After dinner, Lu Ci ordered a pair of extremely impressive opening flower baskets online, filled in the address, and had them delivered directly to him.

He took a quick shower and changed his clothes.

The upper body was covered by a soft light blue linen shirt, over which was a pure white heavy cotton short-sleeved shirt.

She paired it with a pair of retro-washed wide-leg jeans and clean white canvas shoes.

This outfit has no unnecessary embellishments and looks very refreshing.

Shen Nian was originally overjoyed and wanted to go along, but unfortunately, the School of Economics and Management of Jiang University was going to hold a conference the next day, and Shen Nian was selected as a student representative because of her excellent grades and was going to speak on stage.

Tonight, she still has to have a DingTalk video conference with her counselor to check her speech word by word.

……

Following the location provided by his childhood friend Chen Feng, Lu Ci took a taxi to a bustling commercial district in Jiangnan District.

At a street corner with a great view, Lu Ci saw the newly opened bar.

The bar has a very stylish name: "Twilight Chill".

Instead of using gaudy neon lights, the facade features a large area of ​​dark gray exposed concrete and floor-to-ceiling glass, paired with warm yellow retro wall lamps, exuding a strong sense of sophistication.

Two rows of congratulatory flower baskets were neatly arranged at the entrance.

As soon as Lu Ci reached the door, he saw a man wearing a flashy floral shirt and with his hair slicked back standing there smoking.

It was his childhood friend, Chen Feng.

"Son! Dad missed you so much!"

The moment Chen Feng looked up and saw Lu Ci, he immediately stubbed out his cigarette, opened his arms, and gave him a tight bear hug. Then he took a half step back, looked Lu Ci up and down, and smacked his lips, teasingly saying:

"Well, you've been taking some kind of anti-aging drug these past few months! You've gotten younger and younger, you're so fresh and youthful, you're even more attractive to girls than you were in high school, right?"

Lu Ci laughed and punched him lightly: "Get lost. Judging by the location and the renovations, you must have spent a fortune, right?"

"That's right!" Chen Feng sighed as he mentioned this. "The little bit of money I saved up over the years from running construction projects has basically all gone into this shop."

After exchanging a few sarcastic remarks, Chen Feng put his arm around Lu Ci's shoulder and walked into the bar.

The environment inside is truly refreshing.

This is a purely quiet bar, without deafening DJs or a chaotic dance floor.

The air is filled with a faint woody scent, soothing jazz music flows in the air, retro leather sofas and a dark bar counter. The overall decoration is very artistic and sophisticated, and it certainly has the potential to become the next popular spot for taking photos in Wuhan.

"Yesterday I yelled in our old high school group chat, and a few classmates who stayed in Jiangcheng said they wanted to come and support me, so today is kind of a small class reunion."

As Chen Feng spoke, he led Lu Ci to a semi-open booth in the center of the bar with the best view.

There were already five people sitting in the booth, three men and two women, all familiar yet unfamiliar faces.

After graduating from high school, apart from Chen Feng, whom he kept in touch with more frequently, the last time Lu Ci saw the rest of them was at a class reunion during his freshman year winter break.

When they saw Chen Feng leading a handsome man over, the people in the booth didn't react for a moment.

After all, in high school, although Lu Ci had regular features, he was just a handsome young man who hadn't fully grown up.

Now, he has broad shoulders, long legs, and a tall, upright figure, especially his eyes.

"Holy crap? Lu Ci?!"

A girl with short, ear-length hair and a generally outgoing personality was the first to recognize him and stood up in surprise.

Her name is Zhang Xiao, and she was the class clown in high school.

"Isn't this our handsome Lu? It's been years! Look how much he's grown, even more handsome than before!" Zhang Xiao greeted him with a smile, unabashedly reaching out to touch Lu Ci's chest, her eyes instantly lighting up.

"Wow! He even has muscles! It's making my mouth water."

A bespectacled young man standing nearby, holding a wine glass, joked, "Zhang Xiao, you'd better watch your behavior. President Lu is a married man now."

Upon hearing this, everyone burst into good-natured laughter.

Lu Ci smiled and sat down on the sofa. His gaze swept across the room and landed on a girl in the far corner of the booth.

The girl wore a black spaghetti strap dress, and her exposed skin appeared even whiter against the black fabric.

The silk fabric clung perfectly to her figure, outlining her impressive bust and slender waist to the fullest. Her two long, beautiful legs, crossed together, gleamed alluringly in the dim light.

Seeing Lu Ci's gaze sweep over, the girl slightly curved her red lips, revealing a charming smile: "Long time no see."

"Long time no see," Lu Ci nodded slightly in response.

He remembered her, Lin Wan.

In their second year of high school, the two were deskmates for an entire semester.

Lin Wan was the undisputed beauty of her class at the time, and her drawer was always filled with love letters and snacks from boys in other classes.

Lu Ci benefited quite a bit from that back then, eating all the chocolates and potato chips that those simps brought him. The two had a pretty good relationship at the time, but after graduation, they went their separate ways and never contacted each other again.

After Lu Ci took his seat, Chen Feng, as the boss, went to the door to greet the guests.

This guy really went all out today; the waiters were bringing drinks to the table like a never-ending stream.

The table was laden with imported spirits, craft beer, and high-end red wine, and the fruit platters and snacks were also the most expensive items.

As night deepened, the bar gradually filled with customers, and a hired resident band came up on stage to play and sing slightly languid folk songs.

After a few drinks, the atmosphere in the booth gradually became more lively.

Everyone started playing the most classic icebreaker game in bars: Truth or Dare.

After several rounds, Lin Wan, who had been sitting quietly in the corner drinking, lost.

"I'll choose Truth or Dare," Lin Wan said with a somewhat helpless smile.

Having drunk a few glasses of red wine, a charming blush rose on her originally fair cheeks, and a light mist clouded her eyes, making her appear even more alluring under the light.

The boys standing nearby immediately became excited.

"Beautiful Lin, why don't you come up and sing us a song?"

"Singing is so boring, go to the bar and ask the most handsome waiter for his WeChat!"

"Go away, what kind of adventure is this!" Zhang Xiao, who was very carefree, waved away a few boys, rolled her eyes, and glanced back and forth between Lin Wan and Lu Ci. A very excited and mischievous smile appeared on her face.

"Listen to me! If we're going to play, let's do something exciting!" Zhang Xiao casually picked up a red ace from the table and announced loudly, "Lin Wan's dare is: you and Lu Ci have to use your mouths to catch the playing card! I'll stand on top of you and throw it down, and you two have to try to catch it with your mouths at the same time. If you miss and it falls to the ground, you have to keep trying until you catch it!"

Upon hearing this, a burst of extremely enthusiastic cheers erupted from the booth.
