The roar of Kiara was drowned in the soft red soil of the Upper East Side of New York.
The smell of money in the air and the conservative values adhered to by the group of Old Money seemed to intentionally or unintentionally reject this sports car upstart produced in 1997.
The silver-white body was also out of tune with the group of black luxury cars representing "order".
Rachel was sitting in the passenger seat and sulking.
How could she know that the speed limit in New York City was 30 miles per hour? Obviously she didn't mean it, but the stingy Jack drove her back to the passenger seat.
It can only be blamed on Bebes for driving too simply. She just stepped on the accelerator lightly, and Kiara got the first ticket in her car life.
"Why did you name it Kiara? Is it to commemorate a girlfriend?" Rachel propped up her chin and looked at the high-rise buildings receding outside the window, a little curious.
"Sweetheart, maybe I should take you to see a movie..." Jack smiled helplessly and told Rachel the story of "The Lion King 2".
Kiraiya is the daughter of Simba and Nala, the princess of the Pride Kingdom, and a naughty but brave little lioness.
From birth to adulthood, the King of the Pride Kingdom, her father Simba and her mother Nala have been caring for her and have never left their daughter. They also sent their good friends, Timon and Pumbaa, to take care of Kiaraiya, but the curious Kiaraiya has always longed to go out of the forest for adventure.
Finally, one time, Kiara found an opportunity to walk out of the forest and came to this desolate land, but met Gofu, the son of Scar, her father's enemy.
The two lions met and fell into the crocodile lake while playing. Kiara bravely rescued Gofu.
Rachel gradually became fascinated. Soap opera lovers like such bloody plots the most.
A few years later, Kiara grew up to be a beautiful and lovely princess, and Gaofu became a majestic lion.
But the remaining members of Scar placed their hopes of regaining the throne on Gaofu. In the face of love and power, Gaofu chose Kiara. Finally, with the efforts of Kiara and Gaofu, all the remaining members of Scar changed their minds and submitted to Simba's rule.
A very old-fashioned happy ending of Disney.
After the story was told, Kiara just arrived at the destination.
After the two got out of the car, Rachel looked at Jack expectantly: "And then what?"
"And then they lived happily together." Jack closed the car door and smiled.
Although "The Lion King 2" was not as successful as the first one in terms of original soundtrack, visual design, and scene arrangement, Jack preferred the fairy tale and romanticism presented in "The Lion King 2".
Only children need to be tempered and suffer. Who wants to go to work every day?
After listening to Jack's description, Rachel was a little moved: "Please help me rent the DVD when you have time."
"Yes, now, let's fill our stomachs first."
As he said this, Jack pushed open a small shop on the street and smiled.
As soon as he entered the door, a strong smellThe aroma of cream hits the face, and people who order have been winding to the door.
"I want to lose weight, and you still take me to eat dessert..." Rachel rolled her eyes at him and looked at the table next to her with some struggle.
The sunlight outside the window sprinkled into the retro-decorated store through the colored glass. The rich cream mixed with the mellow and intoxicating aroma of cocoa beans, and the bagels sprinkled with sesame seeds exuded an alluring aroma.
Rachel, who kept preparing herself mentally, glanced at the menu on the table inadvertently, and was instantly attracted by a word on the menu.
When she saw the word, Rachel covered her mouth and looked back at Jack in disbelief.
When she came in, she didn't notice the name of this dessert shop at all. Now she knows that it is Serendipity 3.
This is a very special and famous dessert shop. Many tourists from all over the world are willing to wait to taste the special desserts here.
Rachel has seen the introduction of this shop in a fashion magazine.
The magazine said that Serendipity 3 had received many celebrities. She had forgotten the names of the others, but she only remembered that Marilyn Monroe had also been to this dessert shop.
The magazine also said that the word "Serendipity" in the name of the shop could not be explained even in ordinary English dictionaries. Only in more difficult dictionaries could a small string of letters express its meaning - "a very sweet, destined accident, which finally had a happy ending."
But for Jack, it was much easier to understand. Serendipity is what is often said - fate, and it represents good fate, not bad fate.
He remembered that a romantic comedy named "Serendipity" should be released in three years. The Chinese translation seems to be called - "Fate is Destined"
"The manager is my friend. I finally asked him to save a seat for me..."
Jack pulled out the sign "Mr. M's Reservation" on the empty table next to him, pulled out a chair and gestured for him to sit down.
Rachel struggled for 0.1 seconds and sat down, completely forgetting about losing weight and gaining weight.
Come on, this is the best dessert shop in New York. If you want to eat Serendipity 3 ice cream, you have to queue for at least 40 minutes.
The menu is printed with various interesting cartoon characters and desserts.
Looking at the desserts on the menu, Rachel had some difficulty choosing.
Apple cinnamon ice cream, apricot honey ice cream...
She wanted to eat all the fascinating desserts.
"Two frozen hot and cold chocolate ice creams, one classic New York cheesecake."
Seeing that Rachel had not made a decision, Jack smiled and called the waiter over to order, and did not forget to explain to Rachel: "These are their two best things."
Rachel has a sweet tooth, which just matches the sweetness of Serendipity 3.
Two servings of ice cream and one cake totalSixty dollars was much more expensive than the average dessert shop, but Jack calmly put the money on the tray, and was generous for once, putting a 20% tip.
"Oh my god, what day is today!?"
Today, Jack seemed to be a completely different person. He spent a lot of money on a car and treated her to ice cream so generously that Rachel hurriedly hugged him and said, "Dear..."
Last night, she felt something was wrong when Jack said those words. In addition, his abnormal behavior today was very similar to what she saw in TV dramas, where people with incurable diseases were retaliating and saying goodbye to their death.
No wonder Jack, who always cared about the title of "Party King", suddenly gave up. It turned out to be like this...
The more he thought about Rachel, the more he felt like her, and tears slowly filled his eyes.
"???"
Jack naturally didn't know what Rachel was thinking at the moment.
He looked at the girl sobbing in his arms in confusion. He didn't understand why she was so moved after eating ice cream.
"What's wrong with you? I told you that this won't work for me. If you want to eat, go and order it yourself."
"Do you have cancer or leukemia? Whatever it is, I and everyone else will support you behind your back..." Rachel raised her head, her face full of tears, and looked at Jack's face reluctantly.
