On the morning of the fourth day of junior high school, Lin Dong received a call from Gu Xiaoyu.

"Lin Dong, when are you going back to Sioux City?"

Lin Dong replied: "The specific date has not yet been decided, it should be before the tenth day of the new year." ”

Gu Xiaoyu asked, "Have you read the plan I sent you?" ”

Lin Dong smiled: "Look, it's pretty good, far more than I asked." ”

Gu Xiaoyu said: "I have visited all the relatives that should be visited, if you have time, we can meet and talk about the specific details." I had a brief chat with Secretary Yan before, and she was also interested and wanted to meet you very much. ”

Lin Dong smiled: "It just so happens that I'm fine today, or we'll see you at noon, and besides, I want to ask you for a favor." ”

Gu Xiaoyu said in a joking tone: "You won't be fighting with people again, right?" ”

"Uh, do you think I'm a child? How can you fight with people at every turn, this time I want you to find someone to help me test a bottle of water. Lin Dong said.

Gu Xiaoyu was extremely puzzled, "A bottle of water? What is there to test for water. ”

Lin Dong said with a smile: "This bottle of water is directly related to the success of our resort project, which is very important, you must not underestimate it." ”

When Gu Xiaoyu heard him say this, he knew that Lin Dong would not joke with him about this kind of thing, and said, "Okay, you bring it over, and I will help you contact the professor of our city's institute of science and technology and ask him to help with the test." ”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Dong drove to the town, bought a bottle of mineral water in a small shop on the side of the road, poured out all the water in it, and drove to the temple.

Before the fifth day of the first lunar month, the temple had not yet opened, so when he entered, he did not meet anyone along the way.

When I walked to the front, I saw the old monk I met last time.

The old monk also saw him, stopped what he was doing, and clasped his palms together. "Donor, let's meet again."

Lin Dong smiled: "Master, I'm sorry, I'm bothering again." I spilled the water I brought back last time, and I brought a bottle this time, can I go fill another bottle? ”

The old monk smiled and said, "Donor, please take care of yourself." ”

Lin Dongrao was too big and came to the front of the dilapidated temple where the Immortal Spring was located. Walked in and filled a bottle of water in a bottle of mineral water. Wait for him to go back to the front of the big one. The old monk is still sweeping the floor.

"Thank you, master, juniors are leaving." Lin Dong said respectfully.

The old monk said: "Donor, please stay, you have come twice to get the water from the Spring of Eternal Life, can you tell the old man why?" ”

Lin Dong said with a smile: "Master, the junior wants to take it for testing and see if he can unlock the secret of the magical effect of the Immortal Spring." ”

The old monk's face was solemn and he looked around. looked at the ancient trees in the ancient temple, waved his hand, and his face was confused, "You go." ”

Lin Dong was afraid that the old monk would regret it, so he quickened his pace and walked outside, and when he arrived outside the temple gate, he remembered the old monk's table just now, and thought that if he used the ancient temple as a gimmick to attract tourists, he would most likely be opposed by the old monks in the temple.

He shook his head, thinking to himself that nothing else would happen to him yet. When the time comes, if the old monks oppose it, as long as the government agrees, it will be useless for them to oppose it.

Lin Dong carefully put the bottle filled with the water of the Immortal Spring into the car, and then drove to the county seat. Gu Xiaoyu was still on vacation, and after arriving in the county seat, Lin Dong drove directly to Gu Xiaoyu's home in the county seat. Gu Xiaoyu's parents are both workers in the Huaicheng County Chemical Factory, so her family is in the collective community of the chemical factory.

Lin Dong parked the car at the gate of the community and sent a text message to Gu Xiaoyu. Tell her he's arrived.

Gu Xiaoyu received a text message and went out with her bag. Her parents were surprised to see her go out with makeup.

Gu Xiaoyu has always been very confident in her skin and appearance. Even when she attended very important occasions with Secretary Yan, she was faceless, and her parents rarely saw their daughter wearing makeup. So it was both surprising and strange to see my daughter go out and arrive after putting on makeup. …,

"Old man, I'll go with you to see where Xiaoyu went." Gu Xiaoyu's mother went out after speaking.

Gu Xiaoyu soon arrived at the gate of the community, and Lin Dong saw her coming from a distance, so he got out of the car.

"Squad leader, I'm here." Lin Dong waved his hand at Gu Xiaoyu.

