Chapter 311: Conversation in the Cafe
Fortunately, there are no passers-by on the street now, so no one except Li Zhiming listened to Zhen Jiabao's emotional words.
Zhen Jiabao also felt a little excited after venting his emotions, the cold air stimulated some fragile respiratory tracts, and Zhen Jiabao couldn't help coughing a few times.
But when Zhen Jiabao raised his eyes from the cough and saw Li Zhiming's reaction, he regretted it a little.
Li Zhiming's lips trembled, and tears welled up in the eyes that were already a little dry and lifeless on his thin face.
Maybe it's because of Li Zhiming's age, so those tears are a little muddy, but it still makes Zhen Jiabao feel extremely guilty in an instant.
What did she say to Li Zhiming just now? Obviously, Li Zhiming is already unhappy because of bankruptcy, even if he complains a little, it is human nature.
Why didn't I hold back this breath just now?
Zhen Jiabao looked at Li Zhiming's face cautiously, not knowing what to say.
"I was a little excited just now, so please don't take it to heart."
Zhen Jiabao hesitated for a long time, but still said to Li Zhiming with a tangled heart.
Li Zhiming's lips trembled for a long time, but a relieved expression gradually appeared on his face.
"It's okay, I thought about it just now."
The expression on Li Zhiming's thin face gradually returned to calm, as if he had returned to his previous high-spirited image in various media and newspapers.
"I've figured out how ridiculous my Z-i&039;SA behavior is, but I didn't think that there are still so many people who care about and support me, and I still want to die to ......"
Li Zhiming lowered his head as he spoke, looked at Zhen Jiabao's hair, and moved the umbrella to Zhen Jiabao's side.
"I'm very happy to hear Miss Zhen say these things to me today."
Li Zhiming looked at Zhen Jiabao's eyes and said seriously.
I don't know why, Li Zhiming in the music hall spoke so calmly and rationally, and the more serious Zhen Jiabao's uneasy feeling became.
"Mr. Li, don't take what I just said to heart, what I just said is angry......"
Zhen Jiabao explained to Li Zhiming a little weakly, but Li Zhiming just waved his hand to stop Zhen Jiabao's next words.
"I know that my z-i&039;sa incident has caused trouble to everyone, especially when I was sent downstairs by the police yesterday, I saw so many reporters gathered downstairs in the commercial building, I really regret and am embarrassed."
Li Zhiming began to talk to himself as if he had fallen into his own thoughts.
Zhen Jiabao could only listen to Li Zhiming's words in silence, not knowing what Li Zhiming wanted to express.
"But just now Miss Zhen let me know that there are still people in this world who care about me, which is good, very good......"
When Li Zhiming said this, he was silent for a long time, and his eyes were actually wet again.
Then, Li Zhiming put the umbrella back into Zhen Jiabao's hand and bowed to Zhen Jiabao on the snowy street.
Zhen Jiabao was almost frightened by Li Zhiming's movements, you must know that Zhen Jiabao is just a junior, how can he stand Li Zhiming's bow.
So Zhen Jiabao hurriedly bent down to help Li Zhiming up, but he forgot that he was holding those newspapers in one hand and an umbrella in the other, so his movements suddenly became flustered.
Just when Zhen Jiabao was in a hurry, Li Zhiming had already straightened his waist, and looked at Zhen Jiabao's funny appearance and suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth.
Zhen Jiabao looked at the corners of Li Zhiming's mouth and felt that he was embarrassed, and he was a little afraid to see people.
After all, Li Zhiming also lived twenty or thirty years longer than Zhen Jiabao, and seeing Zhen Jiabao's shy appearance, he took the initiative to propose to go to the street store to sit together.
"Looking at what she looked like just now, Miss Zhen seems to have some health problems recently, so it's better to drink a cup of hot water first."
Li Zhiming has regained his previous polite and gentle temperament, and invited Zhen Jiabao.
Zhen Jiabao could not let go of Li Zhiming's soft-tempered opportunity, so he agreed without any hesitation.
No matter how you say it, this piece is also a business district in the center of the city, even if it is the most ordinary cup of coffee in a small street shop, it is close to the price of a grandfather Mao, Zhen Jiabao thought that Li Zhiming was bankrupt, but he hesitated to rush to pay the bill in front of Li Zhiming.
Fortunately, Li Zhiming did not mean to embarrass Zhen Jiabao, and after the two of them sat down in the street store, Li Zhiming handed over the menu to Zhen Jiabao.
This is what it means to let Zhen Jiabao order by himself, Zhen Jiabao tentatively ordered two cups of coffee and added some desserts, so that even if Li Zhiming wants to pay for it, Zhen Jiabao can rush to pay the bill under the pretext that he is too extravagant.
Li Zhiming seemed to know what Zhen Jiabao was thinking, and looked at Zhen Jiabao with a smile throughout the whole process.
When the waiter left the vicinity of their seats with the order ordered by Zhen Jiabao, Li Zhiming smiled and said to Zhen Jiabao.
"Miss Zhen has a good appetite today, but unfortunately my current financial situation may not be able to support the consumption of today's morning tea."
Zhen Jiabao also laughed when he heard this.
"You are an elder, I am a junior, where is the reason for the junior order for the elder to pay the bill."
Zhen Jiabao and Li Zhiming sat face to face but didn't know what they were going to say, seeing that Li Zhiming seemed to have gotten rid of the emotion just now, Zhen Jiabao asked tentatively.
