You always have to pay back when you come out to hang out
Chapter 43: The Joke of Fate
The café has a glass side door at a fork in a busy street.The seats in the glass-door shed are the most sought-after, because you can see the blue sky and tall buildings when you look up, and the lively street scene when you look down.
But obviously the lady didn't want to sit in such a place without any concealment, so Zhong Qi followed her all the way to the back room.
The back room was full of people, and there was a strong fragrance. Although there were so many people sitting, it didn't feel noisy and crowded at all.There is a small turning staircase on the left hand side of entering the door. They went up to the second floor. There are some paintings hanging on the walls along the stairs, but Zhong Qi is not in the mood to enjoy the paintings at the moment.
Go upstairs and enter a small coffee room.After the two sat down facing each other, the lady ordered coffee, and she didn't ask Zhong Qi what he wanted to drink, so she ordered the same one for him as herself.The coffee was served soon, and the lady seemed very satisfied. She looked around and looked around quietly.After confirming the privacy, he took out a bulging envelope from his handbag and pushed it in front of Zhong Qi.
Zhong Qi glanced at the envelope lightly, and he could guess what was inside without opening it.
"Don't you want it? The money is enough to support you through college. If you want to study abroad, I can do it for you." Seeing that Zhong Qi didn't accept it, the lady was a little surprised.Before she came to find Zhong Qi, she had already inquired about his situation clearly. Although she made some money by answering the advertisement not long ago, the money was not enough to make him live comfortably.Could it be... The lady couldn't help but frowned. Of course, the money couldn't be compared with her husband's property, but she couldn't let Zhong Qi go back and compete with Xiao Wei for the family property.
"No, thank you for your kindness. I cannot accept these..." Zhong Qi pushed the envelope back to her.Although he really needs money, he cannot ask for this kind of money.
"Then what do you want?" There was some displeasure in her voice.
Zhong Qi lowered his head and looked at the coffee. After a while, he said: "If it was when I was very young, I would be very happy for you to come and see me. But now... I don't know what kind of mood you are in, what are you talking about?" Status offered me this money, so, sorry, I can't take it."
The lady did not speak. She really did not dare to say that she gave him the money as a mother. She could not recognize this son.
"Don't you know the latest news?" Knowing that Zhong Qi had no intention of fighting for property, she was relieved from the bottom of her heart.
news?Zhong Qi seldom pays attention to those things. His life is very simple, and only revolves around three things: study, part-time job, and Zhao Qinglang.However, thinking of that afternoon when the cold wind blew on the rooftop for a long time, he finally knew why this woman came to him suddenly. "I have nothing to do with the person surnamed Xiao. My surname is Zhong. It doesn't matter if it's my own. The grace of upbringing is greater than heaven. I am grandma's grandson. This will never change..."
Zhong Qi's words were somewhat beyond her expectations. The woman in the Zhong family, that is, her former sister-in-law, was not a cheap lamp. After the old lady died, that woman kicked Zhong Qi out of the Zhong family. .Although I don't have much affection for this child, no matter how close I am to him, it's still a piece of meat that fell from my body.
"Well, I'll send you to study abroad, which is better than staying in China. I don't care what you want, as long as you don't disturb the life of the Xiao family." Maybe this is really a good way.
"I...I can't go abroad."
"Why?!"
"No reason……"
Zhong Qi didn't want to tell her that he didn't want to go abroad just because of one person.If Zhao Qinglang hadn't appeared in his world, then he would have agreed to go abroad without hesitation, but what about now?Even if Zhong Qi didn't want to admit it, he knew exactly what position Zhao Qinglang held in his heart.
It's very important, so important that he is willing to trade his own future and future...
Seeing that Zhong Qi was unwilling to speak, she did not press her further.Thinking of what was said in the news, she prayed in her heart that it would not be true.But even if it was true, she has no position to accuse him, after all, she abandoned him, her only child for a promise.
"Did I cause you trouble?" Zhong Qi asked her.
"Huh?" She looked at the beautiful boy in front of her in surprise, looking at his face, she couldn't help but think of herself when she was young.
"If I cause you trouble, I can clarify to them, and I can tell them that we had no relationship before." After all, it was my arrival that disrupted her life, and I must bear the responsibility that should be borne.
