I answered Anlan's phone and asked her what was the matter?

She is a very decisive person, and she doesn't beat around the bush, and goes straight to the point: "Are you free at night?" I'll treat you to dinner! How about hot pot? ”

I was stunned for a moment before replying, "Didn't you say you weren't in the mood?" ”

"I'm just not in the mood so I want to drink, can you drink?"

"I'm afraid you won't be able to drink me." I said with a smile.

"Okay, then it's decided, meet at seven o'clock in the evening on the street of Linjiangmen Night Market."

I answered and hung up, I didn't expect her to be so familiar with these old night cities.

That's right, in the city of Chongqing, many people know that hot pot is famous far and wide, and there are many Internet celebrity hot pot restaurants, but to be honest, it's hard to eat.

It is often the kind of inconspicuous fly restaurant that is the most authentic old Chongqing hot pot.

An hour later, I arrived at the Linjiangmen Night Market, and when I called Anlan, she told me she would be there soon.

So I bought the night market street and waited at the door, although it was not completely dark at this time, the neon lights were already lit up in the night market street, which was very market-like.

After smoking a cigarette, I saw the president of Anlan's Maserati driving over, she lowered the window and asked me, "Where is the parking space around here?" ”

I was quite familiar with the area, so I got into her car and told her how to get there, and the parking lot was free.

An Lan asked me curiously, why am I so familiar?

I smiled and said, "You forgot that I was a food delivery before?" These places have long been drilled and can be found with your eyes closed. ”

An Lan gave me a blank look and said that I was poor.

She looks good tonight, and she is still dressed during the day, but her hair is down, and she looks even more charming.

After parking the car, we walked together into the night market street, and along the way, Anlan attracted the attention of many passers-by, and she seemed to have long been accustomed to it.

She asked me again, "Do you know which hot pot is delicious here?" ”

I shook my head and said I didn't know I hadn't been here yet, so I asked her for her opinion.

She didn't even come to eat it, but she heard that this is the authentic Chongqing hot pot.

So I said to her, "So be it! Since we don't know where to go, let's play a game. ”

"What game?" She stopped and looked at me quizzically.

"What's your lucky number?"

An Lan's eyebrows frowned slightly: "What a lucky number, I don't have it." ”

"Then you can just say a number."

"Six!" She thought for a moment and said.

I nodded and said, "Okay, then let's move forward, and from here we will count the five hot pot restaurants, and we will be in the sixth." ”

"Is it so sloppy?"

"Don't you think it's fun?"

She didn't answer me, but she counted them carefully.

We didn't stop until the sixth hot pot restaurant and went in without thinking.

The waiter greeted us warmly and asked how many of us were, pouting when we said that there were two of us, as if a little upset, but still carried us to the seats.

Anlan couldn't eat too spicy, so we just had a slight spicy one, and then ordered food and beer.

An Lan looked out the window, the scenery here is very good, the window looks out of the Yangtze River, and the famous Qianguomen Bridge.

The night scene of Chongqing is known as Little Shanghai, which is not a joke, it is incredibly beautiful.

The neon lights outside the window shone in and shone on An Lan's face, making her look even more charming.

It's been a long time since I've been so moved by a person that I can even feel my own heartbeat distinctly.

After the food was served, we ate and drank and chatted, and I asked her, "Listen to your accent, you shouldn't be from Chongqing, right?" ”

An Lan gave me a very strange look and replied, "Why do you think I'm not from Chongqing?" ”

"Your Mandarin is so standard, it's not like a local."

An Lan smiled faintly again and said, "I'm from Chongqing, but I grew up abroad since I was a child, and I haven't been back for long." ”

"Returnees?"

"Sort of!"

As she spoke, she raised her hand and brushed the hair from her ear, then lowered her head to eat the scalding dish.

I was really in a trance when I saw her so ladylike, because all around me, including my wife, had that kind of grinning personality, which is also the standard for Chongqing girls.

But what An Lan showed was the gentle and elegant feeling of the Jiangnan water town, and it was not pretentious.

After taking a bite of the dish, she looked up at me again and said, "I'm sorry for today's incident!" ”

I smiled and said, "It's okay, I got the money anyway." ”

"I know it's not about money, it's about trying to get you back on your feet in the industry through this one, right?"

She was right, and I didn't refute it, nodded, poured the wine and drank alone.

She suddenly said to me again: "There will be opportunities in the future, you have to persevere, I think you are a very talented person." ”

I smiled miserably and said, "I'm thirty years old, I've gone bankrupt in the company, and I've met my wife cheating, what do you think I have the courage to persevere?" ”

"This is even more necessary! If you give up now, you're a complete loser! ”

I smiled and didn't say anything more, and drank another glass of wine, and she accompanied me for a drink.

Then he asked me, "You haven't divorced your wife yet, have you?" ”

"No, I don't have enough evidence to prove that she cheated now, I must catch that adulterer, otherwise I can't get over it in my heart."

An Lan is a woman who knows the times very well, and she turned to me and said, "Don't talk about this! lest you be in a bad mood. ”

I smiled and said it was okay, and I saw it all.

Then she talked about the house in my hometown and said to me, "Haven't you always wanted to know how I planned your house?" ”

"Well, do you have any other uses?"

An Lan shook his head and said, "Actually, no, I know you're also hesitant to demolish or not, right?" ”

I was amazed at how this woman knew what was going on in my heart.

Seeing my surprised expression, An Lan said again: "You don't need to be surprised, I can see it, so I thought of a way to get the best of both worlds." ”

"What's the solution?" I asked, curious and expectant.

"The development plan of your village this time is actually to build a beautiful village, and it is not only our Olam International that has won the bid, but also other enterprises, and we are only responsible for the original residential planning and future tourism planning."

I nodded and asked her, "Then how are you going to plan my old house?" ”

"Do you have an idea for making it into an inn?"

"Inn?!" I was stunned, and then smiled again, "We don't have any tourism projects in that place, is there any business for this?" ”

"Not having it now does not mean that it will not be in the future. The government has been vigorously promoting, and your position is a simple village...... In half a year, your village will change dramatically. ”

I don't know why, I just believe An Lan's words, and I feel like I believe everything she says.

So he asked her again: "Then can't you get the demolition money?" ”

"Yes! If you think about it, in fact, it still has to be demolished, but it has developed into an inn from the original foundation. ”

An Lan paused after speaking, as if he was afraid that I didn't understand, and added: "To put it simply, the house still has to be included in the demolition, but you can use the demolition money to invest, so that you can keep your hometown house?" ”
