The number one favorite wedding in history. Good morning, Captain - Chapter 217
The contract signing ceremony was very simple. The secretary presented the paper contract. Both parties’representatives had to sign the paper contract and put their fingerprints on it.
Xu Shenshen looked at her watch repeatedly. It was already 10:30 in the morning. There was still an hour and a half before 12:00 in the morning. If she took a taxi to the long-distance bus station now, she should still be able to make it. It was just that the matter here had not been completely settled yet She could not leave so easily.
Lu Xiangru saw her every move. From her expression, it seemed that she was in a hurry. He could not let her get her way.
“Mr. Jin, today we officially have a cooperative relationship with Mr. Jin. How about… ” his gaze seemed to drift to her side. Xu Shenshen pursed her lips and read a meaningful smile from his eyes.
“CEO LU is right. If CEO LU is so kind, why don’t you bring this beautiful Miss Xu to my party tomorrow morning? ” Mr. Jin was preparing to hold a grand celebration ceremony at the resort. The delicacies at the party.. Were all provided by the SSXR group.
“PA! ” The lighter in his hand suddenly lit up. Lu Xiangru took out a cigarette from his pocket and held it in his mouth. A charming smile appeared in his eyes. “It is difficult to decline your kind offer. I will definitely not let you down. I believe that Miss Xu is no exception! ”

Xu Shenshen, who was standing at the side, glared at him with gritted teeth
She had already decided to leave. What right did he have to take the initiative to arrange some things for her. Her boss had never arranged a banquet for her. What was he doing! !
Mr. Jin reached out his hand and handed it to her. He praised, “Miss Xu, I hope you will do me the honor. Your translation is very good! ”
Xu shenshen quickly stood up and smiled. “Thank you, Mr. Jin, for your praise. I will definitely continue to work hard and serve a certain customer seriously. ”
“Not bad. Young people should have this kind of concept in their hearts. ”
Xu Shenshen thought, “the customer is only secondary. Money is the most important thing. “.
……
After sending the Korean away, Xu Shenshen planned to leave city s and return to city B. Her mission here was considered to be over. As for the party, she was not interested and did not have time to waste on it.
As if he could see that she was about to leave, he suddenly said concisely, “I’ve already gotten your boss’s permission to let you stay for a few more days. As for your salary, he won’t take a penny less from you. ”
“You… ” why did he not get her permission for this kind of thing?
“You can get money even if you don’t do anything, isn’t that good? ” He spread his hands and flicked the ashes into the ashtray. He looked at her with a deep and complicated gaze.
This meant that she would have to stay in s city for a few more days. She had never known that this man was so difficult to deal with. She thought that she would be able to leave unscathed after finishing her work, but now it seemed that it was impossible.
“Lu Xiangru, what are you trying to do? It’s already impossible between us. Why are you still pestering me? ” She threw her bag on the Sofa and rolled up her sleeves, looking very unhappy.
Did she see through all of this He did use all sorts of reasons to make her stay because he was reluctant to let her leave. His goal was to make her fall in love with him.
The corners of his mouth curled up in a sexy arc. He threw away the cigarette butt, shook off the cigarette smell on his body, and got up to walk towards her.
She raised her head and glared at him. He also lowered his head to look at her, but not to stare, but to admire.
“Let’s go take a look at the coke bottle buried under the tree. ” He suddenly held her hand, opened the office door, and pulled her out.
Returning to the place from before, Xu Shenshen’s heart was deeply touched. He had shoveled this place into a flat ground. Only this tree had been preserved.
He squatted down and placed one hand on his leg. He pointed at the bottom of the tree with the other hand and said with a faint smile, “I wonder if the coke bottle is still there? Xu Shenshen, how about we make a bet? ”
Xu Shenshen touched the tree trunk with one hand and walked around the big tree. It had been six years. The coke bottle must have disappeared long ago, or it had been washed away by the rain. There was no need to make a bet at all.
She lowered her head and watched his every move. He seemed to be recalling something. He held a branch in his hand, and his eyes flickered.
“Xu Shenshen, do you think the coke bottle is still there? ”
“It must… be gone! ” She seemed to mention it unintentionally …
But he had a different idea. Maybe the coke bottle was still there.
“Then let’s make a bet. If the coke bottle is still there, you will stay by my side in the future. If the coke bottle is gone, I will not force you to do anything you don’t like. ” He raised his head and smiled gently at her.
She almost lost herself in the gentleness that he had woven. He was good-looking, had a prominent family background, and was capable. Logically speaking, a woman would easily fall in love with him, but she could not easily fall in love with him. The reason was very simple. He was too dazzling. If she stood with him, she would feel inferior.
“You said it yourself. If the coke bottle is no longer around, you will let me go. You are not allowed to harass me in the future! ” For the sake of freedom, she was willing to give it her all.
He smiled and said, “okay. ”
“Come and help me dig. ” He handed her a stone and asked her to dig together.
Xu Shenshen was actually not very confident. If the coke bottle was still there, did that mean that she would never be able to escape from this man?
Lu Xiangru leaned closer to her, but he actually did not have any confidence.