When she heard the words, her eyes lit up, and her joy was beyond words, "Qiqi, you didn't lie to me, did you? Are you really willing to clarify?" If Zhong Qi is willing to clarify the relationship with the outside world, then no one will make a fuss about it for a long time After all, the Xiao family's property is considerable. If it is really a parent-child relationship, only a fool would give up those.
"Hmm..." It was the first time Zhong Qi saw her smile from the heart after seeing each other for such a long time.For a moment, he suddenly felt sad...
She stood up and called someone. After hanging up the phone, she said to Zhong Qi happily: "There will be a reporter coming later. You don't need to say anything. I said, you should just That's it. No problem?"
"Yeah." Zhong Qi nodded.
When leaving the cafe, the cup of coffee on the table was still untouched.Before Zhong Qi followed her far, he was surrounded by a group of reporters.She was always smiling and patiently answered every question they had.When a reporter asked about her relationship with Zhong Qi, she generously took Zhong Qi's arm and asked with a smile, "Do you think we look alike?"
"picture!"
She smiled and said: "Yeah, I was also taken aback when I saw the commercial. If it wasn't for my age, I would have really wondered if I had accepted the commercial while sleepwalking. But, It is very interesting to speculate about our relationship from the outside world. I also hope to have such a good son, but... I am afraid that I will disappoint everyone."
The reporter was still relentless, and Zhong Qi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "I'm actually very grateful to this lady..."
"The impression of my mother is very vague to me. I have been imagining the appearance of my mother in my mind. Although I don't know if my mother looks like this, this lady has given me a clear image. Thank you!" Zhong Qi continued, "I'm really sorry if I caused gossip to her because of me. Here, I want to solemnly state one thing. This lady and I are really not the parent-child relationship you guessed."
It's finally time to end...
Zhong Qi didn't know how he got home, he only knew that he was very sad, but this time, he was very strong and didn't shed a single tear.Being alone in one's home is like being abandoned by the whole world.He misses Zhao Qinglang very much, misses it, misses it...
He ran to the phone booth in one breath, wanting to make a call to Zhao Qinglang, but the hand that lifted the phone dropped before dialing the number.
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, he can't make Zhao Qinglang worry.
Walking out of the phone booth silently, looking at the street full of people coming and going, he suddenly lost his focus, didn't know what to do, and didn't know where to go.
"Zhong Qi!" Suddenly he heard someone calling himself, his heart skipped a beat, he turned around with a smile, only to see Gao Yi standing three meters away from him.Zhong Qi was very disappointed, he really had fantasies and saw Zhao Qinglang when he turned around.But reality is never as beautiful as fantasy, isn't it?
"Senior, why did you come to S City?" Shouldn't Gao Yi be at home for the New Year at this time?
"I'll come and see you." Gao Yi didn't hide his purpose, he knew that Zhong Qi stayed here, Gao Yi didn't know what it was like to spend the New Year alone.But he knew that Zhong Qi would definitely need someone to accompany him, and it happened that his parents were going on a trip, so this should be a good opportunity!
"..." It would be a lie to say that he is not moved, Zhong Qi is very happy that someone will remember him.
"I'm the only one left in my family, so I want to come and celebrate the New Year with you!" Gao Yi smiled at Zhong Qi, "Let's go, let's go and see what we want to buy for the New Year together!"
Before Zhong Qi could react, Gao Yi dragged him away.Along the way, Gao Yi was talking about some interesting things about their school. Zhong Qi listened and responded with a few words from time to time.Zhong Qi has always respected Gao Yi.
"I saw your ad, it's very beautiful. My classmates also said it was good, and many people bought that perfume because of it." Gao Yi pushed his eyes.
"Hehe..." Zhong Qi smiled and answered.
"Zhong Qi, I... Forget it, I'll talk about it after the new year. I don't want to put too much pressure on you, and you don't need to, understand?" Gao Yi also knows the relationship between Zhong Qi and Zhao Qinglang, these In [-], he, an outsider, saw it clearly than anyone else.However, he is still unwilling to give up easily, after all Zhong Qi is someone he has liked for many years.
But obviously the lady didn't want to sit in such a place without any concealment, so Zhong Qi followed her all the way to the back room.
The back room was full of people, and there was a strong fragrance. Although there were so many people sitting, it didn't feel noisy and crowded at all.There is a small turning staircase on the left hand side of entering the door. They went up to the second floor.
