Yesterday was Friday, and today is Saturday. But Teacher Tian Xiran, who finally ushered in the weekend, still got up early.
"Hey! It's really annoying... Huh? Chen Xi? Why don't you say anything?" Tian Xiran, who was wearing pajamas with carrots printed on them in front of her laptop, asked her best friend on the phone while revising the lesson plan.
Different from the solemn and decent white shirt and jeans yesterday, now she is wearing pink pajamas and a pink headband, and she seems to be a cute little girl.
"Chen Xi? Chen Xi! I'm talking to you!"
Her eyes shifted from the laptop to the mobile phone placed next to her, with a hint of blame on her expression.
Today is Saturday. If you call me early in the morning, will you let me live?
Of course, these are Chen Xi’s inner words.
"Ah? Sigh! Your dean is really not a human being! I guess your school is the only primary school in the country that makes teachers change their teaching plans more than ten times, right?" Chen Xi's sleepy and obviously perfunctory voice came from the phone. p>
"Hey!" After listening, Tian Xiran frowned suddenly. She finally left the mouse with her right hand and quickly picked up the phone next to her. "I'm talking to you about the blind date now! I talked about the lesson plan ten minutes ago.
It’s over!”
Tian Xiran stared angrily at the picture of Chen Xi's big ears on her phone, as if she wanted to pull Chen Xi's big ears out of the phone.
"Oh! Ahem!" Chen Xi seemed to wake up suddenly, and she coughed twice in embarrassment: "I heard it, what, isn't it your aunt who arranged it for you again? She really doesn't let her do it every weekend.
You are free!"
She pretended to be pretentious and sighed in a serious way.
However, this sentence seemed to be of great use to Tian Xiran. She who was frowning just now immediately forgot her anger, took over Chen Xi's words and began to complain: "Yeah! Introduce one person a week! I'm almost like that
He’s a regular customer of the hotel! And, this time, he doesn’t seem to have a stable job! I don’t know how he passed my aunt’s ‘political review’!”
"Ah? Is it true? Didn't your aunt only like to introduce you to civil servants before? She said that such a noble profession as a people's teacher deserves at least one civil servant!" It seemed that this news finally aroused Chen Xi's interest, and she quickly asked Tian
Xiran asked rhetorically.
"Neither do I... Oh, by the way, I heard my aunt say before that she seems to have a master's degree in 1985!" Tian Xiran's eyes returned to the computer screen, and he adjusted the text box of the PPT while speaking. p>
"Master's degree 985?" Chen Xi asked in surprise, "Master's degree 985, will you return to our small 18th-tier city after graduation?"
Chen Xi became more energetic after hearing this.
"Who knows? But if he comes back to us with such a high degree of education, it will be really hard to find a job! I don't know the details!" As he said that, Tian Xiran added another flashy picture to the PPT.
"No, you...hey! Tian Xiran, Tian Xiran..." Listening to her indifferent tone, Chen Xi suddenly sighed helplessly. "Why don't you just have a showdown with your aunt? She has arranged so much for you.
If you don’t care about blind dates, wouldn’t it be a waste of time for both of you?”
Recalling Tian Xiran's attitude when it came to blind dates in the past few months, Chen Xi brought up the old matter again.
"Showdown?" Tian Xiran's mouse pointer finally stopped. She said loudly towards the mobile phone: "That's my aunt! She has no children, and she is like a biological daughter to me. What do you want me to say? Besides, my
It's not like you don't know her character, she does too..."
"Oh stop, she is doing it for your own good, right? But even if she is doing it for your own good, she also... Oh! Forget it, you are a good girl who has listened to your parents for half your life. Now that you are twenty-six, you have to listen again.
As for your aunt, it’s really you, Tian Xiran!”
Saying that, Chen Xi, who was half lying on the bed, shook his head helplessly.
As Tian Xiran's best friend since childhood, I already know about her experimental elementary school, experimental junior high school, Yishan City No. 1 Middle School, Normal University, and after graduation, she returned to the experimental elementary school to be a teacher. This step-by-step life path planned by her parents has been understood.
I couldn’t understand her better. Therefore, she was not surprised at all when she saw that she had finally found a stable job and now had an attitude of “obedience” to her elders when it came to finding a partner.
"I..." Hearing what his best friend said, Tian Xiran, who didn't know how to refute, just pouted, "Then you can accompany me again at noon? Next time, I will definitely recommend the blind date arranged by my aunt for me.
