At noon, Lin Xi and I arrived in Yantai, and after a brief lunch, we inspected the market environment of Lotte Mart in this area, accompanied by the relevant personnel of Lotte Mart.

After inspecting Lotte Mart, Lin Xi and I went around the surroundings again, and we also had a rough judgment in our hearts.

Lin Xi asked me: "Yixi, what do you think of the market environment here, can you invest?" ”

"The formation of the popularity of this business district should be more laborious than that of Jinan, the geographical location is slightly biased, and it will take at least two to three years to form the climate, because we are membership-based and need the business district to have enough popularity to ensure it, so I am not inclined to open the sea view coffee here, as for whether to invest in the end, I have to make another judgment."

"If we don't invest in Yantai, does it mean that the cooperation with Lotte Mart cannot be reached? ....... I feel as if I have lived up to Manager Zhai's good intentions! ”

"This will not, we choose the market environment suitable for their own survival, it is understandable, and Lotte Mart not only has a store in Shandong, but also in Jiangsu, as long as we are dependent on them in the end to develop that is cooperation."

"Oh." Lin Xi nodded and stopped talking, she didn't have too much of an idea in terms of business investment.

.......

In the evening, I took Lin Xi to the beach and chose a restaurant with a sea view, and I felt great about the sea while dining!

"This is the second time I've seen the sea in my life, and the last time was in Lianyungang." I said to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi didn't care too much, she told me: "I've been to most of the cities in China that have the sea, and the last time I came back from the United States, I went to Hawaii, the Maldives and Phuket. ”

"Are you all on your own?" I asked with some envy.

"Of course not."

I smiled tacitly and didn't ask any more questions, of course I knew who was accompanying her to see the sea.

"I think it's better to look at the sea or be alone, when the whole seaside is just you, you can throw some garbage into the sea without any burden."

"You've only seen the sea twice." Lin Xi laughed at the number of times I looked at the sea.

"No matter how many times you look at the sea, in terms of quality, some people are about to rot the sea, but what? I didn't get anything too special, and the most I remembered was all kinds of seafood, lifebuoys, and beautiful women with snow-white thighs exposed. "I fought back against Lin Xi.

"To correct, what I remember is not a beautiful woman with snow-white thighs exposed, but a handsome guy with bronzed skin." Lin Xi looked at me with a smile.

"It's all the same superficial!" I took a sip of beer and said calmly.

"You're noble, why don't you let me dip your noble breath tonight, so that I can have a deeper understanding of the sea, okay?" Lin Xi still had a mocking tone.

"I said that I like to feel the energy of the sea alone, and it is a burden to bring you."

In fact, this night, I didn't take Lin Xi to see the sea, and I didn't go myself, I was too drunk...... I don't know why, but I listened to the ebb and flow of the tide and looked at the wide sea in front of me, and I couldn't help but want to drink.

My love for the sea is so heavy that I can never resist the temptation of the sea, it is too beautiful for me.

......

The next morning, I came to the beach alone, ready to watch the sunrise, accompanied by only a box of cigarettes, but I felt very satisfied, I can imagine how comfortable it is to face the gentle sea breeze, listen to the sound of the tides, watch the half-hidden sunrise, and smoke leisurely.

A round of sunrise, finally tentatively from the other side of the sea to show a little edge, the connection between the sea and the sky, was dyed a light red, like a fairyland, I hurriedly took out my mobile phone to record this picture, and then made an MMS, sent to Angel on the other side of the ocean, I have become accustomed to sharing my favorite things with her.

I thought that Angel was resting at this time and would not be able to see the MMS until in the morning, but I didn't want to wait a moment before she replied to my message: "Are you at the beach?" ”

"Well, it's the seaside of Yantai, it's sunrise at this time, I took a picture and shared it with you, by the way, why haven't you rested yet?"

Angel didn't answer my question, but just asked me, "Why did you go to Yantai?" Is it a tour? ”

I thought about it for a while and decided to tell Anqi the truth: "I came here to investigate the market, I have now joined Seaview Coffee, and there is a strong need for expansion of Seaview Coffee. ”

This time Angel took a long time to reply to the message: "Tell me, who are you with now?" ”

"Lin Xi, we came to Yantai together, but I don't think you should have an opinion on this, after so much we should have trusted each other a long time ago."

Anqi didn't reply to the message for a long time, I was nervous, wondering if she would mind if I joined "Seaview Coffee" and minded that I had a lot of opportunities to get along with Lin Xi and Chen Qingyi.

I was about to call, but Angel replied with a message that surprised me and caught me off guard: "Yixi, would you like to come to live in France?" ”

"Why do you suddenly ask that?"

"I want you to come to live in France, in fact, it's quite good to live here."

I had the answer almost without thinking, but I hesitated for a long time before sending Angel a message back: "I'm sorry, I really can't leave the country, I have too many things to achieve." ”

"I know you're going to give me this answer...... You didn't ask you for that, did I? ”

Although it was just a text message, I could still feel Angel's disappointment, but I didn't know why she suddenly asked me to go to France, was it because I joined "Sea View Coffee" and brought her insecurity?

When she was thinking about what message to reply to Angel, she sent another message: "Wait for me in China, I still have some finishing work left....... I went to sleep, bye-bye. ”

"Good dreams, dear."

.......

After the message conversation with Angel, I lit another cigarette for myself, I felt like a jerk, the reason why Angel suddenly asked me to go to France must have been because I joined the "Sea View Coffee" that touched her, and after a lot of experience, I still failed to bring her the security she needed most.

But many times, I am also very passive, for Lin Xi and Chen Qingyi, I also have a responsibility, when "Seaview Coffee" needs me, I must have an unshirkable consciousness, after all, in addition to investing funds, "Seaview Coffee" was almost founded by me in the early days, if it weren't for me, Lin Xi and Chen Qingyi would definitely live a completely different life now.

At this moment, I really want to hold my true heart in front of Anqi and dedicate it to her, I must tell her that whether it is Lin Xi or Chen Qingyi, I am just out of a friend-like responsibility, and I will not have a trace of childlike love with them.

Angel finally asked me to wait for her obediently, not as noisy and noisy as before, how is it not a compromise, I know that this is a change she made for me, because I understand her character, I understand more about how difficult this self-change is for her, but she is still catering to get along with me, this friendship is really rare!

I warned myself again: even if the sky falls apart in the future, I can't live up to Angel's friendship, and I will consider her to be my woman in this life.
