Epigenetic

Tianlan Plaza, the most golden section of the business district in U City, has four tall buildings in the back, which are composed of a commercial shopping city in the west - the famous Giant Elephant Department Store and three closed Grade A office buildings in the east. The front structure is a spiral sky. The corridor is divided into three floors, and there are open-air cafes and open-air observation decks for tourists to climb up to appreciate the prosperity of the city and visit the steel forest.

Jiang Lai said the day before that his friend would be very happy to lend the clothes to Zhu Weixing, and it would be fine to give them as gifts if appropriate.Tomorrow weekend, with Zhu MSI's consent, I will meet with him at the cafe on the third floor of Tianlan Plaza to hand over things.

On this day, I wish MSI to wait at the destination as scheduled. This place is much higher than his living circle. The consumer group overlaps with that of the Giant Elephant Department Store. Most of the people who come in and out are dressed in fashion and spend extravagantly.

People passing by all cast their eyes on him, Zhu Weixing guessed that the other party must have seen that he is a fake pheasant, and the fake pheasant is like a real phoenix.But he still stood gracefully, without any flinching.The next moment, a pretty girl came to strike up a conversation with a blushing face, asking if Zhu Weixing was a certain celebrity, and wanted to take a photo with her.I was not angry when I was politely rejected by Zhu Weixing. I wrote the WeChat ID and put it aside, and gave me a little wink.

In less than 10 minutes, two more came, and Zhu Weixing, who was not sensitive, dared not stand in the middle of the terrace again, and had no choice but to avoid the corner.

Fortunately, Jiang Lai appeared soon, but there was only one person. Seeing Zhu Weixing, he said that his friend had something to delay and had to wait a little longer, so they could sit down in the cafe first.

The seats in the museum are separated by bamboo fences, surrounded by clusters of flowers, the atmosphere is peaceful, and privacy is emphasized, and the business is very good.

Zhu Weixing and Jiang Lai chose a place along the fence, where you can see the fragrance of plum blossoms in the near and the tall buildings in the distance. The scenery is excellent.

Jiang Lai is obviously not the first time to come here. He enthusiastically flipped through the menu and recommended to Zhu Weixing which drink to drink here. He also said that the environment of this branch is not the best, and the open air is inevitably complicated. few.

Zhu Weixing suddenly said: "I saw you in the old man's house a long time ago."

Jiang Lai was surprised: "Where? When?"

Zhu Weixing recalled: "More than four months ago, the first day of U Art's semester started. You probably don't remember." On that day, Zhu Weixing dressed the staff at the Wushan Bar, carrying the newly issued textbooks for the new semester, Tired and half dead, he came to the old man's house, and when he was wandering around looking for his destination, he ran into Jiang Lai by accident.

Jiang Lai said: "I remember! I went to the Old People's Square on the first day of school, because Ting Zhi just came back from City A that day. I picked him up from the airport, and then we went to the Old People's Square for coffee. You are in the cafe Did you meet us?"

Zhu Weixing: "No, in front of an unknown building, the house is very big, and there are many clematis planted in the garden. You are in the garden, and I am outside the garden. I just glanced at it from a distance. Your hair color is very recognizable. , I will remember it.”

"Clematis...you mean Moonlight Garden?" Jiang Lai remembered.

"Is that place called Moonlight Garden?" Zhu Weixing was curious.

Jiang Lai shook his head: "I haven't announced the official name, but everyone sees that the building is half-transparent and half-white, like a pile of jewels. It is called Diamond Building, Pearl Garden, and Crystal Garden. I think that the house is illuminated by the light. The color is more like moonstone, so I call it Moonlight Garden, haha.”

Zhu Weixing asked casually, "Whose house is that?"

Jiang Lai shook his head again: "I don't know either. The house has been built for nearly ten years. It has not been opened to the public, and the owner has never shown up. It only hires people to maintain it at a high price. It is very famous in the Old People's Square. It is considered an Internet celebrity building. I used to I haven't been in before, but Ting Zhi and I happened to pass by that day, saw the gate was open, and the security guard didn't stop us, so we walked around quietly inside, and we didn't expect to be seen by you." It's also a coincidence.

