Chapter 7 Chapter 7 2:30 in the morning

In the movie theater, Xiao Hua took out the ring and proposed to Yue Yue.Yue Yue broke down in tears, nodded, and the audience applauded and cheered. Wan Yu looked dumbfounded, and smiled awkwardly: "Hehe, wow! So that's the case. I made a mistake. I thought it was me who was proposed. It's too embarrassing." "Your reaction just now... seems to have been struck by lightning." Zhan Bo looked at her disappointedly. "I just wasn't mentally prepared and it's fine now." "That's a normal reaction without mental preparation." Zhan Bo pointed not far away, Yue Yue was crying and hitting Xiao Hua, then kissed and hugged.

"Everyone's situation is different. I often talk nonsense after being scared." Wan Yu said weakly, "Are you...are you really planning to propose marriage just now?" "No." "That's good." Wan Yu breathed a sigh of relief. "But you called my name just now, and you said 'No, no, no, Zhanbo, I haven't figured it out yet, I really can't'." "I'm sorry, since you didn't intend to propose, just pretend that nothing happened, okay?" "No." Zhan Bo thought, am I being rejected?But I didn't do anything.Suddenly, he saw the ring on Xiaohua's chair and was shocked. Could it be that I begged for it when I fell asleep and lost my memory again?

Xiaohua, Yueyue and their relatives and friends started to celebrate, singing and playing the game "Happy Train", passing between them. "Hey, it's you. Thanks to your creativity, the service here is so thoughtful, and you even get a ring for the reservation! If I had known, I wouldn't have bought it." Xiaohua took out his own box, and Zhanbo quickly snatched the ring from the chair , into the pocket. In the living room of the apartment, Sister Yuan was watching TV. When Yifei returned from delivering the ring, Sister Yuan hurriedly inquired about the situation.

"I don't know, I can't go to the cinema, I can't see anything, so I have to ask someone to send the ring in." "Your brother proposed marriage. You were supposed to escort him outside. Why did you come back?" "Because I waited for half an hour and suddenly remembered something. Tonight is the semi-final of Wimbledon." Yifei sat down and turned the channel. "Hey, the competition has started. I especially like Deng Yaping." Yifei wiped off his sweat, "Mom, that's Li Na. Why don't you go to sleep if you don't understand? You have to board the plane tomorrow morning."

"If Zhanbo doesn't come back, I won't be able to sleep. By the way, is Wimbledon played in Wenzhou?" They watched the live broadcast and waited until two o'clock. Yifei was excited, "It seems that Zhanbo's marriage proposal was successful, and they must have gone to celebrate." "Why did the celebration take so late?" "There are many ways to celebrate, maybe...you know." "Oh?" Sister Yuan yelled, "Oh! Yifei, I saw that or something in the exhibition room just now...he didn't bring it. He didn't bring this. Something will happen tonight."

"Mom, if something goes wrong, just go wrong, because I'm afraid that Zhanbo won't dare." Yifei smiled evilly. "Are you kidding, I hope Wanyu doesn't forget." Sister Yuan walked into the exhibition room. "How could Wanyu have that, but it's okay, there are all in the hotel room." Sister Yuan came out, holding Zhanbo's wallet, "I'm talking about the wallet, what are you talking about?" Yifei said embarrassingly: "I'm talking about... wallets too. Wallets!" "Ah, you guys haven't slept yet." Meijia came out of the room to pour water.

"We are waiting for the result. Zhanbo proposed today." Yifei yawned. "Today? Are you mistaken? Last time I went with him, I didn't book a venue. I won't be able to propose until next week at the earliest." "Next week? No, if Zhanbo didn't propose tonight, where did they go? Nothing will happen, right?" Sister Yuan worried, "I've been telling you that it won't be until 2:30 in the morning." Go home, nothing will happen." "Mom, you still think of us as children, you're talking like gods and gods." "My mother seems to have said that too." Meijia nodded.

"Mothers all over the world are like this. Guan Gu's mother even fooled him into saying that there is an uncle who can read minds." Yifei smiled nonchalantly. "You guys, you don't have to believe anything else. If you don't come home at 2:30 in the morning, nothing good will happen. I'll give them a call." Sister Yuan dialed the number, prompting the other party's phone to turn off. In fact, they were not captured by the big bad wolf. They just went to a restaurant after Xiaohua's celebration and ordered a big meal.After eating and drinking, Zhan Bo completely forgot to ask Wan Yu what happened to her reaction in the theater.

