Chapter Eighty-Nine: Old Beijing Rock Sugar Gourd
He Shenge's ears were red, but he didn't have any opinions in his heart.
It's just that she thought about it, Gu Lance was preparing to start a business, and remembered how busy she was when she started her business, and getting married at this time would affect Gu Lance, after all, marriage also requires a lot of money and a lot of energy.
She was thinking about how to dispel Gu Ma's words.
Gu Lance replied first: "Mom, I'm not in a hurry about this, I don't have a job now, wait until my job is stable, let's talk about it, and besides, Shen Ge's studio is very busy, as soon as she asks for leave, she doesn't have a lot of lists, which is equivalent to losing a lot of money." β
He thought that he didn't have the ability to give He Shenge too much for the time being, thinking that He Shenge was still young, and it would be okay for him to delay a little later.
He Shenge glanced up at Gu Qi, feeling a little panicked, what if he regretted it in the future?
The next moment, she blushed and said, "It's okay, the studio is relatively stable now, and my aunt and uncle can go to my house whenever they want, but it won't take two days?"
Gu's mother thought that what she said was reasonable, after all, she couldn't let her in-laws think that her son couldn't support her daughter, so she said: "Don't worry about it first, let Ah Qi's job be stable, and then set a date." β
"Good. β
Gu Lance put a piece of chicken breast in He Shenge's bowl, and suddenly asked, "Why are you at home these days?" I met Xu Qing yesterday, and she seems to have been working overtime all this time. β
"Look. He Shenge stretched out his right hand with a shallow scar: "You can't let me be lazy?"
"Okay, take the opportunity to relax first. β
Everyone thought she was just recuperating from her injuries and not going to the studio, in fact, she secretly contacted her best friend Luo Linlin, and through the recommendation of her best friend's boyfriend Shi Liyi, she finally found an investor who also loves food travel, and she successfully sold the studio to an advertising company under this investor, plus the profits of some projects, she got almost two million from it.
She has now bought a unit in the university town of Guangzhou as Gu Li's studio, and wants to go back tonight to surprise Gu Li.
When I returned home, I found that the long incandescent lamp at home was not turned on, but a slightly dim orange-yellow chandelier was turned on in the kitchen, and under the light were candles, red wine, and food.
Apparently it was a romantic candlelit dinner that was carefully arranged.
"Coming back?" said Koki as he brought out the grilled steak.
He Shenge put down his bag and asked, "Uncle and aunt went back?"
"They will go back to Yuexiu in the afternoon, and my mother will ask you to go over there to find her when you are free, and she will make you soup to drink. Gu Lance took out the dark beer that He Shenge had sent back from Germany from the wine cabinet before, and raised his eyebrows at He Shenge: "Tonight, let's enjoy the world of two people first." β
He Shenge sat down, picked up a piece of German-style gingerbread and put it in his mouth: "My uncle still has such a romantic side, did I pick up a treasure?"
"That's for sure. Gouri poured her a glass of dark beer.
"This gingerbread is delicious, the skin is crispy, the ginger flush is erased, leaving the freshness and slight sweetness of the ginger, neutralizing the greasy nature of the cake, anyway, when did you learn to make this? Have you ever been to Germany?"
"No, when you were in Germany before, you always said that this cake was delicious, and it happened that Rose also came back from Germany some time ago, so I went to ask her. β
"Thank you, uncle. He Shenge stretched out his hand and hugged Gu Lance.
Immediately, she took out the deed and showed it to him with joy, and said, "Dangdang, look, this is half of the country I bought for you!"
Gu Qi frowned slightly, and his tone changed suddenly: "What is this?"
"Don't you want to start a business? You definitely need a house, so I bought you a set of four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two living rooms and a kitchen in Tianhe District, as well as a balcony suite, which is very large, and you can change the layout according to your needs in the later stage." β
"How did you buy it?" Gu Lance's hand tightened as he held the dark beer, and his tone became more and more deep.
He Shenge felt the change in Gu Lance's expression, she hesitated for a while, raised a smile and said to him, "I sold the studio." β
Gu Lance looked at the deed, put the dark beer on the table, and was furious: "This is my business, I don't need you to pay like this to achieve me! You should have your career, my career, I will find a way myself." β
His voice couldn't control and he spoke louder and louder, which frightened He Shenge into a daze.
I thought I would see Gu Qi's surprised and moved look, but it turned out to be otherwise.
He Shenge suddenly felt aggrieved: "Do you want to love it, obviously you said it yourself, I am not alone, I still have you, then don't you still have me?"
She put the deed on the table and ran into the room in shame.
Only then did Gu Lance react, what he had just said was too much, he sighed, reached out and took out a small square box from his pocket, which contained a ring.
I was thinking of proposing to her tonight, but now, I seem to have messed things up.
That night, He Shenge moved out of Gu Li's room and slept in the study, and then the Cold War began.
After a few days, He Shenge thought about it, and felt that it was his own fault, and he patronized to help him, but he didn't take into account that men also have self-esteem.
She was about to communicate calmly with Gu Lance, but she found that Gu Lance was still angry.
So, she boiled the water and prepared the next noodle soup for him to eat, but the Gu Lance who came out of the room didn't eat breakfast and left directly. He Shenge stopped him: "Uncle, don't you eat breakfast?"
He paused, and then said, "I'm busy preparing for the studio, so I might come back later in the evening, so I don't have to wait for me to come back for dinner." β
He Shenge listened to the sound of the door closing and the sound of boiling water in the pot, and then looked at the deed that was still lying on the table, she turned off the electric stove and leaned against the cupboard.
