Free heart

Wu Wenjing paused for two seconds, and replied with a half-smile, "Because you gave me a very grand wedding gift, but you didn't attend our wedding banquet in time."

When Shen Xiaoxiao heard that this was the reason, she shook her head, "A bottle of fragrance plus three bottles of portable fragrance mist is not a very grand congratulatory gift. As far as I know, it is popular to give red envelopes for weddings in China, isn't it?"

"Yes. Xiaoxiao, you don't know, even the wedding red envelopes from best friends are only 1000 yuan at most."

"Oh, then should I give you another 1000 yuan red envelope?"

"Okay, am I that brazen?"

"What does this have to do with "brazenness"? Because you have already told me how much gift money should be included in the red envelope."

"Stop, stop, go on, I have to find a crack in the ground and get in quickly." Wu Wenjing quickly stopped.

I pursed my lips on purpose and looked at the other party, and then said, "Little, the two things you gave me, both in terms of brand and value, have greatly exceeded the value of the red envelope. So, you don't need to give me the red envelope. "

Shen Xiaoxiao shrugged, "Well, I don't object to your suggestion."

"Now, agree to accept our invitation?"

"Of course. So, what do you two want to treat me to?"

"Considering your living habits in the United States for many years, let's eat steak today, okay?"

"Steak? Well, no problem."

Wu Wenjing showed a girlish smile, stood up and said, "Let's go if there is no problem."

Shen Xiaoxiao looked up at her, "Where are you going?"

"Go to a steak restaurant."

"It's only four o'clock in the afternoon, isn't it too early?"

"No. We have to drive for more than an hour from Songjiang to the restaurant."

"Uh, if I go to a more formal western restaurant, I need to go home and change."

"No need to change. Xiaoxiao, you don't have to be so particular about it when you return to China, really."

The two quickly returned to the parking place in front of the bank. When they got into the car, Shen Xiaoxiao asked again, "Where is the restaurant you mentioned?"

Wu Wenjing pulled the seatbelt proficiently, "In the Pudong New Area."

"Pudong New Area? Isn't that very close to where Shen Ying and Zhou Lin work?"

"I think, maybe."

"I see. What about your husband?"

"He came over after work."

After driving for 1 hour and 11 minutes or 42.5 kilometers, Shen Xiaoxiao, led by Wu Wenjing, came to the bank of the Huangpu River in Pudong New Area.There is also a world-famous place name - Lujiazui, which is one of the most influential financial centers in China.

"Look, how's it going here?" Wu Wenjing asked while driving the car.

"It looks good, comparable to Wall Street in New York." Shen Xiaoxiao looked out of the car window curiously.

"Of course! This is the most charming place in Shanghai, a symbol of my country's reform and opening up."

"uh-huh."

"Since the State Council announced the development of Pudong in 90, it is the headquarters of many multinational banks in Greater China and East Asia."

"Wow, that's amazing."

"Look, there is the Oriental Pearl Tower. Isn't it beautiful!"

"It's beautiful. Then what is the Oriental Pearl Tower used for?"

"The radio and television tower mainly undertakes the business of wireless TV transmission. There are also some landscapes and facilities in the tower, such as space capsules, revolving restaurants, and urban historical development exhibition halls."

As the Oriental Pearl TV Tower gradually receded behind him, Shen Xiaoxiao suddenly asked, "Do you know how tall this TV Tower is?"

Wu Wenjing glanced at her, thought and replied, "I remember it was 470 meters, which is almost the same data."

In a blink of an eye, the Volkswagen Sagitar drove into the underground parking lot of the IFC Mall at No. 8 Century Avenue.Before getting out of the car, Wu Wenjing thought that Xiaoxiao wanted to go to the TV Tower, "If you want to go to the Eastern Civilization Pearl, I can be your guide."

Shen Xiaoxiao said, "It's okay, I just asked casually."

Taking the elevator to the 4th floor of the IFC, the two quickly walked into an American steak restaurant called "Molton's Steakhouse" on the 4th floor.

Under the guidance of the waiter, the two came to Wu Wenjing's pre-booked four-seater table.Shen Xiaoxiao sat down at the dining table generously, and said with a smile, "So you invited me to Morton's Steakhouse for dinner!"

Wu Wenjing put her bag on the dining table, "Have you eaten at this restaurant?"

"Hmm. Morton's Steakhouse is also a well-known chain restaurant in the United States. They have opened five steakhouses in New York. Before I returned to China, it seemed that one had been permanently closed."

"Morton's Steakhouse? Isn't it called Morton's?"

"Because their English name is Morton, we generally call it Morton Steak."

Shen Xiaoxiao also introduced, "Morton's Steakhouse was established in Chicago in 1978, and later they moved the company's headquarters to Houston, Texas."

At this moment, a rush of footsteps came from beside the two of them.A professional man in his 30s, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, came over, "Sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm late!"

Wu Wenjing knew who was coming as soon as she heard the voice.Standing up calmly, he said with a smile, "Xiao Xiao, let me introduce you. This is my husband of three months newly married, Zhao Jianhui."

Zhao Jianhui, who is still quite talented, waited for Shen Xiaoxiao to stand up, and then stretched out his right hand to gently hold the other's outstretched hand, "Hello, I am Wu Wenjing's husband, and I work in the Bank-Card Center of the City Branch. .”

Shen Xiaoxiao nodded slightly, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Zhao Jianhui. I'm Shen Xiaoxiao, and I don't have a job yet."

Zhao Jianhui first opened the seat for his wife, and then hurriedly opened the seat for Xiaoxiao, "Ladies, please sit down."

After the three of them took their seats, Shen Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, and said to Wu Wenjing, "I told you a long time ago, I should go home and change into a formal evening dress."

Wu Wenjing giggled, "Isn't it? An evening dress, that kind of floor-length dress with a big V-neck and an open back?"

"Yeah, is there a problem?"

"no problem."

Zhao Jianhui heard what the two women were talking about, coughed twice and said, "Miss Shen, today's dinner is a gathering among friends, so don't pay too much attention."

Shen Xiaoxiao nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Zhao."

"Since you and Wen Jing are good friends, then we are also friends, right?"

"of course."

Wu Wenjing handed the menu to the opposite side, "Xiao Xiao, you come to order. Just order whatever you want."

When Shen Xiaoxiao buried her head in the menu, she turned to her husband and asked, "Why are you here so soon?"

Zhao Jianhui said in a low voice, "I asked the leader for a leave of absence and came out 15 minutes earlier."
