Come back with me, will you?
Right at this moment, the depressed Shen Xiran had already reached the place they had agreed on.
It was still early, and there were only a few people in the "Night Rain".
Upon entering, she took a glance at it and discovered that there were only a few kittens inside. Even the normally energetic bartender had a face full of boredom, so she sat down on the bar counter in low spirits and said to the bartender Mi Luo: "Give me a cup of mango juice."
Mi Luo glanced at her and helplessly rolled his eyes. "Please make clear that this is a bar, not a children's restaurant." Having said that, he poured a glass of orange juice from the corner and placed it in front of her. "Drink it. Be careful not to go sour to the teeth."
She raised her cup and smiled as she revealed her snow-white teeth at Mi Luo: "Thank you."
After saying that, she took a sip. The familiar fragrant, sour and sweet taste entered her mouth, making her unable to restrain her relaxed expression.
Yes, the juice here tasted better, but she didn't know what Mi Luo had added into the juice. After drinking it for a while, she just thought that the juice here tasted the best.
Mi Luo snorted: "Are you done drinking yet, then leave after you drink, you stopped me from doing business."
She turned around and saw that there was no one behind her. She could not help but smile. "I just like to drink your juice, don't you find me unpleasing to the eye?"
She had never drank alcoholic beverages before. Originally, she didn't have much affinity with bars, but she couldn't stop Zhu Lingling, a close friend who liked to drink alcohol, from coming here with her a few times. She couldn't drink alcohol anymore, but it didn't look like she was sitting here doing nothing, so when she found out that Mi Luo, the bartender, was not only good at drinking alcohol, but he was also better at making fruit juice than other people.
Therefore, every time she came here, he would always have nose, nose, eyes, and eyes. For the sake of delicious fruit juice, Shen Xiran did not take it seriously, since this person had just said that if he really wanted to do something to her, he would not do so.
Indeed, when Mi Luo saw that she did not move, he could not help but feel helpless: "I say, you did not drink at the bar, what are you doing here?"
"Then why didn't I ask you why a bartender would produce such a delicious juice? Could it be that someone's family likes it?" she asked, smiling at him.
Who didn't know that Mi Luo already had a daughter at such a young age?
As expected, he stopped talking, turned his face away with a snort, and pretended not to see her.
She smiled as she finished the cup in her hand and pushed it over. "One more."
He said gruffly, "No."
She tilted her head in confusion. "Really? "But I saw …"
"It's for Ellie, not you." he said quickly.
"Well, I'd like a glass of grape juice now." she said again.
Hmph, she was a customer, a god!
Mi Luo's face stiffened.
He laughed complacently in his heart, the depressed feeling he had earlier disappeared quite a bit. Seeing that Mi Luo was once again getting busy after thinking about what he had just said, she took out his cell phone with a smile on his face. He first opened his WeChat to see if anyone was talking to his, then thought for a bit before turning on the news.
Actually, she knew that what she saw now was a form of self-abuse. Helpless, she couldn't help it.
The results were exactly as she had expected. The news had reported that Si Lianye, her fiancee, had rushed over with a pain in her heart that made it difficult for her to resist. Ye Xuan had participated in a luxurious dinner, and the combination of the handsome men and beautiful women had attracted countless of eyes.
"Love, show …" Anger flared in her heart as she watched. She muttered the popular phrase on the internet, "Be careful when you're splitting the points."
After saying that, he angrily threw his phone onto the stage, just in time for Mi Luo to push a cup of dark purple juice over. Hearing her words, he raised his eyebrows, his eyes carrying a teasing look: "What? "Thinking of spring?"
Although he was a foreigner, he did not know why he could speak Chinese so fluently. Sometimes, he could even speak better than her. This was also one of the reasons why she liked to look for him.
She frowned, directly picked up the juice and said, "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute."
Mi Luo made a face: "Look, someone is feeling guilty."
She was so angry that she turned around and ignored him. The number of people on the dance floor gradually increased.
As night fell, the various people all went up on stage. Mi Luo was also gradually busy, and did not have time to talk to her anymore.
Just as she was about to call Yue Se to rush him, she received his phone call: "Xi Ran, I'm almost there. Where are you?
She replied with a smile, "No need, I've been waiting for you at the bar for a long time."
"Is that so?" His voice was filled with surprise. "Alright, I'll be right there."
She put down her cell phone and nonchalantly followed Mi Luo as she talked. Although she was waiting for a date with Yue Se, her mind couldn't help but fly to Si Lianye's place.
Hmph, if she saw his words again, she would definitely explain herself to him before viciously taking revenge on him …
Scum!