“Xu Shenshen, if the coke bottle is really gone, then it can only mean that it has been too long and the coke bottle has been corroded! ” He found an excuse to comfort himself and also wanted to liven up the atmosphere.
She pulled back her thoughts and smiled, “Lu Xiangru, you are actually quite cute! ”
Cute His temperament didn’t seem to match cute, did it?
“Is that a compliment? ” He scratched it a few times and was a little discouraged. He threw the branch on the ground and stood up with a smile. “maybe it’s really gone! ”
Xu Shenshen also heaved a sigh of relief. She stood up and stretched out her hand to say to him, “Lu Xiangru, thank you! ”
“thank me for what? ” He grabbed her hand.
“A lot. That summer when I was 17 years old, you appeared in front of me like a savior. You helped me solve my debt problem and taught me a lot of things. “What you can’t have may not be the best. The fate between you and I ended 17 years ago. Now, the gap between our identities is even greater. “I’m just an ordinary translator. The things I touch every day may seem ordinary to you, but in my opinion, every job has its value. “You’re a high and mighty CEO. The things you touch every day may be something I’ll never understand. “This is the difference between us. One day, one day, we’ll never meet. ”
When she said this, his eyes never left her face. He never knew that she had thought so much.
“Xu Shenshen, it takes a lot of courage to like someone. Not everyone has the courage to say the words I like you. Some love doesn’t need to be said with words. Just experience it with your heart. ” He narrowed his long and narrow eyes, his expression very complicated.
Was He expressing his love for her?
“CEO Lu, this is too serious! Between us… there may not be the love you mentioned. It’s just a cooperative relationship. My feelings for you are nothing but gratitude. ” She chose to avoid the truth She was afraid of getting hurt, so she did not want to be involved with him. Please forgive her cowardice. She could do anything for money, but she could not choose to give up what she had now …
Lu Xiangru was deeply hurt by her words. This was the first time he confessed to a woman, but she rejected him mercilessly. He felt very frustrated.
It turned out that the most difficult thing was not how to run a company, but how to find a true love.
“Xu Shenshen, is this your truth? ” He had never been so desperate.
She knew that she had hurt him, but she acted as if nothing had happened and continued to rub salt on his wound. “Yes, in my eyes, other than money, everything else is just accessories. Are you willing to be my accessories? ”
He clenched his hands into fists and kicked away the tree branch under his feet. His expression was ugly, and he turned around and walked away without looking back.
Xu Shenshen looked at his stiff back and squatted on the ground. She hit the ground with a stone and suddenly stopped. She threw down the stone and took out the coke bottle that was buried under the ground. She was so happy that she cried But she knew that some things couldn’t be saved.
The coke bottle was still there. She held it in her hand and looked at Lu Xiangru, who had already gone far away. Her heart ached.
She thought that they were no longer fated. She didn’t expect that the coke bottle had been buried under the tree for so many years and hadn’t been washed away by the rain. Did this mean that they were really fated.
…
After returning to B city, Xu Shenshen sorted out some emotions that she shouldn’t have and continued to work. This continued for a week until one night when she returned home.
Lin rou and Lin Wei were watching TV in the living room. The two of them were discussing something, and their voices were very soft. The sound of her closing the door startled them. They turned back to look at her and smiled. “Shenshen, you’re back? Come over and sit. ”
Xu Shenshen didn’t understand. She changed into her slippers and walked in front of them.
“Mom, do you need me for something? ”
Lin Rou took her hand and patted it twice with a smile.
“Shenshen, mom told you that you’re already twenty-three years old this year, right? ”
So what if you’re twenty-three years old Seeing her mom’s strange smile, she felt that something was wrong.
“Mom, you’re not trying to introduce me to someone, right? Come on, I don’t have time to date right now. Stop fooling around. ” She had just gotten rid of that troublesome person, Lu Xiangru, so she didn’t want to get involved with other men.
Lin rou pulled a straight face, “what are you talking about? What’s the most important thing in a woman’s life? Find a reliable man to marry. You’re already twenty-three years old, and it just so happens… after a few more years of marriage, you’ll be a leftover woman! ” Lin Rou said righteously …
Lin Wei followed up and advised, “Shen Shen, you’re right to listen to us. You’re already twenty-three years old, and you’re not considered young. If you continue to drag this on, it won’t be good for you! You still need to pick a good time to sell a pig, let alone get married! ”
She pulled at her hair, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that these two had already planned it out, and were just waiting to send her out?
“Do you guys really hate me staying in this house? Why don’t I move out, and I’ll go live outside by myself, alright! ” She hated so-called blind dates the most. The men who came for blind dates were either previously in a relationship, or short and poor with no partner. No matter which one it was, she couldn’t accept it.
Seeing her daughter so stubborn, Lin rou pounded her chest and complained, “why is my life so hard? My daughter doesn’t understand me. Are you waiting for me to die before you’re willing to get married? ”
“MOM… stop complaining! ”
“You’re really unfilial. If your father were still alive, he would definitely be angered to death by you! ”
Lin Wei pulled his sister and tried to persuade her, “Shenshen, do you want your mother to get sick from anger? Isn’t it just letting you meet a blind date? Is it that difficult? ”
Xu Shenshen took a deep breath and made a stop sign. She knew that if she didn’t agree to it, they would definitely use other methods.
