Chapter 11: The Birthday Banquet of the Small Universe (2)
The car drove all the way at a slow speed, sitting in the spacious and luxurious interior space, looking at the noisy flow of people and vehicles in Haicheng outside in the evening, and the colorful lights, Lin Aiwei's heart was empty, without a trace of thought, just subconsciously hugged Zhao Zeyu who was sitting next to her gently in her arms.
About an hour and a half later, the car entered the most luxurious villa area in Haicheng ~ Yipin Tangcheng Mansion, the road in the entire villa area is spacious and quiet, except for the rows of neat and scattered private mansions hidden in the lush green garden, quiet like a deep forest in the valley.
The car finally stopped slowly in front of a mansion, the driver opened the door, made a respectful and polite gesture of asking for hands, and waited until Lin Aiwei took Zhao Zeyu out of the car, the driver took the schoolbag in Lin Aiwei's hand without saying a word, started the car, and drove to the garage.
Lin Aiwei stood in front of the mansion and went around in a big circle, thinking that today was an eye-opener, where is this place for ordinary people to live at home, this is simply a small castle or manor in a fairy tale.
The mansion is a European style, covers an area of about 1000 square meters, the location of the mansion is in the middle, the construction area is not less than 500 square meters, all around is evergreen, the lush and tall trees that can not be named enclose the mansion inside, the lawn, garden, pond, swimming pool, pavilions and pavilions before and after the mansion, all connected together with the pebble path winding and winding, the two sides of the path are covered with delicate trees and bright flowers of various colors, it is really a perfect combination of Chinese and Western, a paradise in the downtown area.
Entering the mansion, the simple and spacious hall, the luxurious and shining crystal chandeliers, the smooth marble floor, and the sculptures and paintings, mahogany sofas, etc., Lin Aiwei's eyes didn't have time to accept these new things. Zhao Zeyu shouted to the right: "Aunt Chen, Aunt Chen, is my dad back, I sat in the car with Teacher Lin for a long time, and I was hungry." ”
A small door on the right opened, and an aunt about forty, wearing a white chef's hat, short hair, and a white apron, walked over with a plate of dried fruit snacks in her hand, and said softly: "Young Master Zeyu, Mr. will be back in five minutes, today is your birthday, the dinner party is simple and warm according to your requirements, and it has been sealed and kept warm, and the meal can be opened at any time." After speaking, he bowed down and put the plate in front of Zhao Zeyu.
Zhao Zeyu didn't make a move, and pulled Lin Aiwei to the restaurant with the door open on the right.
Lin Aiwei was stunned to see the largest private dining room in her life, a long oval marble dining table, covered with beige tablecloth, two at two ends, four on each side, a total of ten white high-backed chairs, hanging on which shining crystal lamps, on the dining table are placed a yurt-like silver disc, candles and flowers, unnamed red wine and champagne, and more strangely, there is a small square white table next to the dining table, three chairs, three sets of utensils, and a delicate and cute little cake on it.
Seeing all this, Zhao Zeyu nodded with satisfaction and said to Lin Aiwei: "Teacher Lin, it's just right for us to come back, my dad should have already gone downstairs, let's sit down first." After speaking, he pulled Lin Aiwei to sit on the chair supporting the small table, looked at the cake by herself, made all kinds of gluttony, and couldn't help but express her expression.
Lin Aiwei also sat down, touched Zhao Zeyu's little head, and said gently: "Little Universe, today is your birthday, you have made so many dishes, is it just the three of us, I thought it was a bunch of guests, a gorgeous and lively party!"
Zhao Zeyu said with a smile: "Teacher Lin, in fact, I also like to be lively, I like a lot of children to come to me to play, in addition to the birthday of a year, the rest of the children will only wait for the New Year to come as guests, but today is different, today only invite you one, plus my father, three people, what is the theme, simple and warm, yes, it is simple and warm!"
"But the teacher didn't even buy a gift today, isn't it a bit rude? ”
"Teacher Lin, you can come is the biggest gift, the small universe lacks nothing, just lacks the teacher's care, just like in the car just now, gently hugging, wow, it's a great warmth. ”
Lin Aiwei was very happy to hear this, and silently praised her students' super high emotional intelligence!
