West coast

Chapter 9 Chocolate

Today's itinerary in Napa is booked for a hot air balloon ride, and we must gather at 04:30.

Lin Nan and Qin Chuan drank together last night and chatted until two o'clock in the morning. Both bottles of red wine were drunk to the bottom.

The alarm at four o'clock rang, Lin Nan barely opened his eyes, his mouth was dry, his headache was splitting, he turned his head and saw that the person beside him was still asleep.

Dizzy, dizzy, dizzy.

"Wait a minute, no, why is he here?" Lin Nan thought.

Lin Nan got up with a jerk.He tried to remember what happened yesterday.

The memory came to life hazily, the drink vending machine in the corridor, the canned laughter of Friends on TV, the empty red wine bottle, the five legends of Qin Chuan, and then...

Lin Nan touched his clothes subconsciously, they were still there, and breathed a sigh of relief.

He slowly pulled back the quilt, revealing Qin Chuan's forehead, thick eyebrows, eyes, and tall and thin bridge of nose bit by bit, obviously still in a deep sleep.

Lin Nan pushed him, Qin Chuan wanted to lift his heavy eyelids, declared failure, then turned over and hugged Lin Nan in his arms.

Lin Nan opened his eyes wide, entangled like a mummy and unable to move.He tried with all his strength to push Qin Chuan away.As a result, Qin Chuan's thigh climbed directly onto Lin Nan's waist, hugging him even tighter.

Lin Nan had no choice but to shout, "Qin Chuan! Wake up! We're going to take the hot air balloon, we're going to be late!"

As soon as Qin Chuan heard the hot air balloon, he gradually regained consciousness.

Qin Chuan closed his eyes and asked, "What time is it?"

Lin Nan: "There is still half an hour to gather downstairs."

The sound of colleagues opening and closing doors came from the corridor, and everyone walked to the lobby to gather one after another.They were still full of alcohol at the moment.

"What should I do? Don't let them see you go out of my room." Lin Nan was anxious, although they were just drinking and chatting, they were too tired, so they fell asleep.But being seen by colleagues coming out of a room in the morning, I really couldn't wash it off even if I jumped into the Mississippi River.

Qin Chuan was inexplicably amused when he saw Lin Nan's bewildered look.Obviously nothing happened, why do you look so guilty.

Qin Chuan said unhurriedly: "It's okay, you go down first. When everyone arrives, you send me a text message, and I will go down secretly. That's fine, no one will find out."

Lin Nan thought for a while and felt that this was the only way to go.But why is Qin Chuan so calm and skillful about "cheating"?Thinking of the five legends about him last night, I shuddered.

Lin Nan quickly took a shower and went out.While exchanging greetings with colleagues in the hall, he quietly counted the number of people who came, and when everyone was there, he sent a text message to Qin Chuan.

After Qin Chuan received Lin Nan's text message, he "arrived too late", apologized to everyone with a smile, and then exchanged glances with Lin Nan quickly.

A group of people finally set off.

The huge hot air balloon was slowly filled by the blower and inflated bit by bit, and then the staff used flames to heat the air inside, and finally the balloon was hung upright, with three patterns and colorful colors.Everyone climbed into the basket.The pilot half-jokingly warned everyone not to climb out in mid-air after climbing in, and then dropped the sandbag, and the hot air balloon left the ground and slowly lifted into the air.

The temperature in the morning was relatively low, and everyone was shivering from the cold.Only the overhead burners emit heat.The hot air balloon moved slowly along the direction of the wind, and the sky gradually brightened. The roads, fields, grape trellises and villages on the ground were intricate, as unreal as a model.

Half an hour later, the sun showed its face and the sunrise began.The first ray of sunshine in early winter rose from the distant fields, shining gently on people's faces, and the entire Napa Valley was in sight at this moment. Lin Nan looked into the distance and cried out excitedly.The temperature is also gradually rising, not so cold.In the breeze and sunrise, Qin Chuan turned his head and looked at Lin Nan's profile fondly.For a long time, I haven't seen such a childlike smile on Lin Nan's face.He raised his mobile phone, clicked on Lin Nan's face, and took a photo.

