Time passed bit by bit, and it was less than an hour before the arrival of the New Year. At this time, the number of customers in the duck soup restaurant increased instead of decreasing, so Zhou Jing and Xiuzhi couldn't hide it.
It's just that most of the customers who entered the store were older, so a funny thing happened. They recognized Zhou Jing but had no impression of Suzy.
Why do you say that? The reason is very simple. Anyone who comes to say hello to Zhou Jing never forgets to compliment him at the end.
"President Zhou Jing, your daughter-in-law is very beautiful, really enviable..."
This is enough to prove that they know that Zhou Jingzheng is dating a female artist, but they may not know who it is, and of course they may not care. And Suzy looks like an artist at first glance, so do you need to guess the relationship between the two? Haha...
There was nothing wrong with the logic, but that was not the case. Zhou Jing initially planned to explain, but then he thought it might get darker and darker, so he simply gave up.
Suzy's manager, who had the same idea as Zhou Jing, also didn't clarify. This made Xiuzhi very happy. She raised her glass and said softly to Zhou Jing:
"Wuli man, let's have a drink, hehe..."
After saying that, she winked mischievously and her expression of pride was palpable. Not to mention Zhou Jing, even her manager couldn't stand it anymore. She was muttering in her heart, but she was misunderstood, that's all.
Nonsense, of course, as for that, why did Suzy suddenly become Zhou Jing's father in the eyes of outsiders? Regardless of whether it was true or not, she was enjoying it very much at the moment, so why not?
"Okay, it's almost done..." Under the surprised gaze of his manager, Zhou Jing first clinked glasses with Suzy, then drank it all and said,
"Xiuzhi, when you came out of the hospital, you seemed to have something to say to me. You must have been holding it back for a long time. There are no outsiders here. Let's talk. Is there anything you want to ask me for help?"
Xiuzhi's smile immediately froze as soon as these words came out. She thought she was hiding it well, but unexpectedly, Zhou Jing had noticed what she was thinking, which made her feel a little embarrassed.
"You...can see it, haha..."
Xiu Zhi was a little panicked. Seeing this, Zhou Jing smiled slightly and indicated with his eyes that she should speak quickly if she had something to say, otherwise there would be no such store in this village.
Well, since this was the case, Xiuzhi felt there was no need to be pretentious. She took the opportunity to pour the wine to calm down a little, and then asked Zhou Jing cautiously,
"Oppa, um...are you okay?"
"Huh?" Zhou Jing was confused and didn't understand what Xiuzhi meant.
"It's...about...the news..."
Although Xiu Zhi's words were unclear, Zhou Jing reacted instantly, and a warm current quickly surged into his heart.
Yes, Zhou Jing used a news event from 8 months ago to remind everyone how to save Fang Xue'e's child. Of course, the doctors suddenly understood and were overjoyed, but Xiuzhi's mood was extremely complicated.
You must know that the recipient of the donation was a 47-year-old Korean female patient. If Xiuzhi’s inference was correct, Zhou Jing’s mother should have been about the same age as that patient when she got sick. Putting it into perspective, it was hard for her to imagine Zhou Jing’s heart when she saw this news.
Real experience.
For the same disease, if others were saved but his mother was not, it would be nice if the others would not feel resentful. Therefore, it was hard for Xiuzhi not to wonder what kind of mental journey he had.
At the same time, she also tried her best to give Zhou Jing some comfort. After all, she was the one who proposed the special itinerary first. She believed that she had this responsibility and obligation, so she thought of going out for a late-night snack.
Maybe having a few glasses of wine with him on New Year's Eve would ease his mood, but of course she would prefer to use other methods...
"Haha..." Suddenly Zhou Jing smiled, but then he put away his smile and asked slightly sullenly,
"Xi Xiuzhi, am I so fragile in your heart? I need you to treat me with such caution, huh..."
No, maybe it hurts his self-esteem as a man? Xiuzhi was suddenly startled and had no time to think about it and hurriedly explained, "Ani, Ani, Oppa, I..."
The voice stopped suddenly because Xiuzhi noticed that Zhou Jing's face seemed expressionless but a smile quietly appeared on the corner of his mouth, which made her immediately realize that she was being teased, so...
"Ah, you actually tricked me, it's just too much."
"Ha ha..."
Xiu Zhi's blow made Zhou Jing unable to control his laughter anymore, and Xiu Zhi became more and more angry and wanted to give Zhou Jing a slap without saying a word. She has learned Taekwondo since she was a child, and she has always believed that if she can move her hands, she will never move her mouth.
But as soon as he moved, Zhou Jing's words came right after him. Just one word made it impossible for Suzy to hit him or not.
"Xiuzhi, Kumawa..."
Xiu Zhi could tell that Zhou Jing's thank you was sincere and sincere, without the slightest hint of ridicule. This showed that he had fully understood her feelings, even though she actually didn't say anything.
Oudok, this damn tacit understanding made Xiuzhi's heart beat wildly involuntarily. Her embarrassment turned into sweetness instantly, and she almost couldn't help but want to throw herself into Zhou Jing's arms, and then...
Calm down and hold on, Crystal is his father. Xiu Zhi secretly warned herself that no matter how much she liked the man in front of her, she could not be a mistress. It would not be a good thing for the three of them.
"It's good to know..." Xiuzhi rolled her eyes at Zhou Jing, then picked up the wine glass and took a sip to hide her inner uneasiness.
"Haha..." Zhou Jing chuckled and did not continue the topic.
At this time, there were two new teams on the TV about to compete in a PK. The first one to appear was KARA. The four members were dressed in black leather outfits and caught Zhou Jing's attention immediately.
