Shi Cheng took advantage of Ye Keke's time to go to the bathroom and took the initiative to settle the bill. Ye Keke said embarrassedly, "I invited you to this meal, you have helped me a few times today, look at you, why don't you say a word and settle the account again?" ”

"Checking out is inherently a man's business, and women can't be asked to do it. You can't let the beautiful woman check out. Shi Cheng looked at Ye Keke and said meaningfully.

After being full of wine and food, it was time to part ways, but Shi Cheng suddenly became cheeky and asked Ye Keke if he wanted to go to a newly opened bar nearby. In the middle of the night, a lonely man and a widow, Ye Keke should have refused this strange man's request, but he agreed by magic.

This time, the two of them tacitly didn't order wine, two glasses of soda, and the waiter who ordered next to them couldn't understand it, turned around and rolled his eyes, thinking, you two people, just pretend.

Ye Keke suddenly remembered something and asked Shi Cheng, "You said you went to Sydney this year, when did you go?" Did you go to another city? “

"In February, we went there just after the Spring Festival this year, and we were basically in Sydney. Oh yes, and I went to the Gold Coast and a small town next to it, called Bye---- Bye-bye---"

"Byron Bay!" Ye Keke said excitedly, "Do you remember what day you went to Byron Bay in February?" “

"Don't remember? What's wrong? Have you seen me in Byron Bay? Shi Cheng looked puzzled.

Ye Keke quickly took out his mobile phone and rummaged through the photo history, "Ah, I found it, this is it!" She clicked on the photo and put the phone screen in front of Shi Cheng's eyes, "Look, is this person you?" “

In the photo, Ye Keke is smiling happily in front of the white lighthouse in Byron Bay, and posing in a funny pose, which is very funny, the only discord is that a young man suddenly appeared in the background of her photo, with an indifferent expression. This photo was taken by her good friend Cong Rong. At that time, because he was in a hurry, he didn't make up the shot, and afterwards, every time Ye Keke looked at the photos, he would see a man with an indifferent face.

"So this person is you! I said how come the first time I saw you today, it felt familiar, it turned out that we once passed by in Byron Bay! Ye Keke pointed to the photo and said excitedly.

"It seems that we are really quite fateful! Today I finally made up for the regrets that passed by in February! Not bad! It seems that I have gained a lot from today's exhibition. Shi Cheng was a little excited as he spoke. He called the young lady who ordered again, and before he could open his mouth, a young lady with a Sichuan accent began to actively sell him a special rum.

"Sir, the best one we have to sell right now is this mixology, and the lady next to you will love it. And this wine is not easy to get drunk, so it is best to drink while chatting. The young lady glanced meaningfully at the time.

"Then let's serve 4 bottles first, and then order a fruit platter." Shi Cheng said after looking at Ye Keke.

After a while, the young lady put the wine and fruit plate in front of Shi Cheng and Ye Keke with a smile on her face. It's still a lonely man and a widow, it's still the same night, it's still sitting face to face, the difference is that this time both of them have less restraint just now in izakaya.

"Shicheng, where are you from? Listening to your accent, you shouldn't be a native of Shanghai. Ye Keke asked casually.

"That's right, my hometown is Anhui. I finished studying at Shanghai Jiaotong University, 10 years ago, there were not so many people in Shanghai, and the hukou was easier to get than now, so I stayed in Shanghai to work hard. Looking back at myself at that time now, I really don't know how thick the sky is, and I am stupid inside and out. It's just as good, brave to fight, fearless. Shi Cheng sighed.

Ye Keke looked at Shi Cheng with some admiration and said, "I feel that you have gone through vicissitudes." Ha ha. Then you must be a person with a story! ”

"I don't dare to go through the vicissitudes of life, but there is a point in the story, that is, I am afraid that you will be bored. A foreigner like me is nothing more than a story of how I worked hard in Shanghai when I was young, and how I later broke through my own efforts. Actually, it's all old-fashioned, and I'm embarrassed to mention it. Shi Cheng said lightly.

"Hey, 42 episodes of inspirational TV series, it's over with your sentence being an understatement? You're too modest! Then if you summarize your own history of struggle in one sentence, let's talk about your emotional history slowly. Ye Keke said as he looked at Shi Cheng and raised his eyebrows mischievously.

