Chapter 58: Blind Date

Talking about the experience of studying abroad, Qin Qiuxia is like opening the conversation, under the guidance of Yang Guo, a former foreign trade elite, the more she talks, the happier she becomes, and almost shakes out her bottom line.

Speaking of which, Qin Qiuxia does have the capital to be proud: the identity of a returnee, her master's degree, her good looks, and her work is also the kind that Yang Guo looked up to in the past - high monthly salary and high benefits, salary of more than fifteen months a year, working place in the CBD center and a comfortable and high-end working environment. With her conditions, she can indeed be proud of the vast majority of graduates in China.

It's just that Qin Qiuxia's contempt for domestic education and work in small companies expressed in her words made Yang Guo feel a little unhappy.

Probably because I drank too much foreign ink, there are always some people in China, who come back from studying abroad, and boast of being superior, thinking that everything abroad is good, and nothing is pleasing to the eye at home. They are like being brainwashed by pyramid schemes, thinking that the outside world is beautiful, free in thought, and the sky is vast, while the country is full of constraints and the system is rotten. But is that really the case?

In fact, there will be a dark side under any system, these people look at the good things abroad, and ignore the bad side, but look at the country upside down, and all the good things are ignored.

Yang Guo is not superstitious about how good it is at home, but he also doesn't think that foreign countries must be heaven, so many people come back from studying abroad every year, do they not know how to read goods and don't want to stay abroad? It's not that I've been outside for a long time, but I feel uncomfortable everywhere, and it's easy to encounter racial discrimination, and in the end, I find that it's still the warmth of my hometown. So although Yang Guo didn't bother to refute or correct these people's wrong views, every time he listened to such words, he always felt unhappy in his heart.

How can you forget your ancestors?

While the waiter was serving, Yang Guo interrupted Qin Qiuxia's conversation and said with a smile: "Cathy, try the craftsmanship of this café." He also kindly pushed the tiramisu cake in front of Qin Qiuxia.

Qin Qiuxia's eating posture is very polite, and the fork and spoon are very pleasing to the eye when eating noodles, on the other hand, Yang Guo, when dealing with the steak in front of him, the knife and fork are used a little clumsily.

It wasn't that he hadn't eaten Western food before, but he had only eaten with a knife and fork a few times, and in order to prevent the knife and fork from making a sharp sound in the white porcelain plate, Yang Guo struggled to cut the steak into pieces.

The afterglow of the setting sun has dissipated at this time, and the dark yellow lights of the café and the faint sound of the violin make the atmosphere even more romantic and warm. It's just that Yang Guo doesn't have that mood to savor it, and now he is blushing and hurriedly eating the ugly steak in front of him.

Qin Qiuxia also had some eyes at this time, and she didn't talk about Yang Guo's actions. She picked up the cappuccino, took a sip gently, then picked up the cloth, wiped the corners of her lips, looked at Yang Guo and asked, "Yang Guo, what are you doing now?" ”

"I'm now," Yang Guo thought for a moment and said, "It's a freelance job!" ”

"Freelancing?" Qin Qiuxia has been on a blind date so many times, and it is the first time she has met someone who said that she is a freelancer. You know, you can say that you are a freelancer without a job. She asked suspiciously, "Then do you want to open a pany?" ”

"Start a company? There are no plans for this for the time being. Yang Guo shook his head and said.

Qin Qiuxia's eyebrows furrowed and asked, "Then you are at home all day?" Seeing Yang Guo nodded, she asked again: "Stay at home all day, how can you guarantee your IE?" Do you still need your parents to provide for you? The gnawing old people are the most useless people in this society! ”

At this time, she realized that her tone was a little heavy, and she was afraid that Yang Guo would be annoyed and embarrassed, so she hurriedly said: "Sorry, I_don 't_mean_that......" (I didn't mean that)

"No, no," Yang Guo smiled, "I can understand what you mean, but you may have misunderstood." When I say freelancing, it doesn't mean that I don't have a job at all, I work as a translator, and I can work from home, so I don't need to go to work. ”

"Translator, oh!" Qin Qiuxia nodded thoughtfully and said, "Then I understand." ”

She hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I also have a few friends, they are also in Yang Guo's business, but their salary is really not high, and this line of work is very tiring and hard." ”

"Haha, it's out of interest!" Yang Guo said with a smile.

Qin Qiuxia is quite attentive to Yang Guo's feelings when she speaks now, but Yang Guo still has some slander in his heart, if it is really calculated, the income of the two of them really doesn't know who is higher and who is lower! You must know that Yang Guo's monthly income is now at the level of 50,000 to 100,000!

Speaking of being very tired and hard, Yang Guo is even more hehe! What kind of work is as hard as a foreign company (meaning at the same salary level)? Foreign companies have to work more than ten hours a day, and sometimes they have to work overtime on weekends, but Yang Guo only translates for five or six hours a day, and the rest of the time is under his own control, and if there is anything usual, he can also give himself a holiday at any time. When it comes to tiredness and hard work, there really is no comparison between the two.

Yang Guo found that while talking, he talked about money again, which is one of the reasons why Yang Guo doesn't like blind dates. He remembered seeing a joke about a man and a woman going on a blind date......

