Cannon Fodder's Rebirth
Chapter 34 Birthday Eve
On November [-]th, Singles' Day, a week before Jiang Xi's birthday, Zhong Yifan unexpectedly received a call from Tong Le, saying that he wanted to have a private talk with him.
Regarding Tong Le, Zhong Yifan's impression is mediocre, neither liking nor disliking, so he was quite surprised that he suddenly asked him to drink coffee and chat in a serious manner.
"Why did you think of asking me out for a drink?"
The place Tong Le was looking for to drink was not far from Zhong Yifan's school, part of the reason why he wanted to find Zhong Yifan today was Tong Huan's instigation.
The last time Tong Le's family went to see Cheng Zhiyuan, Tong Huan's suggestion of a 3P was rejected by Zhong Yifan, and he felt uncomfortable all the time.Compared to his cousin's displeasure, Tong Le felt that Zhong Yifan's gesture of rejecting his brother's proposal was quite manly.Especially when telling him not to learn everything from his brother, Tong Le even had the idea that Zhong Yifan is his brother. Although it is true that he and his cousin are related by blood, it is not so ignorant that they can't tell the difference between good and bad. To the point of stink.
Maybe there are some other thoughts in mind, Tong Le began to ask his cousin about Zhong Yifan frequently, coming and going again and again, no matter how dull Tong Huan was, he could hear something.
However, Tong Huan warned his cousin at that time that it is better to love oneself than to love anyone in this world, and all the vicissitudes of life are all jokes.As a human being, live in the moment and enjoy the moment.For example, his father and his young mother, one buys youth with money, and the other trades youth for money, each takes what he needs, and no one loses money. In the future, when someone earns enough money or thinks youth is old, they will make two separate episodes and exchange for another. fresh.
This is the reality in life, love is a fairy tale, and fairy tales are all deceiving children in story books.
Brainwashing is brainwashing, but Tong Huan really didn't forcefully stop Tong Le's yearning for Zhong Yifan, not because of anything else, but because he couldn't understand Jiangxi's special status in Zhong Yifan's heart.Or maybe Zhong Yifan likes the new and hates the old and has no interest in him anymore, but Tong Le should be newer than Jiang Xi, right?
So, Tong Le sat down with Zhong Yifan to drink something today.
It seemed too abrupt to suddenly ask Zhong Yifan out just to have a cup of coffee together, but fortunately God gave Tong Le a reasonable reason.
"I'm sorry, Brother Fan. It's actually about Uncle Cheng. I accidentally overheard it when my dad was talking on the phone with Uncle Cheng. I think I should tell you."
"Oh? Why do you think he should tell me about him?" Stirring the coffee well, Zhong Yifan took out the coffee spoon, took a sip, and glanced casually at Tong Le from above the cup.
Based on the relationship between Cheng Zhiyuan and Tong's family, Zhong Yifan has reason to believe that Tong Le and his family are 100% aware of their father-son relationship.If that's the case, he really can't think of why Tong Le would tell him about Cheng Zhiyuan. He should know that he doesn't want to hear it.
"Because, after all, you are Uncle Cheng's biological son!" Seeming to be somewhat aggrieved by Zhong Yifan, Tong Le's expression was a bit resentful: "I heard that Aunt Su asked her nephew to go to the hospital last month. Learning to do business with Uncle Cheng, even my dad can see that Aunt Su is making it clear that she wants her nephew to take over Uncle Cheng's property in the future, I think this is too unfair to you, Brother Fan."
The Aunt Su that Tong Le was talking about was Cheng Zhiyuan's wife, Su Huijuan.
"Is this what your father asked you to tell me?" Zhong Yifan's eyes curved into a smile, but the smile was unclear.
"No." Tong Le scratched his head: "Uncle Cheng said that you are not interested in doing business, and my dad has comforted Uncle Process many times. I want to tell you what I want to tell you, because no matter what I think, I will replace you." You don't think it's worth it. It's a matter of course for a son to inherit his father's career, so why should Uncle Cheng have to let irrelevant people pick the peaches in the end?"
