Giana suggested, “How about we go to a restaurant together and eat?”
“Sure, let’s go Dutch,” a colleague agreed.
Some colleagues were worried about their children at home, so they politely declined.
Giana held my hand and asked, “Katrina, what about you? Do you want to come with us to the nearby restaurant and then go home?”
“Sure!” I responded, speaking gently. “Let’s not go Dutch, after we finish the meal, let’s bring the receipt back to the company for reimbursement.”

The dim yellow light of the street lamp fell on him, dressed in a long–sleeved black shirt and black trousers. He had a tall and sturdy figure, with a handsome and elegant appearance.

I felt a slight nervousness in my heart, “Hmm.”
Professor Smith chuckled and quipped, “Mr. Barton, are you wanting to join us for dinner at the restaurant? Or are you here specifically to pick up your wife for a romantic evening together?”
