Chapter 190 Amusement Park
The coffee shop on the corner is dimly lit and extremely quiet.
Tian Xin sat in the window seat, propped up by her arms, staring at the cars coming and going on the street in a daze.
She has been sitting here for more than half an hour, just waiting for someone.
"If it still doesn't work, today's trip will be in vain!" She frowned, feeling extremely uneasy.
She had already traveled all morning to the east, west, and south of the county, meeting with three logistics providers. Regardless of their size or interest, they all rejected her cooperation requests without much discussion, upon hearing that she wanted to open a logistics point in the village, with its numerous requirements.
The one I'm about to meet is the last one, and I have to capture him no matter what this time.
North Street was a bustling area in the county, and while the coffee wasn't particularly good, it was quiet, allowing her to gather her thoughts and ensure the conversation went smoothly.
After about ten minutes, the wind chimes at the entrance of the cafe made a "ding-ling-ding-ling" sound. Tian Xin turned her head and looked over, her eyes suddenly widened in shock.
"Why is it you?"
Li Jing rushed in from the doorway, ran straight to her, picked up the coffee on the table and drank it: "I'm so thirsty, it's too hot today!"
"Hey, I've drunk this..." She raised her hand to stop him, but it was obviously too late.
Li Jing finished her coffee in a few sips, picked up the napkin on the table and wiped her mouth, then said: "It's okay, I don't dislike you!"
"Why are you here? I don't think... I told you I was here!"
Li Jing didn't respond, but turned around and walked over to sit across from her. He leaned in close to her, looked her over, and said quietly, "Are you unhappy?"
"No!" Tian Xin smiled at her, a little confused. Seeing Li Jing sit down, she turned to the waiter and shouted, "Give me a cup of coffee."
The coffee was quickly delivered. Li Jing took it, thanked the waitress, and smiled at her, saying, "Stop pretending. You've been rejected several times this morning, haven't you?"
"How did you know?" Tian Xin was startled at first, then came to her senses and sighed: "Did they tell you?"
"They didn't just tell me! They were practically accusing me, weren't they?" Li Jing said, "Do you know what they said?"
"How do you say that?"
"What do you mean? Haha," Li Jing leaned back, cleared her throat, and imitated the others' tone while gesturing: "Your classmate is really too much. He hasn't discussed anything yet, and he's already making a lot of demands. It's obvious that he doesn't want to cooperate with us! How can you do business like this...blah blah..."
"What?" Tian Xin was immediately shocked. "That's what they all said?"
"Not all of them are like this?" Li Jing recovered and said, "I might have exaggerated a bit, but I got the point across. They think your demands are too harsh and they can't cooperate! So, I'm asking her to hold off for now and talk about this somewhere else later!"
"What do you mean?" Tian Xin looked puzzled: "Why do we need to change places?"
Li Jing held the coffee cup, lowered her head, and remained silent for a few seconds before hesitating, "I... have made a decision, and I need to confirm it with you right now. It doesn't matter whether this logistics company can cooperate or not. Don't worry, I will definitely solve the problem for you today!"
Without waiting for Tian Xin to respond, she stood up and said, "Follow me!"
"No, where are you going?"
"You'll know later!" Li Jing got up, went to the bar to pay the bill, and pulled her out the door.
Li Jing came by car. After leaving the coffee shop, they headed west and headed straight to the entrance of the largest amusement park in the county.
"Why are you here?"
Tian Xin looked out of the car window and saw a pink castle-like building standing in front of her, surrounded by plaster statues of cartoon dolls. Next to the parking lot, a musical fountain was "tick-tick" and dancing to the music, which was indeed pleasing to the eye.
This amusement park is newly built, reportedly costing over 100 million yuan, and is a novel initiative of the county's tourism development. It boasts a comprehensive range of facilities, comparable to Disneyland! Adults and children alike can enjoy a truly enjoyable experience all in one place.
Tian Xin passed by several times but never went in. I wonder why Li Jing wanted to bring her here today?
"Get out of the car!" Li Jing said to her as he unbuckled his seat belt.
The two got out of the car and walked towards the door.
Li Jing walked away while shouting into the phone: "Where are you? Everyone's here, why aren't you coming out?"
I don't know what was said on the other end, she shouted impatiently: "Hurry up, hang up!" and hung up the phone.
Tian Xin was confused. She wanted to ask, but seeing Li Jing's bad face, she hesitated for a long time before asking: "Who is it?"
"Who else could it be?" Li Jing glanced at her and said with a smile, "Your boyfriend!"
"My boyfriend..." Tian Xin swallowed half of the words quickly and said helplessly: "I explained to you the other day that we are not!"
"Come on!" Li Jing put her arm around her shoulders and spoke to her earnestly, "Even though you've tried your best to deny it, your eyes betray you! I can see that you like him!"
"I……"
"Okay, I'm not going to steal it from you! Don't be afraid!"
well……
Tian Xin really regretted holding Lin Zhou's hand out of a moment of weakness that day. The way he rubbed his fingers made her think he also had insecurities, and she didn't think too much about it in the heat of the moment.
Who knew that this single gesture would be seen through by Li Jing? That day, she had asked what their relationship was, and Lin Zhou hadn't said anything. Li Jing saw no denial as tacit agreement, and her explanation was completely futile.
She didn't know why she had to explain, but she couldn't help herself in that situation. After she finished explaining, she saw Lin Zhou's eyes darken for a moment, and she felt an inexplicable feeling, a dull pain in her heart.
The two have not been in contact for the past few days.
After they had walked a few steps, Lin Zhou caught up with them from behind, sweating profusely.
It's already April and the weather is getting hotter.
It is a sunny day today, and it is afternoon now. The sun is burning my face.
Lin Zhou was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and jeans, looking quite refreshing.
Tian Xin took out a tissue from her bag and handed it to him: "Where did you come from? Why is your head all sweaty?"
Lin Zhou took the paper and wiped it. After catching his breath, he told her: "There's no parking space. We went around in circles!"
"Oh!" Tian Xin responded casually, turning her head away and not looking at him, feeling a little uneasy.
Lin Zhou had never taken his eyes away since he stood in front of her. His gaze was too fiery, and she once again felt the strong throbbing in her heart.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, Li Jing poked Lin Zhou's arm and said, "Well, I'll go buy the tickets first. You two can come over later!"
"Okay!" Lin Zhou responded softly, his eyes still fixed on her.
As soon as Li Jing left, he pulled Tian Xin into his arms: "I missed you so much!"
