Chapter 81 Chapter 81 Zhuang Youkai, what are you going to do...
After graduation, classmates are scattered all over the world, some go abroad to study, some return to the mainland to work, some stay in Hong Kong... People who used to accompany each other day and night, now it's hard to see each other.
Zhao Manzhi and most people only retain the friendship of liking each other's posts on WeChat Moments, and only the friends in the drama club and Lychee Mousse have more frequent contacts.
Li Ke returned to the mainland to work as an MCN. It was not easy for her to come to Hong Kong Island. Zhao Manzhi, Han Xiaoshuang, and Luo Yuner arranged to welcome her. They checked the time and hit it off. They planned to make a dinner appointment and then go to Lan Kwai Fong.
She told Zhuang Youkai in advance that she would be back later.
After Peiyi left, they lived back in Mid-Levels, closer to Central. Zhao Manzhi's work was convenient, and she would occasionally go to Deep Water Bay on weekends. Both granddaughters were not at home. Guan Yonglin liked Zhao Manzhi to talk to her.
The housekeeper in charge of Banshan was the one Zhao Manzhi had met before. His surname was Ye, and he was from Guangdong. He was thoughtful and had a good personality. He knew that the two of them needed some space to themselves, and most of the time he would not disturb them without their permission. So they lived like they were alone, and just told each other if they were early or late. They
had agreed to have a chicken hotpot for dinner, but none of the four of them ate much. Luo Yuner complained, "I only realized after I started working that it's so easy to gain weight. If I eat a little more, I'll gain weight like a balloon. It's terrible."
Li Ke pinched her fat, "What's there to be afraid of? If I gain weight, I'll gain weight. Everyone has it. Look, I can still wear suspenders like this."
After saying that, she glanced at Zhao Manzhi and Han Xiaoshuang leisurely, "It's Guangyi's Feng Shui that nourishes people. One has a good foundation and the other is young. It makes us look like we were doused with paraquat."
Han Xiaoshuang smiled shyly, "The group mother is still the most beautiful. Different ages have different beauty."
Zhao Manzhi couldn't stand their compliments to each other and wrinkled her nose, "Come on, this is not a business social event, don't say such high-sounding words. What would you like to drink?"
She rarely came to the bar, but she was like a regular customer, completely out of instinct.
Zhao Manzhi is the kind of girl who is very caring. Even if you put aside her appearance, her personality is also shining, and she should be the focus of the crowd.
"Long Island Iced Tea, please."
"Then I want a Martini."
"I... I'll have a Mojito, please."
Zhao Manzhi ordered a glass of Sangria, which was not too strong and had a strong fruity aroma, which suited her very well.
Growing up did not completely take away the little girl's characteristics in her. She still loved sweet things, was not self-disciplined enough, and would watch TV series until midnight.
She was twenty-six years old, plain and happy.
In the past, at school, everyone's topics were nothing more than GPA and crush. After growing up, they sat together and complained about work, and then slowly talked about feelings.
The successful boss Li changed men like changing clothes, and it was common to change them every day or every week. Now I don't know how many younger brothers he has changed, and the speed of replacement is so fast that people can't remember the names of each one. They only remember their code names: 187, Aquarius man, sports student, model brother...
None of them can last long.
Li Ke shook her head, "I found that I have a very low tolerance for men now. The handsome ones are empty-headed, the talented ones are not so good, and some look good and talkative, but they just want other things in you. It's hard to find a perfect match for yourself."
Luo Yuner felt the same way.
She had just broken up with Liu Yifan. The two had been flirting with each other for several years when they were in school. When they really got together, they had frequent conflicts before their first anniversary. Luo Yuner said she was blind.
"Didn't he go to the United States for graduate school? At first, he vowed to me that we would definitely have an overseas relationship. Later, he took longer and longer to reply to messages. He even replied to messages sent the day before the next day, and then told me that he replied with his mind." "
Are people so busy? He always replies with his mind."
"He also told me that the pace is different and I can't keep up with him. Later, a primary school classmate of mine went to the same school as him and told me that he claimed to be single on campus."
As she said this, she fiercely stabbed the silver needle into the olive of the martini to vent her anger.
Han Xiaoshuang sipped her mojito silently without saying a word.
She has never been in a relationship.
But now she is scared by the comments of the seniors and dare not talk about it.
Li Ke comforted her, "It's okay, although it's like that when you are in a relationship, you can see that there are not only negative examples around you."
She turned Zhao Manzhi's shoulders and made her face Han Xiaoshuang, "Look, the most capable woman in Hong Kong Island is right in front of you."
The girls present all laughed.
After Zhuang Youkai confessed in public that time, some people started to pay attention to the progress and set up a "Did Zhuang Shao succeed in chasing his wife today bot" to check in and update every day.
After all, they are not public figures, and the outside world is not clear about their dynamics. The bot can only analyze from the details. For example, some time ago, the two went to Europe and were met by international students on the streets of Paris. The bot received submissions and slowly updated "Suspected success, not sure, let's wait and see".
Everyone is sure that Zhuang Shao, who is so ostentatious even in confession, if he really caught up with her, he would not announce the good news to the world with a loudspeaker?
So if it is not public, it means that he has not caught up with her yet.