Needless to say Goo Hara, she is confident and domineering on stage as if she has the aura of a queen. New maknae Heo Young Ji has recorded a show with Zhou Kyung, and in his impression Heo Young Ji is a naive little girl.
But it was not the case at this moment. He almost didn't recognize it. He was a completely different person. He was mature, beautiful and sexy, but there was no trace of naivety at all.
A medley of "STEP" + "Mamma Mia", this is Zhou Jing's first time watching KARA's live show, and I have to say that the top three in 2007 are really worthy of it.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! No matter the song, dance and live performance are impeccable, Zhou Jing watched with relish, but Suzy’s joking voice floated in his ears,
"Hey Yigu, Oppa, are you planning to climb the wall? Hehe..."
"Mo? How is it possible? You will be trapped to death for a lifetime." Zhou Jing immediately denied.
"Oh, I'm still sleepy. I didn't even go to the concert. I heard that someone is very dissatisfied with you." Xiuzhi continued to tease Zhou Jing, but Zhou Jing became nervous.
"who?"
"I won't tell you, hehe..."
Suzy wanted to laugh and thought Zhou Kyung was quite cute sometimes. No one in the circle knew that she, Lee Ji-eun and Park Ji-yeon were relatives, so who needed to ask?
Little did she know that Zhou Jing couldn't figure it out either. How could he not know the relationship between Long Zaizi and Xiuzhi, but he had already told Li Juli the reason, so Tara and the other six should be able to understand.
"No, didn't Ju Lixi tell Park Jiyeonxi?" Zhou Jing blurted out without thinking.
Now it’s okay, Xiuzhi was stunned for a moment, and then asked in an unbelievable tone: "Oppa, you... do you know Ju Lixi?"
"I'm so sleepy, how come I don't know Ju Lixi, haha..." Zhou Jing realized that he had made a mistake and quickly wanted to come back. The question was, is Suzy so easy to fool?
"Ani, what I mean is that you have a personal relationship with Ju Lixi?" Xiuzhi asked in a deep voice with a frosty face.
"Uh..." Zhou Jing was speechless for a moment.
Should I say this or not? It depends on the situation. I can’t figure out the situation. Wait, Zhou Jing came to his senses. No, it’s not right. It’s fine if Crystal asks. What’s going on with Xiuzhi? It doesn’t make sense.
At this moment, there was a change on the TV. MC Jeon Hyun Moo and Lee Hye Ri had already gathered together the artists participating in the special stage. It was only a few minutes before midnight on New Year's Day, and they were conducting on-site interviews.
"Tara is here too, Zhiyanxi, please come to the front." Li Huili pulled Long Zizi out.
Interestingly, Zhou Jing ignored Su Zhi’s hateful eyes and concentrated on watching TV. Unexpectedly, his heart trembled the next second when Quan Xuan Moo asked Zhi Yan if she had any personal love plans in the coming year.
"Hahaha..." The dinosaur laughed as promised, and the dragon boy gave the answer, "I have always wanted to fall in love."
"Yeah?"
"Inside..."
"Are you in love?"
"I want to fall in love."
"Arasso, don't be too nervous."
"Ho ho ho..."
Let me go, this host is so good at it, Zhou Jing is worried that if Long Zai accidentally explodes a big melon, that bitch Yang will faint in the toilet from crying.
"No, why are you kicking me?" Zhou Jingzheng sighed, but he didn't expect Xiuzhi to kick him directly under the table.
What's wrong with her? Showing off her long legs. Zhou Jing patted his pants and was speechless. He didn't know what Xiuzhi was doing, but if he really knew the inside story, he would be even more scared to death.
Ji-yeon wants to fall in love, so guess her ideal type would be a guy who owes several barbecues, haha...
The scene turned to the Rishan Studio, which was also crowded. MC Kim Sung-joo mentioned that there were only 2 minutes left before the New Year, and next year would be the Year of the Sheep. Jiang Ji-hyun immediately named two artists who were born in the year of the Sheep and stepped forward.
"Seo Hyun xi, Goo Hara xi..."
What kind of combination is this? Zhou Jing looked at the familiar faces on the TV and suddenly came up with an idea. They are all born in the year of their birth year. According to the rules of the Chinese people, just underwear, and a set of red socks must be given as a gift.
Let’s talk about this later, it’s almost midnight, Zhou Jing takes out his mobile phone to make a video call to Crystal. The first blessing of the new year must be for his father, but it’s a pity...
"What's going on?" Zhou Jing put down his phone angrily.
Jing Jing didn’t answer the call, and Shirley did the same. Zhou Jing couldn’t help but shuddered and felt a faint sense of uneasiness. Seeing this, Xiuzhi couldn’t help but ask:
"What's wrong, Oppa, can't you contact Xiujing?"
"Well, the truth is also true. Neither of them answered the phone."
"Didn't you say that they went to watch the light show on the Bund? Maybe there were too many people at the scene and they couldn't hear the phone ringing."
"Well, I hope so."
As the countdown to the New Year ended, the Imjingak Bell in Paju City, Gyeonggi Province ushered in the first day of 2015 with 34 bells.
"Oppa, Happy New Year."
"Well, Happy New Year."
While Suzy was excited, Zhou Kyung looked worried. She couldn't contact Crystal and Shirley at the beginning of the new year. This was not a good start anyway.
Not long after, he received a push message on his phone. When he opened it, Zhou Jing was so frightened that he could hardly stand upright because the content of the message was...
"Breaking news, a serious stampede occurred at the Bund New Year's Eve light show, which has killed more than 40 people and injured dozens..."
