Chapter 3 .003
The ramen restaurant closes at nine o’clock in the evening, and there are not so many guests after eight o’clock.
When Meng Wan was about to go home, she received a WeChat message from Lawyer Wu, asking her if she would have time to watch a movie tomorrow night.
Meng Wan had a headache. My mother met Lawyer Wu’s aunt first. The elders had a good time and asked the children to add WeChat to each other. Before Meng Wan and Lawyer Wu officially met, we chatted on WeChat for almost two weeks. Lawyer Wu talked wittyly, and Meng Wan had a good impression at first, but he did not expect to be another blind date who minded her career.
Meng Wan doesn’t think it’s possible for Lawyer Wu to change her impression of the ramen restaurant. Even if she wants to continue to associate, she also has a fancy to her appearance. If the two really stabilize, the decent Lawyer Wu will reintroduce her to change her career sooner or later. , In that case, the two really didn’t have the need to continue communicating.
Didn’t my mother convey her meaning to Lawyer Wu’s aunt?
As a beauty who is often pursued, Meng Wan is also very skilled in rejecting others. The gentleman-style lawyer Wu is suitable for courtesy first and then soldiers. She replied politely: The ramen restaurant closes at nine o’clock in the evening, the business is too tired, and she has no energy to go to the movies after she is busy. .
In fact, the boss Meng Wan could leave at any time, but Lawyer Wu couldn’t attract her.
Lawyer Wu: No rest on weekends?
Meng Wan smiled: Do you want to date me?
Lawyer Wu: I thought I was behaving very obviously. I wonder if Ms. Meng is showing her face?
Just as Meng Wan was about to type a word, his left shoulder was heavy, and Xiaoye, the cashier, leaned over, looking at her mobile phone with big eyes flashing. Meng Wan didn’t mind, and replied under Xiaoye’s peeping screen: I’m sorry, I don’t think we are suitable.
“So cruel?” Xiaoye said admiringly. She had seen a photo of Lawyer Wu. He was a handsome and charming man with a gentle and defeated type.
Meng Wan shrugged, dealing with male suitors, either ruthlessly or forbearing. Meng Wan found it troublesome. For those who were not suitable, the faster he would break, the more worry-free.
Attorney Wu returned after a few seconds: What is wrong with Miss Meng’s appetite?
Xiaoye secretly laughed, and Meng Wan also laughed, making an analogy: Ramen restaurant and western restaurant are incompatible with each other.
Lawyer Wu: I see.
Meng Wan didn’t reply anymore and put down the phone.
Xiaoye put his chin on and asked her: “The boss doesn’t like western food lawyers, and he doesn’t like Ramen Professor Gao, then what do you want to find? Hotpot guy?”
Meng Wan has no answer. In high school, there were boys who pursued her. Meng Wan’s academic performance was poor. In order to avoid failing to pass the exams in ordinary colleges, she worked hard every day to review, so she didn’t have time to fall in love. I have plenty of college time and time to fall in love, but Meng Wan’s luck is relatively poor. I haven’t met a man who can make her heart beat faster for four years, and then I’ve been single until now.
“Wait, I’m not in a hurry anyway.”
After changing his clothes, Meng Wan greeted the employees and walked out of the ramen restaurant with his bags.
Jiangcheng is very beautiful. There are many kinds of camphor on both sides of the road. The bright lights flicker through the leaves. Students come in and out at the Z gate opposite, and there are no shortage of sweet and loving couples. Z University is the best university in Jiangcheng. From the students who have eaten at the ramen restaurant, Meng Wan can not only feel the youthful vigor of college students, but also slightly feel the learning atmosphere of Z University.
Meng Wan had poor grades when he was studying, and now he realizes the charm of a good university.
With emotion, Meng Wan sent a message to his cousin who is about to enter the third year of high school: study hard, try hard to take the Z degree, and my sister will ask you to eat ramen!
Young Master Meng Family: Why didn’t you take the exam yourself when you were so good?
Meng Wan returned three big smiling faces, let alone, as a person over here to urge high school children to study, it feels really cool!
