We Meet Again Today

Chapter 20: What a coincidence it is (5)

Views:

"So the things I learned were only half-baked, and I could barely master the basic skills." Gu Ziyi also found it funny when she thought about it now. But later I felt that some talents were quite good.

Ji Tong was amused by her: "I think Aunt Yiyi is very dignified and elegant. Why do you think Aunt Yiyi likes to lie to children when you say it?"

Gu Ziyi shrugged, looking innocent: "That's true."

Speaking of her childhood, Ji Tong said, "I was very envious of you when I was a kid."

"Why do you envy me?"

"Aunt Yi Yi is very good to you. She never loses her temper." Ji Tong liked Gu Ziyi's family atmosphere very much. It's not that Ji Tong's family has a bad relationship, but that she is afraid of her mother.

Ji Tong's mother was also a dancer, so she sent Ji Tong to learn ballet since she was a child. The process of learning ballet is very difficult, such as practicing standing on pointe for a long time. As most people know, ballet dancers have very good bodies and look very beautiful, like swans. There is only one pair of feet, which is not that pretty.

Ji Tong's mother is very strict with her, and strictness does have its benefits. For example, she can become an excellent dancer, and her mother's contribution is indelible.

But Ji Tong is really afraid of her mother, and she has been afraid of her since she was a child.

Gu Ziyi reached out and touched Ji Tong's head, "Aunt Tong does it because she loves you. She wants you to become better and more outstanding. You are no longer a child now, so don't be so afraid of Aunt Tong."

"That's what you say, and I understand the truth. But... I'm still afraid."

The Ji family is a loving father and a strict mother.

The Gu family has loving parents.

It's still different after all.

There are things that affect me in my childhood that I can't change throughout my life.

As she was eating, Gu Ziyi noticed a glance looking at her, fleetingly. She looked around but didn't see who it was.

After a while, that feeling did not disappear, but became stronger.

She turned around and looked over, and this time she found the source of her gaze. She directly met Luo Lian's gaze.

Beside Luo Lian... sat a young woman wearing a light green skirt.

We can all meet here, what a coincidence.

Since meeting the Pei family father and daughter with Luo Mingsheng last time, Luo Lian has not contacted Pei Yuan in private. He didn't have any thoughts about Pei Yuan at all, and adding him on WeChat was just a courtesy so that he could contact her easily if he needed anything in the future.

But Pei Yuan couldn't hold back his anger and took the lead in contacting Luo Lian. I chatted a lot with him on WeChat, just casually at first, and Luo Lian responded politely.

Later, Pei Yuan asked him to have dinner with him and ask him about some work issues. It was not convenient for Luo Lian to refuse, so he had to agree.

The place to eat was booked by Luo Lian, so he could go directly to Jian Fan after eating. With Pei Yuan's consumption level, she would definitely prefer a high-end restaurant, but since Luo Lian made the reservation, she agreed.

Luo Lian didn't even think about asking Pei Yuan to treat him. If he asked Pei Yuan to treat him, he would be too stingy.

He came directly from the company, and Pei Yuan also drove here by herself. The two met at the door of the restaurant and came in together.

As a result, Luo Lian found Gu Ziyi as soon as he came in.

He is not sensitive enough to other people, but he can see Gu Ziyi at a glance.

She seemed to have come with a friend, and the two were chatting and laughing. Gu Ziyi smiled so happily, even her eyes were smiling, from the heart. I'm afraid I can only smile like that when I'm with people I know well.

After he met Gu Ziyi again, it was not that he had never seen her smile, but it was not sincere, it was polite, polite, and distant.

Although Luo Lian warned himself not to look too obviously, he couldn't restrain his instinct to look at Ziyi.

Yes, liking Gu Ziyi is instinctive.

Pei Yuan first went to get some food and brought it over.

Luo Lian also grabbed some food casually, his eyes lingering on Gu Ziyi's side.

The two people sat down facing each other and said a few words. Luo Lian couldn't help but look in Gu Ziyi's direction.

Pei Yuan looked up and found that Luo Lian was not focusing on him. She followed Luo Lian's gaze and saw two very beautiful women sitting over there.

One of them happened to be looking this way.

Pei Yuan frowned slightly and said, "Luo Lian?"

Luo Lian blinked her eyelashes and turned back, "Huh?"

"Did you listen to me? I just asked you a question." Pei Yuan said with a smile, but felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

She feels that she looks good and has a good figure, so she won't let other women compare to her in a place like this, right

Luo Lian lowered his eyes and looked at the dinner plate, "I heard the question you asked. I actually don't know much about hotel management. It might be more meaningful to ask your father for advice in this regard. I can't give you any useful suggestions."

Pei Yuan glanced to the other side from the corner of her eye and saw that the two women there were doing everything as usual, talking and laughing. Just pretend that they don't know Luo Lian.

Pei Yuan said: "Mingsheng and Yuheng are cooperating, and we may meet often in the future."

"Yeah." Luo Lian's voice was light.

Pei Yuan rolled her eyes, "Do you... have a girlfriend?"

Luo Lian felt as if he had been stabbed in a sore spot, feeling bitter in his heart. He said truthfully: "No."

It has existed before, it does not exist now, and it will exist in the future.

He picked up the cup and drank the water in it. "I'll get some drinks." Then he stood up and left his seat.

His eyes fell on Gu Ziyi.

Gu Ziyi is his favorite person.

Back then... If it were...

Luo Lian pursed her lips, feeling uncomfortable when she thought about the past.

The two of us used to get along so well, but now it's like this. He even had to wait for the opportunity to pursue Gu Ziyi again.

How ridiculous.

He took a glass of juice and returned to his seat. As soon as he sat down, Gu Ziyi and Ji Tong on the other side had already stood up and were about to leave.

Luo Lian sat up straight, his left hand clenched into a fist under the table.

Gu Ziyi and Ji Tong left the cafeteria.

Luo Lian lowered his head to eat.

Pei Yuan talked a lot again, actively trying to express herself and making herself feel more lively and cheerful, so that she would be more popular.

But no matter how she behaved, Luo Lian was mostly polite.

If it's someone you like, no matter how boring the words are, he can pick it up.

If you don't like someone, no matter how colorful, lively and interesting you say it, he won't be interested.

This is the difference between liking and not liking.

Moved by the heart, it varies from person to person.

Pei Yuan's obsession with Luo Lian is very superficial and depends on his appearance. She felt that Luo Lian was her ideal reality. It all comes down to her aesthetics, and Luo Lian has a high degree of education, a turtle student studying abroad, a young and successful person, and a very good family background.

It's almost like it's tailor-made for her.

What reason does she have for not liking Luo Lian

Mr. Jin:

The pace in the first part will not be very fast, and it will feel a bit depressing. There will be big changes after Chapter 50.

Starting from April 21, 4,000 words will be updated every day. It will be updated after 8:30 every night and before 10:30 at the latest.
