b1, parking lot, Wang Zhong stood near the elevator. As the elevator beep sounded, the elevator door opened.
"Sorry, it took me a while."
"I just arrived too!" The two naturally walked side by side towards Wang Zhong's parking space. Seeing Wang Zhong's car, Zhu Zhe, he couldn't help but be a little surprised. It really gave the impression that the Audi brand gave people the impression that the owners of the cars were basically veteran cadres or older people, especially Zhu Zhe, who worked in a hotel.
"As expected of a great writer, driving such a good car!" Compared to ordinary people, this top-end A6L is indeed good.
"The general manager of a dignified five-star hotel is probably used to seeing luxury cars costing millions. How can this car of mine be impressive?" Seeing Zhu Zhe take the initiative to open the passenger door, Wang Zhong couldn't help but have a look on his face. smile.
After getting into the car, the two of them buckled their seat belts.
"For a worker like me who doesn't even have a car and can only ride a bicycle to and from get off work, isn't this a good car?" Wang Zhong started the car and drove out slowly: "If it's just for commuting, a bicycle It’s much more practical than a car, at least you don’t have to worry about traffic jams.”
"I usually go out to buy groceries and never drive. I either walk or ride a bicycle. If I hadn't watched Statham's movie, I would have been reluctant to buy this car." Zhu Zhe couldn't bear it after hearing this. He laughed and said: "Jason Statham's Deathly Express?" Wang Zhong nodded and said: "As a man, I always yearned for blood and passion when I was young. After watching the movie, I made up my mind to make money in the future. Must buy an Audi.”
"Congratulations, you have realized your childhood dream!" While the two were chatting, the car had already driven out of the Ode to Joy community and merged into the endless traffic on the main road.
"I thought you would bring your little sisters with you."
"Zhen Zhen also has a car, how about we call them?" Zhu Zhe said with a smile.
"It's better not to. If they really come, you girls will be chatting together, and I won't be able to speak." Zhu Zhe covered his mouth and smiled.
········At noon, Wang Chong drove Zhu Zhe to a public parking lot and walked to a small restaurant in an old alley.
"Can you find this place?" Zhu Zhe was very surprised. Wang Zhongdao: "It's a coincidence. It's an old store for more than 40 years, and it has the taste of the old magic city."
"An old shop for more than 40 years?" Zhu Zhe looked forward to it: "The craftsmanship must be very good!" Wang Zhong shook his head and said: "It can't be said to be top-notch, but it's not bad either. The key is that it has the flavor of the old magic city, and the things are also good. It's relatively comprehensive and cost-effective." The store is not big, but not small either. There are about ten square tables and they are very clean. Wang Zhong and Zhu Zhe chose a seat by the window. The waiter brought the menu and Wang Zhong was Without looking at the menu, I started to name the dishes directly.
"A small Shaoxing chicken porridge, a cage of crab roe buns, a bowl of leisha yuan, four scallion pancakes, a crab roe shell, and a portion of fried chicken. Let's start with these. If there is not enough, we will order more."
"Sir, there are only two of you, can you finish ordering so much?" the waitress reminded kindly.
Wang Zhong smiled and said: "Thank you for reminding us. If we can't finish it, we can take it away! Mainly because we want to have a taste of old Shanghai."
"By the way, when we leave, please pack three more portions of lesha balls and three portions of crab roe shells."
"Yes sir!"
"Is it too much?" Zhu Zhe couldn't help but whisper.
"This place is a bit far away. It's rare for us to come here. Of course we have to taste a little of everything first." As he said this, Wang Zhong helped Zhu Zhe pour a cup of tea.
Zhu Zhe nodded and didn't dwell on the topic anymore: "You didn't even look at the menu and you come here to eat often?"
"I've only been here once!" This answer obviously exceeded Zhu Zhe's expectations. While the two were chatting, crab roe buns and crab roe shells were served first.
