Chapter 494: Keep an appointment!

Chapter 494: Keep an appointment!

On the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, after Jia Dongming finished his breakfast at home, he said hello to Lin Qiuyue and pushed his bicycle towards the gate of the courtyard.

Because it was Chinese New Year, the courtyard became unusually lively. When the residents saw Jia Dongming pushing his bicycle out, they all greeted him enthusiastically.

Faced with the enthusiasm of his neighbors, Jia Dongming also responded very enthusiastically. It took him five or six minutes to push his bicycle out of the courtyard.

After walking out of the courtyard, Jia Dongming hurriedly got on his bicycle and rode towards the steel rolling mill.

Ten minutes later, Jia Dongming arrived at the steel rolling mill. He made a routine inspection of several duty posts in the factory and handed a cigarette to his subordinates on duty. Then he returned to his office and bought some gifts for Chen Xueru from the system supermarket. Then he rode his bicycle to the courtyard where Chen Xueru lived.

More than half an hour later, Jia Dongming arrived at the gate of the courtyard where Chen Xueru lived. He looked at the gate in front of him with a hesitant expression on his face.

Jia Dongming had not been in contact with Chen Xueru for a long time, but he could feel Chen Xueru's admiration for him, so he knew very well that once he knocked on the door today, something would definitely happen between him and Chen Xueru. Considering Chen Xueru's strong personality, Jia Dongming became a little hesitant for a moment.

As for Chen Xueru, because Jia Dongming was coming over today, Chen Xueru sent her son Hou Kui to her mother's place last night. She got up early this morning to wash and put on makeup, and then waited for Jia Dongming's arrival at home.

The waiting time was undoubtedly long. Time passed by minute by minute. When it was past nine o'clock in the morning, Chen Xueru began to lose her patience. She murmured to herself in annoyance, "Brother Dongming! Are you going to stand me up again?"

This thought made Chen Xueru feel more and more irritated. She thought about going to the entrance of the alley to take a look. As a result, the moment she walked to the gate of the yard and opened the door, she saw Jia Dongming standing outside the gate.

When Chen Xueru saw Jia Dongming standing outside the courtyard gate, her annoyance was swept away at that moment, and she was replaced by great excitement. She hurriedly asked Jia Dongming: "Brother Dongming! When did you come here? Why didn't you knock on the door? Please come in."

Jia Dongming stood at the gate of the courtyard for five or six minutes. Just when he made the decision and was about to leave, the gate suddenly opened and he saw Chen Xueru walking out of the yard.

Facing Chen Xueru's question and thinking about the choice he had just made, Jia Dongming could only think that this was all fate's arrangement. He smiled and replied, "Xueru! I was delayed for a while when I went to check on the factory. I just got to your place and hadn't had time to open the door. I didn't expect you to walk out of the yard."

Although Chen Xueru was very happy about Jia Dongming's appearance, the moment she opened the door, she obviously discovered that Jia Dongming was about to leave.

Facing Jia Dongming's explanation, Chen Xueru quickly understood what Jia Dongming was thinking. At the same time, she was secretly glad that she opened the door in time. Otherwise, with Jia Dongming's character, she would definitely miss Jia Dongming forever. However, Chen Xueru pretended to know nothing and said to Jia Dongming happily: "Brother Dongming! I waited for you in the yard early in the morning, but I waited and waited, but I didn't see you coming. I thought of coming out to see you, and I didn't expect to meet you."

At this time, Jia Dongming didn't know that his thoughts had been seen through by the shrewd Chen Xueru. Facing Chen Xueru's answer, Jia Dongming could only choose to accept his fate. While pushing his bicycle into the yard, he said to Chen Xueru: "Xueru! I came here this time to bring you a good thing. I guarantee that you will like it very much after seeing it."

After Chen Xueru followed Jia Dongming into the yard, she immediately turned around and closed the gate of the yard. Then she smiled and asked Jia Dongming: "Brother Dongming! I have seen a lot of good things. If I don't like what you take out, what do you think I should do?"

Jia Dongming was 100% confident about what he brought. When he heard Chen Xueru's answer, he said to her confidently, "Xueru! If you don't like it, then we'll do what you say."

Jia Dongming parked his bike and immediately picked up the bag hanging on the handlebars. The sound of glass hitting inside the bag made Chen Xueru vaguely feel that the bag must contain some kind of wine. She then smiled and asked Jia Dongming, "Brother Dongming! You didn't think I like to drink and bought some good wine for me?"

When Jia Dongming heard Chen Xueru's question, he smiled and said to her, "Xueru! You did guess part of it right, but not all of it."

As he spoke, Jia Dongming put the cloth bag on the table in the main room, and then slowly used the rope to open the mouth of the cloth bag. He first took out two bottles of red wine, and then took out a bottle of perfume, a box of lipstick, and a pack of black stockings.

Chen Xueru had several friends in the Soviet Union, and she was not unfamiliar with red wine, so when she saw the red wine that Jia Dongming took out, she was only a little surprised. It was not until she saw the perfume, lipstick, and black stockings that she finally showed a surprised expression on her face. She immediately asked Jia Dongming: "Brother Dongming! What kind of job does your friend do? How can he get these things?"

When Jia Dongming heard Chen Xueru's question, he smiled and said to her, "Xueru! Don't worry about what my friends are doing. Just tell me whether you like these gifts or not."

When Chen Xueru heard what Jia Dongming said, she instinctively wanted to say she liked it, but when she thought of Jia Dongming's previous promise, she immediately swallowed the word "like" that was about to come to her lips, and said to Jia Dongming insincerely: "Brother Dongming! To be honest, I know a few friends in the Su country. My Su friends have given me these things. Now I have a lot of them in my room."

After hearing Chen Xueru's insincere answer, Jia Dongming did not expose her immediately. Instead, he directly opened the packaging of the lipstick box, took the lipstick out of the box, and introduced it to Chen Xueru with a smile: "Xueru! The twelve colors on the lipstick box correspond to the colors in the lipstick. In addition, this black stocking is many times more high-end than the stockings in the Su country."

"This last bottle of perfume is made in France. If you don't believe me, you can smell it. I guarantee you will like it."
