Chapter 224: A Trip to Longwan
Before going to Longwan, Chen Qingdong had already contacted Xu Yuanyuan on the phone, and Xu Yuanyuan also readily agreed, and would definitely introduce her cousin Xu Wei to him.
It only took about an hour and a half to drive from Liulin County Bus Station to Longwan City.
The eastern coast of Longwan is one of the most important cities in Huaihai Province, and its ranking in the province is in the third place all the year round, second only to Jingjiang City, where the capital of Huaihai Province is located, and Qingzhou, another coastal sub-provincial city and a city with separate planning.
Originally, Xu Yuanyuan had already said that he would come to the bus station to pick him up, but when Chen Qingdong was on the bus to Longwan, he received a call from Xu Yuanyuan again, and her unit had an important job for her to do, and it was estimated that she would not be able to come to the bus station, so she would contact him at dinner in the evening.
However, Xu Yuanyuan gave Chen Qingdong the phone number of her cousin Xu Wei, and told him that she had already told her cousin that Chen Qingdong would contact her directly when she arrived in Longwan, and she could talk to her first.
After hanging up Xu Yuanyuan's phone, although Xu Yuanyuan said that she was busy with work and couldn't come to the train station, she had to think about it one more step, it seems that her friendship with Xu Yuanyuan is still shallow after all, and fortunately she has come to Longwan now.
After getting off the bus, Chen Qingdong looked at the time, it was not half past three, he was not in a hurry to call Xu Wei immediately, but he got on a bus casually first, paid a dollar, sat for more than a dozen stops, and took a look at the development and environment of Longwan, and also had a rough understanding of Longwan.
When it was almost four o'clock, Chen Qingdong thought that even if Xu Wei had important work, she had almost done it at this time, so he called her.
"Hey, hello. Xu Wei's voice is very good.
Although Chen Qingdong has not seen Xu Wei yet, just listening to this voice, he can feel that this should be a big beauty with an intellectual and somewhat strong personality.
"Hello, may I ask Sister Wei, I am Chen Qingdong from Liulin County, and I used to be a colleague with Yuanyuan. Chen Qingdong said politely.
"Hello, Mr. Chen. Xu Wei said very politely, but her tone seemed to be a little ridiculous, "Yuan Yuan has already told me, are you in Longwan now?"
Chen Qingdong was a little unaccustomed to being called "Mr. Chen" by Xu Wei, so he said: "Sister Wei, you don't need to call me 'Mr. Chen', just call me by my name, I just arrived in Longwan." ”
"Hehe, okay. Xu Wei smiled, "I just have time now, you can come over directly, let's meet and talk." ”
"Okay, I'll go over it. Chen Qingdong said, "Sister Wei, I don't know what your specific address is......"
"You take a taxi and go directly to the Longwan Hotel. Xu Wei said succinctly, "I'll be waiting for you in the café of the Longwan Hotel." ”
"Okay, I'll be right over. Chen Qingdong said.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Qingdong immediately stopped a taxi from the side of the road and went straight to the Longwan Hotel.
After more than 20 minutes, the taxi stopped under the Longwan Hotel. Chen Qingdong entered the hall on the first floor, asked if the café was on the seventh floor, and then took the elevator to the seventh floor.
After coming to the café on the seventh floor, Chen Qingdong saw more than a dozen people sitting in the café, of which only four were sitting alone, two men and two women. One of the two women was a little older, probably about forty years old, and the other was twenty-seven or eighteen years old, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, which was considered a standard work attire, and a black woolen coat was placed on the chair next to him.
She was drinking coffee and reading a book at the same time, looking very serious.
Although she is sitting now, Chen Qingdong can also see that this girl is very slender, her height should not be less than one meter seven, her deep eyes and high nose, delicate facial features, and her short hair that has been carefully trimmed, which seems to show her tough character, and there are still some beautiful demeanors of girls and national women in the vague sense.
Just like his girlfriend Li Xiaolu in Jingjiang looks very similar to the movie star Li Xiaolu, seeing this girl, Chen Qingdong can't help but think of the shadow of another star in his mind, and it is also the actor of the girl Milan who made Ma Xiaojun haunted and even had a fictitious obscenity in the movie "Sunny Day" that he loved so much-Tranquility!
Although this girl is not very similar to Tranquility in terms of appearance, but seems to be more delicate than Tranquility, the feeling or temperament she exudes is very similar to Milan in the movie "Sunny Days", or Tranquility!
Because of this, Chen Qingdong immediately decided that this girl must be Xu Wei, and in the first impression, Chen Qingdong was full of good feelings for her.
Chen Qingdong simply tidied up his clothes and walked towards her.
