Chapter 14 Chapter 13 The First Kiss Like the First Snow

The thing I want to do most now is to do all kinds of things with you, whether it's climbing mountains or going to sea together, it doesn't matter what I do, what matters is that we are together. In the morning, when I woke up, I looked haggard, with two big dark circles under my eyes, obviously I didn't sleep well.Wu Julan must have guessed the reason for my insomnia and didn't ask anything. I said to Wu Julan: "A gentleman is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a biscuit. Neither the coral stone of snailed jade nor the fossil of nautilus is what grandpa likes, and it is useless for me to keep it in my hands. I want to sell them."

"To whom?" I blinked my eyes, unable to answer.This kind of thing can't be brought to the market and sold by shouting, right? "You contact Wu Jingjing and let her handle this for you." Yes indeed!When Wu Jingjing talked about the quality and market price, she must know someone well. I asked Jiang Yisheng for Wu Jingjing's phone number and called Wu Jingjing. After hearing what I said, Wu Jingjing agreed, "I will help you contact a friend to deal with this matter today. After get off work, I will come to you and ask Brother Ang to prepare a sumptuous dinner, and I will have a meal by the way."

When Wu Jingjing mentioned "dinner", her voice was particularly cheerful. I was a little puzzled. She likes Wu Julan's cooking so much? In the evening, Jiang Yisheng and Wu Jingjing came together. When Wu Jingjing saw the dishes on the table, she laughed so hard that she could hardly find her eyes.She said to me: "I never thought that I would be able to eat... such delicious food in my lifetime." After she finished speaking, before anyone else could pick up the chopsticks, she began to bury her head in the food regardless of her image. I think Jiang Yisheng, in order to catch up with the Witch Queen, shouldn't he learn how to cook?

Jiang Yisheng asked: "What about Datou and Zhou Buyan?" "I left the island this morning." Zhou Buwen told me in a WeChat message without even making a phone call. Jiang Yisheng was silent for a moment, and began to eat without saying a word.Jiang Yisheng has the highest IQ among the three of us. He can naturally think of anything I can think of. He is afraid that his father was injured. He also has doubts.It's just that, before there is conclusive evidence, both of us have a bit of an ostrich mentality, and we don't want to talk about it, and we don't want to face it.

After the meal, the four sat around the table, Wu Jingjing said: "I have contacted the auction house I know, they will help us hold a small auction, and transfer these two items to people who like them at a fair price The auction will be held in New York, Xiao Luo, you need to go to New York." "Ah? Is it necessary? I don't need all the auction items to appear when I watch the auction on TV!" Wu Jingjing said: "You don't need to stand there to sell your products, but there are many documents that must be signed by you yourself. New York is a very worthwhile place to visit, you have the right to travel! I grew up in New York , I know the place very well, and I will always be with you, or let Jiang Yisheng go with me."

I looked at Wu Julan hesitantly, not because I was afraid of traveling far away, but because Wu Julan was a "black householder" and couldn't do international travel at all, so I didn't want to be separated from him. Wu Julan said: "Don't worry, we will meet again soon." I thought about it, it's okay!Go one day, go back one day, spend another day or two doing business, and you should be able to go home in four or five days, and indeed we will meet again soon. Seeing that I have no problem, Wu Jingjing asked Jiang Yisheng with a smile, "Do you want to accompany us to New York?"

Jiang Yisheng said indifferently: "Okay! At least I can help you with your luggage." Wu Jingjing said: "You two give me your documents, and I will arrange everything properly. Don't worry, you will have a wonderful journey!" I always feel that the witch queen's smile seems to have successfully seduced Little Red Riding Hood's wolf grandmother's smile, which makes people feel a little shivering, but we are just going to sell things, so there should be no problem, right?If the Witch Queen wants to rob money, there is no need for us to go to New York; if she wants to rob sex, the unlucky one is Jiang Yisheng anyway!

