1909. Chapter 1909 Hurrying those fleeting years 4
My father-in-law had a keen eye for people, and he could tell at a glance that Gu Chen, who was born in a rural area, must be extraordinary. Unfortunately, I was a little too young back then and didn't realize that this was a diamond in the rough, so I missed it.
A girl like Gu Chen, who is generous, elegant and well-spoken when dealing with officials and wives, even if she does not have a good family background, as long as she has herself, she will definitely be able to help her husband rise to the top, and she will be a good wife. .
Unfortunately, both she and her son missed it.
If she misses it, there will be no hope. Such a woman has her own pride, how can she allow others to be capricious?
"There are steps here. Be careful when you get down. Don't twist your feet." Zheng Heng was gentle and very attentive to the girls around him. Otherwise, he would not have coaxed Shen Xiyue for so many years and never left him.
However, Gu Chen hated this kind of consideration that treated people as if they were mentally retarded. He gave him a cold look and said calmly: "I'm not a three-year-old child. You don't have to serve me like an adult."
It is clearly a kind of considerateness from a man to a woman, but in her mouth it becomes like a grown-up caring for a child.
This made Zheng Heng feel frustrated. It seemed that he could not coax her well, nor could he get along with Gu Chen in the same way he used to get along with girls.
I can only lower my head and say no more.
Seeing Gu Chen approaching, Zheng's mother stood up in person without needing Gu Chen's greetings, "Miss Gu, long time no see. I didn't expect to meet Miss Gu here. I almost thought I was jealous."
This proves that Zheng Heng did not tell lies. It was indeed Zheng's mother who saw Gu Chen first.
"Hello, Mrs. Zheng."
After all, Zheng Heng had lived abroad and had a girlfriend too early, so he knew what a man's demeanor was. Before sitting down, he had already pulled out the chair for Gu Chen and waited for her to sit down before he sat down.
He waved the waiter over and prepared to order a cup of coffee and some small desserts for Gu Chen.
Zheng's mother said, "I don't know what Miss Gu likes to drink, so I took the initiative and ordered Miss Gu some cappuccino that little girls usually like, and a small dessert."
Gu Chen smiled slightly and nodded, "Don't worry, I still have things to deal with here, so I can't stay too long."
"It's okay. I'll drive you there later. I won't delay your work." Zheng Heng didn't want to let Gu Chen leave so quickly, so he secretly glanced at Zheng's mother, trying to get his mother to stay with Gu Chen for a while.
Zheng's mother didn't seem to feel it. She smiled faintly and said gracefully: "I guess you must have something urgent to do before coming to Beijing. However, no matter how urgent it is, you just want to drink a cup of coffee. It just so happened that when I came to Beijing, I still wanted to go to Beijing." Met Miss Gu’s adoptive mother, Mrs. Gu.”
Compared to Zheng Heng, Zheng's mother's methods of retaining people were much more sophisticated.
The cafe is decorated in a retro style, all with wood-colored decorations, and the hanging lamps are very simple, retro round lamps with American flags printed on them. The lights are not bright, and it gives a hazy feeling of traveling through time and space. Retro optical illusion.
Gu Chen sat under the light and shadow, and the warm light reflected her face. Her fair skin seemed to glow with a warm light, diluting the coldness between her brows, and revealing her beauty that could be both static and movable from the inside out. .
Zheng Heng was worried that his mother didn't understand what he meant. His eyes fell on Gu Chen's face inadvertently, and he happened to see the beautiful face under the light and shadow. He was caught off guard and became a little crazy.
