Twentieth Sugar: As it was back then
Wu Chengya stomped her feet angrily in the back, Zheng Yunzhi had not had a girlfriend before, but he never delayed work because of falling in love, "Mr. Wang, who is going to cooperate with our company tonight, will also attend!" ”
"Okay, then you can inform Zhang Tezhu to go on my behalf."
"Does it really matter? Why don't you go to dinner? Childlike care.
"No, I'll accompany you back to Tangxin, and I called Fang Mo to come over and chat at night." Zheng Yunzhi replied, "Go to your place at night?" I asked someone to bring my clothes? ”
Tong Xin glanced at him, "Zhang Tezhu is too pitiful, and he has to eat on your behalf, and he has to send you clothes, it's so miserable~"
The corners of the man's mouth twitched, a little helpless, "I have more than one assistant, childlike." ”
Tong Xin let go of Zheng Yunzhi's hand, jumped forward a few steps, and turned to face Zheng Yunzhi, "Mr. Zheng is so powerful, I don't even need an assistant!" ”
He held his forehead, was the serious childlike innocence also a mutation? Is this little girl too easy to trust others, completely unwary of herself, and at the same time he also feels happy, and it is a sense of accomplishment to be able to let the person he likes live like a child.
Thinking of this time, Zheng Yunzhi's old father sped up his steps and pulled the person into his arms, "Walk well, I won't help you if you fall." ”
The two drove directly to "Sugar Heart", originally Zheng Yunzhi wanted to go to eat first and then come over, but the childlike meaning is that there is no need to be so troublesome, the bar has a kitchen and a chef, and there is no problem with a simple dinner.
In the car, Zheng Yunzhi asked her, do you usually eat casually like this? After all, Zheng Yunzhi is a person who is very particular about eating and very delicate.
Tong Xin was not unhappy, she still smiled brightly, she said, if you want to eat better, I'll fry you a steak?
Zheng Yunzhi's ghost made the gods agree, in the past 20 years, he is a person who must go to a Western restaurant to eat Western food, or cook at home. For a long, long time to come, he felt that childlike innocence was like a little sun, always so bright, and could always sweep away the darkness in his heart.
After arriving at the bar, because it was still early and not very lively, Tong Xin had already called the manager to prepare the ingredients when he was in the car, and then went directly into the kitchen.
Zheng Yunzhi wanted to follow up, but was blocked by childlike innocence, "It's okay to keep a little imagination, I won't poison you, Mr. Zheng!" ”
"Okay, then Chef Hardboy, fry me a medium-rare steak."
"Huh? Can you just eat it? Still picky? Childlike pretended to be angry, pushed Zheng Yunzhi away with his backhand, and went into the kitchen by himself.
Zheng Yunzhi found a corner where there were fewer people and sat down, ordered a glass of whiskey, and sent Fang Mo a position, waiting for Tong Xin to prepare dinner while waiting for Fang Mo to come over and chat.
When Fang Mo arrived, Tong Xin had just made dinner and let it be served. Then Zheng Yunzhi expelled Fang Mo to another table as a matter of course in order to have a meal with his girlfriend, and told him to talk after eating. The angry old friend who rushed over wanted to hit him with a cup.
The steak fried by the childlike heart is very beautiful, the presentation is very good, and it is fried five ripe according to Zheng Yunzhi's requirements, the milk mashed potatoes are placed very delicately next to it, and the steak poured with black pepper sauce looks very appetizing.
"Huh? How can you be so good at cooking? ”
"Don't be in a hurry to praise me, eat first? It's just a steak. Tong Xin said as he handed the knife and fork to Zheng Yunzhi.
After tasting it carefully, he showed a very satisfied expression, "It seems that I can save a lot of money in the future?" Eat steak and recognize Chef Tong. ”
Tong Xin lowered his head and cut the steak, very calm, "When I was abroad, I ate steak every day, if I can't cook, I may starve to death abroad, I can't come back alive, and I can't see you again." ”
His hand holding the knife paused, and his understated tone made people feel particularly distressed, and he didn't know what to say for a while. Perhaps there should be a voice of comfort, but it seems that childlike innocence does not need comfort.
