Chapter 388: The Warmth of Another Person
He said as he laid out the contents of the bag.
What vegetables, fruits, meat, snacks and quick-frozen snacks are readily available, Zhang Xin was stunned for a moment.
"You're not going to cook at me, are you?" Zhang Xin walked over and looked at the dazzling array of things with some surprise.
Tao Xuyang saw her staring at her with wide eyes, and raised the corners of his mouth, "If you don't cook, do you just watch you eat that kind of thing?" ”
Following his gaze, Zhang Xin saw the takeaway on the table, and instantly shattered with embarrassment.
She smiled, hiding it with a smile, "It's not like I want to try something else today." ”
Tao Xuyang saw through her lying at a glance, but he didn't debunk it, "Since you want to try other flavors, then try mine." ”
"Yours?" Zhang Xin was surprised and a little skeptical: "Can you eat your rice?" ”
I saw him stare confidently smiling and start his cooking demonstration in an orderly manner.
"Wow, it smells so good." With four dishes and one soup full of color and flavor in front of him, Zhang Xin couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect you to have such a hand." ”
Saying that, he couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and eat some food, and as soon as he finished eating, Zhang Xin was even more amazed, "This is also too delicious, Tao Xuyang, you are too good, you can make the rice so delicious." ”
"If you like to eat, eat more, see that you have lost weight in the past few days." As he spoke, Tao Xuyang thoughtfully sandwiched a few pieces of meat into her bowl.
At this time, Zhang Xin paused, she thought about it, put down the dishes and chopsticks after eating what was in her mouth, and her happy face suddenly became serious and serious, "After today, don't come over again." ”
When the words fell, the corners of Tao Xuyang's mouth slowly relaxed, he didn't make a sound, and continued to eat as if nothing happened.
Zhang Xin thought for a while and explained again, "Look, I live alone now, if you always come over, the neighbors should gossip." ”
In fact, she did have a little happiness when Tao Xuyang appeared, but when she thought of what she said in the hotel that day, coupled with her current behavior, she really didn't know what kind of identity to face Tao Xuyang.
What if he gets along with him as a friend, and he misunderstands that she accepts his offer? She can't just ask people if everything they are doing now is they caring as a friend or if they have other thoughts.
"Are you afraid of gossip?"
His voice was faint, as if he had no intention of mentioning it.
Zhang Xin raised her eyes and met his gaze, and then, she immediately moved elsewhere, pretending to be calm: "It's not that I'm afraid of others talking nonsense, but I moved here and didn't want anyone to know, do you understand?" ”
"I understand." Tao Xuyang finished eating the remaining few mouthfuls of food, then got up and cleaned up the dishes, Zhang Xin hurriedly rushed to work when he saw this, "Come on, you have worked very hard today." ”
When grabbing the same plate, Tao Xuyang looked at her with his burning eyes and said, "As long as it's related to you, no matter what, you don't feel hard." ”
Sour.......
I don't know if it's because I haven't heard love words for a long time or because the person who said this is not the person he likes, Zhang Xin heard it, and goosebumps fell to the ground.
She grabbed the plate, but Tao Xuyang didn't let go, coupled with his intently looking at her, she had to take the initiative to choose to give up.
"You can do it if you want."
Zhang Xin smiled dryly and sat down on the sofa, although it seemed that he had been staring at the TV, in fact, his attention was in the kitchen.
Listening to the sound of pots and pans colliding inside, she couldn't help but glance at the kitchen from time to time, until she saw Tao Xuyang walking out, she immediately withdrew her attention.
"I've got something to do, so I'll go first."
As soon as Tao Xuyang finished speaking, Zhang Xin pretended to have just heard it, and was dull for half a second and said, "Okay, you can go." ”
Although he said so, the afterglow would still move with Tao Xuyang's figure.
The door opened, and just when Zhang Xin thought Tao Xuyang was going out, he turned his head back and said calmly: "Don't worry, no one will know your residence except me." ”
Zhang Xin was surprised, looked up at the door, and was about to say something, but Tao Xuyang had already closed the door and left.
She froze in place, her mind blank.
Every day after that, Tao Xuyang would come to see Zhang Xin, change the fresh food in the refrigerator every day, and make a delicious meal to accompany Zhang Xin to eat.
At first, Zhang Xin was really resistant, and even opened his mouth a few times to ask him not to do this unnecessary kind of payment again, but unfortunately Tao Xuyang never listened to her words.
Gradually, it seems that a person is used to being sad and painful in the middle of the night, so that having someone with him during the day will soothe the pain in her heart, so Zhang Xin gradually accepted the warmth that Tao Xuyang gave her, and this acceptance slowly became a habit.
The book says that the best way to quickly get out of the pain of the previous relationship is to quickly enter the next relationship, Zhang Xin and Tao Xuyang's state seems to have entered the stage of love, but in fact, the two of them know very well that the relationship has always stayed in the friend stage.
