Ode to Joy clearly loves you

On Friday morning, Andy sent Guan Juer to work.

"Zhen Zhen won't be back until Monday." Guan Juer is almost living his life these days.

"I really want to know so much and call her directly." Andy encouraged Guan Juer, "As far as I know, unless you really have no skills, you won't not answer your calls."

"Would it be too straightforward to ask directly? I hope to inquire about Dr. Zhao's situation, his hobbies, interests and so on." Guan Juer was pointed out by Andy, a little shy, "My mother said that girls should still be reserved. point, but you are also right, so I really want to work hard, but I can't let go, Sister Andy, am I conflicted."

Andy glanced at her: It seems that she really likes it "Yes, but it will be easy after taking the first step, and Min has some ideas, so she pulled the red line for Xiaoqu several times, although Dr. Zhao didn't seem to care about it." Tempted, but I think if she comes forward, maybe we can have a meal or something, but I still have to ask her."

"Yeah." Guan Juer nodded vigorously, "I'm not in a hurry." When she heard that there was hope, she immediately expressed her opinion.

Andy smiled.

After a while, Guan Juer remembered something, "I always feel that Sister Fan is in a bad mood these days. Although she doesn't go out very much, she can't cheer up; yesterday I talked to Yingying about Zhenzhen When there are many brothers who love her dearly, Sister Fan's eyes are red."

"I also heard Min vaguely mention that there seems to be something wrong with Xiaofan's family." Andy actually felt it too, "No matter what Xiaoqu said, I always think Xiaofan is not that bad. In the words, if you presuppose a position in advance, you will lose your rational judgment. Individuals are different. If Xiao Fan is as Xiao Qu said, I don’t think Min’s family will tolerate her staying by Min’s side; Busy, you and Xiaoqiu can spend more time with her, but don't tell Xiaoqiu some things, she is outspoken, I'm afraid she will say something to embarrass Xiaofan."

Guan Juer obeyed.

"Xiao Fan is a very face-saving person. She likes to hide everything, and she is afraid that others will find out. Probably only in front of Min, she dares to reveal her true nature." Andy admires Ming Zhen very much.

Guan Juer thought for a while, "Yeah, although we later found out that her father and elder brother were characters who appeared in Time magazine, she didn't give us the feeling of being superior, she was still her, not at all like Qu Xiaoxiao, The attitude is so arrogant, as if looking down on us from above."

"Americans are like this. The honor of the family is a matter of the family. One's own life and career need to be worked hard." Andy has lived in the United States for a long time, so he also knows something. "Many children of the rich in the United States work, but they have the resources and opportunities More than others, but the hard work is also true.”

"Sister Andy, have you received an invitation for the grandpa's birthday at Zhenzhen's family?" Guan Juer asked her, "I heard that her parents and two older brothers may come. If you can go, you can come back." Can you tell me what kind of people they are?" Such a world-class figure.

"I didn't receive an invitation." Andy knew that this gathering was completely family. "It's a family gathering, but Lao Tan seems to be going to meet his parents."

"Although I don't want to admit it, but this is the difference." Guan Juer leaned back in the chair, "Your boss is like a fantasy to us ordinary people. Which daughter can fall in love with him, and his parents probably won't in the end. Object, but Zhen Zhen's parents can object to the end."

"I don't know much about this kind of thing, but there should be no reason to object." Andy didn't understand what Guan Juer wanted to express, "Min is an adult, and her relationship is her own business, and she and Lao Tan are very good. . " The two little ones still don't know about the breakup episode, "What do you want to say?"

"No." Guan Juer shook her head. Of course she couldn't tell Andy that she was worried that Ming Zhen's parents would look down on Tan Zongming. The doctor likes Ming Zhen, and he is even more worried that Ming Zhen's parents are opposed to her current relationship, and he doesn't want Ming Zhen to be single, otherwise he may be doomed to fail before he even knows her.

Andy stopped the car and took a look, "It seems that someone is waiting for you."

