Chapter 834: A faint love, a sad heart

A good family dinner turned into a party. The Zhao sisters were a little unhappy, especially Zhao Ziyan. Seeing Lei Zhengyang's eyes never left, but seeing so many people around him, she couldn't say anything, so she had to worry.

However, Zhao Shuping was still very happy. It was not a small amount of face for these senior military leaders to come to their homes. With his current power, he was demoted to three levels and was no longer the king of Northeast China. He was under the roof and had to bow his head. He also knew very well that if it weren't for the marriage between the Zhao family and the Lei family, Zhao Shuping would have been forgotten long ago.

Lei Zhengyang's arrival secretly solved many problems for him. Of course, Lei Zhengyang also knew Zhao Shuping's thoughts and was very polite to these senior leaders in the army. He was dealing with them very appropriately anyway. Although the Zhao family really didn't have much relationship with him, he was the eldest brother's father-in-law's family and he still had to give face.

After a fight, everyone had a great time drinking, but it was already very late and everyone left. Zhao Shuping was even more drunk. At this moment, Zhao's mother and Lei Zhengxing helped him into the room to rest. It can be seen that he was indeed very happy today.

"Zhengyang, I'm so embarrassed. My old Zhao has been asking for your time again. If you have a good chat, I see that you don't have anything to eat at all. Do you want your aunt to make you something more food?"

Zhao Ziyue felt this was an opportunity and immediately said, "Mom, I think my little sister didn't eat anything. Zhengyang happened to take her out for some midnight snack. When she went out alone, we were not at ease. There was no problem with you being with me."

Lei Zhengyang's purpose of coming today was for Zhao Ziyan. Of course, he had no objection. He stood up and smiled and said, "I forgot if I don't say it. There is a night market in Xicheng. The snacks are good. I have been there a few times. Ziyan, I'll invite you. You will definitely have a feast after you wait."

It seems that she hasn't seen Zhao Ziyan for more than a year. At this moment, she no longer has the youthful atmosphere. She has the fashion of white-collar workers in her mature life. She is indeed a well-known and beautiful urban beauty.

She has learned a lot of things when staying at Longteng International. The employees of Longteng International are all elites. Even if they have a slightly worse education, Zhao Ziyan can make up for many shortcomings.

After looking at Lei Zhengyang, Zhao Ziyan nodded and said, "Of course it's fine. It's okay to have me a meal if I haven't come to my house for so long. No matter how I say I've called you Brother Lei, you can't just call me for nothing!"

Seeing the two left, Zhao's mother was a little anxious and asked Zhao Ziyue: "Ziyue, you don't know your sister's concerns, so why give her such a chance? Wouldn't she be endless?"

Lei Zhengxing said: "Mother-in-law, Ziyue just wants to give them a chance to make an honest announcement. Ziyan can only listen to Zhengyang's words, so don't worry. My third brother will definitely cheer up Ziyan's heart and make her happy. No matter whether she accepts it or not, she will never hurt Ziyan."

Zhao's mother was a little embarrassed and said, "Zhengxing, the Lei family has given us a lot, and we dare not expect to marry Ziyan to Zhengyang, but this girl is determined and has no choice but to give her no way. If it really doesn't work, I will take her out of the capital and go back to her hometown in Northeast China. Don't cause trouble for Zhengyang."

Zhao Ziyue advised: "Mom, you came from your youth. You can't stop your younger sister's feelings now. Let it be natural. I hope Zhengyang really has a way to make her happy. Alas, this guy is too evil, who makes so many people like him?"

Lei Zhengxing curled his lips and thought to himself that it was not his fault for the third brother to grow up like this. Your sister likes him and can still put the blame on him. But just thinking about it, he dare not say such words.

However, this time when looking at Zhao Ziyan, Lei Zhengxing felt that his sister-in-law became more and more beautiful as she grew older. Perhaps her taste became higher and her temperament became very noble. Maybe there is still a chance between her and the third child.

At night, the sky is pitch black, there are no stars or moon tonight, which is not a good day for a date and walk. The cool wind makes this stuffy city more comfortable. The neon lights on the roadside are flashing, and the cars coming and going make the night more lively.

For normal people, night is a time of rest and quiet, but for some people who like nightlife, this moment is the most exciting beginning in their lives.’

The car parked in the parking lot in front of the pedestrian street. The snack street needed to pass through this pedestrian street. The lights were brightly lit, turning the night into daytime, music, and the noise of the day was as short as the noise of the day.

A happy smile appeared on Zhao Ziyan's pretty face. She grabbed Lei Zhengyang's hand and rushed over, saying, "Brother Lei, I didn't expect there was such a lively place in the capital. I have been in the capital for more than two years and have never come out at night. This place is really good."