Under Wu Jingjing's intensive arrangement, Jiang Yisheng and I successfully obtained the visa and other relevant documents after more than two weeks. Wu Jingjing asked me when I was going to leave, and I said the sooner the better, there was a week before the full moon, and I had to come back before then. Jiang Yisheng and Wu Jingjing and I left the island by boat, and Wu Julan went to see us off at the pier. I was full of worries and worries, and I called Wu Julan over and over again. I wrote a long list of phone numbers, all of which were the iron relations between me and Jiang Yisheng: doctors, policemen, supermarket owners, clothing store owners... covering all aspects of life, no matter what. If you encounter any problems, you can find a friend to help you with just one phone call.

In view of the fact that both of our mobile phones broke as soon as they fell into the sea last time, I specially ordered two waterproof mobile phone bags from Taobao, one for Wu Julan and one for each of us.Ask Wu Julan to bring his mobile phone with him at all times, and call me whenever he has something to do, regardless of the jet lag. I stood in front of Wu Julan, babbling on and on, eating, dressing, the safety of the island, typhoon season, bank cards, the cash I should bring... I usually don’t think there are so many things to pay attention to, but When I left, I found all kinds of worries.

The departure whistle sounded, urging the guests who hadn't boarded the ship to hurry up and get on the ship.Reluctantly, I stepped back and got on the boat. After the boat sailed, I stood on the deck until I could no longer see Wu Julan's figure, then I looked away.My mood was a bit dull, not only because of the sorrow of parting, but also because I felt that I was very reluctant to part with Wu Julan, but Wu Julan didn't seem to care so much about my leaving. Wu Jingjing probably saw my unhappiness, and said to Jiang Yisheng in a very exaggerated tone: "Just now, I saw the funniest joke in my life."

Jiang Yisheng asked cooperatively: "What joke?" Wu Jingjing said: "A goldfish living in a fish tank greets a shark living in the ocean, worrying that he will be in danger in the fish tank. Do you think it's funny? I'm getting goosebumps!" I was startled, stared at Wu Jingjing and asked, "Why do you say Wu Julan is a shark living in the ocean?" Wu Jingjing smiled and said, "It's just a feeling. Brother Ang looks like a very powerful person. He should have experienced many storms. You, at first glance, look like a little goldfish living in a fish tank." I breathed a sigh of relief and told myself it was just a metaphor, don't be too nervous and make random associations. After disembarking, we drove to the airport. After boarding the plane, Jiang Yisheng and I discovered that it was first class. so extravagant?Both Jiang Yisheng and I looked at Wu Jingjing. Wu Jingjing said: "Don't worry, the boss paid the money, and he asked to make the two guests who are away from afar comfortable and happy." "boss?" "It's the owner of the company that sells things for Xiao Luo. He is also very interested in the two items and should bid for them." Jiang Yisheng asked: "Why do you call him the boss?" Wu Jingjing shrugged and said, "Our family has been working for their family, and I will continue to work for him. What should I call my boss?" I asked in surprise, "Aren't you a doctor?" Wu Jingjing said indifferently, "That's a part-time job!" Jiang Yisheng and I looked at each other, and Wu Jingjing smiled and said, "When we get to New York, you will understand." Jiang Yisheng and I looked at each other and didn't ask any more questions. During the ten-hour journey, Jiang Yisheng had a beautiful woman by his side, talking and laughing all the way, which was very pleasant.However, I have been depressed because of Wu Julan's "light parting". The plane landed at JFK Airport in New York, and I didn't feel the slightest excitement when I saw the exotic scenery. The driver who came to pick us up at the airport wore a neat black uniform and drove a stretched Bentley. When Jiang Yisheng saw it, he couldn't help but whistled. I asked, "Who pays?" Wu Jingjing said: "It's the same as our first-class air ticket, the boss pays." I muttered: "The wool comes from sheep, and the money he spends must be earned back from me, but I don't want to pay for it myself, so I always feel more comfortable." Wu Jingjing poured a glass of champagne for each of us, "Congratulations on our safe arrival in New York." I took a sip of champagne, looked out the window at the neon lights, the traffic, and suddenly it started to feel real, I was in New York!The place where Wu Julan once lived! It's obviously a completely