Lunch was quickly prepared, Liang Shuxian and her aunt brought it to the table, and the Zhan family members quickly sat down.
Only Xu Rongrong did not sit down.
After being back for so long, she could see that the attitude of the Zhan family towards Pin Ruiyun was no longer as resistant and repulsive as before.
Maybe it was because she voluntarily divorced Zhan Yiyang.
No matter how much the people of the Zhan family value her and appreciate her, they cannot compare to the blood relationship between Zhan Yiyang and the Zhan family. Now that she has divorced Zhan Yiyang, she has no relationship with Zhan Yiyang and the Zhan family.
.And Pin Ruiyun is Zhan Yiyang's upcoming bride and the Zhan family's future daughter-in-law. They can't stop Zhan Yiyang and can only accept it.
Therefore, the attitude of the Zhan family towards Pin Ruiyun has changed, and Commander Zhan will no longer threaten Zhan Yiyang.
However, in front of her, the Zhan family was still somewhat unable to be too close to Pin Ruiyun. Because they knew in their hearts that the Zhan family was ashamed of her. It seemed too much to happily accept their new daughter-in-law so quickly.
Ungrateful.
As long as she is here, the embarrassment that permeates the air will not dissipate. Xu Rongrong knows it well, so...
"Grandpa, aunt, you can eat, there is something else to do in the cafe, I'll leave first." Xu Rongrong picked up his bag, smiled at everyone, and was about to leave.
Liang Shuxian and Grandpa Zhan tried their best to persuade her to stay. Although Xu Rongrong also wanted to stay with Tianning, she still only hugged Tianning and turned around to leave.
When she walked to the door, she looked back at Zhan Yiyang.
In the future, maybe she should challenge Yiyang to come when he is not at home. Although she wants to see him, she cannot make Zhan Yiyang unhappy and put the entire Zhan family into trouble just to satisfy her desire.
Xu Rongrong is so stupid.
People in the Zhan family also understood Xu Rongrong's thoughts, so after Xu Rongrong left, the atmosphere still did not recover.
Pin Ruiyun was even more embarrassed. She knew everything, what Xu Rongrong had done for Zhan Yiyang, and she also knew that in the eyes of the Zhan family, Xu Rongrong was a perfect wife. But she had never thought that Xu Rongrong would be so difficult.
replace.
"Let's eat." Grandpa Zhan picked up the chopsticks, even his movements seemed a bit heavy. Others also responded, but the weirdness in the air could not be eliminated no matter what.
Zhan Yiyang frowned involuntarily, but with Tianning pestering him, he had no time to say anything to Pin Ruiyun and kept adding vegetables to the small bowl in front of Xiao Tianning.
"Dad, why don't you eat?" Tianning turned his eyes as dark and bright as ink jade in a weird way, "Well, dad, you eat too, and we will compete! Let's see who eats more!"
Zhan Yiyang was always responsive to his son's requests. He glanced at the dishes on the table, reached for the stir-fried pork liver with his chopsticks, and put a piece into his mouth, thus starting the competition with Tianning.
Tianning was laughing loudly as he plundered the rice. In the end, the weird embarrassment was dispelled by the laughter of the father and son, and smiles appeared on the faces of others.
Only Pin Ruiyun couldn't smile, and not only that, the smile she could barely maintain on her face was about to collapse.
In the past four years, Zhan Yiyang has indeed not eaten liver-based food. No matter what flavor it is, he will frown when he sees it. But why would he eat something made by Xu Rongrong? Why, Xu Rongrong is so sure that he will eat it.
?
Pin Ruiyun was angry with Xu Rongrong. She clearly knew that she would win the bet, but she left.
Just now she provoked her so arrogantly, shouldn't she stay and watch her joke?
How could there be such a woman in the world? It was this thing about this woman that Zhan Yiyang fell in love with four years ago?
"Dad, I want to eat pork liver too!" Xiao Tianning suddenly pointed at the stir-fried pork liver on the dining table and shouted, "Mom said, my father and I both have a weird habit of eating pork liver. We have to cut it very thin before eating it.
!”
Zhan Yiyang was stunned. Yes, he did only eat thinly sliced pork liver. Xu Rongrong... actually remembered it so clearly? And this quirk was actually inherited by Tianning?
Pin Ruiyun's forced smile completely collapsed. Zhan Yiyang never told her about this subtle little habit. Not only that, Zhan Yiyang never made any demands on her or found fault with her.
Friends said that this was Zhan Yiyang's thoughtfulness.
But, is that really considerate?
This meal has completely lost its taste and meaning in Pin Ruiyun's mouth. Although, today is the day when Zhan Yiyang officially takes her home to meet his family.
Xu Rongrong also felt unhappy.
After leaving the gate of Zhan's house, the driver said he wanted to see her off, but she asked him to drive to the road to find her in half an hour.
Something was blocking her heart and she needed to breathe some fresh air to relax, otherwise, she was afraid she would suffocate and die.
Zhan Yiyang, Pin Ruiyun.
Zhan Yiyang, Pin Ruiyun...
Her mind was filled with images of them together, and that image came face to face, clogging her chest...
She couldn't tear the picture apart, so she could only hide and lick her wounds silently in the corner.
For some reason, she seemed to feel a dull pain from the gunshot wound on her wrist...