"Try it! The soup of the crab roe buns just out of the cage is very hot. It is best to eat it slowly with a spoon." After listening to Wang Zhong's enthusiastic introduction, Zhu Zhe did not say that he had eaten crab roe buns. After taking a sip of the soup, He couldn't help but nodded: "It's delicious!"
"In two months, the crab meat will be plump and the butter will be plump. The crab roe buns at that time will be the most delicious." Wang Zhong raised his hand to cover his mouth and whispered, "Actually, his crab roe buns can only be considered average. The most authentic ones made at home are scallion pancakes and fried pancakes." Zhu Zhe glanced at the waitress who was bringing things up from the kitchen and asked curiously: "What kind of crab roe buns are good?"
"Crab roe buns are also called crab roe soup buns. The truly top-notch crab roe buns have a skin as thin as paper, like a plump and round jade chrysanthemum with tightly wrapped dry flaps and a ready-to-open package. It gives people the impression of being as white as snow, crystal clear, and popping. Delicately tender beauty.”
"Eating is also very particular. You have to lift it gently, move it slowly, open the window first, and then eat the soup..." Wang Zhong said while giving Zhu Zhe a lesson with the crab roe soup dumpling in his hand.
Seeing Wang Zhong's serious and focused look, the smile on Zhu Zhe's face became brighter and brighter. He felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation both physically and mentally, and all those troublesome things seemed to have disappeared.
The two of them chatted while eating, and the food they ordered came one after another. The scallion pancakes and fried pancakes that Wang Zhong admired were also approved by Zhu Zhe.
"It's really delicious!" Zhu Zhe gave a thumbs up. Wang Zhong said confidently: "It's a little worse than what I made. I'll let you try it someday!" Zhu Zhe smiled even more happily: "Then I'll wait and see!" Zhu Zhe ate it with the chicken porridge. A pan-fried pancake, a scallion pancake, a fried rice ball and a crab roe shell. I rubbed my belly and said I was full.
Zhu Zhe was really shocked when he saw that everything else went into Wang Zhong's stomach, including the remaining half of the chicken porridge, and that there was nothing left.
Wang Zhong took the tissue handed over by Zhu Zhe and explained while wiping his mouth: "People who practice martial arts have a larger appetite than ordinary people."
"I understand, I understand!" Zhu Zhe said he understood, but he couldn't hide the shock in his eyes. After paying the bill, they carried the two packed pastries and held Zhu Zhe's sun umbrella together. They bought two bottles of iced mung bean paste from a stall on the roadside, then drank the mung bean paste and slowly returned to the car. .
"Do you have anything going on this afternoon?" Wang Zhong asked.
"Are there any arrangements?" Zhu Zhe looked at Wang Zhong. Wang Zhong said: "I haven't watched a movie for a long time. I wonder if Miss Zhu is willing to go and accompany Xiaosheng to the cinema?" Zhu Zhe pondered for a moment: "For the sake of the young master's invitation to dinner, I will reluctantly accompany the young master. Let’s watch a movie!” A smile immediately appeared on Wang Zhong’s face: “Then let’s go to the cinema next to our community. There are not many cars on the road now, so it will be convenient to go back later!”
"Okay!" As soon as Wang Zhong spoke, Zhu Zhe wanted to agree, but he hesitated because he was a woman and had to be reserved.
Wang Zhong's fifth-level driving skills are not limited to aircraft, cannons, tanks, and spaceships that require special skills, but also other vehicles, including donkeys, horses, and oxen.
The movie selected by Zhu Zhe is a domestic romance film. The process is a bit sadistic, but the ending of course is that the lovers finally get married.
Wang Zhong, who was sitting in the audience, also successfully held the hand of Zhu Zhe, who was sitting next to him. It was just an accidental touch at first, but Wang Zhong, who had clearly noticed that Zhu Zhe's affection for him had soared, could miss such a great opportunity and easily grabbed Zhu Zhe's hand. Zhu Zhe struggled symbolically Afterwards, Wang Zhong came over.
