When Chen Cixiu was in college, he would watch short videos and try to do something interesting. If it was easy for him, he would learn it; if not, he would stop watching.
Therefore, he has a knack for creating men's hairstyles.
I'm very satisfied with myself in the mirror, and I'm also very satisfied with myself in the photos taken with my phone's front-facing camera.
At seven o'clock, Chen Cixiu found a nice restaurant called Yiranju, which offered candlelight dinners.
The environment here is quite nice. It's located about 200 meters from the river and sits on the top floor of the third floor. It's said that when the owner bought this three-story building to create You Ran Ju, many people were not optimistic about it.
But I never expected that I would be able to become a restaurant with zero negative reviews.
There were seats available, and Chen Cixiu immediately reserved two people.
I chose the most expensive package and called Jiang Yu.
"Then I'll wait for you downstairs at the company?"
Jiang Yu said.
"Okay, I'll be there soon."
Chen Cixiu stepped on the gas and headed straight for the company.
Jiang Yu had already changed her clothes; it was the same red dress she had worn before, which was probably the last one she bought in that store.
Because the one at home is still hanging there.
Where should we eat?
Jiang Yu's makeup was perfect; Chen Cixiu hadn't expected her to be so skilled at makeup.
Not every girl is good at makeup. Some girls' hands don't even look like their own. Every time I watch someone teach makeup techniques online, my eyes think: I've learned it. My brain thinks: I'm totally OK. My hands think: Do it yourself, don't use me.
Jiang Yu is different; even makeup artists would give her a thumbs up for her makeup.
If their company goes bankrupt in the future, they can start a cosmetics company together and make a fortune.
"Yiranju".
He resigned from his post to pursue Taoism.
"Yiranju? That's a shop opened by my college classmate." Jiang Yu blinked.
"ah?"
Chen Cixiu was speechless. Is the circle of rich people a cycle?
After the money came out of the pocket, it was transferred to another pocket.
So you're using your left hand to free your right, right?
"That doesn't matter, the money has already been paid anyway."
Chen Cixiu shrugged.
"good."
Jiang Yu responded with a word of agreement, then pretended nothing had happened and started playing on her phone.
If Chen Cixiu had glanced at the phone at an angle, he would have seen the sentence she had sent.
[I'll be coming over for dinner later. Don't bother me except to serve me drinks.]
The other party replied with [? ? ? ? ]
Immediately afterward, a series of question marks prompted Jiang Yu to block her for three seconds and then unblock her again, replying with: "[With my husband.]"
Upon arriving at Yiranju, Chen Cixiu parked his car and went to the entrance. After showing the QR code to the staff, they were led to the third floor, the area closest to the river, where they could see the best night view of the entire city.
However, you cannot access Yi Ran Ju without making a purchase.
So most people who want to check in have to go to the tall building next door to do so.
The building was just too tall, so the view for taking photos wasn't as good as Yi Ran Ju.
"Mr. Chen, is that right?"
A woman carrying a bottle of Yi Ran Ju's special brew and a unique wine jar walked over. Although she was dressed as a waitress, her behavior was nothing like that of a waitress.
Jiang Yu looked at his college classmate speechlessly.
This is also her best friend. She and Gu Qianqian have been friends since childhood, and they are each other's best friends in college.
"Hello, this is Chen Cixiu."
"Okay, Mr. Chen, I came here specifically to talk to you about your wife threatening me to not speak to her except when she brings you wine." She put down the wine as she said, "Please enjoy yourselves, I'll be going now."
Jiang Yu was stunned.
I've never seen anyone betray their best friend like this.
I knew she had always been abstract, but I never expected her to be this abstract now.
Chen Cixiu didn't know what language to use to reply, because the other person was walking away very quickly.
Jiang Yu could only lower his head.
Chen Cixiu found her somewhat embarrassed look amusing. "Your classmate?"
Jiang Yu nodded like a chick pecking at rice, not wanting to look up; it was too embarrassing.
This was supposed to be their first date, and they ended up making a fool of themselves.
“Your classmate is quite, well, quite nice. Let’s eat first and then drink, I think…” Chen Cixiu paused for a moment, “I forgot you’ve been here many times, so I won’t just copy those comments and give you a brief introduction.”
"Are you planning to introduce these dishes to me?" Jiang Yu looked up.
"Well, let me show you that I've done my homework," Chen Cixiu said without any hesitation.
His words completely dispelled Jiang Yu's earlier embarrassment. The two ate and chatted, but their conversation was a bit... problematic, almost to the point of having to make small talk.
Since it was their first date outside, and there were quite a few people eating, the conversation eventually turned into eating dishes.
The food at Yi Ran Ju was indeed delicious. After eating some food to fill our stomachs, the two of us prepared to have some wine.
"Chen Cixiu?"
Hearing his name called, Chen Cixiu turned his head and saw Qin Xue.
He hadn't seen Qin Xue for many days.
His face showed displeasure.
Given Qin Xue's personality, he truly regretted being her childhood sweetheart for those twenty-two years.
Other people's childhood sweethearts are either good brothers, or they become lovers, or they are like family, but they are very careful to maintain a proper distance.
But Qin Xue became increasingly strange as she grew older.
It was as if Chen Cixiu owed her something.
He ignored her.