Tong Xin seemed to see through his thoughts, raised his head and smiled, and took the initiative to speak, "Don't feel sorry for me, I'm very good now, and I will have you by my side in the future." I think cooking is quite tiring, and I hope that Mr. Zheng can take the initiative to take over the work of cooking and washing dishes? ”
"Okay." He responded, he knew that she didn't like to get along with strangers, and naturally he wouldn't force her to hire workers.
"What are you doing looking at me? Although I know that I am indeed beautiful~"
He lowered his head and tasted the steak seriously, he could imagine that in the years when the childlike heart lived outside, he didn't know how difficult it was, maybe this pair of good-looking hands had been scarred because of learning to cook, so hard and so sad days, but she still lived like a little sun. Zheng Yunzhi felt that he had found a treasure.
In the past eight years, he thought countless times that he had no vision for love and no requirements for marriage, until he met Childlike Heart, and he realized that those who didn't matter, but he didn't meet the right person.
"Take you home to meet your family another day?" Zheng Yun's way.
Tong Xin was stunned for a moment, "Is it your home?" She subconsciously didn't want to go back to Tong's house, but she thought it would be a little too early to go home with Zheng Yunzhi in just a few days?
Zheng Yunzhi laughed, "Are you in such a hurry to see your parents?" ”
As expected, she gave her a sneer.
"Take you back to Tong's house, I'll support you, little fool." Zheng Yunzhi explained.
She was a little surprised, she didn't think that others would know very well what happened to her in the Tong family, how could she support it? "You know?"
"Well, isn't everyone aware that you don't have a good relationship with your family?"
She was afraid that Zheng Yunzhi, like some people, thought that she was jealous of her parents' love for her sister, and she was a little cowardly, "Don't you ask me why?" ”
Zheng Yunzhi swallowed a piece of steak that he was chewing unhurriedly, "I probably know something, you can tell me at any time if you want to tell me." ”
"You don't even know how to support me, aren't you afraid that I will cheat you?"
"Shouldn't I believe unconditionally and support my little girlfriend unconditionally?" Suddenly, he became serious, and took Tong Xin's hand and motioned for her to look into his eyes, "With me, you can walk sideways in Cloud City, and you don't have to be afraid anymore, you know?" ”
The moment her eyes met, she seemed to see the day six years ago, the day she saw him for the first time.
On the day of the banquet, the bell rang at twelve o'clock at noon, and the little young master brought by the old man of the Zheng family stood by the fountain in the back garden of the Tong family. Not long after returning to Tong's house, the family was already eccentric, and the childlike innocence who came back was still like an outsider and was not taken seriously.
When she saw Zheng Yunzhi, she didn't know who he was, she didn't know what his name was, she only remembered that the man standing by the fountain didn't seem to be very happy, and he didn't seem to have any emotions. At a glance, she stopped.
At that time, the twenty-two-year-old Zheng Yunzhi felt that the hot gaze had been falling on him, and when he turned his head, he saw a little girl, who was sitting on the stairs a few minutes ago and looked at the picture of Tong Rui, Tong Wenzheng and Liang Yuqing's family of three.
He didn't know who she was, and he didn't care who she was at the time. It's just that the girl is really beautiful, with two pigtails, and watery almond eyes, like a doll carved in pink, which makes him feel pity.
He thought that she was a child who envied this kind of life, so he said, "If you want to change your life, you have to make yourself strong." Reading more books is a good way, if you can, go to other places to see, go abroad to see the outside world, only you can protect yourself. ”
That was the first time the two met.
Six years later, on the day of the bar, Tong Xin recognized Zheng Yunzhi, he didn't recognize her, but later he also knew that the sullen little girl back then was not envious of other people's lives, it was the life she deserved that was taken away.
Zheng Yunzhi's words were very useful to Tong Xin, and after the banquet, she cautiously proposed to Tong Wenzheng that she wanted to go abroad, and the family readily agreed, on the grounds that Tong Xin and Tong Rui were far apart, which was good for both of them.
It's six years to go.
Thinking back, she whispered, "Actually, I'm not envious of her ......"
Zheng Yunzhi's voice also followed her softer, "I know, don't be envious in the future." ”
