Chapter 27.9: A quiet life
Yang Wei Qi said: “Hey, you did not see He He?”
“She went downstairs to see the Barbie doll.”
“I go and find her. I also want to look at those dolls.” She left the two men after finished talking.
Zheng Xie quietly drink the tea that has become cold.
After a while, Cen s.h.i.+ said: “It is getting late. We wait for them in the parking lot.” He looked for a waiter and asked for the bill.
Zheng Xie was looking down at his phone when Cen s.h.i.+ asked for the bill. He did not see when Zheng Xie put down the phone. As he reached for the bill, Zheng Xie looked up and hold his wrist. “Let me take this bill.”
On the surface, Zheng Xie seems to only grab his hand lightly but in fact, Zheng Xie buckle the finger on the back of his hand. It seems like he is using all the strength because Cen s.h.i.+ felt like his bones is about to be broken. Even the blood flow felt like it had been blocked on his aorta.
The waiter waited quietly for the result of their dispute completely unaware that from the innocent appearance, the poor innocent hand is facing the risk of a fracture.
Cen s.h.i.+ gave a hollow laugh or two and then effortlessly loosen the bill. Zheng Xie at the same time, let go of his band while saying softly: “Thank you.”
Cen s.h.i.+ said: “I should be the one that say ‘Thank you’. Thank you for letting go of my hand and for buying me tea.”
After the waiter left, Zheng Xie said coldly: “You should know why. Treat her better. If you dare to make her sad one more time, believe it or not, even if you are in c City, I will make it hard for you too.”
“Of course I believe. But Mr Zheng, the treat you are extending this time is very mediocre. It is too detrimental to your style. If the words get out, people will laugh. Many years ago, the way you threaten me is way more elegant than how it is now.”
Zheng Xie put his phone into his pocket, got up and left.
Cen s.h.i.+ smiled behind him and said: “Do you know that, Mr Zheng Xie, since ancient time, people who threaten their son-in-law, later will be sad when they discover that their daughter is no longer theirs. It is a reality.”
Zheng Xie did not even turn to look back. Che s.h.i.+ laughed and laughed. Depression swept away.
Cen s.h.i.+ got into the driver seat to drive the car, He He lying in the car motionless.
Cen s.h.i.+ pushed her: “Hey, don’t fall asleep. Fasten the seat belt.”
He He looked up and took a few deep breaths. Her chest felt the tightness. She opened the window to the maximum. The north wind whistling outside the window with some snow drifting into the car. Several sheets of paper in the car where blown away.
