After finishing speaking, he ignored me whose expression became very exciting, and that person left in a hurry.

As for me, I stood there blankly, thinking about that person's words with some confusion, lamenting how fast this city has changed.

"The uncle who opened the shop said that he only opened the shop for two years..."

I still vaguely remember how the uncle was busy in the store with his wife.Although it seems very bitter and tiring, he once told me that as long as they can persist in staying here for a few years, the life of their children who have not yet gone to school will be much better in the future.At least, you won't be bothered by too much money.

But only a year has passed, and their shop has closed...Maybe it's poor management, maybe there's a better job, maybe...some other reason .In short, like many people who come to this city trying to gain a foothold, they seem to have failed.

"call......"

Shaking my head, I turned the unhappiness in my heart into a foul breath and exhaled out of my body, and stopped a passing taxi.

"Master, please go to Sichuan Restaurant."

"Chuannei restaurant? The one in the east alley?"

"Well, please excuse me."

"Ok~~~~"

When you are in a bad mood, go to acquaintances for a drink.

Looking at the rapidly receding scenery outside the window, I thought so.

------------

After nine o'clock in the evening, Chuannei Restaurant.

I opened the door of a restaurant I hadn't seen for a long time, and walked in unhurriedly.

"Oh! Welcome - what, is it you?"

"Hehe, don't you look very busy tonight?"

"Ah, it's usually full at this time, but today there's no one there... What, do you want a drink?"

As he said, apart from the store manager, there are only me and a few waiters in the store, which is very deserted.

Facing the boss who made no secret of his disappointment, I nodded with a smile and said, "Ah, if possible, I also hope that the store manager will accompany me."

"...Okay, I have nothing to do anyway, let's have a drink or two with you!"

As if he noticed something, the store manager gave me a hearty smile, then took a bottle of good wine from under the counter, and walked quickly to the empty table in the corner.

"What are you still doing in a daze? Come over and drink! Although you have a stomach problem, the alcohol content is not high, and it even nourishes the stomach, so drink whatever you want!"

"Oh? Thank you very much, Mr. Store Manager."

Could it be that he deliberately took out the good wine from his collection to drink with me?I didn't expect this store manager to be a better person than I imagined.

If that's the case, maybe I can drink some wine after a long absence tonight?

"A while ago I was hospitalized because of stomach bleeding. Since Mr. Manager has such good wine, I'm not welcome!"

"......Wait a moment."

The store manager's expression changed suddenly, and he greeted a waiter, then put the wine bottle into his hand and whispered a few words to him, and the waiter took the wine away cautiously.

...what the hell?

"Okay, let's not drink tonight, just chat, how about it?"

"Hey, hey! Mr. store manager!? What about the high-quality wine you promised? Why did you take it back all of a sudden!!"

"Isn't it because you don't know how to take care of your body, and even have stomach bleeding!! If I give you another drink, I will become a murderer!!"

"Tsk... at least one cup—"

"Not even one bite! Give me up! As an older single man in his thirties, don't spoil your most important capital!"

"Gee...Damn it!!"

When I recover my body, I must drink up all your good wine!You bald uncle!

But... the uncle is also thinking about it, when the time comes to find him for a drink, it's better to bring something good.

After a while, the waiter brought all the food over.If you take a closer look, all of them are the store manager's specialty dishes.

"Manager, what is this?"

"Just now, I wanted to have a tooth offering with them. When you come, let's eat with you. I will make it for them later."

"Hehe...then, I'm not polite."

"Eat it, eat it, Rory, you're so wordy, how can you find a partner!"

"I want you to take care of it."

In the deserted restaurant, the undisguised laughter between me and the store manager gradually spread to the outside world.

The slight unhappiness that existed in my heart was also swept away.

After you go back, start preparing for the mission of going to school.

"By the way, Li Jun, I don't know if you've heard of one thing."

"Ah? What's the matter?"