unfamiliar city, but because I fell in love with someone, even the feeling of a city has completely changed. It's a pity that modern society is not like a hundred years ago, when you can travel from one continent to another by buying a boat ticket, otherwise I really want to visit this city with Wu Julan. I suddenly asked: "New York in 1880s should be very different from what it is now, right?" Wu Jingjing said: "It's very different. However, this is a country with almost no history, so it pays special attention to preserving history. Many buildings from that era have survived to this day. If you are interested, I can show you there." Jiang Yisheng asked strangely: "Little Luo, why are you interested in New York at that time?" I took a sip of champagne in a concealed manner, "Ask casually." The driver drove past a place with dense shade and lush grass. Many trees should be hundreds of years old, with thick trunks and gorgeous crowns.In a city full of high-rise buildings, such a place full of birdsong and flowers suddenly appeared, and Jiang Yisheng and I couldn't help looking at it curiously. Wu Jingjing introduced: "The famous Central Park. It was established in 1857. It was the first landscape park in the United States. The land around here was not worth much at that time. Now..." Wu Jingjing frowned, exhaled from her nose, "Except for government and institutional buildings, only the world's richest people can own an apartment overlooking Central Park." The driver parked the car in front of an apartment building, and Wu Jingjing said, "We're here." I looked at Central Park, which was just across the street, and exchanged glances with Jiang Yisheng. As soon as we got out of the car, someone came to help us with our luggage.The doorman in the red uniform should know Wu Jingjing, greeted her politely, and opened the door. Wu Jingjing led us into the elevator. The person who drove the elevator was a gray-haired, hale and hearty black old man. When he saw Wu Jingjing, he greeted Wu Jingjing warmly and pressed the elevator button of "Penthouse" representing the top floor. One of only two buttons in the elevator, the other being "Lobby" for the lobby. Wu Jingjing said: "This apartment building is the property of the boss, and my grandmother has been taking care of it. The other floors are rented out, and the top floor is reserved for the boss to live in occasionally." Jiang Yisheng sighed and said: "Your boss is really good at making money!" Wu Jingjing couldn't help but sneered, "There is a way to make money? He doesn't worry about it! The boss just bought it early in a daze. Central Park was built in 1857, and the boss...'s family bought this place in 1852." At that time, this area was just a piece of wasteland." She frowned, and said bitterly: "When you go to Europe in the future, look at the boss in Paris, London, Copenhagen, Rome, Vatican... He bought some Where could it be more shocking! When I told people to buy junk that no one wanted, no one believed it!" When the elevator arrived, Wu Jingjing stepped out of the elevator and stood in a luxuriously furnished corridor, with wool carpets on the floor, oil paintings on the walls, and crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling.She walked to the gate, entered a string of codes on the electronic lock, and the door opened. Wu Jingjing walked in and said, "In order to facilitate your access, I have asked someone to set the password to Xiaoluo's birthday, which is the birthday of the lunar calendar." I hurriedly said: "Don't bother, we just stay for two days and leave soon." Wu Jingjing said: "It's all been changed, should I change it back?" All I can say is, "Thank you and your boss." Wu Jingjing said indifferently, "Let's go, I'll show you around the house." We walked along the porch and walked into the living room, and at a glance we saw the large floor-to-ceiling windows that almost occupied an entire wall.Outside the window is the blue sky, white clouds, lush forests, clear and beautiful lakes, and there are even several black eagles circling in the sky. I was amazed that I could see a wild forest-like scenery in a reinforced concrete city. No wonder the houses around Central Park are expensive. Wu Jingjing said, "Jiang Yisheng and I live in the guest room downstairs, and Xiao Luo lives in the master room upstairs." The house is so tall that it could be made into upper and lower floors, but the owner didn’t cherish the land at all. The upper floor was only half built, and the rest of the place was left blank, so that the ceiling of the living room and dining room was five or six meters high. , it seems that the house is big and deep, just like a small castle. With a curiosity about the