Chapter 10 First date with Chen Xueru
Author: scallion flower roll
Li Ye, who was riding a bicycle, originally planned to go back to the courtyard to make a floor plan of the house and design how to decorate it.
Unexpectedly, the bicycle handlebar seemed to have a mind of its own, and it turned towards Qianmen Street.
Arriving at Chen Xueru's silk shop, Li Ye put his bicycle upright at the door, dusted himself off and walked in. At this time, Chen Xueru was chatting with the pretty shopkeeper from the tavern last night.
When Chen Xueru saw him, her eyes lit up and she waved for Li Ye to come over.
Li Ye walked over, greeted Xu Huizhen with a smile and sat next to Chen Xueru.
As soon as he sat down, Li Ye noticed a line of sight coming towards him. When he turned around, he saw a man in his thirties with oily hair looking at him with an unkind look. When he saw Li Ye looking over, the man immediately changed his expression.
He smiled and nodded at Li Ye.
Li Ye touched Chen Xueru's arm, "Who is this?"
"The official manager of our store, Liao Yucheng."
Chen Xueru didn't want to talk more about Liao Yucheng, so she took Li Ye and introduced the pretty shopkeeper to him.
"This is the proprietress of the tavern, Xu Huizhen. She is so awesome. We are the first individual merchant in Dashilan to participate in a public-private partnership. She even held a literacy class a few days ago, and the district leaders praised her."
Chen Xueru praised Xu Huizhen in her words, but her eyes kept staring at Li Ye, trying to see something in Li Ye's eyes.
But Li Ye just nodded to Xu Huizhen with calm eyes, and Chen Xueru felt relieved.
Chen Xueru has always felt that only Xu Huizhen can be her opponent.
One of them is divorced and the other is widowed. They are both young and beautiful and are doing business in Dashilar. How could they not compete with each other?
Chen Xueru pursed her lips, turned around and introduced Li Ye to Xu Huizhen.
"This is my partner, his name is Li Ye. You met him yesterday."
"I've seen it before, and I'm very impressed."
Li Ye smiled and said nothing.
Seeing Li Ye like this, Chen Xueru happily turned to Xu Huizhen and said:
"Huizhen, let's talk some other time. I'll make him some clothes today. You see, he only wears the same clothes when he goes out."
As he spoke, he patted the dust on Li Ye's arm.
Xu Huizhen nodded immediately after hearing this, stood up and left.
Xu Huizhen came here early in the morning today to gossip about Chen Xueru and Li Ye. Unexpectedly, before she asked, Chen Xueru started telling her, her tone full of pride.
"Oh, actually I didn't expect it to happen so soon~ Maybe you like me too much."
"No matter how you say it, he is a 'cadre'. He is not stable at all."
Xu Huizhen kept saying such bragging words, like a child who couldn't help but show off good things. Xu Huizhen was amused for a while.
Now that I've heard all the gossip, it's time to leave.
As soon as Xu Huizhen left, Chen Xueru took Li Ye around the store, constantly making gestures with the fabric.
Finally, I chose black, blue and pure black materials for him, and handed them over to a tailor wearing glasses and asked Li Ye.
"Where are we going?"
After finishing speaking, he blinked and looked at him, like a little fox.
Li Ye wanted to reach out and pat her on the head, but he felt that the time was not right. There were so many pairs of eyes in the store looking at her. If he really wanted to do this, a hat of improper relationship between a man and a woman would not be able to escape.
No one who buys tickets dares to be so open, let alone a fare evader.
"Where do you want to go?"
"It doesn't matter, it's up to you."
Since Chen Xueru said so, it’s easy to handle it. Let’s eat, watch a movie, have a drink and then…
With a place to go, Li Ye took Chen Xueru out. The two got on their bicycles and took Chen Xueru to the cinema.
I looked at the recent shows and chose a movie called "Big Li, Xiao Li and Old Li".
Taking advantage of the opening of the movie, I bought a bag of Mao Ke and a sesame dumpling nearby.
When Li Ye went back, he saw Chen Xueru chatting with someone. When Li Ye walked in, he found out that this person was Chen Xueru's customer. He also took advantage of today's break to take the whole family to watch a movie.
The few of them chatted for a while and then entered the cinema together.
After entering the door, checking in, and finding their seats, the two of them quietly held hands together after taking their seats.
Li Ye put Chen Xueru's hand on his thigh, picked up a sesame ball from the bag and fed it to her.
Chen Xueru crossed her legs, leaned on the back of the chair and squinted her eyes, waiting for Li Ye to feed her.
When the movie started, the lights in the cinema suddenly dimmed.
Li Ye smelled the delicate fragrance on Chen Xueru's body and couldn't help but become distracted.
Why do couples go to the cinema for a date? It’s because people are most likely to amplify other senses in a dark environment.
Especially smell and touch.
For example, now, Li Ye's fingertips brushed across Chen Xueru's wrist, feeling the delicate touch, and it was obvious that Chen Xueru twisted unnaturally.
Tsk, only then did I realize that Chen Xueru also has a sensitive constitution. I had a great time visiting it yesterday, so how could I have time to pay attention to this?
After watching a movie and waiting for the curtain call to end, Chen Xueru glanced at Li Ye with a rosy complexion, bit her lip, and knocked on Li Ye's arm.
She really doesn't know what the movie is about now.
"Where are we going now?"
Li Ye looked at his watch and saw that it was only 11 o'clock.
"Let's go, let's have a meal first. In the afternoon I have to find Zhang Xiaohu and ask him if he has a more reliable professional master. I'll do some research at home."
In fact, Li Ye couldn't help it. He didn't have many relatives in Sijiu City. The original owner used to have an inhumane temper and didn't have many friends.
As for asking people in the courtyard to inquire, Li Ye didn't even think twice. Even Yi Zhonghai was secretly using the money sent by He Yuzhu's father and counting on those few pieces of information. How much fake wine did he have to drink to do this?
"Why are you looking for him? Just look for me directly. How about this? I'll take you to see a carpenter in the afternoon. Your ancestors built the house for the man on the east side."
When Li Ye heard Chen Xueru's words, he nodded noncommittally.
The two of them waited until the people in the cinema were almost gone before they walked out slowly.
As soon as they went out, the two of them were discussing where to go for dinner, when they unexpectedly met Chen Xueru's acquaintance again.
The woman dragged Chen Xueru and gossiped with Li Ye for a long time, and finally sent her away, not even interested in looking for a place.
Chen Xueru suggested that we go to Li Ye's house for dinner. Li Ye thought about it and agreed.
He had never planned to play with Chen Xueru. Even though Chen Xueru had a reputation for divorce, she was still brand new and unopened. The only problem was the child. Li Ye was determined not to raise a son for others. He Yuzhu had learned a lesson recently.
There is Dorgon a little further away.
Even a prince can't handle it, so why should we?
How sick do you have to be to have your son raised by someone else?
It’s just that we are just getting together now, and we will mention it to Chen Xueru later.
Chen Xueru wanted to go to Li Ye's house because she wanted to know more about Li Ye, his living habits, what he liked to smoke, what he drank, where he lived, and how many people were in his family.
She wanted to prevent Li Ye from escaping from her grasp.
After all, such high-quality men are rare.
