Not long after meeting Luo Jianing in the amusement park last time, Shen Yanbing received an invitation from the other party.

The reason is to come out to relax, and the place is a bar called "Time" that Shen Yanbing used to go to.

She glanced at Li Mingyue who was practicing calligraphy, and suddenly realized that she had indeed not been in touch with her past friends for a while.

At the dinner table, Shen Yanbing was eating noodles, Zhu Chopsticks looked up at Li Mingyue.

"I'm going out tonight. I don't know when I'll be back. You should go to bed early."

"Okay." Li Mingyue responded, her eyes fluttered and she wanted to ask something, but she still didn't speak.

Now she no longer had the initial resistance and anxiety about staying alone in a modern home, and now that she was studying urgently, although she was curious about Shen Yanbing's going out, she still didn't ask anything after all.

Li Mingyue noticed that the other party's attire when going out was no longer as casual or concise as in the past, she had put on makeup, and her clothes were not unusual, but there was a sense of specialness that could not be described.

Anyone who is a modern person with some experience will understand that the place Shen Yanbing is going to or the person he is going to meet must be unusual.

But if Shen Yanbing said it himself, it was really nothing special.

The location of Qingba is not far away but it is a bit out of the way. It is troublesome to find a parking space back and forth, so she simply went out and took a taxi.

The lights are dim, the background music is soft, there are no crowds of people or demons dancing wildly. This is a famous les bar in the West District of Bencheng.

Luo Jianing had been waiting for her for a long time. As soon as Shen Yanbing opened the door, his eyes were attracted by the raised arms, and he followed the direction and sat next to her.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I'm afraid you're going to let me go!"

Luo Jianing was mixing drinks by herself in front of the bar. Her girlfriend stood across from her and looked at her with a smile on her face. Shen Yanbing reacted for a while before realizing that the other party was the new bartender of this store.

Shen Yanbing put the bag aside, did not turn over the wine list, and said directly: "A glass of soda water is enough."

"Please!" Luo Jianing really felt that she was not giving face, looking at his girlfriend, "Give her a glass of whiskey!"

"Farewell." Shen Yanbing waved his hands and sighed with a smile, "Gin and Tonic is fine."

The bartender quickly started to move, and Luo Jianing pulled her to chat, and it happened to Li Mingyue.

"I haven't seen you take it out to play before?"

"It's not from this circle."

Shen Yanbing was helpless, Luo Jianing leaned over the bar and looked at his girlfriend's hands, not believing it, "The way people look at you is obviously different."

Shen Yanbing was speechless, of course she was aware of Li Mingyue's concern for her, but it was not in love at the beginning.

She is an ancient person, newcomer here, so it is normal to rely on her a little bit.

Shen Yanbing couldn't explain to Luo Jianing, took a sip of the cocktail, and suddenly saw a familiar figure sitting in the opposite corner while looking at it.

That person also looked at her suddenly, and the two eyes met and then quickly staggered.

"You asked me out today just to chat?" Shen Yanbing's eyes fell on Luo Jianing, her tone seemed casual.

Luo Jianing didn't dare to look at her, and muttered in a low voice: "No, I still have the bartending skills to meet my girlfriend~"

Shen Yanbing smiled, but the bartender's girlfriend pointed in that direction with an apologetic face, "Jia Ning was tortured too much, forgive me."

Shen Yanbing restrained her expression and drank ice wine for a long time. When she drank the glass, the familiar figure sat beside her.

"Two glasses of Long Island iced tea."

The voice was deeper and hoarse than usual.

Shen Yanbing raised his head, Xu Nuo's calm eyes were deep and unwavering.

She smiled: "Have a drink with me?"

"No." Shen Yanbing shook the ice cubes in the glass, bowed his head and stopped talking.

Luo Jianing lay there, not daring to move, and took a while to poke his head: "You guys... I'll go first."

After speaking, he shrank directly to the corner.

