Chapter 5: Carrots
After coming out of Xiangshawan, the group of them took two cars back to the hotel.
Before everyone had time to change their clothes, they entered the room, directly unloaded their backpacks, and collapsed on the bed tiredly, even until they lay on the ground, fortunately there was a carpet on the floor.
Gu Lance threw down his bag and looked stern: "Will told me that on August 21, there will be a total solar eclipse that will only pass through one country for the first time, and it just so happens that this total solar eclipse can only be seen in the United States, and China cannot see it." β
Hearing this, everyone was so tired that they didn't want to get up at all.
Gu Qi glanced around at everyone present, and his voice was calm and powerful: "The boss discussed with me last night and thought that this is an important starting point for our travel agency to carry out foreign travel, so we will end the trip to Inner Mongolia in advance, transfer directly to Baita Airport in Hohhot, fly to Beijing, and then transfer to New York, USA." β
Du Kuban straightened his waist and pursed his lips: "You really want to go to the United States?"
Gu Lance didn't look at him, but stared at the computer seriously and intently, and after a while, he looked at Duku: "This is an opportunity. β
"Good. Du Ku glanced at He Shenge quickly with a meaningful look.
The male colleague roared angrily and immediately took out the computer energetically, and the female colleague looked at Gu Lance with grievances and reluctantly got up, only He Shenge stood next to Gu Lance with an embarrassed face.
Gu Lance sat down, turned on the computer, and suddenly seemed to remember something, only then did he look up at He Shenge, who had been silent next to him, he coughed and took out another room card: "Shen Ge, you go to the next room to clean it first, the wounds on your hands and feet are disinfected with disinfectant first, and the medicine box is in Xiao Ke." β
Xiao Ke is the aforementioned native of Ordos, Inner Mongolia, who is strong and ready to act as a rescuer.
Hearing this, Xiao Ke immediately took out the medicine box and handed it to He Shenge.
He Shenge took the medicine box very calmly: "Thank you." β
Before leaving, she glanced at the ancient lance sitting on the sofa in the room, lowered her head and glanced at the medicine box in her hand, closed the door cowardly, and went to the next room.
Then, instead of resting immediately, Gu Lance and his party were vigorously planning their next trip in the hotel, and the team members in charge of new media operations were struggling to type on the keyboard in front of the computer.
He Shenge took a shower, treated the wound briefly, and then ordered dinner for Gu Lance on his mobile phone, when He Shenge and the delivery man appeared in the room with a meal, Gu Lance glanced at her coldly, and told her with gestures that it was okay to put down the takeaway.
Those colleagues looked at the takeaway expectantly, but only peeked at it and immediately stared at the computer screen.
He Shenge did not leave, but sat next to Gu Lance, turned on his mobile phone, and entered Instagram to browse at will, but kept absolutely quiet.
As soon as the meeting ended, everyone rushed to the takeaway, thanked He Shenge in unison, and the next moment they devoured it, He Shenge took two boxes of lunches, a cup of coffee and a cup of orange juice, and put one of the boxes of lunch and coffee next to Gu Lance's computer.
Gu Lance glanced at the takeaway and continued to work.
In about ten minutes, Gu Lance removed the computer from the table and smiled: "What is the little cutie ordering? It's so fragrant, you know how to tempt me." β
He Shenge also put down his mobile phone and opened the lunch box hungrily: "It's a nearby fast food restaurant, during this time, I saw that you seem to like eating beef very much, so I ordered carrot stewed beef rice for you." β
Gu Lance nodded: "There are more beef and mutton in Inner Mongolia, so naturally eat more." β
"Oh. He Shenge bit the head of the chopsticks.
He hesitated for a while, put a piece of carrot in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Although beef is not my favorite, carrots are what I like to eat. β
"Carrots. She secretly wrote it down, and then she looked at the curry chicken in her lunch box, and for some reason, she also wanted to express herself: "I love potatoes." β
Gu Lance looked at her with some surprise and said with a smile: "I also like to eat potatoes, I live in junior high school, and the school meals are basically inseparable from fried shredded potatoes, so I eat them very deliciously." β
"It's good that my house is close to the sea, there are no potatoes, and the school can't do without kelp soup for three meals a day. β
"I don't think I've ever drunk kombu soup, but I often drink seaweed soup, which is a boiling soup with seaweed and eggs. β
"I usually cook nori with beef balls in my house, but I don't drink it much. She smiled awkwardly.
"Oh. Gu Lance smiled: "Then do you like to eat seaweed?"
"Well, I like it. β
"After that, the seaweed will be yours, and the beef balls will be mine. β
Xiao Ke on the side immediately grabbed the words: "The soup belongs to me." β
"The little couple, what kind of soup are you rubbing? Be careful that Gu Da shaved your head. Dooku said him.
When He Shenge heard this, her face was slightly red, secretly, her heartbeat was a little fast, she lowered her head to eat, and pretended not to hear the jokes between Gu Li's colleagues, but Gu Qi smiled heartily and said, "Xiao Ke, you have your share in brushing the pot." β
The sky seemed to be splashed with ink, pitch black, not as lit as the big city in this small place, only a little light, and other than that, the shadows of the trees that were hidden in the night like ghosts, and the stars that were much more numerous than the night sky of the city.
After dinner, they began to take turns washing, planners and logistics, as well as operations and visual designers to continue to work, Gu Qi was in contact with a company in the United States, and also had to talk to the leader of the travel agency about it, He Shenge sat lazily next to him and brushed INS.