Thinking of that man holding his fiancée's hand made her heart ache …
When Yue Se walked in, he saw her sitting on a high chair at the counter. He had a dazed look on his face and a cup of wine in his hands.
In his eyes, she was just an ordinary Chinese girl with a pretty and sweet appearance, and a gentle personality. He had fallen in love with her at first sight, and had been trying to pursue her for the past three years, but he had never thought that not to mention that he could not even match up to a stranger who had just appeared a few days ago.
Thinking of this, it was as if he swallowed a ball of fire in his heart, causing his internal organs to hurt.
He composed himself, walked up, and called out to her, "Xi Ran."
When she heard this, she was shocked and her eyes immediately focused. At this moment, he was certain that she was indeed distracted just now.
What was she thinking? Thinking about himself? Or was he thinking about that man?
"You're here?" Shen Xiran calmed himself down and jumped down from the chair: "Come, let's go over there and talk."
With that, she grabbed his sleeve and walked towards the corner.
The boss of this bar was very ingenious. Although it wasn't very big, it was very quiet, especially in some corners. He took into account that some customers didn't like noisy environments, so he consciously arranged the corners to be a quiet place with potted plants separating the sides.
That was also their favorite place.
Furthermore, she was already used to her actions so she didn't take it to heart. But this time, Yue Se had a different idea in his heart, and couldn't help but have a strange expression.
And this scene had also fallen into the eyes of Si Lianye's subordinates.
Thus, when she was completely unaware, the scene of her pulling Yue Se along was secretly taken in silence, and was sent to Si Lianye at the fastest speed possible.
Usually, four or five people would sit in their seats, but there were only two people, making the seats seem empty.
As soon as she sat down, she looked at him and said, "When are you going back?"
Yue Se was startled: "Tomorrow afternoon's plane ticket."
She nodded her head. "That's good too. Your achievement is just average here after all. It's a good thing that you can be with your parents when you go back."
He revealed a wry smile, "Really? However, I feel that if I could choose, I would rather stay here. "
As he spoke, he looked straight at her, the meaning in his words obvious.
She turned her head and did not look at him, "Yue Se, actually, I have always thought of you as my good friend. Did you know how much I envy you for being able to go back and accompany your parents?
He was stunned. "Your parents …" Even though he had known her for three years, he felt that this girl from the East was like a ball of fog. There were many things he couldn't see clearly about, such as her background and background.
She smiled with faint ridicule. "My mother is dead, and my father is the same as dead."
"Ahh, sorry, I didn't know things would turn out like this …" He apologized frantically. He did not expect the girl to have such a rough life.
She smiled and shook her head, "It's all in the past, I don't care anymore."
No wonder! Sometimes, when she thought of it, she felt very depressed. Why did everyone else have such a happy family while she herself was like this?
The heavens were truly unfair.
"Actually, I have always treated you as a good friend of mine, so I'm glad that you're able to return this time. Since our communications are developed and there's a network everywhere, and planes are very convenient, it's not like we won't be able to meet again. Why are you so reluctant to leave?"
She felt that his words were already very sincere, but Yue Se only had a calm face, it was not known if he took it or not.
She sighed in her heart, feeling that she had done her best.
"Xiran." Yue Se looked up at her, as if he had made some sort of decision: "I want to ask you something."
She sighed in her heart again, her face still smiling. "Tell me."
He hesitated, as if he knew there was a high chance she wouldn't agree, but in the end he asked, "When my mom asked me if I had a girlfriend, I said I did."
She smiled. "And then?"
"That was a year ago. At that time, I felt that I should be able to catch up to you, that's why I said that. However, I realized that I was wrong, very wrong. He hesitated for a moment before he asked with great difficulty, "Are you willing to come with me to meet my mother?"
He looked at her expression and quickly added, "Don't misunderstand, I don't necessarily want you to be my girlfriend. But my mother has heard about you countless times in my mouth. I even showed her your photo and had great hopes of returning. She's been sick recently, so I can't bear to …"
After pausing for a long time, he said, "I know this request makes things difficult for you, but Xiran, I know you are a good girl. My mother likes you a lot, and she has always wanted you to come back with me to see her …" "So, can you promise to come with me for a day or so?"
His clear blue eyes were fixed on her, and there was a silent supplication in them.
She opened her mouth to refuse, but when she saw the pleading in his eyes, she hesitated, because in his eyes she saw sadness.
Perhaps his mother was very sick, or else he wouldn't have spoken to her in such a tone.
It made her think of her own mother. At that time, her mother was severely ill, and even though she tried with all her strength to keep her mother alive, she was still unable to do so. But now, looking at Yue Se who was sitting opposite to her, it was as if she was looking at her own past self again.
