When he came to the bakery, Ye Jiaqi put it on the ground obediently, and he went to help the proprietress settle the bill. [Full text reading. 】

The working hours at night are not long, and the intensity is not large, mainly to calculate accounts and count inventory.

As soon as I put my backpack down, my phone rang.

An unfamiliar number.

"Hello."

"It's me." Josnian spoke, "To the bakery?" ”

"Here we are."

"I forgot to tell you that there's a fireworks show on the shores of Lake Michigan tomorrow night, and I'll pick you up when you get off work."

"I have no intention of going to see the fireworks." Ye Jiaqi knew that there was a fireworks show.

"Then you can let your cat accompany me and watch the fireworks, but not alone."

"You're coming to Chicago alone?"

"Yes." Qiao Sinian said lightly, "I accompanied you once, and you also accompanied me once, isn't it?" ”

Ye Jiaqi remembered that year, he accompanied her to watch the fireworks.

At that time, it was in the country.

"I promised you." Ye Jiaqi's voice was soft.

Hanging up the phone, the proprietress asked with concern: "Good time, are you in love?" ”

"Huh? No, a friend. ”

"Are you going to see the fireworks? Go for it, it's good-looking, and you won't regret it. You've just arrived, and it's the first and best of the year. ”

"Then Aunt Cai, tomorrow night, I won't come to the store."

"Okay, it's okay, you can't go to class and work part-time all the time, and when you finally come to a foreign country, you also have to see the scenery."

"Thank you, Aunt Cai."

The obedient "meow" on the sofa.

Ye Jiaqi glanced at it and said with a smile: "I won't take you there." ”

There must be a lot of Ming people, and if she takes her with her, she will lose it.

If she loses it, she won't die of distress.

As if he understood Ye Jiaqi's words, he lowered his head and "meowed" unhappily.

Dislike.

The second year of Joss came as promised.

By the time he got off work, it was already dark, and his Mercedes was parked across the road, not moving.

After Ye Jiaqi got into the car, he opened the passenger door.

Josnian drove her to the shores of Lake Michigan himself.

Outside the window, the night is low, and the bright lights shine on the ground, like a long dragon.

The bustling city is extravagant at night, and the lights are full of wine.

"Let's go have a meal first, and I'll drive there after eating." Joss said.

"Hmm."

Ye Jiaqi saw that he was dressed very casually today, with a khaki coat and jacket, fashionable and simple, not quite like the one-eyed Qiao Ye.

"You're here in Chicago for a meeting? Or a vacation? Ye Jiaqi couldn't help but ask.

"Dating."

“dae？”

"Hmm."

Ye Jiaqi moved his lips and didn't ask again.

Josnian took her to a very fine Michelin-starred restaurant, and after eating, he walked with her to the lakeside.

At night, there is no wind and the air is refreshing, which is very suitable for watching fireworks.

Ye Jiaqi walked beside him and looked up at him, only to realize that the young man back then was no longer what he used to be.

It's more mature than before, and it's more charismatic than before.

Compared with a thirty-year-old man and a twenty-two-year-old, there is always a big change.

Joss Year is no exception.

He stood beside her, still as calm as a mountain.

He wasn't a man of many words, and he still is.

Eight years ago, she may not have thought that eight years later, it would be the same person who would accompany her to watch the fireworks.

Ye Jiaqi's heart suddenly swelled with thousands of emotions.

These emotions brewed in her heart little by little, slowly spreading, like aquatic plants wrapped around her heart.