"My emotional experience is certainly not as rich as yours. When I was young, I was focused on my career, and I finally got a girlfriend, and I dumped me because I didn't have time or money. Later, I was promoted, my salary was raised, and my life was getting better and better day by day, and after she found out, she actually ran downstairs to my house and said that she wanted to get back together with me. It was also a coincidence that I was preparing to move. After she dumped me, I fantasized countless times about how I would show that bad breath in front of her in the future after I was promoted and rich. However, when she stood in front of me again, she leaked that flattering face, and I didn't even have the heart to take revenge. I just felt that she was very pathetic, and I was glad that I was not with her at that time. Later, I quietly moved and completely cut off contact with her. After Shi Cheng finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, put it down again, and then looked up at Ye Keke and said meaningfully, "Actually, she is quite beautiful, more beautiful than all the girlfriends I had later, but I don't think she is as beautiful as you." “

After listening to Shi Cheng's words, Ye Keke's face suddenly turned red, and she lowered her head embarrassedly. The wine swayed back and forth in the glass, but her mind was fixed on the sentence that Shi Cheng had just said, and it was unforgettable for a long time. At last she mustered up the courage to raise her head, and her eyes met the expectant and hot eyes of the time.

Looking at each other, Ye Keke couldn't bear it anymore this time, she felt that Shi Cheng was teasing her, but she didn't want to refuse, so she joked, "You're so bad, I let you tell a story, and you still joke with me." I don't think your girlfriend should be so good-looking, otherwise I guess you wouldn't have rejected someone at that time. ”

"She's not as pretty as you anyway." Shi Cheng did not respond to what Ye Keke said, but said it half-seriously and half-playfully.

"Well, actually, I also think I'm quite floating, you can see it. Haha" Ye Keke replied perfunctorily, but his face became redder and redder, thinking: Time! What are you going to do?

It was 11 p.m. Shi Cheng picked up the phone, and between the opening and closing, he had already aimed at the time, and said in his heart, oops, it's already so late. He put down his phone, looked at the empty wine glass, and raised his eyes to look at Ye Keke, looking thoughtful and thoughtful.

Ye Keke also glanced at the time, and then continued to turn his head back to the center of the stage on the side, hiding his blush and shyness. On stage, a young lady dressed in sexy black is singing the famous song from the stage play "Chicago": All that Jazz. Zeta Jones) plays a somewhat god-like role.

At the end of the song, Shi Cheng and Ye Keke spoke almost at the same time:

"I'll take you home." - Schedule

"It's not early, let's go." - Leaf cocoa.

The driver memorized his seat belt, clicked the "start" button, and the car began to drive slowly. Ye Keke and Shi Cheng sat on the left and right sides of the back seat of the car, respectively. The middle spot was vacated.

"Master Xiao Ji, please go to the address I sent to you in the text message first, let's send the lady next to me home first, and then we will drive to my house." Shi Cheng did not forget to remind Master Ji.

"Okay, Mr. Shi, the navigation is already set. It's to send the lady next to you back first, and then to your home. Rest assured! After Master Ji answered, he stopped making a noise and only concentrated on driving.

The car began to drive at a high speed on Highway 6, and the beautiful night view of Shanghai was slowly left behind, disappearing into the night little by little, but the car began to fill with a trace of ambiguous and strange atmosphere. The driver glanced in the rearview mirror and happened to see Ye Keke who was looking out the window in a daze. He thought to himself, this girl is very beautiful, I haven't seen it before, I guess it's Mr. Shi's new girlfriend, but it means that the two don't look like they're doing it.

Shi Cheng grabbed his mobile phone, rubbing it in his palm from time to time, but his eyes kept staring in the direction of the rearview mirror. Suddenly, his eyes met Ye Keke's eyes in the rearview mirror, and the two of them turned their heads out of the window at the same time in embarrassment like electric shocks.

Just 10 minutes later, the car drove into the main entrance of the "Mingqi Hotel" and the car stopped. Shi Cheng got out of the car one step ahead of Ye Keke, and then trotted to the other side of the car and opened the door for Ye Keke. The driver turned off the engine and waited in the car.

Ye Keke got out of the car, but Shi Cheng didn't mean to return to the car immediately, but closed the car door again, and then stood next to the car and said to Ye Keke, "I watched you walk in, I'll go back." When you get to the room, send me a WeChat message. Thank you for having dinner with me today, can I make another appointment with you next time? ”

"Hmm. See you next time! Ye Keke didn't run away from Shi Cheng's eyes this time, she said softly in the face of his hot gaze. At the same time, before she turned to leave, she left Shi Cheng with a shy smile.

Shi Cheng returned to the car and sat in the position that Ye Keke had done before leaving, and when he was wearing his seat belt, he seemed to smell the perfume on Ye Keke's body. The car started slowly again, and Shi Cheng's thoughts drifted farther and farther away. The driver did not dare to disturb him, and quickly turned off the radio in the car, and the car was quiet again.

"Ding", the car drove out for two minutes, Shicheng's mobile phone rang, and a WeChat message from Ye Keke appeared on Shicheng's mobile phone:

"Shicheng, I've arrived safely in the hotel room, it's a pleasure to meet you today!" - Leaf cocoa

"Well, I'm glad to have met you! Rest early! We'll be in touch tomorrow. "- Schedule

"Okay, good night." - Leaf cocoa

"Good night, Coco." - Schedule
