$1514 Love Grows over Time
He rubbed her hair, "Follow me, I'll choose. Just tell me what you want to eat."
Such an intimate and somewhat ambiguous and doting behavior made Zhao Chuning very uncomfortable, even a little resistant. She subconsciously hid back for a while, and Cheng Zheng's eyes flashed a hint of disappointment, but soon returned to normal, "Let's go."
Zhao Chuning followed Cheng Zheng. Cheng Zheng found that Gu Shaocheng was still following them, and he didn't point it out, but he saw what he wanted to do.
——————
"Shaocheng, we all agreed to go shopping, why are you following them?" After following all the way, the female companion next to Gu Shaocheng was unhappy and complained.
"Shh! Keep your voice down, don't let them find out." Gu Shaocheng gestured, "You, retract your feet!"
"Shaocheng~" The woman acted coquettishly.
"Didn't you say that shopping in the supermarket is a must-do activity for couples? Besides, shopping in the supermarket is also shopping. If you feel bored, go shopping by yourself. I'll do my own thing."
Gu Shaocheng was impatient and wanted to send the woman away.
The woman pouted her red lips and looked at the two people not far ahead, "You don't like that woman, do you? Follow her all the way."
"Damn! Holding hands!" Gu Shaocheng just went to talk to his female companion and didn't see the whole story clearly. He only saw this scene. Excitedly, he took out his phone and took two "clicks" and "clicks" to take pictures. He screamed again, "Fuck, they hugged each other! They actually... kissed!"
Gu Shaocheng kept taking pictures with his phone, thinking in his heart whether he could show the things he took to his fifth brother?
This...what if he took his anger out on me after watching it?
On the other side.
Zhao Chuning was actually pushed by the crowd and almost fell down. Cheng Zheng took her hand. With a little force, she fell into Cheng Zheng's arms. The crowd was so crowded that the two stumbled and almost touched each other's lips. From Gu Shaocheng's angle, it was clearly the two of them kissing passionately.
Zhao Chuning had no idea that this scene was being filmed. After she stood firm, she quickly stepped away from Cheng Zheng's arms in embarrassment, "Sorry."
"It's okay, I didn't stand firm." Cheng Zheng shook his head, and raised his long arms like a gentleman, holding her firmly in a safe area.
Zhao Chuning was afraid that the embarrassing situation just now would happen again,
so she stood a little further away. There were already a lot of things in the cart, so she didn't stay any longer. She just said, "It's almost done. Let's go back."
"Okay. If we don't go back, I'm afraid my aunt will be waiting anxiously. Just go outside and wait for me. I'll pay the bill."
"You come to my house as a guest, so I can't let you pay the bill." Zhao Chuning held the coin purse in her hand, "My mother gave me all the money. If I really let you pay the bill, you'll scold me when you go back."
Cheng Zheng couldn't do anything with her. He knew what kind of personality she had, so he didn't insist on it. He just pushed the cart and walked to the queue area together.
He looked around the supermarket, and Gu Shaocheng, who had been following them, had disappeared.
——————
When the two came out of the supermarket, Cheng Zheng naturally carried all the things in his hands.
When they arrived downstairs in the community. Cheng Zheng stopped and said, "Wait for me."
She stopped and saw him walk to the car. From a distance, he opened the trunk. After a while, he was carrying not only the vegetables bought from the supermarket, but also several large and small bags.
Zhao Chuning hurried forward and took the vegetables in her hands.
She looked at the things in his hands, "What are you doing...?"
"The fruit basket and these supplements are for Auntie to replenish her body. These toy dolls are for Xiao Yimi."
"You are too polite. In fact, my mother is not seriously ill."
"It's a courtesy to visit the elders." Cheng Zheng locked the trunk, "Let's go, go up first."
He was already carrying things and walked forward familiarly. Zhao Chuning looked at the back and sighed. If he were a boyfriend or future husband, Cheng Zheng would be very good.
Unfortunately, no matter how good he was, she never moved.
——————
The night gradually deepened.
Here, the family of three plus Cheng Zheng, the atmosphere was not awkward, but always full of laughter.
Although the little girl has always been obsessed with her daddy, this does not stop her from liking this gentle uncle. Moreover, he can tell fairy tales.
After dinner, Zhao Chuning was cutting fruit in the kitchen, and Zhang Rong came in quietly.
"How is it?" Zhang Rong asked.
"..." Zhao Chuning pretended not to understand and continued to be busy with her own things. "Mom, please move aside, I'll wash the knife."
"I asked you a question, and you also made a sound!" Zhang Rong said and moved away.
She made a perfunctory "squeak--".
"You girl!" Zhang Rong was angry and amused, "You just pretend to be stupid, knowing what I'm asking. Look at the two of them..."
Zhang Rong pointed her chin outward. Zhao Chuning looked over as she indicated, and Xiao Yimi was leaning against Cheng Zheng. Cheng Zheng was telling her a story. Compared with Tang Yi, he told stories with more heart. He would compile some new elements into the old fairy tales, which made the little girl listen with relish and very absorbed.
In this respect, Tang Yi is far behind him.
But why did he think of him again?
A bitter feeling welled up in his heart. Zhao Chuning shook his head and shook that face out of his mind.
I only heard my mother's voice muttering in my ear: "Mom, I can see that he really likes you. Look how patient he is with Mimi! Didn't I tell you to find someone who can treat Mimi as his own daughter? I think he is the right one!"
"Mom, don't just match them up casually. I don't have that idea."
"I'm not asking you to be with him right now. Just marry him. I know that's unrealistic. Mom means that you don't have to reject him out of the blue. Just treat him as a friend and get to know him. Maybe after a long time, you will suddenly feel something for him? It always makes sense that love grows over time. "
"If after a long time, there is still no love, isn't it a waste of time for others?"
"You still know the meaning of 'delay', look at what you have done to yourself." Zhang Rong muttered: "I have to tell you first, your father and I are satisfied with someone like Cheng Zheng. If it's that Tang Yi... Even if he doesn't marry his fiancée now and says he wants to come back to marry you, I won't agree! Irresponsible men will waste their lives!"
Zhao Chuning was silent, with a gloomy look on his face.
She never said anything, but continued to cut the fruit silently. Zhang Rong knew that she knew what was going on, so she didn't say anything more to bother her.
