food court
In the hot pot restaurant on the first floor
Zeng Qi, who was wearing a suit and ties, found the target he wanted as soon as he walked in. After all, a pair of handsome men and beautiful women would be particularly eye-catching even if they were thrown into the crowd.
Tan and his party were holding a piece of beef with chopsticks and stewing it, while Tan Jiajia was counting down: "...5, 4, 3, 2, 1 is up, brother, pick it up quickly."
After receiving permission, Tan and his party immediately picked up the cooked beef, dipped it in the prepared sauce, and put it in their mouths. They praised it profusely: "Sister, this is really delicious."
"I'm not lying to you." Tan Jiajia smiled like a crescent with her peach blossom eyes.
"Try this again..."
Tan Yi Xing's eyes suddenly turned to a standing figure on the side, and asked happily: "Ah! You are not the one who was... Zeng... Zeng... Zeng."
"Zeng Qi." A familiar voice sounded behind Tan Jiajia. Tan Jiajia was startled and turned around to see who it was if it wasn't Zeng Qi who was supposed to be on a business trip out of town.
She immediately stood up and asked: "Mr. Zeng, why are you here?... Well, I submitted my leave form yesterday, and you approved it..." The latter sentence was specially added when she saw Zeng Qi staring at the chopsticks in her hand. .
Zeng Qi didn't say anything, just sat on the stool next to Tan Jiajia and looked at Tan Jiajia.
"Mr. Zeng, what are you doing?" Tan Jiajia was a little confused.
Zeng Qi looked as usual and replied: "I just got off the plane and haven't had time to eat yet. You happen to be here and have eaten so many of my meals. It shouldn't be a big deal if I eat yours." This is true. He did. As soon as she got off the plane, she was invited over by Zheng Muyue.
Haha... Tan Jiajia sneered in her heart, the airport is several kilometers away from here, bragging is not a draft, I haven't settled the last debt with you yet.
When Tan and his party heard what the other party said, they put down their chopsticks and said:
"Mom, little Jiajia, go get a pair of bowls and chopsticks for your boss. Even if you order some food, it won't be enough. Let me know, I am Jiajia's brother, my name is Tan Yixing, just call me Brother Xing."
This latter sentence was naturally spoken to Zeng Qi.
Zeng Qi also smiled and nodded: "Zeng Qi, we have met before."
"I know, it's just the time I came here." Tan Yixing slurred his words while eating meat.
"Hey, hey, Mr. Zeng is older than you." Tan Jiajia said from the side.
Tan Yixing put down his chopsticks again and said seriously: "Although I am younger than Mr. Zeng, my experience is much higher than Mr. Zeng."
"A poor Taoist priest who came from a Taoist temple in the countryside. A month ago, someone I had never even seen on TV was talking to me about his experience. Humph..." Tan Jiajia immediately exposed the other person mercilessly.
Seeing the two brothers and sisters bickering, Zeng Qi smiled faintly, and then said helplessly to Tan Jiajia on the side: "Didn't you hear what brother said?" I don't know if it was intentional, but he omitted the lines.
Tan Jiajia snorted again and then stood up.
Tan and his party looked at Tan Jiajia's leaving figure and said to Zeng Qi: "Mr. Zeng is laughing at me, my sister has a bad temper. She must have caused you a lot of trouble on weekdays."
When Zeng Qi heard this, he said: "It's not a problem. I quite like her like this."
oh? ! Tan Yixing's ears suddenly stood up, and he kept thinking in his heart: Is this guy interested in Jiajia? Let me think about it...Jia Jia seemed to have come out of this guy's house the day I started coming.
He had received an order to ensure her safety, but... her chastity and safety should not be under his control.
Thinking of this, Tan Yixing laughed again and said to Zeng Qi: "Indeed, Jiajia is indeed quite lovable."
………
When Tan Jiajia came back with a pair of bowls and chopsticks, she saw two men talking happily.
"I'm back."
Tan Jiajia handed the bowls and chopsticks to Zeng Qi and said, "We have already ordered and they will be served later. What were you talking about just now? You are so happy."
Let’s talk about your life-long events. Tan Yi Xing thought silently in his heart. But he didn't show it on his face and said: "Of course we are talking about topics between men ~ What do you little girl know?"