life of the rich, I first visited the first floor with Jiang Yisheng, and then went to the second floor.We found that this house looks like a "castle", and there are very few houses that can actually live in it.In addition to the living room, dining room and kitchen on the first floor, there are only two bedrooms, and there is only one large bedroom on the second floor. The other areas are: a reading area like a small library, an activity area with chairs and astronomical telescopes, sofas and Coffee table in the reception area.These areas have no real walls or doors, but are spaced apart by some clever placement, overlooking the downstairs living and dining room.The sofa in the reception area faces the huge floor-to-ceiling windows across the sky above the living room. You can enjoy the scenery outside while chatting. I said to Wu Jingjing: "Your boss obviously regards this house as his own private territory. Except for the bedroom, there are no doors or walls in other places. It is obvious that he does not intend to invite strangers to live in. How could he give the house to you?" where do we live?" Wu Jingjing smiled and said, "Empty is also empty, let us live here, and you can save the hotel fee." I said: "Although my two items are worth a little money, they are definitely not rare. They can be sold for several million yuan at most. I always feel that the standard of reception is too high!" Wu Jingjing patted my shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, you will understand soon." I can only settle down and wait for the development of things.I said, "Do whatever else you want! But I will stay for two days at most, which means I must return to China the day after tomorrow. Wu Julan is still waiting for me at home!" Wu Jingjing said: "The boss wants to treat you to dinner tonight, you can tell the boss directly." I yawned and said, "I'm so sleepy, I don't want to eat, I just want to sleep." Calculating the time, this time is four or five in the morning in China, when the dream is in full swing. Wu Jingjing said: "Take a bath, don't sleep, and stick to it until night, otherwise the jet lag will not be over." I went into the bathroom, ready to take a shower, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the shampoo and body wash were from my usual brand.It's just a small detail, but it makes me feel very considerate and thoughtful, and I feel a little better. After taking a hot bath, my drowsiness and exhaustion were washed away. I sat on the edge of the bed, drying my hair, and casually looking at the layout of the bedroom. A few beautifully colored conch shells were placed on the head of the bed and on the shelf for decoration, which gave me a sense of intimacy for no reason.I thought to myself, this rich man should like the sea very much, no wonder he would want to buy my two stones. After blowing my hair, I stood in front of the French window of the master bedroom, overlooking the Central Park, and sent a WeChat message to Wu Julan: "I have arrived in New York safely. If you have something to miss, I can go, and I took a picture for you to see." .” There was no reply on WeChat, probably because I haven't woken up yet, so I put my phone away. Wu Jingjing knocked on the door and said, "We're going out for dinner." "It will be fine soon." Anyway, what the other party valued was my things, not my image. I was dressed very casually, with smoke gray small-cut jeans on the lower body, a straight-leg long-sleeved floral shirt on the upper body, and a camel knitting sweater cardigan jacket in my hand. I went outside can be put on when. Wu Jingjing and Jiang Yisheng obviously had carefully selected their clothes, one was wearing a small violet dress and a cashmere coat; the other was wearing a long-sleeved shirt and crisp trousers.When I went down, they were standing together, whispering, very eye-catching. I said, "I feel like I'm your light bulb." Wu Jingjing just smiled, Jiang Yisheng ignored my joke, picked up the trench coat and said, "Let's go!" Wu Jingjing said that the place to eat was not far away, it was nearby, and the three of them walked there. I deliberately walked behind, letting Jiang Yisheng and Wu Jingjing walk in front. The streets of foreign countries, the endless stream of pedestrians, English with various accents, and a pair of "lovers" who are developing like a golden boy and a jade girl, I became very missing someone, and couldn't help but took out my phone again. Just at a red light, Wu Jingjing and Jiang Yisheng crossed the street and continued walking, but I was left on the side of the street.I didn't care too much, while looking at the photos on my phone and waiting for the red light, I thought about sneaking