Chapter 46 Chance Encounter
The queen who came back from Hokkaido seemed to be very talkative.
Or maybe the slightly spicy level is just right for her.
She talks a lot.
From astronomy to geography, from dance to her own high school life.
Lu Yao heard from the side that she was also a top student. She went to England to study in junior high school and went to university in Oxford.
This is awesome.
Lu Yao has never studied abroad, but he has traveled to many places during his graduate and doctoral studies with his tutor. When it comes to specific life-related knowledge and customs, he definitely doesn’t know as much as Queen Hai.
With some intention of giving it a try, he asked about studying in France.
Unexpectedly, Hai Hou’s speech turned out to be quite racist:
"France? Why go to France? There are more and more black people there, the environment is dirty and messy, and the experience is very bad."
"My sister just got admitted to the Northern Business School in Nice this year. I want to go there..."
"Nice? Well, then ask Xiaochu, she has a distant cousin over there."
"Mr. Xu also said that she knew that school. But I didn't ask more."
After hearing this, Hai Hou, whose lips were slightly red, looked at him and shook her head slightly:
"Look, this is what I'm talking about...your character flaw. You always keep a polite distance from other people, but sometimes...it can also cause trouble to others. Then It’s just... I don’t know whether I should care about you or not. I’m afraid you won’t accept it... Your things are quite concerning.”
"Uh..."
Looking at the stunned Lu Yao, Hai Hou took a chopstick of green vegetables and continued:
"Actually, this matter is very simple. Since she can take the initiative to tell you that she has friends there, then, with her character, as long as you speak, she can become your support. Don't look at Xiaochu in his own life She went to school very badly, but in fact her style of doing things is a very typical decisive personality. If your sister really wants to study in Nice, just tell her, and it will not be difficult for her to find someone to help your sister integrate into the local environment. .”
"That's... Mr. Xu's cousin?"
"Yes."
"It's not appropriate to trouble others like this."
"What's inappropriate? Will you refuse your boss's order?"
"...?"
Lu Yao was a little puzzled, but Hai Hou helped him directly:
"Speaking of your boss's cousin, she can be regarded as an employee of the Xu family. Have you heard of that allusion? In ancient times, some poor scholars came to Beijing to take the exam and lacked money. They would take the initiative to visit some wealthy gentry. The wealthy gentry usually entertained them with wine and meat, and then served them A sum of travel expenses that is nothing to them is used to form a good relationship. If this scholar goes to high school, the return rate of this friendship will be amazing..."
"Sister Li means..."
Hai Hou smiled slightly:
"That's what I mean. Although I may not be able to provide any substantial help, helping your sister integrate into the environment is a trivial matter for her. Wait for your sister to come over and just talk to her directly. Or follow me It's okay, but most of my connections are in the UK, but I advise you not to come to the UK. The food tastes terrible. If you stay in the UK for one year, you will want to die. In the second year, you will want to drag everyone around you to die with you. If you stay in the UK for three years, I just want to destroy the whole world..."
Lu Yao twitched the corner of his mouth and said subconsciously:
"But Britain has the most delicious food, and London has the most Michelin restaurants in the world."
"Uh..."
Hai Hou was immediately speechless.
Lu Yao shrugged:
“It’s just French food.”
"...Pfft hahahaha."
Laughter and charm flowed throughout the restaurant.
Apparently, she enjoyed the joke.
……
Hu Li was in a good mood. After finishing his meal, it was already past 9 o'clock.
After Haihou finished paying the bill, she yelled that she was going to play basketball.
But unlike Lu Yao's community where the basketball hoop can be played 24 hours a day, at this point, finding a basketball hall... is quite difficult.
In addition, Lu Yao was not familiar with this place, so Hai Hou thought for a long time and found that the best place was the gym she went to. According to her, the equipment area that Lu Yao saw in the gym was just the tip of the iceberg. It also had swimming pools, tennis courts, table tennis courts and basketball courts.
But from here to there, I guess the gym will be closed within a short time. And it was quite close to the time she had agreed with her friends.
