Chapter 331 Meeting Father-in-law
After leaving the guild hall, Jesus and Elsa went directly to the Qijiao Ancient Town in Mingzhu.
Qijiao Ancient Town is located in the southwest of Mingzhu. It is a historical town that has both the natural scenery of the Jiangnan water town and a long-standing cultural connotation.
After arriving, Jesus got out of the car very gentlemanly and opened the door for Elsa.
Aisha hesitated and said, "Why don't you call Tang and ask him again. Maybe he really has something urgent to ask?"
"No thanks." Jesus decisively rejected Elsa's proposal and said, "I promised yesterday to accompany you today. Nothing is more important than this."
Elsa showed a very shy look on her face, and nodded slowly: "Go buy me a bottle of water first, I'll call the company."
"Okay." Jesus immediately ran to the shop on the side.
"idiot!"
The tenderness on Elsa's face suddenly faded. She took out her phone, dialed a number, and asked, "How's it going over there?"
"Tang Shuo looked very angry. He went back to the office without even having breakfast." A man's slightly hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Very good." Aisha thought for a moment and then said, "Continue to observe and send someone to arrange things for the evening. There must not be any accidents." The fastest updates are on Black Rock.
"Yes, ma'am," came the reply from the other end of the line.
Seeing Jesus walking towards them, Aisha immediately changed her tone and said, "I'll email you the information later. Please review it."
After a pause, Aisha continued to herself: "Okay. Goodbye!"
Throwing the phone into her backpack, Elsa took the water handed to her by Jesus with a smile on her face and said, "I have taken care of my business. No one will disturb us today."
Jesus smiled and nodded, then pulled Elsa directly into the ancient town.
Until the evening, Jesus and Elsa had a simple meal before leaving the ancient town and heading to the Pearl Concert Hall.
As Jesus drove, he asked, "Will your father have any objections if we don't pick him up?"
“No, they are a theatre troupe coming here to perform together and they asked not to be accepted.
"This is my first time, so I'm a little nervous." Jesus smiled and asked, "Do my clothes fit?"
"No problem."
“…”
As the two were chatting and laughing, the car soon arrived at the Pearl Concert Hall.
Because the two had calculated the time in advance, ticket checking had already begun when they arrived.
Elsa took out two tickets and walked in with Jesus. When the musical officially began, Elsa pointed to a burly man sitting in front of a cello on the stage and whispered, "That's my father."
Jesus nodded, closed his eyes and listened to the symphony.
Symphony has a rigorous structure and rich means of expression. Its expression techniques are clear and distinct, and can bring the audience into the musical mood and imagination space.
But in fact, not everyone likes to listen to this thing, at least Jesus doesn't like it very much. If it weren't for Elsa, I'm afraid he would have left directly at the beginning.
After finally making it to the end of the first half, Jesus applauded and then said to Aisha, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Elsa nodded, and after seeing Jesus leave, she turned off her phone and whispered instructions into it.
When the announcement in the concert hall began to remind people to take their seats, Jesus walked over reluctantly. However, when he appeared in front of Elsa, his face returned to its original bright smile.
With Jesus in a drowsy state, the second half of the song ended quickly.
After hearing the applause, Jesus reacted instantly and started clapping. Seeing that some people had already started to leave, Jesus gently nudged Elsa, who seemed still immersed in the music, and asked, "Have you contacted your father?"
Aisha opened her eyes and replied with a smile: "We've made the contact, we'll be there now."
"Where to?" Jesus asked.
"Come with me." Elsa stood up, took Jesus' arm and walked straight to the door.
…
More than half an hour later, under Aisha's guidance, the car stopped in front of a very distinctively decorated Western restaurant.
"We're here. This is a restaurant I stumbled upon. The atmosphere inside is great, and the steak tastes great." Elsa said with a smile, "But my father might need a little more time. I'll call and urge him."
"Don't worry." Jesus stopped Aisha and said, "Since he is already on his way, we can just wait for him."
Elsa hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."
Then, the two of them walked into the western restaurant.
As Christmas approaches, the restaurant has been decorated for Christmas, with beautifully wrapped small gifts placed everywhere.
Elsa looked at the almost empty restaurant and said to Jesus, "The environment here is great, isn't it?"
"Yes, very good." Jesus nodded.
After the two sat down, a young foreign waiter came forward and asked, "What can I do for you?"
"Sorry, we still have to wait for someone." Aisha said, "We'll order later."
"Okay." The waiter bowed politely and turned away.
Accompanied by the soothing and melodious piano music in the restaurant, Jesus and Elsa waited for a while, only to see the burly man who had just played the symphony on the stage, Elsa's father, walk in.
Elsa, who was sitting facing the restaurant door, stood up excitedly and said, "Dad."
Jesus then stood up and turned to look at the door. The burly man smiled kindly at Elsa, walked over, hugged Elsa, and then said to Jesus, "You must be Webb!"
"Yes, hello Mr. Surrey." Jesus shook hands with the burly man and said with a smile.
After the burly man, Sari, motioned for Jesus to sit down, he said to Aisha beside him, "Dear, how long will your company's overseas assignment take to end? If possible, come back with Dad this time."
Elsa shook her head and said, "It's not clear yet. Let's eat something first!"
"Okay." The burly man, Mr. Surrey, nodded and immediately called out, "Waiter!"
The young waiter who had just come to ask about Jesus and the other two came over and said with a smile, "What could you order?"
"What are you eating?" Sarri said to Jesus.
"Let's cook the steak medium-rare," Jesus replied.
"One medium-rare steak, two medium-rare," Sari said directly to the waiter without even asking Elsa. "And bring us a bottle of Mogo Pinot Noir."
"Okay." The waiter nodded, turned around and left.
"Dad, you still remember that I like to eat medium-rare steak." Aisha said to Sari with a touched look on her face.
"How could I forget that?" Sari smiled, patted Aisha's head, and then asked Jesus, "What do you do for a living?"
“I am a priest,” Jesus replied.
"priest?"
Sarri nodded, seemingly very satisfied, and said, "I agree that you can date my daughter."
Aisha smiled and helped Sari explain: "My father is a Christian."
"So you're one of us." Jesus said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Sarri. You're very generous."
At this time, the waiter had already pushed the food cart and brought over the food that the people had ordered.
Jesus took the initiative to help Aisha and Sari pour wine, then said with a smile: "To celebrate this moment, let's drink."
Sari and Aisha smiled and nodded, clinked their glasses with Jesus and took a sip of wine.
"Eat something first." Elsa pointed to the steak on the plate.
Jesus nodded, cut a piece of steak from the plate, and put it into his mouth.
After seeing this scene, Elsa, who had already cut the steak, suddenly put down the cutlery in her hand, and the smile on her face gradually faded.
Sari, who had been sitting next to Elsa and seemed very close to her, stood up and bowed his head respectfully to the side. You can find this site by searching on Baidu or Hao.