Gu Xiaoyu walked towards him and said with a smile: "I saw you from afar, who can not see you when driving such an eye-catching car." ”

Lin Dong smiled and pulled the car door, "Squad leader, please get in the car." ”

Gu Xiaoyu glanced at him and said angrily: "I told you a long time ago not to call me squad leader in private, just call me 'Xiaoyu', and be careful if you call me wrong, I'll be angry!" ”

"That class...... Light rain, I remember. Lin Dong saw Gu Xiaoyu's abnormality today, her eyebrows swept lightly, her red lips were like fire, although she only put on a very simple makeup, but it added a lot of femininity to her, a strong woman, but she didn't expect that the other side of a strong woman was also quite exciting.

Lin Dong sat in the car and asked, "Where are we going?" ”

Gu Xiaoyu said: "I know that there is a café in the city that is quieter and very suitable for chatting, why don't we go there?" ”

Lin Dong said: "Okay, you show the way." ”

……

Gu Xiaoyu's mother saw her daughter get into a luxury car and hurried home to report the situation to her wife.

"Her dad, do you guess what we're going to do in Xiaoyu?"

Gu Xiaoyu's father put down the newspaper and asked, "Why did you go?" ”

"I went on a date, with a very rich and good-looking guy." Gu Xiaoyu's mother said excitedly.

Gu Xiaoyu's father is not so optimistic, "Those who have money spend a lot and a little, and our daughter has to find a down-to-earth and reliable person to have a son." ”

……

Under Gu Xiaoyu's guidance, Lin Dong drove the car to the door of the café in Lemberg. When he went in, the environment was very quiet and elegant, and the store was very empty, so he found a place to sit down. Gu Xiaoyu asked for a cup of coffee, and Lin Dong asked for a pot of flower tea.

"Tell me what the water does." Gu Xiaoyu asked anxiously.

Lin Dong replied: "This is actually something I discovered by accident, there is a big temple in our town, and the books inside the temple are still evergreen in winter, while the books outside have long since withered. Later, I inquired with the old monk in the temple, and the old monk took me to an ancient well, and the air was constantly coming out from under the ancient well. ”

Gu Xiaoyu said in surprise: "Oh my God, there can't be a hot spring hidden under that temple, right?" ”

Lin Dong nodded, "I think it may be that the temperature on the surface of the temple is indeed better than outside." So even in the winter when it had just rained, I had never seen ice in the big temple. ”

Gu Xiaoyu smiled: "This is a good gimmick, it should attract some people to come." ”

Lin Dong smiled: "Xiaoyu, what's even more amazing is that you don't know yet, this water is much more magical than you imagined." ”

Gu Xiaoyu asked, "What kind of magic method is it, you say." ”

Lin Dong shook his head, "I won't tell you for the time being." I won't be able to tell you until I have negotiated the conditions with Secretary Yan. ”

Gu Xiaoyu smiled: "You have really become a thorough businessman, okay." In that case, I won't ask any more. ”

Lin Dong said: "Let's start talking about the plan." ”

……

Both of them were workaholics, and they talked endlessly, until about two o'clock in the afternoon, when they thought of every detail of the plan, and stopped when they felt that there was nothing to add.

"Lin Dong, are you hungry?" Gu Xiaoyu asked.

Lin Dong nodded, "I didn't feel hungry just now." When you asked me this, I suddenly felt very embarrassed, and my stomach growled. ”

Gu Xiaoyu smiled: "You don't look at what time it is, we have been chatting for hours." Just order something to eat here. ”

Lin Dong nodded and called the waiter over, he asked for a bowl of beef noodles, and Gu Xiaoyu asked for a steak. …,

After filling in the stomach, Gu Xiaoyu said: "Didn't you ask me to help you find someone who will help you test the water, I have already found it, why don't I take you to see him now?" ”

Lin Dong said: "Okay." Let's go now. ”

"Okay, you drive to the Polytechnic Institute, he's waiting for us in the lab."

Lin Dong drove Gu Xiaoyu to the Institute of Technology, which is located in the city and is the only undergraduate university in Jiang City. When they got there, Gu Xiaoyu explained the situation to the outside of the door, and let them in outside the door. Lin Dong drove the car all the way to the downstairs of the laboratory of the Department of Chemistry.

"Wait a minute, I'll give him a call." Gu Xiaoyu finished speaking. I sat in the car and made a phone call, and within a few minutes of hanging up the phone, the man came down.

Gu Xiaoyu introduced: "Lin Dong. This is Professor Li from the Department of Chemistry of the Municipal Institute of Technology. ”

Lin Dong stepped forward to hold Professor Li's hand, "Hello Professor Li." My name is Lin Dong, and I am Gu Xiaoyu's high school classmate. ”

Professor Li is about 50 years old, thin and tall, wearing a pair of eyes, looking very good, and looking very good.

