Day Nine.
As usual, today is the day Lin Yi delivers the drawings to Mingmei.
Moreover, this isn't just an ordinary day.
It's the day Lin Yi attempts his first conquest!
Today is a day worth commemorating...
As before, Lin Yi called Mingmei and asked her to come out to see the drawings.
"Just come to my place..." Mingmei said.
See, when it comes to going to her place, once there's a first time, there will be a second, and after the second, there will be countless times.
"Okay..."
Lin Yi didn't waste any words and, as usual, went to buy a bottle of red wine.
He had just entered the store.
When the clerk proactively brought out the bottle of red wine he usually buys.
This made Lin Yi quite happy, he felt it was a good omen, so he gave the clerk a bigger tip than usual.
Taking a taxi, he arrived at Mingmei's house.
Lin Yi rang the doorbell, repeatedly going over his plan in his head.
Actually, there wasn't much of a plan.
After all, he had already laid the groundwork for many storylines in advance, so whatever happened would be perfectly logical.
Like making a deep impression on the first meeting, then showcasing his own charm, followed by spending a long time together.
If she were an ordinary supporting character, this routine would definitely lead to a successful conquest, with several cannonballs already fired.
However, because of his wife, Mingmei didn't want to do anything that would betray her sisters, which increased the difficulty of the conquest.
But, that's okay!
Lin Yi enjoys doing things that are challenging.
He's too lazy to do things that aren't challenging now.
Soon, the door opened.
"Come in."
Seeing that Mingmei was wearing pajamas today, Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat.
A man comes to a woman's house, and she's wearing pajamas.
This is a very good sign.
Mingmei was wearing ordinary pajamas, loose and comfortable pajamas.
This shows that she has already lowered her guard against Lin Yi and trusts him.
If it were the kind of pajamas that particularly emphasized her figure, it would already be a hint.
Although Lin Yi hasn't received professional training, he also knows that animals don't strike until the last moment when hunting!
He's the same, he won't strike unless he's absolutely sure.
Entering the living room, Mingmei took the red wine and drawing tube from Lin Yi's hands, then she gestured for Lin Yi to sit down on the sofa: "Just sit down."
Lin Yi hummed and sat down.
He began to think about what he should say later to create an ambiguous atmosphere, then stir up emotions, and finally, the two of them would develop a cliché love story reasonably.
"Here."
Mingmei walked over with two glasses of red wine, handing one to Lin Yi and sitting down on the same sofa with the other.
"This is the last one... the key points have been covered, now it's time to take action."
"Then let's wish our operation success in advance."
Mingmei raised her glass and lightly clinked it against Lin Yi's glass.
Watching Mingmei drink a third of the red wine in one gulp, Lin Yi suddenly felt that something was wrong.
He took a small sip and then put the glass on the table.
"Oh, right, I have something to give you."
Lin Yi said, taking an envelope out of his pocket and handing it to Mingmei.
"This is..." Mingmei put down her glass, took the envelope, and took out the contents to look at.
It turned out to be photos!
All beautiful photos of Mingmei.
Under the guidance and cooperation of his wife, Lin Yi learned how to take pictures.
He picked out the best-looking photos from the camera, slightly Photoshopped them, and then had them printed.
"Thank you."
Mingmei was also a little happy to see her photos, she flipped through the photos one by one and said, "You know what? Lin Yi... over the years, you're still the first person to take so many photos of me, thank you."
"You're welcome," Lin Yi replied.
Mingmei put the photos aside, picked up the wine glass again, and took another big sip.
"Although I haven't known you for very long, I know you are a very considerate person."
Akemi put her feet on the sofa and rested her head on her knees.
She tilted her head and said to Lin Yi, "Sometimes... I really envy Kana. She's so lucky to have a boyfriend as good as you. She's really too happy."
If you knew that this was just the tip of my iceberg... you probably wouldn't think that way.
"You're thinking too much... I'm actually not as good as you imagine. I also have many bad qualities, but they just haven't been revealed yet."
Lin Yi replied truthfully, subtly implying that he wouldn't mind having an affair or something.
"Don't be so modest."
Akemi took another sip of red wine, looked at the glass, and said leisurely, "Whether you're good or not, I've had a direct feeling these past few days. If you're not considered good... then there probably aren't any good men in the world."
That's right, my itinerary these past few days has been specially designed for you, how could it not be good?
"Ah... I'm sorry."
Akemi suddenly came back to her senses and said apologetically, "Suddenly saying these things to you."
"You seem to have something on your mind. Can you tell me about it?"
Lin Yi quickly noticed that Akemi's emotions were a little off.
Akemi finished the red wine in her glass in one gulp, then poured herself another glass and said, "I... really envy Kana."
"Being able to meet someone who would risk everything for her."
"… … … … … …"
I'm not that noble... …
Lin Yi picked up his wine glass and took a small sip.
"I've suddenly discovered something during this time."
Akemi said here, then drank the red wine in large gulps: "I seem to have fallen in love with someone I can't love?"
This is definitely a hint! The person you're talking about is me, right?
Lin Yi pretended not to know: "Can't love?"
Akemi glanced at Lin Yi, then brushed her hair behind her ear: "Because of many reasons... In short, I just can't love."
With that, Akemi took another sip of red wine.
Just as Lin Yi was about to say something, Akemi raised her glass and said, "Tonight... let's not talk so much, just drink with me."
"Yeah."
Lin Yi nodded, then picked up his glass and drank with Akemi glass after glass.
He had the skill of never getting drunk, so naturally he wasn't afraid of outdrinking Akemi.
Drinking was like drinking water, gulp, gulp, gulp, gone in no time.
Akemi didn't hesitate either, glass after glass, she drank most of the whole bottle of red wine by herself.
Lin Yi hadn't even done anything yet, and she had already gotten herself drunk.
