When Ming Dai woke up, she found herself lying on the armrest of the back seat, and the soft flesh on her cheeks was squeezed out of shape.

The hair was neatly draped over her shoulders, and it wasn't until she sat up that the strands slipped freely back to their proper volume.

Mingdai's first reaction was to touch her face for saliva, and as soon as her fingertips touched the corners of her mouth, she bumped into Twilight's sight head-on.

"Ahem." Ming Dai pursed the corners of her lips a little embarrassed, "Did I just fall asleep?"

Twilight smiled slightly, "Well, I slept soundly, so I couldn't bear to wake you up."

Ming Dai was a little weak-hearted, and she couldn't even remember how she slept through.

Whispered, "I'm sorry, I'm too tired."

Twilight sighed, "If you're really tired, you can go back and rest first, and this shop will come back another day."

Mingdai looked out the window and saw that the car had been parked in an open parking lot.

It was pitch black and quiet, with only a few sparse street lights, and it was impossible to tell where they were.

Mindai: "Have we arrived at our destination?"

Twilight nodded.

Mingdai: "Is it a long time?"

Twilight: "Soon, if you're tired, we'll go back first."

Ming Dai vetoed: "That's not good, it's all here!"

In the end, following Mingdai's meaning, I still set off to the restaurant.

Before getting out of the car, Ming Dai glanced at her phone and found that it was almost eight o'clock in the evening.

It was only six o'clock when they set off from the set, so it took two hours to drive? I'm afraid not, Ming Dai suspects that she has slept too long, and Twilight is too embarrassed to wake herself up.

Knocking on the door of her head in annoyance, Ming Dai pushed the door and got out of the car, and was hit in the face by the cold wind, and her whole face was as if she was immersed in a snowdrift, and she was unconscious in an instant.

Twilight, who had already circled to the car, said, "Is it cold? You can put a blanket over it."

Ming Dai was already shivering from the cold, she was really too lazy to care about the image, so she nodded quickly, opened the car door again, took off the small blanket and wrapped it around her body, it was really hot.

Rubbing her cold face, Mingdai looked at Twilight curiously, "Aren't you cold, little uncle?"

The down jacket worn by Ming Dai was about to be frozen stupid, and the cashmere coat worn by He Du looked cold and neat, not like it was stuffed with a lot of pieces.

Twilight explains, "I exercise all year round, so it's better to resist the cold."

Ming Dai's mind moved, and she remembered what Aunt Ling Xiu said, so she unconsciously asked, "Yes, I heard Aunt Ling Xiu say that you used to like extreme sports very much."

Twilight muttered for a moment, and nodded sincerely, "Well, it's probably a belated rebellious period, I like to pursue the excitement between life and death, and experience the thrill of adrenaline."

Ming Dai muttered, "I always feel that the words "rebellious period" are particularly incompatible with my little uncle."

Twilight glanced at her, "I'm mortal too."

Ming Dai was skeptical.

But I didn't dare to ask, so I set off with Twilight and walked in the direction of the restaurant.

Walking out of the open-air parking area, Ming Dai found that this was the lake, no wonder the wind was so cold, the damp and cold air was about to get into her bones.

"Is there a restaurant here?"

Ming Dai looked around, but didn't find a few figures.

And Twilight specifically pointed out to her:

"There."

Following the direction of her finger, Ming Dai was surprised to find that the restaurant she had spoken of was built on the lake.

The three-story wooden building with red tiles and cornices is illuminated by light strips, like a mythical glazed fairy palace, and the dark lake at night is also sparkling with broken gold.

The restaurant is led by a stone nine-curved bridge with railings and small floor lamps, which creates a wonderful atmosphere.

Mingdai couldn't help but scream.

The corners of Twilight's mouth raised slightly, "The scenery here is very good, there are different scenery in different seasons, but we won't eat here later."

Mingdai's eyes widened, "Huh?"

Unfortunately, her curiosity was aroused, but Twilight was reluctant to say anything.

Ming Dai had no choice but to suppress this curiosity, stepped on the nine-curved bridge from the lake, and walked briskly towards the restaurant.

When he was about to get to the door, Twilight pulled something out of his coat and handed it over.

Ming Dai took a look and found that it was a mask.

It dawned on her that she was so at ease that she would probably be recognized if she ignored it.

Thanks, taking the mask and covering half of her face, Mingdai walked into the restaurant with Twilight.

The manager received the news early and waited here.

Seeing Twilight, he smiled familiarly, "Mr. He."

Twilight asked, "Are you ready?"

"Yes." The kind-faced manager noticed Ming Dai and his smile deepened, "Don't worry, Mr. He, you will not be disappointed with your girlfriend." ap.

Ming Dai and Twilight were both stunned.

Ming Dai hurriedly waved her hand: "Oh no, I'm not a girlfriend, I misunderstood!"

Then he nodded to Twilight, "Well, this is one of my ...... Friends."

Ming Dai was stunned.

It stands to reason that Ming Dai should be regarded as Twilight's junior, after all, she is friends with Xia Ling, who is Twilight's niece.

But now it is explained as a friend......

It seems that the little uncle doesn't want to be misunderstood for his age.

- Mingdai, who automatically found the explanation, felt that she could understand Kazu's mentality very well, and nodded in agreement.

The restaurant manager apologized repeatedly, saying that he was embarrassed to misunderstand.

Twilight: "It's okay."

Finally, the manager led the two inside.

Mingdai and Twilight are a few steps behind, and they can talk without worrying about being heard.

So Twilight lowered her voice, "I'm sorry, I ...... just now."

Ming Dai hurriedly said, "I know, I know, it's troublesome to explain!"

Twilight: "...... Well, that's right."

Ming Dai obviously didn't take this matter to heart.

She wondered where she would go next, and what she meant by not eating here.

The answer was soon revealed.

The manager led the two of them through the long corridor hung with lanterns of flowers and birds, and around the bustling lobby to the back of the restaurant, where there was a covered bridge leading to the lake.

At the end of the covered bridge is a dark and secluded lake, and a canopy boat is docked near the water, with a bamboo lantern hanging on the bow, which illuminates a small square of the world, like a scene in a movie, full of poetry.

Mingdai, who was amazed, opened her eyes slightly, looking forward to it and excited.

The manager reminded the two to be careful.

And Twilight was already in a daze with Ming Dai, and stepped lightly onto the bow deck, and then turned to Ming Dai and stretched out his hand.

Mingdai quickly grabbed Twilight's forearm and cautiously poked her foot out.

At a distance of walking on the ground in front of Twilight's long legs, Ming Dai was really struggling.

Fortunately, there is a support from Twilight.

He didn't look like the kind of person who was covered in tendons, but he didn't expect his arm to be unexpectedly strong, and he could almost lift her whole person up by holding Ming Dai with one hand, but he crossed that distance in the blink of an eye.

This made Ming Dai can't help but recall the relaxed gesture of saving He Xiang from Twilight on the rooftop.
