Chapter 54 Stir-Fried Chestnuts With Milk Tea

Speaking of which, Shang Wan's mobility is really strong. Just two days after I went back, a lawyer called me. When I first picked up, I thought the caller made a mistake. It wasn't until the lawyer said that it was for the commutation of my father's sentence. Remembering, Shang Wan did mention that he wanted to help.

She was right. The situation was not good at one time and another. It doesn’t mean that the sentence cannot be reduced now. Besides, Qishan has performed well in these years, and he has not caused any trouble to the country, heh!

After the lawyer talked with me on the phone and got to know the basic situation, the next step is to have an interview and then go to see the client.

That night, Shang Wan invited us to have a meal together, to lubricate us, and to have a three-way meeting. If Shang Wan didn't show up, even though she entrusted her with a lawyer, it would be a business-like arrangement. Let's have a meal together It's different. During the meeting, we chatted about family affairs, and the lawyer immediately became one of his own.

After sending the lawyer away, we walked around the neighborhood together to digest food.It is also early winter, compared with Aalborg on the streets of City R, there is more fireworks in the milk tea shop on the street, more fireworks in the busy wheels, and more colorful neon lights in small restaurants. A piece of pyrotechnics, even the various expensive or cheap shoes on the asphalt road, also gave the city a trivial pyrotechnics.

Shang Wan was wearing a dark gray fisherman's hat, and all he could see was a pretty chin.

"Do you want milk tea?" I asked her.

She seemed to hesitate, "Okay."

"Are you afraid of sugar? Shall I get you something sugar-free?"

"Hmm... a small cup with half sugar is fine, the original flavor." She looked up and watched me go to the window of the milk tea shop, where there were already three or five people queuing up.He was still pulling on my sleeve.

I smiled, and walked back in two steps, "Aren't you reluctant to part with me? Why is it different from Mr. Shang at the dinner table just now?"

She wrinkled her nose, "Who can't bear you, go quickly."

I hugged her, "I can't bear you, let's go, go in line with me."

The two of us stood in front of a small milk tea shop on the street. I have walked this street countless times. Since I was a student, I have also lined up for such a small milk tea shop countless times. Take Shang Wan to buy milk tea here.

"What are you thinking?" she asked me.

"Think about it, should I add pearls."

She put a sticker on me again, probably because it was really cold, "Come on, I want to eat too, take me to share."

I shook my head and pinched her face, "You little girls, you want to eat but are afraid of getting fat, and you want to hurt your girlfriend..."

As soon as I finished speaking, I blushed and became more and more confident in this identity. She laughed when she heard this, and there were stars in her eyes under the night.

"Come on," she called me, and I turned my head, only to see that delicate chin, "I don't dare to be 100% sure about your father, but I think there is great hope."

"Well, don't worry, it's okay if it doesn't work. He has survived for eight years. It's his fate if he succeeds. It's God's will if he fails."

"Well, let me just say it. Otherwise, don't tell your mother. I'm afraid that if it doesn't work, more people will be disappointed."

"My mother, she is heartless, so she won't care about my father's life or death. Don't worry."

"That's not necessarily true. We have been married for more than 20 years, and we have you. There is family affection without love."

I snorted, "She divorced and remarried as soon as my father had an accident, so I didn't see any family affection."

Shang Wan turned to look at me and was about to say something when the people in front left and it was our turn. I was also glad that she couldn't answer this complaint, after all, it was my family's shame.

I ordered a cup with pearls, and a cup with half sugar and no pearls for her. It was still hot when I got it. I knew she was greedy for the pearls in my cup, and I didn’t want to let her eat my leftovers when they were not hot. He sucked up a tube, took it out with his mouth, cooled it in the air, and pointed to the other end of the straw with Chong Shangwan.

She had been looking at me as if watching a monkey show, and finally patted me, "Don't make trouble, it's on the street."

I "sucked" and sucked it back by myself, "I'm afraid you will be burned, look at you, you don't know good people."

She snatched my milk tea from my hand.

"Ouch! Not only are you ignorant, but you also forcibly snatch the milk tea from..."

She took a small sip calmly and frowned, "You are so sweet." She returned it to me.

"I still hate it after snatching it." I took a sip of what she had left, and it was sweeter than before.

"Why don't you get fat?" She asked me bitterly.

"Why don't you get fat after eating? Do you still dislike me for being thin? It's time for you to see the strength of your original attack."

She froze for a moment, probably not familiar with the common vocabulary of "gui circle", she looked confused.

Seeing her like this, I couldn't bear to tease her any more. Thinking of the serious topic just now, "Shang Wan, whether my father's matter is successful or not, the lawyer will pay me to pay him."

She held the milk tea and thought for a while, "Don't think too much about it. There is a fixed procedure for applying for a commutation of sentence. It's not as complicated as going to court. Lawyer Chen may not even charge me. Everyone has helped each other."

