Zhou An looked back at Zhou Jian, who was still wiping his tears.

"Big Brother ......"

Seeing Zhou An looking back at him, Zhou Jian shouted with red eyes.

Zhou An stretched out his hand to rub his hair, his eyes swept around, and he saw that there were people watching the excitement in the kitchen and the store, and the street vendors and pedestrians were also watching curiously.

"Don't cry! Go back to work! Let Zhang Shun pass you the food, you give me a lotus! Straighten my waist, don't show people jokes!"

As he spoke, Zhou An pulled Zhou Jian's arm and led him to the kitchen.

Seeing them come back, several cooks who were watching the excitement in the kitchen immediately returned to their respective posts.

Back in the kitchen, Zhou An instructed Zhang Shun to pass the dishes, so he served the pot again, Zhou Jian lowered his head and gave him a lotus, this was the peak period of the customers in their store, and the kitchen was getting busier and busier.

Zhou An cooked, Zhou Jian played lotus, and the brothers were so busy that they didn't have time for Zhou Jian to immerse themselves in sad emotions.

This busy time is more than three hours.

When the kitchen was finally free, Zhou An looked at Zhou Jian's expression again, where was there still a sad look on his face?

"Okay?"

Zhou An asked him.

Zhou Jian smiled bitterly, "Well, big brother, I'm fine, you don't have to worry!"

Zhou An stared at him for a few seconds, nodded and walked past him, "Follow me!"

Zhou Jian wondered where to take him, but in the past year, he had become accustomed to listening to Zhou An's orders, so although he was puzzled at this time, he still immediately followed Zhou An.

Zhou An took him to the office on the second floor.

Before going upstairs, when passing by the bar, Zhou An hesitated slightly, and took a bottle of Coke from the wine display cabinet next to the bar and took it with him.

2nd floor office.

casually put the Coke he had just held on the edge of the desk, Zhou An bypassed the desk, turned around and sat in the boss's chair, and when he sat down, he pressed his right hand and motioned for Zhou Jian to sit too.

Although Zhou Jian no longer shed tears at this time, after Li Yuezhi's trouble, his mood was still not high at this time.

"Drink!

Zhou An gestured with his chin to the Coke he had just placed on the edge of his desk.

"Oh, thank you, big brother!"

Zhou Jian sighed, took the bottle of Coke, unscrewed it and drank it twice, and when he put down the bottle, he suddenly burped twice.

Zhou An looked at him and saw that Zhou Jian was a little uncomfortable, "Big brother, what are you asking me to do upstairs?"

Zhou An didn't answer him immediately, frowned, lit a cigarette, and smoked silently for several puffs before suddenly saying, "Xiaojian! I know that you are bitter in your heart, and when you meet such parents, you must have more bitterness in your heart than I have seen!"

After a pause, he looked at Zhou Jian, "What I want to tell you is: none of us can choose our own origins and choose our parents!"

I'm in a slightly better situation than you, but my life is not bad compared to those who were born with a golden key! In the first half of last year, my family was still poor, you know that. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou An paused again.

Taking another puff of cigarette and spitting it out, he looked directly into Zhou Jian's blank eyes, and the corners of his left mouth rose slightly, "The truth I want to tell you is: since we have come to this world, the first thing we have to do is to accept the arrangement that fate has given us, and accept the reality we are facing now!"

No matter how cruel this reality is, we must accept it!

Because only by calmly accepting the cold reality in front of us can we feel the beauty of this world with a normal heart, and then embrace our future!

If you never accept the birth that fate has arranged for you, and if you are always immersed in the negative emotions of hating your own parents, then your life is really over! Do you understand what I said?"

After speaking, Zhou An looked at Zhou Jian.

Zhou Jian lowered his head slightly, unconsciously pinched the Coke bottle in his hand, and made the bottle gurgle.

After a few seconds, he raised his head, and suddenly showed a very bright smile to Zhou An, and his tone was also very relaxed, "Big brother, you are talking nonsense! Who said that my life is not good? Although my parents are unreliable, I still have you as a big brother! Big brother, you are so good to me, better than other people's own brothers, why is my life so bad? Hehe, do you say?"

Zhou An: "......"

Zhou An was speechless, because he suddenly felt that what Zhou Jian said was quite reasonable, but in this way, it seems that he is the only one who is really suffering?

Seeing that he was stunned, Zhou Jian got up with a smile and raised the Coke in his hand, "Big brother, thank you for the Coke, nothing else, I'll go down first!"

Zhou An pouted and waved his hand, signaling him to get out of here.

He was kind and well-intentioned and made a lot of rhetoric to comfort this kid, but after a long time, this kid was not very sad?

He was so depressed for a moment that he couldn't do it.

What Zhou An didn't know was that as soon as Zhou Jian walked out of the office and closed the office door casually, the relaxed smile on his face suddenly disappeared.

"Big Brother ......"

muttered softly, raised his hand to wipe away the tears that suddenly overflowed from the corners of his eyes, it turned out ...... He wasn't as relaxed as he had just been?

At the age of 15, he also began to learn to act.

And Zhou An didn't even see it.

Is it because he is talented, his acting skills are too good, or is it because Zhou An doesn't think about this aspect at all?

……

Time flickered and came to May 11.

When he woke up in the morning, Zhou An didn't realize that this day was different from usual, so he picked up the mobile phone on the bedside to check the time, and suddenly noticed that there was an unread text message in the text message box of his mobile phone.

clicked into the text message box casually and found that it was sent by Lin Jiaojiao.

Seeing that it was her, the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose.

I clicked on this text message casually, but I saw that the content of this text message was: "Happy birthday! I will go to the old place to wait for you tonight, you are busy with the work at hand, remember to come! There is a surprise for you!"

"Birthday?"

After reading her text message, Zhou An remembered that his birthday had arrived.

"Good!"

He replied to Lin Jiaojiao first, and then wondered what the surprise she said would be?

……

Towards noon, he received another call from his mother.

"Anzi, today is your birthday, do you remember? You are not at home, did you get up in the morning to give yourself a bowl of longevity noodles? ”

His mother really remembered his birthday, and in the morning, he received text messages and phone calls from Lin Jiaojiao and his mother, and Zhou An's heart was warm and moved.

"Well, Mom, don't worry! I've eaten it, and I've added three eggs!"

He lied, and he was afraid that if he didn't eat it, his mother would urge him to cook a bowl right away.

"Oh, just eat it! I'm going to ask your dad to kill a chicken for you, you should come back early in the evening and drink some chicken soup! Come back early and drink it, you should have time, right?"

"Ahh No matter how many chickens we have, we can't kill them so often!"

"Son, today is your birthday! In the past, your family was poor, and you could only add three eggs to your face on your birthday, but isn't it better for our family to live this year? Mom wants to kill a chicken for you to eat! Come back early in the evening to eat! I'll let your dad kill it." ”
