Soon, the two of them chatted while eating, and the effort of a meal was gone.

As a result, until everyone finished eating, Cao Zhiqiang didn't think about what excuse to use to spend money on Teresa Teng.

Fortunately, Cao Zhiqiang's current mentality is relatively optimistic, and he doesn't force it if he can't think of it.

Anyway, according to the urine nature of this system, maybe there will be more "harem candidates" in the future, and they will be bound if they have the opportunity, but whether they want to implement it depends on the situation.

If you bind one and run one, then don't do anything yourself, you can pick up girls all day long.

But life is not just about picking up girls, and it's not just about blindly listening to the system.

In fact, Cao Zhiqiang has long found out, that is, every time the system wants you to do something, it will give a rich reward to induce you to do something.

It is true that the benefits given are really good, but if you are just doing tasks and reaping benefits, then you are really a puppet of the system.

If you want to be the master of the system, not a puppet, the key is self-control.

To know how to give up and refuse appropriately, is the only way to be a master.

Now this may be an opportunity.

"Oh, I'm full, I can't eat anymore."

Teresa Teng smiled playfully, and then said to Cao Zhiqiang: "It's really interesting to chat with you, I'm glad I met you, and I'm glad I can muster up the courage to ask you for an autograph, otherwise, I won't be able to meet you." ”

Speaking of this, Teresa Teng sighed: "Seriously, I haven't been so happy for a long time. ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled faintly and said, "Okay, I'm going to go out to do something next, what about you, what are you going to do?" ”

Teresa Teng thought for a while and said, "Well, I didn't have any plans, I originally wanted to go out for a walk, but now it's too thin, I'm a little sleepy, and I suddenly want to go back to my room to sleep, hehe." ”

In this regard, Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "Okay, then let's leave it at that." ”

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang raised his hand and summoned the waiter to come over to settle the bill.

But at this moment, Teresa Teng suddenly said, "Hey, wait, I'll come." ”

Cao Zhiqiang frowned, and deliberately looked at Deng Lijun with a straight face: "What do you mean by this?" Afraid I won't have any money to give? ”

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that." Teresa Teng hurriedly waved her hand, "Don't get me wrong!" ”

"And what do you mean?" Cao Zhiqiang continued to ask with a straight face.

Deng Lijun was stunned: "Well, I just think that as soon as we met, we rashly let you have a treat, which is not appropriate, at least, it is good for one person to pay half."

This, if you feel offended, then I apologize to you and say sorry.

I really don't mean to look down on you, really.

I'm just, I'm just familiar with the style of the United States. ”

Cao Zhiqiang suddenly smiled: "Okay, no need to explain, I understand, AA system."

You don't have to panic, I just joked with you.

Actually, I should be happy to have someone to help with the checkout.

But forget it this time.

After all, this is Xiangjiang, so it's best to follow the rules here.

Here, men and women usually eat together, and men pay the bills.

So, I'll settle the bill this time, and next time you invite me, didn't you say that before? ”

Deng Lijun smiled awkwardly: "It seems to be, hehehe, look at my brain, hehehe." ”

Cao Zhiqiang shook his head again, then decisively raised his hand and summoned the waiter to come over and settle the bill.

After the waiter came over and Cao Zhiqiang settled the bill by swiping the card, he was going to leave.

However, I don't know what the reason is, Teresa Teng actually made a ghost to follow her and walk side by side with her.

There were a lot of people before, and they were still in the restaurant, so Cao Zhiqiang didn't say anything.

When he got out of the restaurant and came to the elevator, Cao Zhiqiang couldn't help but ask, "Why are you still following me?" ”

"Forehead ......"

Deng Lijun was obviously stunned, but soon smiled and said: "No, I just came to take the elevator, and I didn't want to follow you." ”

Cao Zhiqiang thought about it too, so he nodded: "I see, I'm sorry, I'm sensitive." ”

At this moment, the elevator door suddenly opened, and then Cao Zhiqiang turned his head to look, and found that there were already many people standing in the elevator.

But the most surprising thing is one of the very familiar faces.

"Brother Cheng Long?" Cao Zhiqiang subconsciously opened his mouth wide.

Yes, at the front of the group of people in the elevator at this time, there is a young man who is not tall and looks very enthusiastic and honest, it is the honorary superstar at home and abroad, Jack Chen!

That's right, at least before Cao Zhiqiang's previous life traveled, if there was any Chinese star who could be well-known at home and abroad and won the most recognition from foreigners, I am afraid that only Cheng Long and Chen Gangsheng would be born.

