Chapter 122: Please Take My Knees
"It's okay, it's okay, even if I can't finish it now, I can pack it up and go back and eat it again." Seeing that the atmosphere between the two people around me had become delicate, I decisively said loudly: "I usually live alone, and I don't really want to cook and eat by myself at night, so it's okay, I've solved my dinner for the past few days!"
Hearing this, Yao Zimiao's brows relaxed, returned to her previous brisk expression, and said: "It's really not easy to live alone, you can't finish eating if you do too much, and you have no appetite if you do less......"
"Yes, this is just the right solution to my dinner problem!" I continued, and I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and finally invisibly resolved this embarrassing crisis.
As soon as his worried heart fell back into place, the voice of the big iceberg came from his ears again, and he said: "Nonsense, how can you eat leftovers, how nutritious it is!"
In a word, Yao Zimiao's expression that had just calmed down suddenly became solemn again.
Me: "......"
Big Iceberg, are you really here to eat with us today? I think you came to smash the field on purpose!
"I guess there are some dishes that the chef hasn't started yet, so why don't we retire a few dishes first?" I turned to the big iceberg and glanced at him without a trace.
Yao Zimiao chose to perform on the street on the first day of her return to China, and her expression of obvious disagreement with the big iceberg just now clearly shows her attitude - she advocates thrift and does not like luxury!
It is my duty to accompany Yao Zimiao today and let her have a pleasant return experience, originally everything was fine, and Yao Zimiao and I also got along well. Who would have thought that a big iceberg would suddenly pop up and make people unhappy for no reason, I won't carry this pot!
"It's not that you can't finish eating, what are you going to do when you leave?" Da Bingshan ignored my warning eyes and said as if unintentionally: "We didn't order the main food, and the average person only had 6 to 7 dishes, which should be very easy." Then he waved his hand and said in a very leadership style: "You guys let go of eating, such a good dish, it's not good to waste it!" At the end, he didn't forget to emphasize to me: "Xiaoyan, you know, I don't like waste the most!"
Me: "......"
I don't like to waste, so what do you old people order so much? On average, there are 6 to 7 dishes per person, and your old man has no pressure to eat, but have you considered the feelings of me and Yao Zimiao?
"Sister Xiaoyan, Brother Xiaowei is so good to you!" Yao Zimiao's voice was still crisp and pleasant, but her face was a little stiff, and she sneered: "I have a small stomach and I can't eat much, so you can eat more later, leave me alone......"
"Look, even Zi Miao, who has just returned to China, can see that I am good to you, what are you not satisfied with?" Da Bingshan suddenly captured what he thought was the point, grabbed my shoulders without hesitation, and said dotingly: "Wait a while, eat cleanly, don't worry about dinner, I'll arrange it!"
Goddess, goddess, which eye do you see that this perverted iceberg is good for me?
Why, just now, the three of them divided the 20 dishes equally, but in just a few words, the task of eliminating the 20 dishes fell on my shoulders alone?
The big iceberg seems to be no longer the big iceberg I am familiar with, and his words and deeds today are all full of strange flavors. Yao Zimiao's dissatisfaction, he was indifferent, my warning, he turned a blind eye. And he not only admitted my relationship with him in front of Yao Zimiao today, but even unscrupulously made many intimate actions that should have avoided suspicion!
All this, how strange!
……
Under the deliberate influence of the big iceberg, I had an extremely awkward lunch. The atmosphere at the table is not harmonious, but it is definitely not bad, the big iceberg bursts out from time to time with one or two angry words, Yao Zimiao is not salty and does not lightly respond to the two sounds, the war between the two bigwigs, naturally needs my little follower to calm down.
So, I was very busy, reminding Da Bingshan a few words "casually" for a while, and vaguely directing Yao Zimiao's attention away from Da Bingshan's body for a while.
Fortunately, there was no smoke in their competition, and the fire did not spread to me, and the two parties still smiled at my good intentions.
The other cause of this unpleasantness, the 20-course meal, no longer seemed to be a problem in this delicate atmosphere. Because each dish is extremely exquisite, each person can taste it in one bite.
Therefore, with no effort at all, we have implemented the idea of "CD-ROM Action" very well today.
Da Bingshan still had a working meeting in the afternoon, and left alone after dinner. And Yao Zimiao said that her purpose of selling art has been achieved, and she wants to go back to her room to relax in the afternoon.
I was honored to be her driver and take her back to the villa of the big iceberg.
"Zi Miao, I'm really curious, what is your intention in choosing to play the piano on the street today?" I asked the goddess sitting in the passenger seat while driving intently, and said with a smile: "Is it convenient to talk to me?"
After half a day of getting along, Yao Zimiao and I are like friends, and we are very relaxed and casual when we talk. She replied directly without thinking about it: "I just returned to China, so naturally I want to know about this city!"
But ...... "But what does understanding a city have to do with street performers?"
"Do you want to say that to learn about a city, you can go to the library to look up historical materials, or sit in the car and take a sightseeing tour of the city?" Yao Zimiao smiled at me knowingly, and continued: "The worst is the worst, I can ask you directly?"
