Chapter 19: Blind Date Banquet
(Girls' Literature)
After the buffet is over. Su Xin was dizzy and sleepy because of the jet lag. So I went back to my room to catch up on my sleep. She slept like this until the next morning. When Su Xin got up, it was only half past six in the morning. Sun Zhenhao was no longer in the room. Su Xin saw that the pillows and bedding he had used were neatly stacked in the closet. I think he's already out of bed.
Su Xin freshened up. Swap for a lightweight, comfy T-shirt and jeans. She walked downstairs. There was no one underneath. Most of the people in the house were still asleep.
Su Xin shook in the huge living room. Outside the window, the morning fog receded. The morning light is faint. Su Xin saw a beautiful scenery in the garden. And he came out the back door. Descended the stairs.
The roots of the wall and the flowers and plants under the trees are thinned. The trellises are covered with roses of all colors. The cool and moist morning breeze mixed with the fragrance of flowers and plants came to the nose. The lush oak trees make a rustling sound. In the distance, the sound of the water of the spring and the singing of birds can be heard.
Su Xin took a deep breath. I only feel relieved and active. Refreshing. She took a slow walk along the flower-filled stone path. Hyacinths and cornflowers on the curbs are blowing in the wind. The quaint walls are covered with all kinds of vines.
No wonder it is said that England is rich in gentlemen and gardens. Su Xin sighed. She's only been here for two days. I really know this.
Chen Zhicong's manor is full of natural and idyllic style. I don't see too many artificial carvings. But it is full of ingenious design.
Su Xin walked around. Find a domed pavilion with white rattan chairs and sit down. The gazebo is still surrounded by a circle of flowers and plants. The flowers are fragrant and fragrant. Butterflies and bees flutter among the flowers.
Su Xin supported with one hand. She sat bored for a moment. He moved to the pavilion again. When Su Xin turned his back. A long, majestic figure walked along the promenade behind her.
Sun Zhenhao wears a gray sports suit. Walking is being slowed. He's been around the manor twice. Now he was about to walk slowly back to the villa. He saw Su Xin in the gazebo from a distance. Sun Zhenhao didn't know how to greet her. However, he was asked to pretend that he could not see the other person. He couldn't do it with his demeanor.
Sun Zhenhao has watched those videos of himself getting along with Su Xin in the past. I fell into a hesitant ambivalence.
He already had to admit it. He and Su Xin were indeed a sweet couple like glue before. He really loves Su Xin to death. Girls' literature is updated as soon as possible
She had been pampered and pampered by herself in the past. But he forgot all about her. Sun Zhenhao still felt guilty in his heart.
He also hopes to get along with Su Xin like an ordinary couple. However, he can't find his old emotions at all. He definitely doesn't hate Su Xin. But I can't see her as my lover.
Although Sun Zhenhao has never been self-defined. I have to find a partner. But the women he has dated in the past are more mature or demure women. Than how Yayun. For example, Peng Jiaqi.
Su Xin's appearance and heart are very immature. He couldn't understand what he had come to love for this little girl in the first place. I love it so much. In fact, Sun Zhenhao himself can't figure it out. That's why she let the two of them go unchecked for what they are doing. Negatively do nothing. Whatever Sun Zhenhao remembers, he doesn't remember. It doesn't matter if he loves himself or not.
Because I don't know how to face her. And with a little guilt. Therefore, Sun Zhenhao's attitude towards Su Xin in the past two days has been more cold and distant than before.
Sun Zhenhao had a thousand thoughts in his heart. Su Xin, who was over there, squatted down in front of the flowers with his back to him. His existence was not discovered at all. Sun Zhenhao lightened his pace. Walk by silently.
As the distance decreases. He heard Su Xin talking to herself.
Su Xin squatted in front of a pansy. Tap the dew on the purple petals with your hand. A few colorful butterflies are not afraid of life at all. Dancing around her.
I only heard Su Xin say to the butterflies seriously: "You guys got up so early to collect pollen." It's a pity that humans only praise the industrious little bees. I don't praise hard-working butterflies. Everybody thinks you're a fake. ”
Sun Zhenhao has seen Su Xin's non-shocking nature. He wondered what else the other party would say. So I deliberately slowed down a little more.
Su Xin continued: "There is more. We have a saying here. The insects that wake up early are eaten by the birds. Don't get up too early in the future. Otherwise, the pollen will not be collected. It was eaten by the bird for breakfast first. ”
Sun Zhenhao couldn't help but laugh when he heard it. Su Xin saw that a few butterflies flew away. He waved his hand and sang:
"Honey~~You fly slowly~~ Be careful of the thorny rose in front ~~~"
Sun Zhenhao walked behind her with a smile. Su Xin never noticed his existence from beginning to end.
Su Xin wandered around the garden. Back to the villa just in time for breakfast. Mr. and Mrs. Chen Zhicong plus their parents. and the Sun family. A total of nine people. Gather around a dining table with a powder blue checkered tablecloth. The maids brought breakfast one after another. There are croissants, cereals, scrambled eggs, bacon, roasted tomatoes, and more.
