Chapter 80 I thought you knew
Feng Jianxiong hung up the phone call from Hotan Haimo, and in a blink of an eye, he sent another text message to his sister Feng Yiji: Notify her not to make his portion for dinner and not to go home to have dinner tonight.
Feng Jianxiong also put down other things, drove to buy some small gifts to comfort the girl, and then found her residence early according to the address that Tian Haimo had left him.
Although he knew the address, this was the first time Feng Jianxiong came to the door.
After all, this is just a single apartment for girls. It is small and it is not convenient to visit, so I always feel a little embarrassed.
In order to get closer to work, Tian Haimo rented a house just west of the city, not far from Alibaba Company. It is a single apartment with only a few more than 20 square meters, with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom.
The "living" that combines the living room and the dining room is so small that it can only put a narrow dining table and a refrigerator, it is better to say it is an elongated entrance.
When Feng saw Xiong arrive, it was around 6 o'clock in the evening. On April day, it was not yet dark.
When Tian Haimo came to open the door, she could see that she looked a little embarrassed and haggard, but her behavior was still very decent and friendly. She smiled at Feng Jianxiong shyly and apologetically. This made people feel that they couldn't understand these layers of misunderstandings and who owed whom among the human relationships.
Feng Jianxiong is a person who is not good at buying gifts for girls and is not very good at comforting people.
He bought a bouquet of flowers and knew that he could not buy roses, so he was fooled by the flower shop owner to match a bouquet of lilies and tulips.
In addition to flowers, he also brought some exquisite small jewelry. The materials may not be vulgar and noble, but the design sense must reflect the ingenuity.
Tian Haimo was wearing a home dress, but she seemed to be cooking just now, so she wore a maid apron with a gentle style, which looked like the style of Gothel Maid Cos in Japanese comics. She took the gift and let Feng Jianxiong in.
There were only four refreshing dishes on the table, including shredded eel, cherry meat, mushroom and cabbage heart, celery lily, and silverfish tofu soup, which had not yet been served in the pot.
Although it is simple, at least it seems that she made it herself, without takeout.
The garbage in the kitchen has not been dumped yet. Although the garbage bag is tied tightly, because the room is too small, you can still smell the fishy smell of eels from three to four steps away in the restaurant. It seems that she personally killed two eels and made the rosy eel silk.
Feng Jianxiong had originally thought about making some other topics politely. After looking at the delicious food on the dining table, he couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that you are good at cooking. It seems to be better than Nicole, and you usually make it yourself?"
Tian Haimo put the soup on the table, took off the hot apron, and said freely: "It's better than Nicole, and I'm not humble to you. But I don't cook too much and annoyed. Eating alone, who will be patient in cooking? After the company finishes eating, it's time to save trouble."
"Then how did you practice your skills?" Feng Jianxiong was a little curious and turned a destruction.
"Didn't my family run a B&B in Zhouzhuang? My mother used to hire a chef to specialize in Supai specialties. I was idle in middle school, and I followed the side to watch the learning."
Tian Haimo explained while serving the rice, "Sometimes, before the winter vacation of the New Year, the chef took leave to go home for the New Year. But it happened to be the peak tourist season. There were many guests, so I took it over and helped cook - eat first, and then chat."
Feng Jianxiong smiled and took the bowl, picked up the chopsticks and tasted the eel, his eyes lit up, and he subconsciously praised: "Well, the cooking skills are very good, who will do it in the future..."
He originally wanted to say, "If anyone marrys you in the future, he will be lucky." However, he realized that it was a bit abrupt and quickly put the second half back on it.
A complicated look flashed in Tian Haimo's eyes, pretending not to hear it.
Both of them followed the ancient saying of not eating or sleeping well, and looked very graceful. Feng Jianxiong, apart from politely complimenting every dish, praised him for his good cooking skills, basically did not mention anything else.
After chewing the meal carefully for 20 minutes, Tian Haimo brewed a pot of oolong tea that could clear her mouth. She wanted Feng Jianxiong to go to the inner room to drink tea and sit for a while.
Feng Jianxiong took advantage of the time when Tian Haimo made tea and put on gloves to wash dishes.
In fact, he doesn't wash dishes at home. He used to be washed by his sister, but now he has a maid, and neither of his sister or brother needs to wash. However, it's better to be a little polite when visiting other people's houses.
"What are you doing? Let it go quickly. I will wash it when you leave tonight." Tian Haimo put down the tea and persuaded her without being humble or arrogant.
Although this sentence only has a few words, it has a lot of information, which shows how mature she is in dealing with people: first, it is to not allow customers to work, and second, it is to imply that the other party should never be ambiguous, because he will drive him away at night and don’t think wrong.
"There are only three or four bowls in total, and they are almost finished. I have something important to tell you, "Good sooner or later, let's talk about the serious things." Feng Jianxiong didn't listen to the young lady, so he washed the last two bowls a few times.
The eel and cherry meat were not finished, so the dishes to be washed were not too greasy. Tian Haimo sighed, took out plastic wrap from the cupboard, covered the leftover meat dishes, put them in the refrigerator, and prepared to cook noodles for herself with shredded eels tomorrow morning.
...
There is only one dining table in the hall and the smell of food, which is really inconvenient to chat.
Tian Haimo could only lead Feng Jianxiong to the bedroom - she just finished making tea and placed it directly on the desk.