I can only give up with regret.
But I made an appointment with Lu Yao to practice Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tomorrow.
Perhaps because she was in a particularly good mood, she and Lu Yao agreed that they would mop the entire gym floor in the shrimp pose.
Mopping it cleanly.
Completely crazy.
But Lu Yao's mind is no longer on this at the moment.
France vs. Mexico starts at 10 o'clock.
He also wanted to see it early.
So, Lu Yao took her and rushed to the agreed place to meet her friends.
A bar called Shiliyangchang.
Just by hearing the name, you can tell that this bar is Quiet Bar. According to Haihou, it was opened by someone she knew.
During the World Cup, the business of such quiet bars picked up.
In fact, to be honest, the culture of bar games in China was also introduced from Europe and the United States, and it didn't last a few years. But young people like to join in the fun.
Drinking a glass of sixty-eight beer, regardless of whether you really like football or just joining in the fun, the main focus is on the atmosphere.
When we arrived at the bar, it was barely past 10 o'clock.
Hu Li led Lu Yao inside. Although he didn't know what was going on inside, there were many luxury cars outside.
After pushing the door open, Lu Yao heard a voice:
"Friends from the audience, after a long wait, France vs. Mexico in Group A of the World Cup in South Africa..."
The game has just started, and the players on both sides have just kicked off on the projection screen.
Lu Yao's heart began to beat faster unconsciously.
But...he is quite different.
The others were either wearing French team uniforms or dressed normally...but he walked in wearing a 76ers vest and big pants.
It looks like basketball comes to football to pick a fight.
At this time, a voice sounded:
"Hu Li, here it is, here it is."
Lu Yao and Hu Li turned their heads at the same time and saw three connected decks in the quiet bar. In each deck, at least someone looked this way and raised their hands.
It seems that the people in these three seats are all together, there are about six or seven people in one booth.
Hu Li walked that way, followed by Lu Yao.
But immediately he saw an unexpected person...
Wei Qianqian?
Monitor?
In the booth next to the entrance on the left, he has disheveled hair, wearing big black-rimmed glasses that almost cover half of his face, a loose T-shirt, pants, and double Crocs on his feet. The "sloppy" Wei Qianqian stared at him dumbfounded.
The two looked at each other.
She seemed to be saying:
"Lu Yao? Why are you here."
Both of them were a little confused.
At this time, Hu Li had already walked up the small steps, smiled and waved to Wei Qianqian's table, and then walked directly to the middle.
Seeing this, Lu Yao did not rush to say hello to Wei Qianqian, but nodded slightly and followed him.
I plan to talk about it later.
"You are so late."
A fat guy stood up with a smile:
"It's too difficult to ask your Majesty to come to my humble abode. The plum blossoms are so radiant."
"Okay, isn't this just right? It's just begun..."
As Hu Li said this, he greeted several people around him who called "Sister Hu Li" and walked to this buddy.
Then he turned his head and pointed at Lu Yao:
"My brother, Lu Yao. Lu Yao, just call me Brother Yu."
When the fat guy who was obviously in charge today heard this, he smiled and extended his hand to Lu Yao:
"How are you, bro."
What he said just now was okay. Lu Yao knew as soon as he heard this greeting that he must be from the northeast.
"Hello, Brother Yu."
Lu Yao smiled and held hands with him.
"Well, come on, come on, sit down."
The man didn't let go, and pulled Lu Yao directly to sit next to Hu Li. Others naturally moved a few positions outside.
Obviously, Hu Li has a very high status at this table.
He followed suit.
Immediately afterwards, Brother Yu said to Hu Li:
"Your Majesty, can our brother drink?"
"I can't drink, I'm only in high school."
"Oh, okay, Xiao Li, bring some drinks. What's in it? Brother, you can drink whatever you want."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Yu."
Not to mention, Lu Yao is indeed tender-faced.
At least compared to the few people around him, he is a "child".
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
And then it’s time to chat and watch football.