"The Dutch fish balls are so bouncy, no worse than the ones we ate in Amsterdam." Zhan Bo hiccupped. "However, this fried quail with Korean pine nuts is not as good as what we eat in Pyongyang. Their quail is bigger than this." "And that time, remember the sandwich we bought by the Seine?" "Of course I remember, I was blown away by the wind on the top of the Eiffel Tower." Wan Yu smiled, "So we ate another seafood meal on the Champs Elysees." "When it comes to seafood, the best is still in Santorini." "In the afterglow of the sunset on the Aegean Sea - we missed the last boat back to Athens and ended up spending the night in church." The two laughed.

The boss came over and handed over the bill, "Thank you, the total is 520 yuan. Five twenty, understand?" "I have a heart, boss." Zhan Bo touched his pocket and frowned, "Oh no, I left my wallet at home." Wan Yu flipped through her bag and found that she didn't bring anything with her, "Hmm...excuse me, do you accept Turkish lira? I was in a hurry and took the wrong wallet." "Boss, the Turkish lira is actually very good, strong and retains its value. Or do you have any discounts such as free last payment?" Zhanbo forced a smile. "The two of you are not going to eat the overlord's meal, are you?"

"Boss, listen to our explanation." "No need, you should explain to the police!" The boss went back to the bar and picked up the phone. Zhan Bo said in a low voice: "It seems that I can only apologize to him when he comes to pay tomorrow." "tomorrow?" "Did you forget that time in Mexico?" "You mean..." "There is no other way, I count to 3," Zhan Bo took Wan Yu's hand, "1, 2, 3, run!" The boss watched them rushing into the toilet frantically, proud of himself, thinking that he was smart enough to build the gate as well as the door of the toilet. In another restaurant, the lights were bright, and there were several tables late at night, among which Yoyo and Guan Gu occupied one table, and Zi Qiao sat at the other. "Guangu, shall we go back? It's two o'clock." Yoyo yawned. "Persist for a while, and the outcome will be decided." Joe sneered at the face, "Hmph, I must be the one who waived the bill in the end." "This restaurant is too wicked. The last guest to leave is free of charge. He was just here for supper, but now it's all right. You two are in a fight. Do you think the boss is out of his mind! Procrastination is harmful to him What good." Yoyo scratched her hair. "Little aunt, don't look at how many tables are left here. In fact, most of them are on the verge of collapse just like you. Victory is in sight, yay!" "I've already collapsed! If I hadn't waited for Guan Gu, I would have gone back to sleep." Youyou suddenly looked at Ziqiao nervously, "Did you forget? Your mother said that if you don't come home at 2:30, you must be Good thing." "Don't talk about my mother. Tonight is a special case. As long as it's past 2:30, something good will happen!" After a while, the clock on the wall showed half past two, and there were only two tables left in the store. "There were quite a lot of people just now, and they disappeared in an instant. Is there really a legend about half past two?!" Zi Qiao sipped her drink leisurely. "I'm too sleepy...well, Zi Qiao, you win, waiter, I'll pay first!" Guan Gu stood up. "Hahaha, I finally won! I'm the last one! I-free-bill! Waiter, give him the bill, I'm the winner, yo! yo! yo! yo!" The waiter came over and said, "Here is your bill, please pay in full." "why?" "If you leave, that gentleman is the winner tonight!" The waiter pointed to another table, where a guest was sleeping on a chair, woke up and sat up. "Where did this thing come from?" Zi Qiao sat down on the ground in despair. Youyou shook her head, "You two are so boring. Your mother is right, if you don't come home at 2:30 in the morning, nothing good will happen!" "Impossible! If you don't go home at 2:30 in the morning, something good will happen! Now that we have passed this point, we should continue to take risks. Tonight will definitely be very ecstasy." Guan Gu looked at him sadly, "I remember the last time I didn't go home at 2:30, I spent the night with you in the detention center. It was so ecstasy." "Then it seems that I can only go to the '2:30 Club' by myself, a mysterious place, only stars, celebrities, high-end people and handsome men and women are allowed to enter. I still know the evil path clearly , that unremarkable little door, and that incredible light." Zi Qiao was excited. Youyou hesitated and said: "Although what you described is indeed very attractive, but..." "Honey, he didn't describe anything specific!" Ziqiao walked to the door, "This is the magical place of this club. All descriptions are pale, and you will only know when you go there." "Okay, I'll leave as soon as I go in. I just do this to prove that this club is definitely not as good as you said, and what my mother said is right!" "Zi Qiao, I also declare that I don't believe that there is something that cannot be described in words. I will definitely be able to describe it in standard Chinese for you to see!" The two happily followed Zi Qiao. Yifei received Zhanbo's distress call and promised to bring money to redeem them immediately. "What did I say, after 2:30, only the home is safe." Sister Yuan pulled Yifei back, "Recently, I heard that there are often incidents of taxi ether in the middle of the night. Girls