Zhou Chonghan feels that when people make decisions, they have to weigh the pros and cons of small things, and they have to obey the subconscious when they make big things. In his view, coincidence is the revelation of life, and he follows this revelation, only to fall into the pit.

That day, the people of their design institute had dinner with the bosses of several construction companies, he went a little late, and as soon as he entered, he noticed Song Qiaobi, she was sitting next to Lao Zhang in the business department, squinting her eyes and smiling, and when she saw him coming, she stood up and shook hands with him: "Teacher Zhou, I am fortunate to meet, I am fortunate to be ...... I have long heard that you are a big celebrity in the North Courtyard, a big designer hired back from the UK, and the Sheffield Art Museum that you participated in the design is simply a masterpiece! I heard that the new Grand Theater in Tiger Beach Paradise is also from your design...... It's better to see than to hear, no wonder the girls in the design institute can't hold it, you yourself look much more handsome than the photo......"

Zhou Chonghan noticed that her face was slightly wrinkled when she laughed, a little pretentious, and a slender cigarette was sandwiched between her other fingers, and her nails were brightly painted, which was the same color as the color on her lips.

She can also speak, her voice is still a little crispy, and the people below laugh coaxingly, so she took the opportunity to hand over her business card, Zhou Chonghan took it, only saw the word "Qiao" on the business card, did not pay attention to it, politely said a good meeting, and then sat down and ignored her.

Zhou Chonghan has never lacked women around him, let alone beautiful women, although British girls are notoriously ungood-looking, but occasionally a few, but also delicate and refined, mixed with blood, solemn if frivolous, later he had the opportunity to travel to other countries, made a few beauties from Eastern Europe and Southern Europe, it is really amazing, really like a Barbie model in the window, but after watching it for a long time, I always feel that the cheeks are long and bony and the blue-green eyes are sinking into the abyss.

After returning to China, he felt even more that Oriental women were quite charming, feminine and decent, like tea, bitter first and then fragrant, with a little thought. The southern ones are more sophisticated than the northern ones, but they are slightly weak and lacking in warmth, like small plates and small bowls, the ultimate beauty of Japanese style, but not as good as the pavilions of northern women and sassy.

However, whether this is beautiful or not depends on everyone's preferences, some people love the jasmine mouth, some people love the peony big eyes, and some people prefer the small whirlpool on the face...... There is no scientific reason.

In his opinion, a woman's beauty is one point of beauty, two points of dress, three points of intelligence, and four points of charm, and the woman opposite is barely passing at most.

The reason why he noticed Song Qiaobi was entirely because she looked like another person.

That person is a little brighter than Song Qiao's skin, a little sharper, and he also has this pair of eyebrows and eyes, this tone, but that person is not likely to laugh so freely, and without a trace in the philistine*, the men at the table laughed together, and tentatively made some half-concealed meat jokes with her.

She is not stage frightened, holding a cigarette, shrugging her shoulders, and speaking wittily and with ease.

Well, it's not that person.

During the banquet, he drank a little more unconsciously, Xu is face had a good atmosphere, Xu is a beauty under the lamp, the more he looked at it, the more beautiful it became, he couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

Narrow face, round jaw, thin eyebrows and phoenix eyes, thin lips and black hair, wearing two large round earrings shining with silver light, swaying, occasionally pulling hair and dressing, scratching the head and making postures, there is a different kind of charm.

Someone took her head and teased her, and asked her seriously how much she knew about the Rogers Design Model Exhibition, but she didn't expect her to be able to say a thing or two, although people in the circle knew that she was mostly Baidu Encyclopedia, but people also did their homework, he took a puff of cigarette and looked at her in the fog.

In the end, she approached him and saluted him with a wine glass: "Teacher Zhou, you will take care of us more in the future, what are the good projects, think about us...... A cow like you, a word is actually a matter of one sentence......"