out at dinner later and calling Wu Julan. When the red light turned green and I looked up, I found that Wu Jingjing and Jiang Yisheng were no longer in sight.I didn't dare to play with my phone anymore, so I put it back on and hurried forward, walking three intersections, but I didn't see them.I walked back and searched the neighborhood several times, but I still couldn't find Jiang Yisheng and Wu Jingjing. Fortunately, it was still early, and there was a constant flow of people on the street, which made me not so nervous, but this is a foreign country after all, and my English is very average, so I still feel flustered.I took out my mobile phone and called Jiang Yisheng and Wu Jingjing.Neither of them could get through on their mobile phones. I don't know if it was a signal problem or my international roaming was not activated at all. I thought about it and decided to go back the same way. As long as I find an apartment to live in, I won't lose myself. It's just that she was thinking about it just now, and followed Wu Jingjing in a daze, without remembering the way at all.I can only try to remember while trying to walk, the apartment building is not far away, if I go around a few times, I can always find it! But I searched and searched, and the more I searched, the more flustered I became. According to the distance, I should have arrived near the apartment building early, but I didn't see the apartment building at all.I tried to ask for directions in English, but I couldn't tell which street the apartment building was on or what the house number was. The pedestrian who was asked shook his head impatiently, said "Sorry", and left in a hurry. The night was getting darker and darker. I stood on the unfamiliar street and looked at the strange crowd, feeling very anxious and helpless. Suddenly, I heard someone call: "Little Luo!" The familiar Chinese made me feel like hearing the sounds of nature, and I immediately turned my head to look across the busy street, Wu Julan was standing under the dim lights and waving at me. I felt that I must be too anxious and had hallucinations. I couldn't help but close my eyes, and then opened them again. Wu Julan had already crossed the road quickly and came in front of me. "Little Luo!" Wu Julan looked at me, revealing the joy of relief. I touched his hand and felt that his body temperature was lower than that of ordinary people, so I was sure everything was true. I was surprised and confused and asked, "Why are you here?" "Wu Jingjing said that she lost you, so I came to look for you." "It's not this, I mean, why are you in New York? How did you come here? You don't even have a document, how did you pass the customs?" Wu Julan leaned over and whispered in my ear, "I'm a fish. When did you see fish migrating and you still need to bring your ID?" Feeling his breath, I blushed, "You planned it long ago?" "Ok." No wonder he didn't feel any sadness when we said goodbye; no wonder he always said that we would see each other soon whenever I expressed the idea that I didn't want to go to New York.He did not leave lightly, but came to New York to accompany me. The awkwardness that had been entangled in my heart disappeared in an instant, and my heart was filled with joy. I asked, "How did you find Liangliang and Jiang Yisheng?" Wu Julan took out his mobile phone and shook it. It was covered with a waterproof plastic bag bought from Taobao, "Your call is not available." "I couldn't make a call just now, maybe there is a problem with international roaming!" Wu Julan asked: "Are you hungry? Let's go eat." I took Wu Julan's hand and walked bouncingly, "I made an appointment to have dinner with Liangliang's boss, but I have been late for so long, and I don't want to go now. You call Liangliang and tell I'm not going with her." Wu Julan called Wu Jingjing and told her in fluent English that he found me and we wanted to have dinner together and let her boss take care of herself. After he hung up the phone, I asked with a smile, "Do you speak the language of that country whenever you have lived in it?" Wu Julan did not deny it, but said lightly: "Although it is difficult to understand their hearts through human language, it is even more terrifying not to understand their language, just like a blind man walking on the highway." There is a hint of murderous intent in his words. Of course I understand that his past life was not just reciting poems and playing the piano, drinking and dancing swords, but hearing it with my own ears is still a bit uncomfortable. Wu Julan rubbed my head, as if to reassure me not to think about it, he smiled and asked, "Did you have a good trip?" I immediately regained my energy and chattered from the plane