Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Buying a Car

After He Ru returned to his residence, he took a shower and poured a glass of red wine. She drank a glass of wine every day before going to bed.One is because it helps to fall asleep, and the other is because wine is good for catalyzing blood vessels and relieving heart pressure.She has premature beats, was nervous when she was studying in the Northeast, and often woke up from nightmares at night, covered in cold sweat.After arriving in LA, her personal doctor suggested that she try drinking a small amount of wine.After she tried it for a period of time, her nervousness during sleep was relieved a lot.

She once jokingly told her colleagues that California's climate is suitable for growing grapes, so of course it's time for her to do as the Romans do. She casually watched the talk show in front of the TV, drank wine, and couldn't help but think of Wu Xiaotian. I wonder if he has adapted to life here these days?She wanted to call him several times to ask him, but what else could the two of them talk about?Their relationship was long over.Even if Wu Xiaotian really gave up his career in China for her this time, it is difficult for her to accept his feelings. Eight years can turn a loving couple into a pair of enemies, not to mention they haven't stayed together for eight years!Maybe Wu Xiaotian came to the United States for other reasons, so it has nothing to do with her.Seeing Wu Xiaotian's eagerness to restore the old relationship with her that day, she felt amused.

Emotionally she is in no hurry.In the United States, thirty-year-old women are in demand!Thirty for a woman means "thirty percent": maturity, achievement, and formation.And these are things that a twenty-year-old woman can't imagine. Just thinking about it, the phone rang suddenly.She thought, who will call at this time?Could it be Wu Xiaotian?She stared at the phone without moving. After the ringing stopped, she suddenly heard a message from Liu Dongqi: "Miss He, this is Liu Dongqi. Did you enjoy your dinner tonight? I wonder if you are free tomorrow morning? I want you to take me to see the car. I had an appointment A colleague of mine just called me and said that he has something important to do tomorrow and cannot accompany me. I want to drive the new car back tomorrow and go to the insurance company for insurance in the afternoon. Please call me back when you come back. Excuse me gone."

He Ru sleeps until twelve o'clock every weekend morning, what she covets is the peace and quiet of hiding in bed.She thought, is it necessary to give up this warmth for a new friend?But if you want to refuse, there should always be a good reason. However, if Liu Dongqi used this as an excuse to develop a deeper relationship with her, what would she do?She really doesn't want to have deep contact with men.Only by maintaining a close relationship with men can there be a sense of mystery.Although love is touching, it may be a virus between men and women. In the end, He Ru called Liu Dongqi back and asked him to wait for her downstairs in his residence tomorrow morning.She said: "Mr. Liu, I hope I can take care of everything about your car tomorrow!"

The next day, He Ru came to Liu Dongqi's apartment as promised.Liu Dongqi was already waiting.He Ru followed his car first, and went to the car rental company to return the car he rented.When going to the parking lot, how to ask him if he still wants to buy a "Nissan"?Liu Dongqi said that this time he wanted to buy an American car, which was suitable for a big man like him. He Ru smiled and said, "Aren't you nostalgic for old times?" Liu Dongqi smiled and said, "That's two different things. It's like when your wife passes away, you don't necessarily need to find a woman of the same type."

He Ru was shocked when he heard this!It seems that Liu Dongqi is more complicated than she imagined. After all, Liu Dongqi is a lawyer. He fell in love with a JAGUAR, and he got the car in less than half an hour with the Dealer.Then he and He Ru drove to the insurance company in tandem. He Ru didn't want to go with Liu Dongqi because he already had a car.But Liu Dongqi still wants to invite her to go with him, because he is not yet familiar with the insurance market here.His previous insurance company will expire in half a month, and he doesn't want to take out insurance with the old company anymore.

The insurance company I went to was a business agent of a large American company, but all the staff were Chinese. The two found a young female agent, who was not bad, with round eyes, slightly pouty lips and nose, and dyed brown hair.As soon as she opened her mouth, He Ru knew she was from Taiwan.The woman worked slowly, and fiddled with the computer for a long time before she retrieved Liu Dongqi's previous driving information. He Ru has been looking at his watch.It wasn't until one o'clock in the afternoon, when the company was about to leave work, that the woman registered Liu Dongqi.Before leaving, Liu Dongqi casually took a business card of the female agent and looked at it. The woman's name was Judy Chen.

Liu Dongqi wanted to invite He Ru to dinner, He Ru said with a smile: "What I need now is not a pair of chopsticks, but a bed." Liu Dongqi looked a little astonished.He Ru suddenly realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, and blushed and said, "Don't think badly. Maybe this is the last time we meet!" Liu Dongqi laughed: "I don't think so." How to say: "Are you so confident?" Liu Dongqi laughed and said, "Yes, because I am a lawyer! Don't forget to call me when you need help." The place where Wu Xiaotian lives is not too far away from his postdoctoral C major, but it takes at least 40 minutes for him to take the bus to the laboratory every day.So before long, he wanted to buy a used car.

He wants to move his residence to the apartment complex of University C, where the living conditions are slightly better, but he needs to wait in line for a while to rent a house independently.So for the time being, he can only share the house with others and pay half of the rent.In this way, he can save 300 yuan a month compared with renting the current house. He found a family on the Internet and made a phone call.The other party was a couple, and there was a little girl over three years old.Wu Xiaotian made a final decision with them. His belongings were not much, just a bed and a few big boxes.On weekends, he asked Tony, a young Jew in his laboratory, to drive a pick-up truck and move the family there in half a day.

In the evening, he called He Ru, and when He Ru went out, he left a message for her with a new phone number.He said to He Ru: "I have already written a check and sent you back the rent you paid earlier." Sharing a house with others, the biggest inconvenience is cooking and using the living room and bathroom.Fortunately, the apartment he lives in has two bathrooms, which saves some trouble. But cooking is the thing that bothers him the most.The couple surnamed Cheng who live together are both Technicians from the University of C, from Sichuan. When cooking, the spicy energy is out of the picture, which made him runny nose and tears.He is from Zhejiang, and he can't eat spicy food, so when it's time for them to cook, he quickly closes the door and hides in the room.By the time he was cooking, the couple had already had a good meal and were leisurely watching TV.

Mr. Cheng seemed to have a lot of research on cooking, so he came over from time to time to give him advice, and enthusiastically brought out his Sichuan-style spicy sauce to share with him.It made Wu Xiaotian eat it, and not eat it. After a few days, Wu Xiaotian decided not to cook Chinese food anymore.In the evening, he came back after eating simple Western or Chinese fast food outside, and then he went straight into his room. Wu Xiaotian thought to himself, if he hadn't been forced into a corner in China, why would he come to the United States to suffer this foreign crime? ! Eight years ago, after graduating from university, he joined a foreign-funded pharmaceutical company in Shanghai, while He Ru applied for a student visa to the United States.He seemed to be born with the shrewdness in business and the intelligence in learning of people from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, so his performance quickly attracted the attention of the company's executives.While working in a pharmaceutical company, he took a part-time master's degree at his alma mater, and later studied for a part-time doctorate in a famous research institute in Shanghai. Because of his work, he also met many people, which inevitably attracted the attention of some women.But he has a high vision and has always wanted to make a difference in his career. Besides, in the first three years after graduation, he was still waiting for He Ru to come back, so he didn't care much about personal matters.Most of the time when he comes into contact with women, he is acting on the spot.He came from a small town in southern Zhejiang. Between love and his desired career, he felt the latter was more important. But by chance, a girl broke into his life, and his future began to change.
