Chapter 48: A Dance of Ice and Fire (15)
Walking on the road, Zheng Hong gave Zheng Yi another signal, a good signal, she walked very slowly, which made Zheng Yi's heart calm down a little.
"Are you cold?" Zheng Yi broke the brief dullness.
"It's fine! There is a down jacket to support! ~" Zheng Hong tidied up his down jacket again, saying that he was indeed fine, "Are you tired?!" Seeing Zheng Yi holding his own things in both hands, he was a little embarrassed, and softly comforted Zheng Yi with words.
"Not tired! It's big, but it's not heavy, and I can lift it for another ten miles! Zheng Yi comforted Zheng Hong with a joke.
"I'm embarrassed, we haven't seen each other a few times, and I need your help every time!" Zheng Hongzheng said words of thanks, which can be seen to be sincere.
"It's okay! Get paid! "Kindness is not expected to be reciprocated, not to mention that Zheng Yi's mind is obvious, but he has received sincere gratitude from others, and he always has to respond appropriately, and there is no response that can express his sincerity more than asking for a reward in a fake way.
"Pay!? Yes! How much to get! Zheng Hong also knew that Zheng Yi was not really asking for compensation, so he responded generously.
"If you want to answer a question, you have to answer it!" Zheng Yi said very seriously, and there is no excuse.
"Okay! You say, I answer! Zheng Hong's face did not change and his heart did not beat, it seemed that she could answer no matter how difficult the question was.
"Why are you different from me as you are to others?" Zheng Yi asked very cleverly, just now Zheng Hong said that he didn't pretend, then he didn't pretend, and asked important questions directly, if Zheng Hong had a heart, then he could take this sentence as a confession, if he didn't have the intention, he could also find out Zheng Hong's intentions, no matter how Zheng Hong answered, it was beneficial to Zheng Yi.
"Oh! Just ask this! Then I'll just say it! Zheng Hong's tone was very hearty, as if there was nothing that he couldn't just say, or was embarrassed to say directly.
"Hmmm! Say! It's okay! Through Zheng Hong's tone, Zheng Yi already knew that he was not able to play for the time being, it didn't matter, he was not in a hurry, because what he got was enough.
"Because you don't pretend!" Zheng Hong bluntly said a word that had nothing to do with praise or disapproval.
"Don't pretend?! Do you mean I'm being honest?!" Zheng Yi really couldn't be sure what Zheng Hong wanted to express, so he had to ask in detail.
"I don't dare to say if I'm honest or not, but I'm sure you don't pretend!" Unexpectedly, Zheng Hong said more directly, without even covering it up.
"Oh! Why do you say that?! Zheng Yi still underestimated Zheng Hong in the end, which is really different from the usual Zheng Hong.
"The first time I saw you, I wanted you to help, you hated that aunt, so you suddenly refused to help me, because you didn't pretend, the first time, I had a bad attitude towards you, and you immediately changed your attitude towards me, because you didn't pretend." Zheng Hong continued his bluntness.
"Just because I don't pretend, you're treating me differently than others!? Perhaps, I pretended to be deep enough?! Zheng Yi always thought that she didn't make fun of Zheng Hong to make her look at her differently, but she didn't expect that it was not, it was just the result of her accidental negative anger, whether she should thank herself for her luck, or thank Zheng Hong for her indifference, Zheng Yi had no answer.
"No one knows better than me! I've been pretending since I was a kid! When Zheng Hong said this, his expression suddenly became very solemn and very emotional.
"You talk about yourself like this, which makes people feel distressed when you hear it~!" Zheng Hong's words stung Zheng Yi, and pity made Zheng Yi unable to think about anything else, so he just said his feelings.
"Distressed?!" Zheng Hong grabbed the handle, couldn't tell whether he was happy or questioning, and blurted out this extremely colorful word.
"It's not! I mean pathetic! You get the idea! Zheng Yi knew that it was inappropriate to say this word bluntly at this time, so he tried to redeem it with clever words.
"I understand! I also understand that you are actually chasing me! Right! Zheng Hong's words made Zheng Yi understand that his redemption just now was invalid.
"Well, tonight, are we going to have a good time!" Zheng Yi was frightened, and he had to admit in his heart that he was knocked down by Zheng Hong's direct blow, and pushing the boat down the river was the only way not to embarrass the two of them now.
"Yes!"
"Then why tonight?" Since Zheng Hong did not directly agree with the idea of falling in love with Zheng Yi at all, the reason why she said all this is what Zheng Yi wants to know the most now.
"Because I know you've heard something about me, and if you don't break it today, it's going to be a knot in our hearts! I don't want to pretend in front of you! Zheng Hongzhi said his thoughts.
"What you say makes me feel more and more special!" Knowing that he has no drama now, Zheng Yi said this is nothing more than to regain some face for his loss.
"Yes! You're special! You're the first man to chase me with dignity!" Zheng Hong once again showed his straightforwardness.
"Isn't it! How is this possible, are all the men around you blind?! Zheng Yi's jaw dropped when he heard this. With his life experience, it is hard to believe that a woman with such outstanding looks will be chased by no one.
"It's not that no one chased after me before, it's just that you're not as upright as you!" Zheng Hong explained what he had just said again.
"I don't understand!" Zheng Yi really doesn't understand what it means to chase uprightly.
"The men in the past, either they have always been subservient, always flattering in the face of my indifference, they are pretending, and some of them have hit a wall in me, don't say it to my face, and say that I am not good everywhere behind my back! It's also pretending! Zheng Hong said very gloomy, obviously her indifference did not hurt others as much as others' seemingly unintentional disguises.
"I see! You are cold on the outside, but on the inside, you are more eager to be understood than the average person! "Zheng Yi has insight into people's hearts, and he can make people's hearts more concrete.
"Then you know me!" There was a hint of ambiguity in Zheng Hong's words.
"I don't understand, I didn't understand your heart a few seconds ago, and I still don't understand why you're so tired to protect yourself!" Zheng Yi further explored Zheng Hong's heart, and also used extreme methods to stimulate her, piercing the barriers in her heart, so that care could be truly sent into her heart.
Zheng Hong stopped, as if she had stopped protecting herself, she stared at Zheng Yi's eyes with eyes that she had never shown before, and those eyes conveyed hesitation, gratitude, and excitement. Zheng Yi completely understood at this moment that Zheng Hong is a person with sensuality in his bones, and it is extremely tiring for a person to pretend to be himself, let alone an emotional person. When your hard shell easily blocks others, it is yourself who is hurt. Zheng Yi suddenly didn't want to send it anymore, not because he didn't feel that he had a chance, but because he questioned whether he could withstand the trust of a person who let down his guard.
"Alright! Then let's go a little slower, and my home will be almost there! Zheng Hong obviously has a lot to say.
