1696. Chapter 1696 I Will Protect You (VI)

Yang Sheng also showed some gratitude on his face. Without saying anything, he nodded quickly——

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Qi. I'll definitely come and sit at home when you have time."

There was naturally some expectation in his voice.

Qi Lei nodded calmly.

"good."

Yang Sheng responded briefly, but he was also grateful, "Well, I'll get busy first, Mr. Qi."

…

In the evening, Dongfang Liuyun came to pick up Qi Lei very late. By that time, it was already dark and the entire Z city was surrounded by brilliant lights.

The couple did not go home directly, but followed Dongfang Liuyun's wishes and had a delicious Western meal in a French restaurant. After leaving the restaurant, Dongfang Liuyun took him to the night market.

Crossing the square and walking along the bustling streets, until I reached a small inn near the river, I suddenly saw a light bar, and a very familiar melody of "Bie'an" came from inside. "Like You".

Dongfang Liuyun suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of the singing.

"What's wrong?"

Qi Lei, who was holding her hand, also stopped and looked at her in surprise.

Dongfang Liuyun quickly looked away, glanced at him sideways, raised his head slightly, and said calmly, "Would you like to buy me a few drinks, Mr. Qi? I don't have anything with me."

Hearing this, Qi Lei looked at her with deep eyes, then smiled and replied, "It's an honor."

Dongfang Liuyun still likes to go to bars and drink, but he usually goes to light bars, not heavy metal bars with explosive sounds.

Qi Lei remembered that during the long period of time they had known each other, it seemed that Dongfang Liuyun had often asked him to go there. Every time he went there, he would usually find a secluded corner with a good view like now. , have a drink.

The bar is open air.

The couple sat next to each other. Outside the guardrail next to them was the riverside corridor. Through a glass window, they could see the scenery of the riverside below when they turned around.

"Sir, Miss, what do you need?"

The waiter came forward soon.

Qi Lei took the menu and glanced at it quickly, "A cup of Long Island ice tea, a bottle of brandy, this. And this platter."

Qi Lei pointed at the menu and returned it.

"Okay, please wait a moment, sir. You'll be ready soon."

"I'd like some whiskey?"

Dongfang Liuyun glanced sideways at Qi Lei and said.

"no."

Qi Lei answered simply, "Actually, you are not suitable for drinking that kind of strong liquor. It will be even more uncomfortable when you get drunk after mixing it."

"You don't drink as well as I do."

Dongfang Liuyun looked at him with interest.

"You feel really good about yourself, but I remember that every time we went out to drink together, you were always the one who got drunk."

Dongfang Liuyun smiled lightly.

Her gentle smile came into Qi Lei's eyes, and Qi Lei felt his heart jump inexplicably——

Of course he wouldn't tell her why he was the drunk one many times?

That's because when she drinks one drink, he drinks two.

Who believes that a person who has been involved in a romantic life for more than ten or twenty years can have a bad drinking ability?

He had to pay attention to some gentlemanly manners, especially in front of a smart woman like Dongfang Liuyun.

However, he is not very good at beer, not to mention other liquors or foreign wines.

Qi Lei looked at her quietly for a while and didn't say anything until the waiter brought the platter and wine.

Dongfang Liuyun poured him a glass, and he also mixed it with some ice drinks with experience. He picked up his own glass, and the couple touched it leisurely before taking a sip.

"I've been a little tired from being busy these days. I haven't caught up on what kind of health care I can do. It's nice to come and sit in a place like this. You used to be good at playing, but your mood is different, and you haven't played to the essence. "

Dongfang Liuyun put down his wine glass, grabbed a few peanuts, broke them open casually, and handed them to him.

He simply picked one up from her hand and ate it. He stopped eating after that, but he peeled it off for her quite consciously.

"Who wasn't crazy when we were young? When I was studying abroad a few years ago, several of my close friends and brothers were regulars at bars or entertainment centers, and we all had fixed VIP seats in them. The records we kept Yes, I have been eating, drinking and having fun in the entertainment city for three months. Except for going back to school occasionally, I have never been back to the apartment. "

"Later, I drank so much that I had stomach bleeding and went to the hospital. My mother rushed over from City Z and gave me a lot of advice as soon as we met. I don't know how Qi Qiming found out about this later. He became furious and asked me to pick up the books and pack my luggage and go back to China. I didn't want to read it. I was only a freshman at that time, and my mother certainly wouldn’t agree to it. After a long time of persuasion from my friend, I gave up the idea of ​​returning to China.”

Qi Lei was never willing to mention that he was studying abroad, because, indeed, they both lived a rough time during that time.

"and after?"

Dongfang Liuyun looked at him with some confusion, "I remember that your grades abroad seemed to be very good. You got an excellent graduation thesis, a top student in the Department of Architecture, and a double-degree master's degree?"

"Those are all false things. However, it was only because of my grades that my tutor did not give me too bad marks on my usual grades. Therefore, my mother and others did not know much about my life abroad. My tutor and I The relationship is pretty good.”

"Really?"

Dongfang Liuyun glanced at him with a smile.

Qi Lei also glanced back at her, lowered his eyes, moved the peeled peanuts over, and then took a sip of the wine, "What else?"

Dongfang Liuyun pursed his lips and smiled, supporting his chin with one hand, looking at him seriously, and picking up the peeled peanuts in front of him and eating them casually.

"Madam Qi, I bet with you that the girl opposite you doesn't have a boyfriend, and she doesn't come to the bar to wait for someone, but to hook someone, do you believe it?"

Mr. Qi, an expert, suddenly signaled his wife with his eyes and said with interest.

Hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun also looked in the direction of his gaze, and a pure, beautiful and gentle girl came into view.

"Why do you think so?"

Dongfang Liuyun raised her eyebrows and asked.

"Do you want to make a bet?"

Qi Lei whispered.

"What's the bet?"

"Whoever loses, go up and sing a song?"

Qi Lei asked tentatively.

Dongfang Liuyun thought for a long time before nodding, "Okay, but the way you look at her is too direct. I noticed that she seemed to be peeking at you. Could she think you are a **** maniac?"
