Chapter 503: Father, Father!
"Tang Jingyun"
Walking on the campus of Shanghai University, a woman walked indifferently on the road, ignoring the whispered discussions of the students who passed by from time to time, and when she heard the shouts behind her, she stopped and turned around, and when she saw the comer, she couldn't help but show a gentle smile.
Zhou Shichen looked at Tang Jingyun's smile, with a little softness, and there was an indescribable feeling in the golden sunlight, just like her person, there was an indescribable feeling on her body.
Even she didn't understand much about herself, obviously the two didn't meet much, but she liked to associate with Tang Jingyun, and she often got up by herself.
Zhou Shichen walked over quickly, panting a little, and chuckled, "You are walking so fast, I almost can't catch up." As she spoke, she carefully glanced at the look between Tang Jingyun's eyebrows, and saw that her expression was flat, and she was not affected by the students around her, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
Tang Jingyun said with a smile, "What a coincidence, didn't you have no class today, why are you still in school?"
Zhou Shichen smiled and covered up a little embarrassment in her heart, she would not sue Tang Jingyun, she was just worried that she would be unhappy by gossip, so she deliberately waited for the school, she was a person from the past, and she understood the lethality of gossip better than many people.
How could Tang Jingyun not see Zhou Shichen's thoughts, and couldn't help laughing at the moment, "You, this temperament has to be changed, and if you are good to others, you have to habitually express yourself, otherwise others won't understand." "As far as Zhou Shichen's temperament is concerned, in the future generations, it is two words arrogant
Zhou Shichen lowered her eyes, and she didn't bother to pay attention to the people she couldn't see through
"That's right, since you've met, then I'll treat you to a meal." Tang Jingyun said with a smile, and didn't wait for Zhou Shichen to refuse, she had already ordered her to go down with a phone call. With her current situation in Shanghai, a place to eat is not easy to grasp
Dim lighting, low-key decoration, luxurious bills, elegant and stylish atmosphere, these things Zhou Shichen is naturally no stranger, she has lived in such an exquisite life since she was a child, but food stalls and roadside restaurants are things that are very far away from her life.
She thought it was just an ordinary meal between friends, but when she saw Tang Jingyun take out a delicate box from her hand and push it in front of her, she was a little surprised.
"Happy Birthday"
No matter how ordinary a blessing is, it made her eyes red in an instant, and her tears were uncontrollable.
Since her mother died, her father was busy with politics, and she rarely heard such words on this day, especially in the past two years, under her deliberate neglect, no one ever remembered that today was her birthday
I still remember that when my mother was still alive, she was also a very happy child, but the illness finally did not give the woman too much time, and she could still vaguely remember that the pale and thin woman, with a soft look on her face, took her hand and told her that she wanted to be happy. But now, there is only a very vague shadow left in her memory.
Tang Jingyun saw Zhou Shichen's appearance, sighed softly, no matter how mature she is, she is only a little girl in her early twenties, handed her a napkin and smiled, "Don't be unhappy, the cake I asked people to prepare will be delivered soon, today, our birthday star is the biggest."
Looking at Tang Jingyun like this, it is obviously a girl of her same age, I don't know why, Zhou Shichen has a faint feeling when facing female elders, this woman may be strong, or wanton, but she is a person who can be relied on and accompanyed.
She couldn't help but think of when her emaciated mother was lying on the hospital bed, she didn't know what "death" was at that time, she just looked at her mother with innocent eyes, and cried, "Without my mother, no one will love me." ”
Her mother told her, "You still have so long to live, and someone will love you for me." ”
She didn't believe it before, but when she saw Tang Jingyun today, she began to want to believe what her mother gave her.
"Thank you"
She whispered her thanks.
Tang Jingyun chuckled, Zhou Shichen looked cold, in fact, her heart was very soft to people who were really good to her, and she made her see in her the shadow of when she had not yet entered the Tang family.
Zhou Shichen opened the handbag, and there were two boxes inside, one was a set of precious jewelry, and it was a set of light-grained jade jewelry, she liked it at a glance, and it was just right for a child of her age, neither too glamorous nor too plain. But just look at the material, you know, the value is definitely not less than a million.
In the other box, there is a watch, a women's watch made by a famous Swiss artist, which is very exquisitely made, and the edge is engraved with the initials of her initials, which you can know at a glance that it is specially customized.
Regardless of the value of these two gifts, the intentions in them alone can be glimpsed.
Zhou Shichen took a sip, suppressed the sourness in his heart, smiled at Tang Jingyun, and showed the smile of a girl of this age, "Thank you, I like it very much." ”
She didn't choose to refuse, after all, she also knew some of Tang Jingyun's family background, and Tang Jingyun, who was able to open a Huagui auction house, was definitely a master who was not bad for money, not to mention that she had heard a lot of gossip about Tang Jingyun.
Tang Jingyun also smiled when she saw this.
It didn't take long for Tang Jingyun's temporary cake to be sent over.
The cake is a single-layer mousse cake, which is very beautiful, and Zhou Shichen feels that he has never eaten such a delicious cake.