The reason why Zhang Xin accepted Tao Xuyang's kindness to her was that Lin Mu's injury made her very fragile inside, so Tao Xuyang's care filled a little pain, she wanted to use this method to forget the person who made her uncomfortable, although Zhang Xin also felt shameful in this way, but from the beginning, she made it clear to Tao Xuyang that she only treated her as a friend, so no matter what kind of behavior she had, she only held the attitude of a friend.
As for Tao Xuyang, of course he can see through Zhang Xin's inner thoughts, and he also knows that she has always regarded herself as a friend, but in his opinion, it does not mean that he does not have any chances, even if Zhang Xin's heart is not opened for anyone now, he is willing to wait until the day when it is opened.
He has faith and time. Book bar
On the other side, Lin Mu looked for someone to inquire about Zhang Xin's whereabouts, but the people sent out had no news at all, and in the end, he had no choice but to invite someone on the road to investigate.
A few days later, in addition to bringing back Zhang Xin's news, the secret agent also brought some other news.
"The reason why Mr. Lin has not been able to find out about his wife is because someone is secretly blocking it."
"Do you know who it is?" Lin Mu groaned, his eyebrows pressed slightly.
"I can't find out this for the time being, but the strength of the other party should not be underestimated, and I also found out the news of my wife after several twists and turns."
Under the dim light, his cold eyes became more and more obscure, and after thinking for a few seconds, he said, "Go down, I will let the assistant give you the money." ”
The agent nodded slightly, then put on his hat and mask, and gently exited the room.
In the night, Lin Mu looked at a thin back in the photo, and his expression darkened.
Knowing Zhang Xin's whereabouts, Lin Mu drove to her residence overnight, and according to the appearance in the photo, he drove to her downstairs.
Looking at the windows of the few doors on the upper floor, he didn't know which was Zhang Xin's residence, but when he thought of her living safely here, his restless heart had been restored in the past few days.
Lin Mu, who originally wanted to go upstairs and knock on the door, finally chose to stay in the car, and now she must not want to see him, it is better to wait until dawn and look at her from a distance.
Hope for the opportunity.
Lin Mu slept in the car all night until dawn.
Early in the morning, when he opened his eyes, it was already nine o'clock, and various numbers kept calling, and he chose to connect the assistant's phone.
"Mr. Lin, where are you, everyone is waiting for you to have a meeting."
The assistant said, and the call was heart-pounding.
He forgot that there was an important meeting today, and it seemed that there was no time to wait for Zhang Xin to show up.
"Let them rest for a while, I'll be right there."
After quickly hanging up the phone, Lin Mu's eyes looked at the building again.
According to her past temperament, I'm afraid she is still playing chess with Zhou Gong in her dreams.
Thinking of this, Lin Mu's eyes softened a lot, and then he took out his mobile phone and ordered lunch for Zhang Xin.
When she wakes up, she must be hungry, so don't be delusional about breakfast, let's order some favorite lunch for her.
happily placed an order, and Lin Mu was finally able to leave with peace of mind.
At the moment when he hit the accelerator and was about to leave, Lin Mu quickly stepped on the brakes.
His gaze was fixed on the front, revealing intricacies.
It turned out that he saw Zhang Xin and a man coming from a distance, and then walked into the building, the two of them were carrying things in their hands, talking and laughing along the way, and they were very happy.
The deep eyes suddenly became cold, Lin Mu suddenly stepped on the accelerator, and flew into the distance.
The loud sound caused the two who had just gone up the stairs, Zhang Xin rolled his eyes helplessly, and complained: "Do you say that rich people are so amazing?" Driving a car still makes such a big move. ”
Tao Xuyang smiled slightly, "Do you hate rich people?" ”
"How is it possible, I hate rich people who are self-righteous." Walking to the door, Zhang Xin quickly opened the door, and then added to the topic just now, "Of course, I also hate those scheming rich people." ”
Tao Xuyang didn't speak, and took the things in her hand and put them in the kitchen.
After being busy for a while, the two of them started breakfast.
"I haven't had breakfast for a long time, if you hadn't dragged me to morning exercise early in the morning, I guess I wouldn't have gotten up yet." Zhang Xin sighed with emotion while drinking porridge.
In the past, she would get up early because of work, and she would get up early later because of her children, but what she didn't expect was that she got up early now because Tao Xuyang pulled her up.
"You shouldn't sleep under the covers all the time, all the time is wasted."
"What's the solution, if I don't sleep, I don't know what to do." In fact, she never thought about what to do, she just wanted to immerse herself in the muddy days and slowly forget those unpleasant things.
"Don't you want to find a job and start your life again?"
Tao Xuyang's question made the cheerful Zhang Xin stunned, this question never seemed to appear in her options.
She smiled wryly, "Don't be kidding, you see me like this, what can I do." ”
Since marrying the Lin family, she has become a full-time wife, and although two years is not a long time, it is enough to free a person from the opportunity to connect with the outside world.