Xu Nuo took a cup of Long Island Iced Tea, put it in front of Shen Yanbing, and took a cup for himself to sip.

Shen Yanbing did not move.

"Remember the first time we met?"

Xu Nuo was in a trance, asking and answering, "It's also here, you are in a bad mood, I ordered a cup of Long Island iced tea for you."

The lyrics sang "Take Long Island Iced Tea for me to sleep peacefully at midnight", but Long Island Iced Tea is an absolute strong drink. It is not impossible to sleep until the next night, let alone half a night.

Both of them can drink well, and they met their bosom friends that night and chatted very happily.

Shen Yanbing actually doesn't remember much.

Xu Nuo was shaking the wine glass in his hand, and suddenly leaned over to touch her, making a crisp sound.

Shen Yanbing still didn't move, and gave her indifferent eyes.

Xu Nuo seemed to be a little drunk, the taste of Long Island Iced Tea was lingering, she looked at Shen Yanbing's side face, and said in a daze, "You don't love me."

Shen Yanbing frowned, put down the gin and tonic that he didn't drink much, and was about to leave, but was suddenly grabbed by the other party——

"Shen Yanbing."

Xu Nuo was panicking, so he found an excuse: "...you still have something at my house."

"Throw it away." Shen Yanbing replied casually, breaking away her hand and preparing to leave.

Xu Nuo closed his eyes, and slammed into her arms, leaning his head on her shoulder, and many familiar people around looked over, Shen Yanbing pulled her away, but Xu Nuo persisted, "Are you There is no new lover."

Shen Yanbing pushed her away, rubbed between her brows: "Don't pretend to be drunk."

Xu Nuo weakly approached the bar seat and sat down, his eyes drooping, "Let's chat?"

Shen Yanbing glanced at the time, and saw a few friends who made eye contact with her - she hadn't had time to say hello to them since she came in.

She didn't intend to leave so soon.

Shen Yanbing sat down and drank the last bit of gin at the bottom of the glass, leaving only crackling ice cubes.

The two actually had nothing to say, but with so many people watching, Shen Yanbing didn't want to make the scene too ugly.

"You seem to be a different person." Xu Nuo lowered his head, as if recalling the past, "Since when did you become impatient with me?"

Shen Yanbing sighed in her heart, she thought she was very patient with Xu Nuo, but no amount of patience would be wiped out by repeated advances.

Ms. Xu did whatever she wanted, not replying to messages, playing and disappearing, these are common operations, and she always pursued a thrill - Luo Jianing and others were almost surprised when they knew that the two were together.

Fortunately, Xu Nuo was a different person afterwards, and they were even more surprised by his thoughtfulness and sensibility, and they should also attribute the credit to Shen Yanbing.

Shen Yanbing is not a playful person, and there are not many people who come to clean up, so it is naturally difficult for others to know her mental journey in this year.

The Long Island iced tea that Xu Nuo ordered for her remained untouched.

"Do I have a bad personality?" Xu Nuo turned his head to stare at Shen Yanbing, under the chandelier, his eyes that always radiated confidence were rarely confused.

Shen Yanbing didn't make a sound, her answer was not important.

"You are too indifferent." Xu Nuo didn't know what to think, and suddenly began to accuse her, "Anyway, as long as I do something that doesn't meet your wishes, you will immediately start to lose points in your heart."

She stared closely at Shen Yanbing, "Everyone says you are gentle and considerate, but you can't tolerate even a little flaw in your partner."

"It was I who proposed the breakup, but the one who really wants to break up, isn't it you?"

The more Xu Nuo drank, the more sober he seemed.

The temperature of the ice soaked her thoughts, and the words that had been entangled in her heart for so long poured out naturally.

Shen Yanbing finally looked at her squarely, and said in a flat tone, "Let's not meet again."

After finishing speaking, she got up and left, leaving behind a sip of the long island iced tea at the bar.

