Chapter 289 Miami Bar

Mr. Zhang smiled and nodded in agreement. He turned and walked towards the door, saying as he went:

"Let me see you to the door. Enjoy your lunch, and I look forward to seeing you again."

The three of them walked out of the company gate together, the afternoon sun shining on them, warm and bright.

Mr. Zhang stood at the door, waving goodbye to them until their figures disappeared from sight.

After leaving Netflix, Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan got into the car, preparing to return to the hotel.

The afternoon sun shone through the car window onto the two of them, filling the car with a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

Kitahara Makoto turned to look at Lin Wan and said with a smile:

"There shouldn't be any formal business in the US for the rest of the trip. Do you think we should stay here for a couple more days and enjoy the charm of this city?"

Upon hearing this, a glint of excitement flashed in Lin Wan's eyes. After a moment's thought, she replied:

"That's a great suggestion! I've always heard that the United States has many worthwhile attractions and delicious food. Since we have time now, why don't we stay a few more days and relax?"

Kitahara Makoto nodded in agreement:

“That’s what I think too. We’ve been so busy with work that we rarely have the chance to travel so leisurely.”

"Besides visiting Netflix, I should also experience the local culture and customs during this trip to the United States."

The two began discussing their itinerary for the next few days, with Lin Wan suggesting visiting some famous tourist attractions.

Places like the Statue of Liberty and Times Square are popular, while Kitahara Makoto is very interested in the local cuisine and wants to try some authentic American dishes.

As the car slowly moved forward, their conversation echoed in the carriage, filled with anticipation and excitement.

Back at the hotel soon after, Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan felt a little tired, but their hearts were still full of anticipation for the rest of the trip.

They had a simple but hearty lunch at the hotel restaurant.

After enjoying several authentic American dishes, we decided to go back to our rooms to rest and recharge for the evening's activities.

The afternoon sun shone on the windowsill of the hotel room. Kitahara Makoto lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and replayed his experience of visiting Netflix earlier that day in his mind.

He felt both excited and satisfied, and was full of anticipation for his trip to the United States over the next few days.

Meanwhile, Lin Wan was also tidying up her luggage and her feelings in her room.

She recalled her conversation with Kitahara Makoto in the car and decided to make the most of this rare travel opportunity...

She put down her belongings, lay down on the soft bed, closed her eyes, and immersed herself in the tranquil and comfortable environment.

After resting, the two met again in the hotel lobby.

They exchanged a smile, as if they had already tacitly decided on the next steps. Kitahara Makoto suggested:

"Since we've already decided to experience American bar culture, let's not waste any more time and get started preparing."

Lin Wan nodded in agreement, and the two of them went to a shop near the hotel to choose suitable clothes and accessories.

They carefully selected stylish clothes and accessories, ready to show off their style in the bar.

As night fell, Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan arrived at a famous bar called "Miami".

The bar's entrance was illuminated by colorful neon lights, adding a touch of hustle and bustle to the otherwise quiet street.

The bar's signboard has a unique design, with smooth and artistic lettering that stands out prominently under the lights.

Several enthusiastic waiters stood at the entrance, dressed in neat uniforms with smiles on their faces, ready to greet every arriving guest.

The ground in front of the entrance is paved with smooth stone slabs, and several potted green plants are placed around it, which not only adds vitality but also makes people feel a relaxed atmosphere.

Chapter 290 A Relaxing Night

When Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan stepped into the bar "Miami", a unique atmosphere immediately enveloped them.

The bar's interior is spacious and deep, decorated with modern and tasteful elements.

Soft lighting illuminates the wooden bar and leather sofa, creating a warm and comfortable environment.

At the bar, bartenders busily mixed various cocktails, their movements as fluid as an art performance.

The colorful liquid swirls in the glass, releasing an enticing aroma.

The music inside the bar was deep and rhythmic, and people would occasionally sway their bodies gently to the rhythm as the music rose and fell.

Abstract paintings and photographs adorn the surrounding walls, adding an artistic touch to the space.

Around the bar, guests either sipped their drinks alone or chatted in small groups, their voices blending together to create a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

The air was filled with the aromas of various liquors and tobacco, creating a unique sense of relaxation and pleasure.

The waiter walked briskly towards Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan with a smile on his face.

His gaze lingered on the two of them for a moment before he politely inquired, "Good evening, gentlemen. Do you have a reservation?"

His voice was clear and friendly, making people feel very comfortable.

Kitahara Shin and Lin Wan exchanged a glance, then smiled and shook their heads.

The waiter immediately understood what they meant, and he smiled and said:

"Okay, no problem. Please wait a moment while I find you a comfortable spot."

After saying that, he turned and walked into the bar, and a moment later led the two to a spacious seat near the dance floor.

This spot offers a great view of the bartenders' performances and a great feel for the dance floor atmosphere, making it perfect for their bar experience tonight.

The waiter gently pulled out chairs, gesturing for the two to sit down. He smiled again and said:

"This location seems good, what do you two think?"

Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan nodded in satisfaction.

With the waiter's enthusiastic guidance, Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan ordered several signature cocktails and a delicate snack platter.

The waiter skillfully operated the ordering machine, confirming their orders while introducing the taste and characteristics of the drinks.

Kitahara Makoto chose a cocktail called "Miami Night," which is said to be loved by guests for its unique taste and color.