Guan Ju'er saw Senior Brother Lin through the front window: I didn't think that this person would be taller or weaker in comparison. The same senior brother, why is there such a big difference? "Then I'll go first." I was thinking about the assessment After the end, she tried to get Senior Brother Lin to approach her, but now she doesn't think so anymore. When she meets that person, she can no longer make do with it, and she doesn't want to make do with it.

……

After a busy day, Andy finally finished his work. When he came to the garage, he found Ming Zhen leaning against her car. Andy looked around, "What's going on? Old Tan's car is over there."

"The one who has no conscience is waiting for you." Ming Zhen put away the phone, "I know you are not in a good mood today, so I specially spared time to accompany you, open the door, bride."

Andy was stunned for three seconds before he realized that "advanced communication may not be a good thing." He pressed the key.

"It's fine to be your psychological counselor, but I have zero love experience, so how can I become your emotional counselor? I'm at a loss." Ming Zhen walked to the side of the passenger cab, "Let's go."

"Where are you going? Eat?" Andy was really hungry when he got off work.

"Buy a ring." Ming Zhen opened the car door, "Miss, you are proposing, of course I want you to buy a ring; I have already made an agreement with a jewelry store, you don't have to worry, just pick slowly, by the way, you know Uncle Qi's hand Inch?"

Andy opened the driver's door and shook his head, "I don't know."

Both of them sat down.

Ming Zhen took out her mobile phone, "It's easy to handle, just ask him to wind the wire around and tell me the measured value. By the way, I'll see what suits my Zong Ming."

"Actually, that's not necessary. He said that he is responsible for the ring."

"Whoever proposes will buy it, of course." Ming Zhen gave Wei Wei an order to measure his hand, "Buy the ring, let's go to dinner; today I gave Zong Ming some information, in order to successfully pass through the activity of meeting parents on Sunday night, let him Get ready."

"When will your parents come?" Andy started the car.

"Tomorrow night or the morning of the 23rd." Ming Zhen put down her phone, "It depends on when they take off from the island. They are now on an island in the South Pacific, and that island is specially set up to protect the unique wild animal population there." The park is very beautiful, I have a chance to show you there, there are many big tortoises, which were once on the verge of extinction because of people's poor hunting, and now they have recovered a little bit, but it will take time for the population to reach a normal level."

"Let me go and see." Andy was very moved by what she said. Her parents' efforts to protect wild animals are very meaningful. "It's really relaxing to be with you."

"Then you won't relax when you're with Uncle Qi?" Ming Zhen brought the topic to him.

Andy drove out of the garage, "Actually, sometimes I'm quite afraid of him." She could only say this to Ming Zhen.

"Because he is a man, no matter how considerate, gentle and kind, his desire to conquer and possess still exists in his bones." Ming Zhen looked at the road ahead, "Especially a humorous, smart and successful man like Uncle Qi, in If he hadn’t been cruel on the road to success, he would have been defeated long ago. The phrase “non-toxic and not a husband” should have been “the measure of measure” at the beginning, but somehow it became “the poison of poison”, but this change was also recognized by the public Acceptance, it can be seen that there is a traceable root."

"Are you afraid of Old Tan?"

"Rather than being afraid, it's more about anticipation." Ming Zhen laughed, "If there was no Uncle Qi's phone call yesterday, I might already be a woman instead of a girl."

"Wow." Andy raised his eyebrows. "It seems that it is my fault. No wonder Lao Tan treated me lukewarm today. He sighed when he saw me. The original source is here; how about you? Regret?"

"Xiaomei said to be reserved and take the initiative." Ming Zhen is willing to share with her, "If it doesn't work out, it means the time has not come. When the time comes, it will come naturally. I don't reject it, and I look forward to it."

"But I can't look forward to it. Up to now, I still feel that it is difficult to be intimate with people. I can hold hands and kiss, but if I go further, I will, just..." Andy sighed.

