Lu Beicen watched his younger brother push open the screen door and walk in, holding up his camera with a smile, followed by Jiang Zhongze who also didn't know what he was laughing about. He quickly got off the bed, put on his shoes, and entered the bathroom.
"Your sister said that in the mountains there is only high-grade braised wine brewed by farmers. Do you dare to drink it?" Fang Nan said in a hurry.
"How high is the height?"
"Sixty or seventy degrees?"
"It doesn't taste good, alcohol..."
Lu Beihao and Fang Nan were stunned, and looked at Jiang Zhongze in astonishment. Unexpectedly, he added another sentence: "It's still early, Ah Hao, shall we go out to buy wine?"
Lu Beihao and Fang Nan looked at each other again. Fang Nan saw disbelief in Lu Beihao's eyes, and Lu Beihao saw doubt in Fang Nan's eyes.
"Brother Ze is so interested, let's go buy it." Lu Beihao turned around and shouted.
Lu Beicen washed his face. After hearing Lu Beihao's words, he came out of the bathroom without even having time to wipe away the water: "Wait a minute, are you guys going to make sure you can come back?"
"You lead the way? Or you drive, and I provide the money and effort." Jiang Zhongze looked at the water droplets sliding down from Lu Beicen's eyebrows, with a hint of negotiation in his smile.
Lu Beicen wiped his face helplessly and looked at the three drunken people in the room. He simply didn't know what to say: "I'm not a humanoid navigation. It gets dark early in the mountains."
Fang Nan and Lu Beihao both looked at Jiang Zhongze as if they were watching the excitement, their eyes filled with the expression "You continue."
Jiang Zhongze's face remained unchanged, his heart did not beat, and he nodded seriously: "Well, your navigation is very good, you won't get lost."
Lu Beicen was completely speechless. He suppressed the rolling of his eyes in his heart. When he lowered his head, he caught a trace of amusement flashing in Jiang Zhongze's eyes. He must drink wine. He was clearly challenging his own bottom line.
, Lu Beicen immediately relieved himself: "No need to buy it. Mr. Lin will invite us to dinner tonight. There will be plenty of wine. Just be careful of getting drunk."
The result turned out to be a prophecy. Under the aroma of the goose stewed in the iron pot and Mr. Lin's enthusiastic persuasion to drink, Lu Beihao and Fang Nan became drunk before the meal was finished. Lu Beicen was determined not to drink.
Mr. Lin didn't force her to drink. Jiang Zhongze didn't know whether it was because he was a heavy drinker or if he was using some kind of deception, but he was able to help Lu Beihao into the room and go to sleep first.
After Lu Beicen settled down in Fang Nan, he felt sleepy. He left the wooden house alone, climbed up the stairs, and slowly walked to the open space where he used to take pictures of the stars.
It is so quiet in the mountains that you can even hear the sound of the breeze, not to mention the chirping of insects and the chirping of frogs.
Lu Beicen sat on a big rock at the edge of the open space and looked at the open sky in the distance with contentment.
It's a pity that the moon is bright and there are few stars today. The moon hangs brightly in the sky. It's nice to look at, but it's a bit lonely.
"It's a pity that there is no starry sky today, what a pity!" Jiang Zhongze's voice suddenly sounded from behind, frightening Lu Beicen so much that she couldn't help but lean forward, and a warm hand quickly pulled her forward body back.
Inertia directly caused Lu Beicen's face to press against Jiang Zhongze's chest.
The man's unique smell after bathing went directly into Lu Beicen's nose, and her brain was instantly deprived of oxygen. The key was that the man's other hand stroked the top of her head: "It's okay, why are you sitting in such a dangerous place?"
Lu Beicen came to his senses, struggled a little, and silently signaled Jiang Zhongze to let go.
"Did I scare you? I'm sorry!" Jiang Zhongze let go very slowly. After saying this, he actually sat next to Lu Beicen. Although they had been laughing and joking for a while this afternoon because of the matter in the room, the relationship between the two
The atmosphere was no longer as awkward as before, but Lu Beicen was still uncomfortable with sitting so close to him.
Just as Lu Beicen was about to get up, Jiang Zhongze suddenly said: "You seem to be afraid of me?"
Lu Beicen was stunned for several seconds before coming back to his senses and forgetting the action of getting up: "Did Mr. Jiang use the wrong word?"
"How to say?"
"Afraid in Chinese is called fear. Mr. Jiang is not a savage beast, so it doesn't scare me. Either he is afraid of losing it because of the bond of friendship, which doesn't seem to apply to you and me. Or maybe he is just a living parent, and there is nothing he can do about it.
, obviously it doesn’t apply to you and me either.”
"But that's how I feel."
"I'm sorry, you feel wrong. I just feel that there is no need for you and me to have a deep relationship."
"But you rejected me thousands of miles away, it's obvious."
"That's how I treat guests. I'm polite. If I'm so enthusiastic about Mr. Jiang, shouldn't Mr. Jiang have some other wrong feelings?"
"That's not necessary. You just need to treat me like any friend you just met. Don't always be on guard."
After a moment of silence, Lu Beicen nodded Congshan Ruliu: "Okay, good night, Mr. Jiang, I'll leave first."
Lu Beicen just stood up, but Jiang Zhongze grabbed his wrist: "You promised to get along with me like a friend, why did you just leave? Is this how you treat your friends?"
The night wind made Lu Beicen feel a little chilly, and the warmth of the hand on her wrist made her whole body instantly get goosebumps. She shook off the hand and said, "Mr. Jiang, I will definitely not be with someone I just met."
Friends, let’s chat alone late at night.”
"Xiaobei, do you have any misunderstandings about me? Can we have a frank talk?" Jiang Zhongze asked, looking at Lu Beicen's back.
Lu Beicen paused and turned around. The man behind him had a Western-style expression of regret on his face, but his eyes were glaringly looking at him. Lu Beicen was short of breath for a moment, lowered his eyes, and said in silence for a moment: "If there is really a misunderstanding, it should be you.
...is there any misunderstanding about us?"
Jiang Zhongze's heart moved. She was finally willing to say it directly, but he was worried that she would just leave like that, so he quickly asked: "Why do you feel so?"
"It doesn't matter how I feel. You always like to treat everyone as a player, so why bother?" Lu Beicen chuckled.
Jiang Zhongze heard a hint of sarcasm in Lu Beicen's words, looked at her and said, "You know, you actually know everything?"
Lu Beicen sneered, raised his head slightly and looked directly at Jiang Zhongze: "Mr. Jiang, people in this world don't become smart just because they have money. They often think they are smart after they have money. Who do you think is a fool? Jiang
Why did my husband suddenly return to China, stay at our house, and even observe me secretly?"
"But it doesn't matter. I can endure it for Ah Hao. We can all endure it. It's not because of anything else. It's just because Ah Hao is so good. We all love him and don't want to make him sad. We are all grateful to Ah Hao's mother.
, brought him up so brightly."
"But I really can't imagine why people in your family, who are used to making trouble inside, can still sit here and openly talk to me about whether they are friends or not. I have no position, but Mr. Jiang
Can you get along with me like a friend without any grudges?"
"Forget it, let's talk about it. I made a mistake today. Mr. Jiang, just think that I was drunk and talking nonsense. Good night!"