“Alright, stop acting. I’ll go meet him. But just because I’m going to meet him doesn’t mean that I’ll accept him. So don’t have too much hope. ” She rubbed her forehead with a headache and turned to go upstairs.
Lin rou and Lin Wei clapped their hands excitedly. The other party was so outstanding that she couldn’t refuse.
After finishing what she was doing, Xu Shenshen looked at the watch on her wrist. There was still half an hour before the agreed time. She threw the documents on the desk and placed her hands on her hips.
MIC was holding a glass of water and happened to pass by her. He stopped and looked at her. “What’s wrong? You don’t look well. ”
“Nothing. I heard that the boss is sending you on a business trip? ” She really wanted him to give her this opportunity. If she went abroad, she wouldn’t have to face her mother and uncle’s forced marriage.
“there is such a thing. I’ve been staying in China recently and don’t want to go on a business trip. It’s tiring and annoying. ” MIC shrugged, indicating that he would rather stay in China.
Her eyes lit up and she quickly suggested, “why don’t we change? I’ll go on a business trip for you, and you’ll help me deal with my work in China? ”
MIC looked at her. “What? You want to take the opportunity to travel? ”
“Hehe, you’ve already seen through all of this, okay? ” She blinked her beautiful eyes, trying to get him to give up this opportunity to her.
He and she were part of the same batch of old employees who had come in. Although the two of them did not usually communicate much, their relationship was still pretty good.
He was also willing to be the beauty of an adult.
“okay, but you have to tell the boss about this. ” He indicated that he could accept staying in China or going abroad.
“Okay. ” She was so excited that she almost jumped up.
She packed her things happily and was ready to deal with the blind date later.
According to the agreed time and place, she drove the car to a restaurant, turned off the engine, picked up the briefcase on the car seat, and got out of the car.
She didn’t even have time to change out of her business attire. She planned to meet the man in this style.
Pushing open the glass door, she saw the blind date sitting opposite her from afar. He was not bad looking, and he was dressed very well. He was in a suit and tie.
She didn’t know how her mother and uncle met such a high-class man.
She shook off the thoughts in her mind that she should not have, and strode towards the dining table.
“Hello, I’m Xu Shenshen. Are You Zhou Jian? ”
The man raised his head and nodded at her. Just like his name, he gave off a very cold feeling.
“sit down. ” He sized her up for a moment, and after a long time, he finally said two words, short and powerful.
Xu Shenshen was thinking, can you not be so cold? Is there a need to be so serious when we meet for the first time?
“Let me introduce myself first. My name is Zhou Jian. I’m 28 years old this year, probably a few years older than you. I just returned from military service. This is also the reason why I came on a blind date. It’s not that I can’t find a partner, but I didn’t have the time to find a partner previously. “I’ve already heard about your situation over there. You’re 23 years old. You work in a large-scale enterprise as a translator. “I feel that your conditions are quite compatible with mine. I just want to find a woman who is more independent in her life. “I wonder how your first impression of me is after I’ve said so much? ” The man picked up a cup of tea He took a sip and raised his sharp eyes to look at her.
Xu Shenshen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This man was the most amazing person she had ever met. Did he say so much to prove how outstanding he was?
“You want to hear the truth? ” She was not afraid of offending the man in front of her. Anyway, he spoke very straightforwardly, so she did not need to beat around the Bush with him. They were all adults. It would be better for everyone if some things were said out loud.
“Yes. ” He nodded.
She looked into his eyes and told him word by word “My first impression of you is not very good. Moreover, I am only 23 years old, and you are five years older than me. My criteria for choosing a spouse is that the man must be between 23 and 25 years old, and he must be at least 1.85 meters tall. The money he earns must be three times that of me. May I ask how much your monthly salary is now? ”
“around 10,000 yuan! ”
“I’m sorry to tell you that you don’t meet my requirements. You’re at most 1.81 meters tall, and your income is not as high as mine. As for your age, it’s also beyond my choice of spouse. ” Xu Shenshen was even more awesome than him These words made Zhou Jian’s neck turn red with anger.
“You’re such a realistic woman! ” This was the first time Zhou Jian had met such an awesome woman. In fact, his monthly salary was not high, but his family was prominent. Even if he did not work, he could still support himself and his wife.
“If I explain all this clearly, then you’ll understand me better, right? ” She picked up her bag and was not in the mood to sit down and chat with him because he did not meet her standards at all.
Zhou Jian suddenly said, “Miss Xu, what’s your phone number? ”
“Huh? ” What did this man want to do Xu Shenshen frowned.
“I think you’re really suitable for me. You can consider me. Height and age are actually not important. It’s true that we can live together. ” He smiled at her.
Actually, what he said was right. Finding a man was not for money, but for two people to be together for life. Age, height, and income were only secondary. The most important thing was that the other party loved her and was willing to pay for her.
“Have you ever been in love? ”
“No… ”
A very firm answer also determined whether she was willing to give him her number.
