Chapter 107: Memories of Xiao Xiao and Zhang Jingjing
"Until then, I always thought you were a boyish girl, and I would never look at you more than anything in the crowd, but that time at the bar you made me know another you, a girl with a unique charm. Maybe from that time on, I have unconsciously started to want to pay more attention to you. Xiao Xiao recalled the past, that year's nearly pale summer, fortunately with Zhang Jingjing's touch of color, made him feel less powerless.
When Zhang Jingjing heard what Xiao Xiao said, he couldn't help but feel that that summer was like a direct joke between God and Xiao Xiao, a short but beautiful joke.
Xiao Xiao didn't rush to work at the newspaper during the summer vacation after graduating from college, Xiao Xiao, who had just returned from college, thought that she was about to gradually disappear into Lin Weilan's world, and her heart was inevitably empty.
It's rare to have time, Xiao Xiao simply found a few old friends from the past to go out to eat and drink. And the Knight Bar is a frequent place for Zhang Zidan, one of Xiao Xiao's high school classmates.
It also happened that day, Zhang Jingjing's father and mother went to the wedding anniversary, and there was no one to take care of them in the bar, so Zhang Jingjing went over to help, and Zhang Jingjing usually went over.
Xiao Xiao, Zhang Zidan and several other old classmates were still unsatisfied after eating lobster and drinking beer, so they decided to move on to the next game.
Several people sat in the booths, gathered around and playing a drinking table game.
"Writer Xiao, you know that the owner of this bar has a daughter, who usually comes to the store occasionally to help, and she mixes a must. I came in just now and saw that she happened to be there today, but she was the person~" Zhang Zishan looked at Xiao Xiao with a wicked smile.
"What's wrong with this man?" Xiao Xiao asked.
"It's this person with a strange temper, and a few of us here asked her for contact information, but none of them succeeded. You're here for the first time today, why don't you try it? Zhang Ziyi glanced at several other people,
"Hey, there's still a woman you Young Master Zhang can't handle? Say how to play! Xiao Xiao asked disappreciatively.
"Playing a game, whoever loses and who drinks the most goes to her and asks for a phone, how about it?" Zhang Zishan said.
"Yes, I raise my hands in favor, in the past, little girls asked Xiao Shuai for a phone, and today I want to see how Xiao Shuai Ge asked a girl for a phone." Xu Yifan, who was traveling with him, hurriedly responded.
"You are talking as if I am going to lose, come on, whoever is afraid is afraid." Xiao Xiao looked at the two and said.
As a result, after a round of games, except for Xu Yifan, who drank 2 glasses of wine, the rest were drunk by Xiao Xiao.
"Come on, handsome guy Xiao, the guy is at the bar over there, the one with short hair and a black low-necked sleeveless T-shirt." Zhang Zi pointed in the direction of the bar.
Xiao Xiao looked in the direction of Zhang Zi's single finger, and was startled if she didn't know it. It's just that that person is really Zhang Jingjing? Although the appearance is very similar, the skillful bartending action is completely indistinguishable from Zhang Jingjing himself.
"What's the owner's last name? Did you know? Xiao Xiao wanted to confirm whether that person was Zhang Jingjing.
"Boss? If I'm not mistaken, it seems to be surnamed Zhang! Zhang Zishan said.
"Okay, look at me. If I want to get to her phone and invite her to have two drinks with us, I'm going to come here for a drink in the next 1 month, and you have to be on call, and you pay for it! How is it? Xiao Xiao already had this mission imperative in her heart.
"Okay, so what if you don't arrive?" In Xu Yifan's opinion, that girl is not an ordinary girl.
"If you don't arrive, I'll invite you to drink for 2 months." After Xiao Xiao finished speaking, he picked up his mobile phone and walked to the bar in a dashing manner.
"Please give me a dry martini!" Xiao Xiao walked over to Zhang Jingjing and knocked on the bar table and said.
Zhang Jingjing was paying attention to the cocktail in his hand at this time, and suddenly heard this voice a little familiar, and looked up at the other party. "Senior?" Zhang Jingjing looked at Xiao Xiao in surprise, remembering that the senior was the kind of sunny boy with a little gentle temperament, how could he come back to the bar.
"What? Is it so incredible that I'm here? Xiao Xiao smiled and looked at Zhang Jingjing and asked.
"Cut, buddy, what did you just say you wanted? Dry Martini yes? Zhang Jingjing put away his surprised eyes.
"That's right! Dry Martini! Xiao Xiao knew that although this dry martini was not complicated to mix, it still needed a certain level to really bring out the pure taste of the dry martini.
Zhang Jingjing didn't speak, for a bartending veteran. She understood that Xiao Xiao deliberately chose this wine to try her own level. She was serene, concentrating on the glass in her hand, her slender fingers holding the silver spoon in a skillful gesture and stirring the ice cubes in the glass quickly, without making the slightest sound. In a moment, a glass of colorless spirits was placed in front of Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao looked at Zhang Jingjing at the bartending, and was a little distracted. This is still the Zhang Jingjing I know, and she looks so attractive at this time.
"Please!" Zhang Jingjing has always been very confident in his work.
"Master Zhang, if I think it's good, can you leave your phone number for me, I'll often come over to you for two drinks in the future." Xiao Xiao picked up the wine glass and sniffed it lightly, then raised his eyes to look at Zhang Jingjing.
"Senior, did you make a bet with your friend?" Zhang Jingjing slightly hooked the corners of his mouth and mocked.