When he came to the girl, Chen Qingdong said politely: "Hello, are you Sister Xu Wei?"
The girl put down the book, raised her head, showed a shallow smile at Chen Qingdong, and asked instead of answering, "Chen Qingdong?"
Chen Qingdong smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's me." ”
Xu Wei didn't answer Chen Qingdong's question just now, but just acquiesced in this matter and said, "Sit down." ”
Chen Qingdong wanted to say "thank you", but suddenly felt that he was paying too much attention to politeness and seemed to be too restrained, which would make Xu Wei laugh, so he didn't speak, just smiled and sat opposite Xu Wei.
"What to drink?" After Chen Qingdong sat down, Xu Wei asked again.
Chen Qingdong didn't have much interest in coffee, but since this was a café, Chen Qingdong was embarrassed to ask for tea in an alternative way, so he said, "A cup of coffee." ”
Xu Wei gathered his hand at a waiter not far away, and when the waiter came over, Xu Wei said to herself: "A cup of Blue Mountain." ”
"Okay, wait a minute. The waiter answered and went.
Xu Wei seemed to think of something, and explained to Chen Qingdong: "The Blue Mountain coffee here is very good, you can taste it." ”
Chen Qingdong also said politely: "Okay, Sister Wei." ”
But I was thinking in my heart, this Xu Wei is definitely a person with a strong personality, and I don't know which man can control her.
Hey, why did you suddenly think about this question, it's really boring.
Xu Wei looked at Chen Qingdong slightly and said, "Yuan Yuan has mentioned it to me many times, saying that you are very interesting, different from many young people, I am curious, what is different about you." ”
Xu Wei's question, Chen Qingdong was really difficult to answer, so he smiled and said: "Yuanyuan should be joking, I am not different from others." ”
Xu Wei smiled: "Yuanyuan grew up with me, I know her very well, she will not praise a person casually, especially a man, and she has praised you more than once, I am very curious, what kind of boy will make Yuanyuan impress you in a short period of time, which is why I am willing to see you today." ”
Xu Wei's words were a little too straightforward, which made Chen Qingdong a little uncomfortable to listen to, in addition, he also felt that this Xu Wei seemed to be too strong, if she didn't restrain her arrogance, then it would probably be very tiring to chat with her later. But Chen Qingdong knows that it may be very difficult for a person like Xu Wei to take the initiative to restrain her arrogance, and it is better for her to be appropriately tough.
Therefore, Chen Qingdong smiled faintly and said, "Yes, I thought you were interested in the business of our farm, so I came to see me." ”
When Xu Wei heard this, she couldn't help frowning slightly, but soon smiled again, and said a little confusingly: "Not bad." ”
At this time, the waiter brought the finished Blue Shark coffee, put it in front of Chen Qingdong, and said, "Sir, please use it slowly." ”
"Thank you. Chen Qingdong said politely.
Although Chen Qingdong has no interest in coffee, he still has some understanding of how to drink coffee by watching movies, such as milk and sugar cubes, which are freely matched by guests according to their favorite tastes, and the white porcelain spoon is not used to drink coffee, but to stir.
Chen Qingdong was not a person who cared about these details, but because he felt that Xu Wei's personality was very arrogant, he didn't want to be ugly, and Xu Wei saw it all over, so he added a little milk to his coffee according to what he learned from the movie, and then stirred it a few times with a spoon, put down the spoon, picked up the coffee and took a sip gently, the entrance was slightly bitter, and then it felt very mellow, and there was some fruity aftertaste, which was very good!
Xu Wei watched Chen Qingdong drink this sip of coffee, and knew that although Chen Qingdong was from the countryside, he was not a dirt bun who couldn't even drink coffee, so she also had a good impression of Chen Qingdong in her heart, and said, "Does it taste okay?"
Chen Qingdong nodded and praised: "It's good, it's delicious." The famous Blue Mountain Coffee really lives up to its name. ”
"Do you usually like to drink coffee?" Xu Wei asked with a smile again.
Chen Qingdong wanted to say that he liked it, but then he thought about it, if Xu Wei then wanted to talk to him about the instructions about coffee, if he didn't know, then he really lived up to the statement that he liked coffee, but if he said that he knew, but in fact, he didn't know at all, and only occasionally saw the coffee knowledge of Dianxing from some magazines and idle books, which was really not understood, and once it was debunked, it would be very embarrassing
After thinking about it, Chen Qingdong said honestly: "Actually, I usually like to drink tea and don't know much about coffee, but I read some magazines that say that Blue Mountain coffee is the best coffee in the world and the most expensive coffee. ”
