Qiao An wanted to show off her "friendship" with Zhou Jinheng in front of the young man, but Zhou Jinheng hurriedly avoided him in a panic. Before the young man looked up, Zhou Jinheng stuffed the other party's head into his coat, and said impatiently and panickedly: "Baby is cold!" Come on, look at your face is red, let's go home quickly. The house is warm."
Every time the boy wanted to raise his head, he pushed him into his pocket. Obviously, Zhou Jinheng didn't want him to know what relationship he had with Qiao An, or in other words, he didn't want the boy to know that this "Joan" in front of him was his first love that he was jealous of.
Otherwise, with the temper of a teenager, it would be strange not to tear them up on the spot. This is where Zhou Jinheng felt guilty.
Qiao An was startled, and just about to rush over in two or three steps, Zhou Jinheng escorted the boy into the passenger cab, then closed the door and walked away.
Qiao An was so angry that she immediately understood what Zhou Jinheng was thinking. The other party was very concerned about the young man's feelings, and didn't want them to meet intentionally. He was clearly Zhou Jinheng's first love, Bai Yueguang, but in front of the young man, he was more like a mistress who didn't even have the qualifications to show off in front of the young man.
How could Joan not be angry
Just when Chen Ke got a call, the sweet female voice was full of deep concern, "Qiao An, are you off work? I cooked a pot of abalone today, and I brought it to Uncle Qiao's house. When you get off work, we two Shall we have dinner together at home?"
Qiao An was in a fit of anger, and when he heard the words, he naturally said coldly: "What should I eat? I have to work overtime and I don't have time to eat, so you can keep it for yourself!" He didn't like Chen Ke at first, but his parents liked it, and Chen Ke couldn't eat anymore. Especially to please the elders, every time the other party comes over, the elders of the Qiao family will urge him to get married quickly, which puts a lot of pressure on Qiao An, today Chen Ke even picks him to call when Zhou Jinheng ignores him and is in a bad mood , It's almost hit the gun, how could Joan be happy
Regardless of whether the other party is a woman or not, after giving the other party a hard time, he hung up the phone with a bang, leaving only a beeping busy tone.
She was kind and caring but was reprimanded for no reason, especially Joanna's perfunctory and anger almost rushed out of the screen in her words, startling Chen Ke who was cooking, and she was stunned on the ground holding a spoon.
After a long while, she bit her lip and her eyes flickered slightly.
On the other side, Zhou Jinheng, who met Qiao An, was not in such a calm mood. He lost his mind several times while driving. Yin Minglu sneered in his heart, looked out the window and said, "Jinheng, why are you driving? It's slower than the bicycle next to you."
As soon as the boy finished speaking, the bicycle of the big mother in the next lane slowly overtook them, and a fat little boy in the back seat made a "shoot" gesture to them, giggling laugh.
Zhou Jinheng's face was full of embarrassment, and then he came back to his senses.
As soon as he got home, he held down the vibrating cell phone in his coat, and said to Yin Minglu, "Baby, I have a lot of documents to deal with today, and I don't have time to cook, so you can order takeaway." After finishing speaking, he was taking off his shoes When the teenager had any reaction, he pretended that he was cold, and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
After entering the bathroom, he took out his mobile phone, and it was indeed full of Joan's missed calls and text messages, which were still vibrating continuously—
"Jinheng, what's wrong with you? An old friend greeted you, and you left without looking back. It's so sad. So you don't want me to go back to China so much?"
"I just want to invite you out for a drink. Could it be that your partner doesn't even allow this request? Then he must be too jealous, Jinheng, you are really happy to be with such a possessive little boy ?"
"I always thought you'd spend your life with a mature man. That boy was lucky."
"I heard from Qu Yan that you are going to get married next year, and you still want to have a child with the other party. I just want to meet you and hand over the gift for the child to you. After all, I am also the uncle of the child. Thinking about that The unborn child may look a bit like you, I feel happy and cute, and I really want to see him grow up."
