Gulangyu Island 2
The dinner for two people actually didn't eat much, especially starch was very little, but the intake of protein was quite high.
"Have a drink before heading back to rest?" Chen Huan indicated the bar's sign with his chin. "You can also continue walking around, I'm a bit tired from walking."
"Go! Let's go together!" Pang Hua turned around and went in immediately.
Cozy bar with no illicit scenes, at most decorated in a bit of pirate style.
"I remember Long Island Iced Tea has a high alcohol content, right?"
"Right, you can't handle your liquor, stop drinking."
"I know."
Pang Hua chose a cocktail with no strong liquor in it, and the blue color in the picture looked exceptionally beautiful under the dim light.
Chen Huaizhen chose a three-layer colored cocktail - without her most hated raw egg - a lovely pinkish chicken tail wine.
A few minutes later, two large cups of wine were served.
"It's a good thing we didn't order drinks just now." Pang Hua stared at the large cup in a daze, oh, and there was also a cute plastic straw! If he had drunk something earlier, in addition to the small bowl of peanut soup, his stomach would have burst.
"Let's drink slowly. We can come back for another cup after 'liberating' ourselves." Chen Xiang pointed to the uniquely named restroom, which had "Liberation Zone" written on it in large letters.
"Pffft——" Pang Hua burst out laughing at a glance. Fortunately, there was no wine in his mouth.
The bar was mostly filled with solo or groups of tourists, but couples were scarce. Maybe it was still early and the lovebirds hadn't finished dinner yet, or perhaps they didn't want to waste their precious time in a bar instead of in their seaside bedroom.
The music volume inside the store is not very loud. They play blues or country music with English lyrics.
Warm but not noisy, calm and not lonely.
It's a great place for tourists to spend an hour or two and relax their legs.
"This is a good place for tourists to sit and rest their feet." Pang Hua also commented after a moment of silence, then took a sip of the low-alcohol liquor that could almost be considered a beverage.
"Uh-huh." Chen Xuan looked at the storefront with a high turnover rate of tables. Nodding in agreement. She only now realized that she was really a bit tired, having rushed around all day, by plane, city, sea ferry, and then running around on the island...
"Why don't we go back and rest earlier?" Pang Hua asked suddenly.
It wasn't until then that Chen Xiao Sheng discovered she was actually dozing off! Fortunately, she had changed into a long skirt before coming out and had also sprayed enough mosquito repellent.
"Oh, drink up and leave. Still have to take a bath and wash clothes when I get back."
"Good!"
Dazedly hung up the wet clothes and fell asleep as soon as I lay down.
The next morning, Chen Haosheng was woken up by his biological clock before the alarm clock rang.
Last night I slept for eight hours, and the food and drink before bed hadn't been fully digested, so no alarm clock was needed, **and my intestines and stomach couldn't take it first thing.
After applying sunscreen, isolation pearl cream and sunscreen eye cream, oh, the sunscreen on my arm is solved with a thin white shirt, and the mosquito repellent on my leg must not be sloppy.
Take another look at the clothes washed last night, still a bit damp. Continue to air dry them.
After all this fuss, it's already been more than half an hour since I got out of bed. Not even 8 o'clock yet.
Chen Hua tried sending a text message to Pang Hua, but there was no response. So she strolled through the garden with a peaceful mind, oh yeah. She also brought out the dried fish she bought yesterday at the dock while waiting for the boat, to tease the big white cat with snow-white fur that wasn't afraid of strangers. The fluffy cat really liked the taste of the dried fish and hesitated for only two seconds before walking over to her side asking for food.
She didn't bring back too many, only five fish. Let's consider it as a breakfast snack for the cat. Some cats that refused to give up licked her hand, she just scratched their chin and little nose. "There isn't any more, hehehe."
After being coquettish for a while, she found that there was no delicious food left. The white cat slowly walked away and went to the kitchen to find her regular meal. She even turned back twice, wondering if Chen Huacheng had any "hidden treats".
The phone rang.
Panghua came over.
Chen Hua slowly walked to the entrance of a courtyard with lush greenery and elegant surroundings, waiting for Pang Hua to rush out, then they would go find that shop from last night and have some egg drop soup!
The island started to get lively quite early, when the first shop broke the sound of the ocean with music, people could no longer hear the sound of the waves crashing against the shore, let alone the fact that this place has been known for its calmness since ancient times.
At 9:30, Chen Huai Sheng went back to work and left Pang Hua on the street - a big man like fǎnzhèng, not a beautiful young man with national color and heavenly fragrance, can't be lost!
Not shipping does not mean that I cannot reply to consultation messages. Also, she is using these few days to sort out her thoughts and plan the work direction for the second half of this year and next year.
Then when receiving emails, she found a lot of legal work to do. She sent a text message and asked Pang Hua to take care of it by herself at noon, but don't forget to bring back a share of good food and drink for herself.
Lunch was a meal delivered by the inn, classic Italian spaghetti and borscht soup set meal, the price is not more expensive than outside shops, the most convenient is that it can be delivered directly to the room.
