Tenderness (2)

"Hmm," Mu Qingcheng replied softly, with a hint of sweetness in his heart. He had been thinking about it, indicating that he cared about her and her family.

"I'm going to talk to your curator about things, see you on the weekend." He lowered his head and kissed her, then turned and walked out.

Mu Qingcheng saw him off, and his thoughts drifted out with him, and it took a long time to wake up, sigh a little lost, and start working.

Before getting off work that day, Mu Qingcheng got the news from Gu Hengyu that surprised her, Chen Yanjin's company actually defeated several large enterprises with extraordinary strength and won the bid in one fell swoop. Gu Hengyu said that Chen Biting Jin spent a lot of money to dig up a lot of top talents in the industry, and since last year, they have shown a lot of system functions and past successful cases have deeply moved several review experts, and they have given a consistent high score.

Mu Qingcheng was secretly surprised, although this Chen Yanjin has no culture, he still has a set of skills in employing people. She and Gu Hengyu walked side by side to the door, and saw Chen Yanjin standing in the corridor outside, with his hands in his trouser pockets and a cigarette in his mouth.

"Xiaoqing, I'll wait for you here." Chen Yanjin spit out the cigarette in his mouth, stepped on the spark with his foot, and looked vivid, "I didn't lie to you, our company really won and invited you to participate in tonight's celebration dinner." ”

"I'm sorry I have something to do tonight." Mu Qingcheng immediately refused.

"I've been waiting for you for so long, give me some face." Chen Biting Jin said that he actually came to pull Mu Qingcheng's hand, Mu Qingcheng dodged away, and he chased after him again. Gu Hengyu stepped forward and stopped in front of Chen Yanjin. "Mr. Chen, please pay attention to your own image. Littering is a very uncivilized behavior, and it is even more hooliganism to do things to girls. If you are such an unscrupulous person, we need to reconsider working with you. ”

Chen Biting Jin smirked, bent down to pick up the cigarette butt on the ground, and threw it into the trash. "Director Gu, you misunderstood, I just wanted to invite her to a meal."

"Please eat, do you need to hold hands?" Gu Hengyu made a straight face, "She has already agreed to my invitation tonight, and it is impossible to eat with you, so you can go." ”

"I'm not just inviting her alone, tonight is our celebration dinner, and it would be a great honor for Director Gu to come along." Chen Yanjin said flatteringly.

Gu Hengyu still didn't give him a good face. "I just won the bid, I was invited to the celebration dinner, I don't know, I thought there was something between me and you, now the rules for public officials are very strict, and if you are not careful, you will make mistakes, don't hurt me."

Chen Yanjin was choked up and had nothing to say, so he had to hide his embarrassment with a dry smile. "Since that's the case, I can't force it, so I can only have the opportunity to invite it again in the future."

After Chen Biting Jin left, Gu Hengyu regained his smile. "Do you have an appointment tonight?"

"I'm going to the community library to clean up and organize my books." Previously, because of Yang Xirou's injury, Mu Qingcheng was unable to perform his duties as a volunteer curator for a long time. Now that Yang Xirou has recovered from her injuries and been discharged from the hospital, she can often find time to go to the library again.

"There's no rush to clean up, dinner always has to be eaten first." Gu Hengyu invited earnestly, "After the 'Spend Time' café changed hands, I have been looking forward to your visit, I don't know if there is such an honor tonight." In return, I'll take you to the library and help clean up after you've had dinner. ”

Mu Qingcheng smiled heartily. "It's my honor to say the opposite. There is no reason for you to invite you to eat and help with cleaning. ”

Gu Hengyu gave her a look. "Then please, Miss Mu."

Mu Qingcheng pursed his lips and smiled, opened his umbrella, and walked into the rain and fog with him.

"Spend time" Cafe is the same as before, Shan Xiang is busy at the bar, if it weren't for two more clerks, Mu Qingcheng would even have an illusion that Ale and his wife are just temporarily away for the time being, and Shan Xiang will help look after the store.

Shan Xiang saw that Gu Hengyu and Mu Qingcheng were coming, and she couldn't even take care of the work at hand, and after explaining it to another clerk, she took off her apron and ran over.

"Cousin, you didn't say anything when you came over." Shan Xiangjiao said.

"I didn't plan to come, but I happened to meet Qingcheng, so I brought her over." Gu Hengyu instructed, "You go and brew each of the three good teas I treasure, and I will invite Qingcheng to taste the tea." ”

"My cousin treats you like no other." Shan Xiang sighed at Mu Qingcheng, "He is reluctant to drink the good tea he treasures, and said that he would keep it for the most distinguished guests." It seems that you are the most honored guest in her mind. ”

Gu Hengyu smiled slightly. "Needless to say, Qingcheng has always been my goddess. Don't go get it yet, don't bother. ”

Shan Xiang turned around and went. Gu Hengyu found the innermost position by the window, and when they came together last time, they also sat in the same position, where it was very quiet, and they could see the scenery outside the window, and at this time, it was drizzling outside the window, and the mood was the best. Mu Qingcheng looked out the window, there were wires hanging under the eaves of the old house opposite, and a string of water droplets hung on the wires, crystal clear and transparent, like a pearl necklace. Next to it stood a phoenix tree, its branches fluttering in the wind, and water droplets sliding from its leaves monotonously and continuously. Not far away, there was a street lamp, indifferently radiating a dim light in the drizzle. The rainy night was the most sultry, and her mind was a little trance-like.

