23 Dinner with a locomotive
"I'm sorry ......"
......
For a while, Xi Ziyan didn't know what to say, he seemed to have touched the taboo of Zong Zhengjingnuan.
It felt like a long time before I heard her smile softly, "...... It's okay, it was a long time ago, so long ago that I almost forgot about it. But you seem curious about where I came from? β
The casual but determined tone made Xi Ziyan unable to deny it, but he didn't know what to say.
"Brother Xi, sometimes it's not a good thing to be too curious. Still, you'll be glad you didn't find anything. Have you ever heard of the British Patriarchal Family? I'm from there. β
I had speculated before, but I didn't want it to be really the Zongzheng family?! One of the four major European families, the Chinese family that came to Europe a hundred years ago came from behind, beating the other three European clans and becoming the head of the four major families. rarely appears in the public eye on weekdays, extremely low-key and secretive.
"My family doesn't like people to snoop on in private. In the future, if Brother Xi wants to know anything, he can come and ask me, and I will try my best to answer. β
Zong Zhengjing's warm directness made Xi Ziyan, who was used to seeing modest and generous, gentle and delicate women, a little embarrassed.
Nothing to say all the way to the restaurant.
When Zong Zhengjing Nuan sat down, she found that this was a private kitchen, hidden in a deep alley several blocks away from the city center, with exquisite decoration and elegant environment. Of course, there are some that are not easy to find.
glanced at Xi Ziyan, "Brother Xi, did you get angry just now?" Although I said that directly, it was also for your own good. In the past, someone investigated the affairs of our family, and the movement was too loud, which alarmed the head of the family, and finally ...... "As he spoke, he turned the rose ring on his right index finger as if unintentionally.
On the other side, Yunmo, who had been riding a motorcycle from a distance, heard the female voice from the other end of the Bluetooth headset, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
He also knew about that incident, and in the end it was nothing, that person just found a little fur + refined gossip, and later in *, I heard that it was bad luck and strong support, and he was in a hurry, and he died on the spot after a cerebral hemorrhage, and he died purely by accident.
Distracted, there was a crisp ticking sound in the headphones for about six seconds, and he immediately quickly pressed the silver glittering precision button on the headphones.
It was Jing Nuan who was making sure he had found her location. This set of equipment is specially developed for the protection of Jing Nuan, many of her jewelry are international brands have been remodeled after being taken back, the appearance seems to be unchanged, but in fact, it is powerful, and the sense of science and technology is advanced. On the other side, Zong Zheng Jingnuan felt the slight vibration of the index finger ring, and her heart, which was still a little uneasy, instantly relaxed.
"No, I just wanted to know more about SK Group before, but I didn't expect that there were too many mysteries about Jingnuan to look up to. β
He used to be like this, he avoided it, he was calm, and he never quibbled.
"It's not that exaggerated, I still go out a lot, party dinners, but mostly when I'm in Europe. "The implication is that you are not good enough to check me.
"I'm to blame for this. Come, take a look at the menu, what do you like to eat?"
"Okay, but I don't know how to order. "Well, this seems a bit tinoying. This one is not good, it is estimated to be a little spicy...... That's it, I'll order this, the chicken broth is boiled and dried shreds, it looks good. If it weren't for the quiet in the private room, Xi Ziyan would almost have wondered if there was something wrong with his hearing. She flipped through the menu and whispered a very small thought, such a look, such a habit, he had only seen it in one person.
By the time he reacted, she had already quickly handed back the menu, "Brother Xi, you should order it! β
"Then do you have any taboos? β
"Nope. As long as it's not spicy. β
Sure enough, it's still different. That person doesn't eat green onions or duck meat, and he loves chili peppers very much, no spicy or happy.
"It's not spicy, the flavor of Su cuisine is fresh, and the pursuit of the original taste. The taste is a little lighter. β
"It's good, it's suitable for me as a foreigner, isn't it?"
............
At the dinner table, the two chatted about the customs of City A and the United Kingdom. The two people with different minds can also talk happily.
The entrance to the restaurant.
"If you don't like it, I'll treat you to Western food next time. β
"Wonderful dinner! β
"It's a little late, are you going back to Luoyang Road? β
"No need, someone is coming to pick me up. Go first! He'll be there right away. β
The roar of locomotives rang out from far and near under the dimly lit street lamps. Soon, a Harley-Davidson pulled up in front of the two men, and the man took off his helmet and greeted him with a chin on his chin. Xi Ziyan quickly recognized that this was the man who had been following Zong Zhengjing Nuan on the day of Rancho Santa Fe's night banquet.
"Here he comes. So, good night! Brother Xi. β
Somehow, seeing him beside Zong Zhengjingnuan, the plain Xi Ziyan felt very uncomfortable in his heart, a little angry and sullen. "Mr. Yun's locomotive, Jing Nuan's dress up today is probably not very convenient! I'll send you back." β
skillfully took off her high heels and carried them in her hands, letting Yunmo bring another slightly smaller helmet for her, and sat sideways behind Yunmo. "No, I do it a lot. See you soonοΌβ
β ...... Well...... Bye!β The moment he watched her get into the car and hold Yunmo's coat, he almost reached out to grab her.
He didn't like the usual sense of casualness with her and Yunmo.
That feeling, as if something that belongs to me was snatched away by someone else, and the heart is like not cutting a big hole in an instant. How could this be, she, obviously, was not his! He and she had only known each other for a short time.
