taste of honey

The dishes are pre-booked, and they will be served one by one within two or three minutes, and a large table is piled up. This Hunan restaurant is a time-honored restaurant here. Zheng Yun used to treat guests here when he had important matters. Jiang Yi Followed me twice.

Most of the dishes she ordered were her favorites.

Her palms were dripping with sweat, and she held onto Duan Qingxu tightly.Duan Qingxu patted the back of her hand reassuringly, then pulled away without a trace, led the girl to stand up, and opened the stool for Zheng Yun.

"Auntie." Duan Qingxu shouted.

Only then did Jiang Yi come back to her senses, and then called out: "Mom."

Zheng Yun nodded indifferently, and sat across from the two carrying his bag.The table was a square table, Jiang Yi and Duan Qingxu sat on one side, facing each other now.

Jiang Yi didn't even dare to look Zheng Yun in the eyes. The scene was really embarrassing. She had thought about how to meet each other one day, but the reality was often more difficult than imagined.

Instead, Duan Qingxu was very calm, got up to pour water for her and Zheng Yun, and asked, "Auntie just got off work?"

The stuffy gourd who can't pry his mouth open at ordinary times, but now he greets him familiarly, and he can't find any faults in a graceful manner.

Zheng Yun didn't come here specifically to make things difficult for others. Since she asked first, her expression softened, but her tone was still calm, and she said, "After work at seven o'clock, there is a traffic jam on the road."

So come at this time, otherwise you will arrive earlier than Jiang Yi.

She deliberately called Jiang Yi half an hour ago, because she didn't want them to know that she had asked out everyone at the same time. She had a lot to say and didn't give them time to prepare.

Now that the food is ready, it is natural to start, otherwise the three of them gathered around the table to see what it looked like, Zheng Yun picked up the chopsticks first, Jiang Yi also picked up the chopsticks, and Duan Qingxu served soup for the two.

Zheng Yun glanced at Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi squeezed the chopsticks tightly, then took the soup bowl from Duan Qingxu's hand, handed it to Zheng Yun, and said obediently: "Mom, your soup, be careful of being hot."

Zheng Yun ignored her. She was the same age, but his own family was not as clever as others'. He couldn't distinguish the occasion by his face, so he really thought she was out for dinner.

Duan Qingxu served Jiang Yi another bowl, perhaps in front of her parents, this girl was embarrassed, her ears couldn't help but turn red.

The three of them picked up their chopsticks and ate in silence. Zheng Yun didn't speak, and it was hard for the two juniors to say anything directly.Duan Qingxu has been observing Zheng Yun's reaction, thinking about how to speak.

Jiang Yi was caught in the middle, eating and eating, serving food for Zheng Yun, but not for Duan Qingxu, she had turned her head around.It's not done yet, you can't make an intimate move in front of Zheng Yun, even a little bit, the parents' mentality is different from theirs.

When the meal was almost finished, Duan Qingxu wanted to serve Zheng Yun soup again, Zheng Yun put down the bowl and chopsticks, and wiped his mouth with paper.

The two also put down their bowls and chopsticks.

"Okay, don't make these useless things." Zheng Yun said dissatisfiedly, "You all know what to do here today."

Jiang Yi pursed her lips. For the first time, she felt that her mother was so serious. Zheng Yun was usually very approachable, gentle and gentle, and even lowered her tone when she said a word, but now she was a bit domineering, and her words were harsh. the taste of.

This is to show the attitude to the two of them.

Duan Qingxu gently stroked the back of Jiang Yi's hand on the table, and then patted it again, indicating that it's okay and don't worry.

"Yeah." She nodded neither humble nor overbearing, "I know."

Zheng Yun was quite satisfied with this sentence, glanced at someone who was turning his elbow outward, and said bluntly: "I won't beat around the bush, just say it directly."

Duan Qingxu replied: "Tell me."

Zheng Yun paused for a long while, concentrating on his words, and said: "I don't agree with you, no matter what Mr. Duan thinks, or what other plans you have, in short, I don't agree. You two are still young. I am 20 years old, I have never seen society and have no experience. I have lived comfortably for a long time and I don’t know the sufferings of the world. There is still a long way to go in the future, and there will be many things to encounter. No one can tell the variables in the future. What will happen to the two of you is not guaranteed .”

These words are reasonable and unreasonable. From the perspective of parents, the relationship between the two of them is really not worth mentioning. The young love and love are like the sky in June and July, which is unpredictable. The previous moment was clear and cloudless. The next moment, it was raining heavily, and from intimacy to estrangement, it was just a word of breaking up.

Zheng Yun has lived for more than forty years, and has never seen any kind of separation and reunion, so he thinks more thoroughly and far-reachingly than the two of them.

Duan Qingxu knew these truths, and instead of arguing with her, he just said: "Auntie has her own considerations."

