Chapter 085: No money, no early knowing
Xiao Zhen, who couldn't wait to come out of the house after the New Year, wanted to use this time to accompany her well, and called the only one excitedly, wanting to surprise her, but she didn't expect that she was still with that person now, and rejected herself.
As long as there is that person, the first thing she thinks of is to reject herself, which makes him very congested but helpless.
In a depressed mood, he just hung up the phone when the phone rang again.
When he came to an elegant teahouse as promised, he didn't expect that there would be a place that would be open as usual for the Chinese New Year, and he really had to give up everything for money, which was not what he wanted.
What he wants is very simple, father and son, have a lover who loves each other, have a good job to support his family through his own hard work, and get together to share the joy of family when he is fine, and then. Drink with two or three friends until dawn.
It's just that all these seemingly simple requirements are far, far away from themselves!
Under the guidance of the waiter in the teahouse, Xiao Zhen came to the door of an elegant private room, he looked at the door, and he didn't expect that there was an interesting name on the door--- Lover's Pavilion.
It is not difficult to see the thoughts of the person who asked him, but he was in a low mood, so he didn't think about it so much at all, and after taking a look, he pushed the door in.
"Senior Brother Xiao, you're here." Ding Qing saw the door pushed open, raised his eyes and saw Xiao Zhen, and couldn't hide his happy mood on his face.
Xiao Zhen let out a faint "um" and sat opposite her.
Ding Qing saw that he was so angry with him, and even sat so far away, he couldn't help but feel a little lost, frowned inadvertently, and soon dispersed, still smiling at each other.
"I don't know what kind of tea you like to drink, so I ordered my favorite Pu'er, I hope you will like it." Ding Qing handed him the kung fu tea.
Xiao Zhen picked up the teacup and sniffed it in front of his nose, "Although I rarely drink tea, I like the fragrance of Tieguanyin." After saying something meaningfully, he didn't even taste it, and put down the cup directly.
Ding Qing smiled awkwardly, picked up Pu'er and tasted it, and said softly: "Actually, Pu'er is also very delicious, it is a taste that is both in front of you and very far away, and it is gradually forgotten."
It was as if she herself was in front of him, but it felt so far away.
"Although Tieguanyin was a little bitter when he drank it, it was fragrant and made people feel very comfortable. And although Pu'er is good, it is not my dish, as you said, it is gradually forgotten. Xiao Zhen glanced at her and said in a deep voice.
Ding Qing's heart was bitter, more bitter than Da Hong Pao (Da Hong Pao is also a kind of tea, the taste is very bitter), she said that she liked Pu'er, but he didn't even drink a sip, so she directly said that she liked Tieguanyin, she was not stupid, how could she not hear the meaning of his words, he was rejecting himself in disguise through tea.
But she didn't give up, and said quietly: "If you don't like Pu'er, I can cater to your taste and drink Tieguanyin like you."
She wanted to tell him that for him, she could do anything for him, and even her own preferences could be changed together to cater to him.
There is a good saying, if you like him, you will change yourself for him.
Xiao Zhen shook his head and said, "Since you like Pu'er, why do you want to drink Tieguanyin for something you don't want to do?" Just be yourself! ”
He wanted to tell her that if they like each other, not only for each other, but also to change themselves, then they will no longer be the person that the other person likes.
Isn't there a saying that a lover's eye is full of Shih Tzu? True liking or love, liking and loving is everything about each other, including each other's shortcomings, and there is no need to change anything at all.
Ding Qing didn't want to use the topic to play anymore, and it was futile to continue, she laughed bitterly twice, and said lightly: "Let's not talk about tea, why did you come so early this year, why didn't you spend more time with your parents at home?"
"Well, they're going to live in the countryside for a while today, I don't want to go, I want to come over here to see if I can find a part-time job to do it, and pass the time."
He told a white lie, although he didn't like her, he didn't want to embarrass her, or rather be sad.
"What are you going to do?"
"It's not clear yet, I contacted a few small companies, and I'll know the results tomorrow."
"Senior Brother Xiao's internship at the 'Night Wing Company' went well, right?" Ding Qing asked casually.
"Well, although I'm a junior and I'm already doing an internship, it's just over before the Chinese New Year, so I'm waiting to graduate from college and go straight to work, but I'll continue to study for graduate and master's degrees." Speaking of this, he had a little smugness on his face, after all, he relied on his own strength to win the affirmation of large companies.
You must know that 'Nightwings' is not something that ordinary people can enter, if it weren't for his own strength not being really strong enough, he would not be able to get in, so he had to continue to study and strive to have his own place in the company.
Ding Qing said with a smile: "Then congratulations to my senior brother, I have already found an iron rice bowl with my real skills before graduating from college, I originally had a treat today, but I have to treat you instead." Naturally, he picked up the teacup and brought it to him.