to the apartment where we lived, expressing various incomprehensions about the generosity of the boss, "...maybe I have shallow eyesight and have never seen the world, I'm a little flattered, always worried that the boss is a weasel wishing the chicken a new year, and has other plans..." A police car stopped on the side of the road, and two policemen got out of the car. I made a sharp turn, and dragged Wu Julan into the alley next to me.When the two policemen passed by, they glanced at us, my heart was beating wildly, I hurriedly put my arms around Wu Julan's neck, pressed my lips to his cheek, and made a gesture of affection. When the police left, I breathed a sigh of relief and let Wu Julan go. Seeing him staring at me blankly, I suddenly realized that I couldn't help scolding myself: "I'm so stupid! I'm so stupid!" I always thought that Wu Julan had no identity and entered the country illegally. Guilty, but don't want to think about it, you are walking on the street in good condition, which policeman will stop you to check your passport when you are free?On the contrary, it was my sneaky appearance just now that attracted attention easily. I really want to cry because of my own IQ!I looked at Wu Julan pitifully, "I'm sorry! I almost caused a disaster, if you want to scold me..." Suddenly, Wu Julan leaned over and kissed my lips lightly, my chattering stopped abruptly. His kiss was like the first snowflake in early winter, cold and soft, it disappeared without a trace as soon as it touched it, leaving only a little wetness, which proved that it existed. I held my breath and stared blankly at Wu Julan. Wu Julan stared at me for a moment, then suddenly smiled.I'm used to his stern eyebrows and indifferent expression. It was the first time I saw him so gentle and willful. I just felt that his face was so charming at this moment, which made my heart beat like a deer, and my face turned red instantly. Wu Julan's smile deepened, and she stretched out her hand to flick my cheek. While smiling, she took my hand and continued walking. I became completely dumb and didn't say a word all the way. Wu Julan led me into a western restaurant, and after I sat down in a daze, I realized that both Wu Jingjing and Jiang Yisheng were there. Wu Jingjing lowered her head, with a look of "I did something wrong, I'm very disturbed", Jiang Yisheng looked at Wu Julan displeased. I said, "You guys are here too? Liangliang, is it okay to release your boss' pigeons?" Jiang Yisheng looked at me like a monster, and said contemptuously, "Your IQ is really...unlimited!" Wu Jingjing hurriedly said, "No problem! The boss won't mind, why did you get lost?" "I looked at my phone, but I couldn't find you. I was too inattentive when I was walking." I was very polite to Wu Jingjing, but turned to Jiang Yisheng with another face, "Your IQ has an upper limit. The living man is right behind you, what are you thinking in your heart, you have never noticed that I am gone? See sex and forget friends!" Wu Jingjing just recovered a little bit, and then began to bow her head and plead guilty again.Jiang Yisheng grabbed Wu Jingjing and said to Wu Julan, "I don't like western food, I want to eat Chinese food!" Wu Julan said, "Okay." Jiang Yisheng left with Wu Jingjing, I asked in puzzlement, "Why does Jiang Yisheng seem to be a little angry with you?" "Wu Jingjing said you lost it. I was in a hurry, so I reprimanded Wu Jingjing." I'm not a child, so if I lose it, someone else will be responsible?It seems a little too much... I tentatively asked: "Why don't you go back and apologize to Liangliang?" Wu Julan glanced at me, picked up the menu and looked at it. From the first day I met him, he never wronged his temper, and I didn't want to wrong him, so I decided to say a few nice words to Wu Jingjing to make amends! I checked the menu and found it was French.It's not that I don't like French food, foie gras snails, caviar steak, etc., I also like to eat a few meals occasionally.But tonight, having just been on a long flight, jet-lagged, and not feeling well, I don't feel like eating any of these things. Wu Julan asked: "What do you want to eat?" I said apologetically, "I just finished a long-distance flight. In fact, I want to eat a bowl of sour noodle soup the most." "It's because I didn't think carefully." Wu Julan put down the menu and led me out of the restaurant. I don't know where there is a Chinese restaurant, and Wu Julan is definitely not familiar with New York, so I propose to go back to the apartment and make it myself! When I visited the kitchen in the afternoon, I found that the boss or his subordinates were very thoughtful and meticulous. They not only put the food that Chinese people