Chapter 464: Unparalleled Beauty (Part II)
Jolene remembers the first time she met "that gentleman" in 2013 when their department held an English speech contest, and the first time she spoke to him was two years later in 2015.
On the day of the English song contest, she first went to Rhubarb's office, where in addition to Rhubarb, there were also a few of his alumni, and they talked so happily that they almost drank a little wine.
Somehow, seeing that scene, Jolene's mind echoed the poem from Kitajima - "At that time we had dreams, about literature, about love, about traveling through the world. ”
They are no longer strong-blooded teenagers, and the dreams they had as teenagers have not been broken. Qiao Lin was very envious of their college years, if she could meet a group of like-minded friends in Yanyuan at the best age, how high-spirited that youth would be.
Rhubarb naturally introduces Jolene to her old friends and asks Jolene to bring them to the game. On the way to the venue, a man asked, "Are you Jolene?"
Jolene remembered him and had seen him on TV, and despite his approachability, Jolene smiled shyly: "Thank you for remembering me." ”
"You are now the senior sister under your mentor's name, he looks at you very well, and I have heard him mention it a few times. ”
Qiao Lin's cheeks were crimson: "Don't praise me so much, I'm embarrassed, my professional level is still far behind." ”
He leaned down lightly and said seriously: "You are still young, and you will do a lot in the future." ”
After receiving the praise from her idol, Jolene was so happy that she didn't know what to do, and she became bolder: "Listen to my tutor, you speak Japanese very well." ”
"Half-hung level, just two outside, not professional. ”
"My second foreign language is also Japanese, but I can't speak it well. If I had concentrated on my studies, I might have been able to learn a similar amount, but I was to blame for spending my time learning Italian. ”
He asked, "Why learn Italian?"
"Because I like Kaka, even though he's out of Italy now......"
When I was younger, I studied French for a few days, but I didn't learn it well. He shook Qiao Lin's hand and said, "We are both from the English department, and we are both Japanese, it seems that we are very fateful!"
Qiao Lin was flattered and hurriedly shook his hand, thinking to herself, this Mr. Liang is really so kind.
After Qiao Lu was sent to the hospital, she was still gloomy and unhappy. She is very careful in her work, and she never causes trouble, but she didn't expect that she could get into trouble like this. The car has been pulled for repairs and will not be back for several days. My colleague's wedding is scheduled to be held in a place where there is no bus, how can I get there?
When queuing up for inspection, Mr. Liang kept enlightening her, as long as the person is fine, the car, the wedding or anything is not important. Of course, he also expressed his empathy: "If a disaster falls from heaven, it is inevitable that you will be in a hurry, if you are really angry, then scold him for two sentences! ”
Qiao Lu was amused by him: "Don't scold, I don't want to waste time on that kind of person!"
"When I heard the news of your car accident, I made all kinds of assumptions, and my heart always hangs. Although you were not seriously injured, it was really distressing to see you shivering in the rain. ”
Qiao Lu had countless touches in her heart, but she only whispered, "Thank you." ”
After the film, the diagnosis came out quickly, there was nothing wrong with the bones, but there was some damage to the muscles, and physical therapy was needed for a few days. Since the injury was not serious, Qiao Lu asked him to go back first, and there was no need to waste time in the hospital.
He excused himself, only to answer a phone call, his brow furrowed again. Qiao Lu quipped: "Is the world not peaceful again?"
"That's not it, it's the phone at home. I told them that I would work overtime tonight and not go back to dinner. ”
He originally ran out of the competition site, and because she didn't even go home, Qiao Lu was very upset. It was getting late, and he was going out to buy something to eat. Qiao Lu asked him to order takeout, he hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'd better go and see it myself." ”
Also, takeaway is not necessarily very healthy and hygienic, and he probably won't like it. Qiao Lu pondered, and he didn't know if he had ever eaten takeout.
Qiao Lu rarely can lie down so comfortably, but she can't help but ask Wen Jing for the video of the little commander to watch. The commander's recent achievement is that he can count from one to ten, memorize the names of his parents, and under his mother's guidance, he can say more fluently: "Auntie, I miss you." ”
Jolene was right, the Commander was indeed a little angel with a great healing effect. He repeated with his mother: "Auntie, what are you doing?"
"My aunt is reading, it's interesting, you have to read more, okay?"
Whether he understood it or not, he said "yes" in a milky voice anyway. Mr. Liang came back from shopping and asked, "How about chatting with your little nephew again?"
"Well, I haven't seen him for more than a month, and I think he thinks so much. ”
Mr. Liang smiled: "Anyway, your daily life is to miss your parents, your younger brother, and your little nephew...... The relationship between your family is indeed very enviable. ”
Qiao Lu is not a serious sick person, but Mr. Liang solemnly bought a sick meal for her. He said that there is a Korean restaurant nearby, and although their mentai fish soup is very light, it is fresh and delicious, which is very suitable for sick people.
