Chapter 131: Banquet for Smith, Interview
Chapter 131: Banquet for Smith, Interview
When Smith arrived at the restaurant, Mo Rufeng was with him.
Father and mother hurriedly stood up and left their seats, and Zhai Kexin had to stand up as well, including Shen Jizhong.
Mo Rufeng spoke calmly, looking at the things on the table, and said, "Sorry, I'm late, uncle, aunt..."
It’s not too late, Zhao Mandao, come and sit down!
Thank you, Mr. Zhai, for your invitation, Smith said very politely, and shook hands with Zhai Xiaoyi's outstretched hand.
All the roots come from Coco. Rufeng, thank you very much for traveling thousands of miles with Dr. Shen to cure Coco. I should have visited you in person, but there are many inconveniences. Please forgive me.
You are too polite, sir. It is a doctor's duty to treat the sick. Miss Coco's recovery is half her own. You have a special status, and Mr. Mo has explained it to us. Shen Jizhong said sincerely, he is not good at speaking. It is not easy to say so much.
After everyone was seated, Zhai Kexin stood up and filled the glasses of several men with wine, except for Mo Rufeng, who had a glass of freshly squeezed juice in his glass.
Mo Rufeng looked at the juice in the cup, obviously feeling unhappy and frowning. He wanted to say something, but was blocked by Zhai Keyin's words; your body has not fully recovered yet, and if I'm not mistaken, the scar on your body has not healed yet, so drink a glass of juice first. Alcohol will irritate the wound and is not good for your body's recovery.
Mo Rufeng wanted to say something, but he heard Zhao Man's concerned voice asking how his recovery was going, and he still looked very bad.
I'm much better now. Don't worry, auntie.
I didn't want you to come today. Your uncle said it was okay. Zhao Man's eyes were tender and his face was full of worry as if he was looking at his son.
Mr. Mo has already left the healing room. Walking around properly is good for the body, Shen Jizhong said.
Okay, let’s toast to fate. Zhai Xiaoyi stood up with a smile and wished Rufeng a speedy recovery!
Mo Rufeng just held the juice and clinked it with everyone's glasses, and said, "Thank you!"
Mo Rufeng had brought Zhai Kexin to Deyue Tower's cuisine many times before, so before coming, Zhai Kexin ordered Deyue Tower's specialty dishes online and customized a set meal especially for Mo Rufeng.
Mo Rufeng looked at the plate in front of him and knew that it was customized by Zhai Kexin for him. He did not eat the food on the plate according to Zhai Kexin's arrangement, but occasionally ate some food on the table.
Zhai Kexin did not stop him. After all, he didn't have such a big meal every day, so it was okay to have it occasionally.
Everyone had a pleasant lunch because, except for Smith and Zhai Kexin, most of them were not good at speaking. Fortunately, Zhai Xiaoyi was experienced and knew how to ease the atmosphere at the table. Even Mo Rufeng said a few words under Zhai Xiaoyi's lead.
During the whole meal, Mo Rufeng did not even glance at Zhai Kexin, but Zhai Xiaoyi and Zhao Man saw Zhai Kexin's eager look. In Zhao Man's eyes, although Mo Rufeng was not good at speaking, he was very happy and talkative when he had dinner with Zhai Kexin at home five years ago. He was quick and diligent, but she never knew that Mo Rufeng was only like that with Zhai Kexin. He was a person who kept people at a distance. But Zhai Kexin knew that she understood that Mo Rufeng had given all his tenderness to her, and that the situation today was all her own fault, and she could not blame anyone else.
But Zhao Man, who was unaware of the situation, saw Mo Rufeng's expressionless face and thought that Mo Rufeng was putting on such a bad face for Zhai Kexin. No matter what Zhai Kexin did, she was still the child in her mouth, and Mo Rufeng's behavior made her very unhappy.
Zhai Kexin saw her mother's dissatisfaction, she hugged her mother's arms and whispered, "Auntie doesn't hate me."
Zhao Man looked at her daughter and knew that her love life was complicated. Although she felt sorry for her daughter, she could also understand how Mo Rufeng treated her daughter. She patted her daughter's hand and said, "No matter what happened between you and Rufeng, you should ask for forgiveness from Aunt Li. You have an unshirkable responsibility for Zifeng's problem."
Zhai Kexin nodded, and only let go of her mother when she saw that her mother's unhappiness had been relieved. She stood up and filled two glasses of wine for Smith and Shen Jizhong respectively, and also poured herself a glass. She stood with a straight back and a hint of tenderness on her pretty face. She picked up the wine glass with her slender, fair hands, and said, "Come, I'll toast you two a glass. Thank you for your help, which allowed me to get rid of the disease and gain a new life."
