Chapter 006: Blind date, eating hot pot, going to the movies on a date(1/2)
January 30th.
Wednesday.
At 9:30 in the morning, after the stock market opened, Bai He continued to buy stocks.
At 11:30 p.m., the market will be closed for lunch.
Bai He went downstairs to have lunch.
After lunch, Bai He and Li Yanyu chatted on WeChat for a while.
At about 4:40 in the afternoon, Bai He arrived at the entrance of Chaoshan Hot Pot Restaurant.
As soon as he parked the car, Bai He received a call from Li Yanyu.
"Are you there yet?"
"arrive."
"I'm coming too."
Bai He saw Li Yanyu's car, got out of the car and waved.
"You sit in the car, and I'll sit in your car later."
"OK."
After a while, Li Yanyu parked the car, got out of his car, walked a few steps, opened the passenger door of the Mazda, and got in.
"Shake your hand and let me get rich." Li Yanyu smiled and shook hands with Bai He.
"You are so good at talking, you should go into sales." Bai He said with a smile.
"How dare I resign? My iron rice bowl is lost, and neither my wife nor my father-in-law and mother-in-law agree."
Li Yanyu is a civil servant. He and his girlfriend have obtained a marriage certificate but have not held a wedding banquet yet.
"How did you and your cousin introduce me?"
"To be honest, I said a lot of nice things." Li Yanyu said with a smile.
"I have so many advantages. Can you finish them in a short time?"
"Last night, my cousin and I talked all night. I was worried about your marriage. When you and Xiaoya get married, you have to thank me as a matchmaker."
"Easy to say."
"What advantages do you think you have?"
"The jade tree stands in the wind, graceful..."
"Stop it!" Li Yanyu said with a smile, "You don't think you are a handsome guy, do you?"
"Isn't it?" Bai He raised his right hand and touched his chin.
Li Yanyu saw the watch on Bai He's wrist, reached out and grabbed Bai He's hand, pulled it over, and looked at the watch.
“Holy shit, Rolex Daytona, is it real?”
"Is it fun to wear fakes?"
"No!" Li Yanyu said with a smile, "You are really willing to spend money. Such a watch costs hundreds of thousands."
Bai He smiled slightly and did not answer the question.
Li Yanyu put down Bai He's hand and asked, "You said you bought a Porsche Cayenne. What's the landing price?"
"Almost two million and one million."
"Damn!" Li Yanyu said with a smile, "You have become the second generation of rich people."
"Aren't you envious?"
"I'm so jealous."
"Work hard and strive to become a rich second generation in your next life."
"Death early and reincarnated early?"
"I didn't say that."
"When I get married, you will be my best man and drive my wedding car."
"Easy to say."
"Why--"
"You sigh, you have a car, a house and a wife. You are the envy of many men."
"That's right. Better than the best, better than the worst." Li Yanyu smiled and said, "Do you know the situation at my aunt's house?"
"I don't know, I never heard you say that."
"My aunt and uncle run a hardware store. The business is good and they can earn hundreds of thousands a year. They live in Moon Bay, in a villa and a mansion worth millions or even tens of millions. My aunt and her family are all very good-natured.
Be well-educated. If my cousin likes you, even if you have no money, my aunt and uncle will not object. My cousin is twenty-six years old, and there are many boys chasing her, but she... I don’t know what she thinks, all the time
Not in love."
At this time, Li Yanyu's cell phone rang.
After looking at the caller ID, Li Yanyu said: "My cousin called. She should be here. Let's get off the car."
After getting out of the car, Li Yanyu saw his cousin standing not far away, hung up the phone and waved.
"Bai He, this is my cousin Song Xiaoya. Xiaoya, this is my old classmate Bai He."
"Hello, cousin!" Bai He smiled and stretched out his hand.
Song Xiaoya hesitated for a moment, stretched out her hand, and shook Bai He's hand: "Hello."
Li Yanyu extended his hand to invite you and said, "Let's enter the store."
There were not many customers in the store, and three people sat at a table by the window.
"Xiaoya, if you order a few more dishes, I'm going to give you a big meal. A few days ago, I had a dinner party for his birthday, and he left early. It's not fun."
"There was really something going on at home that day. Didn't I leave after paying the bill? I didn't ask you to eat or drink less."
All three of them had to drive, not drink, but drink.
Li Yanyu and Song Xiaoya ordered first, and when they finished ordering, Bai He was going to order more.
Song Xiaoya said: "Don't order too much. It's just for three people. If you can't finish it, it's too wasteful."
Bai He nodded with a smile and said to the waiter: "Just order these."
Li Yanyu ate very quickly. He was full after eating for more than ten minutes.
"I have something to do, you guys eat slowly, I'll leave first."
After Li Yanyu left, Bai He and Song Xiaoya looked at each other and smiled.
"I heard from my cousin that you are engaged in landscape design. Can I see your work?"
"Can!"
Bai He took out his newly bought iPhone XS Max, logged into the photo album in the cloud, and handed it to Song Xiaoya.
Song Xiaoya took the phone and looked at it carefully. She looked at more than a dozen photos, stared at Bai He for a few times, and asked with a smile: "Are these works designed by you?"
"Yes."
“It’s beautiful.”
"I'm a professional."
"Your job is very interesting and can create beauty."
"Your job is also very interesting, primary school teacher and gardener."
"Can you send me these pictures?"
"Okay. I'll pass it on to you after I get home."
"Thanks!"
"You're welcome."
Song Xiaoya returned the phone to Bai He.
Bai He took two bites of the food and asked for a topic: "What are your usual hobbies?"
"I'm a bit of a homebody. I like to watch TV dramas and stay at home and draw."
"I also follow TV series. I also like painting. My painting skills are not bad."
"I saw your paintings at my cousin's house. They are of very high quality. I hope I can appreciate more of your paintings in the future."
"That's easy to say." Bai He smiled and said, "Actually, I am quite a homebody. When I stay at home, in addition to painting and designing, I also like to clean up my own yard."
"Do you like traveling?"
"I like it. I have been to various famous attractions in Qucheng and some famous attractions in surrounding cities. How about you."
