Chapter 7: An Unexpected Encounter
Taking the subway back to the Xincheng apartment, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening, and although the weather was warmer in spring, the wind at night was still a little cool.
Ye Zhenzhen was carrying a bag in one hand and a scarf around her neck with the other, and was about to go upstairs when a white figure suddenly flashed to her side, "Zhenzhen!"
The white figure, tall and handsome, under the yellow light of the street lamp, Nan Zhiqiao's face had a slight smile.
"Senior Nan?"
Nan Zhiqiao walked up to Ye Zhenzhen, saw the big bag in Zhen Zhen's hand, and asked with a smile, "Went out to buy something?"
"No, my mother asked someone to bring me hot sauce and beef sauce from my hometown, Senior Nan doesn't like spicy food very much, I can give you a bottle of beef sauce." Ye Zhenzhen shook the package in her hand, and there was a slight collision sound of glass bottles inside.
"Well, I didn't expect it to come at the right time. ”
Nan Zhiqiao looked slightly tired, but looking at Zhen Zhen's eyes with deep warmth, Ye Zhenzhen looked behind Nan Zhiqiao, didn't find the white car, and couldn't help asking: "Senior Nan, you didn't drive, did you come over?"
"Well, walking and exercising, I just happened to be downstairs in the new city apartment. ”
"Oh, I see, I thought you came to me because of something. Zhen Zhen was slightly disappointed.
The night breeze blew, Ye Zhenzhen's long hair was flowing in the wind, raising her hand to arrange her hair, and the jasmine-shaped hairpin on her sideburns attracted Nan Zhiqiao's attention.
Approaching Ye Zhenzhen's side, she looked at the hairpin carefully, and asked in surprise: "Zhenzhen, where did your hairpin come from?"
After touching the hairpin, Ye Zhenzhen raised her head, met Nanzhiqiao's burning gaze, and asked rhetorically: "Does Senior Nan think this hairpin is very familiar?"
"It's exactly the same as the hairpin that someone I knew before. ”
"This is the one you think it is. ”
Nan Zhiqiao's eyes were puzzled, "How is it possible?" This hairpin has always been carried by my father, how could it come to you." ”
"Uncle Nan gave it to me. ”
Nan Zhiqiao's face was even more surprised, he was still working together in a laboratory in the afternoon, and after only three hours after work, his father actually met Zhen Zhen.
In the face of Nan Zhiqiao's questioning, Ye Zhenzhen told in detail about the chance encounter with Nan Jianguo in the Jasmine Restaurant in the evening, including the content of the conversation between the two, after all the experiences, Ye Zhenzhen asked: "Uncle Nan doesn't seem to be in a good mood, is there a conflict between your father and son?"
Although I don't know how my father Nan Jianguo would give Zhen Zhen the relics of his mother that he has treasured for many years, Zhen Zhen's question just now is also her own worry.
"I'm fine with my dad, but he's been getting a little preoccupied lately, and when I asked him, he only said that the group was busy. ”
"Is there something wrong with the Nanmu Group?"
"I usually pay attention to the news of Nanmu Group, there have been no major fluctuations in the group recently, and the internal and external situation is also very good, it shouldn't be because of the group. ”
"When people reach the age of 60, they are prone to psychological problems in the elderly, and loneliness is the most serious, is this also the case with Uncle Nan?"
"Maybe, because of the past, he has been living alone, although there are nannies and bodyguards who take care of him, but there are no relatives, and I, as a son, have not been filial......"
"It's not too late to realize now, and I often go home to accompany my father in the future, and I find that Uncle Nan is not as strongly opposed to your current job as before. ”
"I feel it too, and it's probably your credit. ”
"I didn't do anything. Ye Zhenzhen had a feeling of being unsuccessful and inexplicably grateful.
"No, you've done a lot for me, and my dad likes you, next time you can come home with me, aren't you the best at making the old man happy. ”
"What's the matter, I'm just a little bit better at coaxing people than Senior Nan. ”
"Don't be modest, the elderly in the nursing home next to the child welfare center are all praising you. ”
Ye Zhenzhen was not polite, and readily agreed, "Okay, next time Senior Nan goes back, I'll be with you." ”
Nan Zhiqiao thanked him very seriously, and then actually talked about the address of the old house in Beijing, "My dad lives in the old house in the western suburbs of Beijing, which is where our family of three lived when I was a child, after my mother died, my dad and I lived there for less than a year, and then I went abroad to study, and he was left alone in it, until now." ”
Speaking of the past, Nan Zhiqiao was a little sad, and Ye Zhenzhen comforted her, "When you go back, it will be a family reunion, and I believe that everything will develop in a good direction." ”
"Well, yes, do you have time this weekend? I'm just going back. Nan Zhiqiao began to make a formal invitation.
"Okay, I'll go back with you. ”
Ye Zhenzhen readily agreed, just thinking in her heart that she was going to help Senior Nan solve the problem, and like helping those old people in the nursing home, she didn't know that in Nan Zhiqiao's heart, Zhen Zhen's promise was a promise.
Looking at the bright and moving woman in front of him, Nan Zhiqiao's heart was hot, and he stretched out his hand and stroked the jasmine-shaped hairpin between the woman's hair.
"Sister Zhenzhen!"
A discordant voice came from not far away from the two of them.
Ye Zhenzhen's heart trembled, such a familiar and annoying and helpless voice, it couldn't be that kraft candy coming.
turned his head and looked, it was indeed Gao Xiaowei.
"Gao Xiaowei, why did you come along?" Ye Zhenzhen asked preemptively.
Gao Xiaowei didn't answer, but deliberately opened the distance between Ye Zhenzhen and Nan Zhiqiao, stood beside Ye Zhenzhen, stared at Nan Zhiqiao opposite, and asked, "Sister Zhenzhen, this is the person you said?"
A strange man came over, Nan Zhiqiao's hand was taken back from the jasmine-shaped hairpin on Zhen Zhen's head, looking at Gao Xiaowei and Ye Zhenzhen as if they had known each other for a long time, they couldn't help but ask curiously, "Who is this?"
"Gao Xiaowei, Sister Zhen Zhen's high school junior high school. Gao Xiaowei began to introduce himself, and then deliberately added, "I am also Sister Zhenzhen's blind date." ”
"Did you go on a blind date?" Nan Zhiqiao ignored Gao Xiaowei, but stared at Ye Zhenzhen, waiting for an explanation.
"Senior Nan, don't get me wrong, it was a long time ago, and it was a blind date arranged for me by my parents. Ye Zhenzhen was inexplicably a little weak-hearted.
Zhen Zhen's expression was in Gao Xiaowei's eyes, and the kraft candy immediately became a little unhappy, Sister Zhen Zhen is the goddess in her heart, how can she have a crush on someone else, and she is so careful.
Gao Xiaowei couldn't help but start looking at Nan Zhiqiao again, the man in front of him was handsome and straight, he was a one-in-a-million look, Gao Xiaowei, who was usually very confident in his appearance, was compared by Nan Zhiqiao, and began to be a little less confident, and then thought that Nan Zhiqiao was Sister Zhen Zhen's colleague, the two should have more topics, but I don't know what the other party's family background and character are, but, but judging from the dress, the other party is a very particular person, looking at the age, it should be a few years older than Sister Zhen Zhen.
After thinking about Nan Zhiqiao's possible shortcomings, Gao Xiaowei finally picked out one, "Sister Zhenzhen, who is this uncle?"