"yes, isn't that the quickest way to get to know a city?" I just stopped at a red light, and I looked sideways at the girl next to me, full of secrets, leaning back in her chair, her eyes closed as if she were not thinking.
"Sister Xiaoyan, every city has many faces, and each of us is concerned about different aspects. Yao Zimiao seemed to notice my gaze, turned back to meet my eyes, and smiled: "And I, the daughter of a businessman, I will inevitably take over my father's company in the future and embark on the road of business." ”
Of course I know this, but what is the connection between your future business and today's street fashion? Goddess, can you not make it clearer? Please consider my IQ that is seriously not online, okay?
In fact, my IQ may not be online, but my expression is still in place, Yao Zimiao successfully captured my still puzzled expression, and kindly continued to explain: "Let's put it this way, as a businessman, I don't care if this city is beautiful or not, and what its history is. I always care about profits, although I have always rejected this word, but I have to admit that the most important thing for me to understand a city is to understand the city's population and spending power. ”
The green light turned on, the car began to move forward, and Yao Zimiao's gentle voice continued to sound: "I play the piano on the street, and I can guess the population of city residents through the flow of people in the subway, the mainstream preferences of people through their clothing and accessories, and the consumption level of the city through today's income." ”
Oh my God, Goddess, please take my knees!
"We received a total of 100 yuan today, and it was given by one person......" I can't help but be a little amused when I think of that little adult.
"So, the current situation of the city is that it has a large population, conservative consumption, and a lot of room for investment!" Yao Zimiao looked forward slightly, and said her answer very confidently.
……
Yao Zimiao rested at home in the afternoon, which seemed to be giving me a free holiday, and I had nothing to do left or right, so I asked Mao Mao, who also had no class in the afternoon, to play together.
And women, especially those of us who are already in the early stages of puberty, have very few places to really play.
So, with a loveless face, I and Mao Mao, who was in high spirits, lay on the bed in the beauty club together and enjoyed the good time of the SPA.
"Xiao Yan, what are you making a fuss about? You finally asked me out, you look like such a dead fish?" Mao Mao smiled obscenely with a gossipy face, and asked softly: "Could it be that you quarreled with the president of your iceberg? What happened, tell me, tell me quickly!"
"Don't mention it, even if I want to quarrel, I want him to give me this opportunity!" I sighed deeply, and explained the abnormal behavior of the big iceberg in the morning, and asked weakly: "Mao Mao, you said, is the big iceberg very abnormal, showing an intimate appearance in front of the guests, but why does this intimacy make me feel so unreal?"
"Xiao Yan, let me ask you, you must answer carefully!" After listening to my narration, Mao Mao's expression became a little solemn, and she asked: "According to you, the Yao family and the Sheng family have been friends for many years, and now they are peers?"
"Yes, it seems that the Yao family's business has been doing quite well abroad in recent years, but Mr. and Mrs. Yao are old, and they always have the idea of returning to their roots, so they plan to return to China to live this year. "I recalled Mrs. Sheng's introduction, and came to Mao Mao one by one.
"Then, Mr. and Mrs. Sheng specially asked the president of your family to take Miss Yao around?" Mao Mao continued to ask: "You have not yet concealed your relationship with the president of your iceberg?"
"No, Da Bing and I have just been together recently, and Mr. and Mrs. Sheng shouldn't know yet!" I have an extremely good impression of Mr. and Mrs. Sheng, and the reflexive opening excuses them, but a trace of uncertainty suddenly arises in my mind, and I hesitated: "But ......"
"However, I remember you told me before, last time you went on a business trip with the president of your family's iceberg, Mr. and Mrs. Sheng clearly misunderstood your relationship, if you didn't make a special explanation afterwards, then in their hearts, you should be a couple at all!"
"Then why did they ......" I think of Mrs. Sheng's still charitable smile on me on the day we met, and it was hard for me to believe the speculation in my heart.
"Xiao Yan, you already have the answer in your heart, don't you?" Mao Mao shattered my last glimmer of hope in a near-cruel voice, and she said rationally: "Mr. and Mrs. Sheng are businessmen, and the biggest commonality of businessmen is the pursuit of profits. Previously, they acquiesced in your relationship with the president of your family because there was no better choice. Now that a Yao Zimiao has been born, whether it is the family background or the current economic strength, it is far from being comparable to you!"
"So they're going to give up on me and match Da Bing and Yao Zimiao?" I said very hard, as if my heart had been stabbed by a big hole in life.
"I'm afraid yes!" Mao Mao glanced at me with some distress, gritted his teeth and continued to analyze: "This time they came over, they didn't directly show their intention to get married, I guess they didn't want to trigger a fierce backlash from the president of your iceberg, so they planned to let the two of them contact each other privately, cultivate their feelings, and wait until the water is a matter of course, and then make further plans." ”
"Maomao, I can't believe that Mr. and Mrs. Sheng will be such people!" Tears fell, my heart was broken, and I closed my eyes in almost despair.
"Xiao Yan, in fact, it can't be said how evil Mr. and Mrs. Sheng are, after all, they just chose the path that is most beneficial to them. Mao Mao said with emotion: "As the saying goes, people don't kill for themselves." ”