After a while, a rhythm was in unison, and the sound of soothing and powerful footsteps came down the marble floor.
When Zhao Zeyu heard this, he hurriedly put away his laughter, sat down on the chair seriously, and took out a world famous book from the table drawer and read it seriously.
Lin Aiwei was stunned again, thinking, is this sure to be a third-grade elementary school student, why is this acting skill to the point of being superb.
When Lin Aiwei was a little overwhelmed, a thirty-eight or nineteen-year-old half-young man wearing a black simple windbreaker and gold-wire glasses, and the whole person felt simple and capable, he smiled gracefully and elegantly at Lin Aiwei, and then looked at Zhao Zeyu and nodded.
"Dad, good evening," Zhao Zeyu saw his father nodding and hurriedly greeted, and his face also returned to the child's evil smile, and said: "Dad, this is my homeroom teacher, Mr. Lin, it's inconvenient for me to call my name, you also know, in order to ensure politeness, you better ask again." ”
Then he turned his head to Lin Aiwei, who was a little confused, and said, "Mr. Lin, this is my father, a famous investment businessman, Zhao Liuyang. ”
Lin Aiwei was really confused, thinking to herself what kind of introduction this was made, this is clearly the introducer.
"Hello Mr. Zhao. Lin Aiwei stood up and said hello.
"Hello Miss Lin. ”
The two opened their mouths at the same time under the rhythm of Zhao Zeyu, Lin Aiwei instantly blushed and embarrassed, Zhao Liuyang accepted the remaining words, and looked at the teacher who recited the scriptures every day with a smile and a calm.
Lin Aiwei saw that Zhao Liuyang was a little distracted, her face turned even redder, and she hurriedly continued what she said just now, saying: "Mr. Zhao Liuyang, hello, I am the head teacher of the small universe, Lin Aiwei, I was invited by his birthday today, and I took the liberty to disturb you." ”
Zhao Liuyang smiled gently, walked over and pulled out a chair for Lin Aiwei, and said, "Miss Lin, it is the happiest thing for me to be here this year, thank you for coming, please take a seat." ”
Lin Aiwei sat down unconsciously, with a restrained look on her face.
Zhao Zeyu suddenly laughed out loud and said to them: "Dad, it's okay, let's stop pretending to be a wealthy family, have you forgotten today's theme, simple and warm." ”
Zhao Liuyang took off his windbreaker and said with a chuckle: "That's right." ”
At this time, Aunt Chen walked in and said, "Sir, do you need me to help you open the meal?"
Zhao Liuyang brushed his wrinkled horse clip, pulled the collar of his shirt, glanced at the tie again, and replied to Aunt Chen gently: "No need, let's sit at a small table today, according to the custom, I'll come by myself." ”
Aunt Chen bent down and bowed, turned around and took the door out.
Zhao Zeyu saw that there were no more idle people waiting for him, and hurriedly said: "Okay, Dad, there will be no more outsiders coming in, restore your original appearance, hurry up and make the cake and eat." ”
Zhao Liuyang immediately saluted the two of them solemnly and said, "Receive the signal of the small universe and immediately execute the order." ”
Lin Aiwei was stunned again, wondering if I was dreaming, or if I was in the wrong place.
After a while, the cake was lit with candles, Zhao Liuyang extinguished the main light next to the light switch, and under the dim light candle, the atmosphere came out at once!
Zhao Zeyu waited for this moment, held his little hand and silently recited the wish to the candle three times, and then blew out the candle in one go!
The main light was turned on, and Zhao Liuyang hurriedly sat down in his seat, took down the candle, and cut the cake.
Lin Aiwei felt that she could finally interject, so she asked with a smile: "Little Universe, I wish you a happy birthday!" Can you tell the teacher what you promised just now?"
Zhao Zeyu looked embarrassed, turned his head to consult his father, and said, "Dad, the teacher asked me about my birthday wishes, should I say it or not." ”
Zhao Liuyang said calmly and seriously: "Son, everything must be said to others, since the teacher asked, you can't go against your will, tell the truth." ”
Zhao Zeyu nodded, and said to Lin Aiwei very seriously: "Teacher, my wish just now is that I hope the teacher can be my mother and give me a few younger brothers and sisters." ”
Lin Aiwei's face turned red again, her eyes fell to the ground, and she thought, now the child, alas, although she was prepared, she didn't expect to ask casually and directly advance the plot.
