You know he can't afford it.
After transferring the money, Xu Xiuwen and Fei Yang parted ways.
He and Qiao Yumin returned to the agency where the latter worked to sign a contract.
Qiao Luoxin followed all the time.
Xu Xiuwen never spoke to her from beginning to end.
On the way back in a taxi.
Qiao Yumin thought about it again and again and decided to apologize to Xu Xiuwen.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xu."
"What's wrong?"
"Chao Jie's attitude just now was not very good. I apologize to you on his behalf."
Only then did Xu Xiuwen understand why she apologized.
"It's okay, I don't care. You don't have to apologize for him, you did nothing wrong, and I should thank you. It's thanks to you that I was able to buy the shop I was satisfied with."
Qiao Yumin shook her head and said, "Chao Jie is a person who thinks highly of himself and looks down on outsiders, but not everyone is like this. There are still many people who welcome outsiders to come and work and settle here."
Xu Xiuwen nodded and said nothing.
After listening to a few words, the driver guessed something.
He suddenly interrupted, "What the girl said is right. Some people are indeed xenophobic, but there are still many people like me who welcome outsiders. I hope that more and more outsiders will come, so that I won't have to worry about not being able to attract customers, right?"
The three people in the car were all amused by the driver's words.
After laughing.
Xu Xiuwen turned his head and looked out the window.
In fact, he didn't take Chao Jie seriously at all.
No one person can represent a city.
Because there is always good and bad in a city.
Xu Xiuwen still has a good impression of Shanghai.
The city is open, prosperous, and has a sense of history.
Soon the taxi arrived at the destination.
Xu Xiuwen followed Qiao Yumin into the store.
The landlord has arrived early.
Go through the process again.
Xu Xiuwen signed the contract quickly.
After transferring the money, return to the store.
Xu Xiuwen seemed to suddenly remember Qiao Luoxin. He walked up to Qiao Luoxin who was sitting next to him and said softly, "Hello, I'm Xu Xiuwen."
"Hello, I'm Qiao Luoxin."
Qiao Luoxin immediately stood up from her seat.
Xu Xiuwen stretched out his hand.
She looked down, then stretched out her hand and shook hands briefly with Xu Xiuwen.
Xu Xiuwen's eyes widened, "Your last name is Qiao too?"
Qiao Luoxin nodded and said, "Yes."
"So what is your relationship with Miss Qiao?"
"She's my cousin."
No wonder when she showed up just now, the first thing she called out was "Sister Yumin".
It turns out that the two are really relatives, and they are cousins.
Xu Xiuwen found this discovery very interesting.
Qiao Yumin and Qiao Luoxin are cousins.
Logically speaking, since they are related by blood, they should look more similar.
But in fact it is.
Qiao Yumin looks more like a young Tao Hong.
Qiao Luoxin looks more like Zhang Xinyu.
At first glance, Xu Xiuwen didn’t realize it, but the longer he looked at it, the more he felt that they looked alike.
They all have willow-shaped eyebrows, big eyes, high noses, cherry mouths and oval faces.
Especially the eyes, the white part is too much, which is very similar.
Xu Xiuwen once saw a statement.
If a woman has more white in her eyes, it means that she has stronger sexual desires.
Moreover, women with more white in their eyes are more ruthless, more cunning, and find it difficult to remain loyal in relationships.
Xu Xiuwen didn't know whether this statement was reliable.
It is most likely unreliable.
Although Qiao Luoxin has more white in her eyes, her whole person has a kind of cold and ascetic temperament, without that kind of coquettishness.
Let’s get back to the topic.
Qiao Yumin and Qiao Luoxin are cousins, but they don't look much alike.
So Xu Xiuwen was a little surprised, but that was all.
Xu Xiuwen didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point: "I heard from your cousin that you are a professional barista?"
"Yes. I have a SCAE certificate, a barista professional skills certificate, and I have worked at Starbucks for two years."
Qiao Luoxin doesn't look very old.
Xu Xiuwen guessed that if she had attended college, she should have just graduated, and no more than a year ago.
It turned out that she had worked at Starbucks for two years.
Xu Xiuwen's first reaction was that she lied.
Xu Xiuwen did not immediately expose her lie, but calmly asked: "Which university did you graduate from?"
"Shanghai Normal University."
"Which class?"
"Class of 2002."
I heard from Qiao Luoxin that she is a graduate of Shanghai Normal University class of 2002.
That was just as he had guessed.
She just graduated this year.
So she must have lied before.
Xu Xiuwen then asked, "You said you've worked at Star8 for two years, but didn't you just graduate?"
Qiao Luoxin explained: "Yes, I started working part-time at Xingba Ke in my junior year, and it lasted exactly two years until I graduated from college. After graduation, I stopped working part-time."
After listening to her explanation, Xu Xiuwen realized that it was a misunderstanding.
Xu Xiuwen couldn't help but ask, "You are a student at Shanghai Normal University. Why did you want to work part-time at Starbucks for two years? Are you short of money?"
Qiao Luoxin shook her head and said, "My parents asked me to go to Normal University. I wasn't interested in it myself. I like making coffee, so I went to work part-time at Starbucks. I also got the certificates during my part-time job."
"Then why didn't you continue? Didn't you just graduate?"
Qiao Luoxin said: "Well, because my parents wanted me to go to the Ugly Country to accompany them, they didn't want me to stay alone in the country, so I had to resign."
"Is that so?" Xu Xiuwen nodded.
At this time Qiao Luoxin began to ask questions.
“I heard you’re opening a coffee shop?”
"Yes."
"What kind of coffee shop are you going to open? Franchise or create your own brand?"
“I want to open my own coffee shop.”
After Xu Xiuwen finished speaking, he noticed that the corners of Qiao Luoxin's mouth slightly raised.
But it disappeared in just a moment.
He couldn't be sure if he was seeing things.
"How far are you prepared now?"
