Yunding Ranch

Chapter 251
Jiang Lingyu walked on the beach, the heels of her shoes sank into the sand, and she couldn't stretch her feet immediately. She simply took off her shoes and held them in her right hand. She could clearly feel the soft sand with her bare feet. Passing through the toes and heels, wrapping both feet, the sore ankle was cushioned for a while, and the tense calf muscles were slightly relaxed.

Even if you think about the madness of tonight, it's incredible to walk from Hollywood Boulevard to Venice Beach on two feet, and she's wearing high heels.

The corner of the mouth couldn't help but raised a shallow arc, laughing at his own madness and the beauty of tonight.The passage of time and the tiredness of the feet were all forgotten in the midst of chatting and laughing, and they just talked, walked, and laughed.

Looking down at the beach, Jiang Lingyu wanted to sit down, but now that her nerves had come to her senses, exhaustion was coming in waves like a tide, and she needed to take a good rest.However, she was already embarrassed enough to be sitting on the ground in a skirt today, and the beach was an even more untimely choice.

However, when she stood at the gate of the Chinese/Chinese Theater tonight, she never thought that the end of the dinner would be here, did she?

There are not too many people on the Venice Beach at night, and you can vaguely see the noisy crowd coming and going on the street in the halo of the bright lights at the far end, but the beach has gradually quieted down, only the people who are still restless and still The hot air is slowly settling, as if you can glimpse the noise and prosperity during the day.

Standing in place, take a deep breath, the air is poured into the lungs, the heat of the day remains, mixed with the coldness of the night, the tired muscles relax little by little.

"Miss, don't you want to go into the sea?"

A surprised voice came from behind. Without turning her head, Jiang Lingyu knew it was Lu Li. She couldn't help but burst out laughing. Turning her head, she saw Lu Li standing a dozen steps behind.

He held a lantern in his left hand—literally the kind of lantern with an off-white shell that shrouded the orange candlelight inside. There was a faint gust of wind mischievously penetrated into it, and the flame began to sway. The seemingly faint ray of light slowly dispelled the surrounding darkness, and it retreated into the sea water like a tide.Quiet and turbulent.

He is holding a bamboo basket in his right hand, which looks like he is here for a picnic. The hand-woven bamboo basket is not brand new, and some black dust can be seen between the weaving gaps. It is plain and simple, covered with a A thick two-layer plaid blanket, layered on top of each other, almost filled the space between the handle and the cover.

This simple and unadorned appearance looks like it really came to the beach for a picnic.

Through the faint light of the fire, Jiang Lingyu could see the outline of Lu Li's face, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, the orange fire light dyed a layer of warmth between his brows, and then Lu Li raised his hands, He signaled to Jiang Lingyu, "Your takeaway has been delivered."

The arc of Jiang Lingyu's mouth couldn't hold back, she raised her chin arrogantly, and pointed to a place not far away, "Just put it there, boy."

Lu Li hurried up to meet him, then put down the lantern and the bamboo basket, and pulled out the plaid blanket on top. It was actually a tablecloth, a typical picnic tablecloth. Once it was spread out, the strong wind blew up the entire tablecloth. The tablecloth blew up, Lu Li hurriedly put the tablecloth down, and at the same time pressed a corner with a bamboo basket, picked up the lantern, placed it in another corner, and pressed it down.

Jiang Lingyu stepped forward and put her high heels on the third corner, finally pushing down the tablecloth; afterward, Lu Li also took off her shoes and put them on the last corner.

"Honestly, did you prepare it in advance this afternoon?" Jiang Lingyu felt that it was incredible. The lantern seemed to be a specially designed lampshade. If it was not specially prepared, it would be impossible to change it temporarily.

Lu Li laughed softly, "When you open the basket and see the menu, you will know the truth. However, I will take your words as compliments. It seems that within the limited time, I have done a good job."

Lu Li pulled out another plaid blanket and handed it to Jiang Lingyu.

This is a real blanket. Jiang Lingyu couldn't help being stunned. Lu Li explained, "The seaside is very windy. I think you need something that can block the wind. After all, your current attire doesn't seem to be able to block the wind. How about it."

Jiang Lingyu chuckled lightly, but she looked at Lu Li with more playful eyes—isn't this said to be prepared in advance?
But she still took the blanket, found a place, sat down, put the blanket on her thighs, a burst of warmth hit her tired legs, and her tense muscles followed closely After relaxing, a comfortable breath escaped from the corner of his mouth, and the pressure on his shoulders and spine was relieved.