"Then you don't need to bear the favor, I will pay him as much as he wants."

"Why are you so far away from me? Human feelings are not human. If we all come out to do things, if we want to maintain the relationship, don't you mean that I owe you today and you owe me tomorrow? If everything is settled, the friendship will be weakened. When the water is clear, there will be no Fish, it’s like this in business, and it’s also like this in love.”

I thought about what she said, and didn't say anything.

"Come on, are you still open after get off work on Friday night?" She said it mysteriously, and finally winked at me.

"After taking an order, it will be over at ten o'clock."

"Then I'll go find you when you're done, and I have something for you."

"Ah? Can you tell me, is it related to work? Or is it personal?"

She thought for a while, "Let's get involved."

In fact, my first reaction at the time was a birthday gift, because Saturday is my birthday, I invited her to the place where I live, and my mother and the others also come over as usual. In previous years, on birthdays, I usually go to my mother’s place to eat and then go out Gather with friends, because I invited Shang Wan this year, it's not appropriate to take her to my mother's place, it's better to come to my house, besides, although Shang Wan picked me up and dropped me off twice, they were in a hurry and never had a chance Ask her to go up and touch the door.

When we were seeing off the guests on Friday night, Shang Wan called me and asked if I could come. I roasted some chestnuts in the oven and they were almost ready. I asked her if I wanted to pick them up. She said that the driver was here and brought her over.

When I entered the door, it smelled so sweet. I didn't see her in Shanggu today. She ran out to have a meeting with someone for a day. When she entered the door now, I couldn't hold back, and hugged her and kissed her.

"Aiya," I turned and walked in, hiding my embarrassment after being "bold", "I'm getting bolder now, aren't I?"

I complained first and blocked her mouth.

"What smells so good?" She changed the subject while changing her shoes.

"That's not it, can you still escape the food crit when you come to me?"

"What's delicious? It's so late and you want to feed me, don't you?" She said and walked to the dining table.

"If it wasn't for you stuttering, why did you come here? Where did you come from? I haven't seen you all day."

"I went to inspect the new hotel project in the suburbs for a day, and I was in the apartment just now."

"Ah? I thought you went to a meeting somewhere, why do you need to go to the construction site yourself?" I said, taking out the fragrant chestnuts from the oven and putting them on the dining table, "How about it? Eat some chestnuts in winter, Nourish your stomach and you won’t get fat.”

"Geez, I love this," she said, picking up one. "I go over every big project myself. You think we guys in this business can sit in offices all day?"

Seeing that her ten fingers didn't touch the sun water, I took the chestnut in her hand, "Come on, I'll help you peel it, and you can eat it." I peeled it out quickly and fed it to her.

"Eh? It's not worse than the 'Golden Chestnut King'." She ate to her satisfaction.

"That is, in the future I will be really poor, and I can go to the street to fry chestnuts."

She didn't bother to answer, "That's right." She lowered her head and fumbled in her bag.

I rested my chin on both hands, and posed the standard posture of the flowers of the motherland.

I saw her take out a card and put it in front of me.

I looked at her face, looked at this card, and looked at her face again. The card said "Shang Gu".

"Mr. Shang, do you want to take a closer look, is the bank card used as an employee card?"

"What are you thinking about? This is an access control card. In the future, you can go directly to the 42nd floor with this card. I can also use this card to swipe in my office area and my office, saving you the trouble of finding me every time. "

This...is good, but it's too far from the birthday present I was thinking of.

"Hmm~ That's great. Although you should have realized this earlier, it's not too late now." I put my card away with a poor mouth.

"Oh, I almost forgot," she said as she went to get something out of her bag, "Look at me, I almost forgot my business." She took out a document bag and put it in front of me.

"Huh? Am I fired?"

"open to take a look."

I looked at her suspiciously, then at the file bag, reached for it, and opened it.

"Oh, it's all in English. Is this an ancient English test question?"

"Excuse me, I opened this education fund account in the United States, and I deposited a sum of money for you in it, including the wages I owe you since I met you, and you refunded the money to Secretary Jing when I held a private banquet for me , the wages of these days, the business trip last week, the bureau was unable to open, subsidize your losses, etc., a total of 50."

I raised my eyes and looked at her, "You can't count, my dear, do you not know how much you have suffered? Or you hire me to do the bill for you?"

"In the future, I will put some funds into it little by little. Your internship salary will be included in it. I will lend you the extra, and you will pay me back in the future." She paused, then smiled and said, "This counts. My birthday present to you this year, I hope you will return to Rice as soon as possible."

At that moment, I suddenly couldn't get out of poverty. I looked at the fund information in my hand, and my eyes fell on her wrist again. I knew that this money might be nothing to her. A watch is expensive, but she knows what it means to me, and she also knows how to give it to me in such a way, saying that everything is earned by myself, delicate and reasonable.
