422. Tailgating
"Lyus, what are you doing?!"
For three days in a row, Guo Yongkun was all in the air, and he was slightly on fire.
Didn't he arrive at the place at 7:10 in the morning on the first day, thinking it was late, so he arrived at 6:30 the next day, but he still didn't see anyone.
Today he was ruthless, he came before dawn, and he kept the cat until 10 o'clock in the morning, and in the end he didn't even see a single human hair of Liuis.
The Liu family must live in this community, and they can't be wrong.
Because in his previous life, when Guo Yongkun went to Liu's house, he saw a lot of old photos, including the kind that Liu Yisi took in the community when she was a child, and their family lived in this community for decades, and Liu Yisi grew up here.
If there is any butterfly effect because of him, it is even more impossible.
It was the first time in his life that he had come back to Shenhai, and he had never met the Liu family before.
Guo Yongkun stepped down from the cab, squatted on the curb at the bottom of a plane tree, smoked two cigarettes in one breath, and hesitated to find the door.
For a moment, thoughts flowed in my head, such as identities disguised as checking water meters.
But in the end, I gave up.
Again, if it wasn't necessary, he wouldn't have touched Lywi in this life.
It was precisely because of this thought that he felt a little guilty, such as the feeling of abandoning his family and children, so he was determined to see if the other party was okay.
"I don't believe it!"
Guo Yongkun said viciously. Sit back in the car and prepare to die.
And this is the whole day, except for one time in the middle where he couldn't hold his attention back, and ran to the roadside public toilet about 80 meters away for convenience, which took about 5 minutes, he never left the gate of the community.
By this time, it was nearly dusk.
The flow of people on the street has increased significantly, and bicycles have been lined up one after another.
The people who had worked all day were out of work, but Lyuise still didn't show up!
"Could it be that she really happens to have something, such as a business trip and is not in Shenhai?"
Guo Yongkun forced his sore eyes through the car window, and his brows were tightly locked.
He decided to wait.
Anyway, if you wait all day, it's not bad for this effort.
The sky was getting dark, and the street lights were lit up by half-past six in the evening.
"Huh?"
A scene at the gate that caught Guo Yongkun's attention was a middle-aged man pushing a bicycle and wearing blue overalls, who walked out of the community and happened to meet an acquaintance, and the two were talking.
At this time, because it happened to be a meal, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and it became quiet from noisy, so even if he was sitting in the car, through the half-open window, Guo Yongkun could hear their words.
"Lao Zhao, it's another night shift. ”
"No, the factory is now engaged in foreign trade, small profits but quick turnover, orders have been increasing, three shifts are too busy, and people are killed. ”
"I said that you just don't know the blessing in the blessing, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, think about our units that are not efficient, and there are still wages in arrears. You're now over 200 a month, aren't you?"
"Hehe, almost......"
That's right, listening to the conversation between the two, Guo Yongkun couldn't help patting his head.
It is likely that Lyuis did not work during the day at all, but worked the night shift!
Now the unit factory competition pressure is very great, a mind to find a way to surpass peers, many units aim at foreign trade or OEM this cake, two shifts or three shifts has been the norm.
It must be so!
After thinking about this, Guo Yongkun let out a long breath and cheered up again.
About 20 minutes later, a shadow appeared at the entrance of the slightly dim community, pushing a black two-four bicycle.
Wearing a fashionable red plaid long skirt with a corseted waist, she carries a red leather bag on her left shoulder.
Almost only from this meter-six-eight, curvaceous figure, Guo Yongkun recognized the other party.
After all, it's a couple who share the same bed.
"It's really a night shift. ”
Guo Yongkun was not in a hurry to do anything, hiding in the dark, quietly looking at each other with the help of the light of the street lamps and the large lights at the entrance of the community.
Liu Yisi, who is only 22 years old, looks much younger than when the two met, and her hair is not the big waves of the shawl that she has always liked, but a shoulder-length straight hair.
The cheeks don't look so full, they need to be leaner, and they can be covered with a single slap.
Although it also wears makeup, it is very light, less enchanting and charming, and more pure than Guo Yongkun has never seen.
He suddenly felt his heart beat faster.
This does not bode well.
It's a heartbeat feeling, yes, Lywis's dish is his, if it weren't for that, he wouldn't have married her in the first place.
What struck him the most was her big eyes with long eyelashes.
Clear, smart, charming, seductive, as if able to speak.
It was only after many years that he understood that a woman who is his wife is still second in appearance.
Liuis's biggest flaw is that she loves herself more than anything else.
She can refuse to have children for the sake of beauty and figure.