Every time, she has to look at food pictures posted by a user called "A Girl Who Eats the World" on INS. This user is a girl, an Indonesian girl named Melissa
γ
Melissa seems to have a habit of posting the food she eats when she travels around the world on INS, for He Shenge, she has never had the opportunity to go out to play except at school, even during the winter and summer vacations, she still has to be busy with tutoring, so she put her free heart on Melissa's updated news.
He Shenge looked at Melissa's latest food pictures and said with emotion: "Uncle, I used to always envy Melissa, I was free to go anywhere, and I could taste the food all over the world, but now I actually went to Inner Mongolia from the south, and like her, I took pictures of beautiful scenery and food." β
Gu Lance looked at the plan intently: "It's pretty good." β
I think the world's food is a good thing to relieve stress, and as long as you're full, you won't have any cranky thoughts. β
Gu Lance put down the plan and smiled: "This idea is okay." β
"Don't you really want to go to Japan and eat nori rice balls and taiyaki? Don't you want to listen to Viennese music and eat apple pie......?
He was stunned for a moment, a little confused, and tried to recall what He Shenge said, and replied: "Yes, so I didn't enter the travel agency?"
"You say, I also learn from Melissa to eat all the world's food, what do you think?"
"Well, good dreams. Disapprovingly, he picked up another document and read it.
He Shenge was sitting precariously with a serious face: "I'm not joking, I've been a teacher for so many years, and I have a little savings, if I travel in China, two or three thousand in one place is more than enough, and then, if Melissa goes abroad, she also travels while working, I want to do the same." β
"It's late, you go to sleep first. Gu Lance obviously disagreed with her naΓ―ve thoughts, and was unwilling to extinguish her rare enthusiasm.
She rolled her eyes and asked, "Uncle, do you think I will continue to be a teacher in Guangzhou?"
"It's up to you. β
"I don't want to be a teacher anymore, but according to my normal student major, either going to school or entering an educational institution, these jobs are all paid to death, and this kind of life, I can now have a premonition of my life in my sixties in my twenties, it seems that I have a little bit of a turbulent life, I kind of want to try other jobs, maybe it will be hard, at least, I am not sure what the future will be like, this is interesting, isn't it?"
"Hmm. β
"You say, why don't I become a food blogger too? β
"It's good for girls to be teachers. β
He Shenge solemnly turned Gu Qi's face towards himself and made him look him directly into his eyes: "I mean seriously, I'm tired of a layer of unchanged life, I want to see a wider world, like you, like Melissa, don't you think that if that's the case, we'll be very close to each other?"
Gu Lance put down the action of tapping the keyboard, and also looked serious: "Actually, you don't need to say that you resigned for me, and you don't need to change yourself for me, you just want to be yourself, and so many people want to be teachers, naturally the profession of teacher has its benefits, you see, I am not in the travel agency as you imagine you can travel around, I am running around, during this time, don't you understand the hardships involved?" Melissa shows in the photo that it is just the temptation of food and travel, but behind the temptation is poison, and only she understands her own bitterness. β
"I was just being myself, and I felt like this was what I had always wanted to do. He Shen got up angrily, trying to make Gu Qi understand her thoughts.
The colleagues who were tapping on the keyboard around glanced at He Shenge, and then silently lowered their heads and continued to type on the keyboard.
Gu Yan glanced at the colleagues around him, got up and pulled He Shenge to their double room, he held He Shenge's shoulders, and his tone was low with a hint of command: "In any case, the profession of teacher is the wisest and most stable, I think, you are mature enough, enough to recognize the reality, you can choose not to be a teacher in Shenzhen, Shenzhen is competitive, stressful, I can understand, you can also be a teacher in Guangzhou, but you choose freelancing, this is very risky, you have to think clearly." β
"Okay, you don't care what I'm going to do after I resign, you go get busy, I'm tired and want to sleep. He Shenge pushed Gu Yao out of the room and closed the door, but he leaned against the door weakly.
She is mature enough and aware of reality enough to understand that she is not young and should enter the next stage of her life on the spot, so she is trying her best to get closer to Gu Lance, I thought that Gu Lance will also try to get closer to herself, but I never thought that this is not the case, this is not the case, this kind of thing, after missing the original innocent feelings, all feelings will be mixed with some selfishness.
Gu Lance looked at the closed door, sighed, turned around and went back to the original room to continue to stay up late with his colleagues.
This night, both Gu Lance and He Shenge were sleepless.
The next day, the two got along as if there was no dispute, and this was the love of adults.
In the afternoon, a group of people from Guqi boarded a plane to Beijing.
Before leaving, Gu Qi hesitated, but he finally reached out and touched her head: "You pay attention to safety on the road, and valuables must be put away." β
"Got it, so are you. β
He withdrew his hand, hesitating whether he should give He Shenge a hug.
He Shenge gently pushed him: "Go ahead, don't let Duku and them wait for a long time." β
She always felt that there was always something wrong with their relationship, as if they were not people in love, but they felt quite comfortable with each other, she thought, just keep it all the time, there is no need to deliberately do anything for anyone, it is better to be chic, it is true to be yourself, therefore, she did not listen to Gu Lance's bitter words, but chose to follow her heart.
At this time, her expression relaxed a lot, and she was hesitantly planning to change careers.