He didn't say yes or no, but just clinked glasses with her and drank the wine in the glass, when someone called him, and he turned around and went to socialize.

The second time is also a coincidence.

He had dinner with his prospective fiancée Meng Ke at the Kuncheng Old Restaurant, and Meng Ke asked him, "How is the new house in the central square decorated?" ”

"I haven't been over to look at it for a few days, I'm looking for Lao Zhang to help me keep an eye on it, the floor is finished, and I've been in the furniture these days......"

"You've got the furniture?" Meng Ke was surprised.

"Well, limited reservations, you need to place an order immediately, but rest assured, they are all solid wood imported from Germany, this material is familiar to me, and there is zero pollution." Zhou Chonghan raised his eyes and replied.

"Why didn't you talk to me? German furniture has not been popular in recent years, and the style is so earthy that it is ......"

"Isn't it practical?"

"I don't like it." Meng Ke twisted his mouth and said.

Zhou Chonghan frowned: "I don't like the kind of pastoral style you like." ”

These words are actually Zhou Chonghan's true thoughts, but now it sounds like he is raising the bar with someone.

Meng Ke was immediately unhappy: "Could it be that you alone have the final say on marriage?"

Zhou Chonghan replied calmly: "When it comes to getting married, I want to do it more efficiently, you just have to come." What he means is that he wants to do everything he can, but the speaker has no intention, and the listener has a heart, as if this can also be understood as - female, living, come quickly, and nothing else, don't talk about it.

Meng Ke's face turned red all of a sudden, and he brushed off his chopsticks, and his voice suddenly rose a little higher: "I didn't buy it from you!" You said you would come? If you think so, you can't live this day! You might as well get by on your own! ”

At this moment, a voice came from Zhou Chonghan's side: "Ah, isn't this Teacher Zhou!" ”

It's Song Qiaobi.

He didn't recognize her at first, she wore a water-green bat jacket, the most spicy damp green, embroidered with dark lines like grass or water snakes, pulling silk and climbing vines, outlining her body inch by inch, one by one came alive, stretched down, suspended and disappeared, suddenly revealing two thin flirtatious legs, she was wearing a pair of bright yellow stockings, strong color contrast, and almost blinded people's eyes.

She really didn't look like that person at all.

Zhou Chonghan couldn't call her name, so he didn't dare to call her, but just nodded.

Song Qiaobi walked closer, smiled and took turns looking at Zhou Chonghan and the woman opposite him: "I just came, waiting in the front position, this house is really hot, and I have to be numbered, I'm almost hungry and faint......"

"Yourself?"

"Yes, myself." Song Qiaobi rolled her eyes.

"Then come over and have a bite together......" Zhou Chonghan turned around and called the waiter: "Add another chair." ”

Song Qiaobi did not refuse, but happily sat over, took the menu, greeted the dishes, and greeted Zhou Chonghan and Meng Ke from time to time, decently and tactfully.

During this period, Song Qiaobi's mobile phone rang twice, but she didn't answer it, and hung up directly. Zhou Chonghan suspected that she was not alone, but should have a companion with her.

But he didn't say anything, just lowered his head and ate the fried oysters he had just ordered, crispy and tender, dipped in a little pepper and salt, fresh and fresh.

"Where is Mr. Meng?" Song Qiaobi asked Meng Ke.

Meng Ke kept his face calm, didn't look at her, and said coldly: "North Courtyard." ”

"Huh? Is it a colleague of Mr. Zhou? ”

“…… I am a faculty teacher. ”

"Oh, it's really time to call a teacher, Teacher Meng......" Song Qiaobi laughed with her here, but Meng Ke always ignored her with a stiff face.

The atmosphere was also a little awkward, but fortunately, a new dish was served at this time - three fresh stews, Song Qiaobi beckoned them to eat, and only Zhou Chonghan moved the chopsticks.

"Is Mr. Zhou a native of Kuncheng? Why can't I hear the accent at all? Song Qiaobi had nothing to say.