It was raining outside.

The rain in Bincheng really came as soon as it was said, and there was no sign at all. Shen Yanbing looked at the time, and the actual time she stayed in the Qing bar was much longer than she felt.

In the dark night, she made an appointment for a car and waited under the eaves of a remote bar. The surrounding lights were dim, and the sound of splashing water from the car passing by and the sound of raindrops hitting the ground merged together. The white noise miraculously cleared up her chaotic thoughts.

The night she received Xu Nuo's breakup text message was also such a rainy day.

Luo Jianing opened the door and found it.

"...Are you in a hurry to leave so early?" She was a little embarrassed, looking at the rain, "You didn't bring an umbrella, did you?"

"I'm really sorry about today's matter. I made my own decisions." She has witnessed how good the relationship between the two is, and she has also seen Xu Nuo's changes, so she always feels a little lucky—maybe the two have a chat Can the misunderstanding be resolved?

Unfortunately, there was no misunderstanding between Shen Yanbing and Xu Nuo.

Shen Yanbing showed her signature chuckle, polite and casual: "It's okay."

Luo Jianing still looked at her with some anxiety, it was rare for her to understand Xu Nuo's dissatisfaction with Shen Yanbing's over-politeness, and said sincerely: "I'm sorry."

Shen Yanbing glanced at the distance between the taxi driver and her on the phone, and looked up: "This is not an example."

Luo Jianing laughed immediately, feeling a sense of peace of mind as if the stone had landed on the ground: "Wait for me, I'll get you an umbrella!"

As soon as she walked in, Shen Yanbing couldn't catch up with "No need".

The car she took has arrived.

Looking back, it seems that she didn't drive herself every time she was out in the rain.

The headlights flickered in the rain, the wipers in front of the windows frantically swung back and forth, and the rain continued to flow and was wiped out quickly.

Shen Yanbing hesitated for a few seconds, although she didn't really need it, she waited for Luo Jianing to bring the umbrella out.

"Thank you."

Luo Jianing was much happier, and helped her open the umbrella and handed it over: "I'll return it when I have a chance, let's talk about it later!"

Shen Yanbing nodded, walked into the rainy night with an umbrella in hand, and after getting in the car, sent Li Mingyue a WeChat message that she would be back soon, and arrived in the community not long after.

The rain outside was getting heavier, and there were faint thunder and lightning.

The night when the dawn moon came, it was like tonight.

Shen Yanbing suddenly thought of something, got out of the car and strode into the rain, the umbrella could not cover the rain at all, she didn't care about getting wet, and walked quickly to the apartment.

The elevator door opened quickly. She was wet, her hair was messy, and her face was anxious. Several people around her stood far away from her.

She hasn't received Li Mingyue's reply yet—even though she knew that the other party might not have paid attention to the tablet, that inexplicable tension still swept through her whole body.

Shen Yanbing got out of the elevator, took a deep breath, and walked to the door of House C. When the latch sounded, she pushed the door open.

Bright living room, more new bookshelves than before, some messy new desks.

But no one.

She held her breath and walked in without changing her shoes, "——Li Mingyue?"

She heard the sound, and after a few seconds, the bathroom door opened, and Li Mingyue leaned out halfway, with white bubbles in her mouth, slurring her words: "I'm brushing my teeth."

Shen Yanbing instantly relaxed all over, her tense muscles and nerves seemed to be out of force, her neglected senses suddenly returned to reality, the dripping tide held her tightly, and when the air conditioner blew on, the coldness seeped into her heart from her fingertips.

She poked her forehead with her cold palm, looked at Her Royal Highness who was brushing her teeth at her ignorantly, and sighed softly: "It's okay."

Fortunately, you are still here.

The author has something to say: I saw the comments and messages last night, thank you for your love for Her Royal Highness haha, but her background makes it difficult for her to become a real science student, and the next chapter will start the career line of the little princess hey~
