I met you, I fell in love

Chapter 3 Blind date is a needlepoint

"I was fined five hundred knives in total, five hundred!"

She slapped her hand several times in the air, and she threw the crumpled ticket in the corner of the room.In the evening after returning home, Wen Shi brought up the matter of being detained this time during a video call with his girlfriends, and was so angry that he felt like he could go to the battlefield to fight the enemy with a knife.

"I really didn't expect that person to be so heartless. I even begged him to help me for the sake of my compatriots..." Wen Shi looked sleepy, staring at the two girlfriends with exquisite makeup in the video, as if consciously What, cover your own cheeks——

"Could it be that I'm too ugly? Didn't he have the idea of ​​a hero saving the beauty?"

Lin Weian: "?"

Wen Shi smashed his fist regretfully: "I should have put on makeup and went to the airport! I always wanted to sleep a little longer, and I was too lazy to get up early in the morning to smear, but I didn't expect to stumble."

"Even if you become an Internet celebrity and become a peerless beauty, you can't play the emotional card with others when you encounter this kind of thing." Chi Yiran stroked his chin and explained, "Dabao, since the US customs are so strict, you should not do it in the future Purchasing on behalf of others is a waste of time and risky, there are many ways to make money, tutoring? Isn’t Chinese popular now, I also met many Chinese students here in Helsinki as tutors for foreigners.”

Lin Weian hadn't participated in Wen Shi's discussion with Chi Yiran before, so he didn't know that his best friend had made so many troubles in this matter.

"Being a purchasing agent is a thankless task. You need to worry about postage, authenticity, price, etc. Not everyone has the luck of being a purchasing agent and becoming a business tycoon. I think being a foreigner's tutor is pretty good. Listen It looks so high-end and atmospheric. Do you think it is Zhong Muyuan?"

In the picture, Lin Wei'an kicked the person next to him, and the other party said "um" which was very perfunctory.

Wen Shi: "..."

Chi is also the same: "..."

Wen Shi and Chi Yiran were silent at the same time, and they made eye contact with each other. Don't bring Lin Weian in the video in the future.

"You, Xiu En loves to sprinkle dog food without looking at the time, place and occasion. How miserable I am, what I just experienced, do you understand that the anger in my heart can boil eggs now?"

In exchange for the criticism, Lin Wei'an apologized repeatedly while holding back his laughter.

At this moment, Mother Wen knocked on the door and came in. Lin Weian and Chi Yiran greeted at the same time.

"Hello Auntie!"

"Hello Auntie!"

"Ahh... Okay, An'an, Ranran, you haven't come to Auntie's house for a long time, right? Come back sometime, and Auntie will cook something delicious for you. "

In the past, when Chi Yiran and Lin Weian were studying in Baicheng, they liked to come to Wen Shi's house for dinner. Mother Wen's cooking skills were well-known, and after she went to university, every time she went home for vacation, she would find time to come over.

It's different now, everyone is busy with work, even Lin Weian from the same city seldom comes over, this time Mama Wen mentioned it and invited Zhong Muyuan along the way.

Wen Shi thought, he must be nagging again.

Sure enough, the appearance of Zhong Muyuan made Ms. Wen deeply feel how important it is to have a handsome, outstanding, and good-natured son-in-law.From entering the door to eating, and seeing off the guests, Wen Shi who was beside him frowned in embarrassment. People who don't know the truth will really regard Zhong Muyuan as the son-in-law of the Wen family.

"That's it, you still say you are not in a hurry to go on a blind date?"

As soon as she left, Mother Wen almost pinched Wen Shi's ear and asked her.

"Oh, Mom, don't be anxious every time you see someone else has a boyfriend. You treat Zhong Muyuan like this, I'm so embarrassed in front of Wei An. Restrain yourself, okay?"

I'm really afraid that others will not know that she lacks a boyfriend.Wen Shi shook his head and went back to the room, picked up the ledger on the table and looked through it, and mother Wen who was still chattering behind her saw the ledger, puffed up her mouth in displeasure: "Doing shopping again? If you don’t listen to what I told you to concentrate on studying, you will definitely lose money again, and the business is hard to read, and you are not the material.”

"?"

Parents who are not optimistic about their daughter's ability to make a lot of money are hard to find in today's society, right?Wen Shi tilted his head and looked at Mother Wen: "Without the encouragement of love?"

Mother Wen shook her head resolutely: "No, I gave birth to you. I don't know which onion is which material? Isn't it a stumble this time?"

Pointing to the crumpled tax bill in the corner, he reminded the girl who was lost and still didn't plan to turn back.

