47. Foodies?store owner?Interview with Tom

"Well, Senior Guo, actually, when I called you this time, I really wanted to ask you for help..."

Jian Xiaoqi was a little embarrassed to be guessed at once, but the matter couldn't be delayed, so after struggling for a while, she gritted her teeth and said it out.Unexpectedly, Guo Linchen just thought for a while, and he had the answer.

"I happen to know some of the kind of people you're looking for, and one of them is Tom, who I think may best meet your requirements." Then, Guo Linchen told her some information about Tom, and let her decide for herself.

"Tom was originally an American, and since he came to China at the age of 20, he has been very keen on Chinese food. After he was 22, he basically settled in the town of W. Now it has been ten years. Achieved..."

Knowing that the people she recruited to interview must be typical, Guo Linchen specially analyzed it for her.Looking at it this way, this man named Tom is indeed the type she is looking for!
"that is really good!"

Jian Xiaoqi was very moved, what he said was really important to a rookie like her!In a moment of excitement, I vomited out all the worries that were suppressed in my stomach.

"I was still worried that I would not be able to complete this interview alone. I never expected you to help me. Now I feel relieved!"

She didn't intend to complain, but Guo Linchen listened carefully to what she said, and immediately asked, "Are you interviewing alone? Is there no one else?" In fact, his brows were already slightly frowned.

Obviously, such an interview was done by a newcomer alone, which is unusual no matter how you look at it.He began to think, is it the same for her usual internship?

"Uh……"

Jian Xiaoqi was startled by the question, only to realize that she had slipped her tongue, and was about to explain, but then she thought again, anyway, this matter is not her own idea, so it doesn't matter if I say it.God testifies!She didn't add any embellishments, she was telling the truth. As for how Guo Linchen misunderstood, that's not her business!
Every time Jian Xiaoqi said something, Guo Linchen's frown deepened. After a long while, when she finished speaking, he also fell silent.

"Is your internship always like this?" Guo Linchen's complexion changed. He recommended her to Hua Lin at the beginning, but he didn't ask about specific things later. He thought it would be good to have an acquaintance to take care of her.Now it seems that the facts are not what you think?
Jian Xiaoqi didn't know what he would think. After a while, he heard a sigh from the other end, and Guo Xuechang said in a slightly apologetic voice: "I'm sorry, it seems that I didn't think carefully before, but I made you feel wronged. Don't worry. , I will deal with these matters later, you can rest assured to prepare for the interview..."

Jian Xiaoqi nodded silently.

Not a while after hanging up the phone, Guo Linchen called again, told her the time and place Tom had made appointment, and finally asked her with concern, "Do you want me to pick you up?"

How could Jian Xiaoqi bother him with such a trivial matter?Immediately shook his head and rejected his kindness: "No, no, no, just have the address, I can go there by myself!"

Guo Linchen saw that she was sincere, so he gave up trying to persuade her, and only told her: "Okay, then you should pay attention to safety on the road." How dare Jian Xiaoqi not answer?

When she hung up the phone again, Jian Xiaoqi let out a long breath. Thinking back to the senior's tone just now, she murmured in her heart: Looking back, he shouldn't have something to say to Hua Lin, right?

Well, to be honest, she was kind of gloating.Who told Hua Lin to always make trouble for herself?If this time, if it were her favorite object, the effect would be different, wouldn't it?
"Hey, this is 'one thing drops one thing'!" Jian Xiaoqi giggled, really happy!

The next day, Jian Xiaoqi woke up early in order not to be late.Unexpectedly, this town of W, which seems to have few people, is actually jammed in traffic!

"Oh my god, you won't be scolded by your seniors for being late, right? Also, I hope that God Tom won't turn his back and leave as soon as he gets angry..."

W town is vast and sparsely populated. Jian Xiaoqi sat in the car and almost traveled through the entire town, but she still hasn't reached her destination yet.She repeatedly confirmed with the driver that the route was correct, and then called the senior to inquire about the situation.In this way, after tossing all the way, she finally arrived!
"call--"

Breathing out a turbid breath, Jian Xiaoqi wiped off the sweat profusely on his head, and suddenly felt relieved all over.First, I sorted out my emotions on the side, then took out a small notebook, glanced at the questions that were ready to be used, and memorized them in my heart.After confirming that you are fully prepared, you walk in.

"Taste Vientiane?"

When she saw the name of this restaurant, she couldn't help but read it. She was a little curious, but she didn't stop, and quickly walked in.If we were just attracted by the name of the restaurant, Jian Xiaoqi couldn't move his eyes when he walked in now!

"Wow--"

She was surrounded by restaurants of various styles, and she couldn't help being amazed at the moment.The antique style in front of me not only has traditional elements in it, but also has the unique exotic style of the border.If there weren't tables and chairs here, she would have wondered if she had walked into the "Former Residence of XX"!