"American anthropologist Dr. Edward Hall divides four kinds of distances for interpersonal communication: public distance: 3.7 meters to 7.6 meters, as the name suggests, the distance between people who have no relationship or do not know each other, such as the distance between people who have no relationship in public places The kind of distance; social distance: 1.2 meters -3.7 meters reflects a more formal relationship in business or etiquette; personal distance: 46 cm -122 cm alone space between people, it reminds others' I am a person who pays great attention to personal distance, don't violate my distance, don't get too close to me'." Ming Zhen dictated what she knew, "Intimatedistance is 0-45cm, relatives, couples, couples and very familiar friends This will happen, within 45cm, between the opposite sex, only between lovers, couples, etc., between people of the same sex, often only limited to close friends; between 15cm-44cm, physical contact may It is manifested as holding arms and holding hands, or having a heart-to-heart talk, within 0-15 centimeters, is the most intimate area, and each other can feel each other's body temperature and breath."

Andy listened without speaking.

"There are many kinds of emotions, some are hot as fire, some are gentle as water, and different people have different ways of shortening the 45 cm distance. Some are dry wood and fire, and some need time and emotional joint efforts; So don't feel frustrated or blame yourself, it won't help shorten the distance at all." Ming Zhen seemed to be speaking very casually.

But Andy knew that she was deliberately taking time to accompany her, and she was afraid that she would have some bad thoughts because of that. Facing such a girlfriend, she was really touched and had nothing to say.

Inside a jewelry store.

Dozens of men and women paired rings were placed in front of Andy, "How about this?"

"It's too plain, it's understandable not to wear diamonds, but it doesn't have any patterns at all, it's not good-looking." Ming Zhen picked up another set of simple styles. This set of rings can form a heart when combined together, and each is simple when viewed separately. Fashion "It's not bad to have a little sense of design."

Andy took it and kind of liked it.

Ming Zhen saw that the design concept of a set of rings came from the Möbius strip, "What about this one?"

Andy also looked, "This is simple and very chic."

"This is a new model for this year." The clerk introduced.

Andy seemed to like this better, looking up "What do you think?"

"Very good." Ming Zhen nodded and asked the clerk to show her a set of cufflinks.

Andy also saw that the set of "Sapphire? For Old Tan?" was quite appropriate.

"No, give it to my elder brother." Ming Zhen asked someone to wrap it up for herself. "Although he is a cannibal, he will not be soft-spoken, and he will never be short-handed, but if you want to please, you still have to please."

"Don't worry, Old Tan can handle it." This time, it was Andy who comforted her.

"Would you like to come to help?" Ming Zhen took another look at a pair of men and women. "And my parents want to see you."

"Why?" Andy was a little surprised.

"Why else, it's just worrying." Ming Zhen understands what they mean, "The female friends in my daughter's network really appeared, not counting Xiaomei and the others. You are my first female friend who has a good relationship. They are naturally very curious. .”

Andy smiled, "It's my honor; in fact, you also have selfish intentions. You are afraid that you will neglect Lao Tan when you are busy, and he will be embarrassed by himself, right?"

"Yes, on Sundays, they are basically family members. If you can be here, in case I can't accompany him, he won't be too lonely." Ming Zhen admitted, "And if he is alone, who knows that my brothers What will they do, but with you, a beautiful lady, they will definitely have some scruples; men of the Ming family have always been polite and respectful to ladies."

"Okay, I'll go." Andy was very straightforward, "Old Tan has helped me so much, now it's my turn to do something, it's my duty."

"I'll ask Old Tan to pick you up on that Sunday, you guys come together." Ming Zhen bought the pair of watches.

Andy frowned, "It's all diamonds? It's so flashy." It doesn't seem like a style that Ming Zhen would like.

"Old people like shiny things when they get older, although they don't admit it." Ming Zhen raised her eyebrows, "My parents also need such shiny things to attend some occasions, and I can't be around them often. I feel that I am not filial enough, so I have to use these material things to fill my guilt."

Andy just smiles.

"I'm sorry, I obviously bought a lot of things to accompany you, but I bought a lot of them." Ming Zhen coughed softly, "I don't do much shopping, so I buy a lot of things." Either don't buy, or buy everything if you want to buy. .

"It's okay." Andy didn't mind. "If you have a big brother to send your parents, what about your second brother?"

"He is a designer himself, and he doesn't like these uncharacteristic designs. He says they are passersby's models. Most of his things are designed by himself or by others." Since he doesn't like it, it's not a waste. .”