Su Xin sat next to Sun Zhenhao. Eating bread quietly. The people at the table were talking about Sun Qianyi's "object" yesterday. As a topic character, Sun Qianyi also has an attitude of pretending to be deaf and dumb.
Su Xin listened absentmindedly. Until I heard Guan Qijing mention:
"That guy named Chris is pretty good. ”
。。 The man who looked like Zhang Xiang. She couldn't help but listen carefully.
Chen Zhicong's father said: "It is my second brother-in-law's nephew. I kind of grew up watching him. The lad is very down-to-earth. The officer is also neat. ”
Chen's father's second brother-in-law is the British man who called Chris over yesterday.
Kwan Qijing inquired about Chris's situation: "How many brothers and sisters in his family? ”
Father Chen said: "There is an elder brother above. There are younger sisters and younger brothers below. Plus he has a total of four siblings. ”
"Chris seems to be half-blood. ”
"Yes. Her mother is of Chinese descent. It's my brother-in-law's little sister. ”
"What does he do. "Guan Qijing's mother-in-law mode is fully open. I started to inquire about Chris's family background.
"His family is a digital product agent. I studied system program development. I guess it's a graduate degree. I will graduate next year. ”
As he spoke. Sun Qianyi, who had not squeaked, couldn't help but interject:
"Isn't he younger than me......"
Father Chen did the math. "Chris seems to be twenty-two years old this year. ”
Chen Zhicong smiled: "Nicole is twenty-five. Girls' literature is updated for the first time Three years older. ”
Chen Zhicong's mother also accosted: "Didn't you say that the female junior hugged the gold brick." Sister and brother love is also very good. ”
Sun Qianyi stuck out her tongue: "I don't like people younger than me." ”
She glanced at Sun Zhenhao and Su Xin. deliberately said: "It's better to find a husband who is a little older than yourself." Old men will be more spoiled by their wives. ”
Sun Qianwen didn't know that Sun Zhenhao had amnesia. Then he said, "That's too." It's like the eldest brother and sister-in-law. It's really envious of others. ”
An old man raised his eyes faintly. Continue to eat breakfast as if nothing happened. Su Xin smiled hehehe. Noncommittal. With her current relationship with Sun Zhenhao. I really can't afford such envy.
Guan Qijing changed the topic very neatly: ". But the key still depends on his character. ”
Chen's father packed the ticket: "Chris's character is absolutely guaranteed. Don't look at him handsome. He's pretty clean and self-loving. Listen to my brother-in-law. He's grown up and hasn't had a girlfriend. ”
Guan Qijing echoed: "This is really rare. ”
Sun Qianyi muttered: "People don't necessarily look up to me." Don't get hot. ”
Chen Zhicong suggested: "Why don't we have another party tonight." Bring the boys from yesterday over. Take a closer look. Let's talk a little bit more. ”
It means that a blind date banquet will be held again. Sun Qianyi shouted for help in her heart. The crowd ignored her resistance. Arrange it yourself.
After breakfast. Chen's father went to work. Sun Qianwen is at home with her children. Chen Zhicong accompanied the rest of the people to the London Eye, Tower Bridge and other attractions. Duration. Su Xin and Sun Zhenhao visited the British Museum. The two still don't talk speculatively for more than half a sentence.
Night falls. The wind is clear and the moon is clear.
Inside a three-storey brick and timber villa. A special family banquet is being held in the living room on the first floor.
The room is filled with a crispy aroma. Long dining table. Several stainless steel plates are neatly arranged with a variety of snacks and snacks. Another round table is served with a variety of drinks. There are juices, cocktails, champagne, red wine, etc. Guests can choose from.
Guests are dressed appropriately. Because it's a family gathering. People are not overly ceremoniously dressed. Gentlemen wear casual clothes. The ladies are mostly simple little dresses.
Su Xin was wearing a black double-shouldered V-neck dress. Wear yours with black platform heels. Plus a retro scorpion braid. The back of the head is fastened with a black velvet bow. Foreign women have to wear makeup when they are in public. This is basic etiquette. Su Xin had no choice but to apply a thin layer of grease powder to her face as the locals followed.
Sun Qianyi, who is the protagonist of the banquet. Wearing an apricot lace modified cheongsam. But I saw that her black hair was like a cloud. Bright eyes. Peerless. There is the tenderness of everyone's ladies. It also has the luxury and grace of an oriental goddess.
In order to avoid Sun Qianyi's embarrassment. Some unmarried ladies were also invited to the guests. However, she is undoubtedly the most glamorous of all. The unmarried men all gathered around her.
Chen Zhicong and Sun Qianwen were by her side. Introduce her to young and promising single men one by one. Many of them were guests who had attended the baptismal banquet yesterday. The so-called once raw and twice ripe. The men were all chatting enthusiastically with Sun Qianyi.
Sun Qianyi was arched by the stars. But there was no joy in my heart. I can only force myself to put a fake smile on my face.
The British are very warm and open. Some of the men and women who met for the first time chatted a few words. And they mingled. It just so happened that cheerful and melodious country songs were playing in the house. Men and women are divided into two rows. Smile and look at each other face to face. Follow the melody and move the transposition. The young people danced the British folk dance.
