Chapter 98: Reject Her, Accept Her
Seeing that I suddenly had a phone call, Yang Fan looked at him vigilantly like a rabbit with pricked up ears, I pushed him aside in disgust, and then got up and walked to the balcony to answer the phone.
"You, have you eaten?" Han Yue's tone seemed to be a little wrong.
I looked at the time on my watch, it was already past nine o'clock, how could it be that I hadn't eaten yet, so she asked this just to foreshadow what she wanted to say to me later.
In order not to make the chat so embarrassing, I still patiently replied: "Eat, what's wrong?"
She was silent for a while, I could hear her slight and steady breathing on the phone, she took a breath and said to me as if she had made a decision: "That's the case, I want to ask you if you have time for next week's Qixi Festival?"
I couldn't help but "chuckle" in my heart, why is it Valentine's Day again? No, Han Yue didn't say "Valentine's Day" to me, but said "Qixi Festival", although the two mean the same, but the way of expression is different, so that it doesn't sound so reminiscent of more, but she asked me at that time, is there something wrong?
I replied after a while: "I'm not sure if there's an arrangement, after all, it's next week, you can tell me what's going on first." ”
"On the night of the Qixi Festival, a friend of mine who is very close to me invited me to a dance party, I like to dance and I really want to go, but I lack a dance partner. ”
Although Han Yue didn't finish the second half of the sentence, I knew that she wanted me to be her dance partner. Han Yue waited silently for my answer, and I was also groaning, because I hadn't decided whether I wanted to take the order that Anne had pushed me, because once I agreed to open the "Dark Fragrance" flower shop, it would mean that I would have to stay at the event all day.
"Well, I, I'll see how the time is arranged, if it's okay, I can. "I don't know how I've gotten so nervous that I'm stammering.
"Well, but you'll have to give me an answer by noon tomorrow, because my friend needs to get the list up in advance. ”
"What?!" I said with some excitement, because this was too coincidental! Han Yue and Anne gave me the same amount of time to think about it!
"What's wrong?"
"No, it's okay, I'll give you an answer by noon tomorrow. ”
After making the call, I stood on the balcony for a while before returning to the house, but I saw that Yang Fan, the kid, was actually looking at the information that Anne gave me very seriously, and he didn't even know when he put on his glasses.
I walked over and asked, "Hey, what are you doing?"
"This person is very good at thinking, and deliberately chose to open a flower shop on Valentine's Day, and the outline of your plan is quite in line with her demands. He took off his glasses and took a sip of a cup of tea.
I walked to the sofa and sat down, looked at him with disdain, smiled and said, "What's this, there are still people who specifically pick Valentine's Day to confess! Alas, this is obviously already in love, but we have to wait until Valentine's Day to confess together." ”
"How did you know this?" Yang Fan's expression was a little surprised.
While cleaning up the documents on the table, I replied: "Because I'm Cheng Ting, don't talk about it, I'm going back to my room." ”
Back in the room, I lay on the bed with the word "big", thinking in my heart that this matter should be chosen, whether I want to take this order, or promise Han Yue to be her dance partner? You know, the price given by Anne is indeed very high, just now I counted the money in the envelope, there was 20,000 yuan, which is already a salary that is completely beyond my own ability to match, so I have to think twice.
......
It was already past ten o'clock in the morning when I woke up the next day, because I stayed up late last night and did something that could have the best of both worlds. After a quick wash, I went out.
At a coffee shop, I made an appointment to meet Anne's assistant, but this little girl was a little different from what I saw when I met yesterday, she was very well-behaved and dignified in front of Anne yesterday, but at this time she was wearing a pair of sunglasses and a pair of denim shorts, she was playing with her mobile phone, and she was waiting for me on the chair with her legs crossed.
"Well, you figured out that you're going to sign the contract, right?" she took off her sunglasses and took out a copy of the contract from the chair next to her and placed it on the table in front of me.
I smiled and didn't answer her, but asked, "What do you want to drink?" ”
She looked at me suspiciously and asked, "Really?" ”
I told the waitress that I only needed a glass of lemonade, and when he was gone, the little girl told her that her name was Lan Yu, not "little girl".
After a while, I went straight to the point and said to Lan Yu: "I've thought about it, I'm sorry, I can't take this order, but as a friend, I made a plan for you, just in the USB flash drive inside." If Miss Ann thinks it's okay, you can adopt it. Of course, you can also choose to let someone else re-engineer a project. ”
With that, I moved the bag of materials and the envelope containing the money to her, as she had done when she handed it to me last night, except that there was also a USB flash drive in the bag that I had prepared.
Lan Yu's expression was a little surprised at first, and then he looked at me with a very incomprehensible look and said, "Why? Is your brain in water? I suggest reconsidering, this remuneration is equivalent to your salary for a few months working in the company, it is tantamount to pie in the sky, I don't understand why you refuse!"
I replied with a calm smile, "Thank you, but I've thought it through." I took a sip of the lemonade I had just been delivered, and seeing that she didn't speak, I was going to leave.
When I stood up and was about to turn to leave, Lan Yu suddenly said behind me, "Aren't you curious why my sister would let you go to my sister's list?"
I was surprised, turned to look at her, and said, "Your sister?" you mean...... Anne is your sister?"
"Cousin. ”
Then I can understand why she is so "inattentive" when she sees me, because she is not only Anne's assistant, but also Anne's cousin.
I replied simply, "Because we're friends." ”
Lan Yu stood up and explained, "No, it's because you look exactly like her ex-boyfriend, and even have a similar personality. ”
"But I'm not him after all, we're not the same person, my name is Cheng Ting. ”
Lan Yu looked at me in disbelief and said, "You, you know this, but ......."
With a calm smile, I interrupted her, "It's nothing, please give these things back to her, say 'thank you' to her for me, and I'll go first." ”
After making it clear, I didn't stay too long, just left to pay, and then left the coffee shop, because I didn't want to get too entangled in this matter, let alone get involved in the relationship between Anne and Li Feiyang. So, that's why I stayed up until two o'clock last night to get the plan done, and if I refused outright, I'm afraid Anne would have other ideas.
After leaving the coffee shop and walking for a while, it was already past eleven o'clock, so I simply found a restaurant to solve the lunch by the way. While waiting for the waiter to deliver the food, I took out my mobile phone and hesitated for a while before clicking on the chat interface with Han Yue.
I simply edited a paragraph and sent it over: "On the day of the Qixi Festival, I can be your dance partner." ”
"Hmmm! thank you (cute expression). Han Yue's reply to me was almost a second reply, she said that I had to give her an answer before noon, so that is to say, she has been waiting for me to find her, for Han Yue, who rarely publishes love bags, at this time she actually added a "cute" expression to the back, which shows that she is really happy.
I looked at the screen and smiled, typing back, "But...... I didn't wear anything to the prom, what kind of clothes do I need to prepare?"
"It's okay, it's all small things, don't worry. By the way, let's do a tango at the ball, will you?"
I recalled that in addition to playing guitar in college, I also learned some dance, and I still remember that there was a New Year's Day party, in order to meet the needs of being Su Jing's dance partner, I deliberately learned a little, but too much time has passed, and I have to practice again.
Putting away the scattered memories, I replied, "I used to learn a little, but I haven't skipped it for a long time, and it's a little rusty." ”
"There's still a few days to go, so you have to hurry up and practice. ”
"No problem. ”
Talking about this, the fast food I ordered happened to be delivered, and I told Han Yue that I would eat first, so I didn't continue to chat. When I was eating, I looked back and thought about it, and my mood became very happy, which was a magical feeling!
