Chapter two hundred and fortieth chapter first wash fade rouge
After a night of overturning of the tea art reality show "People from ancient times and modern times are tireless, they will know how worthy they are of being drunk", the imperial capital ushered in cool wind and rainy days that lasted for two days.
Fortunately, the drizzle did not affect the normal takeoff and landing of flights, and the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra successfully arrived in Beijing on Wednesday morning to complete its assembly.
With the full cooperation and careful training of Mei Ciyi and Yan Qing, the progress of the sight-reading practice of "Butterfly Lovers Violin Concerto" is very gratifying.
Although there was a lot of wind and rain in the past two days, it did not hinder everything from going smoothly. In the hearts of all Shanghai friends, there was a sense of joy and comfort in watching the light rain and gentle breeze falling on the neem flowers, which were as fine as snow specks on the flat sand.
However, Shao Qing, who also flew to the imperial capital from Shanghai, where the weather had returned to fine weather, was also hit by an autumn rain when getting off the plane, and quietly returned to Beijing on Thursday, was not in such a happy mood.
"The house leaked when it rained all night, and the boat was late and encountered a strong wind. It is normal for a traffic jam of three or four kilometers for half an hour in this part of the imperial capital. I can't help it if I am really late..."
After driving around three times in the underground parking lot of the New World Department Store in Chongwenmen before finding a parking space, Shao Qing, who had no time to touch up her makeup, hurriedly applied some lip gloss to the makeup mirror on the sun visor and stepped out in high heels.
She got out of the car and trotted all the way to the direct elevator. She pursed her lips and continued to talk on the phone: "Where did you find these weirdos...Wait a minute, thank you, Mom, this is Cuihua Building, right? Then two
building…"
After almost daring to catch the elevator, Shao Qing did not forget to say thank you to the girl who held the door for her. When she pressed the floor button, she caught a glimpse of her slightly embarrassed wet figure reflected in the mirror wall, which made her furious.
Mr. Shao continued to complain to Ran Ning on the phone: "The soles of my shoes, the hems of my skirts, and the cuffs of my cuffs were all soaked by the rain... Well, it wasn't because of that smart brother just now that he had to go to the Temple of Heaven Park in the rain. He
Maybe he has that serious illness, I really don’t know how he became the chief information officer of a listed group..."
The elevator, which originally had only two occupants, squeezed in a large wave of tourists while it was stopping on the first floor. The crowds were so crowded that no one recognized the urban beauty with messy hair and dripping with sweat in the corner. She was Zeng Shu.
Shao Qing, who is on the Whisper Hot Search List.
"...Well...I don't want to recall that greasy face anymore. I hope that today, the last Mr. Ran, you can arrange something a little normal..."
Shao Qing, who was worried about others and raised his hands to protect his face, continued to call in a low voice. After returning to Beijing, he had several kisses without stopping since he landed. Mr. Shao was really tired of dealing with Ran Ning's nagging on the phone.
As the elevator was about to arrive at the terminal of today's torture, she rushed to her mobile phone and said: "Okay, okay, okay... there's no need for photos, we're going to meet directly, Mom, I'm here, I'll talk to you later."
explain."
Although the words were beautiful, Shao Qing, after hanging up the phone, glanced at the photos sent by Ran Ning on the way out of the elevator to Cuihua Building. She unexpectedly discovered that the image of this man named Wang Chiyou was pretty good, especially
Compared with those previous weirdos who even lost control of their body shape, they stand out from the crowd.
Probably due to the influence of the street lights, this full-body photo looks a little overexposed. Wang Chiyou, who is carrying a fully wrapped helmet, is standing very casually. His sizable beard is quite eye-catching. He looks about the same height as Yan Qing.
, there is also a heavy-duty motorcycle parked behind him with its high beams on, adding a bit of wildness to his vicissitudes of life.
"Sure enough, it's 185. Oh, no wonder Mr. Ran is assigned to Cuihua Building. He turns out to be a fellow from Jiaodong and a partner of Junhe Law Firm. His job is not bad. He studied at Renmin University as an undergraduate and is Pepe's senior. He graduated in 2011...
Wait a minute... wasn't this born in 1989 or 1990? You know there must be something wrong with my mother being so attentive!"
After looking at the photos and looking through the chat history with Ran Ning, Shao Qing happened to walk to the door of Cuihua Building at the northernmost end of the second floor. After discovering that his mother had deliberately concealed the age difference between Wang Chiyou and herself, she originally planned to
After going to the bathroom to tidy up for a while, she immediately lost her mood and was led directly to the reserved box by the upright-looking young girl.
"Mr. Wang..."
The private room called (Laoshan) opened its door to the inside. The man in the room was reading a book with his head bent over the Eight Immortals table. There were four or five extinguished cigarette butts lying in the ashtray beside him. It was obvious that Wang Chiyou had been sitting there for a long time.
After a while, after a soft knock on the door, the waitress obediently held the menu and reminded: "Ms. Shao is here."
"I was so absorbed in reading, I'm sorry..."
