Chapter 20 The Pounding Sound of the Heart
Chapter 20 The Pounding Sound of the Heart
Zhou Xingjun was obviously taken aback when he heard this, and turned his head to glance at Rong Qingtang.
Rong Qingtang, who was originally excited and ready to watch a good show, immediately lowered his head and tried to reduce his sense of existence. Zhou Xingjun's eyes just now were too terrifying, like a beast whose territory and partner have been violated.
After waiting for a few minutes, Rong Qingtang reckoned that Su Mingxi should be carried over, but when he looked up, he saw the two were still kissing me on the sofa.Rong Qingtang had no choice but to lower his head and continue counting the cracks on the floor.After an unknown amount of time, the chairs beside the dining table finally heard the sound of being pulled away. Su Mingxi and Zhou Xingjun sat on one side, and Rong Qingtang sat opposite Su Mingxi.
No one spoke at the dinner table, this kind of silence often spread between Su Mingxi and Zhou Xingjun, but today there was an extra Rong Qingtang sitting on the side.
Rong Qingtang, who was always talkative, also watched silently as the bottom of the pot was bubbling and bubbling. Since the bottom of the pot hadn't boiled and he couldn't serve the food, and there was nothing stuffed in his mouth, he looked very embarrassed.
It's quite novel that Rong Qingtang, who can chatter, can be quiet. Even Rong Qingtang's family and seniors can't achieve this effect here. In a sense, Zhou Xingjun is also very good.
As an acquaintance of the two parties, Su Mingxi took the lead in introducing: "My husband, Zhou Xingjun. This is my friend, Rong Qingtang."
Zhou Xingjun stretched out his right hand to shake hands with Rong Qingtang. Although Rong Qingtang couldn't show it on his face, Su Mingxi could see that he was uncomfortable.
Zhou Xingjun turned to him and asked, "Have you known each other for a long time?"
Su Mingxi was taken aback when he heard this. After all, he had said before that he would respect each other as a guest. Zhou Xingjun never asked him anything else. Su Mingxi suspected that he didn't even know what his job was.
Probably to avoid embarrassment, Su Mingxi thought about it and answered obediently: "We have known each other for more than 20 years."
The atmosphere around Zhou Xingjun was even colder, and Rong Qingtang returned to his careless look: "That's not true, Xiaoxi and I have known each other since we were young, and Xiaoxi was only five years old at that time, right?"
Su Mingxi didn't notice what was wrong with Zhou Xingjun either, so he smiled back at him: "Yes, I went to elementary school early."
Zhou Xingjun's face darkened again.
Rong Qingtang said reminiscently: "At that time, you were so cute and even shy. It's completely different from now."
As he said that, he took out his phone and unlocked it: "Hey, I remember I still saved photos, I'll look for them."
Zhou Xingjun raised his eyebrows: "I'll take a look too."
Su Mingxi on the side couldn't sit still: "Rong Qingtang! If you show that photo to others again, I will break up with you!"
Rong Qingtang: "Okay, okay, don't show that picture to your husband, look at the one we went on a spring outing when we were young in the first grade."
Only then was Su Mingxi satisfied, but Zhou Xingjun asked, "What's on that card?"
Su Mingxi immediately stood up and covered Rong Qingtang's mouth, and said coldly, "It's nothing."
"Oh." Zhou Xingjun asked again, "Then why can't you let me see it?"
Su Mingxi never knew before that Zhou Xingjun was so curious, so he might as well change his name to the Robot of Hundred Thousand Whys.
Su Mingxi suddenly thought that if he was upset, he could only get revenge by giving Zhou Xingjun a nickname, and he became even more angry for a while.
Zhou Xingjun looked down at Su Mingxi, who was furious beside him, and apologized earnestly: "I'm sorry, do you want to see my childhood photos?"
After such an apology, Su Mingxi felt a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice, "It's okay."
Rong Qingtang on the opposite side showed a toothache expression, he changed the subject: "Didn't you buy the sauce? I'll make some."
Zhou Xingjun took out the sauce ingredients. The sauce ingredients were all boxed in advance, while the chili oil, green onion and coriander were packed in several small boxes separately. It happened that each person had a large box of sauce and three boxes of small ingredients.
After Zhou Xingjun brought the seasoning in the kitchen, he saw that the coriander in front of Su Mingxi was gone, and there were two boxes of coriander next to Rong Qingtang's plate.
Su Mingxi was concentrating on preparing the ingredients when he heard Zhou Xingjun next to him ask, "You don't eat coriander?"
Su Mingxi replied to him: "You can eat it, but I don't like it that much."
Zhou Xingjun asked again: "Why didn't you tell me? There was coriander in yesterday's dish."
Su Mingxi was a little embarrassed, said "ah", then whispered: "I just don't think it's necessary."
Zhou Xingjun squeezed his chopsticks slightly, but he didn't notice it himself: "Wait, you make a list of the things you don't like to eat, and tell me whether you like it or not in the future."
Su Mingxi felt like being assigned homework by the teacher, and he asked, "Then what don't you like to eat?"
Zhou Xingjun is as good as others: "I will list one for you too."
The two were whispering, when suddenly there was a "bang" from the side.Rong Qingtang, who had been ignored for a long time, suddenly put the wine bottle on the table, complaining, "Did I wear an invisibility cloak? Or did you go to another world alone?"
Su Mingxi coughed a few times: "Where did you get the wine?"
Zhou Xingjun: "Wang Anchu bought it."
Su Mingxi looked at the wine bottle puzzled and asked, "Does anyone eat hot pot and drink red wine?"
Zhou Xingjun didn't answer. He was puzzled when he saw the red wine at the time, but Wang Anchu swore that couples would drink red wine, so Zhou Xingjun brought it back after hesitation.
Su Mingxi was even more confused: "Is there no red wine in the villa?"
Zhou Xingjun: "No."
Before Su Mingxi could ask, he replied first: "Because I don't drink well."
Su Mingxi froze for a moment, then bent his eyes and smiled, "Zhou Xingjun, you are so cute."
Su Mingxi smiled so sweetly that people couldn't help laughing with him when they saw him, shining in Zhou Xingjun's ears like sunshine.
Zhou Xingjun suddenly heard the pounding sound of his heart.
