Chapter 20: Our Story

Following Chen Zimo home, Mu Zhen poured Chen Zimo a glass of water and said, "Brother Zimo, drink water." Need to change your slippers? ”

"Well, don't bother, I'll do it myself." Chen Zimo said a little absent-mindedly: "You are also quite tired today, let's rest early in a while, put your things in the side bedroom, and you will live in that room temporarily in the future." ”

"Yes, okay." Mu Zhen nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Zimo, for letting me live here, I really appreciate it." ”

"Hehe, they're all relatives, what do you say to thank you." Chen Zimo said: "Do you want to eat anything at noon?" I'll make it for you, or let's go out to eat. ”

"Let me do it for you." Mu Zhen said with some joy: "It's always been a trouble for you, I think I can do something for you too." How about you try my cooking? ”

"You'll do it too?" Chen Zimo said with some surprise.

Mu Zhen puffed out her cheeks and said, "Why are you so surprised." You mean as if I don't know how to cook, but I've been working since I was a child, and I'm not one of the delicate girls in the city. ”

"Huh. I know. Well, since you've said so, let me see your craft. Chen Zimo stood up and walked to the refrigerator to open it, and said, "There are still some vegetables in the refrigerator, you can see what you can do, I don't command at all, you can play freely." ”

"Okay." Mu Zhen said with a smile: "Then you can rest, I'll cook." ”

"Yes." Chen Zimo lay lazily on the sofa and said a little comfortably: "Then I'll be lazy today." ”

"Actually, Brother Zimo, you work so hard, and cooking is indeed done by women." Mu Zhen took out some potatoes and radishes from the refrigerator, and said, "Ah, there are also pork ribs." ”

"Yes, yes." Chen Zimo said: "Do you know how to make pork ribs? ”

"Yes." Mu Zhen said proudly: "I've learned it new in the past few days, but I need a pot." Does that have that kind of pot? ”

"Are you talking about casserole? Yes. Chen Zimo stood up and said, "In the kitchen, I don't usually use it much." Man Jia won't either, and I'm too lazy to use it because it's more time-consuming. ”

"Well, even if I make it now, I'll have four hours. Well, I'll make pork rib soup, and then make something else, eat it at noon, and then if you have pork ribs, you can eat it at night, what do you think? ”

"It's good." Chen Zimo nodded and said, "Mu Zhen, you are really good, if anyone marries you in the future, they will definitely be very happy." Do you have a boyfriend now? ”

Mu Zhen blushed and said, "Brother Zimo, what are you talking about, I don't have a boyfriend, my mother said, if you want to find a decent one." Anyway, in general, I don't like it. ”

"Oops." Chen Zimo's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "I really haven't seen it, you little girl, you still have great ambitions." What kind of boy do you like? I'll leave you a little bit, there are a lot of single male teachers in our school. ”

"I don't want any." Mu Zhen said anxiously: "I don't have a job now, who would want me, I think girls should also find a job, but don't run around too much, because after all, family is the most important, but if I can work, I can also share part of the family expenses with my husband, which is good." ”

"yes. Your idea is really good. Chen Zimu said in agreement, and then his expression was a little gloomy, in fact, he didn't think so, Man Jia was so strong, he was much stronger than himself, but he didn't feel happy, maybe Man Jia didn't want to live such a calm and stable life at all, she wanted to fly higher, and Chen Zimo was a little sad to find that the other party had this ability.

Putting the ingredients away and covering the pot, Mu Zhen turned her head a little happily, but when she saw Chen Zimo's thoughtful expression, her eyes immediately dimmed, and after a long time, she said softly: "Brother Zimo, is it okay to ask you a question?" ”

"What?" Chen Zimo asked.

"Actually, it's not a problem, I just want to hear the story of you and Sister Man Jia, I can see that your relationship is good, you must have experienced a lot of things. It's just that now, I always feel that there seems to be some problem between you, and I don't know if I'm too careful. ”

Chen Zimo lowered his head and said: "You don't have much heart, there is indeed a little problem between us, but the problem is not big, I think we can all control it, you don't have to worry about this." ”

Mu Zhen's face changed, and he turned his face away and said, "I don't want to worry, I'm just curious." If you don't want to say it, forget it. ”

Chen Zimo looked at her as if she was unhappy, sighed and said, "A little girl is a little girl." Well, actually, that was all when we were in college, and now that I think about it, it seems like a long time has passed. ”

Mu Zhen's expression became serious, looking at Chen Zimo, looking at his gentle eyes, her heart was even more sour, but she couldn't say anything, because what Chen Zimo is entering now is a world where there are only him and Man Jia, and in this world, there is no room for herself.
