...
As Ye Zhi walked into the bar, Nicole picked up the guitar she had just placed on the table and said to me, "You guys chat... I won't disturb you... Oh, and when you pay the bill later, just say you're Nicole's friend, and you'll get a 30% discount."
Nicole and Ye Zhi brushed past each other, and a moment later, Ye Zhi stood where Nicole had just sat, but it felt even more like a dream than Nicole's experience.
I stood up and laughed, "It feels like a dream... Is this really a global village now? We've come all this way!"
"You'd better not think you're dreaming, because just like your trip to Shanghai, I'm just passing through Dali."
I looked at Ye Zhi with a bit of embarrassment...
Ye Zhi sat down opposite me. Although she didn't press me with her eyes, I felt even more awkward than before. I actually hoped she would expose me, but she didn't.
I finally spoke and asked her, "What would you like to drink?"
"But we have beer right here."
"Shall I open a bottle for you?"
"Um."
I handed her a bottle of "Romance in the Wind and Moon," and only then did she ask me, "Was that woman your friend?"
"I guess so... We've only known each other for a few days. She sings at the bar across the street... By the way, has your injury healed?"
"I'm not fully recovered yet, but the doctor said that as long as I don't lift heavy things, there won't be any problems."
I paused for a moment, then said very seriously, "Shouldn't you learn your lesson?... Car accidents are as dangerous as tigers; I feel scared for you just hearing about it!"
Ye Zhi looked at me first, then replied, "I was scared too, especially in the instant of the car accident. I instinctively thought of many things... I really thought I was going to die. Luckily, the driver repeatedly reminded me to wear my seatbelt before he drove off, otherwise..."
Although Ye Zhi only told half of the story, I was still terrified. Ye Zhi's car was no bad, but she still survived because she was wearing a seatbelt. You can imagine how dangerous the scene must have been.
I scolded, "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?... I really feel like you don't consider me a friend."
"This isn't a good thing either. The more people know, the more people worry... Besides, I know you've been quite busy lately." Ye Zhi seemed more talkative than before. She took the initiative to change the subject and asked me, "How have you been lately? Is everything going smoothly?"
"Everything went quite smoothly... I never expected that I could acquire 16 shops from Cao Jinbo so easily. Now I have a total of 20 shops that can be converted into inns... Well, if we're talking about difficulties, there are indeed some... Currently, these shops are already suitable for basic living, but the soft furnishings haven't been done yet... I think it's still necessary to decorate the rooms... However, I lack aesthetic sense and don't know what kind of decorations to use to create an atmosphere in the rooms."
After a brief pause, I said to Ye Zhi, "I believe women have a natural advantage in aesthetics, and since you work in the hotel industry and are quite knowledgeable, I'd like to ask you for some advice... Is that alright?"
