Chapter 35: Wendy Falls in Love with Shanghai
Once Qiangxi worked overtime late, thinking that there was no one in the company for a long time, but when she passed by Wendy's office, she saw her looking at the materials, Qiangxi thought; Wow, what a hard worker.
Qiangxi knocked on the door of Wendy's office;
Wendy replied politely: Yes, there are still some things that have not been read, you see, you are also very diligent, and you are not finished yet.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Qiang Xi said: Let's go, let's go have some supper together, I know that there is a crayfish that is particularly delicious. When Wendy heard that it was spicy crayfish, Wendy couldn't help but be moved, because it is still rare to eat delicious spicy crayfish in Sydney.
In the night snack shop, Qiang Xi gushed about this crayfish shop: this crayfish, now picked, washed and fried, each fresh and big, his house also has his signature dishes: honey lobster and gold medal shrimp mother-in-law are particularly delicious, it is really not eaten by others.
Wendy was eating the hot crayfish and asked Qiangxi: Listening to your description, it seems that you are a foodie, hehe.
Qiang Xi also smiled shyly: Oh, let you see, I also pay attention to the Weibo and WeChat accounts of various Shanghai foodies, as long as others recommend it, I am interested in trying it, except for the work period, my favorite in my spare time is to find food to eat, whether he is in a remote alley, or in a high-end building, I taste them one by one with curiosity and enthusiasm.
Wendy seems to have found someone in the same way: haha. I used to like Chinese food in Sydney, and I often went to various Chinese restaurants, but now I come to Shanghai, and Chinese food in Shanghai is even more delicious.
Qiang Xi saw the common hobbies of the two people, and was even more excited: in the future, which category of cuisine do you like to eat, just tell me, I often pay attention to the dynamics of the Shanghai food industry, and I will tell you as soon as there is any new discovery in the food circle.
Wendy grinned and said, "I like it all, what should I do?" and then Qiangxi and Wendy both laughed together.
Qiangxi suggested that after eating this crayfish, they went to try the smoothie, and Qiangxi knew that there was a smoothie shop near here, which was particularly delicious, and it was just hot and spicy to have a cold and refreshing taste. Because Wendy is a girl, I'm afraid she'll have a tummy. Who knew that she heard this proposal and looked super happy.
After the two of them finished paying, they were about to go out when they saw a mother and daughter begging sitting in front of the crayfish shop. Wendy told Qiangxi to wait, turned around and went back to the restaurant, went to pack two servings of egg fried rice, paid the money, and asked the boss to make it directly to the mother and daughter begging at the door.
Qiangxi looked at Wendy, who was paying seriously, and couldn't help but feel a little throbbing in his heart: You are really a very kind girl, I sometimes help begging homeless people, but it is impossible to completely eliminate poverty by relying on our individual strength, and we will never be able to help.
Wendy replied to Qiangxi with a grin: It's okay, do you know Mother Teresa? I like her very much, and I like one of her things very much, which is that we often can't do great things, but we can do small things with great love. Don't look at the small things we do, as long as it is love, it will be warm. Later, Qiang Xi remembered this sentence for a long, long time, he thought that Wendy liked Mother Teresa so much, it must be because of what she said, and it was not until the end that she knew why Wendy loved this old woman who won the Nobel Peace Prize so much.
In the smoothie shop, seeing Wendy eating smoothies happily like a child, Qiangxi couldn't help but feel a little moved.
"I thought a rich lady like you was delicate, but I didn't expect you to be so cute. ”
Wendy couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Cute, but that's a very special word, it's the first time someone said I'm cute." ”
Fang Qiangxi wanted to further associate with Wendy, and wanted to tentatively ask her if she had a boyfriend.
"You're so cute, there must be a lot of boys and a lot of people like you, right?" Wendy couldn't help but look a little gloomy when she asked.
"Nobody likes me, never. ”
Qiangxi grinned and said, "I like you, Wendy." It was the first time someone told Wendy so bluntly in front of Wendy that he liked Wendy, whether it was true or not, Wendy's heart was also warm at this time.
"Haha, thank you, you're cute too, I like you too. "Sometimes there are some words that the person who says it has no intention, and the person who listens will believe it, such as Fang Qiangxi at this moment, and Fang Shan twenty years ago.
The two of them chatted about food and interesting things along the Huangpu River, and it was late before Qiangxi sent Wendy home.
Downstairs at Wendy's house, the two of them also agreed on which food to eat together next time, Wendy said goodbye to Qiangxi and planned to go upstairs.
Qiangxi stopped Wendy in the back: You said you like me, is it true?
Wendy looked at Qiangxi's cute and serious appearance, and couldn't bear to hurt him, in fact, what wendy said about liking was really to see Qiangxi very cute and likable, not love.
"You're so cute, Ilikeyou. ”
Qiangxi had been giggling that night. He thinks he's met the cutest and simplest girl in the world, and he's the happiest.
Qiangxi is not only a foodie, but also a kitchen master, he has been willing to help his mother busy in the kitchen since he was a child, and learned the skills of using the kitchen, so that after graduation, a person came to Shanghai, he will never treat himself badly in terms of eating, not only go out to find a variety of Shanghai specialties, but also make nutritious and delicious dishes at home.
On the weekend of the second day, Qiangxi spent the whole day making a small book, hand-drawing a map of Shanghai foodies. Not only the main hotels in the major districts of Shanghai are marked, but also some special hotels.
On the first page of the hand-drawn map of Shanghai's foodies, Qiang Xi wrote in bold letters: Life is not only about poetry and distance, but also about pork ribs and soup, shrimp and crab roe.
When Qiangxi gave Wendy this little book on Monday, the other female colleagues at Wendy's desk were very envious.
"Oh my God, Wendy, you're so blessed to have met such a caring boyfriend. ”
Wendy was busy explaining: No, it just happened to have the same hobby.
The colleague next to me continued to coax: Who is not a foodie? I am also a foodie, why no one made me such a loving foodie map. Hee-hee-hee.
Listening to everyone's coaxing, Wendy's heart was still warm, he turned on his phone and sent a text message to Qiangxi: Thank you, the foodie map is very beautiful, I will definitely eat it one by one.
Qiangxi immediately replied to her message: It's not that you will definitely eat it all by one, we will definitely eat it all by one, and our goal is: either eating, or on the way to eat. Looking at the message Qiangxi replied, Wendy couldn't help but smile secretly.