often eat in the refrigerator, but also put various Chinese seasonings on the table, including soy sauce and vinegar. All ready. I vaguely described the location of the apartment to Wu Julan. I didn't expect him to find the right way, but I didn't expect to get back to the apartment smoothly all the way. I used my birthday to open the door of the apartment, smiled and said to Wu Julan: "Let's experience the luxurious life of the rich!" However, Wu Julan was not at all interested in the luxurious decoration and beautiful scenery of the apartment, so he glanced at it lightly and then looked at the kitchen. I asked eagerly, "Is it good? Soy sauce, vinegar, all kinds of condiments, even fermented bean curd and bean paste." Wu Julan said, "It's just enough." I said: "This is the United States, or a foreigner's house, don't be so picky!" Wu Julan took off her coat, rolled up her shirt sleeves, and walked into the kitchen. After a while, he made me a bowl of sour noodle soup with mixed vegetables and fried a piece of steak for himself. We sat at the bar and ate one Chinese and one Western. Under the bright light, Wu Julan was wearing a simple white shirt and black trousers, but her every move revealed a natural elegance.I sneaked glances and glances, and belatedly realized that the shirt he was wearing had never been seen before, and it looked very good. I was afraid of embarrassing him, so I didn't ask whether the suit was stolen or bought.After dinner, I jumped off the high chair, ran to the sofa to get my wallet, and handed a card to Wu Julan, "If you want to buy things these days, use this card, and..." I Take out all the US dollar cash in the wallet and start counting the money, "Liang Liang said that there are not many opportunities to use cash in the United States, but sometimes cash is needed when tipping. I only exchanged 600 US dollars, and we are half of each other. Help me save, if I don’t have enough, I’ll exchange it again. It’s rare for us to come out once, and the most important thing is to have fun..." I was nagging Wu Julan that Jiang Yisheng and Wu Jingjing were back.Both of them knew the financial situation of Wu Julan and me. I took a look at them, didn't care, and handed Wu Julan the 300 yuan I counted. Wu Julan took the cash and card without saying a word, and put them away carefully. Both Jiang Yisheng and Wu Jingjing stared at me and Wu Julan strangely. "Wu Julan, you actually spent Shen Luo's money?" Jiang Yisheng's voice was weirder than his gaze. I was upset and regretted that I didn't avoid them just now. Just as I was about to explain, Wu Julan looked at Jiang Yisheng with a smile and said, "It's easy for a man to spend money for a woman, but it takes a certain amount of charm for a man to spend a woman's money! Jiang Doctor, are you envious, jealous, inferior or depressed?" I am very happy that Wu Julan did not worry about the man's face and self-esteem, but he still explained: "Wu Julan has just arrived in the United States and has no time to exchange money. What's more, why does he take my money? It's not like you don't know, all my money He earned it for me, mine is his, and what he takes is his own money!" Jiang Yisheng sneered: "I also help our hospital make money! I haven't seen the director say that his money is my money!" Wu Jingjing tugged at Jiang Yisheng and changed the subject, "Why didn't you eat at the restaurant? Don't you like the restaurant I chose?" I said, "No, I have no appetite, I just want to eat a bowl of hot noodle soup." Wu Jingjing said apologetically, "I was too careless. I didn't consider that you guys just got off the long-distance flight and you must only want to eat Chinese food." "It's okay, you have taken good care of me. Liangliang, there is something I want to discuss with you." "What's up?" I said embarrassedly: "I want Wu Julan to live here, is that okay?" Wu Jingjing took a quick look at Wu Julan, "As long as Brother Ang is willing, I have absolutely no objection. However, Brother Ang can only live on the second floor, and the first floor is my and Jiang Yisheng's territory." "No problem! Thank you!" I said happily. Wu Jingjing smiled meaningfully and said to us: "I'm going back to the house to take a shower and rest, good night everyone!" After she finished speaking, she turned and left. Jiang Yisheng said "good night" and went back to his room. I packed up the dishes and took Wu Julan to visit the second floor. Wu Julan glanced at the other places, showing no interest, and only stayed in the reading area for a while. He was silent and looked at the books on the bookshelf with long eyes. I couldn't help asking: "What are you thinking?" He reached out and took a book from the shelf, "Books