"Where does Mr. Lee live now? Are you still used to life? ”
Li Zhiming was stunned for a moment as if he didn't expect Zhen Jiabao to care about his first question.
"Since the bankruptcy, my family's house has been taken over by the court, and now I rent a suite outside to live in - I'm ashamed to say that I am now a little shy to even rent a house, and I still rely on my family's former housekeeper to help me pay the rent first."
Li Zhiming didn't look embarrassed at all when he said these words to Zhen Jiabao, and Zhen Jiabao saw that Li Zhiming didn't feel sorry for himself when he talked about this kind of thing, so he was relieved.
"Mr. Li is a well-known philanthropist in our S City, so we will not spare our strength when you need help, and please Mr. Li must speak up if there is any difficulty, you must know that we all care about you."
Zhen Jiabao comforted Li Zhiming, and it happened that at this time, the waiter brought the coffee ordered by the two of them first.
Even though Li Zhiming is bankrupt, he has not lost the etiquette on his body, and he politely thanked him when he took the coffee from the waiter.
"Mr. Li, our boss said that he has received your favor, although there is nothing else that can help you, but you can't charge money for spending in our store."
The waiter glanced at Li Zhiming, actually blushed a little, and said to Li Zhiming in a stumbling manner.
Li Zhiming had just heard Zhen Jiabao say something similar, and when he heard the waiter say that the order was free, he immediately looked a little embarrassed.
"How can this work, since we are consumers, where can we have the truth of eating white food......"
Li Zhiming seemed to be a little resistant as if it was difficult to accept such kindness from others, and Zhen Jiabao looked at Li Zhiming's unadulterated refusal and was a little incomprehensible.
You must know that Li Zhiming has done a lot of charity over the years, even if he feels that he doesn't need to repay him for doing good deeds, it should be normal for people who have received his favor to want to give him this meal for free.
Where does Li Zhiming need such a reaction? The more Zhen Jiabao thought about it, the more he felt doubtful.
But since Li Zhiming insisted that this was not good, Zhen Jiabao also helped Li Zhiming say something.
"I invited Mr. Li Zhiming for this meal, and I also ask you to talk to your boss and give me this face."
Zhen Jiabao smiled and said to the waiter, waiter
After hesitating for a moment, he looked at the resolute expression on Li Zhiming's face before agreeing.
"Why should Mr. Li refuse, after all, it is all the fate left by the charity that Mr. Li once did."
Zhen Jiabao stirred the coffee twice in the coffee with a coffee spoon in his hand, and watched the latte art on the coffee be stirred up before asking.
Li Zhiming's face looked a little embarrassed.
"I didn't think I'd have this day when I was doing charity, and I'm ...... now In this way, where can you still face those people who used to be. ”
Li Zhiming's words were strange, but Zhen Jiabao didn't take it to heart.
You must know that people often have some strange thoughts at such times, so even if Li Zhiming shows this kind of self-loathing, Zhen Jiabao is not surprised.
In other words, Li Zhiming had already done something like z-i&039;sa yesterday, and now he wouldn't feel strange if he said anything else.
"Mr. Li always has to look forward, although the Dazhou company is no longer in your hands now, but you are only forty or fifty years old this year, and you still have a lot of time to use, how can you be sure that this is your end."
Zhen Jiabao persuaded hard, but Li Zhiming seemed to be particularly uninterested in the future in Zhen Jiabao's mouth.
"Don't say I'm this age, even when I was young, I relied on the support of my wife to start my business."
Li Zhiming recalled the things that he had started with his wife, and a trace of real positive emotions appeared on his gloomy face.
Zhen Jiabao looked at Li Zhiming's nostalgic look, not only a little envious.
"You and your wife have a good relationship."
When Li Zhiming heard Zhen Jiabao's words, a trace of sweetness belonging to young people appeared on his old face.
"That is, when my wife met me, I was just a hairy boy without any ability, and she suffered a lot of grievances in order to be with me at that time, so I have said to myself for so many years that I must not let her down."
This Zhen Jiabao also knows that although Li Shimin's wife died early, the relationship between these two people has been rumored as a good story in S City, and it is said that Mrs. Li does not know that it is a husband and wife who have been cultivating for several lifetimes, so she met Li Zhiming, a man who is rich and single-minded.
"You don't have to listen to what they say is my wife's life, in fact, the person who has a good life between me and my wife should be me."
Li Zhiming took a sip of coffee and said to Zhen Jiabao slowly.
"It is said that my wife and I started a business together when we were young, but if it wasn't for me, my wife wouldn't have to suffer so much, she was originally a young lady, and she had never even washed dishes before she was with me."
Li Zhiming looked at his palms spread out on the table, and his tone was a little emotional.
"So when we first started our business, it was actually my wife who was handling the company's affairs, and I followed my wife to learn her methods and cook for her at the same time."
Zhen Jiabao was suddenly a little shocked when he heard this, it turned out that Li Zhiming's home was actually outside the female protagonist and the male protagonist back then?
You must know that twenty years ago, society was still relatively conservative, and everyone thought that men must be outside to do their careers, and if there was a man like Li Zhiming who was willing to be a househusband behind his wife, he would definitely become the laughing stock of everyone around him.
I really can't see that Li Zhiming has had that kind of experience, Zhen Jiabao couldn't help but be a little surprised, so he remembered the high-ranking president in his family.
However, the president's talent in business is indeed much higher than his own, and Zhen Jiabao never had the idea of stepping on Helian Quan's head, so he just asked Helian Quan to wash his hands and make soup in his mind, and then he was startled by his own thoughts.
