24 The heat of the palm 3

"The wine is finished. Can you give me another bottle?" her voice seemed to be in her stomach.

Han Che was a little surprised: "Are you still drinking?" The doubts in his heart deepened: "You drink wine as boiled water, aren't you afraid of getting drunk?"

"Is this liquor? At most, it's about ten degrees. Xu Guangxi's eyes showed a hint of confusion, frowned and said, "I am a northerner, and genes determine physiological characteristics." You're worried that I might as well mind myself. ”

Han Che is an authentic Jiangnan native, and the amount of alcohol is indeed not good. Listening to her say this, it's really - after drinking it now, her face is still white and tender, not red at all. On the other hand, Han Che's face was already red.

I really listened to her and served her a few more bottles of wine.

The last dessert is Canaray.

Billed as Bordeaux's number one dessert, CanarΓ© was all the rage in Paris in the 18th century. Compared with macarons, Canalei is full of milky flavor and has a burnt yellow appearance, a bit like pudding, but this dessert has less moisture and a sweet taste, and it is even a little greasy in the mouth. Han Che tasted it himself, it was indeed too sweet. He was worried that Xu Guangxi would not like it, but unexpectedly, she took Kana Lei and ate it with an aperitif one bite after another. She doesn't eat fast, and she puts every bite in her mouth and chews it carefully, making people feel like she is tasting something extremely delicious.

She should like it, at least, she doesn't hate this dessert?,Han Che guessed.

After she finished her dessert, she put the metal spoon on the edge of the plate and said, "You recommend me to work here." I can help the pastry chef. ”

Han Che pulled the corners of his mouth, picked up the wine bottle, filled the aperitif for her, and said, "Mr. Ren will allow you to come out to work?"

Mitsuki took the glass, put the bottom of the glass against the tablecloth, and said, "He won't care about me anymore." Ren Pingsheng sent her to the United States for three years, during which he didn't ask much about her life. Whether it's studying, working, or lodging. None of them. After that, he has Sun Ruilin, and it is estimated that he will not care about her affairs anymore.

"Say, can you?" she looked at him with a smile, please. But in that smile, there was no happiness. Deeper, there is disappointment and despair.

How could Han Che refuse her. "Okay, I'll go and tell the manager that they should be hiring part-time jobs here. ”

"Hmm. She nodded thoughtfully, took a sip of wine, and said seriously, "When I earn money, I will also invite you to eat." ”

He picked up the cup, smiled, and said, "Okay, I'll wait." "Still, you should treat your family to a meal first, and I can be second." Han Che thought about it for her.

Xu Guangxi's eyes darkened and said, "Family? The voice was very soft, Han Che didn't hear it clearly, and felt that something was wrong with Xu Guangxi today, so he tried not to talk as much as possible, letting her own emotions flow slowly.

After drinking the aperitif, he was about to order another Canalei, but unexpectedly, on the way to the front desk, he saw Ren Pingsheng.

It was an unforgettable face and figure, almost instantly recognizable in the crowd. Han Che had to believe that there was indeed such a type of person in the world, no matter their appearance, temperament, and family background, they were all impeccable.

He was sitting by the window not far from him, dressed in casual attire and looking like he had just come out of some basketball club. He was chatting with a man in sportswear across from him, saying a few words from time to time, either smiling or shaking his head, and his body and verbal expressions were just right. Such a person, whatever clothes he wears on his body, will not be looked at with critical eyes when he comes here.

Han Che was hesitating to go up to say hello, but Ren Pingsheng had already noticed him, his gaze crossed the three or two people, and he looked over to this side calmly.

The counter printer made a clicking mechanical sound, and Han Che suddenly felt extremely harsh. The cashier quickly handed him the receipt, and he took it with a smile, but it was not as calm as Ren Pingsheng.

Ren Pingsheng only glanced over there, then turned his attention to Chen Sheng, who was talking about his encounters on Wall Street in recent years and his wedding in Las Vegas a few months ago.

ew, "After three years of private meetings, now, it is not easy for both parties, Chen Shengdong and West talked about it, and then cut to the point: "I heard that your little niece has returned to China?"

Ren Pingsheng was drinking water, and when he heard this, the movements of his hands paused, and then he replied: "She only returned to China not long ago." What's the matter?"

Mr. Chen had met Mr. Xu in Nanjing, the year Sifang.com merged with a high-tech company in Shanghai. At that time, Ren Pingsheng was busy with the merger of the company, and once, Chen Sheng came to his office to discuss the agreement, and happened to see Xu Guangxi sitting on the sofa doing his homework. That year, Xu Guangxi was in junior high school, her facial features had not yet grown, but she was already extremely beautiful, with a long ponytail on her back, slightly broken hair sticking to her cheeks, and her appearance of thinking about the topic with her chin immediately attracted Chen Sheng's attention. Since then, Chen Sheng has mentioned Xu Guangxi in front of Ren Pingsheng more than once.

Chen Sheng looked down at the goblet, pondered for a moment, and said, "You know, your little niece has been a beauty embryo since she was a child. I can say that I watched her grow up, and I was curious about how she grew up to be a big girl, do you give me this opportunity to have more contact with her?"

Chen Sheng's thoughts about Guangxi, Ren Pingsheng is not unaware, it's just that Chen Sheng is not the kind of man who will only like one girl in his life, he can be moved by a stranger, especially a strange woman, at any time. His feelings are too abusive, he often follows his heart, pursues whoever he falls in love, no matter the cause and effect, no matter the ups and downs, and he doesn't even have to take too long to get to know each other, he can make a promise with her. So a few months ago, he swore his marriage to a girl he had only known for less than a month in Las Vegas.

Ren Pingsheng raised his eyes and looked at him again, smiling bitterly, "Didn't you already see it yesterday?"

Chen Sheng was a little confused for a while, "Don't tell me, that beauty yesterday was Xu Guangxi." ”

The main course has been removed, and the last dessert remains. Ren Pingsheng smiled but did not speak.

Chen Sheng picked up the goblet and took a sip of wine, "Come on, come on, hurry up and give me her phone." ”

"Can't the beer and jazz of New Orleans tie your heart?" Ren asked with a smile.

He remembered that Mr. Chen's wife's name was Eva, a bartender he met at a bar in New Orleans.

Chen Sheng raised his eyebrows and said, "You should know me, I like all the people and things in the world that attract me. However, you can rest assured that I will grasp the degree. Won't do anything to your little girlfriend. Chen Sheng closed his eyes very exaggeratedly, signaling him to rest assured. still calls Xu Guangxi his little girlfriend.

Ren Pingsheng lowered his head and turned the goblet on the table, his eyes drifted a little, and he suddenly asked him: "Will you not hesitate to violate your moral code in order to like someone?"

Chen Sheng didn't expect that Ren Pingsheng, who had always been like an old master, would suddenly mention this topic to him, he was quite interested, thought about it seriously for a while, and said: "You might as well think about it in a different way, is your so-called moral code on par with the standards of this society, not too high?"

d

EW, you're a good person, anything. It's just that sometimes, it's too tendonal, and once things are determined, it's hard to turn around. And feelings are just the kind of things that can make people abandon all established principles and re-examine the environment you are in. If that girl can make you doubt whether the so-called principles you have always adhered to are correct, you might as well think about how much you like her now, and how much you can't let go of her. "Of course you have to ask me if I would go against my own principles because I like someone, of cou

se.why

ot?" Chen Sheng shrugged, indicating that this was a matter of course.
