There is already him
"Welcome to the next time." Chu Qionglin stood in front of the door and said with a smile to the lady who had just bought a pot of fortune trees. The lady smiled and nodded, got into the car at the door, and left.
"It's time, we've sent off the last guest, and it's time to get off work." Chu Zuo stretched and said.
"Pack up and go to dinner." Li Ming counted today's business results, put away his satchel, and said to everyone.
"Okay." Chu Zuo and Chu Qionglin said in unison, and Chu Heng looked at the two and smiled.
"How did you two get here?" Chu Qionglin asked Chu Zuo.
"Cousin came by car, Sister Qionglin, you came in Xiaohong, right? Hey, let's all take Comrade Chu Heng's car today, just four people and drive two cars to eat, it's too extravagant. Chu Zuo looked at Li Ming with inquiring eyes, and then at Chu Qionglin, the two nodded, and the four of them left the flower shop together.
"Wait here, I'll drive over." Chu Heng said to the three of them.
"Where are we going to eat?" Chu Zuo asked.
"I'll think about it...... Ay! Let's go to Henghe Street to eat, Ah Ming and I went back to a restaurant in the Western Regions over there, and it feels good. Chu Qionglin proposed, and Li Ming nodded.
"That's okay, wait for my cousin to come and ask him if he agrees." Chu Zuodao.
After a while, a black SUV stopped at the door of the flower shop, rolled down the window, and Chu Heng sat in the driver's seat and motioned for everyone to get into the car.
"Hey, Sister Qionglin, sit in the passenger seat, Sister Li Ming and I will be the back." Without waiting for Chu Qionglin to reply, Chu Zuo pulled Li Ming and quickly sat in the back seat of the car. Chu Qionglin rolled her eyes and opened the door of the passenger seat.
"Brother, how about going to the Western Regions restaurant on Henghe Street to eat?" Chu Zuo asked.
"Yes, I haven't eaten food in the Western Regions for a long time, and I don't know if it's authentic." Chu Heng said and drove to Henghe Street.
After more than ten minutes, Chu Heng parked his car in the parking lot on Henghe Street. The four of them got out of the car and went towards the "Western Regions Style".
"Hey, it's quite a row." Western Style'. Chu Zuo said with some amazement in front of the restaurant. When the four of them entered the store, several waiters dressed up in the Western Regions said in unison, "Welcome." ”
There are still dance performances with Western Regions characteristics in the center of the restaurant, but it is different from the last time Chu Qionglin and Li Ming came.
The four of them sat down, the waiter put the menu on the table, and Chu Qionglin looked at it.
"Why don't you eat this? One serving for four people is enough. Chu Qionglin said, pointing to a picture on the menu.
"This ...... It's pepper chicken, the picture doesn't look very spicy, but it feels very spicy when you hear the name. Chu Zuo looked over with Chu Qionglin's pointing.
(Pepper Sesame Chicken: Xinjiang Minzong cuisine, it aptly reflects the character of Xinjiang ethnic people, wild, enthusiastic, bold, and contains the founder's understanding and wisdom of food.) Xinjiang pepper sesame chicken is a delicious dish, with ecological chicken as raw materials, the selection of dozens of high-quality precious Chinese medicine secret made, eat numb but not woody, spicy but not on the fire, the skin is crisp and tender, the meat tendon is overflowing, the fragrance is overflowing, the aftertaste is long, and the taste of mixed noodles is excellent. The above information comes from Baidu Encyclopedia. )
"Try?" Chu Qionglin asked everyone.
None of them objected.
"Waiter, here's this." Chu Qionglin handed the menu to the waiter.
"How many are you going to be mildly spicy, medium spicy, or spicy?" The waiter asked politely.
"Is this still a point? That...... Medium-spicy? What do you think? Chu Qionglin looked at the three of them with questioning eyes, and the three of them nodded.
"Sister Qiong Lin must have a treat for this meal, although today is the opening of Sister Li Ming's shop, but today Sister Qiong Lin took advantage of my cousin today, and she can't prostitute for nothing." Chu Zuo joked with a smile.
"Can you please stop mentioning this. It's like I'm a psychopath. Chu Qionglin rolled her eyes at Chu Zuo.
Everyone laughed.
Li Ming looked at the exotic girls dancing in the center of the restaurant, and couldn't help but think of Shi Chuan. At this moment, he is in the Western Regions, I don't know if he has seen the dance of the girls in the Western Regions today, maybe Tuya will dance to him, maybe he will often dance to him......
Chu Qionglin patted Li Ming's arm before pulling Li Ming's thoughts back.
"Serve." Chu Qionglin pointed to the table. Chicken is already crumbled, with onions, green peppers, etc., on the plate.
Chu Zuo couldn't help but put a piece in his bowl.
"I'll eat first as a respect." After saying that, Chu Zuo put the chicken on his plate into his mouth.
The three of them looked at him, and Chu Zuo took two bites before stopping, as if time had stood still for three seconds.
