Chapter 248: We Are Friends
Xu Xincheng didn't think about it, and said loudly: "We are friends." ("We are friends.") When he said "ARE", he raised his voice a little bit to emphasize it.
However, he immediately reacted that there was a deep meaning behind Rose's question. Her first meaning should be that they weren't friends before. On closer thought, she was not wrong, they were indeed not friends before, the reason was that he was not enough friends, and there were friends like him who refused to accept more than a dozen party invitations in a row, but he himself said conclusively "We are friends", which made him feel guilty immediately.
Also, Rose's second meaning should be that although she can't be boyfriend and girlfriend, she doesn't want the two to become strangers from now on, and she still wants to be friends with him.
Thinking of this, Xu Xincheng immediately added: "Rose, I am very glad to be your friend." His tone this time was plain, but his tone was firm and powerful.
Rose smiled happily and raised her right hand to shake his hand while saying, "OK, then let's be friends!" ("Okay, then let's be friends.") ”)
Xu Xincheng looked at the sincere and happy smile on Rose's face, and was deeply moved again, and he said firmly: "Yes, we are friends." ("Yes, we are friends.") As he spoke, he and Rose shook hands tightly.
Rose eagerly looked into Xu Xincheng's eyes and said to him, "Steve, you should know what friends would do, they get together, they talk, they have fun. I know you are very busy, but I am hoping that from now on, we can get together, talk and have fun from time to time.” ("Steve, you should know what friends do with each other, they party, they chat, they have fun.") I know you're busy, but I hope that from today onwards, we can get together from time to time, have a chat, and have fun. ”)
When Rose said the first sentence, Xu Xincheng's heart chuckled, Rose is so smart, she just took retreat as advance, completely step by step, and couldn't help you not follow her rhythm. However, even though he knew this, he didn't feel any unpleasantness.
He didn't like to hurt others since he was a child, let alone girls, and at this moment, he didn't want to hurt Rose anymore, such a result, the two of them were just friends, which was the best result, and the result he wanted to see.
Besides, he has also begun to realize in the past two days that it is not good to just work hard every day, not only for his own health, but also for work, he has realized that the work efficiency in the last two days has begun to get lower and lower, and the work still needs to pay attention to methods and methods, or to pay attention to the combination of work and rest. Occasionally, he gathers and chats with friends, I believe that not only will not have a negative impact on the work, but if it is grasped well, it will have a positive effect, he can and should be familiar with his colleagues from time to time, understand the problems they encounter at work, and care about everyone's life and work.
So, he said to Rose, "Yes, you are right, we should get together from time to time." ("Yes, you're right, we should meet from time to time.") ”)
Rose was obviously satisfied with Xu Xincheng's answer, she nodded with a smile on her face, and said, "OK, my friend, let's start from now on, let's talk now." ("Okay, my friend, let's start now, we'll talk now.") ”)
“Yes. I am wondering if you......"("Okay. I want to know if you ......" Xu Xincheng thought about it, and felt that he needed to adjust the tone of his speech, and he could no longer talk to Rose in the tone of a colleague, so he adjusted his tone and asked with great concern: "Rose, it has been about a month, have you adjusted to the life here?" It's been almost a month, Rose, have you adjusted to life here?")
She smiled and replied, "Generally speaking, I think I have already adjusted to the life here, actually, I found out that I really like it here. Everything is so good here. Leona has taken me to many beautiful places, we have been to ......" ("Overall, I think I've adapted to life here, in fact, I find that I really like it."). Everything is fine here. Leona took me to a lot of beautiful places and we have been to ...... together")
Rose gushed with Xu Xincheng about the attractions she had visited, the malls she had visited, the food she had eaten, and showed him many photos. Xu Xincheng listened attentively, asking some details from time to time.
Later, the two talked about their respective jobs, and Xu Xincheng also took the opportunity to tell Rose how busy he was working every day, and he needed to let Rose understand that there was indeed a good reason for him not to accept the invitation to the party, and it was indeed excusable.
The two talked until eleven o'clock before leaving.
Rose's current place is actually very close to Xu Xincheng's place, and he could have shared a car, but Xu Xincheng avoided unnecessary trouble, and still called a special car for Rose alone. When he put Rose in the car, she had basically returned to her usual appearance and became lively and cheerful again, which made Xu Xincheng breathe a sigh of relief, and finally felt that he was not so sorry for her.
Xu Xincheng took another special car home, and along the way, he began to think about how to get along with Rose next, how to make her happier. After a while, he came up with a good idea, yes, he should introduce Rose to Zhou Dedao, Zhou Dedao is the best at playing, the best at coaxing girls to be happy, and his company often holds parties there, I believe she will be able to have more fun there.
In addition, he can also introduce his friends to her, and he also has a lot of foreigner friends, and those foreigner friends will definitely be able to bring her into the foreigner circle in Guangzhou. It is said that there are nearly 80,000 foreigners living in Guangzhou, many of whom are Europeans and Americans. He believes that as long as Rose makes more friends, a few friends and a few good girlfriends, she will definitely be happier, and she will no longer focus too much on him.
As for his next plans, especially his emotional plans, to be honest, he really didn't have any other ideas than wanting to do his best work.
In the four weeks of working in the New Century Building, I really don't know if it is the big-name clothes on his body, or the men here are a rare species, when he commutes to work or goes out to run errands every day, when he takes the elevator or in the lobby of the building, there are often beautiful girls who work in this building take the initiative to show him goodwill, most of the girls are more reserved, just talk to him, and some girls are more direct, directly ask him to call and directly add him WeChat, and three of them directly say that they want him to drink coffee.
Every time he encountered this situation, Xu Xincheng could only respond to them politely, and finally politely declined. He really only wants to put all his time, energy and heart into his work now, and only in this way can he live up to Lucy's trust in him, and it is possible to fulfill the trust that Lucy has placed on him.