"Did I do something wrong? You don't even want to meet me. Is it true that our good brothers can't go back to the past?"
…
…
"At seven o'clock in the evening the day after tomorrow, let's meet alone at the old place, have a last indulgent drink, and I will never pester you again. I'm sorry that I am too attached to you, too stalking, and forget the proportion between brothers I wish you all the best of luck.”
No, Joan, you are right, he is wrong.
The mirror in the bathroom clearly revealed everything. In the steaming heat, the man was pulling his black hair tangled, his face full of pain and struggle. It is true that he loves Little Rose, but Joan is also something he cannot let go of and will never forget. Compared with the little rose he met later, he and Joan had spent nearly ten years together, and the other party brought him many good memories in his youth.
Especially Qiao An said so humbly that it was the last time we met. He Zhou Jinheng didn't want to be unable to be the last brother with Qiao An because of the feelings he couldn't restrain from the bottom of his heart...
Talking to the boy about handling official business, in fact, Zhou Jinheng's eyes were fixed on the computer screen all the time, and he couldn't see a single line. It is undeniable that Joan's words touched his heart.
Maybe it's nothing to meet...
They may drink wine with each other and talk about the memories of the past, like a pair of familiar old friends, he imagined many, many scenes: Joan might be able to come to his wedding with Little Rose, and he took that relationship with him. A somewhat similar child was held in front of Joan, and Joan might love that child as his own. When the child grows up in the future, he may affectionately call Qiao An his uncle, but they are no longer young and handsome as they get older, but they can still sit together drinking and chatting. After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Jinheng's face showed a bit of a smile, and he felt that this way of getting along with each other was also romantic like a steady flow of water.
That night, Zhou Jinheng suddenly didn't dare to look at the young man's face. The young man's face was obviously very good-looking. He said, "Ming Lu, I...I have something to do the day after tomorrow, so I can't take you to see my parents." They agreed early on, After get off work on Friday, he took the boy back to Zhou's old house to meet Zhou Jinheng's parents.
The Zhou family's parents had seen the boy's photo before, knew the boy's personality, and had no special emotion or opinion, and their attitude was neither sad nor happy. But in the previous life, after the original owner was escaped from marriage, the Zhou family's parents first reacted to defend Zhou Jinheng, accusing the original owner of being unattractive and looking down on Zhou Jinheng, Yin Minglu might not want to see them.
But the domestic tradition is like this. Since the two want to get married, they must meet their parents, so there is this banquet. Zhou Jinheng hadn't realized how abrupt and abnormal his behavior was when he suddenly changed his name from Baby's name.
He also didn't think about the boy, and he agreed to take him to meet his difficult parents. The first time he met his parents was so solemn, but suddenly changed his mind when things came to an end. Would his parents have any objections? The Zhou family's parents naturally wouldn't hate their children, but they would definitely have problems with the boy.
What could be more important than taking a teenager to meet his parents? Zhou Jinheng didn't think of an excuse for a while.
"Are you on a business trip?" The young man answered the phone considerately, and even made an excuse for the man, "I know you are busy with work, but I didn't expect you to be busy on weekends now." As the young man said, he took a few steps forward and entangled the man arms, and her tender little face pressed against his neck. Zhou Jinheng would have been flattered by this rare intimacy normally, but at this time, his body stiffened for a moment, and he hugged her back slowly.
"Yes... yes... I can't do anything about the sudden notification." Zhou Jinheng forced a smile tired from official duties, but subconsciously dodged those charming peach eyes.
"How long will it take?" The boy asked again, rubbing his cheek against the man's hand coquettishly, uttering childish love words: "I will miss you after a long time."
Such a cute little rose hasn't appeared for a long time, Zhou Jinheng's eyes blurred for a moment, if Qiao An hadn't appeared, he would definitely hold her tightly in his arms, but now the little rose is acting coquettishly, his heart The heavier the burden, the stiffer his body was like a stone, and the breathless guilt filled his chest.
