C1 (1/2)
pomegranate looked at the woman in the yellow dress in the mirror. A pair of big black eyes were embedded under her willow leaf eyebrows. Under her small nose was a cherry lips. Her lips were slightly parted, revealing her white teeth. The contrast between white and red made the pomegranate feel flustered.
He turned around and glanced at Jiang Yan, who was still carrying her bag, and said: ”Mom, do you really think it's good for me to wear this way?”
Jiang Yan put the last piece of cosmetics into the pomegranate bag, zipped it up and slowly walked over. She glanced at her daughter in front of her and smiled. ”Good, very good.”
”But why do I feel so uncomfortable?” pomegranate glanced at the white T-shirt and jeans hanging in the closet. ”It's still easier to wear pants.”
The moment pomegranate's hand touched the shelf, Jiang Yan, who was behind her, suddenly slapped her back. ”pomegranate, how many times have I told you? Don't make a girl act like a man all day.”
The pomegranate withdrew its hand and looked down at its toes.
”How old do you think you are?” At this moment, Jiang Yan began to criticize him, ”25, he's not young anymore. If it were our generation, children would be running all over the ground.”
The pomegranate wrung its hands and whispered, ”This is not that era anymore.”
Jiang Yan was so angry that she sat down on the chair opposite him. ”You've learned how to talk back to me?”
The pomegranate looked up and tried to explain, but when she saw her mother's flushed face, she couldn't bring herself to speak and once again lowered her head.
”Whether you want to or not, you have to go to C City and see this boy.” Jiang Yan saw that pomegranate kept its head down without saying anything, so she softened her tone. ”This time, this boy was introduced by your C city's auntie. It's not good if you don't go!”
Jiang Yan hurriedly stuffed the photo she prepared earlier into her daughter's hands, ”Look, he looks pretty good. From what your aunt said, this young man graduated from a famous university and studied finance while he was still in school. He's 1.8 meters tall, and his unit is in the bank, so it's very stable …”
Jiang Yan was still talking when the pomegranate didn't want to hear any more. He turned around and picked up the bag on the sofa, placing it on his shoulder. He looked at Jiang Yan and said, ”Mom, shall I go first?”
Jiang Yan didn't expect her daughter to be so obedient this time, so she stopped nagging and emphasized the way they met, ”At Lushan Road's Jili Coffee Shop, I'm wearing a beige suit.”
”Got it.”
The pomegranate hurriedly went downstairs. It looked at its watch in front of the building. There were still three hours until the promised time.
The pomegranate calculated roughly, then took the bus to the highway for an hour. If she took the bus to Lushan Road for half an hour, she would still have an hour and a half.
The pomegranate decided to take a walk around the Wenxuan bookstore in C City to see the latest issue of the medical paper.
Fascinated by medicine, pomegranate has been determined to be a good doctor since childhood, but because of her middle and lower grades in high school, she only studied for five years in local medical school.
During the internship, pomegranate was assigned to the Red Cross Hospital in Garin County. It took three years for pomegranates to be treated from a medical practitioner to a minor surgeon. However, the cases they treated were only ordinary external injuries.
The longer the pomegranate stayed at the Red Cross Hospital, the darker the future became.
It was rare for him to have time to rest today, so he still had a reason to come to C City. At Wenxuan Bookstore, pomegranate quickly immersed in the sea of books.
When the pomegranate remembered its blind date in C City, it looked up at the clock on the wall of the bookstore in a hurry. It was less than half an hour away.
pomegranate put down the book in his hand and quickly left the bookstore. He waited anxiously for a long time at the bus stop outside. The bus to Lushan Road had arrived late. After placing the coin, pomegranate looked at the vacant seat and chose the seat closest to the back door.
From time to time, they looked up at the road ahead. As soon as the traffic lights stopped, pomegranate panicked.
It wasn't that she was worried that the guy had left early, but rather that she wouldn't have the face to see her aunt again during New Year's Day in the future.
When they heard the news about Lushan Road on the bus, pomegranate had already stood at the back door. Braking and opening the door, pomegranate was the first to rush down. But she had only taken two steps when she did not know where to go.
What Mom said at home, pomegranate at this time only remembered half of the coffee shop, beige jacket.
The road leading to the mountain was very long. With just a glance, he could see that there were five cafes. He did not know where he should go!
Ye Zichen quickly took out his phone from his backpack and called his home, but no one answered for a long time. Failing to give up, pomegranate called her mother's cell phone again, but also didn't answer.
Seeing that time was running out and that she didn't want to wait any longer, she decided to try her luck in these cafés.
A beige jacket is the key point for pomegranate searching for the guy.
As soon as he walked to the door of the café, pomegranate glanced at the window and froze. There were several men in beige jackets, men of all ages, singles, and company in the cafe.
