The Man Who Picked the Stars

Chapter 9 Reconciliation

The next day, Jung Yunho did not wake up the sleeping Kim Jaejoong.He refrigerated his cooked lunch and went to work early again.

As soon as Zheng Yunhao came home in the evening, he saw Kim Jaejoong sitting at the dinner table.Seeing him enter the door, she raised her head and smiled at him quietly.

The boy was dressed in white clothes, his hair seemed to have just been washed, it was so wet and cute.Zheng Yunhao noticed that the corners of his mouth were rising unconsciously.

Kim Jaejoong waved to Zheng Yunhao excitedly.

Zheng Yunhao approached, only to find that the table was full of meals, and the bowls and chopsticks in front of Jin Zaizhong had not been touched, as well-behaved as a little daughter-in-law waiting for her husband to come home.

Zheng Yunhao smiled at Kim Jaejoong again.

Kim Jaejoong also smiled awkwardly at Jung Yunho, but his focus was not here.As soon as Zheng Yunhao was seated, he pushed several dishes in front of Zheng Yunhao, but in fact those dishes had already been placed in front of Zheng Yunhao.

Zheng Yunhao smiled and said nothing, just looked at him.

Jin Zaizhong blushed, but after a while the vermilion faded from his clear face.Jin Zaizhong and Zheng Yunhao looked at each other generously, his ink smudged eyes were clear to the bottom.

There are some things about Jin Zaizhong that are very strange. It stands to reason that he should be sophisticated and precocious since he was a child, and he is indeed like this. Facing Zheng Yunhao who has not been together for a long time, he will also be shy, red-faced, stubborn, and arrogant.

In his black and white eyes, Zheng Yunhao couldn't see the gray area.

Zheng Yunhao thought, this is probably the reason why Jin Jaejoong looks so good when he smiles.Drive away all the shadows and express happiness wantonly.Who doesn't like a person who has a crystal-like smile and embraces the sunshine of the world in front of him?

For Zheng Yunhao who has been closed in his own world for too long, it is too necessary.

"Yesterday, I'm sorry.I shouldn't have come back so late and made you angry. 』Jin Jaejoong finished speaking in one breath, forcing himself to look directly into Zheng Yunho's eyes, trying to show his sincerity.

Zheng Yunhao shook his head, "It's okay. 』Then there is no more to say, but the eyes are still on Jin Zaizhong's delicate face.

"What's wrong? 』Jin Zaizhong touched the ends of his hair uncomfortably.

"Have you washed your hair? 』

"Um. 』

"very nice. 』

Jin Zaizhong hooked his red lips, and his eyes lit up a little.This appearance fell in Zheng Yunhao's eyes, and his mood became much brighter.

It was only then that Jin Zaizhong remembered the dishes on the table, and hurriedly called Zheng Yunhao to use his chopsticks. "I made it, you try it.Is it yummy? 』

Zheng Yunhao picked up the few dishes closest to him and chewed them in his mouth without making a sound.

"How about it? 』Jin Zaizhong urged.

Zheng Yunhao glanced at Jin Zaizhong with a half-smile, the rare narrowness in his eyes made Jin Zaizhong feel uneasy.It won't be that bad, will it?Kim Jaejoong is quite confident in his cooking skills.

"Jin Jaejoong, why don't you have a job? 』

"..." Jin Zaizhong saw that Zheng Yunhao didn't answer his question, but ridiculed his situation, and his face became cloudy.

"You cook so deliciously!Those big hotels should be rushing to hire you! 』Seeing that Jin Zaizhong's face changed, Zheng Yunhao hastily added the last sentence.But Jin Zaizhong's complexion didn't improve because of this, he was still depressed.Zheng Yunhao was a little annoyed by his slip of the tongue just now, and the table fell into a brief silence, leaving the monotonous sound of chewing.But this embarrassment lasted for a while, and Jin Jaejoong thought of something, and his expression became clear again.

"Uncle. 』

"..." I'm really not that old, it's rare for Zheng Yunhao to feel resentment towards his age.

"Uncle! Jin Zaizhong called out again, this time the voice was more urgent.

"…Um? 』Correct slowly next time... Thinking of easing the atmosphere, Zheng Yunhao still responded.

"Let me work in the library. 』Jin Zaizhong looked at Zheng Yunhao with bright eyes.

"..." It's better to keep silent.

"how?You are not happy? 』Jin Zaizhong's face changed from sunny to cloudy.

"no. 』Zheng Yunhao simply put down his bowl and chopsticks, intending to have a serious talk with Kim Jaejoong about this issue.

"Why are you doing this job? 』

"Because I want to! 』Kim Jaejoong replied as a matter of course.

"No, you don't want to. ”Zheng Yunhao stared intently at the boy's profile, “You hate this job. 』

The boy often peeped at his fingers, and he could see it. Although he didn't say a word, he also understood how strong the boy's resistance to this job was.

