Chapter 793 The blind date is a hearing-impaired person 11
Zhou Lusheng looked at the woman in front of him and felt as if he was hit in the face with a stick, making him see stars.
For a moment, he almost forgot how to move his limbs. He just relied on muscle memory to open the door, make way, let the female guest in, and then close the door.
It was time to close the door when he suddenly came to his senses. The hand that was originally about to close the door became clumsy. After hesitating for a moment, he half-pulled the door without closing it and went into the house.
He always thought it was a bit strange for a man and a woman to stay alone in a room with the door closed late at night.
Inside the house, Zhao Huanxin and Zhou Lusheng looked at each other.
Zhou Lusheng sat on the sofa, looking at the strange girl in front of him who claimed to be Uncle Zhao's daughter. He felt as if his brain was filled with cement. The sticky cement blocked his brain circuits and he had no idea at all.
As a result, he sat on the sofa with Zhao Huanxi in a daze for a while. When Zhao Huanxi looked a little embarrassed, he remembered that he had not poured a glass of water for the guest.
Zhou Lusheng hurriedly stood up, poured a cup of hot water to make tea, brought it over, and gently placed it on Zhao Huanxin's desk.
Zhao Huanxin took the cup of water, said thank you, picked up the cup, took a sip and got down to business.
"It was my fault that I didn't arrive at the restaurant on time last time. You should have eaten without waiting too long, right?"
Zhou Lusheng’s mind was pulled back to the memory of that day, and he didn’t know how to answer for a moment.
He did not wait long to eat, but he did not eat alone.
He thinks that if he doesn't tell lies often, he will appear unskilled.
However, Zhao Huanxin interpreted his silence as having another meaning.
"Did you wait for a long time that day?" Zhao Huanxin paused, and then continued at a slower pace than before, "Mr. Zhou, my parents have been asking me to meet you, but to be honest, I personally don't plan to find a marriage partner in the short term. And forgive me for being blunt, although the accident last year took away one of my legs, I don't think like my parents that I must find someone with the same physical disability..."
Zhou Lusheng didn't know why. It was obvious that the girl was rejecting him, but inexplicably, after hearing these words, his heart, which had been wavering since just now, suddenly relaxed, and now he dared to look Zhao Huanxin in the face.
Just as he was about to type, Zhao Huanxin stopped him.
"You can use sign language. I work at a sign language training school."
Zhou Lusheng was stunned, and some information flashed through his mind in a flash.
He had forgotten about it before, but now he has captured it.
He remembered that Zhou's mother once whispered in his ear that Uncle Zhao's daughter knew sign language, which was why Zhou's mother and Uncle Zhao tried their best to bring the two together.
After hearing what Zhao Huanxin said, Zhou Lusheng did not insist on typing, but raised his hand and started signing.
Sign language communication is his first language. It is more convenient, faster and easier to express than typing.
[Ms. Zhao, thank you for coming to tell me this today. I understand your thoughts. Don't worry, I don't agree with your blind date either, but my parents are urging me to go on a blind date...]
Although Zhao Huanxin was not prepared to continue the blind date with Zhou Lusheng, she felt a little uncomfortable after hearing what Zhou Lusheng said.
Because what she imagined in her mind was that Zhou Lusheng was chosen by her.
After all, as a deaf-mute, it was much harder for Zhou Lusheng to find a partner than for her, and she happened to be a sign language training teacher, so there was no problem in communication with him...
Besides, the feeling Zhou Lusheng gave Zhao Huanxin was quite different from her impression of a deaf-mute person.
One of the reasons why she didn't want to go on a blind date with Zhou Lusheng was that as a sign language teacher, she had seen too many deaf-mute people. In addition to language problems, they also had some problems communicating with ordinary people mentally.
He can't feel some of the things you said to him at all.
You say the sound of rain is pattering, but he only thinks the rain is cold. You say the water is boiling, but he only knows that the water is hot. You say the movie is good, but he only thinks the movie is flashing too fast and he doesn't have time to read the subtitles.
Moreover, many times, deaf-mute people, who have one less source of information than ordinary people, tend to be depressed or extreme because of their different experiences in childhood. In short, this is what Zhao Huanxin feels.
But the first sight of the person in front of him who opened the door gave Zhao Huanxin a different feeling.
If I didn't know in advance that the other person was deaf and mute, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between him and an ordinary person just by looking at his appearance.
At most, he looked younger than her father said.
Zhao Huanxin left Zhou Lusheng feeling unhappy.
At this time, Zhou Lusheng, who was sitting in the room, was also in a daze, holding a mobile phone in his hand. He opened the chat box of that person and typed, deleted and reduced, like a fish that had been in the pot for a long time, and was unwilling to give up and was flapping back and forth.
In the end, I didn't press the send button. She had just said good night and was probably asleep.
Zhou Lusheng didn't want to disturb her rest.
The next morning, when Lingyao woke up, she found two more messages on her phone.
From five in the morning.
Zhou Zhou Bread Order: [Aren’t you Uncle Zhao’s daughter? Why did you lie to me? ]
Zhou Zhou Bread Order: [Who are you? Can you tell me? 】
Lingyao's eyelids twitched, and she couldn't figure out what went wrong.
However, Zhou Lusheng asked this question because he must have discovered something and was sure that she had lied to him, so he asked directly.
Lingyao thought for a moment, checked the time, picked up her phone and contacted the person in charge of the company's duty, and changed her morning job to a night shift.
……
At Zhou Zhou Bakery, Zhou Lusheng came to open the door early in the morning, arriving earlier than Li Gui.
When Li Gui walked into the bakery before the morning dew completely dissipated, he was surprised to find that his boss had already baked the first batch of bread in the store.
He hurried over to help pack and wanted to ask the boss why he came so early today, but when he saw Zhou Lusheng's rare serious brows, he stopped waving his hand.
Zhou Lusheng was busy all morning like a spinning top without stopping.
Seeing that the boss was busy, Li Gui felt embarrassed to take a break, so he started packing the bread after it came out of the oven. By ten o'clock in the morning, the two of them had basically finished all the orders from yesterday to today.
Li Gui's hands were sore, not to mention Zhou Lusheng, who had to knead the dough, shape it, taste it, and bake it.
"Welcome, our store is self-service, all information is on the outer packaging, everyone is welcome to buy as needed."
Both of the people working at Zhou Zhou Bakery are deaf-mute and unable to greet customers. So Zhou Lusheng asked someone to make a sensor recording in advance. After turning on the machine, a prompt sound will be emitted as soon as it senses someone coming in.
However, it is not completely self-service. Sometimes Li Gui will greet the guests and give them food tastings and take-away meals.
This sensor sound also has a flashing light system. When the prompt sound is heard, the lights at the cash register will flash.
Li Gui looked up.
It was just dawn at this time. In the first rays of sunlight in the morning, the woman was wearing a white dress that went below her knees and had slightly curled hems, like a noble gardenia bud about to bloom.
