The building marked on the hand-drawn map is next to Shinjuku Isetan, and the signboard of the local izakaya hangs on the third floor. "Since you want to invite me, why don't you find a better place?" Entering the elevator, Zhu Mei was aggrieved. "No way, it's hosted by Ojisan." Hearing Qian Duliu's words, Zhu Mei nodded impatiently and said, "Hmph!" There is an automatic Japanese-style lattice door at the entrance of the store.Before seven o'clock, drunken guests could be heard shouting loudly.Through the door, office workers can be seen taking off their ties.

As soon as Qiandu left them in, they heard someone shouting: "Hey! This way!" Qiandu was a familiar face of Dongxi Denso's patent department.They occupied several tables, and several of them were flushed from drinking. "If you dare to ask me to pour wine, I will turn over the table and leave immediately." Zhu Mei whispered in Qian Duliu's ear.In fact, no matter which company they go to, they are often forced to pour alcohol at dinner parties. Qian Duliu guessed that today shouldn't happen, anyway, this is their farewell party. A group of people said goodbye as usual and toasted.Qianduliu looked away, taking this as part of his work, showing a friendly smile, thinking that he must be vigilant when the meeting ends.It would be embarrassing if things broke out, but if the other party dispatched personnel, there would be no future troubles.There are unexpectedly many men with this kind of thinking, and Sentoru knows this from past experience.

Gao Gongcheng sat diagonally across from her, occasionally serving food to his mouth and drinking beer from a medium glass.He usually doesn't talk much, and today he is only regarded as an audience. Qianduliu felt his gaze projected on her from time to time, she looked at him, and he looked away, she had this feeling.No way, you think too much.Qiandu warned himself. Unknowingly, the topic turned to Zhu Mei's marriage.The director, who was a little drunk, made an old-fashioned joke, saying that many male colleagues wanted to chase after Zhu Mei. "Getting married in such a turbulent year, the future is really worrying. If I give birth to a boy, I will definitely name him Tiger Boy, so that he will be honored by the Hanshin Tigers." Zhu Mei was probably also drunk, saying these words to please everyone .

"Speaking of which, I heard that Mr. Gao Gong is getting married, right?" Qian Duliu asked, paying special attention not to make his voice sound unnatural. "Well, yes..." Gao Gong seemed a little unsure how to answer. "The day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow." A man surnamed Narita sitting across from Qianduliu patted Gao Gongcheng on the shoulder and said, "The day after tomorrow, this guy's colorful single life will come to an end." "congratulations." "Thank you." Gao Gong replied in a low voice. "He, no matter what aspect he is blessed with, there is absolutely no need to congratulate him." Narita's tongue was a bit weak when he spoke.

"Where?" Although Gao Gong showed a troubled expression, he still kept smiling. "That's right, your life is really good. Hey, Miss Sanze, listen, he is obviously two years younger than me, but he already has his own house. Is there any reason for this kind of thing?" "That's not mine." "Why not? You don't have to pay rent for that apartment, right? Then what's your house called?" Narita spat, but he didn't let Gao Gong go. "That's my mother's house, I'm just borrowing it, no different from a diner." "Did you hear that? His mother has a house. Don't you think his life is good?" Narita poured wine into his glass while asking for Sentsuru's consent.After drinking it all in one breath, he continued: "Also, the apartments that people usually talk about refer to two-bedroom or three-bedroom apartments, but he doesn't. He has a whole apartment in his family, and he gets one of them. This kind of apartment Does it make sense?"

"Senior, let me go." "No, God forbids it! It's not over yet! The wife this guy is going to marry is still a beautiful woman." "Senior Narita." Gao Gong showed a helpless expression.In order to shut up Narita, he poured wine into Narita's glass. "So beautiful?" Qian Duliu asked Narita, which was exactly what she was interested in. "Pretty, pretty! Pretty enough to be a female star. Besides, you can do tea ceremony, flower arrangement, etc., right?" Narita asked Takamiya. "Uh, it's okay." "Aren't you great? English is still very good. Damn it! Why are you so lucky!"

"Okay, Narita, just wait and see, people will not be lucky all the time. Good luck will find you soon." The section chief sitting on the side said. "Oh, will it? When?" "I think it will probably be in the middle of the next century." "Fifty years from now, I don't even know if I'm still alive." Narita's words made everyone laugh.Qian Duliu also smiled, and peeked at Gao Gong, and their eyes collided for a moment.Chiduri felt that he seemed to want to say something, but this must also be an illusion. The farewell party ended at nine o'clock, and when leaving the store, Sendu Liu called Gao Gong to stop. "This is a wedding gift." She took out a small package from her bag, which she bought after get off work yesterday, "I wanted to give it to you in the company today, but I didn't have a chance."

"This...you don't need to spend money." He opened the package, and there was a blue handkerchief inside, "Thank you, I will cherish it." "Thank you for the past six months." She put her hands together in front of her and bowed her head. "I didn't do anything. But you, what are your plans for the future?" "I want to go back to my hometown to rest for a while, and return to Sapporo the day after tomorrow." "Oh..." He nodded and put away the handkerchief. "Mr. Takamiya held the wedding at a hotel in Akasaka, right? I must have been in Hokkaido by then."

"Are you leaving early in the morning?" "I'm going to stay at the hotel in Shinagawa tomorrow night, and I want to leave earlier." "Which one?" “Beautiful view of the park.” Gao Fu seemed to want to say something more when he heard the words, but a voice came from the entrance: "Hey, what are you doing? Everyone has already gone down." Gao Gong slightly raised his hand and took a step forward.Qiandu stayed behind him, thinking that he would never have a chance to see his back in the future.
