Chapter 183: Belated affection is cheaper than grass
In the restaurant, Cheng Wei saw that Ruan Xingwan had been a little absent-minded and asked softly: "Xingwan, is the food tonight not to your liking?"
Hearing this, Ruan Xingwan retracted his thoughts and smiled at him apologetically: "No, it tastes pretty good. It's my fault."
I don't know if it was because she hugged Ji Ran's baby today. Ruan Xingwan was a little out of sorts all afternoon. She couldn't help but think that if her baby was born, it would be the same.
So small, so soft, so cute
Cheng Wei added hot water to her cup: "The problem is with me. What I said last night must have scared you."
After returning, he did feel a little abrupt.
But Ruan Xingwan had already agreed, and he had no reason to regret it.
Ruan Xingwan pursed her lips: "Cheng Wei, actually I"
Cheng Wei smiled and said: "I know that the reason why you agreed to me is probably because you were angry with Zhou Cishen."
Ruan Xingwan was slightly startled, but did not deny it. He just said, "I'm sorry."
"It doesn't matter, if this can help you, I'll be happy."
Cheng Wei continued, "Xingwan, I don't know if it's appropriate to say this, but in the past few years, I always thought you were living a good life. Maybe you married Ji Huaijian after graduation, but
What I didn't expect was that what I was waiting for was the news of Zhou An'an's engagement."
"The moment I learned the news, my heart was actually very complicated. On the one hand, I was secretly happy, but on the other hand, I couldn't help but think about what happened between you and what you would be like at that time.
Feeling.
In fact, I have never thought about getting anything, I just think that being able to watch you live well from a distance is enough."
Cheng Wei said, smiling slightly: "But I didn't know until last night that you haven't had a good life these years."
Ruan Xingwan raised the corners of her lips and said relaxedly: "Life is like this. It's inevitable to have ups and downs. At least I'm quite happy now, and those things are in the past."
Cheng Wei didn't know that her character had never changed, she was stubborn and optimistic, and she would never speak out about all the pain she suffered.
Ruan Xingwan has always been very beautiful since she was in school, so she was inevitably pursued by boys around her. Whether it was giving gifts or inviting people to dinner, she declined them all with a smile.
What she goes to every day is a convenience store just one street away from the school. This is the place where she spends the most time besides school, and it is also the source of all her income.
Cheng Wei had no impression of her at first, except that he knew there was a pretty girl.
Until that day, when he passed by a convenience store, he saw a drunk man asking her for money. She must have just paid her salary that day.
She took out some money from her bag and gave it to the man. The man was very dissatisfied and wanted to grab the money in her envelope.
Ruan Xingwan said in a very firm tone: "This is my and Xiaochen's living expenses for the next month. I can't give it to you."
The man cursed a few unpleasant words, but her expression didn't change at all.
And judging from the words the man cursed, he should be her father.
After the man cursed and left, she didn't seem to be sad for even a moment. She just took a deep breath, regained her smile, and continued to work in the convenience store.
At that time, Cheng Wei didn't know what was driving him and slowly walked in.
The girl, with her hair tied in a high ponytail, stood there carefully counting the goods, her expression focused and serious.
When Cheng Weigang wanted to step forward, Ji Huai came to see her and called her name.
When she looked back, her smile was bright and bright.
His steps paused and he slowly stepped back.
From that moment on, Cheng Wei knew that he would never be able to reach her in this life and could only watch her from a distance.
But now, he has this opportunity again.
I also want to take that step that I didn’t take at the beginning.
Just as Cheng Wei was about to speak, a calm voice sounded next to him: "Mr. Cheng, what a coincidence."
Zhou Cishen did not regard himself as an outsider at all, and sat directly next to Ruan Xingwan, with a calm tone: "Let's share a table, I believe Mr. Cheng won't mind. To show my sincerity, Mr. Cheng's consumption tonight will be from
I'll pay."
Cheng Wei: ""
Ruan Xingwan: ""
Zhou Cishen took the menu handed over by the waiter, ordered a few dishes, and then said, "I want another fish soup."
Just when the waiter was about to say that they didn't have fish soup here, the store clerk came over quickly: "Okay, Mr. Zhou, do you have any other instructions?"
Zhou Cishen said calmly: "Put Houttuynia cordata in the soup."
"Mr. Zhou, wait a moment, I'll let the kitchen do it now."
After the manager left, Ruan Xingwan suppressed his temper, stood up and said to Cheng Wei: "I've eaten, let's go."
Cheng Wei nodded, stood up, called the waiter to pay the bill, and then said to Zhou Cishen: "Mr. Zhou, please take it easy. Today's meal is my treat for you."
Zhou Cishen pursed her thin lips slightly and took Ruan Xingwan's hand.
Ruan Xingwan said coldly: "Please, Mr. Zhou, please don't push me."
Zhou Cishen said: "Don't you like fish soup the most? Drink it before leaving."
"Just because I liked it before doesn't mean I like it now."
"If you don't like it now, it doesn't mean you won't like it in the future."
There was no emotion in his voice, but there was a pun.
Ruan Xingwan: ""
This dog man is really getting more and more excited.
Ruan Xingwan shook his hand away: "Eat slowly by yourself."
It's best to hold him to death.
After saying that, he quickly left the restaurant.
Before Cheng finished settling the bill, he turned to look at Zhou Cishen: "Don't Mr. Zhou think his behavior is ridiculous?"
Zhou Cishen raised his eyelids and looked at him calmly: "I don't think so."
Cheng Weidao: "I don't know if Mr. Zhou has ever heard of this sentence, belated affection is cheaper than grass."
After finishing speaking, Cheng Wei nodded lightly to him and left in stride.
At this time, the manager of the store came over again: "Mr. Zhou, are the dishes you just ordered still available?"
Zhou Cishen said: "Pack them all up."
"OK."
Two minutes later, Lin Nan walked in quickly: "Mr. Zhou, Madam and Mr. Cheng have left."
Zhou Cishen hummed, but didn't express much.
Lin Nan asked tentatively: "Do you want to follow?"
"Need not."
Zhou Cishen said, "It's nothing more than sending her home. You don't have to guess."
What's more, his goal today has been achieved.
Twenty minutes later, the store manager came to him with the packed box: "Mr. Zhou, I've been waiting for a long time."
After leaving the restaurant, even if Zhou Cishen didn't speak, Lin Nan knew what to do next.
He directly navigated to the address of Ruan Xingwan's home.
At this moment, Lin Nan suddenly heard a male voice with no emotion behind him: "Is grass cheap?"