Lin Aiwei was stunned for only a few seconds, her face returned to normal, and she said to Zhao Zeyu with a smile: "It turns out that Xiaoyu likes people like teachers to be mothers, well, thank you Xiaoyu, teachers are very honored." ”
When Zhao Liuyang heard Lin Aiwei's answer, he felt intimate and sincere, smiled at his son with satisfaction, handed his son a piece of cut cake, and handed Lin Aiwei a piece, and said, "Miss Lin, let you laugh, don't care about children." He turned his head again: "Son, you have too many places to learn like Teacher Lin, the answer just now is really exquisite, polite and elegant without losing the connotation, I begin to recognize your evaluation of Teacher Lin, absolutely a lady, a gentleman." After speaking, Zhao Zeyu turned around, and the two high-fived tacitly.
After clapping his hands, Zhao Zeyu came out with an old-fashioned sentence and said, "Dad, don't be pretentious, I have always hoped to learn from the teacher, you, not necessarily." ”
Zhao Liuyang was stunned for a moment, swallowed and spit, snorted, and said, "What, eat the cake first, eat the cake first!"
Lin Aiwei also generously took the cake and took a bite herself, only to feel that it was soft and smooth, sweet and delicious.
"So Dad, since everything has been said about this, how should today's peach blossom birthday banquet continue and what rhythm should be used. ”
"Be honest, yes, that's a good word, although it's difficult, but as I often say to you, I can be steady and wise when working outside, polite and gentle, and I can also be cruel and fierce in the mall, and fight with intrigue, but in front of my family, I must be honest and my own nature, so that people have a bottom line and are not easy to get lost. ”
"Okay, I won't call you Miss Lin, from now on, call Teacher Lin, yes, it feels much kinder. ”
"Dad, you should have been like this a long time ago, you put so much equipment on your body every day, and you are tired to death. ”
"Teacher Lin, in fact, you should know the note I wrote, my father and I have calculated, Teacher Dalin will definitely tell you, and I must be on my birthday to ask the teacher to come, come or not, I am happy, because this is the first time in my life to pursue a mother who I trust and are attached to. ”
This wave after wave is incredible, Lin Aiwei had to be stunned again, and secretly screamed in her heart, is my hidden character also soft-hearted, how to follow this rhythm, oh my God!
Zhao Liuyang saw that Lin Aiwei's face was normal, and felt that it was time to change the topic, so he smiled at the two and said: "Let's eat first, talk while eating, son, how about your favorite chicken wings, how about Dad bring it to you first, and, Mr. Lin, what do you like to eat." ”
Lin Aiwei smiled and said: "It's okay, it's ordinary, it's not taboo." ”
Zhao Liuyang had no choice but to go to the big dining table with a cigarette, find a plate labeled with chicken wings, open the lid, and a strong aroma of honey and honey charcoal roast came out, Zhao Liuyang picked up the plate, and took a plate of uncovered salad in the other hand, and hurriedly walked over, there was still a little gentleman's appearance.
The cake was moved to the small corner on Zhao Zeyu's right hand, and the steaming and fragrant chicken wings tickled the taste buds of the three of them, and Zhao Liuyang sandwiched the two largest pieces for his son and Lin Aiwei respectively, and he didn't bring gloves with him, and he gnawed on it.
Lin Aiwei thought that it was strange enough to know this wonderful father and son, but her heart relaxed, and she was no longer restrained, she took out the amount of food she usually should have, and attacked the dishes that were served one by one.
After eating the four dishes, Zhao Liuyang looked at the dozen or so unopened plates on the big table, frowned, and said, "What, it seems that there are still many dishes, let's pause for a while, drink some wine to moisten our throats, digest for a while, and then eat." ”
Zhao Zeyu stuffed a shrimp head in his mouth, so he had to raise his hand to vote in agreement, Lin Aiwei had almost eaten, and drank half a glass of champagne that had been poured a long time ago.
