Chapter 55 There is no red face in the heart
Cui Xiuying's foot injury is not serious, and even the door to enter the infirmary is the result of some fuss.
Spray some potion and put a bandage on it, and you'll be half better.
Accompanying Cui Xiuying in the infirmary is her own sister, the sister Cui Xiuzhen who carefully prepared an evening dress for Cui Xiuying and is ready to find out.
Cui Xiuzhen can't afford to think about it too much, she knows very well what virtue her sister has, she has never seen Cui Xiuying be willing to participate in a banquet on this occasion, this time instead of resisting, but rather actively cooperating, once people are abnormal, the people around them will naturally think more.
Especially after witnessing what happened on the balcony just now, Cui Xiuzhen made a conclusion in her heart.
Spring has arrived, and the little girl thinks of spring.
"Who is that man?" Cui Xiuzhen looked at her sister and asked expectantly, "Anyway, I haven't seen it, so it must be someone from our circle, could it be a trainee of your company?"
Speaking of this, Cui Xiuzhen hurriedly shook her head: "It's not right, it's impossible for a little trainee to come here, it's not from the Seoul circle, and it's not Cui Xiuying I know, you tell me honestly, who is he?"
Cui Xiuying bent down and rubbed her ankles, giving her sister a blank look.
Since this woman entered the house, she didn't say a word of concern, but asked about Ji Mingzhen one after another.
"Don't be impatient. Cui Xiuzhen moved a chair and sat opposite Cui Xiuying, and said, "I did this just now because my parents told me, they have to follow grandpa outside to take care of you now, and you will feel good when you get home." ”
Cui Xiuying was convinced, and after spreading her hands, she said helplessly: "I don't know him." ”
"Are you stupid for me?" Choi so-jin was obviously dissatisfied with her sister for playing with her idiot.
Cui Xiuying looked at her sister, thinking that this excuse was indeed a bit too far-fetched, so she lowered her head again, and her short hair covered half of her cheeks, looking a little funny.
This kind of resistance is a sign of Cui Xiuying's consistent silence, and her teammates have long been able to see that Cui Xiuying in this state can't be provoked, but Cui Xiuzhen is not afraid, is it possible that her sister still dares to beat her sister?
Moreover, Cui Xiuying's current appearance has been fully interpreted by Cui Xiuzhen as shy.
"You tell me honestly, I, Cui Xiuzhen, seem to be the one who betrayed my own sister?" Cui Xiuzhen Chunchun taught her sister, "Who is that person?"
Cui Xiuying can't listen to this kind of thing now, as soon as she hears it, she remembers what Ji Mingzhen said to herself just now, she has never seen such a man, she was chatting and teasing with you with a smile one second, and the feeling of talking the next second, thanks to Cui Xiuying's straight waist, otherwise she would have been cowardly.
She was really afraid of the way Ji Mingzhen looked when she spoke just now.
That white face did not show any anger or dissatisfaction, but it expressed his feelings clearly.
It's an indescribable feeling, but it's uncomfortable.
"You always ask what that bastard does?" There was no one around, and of course Cui Xiuying could express her feelings, "If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to enter the infirmary, are you going to help me get revenge, if so, I'll tell you who he is." ”
Who would have thought that Cui Xiuzhen waved her hand violently and said unashamedly, "Don't you take revenge, after speaking, my sister immediately sprinkled the juice on his face." ”
When it came to this, Cui Xiuzhen thought to herself that she would be able to make some fierce information this time, so she looked at Cui Xiuying with anticipation, and urged vigorously: "Say, say, what is his name, what does he do, what does he do at home, how many brothers and sisters do he has, and I see that he is very familiar with the director of the prosperous dynasty, is it a brother?"
Cui Xiuying didn't speak, just lowered her head.
The sky was grunting, Cui Xiuzhen swore that she had never seen Cui Xiuying like this since she was a child, and she noticed something wrong when she just wanted to speak.
So she turned around, and there was a man standing in the doorway.
Cui Xiuzhen hurriedly stood up, a little embarrassed, just wanted to bow but felt inappropriate, after thinking about it, she stood there in a daze and said, "You're here." ”
This relatively intimate tone should be applied to people who know each other, and the ghost knows why Cui Xiuzhen said such things to Ji Mingzhe.
It's definitely the first time they've met, and Choi so-young can vouch for it with her legs.
