Chapter 16 Blind Date

Lu Qiaoge felt that what Old Lu said made sense.

Comrade Lao Lu has always been so confident.

One good thing about this era is that the gap between the rich and the poor is not that big.

Moreover, being vain and not living a frugal life is wrong and will be criticized.

Otherwise, the Liang family would not have waited until now and would have cancelled the engagement long ago.

Old Lady Lu said to Meng Xia: "Don't bother with those useless things. Hurry up and help Qiao Ling choose clothes and pack them properly."

Old Lu is an open-minded parent. He told his third daughter, "Don't be too particular. Just take it easy."

He also mentioned Lu Qiaoge by name: "His family has Zhao Jinbao's elder sister coming with them, but we as parents will not go, so you should accompany Qiao Ling to see him."

Lu Qiaoling happily pulled Lu Qiaoge's arm and said, "Second sister, I won't be afraid if you accompany me."

If it were before, Lu Qiaoling might not have said this.

But today, after witnessing my second sister's elegance, I was truly convinced and full of admiration.

——

Chunfeng State-owned Hotel is an old hotel with a history of one hundred years.

The European style of that time is retained both inside and outside.

An old-fashioned ceiling fan was turning slowly under the stained glass dome, and the sound of bicycle bells could be heard from the shadows of the trees outside the window.

It was Lu Qiaoling’s first time here, and besides being nervous, she was more curious.

Of course, this was also Lu Qiaoge’s first time, and she didn’t expect that the meeting place arranged by the Zhao family would be here.

It seems that he takes this blind date very seriously.

Lu Qiaoling asked Lu Qiaoge nervously: "Second sister, what do you think of me today?"

Lu Qiaoge observed carefully and commented with satisfaction: "Bright eyes, white teeth, and graceful figure."

Today, Lu Qiaoling was wearing a goose yellow floral dress.

The eighteen-year-old girl is like a blooming forsythia.

In the 1970s, most people found a partner and got married at the age of 18 or 19.

She said to Lu Qiaoling, "Wait for me a moment. I'll go ask the waiter if anyone has arrived."

If Zhao Jinbao didn't arrive, it would seem a bad idea for them to go in first.

"Comrade, I want to ask you something." Lu Qiage stopped a waitress at the stairs, but as soon as the other party saw her, she understood something.

The girl in front of me has a slender figure, with amber pupils with fragments of light floating in them. The slightly raised corners of her eyes make her look more delicate, especially her pair of peach blossom eyes that are like rippling autumn water. When she smiles, she is like a crescent moon, smart and soft.

She is so charming, and at first glance she is the girl that the noble and important person is waiting for.

She smiled and asked, "Comrade, what's your name?"

Lu Qiaoge hesitated for a moment and replied politely, "No need to mention your last name, Lu."

"Oh, are you really Comrade Lu?" Before Lu Qiage could finish his words, the waitress, who had preconceived ideas, did not pay attention to the difference between the second and fourth tones in pronunciation.

She led the way enthusiastically: "Please follow me."

Just now she was privately guessing what the person the guest in Qingsong Elegant Room was waiting for looked like, and now she felt that it should be someone like Lu Qiaoge.

At this time, the enthusiastic waitress had already gone halfway up the stairs, but Lu Qiage felt something was wrong.

She turned around and called Lu Qiaoling, who suddenly became nervous. She covered her stomach and sweated on her forehead. "Second sister, wait for me for a few minutes. I'll be back soon."

After saying that, the man ran away.

Lu Qiaoge was speechless. He just said what his grandma said - a lazy donkey will produce more shit and piss.

Lu Qiaoge didn't want to go alone to meet Zhao Jinbao and his family, so he decided to wait for his sister to come back before going together.

Unexpectedly, the waitress called her, "Comrade Lu, come with me. I want to tell you, this is our first meeting. Although we are the women, we shouldn't make the men wait too long, right?"