"I didn't know it would be so unlucky."

Wen Shi snatched back the ledger and put it in his pocket, held the glasses on the bridge of his nose, he had to be careful with risky investment, maybe next time he found out the right way, he would be able to be more secure, there was no way, the prices in the United States really made her Can't sleep at night.

"Okay, okay, listen to mom, if you don't have enough tuition and living expenses, tell your family. Your dad and I don't have to pay for the two salary cards. What you have to do now is to concentrate on your studies, strive to graduate early, and then find a boyfriend Friends, the matter of boyfriend is very important, don't always take it to heart."

It sounded very touching, Wen Shi put away the accounting book, stroked his hair, and couldn't help asking curiously: "Are you the same mother who used to chase me through my schoolbag to see if there were any love letters?" ?”

"It's just you talking!" Mother Wen leaned over and pinched Wen Shi's elbow, "Can that be the same? Learning is important when you are young, so how can you let your puppy love go. Before you are sensible, I have to supervise you .correct--"

As soon as the voice changed, Wen Shi could tell that the focus was on the back.

Mother Wen pursed her lips: "The last time you came back from vacation and told you that Aunt Huiqing wanted to introduce someone to you, do you still remember? At that time, you said you didn't want to for the time being, but now?"

Now?

Wen Shi was silent for a moment, and Mama Wen immediately caught the gap: "Hesitating? Then give it a try. The man is your Aunt Huiqing's nephew. He works in the United States and is in the same state as you. Once we meet, we will take care of each other. Listen. Said that he will return to the country in a few days, let’s meet up sometime. If not, it’s as if I’ve met another friend.”

Yu Huiqing is Mama Wen's good sister. When Mama Wen gave birth to Wen, Papa Wen was on a business trip, and she helped accompany her to the hospital.So Yu Huiqing has a very close relationship with the Wen family, and has always treated Wen Shi as her own daughter.

"How is it?" Mother Wen carefully watched Wen Shi's expression and reaction, for fear that she would refuse without thinking.In fact, she has seen the photos of Yu Huiqing's nephew, and she always thinks it is very good. The last time Yu Huiqing took the initiative to mention it, she just raised her hands in approval. Because Wen Shi refused to agree, she put it on hold for the time being.

But today, Ms. Wen figured it out. Maybe her daughter was just shy and couldn't take the step of a blind date, so she had to do it.

Introduced by Aunt Huiqing, she rejected it once, and she couldn't refuse the second time. Wen Shi finally nodded and agreed. After all, she might not be attracted to her when she meets her. When the time comes, she will find a suitable excuse to refuse politely and not to refute face. That's it.

"Okay, okay! I'm going to tell your Aunt Huiqing!"

Looking at the back of Mother Wen who was so excited that she almost jumped up, Wen Shi shook her head while touching her forehead. At this time, she still didn't know what she was about to face.

Just sent a question on Weibo——

Only after being arranged on a blind date did I realize that I am not eighteen forever. Here comes the question, how can I gracefully refuse if it is not suitable?

In just a few minutes, there were more than 100 comments and replies, with various emoticons, and I leaned forward and backward while smiling warmly, until I saw the not-unfamiliar name "Kourou".

Speaking of which, there are not many small stories updated by Wenshi these days. Compared with the frequency of posting on Weibo when it was popular at the beginning, it is much less now, but those fans who are familiar with her will still say good morning and good night on her Weibo every day, including Buckle meat.

When it's cold, she will be asked to add clothes to keep warm.

Staying up late will make her go to bed earlier.

Like today, when other people use all kinds of strange tricks, they will uniquely ask her if there is anyone hiding in their hearts.

Seeing this sentence, Wen Shi rubbed his eyes and smiled wryly.

Hidden or not, who can tell?
The restaurant is booked in a very stylish western restaurant in the outer suburbs of Baicheng. If you start from Wen Shi's house, you will need to take a lot of detours if you take the small road.

When he arrived, the man was already there.

Wen Shi was taken aback when he was led to the corresponding position by the waiter and saw who was waiting.How did the world get so small?She thought she would never meet again, but she appeared as a blind date.

Also stunned was Chu Jingxi himself.He got up and straightened the buttons of his suit, and looked at this not-so-strange woman in front of him with interest. Will she forget him this time?

Compared with overalls and white shoes, she looks better in a skirt and stiletto heels.Also, today's Wen Shi put on makeup and took off his glasses, just like when he saw her on the school day, the corners of Chu Jingxi's mouth raised slightly.

"Why are you here?"

