Chapter 1334 I am just the eldest brother, I can’t take care of other things
After Li Ye came out of the restroom, he did not go back to Wen Leyu and Sophia, but found a seat with a good view and sat down again. There were almost no people in the cafe anyway, so there were plenty of empty seats.
Then he carefully observed the interior of the cafe and the street outside again to check if there was anything unusual.
Having watched too many Mission Impossible movies in his previous life, Li Ye always wondered if there was an Ian Hunt hiding nearby, so from the moment he arrived at the cafe, he labeled all the people around him as "suspicious."
Although Wen Leyu was an official investigator who openly used foreign exchange to do business, who knew what kind of environment Sofia was in? What if she aroused suspicion from some people?
Only after Li Ye used his extraordinary keen observation skills to check all the people around him and confirmed that they were all ordinary people did he breathe a sigh of relief.
To be honest, when Wen Leyu was assigned to contact Sophia, Li Ye was a little unhappy.
My wife has provided the funds, and she is here to supervise them so that they don't spend money recklessly. She will just share the credit in the end. Why should she show up in public? There are so many people vying to take the lead! Isn't it better to let them come and negotiate?
But Wen Leyu's words, "Why should we share the credit for our family's achievements with others?" made Li Ye speechless.
Women just like to calculate. No one can take advantage of me. I feel comfortable only when I take all the credit.
After Sun Xianjin came out of the bathroom, he also sat in Li Ye's seat, while Bian Jingjing, who followed behind him, was a little hesitant.
"Xianjin, why don't you go over and help translate? I think Sophia's Chinese is not very good."
Sun Xianjin glanced at Bian Jingjing and whispered, "Don't talk, and obey the rules."
Bian Jingjing stopped talking immediately.
Although she quietly took care of Sun Xianjin at home, she was a smart person and knew that Sun Xianjin was her most important support in life, and Li Ye was a great help to Sun Xianjin.
So Jingjing could normally have a little temper, but when Sun Xianjin got serious with her, she would definitely obey and support him unconditionally.
When Sun Xianjin brought her here today, Sun Xianjin did not tell Bian Jingjing clearly what he was going to do, but Bian Jingjing could guess a little bit.
After so many years of contact and inquiries, Bian Jingjing knew that Wen Leyu was from a general's family and was a genuine descendant of a general.
Now that Wen Leyu is discussing something with Sophia alone, it must be the “big deal” that he had expected.
Although Bian Jingjing has her own selfish desires and hopes that Sun Xianjin can be deeply involved in this big deal, everything is excessive or insufficient, and you cannot take away what others don't give you.
So even though Bian Jingjing was itching to go see them, she still suppressed her curiosity and silently watched Wen Leyu and Sophia chatting and laughing over there.
After a long while, Sophia politely shook hands with Bian Jingjing, then stood up and walked out of the coffee shop. During this time, she seemed not to notice Li Ye and Sun Xianjin who were sitting on the other side.
Sun Xianjin blinked his eyes, feeling a little lost.
We were old friends and we almost hugged each other just now, how come she seems like Mrs. Niu now?
Because Bian Jingjing and Sun Xianjin were present, Li Ye was not in a position to ask Wen Leyu how the talk with Sophia went. Sun Xianjin and Bian Jingjing also "obeyed the discipline" and got in the car and returned to the hotel without saying a word.
But after getting in the car, Wen Leyu started talking to liven up the atmosphere: "Hey, guess how old Sophia is this year?"
Li Ye looked at Sun Xianjin and said, "She should be about the same as us, right? She and Sun Xianjin are in the same grade."
"That's not right!"
Wen Leyu held up four fingers: "She is four years younger than us. She is only twenty-four this year. She had excellent grades when she was in school and went to college at the age of fourteen."
Bian Jingjing was surprised and said, "She's only 24? Why do I feel like she's almost 30? How come there's such a big difference?"
Wen Leyu nodded and said, "Yes, yes! She asked me how old I was, and I told her I was 28. She didn't believe it at all, and even said with a smile that she would check my entry records to see if I was that much older than her."
Sun Xianjin said helplessly: "Su E people are like this. When they are thirteen or fourteen, they are like the girls in our country. Once they are over thirty, most of them will look very old, but there are exceptions. There is a teacher in our school who is over forty, but he still looks like he is in his thirties."
Bian Jingjing immediately said: "Then she must have put on makeup. Anyway, I have been in Su'e for almost a year, and I have never seen anyone in her forties who looks old."
“.”
After listening to what Bian Jingjing said, Li Ye couldn't help but admire her for being a natural "straight man".
[Don't you know the physical characteristics of Sue women? Why did you seem so surprised when you heard that Sophia was only 24 years old? ]
But think about it, when Li Ye first met Bian Jingjing at school, he knew that she was a "smart and motivated" girl who had been practicing the skills of supporting actor for many years.
As she was talking, Bian Jingjing suddenly said, "It's really strange, they were really pretty when they were teenagers. Jin Peng and Huo Renqiang carefully trained several girls, all of whom were sixteen or seventeen years old."
Li Ye: "."
[You are just a supporting role, why are you talking about those trivial things? Food and sex are part of human nature. Our ancestors have long told you that it is normal for a grown man to stay away from home, eat and drink, and raise two girls, isn't that human nature? ]
But after hearing this, Wen Leyu blinked and slowly turned to look at Li Ye.
[Why are you looking at me? I am just their "big brother" and I can't control their crotches. ]
Li Ye quickly changed the subject and said, "I know why Su'e girls age so quickly. It's because their skin is very special and it's difficult for them to lock in moisture.
It's OK when you're young and your skin is elastic, but after you turn 20, your skin loses its vitality and loses moisture faster, just like a flower, it wilts without moisture.
And because there is no moisture protection, their skin is not UV-resistant, so it is easy to develop spots."
“.”
Li Ye's words really attracted the attention of the two girls. They asked quietly in surprise: "Li Ye, how do you know all this?"
"This... I feel a little ashamed to say this, I am actually angry. A few days ago, a classmate told me that among the batches of international students in Beijing University, several girls married white men.
You said you would marry, so just marry! And you came back to show off to everyone, saying that if you want to marry, you will marry a white man, who has fair skin, is gentle and kind, and respects women very much, unlike the women in our flower-growing families who spend all day around the stove."
"They are talking nonsense!"
Bian Jingjing said decisively: "In the past six months since I came to Su'e, most of the men I met were alcoholics. Some of them would fight with their wives after drinking. Gentle and kind? Forget it.
I've heard of the ones you mentioned, they married into the country just to get naturalization, and they respect women! They don't do housework or cook after they get married."
"They are just one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes, and I suspect that they have some bad intentions and ulterior motives when they promote that."
Li Ye was surprised.
Just now, he saw Bian Jingjing encouraging Wen Leyu to let this "big sister" put a stop to the evil trend of Jin Peng and Aqiang being unfaithful outside, and thought that this was the first generation of feminism! He never thought that Bian Jingjing thought differently from him.
When she saw the West at its peak, she did not blindly worship the West, but followed the principle of "seeing is believing" and analyzed the motives of some people's behavior very rationally. Her mind was quite clear.
And even though she is now a strong woman who earns extra money for her husband, she also believes that she should cook at home.
This one is very similar to Wen Leyu.
Wen Leyu can be considered a lady from a wealthy family! She still cooks for Li Ye at home.
