Chapter 1965: Let Him Spoil Him
Cheng Xiaoyu stood by the roadside, looking at the vehicles on the road. It was the rush hour, and cars were coming and going in an endless stream.
She is always so busy at home. Even when others have finished get off work, he is still busy...
But the problem was that Mr. Shi always answered her questions in a very formal manner, which was very different from his usual answer. In normal times, he would say something like, "You missed me after just one day of not seeing me?"
"Are you still angry? About that wedding invitation..."
"I'm not angry, don't think too much." He paused and added, "By the way, you don't have to wait for me tonight. I don't know what time I'll be back. Go to bed early."
"oh……"
After that, Shi Chenyuan ended the call.
Looking at the phone screen that had exited the call interface, Cheng Xiaoyu pursed his lips and turned around.
Xiao Jiu was looking at her: "How about it, is Chen Yuan coming?"
Cheng Xiaoyu shook her head: "He's still busy and said he won't have dinner with us."
"Are you still upset?"
Cheng Xiaoyu pursed her lips: "I don't know either, anyway, it's neither hot nor cold."
Gu Hanye tsk-tsks, "You're still throwing a tantrum? He spoils you!"
Then Gu Hanye opened the back door and said, "Alright, let's get in the car. The three of us are going to have something delicious to eat. Don't worry about him."
Cheng Xiaoyu simply stopped thinking about it and got into the car with Jiuyao and sat in the back seat.
Young Master Gu served as their driver. The three of them chatted about their vacation plans along the way and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Dinner that day was chosen to be at a high-end French restaurant.
There were not many customers in the restaurant. A saxophonist was playing lazy jazz on the small stage, and there were two or three guests sitting scattered in front of the bar. In short, as soon as you walked in, you would feel very relaxed and romantic.
After the main course arrived, Gu Hanye smiled and said, "How about it, Xiaoyu? This is not bad, right?"
Cheng Xiaoyu nodded and looked at Jiuyao opposite: "Do you two come here often?"
Su Jiuyao pointed to the bar and said, "This is where he got me drunk for the first time. We had just been together for a short time at that time."
Gu Hanye smiled awkwardly and said that it was not his fault. It was mainly because Jiuyao insisted on ordering a very good-looking cocktail that day. The cocktail was sea blue. Jiuyao liked the sea and insisted on ordering it. As a result, after drinking the cocktail, her body became weak, which directly lived up to the name of the cocktail, See You Tomorrow.
Su Jiuyao glared at him: "It's obvious that your motives are impure, otherwise why didn't you remind me that the alcohol content of the wine is high? It's vodka and brandy..."
"You're so stubborn, I figured I couldn't stop you, so I just let you drink as much as you want. I'm by your side anyway, so I can take you home anyway."
I don’t know if Gu Hanye’s words triggered some ambiguous memories between the two of them, but after he finished speaking, Xiaojiu’s face flushed instantly, and she glared at Gu Hanye with a look of anger and resentment.
Cheng Xiaoyu cleared his throat and said, "Hey, stop it, you two. I've had enough dog food today."
Gu Hanye looked at Jiuyao with a smile and handed her the steak on his plate.
The meal was delicious. Afterwards, the three chatted for a while while the performer changed to a new piece of music.
As soon as this song was played, Jiuyao and Gu Hanye smiled at each other.
Gu Hanye asked, "Dance again?"
Jiuyao asked him, "Did you ask someone to play this piece of music?"
Gu Hanye didn't comment, but just smiled: "Would you like to dance, Miss Su?"
When Jiuyao looked at Gu Hanye, her eyes sparkled with happiness, and she also felt a sense of overcoming countless difficulties and finally standing in front of the other person.
Cheng Xiaoyu couldn't help but ask, "Does this song have a story?"
Gu Hanye said to Xiaoyu, "It was thanks to this song that Jiuyao and I fell in love with each other through a dance and got married with just one thought."
When Cheng Xiaoyu heard this, he quickly waved his hand and said, "Then you two go quickly. I just want to go to the bar to watch the bartender show off his skills."
So Gu Hanye took Jiuyao's hand and walked into the dance floor with her. The two danced gracefully on the dance floor. Cheng Xiaoyu seemed to see the scene when they first met a year ago, and it felt romantic just thinking about it.
Today is also a big day for them because the results of Jiuyao’s prenatal checkup were very good and their baby is very healthy.
Perhaps this is why the two of them are so excited.
Cheng Xiaoyu felt that the other two had completely gotten along, but she and Mr. Shi seemed to still be a little short of the right level...
She turned her gaze back from the dance floor, sighed secretly, stood up and walked to the bar.
The bartender behind the bar is a typical gentleman, wearing a dark blue suit vest, a light blue shirt and a dark tie. He has stylish hair, handsome features, and elegance in every move.
The bartender is mixing a cocktail with a calm expression and focused eyes, revealing confidence and calmness.
When a skill is mastered to a certain level, people will show that expression.
Cheng Xiaoyu had also seen the same expression on Shi Chenyuan's face, which fascinated her.
She hadn't drunk a drop of wine yet, but when she thought of her boss, she felt inexplicably drunk. Cheng Xiaoyu leaned her arms on the bar and laughed at herself for being hopeless.
The bartender was making a cocktail for a male customer next to him. Cheng Xiaoyu watched the whole process. The moment when the surface of the liquor was ignited at the end was particularly powerful. The blue flame was like magic.
When the bartender was free, Cheng Xiaoyu immediately asked him to make her a drink as well.
Through the conversation between the bartender and the male guest just now, she already understood that the bartender would observe the guests and mix a glass of wine specifically for each customer, so she didn't need to order anything, just wait patiently like a blind box game.
The bartender looked at her gently for a few seconds and said, "Then a white Negroni."
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know much about cocktails, so she nodded and said yes.
In fact, she just felt a little blocked in her heart.
Although she was smiling all day, had a great time shopping with Xiaojiu, the meal Gu Hanye treated them to was delicious, and they also talked about many light topics, she still felt uncomfortable in her heart.
So I wanted to drink some wine and relax.
She had promised Shi Chenyuan that she would never drink outside when he was not around.
But Xiaojiu and Gu Hanye are here today, so let’s make an exception.
The bartender put a cube of ice in the glass, with a small purple daisy frozen inside. He stirred the ice with a golden-bronze spoon. The ice cube spun in the glass, and the small purple flower also spun in Cheng Xiaoyu's eyes.
Then the bartender showed Cheng Xiaoyu his magic experiment, which was even cooler than lighting a fire in the cup just now.
In the special wine vessel for mixing cocktails, the bartender poured a total of three kinds of wine. Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know what they were. She could only see that the colors were golden and transparent, and smelled a faint orange scent in the air.
Then the bartender took two wine vessels and poured the wine into the air, forming a white water column, which then flew perfectly into another metal wine vessel without a drop falling.
It flew back and forth like a magic trick, and Cheng Xiaoyu was dazzled. The aroma of wine had already quietly spread around.
Even before drinking a drop, it felt like I was already semi-intoxicated.
Originally she wanted to drown her sorrows in alcohol, but after seeing the bartender's operation, Cheng Xiaoyu had only one thought in her mind: she must invite Mr. Shi to have a drink!