Amid the pain and suffocation, Xu Rongrong endured each day slowly.
She still went back to Zhan's house from time to time, but she usually made a phone call before going back. The aunt at home probably knew about her and Zhan Yiyang's situation, and would tell her tactfully whether Zhan Yiyang was at home today and whether he had
Take Tianning out.
If Zhan Yiyang is not here, she will go back and stay with Tianning as before. If Zhan Yiyang is there, she usually chooses to have a phone call or video chat with Tianning.
In short, she never saw Zhan Yiyang again.
In fact, she thought, this was fine, so what if she saw him? Zhan Yiyang still gave her a stern face.
Therefore, it is better to miss each other than to meet each other.
In this way, half a month has passed, and almost a month has passed since Zhan Yiyang came back.
Within a month, the divorce between Zhan Yiyang and Xu Rongrong was diluted. No one discussed it anymore. Xu Rongrong's life returned to peace, and the cafe was decorated.
The decoration design drawings of the coffee shop were drawn by Xu Rongrong and Ye Zi'an together. Later, the professional designers hired by Ji Fanyi gave some suggestions and made improvements based on their designs. The team hired by Ji Fanyi was responsible for the decoration.
For the final effect, Xu Rongrong gave it 32 likes without hesitation.
Pushing open the door of the cafe, you will first see the courtyard.
In the yard of twenty square meters, an artificial flower pond was dug in the left corner, and a small water wheel that kept running was placed in it. The clear water flowed down from the wall, passed through the water wheel and entered the flower pond, and circulated repeatedly.
I found the very special scenery in the cafe.
There are three handmade custom-made wooden tables and chairs placed next to the flower pond. The tables and chairs are surrounded by flowers and plants, forming an open-air seating area.
Directly opposite the door is the room where the bar is located. The cobblestone path extends to the door. Two windows inside face the yard. The coffee table is placed next to the window. There are two rooms on both sides, one of which is just like all the other rooms.
The coffee shop is also equipped with tables and chairs, and the other one is a book bar.
Climb the stairs to the top floor, where there are sun umbrellas on top and flowers and plants all around. The coffee table seems to grow out of the flowers and plants, which is quite French-style.
The final effect of the entire cafe was more than ten times better than Xu Rongrong expected.
She sighed that Ji Fanyi was too willing to spend money. Although she was not that knowledgeable, she could still tell that the flowers, plants, bottles, and jars were all imported goods. The forget-me-not vase on the window sill was also made of leaves.
Ann brought it back from France.
With such a decoration, Xu Rongrong thought, it would be difficult for them not to have customers, right?
"Well, very good, very good." Ye Zi'an looked at the coffee shop and nodded, "Ji Fanyi finally did something that seemed like a human being."
"..." Xu Rongrong wanted to ask Ye Zi'an, is it possible that what Ji Fanyi usually does are... things that only animals would do?
But even though Ji Fanyi was usually like a wolf and a tiger, she knew that it was all because of Ye Zi'an's force.
Four years ago, on the day she gave birth to Tianning, Ye Zi'an agreed to Ji Fanyi's proposal. A year later, when Tianning turned one year old, the two held a wedding. And then... there was no more, Ye Zi'an refused to take it.
My child, Ji Fanyi was scratching his head but there was nothing he could do.
To this day, Ye Zi'an is still playing, and Ji Fanyi still lets Ye Zi'an play, and even helped her open a cafe for her to play without saying anything.
Therefore, since their marriage, Ye Zi'an has not changed at all except becoming Mrs. Ji. She still looks like an unmarried person.
"Okay, Rongrong, let's go write the menu." Ye Zi'an pulled Xu Rongrong into the book bar room.
The book bar is a small room with several sofas and a bookshelf built into one wall, with a shelf of books sorted on it.
Xu Rongrong sat down and carefully wrote the menu in a small, exquisite leather-colored notebook, for fear that if he made a single mistake, the entire menu would become invalid.
After everything was done, Xu Rongrong tidied up the coffee shop. Three days later, the coffee shop officially opened, which happened to be Saturday.
The two of them did not do any publicity in the early stage, but Ji Fanyi was very helpful and spent a lot of money on publicity. On the first day of business, the number of customers and reviews the cafe received exceeded Xu Rongrong's ideals.
Of course, the price is that Xu Rongrong has been busy making snacks all day long, with almost no breaks. And Ye Zi'an is also busy making coffee. The two young girls hired as waiters have to wash their hands in a hurry.
At 11pm, it finally closed.
Ye Zi'an and the two waiters were so tired that they lay on the sofa and couldn't speak. Xu Rongrong came out from the bar with a few drinks and snacks and placed them on the glass coffee table, "Here, I want to express my condolences to everyone, thank you for your hard work!"
"If I had known I was so tired, I wouldn't have come today." Ye Zi'an drank half a cup of fresh juice and started with a piece of cheese cake without hesitation.
Xu Rongrong knew that everyone was tired, and she was also tired. However, this tiredness also brought her a very fulfilling feeling.
She likes this fulfillment, just like a person who is lost in the vast sea and finally sees the lighthouse. She can finally stop thinking about Zhan Yiyang every day and feel the heartbreaking feeling every day.
She finally returned to ordinary life, working hard to make a living. ylover...
