Chapter 252: Jasmine's Dinner

After dinner was ready, Jasmine and I sat opposite each other, with a few plates of seafood on the table and a few vegetables picked from the yard. Although I was not good at serving seafood ingredients, it looked quite good.

Molly did not hide her appetite, and her eyes shone in her eyes as she looked at the dishes on the table.

"I have a poor cooking skills, I hope it will be up to your taste!" I said with a smile.

"It's okay, these dishes are already making me swallow my saliva just by taking a look. They must be delicious!"

"Then let's start!" I saw that she couldn't wait to torture her anymore.

"No wine?" Jasmine asked hesitantly at me.

I was stunned. Since I stopped drinking for a long time, my family would not have drinks. Perhaps because she was a woman, I ignored this matter for a while. Seeing her asking, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. This is indeed not like the way we Chinese treat guests.

"Miss Jasmine, I'm sorry, I don't have any wine yet! The girl will just let me go. When you come next time, I will definitely prepare the wine and entertain the girl!" I said with a sorry smile.

Jasmine sighed and said with regret: "It's a pity that there is no wine in such a good dish!" After that, she looked up at me again: "Then I agreed that you can invite me to dinner if you have time!"

I couldn't help but nodded silently. This girl really doesn't understand Chinese language arts and really believes my words as true. But since she has spoken out next time, she will be fine to invite her to have a meal.

So we started having dinner. Jasmine praised my cooking skills and didn't care that she was a girl's house. She put down her chopsticks and used her hands when eating crabs. It can be seen that she is also a cheerful woman. I like this very much, because she doesn't have to be too cautious when dating such people, and it's relatively easy to get along with.

Due to stomach disease, my appetite has never been high. After some accumulation in my stomach, I put down my chopsticks. Unexpectedly, although Jasmine on the opposite side is a well-proportioned beauty, she eats a lot. The dishes on the table are almost gone by her. Then she wiped her hands and said unsatisfiedly: "Mr. Wei, this is the most delicious dish I have eaten in China. Thank you!"

I smiled and didn't say anything, and this was a bit of compliment.

After dinner, I picked a bunch of grapes and washed them, put them on the stone table under the grape rack, and I started chatting with her.

She told me that her uncle has a lot of business in Ukraine, both in terms of food, daily necessities and energy products, and a large part of the former is imported from China.

Jasmine is an international student who has studied in China. She is proficient in Chinese and is familiar with China's national conditions and culture. Naturally, she stayed in China to help her uncle connect with some business matters in China.

My products were just as she said. At first, she just brought some back to China as a gift. Unexpectedly, this food aroused the strong interest of her uncle, a shrewd businessman. Although Ukraine also has a seaside place, it does not produce seafood, so he thinks that this seafood will definitely have a good market in Ukraine.

It was because he asked his niece to transport a small amount of our products to Ukraine along with other goods. After the trial, it confirmed his speculation, so he had the idea of ​​further cooperation, and Jasmine came because of this.

"In fact, there are more manufacturers in this city, and they have more cooperation conditions than our company in terms of strength and scale. Why doesn't Miss Jasmine look for them, but goes to our small village to seek far away?" I asked her.

Moli smiled and said, "Because the product I bought was from your company, and I have learned a little about your company later. I have seen a lot of reports about your company online. Although I have never seen you in the report, I have already had some preliminary understanding of you!"

"How to say it! As the report said, you seem to be with other businessmen

It's different. Almost all other businessmen I know are profit-oriented and want to maximize their interests as much as possible. Even if they do something that is beneficial to society, most of them have impure motivations, just to add some halo to themselves.

But you generously changed the appearance of your village by your own strength, and further promoted the economic development of your small place. People like you are truly useful to society, not those businessmen who blindly seek benefits for themselves. In so many reports, you have never appeared on the front, and even your personal information has not appeared in the report. I have been guessing in my mind what kind of person you are, so I think I must come to see you!"

"Although I had guessed in my heart that you were different from others and had some mental preparations, I realized that the moment I saw you in the afternoon, you were still very different from what I imagined!" She couldn't help laughing again when she said this. I thought she probably thought about how I looked when I was at the dock in the sea.

I lowered my head and smiled and didn't say anything. If I said that this state was the life I dreamed of, I was afraid it would be even more than her imagination. There was still no need to explain it to her.

"Can you tell me? Your story!" She looked at me with interest and said, her long brown hair hanging to the side. Under the street lights under the eaves, she looked less wild during the day and more charming.

"There is no story! I am just an ordinary person. Even this company was established by chance. I never thought about what it would develop into. It was just to let the flow of it today." I said lightly.

