Chapter 40: Patience and Waiting
When he went to Zhong's house for dinner, Tang Qin was more cautious in choosing clothes than going to participate in activities. In the past, even if she had dinner with Zhong Qiaoyun, she was in the restaurant, but this time not only at home, but more importantly, with Zhong Jian. She chose and chose again and again, picked out a plain dress, matched it with simple shoes and a bag, painted a refreshing makeup, and tied her long hair neatly behind her head.
Zhong Zhiqi drove to pick up Tang Qin to Zhong Mansion, and saw her smiling and praising her as usual, "It's so beautiful today." ”
Tang Qin responded with a smile, "I've been too busy lately, I don't have time to clean up myself, so take care of it briefly." ”
"Simplicity is the most beautiful. Zhong Zhiqi said suddenly.
After hearing this, Tang Qin's mind immediately appeared with the image of Song Shiyun, plain T, jeans, or simple cotton and linen clothes, Song Shiyun, who teaches art, can do this, but she can't.
"Is today a special day?" asked Tang Qin.
Zhong Zhiqi looked at Tang Qin blankly, "What's wrong?"
Tang Qin smiled, "Why do you suddenly want to go to your grandfather's house for dinner?"
Zhong Zhiqi sighed lightly, "It's nothing, it's just a casual meal." ”
Zhong Zhiqi didn't want to talk any further, so Tang Qin didn't ask much. When the two of them arrived home, Zhong Jian was still resting upstairs, Zhong Qiaoyun did not arrive, only Zhong Zhiyan sat in the living room and played games.
Zhong Zhiqi saw that Zhong Zhiyan was in the living room, so he didn't go there, asked the maid and said that he was ready to eat, and took Tang Qin directly to the dining room. Zhong Qiaoyun arrived soon and went directly to the dining room, and as soon as she finished greeting Tang Qin, Zhong Zhiyan walked in with Zhong Jian in her arms. Zhong Jian's gaze fell on Tang Qin.
Seeing this, Tang Qin immediately stood up, and Zhong Zhiqi spoke at this time, "Grandpa, this is Tang Qin." ”
Tang Qin was shocked, but still kept smiling, "Grandpa." ”
Zhong Jian nodded at Tang Qin, "Sit down, let's eat." ”
Waiting for Zhong Jian to sit down, the others sat down, Zhong Jian picked up the chopsticks, and the others followed.
"What does Tang Qin do?" Zhong Jian asked.
"I'm an actor. Tang Qin replied.
"Oh. ”
Zhong Jian only responded, and Zhong Zhiyan immediately answered, "Tang Qin's play is very good." ”
Zhong Jian looked at Zhong Zhiyan, his eyes were full of love, "You saw it?"
"Well, I've seen a lot of it in my hometown, and it's very popular. Zhong Zhiyan replied.
Zhong Jian nodded, "That should be good." ”
Zhong Zhiyan looked at Tang Qin, the corners of Tang Qin's mouth rose and smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes. Zhong Zhiyan had no choice but to lower his head to eat.
"Two days ago, the news was rebroadcast, and the news of Zhiyan going to disaster relief was released. ”
Zhong Jian suddenly mentioned it, Zhong Qiaoyun smiled, "This news is so good, many friends came to ask me and advertised for our group." ”
"It's true that this kind of advertising can't be bought with money. Zhong Jian said with satisfaction.
Zhong Qiaoyun glanced at Zhong Jian, and then at Zhong Zhiyan, "Zhiyan, you are too sharp at this critical moment. ”
Zhong Zhiyan smiled awkwardly, "Auntie, I'm ...... I didn't think about it that much. ”
Zhong Qiaoyun showed a surprised expression, "That's a kind of talent, others haven't worked hard yet." ”
After speaking, Zhong Qiaoyun glanced at Zhong Zhiqi beside him, Zhong Zhiqi did not react, and buried his head in eating. Tang Qin was an outsider, but he also felt the undercurrent surging on the surface of peace.
After eating, everyone moved from the dining room to the living room to drink tea.
Zhong Qiaoyun mentioned the topic just now, "Zhiyan, the group has a foundation, and poverty alleviation and education projects are being done, if you are interested in this aspect, simply come back to manage the foundation." ”
"I can't. Zhong Zhiyan's face was embarrassed, and he looked at Zhong Zhiqi, "I don't have the ability to do that." ”
"Learn ......"
Before Zhong Qiaoyun's words were finished, Zhong Zhiqi, who had been silent all night, suddenly broke out. He walked over and grabbed Zhong Zhiyan by the collar, "If you don't have the ability, you can go farther." ”
Zhong Zhiqi's action was too sudden, and everyone present was stunned.
"Zhong Zhiyan, how long are you going to act? I'm tired of watching. Zhong Zhiqi said that he was going to swing his fist.