Zhao Liuyang took the red wine and asked: "Does Mr. Lin drink this red wine, it seems to be called Rafipol, I have forgotten it for a few years, do you want to taste a small glass." ”
Lin Aiwei was about to excuse herself, Zhao Zeyu wiped her mouth with a piece of paper, pouted and grinned and said: "Dad, you are not in the right state today, Mr. Lin can drink half a glass of champagne to already mean that today's dinner environment is very relaxed, when you just proposed to drink, I observed that the teacher frowned, obviously the teacher never drinks, not reluctantly." ”
Zhao Liuyang slapped his head, and complained to himself: "Oh, I haven't even drunk a sip of wine, and I'm overdressing!"
"Son, you reminded you well, then I'll drink champagne too. ”
Lin Aiwei said casually: "You still drink the red bar according to your heart, otherwise the red wine has already been opened, and the taste will run away!"
"Confidant, confidant, Mr. Lin, how do you know that I am a person who respects my heart and is very thrifty. ”
"I don't know, just tell me casually. ”
Zhao Zeyu clapped his little hands and said happily: "Dad, Dad, I finally met someone who doesn't pat your ass, relieved, relieved!"
Zhao Liuyang also touched his head embarrassedly and happily, "I am very frustrated by such a performance, but son, my father will still work hard." ”
When Lin Aiwei heard that she felt that someone was swearing sovereignty, she hurriedly blushed and said embarrassedly: "Two gentlemen, don't get excited, since we talked frankly today, then I shouldn't be absent, I am also a mess of feelings at the moment, how about listening to me and then making a decision?"
Zhao Liuyang and Zhao Zeyu seemed to have a hidden emotion when they heard it, and smiled bitterly, saying that if they were a step too late, the worst result was about to come.
The two heads had to lean their faces together, supporting their chins with both hands, waiting for the following.
Lin Aiwei saw that she really wanted to be angry or laugh, and she really couldn't figure it out, so she had to clear her throat, cough, and say: " I'll tell you the truth, in fact, I don't hate your pair of weird, but I admire it very much, small universe, although you are a single-parent family, but you have a father who loves you, and is smart and wise, a businessman who adheres to the bottom line of morality, in this society, it is really rare, if you follow your script, it won't be long after, the original I may have disarmed and surrendered, but, you are indeed a step late, just half a month ago, I liked a man, I didn't dare to chase him, and just two days ago, I promised another man to chase me, I didn't dare to refuse him, you said, you came so late, what do you want me to do。 ”
Zhao Zeyu's eyes darkened after hearing this, and he looked at his father complainingly, the meaning is obvious, it's all your fault, you are busy every day, and you have to wait until your birthday to show your face, this is the end.
Zhao Liuyang did feel a pity in his heart, and there was some inexplicable slight pain, but he asked calmly on the surface: "What kind of man is that makes Teacher Lin so sad." ”
Zhao Zeyu said with a dull gaze: "Dad, you don't have a chance, it must be Teacher Dalin, the mental health mentor." ”
Zhao Liuyang nodded, smiled and said, "That Mr. Lincoln is indeed a wonderful person, I am not wronged if I lose to him." ”
"But I'm wronged, when I found out that I liked him, he had taken the initiative to tell me before, he had two figures in his heart, one died, in his heart, one was lost, and he couldn't find it for the time being, after leaving school, he liked someone for the first time, and he was so entangled, I was wronged. ”
Zhao Zeyu listened, hope surfaced again, Zhao Liuyang also came to the spirit when he heard it, and hurriedly asked while the iron was hot: "Then who did you promise to pursue you, I, Zhao Liuyang, dare not be called a gentleman, but I am definitely a qualified substitute." ”
Zhao Zeyu shouted in his heart: "Dad, come on." ”
Lin Aiwei looked at the father and son with sincere faces, sighed in her heart, and whispered: "If I also want to be Lincoln's replacement, are you still willing to be a gentleman?"
Zhao Zeyu's eyes were black again, and he was reluctant to get up while lying on the table.
Zhao Liuyang laughed and said, "Today is really happy, it is rare to meet a fellow practitioner with such a pure and frank heart, Mr. Lin, I also admire you." After speaking, he looked at Lin Aiwei and waited for the following.
