Chapter 1098: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon (183)
The manager sat in the car while Zuo Yue stood outside the window. She smiled and said,””After graduating, I should look for a company for an internship. King is such a good company, of course I would choose this place.”
Manager Lin smiled again.” You know that’s not what I meant.”
Zuo Yue didn’t continue to answer him. She just smiled calmly.”If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first. See you the day after tomorrow when I officially go to the company for my internship. I’ll be able to get to know my colleagues in advance at the dinner tonight.”
Zuo Yue nodded at the other party after she finished speaking. She walked around the car and walked in front of his car, intending to cross the road.
Manager Lin suddenly pressed the horn inside the car. Zuo Yue paused for a moment and turned to look at the Mercedes-Benz that was flashing its lights.
Manager Lin opened the car door and got out of the car. He casually placed one hand on the car door and stared at her a few times.”You’re not young anymore. You should have been in a relationship before, right?”
“..”Zuo Yue was stunned by this straightforward statement and did not continue for a while.
“You have a boyfriend now?”
“..””No.” Zuo Yue was embarrassed.
Manager Lin immediately raised his eyebrows. He had a hint of a yuppie in his refined manner, but it was not annoying.”Then can’t you tell that I’m interested in you?”
“..”
“Just standing outside and chatting? Get in the car and sit down. Let’s talk for a while?”
Zuo Yue suddenly smiled and raised her hand to tuck the hair on her cheek behind her ear.””Manager Lin, you might have misunderstood. I said that I don’t have a boyfriend, but it doesn’t mean that I’m empty in my relationship. I just came out for an internship and want to focus on my work. I hope that Manager Lin won’t put the habit of picking up girls on me.”
” I like girls like you who speak straightforwardly. During the interview this afternoon, your attitude when answering questions was just like now. It was simple and straightforward. To put it bluntly, you’re beautiful and your personality suits my taste. That’s why I wanted to pursue you before I knew you for 24 hours. If you think it’s rude, I can wait a few days. But I hope that Miss Zuo won’t treat me as a man who randomly picks up girls. I’m not that kind of man.”
Manager Lin made a gesture to her after he finished speaking, meaning that she could leave and he would not pester her.
Zuo Yue stood rooted to the ground for a long time after hearing this sudden confession and such a straightforward method.
Manager Lin stuck his head out of the car again.”What’s wrong? Do you want to sit in and chat with me for a while?”
Zuo Yue suddenly smiled,”See you the day after tomorrow.””
As soon as he finished speaking, he directly crossed the zebra crossing and walked across the road.
It was not until she left Manager Lin’s line of sight that the faint smile in Zuo Yue’s eyes gradually faded. She glanced at the apartment building that was gradually approaching, but she was not in a hurry to go back. She turned to look at the bar beside her and directly turned around to enter the bar.
“Miss Zuo is here again? What are you drinking today? Brandy or Bloody Mary? Do you want a stronger or lighter one?” The bartender at the bar counter smiled and looked at Zuo Yue, who sat in front of him.
“Something lighter. In a few days, I’ll be changing from a student to an intern in the company. I’ll even have to restrain myself when I drinking.”Zuo Yue said as she put her bag aside and looked around.””Why is the bar so quiet today?” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
“Our big BOSS will be back in Boston in the next two days. The manager is busy reorganizing the staff of our bar and doesn’t have much energy to entertain the customers, so he closed the shop in the afternoon. Today, we just opened, and you’re the fifth customer.”The bartender handed her the Brandy that Zuo Yue usually drank, and then casually put two ice cubes into the transparent square glass in front of her.
Zuo Yue took a sip and smiled.””I’ve only been coming to your bar for a few drinks in the past few years. I’m used to the wine you make. It won’t keep me awake, but it won’t make me drunk either. Every time I drink it, I’ll feel dizzy, but I can still recognize my house. When I get home, I’ll have a good sleep. You’re really a good helper for insomnia.”
The bartender smiled and leaned against the bar counter.” You’re such a beautiful woman. You’ve been drinking in our bar for three years in a row. Every time, you’re alone. When men come to seduce you, you never answer. You’ve been drinking alone for three years. Sometimes, I wonder what kind of girl you are.”
Zuo Yue sighed and laughed.” She’s not any kind of girl. She just wants to drink.””
“You want to drink? Have you never thought of finding someone to accompany you?”
Zuo Yue glanced at him and did not say anything else. She looked around and saw a few more guests coming in. She asked,””What did you just say about your big BOSS? Haven’t I seen the boss of your bar before? The tall one who always appears in a black t-shirt. Don’t you always call him boss? Isn’t he?”
“That’s the person in charge of our bar. Calling him boss is just a passing remark.””Do you think our bar is private?” the bartender said with a smile. You might not have heard of it in the United States, but there’s a big Russian financial group called the KP Group. Our bar is a branch of the KP Group’s business branch in Boston. It’s part of the entertainment branch of the company. There are nightclubs, bars, pubs, and all kinds of high-end clubs under the KP Group’s name. You probably haven’t heard of them.”
Zuo Yue had just taken a sip of the wine in her cup when she suddenly stopped.
“The real big BOSS of our KG Group will be coming to Boston soon. He hasn’t been back to the United States for three years. This time, he has something urgent to deal with personally. Otherwise, I think the big BOSS has plans to never step foot in the United States again.”
Zuo Yue did not speak and continued to drink silently until she finished her glass. She placed the empty glass in front of the bartender and said,””Another glass.”
“Another glass?” The bartender looked at her in surprise. You usually only drink one cup before leaving. My cup is just right. If I drink another cup, you’ll be drunk.”
Zuo Yue smiled.” It’s the KP Group. Who said I haven’t heard of it?” I’ve heard a lot about you…”
The bartender did not understand why she suddenly changed the topic and looked at her in confusion. Zuo Yue pushed the glass in front of her and said,””Give me another glass. Hurry up and don’t dawdle.”
“If you still want to drink, have a Bloody Mary. If you drink another glass of this Brandy, you’ll be paralyzed here.”
“Whatever, it’s wine.”Zuo Yue muttered softly, then suddenly laughed,””Perhaps this will be the last glass of wine I drink in your bar. I have to drink to my heart’s content.”