When he looked up and saw Shao Qing holding a woolen coat, Wang Chiyou was stunned for a moment, but he quickly realized what he was doing and put down the book in his hand. The gentleman stood up unobtrusively and opened the door for her to sit opposite her.
The flat back chair said: "Ms. Shao, please sit down."
"Thank you, sorry for the long wait..."
After hanging his rain-soaked coat on the clothes hook behind the door, Shao Qing sat upright while protecting the skirt of his suit. He generously looked at the man opposite him who was wearing a decent formal suit. He looked slightly different from the vicissitudes of life in the photo.
Compared with her appearance, Wang Chiyou himself, who had shaved his beard and had his hair cut much shorter, looked much younger. The two of them looked at each other for a moment. Shao Meiren smiled charmingly and took out a cigarette and a lighter from her handbag to ask her direction.
Opposite person: "Do you mind, classmate Xiao Wang?"
"No, I smoke too, why do you always call me Xiao Wang? Okay..."
Sending the ashtray to the other side, Wang Chiyou seemed to have expected Shao Qing's strength, but this title still surprised him.
"I hope my Mr. Ran has not caused you any trouble. If so, Sister Shao will treat you to dinner as an apology..."
After lighting up the cigarette, Shao Qing firmly gained the upper hand. She raised her hand to take the menu from the waiter and handed it to Wang Chiyou. She puffed out smoke rings and said, "Let's order!"
"Well, let's have a cold dish first, Beef with Lao Tang Sauce..."
Taking the menu and flipping through it, Wang Chiyou told the waiter the name of the cold dish. Guessing that Shao Qing probably thought he was too young, he shook his head and pointedly said: "This dish needs to be simmered slowly, listen.
It is said that Cuihualou’s broth becomes more and more popular as it gets older!”
“There are also a lot of tender Shandong dishes, including the signature hibiscus chicken slices with pea sprouts…”
Deliberately pronouncing the word "nen" with an accent, Shao Qing could be said to be very familiar with several of Cuihualou's signature dishes. She flicked the ashes of her cigarette, brushed her hair that was hanging in front of her eyes, and turned her head to the waiter.
Added: "The key is to match it properly, little girl, are you right?"
"???"
After the two of them pretended to order food to express their age, the waiter at Cuihua Building was stunned for a moment. She blinked her big eyes in confusion. She muttered to herself: "Lao Tang Sauce Beef,
The signature hibiscus chicken slices with pea sprouts, I understand it but I don’t seem to understand it completely.”
“Golden Boy, Melon and Arctic Clams…”
Wang Chiyou, who continued to order, did not look at the menu again, but turned his attention to Shao Qing opposite, with a confident smile on his face, and he said with a pun: "I don't think this dish seems to be from all over the world.
The ingredients come together and taste very good.”
"Squid braised with cabbage..."
After putting out the cigarette butt, Shao Qing calmly met Wang Chiyou's gaze, raised her eyebrows slightly, and with squinting eyes, she looked around and said, "That's true. Isn't this the same reason for this dish?"
“Seven-flavored salt golden tofu…”
Although the words "young" and "young" were a bit harsh, Wang Chiyou was still shocked. Lawyer Wang, who didn't want Shao Qing to continue making a fuss about his age, reached out and touched a pack of cigarettes in his arms after naming the dishes.
When he came out and took out his cigarette, he asked the waiter: "Can tofu be fried into gold bricks?"
"It must be possible! We are Cuihua Restaurant, which gathers the essence of Shandong cuisine on the first floor to delight diners..."
Although I didn’t quite understand what Wang Chiyou meant (a female college student holding a gold brick), it was obvious that the little girl was very proud of her hotel. She recited the whole sentence, which made Shao Qing smile.
"He was worried that the soft tofu would be blown into two gold bricks and be too heavy to be picked up with chopsticks..."
After putting out the cigarette butt and suppressing her smile, Shao Qing changed to a more comfortable sitting position and took another menu from the waiter. After careful consideration, her eyes stopped at the page of cold dishes: "Here comes the whitebait and bitter chrysanthemum.
You think, the strong melon is not sweet."
"There are already six dishes, you two..."
I have never seen someone ordering like this in my career. The waiter ordered a few dishes that were written down on the note pad. She hesitated and reminded in a low voice: "That should be enough..."
"It doesn't matter. I can have more cold dishes and have some mustard duck feet..."
Interrupting the waiter's persuasion, Wang Chiyou added another dish, holding a cigarette in his mouth and trying to cover up his embarrassment at being repeatedly rejected by Shao Qing. However, the lighter slipped three times in a row before lighting the fire. He inhaled the tobacco breath deeply into his lungs and spread his hands.
Yixiao: "I have a unique taste. I am not afraid of bitterness or spicy food."
"How about a nine-turn large intestine? Forget it, let's just bake the flower rolls for the main dish..."
Seeing that Wang Chiyou was pretending to be calm, Shao Qing didn't want to continue to embarrass herself. Danfeng turned her eyes and changed the topic: "I know your school girl, a movie star, and a lady of Gusu City.
I feel like you two are very compatible in every aspect..."
"Two examples, plus a serving of rouge radish..."