"It's not considered irrelevant people, they are also relatives." After taking a sip of coffee, Zhong Yifan's tone seemed more like he was comforting Tong Le.
"But after all, you are the son and the legitimate heir. Aunt Su is really mean." As Cheng Zhiyuan's friend, Tong Le's parents often say that Cheng's wife is mean.They considered from the perspective of their friends' interests, and always felt that if Su Huijuan had treated Zhong Yifan a little better when Cheng Zhiyuan first brought Zhong Yifan to City B, the relationship between the two fathers and sons might not have developed to the point it is today.
"Thank you for coming to tell me this." Zhong Yifan raised his hand to look at his watch, and changed the subject: "Would you like some dessert?"
The action of looking at the watch has already hinted at the willingness to end the meeting, and Tong Le is not so blank, so he naturally refuses and says no.But before breaking up, he also added that his parents really hope that Zhong Yifan can sit at their house and have a light meal when he is free.
Zhong Yifan naturally couldn't say that he would never go, so he just perfunctorily expressed that he would bother him if he had the chance.This kind of answer made Tong Le feel that there should be a chance to win the moon first, and immediately couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and smiled so hard that his teeth couldn't see his eyes.
As soon as they separated from Zhong Yifan, Tong Le's father called and said that a friend sent fresh seafood today, and asked him to call Tong Huan, and the two brothers went home for dinner together.
After dinner and the children's music meeting with Zhong Yifan, the excitement hadn't passed yet when his cousin poured cold water on him and asked if he had thought about who would go up and who would go down if they were really together with Zhong Yifan in the future.
This bit of Tongle is quite refreshing, frankly speaking, this is not a problem, the choice is in Zhong Yifan's hands.Tong Huan gave him a hopeless look, but the two brothers made an exception this night and did not roll together.
After Zhong Yifan dismissed Tong Le, he went directly to school to pick up Jiang Xi for dinner.
The two of them ate half of it, and he received the news that Cheng Zhiyuan was hospitalized.
The call was made by Cheng Zhiyuan's assistant. Although it was high blood pressure that caused the sudden fainting, it is not a good sign for a person under 50 years old to be so tired that he fainted. The doctor said to be careful of the potential hidden danger of cerebral hemorrhage.
The assistant made a special statement that he called Cheng Zhiyuan on his own initiative without telling Cheng Zhiyuan, but both inside and outside the words implied that Cheng Zhiyuan wanted to see him very much but dared not speak.
After hanging up the phone, Zhong Yifan was thoughtful.
Jiang Xi stretched his arms across the table and patted his hand on the phone: "If you want to see him, go there." Having died once, he knows better what life is impermanent.
"Do you think I should go see him?"
"I don't know." Jiang Xi shook his head: "But I can see that you don't care about him at all. Since you hesitate, don't leave yourself with the regret that you want to raise a child but don't want to be loved."
Zhong Yifan was told what was on his mind.
Even if he didn't like to learn oil painting by himself, Cheng Zhiyuan deliberately airlifted the world-class quality painting supplies from abroad for himself.As large as a high-end canvas that can keep the painting never changing color, as small as a sketchbook, oil brush, turpentine, coloring oil, varnish, fixative and so on.After all, people's hearts are fleshy. After six years of being flattered by a person who worked so hard to please him, it is impossible to be completely indifferent to things like him passing out and being hospitalized.
This kind of relationship is very entangled. It can neither be forgiven nor completely ignored. In the final analysis, the bond of blood is too strong. The relationship between father and son is always given by God, and you can't return it if you want it or not.
"Tell me, what would you do if it were you?" To see him?Still indifferent?