As for coffee, she just needs to pour herself a cup of instant coffee to solve the problem.
Pang Hua came over and knocked on the door.
She kicked off her slippers and ran to open the door.
He gave two formulas for lotus and swallowtail jasmine, very suitable for himself and many people like him.
Chen Huaicheng is a more suitable choice from among them as the source of the material.
"It's a bit cold." But now she has the confidence: every time the acne treatment classic set is promoted and sold, the results are excellent. Although not much money is made, her reputation has increased and sales have gone up. This way, she can directly import some raw materials from abroad, do wholesale herself, reduce one link, and lower costs a bit. "By the way, the system product of the upgraded formula No. 3 has been approved. Let's go out for dinner tonight! Celebrate!"
Yes, it's an email from a proxy company, and the first sentence is:
Pure plant ingredients are great, but there are too few such products!
Then she said that the cosmetics batch approval document has arrived - this speed is already very fast - and it has been express mailed to her, along with a scanned copy.
Chen Haotian replied that he is currently out of town and will handle it after returning. The main thing is the agency fee balance.
***
Pang Hua didn't go for a stroll either, and instead sat in front of the computer writing things. As he wrote, inspiration struck, and he couldn't stop. In the end, the two of them dragged on until almost eight o'clock before settling down to dinner at a small restaurant next door.
Chen Haotian was afraid that he couldn't finish the steak at this restaurant, so he ordered "safe" options like fish, chicken, vegetables, and domestic wine. The price of this meal was also reasonable.
"This is officially 'regular' now."
"Hmm! Can we sell it on a large scale now?"
"Yes. But I finally went with online sales, so I'm still not sure about the final sales volume, and whether or not to outsource production. If the quantity is large, then outsource it; if small, then save on that processing fee."
"Let's start with ourselves first." Pang Hua can now also calculate the comprehensive cost of raw materials, labor, depreciation, tax burden and other expenses. "Otherwise, there is still an inventory problem."
"Hmm." Chen Xiao Sheng took a sip of the wine, closed her eyes to savor it for a moment. This wine was definitely not expensive, but it suited her taste buds. "Hmm, I like this sweet and low-alcohol wine."
Pang Hua did not comment. Fan Zheng Chen said that if it's worth paying for, then it's worth drinking. He had a low tolerance for alcohol, and even with this type of liquor, he could barely finish one cup. So he only poured half a cup and placed it at a short distance from his hand, planning to drink it after eating enough.
Chen Haotian was very clear about his alcohol tolerance, especially the impact of emotions on it. Since the inn was just next door, he didn't have to worry about driving or safety issues, so before they even finished eating, half a bottle of wine had already been drunk.
"Ah, we are the 'regular army' now. Well, it's also a kind of affirmation for us over the past few years, although the formality is greater than the actual significance." Chen Haosheng began to speak more.
"I've also been very pleased. This is also something I participated in, and I benefited from it." Pang Hua's face looked normal under the light and glass reflection. "After so many years of being an ugly duckling, now that I've become a swan, it feels somewhat unfamiliar to touch."
"Uh, if you want it smooth, you have to use micro-invasive surgical methods, at least using many microneedles and nanoneedles."
"I think it's already good enough." Pang Hua and his wife drained their cups, hesitated for a moment, and then poured another small half cup. "Looking at myself in the mirror also feels great."
Chen Huaixing was indeed a bit drunk, and he pinched his face with one hand. "If you use pearl cream, it's much better visually. However, the damage to the dermal layer can only be slowly self-repaired at present. You can ask your colleagues in biochemistry or medicine to study this topic. Although I think they may not study such a topic."
"As long as we find classmates who have real needs for themselves, that's not a big problem." Pang Hua said with great confidence. He was also slightly drunk.
Chen Huaixing touched his face again, "What a pity... In high school, you were still considered a handsome guy. Hmm, it seems that at that time our grade had several good-looking ones, and the grades were also passable... Alas, I only remember that at that time I was entangled in what major to take, and everything else is forgotten."
Pang Hua was speechless with laughter and tears. He had been crowned as "class grass" and had been secretly admired by many girls - of course, before his face was full of acne - the school's most popular boy wasn't even in his league, he knew that much. But in Chen Huai Sheng's mouth, being a school heartthrob at best was just okay, passable. Alas, her standards were so high that even he had to admit defeat - really didn't know where she cultivated such refined taste!
"I was just thinking of saying this earlier, but with this eye shadow color on you tonight, you look really spirited."
Eyeshadow? "Oh! A new box of marble earth tone." Chen Xiao Cheng bit his lip and giggled, laughing sweetly and childishly. "Hehe, I'm also using this color for the first time. Next time we go on a blind date, let's use this color... Ugh, I hate petty bourgeoisie and peasants the most, and they're all that type..."
Pang Hua was stunned, speechless, and drank the rest of the wine. Then he fell silent for a while, and when his mind was still clear, he called over the waiter to pay the bill.