There is only one bed and one nightstand in the bedroom, plus a wardrobe and a desk and chair. This is the only way to go for a single apartment of about 20 square meters.
Tian Haimo gave the chair in front of the desk to Feng Jianxiong, and she could only sit on the bed.
"Sister Momo, I don't want to say much about what kind of friendship we have. You have always helped me. On the phone just now, I also understood your concerns. How troubles are there around celebrities, it is normal to be slandered behind their backs.
However, I don’t want this kind of worry to affect our friendship, or dare not say anything. What else can we hide between us? Tell me the truth, I am apt to tell you, and I will not spread it to you.”
Feng Jianxiong sipped the tea and thought about the entry point of the topic, starting from the perspective that both sides had the most common feelings.
In fact, before he had an intersection with Feng Jianxiong, Tian Haimo himself was already a person who paid great attention to his personal public image and rumors.
After all, she was already a member of the school debate team, the vice president of the school student union, and the number one beauty among the small group of girls in the school student union. It is common for people to gossip behind their backs if they are not careful.
What Tian Haimo has been most worried about in recent years is that she is very hardworking and capable, and has achieved so many achievements, but there must be people behind her who are jealous of her. Legend has it that she needs to gain opportunities by betraying her appearance.
How depressing is this stress?
You can imagine comparison:
For example, Wang Xcong may not be as awesome as a true academic master, but based on his heart, even if he checks his resume, even if he eliminates the buff bonus of elite education, he still has the upper-middle learning ability.
However, because it became a topic figure later, others speculated that "even if such a person is bad at school, his father can buy him a prestigious school." This became the most prone point that Wang Xcong was angry in his life: I was obviously "more than you and harder than you at the same time", but why did the only thing left in the mouth of the little people is "more than you, and the rest are all bought by money"?
The reason why Tian Haimo faces is the same.
She is the kind of person who is very worldly and wants to prove herself, but public opinion always overestimates the role her beauty plays in the success process.
The key to Feng Jianxiong's communication with her was to eliminate a concern: that is, Feng Jianxiong knew that she was not the kind of person who was trying hard to sell favors. Tian Haimo was afraid of misunderstandings from outsiders, so she did not dare to tell the public, but she should not hide it from him. Feng Jianxiong.
There are not many words between the two, but because they are too smart and are too mature in dealing with people, the amount of information will be very large in just a few words.
However, these words made a trace of confusion flash in Tian Haimo's eyes.
She knew that Feng Jianxiong had amazing insight, but as far as she knew, the original Feng Jianxiong had not spent any effort on taking care of girls.
This must have surprised her:
"When did Xiaoxiong suddenly understand girls' concerns so much? He didn't look like him. He used to be so keen and ostentatious. So many jealous Nicole girls in the school were saying bad things about Nicole behind their backs, saying that Nicole's method of seducing Xiaoxiong was too bitch and shameless, and she had never seen Xiaoxiong relieve Nicole. If he had had such a delicate observation of girls' emotions, how could I not dare to tell him?"
Tian Haimo thought about the words and tactfully explained this question.
Feng Jianxiong was stunned: "You...you have seen a long time ago that I didn't take good care of the feelings of girls?"
Tian Haimo admitted with a wry smile: "It must be, in my eyes, you are very loyal to Nicole and are very responsible for your feelings. With your conditions, in the more than a year after you got along with Nicole, you have never spent time outside.
However, you are only responsible and do not spend time guessing Nicole's feelings. You give her money, give her family good material conditions, and spend time with her, and be loyal to her sexual partners - but you don't have the heart to guess the girl's heart.
So, I can't understand why you suddenly become so delicate now. I have to admit that if I had known that you were such a delicate person, I wouldn't have hidden it from you. At most I would only tell you the truth and then tell you not to spread it to the outside world."
"It turns out that in your eyes, I was not interested in Nicole at the beginning. I thought that only Nicole himself felt this way...frailty, thy-name-is-woman!" Feng Jianxiong suddenly felt a little frustrated and couldn't help but make a famous saying from Shakespeare.
Fragile, your name is a woman. Hamletry, even yours is in Old English thy. (you corresponds to thee, yours corresponds to thy)
Why are the girls he meets so sensitive and fragile? Even if he makes diligently to earn money to support his family, spends time with his companionship, and is loyal to his sexual partners, they are still not enough?
As a straight man, Feng Jianxiong himself could not guess the difference between being thoughtful and not being thoughtful.
Especially as a cold and straight male student of law, Feng Jianxiong only has the "unity of subjective and objective" in his dictionary. Both objective behaviors are loyal. Can subjective motivations still be disloyal?
Tian Haimo didn't know why Feng Jianxiong suddenly felt inconsistent and frustrated. She subconsciously retreated a few inches to the bed and comforted her: "What did I say and shouldn't be said? Why did she suddenly feel so touched?"
Feng Jianxiong took a sip of bitter tea and sighed, "Didn't you want to know why I suddenly became able to understand the worries of the girls around me? Because, because I couldn't take care of Nicole's face and inner pressure, she broke up with me - Oh, by the way, do you know that Nicole broke up with me? I discussed it with her, and finally, Todding Lihui played a double act on the small radio. You probably didn't hear it, but Miss Xiaonan should have talked to you, right?"