"Hehe~ You said yes. It's just a phone call, and besides, we are also a school, and you are still Lin Weilan's roommate. Let's not see each other like this! Xiao Xiao smiled flatteringly.
"We're not familiar enough to call each other, senior!" Zhang Jingjing thought to himself, and he wanted to make Lao Tzu's phone number your bet.
"That's it, Master Zhang. I just told them that as long as you give me your phone number and have a drink with us, we will come to you every day for the next month. Xiao Xiao said the bet just now.
"Look at this bar, does it look like the three of you are missing?" Zhang Jingjing's house is a bar in Houhai, Beijing, with a good location, many key activities in normal times, and good wine.
"Zhang Jingjing, then give me face for Lin Weilan's sake?" Xiao Xiao didn't expect this Zhang Jingjing to not throw himself face at all.
"I've got this cup, your friend is in a hurry." Zhang Jingjing had a gloating expression on his face.
"Okay, Zhang Jingjing. I see you, you just mean to embarrass me, right? Good! Xiao Xiao glanced at Zhang Jingjing, picked up the wine glass, drank it all, and then turned around and returned to his booth.
Zhang Jingjing looked at Xiao Xiao's "helpless" and "sad" back, and there was a wave of sympathy in his heart.
"How! Is the phone number coming? Zhang Zidan's pair of Danfeng eyes looked at Xiao Xiao with half-squinted eyes.
"Looking at his dejected appearance, do you still need to ask? This eldest lady's phone is so good to want? Let's eat the closed door! Xu Yifan said with a smile.
"Is this 302 dormitory poisonous? Rejected by two women. Xiao Xiao has begun to doubt that her personality charm is really so bad!
"Hey, hey~ she's coming." Zhang Zishan saw Zhang Jingjing walking towards him with a glass of wine.
"Xiao Xiao, is this your friend? Sorry, I was busy just now. Now come and toast everyone, this is my phone, everyone will book a card seat in the future, call me, I will arrange. Zhang Jingjing raised his glass and drank the cocktail in the glass, and then handed the phone number he had written to the three people.
"You drink first, I'm going to get busy." Zhang Jingjing's series of actions in one go really shocked Xiao Xiao.
At the end, the call was coming, and the wine was also accompanied, so in order to fulfill Xiao Xiao's promise to Zhang Jingjing, Xiao Xiao took three friends and two friends to the knight's bar for a drink in the next month. And Zhang Jingjing, who didn't often go to bars, would go to bars every night because of Xiao Xiao's arrival. It wasn't until the beginning of the junior year that Zhang Jingjing disappeared into the bar of the knight's bar, and after a summer of frolicking, Xiao Xiao finally saw a lot from the haze of Lin Weilan's gains and losses, but at that time, Xiao Xiao always thought that it was because of the company of his brothers, but he ignored the importance of Zhang Jingjing for a period of time.
"So, what do you mean by coming to me now?" After Zhang Jingjing recalled the memory that was no longer clear, he looked at Xiao Xiao coldly and asked.
"I just want to tell you that in the past, I was unwilling to Lin Weilan in addition to liking, because I gave so much to her that I fascinated my eyes, and when Lu Xusheng came back, when I saw Lin Weilan standing next to Lu Xusheng, I actually hoped that she could really be happy, and I hoped that they could be reconciled. When I decided to let go of Lin Weilan completely, the fog in my heart dissipated, and it turned out that you already had a place in my heart. Xiao Xiao held Zhang Jingjing's hand and looked at each other tenderly.
"Xiao Xiao, I won't be a substitute for anyone. What you're doing now makes me think you're just trying to heal me. Zhang Jingjing didn't believe that Xiao Xiao liked Lin Weilan for so many years, and said that he didn't like it.
"Zhang Jingjing, then give me a chance to prove that my feelings for you are real." Xiao Xiao said quite seriously.
"Give you a chance?"
"Yes, don't let each other's true feelings go to waste."
"Xiao Xiao, are you serious?" Zhang Jingjing still couldn't believe that the guy who was obviously on Lin Weilan wholeheartedly would be tempted by himself.
"I'm serious, if I have the slightest lie, then I won't be able to write again for the rest of my life!" Xiao Xiao said with an oath.
"Cut, don't write, you still have a newspaper, and you're not bad for money."
"However, writing is a hobby that I cannot give up in my life, just like Wang Xizhi's love for calligraphy and Mozart's obsession with the piano. So that's a pretty big oath. ”
"Okay, then give you 1 year, if you can make me feel your sincerity, then I will agree~"
"Promise to marry me!" Xiao Xiao said first.
"Hey, don't overdo it. Before you talk about love, you want me to marry you? Zhang Jingjing raised a weak fist and landed on Xiao Xiao's shoulder.
"I'm pursuing you now on the premise of getting married, and if we confirm the relationship, of course the wedding will be done as soon as possible." Xiao Xiao said cheekily.
"Hello, there are porridge noodles for dinner, what do you eat?" The medical staff pushed the dining cart into the ward and asked.
"Porridge, you can only drink some porridge in your stomach right now." Xiao Xiao said to Zhang Jingjing.
"Well, well! Although I would love to eat hot pot! ”
"Don't worry, when your stomach is better, I will take you to Chongqing to eat the most authentic hot pot."
"Eldest sister, a bowl of porridge. Thank you! ”
After Xiao Xiao took the porridge, he scooped up a spoonful and blew it on the side of his mouth, and suddenly thought of something, "Jingjing, do you want me to feed you with your mouth?" ”
"Grandson! You get out of here~"
"Hahahaha~ Okay, good. Don't be angry, I'll spoon feed you! ”