He took a "sick number", which made Qiao Lu cry and laugh, but it was rare that he spent so much effort and bought her dinner back, Qiao Lu was still full of gratitude. Before Qiao Lu started eating, a trace of nervousness flashed on his face, as if he was afraid that he would be self-defeating and go to great lengths to buy something, and Qiao Lu didn't like it anymore.
He was nervous occasionally, and Qiao Lu thought he was quite cute. For her, who grew up eating seafood, this soup is indeed too light, but it does taste good. So, she gave her thumbs up and said, "It's delicious, thank you." ”
He was like an elementary school student who had scored 100 points in the exam, and he was not nervous in an instant, and he suddenly smiled. He didn't eat it out, but packed himself a miso soup, but after only one sip, he knew that he had missed this time and couldn't drink it anymore.
Qiao Lu ate it very sweetly one bite at a time, and he couldn't help but wonder a little, was it really delicious? Or did she deliberately pretend to comfort herself? Qiao Lu noticed his movement, and said, "It's really delicious, I don't lie to you." ”
"But mine doesn't taste good at all. He was a little annoyed and a little unconvinced, but a pair of adult eyes were full of childishness: "This thing is like natto, the first time you eat it, you must not be used to it." ”
Qiao Lu pursed her lips and smiled: "I don't believe you can taste me, it's really delicious." ”
Mr. Liang hesitated, but still reached the spoon into her bowl. Qiao Lu didn't lie, hers was indeed delicious. He couldn't help but stretch out the spoon for the second time, but he didn't expect that Qiao Lu also lowered his head, and the heads of the two people touched together.
This was the first intimate contact between the two people, and they were both stunned for a moment, until Mr. Liang was stunned and said "I'm sorry".
"It's okay, let's eat some more!"
Qiao Lu's condition did not require hospitalization, but Mr. Liang was afraid that she would have another emergency, so he still asked her to stay in the hospital for one night. He also moved Jolene out: "Think about it, if you go back to the dorm, Jolene will find out that you were in a car accident, so your whole family will know." ”
Come to think of it, it's better to stay here for one night, and it's more convenient to leave directly from the hospital tomorrow morning. Mr. Liang was reluctant to leave, and chatted with her without a pair: "Qiao Lin is quite interesting, Huang Zhiyuan (rhubarb) joked that he used to be the most ambitious one, but now he is the most obscure one." Guess what Jolene said? She actually retorted directly, you teach and educate people, and do the most meaningful thing, what is more fun than the world full of peach and plums?"
"She must be able to say such things, don't look at her as a girl, but she has a sense of justice!"
"You're very happy to have such a sister, aren't you?"
"Girls are eager to have an older brother, and although I don't have an older brother, I have a younger brother and a younger sister, and I'm already very satisfied. ”
"I can be your big brother!" Mr. Liang blurted out, and explained, "It's not the kind of big brother who worships the handle, but ...... Just like Korean dramas, girls call their boyfriends brothers. ”
Qiao Lu didn't rush to refute him, and said with a smile: "I can't say such a numb word." ”
Such an answer is equivalent to agreeing to his request in disguise. Mr. Liang was overjoyed, kept rubbing his hands, and said, "This is really a drunken night in the spring breeze. ”
After the car accident, Qiao Lu's first thought was not to inform her sister, but to call him, which is enough to explain something. She was really tired and wanted to find a shoulder to lean on.
had just encountered danger, and Qiao Lu didn't want him to go. By ten o'clock, Qiao Lu was already snuggling up to his shoulder, looking at the falling cherry blossoms outside the window. She couldn't help but sing the song she was going to dedicate to her colleagues, for them at this moment, they were both incomparable to each other's beauty.
After listening to it again, Mr. Liang was still unsatisfied, but Qiao Lu refused to sing anymore, and said, "If you want to hear it, accompany me to the wedding tomorrow!"
“…… Okay, you're finally willing to let me see someone. ”
Qiao Lu sighed: "Actually, I have been thinking just now, I am used to living a poor life, and before graduating from college, my family has to borrow money every year...... I also had a rough life, and there were a lot of gossips. What qualifications do I have to associate with you?"
Mr. Liang shook his head: "I've said it many times, you're perfect. The ups and downs of the past can only make you grow better, and my family doesn't care about it at all. I'm worried about myself......"
"Worried about what?"
"I'm divorced and have a young daughter, so I'm not qualified to woo you. ”
Qiao Lu knew all of this, she held his hand and said, "No matter what, let's try it first!"
"Okay......! Try it first!"
