Insincere
Chapter 027
This is not good news for Liang Rui at all.
He didn't know what Zhou Zecheng said to Jiang Ming that day, which made Jiang Ming's behavior change suddenly, but he didn't dare to do everything possible to gamble on a possibility, let alone pin his life on an unlucky one. People who trust themselves wait for alms from the other party like a wretch.
The next day, Jiang Ming really came back.
As soon as he appeared, Chen Shan avoided him immediately.
Jiang Ming looked a little tired, but when he saw Liang Rui, his eyes seemed to rekindle some light, and he said with a smile, "I remember you always liked sweet and sour fish, and you always cooked it for me before, but later... I The taste of eating in other places is not right, so I just learned how to make it myself, and I will try it for you today, okay? See if I have improved." After finishing speaking, he didn't even change his clothes, so he swung his sleeves Into the kitchen.
Liang Rui didn't say anything, but just sat outside in silence. No one could stop what Jiang Ming was going to do, and he had no intention of spoiling the fun.
Jiang Ming worked in the kitchen for a long time before he prepared a table full of sumptuous meals. It can be seen that his craftsmanship has indeed improved a lot over the years.
Liang Rui met Jiang Ming's expectant eyes, stretched out his chopsticks and tried it, nodded and said, "Not bad."
"Do you like it?" Jiang Ming asked expectantly with a light in his eyes.
Liang Rui looked at him and was silent for a moment, he suddenly didn't want to lie: "Actually, I don't really like it, I did it because you like it." He paused, and then explained: "I didn't mean to lie to you, Because you never asked before."
This sentence was like cold water pouring down, instantly extinguishing the hope in Jiang Ming's eyes, his eyes became dark and gloomy, he barely opened the corners of his mouth, and said in a low voice, "I'm too stupid. After so many years, even what do you like to eat?" I don’t even know, what else can I know?”
Liang Rui always felt that his words seemed to mean something else, but he didn't quite understand, he just said habitually: "It's none of your business, I never told you that I don't like it."
"So it's not my fault, it's your fault, isn't it?" Jiang Ming smiled at himself with a self-deprecating arc.
Liang Rui hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
Jiang Ming clenched his hands tightly, and the unspeakable sadness almost overwhelmed him. He blinked his eyes before trying to suppress the soreness.
"Brother, you spoiled me." He looked at Liang Rui and said.
Liang Rui looked up at him suddenly, with an expression of disbelief in his eyes, his lips trembled slightly, "You, what are you talking about..."
Jiang Ming stared at Liang Rui calmly, "I said you spoiled me, you are too accommodating to me, and no matter what you did for me, you never said anything, no matter how others slandered you, you never refuted, you never Change to do what you think you should do.”
"I have gradually become dissatisfied, arrogant and ignorant, and I am used to enjoying your care and care. If something goes wrong, I feel that it is your fault. I never know how to think about you. And you always put all your mistakes Take it to yourself, and slowly, all of this becomes a matter of course, but it shouldn't be like this..."
"You shouldn't be so nice to me. This...is your fault." Jiang Ming said literally.
Rao Liang Rui had already thought about many possibilities, but he didn't expect Jiang Ming to say such a thing, and he was almost in a state of confusion for a moment.
What did Jiang Ming mean? Did he really think so?Or another way to play him?No...why was it so easy for him to be pried off by Jiang Ming, and why he was still entangled in Jiang Ming's occasional bit of kindness.Hasn't he learned his lesson yet?
Liang Rui looked at him fixedly, pursed his lips and said, "I should be nice to you, you don't have to think that way."
"What should be?" Jiang Ming's dark eyes seemed to be suppressing countless deep pain, he opened his mouth, "Just because of my dad? Just because he took you back from the orphanage back then. So you should be doing the Jiang family a disservice, should you treat me unconditionally? Should you also pay for your own life?"
"You're right." Liang Rui looked at him calmly: "These are all as they should be...Although I have many bad things and I'm not open and aboveboard, the basic principle of being a man who knows how to repay kindness is still there. Yes, you needn't doubt that."
Jiang Ming gritted his teeth, looked at Liang Rui with red eyes, and said sharply, "Who wants you to do this!"
Liang Rui's face turned pale when he was yelled at. He looked at Jiang Ming who seemed to be out of control at any moment, those terrible memories emerged, and instinctively turned his head to avoid Jiang Ming's sight, "Sorry." He always understood Knowing current affairs, he would never fight fiercely with Jiang Ming.
"Why are you apologizing to me?" Jiang Ming said hoarsely. Liang Rui's evasive performance made him want to kill himself. He was very angry and sad, but he didn't dare to show it. He was afraid that his violent side would push Liang Rui away. Farther away, so I tried my best to calm my voice, "You are right, why do you have to apologize."
Because I made you angry - but Liang Rui just felt that saying this sentence might make Jiang Ming even more angry, so he pursed his lips and didn't speak.
"Remember, never apologize to me for the mistakes you didn't make." Jiang Ming said word by word.
Liang Rui nodded without thinking, but didn't take it to heart.
