His Majesty is Scheming - C221
Just as Ling Mengzhu was about to get on the bus to go home, her phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was Long Zhenghao. Thinking that he was going to keep her busy again, she accidentally picked up the phone, just as she was about to press the button to cut off the connection.
“Hey, Zhu Zhu Zhu, where are you?” Long Zhenghao asked directly.
“Ugh …” I’m on the side of Baian Road. ” Ling Meng Zhu looked around and confirmed that this was the Bai An Road.
“Alright, I’m heading in the direction of the Hundred Peace Road, wait for me for a moment.” Long Zhenghao hung up the phone. Ling Mengzhu couldn’t help but roll her eyes as she listened to the ringing phone. She really couldn’t understand why she told him so honestly that she was at Baian Road. Weren’t you always reminding me to distance myself from him? He’s always so hopeless at critical moments, sigh.
Standing on the side of the road, she felt that she might not be able to stay, but what Long Zhenghao said about her walking on the road was probably a lie. However, there was one thing that was true. He would soon appear in front of me. Should I wait for him or not?
While she was still hesitating about what to do next, the familiar A8 car had already stopped in front of her and the window slowly rolled down. Long Zhenghao’s handsome face was revealed as he smiled at her, “Zhu Zhu Zhu, get in the car.”
After hesitating for a moment, Ling Mengzhu opened the car door and got in. The car started up and shamefully blended into the bustling traffic.
“Why are you here?” Long Zhenghao looked at her and asked.
Ling Mengzhu quickly looked at him and said, “He’s wandering here with his colleagues. He’s just about to take a bus home.” She didn’t tell Long Zhenghao the truth, because Long Zhenghao had already forbade her to interfere in that matter.
In order to avoid the topic, Ling Mengzhu took a look at the scenery flying past outside the window and changed her tone, “Mister Long, this doesn’t seem to be the way home. Where are you heading now? “Where are you taking me?”
“Zhu Zhu, don’t call me Mister Long. It sounds really uncomfortable.” Mister Long, it sounds so strange. Half a month ago, she didn’t think it was a big deal when she called him that. Now, every time he heard this, his heart would be broken. This was the purest form of damage.
Ling Meng Zhu stuck out her tongue and changed her words: “Long Zhenghao, where are we going now? “To do what?”
Long Zhenghao… Not much better, Long Zhenghao sighed in his heart and said, “I’ll take you to a place to eat.”
“Maybe another time. Just now, when my mom called to ask if I wanted to go back to eat, I said I would go back.” It wasn’t an excuse, it was a fact, she didn’t want to waste food like that, and she wanted to be talked about by Mrs. Ling.
Long Zhenghao didn’t seem to care as he laughed and patted the back of her hand, “It’s alright, I called back when I was getting off work and said that I won’t go back to eat. Aunt usually listens to me. Pearl, what do you think? ”
Ling Mengzhu was depressed. He was right, Madam Ling was already leaning heavily towards him. Because Mrs. Ling wanted the two of them to remarry more than anyone else, she was too excited to hear that the two of them were going to spend their lives together outside.
“You’re shameless! You can even think of such a despicable method to win over my mom!” Ling Mengzhu disdainfully turned her face away. When she couldn’t speak more than others, she would use these words and this kind of expression to hide her embarrassment. Long Zhenghao laughed out loud. He admitted that he was despicable. If he wasn’t, how could he trick her back to his side?
The car stopped in front of a Vietnamese restaurant. Ling Mengzhu got out of the car and looked at the large words written on the sign, which were like dancing dragons and dancing phoenixes. It was her first time here. Why would Long Zhenghao bring her here to eat?
“Here’s your favorite curry beef. Eat whatever you want. After you’re done, we’ll go play football or go to the movies.” Long Zhenghao pulled her into the shop, and the waiter immediately led them to a table for two and sat them down.
Ling Mengzhu was unhappy as she stared at him and said: “Long Zhenghao, are you forcing me to go out with you? Who wants to go to the movies with you? Who wants to play ball with you? Besides, do you think I look like someone who knows how to play? ”
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to fight. I’ll teach you. As for whether I’m forcing you, everyone has a different understanding of it. Be good and don’t dwell on this meaningless question.” Long Zhenghao looked at the dishes and asked, “Zhu Zhu Zhu, you used to especially like this house’s curried beef, do you still like it now? Do you want to order one and try it? ”
“You can order. You can eat what I can’t.” Ling Mengzhu didn’t care at all, since she didn’t need to pay for it.
Long Zhenghao called the waiter to order the dishes, and pushed the dishes over to Ling Meng Pearl, gesturing for her to order more of her favorite dishes. Ling Meng Yu didn’t nod, but shook her head and pushed the menu back in front of him.
Curry beef was her favorite dish all along, but she really didn’t remember coming to this shop. He couldn’t remember anything about Long Zhenghao’s past! Perhaps this was the fate between her and Long Zhenghao, and in the end, it was impossible for her to be happy.
The dishes were quickly served. Ling Meng Zhu looked at the beef in the bowl and frowned slightly, unable to take down the chopsticks for a long time. When Long Zhenghao saw her like this, he asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Don’t you want to eat? Why don’t we change it to another one? ”
“Can I trade with you?” Ling Mengzhan looked at the boiled meat in his bowl and asked with a smile.
“Sure.” Long Zhenghao pushed the meat in front of her and moved the beef curry in front of him. Ling Meng Zhu placed his hands on the table and frowned as he watched Ling Chen. Then, he picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.
