Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Undercurrent
In the noisy video game city, all kinds of music mixed together frantically hit the eardrums, Ji Zuhang and Tong Erfu had a lot of fun in front of the basketball machine, and the two had spent a morning in the video game city, playing almost all the projects.
Since the beginning of the winter vacation, Ji Zuhang has been running the Tong family very diligently, Sima Zhao's heart is undoubtedly revealed, the Tong family is happy to see it happen, only Tong Erfu himself is ignorant, and he still maintains the same state of mind as before.
The ball in his hand was thrown, the machine stopped abruptly, and the game time was over, and Tong Erfu clapped his hands with some unsatisfactory satisfaction.
When Ji Zuhang saw it, he asked gently, "Do you want me to exchange some game currency again?"
He knew that Tong Erfu didn't like to go to dull places, so every time he took Tong Erfu out, he would dig out his mind to find something that Tong Erfu was interested in, and he also took care of the people he wanted as before.
"Okay!" Tong Erfu smiled softly to show her gratitude, and habitually accepted Ji Zuhang's flattery.
Ji Zuhang turned around and went to the service desk to exchange for a large amount of game currency, until Tong Erfu was too tired to move, and he didn't use it up.
Walking out of the video game city, Ji Zuhang pressed the elevator button, and then looked at Tong Erfu for advice: "Where do you want to go for lunch?"
"Whatever, you have an idea!" Tong Erfu was still immersed in the atmosphere of the game, with an innocent smile on her face, and her white and tender cheeks were flushed with a light flush, like cherries after a spring rain, shining with a dewy luster.
"Good!" Ji Zuhang gently patted Tong Erfu's face, and his eyes were full of doting warmth.
Tong Erfu was in a trance for a while, and for some reason, this intimate action, which he had been accustomed to since he was a child, actually gave birth to a feeling of resistance in his heart.
The elevator fell directly into the underground parking lot, and when he got into the car, Tong Erfu just wanted to reach out and pull the seat belt, but Ji Zuhang's body had already leaned over.
"I'm coming!" The metallic voice was close to the ears, and the two of them were almost face to face, and the smell of light men's perfume rushed into the nose, and Tong Erfu's body involuntarily shrank back.
Ji Zuhang noticed Tong Erfu's subtle reaction, and after buckling the seat belt, he chuckled and said, "You don't like the smell of this perfume?" β
"Oh, no, it's good!" Tong Erfu lowered his head, hiding the panic that flashed in his eyes.
Ji Zuhang stared at Tong Erfu's side face for a while, and there was a flash of laughter in his deep eyes, and he started the car casually.
Next, the atmosphere in the car became silent and subtle, and Tong Erfu either lowered his head or looked out of the car, or did not look at Ji Zuhang.
Ji Zuhang looked ahead, drove calmly, occasionally glanced at Tong Erfu from the rearview mirror, and smiled in his heart, the ignorant girl is now an adult, and she knows that she is shy!
He was not in a hurry to show his heart to Tong Erfu, too sudden a confession might frighten her, and he would not rashly change the status quo until he was 100% sure, after all, she had always treated herself as an older brother since she was a child.
The car drove in the downtown area for a while, stopped in front of a high-end Italian restaurant with exquisite decoration, Ji Zuhang got out of the car and bypassed the car to open the door for Tong Erfu, and then stretched out his hand in front of Tong Erfu.
Tong Erfu looked up at Ji Zuhang slightly, hesitated for a second, and finally put his hand up.
Ji Zuhang smiled, held Tong Erfu's hand, and carefully escorted her out of the car.
As soon as they entered the restaurant, the well-trained waiter greeted them and brought the two to a quiet table, it turned out that Ji Zuhang had already booked a place.
The dΓ©cor of this restaurant is mainly romantic, the distance between the tables is slightly farther than in other restaurants, and even the waiters are strategically positioned so that they are neither too far nor too close.
Sitting down on the seat pulled by Ji Zuhang, Tong Erfu looked at the environment of the restaurant, embarrassed, this restaurant is designed for couples to date!
The waiter brought the menu and stood aside, so as not to interfere with the conversation.
Tong Erfu absentmindedly flipped through the menu, wondering why Ji Zuhang brought her to such a restaurant, although she could come to eat even if she was not a couple, but she always felt so awkward!
They turned over the menu for a while, probably Ji Zuhang was also the first time to come to this restaurant, and he didn't know the taste of the food, so he waved his hand to let the waiter come over.
"You might as well try our chef's couple's set menu, all the ingredients are flown in from abroad, absolutely fresh and safe. The waiter smiled and recommended the most expensive one.
"But we're not a couple!" said three black lines on Tong Erfu's forehead.
The waiter was stunned for a moment, and immediately said wittily: "You can also order a couple's package if you are not a couple, the main thing is that the ingredients of this package are really good, and it is cooked by our chef himself, and the taste is first-class, which will definitely satisfy you." β
Tong Erfu looked at Ji Zuhang on the other side and didn't speak, which means: You look at it and do it.