"Oh my God...... It doesn't look spicy, it's really spicy, and it's numb, but it tastes really good. Chu Zuo chewed the chicken in his mouth and said vaguely.
The remaining three smiled and began to eat.
"My goal is to eat all the meals in this store this summer, are there any together?" Chu Zuo raised his head and asked everyone while eating.
Chu Heng smiled and said, "Do you go to the flower shop to work to earn money?" But there is one thing to say, this store is very authentic. ”
The four of them finished the meal happily, but no one knew what kind of mood people other than themselves were in sitting here to eat......
Western regions.
"Ding-dong."
Shi Chuan picked up his phone, and it was a text message from Tuya.
"Cleaned up?"
Shi Chuan didn't reply to the message and threw his phone aside.
Looking at the silk scarf in his hand, Shi Chuan couldn't help but think of Li Ming's appearance in his mind, would Li Ming be happy and smile when he saw this silk scarf......
Retracting his thoughts, Shi Chuan folded the silk scarf and put it in the box. Picked up the suit jacket on the sofa and walked out of the hotel. After getting into the car, the driver started the car and went straight to the airport.
Half an hour later......
"Would you feel a sense of accomplishment if I waited for you so long?" Tuya took off her sunglasses and said to Shi Chuan with some dissatisfaction.
"You made me feel the need to arrive early." Shi Chuan glanced at Tuya and went directly past her to the security checkpoint.
After the security check, Shi Chuan took out his mobile phone and edited a message to send to Li Ming.
"I'm boarding the plane right away, I can see you tomorrow."
Tuya glanced at Shi Chuan's message from the side and raised her eyebrows.
"She already knows you're engaged, so you're going to make her think about it too much."
Shi Chuan glared at Tuya and did not reply.
After boarding the plane, Shi Chuan sat by the window, looking at the scenery outside the window, his eyes full of melancholy.
She already knew about my engagement, and if it weren't for all of this, I'd have told her the truth...... If I had insisted on choosing to inherit my grandfather's mantle, I probably wouldn't have had these troublesome things. Maybe I'm taking a liking to her? But obviously she hadn't seen her a few times, and she was so cold to herself......
What's wrong with me?
Thinking about it to no avail, Shi Chuan rubbed his temples and closed his eyes to pretend to sleep.
"Actually, you can tell her that she doesn't look like a talker." Tuya's cold voice came.
Shi Chuan frowned.
"The walls have ears." After speaking, he stopped paying attention to Tuya.
By the time the plane landed at the airport in the island city, the sky in the island city had already begun to darken. Shi Chuan looked at his watch, there was still more than an hour before Li Ming usually got off work, and after some thought, he sent Tuya to the hotel, and he took a taxi to the Island City Cultural Street.
After reporting the address, Shi Chuan did not forget to remind the driver to hurry up.
When he arrived at Wenhua Street, Shi Chuan walked quickly to Li Ming's flower shop, and saw that the lights of the flower shop were still on, and Shi Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.
When I entered the door, I didn't see Li Ming's figure, only a slightly wealthy middle-aged woman sitting at the cash register.
"Do you buy flowers?" The middle-aged woman asked when she saw Shi Chuan enter the door.
"Oh...... Auntie, is this store transferred? The previous boss ......," Shi Chuan asked.
"Oh, you said Ah Ming, she has opened a branch on the commercial street in the past two days, and it will be busier over there, do you have anything to do with her?" The middle-aged woman is Chu Qionglin's mother.
"That...... Can Auntie help me pass this on to her? Shi Chuan said and handed the box containing the silk scarf in his hand to the mother-in-law.
"Okay, you put it here, I'll give it to her tomorrow." The mother took the box.
"Thank you, Auntie." Shi Chuan nodded, and left the flower shop after speaking. I took a taxi on the side of the road, and after reporting the address, the taxi set off towards the commercial street of the island city.
When he arrived at the commercial street, Shi Chuan looked at the sign of the store, and finally when he was halfway through, he vaguely saw the sign of "Dawn Flower Shop".
Shi Chuan got closer, and saw that the lights in the store were off, and then he saw Li Ming coming out of the flower shop, and Chu Zuo came out with him. The two of them didn't know what to say, and they were smiling.
This scene fell in Shi Chuan's eyes, and he couldn't help but suffocate in his heart, an indescribable feeling slowly rose from the bottom of his heart, and Shi Chuan clenched his fists.
"Ah Ming......" Shi Chuan muttered as he looked at the backs of the two leaving, and turned around and left after speaking.
Maybe it's just their own self-inflicted passions, they may really have nothing before. Li Ming's excitement when she first met him, her caution when they were in the café, and the faint sadness she showed when she saw Tuya, may have all been imagined by herself......
Shi Chuan did not go back to the apartment, but went to the edge of the Yokogawa. There, did he come a lot when he was in high school? Have you ever been here with Li Ming, even if it's a chance encounter......