After buying some fruit in the fruit shop, Meng Wan went back to the community. When he got upstairs, Meng Wan found that a good pin was posted on his door, and there was a post-it note next to it. The handwriting was clear and juan: “Thank you.” ”
Meng Wan looked at the door of Lu’s family who had changed the fingerprint lock on the opposite side. He was very speechless. As for a pin, did he return it on purpose?
.
The next day Lu Chaoqing returned to Jiangcheng, he started to work at Z University.
The Department of Physics of Z University has several branches. Before Lu Chaoqing came, Professor Gao was the only professor specializing in astrophysics at Z University. Therefore, Lu Chaoqing’s office was arranged next to Professor Gao. The dean of the Physics Department also smiled and asked Professor Gao to bring more. Lu Chaoqing is familiar with the campus.
The thirty-two-year-old Professor Gao knew Lu Chaoqing at first sight. Before Lu Chaoqing returned to China, Professor Gao had read several academic papers by Lu Chaoqing. The students expected the competition between the two powerhouses and the two young people did not succeed. Professor Gao enthusiastically took Lu Chaoqing and strolled around the teaching building. His friendly smile was like a spring breeze and shocked a group of science students.
“I have a class today, and I will have lunch together in a while!”
Looking at the time, Professor Gao smiled and patted Lu Chaoqing on the shoulder, and finally he was accompanied by a colleague who studied celestial bodies.
Lu Chaoqing nodded.
He is not very used to socializing with people, but Professor Gao’s enthusiasm is not offensive.
For lunch, the two professors ate in the Z cafeteria. There is a window dedicated to ramen beside the queue window.
The line was boring, and the master ramen’s unique performance attracted Lu Chaoqing’s attention. He eats Western food abroad.
Seeing him staring at the ramen master, Professor Gao couldn’t help but push the frame, and said in a low voice: “The ramen here is generally tasteful, and there is a ramen restaurant outside the school that is very delicious. I will take you there in the evening.”
Lu Chaoqing has no special pursuit of food, and since the new colleague tried his best to recommend it, he agreed.
Professor Gao lowered his head and smiled, but he was a little shy.
Lu Chaoqing:…
Just eat ramen, why is he shy?
At around six o’clock in the evening, Professor Gao and Lu Chaoqing walked out of Z University together, crossed the road, and arrived outside the Meng Laotou Ramen Restaurant.
Lu Chaoqing glanced at the sign and walked in behind Professor Gao.
The cool breeze from the air conditioner rushed towards you, instantly dissipating the heat in the street.
“Professor Gao is here.” Xiaoye greeted with a smile, showing eight neat white teeth.
Professor Gao was calm on campus, pushing his glasses nervously, and took the opportunity to look at the woman next to Xiaoye.
Meng Wan is watching a drama and is attentive.
She wore a work uniform, a white shirt with the cute and amiable “Old Man Meng” logo of a ramen shop, and her long hair was combed into a simple ponytail, full of vigor. Every time Professor Gao saw her, a bunch of pink bubbles appeared on the frame, and the word “cute” appeared on each bubble.
But he didn’t dare to look more, and took Lu Chaoqing to the old position he was accustomed to sitting in.
“Boss, that guy is so handsome!”
The two walked away, Xiaoye put away his signature smile, and excitedly pushed Meng Wan’s arm.
Meng Wan also likes to watch handsome guys. He immediately pressed the pause button and followed Xiaoye’s fingers into the shop. As a result, he first saw Professor Gao. Professor Gao happened to be watching Meng Wan too. At this time, when Meng Wan turned his head, Professor Gao immediately lowered his head as if he had seen a ghost. The only difference was that his face turned pale when he saw a ghost, and his face turned red.
Lu Chaoqing had just ordered a signature beef ramen. When he looked up and saw Professor Gao’s sudden illness, he was stunned: “Are you okay?”
Professor Gao shook his head and secretly glanced at the cash register.
Lu Chaoqing subconsciously turned and looked out.