"On a rainy night like this, people with different moods have very different feelings." Gu Hengyu's voice sounded.

She turned her gaze back, and her eyes were hazy.

"Couples listen to the rain together, and the sound is like a whisper under an umbrella." Gu Hengyu looked at her intently, "But to people who can't get love, the voice is a wet sigh." ”

There was a trace of confusion in Mu Qingcheng's eyes, he couldn't get love, was he going to take the opportunity to find out his love for her?

Fortunately, Shan Xiang came with the three brewed teas, and also brought a plate of refreshments, interrupting the topic that had just been provoked.

"It's not good to drink tea on an empty stomach, you have to serve it with some snacks, this is a freshly baked puff pastry biscuit, it tastes great, try it." Shan Xiang was about to turn around with the empty plate, but paused again, "You haven't ordered yet." ”

"I almost forgot, thanks for the reminder." Gu Hengyu picked up the menu on the table, "But you also forgot one thing, you only brought tea, not a tea set." ”

Shan Xiang let out an "oops". "I've become forgetful, you can order food first, and I'll bring the tea set as soon as it's ready."

Gu Hengyu asked Mu Qingcheng's opinion, and Mu Qingcheng smiled and said, just recommend it by the boss. In the end, Gu Hengyu decided to order a special package for two.

After that, Shan Xiang placed the tea set and the electric kettle set, and sat down next to Mu Qingcheng. "I also want to touch Miss Mu's light and taste the best tea, cousin doesn't mind, right?"

"Even if you mind, it's hard to say it directly." A subtle smile appeared on Gu Hengyu's lips, "If I ignore your existence, don't mind." ”

Shan Xiang pursed her lips and remained silent.

Gu Hengyu began to make tea himself, Mu Qingcheng looked at him, he was wearing a white shirt and a short gray knit sweater today. The appearance is graceful, but every move exudes restraint and stability, making people feel comfortable and tranquil, and they are appreciated and praised from the heart. Gu Hengyu raised his head suddenly, Mu Qingcheng didn't have time to retract his gaze, and smiled at him a little embarrassedly and said, "Your posture of making tea is very professional." ”

A foggy look of dizziness immediately passed through his eyes.

Mu Qingcheng lowered his gaze, but Gu Hengyu stared at her stunned for a while. Shan Xiang coughed deliberately, and he came back to his senses and continued the movements at hand.

"My cousin is a tea lover, he is used to having a cup of tea in the morning and afternoon, and he has a deep understanding of tea culture for many years." Shan Xiang praised Gu Hengyu, "Men who love tea always have a special meaning, can withstand wind and rain, enjoy stability, wisdom and elegance." ”

Mu Qingcheng was slightly stunned, she remembered Cheng Yijie, he seemed to be a tea lover, that night in the room of the love hotel, he sat by the window in a white gauze nightgown, looking sideways at the hazy and gorgeous scenery outside the window, while elegantly sipping Longjing tea. Her face and heart beat every time she thought of that scene. So, he can also withstand the wind and rain, enjoy stability, wisdom and elegance?

Gu Hengyu kept pouring tea for Mu Qingcheng and Shan Xiang, and after the three brews of tea were brewed separately, he asked Mu Qingcheng to taste it.

"I like to drink tea, but I don't know much about tea." Mu Qingcheng said modestly. In fact, her uncle Yang Ru is also a tea lover, she has been exposed to it since she was a child, and she has also been deeply affected, "I can only drink it, the first brew is Yunnan red, the second brew is cinnamon, and the third brew is Pu'er." Relatively speaking, I like Yunnan red the most, the aroma is elegant and long-lasting, and the charm is endless. The energy is extremely strong, but not strong, durable, soft in force, leading the heat to radiate from the inside out, the body is relaxed, and the spirit enters a high level of consciousness, which is a top-level classic black tea. ”

"I also said that you don't know much about tea, and you know it well. I think that in the hearts of men who really understand tea, there is a brown woman with slender hands. The best order of tea tasting should be, the first tea to take the best Yunnan red, such as the peerless beauty in the prime of life; The second tea is selected with high-quality cinnamon, such as a mature woman who knows wisdom and intellect; The third tea is aged Pu'er, which seems to appreciate the graceful aging of famous ladies. After three rounds of tea in this way, the soul is full of food and beauty. Gu Hengyu took over the conversation, "Su Shi's poem 'has never been a good tea like a beautiful woman', that's it. Qingcheng, you belong to the first tea, the best Yunnan red, the peerless beauty in the prime. Even if you age gracefully in the future, you will still be like an aged Pu'er, and it will be fragrant for a long time. ”

"I can't afford such a high evaluation." Gu Hengyu's praise would only make Mu Qingcheng feel embarrassed and at a loss.

"Evaluate my taste, too." Shan Xiang didn't want to be ignored, and interjected, "I like to drink the kind of tea with grapefruit or cinnamon, what kind of tea is that kind of woman?" ”