Wenwen, who was traveling with her, noticed this move.

—————————————————————————————————————————— (I am the dividing line)

After escaping from the restaurant, Wang Yiding was still in shock.He poured himself a glass of water, but when he lifted the mug, his hand was still shaking.

It's not real, it must be a nightmare!

His big beauty, the girlfriend he officially announced everywhere, and the wife he longed for in a wedding dress, turned out to be played by Alex? !

No no no, that's impossible, he kept shaking his head trying to get the memory of tonight out of his mind.He turned on the phone and looked at the photo of the goddess, ah, she was still so gentle.Tilting his head, with a smile in his eyes, how could this be the Alex who was dressed in the rebellious youth look?What are you kidding? !

In addition to being frightened, a wave of anger also surfaced at the same time.

Looking at the profile picture, Wang Yiding thought, Alex, I have no grievances with you, why are you cheating on me!

He revisited his previous chat history, and now every message seems to be mocking himself.He opened the option in the upper right corner angrily, and the red frame of "Delete Contact" came into view.Wang Yiding struggled for a long time, but he couldn't press the "OK" button with his thumb.

He sighed and gave up.

No sleep for one night.

At work the next day, Wang Yiding was like a deflated balloon.The heart has been cursing.

Why is there always a traffic jam on Highway 101? It's usually sunny, but today's weather is gloomy.

It's really unlucky, another car changed lanes without turning on the lights, the stock price fell, and I couldn't find a parking space when I arrived at the company.

As soon as I turned on the computer, there were twenty unread emails, and I didn't want to open any of them.

Colleagues are talking about wineries and hot air balloons in Napa, but I can't get in the conversation at all.

Meetings are also irrelevant reports, which delay my time.

......

After finally making it to lunch time, Wang Yiding walked towards the restaurant with heavy steps.

As a last resort, he ran into Alex.Surrounded by resentment, Wang Yiding walked up to Alex and slammed the table three times.

"Come out with me," Wang Yiding said.

Alex knew what was supposed to come would come, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.He asked his colleagues to say hello, and followed Wang Yiding out of the restaurant.

Alex is ready.

If Wang Yiding scolded him to vent his anger, he would apologize and treat it as a prank.

If Wang Yiding wanted to beat him, he would call for help and security.

If Wang Yiding cried, he would pat his brother on the shoulder and comfort him: "There is an old saying that life is like a box of chocolates, you never know whether the next one will be a man or a woman."

So many if statements have been written, he just waits for the opponent to play a card, and then executes accordingly.Now that you've made enough preparations, you don't have to be so anxious.

Wang Yiding stared at Alex, put his hands on his waist, and frowned, trying to retrieve the words in his mind, so as to express the thousands of words in his heart.

Wang Yiding: "A real man must be brave!"

Alex: "???"

Wang Yiding: "What you owe me, you have to pay back!"

Alex: "Uh... that restaurant is very expensive. I have to pay when I leave, but they say you left your credit card and won't let me pay. See how I transfer money to you, check or electronic transfer. I can do it."

Wang Yiding: "I didn't mean that!"

Alex thought to himself, it's over, this straight man doesn't want money, is it because he wants me...flesh payment?Fuck, take advantage of the fire to rob? !

Wang Yiding continued: "It's all because of you, which caused me to boast in front of my circle of friends and colleagues that I will bring my family with me when the company holds an event next time."

Alex: "I heard you say, hahahaha...haha...ha..." Halfway through laughing, seeing Wang Yiding's face turn blue, he quickly stopped laughing.

Wang Yiding: "It's going to be a holiday party soon, if I don't have a girlfriend, I will be laughed at!"

Alex ventriloquism: "Then who can you blame? We haven't established a relationship yet, so you just spread the word everywhere." But thinking about it, I did have the slightest intention to push things along.

Wang Yiding: "You must be my girlfriend! Otherwise, I will never be able to hold my head up again in this company."

Alex was in a hurry: "Not everyone has bad eyesight, I will be recognized."

Wang Yiding: "I don't care, I must have a female companion that day!"
