Chapter 26: Breaking the Ice
"Xiao Hong! You can't beat people around! He's not a bad guy!! Wang Lina rushed into the room and picked up Wang Hong, who was punching Zuo Zheng.
"He's the bad guy! I've heard it before, they're bullying my sister! Wang Hong cried, looking at Zuo Zheng viciously.
"Shut up!" Wang Lina's willow eyebrows are upside down, quite the style of a big sister.
Seeing that the sister and brother were arguing, Zuo Zheng exhaled and said, "It's okay, the child is still young." ”
Saying this, Zuo Zheng pursed his lips, and a look of self-reproach appeared, if he had arrived earlier, this kind of thing would not have happened! Wang Lina is just an underage girl, and after experiencing this kind of thing, I don't know if she can bear it.
"I just bought some bento and fruit, but my brain was a little messy for a while, so I didn't give it to you, let's have a meal together, right?" Zuo Zheng looked at the two of them.
"We've just eaten." Wang Lina, who was holding Wang Hong, glanced slightly to the left with her eyes and said.
Goo-goo...
Suddenly, a voice sounded, like that of a man who had been hungry for a long time.
Wang Lina's face suddenly turned red.
"It's okay if you eat it, now that you're still growing up, it's good to eat more." Zuo Zheng looked at them seriously, and said, "This is also what your mother specially told me." ”
Mom?
Sure enough, hearing the word mother, Wang Lina's face softened.
"Does he know his mother?" Wang Hong stopped fighting, and he raised his face to look at Wang Lina in his sister's arms.
"I'm your mother's friend, and she can't come back for a while, so she asked me to come and take care of you for a few days." After a pause, Zuo Zheng said.
Sometimes telling the truth is not a good thing, not to mention that the other party is a minor, tell them the truth, where can these two children withstand this kind of blow.
"And when will our mother come back?" When Wang Hong heard Zuo Zheng say this, his childish and angry face suddenly eased, and his eyes looked at Zuo Zhengdao.
Zuo Zheng smiled gently, touched Wang Hong's head, and said, "Let's eat first, and I'll tell you later." ”
He naturally knew that the two of them had not had dinner, whether it was their hungry stomachs rumbling or the smell of burnt paste wafting from the kitchen, he could clearly guess it.
"Then the big brother will tell us after we eat!" Wang Hong showed an innocent appearance, and looked at Zuo Zheng with a sincere gaze full of expectations.
Seeing this, Zuo Zheng nodded and smiled gently at him.
Wang Lina, who was next to her, looked unhappy, as if she had something on her mind, this seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, although she looked relatively immature, but in fact, at this age, she had begun to have independent thoughts, and she obviously guessed something.
Mom should be long gone, right?
Perhaps thinking of this, Wang Lina's face became even more melancholy.
Zuo Zheng walked to the sofa in the living room, beckoning the two of them over. In a hurry, he put the lunch box and fruit he bought under the table. After seeing the two sitting across from each other, he picked up the food under the guest table, opened it and placed it in front of the siblings.
The smell of barbecue wafts out of the bento box, and it's tempting.
After smelling this fragrance, the sister and brother who had been hungry for a day couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
"Maybe it's a little cold, I'm really sorry." Zuo Zheng apologized.
Wang Lina raised her face to look at it once, and glanced at her head a little embarrassedly: "Thank you!" ”
"Ahh Zuo Zheng pretended to be stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Why do you say that, these are all as they should be, your mother has helped me." ”
"Really?" Wang Lina looked at him and said.
"I owe your mother a kindness, so you don't have to have a psychological burden, she helped me, so I should do what I can for you." Zuo Zheng said seriously.
Wang Liya did help him, if it wasn't for the woman who threatened him, maybe Zuo Zheng wouldn't be able to see his parents, which can be regarded as a kind of help in disguise!
"Then you're welcome." Wang Lina picked up the lunch box and ate it.
After his younger brother Wang Hong saw his sister's consent, he also ate it.
Seeing this, Zuo Zheng also opened a bento for himself.
"Big brother, I'm already eating! When did you tell me about your mother? Wang Hong suddenly put down his chopsticks and said,
It seems that this little boy is also a picky eater like he was when he was a child, and he always doesn't like to be forced to eat, so he asked.
Zuo Zheng remembered what happened when he was a child, and after more than 20 years, he was also a little embarrassed.
"Your mother may not come back until half a year later, she went abroad to do business, and she can't come back for a while, so your mother asked me to come over and take care of you for a while." Zuo Zheng thought for a while.
"Is this true?" Wang Hong's innocent eyes looked at him.
Zuo Zheng was a little sad, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do this.
Wang Hong nodded slightly, although he was not happy, but after receiving Zuo Zheng's reply, his mood was obviously much better than before.
It's just that the sister on the side is even more sad, if you look closely, you will find that this beautiful little girl, her eyes are a little red, but she shows a stubborn appearance, as if trying to control her sad emotions.
After a while, several people finished their lunches.
Zuo Zheng took away the plastic shells left by several people and threw them in the trash, and then looked at Wang Lina, he found that the girl seemed to be getting more and more sad, and she had to cry if she continued like this.
But it seems that in order not to affect his younger brother, he has been trying his best to restrain his emotions.
"Xiaohong, are you still hungry? Do you want to buy some more? Zuo Zheng walked up to Wang Hong, squatted down and smiled.
"Thank you, big brother! I'm full! Wang Hong seemed to hear that his mother was fine, and his expression was a lot happier.
Without waiting for Zuo Zheng to speak, Wang Hong said again: "A few people came to bully my sister before!" I heard my sister crying in my room! They really went too far!! ”
Wang Hong clenched his immature fists, looked at Zuo Zheng as if pleading, and said, "Big brother, can you protect my sister." When I grow up, I will repay you well. ”
Zuo Zheng took a deep breath, smiled, and said, "Don't worry!" As long as I'm here, no one can bully you anymore. ”
"Shall we pull a hook?"
"Lalagou, it will not change for a hundred years."
Wang Hong's little thumb and Zuo Zheng's little thumb pulled up, and under each other's oaths, the two made an agreement.
"It's not too late now, let's rest first." Zuo Zheng said gently.
Wang Hong nodded, and after learning that the other party was his mother's friend, there was no more hostility like before, and the relationship between the two quickly became closer.
After sending Wang Hong back to the room, Zuo Zheng walked in front of Wang Lina, at this time, she was bowing her head slightly, her hands were tightly grasping the sofa, her face was tense, and she seemed to be trying her best to restrain her emotions that were about to erupt.
"Let's go to the room and talk..."Zuo Zheng said after a moment's hesitation.
After all, if you can't control it, it's not good to disturb Wang Hong.