"If you don't like it, you can tell me!" Wang Zhong said softly. Zhu Zhe froze, tapping his lower lip with his teeth, but couldn't say any words of rejection.
Feeling his tight hands gradually relax, Wang Zhong also had a smile on his face. He was no longer satisfied with holding Zhu Zhe's hand in his. His big rough hands, covered with calluses, were as nimble as a swimming fish, and his five fingers could move easily. He slipped through Zhu Zhe's fingers, intertwined his fingers, and placed them on the middle armrest.
In the darkness, Zhu Zhe's pretty face was already red from the smoke, and his mind began to wander. From time to time, he would secretly glance at Wang Zhong, who was staring at the screen in ecstasy next to him. He didn't know what he wanted to see on Wang Zhong's face. .
The lake in my heart that had rippled many times in the past has begun to boil at this moment, almost turning into a storm, and some messy pictures have even begun to appear in my mind.
Seeing that Wang Zhong made no other excessive moves, the heart hanging in Zhu Zhe's throat slowly dropped, and his mind gradually focused on the movie.
When the movie ended, Zhu Zhe was about to get up, but Wang Zhong held him back: "Let's wait until everyone has finished leaving before leaving!" Zhu Zhe leaned back silently, only to find that Wang Zhong was staring at him with a smile on his face, and his eyes couldn't help but subconsciously Dodge: "What do you see me doing?"
"Looking at beauties under the lamp is like looking at the mountains from upstairs, the snow from the top of the city, the moon in front of the lamp, or the clouds from the boat. It's a different scene! I can't bear to take my eyes away."
"Flattery! You can coax people." Even so, Zhu Zhe did not break away from the hand that was intertwined with Wang Zhong's.
"Zhu Zhe, you look cute and good-looking now!" Zhu Zhe's ears were a little hot and his cheeks were red when Wang Zhong suddenly changed his name. Although Zhu Zhe is already thirty-two this year, after all, he is a person who has only talked to one person. The boyfriend can be said to be a woman who is extremely inexperienced in love.
In the past ten years, almost all her time has been spent in the workplace and enriching herself. Otherwise, with her vocational high school education, how could she have climbed to her current position and bought a house in Shanghai.
Zhu Zhe suppressed his shyness and turned to look at Wang Zhong: "Do you say the same thing to other women?" After all, she is a rational girl. Even if her heart is moved, she still maintains her rationality and does not sink.
Wang Zhong said: "In this world, you are the first woman I have fallen in love with, and you are also the first woman who heard my words." They were almost gone, Wang Zhong pulled Zhu Zhe to stand up: "Let's go, Don't disturb the staff to clean up." Zhu Zhe silently stood up with Wang Zhong and walked out of the cinema.
Zhu Zhe's bag was placed on his right shoulder, and his right hand was bent to support the bag. His left hand was held by Wang Zhong, their fingers interlocked, and he slowly walked out with the flow of people.
Passing by the bathroom, Zhu Zhe stopped: "I want to go to the bathroom." Wang Zhong said: "Go! Let me help you get your bag!" Zhu Zhe did not refuse, but just took a pack of tissues from the bag, and Wang Zhong said Standing at the edge of the aisle, waiting quietly with my bag in hand.
Zhu Zhe walked into the toilet. He did not go up immediately. Instead, he came to the sink, washed his hands and wiped his face. He stared at himself in the mirror for a long time, and his chest rose and fell sharply several times.
Zhu Zhe came out of the toilet and reached out to take back his bag from Wang Zhong. Wang Zhong did not refuse, but grabbed Zhu Zhe's hand again, smiled at Zhu Zhe, and pulled her into the elevator to the mall. After finding Wang Zhong's car in the underground garage, the two of them got into the front row, one on the left and the other on the right.
