Chapter 321: Guilt
Zhang Chen was waiting for his grandfather to reprimand him, but after waiting for a long time, he looked up and saw that his grandfather was looking at him obscenely.
He was startled, "Grandpa? ”
Zhang Yicheng was thinking in his heart that his grandson was so sullen, how could he let the two children get married smoothly, but was interrupted by Zhang Chen's voice.
Glancing at him with an unhappy face, Zhang Yicheng said, "Got it." ”
Originally, Zhang Chen should be happy not to be asked, but thinking that grandpa may have let himself go so easily because of this favor on Lexi, he was a little apprehensive, could it be said that Lexi's status in his grandfather is already high enough to be on a par with the safety of the entire Zhang family? Can you still successfully dissuade him from pulling himself together with Lexi?
The answer, of course, is no. Zhang Chen came to such a conclusion at the dinner table not long after.
Not only grandfather Zhang Yicheng, but even the second girl is also very enthusiastic about Lexi, the plate in front of her has to be piled up into a hill by the dishes sandwiched by the two, and no one even thinks about it, to give even a chopstick to herself who has not eaten together for two or three years.
Zhang Chen sensed their Sen Sen's malice.
He silently pulled the rice into his mouth, regarded each grain of rice as an enemy, chewed and swallowed it fiercely, and then picked it up, chewed it again, and swallowed it again.
It wasn't until Lexi really couldn't eat anymore and stopped the two of them from picking up vegetables that the second girl had free time, she turned her head and saw Zhang Chen picking up rice without looking up, "Hey, brother, today's rice is so delicious, is it so delicious that you don't need to eat vegetables?" ”
"Hmm." Zhang Chen was too lazy to take care of this conscienceless little girl.
How do you know that Erniu didn't get any response and was not annoyed, she lowered her head and took a mouthful of rice in her mouth, and when she swallowed it, she looked up at him seriously and commented: "It's really delicious, this is the Lin Ping rice you brought in Nanjun, right?" It's crystal clear, the smell is fragrant, and it tastes quite chewy, so it's really enough to eat just rice! ”
What is this dead girl? No matter how delicious the rice is, it must be eaten with vegetables! Zhang Chen pulled out a far-fetched smile while continuing to pick up the rice, he didn't believe it, and no one could see that he was really angry.
"Ah Chen, this sauce eggplant with rice is even more delicious, you can taste it~"
A chopstick-sauced eggplant, which fell into Zhang Chen's rice bowl with the voice, was sandwiched by Lexi.
Zhang Chen looked at her flattering smile, lowered his head helplessly, and put the eggplant sauce into his mouth, "It's really good." ”
……
Zhang Chen's little emotions were swallowed with the eggplant sauce, but when he thought of his relationship with Lexi, he always had to make it clear.
"Ah Chen, you don't speak, what are you doing calling me here?" The two of them stared at each other with big eyes, as if they were competing to see who could hold their breath the most, but in the end, it was Lexi who couldn't hold back and took the lead in opening his mouth.
"Lexi, I have to make it clear to you, I don't have anything to think about marrying you."
Zhang Chen didn't want to embarrass Lexi by refusing to face to face, but he knew that if Lexi wasn't like a dead heart, even if Zhang Chen ignored her, she would continue to help herself rebuild her confidence and stick to the set goal unyieldingly.
"Nonsense, obviously you also promised the master at the beginning!" Le Xi snorted angrily, looking at Zhang Chen's appearance, as if he was looking at a negative man.
However, from her point of view, what Zhang Chen said and did at the moment was indeed no different from a negative man.
"I just promised to take care of you, but I didn't say anything else." Zhang Chen spread his hands, "I have never forgotten your life-saving grace, and I also think that I have done it." ”
Lexi was so angry with Zhang Chen that she couldn't speak at the moment, she pointed at Zhang Chen and burst into tears, "What's wrong with me?" If you say it, I can't change it? ”
Hearing her words full of affection and condemnation, Zhang Chen should have apologized to her guiltily, but because the memory of his previous life was too clear, he said without thinking about it, "Where do you like me, you say it, can't I change it?" ”
"Poof!" Lexi, who was crying with tears on his face, instantly broke his work, "Can you stop talking and let me finish crying?" It's hard to brew the mood. ”
Zhang Chen knows! Lexi, this is playing with himself!
But what's the matter with the flickering loss in my heart?
Zhang Chen, who was about to say that she would stop playing, saw that Lexi's expression instantly became solemn, she raised her face and said to Zhang Chen, "I'm not joking, I'm not playing, I'm serious and want to marry you." ”
Zhang Chen was frightened, and just wanted to say something more, but she continued, "I want to marry you, not because of the master's entrustment, nor because of the people around me, but I feel that I am most comfortable with you." ”
"You always have to find someone to start a family in the future, why can't that person be me? Let's give it a try!? ”
"This is not something that can be tried casually...... Zhang Chen was about to popularize with her at length the chicken soup for the soul such as 'marriage without feelings is unhappy', but she raised her hand to interrupt him, so he could only close his mouth and listen to her continue.
"I know, what are you going to say that we don't have feelings for each other, but if you don't settle down and get along with me for a while, how can you be sure that you and I are really not suitable? How much do you know about me? What I like to eat, what color do I like best, what do I do when I'm happy, who do I cry to when I'm sad, are you sure you know it all? ”
There was no trace of ups and downs in her words, but Zhang Chen, who had already made up his mind, was shocked, to be honest, for Lexi's understanding, Zhang Chen only stayed during the period of recuperation, watching her and her master fight wits and courage every day. After bringing her to the capital, Zhang Chen was busy with his own business, and the number of times he met her was limited, and Lexi had many big and small disasters, so he helped her wipe her butt a few times, although he didn't say much about her, his impression of her became a little worse.
But if he said how well he knew her, Zhang Chen really couldn't say it, at least he couldn't answer any of Lexi's questions just now.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chen felt guilty in his heart. A little girl, she let go of everything she was familiar with, followed her self to a strange place, and regarded herself as his only support, but what did she give her in the end?
"I ......" wanted to say something, but found that there was nothing to talk about.
Want to apologize? It doesn't seem to be. At least after bringing her to the capital, he still sent someone to take care of her food and daily life. When she encounters difficult things to solve, she helps her solve them one by one.
