208. VIP150 - Banquet Invitation
The high fever at the beginning of summer was not completely stabilized until the evening, and her spirit was much better than before, but unfortunately, there was still no appetite, and although Qiao Yusen had done her best to cook a few dishes that she liked to eat in her daily life, it still did not hook the cravings in her stomach.
Seeing her gradually shake her head at the top table of dishes at the table, Qiao Yusen felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
"You have to eat some."
"Hmm." Xia Chu nodded: "I'm thinking about which one to start with." ”
Jonathan Jonathan: "...... Sounds a bit like murder. ”
Xia Chu finally picked up the chopsticks, even if she had no appetite at this moment, but Qiao Yusen made a table full of his favorite dishes, and he couldn't let him be busy in vain in the end, but when she was about to start, the doorbell was ringed, Qiao Yusen and Xia Chu looked at each other, and they both felt a little incredible.
"Who knew you lived here?"
Shaking his head at the beginning of summer:
"There's no one else but you."
"Salesman?"
"Don't you know the way when you look at it?"
Qiao Yusen got up from the chair and walked towards the door, Xia Chu also followed because he was curious, but when the door opened, not only Xia Chu and Qiao Yusen were surprised, but even the visitors outside the door couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, Carl probably didn't expect Qiao Yusen to be in Xia Chu's apartment, his eyes widened in surprise, his mouth opened, and finally he wondered:
"Teacher Qiao, why are you in the apartment at the beginning of summer?"
Compared to Carl's doubts, Bella behind her seemed very calm, after all, she knew what Qiao Yusen had come here to teach because of her.
For Carl and Bella, Jo Yusen only took a few seconds to buffer the situation, and soon he returned to normal:
"Why are you here?"
"Penny didn't have class today, we were worried, so we came over to have a look."
"It's really heartfelt that I can still find time to come over with such a heavy study."
Qiao Yusen's words made Xia Chu can't help but sneer in his heart, this is his own apartment, but he is posing like a male host, is this really good? But Carl didn't really care, he handed the gift in his hand to Jo Yusen, and then walked straight to the beginning of summer:
"Penny, what's wrong with you?"
Xia Chu smiled:
"It's a little uncomfortable, but it's okay now, how do you know that I live here?"
"You have the address on your student file, which shouldn't be a strange thing, right?"
When entering the school, the student's complete file is required, and Carl probably went to transfer the file, although Xia Chu didn't like this method very much, but he was helpless about the situation in front of him.
Bella also walked in and said to Xia Chu with a somewhat expressionless face:
"Carl asked me to come with him."
The subtext is that I didn't take the initiative to come, don't get me wrong, I don't have such a good relationship with you.
Xia Chu didn't care, and smiled slightly:
"Thank you."
Carl probably hadn't eaten yet, and when he smelled the smell of rice wafting from the restaurant, he couldn't help but sniff hard:
"Penny, it's so fragrant, are you eating?"
Xia Chu glanced at Qiao Yusen, who was standing behind Carl and Bella, and smiled slightly:
"yes, I'm eating, have you eaten? If not, let's go together. ”
"Is that okay?" Carl was apparently waiting for Xia Chu's invitation: "I haven't had dinner yet, so I'm going to thank you, is it Chinese food?" My favorite thing is Chinese food! ”
Xia Chu smiled and walked to the restaurant with Carl, and when Jo Yusen was about to walk over, Bella suddenly spoke:
"You're living together?"
"You're concerned about this?"
"You are the man I have my eye on, so naturally you have to care about this issue."
Jo Yusen chuckled:
"You're a woman I don't care about, and I'm not obligated to answer your question."
With that, he walked to the restaurant first, and Bella looked at his back, but she wasn't very angry, just a smile that evoked an intriguing smile, as if everything was under her control.
The four of them sat in the restaurant, Jo Yusen and Xia Chu sat side by side, and Carl and bella sat opposite, during the meal, Carl was full of praise for Jo Yusen's craftsmanship, and praised again and again, Jo Yusen just smiled, he could see that Carl was not just a friendship between men and women for Xia Chu, but at the same time he was very sure that in Xia Chu's heart, Carl was indeed treated as an ordinary classmate, although he had a little bit of mustard in his heart, but it was not serious.
Carl, who had eaten, inquired about Xia Chu's physical condition again, and after making sure that she would show up on time for the next class, he got up to say goodbye, and Bella stood up with him and said the first words at the dinner table:
"There's something I want to give you."
This sentence was said to Qiao Yusen, but his eyes were looking at Xia Chu, Xia Chu didn't feel it, but she didn't care about it.
Jo Yusen glanced at the beginning of the summer before asking Bella:
"What's that?"