Jiang Ming closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Do you still remember ten years ago? At that time, I just turned [-], and you refused to see me during that time. I have no choice. I secretly followed after knowing your news...then I saw you and Zhou Zecheng together."
Liang Rui immediately became nervous. This was probably what Jiang Ming really wanted to say to him today. He kept thinking about what to say to alleviate Jiang Ming's anger and not bring more trouble to himself and Zhou Zecheng.
"Zhou Zecheng was right with our Jiang family everywhere, but he still pursued you with great fanfare. At that time, many people said bad things about you...I didn't believe it, so I wanted to ask you what was going on." Jiang Ming looked at Liang Rui.
Liang Rui immediately explained: "I really have nothing to do with him, and he didn't really want to chase me back then."
"But I saw you kissing and hugging..." Jiang Ming said slowly.
Before he finished speaking, Liang Rui stood up excitedly, and the chair was brought back and fell back, making a 'bang' sound!A look of fear suddenly appeared in Liang Rui's eyes. He propped his hands on the table, and his voice was hurried, with an almost imperceptible tremor: "That... that's not... no, that was already ten years ago! At that time I'm not with you either! You can't-"
"What can't I do?" Jiang Ming asked.
Liang Rui stared at him, gritted his teeth and said, "You want to deal with me, why bother to find such an excuse."
It was only at this time that he suddenly realized that if Jiang Ming had held grudges against them ten years ago, those behaviors could also be explained.And now seeing them together again, how would they deal with Zhou Zecheng?He used Zhou Zecheng back then, so would he still be implicated by him ten years later?Liang Rui took a deep breath: "After so many years, I have no contact with him. It's only me that you can't understand, and it has nothing to do with him."
"So what you want to say is—" Jiang Ming looked at him.
"What did you do to him?" Liang Rui asked nervously.
Looking at Liang Rui's worried eyes, Jiang Ming felt a sharp pain in his heart, but he had nowhere to vent it. He was the one who lost Liang Rui. Could it be that ten years later, he still wants to use his own mistakes to punish Liang Rui? ?he can not.
Jiang Ming reluctantly opened the corner of his mouth, and smiled: "What can I do to him, Zhou Zecheng is not easy, I just keep him busy recently, and he has no time to intervene in our affairs."
Liang Rui just breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately remembered his dire situation, which really made things worse.Unexpectedly, Jiang Ming saw that scene, that's why he thought he liked Zhou Zecheng...
Jiang Ming's hands under the table clenched into fists, released them, and clenched into fists again. After repeated several times, he finally calmed down.He stood up silently, walked around the table towards Liang Rui.
Liang Rui wanted to run instinctively. He watched Jiang Ming walk over step by step, but his scalp felt numb, but his feet seemed to be stuck to the floor, and he didn't even have the strength to move.He stood there straight, closed his eyes resignedly to his fate, and waited for the pain to come... After a long while, he felt a hot hand gently pressing on his shoulder, and a gentle and light voice rang in his ears: "Your body is still there." No, don't stand and talk." After speaking, the hand lightly pressed down, and Liang Rui sat down on the raised chair again.
Liang Rui's chest heaved violently. Just a moment ago, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. When he opened his eyes again, Jiang Ming had already sat back across from him, as if he hadn't done anything just now.
"Can you listen to me now?" Jiang Ming looked at him calmly and said.
Liang Rui nodded stiffly.
"I went back to see my father a few days ago, and talked about some old things. He told me that you only made false claims with Zhou Zecheng at that time to obtain information. All of this was approved by him. Only then did I realize that I misunderstood you A lot, I shouldn't have listened to those rumors." Jiang Ming said slowly.
Actually no, after ten years, this is the answer he got from Jiang Qinghai only after deceiving and coercing him.He remembered his father talking about Liang Rui's contempt and contempt, he thought, what Zhou Zecheng said was right, even though Liang Rui had called that man's father for 20 years, in his eyes, he was nothing but a You can use it when you want it, and you can discard it at any time when you don't want it.Jiang Ming couldn't bear to tell the real answer, although maybe Liang Rui knew it well, even though he had done worse and unforgivable things... But he just didn't want to say it, and personally destroyed Liang Rui's already established Such a pitiful extravagant hope... so I told a white lie.
Liang Rui looked at him in surprise, he didn't expect Jiang Ming to go back to prove this point.He was silent for a few seconds: "It's been so long in the past, it's hard for you to remember."
"I remember everything about you." Jiang Ming said hoarsely, "It's a pity that I found out a little too late."
"It's okay, it's not your fault." Liang Rui showed a faint smile, "I didn't consider your thoughts when I did these things, so it's normal for you to misunderstand."
Jiang Ming looked at him firmly, "I've said it before, don't apologize to me for the mistakes you didn't make, and don't make excuses for my jealousy and suspicion. Don't always bear everything alone..." He looked at Liang Rui's eyes were full of indelible sadness, "Can you promise me this?"
He didn't know what Zhou Zecheng said to Jiang Ming that day, which made Jiang Ming's behavior change suddenly, but he didn't dare to do everything possible to gamble on a possibility, let alone pin his life on an unlucky one. People who trust themselves wait for alms from the other party like a wretch.