She is never soft on buying all kinds of famous brands, but she never thinks about buying a dress for her husband when she goes to the mall.
This is also the reason why Guo Yongkun is so cautious in pleasing his daughter-in-law in his life, especially after experiencing the relationship with Ye Qingcicada.
There is no shortage of beautiful girls around him, but it is difficult to understand whether the hearts of those girls are as beautiful and lovely as their appearances.
In this life, he wants to marry a wife who can get along with each other, not a princess or a daughter.
At this time, Liu Yisi had already ridden the bicycle and gradually walked away to the opposite street, Guo Yongkun took two deep breaths, started the car, deliberately kept a certain distance, and followed unhurriedly.
Judging by her dress, she shouldn't be tired from work.
So Guo Yongkun wants to know what he is doing, if he is as decent as he imagined and the salary is good, this should be the last time the two will meet.
"It's a long way off. ”
After following for about ten minutes, the fashionable girl in front of her had no intention of stopping.
At this time, it has entered the Huangpu District, look at this direction, and then you will reach the Bund.
After a long while, Guo Yongkun, who was driving, was surprised: "Really to the Bund?"
Look in this direction.
But there are no unit factories on the Bund, and they are still the kind that work at night.
So, working at a hotel on the Bund?
Looking at Liu Yisi's dress, as well as her beautiful appearance, figure, including temperament, it is really possible.
As if to test Guo Yongkun's idea, the bicycle girl walked all the way, taking a shortcut from a small fork in the road to the north side of the Bund, and finally stopped in front of a brightly lit building.
Guo Yongkun also slowly stopped the car along the side of the road, his neck stretched, and he looked up through the front windshield-
Pujiang Hotel.
This hotel is bigger, more than a grade higher than the Dongfeng Hotel where he is staying now, whether in terms of scale, grade, or history.
This year...... No, it should be said that for more than a century, it has been the best hotel on the Bund, not one of them.
The reason why Guo Yongkun did not stay here was purely because it was too troublesome, because it was close to the Baidu Bridge, a landmark building in Shenhai, north of the Bund, and it was farther from the branch of Kaiyuan Land than the Dongfeng Hotel.
Pujiang Hotel, formerly known as "Licha Hotel", existed in the Qing Daoguang period and now has a history of 150 years.
It is the first hotel in the modern sense of the word, and the whole presents a kind of British Victorian Baroque architecture.
The first electric light in our country was lit here.
Our country's first telephone was connected here.
China's first semi-sound open-air film from the West was unveiled here.
The first ballroom balls in our country were held here.
That is, in 1897, Cixi's 60th birthday, in order to connect with the world, a grand ball was held.
If Liu Yisi has a job here, then Guo Yongkun really has nothing to worry about, and the salary level is definitely not low.
Lyuise pedaled her bicycle to the back of the hotel, and it was understandable that the staff would not be able to enter through the front door.
Guo Yongkun didn't follow, because it was too obvious, and after hesitating for a moment, he stepped out of the car and walked towards the glittering and brightly lit gate of the Pujiang Hotel.
Wanting to know more is one reason, and one more point -
He was hungry.
Pity him for the whole day today, but he ate two buns in the morning.
"Welcome. ”
There is a warm reception from the welcoming lady with a red cheongsam at the door, and the grade is indeed different. I knew that Guo Yongkun might really stay here. Mainly, he has never been to the Pujiang Hotel in this year.
After all, the house is old in the future, even if it has been renovated and decorated, but compared with those professional international hotels, there is still a big gap.
"Pls sir is accommodation or ......"
"Meals. Without waiting for the welcome lady to finish asking, Guo Yongkun replied with a smile.
"Okay, this way, please. ”
The restaurant is on the second floor of the hotel, Guo Yongkun walked through the lobby and walked slowly up the stairs according to the guidance of the welcome lady.
In the process, he noticed a closed hall on the side, and couldn't help but look twice.
Compared to the slightly deserted first floor, the second floor is lively, and under the illumination of the gorgeous crystal lamp group in this year, there are really many diners in the open restaurant.
Foreigners who are rare to see outside can also be seen everywhere here.
The Chinese sitting here must be dressed in straight suits, and many people have a domineering big brother on the dining table.
Nearly 8 p.m., the restaurant still has more than 60% occupancy.
Guo Yongkun found a quiet corner and sat down, and soon a thoughtful-looking young waiter in a decent blue overalls came over with a menu to entertain him.
There's no Chinese food for dinner here, can you believe it?
made Guo Yongkun want to make a sauce elbow, and then the idea of a little wine was in vain.
Shenhai vegetables are sweet, do anything
