I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 246 Have you considered going back to Shanghai for development?

I locked the door, and followed Yang Sisi to the outside of "Jiulongju". Her pace was not slow, and I didn't walk side by side with her until I was about to reach the entrance of the alley.I said to her: "You walk so fast, do you know your way?"

"I know Dali better than you."

"You know me better than me, but you don't know which road Cao Xiaobei's shop is on."

"Didn't you say that it's on the only way to the Women's Flower Bar? I'll just watch it as I walk."

"Go slowly, I'll show you the way."

Yang Sisi stopped in her tracks and asked, "Honestly speaking, is Cao Xiaobei's shop the only way to go to Women's Flower Bar?"

"As long as it is not a dead end, there must be several roads that can lead to it. If you take other roads, you will have to detour for at least a few hundred meters."

"Are you afraid that I won't be able to walk the few hundred meters?"

"If you really don't want to live with Cao Xiaobei, then just pretend I didn't tell you."

"I know what's on your mind."

"People's hearts are made of flesh and blood. Sometimes I feel very uncomfortable seeing Cao Xiaobei's decadent appearance."

"Your hearts are all flesh and blood, but I'm made of stone. I don't have emotions...Is it?"

I looked at Yang Sisi and replied after a while: "Are you going or not?"

"Only if you like to go back on your word... If I say the past, I will definitely go."

After Yang Sisi finished speaking, she walked to the main road of the ancient city before me, and Cao Xiaobei's shop was in an alley connected to the main road. Although the alley was not very popular, it was quite easy to touch. If Yang Sisi was more careful, Definitely can see it.

……

After being choked by Yang Sisi for a few words, I didn't take the initiative to lead her the way, and kept walking behind her. When I was about to reach Cao Xiaobei's "Yang Yang Cafe", Yang Sisi stopped, and she looked at her first. , and later the expression became complicated.

I stood side by side with her, and then said to her: "This is Cao Xiaobei's Yangyang Cafe... At ten o'clock in the evening, all customers who are lucky enough to enter the store can drink a cup of pudding milk tea made by him for free."

"What's the time now?"

"55:[-], do you want to go in?"

"Is there any way to go in early?"

"I don't know, I'm always stuck."

"Then wait for three minutes."

"Wait, just a cigarette."

After finishing speaking, I took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and lit it, and then looked at this side and that side a little bored; during the period, I pretended to casually say to Yang Sisi: "By the way, I remember you are not in Shanshui I rented a bungalow before, and it has a sea view...why don't you live there?"

Yang Sisi was taken aback, and replied, "I like making friends, okay?"

"Okay, sure; I'm just afraid that you'll be crowded there. You've been to the Women's Flower Bar, and it's not a big place."

"As long as your friend doesn't think it's crowded, I don't think it's too crowded."

I nodded and stopped talking.

……

Footsteps came from behind, I thought it was a tourist passing by, I didn’t pay attention at first, but when this person rubbed shoulders with us, I realized that it was Cao Xiaobei holding a large bucket of purified water...Cao Xiaobei also found me , Immediately asked very unhappy: "Did the mother come to drink milk tea that doesn't cost money again?"

I smiled and said, "Yes, and I brought a friend with me."

Cao Xiaobei, like me, did not expect Yang Sisi to come back at all, so he didn't pay attention to Yang Sisi who was playing with his mobile phone sideways at the first time. When he found out, the expression could not be described in words, because his eyes widened , the eyebrows seemed to be erected, and then there was a movement in the hand... The big bucket of purified water that he was holding fell off with a plop, and finally rolled to Yang Sisi's feet.

Yang Sisi glanced at the very funny Cao Xiaobei, held back first, then laughed out loud, and asked, "Am I a ghost? Scared you like this!"

Cao Xiaobei and Yang Sisi looked at each other, leaned over and picked up the bucket with an extremely awkward movement, and replied after a long while: "...the store has no water for milk tea, so I went out to get a bucket of water."

"Can you stop answering the question?"

Cao Xiaobei smiled at Yang Sisi, after the accident, his mood was clearly occupied by happiness, he said to Yang Sisi: "It's windy here, go in and say... You can also try my craft, I have nothing to say about the milk tea I made. "

"Do you want money?"

"No money, if you like it, the store can give it to you."

"Who cares!"

Yang Sisi said as she walked towards Cao Xiaobei's shop, and I said to Cao Xiaobei behind her: "I won't drink your free milk tea today, I have to go to my friend's place, you guys Talk slowly."

Cao Xiaobei glanced at me and replied, "Go, hurry up."

