Age: Passionate youth, starting from graduation assignment

Chapter 104 Chu Shanshan's Shyness
"Go ahead and tell me about it."

Su Jingshu nodded, and took the thank you letter from Xu Jichang,

"I also told him on the phone that this is just a trivial matter, and it cannot be so solemn."

"As a result, Qianqin insisted on writing this letter, and it took you a long way to travel."

"It's not hard work. There are trains and cars all the way, and it's not running on two legs."

Xu Jichang said.

"That's too much work."

Su Jingshu smiled quietly, "I think it's almost time for dinner, so you can stay at my house for a meal."

"It's also very convenient for me to eat out."

Xu Jichang declined.

Maybe Su Jingshu was just being polite, wouldn't it be embarrassing if he took it seriously?
After all, facing a woman with an unfathomable family background like her, I still have to be cautious.Even if the other party looks very gentle and amiable.

"There's no need to interrupt, it's nice to have someone to chat with to relieve boredom, so you don't have to be polite."

After Su Jingshu finished speaking, she turned her head and gave instructions to the kitchen, "Xiaoyan, cook for one more person at noon today."

"Ok."

The nanny's promise came from the kitchen.

"Professor Su, I'm really bothering you today..."

"The young man is really too careful. And in the future, you don't need to talk to Professor Su one by one. It's too formal. Just call me Jingshu."

Su Jingshu smiled, and then asked Xu Jichang about his previous studies at school and what books he usually read.

Xu Jichang answered truthfully, of course most of the books were read by him before time travel.

In fact, he didn't read many books before time travel, but in this age, his knowledge reserve surpassed most people's.

"Oh? You often read "A Dream of Red Mansions". This is a rare and good book."

Su Jingshu was very interested in Xu Jichang's answer, and began to discuss the books he had read.

And Xu Jichang's opinions made Su Jingshu's eyes light up from time to time.

From the 70s to the time before Xu Jichang traveled, it was nearly 50 years in total. During this period, many academic researches experienced great development, and many concepts flew from the academic world to the homes of ordinary people.

Xu Jichang only needs to come up with it easily, which is a very rare and innovative idea in the eyes of people of this era.

Su Jingshu chatted with him, gradually feeling intoxicated.

"You love reading and are good at thinking, which is very rare in today's society."

After a while, Su Jingshu had established an excellent first impression of Xu Jichang, feeling in her heart that a thousand cups of wine is too little to meet a confidant, "Based on your knowledge, it is enough to be a teacher in a college."

"It's really flattering, I don't have that level."

Xu Jichang said modestly.

After chatting with Su Jingshu for a while, he also had a good impression of her.

At least when she was chatting, she never talked about her family background, she just discussed books, and there were no inscriptions or group photos of any big figures hanging in her home. It can be seen that she is quite indifferent to fame and fortune.

Accepting the thank-you letter for my father is probably just reducing the workload for the elderly at home.

"There is no need to be humble, you do have that level. When higher education resumes entrance examinations, I suggest you sign up."

Su Jingshu looked at Xu Jichang, her eyes were full of love for talent and said, "Looking at the trend of the past two years, I guess it will be soon."

After discussing until now, Su Jingshu found that she and Xu Jichang had the same views on many points, and for a while she felt like it was too late to meet each other.

It would be a pity if such a talent cannot receive higher education.

When Su Jingshu's eyes fell on Xu Jichang, she thought in her heart.

Xu Jichang's heart skipped a beat, and he nodded after hesitating for a while: "If there is such a day, I will sign up."

As a time traveler, he knew that it was normal for him to resume the college entrance examination three years later.

It is very rare for someone like Su Jingshu to be able to foresee in advance.

Of course, this is not necessarily the case, perhaps in her circle, this is already the consensus of everyone.

After chatting with Su Jingshu for a while, Xu Jichang, at her request, left his address and zip code so that the two of them could exchange letters in the future.

The telephone has not yet been popularized, the telegraph is too expensive in terms of words, and letters are the most common means of communication in the current era.

After the nanny brought the food, Xu Jichang and Su Jingshu ate together.

"Originally, the school wanted to assign me a cooking aunt, but I refused, so we can't specialize."

"So Xiaoyan is in charge of cooking in my family. In terms of cooking skills, she may not be as good as the aunt who is in charge of cooking, so you can just let it go."

Su Jingshu said with a smile.

"Where, isn't this dish delicious?"

Xu Jichang said, having dinner with Su Jingshu.

After eating, Xu Jichang saw that Su Jingshu was going to rest, so he said goodbye to her.

Before leaving, Su Jingshu asked Xu Jichang to come to her home tomorrow, and she wanted to continue discussing books with Xu Jichang.

"Good Jingshu."

Xu Jichang replied, saying goodbye to her.

When Xu Jichang turned to leave, Su Jingshu's eyes kept focusing on his back.

This young man is quite interesting and attractive in his conversation. When chatting with him, time flies by without knowing it.

Su Jingshu thought to herself, subconsciously looking forward to meeting Xu Jichang tomorrow.

……

After leaving the faculty and staff's family home, Xu Jichang returned to the guest house as quickly as possible.

Fortunately, it is currently 12:30, so Chu Shanshan should not be starved.

