Qu Qingzhu originally planned to make only two dishes, one meat and one vegetable, but when Qin Yunie walked in, he specially made a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

Qin Yunie picked up some scrambled eggs with tomatoes with her chopsticks, put them in her mouth, and hummed softly, a satisfied look on her face. She narrowed her eyes slightly, savoring the sweet and sour taste. Among her favorite dishes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes would definitely rank in the top three.

Qin Yunie took a few bites to fill her stomach. A smile spread across her face. She looked at Qu Qingzhu, who was eating across from her without saying a word and with an exceptionally elegant posture, and said, "Your cooking skills are truly amazing. Can I continue to eat with you in the future?"

Qu Qingzhu raised his head and looked straight at Qin Yunie. Under her expectant gaze, he spit out three words mercilessly: "No." After that, his eyes were still cold, without a trace of hesitation.

Qin Yunie: "..." She sighed helplessly, looking at Qu Qingzhu who continued to eat with his head down, and muttered to herself pitifully: "Alas, I thought I met a familiar neighbor and we could help each other, but I didn't expect that the good person I thought was so unkind. Facing a poor neighbor like me, he didn't care at all. It was obviously just a matter of a meal, but he was unwilling to help, leaving me to endure hunger alone..." She spoke nonsense while secretly observing Qu Qingzhu's expression.

It’s a pity that Qu Qingzhu’s expression remained calm, without any change due to her words, and she was not disturbed at all.

Qin Yunie stared at Qu Qingzhu without blinking, his gaze so hot that it seemed to burn a hole in him.

Being stared at so intently by the other person was really a bit too much. Qu Qingzhu finally couldn't help but look up at Qin Yunie. After a slight pause, he said, "I'm not at home often, so your idea of ​​continuing to eat for free is not very realistic."

"Then when you are free at home, can I come over for dinner?"

"……what ever."

"good!"

After returning home from Qu Qingzhu's house, Qin Yunie didn't feel comfortable bothering Qu Qingzhu again. To avoid being tortured by hunger again, she went to the supermarket downstairs. In the supermarket, she bought a bunch of junk food and then hurried home.

Qin Yunie lay listlessly on the sofa in the living room, then picked up her cell phone and called Du Zhong.

"What's wrong? It's rare for the great actress Qin to call me." Du Zhong's slightly teasing voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Let me ask you, what else does Qu Qingzhu usually do besides going to the bar?" Qin Yunie ignored Du Zhong's teasing and went straight to the point.

"What's wrong? Hasn't Queen Qin given up yet? My brother Zhu is not easy to pursue." Du Zhong's voice still contained a hint of sarcasm.

"Haven't you heard that it's easy for a girl to win over a boy? I will get him sooner or later! Tell me what Qu Qingzhu usually does?" Qin Yunie said anxiously, her brows furrowed, and her eyes revealed a firm determination.

"It's nothing, he just manages the bar." Du Zhong said slowly.

"Then what did he say? He's not often at home. Could it be that he spent the whole day in the bar?" Qin Yunie asked with a puzzled frown.

"Yes, he used to like making cocktails. Sometimes he would sit at the bar counter and act as a bartender, making cocktails for the guests. This can be considered as one of his hobbies. So generally speaking, he is always in the bar." Du Zhong explained.

"So that's how it is. I understand. Thank you." Qin Yunie suddenly realized, and a determined light flashed in his eyes.

"Okay, then I wish you success in pursuing that person!" Du Zhong said with a smile.

"Thank you for your good wishes. Bye." Qin Yunie said and hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yunie got the answer she wanted. She raised her chin slightly, her eyes full of confidence. She decided to stay in the Ye Se Shen Lun Bar for the next few days. She didn't believe that Qu Qingzhu would not be moved by her persistence. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a determined smile.

In the next week, Qin Yunie went out early and came back late every day, following Qu Qingzhu's footsteps closely.

Every day she would appear at the door of the Nightfall Bar on time, and then quietly watch Qu Qingzhu walk into the bar. She would follow him in, find a seat in a corner, and sit down, her eyes always fixed on Qu Qingzhu.

Sometimes, Qu Qingzhu would mix cocktails at the bar, and Qin Yunie would sit quietly by the side, watching him skillfully fiddle with the cocktail utensils. His focused expression made her heart beat fast.

Qu Qingzhu had been aware of Qin Yunie sitting in the corner these days. That day, he stopped what he was doing, looked at her and asked, "You come here every day, aren't you tired?"

Qin Yunie smiled slightly and said, "I'm not tired. I'm very happy to see you."

Qu Qingzhu frowned, continued to mix the wine, and said, "There's no point in you following me like this."

Qin Yunie said disapprovingly: "How can it be meaningless? I just want to stay with you more and get to know you better."

Qu Qingzhu didn't say anything else, but just mixed the drinks silently.

Qin Yunie added: "I found that you are really handsome when you mix cocktails. Every movement is so smooth and natural."

Qu Qingzhu said calmly: "This is just my job."

Qin Yunie continued, "But I think this is not just a job, it's also a passion and pursuit for you, right?"

Qu Qingzhu was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "I guess so."

Qin Yunie's eyes sparkled as she said, "I really admire you for being able to do something you love so well."