Wen Shi only felt that the heels were uncomfortable when he was stepping on the seven centimeter high heels, and he even wrinkled his expression: "Chu Jingxi? Aunt Huiqing's nephew?"

"Hello, Wen Shi."

I'm not good.

Wen Shi muttered something from the bottom of his heart, picked up the water glass on the table and took a few sips with his head up, the cold feeling spread from his throat to his limbs and bones, which eased his emotions.

"How could it be you?"

Her makeup is all white, and her high heels are all for nothing. If she had known that the other party was Chu Jingxi, she must have dressed in a non-mainstream way!Anyway, the impression they gave each other was already deep enough, not short of one more stroke.

Seeing Wen Shi's expression was not happy, Chu Jingxi was not angry, and before he came, he did not expect that the person introduced by his aunt would be Wen Shi.

It was a bland blind date, but it seemed to have an interesting start.

"Sit down first, what do you want to eat?"

Chu Jingxi came over to help her open the chair in a gentlemanly manner, and spread out the tablecloth and handed it to her. Noticing the length of her skirt, she called the waiter to borrow a blanket.

If this series of actions were someone else's, it might be a bonus item, but in Wen Shi's mind, it was just a slap and rub three times.

She didn't forget that at the airport, who turned against her and disapproved of her compatriots, and pretended to be stern and selfless in English.

Wen Shi really didn't want to sit down if it wasn't for the fact that everyone around was watching and everyone was well dressed.

"Did the way here go well? The place I booked is a bit far away, it was recommended by my aunt."

When speaking, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and his tone was very gentle, which made Wen Shizhen suspect that the person he met at the airport that day was not the same person as the person sitting in front of him today.Thinking of this, he tapped lightly on the table with his fingertips, his mind full of how to expose this dramatist.

"Still blaming me for not helping you at the airport?" Xu Shi was silent for a long time when he saw Wen, Chu Jingxi unbuttoned his cuff buttons, leaned lazily on the chair, and spoke in a low voice, with playfulness in his voice.

"Sorry, if I knew at that time that you would be my girlfriend in the future, I would definitely help."

A sip of the standard American accent is like the red wine hitting the glass, low-alcohol and lingering in the ears.

But from Wen Shi's ears, it's no different from playing hooligans. He's always called his girlfriend after meeting him a few times.Throwing the napkin on the table, the imaginary picture is a condescending and extremely handsome questioning, but the reality is that he did not grasp the distance between the chair and the dining table. When he got up, there was not enough space, and his thigh hit the edge of the table...

Wen Shi let out a muffled snort, lowered his head and endured the pain.

"What's the matter?" Chu Jingxi didn't notice her small movements just now while she was looking at the menu, and now she raised her head to ask when she heard a muffled groan.

Enduring the pain and holding his breath, Wen Shi squinted his eyes and gritted his teeth: "I am Chinese, please speak Chinese to me, thank you."

Deliberately avoid the words that make people feel a little distracted.

Eating at the same table, she speaks Chinese and Chu Jingxi speaks English, what is this?Chinese to English or English to Chinese on Google?She is here for a blind date, not to practice speaking and listening.

"I'm sorry, my Mandarin is not good." Chu Jingxi touched the bridge of his nose and explained helplessly, "I immigrated to the United States with my parents since I was a child, and I have always spoken English. I can understand Chinese but can't speak fluently."

What international joke?Didn't that become a New Oriental English training class?
Wen Shi's eyes widened. She didn't intend to fall in love with an English-speaking person. There were problems in daily communication, let alone cultivating a relationship.What other couples think about every day is where to go on a date, but when it comes to her, it becomes a quarrel and they have to look it up in the dictionary.what is this?Mom didn't ask about it before agreeing to the blind date?
Chu Jingxi didn't know that in just a few seconds, Wen Shi's mind had already formed several years of emotional planning and discussion for the future.

He thought she didn't understand what he said. After all, at the airport, some people talked with ducks and used their hands and feet when defending. He also saw it.

"Your English is so poor, why do you still want to study in the United States?"

Wen Shi's shocked face: "..."

The number of meetings did not exceed three times, excluding the fact that they met at the airport because of work, this blind date banquet should be regarded as their first official meeting.

So don't you think it's rude to ask such a question to a blind date?
Wen Shi resisted, so he didn't pour the coffee in front of him, but in his heart, he picked up Chu Jingxi's collar and punched and kicked him.

Brushing the hem of the skirt, Wen Shi told himself that he must hold on, otherwise he would make a fool of himself in this public place, and the skirt and high heels would be useless.

"It's better than some people who are obviously Chinese but can't even speak Chinese well?"