The woman asked, "Do you have a house with three bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms?" Do you have a car? ”

The man replied, "No ......"

The woman's face changed, and she stood up and made a gesture to leave.

The man said: "I have a single-family villa, why do I want to live in a small suite?" I usually drive a sports car, do I need to change to a car? ”

The woman's ass fell again, and she smiled sweetly.

The man continued: "When I started my business, I mortgaged my villa and car, and now I have no cash at all. ”

The woman was furious, stood up and said, "I have something to do, go first." ”

The man said: "But fortunately, I got the venture capital of the United States, and the company went public." ”

The woman turned and sat down, smiled, and the blind date continued.

The man said: "However, the IT market has been sluggish recently, and the stock has fallen below the issue price and is about to be suspended." ”

The woman stood up abruptly and said, "I really have something, I want to leave." ”

The man hurriedly said: "Fortunately, my company was acquired by Micro Hard Company, and with hundreds of millions of cash, I can now make a comeback." ”

The woman smiled, turned around and sat down again, and said, "You are so bad, you always make fun of people." ”

At this time, two doctors in white coats ran in, grabbed the man, and scolded and said, "You kid ran out of the hospital again, go back and take medicine!" ”

This joke is not high, but it also reflects the essence of blind date between men and women in modern society, in the final analysis, it is not to look at the income, to see if there is a house, to see if there is a car, sometimes, the blind date is still brought by the parents, and when they meet, they ask how much is a month's salary.

Yang Guo is very disgusted with such a blind date, will there still be feelings for the marriage obtained in this way? Money is in charge, isn't love already important?

The reason why Yang Guo was able to talk to Qin Qiuxia for so long was not only because of Liu Suqin, but also because Qin Qiuxia was not as explicit as the woman in the story. But after all, it is inseparable, and in the end, we still have to talk about the key issue of money.

Liu Suqin once told Yang Guo not to tell him about his unmarried child, to say more good things on the first blind date, and to speak slowly when the time is ripe.

But Yang Guo really has no interest in Qin Qiuxia now, although he has always been with her, but Yang Guo's ideology is completely different from her! After chatting and chatting until now, Qin Qiuxia has always wanted to correct Yang Guo's "wrong" values and professional outlook, how can he be willing to continue?

Qin Qiuxia is actually not bad, she is not a snobbish woman, when she talks about salary, she hopes that her future partner can have the same responsibility as her. It's just that she should look for a partner in her own circle, find a man who is like-minded with her and can talk together.

Since this was the case, Yang Guo felt that there was no need to waste everyone's time, and he smiled and said to Qin Qiuxia: "Cathy, I don't know if you know something. ”

Qin Qiuxia put down the cup and asked strangely, "What's the matter?" ”

"Although I have never been married, I already have a daughter, who is not yet a year old, and I am carrying it." Saying this, Yang Guo saw a look of surprise and disbelief in Qin Qiuxia's eyes.

"This, this ......" Qin Qiuxia, who had always spoken endlessly, didn't know what to say now.

Yang Guo smiled slightly and said, "I said this, mainly because I don't want to hide it from you. You see we've been talking for so long today, and we should let you know that if it's not suitable, we don't need to waste time in the future, right? And if you can't accept it, I can understand that it's all human nature! Yang Guo saw Qin Qiuxia's dilemma, and simply gave her a step down.

Qin Qiuxia also reflected the ability and boldness of the female elite working in foreign companies at this time, she packed the bag in her hand, stood up, stretched out her hand to Yang Guo, and said: "I admire and appreciate your honesty, but this is a major marriage event, I really can't help it...... That one. Thank you for your understanding. ”

Yang Guo hurriedly stood up, he was at least two heads taller than Qin Qiuxia. Yang Guo leaned down to shake hands with Qin Qiuxia and said with a smile: "It's okay, I can understand." ”

"And that's it for today?" Qin Qiuxia walked out of the booth and said, "Today, it's_on_my_treat (I pay), I know it's not easy for you to take care of children as a man." ”

Yang Guo just sat down, quickly stood up again, and said, "It's not ......"

"Okay, you don't have to rob it." Qin Qiuxia's temperament as a strong woman is now fully displayed, and before Yang Guo finished speaking, she pressed Yang Guo back into her seat, waved her hand heroically, and said, "Goodbye, see you in the future." She went to the front desk to check out without saying anything, leaving only a back for Yang Guo.

Yang Guo stood up again with tears and laughter, shook his head, and shouted depressedly in his heart: "What's not easy? It's easy for me! I'm really rich......" was sympathized with by a woman, and the blind date also made the other party pay, Yang Guo felt that his little self-esteem was a little hit.

So be it, the first blind date in my life can be regarded as a dramatic end. Yang Guo hooked the coat on his shoulder with his right hand, and put his left hand in his pocket, and slowly walked out of the café. The night is thick, the street lights are bright, the sidewalks are full of people, so noisy and noisy, how can there be a comfortable home?

took out his mobile phone to call Song Zhiwen, although the car had not arrived, Yang Guo was ready to meet the old lady's reproach for hating iron and steel.
