Chapter 27: Bright and Tall
At 14:30, Xu Xincheng came to the Red Rose Cafe, and he still picked the table from last time.
Standing at a height of 350 meters again, looking down at the entire city center again, and looking up at the sky that seemed to be much nearer from here, he suddenly felt that his mind was much broader.
It is no wonder that many large companies, especially those of the top 100 companies in the industry and the world's top 500 companies, like to choose to work in the highest office buildings in major cities.
After taking his seat, seeing that there were still nearly 30 minutes to go, he took out his mobile phone and opened Mr. Wu Xiaobo's "Ten Years of Turbulence, Big Water and Big Fish", which he bought during his lunch break the day before yesterday and started reading it the night before.
---------
At 15:00, Lucy arrived as promised.
I saw her walking from the door of the café like a fairy in all directions, she was still wearing a very quiet and elegant and fashionable high-end dress today, however, this time the dress was white, and the long flowing hair that hung down to the waist looked more jet-black and beautiful against the background of the white dress, this time the handbag was changed to a color, sky blue, and she was wearing a pair of sky blue four-inch high heels on her feet.
Several young beauties present, several young men who looked like rich second generations, and several middle-aged people who looked like executives of foreign companies in suits and leather shoes who were in a meeting, all of them were attracted by Lucy's graceful figure, and the café passage seemed to have turned into a fashion catwalk in an instant, and everyone present became the audience watching the show.
As the finale model of the audience, Lucy made a grand appearance in the representative works of the world's top designers this season, and all the audience held their breath as they watched her walk on the runway with full of admiration and appreciation.
Xu Xincheng quickly put down his mobile phone, stood up respectfully, looked at Lucy with a smile, and when she walked to about two meters, he nodded first and said hello: "Lucy, hello!" At the same time, he politely took two small steps forward, stepped forward, generously reached out to shake her hand, and then invited her to sit down very gentlemanly.
He smelled the intoxicating fragrance again, and his mind was intoxicated again, but he commanded his mind to wake up from the fragrance of flowers and herbs at the first moment.
This time, he had maintained a normal heart from the beginning, behaved generously and politely, and the handshake just now did not produce the same feeling of electric shock as the first time, in his heart, Lucy was a friend, and he had no other thoughts.
"Hello!" Lucy said, taking her seat, "You look different today." ”
"Uh...... I just changed into a piece of clothing that suits the place better. He said with a smile.
"It's not just the appearance of the difference, it's a difference from the inside out. ”
"Thank you!" he smiled and said with a pretending lightheartedness, "I just learned the lesson from the last time." He was actually happy inside, and he was glad that Lucy had noticed the change he had made for today's meeting, and it was not just outward, but more internal.
Last time, because he was caught off guard, he caused a serious gaffe, this time it was different, he met her with the normal heart of an ordinary friend, at this time he played a normal level, completely in the normal state of usually treating people, in a normal state, his performance is absolutely remarkable.
Xu Xincheng thought about it and felt that he should say something complimentary, so he said: "You are still the same today, the same beautiful, the same beautiful as a fairy." ”
Except for his previous girlfriend, he has never praised a girl so directly.
Although this sentence was heartfelt and involuntarily said from the heart, as soon as the words came out, he immediately felt that it was really not very good to praise a girl he had just met so directly, so he quickly added: "Especially this dress, I don't understand fashion, but I just think it's really beautiful." ”
He noticed that the style of Lucy's clothes was particularly novel and fashionable, and the material was also very special, more shiny and delicate than ordinary silk, which must have been tailor-made with extremely high-end and precious silk fabrics.
There are also her handbags and high heels, their styles are very fashionable, their colors, that day blue, pure as the early spring sky, the most rare thing is that two completely different items, their colors are not the slightest color difference, it is estimated that they are also tailor-made, otherwise it is difficult to do this.
Like last time, Lucy responded with a faint smile to such a high compliment, and she whispered, "Thank you!"
Like the last time, the smile was as faint as a thin veil that suddenly appeared in the clear sky of a cloudless sun, and after only a few moments, the smile disappeared like a thin cloud.
Xu Xincheng found that no matter how happy she was, Lucy would not smile so much, she just smiled, at most she smiled, her smile was always so graceful, always so elegant.
In normal times, the expression on her face is a kind of tranquility and leisurely beyond ordinary people, no, no, no, not just quiet and leisurely, it is more accurate to say that she has a bright and lofty bearing like a clear sky.
Lucy is definitely an otherworldly existence, and the reason why she is so otherworldly, in addition to her fairy-like beauty, is more important because of her extraordinary bearing.
"The question is, how could such an extraordinary bearing appear in such a young girl?" the question suddenly appeared in his mind, and then it never lingered.
His mind began to become a little confused, Xu Xincheng suddenly remembered those three nights, but Lucy in those three nights gave people the feeling of ......
Of course, he believed that Lucy's current state was her most authentic state, and as for those three nights, it was probably only a brief trough due to some sudden changes.
"The question is, what happened on those three nights?" the question came back to his mind.
"And ......"
One question after another appeared in his mind, and his mind was in a mess, and he realized that his situation was not good at the moment, and quickly said to himself: "No, we can't go on like this, we must change the status quo immediately, and we must immediately change our minds." ”
He quickly turned his head, raised his hand slightly, and politely gestured to the waiter who was standing not far away.
This waitress is not the same person as the one last time, but this one also knows Lucy, and as soon as she arrives at the table, she bows slightly respectfully to her and says, "Hello Lady Lucy, what would you like to drink today?"
Lucy politely and elegantly said, "Hello Sandra, I still want an espresso, thank you!"
"I want an Italian latte. Thank you!"
Taking advantage of the short period of time just now, Xu Xincheng secretly took several deep breaths, quickly adjusted his state, and when the waiter walked away, his mind had returned to normal, and he decided not to think about the questions just now, he knew that no matter how much he pondered, he would definitely not be able to figure out anything, so it was better not to think about them at all.