"Haha," Tan Jiajia opened the disposable chopsticks and handed them to Zeng Qi. The latter naturally took over, and the two of them had a perfect tacit understanding, as if they had practiced countless times, and Tan and his party were stunned for a moment.
"Mr. Zeng is a boss worth tens of millions, and he has the hearts of thousands of girls in C City. And you?!" Tan Jiajia paused, looked at him with a condescending expression and continued, "You are a dead otaku, and all your belongings plus He can't stand up more than fifty. You want me to talk about men with Mr. Zeng?"
I'm afraid the only thing you can talk about is which car the old driver drives... She didn't say this.
Tsk... Tan Yixing curled his lips and said nothing, thinking in his mind, I am a thousand-year-old monster, and I have become brothers with this yellow-haired boy for the sake of your little girl's movie. I haven't said anything yet, but you are talking nonsense.
He shook his head and said to Zeng Qi: "Mr. Zeng, ignore her, let's eat vegetables. Women have long hair but short knowledge."
"A thousand cups of wine is too little to meet a close friend, and half a sentence is too much to say nothing." Zeng Qi also spoke out to support and continued talking with Tan and his party. His whole person looked calm and elegant, making people feel like spring breeze.
Tan Jiajia rolled her eyes inwardly and thought to herself: This irritable dragon is pretending here again, and only someone as stupid as his brother can be deceived by his appearance.
During a meal, the three people at the table all had different thoughts...
the other side
Zheng family
"Second Miss is back?"
Zheng Muyue walked into the door from the courtyard, and Liu Ma immediately stepped forward to say hello.
"Yeah." Zheng Muyue responded lazily, and walked upstairs listlessly. She had just tidied herself up briefly, and now she looked a little haggard.
"Second Miss, if the master asks you to come back, go to the study to find him."
"I know." A weak voice came.
…………
Second floor, study room
Zheng Muyue followed Liu's mother's instructions and came to the door of Zheng Huo's study. She knocked gently and then pushed the door open and entered.
"Dad, are you looking for me?"
Zheng Huo was writing calligraphy on a chopping board in the study. When he heard Zheng Muyue's voice, he raised his head and said, "Daughter... come and see dad... what's going on with you?!"
Zheng Huo's first words were in a calm tone, but after seeing Zheng Muyue, his tone turned into doubts and inquiries. Zheng Muyue's slightly red and swollen eyes were naturally unable to hide from Zheng Huo's gaze. He thought of a possibility, his face darkened, and he asked:
"Are you going to see Zeng Qi again?"
"Um."
"Didn't I tell you not to look for him again!!!" After receiving the expected answer, Zheng Huo became furious and waved his hand, causing all the things on the chopping board to roll to the ground, making a loud noise. Come.
"But dad," Zheng Muyue took a few steps forward and shouted with a cry, "why? He is the person I like. I don't want to marry anyone else, I just want to marry him. Why can't he just do it?"
"Why?" Zheng Huo became even more angry when he heard what she said, "Let me tell you why! Why do you think something happened to the Zheng family this time! It was him who was behind it. He wanted to bring down the Zheng family. You What do you think it is for? He is just an ambitious person. You are a member of the Zheng family and have the blood of the Zheng family on your body. How can he have any affection for you! "
"No...this is not true..." Zheng Muyue covered her mouth when she heard this answer, her face full of disbelief.
"Alas..." Zheng Huo sighed and looked decadent, as if he had aged a few years. His emotions slowly calmed down and he said slowly: "Yue'er, this is all true. It is impossible for you and Zeng Qi to be together. Yes, I didn’t believe it at first. On the surface, you look gentle, but on the inside, you have the heart of a tiger and a wolf." He paused again, "If you have the ability, you can just make Zeng Qigao look at you, but now people I have no intention of you at all. If you continue to pester him like this and make him unhappy, then the Zheng family will really be doomed. You should understand the meaning of lips dying and teeth falling apart. "
"But I'm not willing to give in, dad." Zheng Muyue said unwillingly. "I am your daughter, can you bear to see your daughter fall into the fire pit?"
"It's because you are my daughter that you need to understand more!" Zheng Huo's voice rose a little higher, "You, like your brother, are here to collect debts. I have already decided on this matter. It is useless to say more. What has happened recently Don't go out for a while, and reflect on yourself at home." Zheng Huo said as he left the study.
"Dad!" Zheng Muyue shouted unwillingly, but Zheng Huo didn't stop at all and disappeared outside the study...
