Chapter 33 The Clouds Return
On July 21, the sky in Shanhai City was clear, and in the gold-plated particles of the morning light, when you go out and take a breath, the cool air seems to be able to penetrate your lungs.
Cheng Ran and Yu Xiao met in the middle of the courtyard, walked out of the courtyard gate, and after two blocks, outside the famous casserole rice noodles in the mountains and seas, they saw Liu Ying and Yao Beibei waving to them in the morning. Between the two waving their arms, Jiang Hongshao appeared behind him and a group of people sitting there flipping through the menu.
On the street behind you was the sound of passing bicycles, bells, and traffic. It can be placed in Yu Xiao's ears at this time, no less than the adrenaline-pumping machine gunners in StarCraft, the siege tanks set up 120mm plasma cannons, and the ghost atomic bombers locked the "nuclear launch detected!" after the release! , However, the final boss in the glass window, Lao Jiang, did not move, she was wearing a sports thin jacket with slightly wide sleeves, the side hair on both sides of the jawline that was as neat as a knife was tied at the back of her head, and a red and black bow was tied between them, and the black hair naturally hung down her shoulders, looking at them, as if the world could be reduced to silence.
The casserole rice noodle shop is very famous, it is an old house renovation, there is a lot of space inside, and the outside is trendy with a floor-to-ceiling glass, and you can see the inside through the glass.
There were more people in the morning, but they still occupied a whole long table, Jiang Hongshao had four friends around her, it should be her friends who came from Rongcheng, at this time, they almost cut off all the free space around her, and Yao Beibei Liuying sat opposite each other, and two places were left next to the two women, which were prepared for them.
When Cheng Ran and Yu Xiao walked into the store, Lao Jiang also raised his head and looked at the two of them at the same time, and when he met Cheng Ran's eyes, his eyes flickered, and he looked at him from top to bottom, which was the same as Cheng Ran's gaze, but Lao Jiang could still say with a face like a flat lake, "What do you want to eat, I'll give you something?"
Yu Xiao is heart is ups and downs, although I have also seen her photos in the window, but after all, it can't be compared with the real person, I haven't seen her for a year, and now Lao Jiang has a feeling of being reborn, it is difficult to say which aspect, temperament, figure, and appearance...... It simply made him involuntarily think of Cheng Ran's in-depth discussion of her politeness and small exploration on the eve of graduating from junior high school, whether she has ass or breasts......
Cheng Ran shouted "braised beef rice noodles", sat down on the stool, and was about to get up to pay the bill in a chic manner, but Jiang Hongshao took the first step, added the order for the two of them to the boss, took out a black wallet from his pocket to buy the order, turned his head and said to Cheng Ran, "I'm in for a treat today." ”
Cheng Ran's action of planning to pay the bill made a short-haired boy in a hoodie next to Jiang Hongshao stunned, as if Cheng Ran's action had robbed them of their demeanor, and he immediately said, "It's your turn to buy it...... I was going to buy it and she pressed it down, come on, don't take the initiative today...... Since Red Peony said it, she won't let us pay a penny......" He said joking as if to increase the atmosphere, "but I can rest assured that she has an activity fund." It seems to show a very good relationship with Jiang Hongshao.
Here in the Fulong Compound, it was a little embarrassing, Jiang Hongshao smiled and lightly revealed it, and then introduced these four people to Yu Xiaochengran, the short-headed boy is called Luo Wei, and his personality is more jumpy, and the boy next to him who wears gold-rimmed glasses and narrow eyes is called Shu Jiexi, compared with Luo Wei's personality, he is introverted and low-key. One of the two girls on the left is thin, but the one who is very good at the old ginger in terms of appearance is called Su Hongdou, with a graceful and clear appearance, and the other is a girl with two braids, slightly fat, but with a good voice and a very bold look, called Marco.
But in fact, during the whole process, Cheng Ran didn't listen to who was who among the four people, and there was a feeling that listening to her voice was unreal.
And Jiang Hongshao introduced it to the back, and obviously also discovered Cheng Ran's imagery, and his voice was a little quieter.
It's just that no one felt this peculiar atmosphere between the two.
Liu Ying and Yao Beibei remained silent, obviously knowing the four of them before. The girl named Marco dangled her braids and said, "Originally, we still have one person, but she also has friends on this side of the mountains and seas, so she won't act with us and get away from the masses!"
Then this group of men and women focused on criticizing that person, a group of people should talk and laugh with each other, and the relationship between them in the circle of ten middle schools was undoubtedly revealed, and this relationship was centered on Lao Jiang as the core cohesion.
This also seems to be a result that does not need to be guessed to know.
After ordering, it is waiting time, there can be six people sitting on one side of this long table, Jiang Hongshao is sitting in the middle, and the other four people are sitting on her left and right, and there is an empty seat on the far right.
