Chapter 290: Encounter at a Cantonese Restaurant
"I'm sorry, you..." Wang Yiyang grabbed his mother who was rushing forward and apologized to the passerby, but unexpectedly the other person turned out to be someone he knew.
"Zheng Yi?" the man exclaimed in surprise, "Why are you here too?"
When Sister Wu received the news that Zheng's mother had arrived at the restaurant, she became extremely anxious and asked her son to take her there quickly. She walked so hurriedly that she bumped into many people along the way.
"Son, stop chatting! Our fellow villagers are waiting for us to have dinner together!" Seeing her son stop, Sister Wu urged him from the front.
At this time, Zheng Yi walked forward and greeted her with a smile: "Hello, Auntie."
When Sister Wu saw Zheng Yi's appearance, her expression softened and she said kindly:
"Are you my son's friend? You're so beautiful!"
Wang Yiyang quickly grabbed his mother's arm and reminded her, "Mom, don't be like this..." When he saw that the other person was good-looking and looked like a girl of the same age as him, his eyes immediately lit up, and he was not afraid of scaring her.
Zheng Yi couldn't help but smile. This aunt was quite interesting. It seemed that she was also worried about Mr. Wang.
"Auntie, Mr. Wang and I are not really friends. We just collaborated on a project before."
"Seeing you guys are in a hurry to do something, let's not talk for now~"
As soon as she finished speaking, Sister Wu clapped her hands.
"broken!"
"Go, go, son!"
Wang Yiyang turned around and gave Zheng Yi an awkward smile, and was dragged away by his mother the next second.
The girl smiled and shook her head, then continued looking for the bathroom.
The bathroom in Yinsha Shopping Mall has a very good sanitation. Zheng Yi feels that the incense placed inside has a very special smell.
She also specifically asked the cleaning lady, who gave her a photo of the incense.
Zheng Yi sent the photo to Zhu Kai, telling him that the smell was very good and that she had already purchased the exact same product online, which she would probably be able to use the day after tomorrow.
The girl looked at the screen full of self-talk, frowning slightly.
Ugh……
My boyfriend’s meeting lasted so long today!
Zheng Yi returned to the Cantonese restaurant in a daze.
"Daughter! Come quickly!"
Mother Zheng stood up and greeted them warmly.
Only then did Zheng Yi notice that there were two people sitting opposite her mother.
From the back, it looked like a man and a woman.
The next second, both of them turned their heads, smiles frozen on their faces.
Zheng Yi was also surprised. She didn't expect that the fellow villager her mother was talking about was Wang Yi Yang's mother, and she didn't expect that the other party also brought her child.
Wait...things don't seem to be that simple!
Zheng Yi slowed down his pace and walked silently to sit next to Zheng's mother.
As soon as her butt touched the stool, Zheng's mother began to introduce enthusiastically.
"This is the Sister Wu I was talking about, and this is her son, Wang Yiyang." Mother Zheng looked into her daughter's eyes and said sincerely:
"What a coincidence! Aunt Wu couldn't find a place to stay, so she brought her son here."
Ha ha……
How could Aunt Wu not find the place she chose?
Zheng Yi had a forced smile on her face, staring blankly at Zheng's mother.
"We just ran into each other outside, and I said at the time that this child is pretty." Sister Wu touched Wang Yiyang next to her with her arm after she finished speaking.
"Son, do you think Zheng Yi is pretty?"
"Yes...it looks good." Wang Yiyang lowered his head after saying this, hoping that this premeditated blind date would end soon.
Sister Wu put her head in the middle of the table and gave Zheng's mother a mysterious smile.
"Little sister, do you know? These two knew each other before!"
"Really?" Zheng's mother seemed surprised and excited.
Zheng Yi felt the burning gazes from the two elders and repeated herself with gritted teeth:
"Auntie, Mr. Wang and I are not really friends. We just collaborated on a project before."
Sister Wu didn't care at all and retorted generously:
"That's how we met! This is fate!"
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Mother Zheng coughed a few times and Sister Wu looked at her.
"Sister, try their tea, it's quite delicious."
"Okay, okay, let me try it!" Sister Wu picked up the cup and took a big sip. She looked really thirsty.
After a few minutes, the waiters brought the dishes one after another, and the four of them started eating while chatting and laughing.
When they were halfway through the meal, Zheng's mother suddenly realized that the person sitting next to her looked familiar. She secretly touched her daughter's arm and asked with narrowed eyes:
"Look who's sitting over there?" Zheng's mother said with a sigh, "Hiss... he looks so familiar."
blah blah blah!
Zheng Yi's spoon fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Sitting a few tables away were Zhu Kai and Zhao Xiyue, who had come to eat after get off work.
Zhao Xiyue was ordering food when a sudden cold wind blew against her back. She shrank her neck and subconsciously looked back.
Bang!
Zhao Xiyue and Zheng Yi's eyes met in mid-air. Zhao Xiyue's heart exploded with an inexplicable sense of fear. She quickly reminded the man who was looking around beside her:
"Zhu Kai! Look! Your girlfriend is there!"
Zheng Yi? Following Zhao Xiyue's gaze, the moment he saw Zheng Yi, the man felt relieved, but a sense of sadness and bitterness spread from his heart.
He just took a look at it, then lowered his head as if nothing had happened, flipping through the menu on his phone and casually adding items to the shopping cart.
A fist mixed with violent force came towards Zheng Yi's heart, and the woman felt heartbroken.
But Zhu Kai looked so calm, as if she was an unrelated stranger.
She sat there woodenly, without shouting or crying, but just sat there quietly, saying calmly:
"Mom, you saw it wrong." Then he called the waiter, "Hello, please give me a new spoon."
Mother Zheng actually saw it clearly. For a moment, her anger was about to overwhelm her rationality, but she stopped on the verge of being triggered.
Yes... If Zhu Kai was just her daughter's boyfriend, she would definitely rush over and ask him why he wanted to eat with other girls.
But Zhu Kai is not only her daughter's boyfriend, he is also her biological brother!
And she believed that Zhu Kai must have his reasons for doing this.
Mother Zheng suppressed the anger, pain and confusion in her heart and pretended to be calm while chatting with Sister Wu.
"Try this clay pot rice, the pot is delicious. Let's share some and have everyone try it." Sister Wu recommended enthusiastically, holding a spoon in her hand and busy distributing rice to everyone.
Wang Yiyang also turned around. Zheng's mother's voice was very soft just now, but he still heard what the mother and daughter said. His mother was busy inviting everyone to dinner and didn't notice it at all.
The man frowned slightly, looking at the worried mother and daughter opposite him with confusion. They both pretended to be calm and resolute, which made him reluctant to expose them.
"Mom, give me some rice crust."
