I became financially independent right after entering college.

Chapter 36 A stranger is like jade

The two of them kept talking and laughing throughout the meal. Not only Bai Chou and Jin Xiaozhou, but other diners in the restaurant were also talking in low voices.

However, because the space utilization rate is not high and everyone is deliberately controlling the volume, even though there is occasional slight noise, the overall atmosphere still maintains a quiet and romantic atmosphere.

This is a date restaurant, and everyone abides by basic morals and tries not to disturb others in public social situations unless they can't help it.

A little after 8:30, the resident performer from Jaga Steak House and Winery also appeared under the dim light. He was dressed in a suit and had a strong build. He held a baritone saxophone and walked around the hall, playing melodious but not noisy romantic music.

Kim Hyo-joo smiled and said, "It seems like this store has a piano and a microphone. Do you want to find a chance to sing a song?"
Bai Chou smiled and shook his head, saying forget it, there was no need, just enjoy the performance.

The two chatted and laughed while watching the Filipino saxophonist "touring" in the hall, while finishing the chef's special chocolate soufflé that the waiter brought last.

"I'm going to the bathroom."

Kim Hyo-joo stood up slowly, put the sun protection clothing on her legs on the chair, smiled at Bai Chou, and was about to leave when Bai Chou called her.

"Ai."

"what happened?"

Kim Hyo-joo looked at Bai Chou in confusion, and her bright eyes reflected Bai Chou's image.

"Wipe your mouth." Bai Chou pointed at the corner of Kim Hyo Joo's mouth.

Kim Hyo Joo subconsciously raised her hand, her slender fingers gently wiped the corner of her mouth with her fingertips, and then she looked down and found that the corner of her mouth was stained with the residue of the chocolate soufflé.

"Anything else?" Kim Hyo Joo raised her head and looked at Bai Chou again, and leaned her head towards Bai Chou inconspicuously.

If I remain indifferent, it would seem that I am too unromantic.

"do not move."

Bai Chou gently instructed, raised his hand and pressed the corner of Jin Xiaozhou's mouth with the tip of his thumb, gently but not too gently wiping across her tender lips...

It seems not wiped clean, Emmm, wipe it again.

Kim Hyo-joo maintained this posture throughout the whole process and did not take advantage of Bai Chou's thumb to rub across her lips several times to stick out her tongue to attack. That would have been too deliberate and greasy.

She just kept looking at Bai Chou, meeting his gaze as he stared at her face. At the same time, she slightly increased her breathing, letting her warm breath hit Bai Chou's fingers.

After about four or five seconds, Bai Chou withdrew his hand and looked at Jin Xiaozhou: "Okay."

"Oh my, you've ruined my lip makeup~" Kim Hyo Joo glanced at Bai Chou's thumb tip with a hint of pink, and complained coquettishly and angrily.

"I was kind enough to wipe your mouth, but you didn't even appreciate it. Also, didn't you say you never wear makeup when you go out? "

Liar, you deceived my feelings!
You said you were a rabbit, but it turned out you were a tiger, a full year older than me!
"Non-makeup makeup isn't makeup. I look like this whether I wear makeup or not... Oh, I'm not going to tell you anymore!"

Jin Xiaozhou gave Bai Chou a resentful look, stopped explaining, turned around and asked the waiter in the store, then went to the bathroom in small steps.

Bai Chou raised his hand and waved, calling the waitress who had been serving them, took out his mobile phone to scan the code, and paid for the two non-alcoholic mojitos.

The set meal Kim Hyo-joo ordered did not include drinks, which had to be paid for extra.

"Would you two like to stay in the store for a while? Our store is not very busy right now, and there are several corners in the store that are great for taking photos. You don't have to leave in a hurry." The waitress standing aside asked politely, smiling as she looked at Bai Chou handing over the souvenirs, and she was very envious of Bai Chou's female companion in her heart.

Bai Chou's clothes were not particularly expensive, but they were all brands that at least the middle class could afford. In addition, the Porsche car keys he accidentally took out when he took out his mobile phone just now proved that Bai Chou came from a wealthy family and was a rich second-generation, and the kind of rich second-generation with good family education.

Eyes, micro-expressions, posture, range of movement, and long-standing habits, these things will together shape something called "temperament".

Bai Chou's temperament is very similar to Liming's, he is a gentleman who is as elegant as a chrysanthemum, graceful and elegant, and as beautiful as jade.

Although he is essentially a self-centered person with the same spoiled brat syndrome as Li Xue, his higher emotional intelligence gives people a feeling of being easy to approach.

Moreover, Bai Chou is very handsome and young.

In this society, rich and handsome people are a minority.

If you add to that the fact that he is young and has a good personality (and looks like he has a good personality), then he is one of the very few among the very few, and it is no exaggeration to call him a male god.

Being able to dine with Bai Chou in this date restaurant, it is natural that Kim Hyo Joo would be envied and even a little jealous by the waitress. Although Kim Hyo Joo is not much prettier than her, her fate is completely different from hers.

Because compared to Kim Hyo-joo's beauty and high emotional intelligence, Bai Chou, who has all these qualities combined, is relatively rarer.

Without even glancing at the waitress, Bai Chou just smiled politely but with a hint of distance and said, "Please clear the things on the table first. Even if we want to take pictures later, we won't stay too long and won't disturb you."

"Ok."

Seeing that Bai Chou was completely uninterested in her, the waitress was quite disappointed, but she still smiled politely, bowed slightly, and cleared the plates and forks on the table.

Working in a relatively high-end dating restaurant like this, it is inevitable to meet all kinds of high-quality opposite sex.

The only difference is that Bai Chou is one of the best people she has met in terms of comprehensive conditions since she started working, perhaps the only one.

Ignoring everything else, Bai Chou put away his phone, sat there casually and lazily, enjoying the saxophone performance in the hall, waiting for Kim Hyo Joo.

"White sorrow."

Hearing the familiar low voice, Bai Chou subconsciously turned his head and saw Kim Hyo Joo standing there prettyly, holding her phone in both hands and taking a lot of pictures.

"Hehe, the photo is done!"

Jin Xiaozhou walked to Bai Chou and shook her phone playfully. She still had not forgotten the main task of today, at least the main task on the surface of today.

"How's the photo? Let me see." Bai Chou stood up and was about to "grab" Kim Hyo Joo's phone.

Be obedient and let me take a rest!
"No!"

Kim Hyo Joo suddenly withdrew her hand and hid the phone behind her like a little squirrel hiding peanuts.

Considering that there were other customers dining in the restaurant, it was inappropriate to fight and play here. Bai Chou failed to snatch the phone and withdrew his hand very decisively.

Kim Hyo-joo, who successfully protected her cell phone, felt a little disappointed.
