"3-4 glasses won't get Xiao Jiu drunk." Jiayuan convincing Keyu. Keyu thingking for a while and finally agreed.

"Wait here. I'll order our drinks." Jiayuan stand up, and looked at Keyu. It took some time for Keyu to understand and finally gave his wallet to Jiayuan.

Keyu not relized that he was smiling at Nine. Yeah, it's been long time since Keyu seeing Nine smile like that.

"Keyu, this place is really cool! You really been here before?" Asked Nine, making Keyu startled. Fortunately, Nine didn't realize that Keyu had been staring at him.

"Yeah... I've been here a few times." Keyu silent again, then....

"Nine, I'm so happy you're smiling again like this." Live music was playing, and voices of people were also very noisy, but now Nine and Keyu looked at each other and were silent for a moment.