The shiny black leather shoes lightly tapped the ground, Chu Jingxi seemed to smile and said nothing.He began to doubt whether Wen Shi had two sides, sometimes quiet and gentle, and sometimes domineering and unreasonable.But no matter which one, he was very interested.

"Aunt Huiqing has a very good relationship with my mother, so I have to give her face. This meal is considered as compensation for embarrassing me at the airport. As for developing a relationship, I don't think we are suitable."

To be a person, you must have a backbone, and when you are beautiful, you must not lose your ambition!The villain in his heart clenched his fists and shouted that the five good young people should not be tempted and maintain the good quality of being a down-to-earth person.Chu Jingxi's voice is indeed very seductive, and his looks and figure can get high marks in Wen Shi's mind, but even so, it can't conceal the fact that he has played hooligans many times, and the most important point is that he works in the customs!

Wen Shi felt that she couldn't be locked up by the word customs for the rest of her life, and she must have the dignity and integrity she should have!
Should I throw away the napkin and get up and walk away?Just when Wen Shi seized the opportunity to set up the stall, the waiter happened to serve the food at this time...

It's too rich!

Chu Jingxi took the wet towel beside him and wiped his fingers, then said calmly, "Eat first."

As a result, Wen Shi really sat down and ate honestly, as if she wasn't the one who said to have a backbone.

His eyes fell on Chu Jingxi inadvertently. He looked handsome while eating quietly without speaking. Compared with the uniforms he saw at the airport that day, he seemed to be more suitable for the formal suit matching now.

Raising his eyes, what fell into his eyes was the unforgettable and profound facial features. That day at the airport, apart from his cold voice, what impressed Wen Shi was his eyes.At that time, I felt that he spoke English with a straight face, and his businesslike appearance was quite intimidating.

However, her attitude just now was not much better.

Wen Shi lowered his head and fiddled with the ribs in the bowl with his chopsticks, recalling her behavior just now, it seemed that her voice was a bit loud?

She has determined to be a good wife and mother since she was a child. Will she feel like a tigress now?Hey, forget it, never mind, how do you want to make a good impression on someone you will never see again?

"I'll feel very uncomfortable if you look at me like that." Chu Jingxi suddenly looked up.Their eyes collided, and Wen Shi's fingertips trembled. Before he could look back, he heard his teasing, and his face flushed immediately.

"Who...who's looking at you, you...why are you so narcissistic." After she stuttered and explained, she hurriedly lowered her head to eat, but the ribs in the bowl seemed to be against her, and she couldn't pick it up for a long time.

Seeing how clumsy she looked when she was in a hurry, Chu Jingxi pursed her lips and smiled lightly.

It was hard to digest a meal when it was warm. Although Chu Jingxi found a lot of topics during the meal, she could not pick up many topics.

"Are you interested in music? Do you have any hobbies?"

Wen Shi's eyes flashed, and he told a little lie: "Generally, if I have time, I will listen to music, but I can't sing, I always go out of tune, maybe I have no talent in art."

He spoke frankly, but he always felt that Chu Jingxi looked at her with deep meaning, and Wen Shi lowered his head guiltily.

"Can't play small instruments?"

"will not."

"You can't dance either?"

"will not."

The more simply she deserved it, the deeper the meaning in Chu Jingxi's eyes became.

"Ah……"

This last sound, Wen Shi thought he had heard it wrong, raised his eyes suddenly, and saw Chu Jingxi pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word. She was really disturbed by such a small gesture.

After the meal, Chu Jingxi offered to take her home.

Wen Shi refused: "I want to take a walk after dinner."

Looking at the pair of high-heeled shoes on which his eyes fell on his feet, he subconsciously moved his toes back and explained in a superfluous way: "Wearing high-heeled shoes for a walk can help you lose belly fat."

Chu Jingxi didn't expose her, and politely sent her away before turning to the parking lot.

Really didn't keep up?
Taking advantage of the small advantage around the corner, Wen Shi looked back, and saw no one: "Wow, that's amazing. Playing hard to get, it's awkward when you're seductive, but it's easy to break up."

In the TV series, when you look back after ten steps, the plot of sending you off for thousands of miles is not staged, and there are no fantasies in your mind. The only real thing is the soreness in your ankle.

Wen Shi bent down and rubbed it, then glanced at the sky, it was somewhat useless to walk on the path so late, it would be better to stop a car on the main road.If I really want to walk back like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to get up tomorrow.

