Chapter 22: Will Love Come or Not?

Out of the manager's office, Chen Xiao saw his lovely female colleague standing at the door, gently biting her lips, those cute and witty eyes, but with a touch of loss, quietly looking at himself.

"Chen Xiao, are you really leaving?" The cute saleswoman's voice was somewhat sad.

Chen Xiao coughed, sideways avoided the other's eyes, and forced himself to laugh: "Yes, I found a new job, closer to home, and also less work."

The lovely saleswoman squeezed out a smile and said, "Then even if you and I are not colleagues anymore, you should contact more, not as colleagues, but also friends. Don't forget you still owe me a birthday present."

Thinking of his birthday, she gave himself an MP4, Chen Xiao naturally knows the girl's mind, think about it, he quickly copied a number: "This is my phone, you must invite me on your birthday."

When she got the phone number, the saleswoman smiled happily and carefully put it away. She asked, "Chen Xiao, we've been colleague's for more than two months. Don't you know my name yet?"

Chen Xiao was also a little embarrassed --- in the past, his temperament was really cold and he did not like to talk to people: "I only know that everyone calls you Xiao Nuo....................................... I followed, and said that I had never asked your name. It was really impolite of me."

"My name is Ye Xiaonuo." Xiao Nuo smiled sweetly, a pair of small pear eddies on both cheeks: "Don't call me Xiao Nuo in the future. My friends call me Xiaonuo."

"Well, I'll call you Xiaonuo later." Chen Xiaozheng nodded emphatically.

Ye Xiaonuo's eyes just lit up, and she put out hierhand which had been burdened behind her. Her thin palm was holding a package of things. She lowered his voice and said, "Take it, I know you didn't eat when you came to work at this time. I left you two beef burgers. Let this be an invitation to you."

After that, she put the things directly into Chen Xiao's hands, and then turned around and ran into the back of the counter.

When Bai MeiMei was hired on the spot, she stayed for trial work. Chen Xiao left the fast-food restaurant alone, holding two steaming hamburgers in his hand, feeling a little touched.

Looking at the time is still early, he intend to go to the bank first and get his bicycle back first, if possible.

As he was going to the subway station, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang. He picked it up and looked at it.

Uh huh?

This number is recognized by oneself, it is exactly the phone that Heisan left to oneself at the beginning! I dialed this number last night, but the other party hung up impatiently.

"Hello." Chen Xiao's voice immediately became indifferent.

"Chen Xiao?" The other side is still the old man whom he heard last night. His voice is harsh and hoarse, but his voice is not hot and cold. "Whatever you are doing now, I'll give you half an hour and report to me right away."

"Now?" Chen Xiao frowned, the other side's voice was not very polite, even with a commanding tone, which made people very uncomfortable. Chen Xiao was a little unhappy: "Didn't you say last night that you could do it in less than a week?"

"Why so much nonsense!" The voice of the other party is more impatient than Chen Xiao: "Come when you are called. I'm in a hurry now. I need hands! I'll Give you half an hour and come to me at once! Three thousand a month, two meals a day! "

After that, Chen Xiao did not wait for him to speak. He snapped and hung up again.

Chen Xiao is really a little angry - depend! So pull?

But... The monthly salary is 3000, including two meals... For a part-time worker, such treatment is really good enough! ____________

Besides, Chen Xiao's purse bleeds heavily these two days, and there's an extra mouthful to eat at home...

Bite your teeth, for the sake of your job, endure! -

The address is located near the southwest suburb of K city.

Although K city is a big city, the real estate industry has been very hot these years, which makes the house price and land price of K city soar, and there are many newly developed neighborhoods everywhere. However, in the southwestern suburbs, the price of land prices has never been able to rise.

Because in the past few years, the southwestern suburb was an industrial district of K City, where several large local factories were located. In recent years, although in response to the development of the real estate industry, most of these factories have moved farther away. The southwestern suburbs have also undergone a lot of development. Newspapers and TV in the past few years often advocated building a "new urban area", but they have been unable to achieve it. Developers came in batches after batches, building one after another, business districts, communities and so on have made a lot, but it is impossible to gather popularity.