Li Ke knew the inside story, but Luo Yuner and Han Xiaoshuang didn't know so much. They took this opportunity to talk to Zhao Manzhi about the situation. "What's the situation now? When do you plan to get married?"
She smiled and took a sip of wine. "Not so soon."
"So you have a plan?"
"I don't know." What Zhao Manzhi can be sure of is that they will get married, but as for when, it depends on Zhuang Youkai.
She can't propose.
Luo Yuner has already started to fantasize, "I see those rich families all send pigeon eggs, your family's Zhuang can't arrange it? When they really send it, remember to bring it to the sisters to broaden their horizons."
Li Ke agreed, "Yes, let me take some footage. This is the real life of a rich family. How can those on the Internet compare? One is more fake than the other."
Only Han Xiaoshuang is the most obedient. She told her that if there is a wedding, she can always ask her to be a bridesmaid to help.
She still wants to witness happiness up close, otherwise she will not believe in love.
As he spoke, the bartender brought over a plate of snacks and said, "The gentleman over there sent it to you, please enjoy."
They turned around and saw a sophisticated and fashionable man looking over here and said hi to Han Xiaoshuang.
The shy girl blushed immediately.
Li Ke was still cheering beside her, "Isn't love here?" Zhao Manzhi reached out to cover her lawless mouth.
If she continued talking, Han Xiaoshuang would have to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
She can't stand being teased.
The sisterhood party lasted until midnight. The checkpoint was closed, and Li Ke went to Luo Yuner's house to stay overnight. Han Xiaoshuang also lived in that direction, so they took a taxi together.
Zhao Manzhi stood at the intersection waiting for Zhuang Youkai.
Five minutes ago, she sent him a message to report that the party was over. Just as she was about to contact the driver, he called her, "I'll pick you up."
Luo Yuner was envious.
"A chairman with a net worth of trillions can personally pick up his wife from work, while some people say they are too busy to reply to messages all day long. Hey, that's the difference."
Li Ke said with a smile, "You know, they are all excuses."
Thinking back to this, Zhao Manzhi's satisfaction was about to overflow.
Of course, Zhuang Youkai doesn't reply to messages immediately or come whenever he is called.
But he will do his best within his ability, even if it is the most trivial things.
The Aston Martin slowly stopped in front of her. This is the glamorous Lan Kwai Fong, where all kinds of luxury cars are frequent visitors, so no one thinks it's strange, let alone knowing that the person sitting in this car is the rumored prince of Huanye.
Zhao Manzhi got in the car, her eyes fell on him warmly, which made Zhuang Youkai feel a little uncomfortable. He stopped at a red light and asked her, "What's wrong?"
But she came closer, looked him up and down, and then kissed his cheek, "So handsome."
After the kiss, she acted as if nothing had happened, and reminded him, who was confused as he touched the lip print, "The green light is on."
There are countless moments in a person's life, and she would fall in love with him again at every unintentional moment.
The Mid-Levels Villa was immersed in the hazy moonlight. Zhuang Youkai handed the car keys to the servant at the door to park the car, and walked through the garden with Zhao Manzhi.
She suddenly cried out "Ah".
The heel was broken and hanging, and the beautiful flesh-colored lace high heels turned into a small animal, opening its mouth with uneven teeth.
"Take off your shoes, I'll carry you."
"It's only a few steps..."
Zhao Manzhi wanted to be reserved, but the man knew that this was her routine, and he had already squatted down, showing her his broad back, "Stop talking nonsense, get on."
She smiled, holding her shoes in her hands, jumped on his back, and rubbed against his neck, and the familiar smell filled her nose.
The moonlight was like a stream, flowing quietly, and the insects chirped among the flowers, like a night movement.
Zhao Manzhi lay on his back, and suddenly remembered the first time she saw him at the Bund Huanye. At that time, she could never have thought that the back that seemed unattainable at that time would now be willing to hold her up and take her home in this most stable and intimate posture.
This is the wonder of fate.
She pressed against the back of his neck, so close that she could even feel the beating of his pulse. Abandoning those cold and heavy titles, at this moment they were just Zhuang Youkai and Zhao Manzhi, an ordinary and happy, lively and passionate couple.
Suddenly, I wanted to keep this moment and make it eternal.
Zhao Manzhi tilted her head to look at the cold moonlight. It was even colder than the day she left Liuyuan Garden, but today the moon was full and the stars were bright, no longer hanging so lonely on the branches.
She had an idea, "Zhuang Youkai, when are you going to marry me?"
The man paused for a moment, and he could be heard laughing softly, "Are you so eager to get married?"
"No." Zhao Manzhi swung her legs, and her two white and tender skin leaked out from under the thin chiffon skirt, like jade, "I'm asking for others."
"What about you, do you want to get married?"
"I really want to at this moment."
She wanted to lie on his shoulder forever, letting him be her boat.
"Don't you need to visit your parents first?"
"Yes." This man really asked knowingly! But Zhao Manzhi pouted again, "But they have a good impression of you, it's just a formality."
It can be heard that if they want to get married, there is no obstacle. As long as Zhao Manzhi nods, they can get married at any time.
Zhuang Youkai curled his lips and looked at the reflection on the ground. They overlapped, like vines entwined with each other, climbing upwards until they grew flowers.
"It will be soon." He wanted to keep his moon more urgently than anyone else, "Soon."