Ji Mingzhen held the plate and juice, grinning at the corners of his mouth, but he heard everything Cui Xiuzhen said just now, so he hid the juice in his hand behind him and nodded slightly: "Hello." ”
Cui Xiuzhen took a few steps forward, looked at Ji Mingzhe, who was much taller than herself, and was very satisfied when she looked at it carefully, and said with great satisfaction: "Hello, I am Cui Xiuzhen, Xiuying's sister." ”
Ji Mingzhe took a step back and said with a smile: "My name is Ji Mingzhe." ”
"Ah, Mr. Ji. Cui Xiuzhen came over and said with a smile, "Come to visit Xiuying, sit down, let's talk." ”
Talk?
Ji Mingzhen couldn't think of anything to talk about with Cui Xiuzhen.
Cui Xiuying has been attacking her sister with her eyes for a long time, but Cui Xiuzhen is an opera dancer, and this cheek has been tempered by years of stage experience, so she doesn't care at all, and she diligently pulls Ji Mingzhen to sit down, looking at this handsome young man lovingly like an elder, and pulling up the routine.
"What does Mr. Ji do?"
Ji Mingzhe put the dinner plate and juice on the table next to him and replied, "I work in the embassy." ”
"Diplomat?" Choi so-jin's voice raised a height.
"Yes. Ji Mingzhen smiled and nodded.
"Gee, that's nice. Cui Xiuzhen looked at Ji Mingzhen again, and then asked in a low voice with some uncertainty, "Don't worry if I say this, Mr. Diplomat, I think you are at most about the same age as Xiuying, this is a diplomat?"
"I read early. Ji Mingzhen explained with a smile.
Cui Xiuying, who was on the side, was now very unaccustomed to Ji Mingzhe's stunned appearance, so she added: "Yes, I graduated earlier than others." ”
After saying that, she felt that something was wrong, as if she was saying good things about him?
Cui Xiuzhen's interest was completely hooked, and the diplomat was still a little genius: "Which school did Mr. Diplomat graduate from?"
South Korea pays attention to academic qualifications, a good university represents a good birth, and students from good schools will definitely benefit from the status of graduates of prestigious schools, so Choi so-jin will ask this kind of question.
There are only a few schools in Seoul that have related majors, and no matter which one you are, they are very good.
This time it was not Ji Mingzhe's turn to speak, Cui Xiuying now felt that compared to Ji Mingzhe, she didn't want to see her gossip sister, so she turned on the machine gun mode.
"He went to Cambridge after graduating from college at the age of eighteen, studied history and architecture, went to the London embassy after coming out, and then came to Seoul, by the way, he is Chinese, yes, you guessed right, he and the director of the prosperous dynasty are small, grew up with a bare ass, you still have any questions to ask immediately, and then go out!"
Without waiting for Cui Xiuzhen to come back to her senses, Cui Xiuying looked at Ji Mingzhe, looking like her mother was fighting with you today: "Did I say something wrong?"
"Uh, what. Ji Mingzhen smiled dryly, "Probably yes, but when I met Si Fu, we were already more than buttocks." ”
Cui Xiuying's stiff face was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help laughing, but she really couldn't laugh at this time, so she had to lower her head again and hold the sheet tightly.
After listening to Cui Xiuying and Ji Mingzhe's words, Cui Xiuzhen thought that she could report to her parents, young people, you have to be alone to promote your relationship, so Cui Xiuzhen stood up very understandingly, and said to Cui Xiuying: "Okay, I can rest assured that Mr. Diplomat is here to accompany me, you have a good rest, and I will come to pick you up and go home when it is over." ”
Ji Mingzhen stood up and said goodbye to Cui Xiuzhen: "You go slowly." ”
"You stay, Xiuying is more important. After saying that, Cui Xiuzhen squeezed her eyebrows at Cui Xiuying, and then left the infirmary quickly, and closed the door by the way.
Cui Xiuying and Ji Mingzhe were left in the small infirmary at this moment, Cui Xiuying looked at Ji Mingzhe and asked suspiciously, "What are you doing here?"
Ji Mingzhe handed over the juice and said with a smile: "I'm afraid you haven't eaten enough." ”
Cui Xiuying glanced at the dinner plate, looked a little strange, and then asked, "Just because of this?"
"I want to apologize too. Ji Mingzhen glanced at the bandage on Cui Xiuying's ankle and asked, "It's okay, right?"
Cui Xiuying came back to her senses and hurriedly put the quilt on her lap, she was wearing a short skirt today, and there was a good chance of walking away if she sat like this, and she was stared at her lower body by Ji Mingzhen for so long, Cui Xiuying thought to herself that this bastard probably did it on purpose, right?
