Chapter 72: Chaotic Mind

6 o'clock in the evening.

Tang Song saved the work files, said something to Gao Mengting on WeChat, and got up to change clothes.

Today’s date location was outdoors, and [Outfit - Night Chill] just happened to come in handy.

With the blessing of the special effect, it should also increase Tian Jing’s dating satisfaction a lot.

Standing in front of the mirror to look.

The deep apricot cardigan was loose-fitting, V-neck, the white T-shirt inside was slightly slim-fit, plus gray-black casual pants, the overall look made him look tall and thin.

Then, he sprayed a little men’s perfume on his body; it had a high-end woody scent, which smelled very good.

After packing his things, Tang Song picked up the small gift he had prepared and hurried downstairs.

According to the advice of the advisors, for a first date, it is not advisable to send anything too expensive, as it would make him look too anxious and might be rejected instead.

It is best to have some small accessories, cosmetics, or practical items that are not too private.

Tang Song finally bought a pair of Gucci women’s sunglasses.

The counter price was 2,000 yuan, which was not expensive for a Bai Fumei like Tian Jing, and it had both practicality and aesthetics, very suitable for gifting between friends.

Accompanied by the roar of the engine, the pitch-black BMW 330i shuttled through building after building, facing the magnificent sunset glow on the horizon, and drove towards the destination.

……

The white Honda Accord stopped at Tiankuo Garden.

Two girls got out of the car.

He Liting handed her shopping bag to Zhao Yaqian.

She leaned in and whispered: "Qianqian, actually, it's quite good to be friends. Feelings are originally mutual choices; it can only be said that he is not excellent enough yet. Don't let your imagination run wild, go back and rest well, drink some hot soup to warm your stomach."

Zhao Yaqian said a light "Oh" and walked slowly into the unit door.

Li Xinghui took back his gaze and smiled: "Let's go, Liting, get in the car!"

He Liting smiled, pulled open the passenger door, sat in, and adjusted the seat.

"It is said that the barbecue restaurant is camping-style, on the roof of a three-story detached building, and there are cafes and bars downstairs, facing the park, the environment is great."

"I asked Yuanyuan and the others, the beef brisket and cheese-baked sweet potato there are very delicious."

On the way, Li Xinghui introduced the restaurant while driving.

Passing by a bustling commercial street, he pointed to a piece of red high-rise building in the distance and said casually: "My home is over there, Shengdong Huafu residential area."

"I'm living with my parents now. I like listening to rock and roll, which annoys them to death. They are thinking about buying me a new house and kicking me out."

He Liting looked at the magnificent city scenery in the sunset and envied: "That's great, a house costs at least over 1 million."

The Tiankuo Garden where she and her cousin rented was a typical old-fashioned residential area, all 6-story small buildings without elevators.

The building was a bit old, and the greening, facilities, and property management were also very poor.

But even so, a two-bedroom apartment of 80 square meters cost 1.2 million.

Relying on themselves, they would definitely not be able to afford it in this lifetime.

Li Xinghui’s gaze swept over He Liting’s curvy body, raised the corner of his mouth and said: "I definitely won't buy a suburban house or an old, broken, small one. If I buy, I will buy in the city center, choose a popular business district, with complete supporting facilities, and subway, supermarkets, and hospitals right outside the door."

"Brother Hui’s family is really powerful, I can't envy that!"

"Hehe, what are you envying? You girls don't need to buy a house, just choose the right boyfriend."

…

About 20 minutes later, the car drove slowly into Chunyuan Road, and from afar, they saw a detached building wrapped in LED light strips.

Orange-yellow walls, translucent white light signs, very beautiful.

This time point happened to be the peak period, and the parking spaces on the roadside were very tight.

After Li Xinghui circled around and couldn't find one, he had to park in the slightly further paid parking lot.

"OK, alright, this distance is about 300 meters from the barbecue restaurant, just walk two steps and you'll be there."

The two got out of the car and walked west along the sidewalk.

The sun gradually fell toward the horizon, and the shadows of everything were stretched very long.

When they reached the downstairs of Xinxian Restaurant, Li Xinghui pointed to a parking space in front and said: "Our luck is a bit bad, there were no empty spaces here just now."

"It doesn't matter, the temperature is suitable now, walking is also quite good."

"Buzz buzz buzz—" A black BMW car drove past them, turned a corner, and stopped in that empty space.

The clean black car body was like a piece of obsidian, reflecting deep luster in the orange-red sunset glow.

When the two walked to the car, the car door happened to be opened.

A tall and upright figure walked out, holding a retro green gift box in his hand, with "GUCCI" LOGO clearly written on it.

"Bang!" The boy closed the car door casually.

Fresh broken hair, apricot cardigan swaying lightly in the evening breeze.

The side face was like a mountain peak, the bridge of the nose was high, and the lip line was clear.

He Liting’s eyes showed deep envy.

Driving a BMW 330, giving a Gucci gift, and being so tall and handsome—she really didn't know which girl was so lucky.

He Liting pursed her lips, and after passing the BMW, she couldn't help but look back at his front face.

Handsome features, even skin tone, plus a tall and upright figure, he looked fresh and handsome, full of atmosphere.

It was just... just a bit familiar.

He Liting’s eyelids twitched, and she stopped instantly, turning around to look directly at the boy.

He locked the car and walked towards this side facing the sunset twilight, with a beauty of light and shadow intertwined on him.

Li Xinghui frowned and blocked her line of sight calmly.

He Liting took a deep breath, looked at the BMW 330 not far away, and then looked at the figure passing by them.

For a time, her mind was chaotic.

Tang Song...

Although there were some discrepancies with the photo, it was definitely him.

But didn't Qianqian say he drove a Wuling Hongguang, lived in a rental house, and had a monthly salary of several thousand?

"Liting, what's wrong with you?" Li Xinghui couldn't help but remind her: "Let's go upstairs quickly, it's getting dark, if we go up now, we can still enjoy the sunset."

"I... just suddenly felt a bit dizzy, maybe motion sickness." He Liting replied absentmindedly, her brain buzzing.

"Then go up and drink a cup of hot water later, and rest."

……

Along the wooden stairs covered with light strips to the 3rd floor, after reporting the reserved phone number to the waiter, Tang Song was taken to his seat.

Camping elements were visible everywhere, flowers and green plants, wooden dining tables, canvas chairs, warm light strips, and a canvas painted with graffiti was propped up above each seat.

On one side of the restaurant, there was also a small stage with an industrial style, very artistic atmosphere.

Tang Song casually took a photo and shared it with Tian Jing, leaving a message: "Xiao Jing, I'm here."

Putting down the phone, he didn't know if it was an illusion.

Tang Song always felt that someone was staring at him secretly.

Looking around, a familiar figure caught his eye.

College classmate Lu Kai.

They hadn't met for 3 years, he had gained a lot of weight, and his hairline had receded.

Speaking of which, he decided to come here after seeing his Moments "like" message.

Today was the first day of the holiday, and it was only natural to bump into him here.