In the outer suburbs of Baicheng, there were very few cars at night. I stood on the side of the road with my clothes together and the wind blowing for a while, but I didn't see any free taxis passing by. Mother Wen called, and she was about to use the software to call for a taxi.

"Hour, is it over? Where is it?"

"Well, it's over. I'm waiting for the bus at the intersection. My feet hurt so much from wearing high heels that I can't walk."

When Wen Shi said this, there was obviously some complaint in Wen Shi's tone. She planned to wear white shoes, which looked good with the clothes and were comfortable to walk in, but she was disgusted by Wen's mother.

"Who goes on a blind date sweating profusely? And canvas shoes? Doesn't everyone want to dress up very beautifully? This is respect for the other party, so don't take it seriously."

So, she dressed as grandly as Miss World went to participate in the beauty pageant, and the result was Chu Jingxi, she was so bitter that she couldn't speak.

"Then why don't you let Jingxi take you back? It's so dangerous for a girl to take a taxi at such a late hour. Otherwise, you just wait where you are, and I'll call your father to pick you up."

"Don't bother, I'll call you after getting in the car, there won't be any danger. Besides, it's so close to home, I..."

While talking, a horn was suddenly interrupted, and then the window was rolled down, revealing a familiar face, which was just seen a few minutes ago.

"Wen Shi, let me take you home. It's really not easy to take a taxi at this time."

Chu Jingxi yelled in fluent Chinese after practicing several times in the car. Even if Wen Shi covered the phone's microphone for the first time, Mama Wen still heard her, and happily said on the other end of the phone, "Okay." Alright", as if people could really hear it.

"When I was young, let Jingxi take you home, do you know that this is etiquette, let him take you back..."

"Mom, I'll hang up first."

"Beep beep..."

Not wanting to hear her mother continue talking, Wen Shi hurriedly hung up the phone.

For Chu Jingxi who went back and forth, even though she was curious, she didn't agree immediately, she tilted her head, with a smile on her brow: "What is this for?"

In fact, Chu Jingxi never left first.Wen Shi was stubborn and refused to let him take him off, but the night was so dark and it was a remote suburb, he must be worried, so he controlled the speed of the car to the slowest speed and even a bicycle could easily overtake him, so he followed Wen Shi slowly, she Nor was it found.

Walking in high heels is definitely uncomfortable. Whether it is walking or taking a taxi, Chu Jingxi made up his mind to see her get home safely before leaving.

"Shall I take you back? It's not easy to take a taxi in this place."

Chu Jingxi's attitude was very sincere, and Wen Shi glanced at the taxi-calling app that hadn't received an order for a long time, thought for a while, put away his phone and walked over.

As soon as I got in the car, the cold air-conditioning wind wafted over with a faint scent of perfume, wrapping Wen Shi's whole body, so comfortable that there was a feeling that the pores of the whole body were open.

He was secretly happy in his heart, but he still managed his expression on his face.

Wen Shi noticed that Chu Jingxi's car was well maintained, not only in terms of appearance, but also in the configuration of the car, which was top-notch at a glance.

In the limited space, Wen Shi's sitting posture was stiff due to the unnatural oppressive feeling, and his waist became sore after a while.Perhaps it was spotted from the corner of the eye, Chu Jingxi smiled lightly, casually brought a bottle of soda from the back seat and handed it to Wen Shi: "Drink something?"

There is an American accent in his lazy voice, as long as he speaks Mandarin, he always finds it a bit strange.

Ok?funny?cute?Can't tell.

"I always thought you looked familiar. Did we meet somewhere before?"

Hearing this question, Wen Shi turned his head and laughed dryly: "Mr. Chu is forgetful? You detained my suitcase at the airport."

"Me?" Chu Jingxi's eyebrows were slightly surprised, "I shouldn't? It was my colleague who detained me. I was just called in temporarily to help."

Is this also possible?

Facing Chu Jingxi's evasion of responsibility so calmly, Wen Shi was speechless to refute.

In fact, the purpose of Chu Jingxi's starting point was to test to see if Wen Shi could remember what happened at the school celebration party.Compared with his topics, Wen Shi didn't even ask him which school he graduated from, which made him somewhat disappointed.

"I'm home." Soon, Wen Shi saw the gate of the community, and stretched out his finger, "I'll just get off here, thank you for your hospitality today, and drive carefully on the road."

I always feel that there should be no possibility of development in the future, so when we part, we should also have enough etiquette.

Chu Jingxi said "um", the corners of his mouth curled carelessly: "Good night, Wen Shi, see you next time."

goodbye?

Without waiting for the temperature to react, the car window slowly went up, leaving her standing alone at the street corner in a daze.