Tang Qin reacted first and took Zhong Zhiqi's hand, "Zhiqi." ”
"You let go of me. Zhong Zhiqi said loudly to Tang Qin.
Of course Tang Qin didn't let go, Zhong Zhiqi's fist couldn't go down, he stared at Zhong Zhiyan fiercely, "Zhong Zhiyan, let me tell you, even if ten of you add up, it's just a pile of mud." ”
"Don't say it. ”
After Zhong Qiaoyun finished speaking, he rushed over and gave Zhong Zhiqi a loud slap. Zhong Zhiqi was stunned, and subconsciously let go of Zhong Zhiyan. Zhong Zhiqi took a look at Zhong Qiaoyun and reacted to rush towards Zhong Zhiyan again, but Tang Qin hurriedly hugged him.
Zhong Qiaoyun stood in front of Zhong Zhiyan, "What does it look like to mess around here!"
Of course, Zhong Zhiqi didn't have the courage to step forward again, so he could only tilt his head to the side and gasp.
"Alright, alright. Zhong Jian slapped the sofa and shouted.
". Zhong Qiaoyun was so angry that his eyes were about to erupt with fire.
Zhong Zhiqi's face was full of unconvinced, he glared at Zhong Zhiyan fiercely, turned around and left. Tang Qin hurriedly followed behind him, her gaze swept to Zhong Zhiyan, who was also looking at her.
After Zhong Zhiqi left, Zhong Jian said a few words to Zhong Qiaoyun and went back to the room to rest. Only Zhong Qiaoyun and Zhong Zhiyan were left in the living room.
"Auntie, you are discouraged. Zhong Zhiyan handed Zhong Qiaoyun a cup of tea.
Zhong Qiaoyun took a big sip and finally calmed down, she looked at Zhong Zhiyan, "Zhiyan, are you okay?"
Zhong Zhiyan immediately laughed, "It's okay, that's how brothers fight." ”
Zhong Qiaoyun sighed heavily, "Zhiqi is getting more and more nonsense now, your grandfather is right, I am used to it." ”
"Zhiqi is so capable, it's normal for him to look down on me. Zhong Zhiyan said.
Zhong Qiaoyun rubbed his temples and frowned, "Zhiqi has always been brought by me alone, and there may always be something missing." ”
When the strong woman Zhong Qiaoyun said such things, Zhong Zhiyan was surprised, "Auntie, Zhiqi is already very good." ”
Zhong Qiaoyun looked at Zhong Zhiyan and smiled, "I shouldn't have told you this, but we are a family......"
"I understand," Zhong Zhiyan took over, "Actually, if it were me, a brother would feel uncomfortable when he suddenly appeared." ”
Zhong Qiaoyun continued to laugh, "Zhiyan, you are really an elder brother, and you have the capacity to tolerate people. ”
Listening to Zhong Qiaoyun's praise, Zhong Zhiyan bowed his head embarrassedly.
Zhong Qiaoyun put away his smile and watched Zhong Zhiyan gradually become distracted, "You really look like a brother." ”
Zhong Zhiyan looked up at Zhong Qiaoyun, his eyes were full of confusion, he had not seen his biological father.
After looking at it for a while, Zhong Qiaoyun came back to his senses, "You don't have to worry about it, if you have anything to come to me in the future." ”
Zhong Zhiyan nodded silently.
Zhong Zhiqi drove home, and Tang Qin saw that he was in a bad mood and followed him upstairs. As soon as he got home, Zhong Zhiqi opened a bottle of wine and took a big sip.
"Align ......"
As soon as Tang Qin wanted to stop him, Zhong Zhiqi said: "Zhong Zhiyan is acting, this person is extremely insidious. ”
Zhong Zhiqi sat on the sofa and continued to drink, and Tang Qin silently accompanied him. After drinking too much, Zhong Zhiqi suddenly touched his cheek.
"My mom actually beat me up because of this guy. Zhong Zhiqi laughed self-deprecatingly.
Tang Qin thought that Zhong Zhiqi must not have suffered such grievances, "Auntie is anxious for a while. ”
Zhong Zhiqi sighed, "Since Zhong Zhiyan appeared, everything has changed, even my mother's mind has changed. She only thinks about the company's situation now, and doesn't care about my feelings at all. ”
Zhong Zhiqi's eyes were red, and Tang Qin took his wine glass, "Don't drink, you're drunk." ”
Zhong Zhiqi looked at Tang Qin, "I'm not drunk." Originally, we could all be free, but we were all ruined by Zhong Zhiyan. ”
Tang Qin was slightly stunned, if it weren't for Zhong Zhiyan's threat, Zhong Qiaoyun might have relented and sided with Zhong Zhiqi and let him be with Song Shiyun.
"Tang Qin, what should I do? What should I do now?" Zhong Zhiqi hugged his head in pain.
Tang Qin grabbed Zhong Zhiqi's shoulders and let him face him.
She looked him in the eye and said, "Patience and wait." ”
