Chapter 125 Blind Date
Chapter 125 Blind Date
Maybe I didn’t know Cui Jinsong before, so even if I might have seen him before, it’s hard for strangers to leave an impression on me.
Now, even though they knew each other and knew that Cui Jinsong lived downstairs from her, Xia Qing didn't have many opportunities to meet Cui Jinsong.
So who did Xia Qing think lived downstairs? Whether she knew him or not really made no difference to her.
For those who have moved to Beijing and rent a house, it is true that no one cares about the strangers living upstairs or downstairs from them. Since that day, Xia Qing has not met Cui Jinsong for a long time.
normal phenomenon.
What she didn't know was that Cui Jinsong had also returned to his hometown during this period.
Mom urged him to go back for a blind date!
Sit in the agreed restaurant.
Cui Jinsong was also helpless. He never expected that one day, as a successful man, he would be forced by his family to go on a blind date.
The girl sitting opposite him was pretty, gentle and talkative. Sometimes Cui Jinsong would say one sentence and the girl would reply with several more.
Cui Jinsong was sometimes too busy to answer the phone, but the girl didn't show any impatience.
Of course, the purpose of getting girls like this is very clear.
"Did you hear from Aunt Xing that you are traveling back and forth between the two places now? Do you have a house in Beijing?" In fact, the girl may know that he doesn't have one. After all, his situation should be clearly explained by the introducer.
"No, I'm currently renting a house in Beijing." Cui Jinsong said truthfully.
"Will you buy a house in Beijing?" the girl continued to ask.
"I'm not considering it for now. Our headquarters is in this city, and my family is here too." Cui Jinsong actually bought a two-bedroom apartment in southern Beijing two years ago, originally intending to use it as his own residence during his business trips. However, he never found the time to renovate it, so he's still living in the apartment he rented.
When faced with girls' questions, he wanted to see what they really wanted to do.
really.
"Auntie said that your company is very big and your family is well-off in this city. Why don't you buy an apartment in Beijing? It could be a good investment."
"Are you working in Beijing?"
"Yeah, I'm in Beijing."
Cui Jinsong continued to ask her: "Do you hope that your significant other will have a house and a car in Beijing? Do you have any other requirements?"
"Actually, I don't think a house and a car are particularly demanding. They're just the basics for starting a family. If you don't even have one, then there's no point in starting a family. Men think it's nothing, but why should a woman marry and suffer all the hardships and bear children for him? If he can't even provide for the most basic needs, both the wife and the children will suffer. I don't have any special requirements. I just hope to not have to worry about food, clothing, housing, and transportation."
"Indeed, a man's responsibility is to provide his partner with food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, and women should also be treated well." This is one of the reasons Cui Jinsong chose to build a career before starting a family. He also believes that men should have a certain financial foundation. Talking about love without considering finances is unrealistic, and the relationship will not be stable. Life is about the daily necessities of life. Money isn't everything, but it can solve a large number of problems.
"Let's order first and talk while we eat." The girl has a good personality. He thinks it's time for him to get married and start a family, so it's not bad to try dating her.
The girl is currently quite satisfied with Cui Jinsong. Apart from his age, everything else about him is good. She is quite satisfied with his career and family.
As for the house and car, she felt it was not a good idea to talk about it in detail now. She would wait until she got closer to him. Based on their relationship, she would definitely be able to convince him to buy a house in Beijing.
If she made the request now, she was afraid that he would be disgusted, so she had to take it slow and step by step. She was not in a hurry.
The two had a meal together and added each other as friends. Cui Jinsong would still be in charge of the work at the base camp for a while, but the girl still had to go back to work.
So after the two of them separated from this gathering, they have been communicating online.
Cui Jinsong's mother was so happy that she laughed in her dreams when she learned that her son had finally come to his senses. Previously, her son had never talked about his girlfriend, and she once thought that he didn't like girls because he had few female friends since he was a child.
Now that he is finally willing to contact her, she feels great and is very satisfied.
Cui Jinsong feels that his work at the headquarters is going quite smoothly. The company's system, regulations and personnel are very stable, and a model of employee autonomy has been formed. Besides, he feels at ease with his deputy in charge.
It's mainly in Beijing. If we want to gain a foothold in the capital, we still need to work harder. There are too many large enterprises in the capital and the competition is fierce. If we don't make progress, it means we are regressing.
I'll stay here for a week and go back to Beijing next week.
During these days at home, since his mother was finally in a good mood, he also enjoyed the maternal love that he had been away from for a long time.
Before leaving, his mother also told him to be more proactive, chat with girls more and go on dates.
He felt funny and helpless.
This time I drove back, so I drove to Beijing again.
His mother brought him some homemade food and asked him to take it with him.
The child travels thousands of miles and the mother is worried.
He drove north for nearly eight hours and stopped at a service area to rest and eat.
The food in the service area is just like that, there is nothing much to eat, just a couple of bites.
Sitting in the car and wanting to take a nap.
I couldn't sleep, so I picked up my phone to see if there was any news.
I checked the work group and saw nothing important, so I just checked my Moments.
When he saw a post on WeChat Moments, his fingers paused. He didn't know why, but maybe he was curious and wanted to take a peek.
Xia Qing posted a status on the weekend.
I went out with friends on the weekend, two girls and one boy.
Various funny photos, eating, shopping, he found that she looked smaller when she was not wearing formal clothes. Of course, the main reason was that he was getting old.
Looking at her bright smile, he also felt a little happy unconsciously.
There are some likes in the comments below.
They are all acquaintances in the same circle, including those from the client and other system manufacturers, and they all know each other.
The comments are also very interesting.
In fact, she can be very humorous, and may have had a bad impression of him, so the few times they had contact were not so pleasant.
He also liked the post but did not comment.
After flipping through the photos again, he saw the exquisite selfie of the girl he was going on a blind date with. He smiled, put down his phone and continued on his way.
Try to arrive in Beijing early so as not to catch the afternoon rush hour.
Arrived in Beijing.
Cui Jinsong thought that he would take the high-speed rail back next time, which would be convenient and fast.
Arrived at the residence.
He was very tired, so he went into the house, took off his coat and wanted to take a nap.
Not long after, I heard noises coming from the corridor and upstairs.
He thought the upstairs tenants were leaving get off work, and then there were bursts of noise. The old residential complex was not tall, and there were not many residents. The only drawback was that the sound insulation was very poor.
It's very noisy during rush hour. After the ping-pong sounds upstairs die down, there's another round of bang-bang sounds.
Xia Qing's roommate ate too much at night and wanted to jump rope. Although he used a mat, the vibration noise was still quite loud.
Sure enough, there was a knock on the door soon and Xia Qing went to open it.
"You..." This time it was Cui Jinsong who was stunned.
Last time he knew she lived on the floor above him, but he didn't know which floor it was. He didn't expect it to be the floor right above him.
I felt awkward for a moment.