With a wave of his hand, he sold Zhou Peipei. Shao Qing's cheeks were inevitably reddened, but Wang Chiyou, who was unaware of the situation, was so excited that he even forgot to flick the cigarette ashes in his hand.
, he once again focused his fiery gaze on the opposite side: "Everyone has their own preferences, carrots and cabbages. There is a saying I like very much. The most important thing in the world is the harmony of souls, isn't it?"
"Already nine levels, although..."
Only then did the waiter realize that the two people in front of her were actually on a blind date. She suppressed the thought of complaining and said weakly: "There are five cold dishes."
"One more almond milk from Jiulongzhai, first of all these, please, little girl..."
When she first heard about the word (rouge radish), Shao Qing's first reaction was that there was probably something wrong with her makeup. She persuaded the waiter to go out and place an order in a few words. Shao Meiren took out the round mirror that came with the powder puff and took a closer look, except for a little bit.
Apart from looking a little tired, she was otherwise okay. After smiling with relief, she looked at Wang Chiyou on the other side: "Actually, it's the same as ordering food. Many times, the excitement of not getting what you ask for is always stronger than what you get. Three views
If we don’t understand each other very well, how can we talk about soul compatibility?”
"Crack!"
These words successfully extinguished the opponent's rekindled fighting spirit. Shao Qing raised his eyebrows proudly and decisively rewarded himself with a cigarette.
"No, I actually know you better than you think. My undergraduate degree was from Communication University. I should have called him Di Guangcai. I entered the industry in Dingxin before I graduated. I have a wide range of interests, including calligraphy, painting exhibitions, music, and even antiques.
All kinds of art collections are involved..."
After a moment of speechlessness, Wang Chiyou spoke with a slightly struggling expression and accurately stated Shao Qing's resume, hobbies, etc., facing the gradually becoming confused gaze, he said affectionately: "It is true that it is wrapped in
In "Pause for Today", the charming figure wearing a fur coat is amazing, but in fact, in "Moonlight", you who love but can't get it make me pity you even more, those unexpressed pains and forbearance..."
"Stop! I don't know where you heard these rumors from. I haven't paid attention to them for a long time..."
Holding a cigarette and holding his hands in front of his chest, Shao Qing stared defensively at the man opposite who was trying to appear harmless. Perhaps stimulated by some of Wang Chiyou's words, Shao Qing took out a round shape from his handbag again.
Holding the mirror, she took out a few more makeup remover wipes and wiped them directly on her rather delicate makeup: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I deceived you with the whitewash I put on this skin."
"..."
Wang Chiyou was stunned by this makeup removal operation. After taking off the isolation and loose powder, Shao Qing took a few deep breaths and finally exposed the faint fine lines between her eyebrows to the man opposite her. This made Lawyer Wang even more confused.
In desperation, loopholes appeared frequently: "I still feel beautiful, but maybe I'm a little haggard because I haven't had a good rest. In fact... I've seen you... without makeup."
"Crack!"
One was not extinguished and the other was burning. After blowing out a long string of smoke rings, Shao Qing said categorically: "Impossible! I have been wearing makeup every day since I was thirty!"
"Aunt Ran sent it to me a few days ago. I'm sorry, A Qing, but actually your schedule today..."
Wang Chiyou, whose eyes were evasive and aware that he was in the wrong, stood up and took two steps back to apologize to Shao Qing: "The unhappy lunch at Baikui Laohao Restaurant, the afternoon tea at Chongwenmen Purple Medal, the shower in Temple of Heaven Park.
The rain, and even the fat-headed and big-eared man who confessed to you in Tianxiangmu Mansion this morning...I know all this, and you are very beautiful..."
"Bang!"
When Shao Qing got up, she never imagined that there was a mole in her family. As she breathed rapidly, her chest rose and fell violently with the proud mountains. She pointed at Wang Chiyou and was so angry that she couldn't speak for a long time.
Among the mess of previous blind dates, there was one who was the most outrageous. His image was just as described by Wang Chiyou. He had a fat head, big ears, and a bloated body, but he was the most confident. Shao Qing, who had just gotten off the plane, rushed to Chongwenmen.
People in the cafe covered with rose petals knelt on one knee to welcome her arrival.
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
The reserved Tianxiangmu Mansion was completely silent. Two violins, one violin, and one cello played the song "Human World" in unison. Accompanied by a romantic string quartet, the fat-headed and big-eared man made this unexpected move.
The confession made Shao Qing sick to his core.
"Why don't we just get married! I'll give you the car and the house..."
Shao Qing, who was extremely angry at that time, was still decent. She chose to reply with a charming smile: "I will give you who I am, and I will give you everything I have."
"Okay, okay, you're not kidding me, are you?"
Drooling all over the floor, the fat-headed and big-eared man was naturally overjoyed. It was obvious that he never expected Shao Qing to react like that.
"You were the one who made the joke on me first."
After coldly speaking, Shao Qing walked away. She had only complained about these embarrassing experiences to Ran Ning. Apparently the devil in the family had revealed everything to Wang Chi who was waiting at the terminal.