At this time, there was a noise on the side, interrupting the conversation between the two.

Following it, a man and a woman came from outside the bamboo fence, the fat man and the delicate woman.The man's voice was very loud, and the shouts came from his mouth. He was complaining loudly that the female partner around him was a jerk, and he wanted to change his mind after making an appointment, which almost wasted his painstaking efforts to book a seat in this expensive cafe.

The two people's appearances are extremely inconsistent, but their words and deeds are intimacy. Jiang Lai frowned after taking a look, not only uncomfortable with the mismatching picture, but also dissatisfied with the other party's rude interruption.

"I just said that the environment in the Old People's Square is better." Jiang Lai repeated.

However, Zhu Weixing stared at the man and the woman, with his usual unremarkable expression unable to hide a moment of surprise.

Jiang Lai asked, "What's the matter? Did you see someone you know?"

Zhu Weixing hesitated, or denied it, averted his eyes from there, and changed the subject calmly: "Your friend...doesn't live in U City?"

"Are you asking Tingzhi?" Jiang Lai was still the same as when he first met, he didn't know anything about secrets, and he talked about everything he knew, "Tingzhi lived in U City when he was a child, and our two families are very close. Later... Later, something happened to his family, and he and his mother were left alone, so they moved to his grandmother's house in City A. They would only come back during the Chinese New Year, mostly for sacrifices."

I wish it was inconvenient for MSI to directly ask people about their family affairs, so she made insinuations: "Then he came to U Art to listen, does he also like music?"

Jiang Lai's expression was delicate: "Well...it's not that I said bad things about my good friend behind my back. Ting Zhi studied economics and has a very good brain, but his musical ability...is really not so good. He, he doesn't like music so much. , I feel more nostalgia and nostalgia.”

Seeing Zhu Weixing's doubts, Jiang Lai said carefully: "Tingzhi had an elder... who passed away before, and that person was very important to their family. Even after a few years, Tingzhi still couldn't get out. Well, let me confess, I came here this time with some selfishness in mind. Lou Zhaoyang said that you and Tingzhi have similar temperaments, but in fact they are not. Compared with Tingzhi, I think...you are more similar to his elder. Brother Xuan is more than that. I mentioned it once, Tingzhi should have overheard it by accident, so he went to U Art to be an auditor. Although he didn't admit it and acted indifferent, I knew he would do it, partly out of curiosity, partly On the other hand, I also miss my relatives too much. So I wondered if he would be happier if I could introduce you as friends. Sorry, I am simple-minded and self-assessed, and I didn’t consider your opinions. If you feel offended and want to leave, I understand .”

Jiang Lai made a long speech, and the more he talked, the more frustrated he became. He was afraid that he was too simple and did bad things with good intentions.After confessing, he had already prepared for the worst, but he shrank his neck for a long time but got no response.Jiang Lai raised his eyes, and saw the opposite person's eyes were sluggish, as if in a daze.

Jiang Lai: "MSI? Are you angry? I made up my mind, and I apologize to you." Think about it, under normal circumstances, no one would be willing to be a substitute for others, even relatives and friends.

After calling twice in a row, Zhu Weixing came back to his senses.He explained: "No, I was just a little surprised about the reason behind it, and I don't care. I am also curious about your friend, so I can meet you."

The corners of Jiang Lai's mouth stiffened slightly, and he didn't know whether he should smile: "Then if Tingzhi gets angry later, you have to remember that he must be attacking me, not you, so don't worry..."

Seeing his anxious appearance, Zhu Weixing comforted him and asked again: "Is his name..."

Jiang Lai said, "He Tingzhi."

After thinking for a while, he said, "Tingzhi has followed motherhood since she was a child."

