Jason didn't continue to speak, but picked up the dessert spoon and devoured the cake on his plate.

He needed to catch his breath and calm himself and finish the rest of the story.

As for Jingzhi, she ate the cake on the plate unhurriedly and waited patiently for Jason.

Jason, she thought to herself, is a responsible person, and he must have the courage to face all kinds of difficulties in life. No matter how fate tortured him, he would always do everything he could to overcome all kinds of difficulties and obstacles.

Jason finished his cake and drank the oolong tea from his cup.

At this time, Florence walked over and greeted Jason, "Need something, Jason?" ”

Florence spoke to Jason in a very soft voice, a bit like a little sister, speaking to her brother who had been taking care of her; It's a bit like a girl in the middle of a crush, talking to the man she likes.

This made Jingzhi feel very lost, and the sweet and sour drink in her mouth was now only a sour taste, and she felt like she was about to pour her teeth down.

"Bring me another cup of oolong tea like this." Jason replied softly.

From the tone of his voice to Florence, Jingzhi could easily feel that he was both gentle and considerate and loving to Florence. At this moment, Jingzhi is very envious of Florence, who can work part-time in this store and work with Jason. It can really be said that the building near the water is the first to get the month!

“OK！” Florence smiled and walked away.

"Alas..."Jingzhi sighed in her heart, "The two of them get along day and night, and they fall in love for a long time... Isn't that how it is played in movies? Sure enough, for Jason, I'm just a passer-by..."Thinking of this, Jingzhi's face became ugly.

"What's wrong with you?" Jason asked with concern, he saw Jingzhi absentmindedly put the cake in her mouth and didn't chew it, "Is it because your teeth are uncomfortable?" ”

"It's okay..."Jingzhi came back to her senses suddenly, chewed the cake in her mouth after dividing it by two, and swallowed it in her stomach at once. She grabbed the glass on the table again and drank the drink inside.

"Are you alright? Eating in such a hurry? Jason still felt Jingzhi weird, "Do you need another drink?" I'm going to tune it for you. ”

"No, no..."Jingzhi shook her head slightly, "I'm already full..."

Jason was about to get up, but when he saw Jingzhi shaking her head, he had to give up, and said with a wry smile: "Okay, in that case, I'll ask Florence to bring you a cup of hot lemonade." ”

Now it's Jingzhi's turn to be speechless. Luckily, Florence came over to help her out.

"It's your oolong tea, Jason!" As she spoke, Florence placed a cup of freshly brewed oolong tea in front of Jason.

"Florence, can you bring the guest across the street a glass of hot lemonade?" Jason asked softly.

"Absolutely!" Florence had a shy smile on her face, like a budding lotus flower, floating on the calm surface of the lake.

Jingzhi saw that the two people in front of her had such a tacit understanding, and the heart that had just been warmed by Jason's thoughtfulness cooled down for the most part.

After Florence left, Jingzhi was listless.

"What's wrong?" Jason asked curiously, "Look at how lost you look." ”

"Not much..."Jingzhi barely cheered up, "Your story is not finished yet..."

"I think," Jason said reluctantly, "that's all for today." ”

Although Jingzhi felt a little regretful, she didn't mean to be reluctant. Because, she had a hunch that the end of that story must be a pain buried in Jason's heart. She didn't want Jason to remember those sad memories again, not for a second.

"Tell me about you," Jason said, holding the teacup to his lips, "Can you tell me a story?" I'm very interested in listening to yourself..."Jason's words really flattered Jingzhi! She never imagined that the guest opposite who "shared a table" with her would want to hear a story about herself.

"He... Are you asking about me? Jingzhi muttered in her heart, "Did my ears hear it wrong?" Alas... I heard it wrong, and maybe I didn't hear it..."

"What? You don't want to? Jason looked at Jingzhi silently, his heart was full of anticipation, "It's okay to say anything, as long as it's about you..."

Hearing Jason say this, the stone in Jingzhi's heart finally fell to the ground. She said "calmly," she said, "Okay, then I'll tell you a story about myself." ”

Jason smiled and said, "Well, a story, another story, that's fair..."

"Well, since you're fair, I'll tell you a story about piano performance." After speaking, Jingzhi sat up straight.

Jason smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen..."

"When I was very young, my mom wanted me to be a pianist." As she spoke, Jingzhi smiled shyly.

"Pianist? Same as my mom? Jason asked, surprised.

"Yes," Jingzhi said helplessly, "but that's just my mother's wish, not what I want." ”

"And what do you want?" Jason asked curiously.

"Me?" Jingzhi said helplessly, "You may not believe it when you say it." I want to be a scientist. ”

"Why do you want to be a scientist?" Jason has one more question.

"Because my idol who I adore so much is Marie Curie. In my opinion, she is a woman of wisdom and beauty. From the tone of Jingzhi's voice, Jason clearly sensed Jingzhi's admiration for Marie Curie.

"So, you decided to give up playing the piano and choose scientific research?" Jason's curiosity came one after another.

"yes, so, I'm doing my PhD now, doing research." Jingzhi had just finished speaking when she was interrupted by Florence.

"Excuse me, here's your hot lemonade." As she spoke, Florence placed a steaming glass on the table.

Jingzhi looked up at Florence and hurriedly said, "Thank you..."

"Thank you, Florence!" After Jingzhi thanked her, Jason also echoed and said a word of thanks.

Florence was in a good mood, nodding at Jingzhi and Jason, and turned to leave.

"You want to be a scientist. However, your mom wants you to be a pianist. How was this contradiction resolved, in the end? Jason's curiosity was not distracted by Florence in the slightest, and he had one more question.

"This problem was solved very dramatically." As she spoke, Jingzhi smiled slyly and continued, "When I was five years old, my mother hired a teacher for me to come to my home and teach me to play the piano. ”

Jason nodded, "That's ......"

Jingzhi continued, "Although my dream is to become a scientist, I am also happy to learn to play the piano and cultivate my musical cells. ”

"A lot of scientists like to play music with musical instruments." Jason explained.

"In my childhood, I was always very diligent in my piano practice." Jingzhi had a proud expression on her face when she spoke.

"You can see that you are a very hardworking person." Jason nodded.

When Jingzhi heard Jason's positive comments about her, a fire suddenly rushed through her heart, and her throat was almost speechless. She picked up the glass on the table and drank more than half of the lemonade in it before reassuring herself and continuing to tell her own story.
