Chapter 22

When Rong Hua rushed to Rong Ci's house overnight, he found that he was lying on the reclining chair again in a trance. Rong Hua was speechless. He came in through the window, ran over and pushed his arm, "Get up, I heard some movement next door, take me over to have breakfast."

Rong Ci's arm avoided her hand, and said in a low voice, "Go by yourself."

Rong Hua noticed that his face was wrong, so he asked him, "You didn't sleep well?" Rong Hua knew that if this person couldn't sleep well and was woken up, he would lose his temper.

Rong Ci didn't even look at her, and said, "I've already eaten it." The truth was that he didn't eat anything, he just felt suffocated in his heart, a breath was stuck in his throat, and suddenly he lost his appetite. Dropped the chopsticks and left. He didn't even know what happened to him.

Rong Hua also believed his words and said, "Okay then, I'll go look for A Li first. In the afternoon, I'll invite you to eat at Lin Kee Restaurant. Today is your birthday."

Rong Ci hummed, and Rong Hua left him and ran to the next door impatiently. As soon as Rong Hua entered the room, he ran over and hugged Ling Li's arm, snuggling on top of him, and acted like a coquette very intimately. Su Jingyang was no stranger to her, and always felt that she was pinning her emotions on Lingli.

Ling Li was actually not used to talking to her like this, but every time he heard her soft-spoken tone, he felt a little soft-hearted and couldn't push her away.

Ling Li heard that she had not eaten breakfast yet, so she was going to the kitchen to serve her porridge, and she said, "Ali, sit down, I will go by myself!" Then she pressed Ling Li back, who had just stood up, excitedly. Run to the kitchen to get a bowl of porridge. Su Jingyang just came into the water tank to scoop water, Rong Hua glanced at him, his eyes moved slightly, holding the porridge bowl and pacing beside him, smiling, "Jingyang, you know A Yi Is it your birthday today?"

"I know." Su Jingyang got angry when he mentioned it, threw the water ladle back into the water tank, straightened up and said to Rong Hua, "I insisted that I cook longevity noodles for him, but I didn't eat the last bite after making it for a long time. ! I think he was playing with me on purpose."

Rong Hua was very surprised when he heard the words, "He didn't eat? He said he did."

Su Jingyang said, "I didn't make the other food."

Rong Hua looked at his face for a moment, then suddenly shook his head and sighed, his expression was filled with endless sadness, and his tone was trembling, "Ayi he... very pitiful, father is gone, mother is not in pain, So it is inevitable that you will be sad when you are living, and it is definitely not intentional to play with you."

Su Jingyang had already guessed that his family might not be happy, so he didn't say anything unexpected to Rong Hua, but couldn't help but ask softly, "Damn...why don't you love him?"

Rong Hua said sadly: "I don't know, how do I know, anyway, his mother treated him badly since he was a child, didn't care, and even avoided it, only loving her precious little son. After Ayi's father was gone, that woman It was even more arrogant. She was caught once when she cursed A Yi, and cursed him to death. My poor A Yi, how much hurt has been hurt in his heart, but he always held back and pretended not to say anything. A look of nothing."

Su Jingyang was stunned and couldn't believe it. After a long while, he said, "How can there be such a mother?!" Cursing his son to death? And they are all people in Rongcheng, so the so-called curse should not just be an empty curse.

"Why not? Mother and father have never been pronouns for good people. There are many bad people who are father and mother." Rong Hua snorted, his eyes were cold, "She did more than this disgusting thing, anyway, A Yi Growing up so big, she suffers a lot. If she wasn't A Yi's mother, I would have done it a long time ago."

Su Jingyang saw that Rong Hua's expression should not be a lie, and there was no need to talk about this panic.

Su Jingyang's anger also dissipated, and he couldn't help but start to think, could it be that Ayi couldn't eat just now, not because he ran to be a light bulb, but because he suddenly thought of his family members who were so sad?