Liu Ying and Yao Beibei sat on the right side of face to face with her, and when Cheng Ran and her looked at each other when they entered the door, Yu Xiao took the first step and sat on the left opposite her, and Cheng Ran naturally could only take another position and occupy a place diagonally with her.
In fact, Jiang Hongshao and his party arrived last night, and after they arrived, they settled down, these people actually came to play with their parents, and they also came to contact Li Jingping and his wife, probably between adults, so they made an appointment to be led by Jiang Hongshao to come out to play.
Yesterday, when Jiang Hongshao arrived, she called him to make an appointment with this famous casserole rice noodle the next morning, because she also had a lot of things to deal with there, so the call was in a hurry.
But Cheng Ran actually didn't sleep well overnight, it was a very unique feeling, even if he lived in two lives, he might not be able to suppress this emotion of seeing each other again after a year, so he didn't fall asleep until the second half of the night, and when he woke up and heard Yu Xiao's knock on the door, he knew that it was close to the appointed time, I am afraid that Liu Ying Yao Beibei and Jiang Hongshao would have reconciled.
When looking in the mirror, Cheng Ran still had dark circles around the edge of his eyes.
And at this moment, on the diagonal side of Jiang Hongshao, you can see that even the cheek where Qing Shui comes out of the hibiscus, the color under the eye socket is a little deep.
Okay, don't look at Lao Jiang's coping at this time, the two of them were half a pound and eight taels last night.
There was a moment of silence during the waiting interval, and there was a commotion around them, but after all the distractions were gone, there seemed to be no formal dialogue between the two.
When Cheng Ran was about to say "long time no see" as the beginning, Luo Wei opened his mouth to ask Jiang Hongshao what else was delicious in Shanhai, Jiang Hongshao's eyelashes trembled slightly, and finally moved away from his direction and explained to Luo Wei beside him.
Luo Wei then served the rice noodle bowl and ate it, Jiang Hongshao was slightly empty, his eyes moved to him, and Marco next to him pulled her to talk about the matter of Shizhong, and Jiang Hongshao, who was eager to talk to Cheng Ran, responded to Marco again.
Then it seemed that there was no chance, everyone's bowls were up, the atmosphere was warm, and some people said, "This Shaozi rice noodle is very good!
Jiang Hongshao smiled, "Yes, when I used to go to school in Shanhai, I would come over occasionally, and I liked their Shaozi with pork ribs rice noodles very much......"
A group of people were full of praise, on the long table, the hot soup was rising, and the light and shadow of the early morning shone in through the glass window, Jiang Hongshao stretched out her hand to pull her sideburns, leaned over to eat, and chatted with others from time to time, taking care of everyone present, like a breeze.
However, through the heat of the rice noodle shop at this time, Cheng Ran felt that it was really ...... Although he had imagined in his mind many times what the two might look like when they met, no matter how bloody it was or as bizarre as the TV series, he didn't follow the script......
In the end, I didn't expect that the real meeting would be like this. It was just an ordinary rice noodle shop, and she and her friends had an appointment with them, gathered together, and ate delicious food, with 80,000 light bulbs between them.
However, they all seemed to penetrate the hustle and bustle and quietly looked at each other.
I haven't seen it for a year, Lao Jiang's unearthly taste has become more and more prominent, since high school, Cheng Ran has found that he has grown a head, half a head higher than Yu Xiaochao, who was as tall as him before.
However, it seems that no matter how much she rushes up, Jiang Hongshao seems to have the potential to catch up...... At this moment, Cheng Ran had a lot of thoughts, did he eat too well, did he exercise to be more symmetrical...... Should it be long......
Obviously, the two of them have almost nothing to talk about in the exchange of phone calls and letters, and they can't be more acquainted with each other.
However, in front of such a close distance, it is like a stranger to meet for the first time.
When you look up, you look away. When everyone talks about a topic, they smile at each other and look at each other, and they will subconsciously hang their heads.
A week earlier, they had discussed the importance of innovation on the phone.
Cheng Ran gave some examples to illustrate how to rely on innovation to find an entry point on a battlefield that has formed an established pattern, he used the example of Fu Long, and also took the example of Japanese automobiles relying on the invention of cup holders to enter the American market, and by the way, he also said a small paragraph to find a point of demand, saying that "when a man or woman falls in love, if she is not deeply involved in the world, take her to see the prosperity of the world; if her heart has been vicissitudes, take her to ride the merry-go-round." On the other hand, a woman to a man is to untie his clothes if he is in love with him, and if he has read countless people, you will be on the stove by the stove......"
When she said this at the time, Jiang Hongshao commented calmly, "The words are not rough...... But why do I want to give you an over-the-shoulder throw?"
However, now, this kind of two people who can talk about the topic of blushing without changing their faces and their hearts without beating through the phone and letters, after actually looking at the meeting across the mountains and seas, what is the feeling of smiling indifferently and flashing their purpose through the crowd?
