When she hung up the phone, Shen Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "CottonClub? That's 'Cotton Club'. The name of this bar is very familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere."

Mao Yuan carried two food bags in her left and right hands and walked to the entrance of the corridor of Unit [-].Looking back at her, he asked softly, "Hey, what are you thinking? Can't you find a place to go?"

Shen Xiaoxiao picked up the food bag on the ground and shook her head at her, "No, I just think the name of the bar is very familiar."

Seeing that she seemed to follow her upstairs, Mao Yuan quickly said, "Okay, you can go and play with your friends. I can still climb these few floors."

"It's okay, I'll just carry the things to the door for you."

"Did I hear you right? When you arrive at my door, you don't come in and sit?"

"No, thank you, Mao Yuan."

Two minutes later, the two stood in front of a house on the left side of the fifth floor.Mao Yuan rang the doorbell a few times, and her mother opened the door, "Oh, you came back early today."

Mao Yuan passed the things in her hand to her mother, "I'm exhausted, you take it first."

The mother looked at Shen Xiaoxiao who was standing next to her daughter, and asked repeatedly, "Who is this little girl? She is quite beautiful and well dressed. Is she your classmate?"

Mao Yuan picked up the thing in Xiaoxiao's hand and replied, "Mom, let me introduce you, this is Xiaoxiao."

After introducing Shen Xiaoxiao to his mother, he said to her, "You really don't want to come in?"

Xiao Xiao smiled and shook her head, "Thank you, I have to go."

Then he said to Mao Yuan's mother, "I'm sorry, ma'am. I have something to do tonight, so I won't bother you."

"Hey, come here, come in and have a drink."

"Thank you, ma'am. Mao Yuan, see you later."

"Be careful on your way."

"Understood." After finishing the short novel, she turned around and walked downstairs quickly.

Mao Yuan closed the door behind her backhand, changed her shoes and walked towards the living room.At this time, several questions suddenly popped up in my mother's heart.However, she still decided to use these four food bags as an example first, "What's wrong with you today? After shopping around 'Shao Wansheng' from inside to outside, and then bought a lot of snacks back!?"

Mao Yuan felt that her mother was a bit long-winded, but she still said, "I'm fine, and it's not that I have too much money and nowhere to spend it. Today, I found a part-time job."

"Oh, found a part-time job? Even if you find a part-time job, you can't spend so much money?"

"Mom, I didn't spend any money. These things were all given to me by my friends."

"From your friend? That little girl with dyed hair just now? Why haven't I seen your friend before? Why did she send you so many snacks?"

While Mao Yuan was busy explaining the origin of the snacks to her mother, Xiao Xiao was already heading towards Fuxing West Road in a taxi.People are sitting in the back seat, but their minds are not idle.Suddenly, she yelled, "Ah, I'vegotit! (Ha, I remembered!)"

It was about ten minutes away from Nanchangyuan to Fuxing West Road. Xiao Xiao quickly followed the taxi driver's guidance to find the bar that Zhou Lin mentioned.Walking out of the street window of the bar, when I looked up, I saw the big signboard with the words "CottonClub".

The left neighbor of the bar is a bakery, and the right one is a hot pot restaurant.Even standing at the intersection of Fuxing West Road, it is easy to be overlooked at a glance.Although it gives people a sense of decline and decline in the new century, this does not affect its popularity in the Shanghai beach bar circle.

Entering an alley along the door of the restaurant on the right, Shen Xiaoxiao found the door of the bar and walked in.The receptionist at the door greeted him, "Ma'am, do you have a reserved seat?"

"Uh, no."

"I'm sorry, but there are no seats available now, except for reserved ones."

"Thank you for reminding me, I have a companion at the bar."

"Oh, that's right. Well, please come with me."

When she walked to the inside of the bar, she found that there were many posters of American jazz masters hung on the wall that were unconventionally embedded in square brown wooden frames.Thinking, "That's right, this is the most American blues jazz bar in Shanghai."

"However, over the years I have not been very interested in blues music."

"Why do these guys come here to drink?"

While thinking secretly, she was guided into the performance area from the porch along the curved bar by the receptionist.Looking around, she found that the environment here is very elegant, and the reddish-brown round table, wall panels and bar counter give people a sense of unity in style.In the entire performance area, there is no wanton exaggeration or exaggeration, and there is no redundant arrangement, everything is so appropriate.

This time is the prime time for customers in the bar.In addition, this is a jazz bar known for its strength, so it has a lot of loyal regulars.Looking up, Xiao Xiao saw that almost every seat outside the performance area was filled with fans who were drinking, gathering or listening to blues and jazz.

"Where is your friend sitting, ma'am?" asked the receptionist.

"Uh, I don't know. Please wait, I'll make a call." Xiao Xiao told the truth and took out the phone from her bag.

"Ma'am, someone from the seat on the left side of the performance area is waving at us. Is it your friend?" The receptionist found several people waving in his direction in the distance.

"That's right, it's them. Thank you." Xiao Xiao saw Shen Ying standing among them, and said affirmatively.

Shen Xiaoxiao walked to the black corner leather sofa seat where Shen Ying, Zhou Lin, and two male friends were sitting.Zhou Lin laughed loudly and stood up, walked to her side and shouted, "Oh, my sister-in-law with super personality is here!"

After hugging him, greeting each other, introducing new friends, and taking a seat, Zhou Lin asked Xiaoxiao next to him with great enthusiasm, "Hey, why are you here now? We've already had two rounds of wine."

"I'm sorry for the delay. Well, the wine you drank is my treat."

"Hehehe... The attitude is quite sincere! However, you don't need to treat this wine."

"Well, since I don't need a treat, I'll have a drink."

Shen Ying deliberately booed at the side and said, "How about just one drink? Not to mention the two of us, even my two friends have been waiting for you for a long time."

Shen Xiaoxiao glanced at him, "What are you doing? You want to get me drunk, and then take the opportunity to teach me a lesson?"

A man named Gu Hongkai sitting on the outside smiled and said, "Miss Shen, your elder brother is just joking with you. Drink as much as you want, you can drink whatever you want, don't worry about us."

Xiao Xiao was noncommittal, but said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu.