Zhu Zhe had just buckled his seat belt. He turned around and saw that Wang Zhong had not moved yet. He was only looking at him sideways. He couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you drive?" Wang Zhong didn't say anything. He slowly came to Zhu Zhe's side and looked at him. With Zhu Zhe's eyes, he said seriously: "I don't like to be careless. I want to tell you that I like you. In the eyes of others, you are not the most beautiful girl I know, but I like your appearance." I like your gentle personality more than your dimples." Just as Zhu Zhe was about to say something, Wang Zhong came up for a kiss, and his lips parted as soon as they touched: "I'll give you a stamp first." Zhu Zhe said a little sullenly: " You are too overbearing." Wang Zhong said, "How about we change?" Zhu Zhe was stunned by Wang Zhong's words.
"How to change it?" Wang Zhong unbuttoned Zhu Zhe's seat belt, and while sitting back in the cab, he pulled Zhu Zhe over.
"I won't resist, let you do whatever you want!" Zhu Zhe was so angry that he punched Wang Zhong in the chest several times: "You scoundrel!" Wang Zhong waited for Zhu Zhe to breathe out a few times before grabbing Zhu Zhe's hand. Looking at Zhu Zhe's eyes, he said seriously but tenderly: "Sister Zhu, what I just said is true. Since my parents passed away when I was fifteen years old, I have no relatives in this world, so I study hard. , studied hard. In college, in addition to studying, I worked part-time, and there was no time to stop except sleeping. Later, by chance, I started writing on the Internet. After graduation, I simply started writing books full-time until I bought a house and a car. Now that my life is secure, I feel a little more relaxed."
"I want to find a girlfriend, but I don't like those young, naive and ignorant girls, and I don't like those who make noises. Until I met you."
"But I'm older than you! I'm already thirty-two." Zhu Zhe said.
"Female junior, hold on to the gold! In my opinion, age is not a problem, the most important thing is the right person." Wang Zhongdao.
"We've only known each other for a few days, how do you know it's suitable?" Zhu Zhe also looked into Wang Zhong's eyes. Wang Zhongdao: "I'm not afraid of your jokes if I tell you. Since that day, I've seen you protecting your female employees, and I've seen you making beef sauce and noodles in the kitchen. After cooking the noodles, I even thought about what our children will be called in the future." Zhu Zhe Wang Zhong said: "You are blinded by the beauty you see in front of you. What you see is not the complete me." Wang Zhong said: "I know, but I understand better that no one is perfect. You have shortcomings, and so do I. Shortcomings, I also know that life is not as beautiful as what is written in the book, love is fuel, all love, all passion, as the years go by, will eventually return to mediocrity."
"In my opinion, life is about two people tolerating each other, understanding each other, and working together to solve all difficulties and troubles that will come."
"I think you're the one I'm looking for!" Listening to those sour sweet words, Zhu Zhe, who was sitting on Wang Zhong's lap, stared at Wang Zhong's flawless eyes for a while. Zhu Zhe was not as ordinary as others. Girls who are easily carried away by love will also take the initiative to lean in for a passionate long French kiss.
Instead, he said seriously: "We can try to get along! But our relationship must be kept secret for the time being!" Wang Zhong grinned and couldn't help but invite Zhu Zhe again, which made Zhu Zhe roll his eyes: "You haven't answered yet. And me!"
"I promise you, but I also have a small condition!"
"What conditions?"
"From now on, I will take you to and from get off work, and I will also pay for your breakfast and dinner!" Zhu Zhe did not agree directly, but started thinking.
Wang Zhongdao: "You have to give me a chance to show off!"
"Okay! But it must be kept secret. You cannot tell others until it is confirmed." Zhu Zhe emphasized again.
Wang Zhong smiled and said: "You have the final say!" Zhu Zhe looked at Wang Zhong and winked at the co-pilot. Wang Zhong chuckled,
"What should I do if the driver is out of gas and can't drive the car?" Zhu Zhe shook his head, stepped forward and kissed Wang Zhong on the face: "Is the gas full now?" Wang Zhong sighed: "Forget it, barely. That's enough!" After saying that, he carried the person back to the co-pilot, and even took the initiative to help Zhu Zhe fasten his seat belt.