Zheng Yunhao is not a professional discriminator, he himself undertakes the job of funeral director, and he has suffered a lot of stares.If we evade the essence of undertaker’s work and only place its value on making a living and making money, this job will not gain the trust of others, and what we will gain is only the spurning and disdain of others.He used to struggle too, but not now.

He doesn't mind Jin Jaejoong doing this job, but he doesn't want the young man to do what he hates day after day with disgust. He won't get anything from it, and hard work will be painful.

"so what? The boy lowered his head, Zheng Yunhao couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, "Don't you have to do the job you like?How can there be so many lucky people in the world? 』

"No, in, you can. 』Zheng Yunhao comforted him.

"Okay," Jin Zaizhong frowned, and his face sank, "it's fine if you can't.Don't talk nonsense. 』

"I can find another job for you. Actually, you should still be able to study at your age..." Zheng Yunhao wanted to discuss this matter with Kim Jaejoong yesterday. The teenager can find a more relaxed job, so that he can work part time and study part time .

Zheng Yunhao remembered that in the last chat, Kim Jaejoong mentioned that he likes English and music, and that the teenager also read a lot of books, and his mind is not empty.Zheng Yunhao doesn't want Kim Jaejoong's talent to be buried in vain, he should have a wider world, instead of squatting in this dilapidated funeral home day after day, killing good times.

"No, I'm going to work in your library. 』The boy's tone was decisive.

"Ji Zhong, don't lose your temper. 』

"I'm not throwing a tantrum! 』

The young man picked up the bowl and chopsticks, this time the movement was a little bigger, and the bowl and plate slammed into each other loudly.Jin Zaizhong impatiently pushed aside the dishes that were too close together, but pushed Zheng Yunhao's bowl to the edge of the table, crumbling.Zheng Yunhao quickly caught the bowl.

Jin Zaizhong didn't raise his eyes, he tried his best to stuff the food into his mouth, and he ate without calling Zheng Yunhao to eat.

Zheng Yunhao didn't know whether to laugh or cry and looked at the angry young man, just about to speak, the young man suddenly whispered: "No one wants to be disgusted by others. 』

Zheng Yunhao was taken aback for a moment.

Jin Zaizhong tried hard to swallow the food in his mouth, as if swallowing unspeakable grievances, "You all think about how to live comfortably and live the life you want. If I was so noble, I would have starved to death long ago." .There is nothing good or bad about work, as long as people are fed, that's what I hope for.I also have self-esteem. Although I can’t survive, I know what’s good or bad. It’s not easy for me to eat and drink for nothing here. If you give me this job, I’ll pay you back with money; or I’ll leave and give you an IOU. Don't worry, I won't pay you any money. 』

Now it was Jung Yunho's turn to be speechless. Kim Jaejoong hated doing this, but he never concealed his disgust.

For teenagers who used to eat the last meal without the next meal, the most important thing is to be able to survive and eat enough.Only then did Zheng Yunhao realize this clearly.

Work is just a tool for Jin Zaijoong to eat at present, and he can't be expected to understand more.However, I blocked him with the question of whether I like it or not, which is more like an insult to Kim Jaejoong who wants to make money seriously.

Today's teenagers are quite happy to be able to live by their own efforts. Others don't have the heart to think about it, and they dare not think about it.

Zheng Yunhao suddenly felt sad and depressed.

……

There was a long silence, only the clanging of bowls and chopsticks.

"Then you go there to get used to it first, and see if you can do well." 』Finally, Zheng Yunhao spoke, his voice was slightly astringent, and he couldn't tell whether it was annoyance or regret.

Jin Zaizhongrao didn't immediately be ecstatic, but looked at Zheng Yunhao suspiciously, and his tone was a bit uncertain: "Are you serious?Did you lie to me? 』

Zheng Yunhao nodded.

Kim Jaejoong smiled, very relieved.Seeing his smile, Zheng Yunhao also heaved a sigh of relief.

"What are you standing there for?Eat vegetables, eat vegetables quickly! ’The young man who had regained his strength began to boast about his masterpiece again, ‘you eat this, it’s good...err...’

Jin Zaizhong looked embarrassed, and Zheng Yunhao looked at the table with a funny face.

"What to eat? 』Zheng Yunhao poked badly at the dish that was smashed by the annoyed boy just now, tsk tsk, he vomited so badly, all the meat in the middle was taken away. "Eat side dishes? 』

The boy's face flushed red.

"I'll make it for you again..." the young man said.

"No need," Zheng Yunhao picked up a chopsticks dish and put it in his mouth, "It's not bad to eat a big pot of vegetables once in a while." 』

"..." The bad taste of the old man.

It was already dark, and the moths by the window fluttered towards the light, and their wings printed silver flowers on the curtains.

Jin Zaizhong blinked and looked at Zheng Yunhao, who was struggling to cook, but still couldn't believe that he finally got a job.

This is called, when times come and go?

The young man propped his chin, immersed in his own thoughts, and rolled his eyes with a smile.