I've read before." I leaned over to look at it, and it looked very old. It was not English, nor Japanese, nor Korean. To me, it was completely bible. "What book? What language is this?" "Egnet and the Mermaid by Hans Andersen. Danish." Andersen?Denmark?Mermaid?Isn't it the famous Andersen!I said: "The Chinese translation should be "The Mermaid" or "." "You're talking about 'The little mermaid', which is a story about a mermaid, and this is 'Agnete and the merman', which is a story about a mermaid." Andersen actually wrote a story about a merman?I asked curiously, "What is the story about?" Wu Julan put the book back on the shelf, and said lightly: "This story is a poetic drama written by Andersen based on European folklore. He regards it as one of his best works. There are many versions of the story, but the general plot is the same. Tells about a merman with pure golden hair and delightful eyes. One day he met a human girl named Agnete, they fell in love with each other and decided to live together. Agnete and the blonde merman lived Eight years later, she gave birth to a child for him, but in the end, Agnete still couldn't give up human life, and chose to leave the merman forever." I regretted asking about this story out of curiosity, and looked at Wu Julan in embarrassment, not knowing what to say. Wu Julan smiled and shook her head, held my hand with one hand, and flicked my forehead with the other, "I'm not that sensitive, don't think about it!" I was relieved immediately, and I squeezed his hand tightly with a smile. He is not the blond mermaid, and I am not Agnete. We will never let go of each other's hands. I pulled him out of the reading area and said with a smile: "There is only one bedroom. I sleep in the bedroom, and you sleep on the sofa in the reception area?" "it is good." After Wu Julan settled down, I fell on the bed and immediately fell into a sound sleep. However, in the middle of the night, he suddenly woke up.After going to the bathroom, I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep again.I checked my phone, and it was only 3:40 in the morning, which should be the legendary time difference. I opened the circle of friends on WeChat, and after swiping through the circle of friends, I sent a message myself: "I can't sleep at night, I still have important things to deal with tomorrow, I hope I won't be dizzy, and I don't know if I sold myself." In addition to a few guys who liked it, there was actually a reply from Jiang Yisheng: "Don't worry, because...you have lost your brain." I'm mentally balanced, and it looks like I'm not alone in jet lag. I hesitated for a while, and sent a WeChat message to Wu Julan: "Are you still sleeping?" After waiting for a while, Wu Julan replied: "You can't sleep?" I was suddenly excited, "Well, what about you?" Wu Julan: "I can't sleep either." "Talk for a while?" Wu Julan: "Don't get up, even if you can't sleep, lie down well, otherwise you will have insomnia tomorrow." I obediently lay in bed and sent a WeChat message: "When the two stones are sold, I will be considered a little financially free. You don't have to help me make money. Is there anything you want to do most? I can accompany you Let's do it together." I have long discovered that Wu Julan is a person who has no sense of material things.Because of the different life forms, for him, everything in the world is something outside of him.In terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, he doesn't care about anything except food, and his food requirements cannot be met by human money. Everything he needs is in the ocean.However, because I still need material things, everything he does on the island, whether fishing or cooking, is to help me.This is why I decided to sell two stones, I don't want him to be fettered by money because of me. Wu Julan: "What do you most want to do?" "I'm asking you." I refused to answer. I'm afraid that as soon as I answer, he will give priority to me.Probably because Wu Julan's life is too long, for him, everything is a passer-by, not only he is indifferent to things not related to himself, but he doesn't care too much about things related to himself, anyway, he has plenty of time, if he doesn't do it now, he will It's too late to do it again.但是，我的时间很有限。在他漫长的生命里，我的几十年短暂到几乎不值一提。可是，我希望将来，他想起我和他在一起的时光时，是精彩有趣、开心愉悦的，而不是枯燥无聊、干巴乏味的，最终连回忆的价值都没有，被淹没在他漫长的生命中。 吴居蓝说：“我说一件，你说一件。” 我想了想，妥协了，“好。” “我想你陪我去海上。” 他的意思肯定不是乘船出海去钓鱼看日落什么的，我把他的话反复读了三遍后，回复：“我和你一起去。” "It's your turn." "I have already said." "?" “我想和你一起去海上。不是骗你，我现在最想做的事情就是和你一起做各种各样的事，不管是一起爬山，还是一起下海，对我而言做什么不重要，重要的是我们在一起。” 吴居蓝一直没有回复，我问：“是太感动了，还是睡着了？建议选择第一个答案，否则不利于生命安全。” 吴居蓝哪个都没选，“天快亮了，再休息一会儿。” “最后一个问题，你对纽约印象最深刻的地方是哪里？” “剧院。” 我默默思索了一会儿，把手机放回床头柜，闭上了眼睛。
