Bai Qingru: "People always want to see what you look like before deciding whether to meet you. If you are not the type they like, don't waste this time."
He Xianmo: "...Then why don't you show me her photo too."
Bai Qingru: "Xiao Jiang must be your type. You'll know when we meet her."
He Xianmo was a little helpless, "Do you still know what type I like?"
Bai Qingru: "There is no better child than a mother."
He Xianmo: "What if one day I like a woman who is completely opposite to what you expected, will you be disappointed?"
Bai Qingru: "No, if you like men, I will be disappointed."
He Xianmo: "..."
On Friday night, Bai Qingru called Lou Xiaojiang and made an appointment to meet on Sunday. The restaurant was booked by He Xianmo.
After making an appointment, Bai Qingru began to pick out clothes for He Xianmo, and kept "teaching" him how to talk to Lou Xiaojiang after meeting, as if he wanted to sell his son quickly.
Although He Xianmo had no choice but to cooperate.
He wasn't sure what kind of person Lou Xiaojiang was in the rumors, but his current situation did require him to get in touch with more people of the opposite sex, otherwise he would only get deeper into trouble by thinking about Zhou Ruo all day long.
Before going to bed at night, He Xianmo couldn't help but browse Zhou Ruo's work WeChat. Unexpectedly, after refreshing, he saw two Moments she shared today - although they were forwarded content, she had time to update them. Doesn’t that mean you’re not so busy anymore?
Then, she will find a man again?
——
When Zhou Ruo returned to the laboratory this time, the intensity of his work was not as high as before.
This drug trial has reached the third phase and is basically about to be approved for release. She came back just to complete this process.
It was just four days of overtime work, which was nothing compared to her busiest time.
She got off work on Friday, but she was on time. She originally wanted to ask Gu Yu to have some fun, but unexpectedly, Gu Yu received a temporary overtime notice.
The plan fell through, and Zhou Ruo was too lazy to make an appointment with anyone else and returned home alone.
After arriving home, Zhou Ruo took a shower and relaxed. Feeling a little hungry, he went to the refrigerator to find yogurt and cereal.
This is the food she usually eats, but when she was assembling it today, someone who has never had many requirements for food found this thing tasteless.
Zhou Ruo remembered the meal He Xianmo cooked last time - although he was not a good person, his cooking skills were really good, and it was much more delicious than the Chinese restaurants she had eaten at here.
But Zhou Ruo only thought about it briefly. She did not contact He Xianmo. She was busy for a few days and had no intention of teasing him.
Although Zhou Ruo had teased He Xianmo several times before, He Xianmo was not a special being to her, and she didn't think He Xianmo valued her. He just couldn't stand her, but he wanted to sleep with her. .
If He Xianmo took the initiative to appear in front of her, she might tease him depending on his mood. Now that there are no opportunities to meet and there is no intersection at work, Zhou Ruo doesn't think it is necessary for them to keep in touch.
After eating yogurt, Zhou Ruo went to the living room to do Pilates for an hour. After that, he checked his mobile phone and received a WeChat message from Ye Jianyu. He said that he was in London on a business trip and asked her to meet up on the weekend.
Zhou Ruo immediately made a voice call and was answered instantly.
"When did you come to London?" Zhou Ruo asked.
"I arrived last week. I was busy with some work, so I didn't bother you." Ye Jianyu asked her, "Have you not worked overtime recently?"
"I've been working for a few days, so I'm not busy." Zhou Ruo said in a rare coquettish tone, "I've been here for so long without telling me. I'm sad."
Ye Jianyu on the other side of the phone was amused by Zhou Ruo, "Your parents asked me to urge you to have a child——"
"How about we stop eating." Zhou Ruo immediately interrupted the spellcasting, "I suddenly remembered that I have plans for the weekend. I am very busy. You should be busy too."
"I'm just teasing you." Ye Jianyu laughed even louder, "Look, I scared you."
"However, you should think about the child." He changed the topic and analyzed it rationally, "It's understandable that you don't want to get married and settle down. You still need to have a child. Last time I met Zhou Li , his wife is pregnant, and Zhou Ming is about to get engaged. If you give birth to a baby while you are young, you can send her back to Beicheng."
"Mr. Ye, if you keep urging me, we won't see you again on Sunday." Zhou Ruo "warned" him in a very shameless manner.
When Ye Jianyu heard this warning, he immediately restrained himself and admitted his mistake: "Okay, I won't say anything anymore. I can't offend you."
"Where do you live? I'll meet you at the hotel on Sunday." Zhou Ruo got back to business.
——
After breakfast on Sunday morning, Zhou Ruo drove to the hotel to find Ye Jianyu.
After the two met, Zhou Ruo accompanied Ye Jianyu to the mall to choose a gift for his fiancée.
Ye Jianyu is Zhou Ruo's mother's cousin. Although he and Zhou Ruo are different in generations, they are only one year apart in age. In addition to their frequent contacts, Zhou Ruo and Ye Jianyu, his uncle, have always had a good relationship. His fiancée is also a good friend.
Ye Jianyu came to London on a business trip, so he naturally asked for gifts. However, his aesthetics was not very good, so Zhou Ruo accompanied him as a consultant.
Ye Jianyu's aesthetic sense was not very good, but he spent a lot of money when buying gifts for his fiancée. After all the shopping, both of them had big and small bags in their hands.
Fortunately, Zhou Ruo exercised a lot and had some strength, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to carry it.
Zhou Ruo threw the last two shopping bags in his hand into the trunk, looked at the pile of things, and turned back to ask Ye Jianyu: "How do you plan to take it back? The border inspection will think you are smuggling, right?"
Ye Jianyu pressed the closing button of the trunk, "I just bought a plane recently."
Zhou Ruo: "..."
It was her fault.
Ye Jianyu: "If you like it, can I give you one?"
"No, no, no, no." Zhou Ruo waved her hand and refused, "I'm just an ordinary worker, I don't deserve it."
Ye Jianyu was amused, and pinched her face in an elder's manner, "I don't know what you think about leaving the family property and not inheriting it, and taking the initiative to suffer."
Zhou Ruo: "This is called experiencing different joys. It's great to work without pressure, and -"
She changed the subject, "If I inherit the family property directly, those men will have to come after my money. I don't want to attract such money-worshiping men."
"Speaking of this, what are you talking about recently?" Ye Jianyu asked with a raised eyebrow.
Zhou Ruo has not been playing in the world for a day or two. This is an open secret in the Zhou family. Her parents do not object to her doing this. Their only obsession is that she hopes to have a child.
"We haven't talked recently, let's just have fun." Zhou Ruo briefly told Ye Jianyu about Zeng Xu and Xu Zong.
After hearing this, Ye Jianyu gave a thumbs up and said, "You're going to kill two of them at once, that's awesome."
Zhou Ruo waved his hand indifferently: "It's just your preference."
She didn't think she was powerful. In fact, she could do this kind of thing as long as she didn't take men so seriously.
She didn't even feel how serious Zeng Xu and Xu Zong were about her. They were just playing around. This was the tacit understanding between adults.
