After Wu Da changed his clothes, he came out and saw Chen Yingying talking to herself with her face flushed.

"What's wrong?"

Wu Da asked, puzzled.

Chen Yingying was startled, her face turned even redder, and she lowered her head, saying, "Um... it's nothing."

Wu Da nodded.

As the air suddenly fell silent, the atmosphere in the room gradually became strange.

Both of them had a strange feeling in their hearts, and their hearts couldn't help but beat faster.

Wu Da broke the silence first, tentatively asking, "Um... should we go out now?"

Chen Yingying nodded.

The two left the hotel together and hailed a taxi.

Let's be light in the sycamore grove.

Chen Yingying brought Wu Da in and found a seat.

Because it was daytime, there weren't many guests, and it was very quiet inside.

Wu Da was somewhat surprised: "You come to this place often?"

Chen Yingying nodded slightly: "When I'm in a bad mood, or when I'm bored. But now that I've graduated, it's been a long time since I've come here."

Wu Da nodded.

At this moment, the waiter came over with the menu, and Chen Yingying spoke first: "We'll order via mobile phone."

Upon hearing this, the waiter tactfully left.

Chen Yingying rested her chin on her hand, staring intently at Wu Da.

The latter seemed a little embarrassed by her gaze: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"So handsome!"

Chen Yingying's red lips parted slightly, her eyes sparkling with a myriad of emotions.

Wu Da smiled and said, "You're very pretty too!"

Chen Yingying's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Um."

"Am I pretty compared to Senior Su and Su Qing?"

Wu Da said earnestly, "They are them, and you are you. In my eyes, you are the most beautiful!"

Chen Yingying burst out laughing, her laughter as bright as a blooming flower.

Wu Da was stunned.

It's really...so beautiful!

Chen Yingying said with a smile in her eyes, "I'm telling the truth, you've become a lot more handsome."

As she spoke, she took out her phone, turned on the camera, and showed the two of them in the frame. Chen Yingying playfully made a peace sign!

Wu Da looked at the camera and unconsciously revealed a smile.

Click!

The image freezes.

After taking the photo, Chen Yingying opened the app to scan the QR code, then looked up at Wu Da and asked, "What would you like to drink?"

Wu Da said, "I'll listen to you."

"..."

Chen Yingying thought for a moment and ordered a few dishes and a large glass of fruit wine.

The two gradually became familiar with each other, losing their initial restraint and opening up to each other.

Wu Da occasionally drank alcohol while in the army, and his alcohol tolerance became quite good. Besides, these fruit wines didn't have much alcohol content, so he drank them like beverages.

Chen Yingying, on the other hand, is different. She has a very low alcohol tolerance and can't drink alcohol at all. Even when it was fruit wine, she would only drink a small glass.

Today, she seemed to have let go, perhaps because Wu Da was by her side, she felt a strong sense of security!

After a few glasses of fruit wine, Chen Yingying's face turned slightly red.

She picked up a snail with her chopsticks and began to speak.

"Do you know? My family used to force me to go on blind dates, and they even wanted to send me abroad to be with my so-called fiancé."

Wu Da paused, realizing he hadn't heard her mention this before.

However, upon hearing the words "fiancé," Wu Da felt a little down for some reason.

Chen Yingying continued to explain: "Because the situation in recent years has not been very good, many companies have gone bankrupt. My family's company happens to have a niche product and is also facing the crisis of bankruptcy. In order to save the company, my father sought cooperation with overseas companies. Of course, this cooperation is nothing more than maintaining it through marriage."

Wu Da paused for a moment, then said, "It's pretty melodramatic!"

Chen Yingying smiled and said, "Yeah! It's pretty melodramatic!"

"And then what?"

Wu Da asked softly.

"Later... how could I possibly agree to such a marriage? I heard that the overseas young master has more than one wife."

"!!!"

Chen Yingying sighed: "Later, my parents had a change of heart, abandoned the cooperation with the other party, and declared bankruptcy."

After her family's company declared bankruptcy, her parents still owned other shops. The company was no longer in operation, and they were only responsible for managing those shops.

I've earned enough money to last most of my life, enough to live comfortably for the rest of my days.

Her family's finances plummeted.

Chen Yingying poured out all the things that had happened over the years, and Wu Da listened quietly. He looked at the beautiful girl in front of him with heartache in his eyes.

The girl tried to numb herself with alcohol, but after finishing the fruit wine, she was only dizzy and did not fall asleep immediately.

"My head is so dizzy..."

Chen Yingying frowned, clutching her head in pain.

Wu Da got up and sat down next to her.

Feeling the familiar presence, Chen Yingying instinctively leaned closer to him.

"Let me massage it for you, you can rest for a bit."

Wu Da reached out and gently pressed on her temples.

"Wu Da, if you don't come back, do you think I'll have to wait for you for more than ten years?"

The girl suddenly spoke up and asked.

Wu Da was taken aback for a moment, then his expression softened as he replied, "No, because I'm already back!"

I'm back! I'll be standing right beside you!

Chen Yingying chuckled: "Hmph! You're smart enough not to give up your feelings for the sake of your so-called career. Otherwise, you deserve to be single!"

Wu Da was both amused and exasperated.

Just then, a waiter approached and looked at Chen Yingying with concern: "Miss Chen, are you drunk?"

Wu Da looked at him; he was fair-skinned and a handsome young man, and seemed to care a lot about Chen Yingying.

He said calmly, "Don't worry, I'll take care of her."

The waiter looked at him suspiciously: "Excuse me, who are you?"

Wu Da gently nudged Chen Yingying and asked softly, "Yingying, who am I?"

Feeling a little dizzy, she asked in confusion, "You're Wu Da! How come you're even more drunk than me?"

"Wu Da...my beloved!"

Upon hearing the last sentence, Wu Da smiled.

The waiter looked disappointed, apologized, and left.

Wu Da looked at the girl in front of him and said softly, "Please come to places like this less often in the future, okay?"

"Hmm? You don't like it?"

"I don't really like it."

"Okay, I won't come again!"

"Good boy/girl~"

After leaving the bar, Wu Da helped Chen Yingying back to the hotel.

Wu Da breathed a sigh of relief after turning on the air conditioner.

I gave her some warm water.

Chen Yingying, having recovered her strength, said somewhat embarrassedly, "Sorry, I'm a little embarrassed."

Wu Da smiled and said, "What's so shameful about it?"

Chen Yingying stared at him blankly, then suddenly made a bold decision.

She reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, their faces almost touching, each able to feel the other's breath.

Their eyes met, and both of them tensed up.

"Wu Da, I don't want to miss you..."

Wu Da's heart stirred. He didn't speak, but instead proved his determination with his actions.

He kissed the girl's lips directly.

The emotions that had been suppressed for several years erupted like a volcano, and everything came together naturally!

"bath……"
