Early the next morning, Xu Hongdou, who wanted to sleep in, got up early.
She forgot to close the window last night, and a lot of mosquitoes flew into the room. They not only feasted on her, but also attracted friends and disturbed her sweet dreams.
After breathing a sigh of relief, she changed into casual clothes and walked out of Room 6.
The bright sun was shining brightly, causing her to squint her eyes and look sideways. She saw a black cat playing by itself in the rest area on the second floor.
"Yeah, Mimi."
Xu Hongdou let out a touching exclamation and walked over. The black cat seemed to have become accustomed to strangers coming to the courtyard frequently. It neither ran nor barked. It was still playing by itself as before.
After teasing for a while, but seeing that the cat didn't respond to her, Xu Hongdou had no choice but to give up, got up and walked leisurely downstairs.
When he arrived downstairs, Damai, dressed in casual clothes and an apron, was making breakfast in the kitchen. This kitchen was generally only used by residents of small courtyards.
"Hey, hello."
Seeing that she was a resident of the small courtyard and a young woman who looked younger than herself, Xu Hongdou smiled and took the initiative to say hello.
"My name is Xu Hongdou, I just arrived yesterday."
Damai looked at the sudden appearance of the stranger and was a little at a loss. She was frightened and looked at the new resident with a good face and long hair who was getting closer and closer, and was introducing himself enthusiastically, and said intermittently:
"Hello, my name is Damai."
"Barley, red beans and barley are all grains." Xu Hongdou smiled and sat on a chair at the bar.
…
"Speaking of pigeons, are we going to catch such an early flight? It's only what time and we're already in Dali. What's the difference between this and staying up late?"
Zhang Wentao, who was wearing jeans, a red Arc'teryx Alpha hard-shell jacket, and carrying a 55-liter hiking bag of the same brand, got off the plane and glanced at the watch in his hand, complaining.
After drinking yesterday, he was slightly drunk and at the other party's suggestion, he booked the same flight, which was the earliest flight every day, and came to Dali.
Even after packing his luggage and catching the flight, he basically didn't sleep all night. In order to consider the other party's feelings, he took the economy class. Not only did he not have food on the plane, but the narrow budget airline seats did not allow him to sit on the plane at all.
No rest is allowed either.
"Hey, Brother Wen Tao, why do you look like you're half dead? You're so young, but you look like you're suffering from kidney failure. You can't go on like this." Pigeon, who was leading the way, pulled Zhang Wentao's sleeves and headed to the terminal anxiously.
As he walked out of the building, he turned back and complained.
"Hey, hey, don't pull me, my legs and feet can't keep up. Slow down, don't be in a hurry."
Zhang Wentao, who was being dragged by his cuffs, tried to make the other party slow down, but the pigeon wrinkled his nose and said: "Brother Wentao, if you move, I won't pull you. Let's hurry up. My boss is picking me up at the terminal. This is departure."
Floor, you can’t park at the door for too long.”
The boss will come to pick you up? That really can’t be delayed.
Hearing Ge Ge's explanation, Zhang Wentao immediately quickened his pace. Although they had only known each other for a few days and were tricked into coming to Dali, after getting along with her, she was also a good girl and a friend of a madman, so it was better not to mess with her.
It's better to have trouble.
In this day and age, it’s hard to be a boss.
What if there is a fine and the little girl is asked to pay...
Seeing Zhang Wentao quicken his pace, Pigeon loosened his grip on Zhang Wentao's sleeve and walked out of the terminal with a smile on his face.
As soon as she stepped out of the terminal lobby, she saw her familiar figure. She stood on tiptoes happily, waved her arm and shouted: "Mr. Xie, I'm here!"
Hearing the sound, Xie Zhiyao, who was wearing sunglasses, saw his employee and was stunned for a moment. Why did he go out to play and bring one back? Now someone is going to be sad.
With doubts and gloating, he came to Ge Ge and Zhang Wentao in three steps and said with a grin: "Why, please introduce me, this is your boyfriend?"
"No, this is my crazy friend's good friend, Brother Wen Tao. He just didn't know where to travel, so he tricked me into coming here. I happened to see that Sister Xiaochun in the group said that there was still an empty house in the courtyard.
, Hehe, I want a discount."
Pigeon chuckled and watched Zhang Wentao and Xie Zhiyao take the initiative to introduce them.
"Oh oh oh, it turns out it was a misunderstanding. Hello, I am Xie Zhiyao."
"Hello, I am Zhang Wentao."
After the two shook hands briefly, Xie Zhiyao looked at the man in front of him from the corner of his eye, who looked about the same age as himself, but had a beard and braids, and felt a little curious.
This man is not simple.
Working at BJ Investment Bank, he had come into contact with wealthy businessmen of all sizes, and he noticed the difference in Zhang Wentao the first time he shook hands and looked at the other person carefully.
Arc'teryx's hard-shell jacket costs about 9,000, hiking shoes cost more than 2,000, pants cost more than 2,000, including...the watch on the opponent's hand.
It is a classic Portuguese timepiece from IWC, priced at around 90,000 soft coins.
Although these are nothing compared to real wealthy businessmen, at least this person is from a well-off family; and he is single, and there is no color difference on the ring finger from wearing the ring for a long time; in addition, this person should be out and about for a long time.
.
Long hair that has not been taken care of for at least half a year shows that this person is more casual.
Another piece of evidence is that the crocodile leather strap of the watch is a bit worn...
"Welcome to our Dali. If you are free then, I will ask Pigeon to take you around. We not only have a horse farm, but also a tie-dye workshop and a wood carving workshop. By the way, the cafe in our village is also good. We have
YN’s special Pu’er coffee.”
Faced with the other party's enthusiasm, Zhang Wentao smiled: "The days are long, don't be in a hurry."
After saying hello, the three of them quickly walked to a Land Rover Defender without further chatting and stuffed their packages into the trunk.
Zhang Wentao said to the pigeon: "I'll sit in the back and catch up on my sleep."
After making an OK gesture, Pigeon opened the door and reached the passenger seat.
Sitting in the open back row, Zhang Wentao moved his body a little. The chair was still comfortable like this. The small chair on the plane just now was really painful, and he couldn't straighten his legs.
As he was sighing, Xie Zhiyao, who fastened his seat belt and put on his sunglasses, started the car, and while driving out of the airport, he opened his mouth and asked: "Where is Mr. Zhang from?"
"Me, BJ's."
"Oh? BJ's, the accent doesn't sound the same. I used to work in BJ and also went to university there. In that case, we are half fellow villagers."
"Well, I have been working abroad before, so my accent has changed. Now back in BJ, few people can recognize my accent unless I open my mouth to curse."
"Hahaha, I understand, I understand."
"Brother Wen Tao is an amazing French chef. The red wine braised beef he made yesterday was delicious. Really, I ate three bowls of rice."
"Well, then the residents in the courtyard will be in a good mood."
There were relatively few cars on the road, and Dali’s sea-ring highway was built very smoothly. After chatting for a few words, Zhang Wentao leaned on the window and looked at the sparkling Erhai Lake outside the car window and the Cangshan Mountain in the distance, gradually closing.