Ji Mingzhen could even see Cui Xiuying's deepest plan tonight, not to mention the girl's careful thoughts, he picked up the plate indifferently, looked at Cui Xiuying and asked, "Do you eat steak?"
Cui Xiuying wanted to say that she didn't eat, but she really didn't eat enough, there were nine people in Girls' Generation, and no matter how much she ate, she and Lin Yun'er were the only two people, so she never taboo, looking at the high-quality steak that was still steaming slightly on the plate, she swallowed her saliva slightly, and didn't speak.
Ji Mingzhe smiled, picked up the knife and fork and began to cut the beef.
There are many catches in London, such as cutting steaks.
The steak was quickly cut, Ji Mingzhe held the plate in his hand, inserted a small piece with a fork and handed it to Cui Xiuying's mouth.
"What are you doing?" Cui Xiuying was taken aback by Ji Mingzhe's behavior.
Ji Mingzhe held the fork and said: "I don't have much experience in taking care of people, this is the elders in the family telling me to treat patients gently, it's best to let them do nothing, if you feel shy, then I don't feed you." ”
"Why should I be shy?" Cui Xiuying glanced at Ji Mingzhen and ate the steak.
After Cui Xiuying put the steak in her stomach, Ji Mingzhen took another piece of watermelon and handed it over, and Cui Xiuying ate it again.
Neither of them spoke, Cui Xiuying supported her body with her hands, and ate the food handed by Ji Mingzhen one bite at a time, just like a baby seal being fed in the zoo.
Looking at Ji Mingzhe, who was looking down to peel shrimp, the ankle pain was no longer so intense, and Cui Xiuying, who had already calmed down, pursed her lips, and finally whispered: "I'm sorry." ”
"Huh?" Ji Mingzhen raised his head.
"I said, I'm sorry. Cui Xiuying looked at Ji Mingzhe and said, "I admit that we were teasing Xiaoxian at the beginning, because she has never looked at a man of the same age, you are a young man who is praised by Xiaoxian, so we think it's funny, okay, I admit that I made the most trouble." ”
"Now I know you think this behavior is shameful, but I really didn't mean to. ”
"Not anymore, don't worry. ”
"It's not so strict. Ji Mingzhe handed the peeled prawns to Cui Xiuying, and then began to peel the second one, and said with a smile, "I didn't blame you, I'm really sorry I scared you, maybe my way of speaking is too extreme, I'm sorry." ”
Cui Xiuying swallowed the shrimp meat and tilted her head.
At this moment, the man who is peeling shrimp with his head down is very similar to the state when he helped Xu Xian solve the problem on the plane that day, whether it is peeling shrimp or doing high school math problems, it is the same thing for Ji Mingzhe.
Small things, very simple things.
But he was just as serious.
Because Ji Mingzhe didn't forget to wash his hands first even when he was helping Cui Xiuying peel shrimp.
Is it possible to achieve a good achievement at this age with this attitude?
Looking at Ji Mingzhe, Cui Xiuying swallowed the shrimp meat and asked curiously, "Are you afraid when you study and travel alone?"
"Afraid?"
"Aren't you afraid?"
Ji Mingzhen shook his head, thought about it and replied, "I'm not afraid, but occasionally I feel lonely." ”
As he spoke, he laughed: "I was not young when I went out, so I can take care of myself, but you and I heard that you went to Japan to make your debut when you were very young, and I admire you very much." ”
Cui Xiuying is a very bold girl, but it is also a joy to be praised, let alone praised by a person who graduated from college at the age of eighteen.
A piece of shrimp meat was stuffed into her mouth, and Cui Xiuying said again while eating: "You became a diplomat at such a young age, your family must be very proud of you, right?"
Choi so-young blinked and said, "You may not know that in Seoul, if there is a junior in the family with an official character in the profession, it is a great thing, a prosecutor, a judge and so on." ”
Ji Mingzhe wiped his oily fingers with wet wipes, shook his head and said, "They didn't think I did a good job." ”
"What?" Choi so-young was a little incredulous.
"It's true. Ji Mingzhen said with a smile, "I have understood since I was a child that many times others praise you and praise you not because of how good you are, but because of the elders in the family, it means that these words are not praising me, but for the family." ”
"But I don't know what they want me to become. ”
"Cambridge graduate, the youngest full-time diplomat, can't this make your family happy?" Cui Xiuying wanted to say if you were pretending to be forced, but looking at Ji Mingzhe's tone of voice, he didn't look modest at all.