This kind of emotion is actually difficult for outsiders to bring in. If Jiang's father was hospitalized, Jiang Xi would have to fly over to visit the sick immediately with two wings, but the other party's father-son relationship, it is really difficult to give a proper opinion. Disaster.
"If you still care about something, go and have a look! Do you really not care about what Tong Le said? It's good to go and find out what's going on there." Zhong Yifan is now reporting to Jiangxi Wanshi , Naturally, it also includes drinking a cup of coffee with Tong Le before eating.
"I don't care about his money." This is the truth, what people care most about is often what they lack the most, what Zhong Yifan lacks is not money.
"I know, there's no need to snatch what's not yours, but there's no need to deliberately let it belong to you." Even if you really don't want it, it's good to donate to charity.
Staring into Jiang Xi's eyes for a moment, Zhong Yifan suddenly smiled as if he was relaxed: "Understood, you are helping me find a reason to convince myself to go see him over there."
"It's not all, you should get more." Jiang Xi didn't say anything more, but it was definitely not just more monetary compensation, but also Cheng Zhiyuan owed his son's fatherly love.It just seems that this father can't find any better way than compensation with money. If this is the only way he can express his love to his son, Jiang Xi hopes that Zhong Yifan will try to accept it, just to make up for some of the missing things in his heart. That part of family affection.
"It's enough for me to have you." Knowing what Jiang Xi's unspoken words implied, Zhong Yifan's eyes darkened, but his affection was revealed without concealment.
His heart skipped a beat for this sentence, Jiang Xi didn't dare to meet his eyes, for fear that he couldn't help but rush forward and kiss him in the restaurant.
Although he is very pleased with his position in Zhong Yifan's heart at this moment, Jiang Xi understands that the love he gives can never completely replace the affection given by his parents.If possible, he still hopes that Zhong Yifan can try to accept Cheng Zhiyuan's compensation to some extent. Even though this father has been selfish and made irreversible mistakes, it cannot be denied that his love these years is true, and he hopes that his son will live The feeling of being happier is also true.
On the point of wishing Zhong Yifan to be happy, Jiang Xi thought that there was no conflict between him and Cheng Zhiyuan.
"I will always be here, by your side." This sentence was said by Jiang Xi many years ago on that night when the situation changed.This mood has never changed.
Zhong Yifan remembered this, but he didn't believe it at the time, but now he firmly believes it.
"Don't eat, check out and let's go!"
Before the dishes were all served, Zhong Yifan paid the bill quickly and dragged the people into the car.With one kick of the gas pedal, the car was driven into a secluded alley, the engine was turned off, Zhong Yifan hooked across the river and kissed him hard.
It was a gentle kiss that wiped away the past, with domineering brute force, it hurt Jiang Xi's tongue, and the corner of his own lips.
Going with the flow, Jiang Xi had already realized the consequences of the car shock, and when his fingers actively fumbled for Zhong Yifan's belt buckle, his wrist was suddenly pinned down.
"I don't... mean that." Zhong Yifan's voice was suppressed, but what was deliberately suppressed was clearly not desire, but a slightly choked hoarseness.The mood at this moment is not mixed with the slightest desire.He just wanted to kiss the other party, wanted to feel the reality of the other party in his arms, wanted it very much, and couldn't bear the thought of it for even a minute. "I just want to hold you like this..."
Hugging Jiangxi tightly, Zhong Yifan rested his chin on the shoulder of the person in his arms, real warmth rose from his chest.Hugging this person is like owning the whole world again.
Six years, and the harm caused by a young age, not just anyone can stick to that sentence.
In the beginning, he also complained countless times about God's injustice, but at this moment, he really wanted to be grateful, wanted to kneel down and kiss the earth to thank God for giving him such a lover.
Regarding Tong Le, Zhong Yifan's impression is mediocre, neither liking nor disliking, so he was quite surprised that he suddenly asked him to drink coffee and chat in a serious manner.
"Why did you think of asking me out for a drink?"