Before him, although there was still a Bruce Lee, Bruce Lee passed away too early, there were too few works, and strictly speaking, the international influence was not too great.

Cheng Long is really the only one who can really represent the image of the Chinese and has international influence.

And no matter what his later reputation is, no matter how many women he has, how many romances he has, and no matter how many ridiculous things he has said, such as being half Korean or something, it can't erase his status and influence in the world.

Of course, what interests Cao Zhiqiang the most is the relationship between him and Teresa Teng.

In his previous life, Cheng Long once blew himself up and said that he had fallen in love with Teresa Teng once.

It's a pity that that's just Cheng Long's words, so I don't know if it's true or not.

Well, now it's finally a chance to verify it.

Thinking of this, the corners of Cao Zhiqiang's mouth turned up, and he stared at Cheng Long's face.

Sure enough, after Cheng Long found out that Cao Zhiqiang and Deng Lijun were stunned for a moment, he was talking and laughing with a group of good brothers behind him, but he suddenly stopped talking.

It's not just that he doesn't speak, but the group of brothers behind him, or the members of the family class, one of them is counted as one at this time, and they don't speak, and they all stare at one person.

That person is naturally not Cao Zhiqiang, but Teresa Teng.

Cao Zhiqiang turned his head slightly, and sure enough, Deng Lijun's face turned pale at this time, she bit her lip tightly, avoided looking at Cheng Long, and was still subconsciously retreating.

Obviously, the two know each other, and there is something in between.

"A-kun? Why are you here? Cheng Long suddenly walked out and said to Teresa Teng.

Deng Lijun didn't answer, just shook her head vigorously, and then found that it was not a way to retreat like this, so she suddenly ran to Cao Zhiqiang's side and directly grabbed Cao Zhiqiang's arm.

It seems that after holding Cao Zhiqiang's arm, Teresa Teng finally had a trace of courage.

After taking a deep breath, Deng Lijun faced Cheng Long's gaze, her face turned pale, and her expression was cold: "Sorry, everyone is not familiar with me, don't call me that!" ”

"Ah ......" Cheng Long opened his mouth, but finally didn't call Ah Jun out.

Soon, Cheng Long adjusted his mood, smiled reluctantly, and then looked at Cao Zhiqiang, but asked Deng Lijun in his mouth: "Hey, this posterior is a bit of a face, I don't know who you are?" ”

"He's my boyfriend." Teresa Teng said with a straight face.

"Huh? Boyfriend? Cheng Long was stunned again.

Cao Zhiqiang was also a little embarrassed, but because Teresa Teng was holding his arm at this time, and her body was leaning tightly, Cao Zhiqiang noticed the tremor on Teresa Teng's body, and after knowing that she was very nervous, he didn't demolish her.

Forget it, if you are used as a shield, you will be used as a shield, and you won't lose a piece of meat anyway.

At least, it is impossible for Cheng Long to do it to himself for this reason.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang took the initiative to smile at Cheng Long and nodded: "Hello, Cao Zhiqiang, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Cheng Long." ”

Cheng Long frowned, but he didn't stretch out his hand to hit the smiling person, plus this was still a public occasion, so he also nodded at Cao Zhiqiang: "Hello, Mr. Cao." ”

But soon, Cheng Long looked at Cao Zhiqiang suspiciously: "You, you, really, are boyfriend and girlfriend?" ”

Before Cao Zhiqiang could speak, Deng Lijun took the first step and said: "Is it okay to have nothing to do with you, does it have anything to do with you?" ”

"I, I ......"

After I was for a long time, Cheng Long was stuck again, and I didn't know what to say.

"Cuong, let's go!" Teresa Teng tightened Cao Zhiqiang's arm again, and continued to say with a straight face, "I don't want to see this annoying person again." ”

Since Deng Lijun opened her mouth like this, Cao Zhiqiang had no choice but to smile at Cheng Long, and then left with Deng Lijun.

Of course, because Cheng Long and a group of people were blocked at the elevator entrance, Cao Zhiqiang and Deng Lijun did not take the elevator, but took the stairs.

When Cao Zhiqiang and Deng Lijun came to the stairwell and walked a few steps, Deng Lijun suddenly let go of Cao Zhiqiang's arm, and then sat on the steps, covering her face with her hands and crying.

Seeing this situation, Cao Zhiqiang first subconsciously looked around.