Bella smiled slightly, took out an invitation-like card from her bag, and handed it to Qiao Yusen:
"My father knows that you have come to the United States, and he specially invited you to his birthday dinner."
Jo Yusen took it, opened it and looked at it, it was indeed Steve's birthday invitation card, he closed the invitation, and smiled:
"Tell your father on my behalf, thank you for the invitation, I will definitely be there."
"I thought you'd say no."
"That's just what you think."
"Okay." Bella shrugged her shoulders indifferently: "In that case, then I'll see you then." ”
After sending bella and Carl away, Jo Yusen shook the card in his hand:
"The banquet is tomorrow night."
"And then?" After Xia Chu finished speaking, she sat on the sofa, and the sequelae after the high fever made her whole body soft, so she hugged a pillow and lay on the sofa.
"Do you have time?"
The eyes that had just closed at the beginning of summer suddenly opened again:
"You mean you want me to be there with you?"
"Is that okay?"
Xia Chu looked at Qiao Yusen: "Then it depends on what reason you have to use to convince me." ”
She did not exclude attending with Joe Yusen, not because she liked such a banquet, but because she knew that Jo Yusen needed herself, X International also had a branch in the United States, if Jo Yusen made a phone call, the people in the public relations department could indeed arrange the best public relations staff to accompany him in the shortest possible time, but Xia Chu knew that Jo Yusen was not willing to do this, he came to the United States for a private trip, and he did not want to leak to the personnel of his company and let his life be disturbed for the next half a year.
Qiao Yusen looked at Xia Chu, raised his eyebrows and smiled, but did not speak, because Xia Chu's words had already told him the answer, and she would attend with him.
At night, Qiao Yusen didn't go back to his apartment, even if he rushed again at the beginning of the summer, he was still very relieved, after all, there was a recurrence of the situation when he had a fever at the beginning of the summer last time, and he was worried that this time there would be the same situation as the previous time, and in desperation, the beginning of the summer had to compromise, throwing out a pillow and a quilt for him to sleep on the sofa.
Qiao Yusen was lying on the sofa, couldn't help smiling, and said to Xia Chu, who turned around to enter the bedroom:
"Actually, even if you let me in, I won't do anything to you."
"Don't you think this is the most insincere of all the lies men tell?"
Jo Yusen raised an eyebrow:
"Okay, but I still want to say that I really won't do anything to you unless you willingly give it to me."
"Dream on you!"
"Good night, feel free to call me if you feel unwell."
Xia Chu didn't say anything more, went straight into the bedroom, and closed the door.
The next day, Qiao Yusen took Xia Chu to choose a dress, Xia Chu came to the United States to study, those beautiful and expensive dresses naturally did not have the opportunity to cross the ocean, but the evening banquet was necessary to wear a dress, and at this moment could only be bought.
This is the second time that Qiao Yusen and Xia Chu have gone shopping, the first time is that Xia Chu helped Qiao Yusen buy a dress, and this time Qiao Yusen helped Xia Chu choose a dress, time has not passed for a long time, but the relationship between these two people has changed a lot, but for the two of them at this moment, they don't care about this matter.
Jo Yusen drove to Newbury Street at the beginning of the summer, this Victorian-style pedestrian street, is the most famous commercial street in Boston, where hundreds of top brands and fashion brands gathered, the beginning of the summer is the first time to come to Boston, but also the first time to come to Newbury, so she thought that Jo Yusen would take his family to look over, but he didn't want to, he grabbed Xia Chu's hand as if he was very directional, and walked straight inside.
After walking for about 5 minutes, Qiao Yusen stopped in front of a store, and Xia Chu raised his eyes to look, Marchesa.
Jo Yusen smiled slightly:
"Channel's brands are the dresses that will appear at every banquet, even if the style is different, but the brand is the same, and today we will try a different one."
"You've been here before?"
"Why do you think so?"
"Because you seem familiar with this place."
Jo Yusen smiled and didn't answer her question, just took her hand: "Go in." ”
After entering the store, I was soon greeted by a tall and sweet-looking waiter:
"Mr. Qiao, the dress you want is ready, please come here to try it on."
Really!
Xia Chu didn't feel surprised, Jo Yusen is a person who can make people feel unexpected, but she doesn't quite understand why he has only been in Boston for a few days, how can he be familiar with everything here? Qiao Yusen seemed to see Xia Chu's doubts, and smiled slightly:
"I've had some crossings with the founder of Marchesa, she owes me a favor on certain things, and when I called her yesterday, she gave me the address and said she would prepare the dress for me personally."
[There will be unexpected people coming out next~~]
