanran's beautiful face with a smile, but his eyes revealed worry and fear, and he couldn't help but feel a little unbearable, pinched Ji Yanran's pretty face and said, "Don't worry, I'm not angry with you." But if you come to this kind of occasion in the future, you have to tell me in advance so that I can be mentally prepared. "Yes!" Ji Yanran finally showed a comfortable smile.
"Oops, you're pinching someone's face wide!"
"Spare your life, spare your life, don't dare next time!"
Ye Hai stood downstairs at his house and looked at the direction of 911's departure, reminiscing about the kiss Ji Yanran gave when they were separated just now, this was the second formal kiss between the two, but it did not make Ye Hai feel cordial and naturally close the distance between each other, on the contrary, Ye Hai felt for the first time this night that there was an invisible barrier between himself and Ji Yanran.
