Chapter 35

"It was probably when we were in junior high school. One day after school, we passed by this restaurant. Nian Nian was very envious at the time. Later, I said that when I got a job and made money, I would treat her to a meal at this restaurant. Later, we often came here to eat, and this place became our regular place."

Jiang Zhinian raised her eyes from the menu, and Feng Peipei happened to look at her.

This story is actually true, but the roles are reversed. It was Feng Peipei who wanted to come here to eat, but she was the one who treated everyone to dinner.

"That's right, I actually still have..."

“Ding Di—”

Qin Yuming's phone rang and he made an apologetic gesture, so Jiang Zhinian had to shut up.

"Hey, sister, um, yes, I'm eating out... now? I have something to do now, no, I, okay, then I'll go back now."

He looked at Jiang Zhinian apologetically: "Sorry, something happened at home, I have to go first, you guys eat."

He picked up the coat on the back of the chair and waved to Jiang Zhinian: "Well, see you next time."

Feng Peipei smiled and said, "Let's go quickly. Remember to pay the bill."

Jiang Zhinian actually wanted to say that she would not eat, but Feng Peipei held the back of her hand.

"Nian Nian, we haven't seen each other for a long time. It's a good opportunity for us to have some sisterly afternoon tea together."

Qin Yuming left, and Feng Peipei also took off her disguise.

"Oh, I'm so tired."

"Can you tell me clearly what you are acting?"

"Sure, I'm trying to hook him, Young Master Qin, can you tell?"

"Then why did you call me out?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, you are my bait. After fishing for a long time, I have to let him smell the bait."

She and Qin Yuming have known each other for more than a week using the excuse of "best friend helping you to chase the goddess", but during this period, the other party has been encouraging her to ask Jiang Zhinian out for a date.

She had refused several times, and was afraid that the other party would become suspicious if she refused again, so she had to think of a way to trick Jiang Zhinian out.

However, they couldn't really let the two of them have dinner together, otherwise Jiang Zhinian's personality would definitely be exposed, so she chose the right time to reveal the news that "her younger brother fell in love with an orphan girl" to the eldest sister of the Qin family.

So that she could call Qin Yuming away temporarily.

Jiang Zhinian sat in silence: "Pepe, this is the last time I see you, we don't need to meet again in the future."

Feng Peipei rolled her eyes impatiently: "Jiang Zhinian, do you know how many times you have said this since you were a child?"

"I mean it."

"Whatever." Feng Peipei looked unconvinced. Didn't she understand Jiang Zhinian's character? He was as soft-hearted as cotton and had no temper. He always put himself in a low position to consider others.

People like her are destined to be bullied.

"That night, you drugged me and tricked me into the room. You did this. Do you think I can forgive you?"

Feng Peipei chuckled: "Why should I ask you to forgive me? Were you dissatisfied with that night?"

"you……"

"Haven't you been secretly in love with Shi Ye for many years? I've helped you sleep with her now, and I've also given you an opportunity to pursue him relentlessly. It's up to you whether you can seize it or not."

She discovered that Jiang Zhinian liked Shi Ye when she was in college, but she was timid and didn't dare to let him know until graduation.

In fact, her original plan that night was to sleep with Shi Ye herself and then tell Jiang Zhinian about it later. It would definitely be very interesting.

As it turned out, it was such a coincidence that she accidentally found out that the young master of the Qin family was pursuing Jiang Zhinian, and a plan immediately emerged.

In a person's lifetime, there are only a few opportunities to encounter. Whether you can seize them depends on yourself.

Jiang Zhinian had no intention of telling her about his marriage to Shi Ye, so he stood up and wanted to leave.

Perhaps because of the huge emotional ups and downs, she felt dizzy as soon as she stood up.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Jiang Zhinian felt nauseous and quickly covered his mouth with a tissue, retching twice.

Feng Peipei immediately understood and looked at her excitedly: "Wow, Jiang Zhinian, you're pregnant? Whose, whose? It can't be Shi Ye's, right? Sure, then you've got him trapped now."

Jiang Zhinian was pregnant. As long as she let Qin Yuming know at the right time, she would be confident that she could win him over.

Jiang Zhinian calmed down and said coldly: "It has nothing to do with you, remember what you promised me.

Holding the back of the chair, he slowly stood up and was about to leave when Feng Peipei suddenly smiled: "Jiang Zhinian, are you really not curious about that secret? It's very important."

Jiang Zhinian turned his head away, looking uninterested.

Feng Peipei didn't give up and continued to seduce her: "I will only give you this one chance. If you want to know in the future, I won't tell you."

"Are you sure you don't want to listen?"

Jiang Zhinian took a deep breath and quickly left the restaurant.

Feng Peipei was left alone and finished the big meal while taking photos.

…

Because he was too full to eat lunch, but he was afraid that the child would be hungry, after struggling for a long time, Jiang Zhinian finally went to the stir-fry restaurant recommended by Shi Ye downstairs and had a simple tomato and egg rice bowl.

The shop is very clean, and the couple who cook are very kind. Knowing that Jiang Zhinian is pregnant, they boiled the dishes and chopsticks in water before giving them to her.

"Xiaoye often came to our restaurant to eat when he was little. I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he would get married and have children."

"Shi Ye's mother, was she very busy before?"

"Of course not. Doctor Shi is a great doctor, very capable. My husband fell ill ten years ago, and many hospitals said they couldn't treat him. It was Doctor Shi who performed surgery and cured him."

Now that the store wasn't busy, the aunt simply sat across from Jiang Zhinian. "It's just that Shi Ye is so pitiful. He's so young, but he goes to and from school by himself every day. When he's hungry, he comes to my place to eat. He was so well-behaved when he was little. While other little boys were playing in the mud and making mischief, he never came out to play. He just stayed at home reading."

Jiang Zhinian could imagine what Shi Ye looked like when he was a child, carrying a small schoolbag and walking back and forth between home and school every day.

He must have good grades and be the type of student that teachers like. He might even be the childhood nightmare of many kids in the neighborhood - someone else's child.

In that case, Shi Ye must have gone to the primary school where he taught when he was a child, right?

Maybe you can still see Shi Ye’s childhood photos in the school’s alumni directory.

Auntie is very enthusiastic and can't stop talking once she reminisces: "I still remember one time, Xiaoye was sick and almost delirious with fever. He ran to my shop and said he was calling his mother, but no one answered. My husband and I quickly took him to the hospital. The hospital said the doctor was performing surgery, so we ended up staying with him to see the doctor."

She sighed and shook her head: "Poor thing."
