When Chen Jiayu visited Fang Hao's home for the first time, he saw a cabinet of airplane model collections in his living room. Although he lives alone, their home is indeed very warm and cozy. Fang Hao was catching up with some friends at the door, but Fang Shengjie took Chen Jiayu to visit Fang Hao's living room. Chen Jiayu picked up an airplane model, blocked the fuselage logo, and teased Fang Shengjie: "Shengjie, let me test you, what kind of airplane is this?"
Of course Fang Shengjie didn't know. He hesitated for a while and guessed blindly: "That... 747?"
Chen Jiayu revealed the answer: "It's a 737. The flight I took you on was from Shenzhen Bao'an to Beijing Daxing."
Fang Shengjie stuck out his tongue.
Fang Hao watched the two people chatting about the plane from a distance and felt that this scene was almost unreal. He might not have believed it two months ago.
I don't know who spread the news about Fang Hao. Half of the people in the civil aviation circle came here who love to play. Everyone knew that there was a party held at the controller's house on Friday night, and the doorbell kept ringing since 9:30. At the busiest time, their 100-square-meter house had nearly thirty people packed into it. Fang Hao said to Zhou Qichen, "I knew it was you who pulled the person. The people who came were all flight attendants and flight attendants, so it couldn't have been the controllers. It definitely couldn't be Zheng Xiaoxu or Chen Jiayu in the flight. Then you would be the only one left." .
Fortunately, his family has sufficient alcohol reserves, and Lang Feng also brought a few bottles of champagne as a birthday gift. Fang Hao opened the refrigerator door and took out a box of beer and several bottles of spirits, as well as prepared soda water, lime and salt, and said he would make some cocktails for everyone.
Zhou Qichen also felt guilty and asked Fang Hao to chat with his friends, while he took the initiative to help with the bartending. There is a high separation between the kitchen and the living room of Fang Hao's house, which is like a bar counter. Zhou Qichen mixed it up skillfully, mixing a simple gin and tonic for Chen Jiayu, giving Chu Yirou a glass of Margarita, and then took several different orders.
He was serving here when a familiar face came over and called him: "Brother Chen. Long time no see."
Zhou Qichen raised his head and met a pair of smiling eyes. The person who came was Luo Xiao, a flight attendant from the same company. His skin was very fair and he was very handsome. They slept together once half a year ago, but nothing happened since then, and they never met each other during the execution. I didn't expect that someone called him here. It was really a coincidence.
He had no choice but to say hello to him.
Luo Xiao said: "Give me a drink too."
"What do you want?" Zhou Qichen asked him.
Luo Xiao said in an intimate way: "You can come to whatever you think I'm suitable for." After saying that, he no longer stood on the other side of the bar, but walked around to Zhou Qichen to watch him mix drinks, and stood close to his arm. Very close.
Zhou Qichen gave him a glass of gin and tonic, not because he thought Luo Xiao was suitable, but because gin and tonic was the simplest. Gin and tonic water would be enough, and he wanted to end this embarrassing encounter quickly.
Luo Xiao obviously didn't think so, and still asked him: "Brother Chen, you haven't contacted me since."
"Well...I've been a little busy lately, sorry." He put the glass on the bar and slid it to Luo Xiao, "Drink slowly, it's fun."
His black T-shirt was soaked by the splashed water, and his arms showed strong muscle lines. When he turned his head and pursed his lips and smiled, he looked so manly that Luo Xiao was stunned.
Not only Luo Xiao was watching, but Chen Jiayu, Fang Hao and Lang Feng also saw it from a distance. Chen Jiayu joked behind his back: "Who invited them all? Your home has become a stronghold. It's really lively."
Fang Hao said with a smile: "He must have invited him himself." Zhou Qichen looked like a prodigal and a playboy. After joining the civil aviation industry, he had a lot of freedom and no longer had family worries, so after two or three years, he could be considered a veteran in love. I often walk by the river, and my shoes don’t get wet. He didn't know that Luo Xiao really wasn't invited by Zhou Qichen personally. He might have passed it on from person to person.
He looked at Lang Feng who was still standing there and realized that it was not a good idea to say this. After all, he invited Lang Feng over today just to help the two people get to know each other on the spot. Just as he was about to say something, Lang Feng took the initiative and said, "I'm going to get a drink too."
Fang Hao saw that it was just right and there was no need to introduce him, so he nodded.
After Luo Xiao left, Lang Feng came closer and said, "Can I have a glass of Margarita?"
Zhou Qichen glanced at him, then nodded, cut the lime slices, wiped the rim of the glass with his hands to moisten it, then inverted it on a plate filled with salt, dipped it in salt, ice cubes, and syrup, and finished it step by step. , and finally silently poured twice the amount of agave into it.
While waiting, Lang Feng talked to him naturally and asked: "Are you Fang Hao's friend? What do you call him?"