Seeing that he was thinking, Rong Hua was no longer as annoyed as before, so he struck while the iron was hot: "I'll go to Linji's in the afternoon to invite Ayi to dinner, then let's help him celebrate together. The crowd will be more lively, this way Maybe he feels better."

Su Jingyang raised his eyes to look at her. Seeing her earnest face, he nodded and agreed, "Okay, A Li and I will prepare in advance." He is not such a stingy person.

Rong Hua laughed immediately, winked at him pretty, and then went out to find Lingli with the porridge bowl in his hand.

Rong Hua ate two bowls of porridge and a plate of small spring rolls, and after they all set off for Lin Ji Restaurant, she returned to Rong Ci's house contentedly, still humming a little song.

Rong Ci had already sat up, folded his arms, and stared at her with sullen eyes: "What nonsense were you talking to that guy just now?"

Rong Hua was questioned by him, raised his eyebrows, and asked in a series of questions: "Where am I talking nonsense, what I say is true. Is your mother treating you well? Didn't your mother curse you? , curse you to die soon? Don't you feel bad when you see your mother being so kind to your brother for so many years?"

"I'm not uncomfortable at all." Rong Ci was firm, he was speechless for a moment, then looked at Rong Hua and said solemnly: "You don't understand, don't talk to him about this in the future."

"Okay, don't say it! I'm nosy." Rong Hua rolled her eyes, remembering something, and she said to Rongci again: "By the way, the wizard is about to leave the customs. After half a month, you can do it. Take Ah Xuan back and let him have a look." Rong Hua said Ah Xuan's name and his eyelids twitched. Rong Hua scolded irritably in a low voice, raised his hand and patted his eyes to make it stop jumping.

Rong Ci hummed to indicate that he knew, and when he heard something in his ear, he turned to look out the window, the corners of his mouth twitched twice.

Rong Hua was also amused, "Yo, your infatuated chicken is here again."

Rong Hua specially chose to go to the Lin Kee Restaurant in the afternoon, thinking that there were relatively fewer people eating at that time, but after going there, he found that it was still full of noise. As soon as Rong Hua arrived, he rushed to the kitchen to help Ling Li, but in the end he couldn't help, because she couldn't get her gloves, so Ling Li took the time to push her aside and sit down, stuffing the quick chicken cake. Just feed her and let her wait.

Rong Hua had to wait there obediently, and then ate the chicken cake, his eyes moving with Ling Li's figure.

Rong Hua always showed an extraordinarily well-behaved side in front of Lingli, as if she was not the ruthless little Rakshasa in the eyes of Rongcheng's people at all, but just a good and worry-free child.

During the period, Ah Xuan ran in and saw her eating, so he ran over and pestered her to feed her. Rong Hua pinched the remaining half of the chicken cake, his whole body stiffened, staring at Ah Xuan who was lying on his knees with his mouth open waiting for her to feed, as if he was suffocated for a moment and didn't know how to move. It was the wet nurse who came to pick up Ah Xuan, then took him something to eat and took him to play in the yard.

Rong Hua stroked his heart and let out a sigh of relief, and then he continued to eat again tremblingly. The more Rong Hua ate, the more panic felt in his throat, Rong Hua thought, his brain seemed to be broken.

Su Jingyang was greeting guests on the second floor of the restaurant. There were several guests at one table who were introduced by Liang Lu. They often came over. Everything else was fine. . Su Jingyang doesn't drink very well, and every time one cup passes through his throat, he gets dizzy and hot, and after two cups, he walks swayingly.

Su Jingyang said something, this time he was allowed to drink only a shallow drink, so he drank it happily, and greeted him with a smile, and then he broke free from the dinner.

Alas, being a boss is not easy.

Su Jingyang raised the back of his hand and touched his cheeks that were starting to warm up. He was about to go downstairs, and when he reached the entrance of the stairs, he happened to see Rong Ci who was going upstairs, with black clothes and tight hair and grim eyes.

The eyes of the two collided, and their steps stopped at the same time.

Su Jingyang was not drunk and could still recognize his face, remembering what Rong Hua had said, he took the initiative to say to him, "I've reserved a box for you on the second floor, it's in the innermost one, you go and sit first. on."

