Chapter 97 An Unsatisfactory Meeting
Being lame in life does not affect the arrangement of other things.

After eating a meal of 'rice porridge', Xiao Yuan got in touch with Emily.

The place where we made an appointment to meet, at nine o'clock in the morning the next day.

Xiao Yuan appeared at Chao Coffee on time.

Huizhongli, where he lives, is only more than 1000 meters away from Chao Coffee in the Asian Games Village.

It's just a 10-minute walk, which is very convenient.

Arriving at the appointed table No. [-], Xiao Yuan sat down quietly when he saw the sign of 'You are a guest' on it.

"Hi sir, someone has made a reservation here." The girl in uniform hurried over.

Seeing her anxious look, she must have just come to work part-time.

Xiao Yuan nodded and smiled: "I have an appointment with the person who reserved the seat, Emily, Ms. Lu."

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, "Ms. Lu booked the table, what would you like to drink?"

"A glass of water, thank you." Xiao Yuan responded.

The girl raised her head strangely, glanced at him and left.

People ordering water in cafes are not as common as on TV, except for guests with children.

At least, during the first half of her part-time job.

Xiao Yuan was the first customer who calmly 'ordered'.

"Your clear water." The girl brought clear water, still full of curiosity about him.

And Xiao Yuan just happened to have something to ask her: "Excuse me, can I talk about the salary of the part-time job here?"

Xiao Yuan wants to find a part-time job for the elder sister by the way.

She is alone and unfamiliar with the place.

It is not so easy to find the right job at a time.

If the salary here is not bad, it will be much easier to find another job while working part-time.

The girl was surprised, but still enthusiastically told him the truth.

Who can refuse a handsome little brother who speaks softly and loves to laugh?

I work part-time for four hours a day, and my monthly salary is about seven or eight hundred.

Because of the Olympics, there has been a shortage of manpower recently.

But what it will look like after the Olympics is not clear.

However, part-time jobs are temporary.

If I consider long-term development, I would not come here to do a part-time job.

Xiao Yuan was wondering if the eldest sister would be satisfied.

There was a figure on the opposite side, who suddenly fell on the sofa.

The smile of the elegant mature woman, like a delicate oil painting, catches the eye and lingers deeply in her mind.

"Hello, genius." Lu Ke crossed his hands and propped his chin up jokingly to reveal his identity.

"Emily?" Xiao Yuan recognized her voice.

It was exactly as I imagined...

The difference is huge.

"Little guy, it's very rude to stare at a girl like this when we meet for the first time."

Sensing his gaze, Lu Ke couldn't help but laugh.

However, the other party's innocent eyes of pure appreciation did not make her feel uncomfortable.

This is still a fledgling chick, so tender.

Lu Ke licked his lips involuntarily, the weather in the imperial capital is so dry!

Looking back, Xiao Yuan smiled a little embarrassedly.

He was simply surprised and surprised, and had no other thoughts.

It's so embarrassing to be exposed in person like this!

"Okay, let's talk about the business." Entering the state, Lu Ke behaved completely differently from before.

If she was a sexy beauty in the past, now she is a vigorous and strong woman.

In the process of Xiao Yuan explaining his plans for the future, she found loopholes several times.

And every time, she will pursue it like an enemy.

To be honest, the first meeting was not pleasant.

The strength of this woman made Xiao Yuan feel uncomfortable.

It's that sense of threat and urgency that your comfort zone has been invaded.

Lu Ke was not very satisfied with his performance.

This is a chick with a genius mind, pure, innocent, kind, giving people a beautiful illusion that the world is warm.

But Lu Ke is no longer a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

She's here to discuss business, not love.

However, look at it from another angle.

He's another perfect potential collaborator, at least in control, without interfering with her future career plans.

Furthermore, he does have great potential.

From the previous statement, it can be concluded that the pride hidden under the gentle smile is absolute confidence in oneself.

"I need time to think about it." Lu Ke gave his answer.

The same goes for Xiao Yuan, "Me too."

Seeing the resistance between his brows, Lu Ke was irritated.

This little guy is actually dissatisfied with her performance?

"Xiao Yuan, I admit that you are a genius."

"But the world is not as beautiful as you imagine, and not everything can be solved with technology."

"The shopping mall is like a battlefield... No, it is more sinister and cunning than a battlefield. Once you seize the opportunity, swarms of piranhas will pounce on you and bite and swallow the weak. Your thinking is too naive."

For Lu Ke's statement, Xiao Yuan did not criticize.

He just stated his opinion, "I like to live where there is light."

"But there will always be night."

"Then keep it out, that's where I need your help."

Xiao Yuan frowned, and said to himself: "But now it seems that you prefer the dark night."

"..." Lu Ke bit his lip.

She was about to be pissed off by this little boy, why did she prefer the dark night.

She just saw too much ugliness and filth, and recognized the cruelty and coldness of the real society.

but……

Recalling the innocence and simplicity of the past, did I have the same pure eyes as him at that time.

This clean and innocent look, I really want to protect it.

Lu Ke suppressed his inner impulse and allowed himself to maintain the quality and judgment he should have in his profession.

"Ms. Lu Ke, thank you for taking your precious time to see me, and hope to meet again next time."

Determined that she was not the person he was looking for, Xiao Yuan decided not to waste any more time.

After politely nodding goodbye, he left the cafe.

As for paying the bill, he only ordered a glass of free water.

Seeing the back of him leaving decisively, the anger in Lu Ke's heart exploded completely.

Take out your phone, regardless of the time.

Lu Ke dialed Handsome John's private number on the other side of the ocean: "Emily, do you know what time it is?"

"Don't tell me that, I'm about to explode, John, your genius is so hard to deal with, he's like a..."

"A naive idiot, a stupid kid living in a fairy tale."

Hearing the description of Handsome John, Lu Ke was stunned.

Afterwards, Handsome John chuckled and said, "Emily, that child is not naive, let alone stupid."

"He just... is more willing to believe that the world is kind and beautiful."

"Trust me, Emily. If you really know him, you'll understand what I'm saying."

"That child...not only can bring you career opportunities, he will turn your life upside down."

As if thinking of something interesting, Handsome John smiled and hung up the communication.

In the cafe, Lu Ke, who was holding the phone, had a tangled expression.

Then he got up abruptly, and quickly chased in the direction Xiao Yuan left.

At this time, the part-time girl who had just finished her work and was going to entertain her.

All I saw was an empty seat with a half glass of water and a sunken sofa.

……

PS: I've been too tired recently, fell asleep, and arrived a few hours late, I apologize to Yu Yan.