"Hello, I heard Xiao Gu say that you want to ask me to help test what kind of water?" Professor Li asked with a smile.

Lin Dong nodded, "That's right, Professor, it's the water in this bottle, you can help me test it to see what the difference is from ordinary water." ”

Professor Li said: "This is not a problem, it just takes some time, and I will give you an answer tomorrow at the earliest, and the day after tomorrow if it is later." You leave your phone number, and I'll call you when there's a result. ”

Lin Dong said his mobile phone number, and Professor Li stored it in his mobile phone.

"I still have something to do in the lab, so I won't invite you two up." Professor Li said.

"Professor, if you have something to do, go and get busy." Lin Dong said with a smile.

Professor Li nodded, turned around and walked towards the stairs.

Lin Dong and Gu Xiaoyu looked at each other and smiled, this person who is a scholar and researcher can see it at a glance.

The two of them came out of the polytechnic college, and it was not early.

Lin Dong said: "Xiaoyu, I'll send you back, right?" ”

Gu Xiaoyu nodded, "Lin Dong, let me ask you a question, what are you going to do to Liu Zhi'er after her divorce?" ”

Lin Dong said: "What do you mean?" ”

Gu Xiaoyu said bluntly: "Let me ask if you will be with her?" ”

Lin Dong was silent for a long time and did not answer.

"Do you dislike her for being married?" Gu Xiaoyu asked.

Lin Dong shook his head, "No, you don't know much about me, there is a woman between me and Liu Zhi'er, that is, my current girlfriend." I really don't know what to choose. ”

Lin Dong didn't see Gu Xiaoyu's disappointed expression at the moment, "You already have a girlfriend?" ”

Lin Dong nodded, "Yes, she didn't dislike me when I was down, and gave me a lot of help." ”

Gu Xiaoyu said: "You are still with her now, won't it be because you want to repay the favor?" ”

Lin Dong smiled: "That's not it, I'm sincere with her." ”

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoyu didn't say anything. It wasn't until Lin Dong drove her to the front of the collective community of the chemical plant, said goodbye to Lin Dong, pushed the car door and left. Lin Dong parked the car at the gate of the community for a while, stunned here for a long time, and couldn't understand why Gu Xiaoyu ignored him inexplicably.

"A woman's heart is a needle, this is not false at all, I better not think about it, go home."

Lin Dong turned the car around and went home.

When Gu Xiaoyu returned home, her mother greeted her.

"Xiaoyu, don't rush back to the room first, Mom asks you something."

Gu Xiaoyu stopped, "Mom, what do you want to ask me?" ”

"I saw you go to see a boy in the morning, that kid is good, have you been dating?" Gu Mu asked with a smile.

Gu Xiaoyu threw the bag on the sofa, "Mom, you follow me!" ”…,

Gu's mother smiled: "Mom didn't follow you, I went out to buy vegetables and happened to meet me." ”

Gu Xiaoyu said: "You still lied to me, the family bought so many vegetables a year ago, enough to eat for ten days and a half months, what vegetables did you go out to buy?" ”

"Xiaoyu, mom is also good for you, if you two really get along, invite him to the house, let me and your dad have a look." Gu Mu said.

Gu Xiaoyu deliberately put on makeup for Lin Dong today, but he didn't expect that he not only had willow branches, but also had a woman in Suzhou City, and he was angry when he thought that he was dressed up carefully for this man, and yelled at his mother: "You guys think about it too much, he is my high school classmate and has a girlfriend!" With that, he went into his room and slammed the door.

Gu's father walked out of the room and smiled at Gu's mother, "How about it, I told you a long time ago, don't see the wind and rain, just rejoice." ”

Gu's mother said coldly: "My daughters are twenty-six, why aren't you in a hurry as a father?" ”

Gu's father smiled: "My daughter is so good, one in a million, are you still afraid that she won't be able to get married?" ”

"Didn't you see it on TV? Those who can't get married are those who are beautiful and capable, you just drink tea and read the newspaper all day long, don't care about anything at home, it's all up to me to be busy, if I die, I'll see how you live! Mother Lin was angry with her daughter, so she lost her temper at Gu's father.

Father Gu hurriedly put down the newspaper, "Okay, okay, I'll cook tonight's dinner." ”

Gu's mother made a straight face and went back to the room to watch TV.

Gu Xiaoyu sat in the room, admiring herself in the mirror, with beautiful eyes and a high nose bridge...... Everything was so perfect, she couldn't figure out why Lin Dong would miss a village girl, but she couldn't understand her thoughts about him at all.

"Wood, bastard!" (To be continued)
