Traveling through Tomorrow's Ark: Starting with a Yama Sword

Chapter 124: De: Running into the Night

I am under pressure from the wolf, but I am willing!

"arrive."

Texas slowly stopped, and Shen Qi behind him looked up and saw the restaurant - the sign was written in traditional Chinese and English. He said he could at least understand it.

"Have you ever been here?"

"Sometimes on weekends, I come here to eat with my colleagues, but I haven't been here for a long time."

Texas thought about this and said, "But I can also run more in the future. After all, I have been in Penguin Logistics for so long and I am still an employee here. I will always have something to think about."

"I can understand you. It's just like my residence in Yan Country. I haven't been there for a long time."

"Where to live? If I trace it back to my days in Syracuse and Columbia, I'm afraid it's longer than yours."

"That's true, but I don't want to think about it anymore."

Texas nodded and the two of them walked into the restaurant.

Shen Qi had a sense of déjà vu about this restaurant. It felt like the Hong Kong-style tea restaurant next to his home in real life. But when he sat down and saw the menu handed over by the waiter, he found some subtle differences.

"I'll try to order less."

Texas, who was sitting opposite, didn't want Shen Qi to spend money, but Shen Qi shook his head:

"You can order whatever you want, don't worry about me."

Looking at Shen Qi's confident smile, Texas was speechless and could only order according to her own taste - perhaps she should look at the man in front of her from a different perspective, he might not be so poor.

Shen Qi: It was because I was a novice at that time.

System: Trash, trash, the host doesn't even have the most basic defensive capabilities~

After the two of them ordered their dishes, the waiter quickly handed over the receipt. Shen Qi took a look at the amount on it, coughed lightly, and went directly to the cashier to pay.

[You feel bad about the money again, right? 】

"Eating with my wife... and Texas, no scrimping at all, okay."

[Tsk, you're calling me wife now.]

“It hasn’t come to that yet.”

Shen Qi put away the receipt and walked back to his seat, then he heard Texas' question:

"How many?"

"Not much, cheaper than what you paid me before."

Shen Qi was just about to brush this topic aside, but Texas suddenly reached out and held his wrist holding the receipt:

"Show me one."

Shen Qi had no ability to resist Texas, so he had to hand over the receipt. Texas immediately looked at the number at the bottom of the receipt with the total price - he was lying, it was obviously more expensive than last time.

"Hey, Texas, stop pinching me!"

Shen Qi suddenly felt a pain in his left hand and realized that Texas was pinching him.

"I just don't want you to spend so much."

Texas released his hand. “When we go back and forth like this, it always feels like we owe each other a favor.”

"How could that be? You're Texas, my favorite person."

"That's...never mind."

Looking at Shen Qi's affectionate eyes, Texas chose to obey him this time - the current Qiannian is trustworthy and worthy of... reliance.

"Don't be like that. I remember you're not shy."

Shen Qi took out another candy and gave it to Texas, and Texas naturally accepted it.

"Because you are different from my other friends. I recognize Exia, I trust Sora and Croissant, and I..."

Before she could finish her words, a voice suddenly came from the side - it was the waiter who came with a few dishes:

"Sir and Madam, I'll serve you the food."

Shen Qi suddenly felt a little regretful at that time - he didn't hear what Texas said at the end. Texas sighed, thinking that it would not be too late to say it later.

The food in this restaurant is quite to their taste. Shen Qi wiped his mouth and planned to chat with Texas for a few more words, but Texas directly pulled him up and walked out:

"Don't drag it out. I don't want to stay in the restaurant for long."

When the two walked out of the restaurant, it was already dark - although Longmen is located in a low latitude area, the short days and long nights in winter cannot be concealed after all.

As the two ran towards the night, Shen Qi suddenly felt that he was brighter than ever before, just like the bright moon in the sky late at night.

“The city comes alive at night, and so do the moving stories.”
