57. Han Lexiang Bookstore
The beautiful woman went to the kitchen, and I was so happy that I only sang "Turn Over the Serf and Sing".
Jiang Shuiyue was wearing an apron and stir-frying in the home clothes I bought for her from Korea, and asked me why I kept singing this song these days, and I smiled and said that this song is good. She freed up her hand and twisted me and said, "Little girl, don't think I don't know what you're thinking?" ”
I said naughtily: "I, I'm thinking about cooking a good dish, and then let someone can't leave me, love me......" Jiang Shuiyue of course knew that I was squeezing her, and before I finished speaking, she waved a spoon and chased after me, scaring me to run around.
While we were fighting, the doorbell rang and I shouted, "Mr. Yao is here." ”
This trick worked very well, Jiang Shuiyue immediately left me and ran to the door, lifted the earpiece, and asked delicately, "May I ask who one?" ”
Looking at her demeanor, who else will it be besides Yao Zengzhe? I sighed in my heart, poor party cold night, repeatedly defeated, does he still believe in love? Will he still be single-minded in his search for his true love?
Jiang Shuiyue waited to open the door for Yao Zengzhe, and I took the spoon in her hand and hurriedly ran to the kitchen to stir-fry.
I was busy in the kitchen, and the two of us were intimate in the living room, and occasionally I could hear a half-sentence conversation.
“…… I still like the house over there with Golden Rose...... "This is Jiang Shuiyue's words."
"I can't even afford the down payment over there, so let's let me go, and we'll go there to buy it again when I earn money in the future, okay?" Men have no money, and some are unreasonable.
"I didn't let you buy it, I'll pay a part of the ......"
They're talking about buying a house, they're getting married! If you get married, you will consider buying a house together, and you can't go to the Golden Rose Community to buy a villa for the sake of cohabitation, right? I know it's expensive there.
It seems that the party has been completely defeated, so, will he go to their wedding. What does it feel like for a man to open his favorite woman and put on a white wedding dress and marry another man?
Jiang Shuiyue came in with my mobile phone and said, "Xiaoxue, your phone." ”
If in normal times, when I am busy, she will directly answer the phone for me and pass the word for me. This time she didn't pick it up, but sent it to me, and I felt something strange. Sure enough, when I saw the call, it was a cold night from the party.
"Hey, hello."
"Congratulations, Xiaoxue, for a good result in Seoul." His shaky, familiar voice came through the earpiece.
"You...... You know it all? "I was so embarrassed that I blushed, it seemed that the man was really embarrassed, and even he knew about it.
"You have won glory for us Han Lexiang, how can I not know the truth? Got the invitation ticket for the premiere, right? ”
"Mmmm," I nodded hurriedly, "Teacher Cheng has already given it to me." ”
"Okay, I have to come the day after tomorrow?"
I still nodded vigorously, he just said that he would sell me at a valuation, and I guess I would nod without hesitation. "I'll definitely go."
He smiled, "I won't bother you, bye-bye." ”
When I closed the phone, my heart was beating wildly, it was the first time I had heard his voice in months! He's still so resilient that he won't be knocked down by any setbacks......
"Xiaoxue, why does it smell burnt?" Jiang Shuiyue shouted in the living room.
I'm busy stirring vegetables, it's already burnt, the first time, the first time I've made a paste!
……
The grand premiere of "Oriental Dazzling" was held in Haidu Hall. Two days later, there was another premiere in Beijing, and then another in Hong Kong. After the domestic release, several premieres have been prepared in North America and two Asian and one European countries, and finally the global release will be made. So, although the premiere is held today, I am afraid that it will be at least two weeks before I want to see the movie, which really whets people's appetites.
After work in the morning, I ate my own boxed lunch, and then took the bus to Haidutang, and had to reverse the bus in the middle. Because I had plenty of time to arrive at the start of the premiere at 3 p.m., I didn't take a taxi, and although my salary doubled from when I first joined the company, I was still used to holding my purse tight and not spending a penny more than I didn't need.
I got off at the reversing station, the other car hadn't come yet, next to it was Han Lexiang Bookstore, anyway, it was still early, so I entered the bookstore.
Han Lexiang Bookstore operates all kinds of books on the first to sixth floors, and the seventh floor is a coffee shop, where you can take a book below and go to the seventh floor to order a cup of coffee or green tea, and enjoy tea while reading your favorite book, which is quite apologetic. After reading the book, if you don't want to buy it, put it back where it was, and if you buy it, take it to the first floor to check out.
Coffee and tea are not too expensive, and new books are generally not discounted, so many people come to read books but not buy them, so after a long time, many new books will become old books, and then the bookstore will sell them at a discount. I often come here to pick up some of my favorite old books, and the prices are very cheap.
Han Lexiang Bookstore, needless to say, is naturally owned by Han Lexiang Group. So I thought, is it to make money or lose money when the party opens such a bookstore on a cold night? Sometimes in the bookstore, I see some people who do not care for books, throw them away, damage books, or even cut some pages from books and take them away secretly, I am very angry, he provides such a good place for everyone to read books, but these people are so ignorant of retribution, but use such despicable means to satisfy their selfish desires. Does Dang Hanye know about this situation in his bookstore? If he knew, would he still do this?
There are a lot of people in the bookstore, every time I come, although other bookstores in Haidu are often deserted, but Han Lexiang Bookstore has always been a busy city, the coffee shop on the seventh floor is often full, and it is said that the manager has plans to develop the eighth floor into a coffee shop. But many of them are similar to me, just come to read books, and rarely buy them, and even if they do, they buy old books at discount.
Looking at these beautiful books, I often wonder if I had such a bookstore! I don't ask for much profit from books, as long as I have enough food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and then I can soak in my books every day.
Will you often come to his bookstore on cold nights? He must be very happy to see a bookstore as big as himself, I think.
I walked around and saw a few books I liked, but I didn't have time to buy them today. When I took the escalator down to the third floor, I met two arguing young people at the staircase, it turned out that it was for a discounted book, and they said that it was the last one, and both of them said that they saw it first, and no one would give in, so they argued and fought red-faced.
I was just about to turn around and go down the escalator when I heard a man say, "What are you two fighting about?" ”
I looked back and saw an old man, about sixty years old, in good spirits, very strict and kind.
After the two explained the reason, the old man said to the staff next to him: "Go to the new book area to see if there are any new books, take one and give them a discount." ”
That's good, such a cheap thing, why haven't I encountered it? Looking at the old man again, there is a strong cultural atmosphere on his face. Since he can get the staff to sell the new books as old books, he must be in charge here. Manger? He is more like a man of letters, a scholar. The cold night of the party is indeed extraordinary, hiring such a person to be a manager, doing this business, is there any money to be made?
I was just about to leave, and I saw a book on the ground that had been discarded by readers, I picked it up, and sighed a little, it was clear that I was a reader, but I didn't care for other people's books, and threw them around. I sorted through the book, found its rightful place, and put it on. When I turned to leave, I saw the old man looking at me, and I smiled at him.
He also smiled and said very kindly: "Little girl, what books do you like to read?" ”
"Science, the field, beauty, novels, I like to read them. The old gentleman has read a lot of books, right? I replied politely.
"No more, no more, no matter how many books a person reads, it is limited."
I nodded, yes, the sea of books is endless, life is short, after all, we can still read a small part.
"The little girl often comes here if she likes to read, and we don't need money to read here."
"Thank you, sir, I come often." Yes, how can you not visit such a cheap place often?
He smiled and paced away.
I also hurriedly went downstairs to take the car, while guessing the relationship between the old gentleman and the party cold night.