"Thank you." Jiang Lingyu said sincerely.I didn't feel it when I was walking, but now I relax, it feels like a flood has opened, impacting every nerve in the brain.

Lu Li opened the bamboo basket, took out two bottles of beer, and handed one to Jiang Lingyu, "Other than this, there is only Coke. I'm not sure, do you have dietary regulations..."

"Beer is good. Beer is good." Jiang Lingyu repeated twice, took the beer, and found that the beer was at room temperature. Obviously, he had considered the special situation of girls. It was midsummer, and he didn't choose cold beer rashly.Small details like this are always so special.

"Our dinner options include...sandwiches, sandwiches, and sandwiches. The side dish is...salad." Lu Li began to take out the items in the basket and put them on the tablecloth one by one. "There are also potato chips."

Looking at the pile of extremely simple food on the tablecloth, not to mention rich, and even without the right to choose, Jiang Lingyu laughed directly, "Did you go to Subway?" It is a typical Subway set meal, and it is still a basic set meal.

Lu Li spread his hands, "Do you still remember what I just said?"

Next to Venice Beach, there are actually not many choices.Lu Li originally considered bringing a lot of seafood dinners here, but it was really too difficult to make an appointment at the last minute, and this is not a honeymoon resort like the Maldives, so naturally there is no corresponding supporting service.

In the end, Lu Li found a family restaurant, opened by a Mexican couple who were friendly, kind, and enthusiastic.At Lu Li's request, they specially made sandwiches and salads, and provided Lu Li with picnic baskets, blankets, and lanterns—the lanterns were placed on every table in the restaurant, making the entire restaurant look like a family. warm atmosphere.

In his haste, Lu Li really didn't have many choices.But luckily, with the help of the Mexican couple, Lu Li still completed the preparations.

"What else is there?" Jiang Lingyu poked his head curiously. To be honest, Lu Li was able to prepare so many things in a limited time.

But before Jiang Lingyu could see clearly, Lu Li covered the bamboo basket and said with a smile, "The dessert will be announced later. Let's eat the main meal first."

Jiang Lingyu was stunned, then laughed, "You mean, even if we are sitting on the beach, even if the conditions are simple, we still have to pretend that this is a high-end restaurant, right?"

"I think this is the most exclusive restaurant in the world." Lu Li looked around, "Even a billionaire can't buy such a view, such an environment, and such a space."

Looking at the endless sea, the moonlight is falling on the calm sea surface, and the thousands of stars are tilting down, there is a kind of thrilling magnificence and magnificence, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Jiang Lingyu had to admit that Lu Li's words were correct.

Looking down, Lu Li picked up the lantern and placed it in the center of the tablecloth. Due to the soft sand underneath, the lantern seemed a little unstable. Lu Li took a little time to adjust it, then put it in place, and then faced the river. Lingyu showed a bright smile, "Candlelight dinner, this is the last piece of the romantic puzzle."

Jiang Lingyu couldn't hold it back for a moment, and laughed out loud, shaking his head and summing up, "Watching the beautiful scenery, enjoying the romantic candlelight, cooked by a Michelin three-star chef, this is the world's top enjoy."

"You have also forgotten that beautiful and refined beauties and handsome men are happier than Valentine's Day and more beautiful than anniversaries. This is the only family with no semicolons and dedicated." Lu Li continued to add, which made Jiang Lingyu laughed even more happily, but before her smile calmed down, she heard Lu Li's voice continue, "Poor people always comfort themselves like this."

"Ha." I was stunned for a moment, and the laughter came directly from the chest, passed through layers of obstacles, and rang out heartily. She knew that this was very unladylike, but at this time she didn't care at all, and completely let it go. I laughed out loud.

Then, Jiang Lingyu nodded earnestly, "I agree, raise your hands and feet to express your agreement, the poor always comfort themselves like this, we have the unique candlelight dinner in the world." Then Jiang Lingyu unscrewed it Beer cap - this kind of cap is like a mineral water bottle. She didn't pretend to be a weak woman, and she couldn't even unscrew the bottle cap. Instead, she showed the boldness of a woman, opened it neatly, and then held up the beer. "A Tribute to the Poor!"

"A tribute to the poor." Lu Li also raised his own beer, and the two beer bottles touched each other lightly, making a crisp sound, and then Jiang Lingyu continued, "A tribute to Lu Li." Those sparkling eyes seemed like Filled with moonlight, he looked straight at Lu Li with a bright smile on the corner of his mouth, like a touch of rosy rouge. Then he raised the beer bottle and took a long gulp.

The corners of Lu Li's mouth also rose involuntarily. He nodded slightly, and then took a big gulp from the beer bottle.