Lu Qiage felt that what the waitress said was not entirely right, but it was very pertinent. Anyway, she had also met Zhao Jinbao and Sister Zhao, so after thanking them, Lu Qiage hurriedly followed them.

Walking on the soft carpet, Lu Qiaoge's eyes swept across the oil paintings on the walls of the hotel.

These oil paintings have a very long history, and it is not easy for them to be preserved.

That is, after walking a dozen steps and admiring two paintings, the waiter stopped in front of a door and said, "It's just inside."

After saying that, she opened the door. With a slight "creaking" sound, the setting sun was shining through the blinds. The fine golden light was imprinted on the tall figure of the man, making his cold brows seem to soften a little.

Lu Qiaoge was stunned.

How can this be Zhao Jinbao? Isn’t this the military representative Qin Hengzhi?

He was not wearing a military uniform, just a simple white shirt with the cuffs casually rolled up to his elbows, revealing the strong lines of his forearms.

"Comrade Lu?"

He seemed a little surprised, his eyelashes casting a faint shadow under his eyes. His voice was obviously cold, but now it has a bit of warmth.

The waitress didn't suspect anything and even winked at Lu Qiage, then considerately closed the door.

Before there was a knock on the door, Qin Hengzhi was deep in thought. He didn't know that the organization had selected a dozen female comrades of appropriate age for him.

But when the woman's information was delivered to him, he knew that it must be his grandfather who made the special call.

Even though he had stated that he had no immediate plans to get married, his grandfather still had a way of turning his personal problems into a certain office's top priority.

Before the transfer order came down, he needed to find the most dignified way to exit the blind date and not disappoint his grandfather.

However, he didn't expect that the person who came was Lu Qiaoge.

He frowned. There was no such girl in the information.

[The girl in the white shirt who wants to go on a blind date is called Lu Min. Lu Qiaoge, you've entered the wrong door! ]

A familiar sound of crunching came from outside. It turned out to be the naughty swallows flapping their wings and making a noise, pecking at the colored glass, making a tinkling sound.

The tabby cat squatting on the windowsill also nodded in agreement.

Lu Qiaoge burst out laughing.

Lu, Lu!

In some noisy environments, it is understandable that the waitress cannot tell the difference.

She took a half step back, her eyes curved into crescents: "Representative Qin, I walked into the wrong room, I'm so sorry!"

I didn't expect that a person like him would also go on a blind date.

I heard that the Qin family is a noble family in Beidu, Qin Heng’s grandfather is in a high position of power, and his parents seem to be big names in technology.

I don’t know which young lady he is going on a blind date with.

Qin Hengzhi was in a relaxed manner, and asked casually, "Would you like to have a cup of tea before leaving?"

He saw beads of sweat on the tip of the little girl's nose.

I also saw her pursing her lips unconsciously, maybe she was thirsty.

Lu Qiaoge knew that the other person was being polite, so he said obediently: "Thank you, I'm not thirsty, I still have to go find my sister, I won't bother you anymore!"

Qin Hengzhi naturally did not force it and looked out the window with a calm expression.

In the setting sun, there is a swallow climbing on the window frame, looking at him?

Is this an illusion?

Lu Qiaoge put his hand on the door handle and suddenly remembered something. He turned around and explained for the waitress: "I told the waitress my last name was Lu. Maybe I didn't pronounce it correctly, or maybe the environment was a little noisy at the time, so the waitress didn't hear clearly and led me in. Please don't blame her."

Qin Hengzhi turned around and saw the little girl at the door explaining seriously. Rarely, a hint of teasing flashed in his eyes.

"You speak clearly and articulately. Lu and Lu will be able to hear you clearly if they pay attention."

Lu Qiaoge's eyes widened: "Why, are you going to criticize her to the hotel manager?"

Qin Hengzhi paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "You did remind me."

Lu Qiaoge: ...

So she talks too fast?
