Chapter 102: Giving a Tie
Wen Zhile looked around, picked up the menu and started translating.
Changsheng couldn't help but applaud: "Awesome."
He got a bottle of soda for Wen Zhile, and when he passed it over, he caught a glimpse of Zhou Jihuai, then handed the soda to him and jokingly said, "Brother Huai, here you go."
Zhou Jihuai: “…”
He pried open the bottle cap, placed it in front of the little girl, and calmly asked, "When is the interview? I'll take Zhizhi there."
Changsheng sat back down and said, "Why would I need an interview with this level?"
"When Director Zhang goes to find Professor Shu, Zhizhi, you will perform for Director Zhang. You will definitely be taken to the stage on the spot."
He thought that if his cousin's spoken English was just average, he would go and pester Aunt Zhang, and at least let her become a reserve anchor.
But who would have thought that his spoken English was so good.
If you don't look at the face, isn't this a foreigner? He can't tell them apart anyway.
"That's a good idea. We don't have to run to the TV station. Zhizhi, when you get home, tell your aunt about it. When Director Zhang goes to see her, she'll call you over."
"Okay."
"Then I will wait for my cousin in Taiwan."
Changsheng raised his glass to clink with Wen Zhile, but his glass touched Zhou Jihuai's.
He frowned and Shu Cheng'an smiled secretly.
Zhou Jihuai put down the cup and said, "Auntie Tang specializes in treating facial cramps. I'll take you there to get an injection some other day to treat it."
Shu Chengan happily added: "Brother Huai is right, my mother is best at acupuncture, Changsheng mentioned my name and gave me the acupuncture for free."
"Fuck you!"
After dinner, everyone separated. Shu Cheng'an returned to the bureau, Zhou Jihuai sent Wen Zhile back to the Xiangshan Road community and returned to the army, Changsheng returned to the station to prepare for the evening news broadcast, leaving Wen Zhile with nothing to do.
She went home and slept for a while. When she woke up at two o'clock in the afternoon, she was bored, so she applied the medicine, lay down and continued to sleep.
When she applied the medicine again on Sunday, she found that the marks on her neck had healed a lot.
On Monday morning, her throat no longer hurt and the marks were very shallow, but still quite noticeable because of her fair skin. She had classes at 10 a.m., so she went to the mall to buy a powder cake before that.
Open it after entering the car to cover the marks.
The powder cake had a faint rice aroma. The little girl sniffed it and said, "It smells really good."
Zhou Jihuai started the car.
"Brother, I've been bothering you so much lately. I bought you a tie."
Wen Zhile stuffed the powder into her schoolbag and took out a paper bag from it.
Her sister Zhou had everything she needed. After shopping for a while, she couldn't decide what to buy, so she bought a tie based on the salesperson's recommendation.
Zhou Jihuai blinked, no wonder it took so long to enter the mall.
“Take a look…”
“No need to look, I like it.”
He held the steering wheel, his lips curled up: "I like whatever you give me."
"..." Wen Zhile didn't know what to say, "Then I'll put it behind."
"Okay." He sent Wen Zhile downstairs to the dormitory and reminded her, "I have to hand over my personal phone when I go back this time. If you need me, just call the military line."
"Okay." Wen Zhile unbuckled his seat belt and picked up his schoolbag. "Let's go, bro. Bye~"
Zhou Jihuai watched her walk into the dormitory building and sighed.
This time when she goes to school, she will have to eat with a group of old men in the army again.
Zhou Jihuai's eyes flashed with reluctance, then he looked towards the back row and took the paper bag.
More than an hour later, the jeep drove into the southern military zone.
He did not drive directly to the training area as usual, but stopped the car as soon as he entered the 21st Regiment's site and walked to the training area.
The man was wearing the spring and autumn service uniform of an army officer. The combination of the army green shirt and the navy blue tie made him look very handsome. No, why is the tie red?
Yang Quan waved from a distance and asked with a smile: "Captain, what good news has happened to you? Your tie is very handsome."
Zhou Jihuai raised his eyebrows slightly: "How do you know that Comrade Xiao Wen gave me a new tie?"