Xu Jichang raised his wrist, looked at the time and thought to himself.

"Duddu, Shanshan open the door, I'm Jichang."

After Xu Jichang went up to the third floor, he knocked on Chu Shanshan's door, "I'll take you out for lunch."

"Squeak..."

The door opened, and Chu Shanshan in a white windbreaker appeared behind the door, "You should have eaten at someone else's house, I'll just eat the steamed buns we brought over."

It can be seen that after she moved into the guest house, she took off the summer skirt she wore inside and changed into a normal match of white windbreaker and lining.

In fact, Chu Shanshan wanted to change her skirt when she was on the train, but there was no condition for changing clothes on the train.

"Come to the capital, what can I do if I don't eat something good."

Xu Jichang smiled and said, "I'll watch while you eat, and let's get down to business after eating."

"Yeah, okay, I asked the waiter at the guest house, and she told me the addresses of several famous cultural troupes in the capital."

Chu Shanshan said as she went out.

"Let's talk about work after dinner."

After Xu Jichang finished speaking, he took her hand and walked down the stairs.

Chu Shanshan blushed and remained silent, and just let him hold hands.

Opposite the guest house is the bustling commercial area, Xu Jichang took Chu Shanshan, found a restaurant with mutton steamed buns inside, and ordered dishes for her.

Different from the gourmet desert that is often said on the Internet in later generations, the bigger the city these days, the more delicacies from all directions are concentrated.

Anyway, they are all state-run restaurants, so there is no need to worry about the rent, and the materials used are still very solid.

After a bowl of fragrant mutton steamed buns was served, Chu Shanshan tore off the steamed buns bit by bit with her hands, and soaked them in the mutton soup.

After soaking, she picked up the mutton inside with chopsticks and ate it in small bites.

Xu Jichang had already eaten at Su Jingshu's house. When Chu Shanshan was eating, he just watched from the side and said a few words from time to time.

Everything a pretty girl does is pleasing to the eye, even watching Chu Shanshan eat is a kind of enjoyment for Xu Jichang.

After Chu Shanshan finished eating the steamed mutton buns, Xu Jichang took her out of the restaurant together, walking on the street while chatting about the job of choosing the head of the art troupe.

"It should not be allowed to directly enter the gate of other people's units. The guard knows that we are here to poach people, so he will definitely drive us away."

"So I think we might be able to poach people by using the method of squatting. It is to observe and inquire at the door of people's doors. If we find out that it is suitable, we can go directly to communicate with people when they are off work."

"What do you think of this solution?"

Chu Shanshan made a suggestion.

"No way,"

After Xu Jichang smiled slightly, he shook his head, "This method is a bit stupid."

"Then what shall we do?"

"I have my own way."

Xu Jichang replied, "Let's not worry, anyway, there is still plenty of time for this business trip."

"If we finish our work early, we have to go back to work early. It's better to go shopping in the capital first, and then look for candidates when we're done shopping."

Of course, spending more time in the capital is just one of the many reasons in Xu Jichang's heart.There were many other reasons, which he did not mention.

If he stays longer in the capital, he can spend more time alone with Chu Shanshan, otherwise he will have many eyes and ears when he returns to the unit, so he has to be careful to avoid people when he comes and goes with her.

In addition, he can also use this time to help Du Xiaojing find out about her father's whereabouts, as well as get in touch with Su Jingshu, who is a daughter of an aristocratic family.

These are all things that he did not tell Chu Shanshan.

Beside Xu Jichang, Chu Shanshan thought about it after listening to his words, and fully agreed, but she obviously couldn't guess all of Xu Jichang's thoughts.

"You're right. I haven't been to the capital yet, so I should wander around here a couple of times, instead of leaving in a hurry."

Chu Shanshan agreed happily, full of longing for the next game.

"We just arrived today, let's go to Wudaokou first, and take you to Wangfujing tomorrow."

Xu Jichang said to Chu Shanshan, and led her for a walk around.

In one afternoon, the two of them wandered around Wudaokou, and Xu Jichang even bought her a thin sweater to wear on her body, so as to resist the possible cooling down in the future.

The sweater is also a white tight-fitting style, which goes especially well with Chu Shanshan.

When the two finished shopping and eating, it was already evening, Xu Jichang took Chu Shanshan's shoulders and sent her back to her room in the guest house.

"It's so hot."

After entering the room and closing the door, Chu Shanshan turned her back to Xu Jichang, took off her trench coat, and said to herself, revealing her slim figure in a tight white sweater.

Xu Jichang stood behind Chu Shanshan without saying a word. When Chu Shanshan turned her head, she realized that he was looking at her with burning eyes.

Chu Shanshan understood the meaning of this gaze, and immediately lowered her head shyly, covering her chest with her hands: "Don't...don't allow you to look at me like this."

"You say no, but it doesn't work."

After speaking, Xu Jichang strode forward and hugged Chu Shanshan, who was only wearing underwear and a tight sweater, into his arms.

"Um..."

Chu Shanshan was hugged by his strong arms, a bit of heat appeared in her usually cold eyes, and her breathing involuntarily became rapid.

"We, uh..."

Chu Shanshan wanted to say something more, but before she finished speaking, Xu Jichang kissed her two cherry red lips, not giving her any chance to speak out.