Lin Wan ordered a cocktail called "Tears of the Stars," attracted by its name and unique appearance.

Soon, the waiter brought over the drinks and snacks they had ordered.

The cocktail's color was enticing, and its aroma was irresistible. Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan gently raised their glasses, savoring its unique flavor.

Cocktails offer a rich and layered flavor profile, combining the sweetness of fruit with the subtle intoxication of alcohol, creating a truly delightful experience.

The snack platter is a carefully prepared combination that includes fried chicken wings, French fries, salad bar 457, and other flavors.

Every bite reveals the chef's dedication and skill, leaving you wanting more.

While enjoying the food and drinks, Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan also began to enjoy the atmosphere of the bar.

The music in the dance floor grew louder and louder, and the dancers swayed their bodies to their hearts' content, releasing their inner passion and energy.

Their laughter and cheers frequently reached our ears, adding to the liveliness and joy of the entire bar.

The two enjoyed the food and drinks while watching the performances and people in the bar, savoring this rare moment of relaxation and pleasure.

They seemed to have forgotten the fatigue and stress of work, completely immersed in this wonderful night.

Chapter 291 Picnic in the Park?

As the aroma of the cocktail filled the air, Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan's attention gradually shifted from their glasses to the surrounding scenery and people.

In the center of the dance floor, the music became even more exciting, and the dancers swayed to the rhythm. Their dance steps were either light and graceful or hot and wild, full of power and passion.

The lights spun and danced above the dance floor, projecting the dancers' silhouettes onto the surrounding walls, creating a series of flowing images.

At the bar, bartenders skillfully blend various cocktails like artists.

Their fingers moved nimbly between the bottles and glasses, each movement seemingly rhythmic.

Whenever a new drink is ready, they proudly display it to their guests, the colorful cocktails shimmering enticingly under the lights.

In the surrounding seats, guests either chatted in hushed tones or raised their glasses in a toast.

Their faces were beaming with joy and relaxation, as if all their worries and fatigue had been cast to the winds at that moment.

Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan were also infected by this atmosphere, and they began to interact with the guests around them.

They met some travelers from the same different countries.

Everyone shared their travel experiences and observations, and in the midst of laughter and conversation, the distance between them seemed to shrink considerably.

Everything around seemed to blend into the bar's revelry: the music, the lights, the crowd, and the cocktails in my hand.

Together, they create a vivid and vibrant picture.

Amid the lively atmosphere of the bar, Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan's conversation became increasingly relaxed and enjoyable.

Kitahara Shin raised his glass to Lin Wan, a slight smile playing on his lips:

"The atmosphere here is really nice, what do you think?"

Lin Wan took a small sip of her cocktail, her eyes sparkling:

"Yes, it's really great! I've never been to a bar like this before, it feels like opening the door to a new world."

Kitahara Makoto nodded with a smile:

"Me too. Work is important, but sometimes we need to relax and enjoy ourselves."

"This time in the US, besides work, we really should have some fun."

Lin Wan agreed in agreement:

"That's right! I've been thinking that we could find some time to go for a walk on the beach or go hiking to experience the beauty of nature."

Kitahara Makoto pondered for a moment, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes:

“Great idea! I remember there’s a famous national park nearby. We can go hiking there and enjoy the tranquility and beauty of nature.”

Lin Wan nodded, her eyes filled with anticipation:

"That sounds amazing! We could have a picnic there, enjoying the scenery and delicious food. Just thinking about it is exciting."

The two found themselves getting along better and better, and they began to discuss specific travel arrangements.

This includes which park to go to, what equipment to prepare, and what food to bring for the picnic.

As time went on, the music in the bar grew louder and louder, and the dancers on the dance floor became increasingly frenzied.

As the two were enthusiastically discussing their future plans, an even more energetic burst of music suddenly erupted from the center of the bar's dance floor.

The dancers surged toward the center to the rhythm, showcasing their dance talents to the fullest.

At this moment, a man dressed in a casual suit with a confident smile walked up to Lin Wan.

He bent slightly, looked sincerely at Lin Wan, and invited her in fluent English:

Chapter 292 Childlike Innocence After Drinking

"Miss, your demeanor is so elegant. Would you do me the honor of joining me for a dance in the center?"

Lin Wan was slightly taken aback. She turned to look at Kitahara Makoto, only to see that Kitahara Makoto was also looking at her, with a hint of inquiry and expectation in his eyes.

Lin Wan smiled and shook her head, responding politely in English:

"Thank you very much for the invitation, but tonight I would rather enjoy this wonderful evening with my friends."

"Dancing is tempting, but for me, this chat is more precious right now."

Upon hearing Lin Wan's refusal, the man did not show disappointment. Instead, he nodded with even greater appreciation and said in a more sincere tone:

“I understand, I respect your choice. Have a good evening.” With that, he turned and went back to the dance floor to continue his dance.

Kitahara looked at Lin Wan, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

He gently patted Lin Wan's shoulder and said with a smile:

“You did a great job, and we should really cherish the time we spend together.”

Lin Wan smiled back, and their eyes met again, as if their tacit understanding had deepened.

After a pleasant conversation, Kitahara Makoto noticed that the wine in his glass was empty, and time had passed by unnoticed.

He glanced at his watch and saw that the hour hand was pointing to the time when the bar was about to close.

Kitahara Shin put down his wine glass, turned to Lin Wan and said:
