Chapter 49: A Gift
When I saw that Lao Wei had specially asked me about this, I handed my phone to Qin Weilan, who was sitting opposite me, to check what Lao Wei said to me.
"Wei Lan, in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, the new tavern will hold an opening event, Lao Wei asked me to ask you, do you have time to participate together?"
Qin Weilan finished reading the chat history on my phone, the expression on her face gradually became a little embarrassed, and she said apologetically.
"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult, and I can only stay until the morning after tomorrow at most, and it's very likely that I will go back to Europe tomorrow."
"Okay." I regretfully took back my phone, gave her a smile, and said, "Then I'll take you with me when you come back next time." ”
After eating the hot pot, Qin Weilan and I walked side by side on the street, and the viewing trees on the sidewalk were hung with small lanterns, which looked like we were preparing for the Spring Festival in advance, but it was too early.
When I withdrew my gaze looking at the lanterns on the tree, I realized that Qin Weilan was also looking at the lanterns on the tree just now, just like me.
I noticed that she wasn't wearing much of her clothes today, and it was already nighttime, and it was a little cool.
Then I remembered that the last time she left me the night before she parted with me, I washed it and kept it at home, and she came back too suddenly, otherwise I could have returned it to her tonight.
I hesitated for a moment, slowed down, looked at Qin Weilan and asked softly, "Are you cold?" ”
"Well, a little." Just when a cold wind blew, Qin Weilan subconsciously wrapped her arms around her with both hands, "Winter in Kyoto City, I didn't expect it to be so cold. ”
I was silent for a moment, then took off my coat and draped it over her shoulders.
"You wore too little, last time you gave me a scarf, this time I gave you my own coat."
Qin Weilan didn't refuse my kindness, she lowered her head slightly, and the light was dim, seeing her face a little moved.
I touched my nose and explained, "Well, I'm mainly afraid that you will catch a cold, after all, you will have to fly back to Europe at that time, and it will not be good to catch a cold." ”
"Why are you so cute?"
Qin Weilan couldn't help laughing, looked at me and laughed out loud, laughed so much that her body leaned back and forth, and said, "You are caring about me, but why are you making so many excuses?" Isn't it good to tell the truth? ”
I thought it was nothing, but when she said this, she joked about the fact that I just dressed her, and suddenly I felt less embarrassed.
I was silent for a while, then gritted my teeth and said, "I'm more reserved, okay?" ”
Qin Weilan looked at me and smiled for a while, and then took the lead and continued to walk forward, and I followed her footsteps. After a moment, Qin Weilan looked at me with a complicated expression, hesitated for a moment, and asked softly.
"Jing Fan, I see that you are in a good state now, you ...... It's time to let go of your ex-girlfriend completely, right? ”
I paused for a moment and asked, "Why do you ask?" ”
"That's it...... I suddenly remembered this, and then saw that you are in good shape now, so I asked. Qin Weilan paused and added, "If you think this topic is not appropriate, it's okay not to answer." ”
I smiled and explained, "That's not what it means, it's nothing. I just think...... It's a bit sudden, and I'm curious why you're asking. ”
"Life is in the world, the world is impermanent, things have already happened, so what else can I do? Life still has to go on, but any minute of talking about it to recall and regret what happened at the beginning is a waste of time. ”
Qin Weilan was quite surprised by what I said, she pursed her lips and nodded lightly at me, agreeing with my statement.
"That's right, it shows that you're still a pretty optimistic person."
Qin Weilan looked down at the time on her watch, and said to me: "Jingfan, I should go back to the hotel, the operation of the cute pet club, and then I will hand it over to you, I will deal with the contract when the time comes, and I will leave it in the office for you." ”
"Hmm." I nodded to her and said, "I'll do my best, it's not too early, it's cold outside, you should go back." ”
Qin Weilan walked to the side of the road, and a taxi happened to pass by and stopped. Before getting into the car, she turned her head and pointed to the coat she was wearing, and said to me with a meaningful smile on her face.
"Your coat, I took it, exchange my scarf for one of your coats, isn't it too much?"
"It's okay, just go back with your clothes on, I'm not cold."
Qin Weilan nodded to me, then got into a taxi and left here. Until the taxi disappeared from my sight, a gust of cold wind hit, I immediately tightened my clothes, and stubbornly said that it was not cold, but in fact, in this ten-degree weather, who is not cold?
Standing on the side of the road, I lit my first cigarette of the night and waited for the next taxi to arrive.
The smoke swirled in front of my eyes, and the neon lights on the other side of the road flickered in the fog, and I recalled in my heart that Qin Weilan had asked me about my ex-girlfriend Lin Shile who had greened me.
If she didn't mention it, I really didn't feel it at all, it seemed that when I stayed with Qin Weilan, I always felt a comfortable and natural feeling in my heart, and I was more attentive to doing things, and I didn't think about other things that were not related to the requirements at all.
Yes, in two months, people will marry my good buddies and receive a bride price of 380,000 yuan, but what does this have to do with me?
At the same time as I lost a "girlfriend", I also broke off a relationship with a good buddy. Is there anything more bloody in the world?
……
The next day, I was busy with Lao Wei and Gao Hangfeng all day today about the opening of the new tavern.
On this day, Qin Weilan didn't come to the tavern to look for me until the evening, when she told me that she had already arrived at the airport to prepare for boarding, and told me that she had prepared a gift for us for the opening event of Lao Wei's tavern tomorrow.
I asked Qin Weilan what kind of gift it was, but she didn't say to keep the mystery and expectation, let's wait and see tomorrow, in addition, she didn't forget to tell me to remember to go to the cute pet club to get the contract, and then get ready to work there.
In fact, I know in my heart that the cute pet club, it is almost enough to have employees here, at most arrange a store manager to help take care of it, and there is no need to arrange me over. The reason why Qin Weilan did this was actually to compensate me.
If I could, I would prefer to have a job with a very stable income, but now that it is the end of the year, it is difficult to find a job, plus there is a job here at the Lao Wei Tavern.
When I looked down at the message Qin Weilan sent me, I simply replied to her WeChat, and just happened to hear Lao Wei shouting at me behind me.
"Hey, Lao Xue, why are you standing there in a daze? Hurry over and help, load these things into the car, and send them to the new store together. ”
I turned around and looked back, there were several boxes of wine next to Lao Wei, the old tavern here has enough stock of wine, and a lot of it was specially stocked before, and now that the new store is open, it is natural to bring these drinks over first.
"It's coming, right away."
I walked over to Lao Wei to help him and carried boxes of wine to the van at the door.
"By the way, did you talk to Wei Lan? Tomorrow's tavern opens, will she come? ”
I lifted my foot, pushed the box with my knee, tilted my head sideways and said to Lao Wei: "She told me just now that this person is already preparing to board the plane at the airport, and she won't have time to participate in tomorrow's opening event, but she said that she has prepared a gift for us." ”
"A gift?" Old Wei was stunned for a moment and asked rhetorically, "What gift?" Have you arranged a large number of beautiful girls like her for our new store? ”
