Chapter Ninety-Seven: Jealousy
The two men finished the account and walked out, the night was already very thick, but the jubilation of the people had just begun, and the scene of traffic on the street was as busy as day. The flickering neon lights add a little beauty to the night, but it is also sad.
The wind was a little cool, blowing Man Jia's hair, which made Man Jia shiver. Zhou Zheng subconsciously glanced at her and said in a low voice, "Is it cold?" ”
"It's not." Man Jia shook his head slowly, his eyes couldn't see any emotion, and said in a low voice: "It's just that I'm a little unaccustomed." ”
Zhou Zheng looked at her deeply, in fact, he understood what she meant, he had just walked out of the warm restaurant, although the temperature outside was definitely not cold, but the sudden change still made people shiver. Just like her current state of mind.
"Actually, I haven't been out like this for a long time." Man Jia squinted his eyes and looked at the traffic lights opposite, the lights of the department store were so dazzling, full of a warm temptation, as if to announce to people passing by that this place was still open, come and visit.
"Girls always like to go shopping." Zhou Zheng said with a smile: "However, I like to go out for a walk, every time I go on a business trip, I will slow down a little, of course, after everything is done, in this way, I will enjoy some scenery of the city that does not belong to me, and it is also a quick thing." ”
"Not a city of your own?" Man Jia glanced at Zhou Zheng next to him with some mockery, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with his words: "In this world, is there any city that belongs to you?" ”
"Of course, where I work, where I live, where I live, in the city, no matter what others think, but what I think, it's mine." Zhou Zheng said indifferently: "So in the future, no matter how long or far I go on a business trip, when I go back, as soon as I step into the land of my own city, I feel as if I am full of infinite power and come back to life." When I was tired or something, it seemed that I would forget it for a while, because at that time, I knew that I could completely relax. ”
Man Jia stopped and looked back at him, making Zhou Zheng a little puzzled, and reached out to touch his cheek: "Is there anything strange on my face?" ”
"It's not." Man Jia shook his head and said with a smile: "It's just a little accidental, look at you as big as you, but, it seems that you are still a very emotional person." This was a bit of a surprise to me. ”
"It's called chivalrous tenderness." Zhou Zheng said solemnly.
"Haha." Man Jia finally couldn't help laughing: "You are so interesting. Isn't that a bit of a narcissist? I thought you were a mature and steady man. ”
Zhou Zheng stood in the wind with half-squinted eyes, watching Man Jia smile happily, and smile heartily, if you laugh out loud like this, no matter what you do, you are willing. Unexpectedly, just after meeting a few times, Zhou Zheng had to admit that this woman already existed in his heart.
Yuan Dong drove the car, a little anxious. finally coaxed Liu Yun to calm down a lot, after feeding her, watching her fall asleep, she slowly withdrew the palm that held her, looked at the time, it had been so long, and then she remembered the family Manjia. I don't know if she's still there, with her personality, will she be angry, maybe not. made a phone call, but the phone was turned off, which made Yuan Dong's heart a little uneasy. Why, shut down!
When I saw a restaurant on the street, maybe I should buy something to eat and go back. Stopped the car, just wanted to get out, but was stunned, the person walking in front seemed to be Man Jia, she was smiling, which made Yuan Dong a little surprised, he didn't seem to have seen her smile like this for a long time, but the tall man next to her who looked like a good man was looking at Man Jia with a smile, which made Yuan Dong a little uncomfortable, obviously, Man Jia did not come out alone, and the man next to him was the one who made her laugh so happily.
"Are you familiar with this?" Zhou Zheng asked: "You are leading the way now, I feel a little uneasy." ”
"I'm a local, too." Man Jia said helplessly: "Am I not as good as you as a person from other places?" ”
"You're a little discriminatory." Zhou Zheng immediately retorted: "There is a very distinctive street around here, so do you know where it is?" ”
"Of course I do. Reef Street. A lot of snacks, a lot of crafts from all over the world, are there, and it's also very affordable, close to the university town. Man Jia raised his neck, with a victorious smile on the corner of his mouth, raised his finger and said: "Let me tell you, although I don't visit often, but I have been in this city for so many years, do you think there will be places I don't know?" ”
This move was very playful, which made Zhou Zheng's heart move, and he couldn't help laughing: "Okay, I admit it, I don't know where it is, but I really want to go, since Director Man is so powerful, why don't you give me a free tour guide today." ”
"Okay. Since you say so, I can think about it. Man Jia said: "You really know how to use resources." ”
"Alright, let's go."
"Hmm."
The two of them smiled and prepared to walk forward, a man appeared in front of the two of them, Man Jia was a little surprised: "It's you." ”
Yuan Dong's face was extremely ugly, in the scene just now, Yuan Dong felt that he was almost crazy with jealousy, Man Jia actually smiled like that in front of that man, such a naughty act, obviously in front of him, he had always been calm, and he couldn't make her happy, why did this man in front of him, who was not as good as himself, have such a ability.
Zhou Zheng looked at the man in front of him seriously, with a slender figure, a black windbreaker, and a well-tailored fit, if it weren't for the eyes that were a little sharp, maybe he couldn't help but praise in his heart, this man is a talent.
"Why is it off?" Yuan Dong's voice was a little cold, which made Man Jia's originally good mood disappear all at once, and looked at Yuan Dong with some scrutiny, as if he didn't understand what his current tone was, wasn't he the one who put her at home and didn't leave any information for himself?
"There's no electricity." Man Jia said lightly: "I have already eaten." ”
"Yes, with him?" Yuan Dong stared at Man Jia and said, "I didn't even know that you had other men. Man Jia, are you kidding me? ”
"What did you say?" Man Jia couldn't listen to it: "Stop, what am I fooling you, he is my new friend, and, Yuan Dong, are you a little unreasonable." ”
Yuan Dong paused for a moment and took a deep breath before saying, "Uh, yes." Sorry for my bad. So, can you go home with me now, I'm tired, you need to rest. ”
Man Jia was in a stalemate and didn't want to go back, although Zhou Zheng next to him was also a little puzzled, but he still didn't ask, he just said with a smile: "Man Jia, since someone is coming to pick you up, let's make an appointment another day." It's always good to rest early. ”
Yuan Dong stretched out his hand to take Man Jia's hand and said, "In that case, thank you for accompanying her when I was away." ”
"Uh, you're welcome, nothing." Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "It's just to accompany each other." ”
Yuan Dong felt that he was choked by this sentence, but it was not easy to have a seizure, but with a cold face, Man Jia waved his hand at Zhou Zheng, signaling that he could call in the future, Zhou Zheng also smiled and said goodbye, watching Man Jia leave with the man, turning his head and hiding a trace of loss in his heart.
