Chapter 248: A dilemma
The man finally sat down behind Huo Zhen.
The two of them sat at different tables, as if they didn't know each other at all, and it was just a coincidence that they sat so close.
But Luo Zhi, who has been paying attention to the movements of the two, knows that this matter is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface.
After this person arrived, Huo Zhen's state looked obviously much more relaxed.
A waiter from a cake shop stepped forward to ask the new guests what they needed, and Huo Zhen, who was partially obscured from his vision, looked up seemingly inadvertently and met Luo Zhi's gaze.
Luo Zhi was immediately stunned, and there was a moment of trance.
Huo Zhen quickly withdrew his eyes, as if he had never noticed it at that moment just now.
Luo Zhi's doubts were even more prevalent.
What the hell is Huo Zhen doing?
As soon as this thought arose in Luo Zhi's mind, he saw Huo Zhen's feet move, and the canvas bag that was originally placed under his chair was quietly kicked by him under the chair behind him, which was also under the chair of the new person who came in.
Because his movements were too hidden, no one else found out about this scene except Luo Zhi.
After doing this, Huo Zhen threw down a hundred yuan on the table, turned around and walked out of the store, as if he had never brought any canvas bags with him before.
The waiter in the store turned her head and found that Huo Zhen had left, she was still anxious that the guests at this table did not pay, but after seeing the hundred yuan left on the table, the waiter was immediately relieved.
The strange-looking guest at this table had only bought the most ordinary bread in the store, and it was only a few dollars. For 100 yuan, you can buy a lot of bread!
Even though he has money, he doesn't buy much delicious food, but he would rather waste it and throw it in the store, and I don't know what this person thinks in his heart.
The waiter cleaned up the table and left, and the man who came in naturally dragged the canvas bag out from under the chair, weighed it for a moment, and then put it on his lap, as if he was holding some treasure.
Luo Zhi had been observing the man distractedly, and it was inevitable that she would be a little distracted.
"Xiao Luo, Xiao Luo?" Dou Jiayi shouted several times, which brought Luo Zhi back to her senses.
"I'm sorry Aunt Dou, I just got distracted." Luo Zhi said apologetically.
"It's okay, I used to eat like this." Dou Jiayi handed Luo Zhi the steps without changing her face, "I just want to ask you, is there anything else you want to eat?" ”
"No need." Luo Zhi shook her head and said, "We've already eaten a lot of things just now, and we're here just to take a break, and eating is secondary." ”
And it's okay to eat the cake occasionally, but if you eat too much at once, it will inevitably be too sweet and greasy and make people choke.
Dou Jiayi nodded understandingly: "It's okay to eat less." It's a little past now, why don't we go to lunch? ”
"Still eating?!" This was not said by Luo Zhi, but by Mai Zijian, "No, Mom, you have to take us to dinner earlier, what cake shop are we going to come to?" Now that we're all full, you're just talking about eating...... Are you trying to kill us? ”
Looking at Mai Zijian's appearance of playing treasure, Luo Zhi couldn't help laughing.
Dou Jiayi glared at him: "You just eat yours, where are you talking so much?!" ”
If she had remembered, she wouldn't have come to this cake shop!
Could it be that she likes to eat cakes?
Mai Zijian retracted his neck aggrievedly, and did not forget to take a big bite on the burger he ordered.
"Aunt Dou, I think what Ah Jian said is quite reasonable, we are indeed full now, and we don't need to go to eat anymore." Luo Zhi interjected with a smile, "I still have some things to do in the afternoon, so I won't be with you." You stay and have fun, I'll have to leave in a moment. ”
The person who took Huo Zhen's canvas bag had already gone out and left, and he didn't even move the cake he ordered.
Luo Zhi was eager to know the identity of the other party, and of course she couldn't miss the opportunity.
Dou Jiayi suddenly looked disappointed.
Are you going to be separated so soon?
She still hasn't asked a lot of questions!
Mai Zijian said even more anxiously: "Didn't we say that we would play all day?" Why do you have to leave now? This is also too untrustworthy! ”
"Ah Jian!" Dou Jiayi glanced at her son disapprovingly, "Your sister Luo must have something to do before she left early, don't make noise, so as not to miss your sister Luo's business." ”
Mai Zijian was still sullen, but he didn't say anything more.
It can be seen that although Dou Jiayi seems to be weak, she is still a woman with a tough personality in her bones, and she speaks with all her words.
Luo Zhi paused and whispered to Mai Zijian: "I really have a temporary matter this time, so I have to take the first step." However, I promised to play with you all day before, so naturally it counts. Today's half day is an extra gift I promised you last time. Next time we have a chance, we'll make an appointment to play. When the time comes, I'll be sure to play with you all day, and I won't miss a minute! ”
"Really?!" Mai Zijian's eyes lit up and he asked in surprise.
If he could earn half a day more, then of course he didn't care about Luo Zhi's early departure today.
"Of course it's true!" Luo Zhi nodded categorically.
Mai Zijian's eyes rolled, Luo Zhi saw that he seemed to be playing some crooked idea again, and immediately said: "You don't have to make an inch, otherwise, I'll make up for you for half a day in the future!" ”
Mai Zijian's little abacus had to stop.
"Okay, I'll reluctantly promise you!" Mai Zijian pretended to be reserved, "Anyway, you have to remember, you still owe me a day to play!" ”
"I can't forget you!" Luo Zhi glared at Mai Zijian, "With Aunt Dou as a witness, can I still lie to you?" ”
Mai Zijian looked at his own mother, Dou Jiayi nodded with a smile and said, "Well, I'll testify to you!" Next time, you can choose a more relaxed way to play, and I will be with you when the time comes, and I will help you supervise by the way. ”
Mai Zijian didn't think about it so much, he just thought that his mother would really go out with him to play all day next time, and he was so happy that he almost didn't jump.
Luo Zhi knew in her heart that Dou Jiayi was really suspicious, and she hadn't given up the temptation of her!
She felt a little tired for a while, and she didn't know if she should take the initiative to confess to Dou Jiayi, and the two sides would go to do a paternity test or something together, so that the big stone in her heart could fall to the ground as soon as possible.
But on the other hand, Luo Zhi was still avoiding it subconsciously.
Of course, she has expectations for her biological parents, but she is also afraid that she will recognize the wrong parents.
If she and the Mai family talk about it, but find that she and the Mai family have no so-called blood relationship, she doesn't know whether she will be more fortunate or more disappointed.