Zhou Chonghan replied: "Born in Kuncheng, grew up in Beijing, studied in the UK, and now it is considered to be a fallen leaf and return to its roots." ”

"I heard that your parents used to be lecturers in the architecture department of Tsinghua University, which is amazing."

"What else do you know about me?" Zhou Chonghan suddenly asked, Song Qiaobi chuckled in his heart, thinking that he was angry, but unexpectedly, he calmly continued: "It seems that not only the North Courtyard passed on my news, but you people outside know about it......"

"Although you have a lot of fans in the North Courtyard, the supernumerary ones are all ashes fans!" Song Qiao was relieved and laughed again.

Meng Ke couldn't sit still, and urged a few times openly and secretly, Zhou Chonghan slowly stood up to settle the bill, how could Song Qiaobi let him settle it, rushed to pay, came and went, you pushed me, Meng Ke was impatient, stood up on the ground, and left with his bag.

That meal, Zhou Chonghan still paid for it.

The third time, at the funeral of a certain leader of a municipal council.

Do your best, do your best, lead to the end of the dead wine, and future generations will be remembered, and the wine bureau will naturally be indispensable. On that day, several tables of people, the municipal bureau, the Ministry of Construction, the design institute, and large and small construction companies came, including directors, ministers, supervisors, managers, and beauties...... Fish and dragons are mixed, and all kinds of capable people gather together.

Zhou Chonghan saw an alumnus, surnamed Xu, a native of Beijing, who used to have a good relationship in the UK, and now when he drinks, he naturally chats deeply, and the two of them talk about municipal construction from China's construction industry to municipal construction, from engineering supervision to quality control in the later stage, and finally talk about speculation, they don't care about drinking, so they simply go to the corridor to smoke and chat.

"I heard that you're going to marry Meng Ke from the academy?" His alumnus asked him.

Zhou Chonghan shook his head: "No, it's scattered." ”

"How?"

"Personality incompatibility."

His alumni laughed: "Is it a personality incompatibility or a sexual incompatibility?" ”

Zhou Chonghan waved his hand: "Don't talk nonsense, you haven't reached that step......"

"When you are still reserved?"

"Arranged by the family, I was only ordered to get along, and I have known each other for less than a month......"

"Why are you in a hurry at home? I think you're long overdue for a blind date......"

Zhou Chonghan smiled bitterly: "I won't tell you, my old man was diagnosed with lung cancer, and now he is seeing a doctor in the United States...... My mom is afraid that he will leave early, and hopes that he will live to watch me get married......"

His alumni's face changed, and he hurriedly asked, "How is the old man now?" ”

Zhou Chonghan also had a condensation on his face: "In China, it is not very optimistic, and it cannot be operated, so it can only be ...... chemotherapy."

The topic seemed a little heavy, and both of them smoked in silence for a while.

Alumni Xu asked again, "Then what are you going to do next?" Do you want to get married first? ”

Zhou Chonghan nodded: "People can be changed, but marriage must be concluded." ”

"Oh, listen to what you mean, who to marry is a knot? Can you talk to anyone? ”

"Theoretically, yes." Zhou Chonghan lowered his head and thought for a while, indeed, he didn't think too much about marriage, at first he agreed with the family arrangement, and felt that the door was right, saving a lot of trouble, and now it seems that the real door should be spiritual.

However, it's one thing he thinks, and it's another thing to say: "Just be pretty and orderly." After all, he can't deny that my fair lady and gentleman are good, and men like beautiful women.

"That's hard to say, just pick one of these." His alumni pointed to the wine table inside, "There are a lot of beautiful women here, and they are all in a circle, and they know the roots, and they are not far behind......

Zhou Chonghan spit out a ball of smoke: "This circle? Hehe, come on, there are no beauties in this circle. ”

"Who said that? The one behind you is a beautiful woman......"

Zhou Chonghan turned around, and his eyes fell on Song Qiaobi.