He even has a slight inferiority complex?
It's not because of the inferiority complex that he brings, but the kind of atmosphere that others attach to him.
Cui Xiuying found that she couldn't understand Ji Mingzhe.
Looking at Cui Xiuying, who didn't speak, Ji Mingzhe said: "In my opinion, there is no question of whether you can do one thing well, but whether you can do it better, but in this way, there is no fun in doing anything, because it is easy to form a comparison, and competition is of course a good thing, you can improve yourself." ”
"But I don't like to argue with others. ”
"Because they can't compete with me. ”
Cui Xiuying carefully interpreted the meaning of Ji Mingzhe's words, and after probably understanding, she asked very curiously: "Since this is the case, then why don't you have a girlfriend?"
Why is this man like this? Which pot is not opened, which pot is mentioned!
Ji Mingzhe looked at Cui Xiuying sadly and angrily, thinking that the things he had just fed had gone into the dog's stomach, this girl looked very clever but couldn't speak.
It's really thanks to you that you have such good legs, otherwise the master would really not be serving.
Seeing Ji Mingzhe's speechless appearance, Cui Xiuying was greatly satisfied, and calmed down her excitement after laughing: "I'm not hurting you, it's just that I think there should be a lot of girls like you since childhood, could it be that Counselor Ji is also a bad boy who threw cockroaches into the pencil case of any girl he liked when he was a child, so he has always been single?"
Ji Mingzhen shook his head and replied very seriously: "I don't do that, because when I was a child, the girls in the class liked me. ”
"Really?"
"Well, it was true in elementary school. Ji Mingzhe explained with some embarrassment, "It's just that I started skipping grades after junior high school, so my classmates are much older than me, and they all treat me as a child." ”
"Aren't you a kid?" said Choi so-young.
"But I'm better than them. Ji Mingzhen said unwillingly, "If you are a classmate with me in the first year of high school, you have to call me senior in the second half of the semester." ”
"You're awesome, you're awesome. Cui Xiuying likes Ji Mingzhe's childish appearance very much, and now he is a handsome young man who is a living twenty-year-old, and the original twilight feeling is not good at all.
The atmosphere was a little better, Cui Xiuying looked at the empty dinner plate, wiped her mouth with the tissue handed by Ji Mingzhe, and said, "Then what kind of girl do you like?"
"I really don't know. Ji Mingzhen shook his head and said, "It seems to be very troublesome to find a partner." ”
"With someone you really like, you should be happy and happy all the time, how can it be troublesome?" Cui Xiuying was quite incomprehensible.
Ji Mingzhe pursed his lips, looked at Cui Xiuying and said: "I should be a very smart person, a smart person can see things very clearly, which is a good thing in many cases, but sometimes it is not." ”
"For example, Miss Xiuying said that she was looking for a partner. ”
"I don't know what it's like to be with the girl I like, but if it's as good as you say, I'll wait with the most devout attitude. ”
"Wait?" Cui Xiuying shook her head, "Fate sometimes needs to be fought for by yourself. ”
"I won't. ”
"Is there anything that Counselor Ji won't do?"
"You can't learn this kind of thing in a textbook. Ji Mingzhe said with a smile, "There are a lot of things I have to do, personal emotional issues, it's nothing if you don't think about it now." ”
"Do you think love is a burden?" asked Cui Xiuying suspiciously.
"Probably not. Ji Mingzhen thought for a while and said, "Because more often, I believe what Miss Xiuying said about the beautiful state when men and women get along." ”
Cui Xiuying felt that talking to Ji Mingzhen was really tiring, because he could understand what he said, but he couldn't understand it.
So she decided to ask one last question.
It's not that she likes Xiaoxian's brainless question, Cui Xiuying looked up at Ji Mingzhe, who had already stood up, and asked, "If one day, someone likes you, will you accept it?"
Ji Mingzhen held the plate and empty cup, and after being silent for a while, he said: "The people who are with me and the people around me have their own helplessness, which is much more terrifying and unacceptable than ordinary people, so they, including me, don't seem to be easy to get along with." ”
"Like me, you have to sacrifice a lot of things. ”
"And I can't necessarily sacrifice anything for her. Ji Mingzhe looked at Cui Xiuying and shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly, "Which girl was kicked in the head by a donkey, and she is willing to live like that with me?"
Cui Xiuying looked at Ji Mingzhen and didn't know what to say for a while.
He had so much to want.
But there is only no happiness of his own, and in this era, there are still such people, it is really terrible.
