After leaving the Chuyan Temple Hotel, the group arrived at a nearby restaurant under Shoko Nakajimaâs lead.
Near Lake Kawaprada was a long street.
This place was more like a local snack street, but it was better built, was larger, and had the characteristics of Sunrise Land.
However, there was one thing that was basically the same.
The prices of goods here were extremely high. The same item was basically five to six times more expensive than the outside.
After all, this was a tourist area. If they didnât rip off the tourists, who would?
Fortunately, the taste of the food was passable. In addition, the few of them were not short of money, so they naturally did not care about the price.
Because they won more than 40 million yen, Liang Jinming booked out the entire venue.
During this time, they even invited Ji Qingyan and He Yuanyuan. However, the latter were planning to go with Tian Yan to watch the fireworks show tonight, so they did not join.
Attending dinner parties with men and going shopping with women are generally the activities both sides dislike the most about each other.
If there was no special reason, they would naturally not participate.
This was exactly what Lin Yi and the others wanted. After all, Qiu Yuluo and the other two were still here.
However, even if the girl came, he was not afraid. He could just say that Qin Yuluo and gang were Qin Hanâs friends.
Because Liang Jinming had already found Shoko Nakajima, Qin and Han had to take the blame.
Shoko Nakajima was surprised to see that Liang Jinming had ordered a table full of food.
âDo you really need so many dishes?â
âIs it a lot?â Liang Jinming said, â1 just ordered it casually. This is not considered a lot. Itâs mostly to snack on while drinking.â
âYou guys probably havenât experienced the real life of citizens in Sunrise Land, right?â Jiang Qing asjed.
âWhat are you on about?â
âThe lives of ordinary people in Sunrise Land ordinary people face a lot of life pressures. Thatâs why many men go to izakayas after work, order just a few skewers of food, and then get a pot of sake. This way, they can drink for a long time. Unlike in our country, no matter whether they have money or not, when entertaining friends, they order a lot of food. They wonât bother filling their stomachs over here.â
âThis is also why the average figure of the people from Sunrise Land is thinner than ours.â
âThat makes sense.â Liang Jinming held his wine glass. âLetâs not talk about anything else for now. Everything has already been ordered, so letâs just start.â
The meal soon began. Although their identities were different, it did not stop them from drinking together.
This was because they all had a common identity. They were all rich children.
After all, Jiang Qing, who had the least net worth, was already worth more than a billion yuan. In Huaxia, she was considered a moderately rich person.
When the meal first began, everyone started seriously discussing investments. They kept throwing out figures reaching hundreds of millions of yuan. At first glance, it looked like an investor conference.
However, halfway through the drinks, the alcohol kicked in. By then, everyone let themselves go and revealed their true appearances.
They started playing games of finger-guessing, dirty jokes, and Werewolf?. It was a fun game.
Coupled with Shoko Nakajimaâs performance, the atmosphere became even more lively.
âF*ck, everyone says that the sake in Sunrise Land is weak. Why did I get drunk without drinking much?â Liang Jinming muttered.
âBrother Liang, no matter how low the alcohol content is, itâs still stronger than our beer. If you drink glass after glass, youâll definitely get drunk,â Jiang Qing said with a smile.
âHis alcohol tolerance is not good to begin with. This has nothing to do with alcohol,â Gao Zongyuan said.
âNext time you come out, you can just sit at the girlsâ table.â
âF*ck, in terms of drinking, Iâm not bested by anyone but Brother Lin. Continue!â
âCome, come, come. If 1 donât get you drunk today, my surname wonât be Gao.â
Ring ring ring!
Lin Yiâs phone rang at this moment. It was a call from Ji Qingyan.
âYou guys drink first. Iâll go out and make a call.â
After saying goodbye, Lin Yi walked out.
It was already early in the morning, but the lights outside the room were still brightly lit. Under the clear moonlight, one could clearly see the shadow of Mount Huji.
âAre you guys still drinking?â Ji Qingyan asked over the phone.
âMhm, itâll probably be a while before I go back.â
âHehe, if you make me wait a little longer, you wonât have a chance with me tonight. Yuanyuan wants to sleep with me.â
âIs there something wrong with He Yuanyuanâs womanâs sexual orientation? Why is she always crawling into your bed?â
âShe just wants to have private conversations,â Ji Qingyan said with a grin.
âIf you donât come back in 20 minutes, you can sleep with Gao tonight.â
âAlright, you should rest first. Otherwise, you might have to wait for a while.â
âI donât fuss about you while youâre out, but donât drink too much. Itâs bad for your health.â
âDonât worry, I know what Iâm doing.â
After chatting with Ji Qingyan for a while, Lin Yi hung up and prepared to rejoin the group.
However, as soon as he turned around, he realized that Shoko Nakajima was standing behind him.
âWhy did you come out too?â
Shoko Nakajima rubbed her temples. âIâm not feeling well. I came out to take a breather. Mr. Lin, how are you? You seem to have drunk a lot. Are you feeling well?â
âIâm alright.â Lin Yi said casually.
âIf youâre not feeling well, you can sit outside for a while and get some air.â
Shoko Nakajima grabbed the corner of her shirt and bit her lip.
âMr. Lin, can you accompany me for a while?â
âAlright, weâll continue drinking when we go back in anyway. Letâs get some fresh air before we go back.â
âThank you, Mr. Lin.â
The two of them walked slowly along the path in front of the restaurant. Not far away was Kawaprada Lake.
The light elongated their figures as they slowly walked out of the range of the bar. Shoko Nakajima pointed at a bench not far away and said.
âMr. Lin, letâs go sit there for a while.â
Lin Yi nodded and the two of them walked away. They sat side by side on the bench and looked at the starlight reflected by the lake. Their moods instantly improved.
Shoko Nakajima took the initiative to lean on Lin Yiâs shoulder, looking at the calm lake like a couple.
The sky and water, man and man, formed a quiet and beautiful scene.
Even though the two of them were not in a relationship, there was no sense of awkwardness.
âMr. Lin, did you come to Sunrise Land for fun?â Shoko Nakajima asked softly.
âYeah.â
âThen how long will he stay here? When will he go back?â
âTheyâll be leaving the day after tomorrow. This time, we are here on a company trip, so we canât stay here for too long.â
âMr. Lin, you can stay here. I can bring you to continue visiting other places in Sunrise Land.â
âNo, there are still many things I have to handle back home Iâll just have fun for a few more days and relax.â
âOh, okay.â
Shoko Nakajima looked disappointed.
âIf I have the chance to go to Huaxia in the future, can I look for Mr. Lin? But donât misunderstand. I donât have the intention of ruining your relationship with Madam.â
Lin Yi smiled. âDonât worry, I didnât think too much about it. If you can really visit, Iâll gladly receive you.â
âThank you, Mr. Lin.â Shoko Nakajima smiled.
âActually, I also know that you might not be here for long, so I have something to say to you.â
âWhat might that be?â
âMr. Lin, I like you.â