Rong Ci didn't move, frowned and looked at him: "...Are you drinking?"

Su Jingyang smiled, because his cheeks were flushed with alcohol, and his tone of speech was slower than usual, sounding lazily, "I drank a little, what's wrong?"

"You do business, what do you drink during the day?"

"Naturally, it is to accompany the guests to drink." Su Jingyang said: "The customer is God, there is no way."

Rong Ci's face darkened slightly, staring at him and said, "There's no way, you can choose not to drink."

Su Jingyang thought it was funny what he said, and he didn't want to socialize with what he said, so he said, "Why don't you drink it? They spend money to buy my wine and give it to me, isn't it worth it?"

Rong Ci was angrily laughed at him, "I always thought you were stupid, I can't see that you are so shrewd and able to settle accounts."

Su Jingyangquan took his irony as a compliment, and said shamelessly, "I've won the prize."

He continued going downstairs and just stopped at the upper two stairs of Rong Ci. At the entrance of the stairs on the first floor, Liang Lu suddenly appeared there and waved to him cheerfully: "Boss Su, come downstairs!"

"Hey! Immediately!" Su Jingyang happened to be looking for Liang Lu for something, and when he heard him coming, his expression instantly lit up. He stopped arguing with Rong Ci, and immediately bypassed him and ran downstairs, dragging Liang Lu to the counter.

Because the business of Lin Ji Xiaoguan was unexpectedly good, Su Jingyang mainly wanted him to help recruit a second shopkeeper to come here to fight, otherwise he and Ling Li would be really exhausted.

Su Jingyang asked Liang Lu to help a lot before. Originally, this trivial matter should not bother him, but the situation is a bit special. Lingli is worried that he will recruit people with ulterior motives to find out his existence. At that time, the reputation of Lin Ji Xiaoguan will be bad because of him. Lose. Su Jingyang also understood his concerns. He felt distressed but couldn't do anything about it. After much deliberation, it was safer to look for Liang Lu.

Because of the noise in the lobby, Su Jingyang's voice was very low. Liang Lu leaned on the counter and leaned closer to listen. After listening, he suddenly noticed something, turned his head to look, and found the black-clothed boy on the stairs. His eyes were as sharp as a knife, staring at him.

Liang Lu raised the corners of his mouth leisurely, but did not make a sound.

Su Jingyang noticed that Liang Lu suddenly looked away and stopped talking, so he followed, only to find that Rong Ci had been stuck there without moving. Su Jingyang thought it was strange, so he said to Liang Lu, "Wait a minute." Then he walked around the counter and ran up the stairs to ask Rongci, "Why don't you go in? Can't you find a place? It's not big upstairs. , very easy to find."

Remembering that this person had never been to the box before coming to eat, Su Jingyang had come over, so he simply showed him the way in front of him and led him to the only big box in the store.

While pouring tea for him, Su Jingyang said cheerfully, "I specially reserved it for you for your birthday. It's interesting enough."

Rong Ci was looking at the environment of the box, when he heard the words, he suddenly looked back at him, "You specially reserved it for me?"

"It's not me, it's not me." Su Jingyang hurriedly denied it, and then smiled at him with bright eyes, "It's not me, so guess who it is?"

Su Jingyang's meaning is obvious, that is, Lingli.

In fact, it was indeed Ling Li who pushed the booking of a regular customer, and wanted to vacate the box for Ayi to live.Don't say it, but it's not uninteresting to him.Lest he always keep a cold and stern face like someone robbed his wife.Su Jingyang had already decided to warm up the scene later, so he took the opportunity to pull Rong Hua out, so that he would not be disgusted by glowing and hot inside again!

As soon as Su Jingyang's denial came out, the inconspicuous curvature of the corner of Rong Ci's mouth fell back instantly. As soon as the words behind Su Jingyang fell, Rong Ci's eyes were cold, and he said to him with a cold face and a very poor tone:"Don't guess, go away."
