In a Japanese bar.
Akiko and Fei Yingli successfully met here.
"Really? Did you really meet a handsome killer on your way here?”When Arisu heard Fei Yingli talk about what she had encountered on the way here, her small lips parted slightly, and her eyes were filled with surprise.
"Oh, I'm not lying to you. Look!" Fei Yingli smiled smugly. She even opened her bag to show Akiko the pistol that she had used as a souvenir.
" Huh? Are you lying?" Akiko reached into her bag in bewilderment. After touching it, she confirmed that it was a real pistol.
"It's true!" Youxi exclaimed. She looked at Youxi with jealousy and said unhappily,""It's so unfair. I've been in New York for so many years, but why haven't I ever encountered such a romantic thing?”
As she spoke, she picked up the conical glass and downed the cocktail in one gulp. She placed the glass on the bar counter and asked the bartender for another glass.
"Haha." Fei Yingli saw her friend's jealous expression and smiled happily. She said,"The world is unfair ~~"
As she spoke, she picked up her conical glass and took a sip of her cocktail.
"It's really detestable. It's just like the plot in a movie. This chance encounter is too romantic.”Akiko was still immersed in this encounter. She quickly took out her phone from her bag and said,"No, I must remember this plot!”
Fei Yingli looked at Akiko tapping away on her phone and couldn't help but laugh.""What's wrong? Are you planning to make movies in the future?"
"Why not?" Akiko raised her head and winked at Fei Yingli. She smiled and said,"People have to have dreams, don't they? Otherwise, it would be meaningless to live in a muddleheaded state.”
Seeing that Akiko was still as energetic as when she was young, Fei Yingli couldn't help but feel a little envious.""You're still as energetic as before. You're successful in your career and have a harmonious family…unlike me.”
At this point, she felt a little down. She took a sip of the cocktail and placed it on the bar counter, signaling the bartender to add more wine.
Arisu noticed that Fei Yingli was not in a good mood. She put away her phone and comforted her,""What's wrong with you? You are now the most famous female lawyer in Japan, the undefeated queen. He's the idol of so many girls!"
"I'm an undefeatable queen at work, but at home, I'm a complete loser.”Fei Yingli leaned on the bar counter and buried her head in her arms. Her tone was rather downcast.
Akiko was at a loss for words. She didn't know how to comfort her good friend and could only reach out to pat her back.
There were some words that she had kept in her heart for a long time and did not know if she should say them.
But when she saw how much pain Yingli was in, she suddenly felt that she had to say it.
Therefore, Akiko said softly,""I say, Yingli, are you going to live separately from Kogoro forever?”
"Or else what? "So many years have passed…" As Fei Yingli spoke, the bartender had already served the cocktail again.
After she sat down again, she took the cocktail and downed it in one breath. She said,"Besides, I've already invested all my life in the law firm.”
"Even if Kogoro wants to get back together with me, I don't have the extra energy to take care of him.”
Akiko also picked up the wine she had mixed and took a sip. She said,"In that case, why don't we just forget about the divorce?”
"Divorce?" This time, Fei Yingli raised her eyebrows and her expression stiffened.
"Yeah, instead of dragging it out and making everyone feel uncomfortable, it's better to get a divorce.”Akiko did not look at Fei Yingli's expression. This time, she wanted to say everything she wanted to say."Besides, Xiaolan has grown up…She's a sensible child and will understand you.”
"No, you're wrong." Fei Yingli's eyes dimmed. She said,""What Xiaolan wants is a complete family…I can't do it, but I don't want to destroy that child's dream either. All these years, I've owed her too much.”
"…" Arisu was silent. She didn't know what to do in this situation.
However, she didn't want to think too much. She was selfish and only thought about Fei Yingli. She wanted to help her good friend!
"It's a dream…but it's going to break eventually, right?”"The greater Xiaolan's expectations are, the greater her disappointment will be.”
"I know…it's good that I'm late. At least, before that child finds someone he can rely on, this dream can't be shattered.”Fei Yingli swirled her wine glass and said in a low voice.
"…Sometimes, I really wish that you could be more selfish, Yingli.”Akiko sighed.
"I'm already very selfish," Fei Yingli said with a smile.”
Akiko didn't say anything. She just silently raised her wine glass and said,""Then I hope you can leave this whirlpool soon and start your life anew.”
"Thank you for your kind words." Fei Yingli chuckled, picked up the wine glass, and knocked it against the glass, making a crisp sound.
The two of them downed the wine.
Just as the two of them put down their glasses, the blond bartender brought two more cocktails and placed them in front of them. He chuckled and said in fluent Japanese,"This cup is my treat for the two of you. I hope you can accept it.”
"Oh, since it's a gift from little brother, I won't stand on ceremony.”Fei Yingli smiled and took a sip. She nodded and said,"The texture is very rich."
Akiko also picked it up and took a bite. She licked her lips and thought,""But it seems a little bitter."
The blonde bartender pushed up his glasses and looked at Yukiko with a smile.""Miss, this cup of wine is called 'sweet after bitter ends'…I wish the two of you can get rid of all your suffering and welcome your new life.”
"Oh, oh, that's a pretty good name." Akiko nodded in satisfaction and finished it in one gulp.
As soon as she put down the cone, Akiko felt a little dizzy and her eyelids were heavy.
"Hmm…why do I feel a little sleepy? Did he drink too much? Yingli." Arisu Kizi dragged her groggy head and looked over at Fei Yingli. She then realized that Fei Yingli had already collapsed.
Akiko instantly realized that something was wrong, but it was too late.
She couldn't take it anymore and fell onto the bar counter.
"I only wanted to catch you." The blonde bartender calmly wiped his glass and said,"Since your relationship is so good, let's capture them together.”
"I hope Barollo will like this gift.”