I smiled, and then told Yang Sisi to let her go to the "Women's Flower" bar by herself, Yang Sisi didn't object, so the next moment, I walked to the end of the alley alone; although I don't know what the two of them will talk about; I'm sure that Cao Xiaobei must be very happy, and I can imagine what kind of feeling he feels when he is happy, just like the feeling that Ye Zhi suddenly returned to my side.

Unfortunately, I'm not that lucky, because Ye Zhi is not a woman who likes to repeat herself. When she left, she probably really left.

People, what a different face, a different character!

……

When I came to the "Women's Flower" bar, Nicole was still decorating, and with her efforts, the bar has changed a lot. Although it is not my favorite style, women must like it. This also proves that Nicole really put her heart into it, such as The murals hanging on the walls are all classic figures among women, probably to encourage customers to be like these classic women figures, to strive for self-improvement and live a wonderful life.

After I sat down, Nicole was busy for another ten minutes, and then brought me a bottle of "Feng Hua Xue Yue" beer from the wine cabinet behind me, which reminded me of those days when I opened a sea view inn in Longkan, After I finish my work outside, I always like to sit in the small bar of the inn for a while, and Taozi or Bailu will always bring me a bottle of beer at the right time, just like Nicole at this time.

I am a nostalgic person, especially on a special day like New Year's Eve, I always think of those friends who have gone away.

I opened the beer and took a sip, and said to Nicole, "You know, the way you hold the wine is very similar to Bai Lu."

Nicole was in a good mood, she laughed and replied: "Haha, they are all women who come out to mess around, can't it be different?"

"Actually, I want to wish you that you can reproduce the scenery of Bai Lu at that time."

"No problem, I have full confidence in this bar... If nothing else, just because of the trust you and Ye Zhi have, I must find a way to make the bar a success."

I look at Nicole...

Nicole replied embarrassingly: "It seems a bit inappropriate to talk about Ye Zhi with you at this time... Ha!"

"It's okay, I came here to ask you about her... What did she say later?"

"I don't want to communicate with you... If she is willing, I will call you."

My mood was instantly depressed, then I picked up the beer can and took a sip...Suddenly at a loss, I stared at the mural on the wall for a long time.

"What's the matter with you, Michael?"

"I'm fine."

I took another sip from the beer can, and then said to Nicole, "Give me a strong bottle."

"Aren't you afraid of drinking too much?"

I forced a smile and said, "Don't be afraid, today is such a good day, what are you afraid of!"

Nicole listened to me, and brought me another bottle of high-alcohol foreign wine. After pouring me a glass, she also poured a glass herself, and I did it first as a respect.

Nicole shook her head, and after a while of silence, she said to me, "Migao, what are your plans for next year?" After thinking about it, she added, "I mean career."

When I didn't think about Ye Zhi these two days, I did think a lot about my career. I didn't treat Nicole as an outsider, so I replied truthfully: "I want to build my own studio and develop the commercial street of Jiulongju." ..."

"You have inflated your self-confidence... Those who have been in Dali for a long time, no one knows that it is a ghost street... Believe it or not, after the peak season of the Chinese New Year is over, it will still be the same there."

"Trust me, that's why I want to create a studio dedicated to this."

Nicole shook her head: "I don't like you doing this."

I lit another cigarette and replied, "Actually, before this, Cao Jinbo approached me, hoping that I would help him with things, mainly managing the bars and inns in the ancient city... His treatment is not bad. Hundreds of thousands is no problem, but I have concerns, and I can't completely refuse... So I came up with such a compromise method. If I can really stir up this commercial street, does it mean doing things for him? Longju has nearly 20 sets of shops..."

Nicole interrupted me and said, "Cao Jinbo really thinks of you as a talent... But, Mi Gao, have you ever thought about going back to Shanghai to develop?"

I looked at Nicole in surprise, and asked after a while, "I just got used to Dali, why do I want to go back to Shanghai to develop?"

"Think about it, where does Ye Zhi live the longest in a year?"

"Shanghai for sure."

"Then don't you understand?...As long as you return to Shanghai, you will have many opportunities to communicate. The biggest problem for you now is not who misunderstood who, but the lack of communication; Ye Zhi is also angry, she If you really cared about you, you wouldn't keep ignoring you... You also took the opportunity to express your determination to her. She is such a smart woman, why can't she see that you went back to Shanghai for her... Ask yourself, is this Are actual actions better than thousands of words?"

I looked at Nicole and was speechless for a long time... I never thought that a city that I wanted to forget so much would be brought up by a person in such a realistic way.

I don't deny that what she said makes sense... But, Shanghai is a knot in my heart that will never be untied. How could I go back because of Nicole's words.

Nicole urged again: "Mi Gao, whatever you think, just say what you say...Anyway, this is one of my suggestions, and the final decision is up to you, right?"