You are a strong and unyielding girl, Smith gently bumped his cup with hers. You recovered so quickly because you overcame your psychological barriers and worked hard to cooperate with us to return to normal. I am very happy to see you now.
Please continue to be in a good mood. You know that your condition has not fully recovered. I looked at Zhai Kexin during the audit. If you didn't insist and Mrs. Mo needed me to come here, I would not let you come back. Remember, you have to continue taking the medicine I gave you.
Mo Rufeng raised his eyes to look at Su Zhong. Hasn't he recovered? Then why did he come back? He looked at Zhai Kexin again. This person who ran to his house to cook in the early morning, couldn't she really not have recovered?
I have already figured it out. Since I accepted the review last year, under your advice, I have also collected a lot of things on psychology, and I have also seen many cases similar to mine. Many things made me understand that I was too weak before and could not bear the slightest harm. I would avoid problems blindly. But now I know that there are many things in society that need to be accepted and faced. I must adapt to society and the life around me. Avoidance cannot solve any problems. I was really too cowardly before.
Very good, Smith said, I believe you are not a fish in the pond.
Thank you, Zhai Kexin drank the wine in the glass. This was the first time she drank like this. This glass of wine carried so much for her, including touching moments and many other things that were unspoken.
After drinking a glass of wine, Zhai Kexin suddenly felt hot all over and her face quickly turned red. Mo Rufeng looked at Zhai Kexin. He understood what Zhai Kexin wanted to say, but he just glanced at her and said casually, "You can't drink. Don't be stubborn."
Zhai Xiaoyi glanced at Mo Rufeng's expressionless face and said with an ambiguous look, "She's happy to let her have a drink." This glass of wine should be toasted to Smith and Mr. Shen Jizhong.
Mo Rufeng said nothing, lowered his head and took out the mobile phone that was slightly moving in his pocket.
If you have something to do, just leave first, Zhai Xiaoyi said as he saw Mo Rufeng’s brows twitch slightly.
It's okay. Mo Rufeng put his hands in his pockets, drank the juice in the cup, turned the white wine in front of himself, picked up the bottle and poured himself a glass, then filled up the glasses for the other people, stood up and said, "Thank you auntie and uncle for the invitation. Thank you also to Smith and Mr. Shen for their help. If you encounter any problems, don't forget to let me know. Mo Rufeng will do his best to help you."
The words of Mo Rufeng touched everyone at the table. They all knew how Mo Rufeng had gotten through this winter and how much he had paid.
At this moment, Zhai Kexin's eyes surged with heat, and her heart felt like a thousand knives piercing her heart. She stood up, pulled away her seat and walked out of the room, staggering to the bathroom, tears pouring out uncontrollably. She squatted down and buried her head deeply in her knees, the pain surged like a tide, making her feel so miserable that she wanted to die. Yes, what Mo Rufeng had endured in the past few years was also caused by her...
Zhao Man wanted to chase after him, but Zhai Xiaoyi grabbed her hand and stopped her with a look.
Let her vent, Zhai Xiaoyi told his wife with his eyes.
Zhai Kexin just squatted for a while, then controlled her emotions. She would not forget that she had invited Smith and Shen Jizhong today. She walked to the sink and looked at her red face. Her red eyes should not be noticed by others. She washed her face and returned to the private room. Everyone had changed the topic. She pulled out a seat and sat down. Her mother soon gave her an uneasy look. She gently patted her mother's hand and said, "I'm a little drunk."
I ordered some hangover tea and I'll have a cup later.
Okay, Zhai Kexin is feeling better.
I really can't handle the alcohol, sorry to embarrass you all, Zhai Kexin said unhappily.
Please feel free to do as you like, Shen Ji Zhongdao, you’re welcome, we are not only doctors and patients, but also friends.
Zhai Kexin nodded and asked, "Is Yao Na still going to Shenzhen?"
We are going there next year, and there are some things she hasn't perfected yet, and I don't want her to give up halfway.
Yao Na is still going to Shencheng. Mo Rufeng raised his eyes and looked at Shen Jizhong and asked.
If she wants to learn my essence, you wouldn't have to go to so much trouble to get me here.
She never said that, said Zhai Keyin.
She is still treating you, you just didn't notice, Shen Ji Zhong said.
She didn’t tell me, Zhai Kexin said in confusion.
Shen Jizhong looked at Zhai Kexin; she didn’t let me tell you that she has always been in charge of psychological construction.
Zhai Kexin understood. No wonder Yao Na took her to the bar to dance and helped her overcome difficulties in different occasions...
"Go back and invite Yao Na," Smith said to Mo Rufeng.
Okay, Mo Rufeng nodded, that girl is a hidden talent.
She will go without an invitation, said Zhai Keyin. She mentioned it before, but I didn’t take it seriously and thought she was joking.