Drop!"
"That's it again!" Chen Xi's complaint came over the phone. "Actually, last month I wanted to ask you to go eat fish, all because you kept going on blind dates. But today at noon, I really can't do it. My grandpa
Birthday party today!"
"Oh."
When Tian Xiran heard that his best "comrades" could not go to the battlefield together, Tian Xiran said "oh" in frustration.
"It's okay, you can go by yourself! I believe you! We've been through so many times, what scene haven't you seen?"
A little worried that her best friend might have stage fright, Chen Xi had no choice but to give her one final word of comfort.
"Well, then, okay then!"
Tian Xiran sighed softly.
In fact, as a people's teacher, Tian Xiran should not have to worry about finding a partner. Moreover, she is devoted to her teaching career and has no time or energy to fall in love. But, as she said, she loves her very much.
My aunt has long discovered her personality problems. A "good girl" like her who is introverted, weak, and hates social interaction is indeed not popular in today's marriage market.
Therefore, after being persuaded by her aunt for a long time, even though she was twenty-six years old, Tian Xiran was finally forced to agree to the blind dates her aunt arranged for her. Although sometimes she really just wanted to leave.
It’s a process, but at the very least, she’s still willing to go through it.
……
At 11:30 noon, even though the appointment was for 12 o'clock, Teacher Tian, who has always been "ahead of schedule", still showed up at the door of Jiangnan Xiaozhu early.
She has been to this moderately high-end hotel many times. The private room at the back has almost become her "blind date room".
At this time, Tian Xiran was wearing a brand new sky blue dress, and Teacher Tian, who seemed to pay special attention to this dinner, and who never liked makeup, actually wore delicate light makeup on her face.
"Master's degree in 1985..."
Sitting on the chair in the box, she whispered softly while waiting.
However, unknowingly, when Tian Xiran was thinking about something randomly, the time had already reached 12:10.
"Madam, would you like to order some food?"
The waiter came in politely and asked.
"Ah? Don't order it yet, I'm waiting for someone, um."
Obviously the other party was late, but at this time Tian Xiran did not realize the seriousness of the problem. She was just bored and started counting the number of bricks on the wallpaper.
In order to have Jiangnan characteristics, this hotel specially used Jiangnan brick wall pictures as wallpaper.
"Huh?"
When she counted the total of three hundred and eighty-seven yuan for the four walls, she took out her phone again and looked at it.
"It's almost one o'clock, isn't it?"
Looking at the big "12:54" on the phone, Tian Xiran finally frowned.
Although it is a blind date, at least Tian Xiran's attitude is "correct" every time, but it is not that she has never encountered someone who is late.
"But it's been an hour!"
She complained in a low voice.
"By the way, I forgot to ask my aunt for her contact information!"
Patting her head, she suddenly thought of this.
It is true that every time in the past, her aunt, as the "middleman", would give Tian Xiran the contact information of the other party in advance, but there were indeed times when her aunt might have forgotten it.
However, this time, without the other party’s contact information, the other party was late at the same time!
"Hey...Isn't he really in a hurry? I, I should wait..."
Tian Xiran, who had been sitting on the chair for more than an hour, struggled.
"I can't call my aunt now, can I?"
Although he was already ravenous, Tian Xiran quickly thought: "If I call my aunt now, it means telling my aunt that the other party is late, which is definitely not good, right?"
Putting his right hand on his stomach, Tian Xiran was in trouble.
Finally, after not knowing how she survived the last ten minutes, at 1:18, Ke Yi finally appeared at the door of the box.
"You are just Tian, uh, Tian, ahem, Teacher Tian, right?"
The other party's voice was frivolous. Of course, it was hard to be polite since he had even forgotten his own name.
The most important thing is that when Tian Xiran heard the sound and raised her head to look at the other person, at that moment, she didn't believe her eyes.
The upper body she wore was a black short-sleeved shirt that was so dirty that it looked gray, the lower body was floral pants of various colors, and the feet were wearing slippers that made a "tap-tap-tap" sound when walking.
"Teacher Tian?"
As soon as Ke Yi spoke, Tian Xiran looked at his face unconsciously.
The messy long hair is shiny with oil, and there is even a drop of red chili oil on the thick glasses. Although the overall facial features are not particularly ugly, the very obvious dark circles really affect the appearance. Of course, If he is worthy enough to talk about the word "good looks".
