The waiter felt that Leng Leng was right, but it seemed that he was not entirely right.
Chen Man nodded immediately, "How about this?"
Leng Leng nodded and said to the waiter, "Just give me a bottle of this rice wine and a pot of tea. Do you have tea?"
The waiter took one look at their table and apologized quickly, "I'm sorry, maybe there were too many customers today and I forgot to bring you tea. Tea is free and will be brought right away."
Leng Leng nodded, "It's okay."
The waiter then said, "By the way, we have rice wine in two-jin, five-jin, and ten-jin bottles. What would you like?"
Leng Leng: "Two kilograms."
The waiter quickly brought the tea and rice wine.
Chen Man held the bamboo tube and looked at it again and again. When she opened the lid, a sweet and fragrant smell came out with a hint of alcohol.
"Let me try it." She poured herself half a cup and poured another half cup for Leng Leng.
"Cheers." Chen Man raised her glass to Leng Leng with a smile.
Leng Leng raised his glass and clinked it with his, then looked at Chen Man sincerely.
"Thank you, Sister Man. Before, I felt like I was trapped in a swamp. I was conscious and wanted to save myself, but I was panicked, too ambitious, and had limited abilities, so I could only let myself struggle. You passed by and helped me out. Thank you."
At that time, I felt that I should take the postgraduate entrance examination while it was hot, while I had a foundation of learning and the knowledge in my mind was not yet outdated.
In fact, it is just deceiving yourself and escaping from reality.
Chen Man smiled at her and said, "I'm very happy to meet you. You are the closest friend I can have now. I need you too."
Leng Leng smiled, tears glistening in his eyes, and he picked up the cup to cover them.
Chen Man withdrew her gaze, picked up the cup, brought it to her mouth, and carefully wet her lips.
A sweet taste with a hint of alcohol invaded Chen Man's mouth.
Chen Man's eyes lit up. "This tastes good! Isn't this just a drink? Why is it called wine?"
Leng Leng: "It still smells like alcohol."
Chen Man nodded, drank the rice wine in one gulp, and then filled a full cup for herself and Leng Leng as well.
It is a leisure time, where we can eat slowly, drink slowly, and chat about life slowly.
"You and Xingzhi are childhood sweethearts?" Chen Man asked casually.
Leng Leng glanced at her and said, "Kindergarten, elementary school, and junior high school are all in the same class."
"Wow, this is too good to be true. I'm so envious of you having a boy protecting you since you were little."
Leng Leng smiled, a little shyly.
"Back in junior high school, fighting was very common, and girls were easily flirted with by men outside the school. It was really good to have Xu Xingzhi around."
Chen Man held her face in her arms and spoke to Leng Leng with a smile, "Have you two not been in touch since then?"
"The first summer he left, we were in touch quite often, but then it faded a bit because I was in high school and had a month off, so I didn't have time to contact."
"Later on, he became a big star and must have been very busy. Once, during the Lunar New Year, he came back and stayed overnight. He asked me to stay and added me on WeChat, but he left again the next day."
"We added him on WeChat and chatted from time to time, but I always felt like he was busy. Every day his Moments were filled with information about where he was, what he was working on, whether he was practicing singing, dancing, or filming."
At that time, whenever she posted something on WeChat Moments, he was often the first one to like it.
The awakening of adolescence, the ambiguity that could not be expressed, she was secretly happy that he could keep in touch with her.
However, Xu Xingzhi always gave her the feeling of a passionate and busy scumbag. Maybe he was really busy.
"After that, I was in constant pain because of that incident, and gradually paid less attention to his circle of friends."
"It wasn't until he came back this year that we got together more frequently."
Chen Man: "But I feel like he's always been very familiar with you. It doesn't look like we've been apart for a long time. He's quite active in front of you."
Leng Leng shook his head. "No, he's actually a bit like his second brother. He's not the type to talk a lot in front of outsiders. He did it on purpose."
He did this on purpose, using his lively and funny appearance as a cover, so that he could openly put aside his pride and get closer to her.
If Xu Xingzhi didn't take the initiative, there would be no possibility for the two of them in their lifetime.
Leng Leng knew herself very well. She was pretending to be aloof, so she would never take the initiative to approach Xu Xingzhi.
Chen Man understood a little.
The two of them talked as they ate, taking a sip from time to time.
Chen Man blinked, her eyes were sticky, and she sat there staring blankly at the front.
"It's over, Leng Leng, I seem to be drunk."
Leng Leng's face flushed, "Huh? Drunk? Drunk, go find Brother Jun Yang."
They had only drunk half of the wine, but they were already getting drunk very quickly.
Leng Leng took the bamboo tube and looked at it closely. "Isn't this sweet wine? How did you make me drunk? I can drink ten bowls without any problem."
Her mind was also stuck.
Chen Man felt that she couldn't take it any longer. This was going to get her nowhere. Her mind was getting more and more drunk, and she was in a very obvious trance.
Chen Man took out her cell phone from her bag and called Xu Junyang.
The phone in his pocket was vibrating. Xu Junyang took it out and looked at it while listening to the leaders talking.
Seeing that it was Chen Man calling, he immediately answered the call.
"Hey~Brother Yang, I'm drunk~" Her voice was soft, as if she was acting coquettishly.
"It's okay, sit down, I'll be right there."
Xu Junyang didn't hang up the phone. He raised his glass and gestured to everyone, "Secretaries, mayors, and leaders, I'm sorry, I have something to deal with right away. I have to excuse myself."
Everyone at the table was stunned. They wanted to call out but failed because he walked too fast.