"Then I want this set meal!" Ji Zuhang quietly handed the menu to the waiter, ending the process of ordering.
The waiter walked away with the menu, and Tong Erfu lowered his voice and said, "Brother Ji, why do you want to book such a restaurant? β
"What's weird?" Ji Zuhang looked at Tong Erfu with a smile, "I think it's very good here, the style is good, and the service is also in place!"
He was wearing a dark green sweater with a mid-collar and white threads today, looking like a student who was still studying, and his eyes were shining with a brittle light, which made people wonder if there was a hidden Milky Way inside, or some other beautiful and distant thing.
Uh..... except for the atmosphere that doesn't match us, everything else is very good!
Tong Erfu took a sip of the water glass in front of him, and the corner of his eye flowed over the people nearby.
Ji Zuhang quietly looked at the person opposite, his eyes darkened, and he seemed to be thinking about something.
After a while, the appetizer came up, and playing video games all morning was quite physically demanding, and hunger prompted Tong Erfu to give up thinking about Ji Zuhang's intentions and completely shift his attention to the food in front of him.
Seeing that Tong Erfu's appetite seemed to be very good, a smile appeared on Ji Zuhang's face again, as long as she didn't resist these, then he was sure that he would slowly encroach on the depths of her heart, so that she would automatically understand his feelings for her, not just brother and sister.
"Hey, Brother Ji, why don't you eat it?" Tong Erfu cut off a piece of veal steak and put it in his mouth, seeing that Ji Zuhang was still thoughtful, he blinked his eyes and said, "Is the food not your appetite?" But I think it's not bad!"
"No, I was just thinking about a question!" Ji Zuhang's smile was intriguing.
"What's the problem?" asked Tong Erfu curiously.
Ji Zuhang smiled and said, "I'll tell you later." β
"You're like my brother, you still treat me like a child, and you don't want to tell me anything!" Tong Erfu was not satisfied with Ji Zuhang's answer, and took a big sip of the water cup, but accidentally choked.
"Of course I'm different from Ernan!" Ji Zuhang hurriedly handed over the tissue and said in his heart: You are brothers and sisters, we are not, how can it be the same.
"Ahem......" Tong Erfu hurriedly took it, "What's different, ahem......"
"Slowly, you will naturally know!" Ji Zuhang said solemnly.
All right!
After recovering from her recovery, she decided not to ask such meaningless questions and focused on her stomach.
"Where are we going in the afternoon?" Ji Zuhang finished buying the bill and asked Tong Erfu in an inquiring tone, he didn't want to send people home so early.
"Huh?" the question stumped Erf.
I'm tired of shopping!
I seem to have watched all the movies that have been released recently, and I can't go to see them a second time!
"Why don't we go to the school and have a look?" Tong Erfu thought about it for a long time, and somehow came up with such an offer.
Ji Zuhang frowned slightly, "But, isn't the school already on holiday?"
"The basketball team is still there, you can go play with them, you love to play anyway. Tong Erfu blurted out that she knew she shouldn't like the boy, but she couldn't help but want to see him.
Ji Zuhang was dumbfounded, spread his hands and said, "Do you think I'm suitable for playing like this?"
"Play casually, it's okay, my brother has beaten him in a suit!" Tong Erfu looked at Ji Zuhang with wet eyes.
When the players saw Tong Erfu and Ji Zuhang coming in from outside, they were so surprised that their eyes fell, they didn't expect Tong Erfu to come to school at this time.
Ji Zuhang came to play once, and he was not a stranger to the players, and the players knew that Ji Zuhang was not a rookie with only flowers, so they did not reject him, and they were very happy to see each other.
Yun Zhou slapped the ball and came to Tong Erfu, looked at Ji Zuhang who was shooting, and whispered to Tong Erfu: "Hey, you brought your boyfriend to school, do you know that it will make some people sad?"
After the last cooperation, and making trouble in the group every day, Yunzhou was a lot more casual in front of Tong Erfu.
A few strands of broken hair hung down in front of his forehead, beads of sweat were dripping from his face, but his handsome face was still full of vitality.
Looking at the boy in front of him, Tong Erfu couldn't help but feel a layer of sadness in his heart, and said lightly: "Brother Ji is not my boyfriend!"
"Isn't it your boyfriend? You hugged people so tightly the last time you left?" As soon as Yun Zhou spoke, he found that he was cheap again, but it was too late to take it back, so he had to take a step back and wait for the result.
Sure enough, Tong Erfu's face turned red, and he glared at Yunzhou and said fiercely: "My brother and I are like this, I grew up with Brother Ji since childhood, and it is a simple brother and sister relationship." β
"No, no, don't be so fierce!" Yun Zhou glanced at Mo Yufeng, who was practicing shooting three points on the court, and said in a low voice: "After you left last time, the boss was unhappy for several days. β
"What does it have to do with me that he's unhappy?" Tong Erfu's eyes widened.
"Because the boss has liked you for a long time!" Yun Zhou said this, and quickly slapped the ball and fled back to the basket.
Tong Erfu was stunned, and his head "buzzed", what is this called!