I wondered, will only Yuan Yunshu know how to persuade him, his appearance of working so hard in his career is very similar to the appearance of Yuan Yunshu when she first saw him, ambitious and ambitious.
In the inky night, the drunken Gu Lance came back very late.
He turned on the light, went into the kitchen and took a sip of ice lemon water, just in time to see a piece of paper pressed against a plate of pasta on the deed on the table.
He took a closer look and saw that it was He Shenge's handwriting.
It reads:
Uncle:
You're busy, but the house was bought for you, even if you signed this house to me, you still use it.
I deposited 1 million in our bank card for the reserve marriage, and you can use it to start a business, as my investment, so that I can wander outside in the future and have a stable income, I will be responsible for the money, you contribute!
As for the transfer of studios, it's not because of you, but I'm really tired, the deep song studio is like a flowing banquet, I, the chef, simply don't have so much energy to prepare so many delicacies for the guests to eat, although I can earn a lot of money from the guests, but I haven't tasted the food seriously, which is contrary to my original intention of changing careers, I just want to simply capture those unreachable scenery in such a limited life, taste different food, and then share the experience of the beautiful scenery and food at that time with othersγ
Thank you for giving me a very ambitious, thoughtful and detailed plan for the development of the studio, sorry, I don't like to go according to plan. I'm flying old and beautiful, and I want to try the American food you talked about earlier.
Don't worry.
I'll miss you.
Gu Lance held this piece of paper and looked down at the night scene of the city with the lights of the city, and his heart seemed to have an empty place.
He Shenge arrived at Chicago O'Hare International Airport.
As soon as she got off the plane, the wind in Chicago blew her straw hat off, and she chased it all the way, but she didn't know where the hat blew to, and she was a little frustrated.
She first went to the hotel to put down her luggage, then went to the well-known brunch restaurant for lunch, and then went to the Navy Pier to take a cruise, she was used to taking a fishing boat since she was a child, she didn't have any feelings about the cruise ship, but it was very good to be able to drink afternoon tea while sitting on the boat, but the wind was too strong, and the food flew to her face, and she was even more depressed.
In the evening, she went to the restaurant on the 95th floor of the Willis Building, and it was very enjoyable to have dinner while overlooking the night view, but it was a pity that she looked at such a view, which reminded her of her first date with Furu.
At that time, Gu Lance was on a business trip in Beijing, and she was on winter vacation, so she went to Beijing to find him.
Beijing in January was also windy and cold, and she was blown stupid at the time, but Gu Lance kept covering her ears with her hands, so that she could walk all the way to eat the old Beijing rock sugar gourd, at that time, Gu Lance also took her to Beijing's tallest International Trade Building building overlooking the night view, they were in the 80th floor of the bar at that time, Gu Lance drank the cocktail made by the bartender, she ate the cake, and the two were very happy.
At this moment, she was standing on a higher position, but there was no him next to her, in fact, she really missed him! I wanted to talk to him, I wanted to eat his food, I wanted to sleep on his arm!
She turned on her phone, opened the address book, and flipped to the word uncle, but she didn't have the courage to dial it.
If he's still angry, what's he going to do? If he's not saying goodbye, will he be even more angry?
On the Chinese side, Gu Lance is instructing workers to carry their desks into the empty house that He Shenge bought.
Suddenly, a Weibo prompt popped up on the mobile phone in his pocket, and he immediately put down the wooden board in his hand and took out his mobile phone to look.
He smiled comfortably, and after being silent for a long time, she finally posted on Weibo!
Since she left, she didn't dare to call her, maybe she was still angry, so she chose to leave, and she could only silently guard Weibo and WeChat public accounts, obediently waiting for her to update her status, so as to understand her recent movements.
He saw He Shenge with a few pictures, including exquisite blueberry cheesecake, spinach cheese thick-bottomed pizza and Chicago hot dogs, the food looked beautiful, he saw He Shenge with the text, Windy City style food, and then attached the location How much the restaurant consumes, as well as the culture and production methods of these three special foods in Chicago.
Now he is very accustomed to giving her a thumbs up.
Gu Lance stared at her Weibo profile picture for a while, but chose to turn off the screen and continue to work.
When he was painting the empty house, there was a prompt sound on his mobile phone, and the picture he saw this time was a cruise ship and food, but he couldn't see He Shenge.
But he still liked it, thinking to himself, she must have known that she had given her a thumbs up!
When he woke up, he immediately took out his mobile phone to see that He Shenge had updated Weibo again.
In the photo, He Shenge was strolling in Millennium Park at night, and he saw her blurry figure through the mirror reflection of "Bean", she was wearing a turquoise scarf.
He thought, in the Windy City in Chicago, it is estimated that she is about to die of cold, and imagined He Shenge's cold and shivering appearance, he couldn't help laughing.
When he was ready to go to bed at night, He Shenge updated the WeChat public account again, she wrote a tweet about breakfast in the restaurant, this tweet is extremely detailed, and the picture looks like it has been carefully retouched, and she also took a picture of the chef making breakfast.
He couldn't help but smile, thinking that this woman's English level is very high! She has even tweeted to foreign restaurants, but I don't know if her salary for writing tweets abroad is as high as in China.
Just as he lay down and covered the quilt, a message came from WeChat on his mobile phone, and at a glance, it was He Shenge's news.
He sat up ecstatically.
She's finally messaging him!