Lin Aiwei smiled and thought: This guy is also drunk, and he doesn't forget to bring himself with him, his skin is thick enough, and it is difficult.
Lin Aiwei lowered her head and thought for a while, and said: "The person I promised to pursue me, I don't know if you know him, his father is the president of Brilliant Entertainment, and he himself is an ordinary person living in a tube building, he may have some psychological problems, but he is quite decent." ”
Zhao Liuyang asked suspiciously: "President Leng, I have naturally heard and met, and we have cooperated, but I haven't heard that he has a son, and his family history is also very legendary. ”
Lin Aiwei responded with a wry smile: "Yes, who can see through his heart on the surface of the scenery, oops, I suddenly remembered that Gao Lengfeng said that he was coming to me today, I don't have his contact information, if he sees me leaving in your car, it's a little bad." ”
"This can't be considered bad, if you explain it clearly, it can't dissolve this matter, but it's a good thing, I'm afraid, oh, by the way, others criticize, shouldn't, shouldn't!" Zhao Liuyang felt that his mentality was a little unbalanced today, and quickly patted his mouth with his hand.
"Okay, let's continue to eat!" Zhao Liuyang felt that he had lost the opportunity, and if he continued to chat, the father and son were afraid that they would not be happy, so they quickly changed the topic!
Lin Aiwei took out her mobile phone and glanced at it, it was past seven o'clock, so she took a white towel and elegantly wiped her rosy lips and delicate white hands, and said to Zhao Liuyang, who was about to continue serving: "Little Universe, Mr. Lin is full, let's do it today, come and hug one, I wish Xiao Universe a happy birthday." ”
As soon as Zhao Zeyu heard that he had to hug him, he immediately stood up and threw himself into Lin Aiwei's arms, feeling sad and unbearable, and tears fell down his eyes.
Zhao Liuyang didn't take the plate anymore, looking at his sad and crying son, he couldn't do anything, and his heart was also lost one after another.
Lin Aiwei had no choice but to hug and caress Zhao Zeyu's back easily, just like her mother touched herself when she was a child, gently, gently.
After coming over for a while, Zhao Zeyu collected his tears, raised his head and said to Lin Aiwei: "Teacher Lin, there are still a lot of dishes, why don't you bring a few back and give them to Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin." ”
Lin Aiwei knew that even if she couldn't be Zhao Zeyu's mother, she would recognize this mother in her heart.
"Then bring the best dish, your cooking skills are really good, after eating for a long time, I'm afraid it will be addictive." ”
Zhao Zeyu laughed happily at this time, Zhao Liuyang looked around the table, and muttered in his mouth: "Foie gras, foie gras is not good, too greasy, not good for the elderly, matsutake mushroom, no, too vegetarian, salmon, mother's egg, raw, steak, no, too tender, I'm afraid I can't eat it, oops, by the way, Sister Chen, Sister Chen, come here." ”
The door of the restaurant opened, and Aunt Chen responded respectfully, "Sir, please command." ”
"Please find the best tableware for that pot of cordyceps bird's nest soup and pack it, and I'll send it to Mr. Lin to take away later." ”
Aunt Chen was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said with a smile: "Okay sir, get ready immediately." After saying that, he went out to run errands happily.
Lin Aiwei wondered and asked, "That Aunt Chen, is it necessary to be so happy!"
Zhao Zeyu drooped his head and said listlessly: "I think that my family will have a hostess in the future, can you not be happy!"
Lin Aiwei's "forehead" sounded, full of black lines!
After a while, Aunt Chen came in with a small golden pot, packed it in front of Zhao Liuyang with the incubator, and stood at the door waiting, Zhao Liuyang recovered the appearance of entering the door, holding Zhao Zeyu with one hand and taking the incubator with the other, Lin Aiwei also packed up and went out with them.
Lin Aiwei and the others went downstairs, waited for a while, Zhao Liuyang drove the Bentley over, Zhao Zeyu had to do his homework, and Aunt Chen brought it up.
There were only two people in the car along the way, Zhao Liuyang adjusted the temperature and humidity of the car, and opened a classical light music, which spread out softly in the car space.
Lin Aiwei closed her eyes, her mood swayed with the music, and she forgot all her troubles for the time being.
