Yan Yi? was taking off his coat.
"I'll help you."
Zhou Mo took Yan Yi's coat with a smile.
It’s the same one from yesterday.
Yan thanked him with a loud voice.
Zhou Mo said casually: "It's quite cold here in Dongjiang. The clothes you wear are a bit too little."
Yan Yi looked a little uneasy and said, "It's warmer in Shanghai. I was in such a hurry to get out that I forgot."
Didn't you say you had nothing to do? Why are you in such a hurry to go out again?
This contradictory statement made Zhou Mo suspicious, but she was not a nosy person and did not ask any further questions.
He just told Han Chen to turn up the air conditioner temperature.
Han Chen did as he was told.
Then he turned on the TV in the living room and followed Zhou Mo into the kitchen.
"Why are you here? Come and chat with Sister Yi. I'll be there soon." Zhou Mo glanced at him.
"Nothing to say," Han Chen took the plate from Zhou Mo's hand, "I'll help you."
Then he helped Zhou Mo serve the dishes.
Zhou Mo shook his head helplessly.
Han Chen still has some training to do regarding receiving guests.
He was like a shy child, and I was like the head of the family.
He was at a loss and could only revolve around her.
Fortunately, there was not much work in the kitchen, and Han Chen brought out the last dish.
Zhou Mo took the rice cooker out as well.
Han Chen went back to the kitchen to get the dishes.
Zhou Mo called Yan Yiming, "The food is ready, Sister Yiming, come and eat."
Yan Yi stood up and saw four dishes and a soup on the table. He said apologetically, "I'm sorry to bother you guys with coming here and preparing a whole meal just for me."
Zhou Mo said with a smile, "This is your first time here, so of course we have to be a little more formal. Han Chen and I were thinking about eating out before, as neither of us are very good cooks. Later, we decided that home cooking would be better. You've never been to our house, so we have to let you get acquainted with it, right? You'll be welcome to our house anytime you come to Dongjiang in the future."
Yan Yi?: "You're welcome. I don't come to Dongjiang very often. Next time... I'll see if there's a chance to be with Han Chi."
Zhou Mo: "Sure."
The three of them gathered around the table, Zhou Mo and Han Chen on one side, and Yan Yi on the opposite side.
Yan Yi hadn't sat down yet and was just about to ask where the bathroom was.
Han Chen pointed in the direction of the restroom and reminded: "Wash your hands first."
So embarrassing.
Yan Yi smiled and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.
Zhou Mo quickly tried to make amends, saying, "Han Chen didn't mean anything else. It's all my fault. I'm a bit of a germaphobe and it caused him a stress reaction."
Yan Yi?: "It's okay. He's a doctor, he can understand."
Fortunately, Yan Yi is easy to talk to.
Otherwise, with Han Chen's current sour face, Zhou Mo really didn't know how to make up for it.
Han Chen has always had hostility towards Yan Yi, but for Han Chi's sake, he just treated him coldly and didn't go so far as to say bad things to him.
There must be a reason why Han Chen acted like this. He is not a narrow-minded person who would target someone for no reason.
Although Zhou Mo didn't know the reason.
During the meal, Zhou Mo and Yan Yi talked a lot about Dongjiang.
Speaking of Eleven in particular, Zhou Mo asked, "I heard from Xiao Qi and Xiao Zhao that you took them to a resort on the Eleventh. That place is still in Yushan. My uncle's family is also in Yushan. I haven't been there for a long time. I didn't know there was a resort there."
Yan Yi said: "It's an experimental base for poverty alleviation. There are many local specialties and some scattered natural and tourist resources. It can't be developed into a scenic spot, but it can be turned into a resort. Combining the surrounding agricultural products to create a resort with Dongjiang characteristics will definitely attract many people from the city to spend money there, and in turn boost the local economy."
Zhou Mo: "It sounds great."
Yan Yi?: "Yes, but the resort hasn't officially opened yet, and some related procedures have not been completed."
Zhou Mo: "Did you design that too?"
Yan Yi said, "No. It was a local village official who came up with the idea. Coincidentally, he was also Han Chi's college classmate. We had dinner together before he left Shanghai. When he heard about my visit to Dongjiang, he made a special trip to Dongjiang to help him refine the design of the resort policy."
Zhou Mo: "A college student from Shanghai comes to Yushan to be a village official? That's really rare."
Yan Yi?: "Yes, and he is not from Mount Yu."
Zhou Mo sighed, such a person must be a person with great love.
Otherwise, whoever graduated from a prestigious university would be willing to stay in a small village and do muddy and unbearable work.
The two chatted a little more about Yan Yi's work. Zhou Mo was very curious about the knowledge in the field that he didn't understand.
So I asked Yan Yi a lot of questions about his work scope and interesting things at work.
Most of them are related to the manufacturing industry in towns and villages, and basically involve a series of measures such as how to rely on the towns and villages’ own characteristics to build production bases for related products, and then connect with the sales chain.
Most of the time, they are also exploring related industrial models by imitating others.
There are very few people with truly creative thinking in their industry.
Yan Yi? herself also said that most of what they did was just talk on paper.
As they chatted, the topic turned to Zhou Mo.
Yan Yi asked her if her work was going well recently, and then turned the topic to having children.
Zhou Mo didn't know how to answer.
Han Chen came to her rescue and said, "I'm busy with my promotion at the moment, so I don't have time to think about the child."
In one sentence, he brought all the problems upon himself and at the same time left Yan Yi speechless.
Yan Yi had no choice but to change the topic and talk about Qi Yan again.
"Did Qi Yan buy another car recently?" Yan Yi asked.
"No," Zhou Mo said, "It's still the same Cadillac."
"I saw him showing off a new Mercedes-Benz SUV on his WeChat Moments, and I thought he bought another car."
"It might be his brother's car."
"Is that so?" Yan Yi asked again, "I remember you also bought a Mercedes-Benz, right?"
"Yeah, it feels good to drive," Zhou Mo said. "Do you want to buy a car too? You might consider my model. It's quite suitable for girls to drive."
Yan Yi smiled and said, "I have a car, also a Mercedes, but it's a C260."
Zhou Mo was slightly embarrassed.
Han Chen, who was standing by, suddenly said, "You already have a car, so why did you ask Third Brother to buy you a new one?"
His tone was a bit aggressive, so Zhou Mo quickly stopped him and immediately apologized to Yan Yi.
Yan Yi, perhaps accustomed to Han Chen's rudeness, just smiled and did not blame him.
Whether to buy a car or not is ultimately a matter between Han Chi and Yan Yi? No matter who pays or how much, Han Chen, as an outsider, has no right to interfere.
Han Chen's standpoint is untenable.
No matter what the situation is between Yan Yi and Han Chi, Yan Yi is a guest now, and they should maintain proper hospitality.
Zhou Mo managed to maintain the awkward situation and finally waited until the end of the meal.
As soon as he said it was over, Zhou Mo immediately arranged for Han Chen to go to the bedroom to "rest".
I was busy cleaning up the mess on the table
