Xi Dongyang drove out of the community and went directly to a 24-hour soup dumpling restaurant.
The car was parked in a roadside parking space near the soup dumpling restaurant. Xi Dongyang didn't get out of the car in a hurry. After turning off the car, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Wei Qiuju's number.
Not long after, the call was connected.
Wei Qiuju's voice came from the phone, "Hey, Xi, why are you calling me so late? Are you trying to chase me? If so, I advise you to give up as soon as possible.
What an idea! We are not suitable in every aspect, do you understand?"
The phone is here.
Xi Dongyang was speechless for a while.
He was rejected like this before he even opened his mouth. This feeling... really made him feel complicated and inexplicable.
Although he had no intention of pursuing her, hearing her say such words was not a pleasant experience.
"Hello? Hello? Why don't you speak? Is there anything else you want to tell me? If not, I'm hanging up!"
Wei Qiuju's voice came from the phone again.
Xi Dongyang then spoke: "Don't get me wrong, I know we are not suitable for each other, so I don't want to pursue you, it's just..."
After a pause, he looked through the car window to the soup dumpling restaurant not far away.
He said calmly: "I just happened to be out for a late-night snack alone, and suddenly I wanted to ask you if you would like to try something? For example, Xiaolong soup dumplings, fried dumplings or wontons? If you want to try it, I
I’ll pack two copies for you and deliver them to you later. If you don’t want to, then..."
"I want Xiao Long Tang Dumplings! I also want red bean fermented rice. By the way, do you have adzuki bean fermented rice? It's best if it's iced. Also, can you get me some wontons too? I'll give you the money!
OK?"
Before Xi Dongyang finished speaking, Wei Qiuju rushed to answer.
Xi Dongyang's expression froze, and then he smiled slightly.
He had noticed before that this girl had a bit of a greedy mouth. Greediness seemed to be her weakness. Unexpectedly, this weakness turned out to be really useful.
"Okay, then just wait for my call! I'll send it to you in a moment. It's still at the wall last time, okay?"
"Okay, okay! Thank you for your hard work!"
Wei Qiuju's tone improved a lot.
Xi Dongyang smiled faintly, hung up the call, opened the door and got out of the car.
…
That night, Wei Qiuju ate very happily.
While eating, I picked up my phone and sent Xi Dongyang a text message to express my gratitude.
Obviously, because of the late night snack, her impression of Xi Dongyang improved a lot.
…
Noon the next day.
Magic City, Fudan University.
After the bell rang at noon, Xu Tonglu stopped the counselor of his class, Ren Xidong, as quickly as possible.
Quite coincidentally, the last two classes of their class today were the classes of counselor Ren Xidong.
Ren Xidong is about in his early forties. He is not tall and has short hair, but his temperament is quite elegant.
Wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
Seeing Xu Tonglu running in front of him and blocking his way, Ren Xidong stopped. His expression was a little surprised, but a smile appeared on his face. He raised his hand to push up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and asked with a smile: "Classmate Xu Tonglu, do you have something to do with me?"
?”
Xu Tonglu clasped his hands together as if pleading, but the smile on his face was a bit happy, "Teacher! I need your help with something, give me a chance? Let's go out and find a place to eat, and let's chat while eating?"
Ren Xidong chuckled and shook his head slightly, "Tonglu Xu, as your counselor, I feel it is necessary to remind you that this is the SARS period and you cannot leave the school gate."
The smile on Xu Tonglu's face became even wider, and he still clasped his hands together, "So, teacher, do you think I can get in your car? Your car can go out of school, hehe, right?"
Ren Xidong laughed.
She raised her finger and pointed at him, but still shook her head, "No! I can't help you cheat."
Xu Tonglu's face turned bitter and he was about to say something more.
Ren Xidong added: "However, I am your counselor. Since you just said you asked me for help, I will definitely give you a chance, so be it! Now go to the cafeteria to get two meals, and then come to my office to find me.
Even if you treat me to dinner, is that okay?"
"this……"
Xu Tonglu was surprised, but he also felt pleasantly surprised, so he naturally agreed quickly.
…
About fifty minutes later.
In an office, there were no other teachers, only Ren Xidong and Xu Tonglu, separated by a desk, both had lunch boxes in front of them.
But the food in their lunch boxes didn't move much.
Just after listening to Xu Tonglu's request, the way Ren Xidong looked at Xu Tonglu was completely different from before.
A bit surprised.
He nodded slightly and said, "You don't show your real face, Xu Tonglu, you are really good at hiding your clumsiness! It's been almost a year since you entered school, right? It's only today that I realized that although you were born in a rural area, your family background is not simple at all. I didn't expect that Ximen Yipin Company,
It's from your family, um, the Ximen Yipin that you mentioned, which produces instant noodles, I've known about it for a long time.
This company is so exciting!
Not only does the product have a good reputation, but it is also willing to spend a lot of money on promotion. If I remember correctly, the spokesperson your company hired before seems to be Jackie Chan? Recently, Andy Lau and Zhang Geshen seem to be endorsing your new products.
Product, right?”
Xu Tonglu blushed a little when he was praised, and explained with a smile: "Teacher, these are all done by my elder brother. These industries are also my elder brother's and have nothing to do with me. Speaking of which, the reason why I can sit in front of you now is the teacher."
, and it’s also thanks to my eldest brother who insisted on allowing me to continue studying when our family was in the most difficult time, otherwise, I would definitely have no chance to become your student.”
Ren Xidong nodded slightly and praised: "Not bad! If you have this mentality, you can look forward to the future, okay! You want your senior Shentu to help your elder brother run this company to go public, right?"
Xu Tonglu nodded quickly, "Yes, yes! It's best to invite Senior Sister Shentu. My eldest brother said that remuneration is not an issue. My eldest brother keeps his word and will never break his promise! Teacher, please rest assured on this point."
Ren Xidong laughed and nodded slightly, "Well, your eldest brother can start from scratch and create such a big family business. I believe he will not be a person who breaks his word. So, don't worry, I will give you Senior Sister Shentu first.
Make a call and ask if she has time recently, okay?"
Xu Tonglu nodded quickly in response.
Under the gaze of Xu Tonglu, Ren Xidong took out his mobile phone and searched in the address book for a while, "Found it..."
He muttered happily to himself and immediately dialed the number.
After a while.
The call was connected, and a woman's voice spoke very fast from the phone.
Xu Tonglu, who was sitting across from Ren Xidong's desk, couldn't hear clearly what the woman said on the phone. He only heard Ren Xidong briefly explain the matter, and then made a few ums and ums, and finally said: "Okay, let's go to the No. 1 Scholar Building tonight."
See you there, see you there or not!”
After saying that, Ren Xidong hung up the call under Xu Tonglu's gaze, smiled at Xu Tonglu who looked expectant, and said, "You're lucky, Shen Tuqing's current case is about to end, and she agreed to interview us.
You juniors should have heard a little bit about her temperament. If she is not interested in a case, she will not waste any time. Since she agrees to the interview, there is a high possibility that she will be invited."