are especially dangerous. You should let the boys go." "It's okay, Mom, how about I drive Zeng Xiaoxian's car, so you can rest assured." "Auntie, I'll go with Yifei." Meijia followed her out. On the elevated late at night, Yifei was driving, and Meijia was sitting beside her, studying the manual. "Have you brought a map? I'm not sure... where exactly is this road?" Meijia shook her head, picked up the manual, and exclaimed: "Hey! According to the manual, this car has on star! You can connect to the customer center with just one button, and the whole process of voice will help you solve the problem! But... this legendary omnipotent Where is the button?" Yifei waited for a while and said, "Did you find it? Do you think we should go down this ramp?" "Don't go down! Believe me." Yifei continued to move forward according to his words. When the car missed the ramp, Mika spoke again, "I guess there must be a lot of red lights on the way down. It's so cool to drive on the elevated road." Yifei was sweating, "...What if I missed it?" "When I find that button, I'm afraid I won't be able to find that restaurant? Besides, it's not your gasoline, let it go." "That makes sense!" Yifei smiled and stepped on the gas pedal. Poor Zhanbo and Wanyu were still waiting for them in the restaurant, and the boss stood by with a stick. "I fled here from the United States three years ago, and dozens of bodyguards couldn't catch me. Even if I was killed, I would never guess that we would be locked up here three years later." Wan Yu sighed. "Then have you ever thought about where we will be three years from now?" "I may be in Barcelona in three years, but not necessarily. It may be Madrid, Florence, or Milan. I don't know. I submitted applications to the fashion design schools in these cities." Zhan Bo was stunned, "...Really?" "During this trip, we have seen many other people's worlds, and I am more sure that the life I want should be free and without a fixed place. Every day has new scenery and new adventures." Wan Yu said seriously, "I I used to be a fashion editor, and suddenly one day, I found that I don’t want to comment on other people’s designs anymore, why can’t I try it myself. Maybe this is the career I like, and it allows me to find my new value.” "Why didn't you tell me?" "I asked you when I was traveling, in Amsterdam, on the banks of the Seine, and in the churches of Santorini. We were having a good time, and there were endless topics to talk about, so you may not pay attention. Actually these questions are not If you insist on discussing a result, it will be the same today." Zhan Bo shook his head and said, "No, since we can't go anywhere now, why don't we explain the future clearly." "In the future, which day is the future? Anyway, it's not today. I haven't received the admission notice from the School of Design, so it's still early. Besides, you haven't proposed to me yet." "You...you never thought about getting married." Zhan Bo said sadly. "I just feel like... before I can settle down and find a suitable life partner, I have to find myself." Just as Zhanbo was about to speak, the boss came and interrupted them, "Are your friends still coming? I don't have time to spend with you, it's closing time." "Are you going to let us go?" Wan Yu said happily. "Dream, bet your valuables here. A dead phone doesn't count." The boss wanted to touch Zhanbo's trouser pocket, and Zhanbo backed away. "It's really gone." "What are you covering without? Did you steal something?" "Forget it, show the boss, otherwise you won't be able to explain clearly." Wan Yu reached out, took out a ring, and covered her mouth in surprise. "This is the engagement ring I originally prepared for you." Zhan Bo was frustrated. They redeemed themselves with rings, returned to the apartment wearily, and sat on the sofa. "When... did you buy it?" Wan Yu glanced at him. "When I was in Hong Kong. In fact, I planned to propose on the plane back to China. Unfortunately, I thought too simply." "Zhanbo, I'm sorry. I thought you just wanted to talk to me about your ideals and the future, that's why I told you that. I really didn't know you were asking for marriage." Zhan Bo took her hand, "Wan Yu, why don't you go to Barcelona, ​​Madrid or Milan? Stay and we plan a new life together." "Zhanbo, I don't know when to get married right now. I still have a lot of things to do." Seeing his sad expression, Wan Yu quickly said, "But I believe that if you want to choose someone to spend the rest of your life with me , that person—it must be you." "If we are still together in three years, will you marry me?" Zhan Bo waited for a while, Wan Yu nodded. Zhan Bo jumped up excitedly, "Are you agreeing to my marriage proposal?" "I... I don't know either." Wan Yu lowered her head hesitantly. "It doesn't matter, I have already missed two marriage proposals, and I will never miss it again this time. My God, the ring is still with the boss! I have to borrow some money to redeem it. Don't sleep, wait for me!" He rushed into the rooms and found only his mother was home. "I heard it all just now, take it." Sister Yuan handed over the wallet, "Don't be nervous, son." "No, how could it be." Zhan Bo laughed dryly and turned to cry, "Mom, what should I do? Is she comforting me, or is she guilty, or is she comforting me?" Sister Yuan pulled him to sit down, "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. There