He said cheerfully, "Hehe...... That's no problem. ”
"Senior brother, you are so powerful, I apologize to you for those words before, you are fully capable of having everything with your own efforts, and you don't need to take shortcuts at all."
"Well, one day I can be on par with your father or the president of the East."
"Mm-hmm, it will!"
Ding Qing's words made his heart have more confidence and a little satisfaction, and the smile on his face became deeper and deeper, even if he just said that he didn't like to drink Pu'er, he drank it now.
Seeing him drink Pu'er tea, Ding Qing also had a plan in his heart.
For machismo men need to be coaxed and praised, Dad's words were really right, one sentence softened his attitude, and she pulled the corners of her mouth.
"By the way, does Senior Brother have the only connection for the New Year?" Ding Qing slowly brought the topic into the right track.
The task given to her by her father is not yet finished, but she can't be in too much of a hurry, so she has to take it step by step.
Xiao Zhen's expression flashed, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Not yet, everyone is busy for the New Year."
His hesitation and gloomy look were captured by Ding Qing, obviously they were connected, but he hid himself, why? Afraid of embarrassing yourself?
Just called him on the phone line, is it the only one on the phone with Ding?
Ding Qing snorted coldly in her heart, on the surface, she was still fine, and pretended to smile casually: "Yes, for the New Year, those rich people have a lot of entertainment, and she is probably also accompanying her."
There were thorns in the words, which made Xiao Zhen look at her with a frown, but he didn't defend the only one as usual, isn't it just as she said, the only one is busy now.
I was so busy that I didn't make a call to myself after the holiday for so long, and I didn't send a blessing text message during the New Year.
Seeing his dejected expression, Ding Qing knew that his words had stabbed him in the sore spot, wasn't this the effect he wanted? Why did she feel uncomfortable when she saw him for another person, was she jealous or unwilling?
Maybe it's both!
Seeing that he didn't speak, Ding Qing continued to ask, "Senior brother, are you very familiar with the only one?"
As for how the two of them met, she didn't know very well at the moment, but she only knew that after Ding Wei appeared out of thin air, he was a lot colder to herself.
Are they familiar? Do you know the only one? Xiao Zhen was speechless for this question, and didn't know how to answer her, so he said in a non-compliant way: "I have known her since I was a child, but then something happened to her, and then we were separated for many years, and she only met after she came to A University."
Or did she recognize her first, maybe she still doesn't remember who she really is, but she just regarded him as a new friend, not an old confidant.
Ding Qing said enviously: "It turns out that you still have this fate, I really envy the only one." This is her true words, and she envies the only thing that can make Xiao Zhen remember her even after many years of separation.
Only unforgettable will be remembered!
Senior brother, if we are separated and we don't know if we meet on the road many years later, can you remember me Ding Qing?
Xiao Zhen smiled bitterly in his heart, and pulled the corners of his mouth, "What is there to envy, didn't we also know each other in high school?" ”
She was surprised and asked in surprise, "Senior brother, do you remember what happened in our high school?"
"Hmm." Xiao Zhen looked at her, his eyes slowly drifting, as if he was reminiscing.
Ding Qing only heard him say slowly: "I still remember the first time we worked together on stage as a host, I thought, how can there be such a beautiful and smart girl to host with me, I was quite embarrassed at the time, I didn't dare to look at you, and left in a hurry after hosting."
It's just shy, I don't have any other ideas, I'm just curious about how she got a girl, and then he found out.
He paused, drank a cup of tea and continued: "What I remember the most is that you are the first in your grade group in every exam, and I am the first in my annual group, and some people in our class joked that fortunately the two of us are not in the same grade, otherwise my millennium view is estimated to give way, hehe......"
It all came so suddenly, so unbelievable, why at this time, why?
It turned out that he was not the only one who paid attention to him, he also noticed himself, if he was braver at that time, would their ending be rewritten?
"I don't know any of this...... Ding Qing looked at him with red eyes, "Why didn't you tell me about it, if I had known......"
Xiao Zhen came out of the memory, interrupted her words in time, sighed, and said: "What's the difference between knowing earlier and knowing later, and knowing it can't change anything, and it's been so long."
The reason why he talked to her about the past was to tell her that although he had noticed her at that time but didn't like her, it meant that it was not a matter of knowing it earlier, but a question of whether he felt it and liked it or not.
Liking or loving someone has nothing to do with time, it doesn't matter if you come first, it's just that the person who doesn't come first and who doesn't come first!
Ding Qing stood up and said in a lost voice: "Why?"
She was puzzled.
Xiao Zhen didn't answer her why, but chose to be silent, and if she continued to say it, it would only hurt, so why bother?