"Ahem, hello, I, um, I am." Tian Xiran stood up and nodded in embarrassment.
But, what about Ke Yi? It seems that if he is not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed! Of course, Tian Xiran’s reaction just now also confirms this sentence.
"That's right! Haha, I'm Ke Yi. Well, I played games all night yesterday and got up late today."
Ke Yi calmly sat down opposite Tian Xiran.
Was he an explanation just now?
However, is this also an explanation?
You made yourself wait for more than an hour and he didn't even apologize?
This is Tian Xiran’s truest thought at this time.
"Have you ordered yet?"
Ke Yi, who crossed his legs as soon as he sat down, asked directly.
"Ah no, not yet!"
Tian Xiran still hasn't gotten over the shock.
"Well, I want to ask..."
"Do you eat spicy food?"
She was about to say something when she was immediately interrupted by Ke Yi's question.
"Ah? No, thank you."
"Hey, then you won't be happy! I'm not happy with anything spicy!"
Ke Yi smiled heartlessly.
"Hello, hello! Waiter, here! That, stir-fried fat intestines, hairy blood, what? Not a Sichuan restaurant? Then, there are common dishes, spicy chicken, right? What? This is a Jiangnan restaurant? Are you like this? No, there's nothing! Can the fish-flavored shredded pork and Kung Pao chicken be OK? This is very common! How about some hot and sour cabbage to relieve the tiredness? Then change it! Change it to something like that, oh , hand-shredded cabbage! Um, I also need two bowls of rice. By the way, do you want to eat rice?" Ke Yi, who had told the waiter a lot, suddenly looked at Tian Xiran.
But at this time, Tian Xiran once again showed an expression of disbelief.
What I meant was that I shouldn’t eat spicy food, right? She thought to herself.
Moreover, his ordering skills...
"Uh, no, no..."
"Then a bowl of rice!"
Before Tian Xiran could finish speaking, Ke Yi immediately made a decision.
……
"Hoo!"
Watching the waiter walk away, Tian Xiran slowly let out a breath.
From just now to now, even a clay figure would be a little angry after being treated with such an attitude!
Moreover, Tian Xiran really couldn't figure out how the performance of the person in front of him was related to the words "985 Master".
"Mr. Ke!"
Tian Xiran's previous embarrassment and embarrassment were finally replaced by anger, and she looked straight at the man opposite.
"I think there is no need to continue eating this meal!" As she said this, she stood up quickly.
"Oh, by the way!" She just turned around and quickly turned back, "I apologize for leaving midway, but I really don't want to stay here any longer!"
After putting down these words, Tian Xiran picked up his bag and walked out the door angrily.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
However, what she didn't expect again was that the man actually chased her out again.
"Um, Teacher Tian, cough cough." Ke Yi, who had been acting very naturally just now, suddenly became embarrassed, "Well, you see, I came out in a hurry. I didn't bring any cash or mobile phone with me. We all ordered the food just now...
…”
Tian Xiran's eyes widened again.
He actually wants me to pay the bill?
Tian Xiran, who could hardly catch her breath, was completely defeated by his rogue. Without saying a word, she avoided Ke Yi and prepared to leave quickly.
However, the man behind him caught up again.
Ke Yi stood in front of Tian Xiran, touched the back of his head, and showed a shy look like a woman, "Well, Teacher Tian, look, you reserved this room. If I can't pay the bill by then, they will call your mobile phone.
It’s ugly for you to ask for a debt, isn’t it?”
Tian Xiran's face was red with anger and her body began to tremble. At this time, she couldn't even stand still.
"Okay, okay!" She insisted through gritted teeth. After taking out her phone, she staggered back to the front desk.
After it was reported that Alipay had received 108 yuan, Tian Xiran finally walked out of Jiangnan Xiaozhu without looking at this man again.
……
"Hoo!"
Ke Yi, who was watching Teacher Tian go away, finally breathed out slowly.
"Did you overact?"
After muttering something, he gently took off his glasses, which had no prescription at all.
"Forget it, I've dealt with it anyway. Well, it's just a pity that those few dishes are not spicy. I don't like spicy food! How about - take it back to Bai Yu? That kid is really cheap!"
After muttering a few words to himself at the door of the hotel, Ke Yi put his hands in his pockets and walked back to Jiangnan Xiaozhu.
