Chapter 240 Gold Pendant Necklace
Mei Ling'er was delighted to find that there was still room for one more person in the elevator. The corners of her mouth instantly rose and she stepped forward.
"There's no room left. Please take the next one!"
A boy wearing black glasses standing near the elevator door refused expressionlessly.
As he spoke, his hand reached for the elevator panel and pressed the close button.
Before the elevator door closed, Mei Ling'er saw the girl in the black coat who had given her a small step a second ago, looking at the man with glasses with a surprised expression.
The corners of Mei Ling'er's mouth began to move downwards the moment the man with glasses spoke.
After the elevator door closed, she cursed the other person in her heart.
In daily life, there are always people who are unwilling to provide small conveniences to strangers, even if it does not cause any harm to themselves.
Ugh……
Mei Ling'er sighed softly, thinking that the person she was going to have a blind date with was still waiting for her, and temporarily put this little episode aside in her heart.
When she ran all the way to the restaurant near the company, she found that the other party had not arrived yet.
She felt a little relieved and a little angry. She was relieved that the other party didn't see her sweating, but she was angry that the other party arrived later than her.
She glanced at her watch and saw that the blind date was already five minutes late.
Mei Ling'er took out her cell phone and asked the blind date guy on WeChat where he was, and he replied.
【Coming. 】
Just this one sentence, no explanation, no extra words.
Mei Ling'er took out a napkin, sat down, and tore it into small strips.
Soon, on the table in front of her, small strips of napkins were piled up into a small meat bun.
"Hello there!"
"Sorry, I got delayed on the way."
Mei Ling'er looked up.
Isn’t this the guy with glasses in the elevator... How could such a coincidence happen in the world?
And Mei Ling'er caught up with her. It's really speechless!
The blind date guy sat down opposite me and started looking at the menu.
Mei Ling'er lowered her head and sighed softly.
It doesn’t matter. Maybe the blind date guy was in a hurry to get on the blind date, so he was in a hurry to close the elevator.
No! The blind date guy came downstairs before her, but why did he come later than her?
Judging from his reaction just now, he didn't seem to recognize her.
Mei Ling'er frowned and said:
"You just said you were delayed on the road. What was it?"
Lin Xiao was anxiously looking at the menu. When Mei Ling'er asked him this, he answered absentmindedly:
"Nothing. I was delayed a bit by a woman in a mask trying to grab the elevator."
Mei Ling'er was so angry that she wanted to pound the table. She closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths.
"Oh, then she is quite uncultured."
"um, yes."
Lin Xiao handed over the menu: "I've ordered. If there's no problem, I'll call the waiter."
Mei Ling'er looked at the three dishes and one soup she ordered and was speechless.
I nodded, just wanting to finish my meal and leave.
There were a lot of people eating at noon, and Mei Ling'er and Lin Xiao waited for a long time.
Lin Xiao seemed to be well prepared. He took a sip of barley tea and slowly said:
"Your legs are quite long. I heard from the introducer that you are almost 1.7 meters tall?"
Mei Ling'er's discomfort was about to overflow, she tried her best to restrain herself, and finally just smiled slightly.
"Are you usually busy? How much is your annual income?"
"Hello! The scrambled eggs with tomatoes are ready."
The waiter and Lin Xiao said this at the same time. Lin Xiao glanced at the waiter and didn't ask any more questions.
Mei Ling'er saw another waiter carrying dishes towards their table and quickly picked up her chopsticks to eat.
She just wanted to eat more and didn't want to communicate with the other person at all.
Lin Xiao looked at the girl wolfing down the food in front of him and immediately lost all his good impression of her. His mother had told her that girls who eat well are blessed and can bring good luck to their husbands.
He didn't want to ask about the other party's situation anymore, so he lowered his head and started eating. He had to pay for half of the meal, so he had to eat his money back!
For a moment, the only sound at Mei Ling'er's table was the collision of chopsticks and bowls.
In less than ten minutes, the sounds gradually stopped.
"Waiter!" Mei Ling'er raised her hand and gestured, "Here's the bill."
"I still have things to do at the company, so that's all for today~" Mei Ling'er smiled gently and lovely.
Lin Xiao was moved for a moment, but reason overcame emotion. He had to listen to his mother and find a wife who would bring good luck to him.
"We've had a good meal today, right?" Mei Ling'er asked with a smile.
Lin readily agreed: "Okay, sure!"
When the two of them were paying the bill, the waiter was a little slow. Lin Xiao acted very impatient and acted condescending.
After finally settling the bill, the two could separate.
Only then did Mei Ling'er realize that Lin Xiao's forehead was black, which was a sign of bad luck.
Thinking of his distortion of the truth about the elevator incident, Mei Ling'er felt that he might have done a lot of similar things, which had accumulated to the point of finally exploding.
Looking at the other person's back, I said silently in my heart: Take care of yourself.
hiss!
Lin Xiao suddenly felt a chill on the back of his head. He shrank his neck, reached behind his head with his right hand, and turned his body to the left.
But I found that there was nothing behind me.
This gave him another chill, and he unconsciously quickened his pace.
Just as he reached the turning point of the intersection, he saw a glittering golden chain on the side of the road. He looked around and found no one else around.
Lin Xiao slowly squatted down, quickly picked up the chain, put it in his pocket, and stood up and left. The whole action was done in one go.
After walking a distance, he hid stealthily at the foot of a wall, took out the chain, bit it with his teeth, and swallowed it in one bite.
"it is true!"
Lin Xiao was so happy that he didn't expect a gold chain to fall from the sky. This was probably God's compensation for his unsuccessful blind date today.
When he arrived at the office building, it was not yet time for lunch break. Lin Xiao was killing time in the central park of the park, planning to go upstairs when the time was almost up.
The two cleaning ladies next to them were chatting excitedly, and the tall one said:
"Oh! Do you know?"
The chubby aunt instantly perked up and came closer, asking, "What's going on?"
"I heard that Lao Sun lost a gold necklace right here. I asked her why she didn't look for it, but she said she had looked but couldn't find it."
"Is it the gold pendant necklace that she usually treasures? Doesn't she treasure it so much? She shows it off right under our noses every day." The chubby aunt had a look of disgust on her face.
"Yes, she wears it every day. She didn't wear it this morning, so I asked her about it, and she told me that she lost it." The tall aunt explained.
When Lin Xiao heard this, he immediately straightened up. He had been drowsy from being warmed by the sun, but now he was completely awake.
I secretly rubbed the necklace in my pocket with my hand, as if afraid that the aunt I was chatting with would notice, and walked away with my hand covering my pocket.