"Do you know what the biggest difference between you and others?" Jasmine looked at me and asked with a smile.

"What?" I was aroused by her question.

"The biggest difference between you and others is this attitude of indifferent to everything. Others care about their own interests and business, and you don't seem to care about all this. The impression you give me makes me feel that you seem to be escaping something. Am I right, Mr. Wei?"

Her words made me stunned. I didn't expect that her mind was so keen that she could easily see something hidden in me.

I smiled indifferently: "Actually, I just like this lifestyle. There are so many people in the world, how can everyone be the same? Some people like liveliness, some people like quietness. Some people like money, fame and fortune, and some people like indifferent and casualness. It's just because of different personalities and different choices."

"Is that true?" Jasmine's face showed an expression of uncertainty.

"I saw the photo at your bedside. Can you tell me the story of you and them?" Jasmine didn't seem to notice the unwillingness to speak out in my words, and she still asked. She must have seen the photo and felt curious.

I sighed secretly. At that time, I just wanted to leave a thought for myself, but I brought that photo with me. Unexpectedly, it has become the mechanism for me to uncover my scars and I will be touched if I am not careful.

I had no choice but to tell her the story of Anne and Weilai again, but I said it vaguely. I don’t think it is necessary to say this to her too thoroughly.

Jasmine listened to my story seriously, and her expression gradually became solemn. Perhaps she felt empathy when she heard my misfortune, or perhaps because she apologized for accidentally touching my wound.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wei, I didn't mean to make you sad. I don't know them..." After I finished speaking, Jasmine wanted to explain, but was interrupted by me.

"It's okay, these things have happened, and whether you say or not can change anything. Even if you don't say it, how can you forget it easily! I'm used to taking them with me!

Memories about life, this is nothing!” I said with a faint smile.

The atmosphere became a little heavy because of this topic, and for a moment we didn't know what topics to say to break this silence.

My mood was once again depressed by the tragic memories that were stirred up in my heart!

I looked at the sky, and the stars had already stretched out their heads, hanging on the deep dome, emitting a faint light from light years away!

When I was a child, I heard the old man in the village say that people on the ground will become stars in the sky after they die. Although I knew that this was nonsense when I grew up, I hoped that it was true at this moment, because in this way, I would feel that the relatives and friends who left me did not really leave me. They just changed to another form to be with me. If this is true, then which one is mother? Which one is Anne again...

Jasmine probably felt that she had ruined the originally harmonious atmosphere and felt that it was time for her to leave. She stood up and owed her to me and said, "Mr. Wei, it's getting late, it's getting late, I'm leaving, thank you for your hospitality!"

I stood up and smiled and said, "Courtesy is not just a simple meal. Miss Jasmine is polite."

Her eyes turned and said with a sly sly voice: "Although it's a simple meal, Mr. Wei promised me that he would invite me again in the future, don't forget!"

I couldn't help but smile, thinking that it seemed that I could not avoid showing my cooking skills to her again in this matter. The interface said: "As long as the girl doesn't dislike her, my little yard will welcome her at any time!"

Molly smiled at me again, then she got up and wanted to leave.

I took Jasmine outside the door, and Jasmine seemed to suddenly remember something and turned around and asked me: "Is there a taxi here?"

I was stunned when I heard this, and thought to myself, Miss, you have been studying abroad for the past few years in vain. She really doesn’t understand China. In this big countryside, it is impossible to have a taxi even during the day!

I smiled bitterly in my heart and shook my head blankly!

"Where is the bus?" she asked again.

"The bus only takes two in the morning and afternoon every day! I'm afraid it's gone now!" I had to tell her the truth.

When Jasmine heard this, she suddenly became frustrated: "What should I do?"

I sighed and said to myself: Why do you want to stay for dinner if you didn’t drive? Wouldn’t you make trouble for me? Alas!

"I'll give it to you!" Although I was a little reluctant, I didn't show it.

When Jasmine heard this, the frustration on her face suddenly disappeared and she became youthful and beautiful again.

But when she stood by the roadside, she saw that I was driving a truck, she couldn't help but widen her blue eyes, which were already big enough, and looked at the huge creature that had already stopped in front of her in disbelief.

"You...you can give me this...you can give me?" She was so surprised that she even stuttered a little!

I opened the passenger door and told her very surely: "I only have this!"

Jasmine opened her mouth wide and climbed into the passenger seat of the truck with difficulty. Her surprised expression was immediately replaced by excitement.

Along the way, I drove the truck, and Jasmine, who was sitting next to me, couldn't help laughing from time to time! She probably had never had this kind of experience before. When she learned that my company only had such a truck and my boss didn't even have a car of her own, she undoubtedly subverted her perception of me again.
