Four hundred and fifty-seven Meeting with Robert

When Zhong Caini came to the door of the Little Swan Hotel, Robert was already waiting there in full costume and holding a beautiful rose.

"Caini, you're so beautiful today. ”

"Thank you. Zhong Caini took the roses handed by Robert and said, "You are also very handsome today." ”

Seeing that Robert shrugged his shoulders and made a very exaggerated expression, and turned around and bent his right elbow to signal to himself, Zhong Caini was not pretentious, naturally reached out and grabbed Robert's arm, and slowly walked to the hotel leisure area like a pair of intimate lovers.

Even, with an elegant snap of Robert's fingers, the waiter quickly brought up two drinks that had been ordered a long time ago.

"I remember when you were in the UK, you especially liked civet coffee," Robert said, pointing to the cup of coffee in front of Zhong Caini, "I just don't know if the civet coffee here is authentic and suitable for your taste." ”

"Thanks, I really didn't know this hotel had civet coffee. Zhong Caini, who knew that civet coffee was expensive, thanked her sincerely and asked, "How long do you plan to stay here this time?"

"Now that the whole world is celebrating New Year's Day and having a holiday, I don't have anything else to do. It was a bit hasty to return home, so I didn't leave until the end of the holiday. ”

"Is your business related to this?"

"You guessed it. Robert said while stirring the coffee in front of him: "The Yinhan Company here is our cooperative unit, and this time the winning stadium project will be divided into a part and handed over to them to do." ”

"Is that what you're here for?"

"Of course, sitting down with her for a cup of coffee is one of the main reasons I'm here and staying. ”

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. ”

"Isn't there a saying in China that 'a good meal is not afraid of being late'?" Robert said very sincerely, "As long as I can see Caini, I am willing to wait as long as I want." ”

For Robert's such a blatant confession, Zhong Caini is really difficult to answer. So I had to lower my head and pretend to take a sip of coffee, and then praised it repeatedly: "Yes, it tastes really good." ”

"That means the civet coffee here is authentic?"

"Very authentic. Not inferior to what I drank when I was in the UK. ”

"I have to say," Robert said, looking at Zhong Caini's face, "Caini's complexion this time is indeed worse than the last time we met." It seems to have been reduced a lot. ”

"I didn't pay much attention to that. Zhong Caini smiled slightly, and teased herself: "Isn't it popular to lose weight now, so it's okay to save money on diet pills." ”

"Lose weight?" said Robert, shrugging his shoulders and shaking his head, "That's the business of ugly and unconfident women, who will never be associated with the beautiful Caini." ”

"Hehe, that's hard to say. Maybe in another year or two, I'll be a bloated yellow-faced woman. ”

"Really, Caini, are you sure?"

"Robert, what do you mean?"

"I think if it's exactly what Caini says, wouldn't my chances be greatly increased?"

It was another sentence that it was not appropriate for Zhong Caini to pick it up, and it was not appropriate to answer it, and when she was in a dilemma, the sudden ringtone of the mobile phone in the satchel finally relieved Zhong Caini.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

"Nini, your dad and I are shopping. If you come back early, remember to call your mother, we will eat out at noon. ”

"Got it, Mom. ”

Hanging up the phone, Zhong Caini did not put the phone in her satchel, but casually put it on the table and explained to Robert: "It was my mother calling." ”

"Is there something?"

"It's fine, just told my mom and dad were shopping and said they were eating out together at noon. ”

"I wondered if I would have the privilege of having lunch with Miss Chainy at noon to-day," said Robert, with a habitual shrug, "and it seems hopeless." ”

"I think that the project you won this time cannot be completed in a short time, and we must have the opportunity to get together. ”

"That's what I thought, too. ”

The two chatted for more than half an hour, and Zhong Caini, who had not forgotten Lin Jia's instructions, slowly stood up and said, "I'm sorry, I'm going to miss you." ”

"Please. ”

Zhong Caini thought that the reason why Lin Jia wanted to arrange herself like that on the phone should be to see if Robert would borrow his mobile phone. However, to be honest, Zhong Caini does not believe Lin Jia's judgment very much. Still, she spent a little more time in the bathroom. It took about five minutes before I got back to my seat.

You don't have to look closely to find out by feeling that your phone has not been moved. In other words, in Zhong Caini's opinion, Lin Jia's wishful thinking should have failed.

In the following conversation between the two, Robert never mentioned a word about Zhong Caini's research topic, and did not even ask Zhong Caini about her work. Therefore, when Zhong Caini originally received Lin Jia's phone call in the morning, the suspicion of Robert that rose in her heart disappeared without a trace.

"Caini, how is the boyfriend who introduced you to me on your birthday last time?"

"Are you asking how his people are, or how are we doing?"

"What do you say?"

"Hehe, he's very good, and our relationship is still the same. ”

"Then why didn't he accompany you? Doesn't he have a holiday on New Year's Day?"

"Can I not answer?"

"If you don't find it convenient to answer. ”

"Hehe, Robert is still so humorous. Zhong Caini smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, I don't know where he is and what he's doing now, and all of a sudden, I can't even contact him." ”

Robert showed great interest in the content of Zhong Caini's truth.

"Wouldn't he feel that he didn't deserve Caini, so he took the initiative to choose to give up?"

"He's not a boy who likes to give up. ”

"Oh, I see. ”

"Understand what?"

"His identity must be very special, or he is a spy, so he suddenly received some urgent order and didn't have time to contact Caini. ”

"Haha, has Robert fallen in love with detectives lately?"

"Alas, talking to smart people is worry-free. ”

"Did I guess right?"

"yes, I'm reading The Complete Sherlock Holmes. ”

"Isn't it, Robert, it's a middle school student's book?"

"What does it matter?" said Robert, frowning, "I did read it once in middle school, but now that I pick it up and read it again, I find that it seems to be even more exciting, and I admire the author's keen observation and whimsical reasoning skills even more." ”

"What else is there to learn?"

"Yes. Robert stared into Zhong Caini's eyes and said, "I feel that I can analyze the psychological thinking of ordinary people." ”

"Including me?"

"Are you an ordinary person?"

"Of course. ”

"Then I'm going to correct what I just said. Robert said with a serious face: "It should be that I can analyze the psychological thinking of other ordinary people, excluding Dr. Zhong Caini." ”
