Chapter 440: Where don't we meet in life
"Frost, Frost, get up and eat. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Xu Shuangchuan opened her eyes in a daze and saw Chen Chi's hand on her forehead to check her temperature. "I'm fine. What time is it?"
"It's almost ten o'clock. Chen Chi said softly, "I bought you bread, you get up and eat two bites, and I'll make you some cereal, okay?"
"Not good. Xu Shuangchuan closed his eyes.
Chen Chi lowered his head, anxious and pitying: "Then what did you eat for dinner?"
"Ate a piece of black rice cake. β
"Where's the medicine?"
"Eat. β
Chen Chi listened to her low and hoarse voice, held her and stopped talking, and said after a while: "Shuangshuang, Gu Yiwei called me." β
Xu Shuangchuan half-closed his eyes, and was about to fall asleep again, but when he heard the words, he opened his eyes again and frowned.
"You went to his company for an interview yesterday, why didn't I hear you mention it?" asked Chen Chi softly.
"I've only met him once or twice before, but I didn't want to go anyway, so there's nothing to mention. Xu Shuang muttered, "You come back late every day." β
"There's a lot going on during this time. Chen Chi patted her back lightly, and his tone was apologetic, "Shuangshuang, are you feeling better today?"
"Hmm. What did he say on the phone?"
Chen Chi chuckled: "He was surprised to meet his former friend, and you rejected his job offer." β
"People who are half-acquainted with each other are not comfortable getting along. And he seems to have pulled all his relatives inside, feeling that it will be very troublesome to do things. β
Xu Shuangchuan said a little more, and her voice became more and more astringent, Chen Chi frowned and touched her neck, and probed twice: "It's still a little swollen, and the tonsils are still inflamed." Let's not talk about it, you have to rest quickly. I know what you're thinking, and when he invites us to dinner on the weekend, I make it clear to him. β
Xu Shuangchuan couldn't help but ask, "He invited him to dinner?"
"Hmm. Chen Chi explained in detail, "He called me when he got off work today, and I really didn't expect him to come here to develop." We talked for a while, and he said that his company needs people, and it just so happens that you have submitted your resume, and he would like you to come in and help. But you were reluctant, so he wanted me to convince you and invited us to dinner. β
"Did you say yes?"
"I've promised to eat, and I'll catch up as old friends. But I said that you are not in good health, so you may not be able to go. Chen Chi raised his hand and inserted it into Xu Shuang's hair, gently rubbed his scalp, and pressed it all the way to the back of his neck, his face was worried, "My head is very hot." β
Xu Shuang's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she didn't close, shrinking her neck to feel Chen Chi's warm hand, only to feel that she was very relaxed. She was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "Chi, Gu Yiwei is still very powerful, and he has opened a company in just a few years." How do you say he did it?"
"Only when you suffer hardship can you become a superior person. Chen Chi praised, "At that time, when you look at the place where he lived, it was so hard, he even had to borrow tools to hoe the ground, and no one helped him." But he dared to do it, and now he has broken out of the sky. β
Xu Shuangchuan recalled the time at the head of the river, thinking about Gu Yiwei's bedroom with a pile of debris, and sighed.
"Sleep, sleep. Chen Chi pulled the corner of the quilt for Xu Shuang, and asked her to twist her neck and find a comfortable position to curl up in his arms, "Shuangshuang, you have a lot of colds this year, you must not be cold to hot." β
Gu Yiwei and Chen Chi are about to be in a Jiangnan restaurant, hidden in an old bungalow, which is very homely and warm. Gu Yiwei had already arrived first, his eyes swept over the embroidered soft satin tablecloth, looked at the two sets of fine porcelain tableware opposite, and then moved out of the window. The dense canopy of plane trees hides the small street below, and only vehicles and pedestrians can be faintly seen.
Because of the two people he was going to invite today, he remembered a meal he had together at Wang's house a few years ago. It's also summer, and it's dusk. Chen Chi came to call, he went to the field to choose the most light and largest winter melon, closed the door, and brought a plastic basin of water under the peach blossom tree in the courtyard, poured it from head to toe, freshened up, and changed into a shirt.
"Don't play with the dogs, come in and talk to Brother Wei. This sentence was really impressive, at that time he lived alone in a mountain village, digging soil every day, and rarely heard such a beautiful voice.
On that day, he was a guest and was entertained, and the table was set up in the open air in the courtyard, with a smile on the table, and yellow dogs under the table were skewered at everyone's feet to gnaw bones.
"How many of you, sir?"
When Gu Yiwei heard the sound, his eyes turned to the staircase, and he looked at it fixedly, he hadn't seen it for many years, and the newlywed man was as radiant as ever, still bright and upright, smiling like a spring breeze. Gu Yiwei looked behind Chen Chi, then smiled and got up and left his seat.
"Chen Chi, hello. β
"Yiwei, hello, I've kept you waiting. Chen Chi stretched out his hand and shook it warmly.
"Hello, hello, why are you the only one, Mrs. Zun doesn't come?"
"She hasn't recovered from her cold, so she can't come today, I'm sorry. β
After the two of them sat down, Gu Yiwei smiled and waited for the waiter to take away the extra set of dishes beside Chen Chi, and said with concern: "Is your wife's cold still serious?"
"The fever went away and I kept it at home. β
"That's what I'm not doing, calling you out for a drink. Gu Yiwei said, "You won't be fine when you go back, right?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Chen Chi said humorously, glanced at Gu Yiwei, and sighed with a smile: "Yiwei, I haven't seen you for so many years, and I have the fate to see you again today, it's really a place in life where you don't meet." β
"Where do you not meet in life. Gu Yiwei poured wine for Chen Chi, raised his glass and said, "For this sentence, it should be a big deal." β
Chen Chi smiled heartily and drank happily.
The dishes ordered by Gu Yiwei were very rich, and after the two of them exchanged pleasantries, they chatted about their respective experiences over the years, pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and the atmosphere became stronger.
"Chen Chi, you are really good, you have a family and a room, smooth sailing, and you are proud of your marriage and career. Gu Yiwei complimented.
"If you meet the right person, you can have a home and a room, and if you find a job, it will be smooth sailing. Chen Chiqian said with a smile, "What about you, Mr. Gu, your business is booming and thriving." β
Gu Yiwei glanced at it, shook his head and said: "Don't tease, you husband and wife are really the same, I told your wife that everyone is friends, call your name directly, and your wife will call Mr. Gu by mouth." Actually, I'm just pulling a few people to fool around, to be honest, it's better to have cash flow every day with a small business, but it's just a faΓ§ade. If it weren't for the messing around a few years ago, I was lucky enough to step on the right step, otherwise I wouldn't know where to eat today. β
"Yiwei, why are you so humble. Chen Chi praised, "Our husband and wife are so admirable when they talk about you." β
Gu Yiwei raised his eyebrows: "Speaking of me?" He smiled and filled Chen Chi with another cup, and asked casually, "What did Mrs. Chen say, are you willing to help?"
"My family," Chen Chi looked helpless, "These days my health is not good, my brain can't turn, she means that it is better to be still, or to do her old job with peace of mind." β