Lu Yao sat next to Hu Li. The angle of the sofa was quite good. He had a clear view of the game.
Then, he felt his phone vibrate.
Take it out directly.
And it's not out of the ordinary... because he is a "kid", and other people are drinking, chatting and watching football. Children can't fit in, so playing on their mobile phones is a perfectly normal behavior.
No one even felt disrespectful.
Wei Qianqian:
"????"
Lu Yao looked at the row of question marks and replied:
"Why are you here?"
"I still want to ask you, why is it such a coincidence?"
"Then you answer first."
"I came here with my brother."
"Take you to the bar when you have just turned eighteen? My dear brother."
"Cousin. What about you?"
"I'm following..."
After typing this, Lu Yao paused.
Because a sentence rang in his ears:
"Sister."
The corner of his mouth twitched.
But I continued typing:
"I came here with my sister."
"Hehe~"
At some point, Hu Llim smiled brightly when she looked at the screen of his mobile phone.
Asked:
"Who is it?"
"The girl with black-rimmed glasses at the table to our right, we are classmates."
"Huh? Such a coincidence?"
Hu Li stretched his neck and glanced to the right, and Wei Qianqian also looked over.
But as soon as he looked at her, he immediately lowered his head in a "strange" manner.
Seeing this, Hu Li didn't say anything. After retracting his gaze, he no longer paid attention to Lu Yao, but chatted with Brother Yu with a wine glass.
As for Wei Qianqian, the way she lowered her head and fiddled with her phone also attracted the attention of a man wearing glasses sitting next to her.
While others were joking, the man said:
"Qianqian, don't play with your phone all the time. It's rude. You should communicate with them more."
When Wei Qianqian heard this, she immediately closed the phone screen and nodded:
"Okay, brother."
"Yeah."
The man responded, and then asked curiously:
"Is he a boy? Are we friends?"
"..."
Wei Qianqian was speechless and said:
"What are you thinking about, my classmate. He's the one who just arrived, wearing a football uniform."
Now it was the man's turn to be stunned.
He turned to look at his cousin, blinked, and said:
"The one coming after Hu Li?...Is he your classmate? Is Hu Li's younger brother your classmate?"
Although she didn't understand why her cousin was so surprised, Wei Qianqian still nodded. Then he said:
"Moreover, his college entrance examination scores were particularly good, with an estimated score of 707. This is because the composition score was conservative..."
"..."
The man didn't seem surprised by her words.
Or rather bland.
Just continue to ask:
"How is your relationship? Are you familiar?"
"Quite familiar."
"..."
The man raised his head subconsciously.
I saw Lu Yao playing with his phone with his head down.
At this time, Wei Qianqian's screen lit up, showing that she had a message coming.
"You talk to him, we'll go say hello to him later."
"...?"
Wei Qianqian was stunned.
The change in her cousin's tone made her realize something...but she didn't fully understand it yet.
But I still picked up the phone.
"What's up with your black-rimmed glasses? I almost didn't recognize you. Also, it's illegal for minors to come to bars!"
"Please report, thank you, my stinky brother who is one month younger than me."
After Wei Qianqian finished speaking, she turned to look at her cousin.
Sure enough, he was looking at his phone screen.
Facing his cousin's eyes, the man shrugged:
"I will supervise you on behalf of my aunt to prevent you from falling in love prematurely."
"I'm an adult, okay?"
Wei Qianqian rolled her eyes, but her curiosity was aroused.
Why does my cousin care so much about Lu Yao...
Or...she seems to care about Lu Yao's sister?
The phone screen lights up again.
Lu Yao:
"Okay, let's die together!"
"Ha~"
Wei Qianqian didn't reply yet, but the man laughed out loud.
She was even more speechless, thinking to herself, why are you addicted to voyeurism?
But... now that her mind was gradually clearing, she had roughly understood her cousin's true focus.
So, after replying an EMOJI horror emoticon to Lu Yao, she clasped the phone with her backhand, leaned into the man's ear and whispered:
"Cousin, do you know Lu Yao's sister?"
