Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Chapter 293: Visiting relatives

Qi Jingzhen's visit to the UK did not have the slightest impact on Li Wei. She still leads a two-point and one-line life. It is September in a blink of an eye. In three more months, her overseas study career will be over.

Qiu Ci and her boyfriend came to visit her in the UK. Qiu Ci invited Li Wei out for dinner. It was the first time that Li Wei saw Qiu Ci’s boyfriend, a tall young man who heard Qiu Ci say he was a second-generation official. , I work in an accounting firm.

Her task for this meal is to eat, as a background character, there is almost no sense of presence.

Until it came out full and full, Li Wei thoughtfully asked, "You two haven't been together for a long time, right? Will you go back to the dormitory at night?"

Qiu Ci said straightforwardly: "No, he finally came to see me, so I naturally want to accompany him. Remember to hand in my homework tomorrow."

"no problem."

Li Wei said goodbye to the two of them, and then turned and went in the other direction.

Passing the dormitory below, several male colleagues were discussing where to go for Christmas. Fang Bin stopped her when Li Wei passed by.

"Li Wei, how about going out on Christmas?"

"Christmas? Shouldn't it be time to go back?"

"What's the rush, the visa doesn't expire until January? We plan to go skiing in Scotland. You should go together? Where is Chiu Ci, she is going to go too?"

Li Wei missed his family very much, and just wanted to rush back as soon as possible. Another colleague also said: "I don't know if I miss this opportunity, I don't know if I will have it again. You think carefully.

Her birthday falls on Christmas Eve. Is this birthday destined to be celebrated outside? She turned upstairs, and soon after returning to the dormitory, the phone rang.

The second time Qi Jingzhen met Li Wei was ten days later, and the meeting place was at Hilton. Although it is not the first time to go to a luxury hotel, it is the first time in the UK. Qi Jing is really a woman with a strong personality, just like the aunt in Shang Shufu. Such a woman is not easy to deal with, so this time Li Wei deliberately chose a dark and conservative suit before going to the appointment. His shoulder-length hair was also half **** and draped behind his head. He drew his eyebrows, put on foundation, and chose **** lipstick.

After packing, she carried the chain bag, changed her shoes, and said goodbye to Qiu Ci.

Qiu Ci said: "You are going to meet your elders in this outfit, and you are seeing the man's elders."

Li smiled and said, "As long as you talk a lot, I'm out."

"Do you want to come back tonight, do you want me to keep the door for you?"

"Should be coming back, but I brought the keys, don't worry, if it's late, go to bed first."

"Okay, be careful on the way." Qiu Ci and Li Wei goodbye.

Li Wei put on a pair of black round-toe strappy shoes and went downstairs.

When passing the room on the second floor, the door was open and the male colleague living inside was watching a football match. When Fang Bin saw Li Wei hurriedly stopped her: "Hey, Li Wei. Have you decided whether you are going to ski? If you decide, we can buy tickets and we have to check the equipment."

"Isn't there a few months left? What anxious?" Li Wei walked away without turning back.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon GMT. She walked out of this long alley and crossed another street, and Fang stopped a taxi.

It was half an hour after arriving at the agreed hotel. When Li Wei was about to open the bag to pay, the car door was opened from the outside.

"How much will I pay for you."

"No need..." That's wrong, Li Wei hurriedly looked up, only to see a man in a suit and leather shoes standing outside the car door, bent and handsome.

"Second...Second brother, why are you here?"

Li Jianbo smiled gently and said: "Why not?" He glanced at the amount on the meter, and took the initiative to pay for Li Wei.

Li Wei got out of the car, and she obviously hadn't gotten used to the man who suddenly appeared in front of her.

"She's afraid you won't find the room, so I will come down to pick you up."

What Li Jianbo said she naturally refers to Qi Jingzhen.

Li Wei followed Li Jianbo into the revolving door, and Li Jianbo reminded Li Xiaoxin carefully in front.

Qi Jing really decided that the suite was on the 21st floor. Standing at the window can have a panoramic view of this prosperous international metropolis.

When Li Wei arrived, Qi Jingzhen made coffee by herself and asked the restaurant to send some desserts.

Li Wei went into the room and leaned forward to say hello to Qi Jing.

Qi Jingzhen turned around, smiled and nodded and said: "The time is just right, neither late nor early."

Qi Jing really wore a dark green silk skirt, because her skin was white, and the dark green didn't feel uncomfortable to her at all.

Li Jianbo closed the door smoothly.

"Jianbo, come and sit together."

"Wait a minute, I'll come when I change my shoes."

Here Qi Jingzhen has asked Li Wei to sit down, and Li Jianbo just walked over. There were empty places beside his mother and sister. After he hesitated for a moment, he sat beside Li Wei. Li Wei took the initiative to move inward, actively keeping a certain distance from Jianbo.

"It's rare that Jianbo came to Britain, so I want to invite you to come over for dinner." Qi Jingzhen smiled very softly.

Li Wei nodded and said, "Yes, thank you aunt for the hospitality."

"I'm so happy to see you two. Li Wei has been in the UK for more than half a year. He must be more familiar with this than me and Jianbo. How about taking us to London on the weekend?

Li Wei naturally obliged to agree.

Not long after sitting down, the phone in the room rang. Qi Jing really sat there and didn't move. Li Jianbo was the nearest to the phone, so he went to answer the phone first.

After a while, Jianbo walked over to his mother and said, "The call from the US is for you to discuss matters."

Qi Jingzhen said: "I'll pick it up."

Qi Jingzhen went to the next room to answer the phone, and Li Jianbo sat back where he was just now. Li Wei looked at the elder brother in front of him and still felt unreal.

"Second brother, why don't you tell me when you are coming to London? When did you arrive?"

"I, I got off the plane at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. The reason I didn't tell you that was because I wanted to surprise you. Do you feel like you are still dreaming now?"

Seeing his elder brother's playful look, Li Wei wondered how old you have been in your two lives, and why your mentality is getting younger and younger.

"Is everything okay at home?"

"It's okay. I went back last month, but the SARS was so violent in the first half of the year. The family's business was greatly affected, and often not even a tourist was received. The occupancy rate during the May 1st Golden Week was even higher than that of previous years. There are none in Chengdu. But my parents are in a hurry.

"Our family is not the only one affected. Everyone is in the same situation and there is nothing to worry about. The National Day should not be affected anymore, right?"

"Well, the epidemic has long passed and travel will not be affected. It will not be isolated and blocked." For Li Jianbo, he has experienced SARS twice. In fact, there was nothing wrong with him in his previous life. At the forefront, I thought I would die, but I survived smoothly.