Long Zhenghao didn’t like curry, which was something Ling Mengzhu had known a long time ago. A trace of mischievous excitement appeared on her face. She didn’t think that Long Zhenghao would be so reluctant to eat what she didn’t like. Was it because of her?
“Is it good?” A smile blossomed on Ling Mengzhu’s face as she stared at him with a fixed smile.
“It’s alright, do you want to try?” Long Zhenghao took a piece and gave it to her, coaxing, “Here, open your mouth.”
Looking at the alluring beef curry in front of her, Ling Mengzhu could feel from the corner of her eyes whether she was surprised or envious, but she could not bring herself to open her mouth. To be so intimate in front of such a large crowd was a bit shameful. He shook his head and said, “No.”
“Be good and try one.” Long Zhenghao didn’t budge an inch, his hands still raised motionlessly in front of her.
Ling Mengzhu glanced left and right, and had no choice but to open her mouth to take the beef curry that he passed to her. It was fresh and delicious, much more delicious than what she usually ate. The curry beef here was right, Long Zhenghao was right.
“How is it? “Is it delicious?” Long Zhenghao’s eyes were filled with anticipation, he didn’t believe that Ling Meng Pearl’s taste would change so quickly. Previously, Ling Mengzhu really liked eating the curried beef in this restaurant, so he even dug the chef at home. Later, after the divorce, the cook left the Long family and returned here to continue his career as a curry beef.
“Ugh …” “It doesn’t taste good.” Ling Mengzhu continued to shake her head against her will as she continued to attack him.
As expected, Long Zhenghao’s face revealed a disappointed expression. It was light, making it hard for people to notice. He withdrew his chopsticks and said, “Alright then. You can have some water to cook your meat or you can also order something else to eat.”
“What about you? Why not order another? Don’t tell me you’re in love with curry. ” She had seen him frown at the curry, and she had not believed he would fall in love in such a short time.
“I’m trying to fall in love.” Long Zhenghao laughed and put another piece of beef into his mouth.
Ling Mengzhu pulled the bowl back from him and snorted disdainfully, saying snappily: “Come on, stop putting on an act here. I didn’t see you fall in love before for such a long time, so don’t make it so difficult for yourself to waste this treasure.”
“You’re finally willing to take the beef back? I was still wondering how long you could pretend. ” Long Zhenghao laughed as he looked at Ling Mengzhan’s ashamed expression, which was soon tainted by a hint of anger. His eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
“You’re teasing me!” Ling Mengzhu angrily said. She was so angry that she rushed up to him and beat him up. Her face turned red from her anger.
“I think you were the one who teased me first, right? Is it forbidden for others to retaliate? ” Long Zhenghao raised his eyebrows and smiled at her. The more Ling Mengzhan was angered to the point of blushing, the better he felt, smiling like the spring breeze.
Ling Mengzhu was at a loss for words, as if she had been the one to misunderstand. However, admitting her mistakes was never something she knew how to do. He bent his arm and scooped up two bowls of food in front of him, “I want these two. Continue to be proud of yourself.”
Long Zhenghao didn’t fight over it with her, but picked up the cup of water on the table and took a sip. He watched her eat on both sides and his gaze was warm and loving.
At first, Ling Meng Zhu was eating happily, but after eating a few bites she couldn’t take it anymore. She raised her head and stared at him: “Why are you looking at me? You can’t order more if you want to eat? It’s not like there’s nothing else we can order. ”
Long Zhenghao laughed and drank the water in the cup, “You eat, I’ll eat when you can’t.”
Ling Mengzhu was depressed. How could she still eat this kind of food? Judging from the way he was drinking water, he was probably starving. He couldn’t bear it anymore so he pushed the boiled meat in front of him. “Forget it, I’ll give it back to you. It’s not tasty at all.”
“Thank you Madam.” Long Zhenghao immediately took the boiled meat and lowered his head to eat. As he was eating, he suddenly laughed and said: “Zhu Zhu Zhu, do you know? When you are overbearing, you are even more overbearing than me. This is not good. ”
“So what? Who made the rule that only men could be domineering? “No one has decreed that you must find an overbearing woman. The entire street is filled with gentle and beautiful women, and those Miss Liang and Miss Liu, which one of them …”
“All right, ma’am.” Long Zhenghao interrupted her, and pointed to the beef in her bowl to indicate for her to hurry up. He said, “Aren’t you embarrassed by the public’s jealous words this time? Look at how everyone is looking at you. ”
Ling Meng Zhu turned around and saw that there were indeed a few people secretly looking at her. Feeling embarrassed, she laid down on her stomach and glared at Long Zhenghao, lowering her voice and angrily saying, “Who’s jealous? “Stop stinking here.”
“Fine, you’re not jealous. Hurry up and eat. It’s already cold.”
Ling Mengzhu looked at him. Even though he had compromised, one could tell what he was thinking just by the expression on his face that was not a smile. He couldn’t do anything to him in this public place, so he could only lower his head and eat.
The table finally quieted down, and the two enemies finally stopped quarreling. They finally had a peaceful meal together.
This dinner was a little long. After Ling Meng Zhu contentedly finished the last piece of beef, Long Zhenghao called for the waiter to pay for it. The waiter sized the two of them up with a smile and said, “It’s been a long time since the both of you have come, welcome to come again.”
I haven’t been here for a long time … Ling Mengzhan felt a peculiar pain in her heart. It was such an ordinary sentence, but when she heard it, she felt a very different feeling.
