When tasting delicious food, Wang Meiqi will help Zheng Tiansen pick up some food with chopsticks.
"Tiansen, try this."
“This one’s not bad either.”
Of course Zheng Tiansen couldn't refuse her kindness.
I just said helplessly: "Sister Mikoto, don't worry about me."
Only then did Wang Meicen look at everyone and smile.
"Look at me, I always remember you as the little brother who used to follow me and need my care."
Anyone could see the familiarity and closeness between her and Zheng Tiansen.
Aunt Tong smiled and spoke.
"Are you cousins?" After all, they don't have the same surname.
Before Zheng Tiansen could speak, Wang Meiqin smiled and explained, "No, Tiansen and I are not related by blood. We just knew each other a long time ago and always played together. I'm older than him, so I'm his older sister. His parents are like my own parents, so we know each other very well."
When she heard they were not related, Aunt Tong couldn't help but ask another question. "You are older than Tiansen, so are you married?"
When this was mentioned, the smile on Wang Meicen's face immediately disappeared, and she showed some sadness.
"Okay, Auntie, let's eat." Zheng Tiansen stopped the topic from continuing.
Because of the change in Wang Meicen's expression, everyone had a vague idea of what was going on, so it was not appropriate to ask any further questions.
The already dull atmosphere became even more bizarre because of this episode.
Tong Dazhu originally wanted to drink some wine to cheer himself up, but now he didn't take out the wine.
Perhaps the previous topic affected her appetite, and Wang Meiqi didn't eat much afterwards. After a while, Zheng Tiansen also put down his bowl and chopsticks.
"Miss Mikoto, shall I take you to the guesthouse to rest?"
Wang Meiqin put down her bowl and chopsticks and looked at everyone apologetically. "I'm so sorry to interrupt your meal."
The two of them stood up together.
Zheng Tiansen said, "You guys continue eating. I'll be back after I send Sister Meiqin off."
After saying that, he looked at Linglong again. "Linglong, wait for me."
Linglong smiled. "Brother Zheng, please take care of Sister Meiqin first."
For some reason, even though she was smiling, Zheng Tiansen felt that she was further away from him. He emphasized, "I'll be back soon" and walked out of Tong's house.
As soon as she came out, Wang Meiqin's face was full of self-blame. "Tiansen, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I ruined your wonderful meal. If I had known, I wouldn't have come with you. I should have gone to the guesthouse first."
Zheng Tiansen forced a smile. "Sister Meiqin, how can you be blamed for this? You didn't know Aunt Tong would ask about it. Forget it, let's go to the guesthouse first." He strode ahead, still holding Wang Meiqin's bag.
Looking at his tall and straight figure, Wang Meicen's eyes showed admiration, and she quickly caught up with him.
"Tiansen, do you guys often get together like this for dinner?"
"Of course not. We got together this time because of something."
"Is that so? I really envy you guys. Unlike me, luckily I still have Tianxin to visit me occasionally."
"Misaki-san, you haven't forgotten about big brother yet?"
"Tiansen, is it true and not true?" Her tone became sad.
"I will never forget your brother. In fact, I have thought about moving on, but I just haven't met the right person yet. After all, there are so few people as outstanding as your brother. I've met better ones. How can other people enter my heart?"
Yes, it would be great if my eldest brother were still alive. I would definitely have nephews and nieces by now. Zheng Tiansen also showed sadness on his face.
But he soon cheered up.
The dead are gone, and although we miss them, the living still have to look forward.
"Tiansen, you are such an outstanding person, have you really never had a boyfriend in your life?" Wang Meicen also changed her tone to be relaxed.
"Misaki-san, I don't have the time or energy."
"They're all excuses. I don't believe there are no girls chasing you."
"Yes, but I think they are all too childish."
"So, you like it more mature?"
"Yes and no, Linglong is good enough."
When Linglong was mentioned, Wang Meiqin immediately apologized again. "You said you agreed to have dinner together, but you were late and left early because of me. Linglong, Linglong won't be angry, right? I see you two haven't talked much."
"No, Linglong is a very nice person." But thinking about what happened just now, Zheng Tiansen felt a little depressed again. It was not easy to tell Wang Meicen that his relationship with Linglong was fake.
"Is that so? By the way, is she a relative of Captain Tong?"
"I guess so." Zheng Tiansen didn't want to lie, but it was difficult for him to tell the secret.
On the way to the Tang Hotel, Wang Meicen didn't stop for a moment to inquire about Linglong's situation.
Tong family.
As soon as the two of them left, everyone relaxed a lot.
However, Hao Chunlei and Jie Jie started to worry about Linglong again.
"Linglong, you are not angry with Captain Zheng, right?" Hao Chunlei asked in a low voice. As her relationship with Linglong became better and better, she no longer called Zheng Tiansen uncle.
"No." Linglong smiled.
Hao Chunlei and Jie looked at each other.
"Anyway, I don't like that woman very much. I think she's a bit fake." Jie muttered.
"We were celebrating happily, but her coming ruined the atmosphere," agreed Hao Chunlei.
"Okay, okay, let's stop talking about her and continue eating." Linglong said.
Aunt Tong also looked at Linglong worriedly. Seeing that she always had a smile on her face, she was worried, but because there were so many people around, she held back and didn't say anything.
Tong Dazhu finally took out his wine and started drinking with Political Commissar Hao.
"There's no wine here, it feels like something is missing."
"Fill it up." Political Commissar Hao also likes wine.
Even if Zheng Tiansen came and went quickly, it still took time. Before he came back, Linglong and the others had almost finished eating.
Tong Dazhu and Political Commissar Hao drank and ate food as a snack, while Linglong and the others sat aside and chatted.
"It's a pity I forgot to bring playing cards, otherwise we could play Dou Di Bo." Jie sighed.
"Yes, yes, I don't have any cards at home, so what should we do?" asked Hao Chunlei.
"It's nice to talk." Linglong felt a little tired after cooking for a long time today.
"Then speak."
"My dad said that when the conscription starts this year, he wants me to join the army," said Jie.
"Being a soldier is pretty good. There is no war now, so female soldiers will be less tired." Hao Chunlei felt that if she really couldn't find anything she wanted to do, she might as well follow Jie and join the army.
"So what kind of soldiers do you want to be?"
"I want to be an art soldier and join the art troupe." Hao Chunlei immediately responded.
"I'm a little fat, I don't think the art troupe will want me. Actually, I want to be one too." Jie looked at herself and said with longing.
"The art troupe doesn't just have dancers, there are also singers and musical instruments. Jiejie, you can do it. You have to have confidence." Linglong encouraged her.
"What about you, Linglong? Last time you said you were going to study, will you stay in the cafeteria for the rest of the day?"
"As for me, if possible, I want to open my own shop in the future, whether it's a flower shop, a dessert shop, or a gourmet food shop." She also began to look forward to it.
"Ah, opening a shop? Private individuals cannot open a shop. It seems your dream is not going to work." Hao Chunlei sighed.
"It seems that it is not possible now, but it does not mean that it will not be possible in the future. I believe that individuals will be allowed to open shops and do business in the future." Linglong said freely, she is someone who has witnessed history.
Hearing the three of them talking about their dreams and the little girls' worries, Aunt Tong smiled and took out the soles of her shoes that she had not finished mending and continued to mend them.
Several people seemed to have forgotten the unpleasantness brought by Wang Meicen.
