Chapter 76 (5.1) Grafting, above
Gold and Silver Castle, Starry Sky Restaurant.
Luo Guxing never thought that he would come to this kind of place to kill time for an inconsequential woman.
In Luo Guxing's dictionary, "romantic" is the abbreviation of "wasting time and being free". There are only a handful of women in the world who are as good at communicating as Bai Shuang, and the other women are all pampered and afraid of the heavy.
It's easy to be with Bai Shuang, you don't have to deliberately figure out the girl's thoughts, just say anything straightforwardly. is not like Wu Qiong's new goddaughter, who is hypocritical and willful, unreasonable, and full of the temper of the eldest lady!
It's a pity, it's a pity, Luo Guxing is reluctant, and he still has to spend a huge amount of money to invite the Camellia Girl to the Starry Sky Restaurant for dinner. Who told him to take over Whale Fall City soon, and now he has no connections on this side of the earth.
Wu Qiong has already helped him pull several contacts, the most important of which is He Shouchen, the president of the Federal University. If you want to win over He Shouchen, the top priority is to please He Shouchen's niece Chen Camellia who was placed in Whale Fall City.
This aunt is not easy to deal with, every time she sees Luo Guxing, she either has nothing to do, or she is messing around.
If it weren't for Bai Shuang's bitter words all the way today, Luo Guxing would not have pulled down his son and invited the Camellia Girl to such a luxurious place to consume.
"Mr. Luo." The waiter respectfully handed over a menu, "This is the dish you made a reservation before, please look at it again, do you need to make changes?" ”
"No, just serve the food as scheduled." Luo Guxing immediately settled the matter.
The dish was ordered by Bai Shuang for him, and Bai Shuang knew the Camellia Girl and the taste of the aunt better than him. And Luo Guxing is a straight-line thinking, he can go all the way to the black road, he will never look back and think twice.
Glancing at the time, it was ten minutes later than the agreed time, and the Camellia Girl had not yet arrived.
It is said that girls are generally late in order to give men enough time to adjust their mentality.
But Luo Guxing didn't want to adjust his mentality, he just wanted to finish eating and go back quickly. Today, in order to discuss how to "bear the guilt" for the Camellia girl, Bai Shuang talked back and forth for a long time. As a result, the topic that Luo Guxing had thought of before was delayed, and he still didn't have a chance to discuss the two of them with Bai Shuang.
After another five minutes, Luo Guxing finally saw the Camellia Girl standing in the foyer in all his anxiety.
Today Camellia did not wear her trademark maid outfit, but a dignified evening dress.
Luo Guxing raised his eyebrows, if it was really a person who relied on clothes and horses and saddles, he didn't expect this woman to look good when she dressed up.
"I'm sorry." Camellia Girl walked to the table and took the initiative to admit her mistake, "It's 14 minutes and 46 seconds late." ”
Luo Guxing was suddenly choked speechless, but he didn't expect this woman to have a sense of time in her heart. Not only does she remember the time, but she can also be accurate to the second. "It's okay, I just used this time to check the menu."
The Camellia Girl was also bitter, she didn't want to sit and eat with a perverted madman with criminal tendencies. If she hadn't been upside down by her uncle's earnest words all night, she wouldn't have sat at the same table as Luo Guxing to eat.
Luo Guxing stiffly invited the Camellia Girl to take a seat, and then recited the words that Bai Shuang taught him in the same stiff tone: "I don't know what you like to eat, so I just ordered a few dishes." If the dish is not to your taste, you must let me know and I will ask the waiter to change the dish immediately. ”
La Traviata barely smiled: "I'm not so picky when I eat, and I like to try dishes that I haven't eaten." Thank you for inviting me to such a luxurious restaurant, it really broke your bank. ”
Luo Guxing couldn't find any topic to continue, so he simply closed his mouth and didn't speak again. Fortunately, the waiter served the food very quickly, and as soon as the Camellia Girl was seated, the appetizer soup was served in time.
The two drank the soup silently, and the atmosphere on the table was as cold as an Antarctic snowfield.
After that, I changed two appetizers, and it wasn't until the main course came up that the Camellia Girl couldn't help but ask: "They all said that you built a space station on Jupiter before, is Jupiter fun?" ”
"It's not fun." Luo Guxing said bluntly, "When I first went, it was a barren place. No fresh water, no food, nothing. Once supplies stop on this side of the planet, we will starve to death at any moment. ”
When the Camellia heard this, she frowned and said, "But there has been a wave of scientists before you. I've heard that it was that group of scientists who spent a decade building the first Jupiter space station, and that there was already a space station when you went there. ”
Speaking of this topic, Luo Guxing's eyes suddenly became gloomy: "Those predecessors used their lives to open up new routes for all mankind, and they are great, greater than any heroes in the history books. ”
La Traviata was intrigued by the story: "I've heard that many of the first scientists to build Jupiter's space station died on Jupiter. When you go to Jupiter, are there any people alive there? ”
"Yes." Luo Guxing said, "But there are not many. There was a big accident before, and many scientists died in that accident. Most of those who survived were also withdrawn to Earth. When we got to Jupiter, there were only ten people left there waiting for us to hand over. ”
The Camellia Girl nodded thoughtfully, she pursed her lips, and said in a very mysterious tone: "I have heard a story from my uncle before, and there are no more than ten people who still know about it. ”
"What's the story?" Luo Guxing's interest was also aroused.
The Camellia girl looked left and right to make sure that no one nearby was eavesdropping on them, so she lowered her voice and said, "Actually, Miss is the youngest daughter of the old city lord Bai, and the old city lord Bai used to have an eldest daughter. ”
"Bai Shuang still has a sister?" Luo Guxing felt that he was afraid that he had heard it wrong.
"Uh-huh!" The Camellia Girl nodded affirmatively: "The eldest daughter of the old city lord is a very powerful scientist, and she was one of the first scientists to go to Jupiter to build a space station. As a result, an accident occurred, and the eldest daughter and son-in-law of the old city lord Bai were both killed in that accident. ”
"Really?" Luo Guxing's back was cold, and all kinds of fragmented memories from the past were rearranged and combined in his mind.
"I don't lie to you!" "I also heard that the old city lord was angry because of this incident. At that time, the old city lord Bai was already old, and his health was not good. After receiving the news of the funeral of his eldest daughter and son-in-law, he was angry and died within a few days. ”
"I see." Luo Guxing's thoughts gradually returned to seventeen years ago.
At that time, Bai Shuang was sent to Jupiter to work as an overseer, and she took the initiative to show a handwritten letter written by the old city lord Bai before his death. It was the old city lord Bai who personally ordered Bai Shuang to go to Jupiter to be an overseer.
Everyone wondered why the old city lord Bai made such a strange decision before his death, whose daughter was not the treasure of his parents, but the old city lord Bai sent his daughter to that barren land to suffer.
It turned out that the old city lord of Bai had regrets in Jupiter. So he sent his youngest daughter to Jupiter to fill in the regrets left by his eldest daughter.
