Chapter 936: Chance Encounter (3/4)
On the corner of the shopping street, there is a café with a very chic decoration.
Judging from the decoration style of the café and the small blackboard hanging near the entrance with today's new products written in colored chalk, the owner here is probably a very lifestyle boss, but because it is working time, there are not many people sitting in the shop, only a few.
Pushing open the glass door decorated with wind chimes and paper cranes, Lu Zhou, who walked into the store, soon saw the senior sister sitting by the window, waving to him with her arm raised in surprise.
There is not much change from the appearance I saw just after the New Year, her long black hair is tied back of her head, leaving a few strands of green silk with sideburns to modify the contours of her face, she is wearing a khaki coat and a white turtleneck sweater, and her black boots are above her knees.
And it's not just senpai.
Next to her, Lu Zhou also saw an unexpected acquaintance.
"Long time no see, Academician Lu," the mature woman sitting next to Chen Yushan nodded to Lu Zhou with a smile on her face, and said in a very restrained voice, "My daughter has been taken care of by you." ”
"Ms. Yang is polite," although he was a little surprised to see Ms. Yang here, Lu Zhou's face did not show too much surprise, and after sitting opposite the two, he smiled politely and kindly and said, "Academician is an academic title, it sounds too raw, so let's call me Professor Lu or my name." ”
This acquaintance is none other than the mother of his little apprentice, Ms. Yang Danyun.
I remember that it was seven years ago, and Lu Zhou, who was still budgeting for living expenses and tuition fees, had received a lot of care from her. It wasn't until he went to study at Princeton that Han Mengqi was finally admitted to the ideal university through his own efforts, and he gradually lost contact.
I didn't expect to see it again today.
Looking at Lu Zhou, who became polite, Chen Yushan bent the corners of her mouth and said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, let's stop greetings, it's not the first time we've had coffee together. Would you like something to drink? Ours has been ordered. ”
Lu Zhou: "A cup of mocha is good." ”
Chen Yushan raised her arm and beckoned.
"Waiter, a cup of mocha."
For Lu Zhou, in the absence of instant coffee to choose from, Mocha is a good option that can be a backup option.
The taste of chocolate can mask the bitterness of the coffee itself to a certain extent, but it is not too sweet, and the mellow taste makes it easier to eat than other coffees, in short, it is not easy to step on thunder.
After the coffee was served, Lu Zhou took a sip.
The senior sister who had been watching him curiously on the opposite side finally couldn't hold back the curiosity in her heart and asked.
"Why did you suddenly come to Shanghai?"
"There is something I need to go to the IMCRC side, and I don't want to go on this trip, but people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes," Lu Zhou made a helpless expression, looked at Ms. Yang, and then at Senior Sister, and asked, "What about you?" I didn't even know you were in Shanghai. ”
Rolling her lower lips, Chen Yushan muttered: "Heh, you don't care how I know, you never like my circle of friends." ”
Lu Zhou: "......"
That's what I said.
I can't be busy with so many things every day, how can I have time to like it every day......
Looking at Lu Zhou's expression of speechlessness, Chen Yushan sighed, "Okay, okay, I don't blame you, do you remember the plan I told you last time?" ”
Lu Zhou nodded: "Hmm...... Does it have anything to do with that? ”
"It's a bit related," because her aunt was here, Chen Yushan didn't go into details, but just picked a brief part and said, "In short, in response to the country's call to advocate the orderly entry of capital into the high-tech industry and realize the transformation of the industrial structure, Shanghai has held a pan-Asian high-tech innovation and investment summit, which is quite large, and it is said that not only many large domestic enterprises, but also many enterprises in Southeast Asia have been attracted to it." ”
"I received the invitation letter from the General Association of Zhejiang Entrepreneurs, and I happened to be free during this time, so I came over on behalf of Star Technology."
Pan-Asian High-tech Innovation and Investment Summit?
It sounds like an interesting name, but I don't know what it does.
Lu Zhou then looked at Ms. Yang, who was sitting next to her senior sister, and asked curiously.
"Ms. Yang too?"
Yang Danyun smiled and nodded: "I am an old member of the Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce, so I can be regarded as having received an invitation." Although my business has nothing to do with high-tech, I rarely had such an opportunity, so I came with Yushan. ”
Looking at Lu Zhou, who was sitting opposite, Chen Yushan said with a smile: "How is it?" Would you like to come and see it too? It's quite interesting to have a summit like this. ”
"I'd better forget it," Lu Zhou shook his head with a smile and excused himself, "What's more, I haven't received any invitations, and it's not good to disturb in the past." ”
Hearing Lu Zhou's words, Yang Danyun bent the corners of her mouth and said with a smile: "Professor Lu said with a smile, if you plan to go, where else do you need an invitation." ”
Chen Yushan also nodded as a matter of course: "That's it, not to mention that if you want it, I'll get one for you now." ”
Seeing that the senior sister looked at herself expectantly, Lu Zhou couldn't say anything to excuse herself, so she said with a helpless expression.
"If there is time...... I'll give it a trip. ”
"Then it's settled." A triumphant smile appeared on Chen Yushan's face, "Speaking of which, where is your hotel?" I'll go to you then, let's go together! ”
Looking at her niece who turned her elbow outward, Ms. Yang teased: "You girl, don't you want an aunt if you have friends?" ”
Being teased by her aunt like this, Chen Yushan's expression suddenly became a little embarrassed, and she hurriedly said embarrassedly: "We can go together, I didn't say I wouldn't take you." We'll go over to him together and then we'll go to the venue......"
Bending the corners of her mouth, Ms. Yang smiled and shook her head.
"Okay, you young people should make up a piece by yourself, and I won't be a light bulb for you. What's more, I don't have to accompany you, I can also arrange my own time and take time to meet old friends, you think I want to follow you, it's not your mother who cares. ”
"Auntie, you're so nice!"
"Okay, okay, don't be spoiled with me, be mature, how adult!"
glanced at Chen Yushan, who was grabbing her arm and giggling, with disgust, but judging from the corners of her curved mouth, Ms. Yang still liked her niece very much.
Lu Zhou, who was sitting opposite the two, didn't speak, first, he couldn't find a chance to interject at all, and second, he didn't know what to say.
This guy.
Why do you presumably acquiesce that I will definitely go......
What if I happen to be too busy to get out of the way, and then the pigeon drops?
But......
This pan-Asian high-tech innovation and investment summit sounds quite interesting.
Lu Zhou, who has held a lot of academic conferences, is also curious about what the summit of the capital community looks like.
If he doesn't need to go on stage or worry about it, he still has some interest in going to see it.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhou made a decision in his heart.
If you're not busy, you'd better check it out for yourself......
Just as Chen Yushan was excitedly talking to him about what this pan-Asian high-tech innovation and investment summit was and what should not be missed at the meeting, far away in North America on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, a bright silver flight was landing at the airport in New York City in the bright morning light.
Walking towards the car waiting for pick-up outside the airport, Xiao Tong, carrying a suitcase, was striding towards the place where her brother used to work and study......
