After returning to the town, I started to budget for the investment of the downtown store again, and with the continuous development of the fat stall, it is foreseeable that my life will become more and more busy, and I like this busyness, and I want to complete my rise as soon as possible.

By the time I came back from my work due to hunger, it was already 11 o'clock in the middle of the night, and I made myself a bowl of noodles, and this was my dinner today, although it was a little bleak, but my heart was steady.

The warmth given by Zuo Lan, I am not blessed!

Light a cigarette, lean back in the chair relaxedly, and wait for the instant noodles to bubble up, I am always comfortable and satisfied at this time!

In the smoke, I suddenly saw myself in the mirror, and saw the endless thoughts, which made me unhappy, made me feel that the night was too dark, and I was like a wolf running alone in the night, exhausted, but never daring to stagnate, just for a glimmer of light that might appear tomorrow......

In a trance, the noodles have been soaked, I can't bear to waste, bite by bite, as if eating the exaggeration of life, I can't help but ask myself, when can I Zhang Yixi live a warm, calm life, and never have to drift.

Every now and then, I miss Angel very much, and now it seems that she is the most likely woman to start a family with me, and I want to tell her how I position myself for our family in the future.

I turned my thoughts about family into a question to Angel: "Do you hope that in the future we will have a nice house with a sea view by the sea?" ”

After a while, Angel sent me a message back: "You like the sea? ”

"Most men with big hearts like the sea because it interprets our lives."

Angel smiled back: "You're quite narcissistic!" If you like the sea, we can live in Gulangyu in the winter, and I have a sea view room there. ”

Angel's message made me smile helplessly, about material dreams, it seems that she has never been a dream, it is too easy to achieve!

"I still prefer Sanya." I messaged Angel back.

Angel didn't seem to understand what I meant, and she sent me this message: "I also have a sea view house in Yalong Bay, four bedrooms, Mediterranean style, I guess you must like it." ”

"I like it, how can I not like it." I smiled wryly and sent this message to Anqi, I Zhang Yixi has a busy life, and I may not be able to earn money for a sea-view house, although I often warn myself not to care about the material gap with Anqi, but once it is mentioned, I feel bitter in addition to helplessness, this feeling is not good at all!

.......

l Two days later, I received a call from Chen Qingyi, she told me: she had gotten off the plane, was rushing to the direction of the city, asked me to go to the city to meet her, we made an appointment to meet at Lotte Mart, just to take her to inspect the shop that Lotte Mart is renting.

The weather was already relatively cold, and when I saw Chen Qingyi again, she was already wearing a thin white down jacket, a beige mesh scarf, and a pair of thin-rimmed white-framed glasses made her look dignified and steady.

"Why don't you call me in advance, I'll pick you up at the airport, and you can call by yourself." I took the duffel bag in Chen Qingyi's hand and said.

Chen Qingyi smiled and said, "I know you're also busy, so I'll try not to trouble you as much as possible." ”

"What trouble is there to talk about between us, let's go, eat first, and I'll take you to inspect the store later."

Chen Qingyi looked at me in surprise: "You have already chosen a store?" ”

I nodded and replied: "Recently, I have been busy with the fat stall in the city, and there happens to be a very promising business district here, and there are many shops that are being rented out, we can take a look at it first, as for whether to invest, we will analyze it after inspection." ”

"Are you fat stalls ready to invest in this business district?" Chen Qingyi asked me.

"It is basically determined that there are many large office buildings here, the crowd is relatively concentrated, the development potential is very large, and it has investment value."

"That's good, if that's the case, we have no problem investing in Seaview Coffee here, so we can be close to your store again...... By the way, I forgot to tell you that the original store in Ciro in the university town has been reorganized by us, and now it is also part of Seaview Coffee. ”

"yes, that's good." I said with a smile, but lit myself a cigarette.

Chen Qingyi patted me on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, although we are using that store, but when you return to Nantong and need to revive Xiluo, we can contribute it for free, to be precise, to return it to you." ”

"Didn't you say, let me pay off your favor this time? I can't pay you back your favor if you do this! ”

"This is not a favor, that shop is originally yours, and I am just temporarily helping you keep it."

I glanced at Chen Qingyi gratefully and didn't say anything more.

.......

Chen Qingyi and I had lunch together at a restaurant near Lotte Mart, and then took her to see the 400-square-meter shop and inspect the development potential of the surrounding shops and business circles.

"Zhang Yixi, I think we can invest here." Chen Qingyi said to me.

"Do you want to see other business districts?"

Chen Qingyi shook his head and said: "No need, I think: since you choose to invest here, then you must have done detailed market research, I just follow you, you Zhang Yixi never fight a battle that you are not sure of." ”

"Do you trust me that much? That's a multimillion-dollar investment! ”

"I've always trusted you so much, so you're a lot of redundant questions...... Now I'll go find a hotel to rest for a while, and in the evening you have to cook and invite me to eat Jinan's specialties. Chen Qingyi said as she walked forward.

I helped Chen Qingyi book a hotel nearby, and helped her bring her luggage to the room, settle down, and I said to her: "You rest first, call me when you wake up, and I will pick you up." ”

"Are you going back to town? It's already 3 o'clock, so I'll just rest for two or three hours, I'm afraid it's not enough to go back and forth, right? ”

"Then I'll go find a café and sit down."

"Zhang Yixi, you can rest here." Chen Qingyi looked at the sofa next to the bed and said to me.

"No need."

"Would you mind sharing a room with me?"

"It's not good for a lonely woman to live in the same room."

"Hehe, we didn't live in the same room before, why do you mind so much now, because you and Mr. An are in love?" Chen Qingyi looked at me with a gaze that could pierce my body.

"I don't deny it, I don't believe she would want me to be in the same room with other women, even if I and this woman are just ordinary friends."

Chen Qingyi nodded and said, "It's okay, I understand, so let's go open another hourly room, don't run around, take a good rest." As he spoke, he walked out of the room and headed for the elevator.

.......

Lying in Chen Qingyi's hourly room, I didn't feel sleepy at all, I lit a cigarette, habitually stared at the ceiling in a daze, and after smoking a cigarette, I couldn't help but ask myself: Is it possible for me to love Angel alone? ......... Maybe I've done it.

The message prompt of the mobile phone, without any warning, I picked it up and looked at it, it was Anqi's message, I smiled, she can send me a message during working hours, it must be because she misses me very much.

I opened the message, and my smile suddenly froze: "Yixi, Yan Zhiyuan (Anqi's first boyfriend) came to France to find me." (2nd Update)