Just because the local people in K city know that the place used to be the industrial plant, although the factories moved away later, God knows if the land there will leave any industrial pollution, although the government has repeatedly refuted rumors to ensure that there is no pollution problem in that land... However, in recent years, no one believed what the news broadcasts said.

Therefore, the southwest suburb has become the famous cold spot of K city... It's cold and clear. Although the beautiful new buildings have been built one after another, most of them are dark at night. Occasionally, the lights of several families are scarce.

The prices of new buildings here have fallen and fallen again, and although they are about 30% cheaper than those in urban areas, there is still little interest in them. There is a famous joke circulating in K city. If anyone takes a driving test and learns to drive, they will run to the southwest suburb for driving practice in the evening. Although you open your car freely, you should never worry about hitting someone, because in the evening, you can throw a grenade in the street, and no one will get hurt.

When Chen Xiao arrived here from downtown, the subway carriages were cold and clear. He left the subway station and looked around. For two minutes, no car passed on the road.

The address in his hand was not difficult to find. Chen Xiao walked for fifteen minutes and found his destination.

Obviously, this is also a rotten "business district". When real estate companies were developing here, newspapers advocated building large business districts every day, but later they all disappeared. The surrounding buildings look beautiful, yet despite being so they are in fact popular. The sun hasn't set yet. Yet it looks cold.

This place is a "pedestrian mall". It's a pity that a big street of seven or eight hundred meters long is baren. Chen Xiao raised his head at a glance and hardly sees any shops open. Most shops and houses are empty. A dull taste.

Walking half a street, Chen Xiao saw only two shops open. One was a red hotel, the other was a cigar shop. This makes Chen Xiao funny. Who would buy such luxuries as wine and cigars in such a place?

To Chen Xiao's surprise, there is also a car wash and repair shop at the intersection - driving the car shop in the commercial pedestrian street? It seems that the shops here must be horribly cheap!

When Chen Xiao passed by, he saw that the car dealership was still in business. A middle-aged man in overalls and smeared with black oil was holding a pair of pliers. He looked at Chen Xiao passing by the door with curious eyes. The corner of his mouth seemed to have a funny smile.

Chen Xiao went to the end of the street and finally found the address.

Is it a coffee shop here? Just a glance at the name of the store shocked Chen Xiao: Ribak.

Um... Does the shopkeeper hate Starbucks?

But the coffee shop's business has gone to the extreme. If, according to common sense, a shop's business is so bad, it should be close to bankruptcy.

But this coffee shop actually has a couplet hanging on the door! ____________

Coffee shop couplets have been very incongruous, more appalling refers to the content of this pair of couplets!

Online: If you want to drink coffee below 200 yuan, please go to another house!

Next couplet: All women who are identified as beautiful by the shopkeeper are exempt from the bill!

Yokohama: Love can't come! ____________

Chen Xiao: "........."

Looking at this arrogant couplet for a while, Chen Xiao sighed and gently pushed open the door. In the dining wind bell, Chen Xiao walked into this cold and quiet shop. Looking at it, there was no table in a big coffee shop.

Behind the counter, an old man in a flowery shirt, with a wooden pipe in his mouth, silvery hair and a thread-bound book in his hand, was squinting at it.

Chen Xiao came to him and stood for five seconds. The old man did not notice anyone in front of him, but his eyes twinkled with light, as if he were intoxicated.

Chen Xiao couldn't help glancing at the book. He couldn't see the title of the book. He only looked at a paragraph:

"... The grandmother laughed and said,'Siemens have a good eye. The family's maiden's name was Pan before she married, and the boudoir's name was Jinlian. She was also from a big family, but her life was not as good as that of Wuda.''________

Chen Xiao couldn't help laughing and greeting politely: "Master, watch the Water Margin?"

Then the old man raised his head, as if he had just seen Chen Xiao, with a dignified and awe-inspiring face, laughed proudly and returned three words:

"Jin Ping Mei!"

Chen Xiao: "..."