Tang Jingyun's hook up an arc, you see, people are so easy to be satisfied, in fact, many times, as long as someone around her is willing to give her a little warmth, she will become very content.
It was undoubtedly a very happy meal.
After the meal, Tang Jingyun sent Zhou Shichen home and said with a smile, "I didn't expect to see you today, and the preparation was a bit hasty." ”
Zhou Shichen smiled, "No, I'm already very happy." She turned her head and looked at Tang Jingyun, "I'm very happy, I'm very happy."
If you want to ask Zhou Shichen, who has grown into one of the few female high-ranking officials in China many years later, what is the thing that she will never forget
Probably today, she thought
In her later life, she has experienced many things, including happiness and sadness, impetuousness in the depths of wealth and wealth, and loneliness in the dead of night, but the most memorable thing for her is today, because from this day on, she began to try to believe that someone would love her for her mother after all.
Sometimes, life encounters, which may change your life, are actually just a small thing in the eyes of some people.
When I arrived at the door of Zhou's house, from the outside, the lights inside were all extinguished, only there were only two dim lights at the door, which made Zhou's house even more deserted.
Zhou Shichen touched around but didn't touch the key, so he had no choice but to knock on the door.
After knocking for a while, I saw the light on, heard the sound of someone responding, opened the door, and revealed the face of a quiet middle-aged man, wearing a nightgown and dragging cotton slippers on his feet, looking like he had fallen asleep. Seeing Zhou Shichen, he frowned, "If you don't come back to eat, you won't say a word, what time is it, don't hang outside." ”
When Zhou Shichen heard this, he moved his brows, and then said lightly, "When will it be your turn to take care of me?"
These two people don't look like father and daughter, but like enemies.
If it hadn't been for the ability to see this man with a straight face just now, sitting quietly in the dimly lit dining room alone, with a few side dishes and a bowl of longevity noodles in front of him, Tang Jingyun would probably think that this was a very strict father.
She also "saw" that the man quickly changed into pajamas after hearing the knock on the door, and then came out to open the door for her with a sleepy appearance.
At that time, Mayor Zhou was not the unfathomable man, just a father who was looking forward to his daughter coming back to celebrate her birthday, he was looking forward to it, he was looking forward to it from the beginning of the sun to the street lights up, and the steaming batter became a lump, his only daughter still did not come back from outside, and he was the only one guarding an empty house.
When he was young, Mayor Zhou felt that nothing could bind him, even if it was blood and kinship, and he paid far more attention to his career than his own children.
But now, after seeing that his originally soft and tender child has developed this cold temperament, he began to regret it. It's obviously his daughter, and she should be held in the palm of her hand, but when did it become like this?
He was wrong.
People always go through their lives with regret.
But time has no regrets, and time never gives people a chance to regret.
Mayor Zhou still had something to say, but after seeing a rare friend beside his daughter, he smiled politely, "Xiao Chen is not sensible, I'm sorry for you." ”
Tang Jingyun smiled, she always felt that she couldn't see through this Mayor Zhou, especially in the current pattern of Shanghai, she couldn't see through what role he played, it stands to reason that it should be Lian Wei to resist the Hou, but he didn't try his best to hold Deputy Secretary Wei's partner. The attitude is unpredictable and really unpredictable.
She didn't stop long, but when she turned around, she whispered in Zhou Shichen's ear, "Remember to take a look at the trash can in the kitchen." ”
Then he left.
Zhou Shichen paused, walked into the house expressionlessly, and Mayor Zhou behind him was still asking, "Who is that girl just now, who is your friend, whose child hasn't seen much before." ”
Zhou Shichen smiled faintly, "Her name is Tang Jingyun, my friend." ”
Mayor Zhou frowned, Tang Jingyun has admired her name for a long time, but how could she become a friend with Xiao Chen
Zhou Shichen originally wanted to go back to the room directly, but remembering Tang Jingyun's words, he hesitated and walked to the kitchen.
Mayor Zhou was still in the conspiracy theory about Tang Jingyun's approach to his daughter, but seeing that his daughter hadn't come out of the kitchen for a long time, he hurriedly walked in, and saw his cold daughter squatting on the edge of the trash can, he couldn't help but smile embarrassedly, "Why are you squatting here, get up quickly"
Zhou Shichen slowly raised his head, his eyes were red, "Green pepper shredded potatoes, radish pork rib soup, fried beef in sauce, and longevity noodles"
Father Zhou covered up embarrassedly, "I made too much dinner, I couldn't finish it and poured it"
Zhou Shichen stood up suddenly, cried "wow", and hugged his father, "You lied to me, you don't remember my birthday, no one remembers, only Tang Jingyun still remembers the liar, the big liar"
She was like a five or six-year-old child, crying and complaining about the sadness and pain of so many years, and Father Zhou kept comforting her baby daughter, and her heart was about to break.
"Okay, good, dad is a big liar, I'm a big liar"
"I want to eat noodles and longevity noodles," Zhou Shichen sobbed willfully.
Where did Zhou's father have no reason not to agree, he coaxed her at the moment, and then cooked it himself and remade a bowl of longevity noodles for his daughter.
Longevity, my daughter, may you be safe and secure in the years to come, and live a long and long life
