Section 24: One-minute speed dating
I woke up in a daze, and it was already nine o'clock. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ye Mu turned over and got up, opened the window, and it was another sunny day. In the endless field, it seemed that the tractor with a big finger was already working, Ye Mu lazily twisted his waist pole and did a few chest expansion exercises.
Every day I get up and look at the fields, and remind myself that my current life is not a dream, and it doesn't feel too good.
"Cool!" Ye Mu moved his muscles and bones: "The current life is unimaginable. ”
The phone at the bedside rang for a while, Ye Mu turned around, picked up the phone, glanced at the number, and redialed: "What's the matter?" ”
"Q a ha, have you gotten up old?" Zhang Dongsheng was heartbroken for Ye Mu's lifelong event.
"I'm up, I'm getting ready to go. That's it......" Ye Mu said, hung up the phone, went to the bathroom to take a comfortable hot bath, rinsed himself, and saw that the time had been ten and twenty minutes. Only then did I have a sense of time, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, looking for clothes.
Ye Mu has a lot of clothes, from luxury brands such as Prada and Armani to ordinary Baleno, Jeanswest, and Lilang. Luxury brands are bought in Washington, and ordinary brands of clothes are sold in the county. Ye Mu usually buys clothes that are pleasing to the eye, and before he went to Washington to declare taxes, he went shopping in his spare time, and hauled back a lot of clothes. Most of them didn't even tear the label, and they didn't choose much, so they took a line jacket and a black laid-back jacket with a pair of jeans.
As the saying goes, if you have a handsome face and a good figure, you will look good in whatever you wear.
Move the car out of the crash and head toward Conrad County.
Ye Mu can only get his hands on a Wrangler, he has driven it to play mountain off-road before, and the body is covered with dust.
When he was about to get to the city, Ye Mu turned on the GPS navigation, found a nearby car wash, and cleaned the car. That said, the road from Conrad County to the small town of Park leads to the famous Glacier Park, which is a standard secondary road specification, wide, flat, with excellent views, on either side of plain pastures, and rolling mountain peaks in the distance.
In such an environment, driving a sports car is enough to taste.
On the road, Ye Mu also saw many sports cars, many of which were open-top styles, and everyone wore sunglasses, looking leisurely and enjoying it incomparably.
Called Zhang Dongsheng, he had just entered the city, Ye Mu told him the name of a restaurant, and went in and ordered three set meals.
After a while, Zhang Dongsheng and Anna walked in.
"You sullen character." Zhang Dongsheng looked at Ye Mu's dress, took a look, and complained about Ye Mu's dressing taste: "Prada's coat, Jeanswest's thread coat...... Washed old jeans. The watch is good...... I said, "What are you doing?" ”
"You don't care how I dress, it's comfortable."
After eating, Zhang Dongsheng continued to be busy with his affairs. Ye Mu went to the scene of the singles' carnival party, George Park.
The park is built on the hillside and has a large leisurely lawn and many public recreational facilities. Many cars were parked outside the park, and Ye Mu went to the counter of the organizer to fill in his name, paid a fee of $10, and got a badge symbolizing singleness, which was pinned to his chest.
"Sir, it's a one-minute speed dating venue here. Try your luck and you might find a girl you like. Under the guidance of the staff, Ye Mu entered an open-air café. Find an empty seat under a beautiful red maple tree and sit down.
After a while, the café staff brought coffee. The $10 paid just now included the money for this cup of coffee, but Ye Mu still took out his wallet, took out a dollar with the smallest denomination, and quietly handed it over.
$10, the waiter took the tip and smiled slightly, "Thank you, good luck afternoon." ”
Ye Mu smiled: "Thank you for your blessings." ”
The tipping culture is prevalent in the United States, especially in coffee shops. Generally speaking, a tip is given, and the cost of the tip is 15 to 20 percent of the consumption. For a cup of coffee, Ye Mu gave him a tip of two hundred percent, and it was normal for the waiter to say a good word happily.
Ye Mu is not pretending to be a fork, but just following the customs. After living here for a long time, you will find that tipping is a very natural thing to do. The culture of tipping is everywhere, and even if you spend money by card, you will see the tip column in your receipt list.
One-minute speed dating, the man sits, the woman comes, looks at the eyes and talks, and when he thinks it is appropriate, he goes for a walk in the park, leaving each other a phone call or a way to communicate.
Under the red maple tree, at the time of a cup of coffee, several people have changed at the two tables next to them. Ye Mu also waited for the woman who came forward to talk, a middle-aged young woman in her thirties, dressed fashionably, and asked Ye Mu's age when she came up.
Twenty-seven, and in another three months twenty-eight.
Obviously, Ye Mu's age did not meet the conditions for a young woman's mate selection, so he got up and left after chatting for a few words.
Not only her, Ye Mu also looks down on a woman who has been divorced and has given birth to children.
Then a few more people came, looking crooked melons and cracked dates, and there was no beauty. Several times he was invited to take a walk in the park, but Ye Mu politely smiled and declined.
Ye Mu also noticed that the people who came to speed dating were all elderly people, at least in their thirties, and most of them were over forty years old. The beauties did not see it, but there were many beautiful young women. Now Ye Mu feels that he has passed the age of frivolity and arrogance, looking at Zhang Dongsheng and Anna En in love, he also wants to find an ideal partner, get married and have children. I'm not planning to play anymore.
After drinking a cup of coffee and talking to more than a dozen women one after another, Ye Mu finally lost his patience and was about to leave, when a young and beautiful girl sat opposite Ye Mu, attracting the attention of many men around.
The girl has short hair, beautiful amber eyes, black eyebrows with a crescent moon, and a faint eyeliner.
Very beautiful girl, looking about twenty years old. Sitting in front of Ye Mu, pursing his mouth, he seemed to be angry about something, with fair skin, but the slightly baby fat face gave people a sense of affinity no matter how he looked at it.
Ye Mu waved his hand in front of her, waking her up from her own world and said, "Hi, hello." ”
The girl came back to her senses and said, "Hello. Sorry, I'm just trying to find a place to sit. ”
"Sit down." Ye Mu got up, this girl looked like she was still a student, a college student. Ye Mu was not interested in playing campus romance, it was too unreliable, and said: "I'll leave immediately, this is a one-minute speed dating venue, it's not a good choice for you to rest here as a beautiful girl." ”
"Speed dating, blind date?"
"Hmm." Ye Mu shrugged his shoulders and turned to leave.
Walking out of the café, the girl also walked out, caught up with Ye Mu, and said, "Thank you for the reminder." ”
"You're welcome." Ye Mu replied, the girl's face was dejected, she should have been in the park just now, and walked in by mistake: "Did something happen to you?" Look at the way you have a lot of thoughts. ”
"It's nothing, it's just a bad mood. You murmur, speed dating didn't work out? ”
"Yes, it didn't work out. I think I'm in the wrong place. Ye Mu spread out his hands and looked depressed.
The girl smiled and said, "One-minute speed dating is for middle-aged uncles and grandparents, at your age, you should go to a place where young people play." ”