"Should be back on Sunday." Zhou Jinheng subconsciously continued to compose it. After all, he said he was going on a business trip. It was impossible to have a drink on Friday, so he should be back right away.
"Are you going by plane? Do you want me to drive you that day?" The young man said considerately. This was the first time since the other party's temperament changed drastically that he wanted to be Zhou Jinheng's driver. Unexpectedly, as long as she showed weakness and said that she was busy with work, the fiery little rose would actually turn into soft fingers. Zhou Jinheng felt indescribable. It's a pity that such a benefit happened when he was racking his brains to make up a lie. Zhou Jinheng had no luck to accept it, so he could only refuse it. He said: "No, no, the secretary will take me to the airport that day, you don't need to come here specially."
To tell a lie, there must be countless lies to cover it up. Zhou Jinheng hadn't noticed that his refusal was a bit deliberate.
"It's a pity that the first time I saw your parents, it was a mess. I had specially prepared gifts for them, so I can only bring them next time." The boy pouted childishly, with regret written all over his face, as if it was true I really want to see my uncle and aunt.
"It's okay. They are in the capital and they are in good health. We can see each other anytime we want next time." Zhou Jinheng comforted the young man with an extremely gentle tone, like every man who has done wrong or is about to do wrong.
Oh, so your parents can meet whenever they want, and it doesn't matter if they meet again in the future, but isn't it Joan's invitation? It really is a dog man. The young man who had already seen the man's performance in full view, resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and continued to show loss and frustration on his face, like a child who couldn't get candy.
Seeing the young boy's dejected face, Zhou Jinheng felt pity, but the lie had already been told, so he could only pretend not to see it, and didn't even dare to look back.
The juvenile's empathy, and the burden of guilt when making up lies, completely dispelled Zhou Jinheng's excitement about going to the appointment at the beginning.
He struggled in his heart, feeling sorry for the boy.
After receiving the text message agreeing to the appointment, Qiao An made up her mind that Zhou Jinheng still had himself in his heart. Originally, he didn't have a good brother to assist him, so he had a lot of trouble asking Zhou Jinheng. Even those brothers told him to find someone else if he wanted to find the benefactor Kaizi. Brother Zhou has a family, and he is a good match with his sister-in-law. They advised him not to do the kind of thing that pries people's corners and strikes lightning. Carelessly directly pierced Qiao An's mind, which made Qiao An feel so embarrassed that he could only do it by himself.
Fortunately, fortunately, Zhou Jinheng can't forget his old feelings for him, so he won't let him down. Thinking of what would happen that night, Qiao An set out to order his own "battle suit" online. After all, it was his first time trying to seduce a man, and he was not sure what taste a man liked in bed.
Time soon came to the third day.
Yin Minglu has not been idle for the past few days. He always mentions how kind he is to Qiao An, and he also says that he will let Qiao An join the Vatican's project. He looks like a good senior who treats Qiao An with all his heart and soul. . Everyone in the company soon found out that they were envious of Joanna, and wondered why such a good thing didn't happen to him. Do I still need to work hard to climb up
This is especially true for those returnees. Ever since Yin Minglu revealed their family background, they have slightly changed their habit of bragging, and their actions have become much more down-to-earth. It means that he admires young people very much, and often regrets what he did wrong at the beginning, so he is also the group of people in the whole company who envy and hate Joan the most.
After hearing how good the young man was to Qiao An, they felt even more uneasy. They often satirized Qiao An sourly in public, so they publicized the young man's kindness to Qiao An to everyone.
The boss was alarmed. He called the boy to his office and said, "Don't be so nice to your assistant."
The boy said, "Why?"
Lou vainly said, you don't have to be so good to Joan, he is not worth it. But facing the puzzled eyes of the young man, Lou Wang couldn't say anything, because after all, this was the employee's private matter, and he had no room to comment.
But for some reason, he always felt that such a kind and giving boy would get hurt sooner or later, which made him feel uneasy. Sure enough, things happened very quickly, and he will never forget the way the boy was crying that day, which made his heart ache so much that it was about to be crushed.