"..." Zhou Qichen was stunned when he asked him. He did some math and found out that Lang Feng didn't recognize him! He had thought Lang Feng's eyes were very meaningful in the car before, but it seemed that he was overthinking it.
"Zhou Qichen." He said, "We talked." He thought about it carefully. After Lang Feng added him, they did not make an appointment. His WeChat avatar was not his, and he had never posted any photos of himself in Moments. So from Lang Feng's point of view, he is equivalent to adding a zombie account.
Lang Feng also remembered it, and felt a little embarrassed at this moment. He remembered Zhou Qichen's simple "Forget it, no date". He said: "I haven't seen you...at the airport before. Are you also a pilot?"
"Well, HNA." Zhou Qichen said in his heart, but I have seen you before.
The two of them hadn't said a word before the doorbell rang again. At first, it was too noisy in the room and no one heard it. Fang Shengjie was about to open it when he saw there seemed to be a key, so he opened the door directly. Fan Ruolan stood at the door, holding a cake in his hand.
The living room was quiet for a second. Everyone should have guessed who was coming. Everyone looked towards the kitchen. There were open beer cans and liquor bottles on the floor. Fang Hao and a few people were smoking with the window open. Smoking is a mess. But when Fan Ruolan saw this posture, she didn't find anything picky. She quickly waved her hand and said, "You just have fun, I'll give you a cake."
Fang Hao and Fang Shengjie shouted in unison: "Mom." This was indeed a surprise. Fan Ruolan originally told Fang Hao to come tomorrow.
Fang Hao quickly smoked a cigarette and came over to take the cake, but Fang Shengjie screamed in his heart that it was already past midnight, and Fan Ruolan was probably going to kidnap him.
Fan Ruolan said: "I know you don't like eating too sweet, so I made you a matcha cake. I didn't know you invited so many friends, maybe it's not enough."
Chen Jiayu also watched from a distance. Fan Ruolan was wearing a long suspender skirt and a white shirt. She looked in her fifties, but she was still very beautiful, mainly because of her outstanding temperament and fashionable dress. Compared to Fang Shengjie, Fang Hao's eyebrows are more like hers. Fan Ruolan was holding the cake, with Fang Hao and Fang Shengjie on her left and right. The scene was as harmonious as a painting.
Fang Hao took the cake and opened the box. At this time, Fan Ruolan whispered in his ear: "Fang Hao, has your partner come today? Let me take a look."
"Mom," Fang Hao said helplessly, "stop gossiping, I'm so embarrassed."
As expected, Fang Shengjie was called away by Fan Ruolan. Before leaving, he said wait a moment, then rushed to Chen Jiayu and said, "Brother Jiayu, let's make a friend. Come back to our house next time and play Switch." Fang Hao saw it this time, but Unable to stop him, he watched Chen Jiayu happily becoming friends with Fang Shengjie. He didn't guess that on the way back, Fang Shengjie tipped off Fan Ruolan and told Fan Ruolan that the last person I went to find was my brother's potential partner, and he said with his elbows turned out, handsome, isn't he? It's still famous.
In the kitchen, the cake sent by Fan Ruolan was opened. The matcha cake was made to look like a green lawn. In the middle of the lawn was a runway. Next to it was a very ordinary airplane and the four letters "ZBAD". It was Daxing. The ICAO code of the airport. Everyone praised the gift as being so special. Fang Hao, who has never been one to show off, felt particularly moved when he saw it.
Chen Jiayu whispered in his ear: "Auntie is interested."
After this scene, the two of them had very little time to talk alone. Fang Hao is the protagonist of the wine party. He has to greet everyone and not ignore anyone. Chen Jiayu is also very popular. Even if he doesn't chat with Fang Hao, many people come to talk to him. Counting this, this is the first time they talk face to face alone.
Fang Hao smiled and said: "It has never been so grand in the past years, and I don't like eating cakes. This year it may be... the thirtieth mark." There was a bit of noise in the room, and Chen Jiayu wanted to get closer to him to talk: "I I also prepared a birthday present for you, do you want to take a look at it now?"
Fang Hao said: "Okay."
Chen Jiayu finally caught the person, so he took out the gift from a corner and handed it to him - Fang Hao looked at the huge box and knew that he had spent money.
"Hey..." He opened one layer, and when he saw the logo inside, he knew what was inside. Bofu's semi-automatic home espresso machine. It's a big silver thing, very heavy, takes up a lot of space, and is very elegant. It’s the latest model that can grind beans and froth milk. Fang Hao doesn’t know how much it costs, but it’s certainly not cheap.
Chen Jiayu explained beside him: "I don't know what you want, so I'll start with what I know."
Fang Hao looked into his eyes and said, "Thank you, Brother Jia."
Chen Jiayu didn't shy away, looked at him and said, "Yeah."
"From now on...you don't need to invite me to drink coffee, haha." Fang Hao joked.
Chen Jiayu also answered with a smile: "17 Left is also closed, and I can't afford to bribe you."