She stood at the door, looked around, and soon found that in the innermost quiet corner by the window, Guo Xuechang was drinking tea with a smile on his face, and beside him was a foreign man with blond hair and blue eyes.

This is Tom?Jian Xiaoqi couldn't help taking a few more glances.

At this moment, Guo Linchen also spotted her, and waved to her from the air, "Xiao Qi, this way—"

Jian Xiaoqi trotted over, Guo Linchen stood up, greeted her with a smile, and introduced the people around her: "Let me introduce, this is my college junior, who is now working in W Town TV Station. Xiaoqi, this is what I told you, Tom is also the owner of this store!"

As early as when Jian Xiaoqi stepped into the gate, Tom had noticed this petite and bright Chinese beauty. Seeing that she was the person Chen wanted to introduce to him, his eyes lit up.As soon as his friend opened his mouth, he stood up. With a height of nearly 1 meters, Jian Xiaoqi needed to look up.

He stretched out his hand like a gentleman, smiled slightly, his blue eyes surged like sea water, "Hi, beautiful reporter—"

Jian Xiaoqi was debating whether to say hello in English, but Tom came to speak pure Chinese with a friendly face.She was startled, and replied almost instinctively: "Hello—"

She was slightly surprised, but Tom could speak Chinese so fluently, which made her feel good.In addition, the other person is handsome, and I think this international friend is even more good!
"Okay, don't be too polite, everyone, sit down!"

Guo Linchen glanced at the kindness in Tom's eyes, then glanced at Jian Xiaoqi who was unaware, smiled helplessly, changed the focus to customers, and beckoned them to sit down.After a brief chat, Jian Xiaoqi opened her mouth in surprise when she learned that this distinctive store was actually opened by Tom.

"Tom, are you really amazing? I only heard from your seniors that you are amazing, but I didn't know how awesome you are! Hey, you are really..."

When Jian Xiaoqi praised someone, her eyes glowed and her face was full of radiance, she knew it was from the heart, so she didn't make people feel disgusted. Although Tom has long learned to be humble, he is still really happy when someone praises him so much.

"Do you think so? That's really my honor..." Although Tom is already 30 years old, but he still smiles like a big boy, Jian Xiaoqi's eyes are almost dazzled by him, and he squinted Focus on emotion.

"Seven, I heard from Chen that your program this time is really good! Without it, I probably wouldn't be able to get to know you, and that would be a pity..."

She reluctantly admitted the previous sentence, but the latter sentence?Jian Xiaoqi raised her head, glanced at him suspiciously, and then looked at Senior Guo at the side.Seeing that although he looked helpless, he didn't express anything, so he felt that he might be suspicious, so he withdrew his thoughts.

"Tom, Senior Guo, did you know each other before?"

After talking for a while, when the questions that should be asked were almost finished, Jian Xiaoqi watched the interaction between the two, and asked after a thought.

"Wow, did you see that too?" Tom looked at her in surprise, then looked at his friend proudly, stretched out his arm and put it on his shoulder, like two brothers, "I and Chen, we have known each other for eight years!"

"Eight years?" Jian Xiaoqi opened her mouth wide, looked at the two, and finally fell on Guo Linchen, "I didn't expect Senior Guo to know Tom so early?"

At that time, Guo Xuechang was only about 20 years old, right?She snapped her fingers and thought about it, the relationship between the two should be strong enough!
With this level of relationship, and Tom has a good impression of Jian Xiaoqi, so this interview eventually turned into a similar conversation.Sometimes, Tom would even stop and ask for her opinion, and Guo Linchen would answer her occasionally, which really flattered her!
After the interview, it was time for lunch. Tom stood up and enthusiastically left the two of them for a light meal.Hearing him talk about food all morning, Jian Xiaoqi was already hungry, so it's not hypocritical for him to invite him now.

The inquiring person looked at Senior Guo, saw him nodding, and responded with a smile: "That's good, we're not welcome!"

Tom immediately smiled proudly: "You're welcome, I'll be angry if you don't agree!" However, he looked at the time, and immediately put on a bitter face: "This time it's too late, let other chefs do it, wait a minute When I invite you again next time, I will cook for myself."

"You still do it yourself?"

Jian Xiaoqi has long known that Tom is a gourmet, but he doesn't want him to cook by himself now, and his mouth is open again.

Guo Linchen saw her look on the side, smiled knowingly, and explained: "Tom himself is the signature chef of this restaurant. Every weekend, he cooks for some guests himself." Of course, these guests can only be VIPs.

Tom also nodded in agreement: "Yeah, how can a gourmet not know how to cook?" After finishing speaking, the 30-year-old young man bowed his head and begged for petting.

Suddenly, Jian Xiaoqi looked at Tom with a slightly warmer gaze.Not bad, he can speak and do, and he has food experience at his fingertips. He is indeed a good foreigner!
