My sister-in-law from Qingdao

Dragging my heavy luggage, I finally boarded the train bound for Shanghai.

As I sat with my eyes closed, resting, a clear voice came from beside me: "Are you a salesperson from Linglong Embroidery Co., Ltd."

I quickly opened my eyes and saw a girl standing in front of me.

He looked to be around 26 or 27 years old, with medium-length hair and a height of about 1.7 meters.

She was wearing a light green blended ruffled blouse.

She wore a pair of white trousers on her lower body.

Her face was lightly made up; she wasn't exceptionally beautiful, but she had a refined taste.

"I am, and you are?"

When someone approached me, I felt inexplicably nervous and quickly stood up.

"I'm from Yulan Textile Co., Ltd., and I'm also a salesperson. I visited your company last time. You didn't see me, but I did see you."

The girl smiled sweetly at me, and surprisingly, she reached out and shook my hand, introducing herself as, "My name is Tang Yanran."

"So you work for Yulan Textile Co., Ltd.? Your company is much bigger than ours."

Lin Moli has told me more than once, "I wish Linglong Drawnwork Co., Ltd. could grow to the size of Yulan Textile Co., Ltd."

"We are all show and no substance. As our company grows, so do our flaws. Our products are not as good as yours, and our prices are not competitive."

Since I happened to be alone, Tang Yanran sat down next to me.

We talked a lot along the way.

They chatted enthusiastically about everything from company development to the international demand for drawnwork textiles.

I have to admit, this girl knows much more than I do.

We traveled all the way and arrived in Shanghai at around 2 p.m.

I was carrying one large suitcase, while she was carrying two.

I'm a man, and I've gotten to know her along the way, so I offered to help her with one of the loads.

"Chen Dong, where do you live?"

"I'm staying at a hotel in front of the Hilton."

"Ugh, your boss is so stingy! How could he let you stay in a cheap hotel? Shouldn't he have put you in the Hilton?"

"We're both pulling our suitcases out of the station," she said with a smile.

This is not Lin Moli's fault. Lin Moli told me that I am reimbursed for all my business trip expenses and can stay wherever I want.

But I felt that since they were so good to me, I should save the company some money if I could, so I booked a chain hotel online for 150 yuan a night.

"Our boss isn't stingy at all; I decided it myself, and I can use the remaining money to eat something nice."

I explained casually.

"Can you treat me to dinner tonight?" Tang Yanran suddenly asked.

"No problem, as long as you don't eat fancy food, I'll treat you to anything."

"It's so good to have you."

Tang Yanran smiled slightly and leaned closer to me, her shoulder accidentally brushing against mine.

The two of us took a taxi to the Hilton and dropped off our luggage.

I then took a taxi back to the 7 Days Holiday Hotel where I was staying.

Lankao was originally scheduled to arrive at 4 p.m., but the plane encountered turbulence in the air and was delayed.

We won't arrive at the Hilton until around 7:00, so the negotiations have been postponed until tomorrow.

I took a shower at the hotel, then lay in bed and took out my phone to call Lin Moli.

"Xiao Dong, you've arrived? Did you meet the client?"

Lin Moli's voice was gentle and warm.

"I've arrived at the hotel, but the client's flight was delayed. I just contacted the middleman, and he said negotiations will begin at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Okay, go to the hotel and get some rest. Don't skimp on food and drinks. You must take good care of yourself while you're traveling."

As I listened to her tender words, Lin Moli's delicate and charming face appeared in my mind.

"I miss you, can we video chat?"

"It's best not to video chat, or you'll be consumed by longing. The more you miss me, the more enthusiastic you'll be when you come back."

Lin Moli lowered her voice considerably, probably because she was afraid others would hear.

"Okay, you've made a promise, haven't you? You'll give me a welcome-back dinner when I go back."

"That's for sure. When you come back, I'll cook eight dishes and a soup at home, light white candles, and take good care of you."

"Oh dear, now that you say that, I can't take it anymore. I want to go back to you right now."

"You don't need to negotiate anymore, business is more important. Okay, I'm not talking to you anymore, if we keep talking we might just end up flying back, and that would be a loss."

"Okay, that's enough. But it's a promise, when you get back tomorrow night, be all clean and ready for me."

"How shameless! Aren't you embarrassed? Alright, that's enough. I'm going to have dinner with the suppliers with the finance manager in a bit."

After hanging up the phone, I lay there sprawled out, my mind filled with images of Lin Moli.

After thinking about it for a long time, I still can't figure out my feelings for her.

If a divorced woman doesn't want to get married again, then let's maintain this relationship.

I don't know if it was because I didn't sleep well last night or what, but lying in bed, I drifted off to sleep in a daze.

I was startled awake by a cell phone ringing.

I picked up my phone and saw it was an unfamiliar Qingdao number.

I answered immediately.

"Hey, Chen Dong, weren't you going to treat me to dinner?"

Tang Yanran's clear and gentle voice came through the phone.

How did you get my phone number?

"Isn't it easy to find your phone number? I have many friends in your company's foreign trade department."

"I see. I'm at the 7 Days Holiday Inn in the southwest corner of the Hilton. I'll go downstairs and wait for you. Come on over."

After hanging up the phone, I quickly got out of bed, went to the bathroom to wash my face, changed into clean clothes, and then went downstairs.

After waiting at the door for seven or eight minutes, I saw Tang Yanran walk over from that direction.

The girl changed her top into a pink tight-fitting tank top, but still wore the same white tight-fitting pants.

He was carrying a backpack that was neither too big nor too small.

From afar, she appears delicate and beautiful, especially her figure, which is exquisite and graceful.

She walks with a model-like gait, her hips sway slightly, and her waist is very flexible.

As I got closer, I saw that she was wearing makeup, and her face was delicate and lovely.

She was also wearing perfume, which gave off an alluring scent.

Just as we were walking towards the pedestrian street ahead.

Tang Yanran made a surprising move, gently wrapping her arms around mine.

Her action surprised me, and I instinctively wanted to push her away.

Unexpectedly, Tang Yanran smiled and said, "Let me hug you and see if it feels like having a boyfriend."

After saying that, he let go of my arm.

My face flushed red instantly, but I quickly recovered and joked, "Does it feel like you have a boyfriend?"

Tang Yanran gently shook her head and said, "No."

"Oh, no?" I felt a little disappointed.

"Yes, we're about the same height, so I don't have that feeling of being able to lean on someone."

Her words immediately made me feel defeated and discouraged.

I'm 1.75 meters tall, and this girl is about 1.7 meters tall too, but she was wearing high heels, so we're about the same height.

"What's wrong? Are you angry?" Tang Yanran saw that I didn't look too good and hugged my arm again.

As he spoke, his body subtly twitched.

This made me feel the presence of her peaks.

It shouldn't be that big.