There are more than just a bustling place in the capital. As long as it is a gathering place for nightlife, it is very lively. Lei Zhengyang nodded gently and said, "It's really lively here. We are going to pass through this street and go for a walk before eating."

Lei Zhengyang did not break away from her little hand, and a kind of warmth merged into each other's hearts. Looking at Lei Zhengyang's gentle eyes, Zhao Ziyan felt that her heart was stirring like a deer. She had never shaken hands with a man intimately, and it felt very novel. In an instant, many pictures of this man appeared in her mind.

Along the way, Zhao Ziyan smiled happily. Although she was a little arrogant before, she was not rebellious and was still more orderly. In addition, her family was busy with their own affairs, so she didn't have many friends to come to Beijing, so it was rare to come out, let alone midnight.

Lei Zhengyang took care of her carefully and stood in front of her. As long as she wanted to see, she would squeeze out a small path for her. This rare considerate made Zhao Ziyan happier.

At the end of the pedestrian street is a food street, which is full of small door stalls and large food stalls. The tables are basically placed at the door. From a distance, it seems to form a long queue of food streets at night. There are many people eating here, usually with friends or couples to consume. Not only is it cheap, but more importantly, the taste is very authentic, with the taste that people in the capital miss, and cannot be eaten elsewhere.

Lei Zhengyang chose a relatively secluded food stall because he had something to tell Zhao Ziyan that his condolence to her just now was to give her a kind of comfort. Lei Zhengyang was not good at dealing with feelings, but he still had to make some things clear. If it were another woman, Lei Zhengyang would never do this, but unfortunately, the woman in front of him was the eldest brother's sister-in-law, and he needed to be careful.

There are also various spicy soups for barbecue, and of course you can also order some small stir-fry. The menu is in Zhao Ziyan's hands. I ordered a large skewer in a row. There are barbecue and spicy soup, and I ordered a few side dishes. Then I smiled playfully and said to Lei Zhengyang, "Brother Lei, I know you like to eat pork ribs, so I ordered a large portion of crispy pork ribs. You will have a great time later."

The food came up in a few minutes, and the fragrance was so strong that it was indeed full of color, fragrance and taste. Lei Zhengyang ate the pork ribs and had a special taste.

After taking a bite of barbecue, Zhao Ziyan would pick up a piece of ribs for Lei Zhengyang, and then the two of them clinked glasses. It was rare to come out once. Zhao Ziyan also ordered a bottle of stele wine and was very happy to see it.

Looking at her smiling face like this, Lei Zhengyang did not immediately say those unhappy things. He thought about it and would rather wait until he finished eating. Maybe after he finished speaking, there would be no chance to play with her like this in the future.

The two of them had a great time eating and were very happy to speak. They were all talking about ordinary things, mostly Zhao Ziyan was talking about her work and family affairs.

After drinking three bottles of stele wine in a row, the atmosphere gradually changed a little, and the happy smiling face slowly returned to calm, just like the silence that was about to disperse after the song.

Although Zhao Ziyan's face was filled with a unique rosy look, Lei Zhengyang could see that she no longer had the happiness she had just now.

Lei Zhengyang didn't speak, she had already spoken.

"Brother Lei, you must have something to tell me. I know that you are here today, and my brother-in-law and sister asked you to persuade me. I know what you want to say. Actually, you don't have to speak anymore. I'm very happy now. Tonight is the happiest day in the past year."

Lei Zhengyang was a little depressed. This woman was not stupid at all. She seemed to have known everything.

Zhao Ziyan raised her head and showed a smile on her face, but this smile was a bit reluctant, and said, "My sister is right. Brother Lei, I like you, the kind I like very much. If you are an ordinary person, I might pursue you and do whatever it takes, but unfortunately, you are not an ordinary person, so I will only keep this love in my heart."

"Really, don't feel embarrassed. Just like a beautiful woman like a fairy, there will always be many admirers. You can't marry a man just because he admires her. It's my own business that I love you. I don't want to cause any trouble to you. I just hope that I can see you at close range from time to time, which is enough."

"Brother Lei, I think there are many people who like you like me in the capital. If you treat me like me, wouldn't you be exhausted? So today, thank you for taking time with me. Compared with those women, I have already gotten a lot. I am not greedy, that's enough."

Zhao Ziyan was very calm. If she had come to Beijing, she would definitely not be able to understand the true meaning of love. But now, she understood that love is not possession, but giving. As long as she sees this man happy, she will feel very happy. If his woman doesn't want him anymore, she will immediately steal him back and treat him as her favorite person in her life, take care of him and give him everything.