After the words fell, a person came from a distance, thin and tall, with broad shoulders and long legs, chestnut hair was blown back by the wind, revealing facial features.Thin and narrow face, fair skin, deep eyebrows and eyes, different from the two pink macaroons in the seat, black clothes, boots, gray scarf, lack of color all over the body, with an unsmiling temperament, the closer he gets, the sharper he gets.

They are all cold and hanging, and they are completely different from Zhu Weixing.

People came here, but they didn't notice Jiang Lai immediately, but first saw the decorative grand pianos placed along the road.

He Tingzhi stopped, and walked around the piano a few times in a decent manner, interest loomed on his frozen face, and he stretched out his hand to play a few notes.

"For Alice" on the worst street sounded.

Zhu Weixing heard it, and immediately understood that Jiang's evaluation of the other party's music was just for fun.There are no jumping notes, no linking notes, a total of four measures, most of the notes are wrong, and they are played with a serious face.

People are addicted to food.

Sensing a judging gaze on his body, the other party looked here keenly.

For a moment, Zhu Weixing met his eyes.

Both were stunned.

He Tingzhi reacted even worse, threw down the piano and walked towards the table.

Jiang Lai immediately introduced them to the two excitedly.

Zhu Weixing also got up, and it was rare to take the initiative to reach out.It's a bit strange to carry it half way, this etiquette is more formal and more adult, it's not a good way to say hello among college boys.But taking it back now is embarrassing.When he was in trouble, the other party had already reached out to shake his hand, and the temperature of his palm was as cold as that of Zhu Weixing.

Seeing this, Jiang Lai breathed a sigh of relief.

"Order the order, it's time to order, MSI insists that it's only polite to wait for you to arrive," Jiang Lai complained to He Tingzhi, "Who knew you came so late."

"Traffic jam." He Tingzhi explained concisely.

Jiang Lai didn't care, read him again, and unfolded the menu: "I know what you like to drink, so I help you decide, what about MSI?"

Zhu Weixing's gaze skipped over the person in front of him, he stroked the edge of the water glass a few times, curled up and opened it again.

He blurted out, "Apple shake."

After speaking, I saw the two people at the table looking straight at me.

After watching Zhu Weixing, He Tingzhi went to look at Jiang Lai again, frowning slightly, revealing dissatisfaction.

"I didn't tell him." Jiang Lai hurriedly said, and then explained to Zhu Weixing: "Well... Tingzhi has the same preferences as you."

Zhu Weixing didn't make a fuss, just nodded: "It's a coincidence."

Jiang Lai noticed that the atmosphere was a little tense, and smiled to smooth things over: "Well, we all have the same hobbies, it's fate. The apple milkshake here is a specialty, I'll order this too, let's drink together."

Zhu Weixing politely agrees, but sees the opposite person casting unkind eyes, probing and judging, without much emotion.

Zhu MSI pretended not to see, and lowered his head to drink water.

He Tingzhi, who was sizing up people, went straight to the point: "Have we met?"

Wish MSI a meal.

Jiang Lai snatched the white: "Yes, yes, Wei Xing just said that he met us in Moonlight Garden, the day you returned to U City, isn't it a coincidence?"

He Tingzhi raised his eyebrows: "Oh? But I'm not talking about that time."

Jiang Lai was surprised: "Ah? When was that?"

Zhu Weixing wondered if the other party recognized him as the person who played the piano in the music building that night, and said nothing.

But He Tingzhi curled the corners of his mouth imperceptibly, full of contempt and disdain.

Zhu Weixing was surprised by the look of the other party. He put down the water glass and asked seriously: "When did I meet Mr. He?"

This salutation widened the distance between the two who were not close at all, and the table was full of unfamiliarity.

Neither of them has a friendly and gentle personality, and when they lack communication, they each show a cold and arrogant side.

But He Tingzhi is different from Zhu Weixing, he also has obvious aggressiveness.

He said: "There is a way to play dumb, but unfortunately I have a good memory."