Just now he sat with his back to Meng Wan. Meng Wan only saw a tall figure in a gray shirt. Now when Lu Chaoqing turned his head, Meng Wan’s eyes widened.
Lu Chaoqing saw Meng Wan when he first entered the door, and silently gave Meng Wan a “slacking off work” comment. Now seeing Meng Wan and the female colleague next to him staring at him with an unpredictable expression, Lu Chaoqing turned indifferently. Went back.
“It’s so cold.” Xiaoye whispered to share with Meng Wan the look of the handsome guy.
Meng Wan had already ended in surprise, did not comment on anything, and continued to watch the show.
Professor Gao’s face finally returned to normal, and then he started a trip to the ramen restaurant to sneak a peek at Meng Wan.
Lu Chaoqing looked at him several times.
Professor Gao just didn’t dare to strike up a conversation with Meng Wan, but he didn’t mind sharing his secrets with colleagues, and quietly introduced to Lu Chaoqing: “The one watching the show is the owner of this ramen restaurant. He opened his own shop only on the 25th of this year. Girls nowadays are getting better and better.”
Lu Chaoqing: “We have money at home.”
Professor Gao also has this kind of speculation, but this is not the point, and continues to praise Mengwan: “She designed the decoration of the store.”
Lu Chaoqing looked around and found nothing special about the decoration here. As long as it looks good, it can attract college students.
Withdrawing his gaze, Lu Chaoqing suddenly realized that Professor Gao’s expression had changed again, from an idiot to a stiff and complicated one.
Lu Chaoqing turned his head again and saw that there was a mature man in a suit in front of the front desk, with one hand on the counter in front of Meng Wan, smiling and talking with Meng Wan, the Rolex surface on his wrist reflected brightly under the light. Light.
“I heard that she was going on a blind date with a lawyer. It should be this person.” Professor Gao pursed his lips, not to mention that he almost didn’t say a word when he came to the ramen restaurant, but Professor Gao collected all the gossip that should be collected promptly and accurately. .
Lu Chaoqing was not interested in Meng Wan’s blind date, so he happened to face him. He picked up his chopsticks and ate slowly.
“Miss Meng doesn’t seem to be busy at all.”
At the front desk, Lawyer Wu glanced at Meng Wan’s laptop screen, laughing and teasing.
He has the appearance of a gentle scum. With such a smile, Xiaoye has been killed in action, and he almost took a secret photo with his mobile phone.
Meng Wan closed his notebook awkwardly and asked him: “Why are you here?”
Attorney Wu’s smile immediately became gentle: “Come and see you, take a meal by the way, maybe after this meal, I will also fall in love with ramen.”
This is a pun, and Meng Wan can only smile and introduce him some of his signature noodles.
“Let’s eat together?” Lawyer Wu looked at her with burning eyes.
Meng Wan laughed: “It’s busy now.”
Attorney Wu expressed his understanding. Finally, when I saw Meng Wan, he went to pick a table inside. By coincidence, he sat behind Lu Chaoqing.
Professor Gao added a lot of chili to the noodles, and the soup was sour!
Lu Chaoqing looked at the calm and confident lawyer Wu, objectively reminding him: “You have no chance of winning.”
Professor Gao bowed his head to eat noodles.
After eating a bowl of noodles, Lu Chaoqing picked up the phone on the table and was about to leave.
Professor Gao didn’t want to leave, but didn’t want to waste his colleagues’ precious time, so he had to go to checkout.
Xiaoye went to the bathroom. Meng Wan saw the two coming over. Out of the friendship of neighbors for many years, she smiled and asked Lu Chaoqing, “Is the ramen delicious?”
Lu Chaoqing nodded, the taste was really good.
Professor Gao looked at Lu Chaoqing suspiciously. Why did Little Cutie never ask him whether ramen is good or not?
“This is my treat. Later, Professor Lu will help me introduce a few more deals.” Meng Wan smiled politely.
Lu Chaoqing didn’t have the idle time: “I’m very busy, let’s check out.”
After speaking, he pointed the phone screen at Meng Wan and motioned her to scan the code.
Meng Wan:…
