“fa! fafafafa!”
The baby kept calling out to the rose emoji on his dad's phone and even pointed it out to his dad.
"Okay, Dad got it."
"Lots of flowers, right? Your father loves to send flowers when chatting."
Shen Yulou paused for a few seconds above the rose emoji with his thumb before finally pressing it down, sending Chi Yuan two lines of roses in return, not to be outdone.
Two minutes passed without receiving a message from Chi Yuan, so it seemed he had already put down his phone and was resting.
"Sweetie, let's go to sleep too."
Putting down his phone, Shen Yulou hugged the little cub, covered himself with a blanket, and rubbed against the cub's fur as he drifted off to sleep.
The little one, acting as his father's toy, blinked his big eyes, hugged his father's hand, and didn't say a word.
The baby doesn't want to sleep.
Shh, Daddy's going to sleep.
Baby, be a good boy and coax Daddy to sleep.
Pat, pat Daddy's hand.
The little girl gently patted the back of her father's hand, imitating how fathers would pat their backs to lull them to sleep.
As I soothed myself, my eyes closed.
Dads seem to have a certain charm when they're sleeping; they can make even awake kids feel sleepy.
...
After two days of indulging in a life of pleasure at home, it's time for Shen Yulou to go to work tonight.
In late autumn, the sky always darkens very quickly.
When Shen Yulou went out, the sky was at the transition between dusk and night, with a faint purple hue spreading overhead, reflecting the streetlights and horns of the streets.
"Riding my beloved little bicycle, I'll never get stuck in traffic!"
After scanning a shared bicycle, Shen Yulou nimbly weaved through the congested streets and alleys, arriving at the bar entrance in the shortest possible time thanks to his superb skills.
When Shen Yulou entered the bar, he saw Chi Yuan standing at the bar, mixing drinks for the customers.
Shen Yulou didn't know when Chi Yuan started working. In Shen Yulou's memory, Chi Yuan seemed to live in the bar, and he could see him every time he came.
He remembered that the bar seemed to have a bartender in charge of the DJ area.
The bar is divided into different areas, with resident singers performing on stage, mainly providing live music.
DJs work in a dedicated turntable area, responsible for playing electronic music and other genres. The two areas operate simultaneously without interfering with each other.
What does it look like again?
He was thinking about what the other bartender looked like when he unknowingly walked up to the bar.
"Hello, what would you like to drink?"
Chi Yuan looked away from the ice block under his hand and was pleasantly surprised when he saw Shen Yulou for the first time.
"Anything is fine, just a low-alcohol drink, let's sing love songs tonight with a little buzz."
Shen Yulou squeezed onto the high stool with some difficulty, using the crossbar as a stepping stone.
The stools here seem to have very small seats, so it must be difficult for overweight people to sit comfortably.
As he was lost in thought, a familiar face suddenly appeared beside him.
"I'd like a Gin Tonic."
"Xiaoye? You're here so early?"
Shen Yulou blinked, carefully observing the DJ in their bar.
"Yeah, let's get the equipment set up soon, it'll be starting soon anyway."
Xiaoye was wearing a loose hoodie and joggers, with a super huge logo on the hoodie.
"Who are you taking turns singing with tonight? Moji again?"
"No, Ferran and Moji took leave a couple of days ago, so the schedule was rescheduled."
Shen Yulou pulled out a tissue to cover his mouth and sneezed, turning his head to the side.
The shaker flew back and forth in Chi Yuan's hands like a toy, tracing a perfect arc from above before being caught and tossed back up by him.
He placed the wine glass down, tilted the wine with its unique fragrance, and even twirled around to show off while pouring the wine.
Not a drop of wine was spilled.
That's real strength.
Shen Yulou clapped his hands for Chi Yuan like a child clapping.
Here, your wine.
What is this?
Looking at the liquor in the coconut shell in front of him, Shen Yulou took a sip, and a rich tropical flavor washed over him.