Zheng Yun looked at her.

Jiang Yi stiffened her back in disbelief, as if she was afraid that her mother would do something like beat a mandarin duck, she was not calm at all.

The two young ones sat together, their performances were in contrast, Zheng Yun frowned, but finally held back his desire to reprimand Jiang Yi, and said: "But if you insist, it's useless if I don't agree, it really broke you apart." , I may not know how to complain in the future. Your family and mine are both in city a, and their property is also in city a. Sending Jiang Yi abroad and separating you is something that she doesn't want and I can't do it. Today I will Ask, do you really want to be together? Even if we don't agree, you still insist on being together, right?"

The tone of this passage is very heavy, with the meaning of persecution and oppression.

Jiang Yi felt a little uncomfortable, always feeling a little too harsh, and subconsciously looked at the people around her.

However, Duan Qingxu held her hand tightly, and slowly replied with affirmation: "Yes, even if you disagree, I will still choose Jiang Yi. If you send her abroad, I will also go abroad. If you want to move out of City A, I will follow. If she wants to, I will."

"She doesn't want to?"

Duan Qingxu didn't say anything, and he didn't say anything about Jiang Yi's unwillingness, which would only irritate Zheng Yun.

Jiang Yi is a smart girl, she just listens and doesn't make a sound.

Zheng Yun's aggressive arrogance has become much less aggressive, probably a little helpless. In fact, he has accepted his fate in his heart, knowing that nothing can be changed, but he still asks: "Have you thought about it in the future? How will others see it in the future? How will the society see it? I know what you are doing now. The thinking of these young people is that life is their own, no matter what others think, but in the society, it is impossible to completely escape. If you face greater pressure in the future, or gossip and public opinion, behind you is the Duan family, The second is Jiang Yi, what should I do then? Have you thought about it."

It's not like living in seclusion in the deep mountains and old forests, and they will inevitably encounter these unsolvable problems. They can change the minds of the parents of both parties, but they cannot change the views of everyone in the society.

Duan Qingxu is the heir of the Duan family, and he has to consider much more than Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi can be an ordinary person, but she cannot.

With a lot of wealth, there must be heavy burdens, one wrong step, one wrong step, if she is caught in the public opinion, if she is misguided by her opponents in the future, then the Duan family behind her will also be affected.

Zheng Yun sees things more comprehensively. She understands better than the two juniors. Only a few people in this society can accept homosexuality. No big deal.

Duan Qing was speechless for a long time, half of Zheng Yun's words were correct, she really didn't care what others thought or saw.

After a while, she looked at Zheng Yun seriously, and replied: "Jiang Yi is behind me, followed by you, and finally the Duan family."

The Duan family refers to the family property of the Duan family.

Zheng Yun was stunned by this answer.

Duan Qingxu continued: "Other people's views cannot be changed, but public opinion is only temporary. People cannot be divorced from society, but others' ideas are irrelevant. We don't live by them. Business depends on means and funds, and they are not important. "

The normal functioning of society has never depended on public opinion. Cook came out to the world, and Apple is still standing.

The only thing that can be controlled by public opinion is an unsteady heart.

It was the same for them, and it was also true for Zheng Yun. If it was true what she said, then she should have been defeated when they got divorced.

"I can't control other people, but I can guarantee that I will be good to Jiang Yi and you. When everyone is on the opposite side, I will stand by her side." Duan Qingxu said.

She never made any promises easily, even when she was alone, she said very few love words, her actions were more important than words, as long as she said it, she would definitely do it.

These words were not meant to deal with Zheng Yun, but a sincere promise.

Jiang Yi couldn't control her emotions, the corners of her mouth curled up, inevitably a little excited.

Zheng Yun was much calmer.

"I can't stop you," she said.

Duan Qingxu replied: "No matter what you do, you are doing it for our own good."

Compliments come naturally.But Zheng Yun didn't believe this, he just said: "Anyone can say it verbally, you are still so young, who can say what will happen in the future."

His tone was much tougher and softer, and he seemed willing to communicate.In fact, Zheng Yun also understood that no matter what she did, nothing could be changed, but she was just worried about handing over Jiang Yi.

As a mother, you always think more, which is normal.

After chatting with each other for a while, she had something to say to Duan Qingxu alone, and asked Jiang Yi to go out first.

"Mom..." Jiang Yi struggled, unwilling to leave.

But Zheng Yun was very determined, and Duan Qingxu asked her to go out and wait.

During this conversation, Jiang Yi took a stand. She was reluctant, but there was nothing she could do, so she went out and waited at the door.

The two in the private room talked for more than ten minutes. When they came out, the corners of Zheng Yun's eyes were moist.She wanted to go over to comfort her, but Zheng Yun wiped away her tears and left alone.

Duan Qingxu came out later, held her hand, and said softly: "It's all right."
