Wind Chaser: Rebirth in the 18th Year of the Republic of China
Chapter 20 We Should Be Self-reliant
Just abandon her like that?
But she had been on many blind dates before, so she could definitely handle it even if she was alone.
"What's that person's name? What does he look like? Brother, you can't let me guess, right?"
It was dinner time, and there were not too many people eating there. Some people chose to eat alone or wait for others, and it would be bad for her to disturb them rashly.
"Oh, yes, I forgot to mention it. There is a rose on the table. I believe it won't be difficult for you to get close to it."
Shen Tunan did not reveal the man's identity, which suddenly made Shen Jinzhen interested.
Could it be that it was really the person she knew, or the person she thought it was?
"Okay, then I'll try to stay longer this time."
She never gives face to people or things she doesn't like, even if they are introduced by her brother.
"See you."
Shen Tunan had already anticipated what his sister would say, but he didn't care too much. He drove slowly away.
After watching his brother leave, Jinzhen pushed the door and walked into the restaurant. There was a violinist playing a soothing piece of music inside, and several seats by the window were occupied.
"Hello, ma'am, how many people are you?"
The waiter in the store saw Shen Jinzhen come in and came forward to serve him politely.
Jinzhen took off his gloves and smiled politely at the waiter, "I'm looking for someone. He has made a reservation."
After hearing this, the waiter gestured for her to come in and did not follow her any further.
Shen Jinzhen walked forward a few steps in her high heels and happened to see a man in a suit in the corner with a rose on the table.
It turns out to be here.
She walked forward and greeted the person sitting there with a smile, "Hello, I'm Shen Jinzhen."
The people sitting there were also surprised to see her coming, and showed an awkward but polite smile on their faces, "Ms. Shen, are you here to see me?"
Shen Jinzhen's smile froze. She didn't expect that the person sitting in front of her was Captain Lin. Based on her brother's impression of that man, he probably wouldn't introduce such a person to her.
"I probably found the wrong person. My brother told me to find someone wearing a rose."
She glanced to the side and saw another person not far away who also had roses on his table.
I never thought that men nowadays like to be romantic. She should be more cautious.
"I would also like to invite Miss Shen to dinner. If Miss Shen doesn't mind inviting the wrong person, I can make the mistake."
The woman in front of him gave him a different feeling from others, like a flower from the high mountains, and also like a unique fairy on earth.
He didn't mind treating this small mistake as the beginning of a wonderful fate between the two of them. If he could gain Miss Shen's favor, he would be able to have a smoother career.
At this time, Shen Jinzhen no longer wanted to deal with the person in front of her. She smiled again, said thank you politely, and said that it was inconvenient to refuse the appointment.
After all, the other party was the one her brother had arranged for her to date, and the Captain Lin in front of her was not so charming that she could actively turn down the date.
She apologized again and turned to walk towards the person wearing the rose on the other side.
"Hello, I'm Shen Jinzhen."
This time she did not find the wrong person, but the person in front of her was not the one she had expected.
The other party was a little excited when he saw her, "Jinzhen, do you still remember me? We were classmates in elementary school. I am Zheng Hui."
When he heard his name, Shen Jinzhen dug out this person from the depths of his memory.
The two were indeed elementary school classmates. At that time, she was like a tomboy. She didn't like jumping rope with dolls, but liked climbing trees and catching crickets the most, which gave her father and brother a headache for a long time.
At that time, Zheng Hui was one of her little followers, and after school every time, he would follow her and go on adventures together.
Her impression of Zheng Hui was still that of a short, fat boy, but she didn't expect that he has grown so tall now, with a slicked-back hair and wearing a well-fitting suit. He is quite different now.
Seeing that Jin Zhen also noticed his appearance, he couldn't help but talk about how much effort he had put into this date.
"My family wanted to introduce me to a blind date. I was very opposed to it at the time, but when I heard it was you, I agreed. After all, we have played together since childhood and we are neighbors, so I don't mind."
Zheng Hui was a little nervous, and his voice became shy. Shen Jinzhen felt upset. If it weren't for their past friendship, she would have found an excuse to leave.
"Well, so that's how it is. That's great. Mr. Zheng can go out more often when he has time. There are many outstanding girls out there."
What she meant was that the two of them were not suitable for each other and it would be best for them to continue being classmates.
Zheng Hui misunderstood Shen Jinzhen's meaning. He thought Shen Jinzhen despised him for not doing well, so he quickly said, "I work in a securities company and can make 40 yuan a month. Although it's not as much as your brother now, it will increase slowly."
"I'm not worrying about that. We haven't seen each other for many years. It's better to get to know each other slowly, isn't it?"
Shen Jinzhen looked out the window. There were passers-by on the road, and poor people pulling rickshaws to make a living, but she rarely saw people from her organization. Most of the people she rejected were because they shared the same beliefs as her brother.
People with different beliefs cannot work together. She can have different beliefs from her brother, but she cannot have any disagreements with her future husband. Such days are destined to be painful.
“Are you worried about the future of our country?”
Zheng Hui saw Shen Jinzhen looking out the window and couldn't help asking another question. This made Jinzhen look stunned. Could it be that -
"We are just ordinary people who live a better life. Does Mr. Zheng have a strategy for governing the country?"
This was originally a joke and a test from her, but Zheng Hui nodded unexpectedly, but felt a little ashamed, "I have some ideas, but they seem unrealistic."
"All ears."
Shen Jinzhen became interested. He didn't expect that his old classmate, whom he hadn't seen for many years, was also worried about the future of the country.
"Shanghai is relatively peaceful now, but there are already several places in our country fighting the enemy in full swing, but many people are just watching coldly, thinking that it has nothing to do with them. I think this is wrong. Our country is being invaded, and we cannot say it has nothing to do with us just because the war does not affect here."
Zheng Hui was somewhat indignant. When he was at work, he always heard his colleagues and others discussing this kind of thing. Although the war took place in a different place and their leaders were different, they were all in the same country after all. How could they be so selfish?
Shen Jinzhen nodded and showed more appreciation for Zheng Hui.
As the country faces crisis, we young people should do the following. We cannot turn a blind eye to the oppression suffered by our compatriots just because there are no enemies invading.