are always differences between people. Marriage is different from love. The two of you are in a closed space all the time, and you can't get out or get in." You always have to face those differences." "Like when we were locked up in that restaurant?" "Some orders cannot be escaped. You have to buy them sooner or later. You need to prepare more than rings for marriage. There are many more. Son, think about it carefully." Ziqiao was also at the entrance of the club, trying to figure out how to get in, but the security guards stopped them aggressively. "There are too many people today, I can't openly specialize. Brother Security is also thinking about the overall situation, which is understandable." Zi Qiao forced a smile. "It's useless, let me tell him! Dude, let's go in..." Yoyo stepped forward. "Are you... Zhou Xun?" What kind of eyes? Youyou was startled secretly, pretending to be hoarse, "You have seen it all, don't make it public, I don't want too many people to know." "Please come in!" The security guard opened the door, and a golden light was released, shining on everyone's faces, and walked in with longing expressions. Guan Gu stepped forward aggressively, "I'm a manga artist. I ignored my family business and the Japanese manga market and came to China alone. I thought the Chinese people were very friendly, but now I'm being treated like this! Believe it or not, I won't be able to do it for a minute." I'll show you the seppuku!" "Don't, I'm afraid of you." The security guard opened the door to let Guan Gu in, and waved away Zi Qiao who was following behind.Zi Qiao landed next to the trash can, howling, is it really all right? Yifei and Meijia drove the car to a dark place, a straight road with no street lights and no cars coming. "Meijia, have you finished with that star? If we continue to drive, I'm afraid that even the satellites won't be able to find us." Yifei stopped the car. "This place is too scary. There are no street lights. Why don't we turn around." Meijia tugged on Yifei's clothes. Yifei started the car, but the car did not move, and the indicator light showed that there was no gasoline. "Damn, it turns out that my mother's hunch was right. If you don't come home at 2:30 in the morning, nothing good will happen." Find someone for help, Meijia took out her mobile phone to call the program hotline, and cried to Xiaoxian. Xiaoxian said softly: "Listener, I am very sorry for what happened to you. In fact, emotions are the same as driving. You often get lost or break down. Don't worry, you will always think of your loyal old friend—Zeng Xiaoxian." "How long are you going to keep making sarcastic remarks?" Yifei was furious. "Although I am your most reliable friend, don't forget that I am also a very dedicated radio host, and I still have many listeners who can't let go." Yifei added lightly: "Zeng Xiaoxian, I forgot to tell you, we are driving your new car." "What... what?!" "If we don't come back, we may die with your car." "Dear listeners, please enjoy a long, long, long piece of music. I'll be right back." Xiaoxian took off his earphones and rushed out of the live broadcast room. Zhan Bo sat in the room, silent, thinking carefully, if he was really so determined, would he not have exchanged the ring for freedom just now?In this way, Wan Yu's choice is also correct, freedom may really be important. Sister Yuan patted him and said, "Son, are you okay?" "If I'm still here in three years...if we're still together in three years...'if' is just an excuse for us to avoid our differences, I promised Wanyu that she would be free to choose what she wants like a princess The way of life, I can’t go back on my word.” Zhanbo completely ignored his mother, turned to the corner and said to himself, “At the beginning Wanyu came to the iPartment to avoid the blind date, but in fact, she has never changed, she has ideas, loves to take risks, and I love her. She is also because of these, I can't blame her because the plot is different from what I thought, no one has the right to say that her decision was a mistake! In fact... we have already made a choice!" Sister Yuan went to pat him again, Zhan Bo woke up startled, and rushed out of the room. In the living room, Wan Yu was holding a phone in his hand. "Wan Yu, I want to ask you a question." Wan Yu smiled and said, "You want to ask, when I get the ring, will I still keep what I promised you?" "No, if you really want to study and experience life, I shouldn't stop you." "Really? But I'm not sure now." Wan Yu hesitated, "Just now, I answered a phone call from the Milan Institute of Design. In fact, they called several times. Because of the time difference, I Missed it all the time, but today... I received it." "The results of it?" "I...passed. I just promised you but I got a call again. I don't know what to do." Zhan Bo pulled her and said, "This is a good thing." "Why don't I feel that at all, now I'm in a mess, should I cry or laugh?" "You're laughing, Wanyu." "Have it?" Zhanbo smiled and nodded, "Since everything has come to a conclusion, it seems that we have no disagreements. I originally wanted to ask you, would you be happy if I supported you to go to Milan?" Wan Yu looked at him in surprise, and Zhan Bo hugged her, "Wan Yu, if you decide, I will too. I am willing to go with you!" The sky outside the window is blue-gray, and the night is almost over.
