Chapter Forty-Nine: A Child Who Grew Up with a Golden Spoon
The man had been staring at his phone so much that he had almost missed the floor he was going down to. What's worse is that he didn't notice the delivery guy who came in earlier and stood in front of him and the brown paper bag full of takeaway in his hand.
When this person squeezed out of the elevator from the crowd, his actions were quite reckless, and he squeezed the group of people on the left and right sides aside at once, including of course the little brother who was holding the takeaway.
Because he moved too fast when he got out of the elevator, and the strength was a little fierce, the takeaway brother didn't pay attention, and the takeaway he had been holding in his hand flew towards Cong Rong who was standing aside.
However, just as the paper bag was about to fall on her, a big hand suddenly came up, not only blocking the takeaway and the soup that had seeped out of the brown paper bag for her, but also hugging her to the side at once.
A full 5 servings of Malaysian seafood rice noodle soup were all spilled onto the floor of the elevator room, and everyone took a few steps back. Cong Rong raised her head, looked at the people around her in the elevator and the surprised expressions on their faces, and then looked at the big hand that was still on her waist and looked all the way to the owner of this hand. I saw that Xiao Zhengyun still looked calm, but the arm that was holding her didn't let go.
Cong Rong felt the temperature of his body wantonly through Xiao Zhengyun's arms, she pretended to be calm on the surface, but her heart was already turbulent. She also held Xiao Zhengyun's hand, but tried her best to suppress the restlessness in her heart. Although her crush for the past 2 months is close at hand and has had some physical contact with her, she just doesn't want to expose her feelings, carefully conceals her true feelings, and doesn't want to expose it.
The elevator finally reached the first floor, and Xiao Zhengyun took Cong Rong's hand out of the elevator room before he was willing to let go. It wasn't until the two of them walked away that the voice of the takeaway brother who kept apologizing to everyone in the elevator gradually disappeared.
"My car is parked near a café, and what you left off on Saturday is still in the car, and we will have a meal together at noon, and then I will bring it to you?" Xiao Zhengyun said straight to the point.
"Okay!" Cong Rong didn't say much, just guessed Xiao Zhengyun's intentions in her heart.
Finally, they came to the café, and after taking a seat and ordering, Xiao Zhengyun began to look at Cong Rong with a slight smile but did not speak.
"Xiao Zhengyun, you look at me a little hairy in your heart." Cong Rong said a little embarrassed.
"Do you know why I came to you at noon today?" Xiao Zhengyun asked Cong Rong with a smile.
"Didn't you come to get me what I left in your car on Saturday?" Cong Rong replied with some confusion.
"I'm not in such a hurry, and I don't really need to rush to get it to you at noon today, but I'm still here." Xiao Zhengyun looked at Cong Rong and said with a little meaning.
Looking at each other, Cong Rong was even more embarrassed by Xiao Zhengyun, and her heart beat faster.
"Then why are you coming to me now?" Cong Rong regretted it as soon as she ran out of the question, she was looking forward to hearing the answer she wanted from Xiao Zhengyun's mouth, but at the same time, she was also afraid to hear the answer she didn't want.
At this time, the waiter brought two 5-ripe steak sets, and Xiao Zhengyun closed the mouth he was about to open again.
After the waiter left, Xiao Zhengyun made a gesture of invitation to Cong Rong, signaling that she could start, and began to pick up the knife and fork at hand and cut the beef in front of him. Cong Rong saw that he didn't intend to continue, so he also picked up the knife and fork in front of him and began to feast.
After all, it was just a morning meeting, and Cong Rong, who used her brain too much, still tried to maintain a reserved eating appearance in front of Xiao Zhengyun, but she was vegetarian. Don't think about it first, it's important to fill your stomach, after all, you can't live up to such a tender and juicy good Angus steak, Cong Rong lowered her head and ate while thinking, and didn't look at Xiao Zheng and Yun in front of her again.
Soon, however, the man in front of her spoke again.
"I like to eat low-fat oxeye meat, and I don't like to eat unhealthy junk food. Although I am a big fan of fitness and swimming, I also have a habit of smoking. After my mother died when I was 12 years old, my father sent me to Hamburg, Germany, where I went to school and studied piano making until I was 26 years old, when I was able to return to live with my father in Shanghai. From an outsider's point of view, you may think that I am a child who grew up with a golden spoon, and Cong Xiao has the halo of the son of a master piano maker, coupled with the title of the sole heir of a well-known multinational company, so I must have a smooth life, and I can even call the wind and rain. However, in fact, I am just a perennial wanderer and a person who feels lonely, and sometimes I feel physically and mentally exhausted, and I want to find a woman who can fall in love with me, and end the lonely journey of this life. Xiao Zhengyun suddenly put down the knife and fork, looked at Cong Rong in front of him, and said seriously.
"So what do you want to tell me?" Cong Rong listened to what Xiao Zhengyun said to her, and couldn't bear it anymore, she immediately threw out this question after Xiao Zhengyun finished speaking.
"So, I think now I've found the person who can end my loneliness, and that person is sitting in front of me right now, and it's you, Cong Rong." Xiao Zhengyun finally confessed to Cong Rong, word by word, fresh and sincere.
"You mean, you like me?" Although Cong Rong personally heard Xiao Zhengyun confess to herself, she still didn't believe it.
"Yes, Cong Rong, I like you! At the Triangle Troop charity event that day, I was attracted by a song called "The Girl by the Bridge", and when I looked closely, I saw that there was a girl sitting on the ground next to such beautiful music, painting in a chic and quiet manner. This girl is you. Later, you and I mentioned your father, and I also mentioned my mother to you, and I felt really happy to meet you. Xiao Zhengyun narrated to Cong Rong while recalling the picture when he met Cong Rong by chance.
"Then you are confessing to me? So what are you going to do now? Cong Rong listened to what Xiao Zhengyun said, but somehow, at this time, she slowly regained her calm and sanity from the state of mind she had just been nervous, she didn't know where she got the courage, and continued to ask Xiao Zhengyun.
"I came to you suddenly today for this purpose." Xiao Zhengyun's tone became a little hurried, and at the same time became serious.
"You're not going to ask me for help again, are you? Were you really confessing to me just now? Why do I think you're here to set me up? Cong Rong listened to Xiao Zhengyun's answer, looked at him suspiciously, and asked.
"Do you really think of me that way, Cong Rong?" Xiao Zhengyun listened to what Cong Rong said, his face suddenly sank, he put away the warmth he had just now, and said with some disappointment.
A good confession, I don't know when, but it became mutual suspicion between two people, which is not the beginning of a good relationship.
