Chapter Twenty-Five: I See You're Gifted
In the era when Internet cafes and the Internet were not yet popular, libraries were always lively, especially at the end of August, when the heat had not completely left, and the library with sufficient air conditioning was definitely the best place for intellectual seekers to escape the summer heat.
This is the Xinhua Bookstore on Jiefang Road, the largest bookstore with the most complete books in the entire Yuzhou, Li Ye carefully walked through the narrow aisles, while scanning the dense bookshelves back and forth, trying not to touch the men, women and children standing next to the bookshelves holding books and nibbling on them.
He has been here all morning, so far, a total of two books he likes, one is the father of modern management Drucker's "Management: Tasks, Responsibilities, Practice", in the previous life, the founder of the Uniqlo Group, Yanai Masa, is by deeply rooting Drucker's ideas in the enterprise, to develop Uniqlo step by step into a world-class clothing group, and Yanai Masashi also took this opportunity to ascend to the throne of the richest man in Japan.
The other is Milan Kundera's most famous novel, The Unbearable Lightness of Life, which carries the revelation of the social connotation of political zhì, the investigation of human nature, the presentation of personal destiny in a specific historical and political context, and the exploration of the nature of the relationship between the sexes.
Learning is endless, although he is a reborn, but Li Ye knows that maybe in terms of design, he has superhuman talent and strength, but in other aspects, he is nothing more than a prediction of the development of the general trend of the world in the next ten years. There is still a long way to go before you can truly become the top class of people in this world.
Raising his wrist to look at the time, Li Ye went to the counter to settle the bill, walked out of the bookstore with the book, and saw the beautiful woman in white standing across the street at a glance.
Li Ye walked up to her, took the book in his hand, and said with a hippie smile: "Oh, this sister, I see that you are gifted and have a strange bones, you must be a rare martial arts wizard in a hundred years, I have a martial arts secret book here, I have a fate with you today, so I will sell it to you for ten yuan." ”
Although Xia Yanan didn't know that this was a line that would only appear in Stephen Chow's movie many years later, she still noticed the ridicule in Li Ye's tone, so she continued: "This younger brother, since he is related to me, why do you still charge money, my sister has no money, can you give me this cheat?" ”
"It's okay if you don't have money, as long as you are a maid for Young Master Ben, Young Master Ben can give it to you."
Xia Yanan pinched Li Ye's waist angrily, watching his smiling face instantly turn into a flattering and begging expression, and couldn't help laughing, "Why do you always mention the maid, it's not serious." ”
Li Ye held Xia Yanan's hand on his waist, "Okay, don't mention it, go to my house for dinner, I just have something to tell you." ”
Of course, going home is to go to the home of Longhuayuan Community, and Li Ye doesn't have the courage to take a woman to the place where his parents live now.
The two first bought some vegetables in the market, and then went upstairs together with things, Xia Yanan came to Longhuayuan Community for the first time, or the day Li Ye rescued her from the water, that time, she was desperate and helpless, debt and pressure forced her out of breath, but she didn't expect to come back a month later, everything she was carrying on her body had disappeared, and the vagaries of fate were unpredictable.
When I opened the door, there was a strange musty smell in the room, and there was dust everywhere in the room that had not been inhabited for almost a month. Xia Yanan opened all the windows in the room for ventilation, and looked at Li Ye with some disgust, "You guy, how can you eat when the house is dirty like this?" I was fooled by you today, and I was deceived by you to come here. ”
Seeing Li Ye leaning against the door and looking at her heartlessly, she was a little helpless while laughing, she put the dishes in the kitchen, walked out and quickly rolled up her sleeves, coiled up her long hair, and began to help Li Ye clean up the house, "Really, I still haven't escaped the life of being your maid." ”
Xia Yanan took a wet towel to wipe the sofa and coffee table, she was tall, she bent down when she wiped, her buttocks were slightly tilted, her whole body was exquisite, and her curves were soft.
Xia Yanan caught a glimpse of Li Ye staring at herself, and asked a little viciously, "Have you seen enough?" ”
Li Ye replied honestly: "No, I can't see enough." ”
"Hurry up and cook! Could it be that after I clean up for you, I still have to serve the eldest young master for you to eat? ”
The eldest young master reluctantly glanced at him a few more times, until Xia Yanan was about to hit him with a towel, and then dragged into the kitchen.
Li Ye is still quite picky about eating, especially in his previous life when he went to college and worked in Rongcheng, the city of food, his taste has long been raised, and by the way, he has also figured out a good cooking skill, the kitchen utensils in the house in Longhua Garden are complete, and the two of them chose some tomatoes, eggs, pork belly, bean skin, chicken and potatoes when they bought vegetables just now, Li Ye cleaned and cut them one by one, ready to make a few hard dishes.
Xia Yanan wiped all the furniture in the house, mopped the floor clean, and after finishing it, she smelled the fragrance of the kitchen, and walked over unconsciously.
The stewed chicken in the pot was steaming white, Li Ye was cutting the potatoes one by one, his face was solemn as if he was making handicrafts, Xia Yanan leaned against the edge of the door, and suddenly felt that this guy who was still flamboyant just now exuded a smell that could be relied on.
Li Ye swept the beautiful woman at the door, and said with a sideways face, "Sister Nan is hungry?" Go to the living room and wait, I'm almost ready, this can't be rushed, otherwise the taste will not be right. ”
Xia Yanan was looked at by him, and suddenly panicked in her heart, as if she had been peeked into the secret in her heart, and returned to the living room with a slight red face.
Li Ye came out with the chopsticks, watching Xia Yanan holding the book "The Unbearable Lightness of Life" he bought, Li Ye put down the dishes and chopsticks on the coffee table, and looked at Xia Yanan who was sitting condescendingly, the sun shone into the living room, her skin looked white and tender, the neckline of the white blouse was a little low, and she could even see the thrilling ravine.
As soon as Xia Yanan raised her head, the guy who still felt reliable and reliable just now stared at her chest, she stretched out her finger and poked at the face of the goods, Li Ye dodged it stupidly, and returned to the kitchen to bring out the rest of the dishes.
There are a total of three dishes and one soup, although they are all common home-cooked dishes, but it took Li Ye a lot of thought, and the taste is much better than that of ordinary restaurants, the two of them sat opposite each other with bowls, Li Ye was indifferent in his heart, but Xia Yanan was a little strange in his heart - how could this situation be similar to a small couple?
Xia Yanan calmed down her thoughts, and suddenly said, "You said you had something to tell me, what is the matter?" ”
"Sister, I see that you are talented and bone-studded, I ...... here"
"Stop, get down to business."
"Oh" Li Ye put down the dishes and chopsticks and stuffed a piece of stuff into Xia Yanan's hand, "Sister Nan, you take it first." ”