After making sure that there were no outsiders, Cao Zhiqiang sat down next to Teresa Teng and gave him a handkerchief.

"Thank you."

After Teresa Teng thanked her, she took the handkerchief and began to wipe her eyes.

"You're welcome." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, and then continued to sit beside Deng Lijun silently.

Because Cao Zhiqiang understands that Teresa Teng at this moment does not need to be deliberately comforted, she just hopes that someone will be by her side.

In other words, Teresa Teng at this time needs someone to rely on, not anything else.

It just so happened that Cao Zhiqiang was at the right time and place and became her support.

After a while, Teresa Teng wiped away her tears, took a deep breath, and then smiled at Cao Zhiqiang reluctantly: "I, am I ugly now?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang deliberately looked at Deng Lijun, and then shook his head: "It's okay, after all, you are a big beauty, even if you cry and have a face, you are more beautiful than ordinary people, so it is not ugly, at most, it is not as good as the original laughing you." ”

Deng Lijun burst into tears and laughed: "You are really good at complimenting people." ”

Cao Zhiqiang shrugged: "I'm just telling the truth." After all, you are indeed better than ordinary women, otherwise, you would not have become a famous singer. ”

Deng Lijun pretended to be angry and glanced at Cao Zhiqiang: "I became a big singer, isn't that because I sing well?" What does it have to do with what I look like? ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled and said, "What you said is not right.

As long as it is an ordinary human being, it is inherently fond of beauty and hates ugliness.

I admit that you have a very good singing voice and great singing skills, but there are not many people who are better than you.

But none of them became the person you are now, which means that they are either not as beautiful as you, or not as lucky as you, or neither as good as you.

Therefore, I believe that your success is due to a variety of factors.

Singing voice, appearance, temperament, luck, personality, and attitude towards life and work are all indispensable.

It is the interweaving of many factors that make you who you are.

You can't just emphasize one factor and ignore the others just because you're famous now.

So in my opinion, your other factors, such as your appearance and temperament and luck character, are one of the reasons why you can succeed.

On the contrary, your singing voice, although it is also very recognizable, is not the main reason for your career success, at least not the only factor. ”

As soon as she heard this, Deng Lijun said angrily: "Ha, when you say this, my proud voice is still the least important?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Otherwise? There are so many people in this world, and there are even more people with good voices, such as Hengsha and the stars, but how many people can really pay attention to and leave their names and traces in human history?

From this point of view, success is highly contingent and contributed by a variety of factors.

Putting too much emphasis on one point and ignoring others is the greatest arrogance. ”

"It's kind of interesting." Teresa Teng nodded thoughtfully, "So, your success is the same?" Not because you're talented, it's not because you're good at singing, but because, because you're lucky? ”

"You're looking at it again." Cao Zhiqiang shook his head with a smile, "Didn't you say it, it was caused by a variety of factors, and you can't just say one or the other."

If you only say that I am lucky, you are emphasizing only this one power and ignoring my other strengths.

Of course, I'm not saying I'm unlucky, I'm pretty lucky.

However, if you only have luck and no ability, you can't seize the opportunity.

Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.

It's not just for me, it's for you as well.

It is precisely because you have talent and are willing to work hard that when the opportunity comes, you seize it in time, and then you succeed.

In the same way, even if you are famous, when the bad luck comes, you will be unlucky if you fail to resolve it in time.

In other words, we must still have a humble and reverent heart when dealing with success, and we must not be blindly arrogant and complacent. ”

Deng Lijun was stunned, and then nodded: "It makes sense, it makes sense." ”

Immediately afterwards, Deng Lijun lowered her head, covered her face with her hands and said: "Oh, I, a thirty-year-old woman, was actually taught a lesson by a man who is not yet twenty years old, it's really embarrassing, it's too embarrassing." ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled and did not continue to speak.

Suddenly, Deng Lijun raised her head violently and looked at Cao Zhiqiang with a serious face: "Wait, you didn't say that on purpose just now, just to change the topic and make me stop thinking about that person, right?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang blinked, smiled again, and did not speak.

"Hah, you really are!" Deng Lijun said angrily, "You men are all the same, you like to deceive people!" ”

Cao Zhiqiang touched his nose, and didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only continue to shut up.

Anyway, he could see that at this moment, he didn't have to say anything more.

Just wait for Teresa Teng to vent and complain.

When she finishes venting, complaining, and getting angry, everything will be fine.

Alas, I'm really still too soft-hearted to see a woman sad. (End of chapter)
