Chapter 179 Secretly(1/2)
For Xu Duanran, this happened just a few years ago.
But in Zhang Mingyang's view, this is the impulse of youth and the regretless love of youth.
Just love, no regrets.
Later, when we talked about it at the wine table, I would also tell others with a smile that when I was young, I once chased a girl desperately.
This was all he could remember, and the rest of the details had long been forgotten.
A bitter smile appeared on Zhang Mingyang's face. He never thought that one day he would hear the words "I really like you" from Xu Duanran's mouth.
If these words could have been spoken earlier, maybe the two of them would have been together long ago.
When he was still a simple boy and there was only Xu Duanran in his heart.
Zhang Mingyang drove silently and didn't speak. Xu Duanran's voice became quieter and quieter.
Alcohol gradually paralyzed the brain, causing her consciousness to gradually leave the body.
In the end, she just kept mumbling the name Zhang Mingyang, leaned against the passenger seat and fell asleep without saying anything else.
When the car drove near the community, Zhang Mingyang parked the car at the door, and there happened to be a cart selling snacks next to it.
"I'm going to buy some vermicelli, do you want to eat it?"
Zhang Mingyang's response was a burst of silence.
He turned his head and glanced to the side. Xu Duanran had fallen into a deep sleep. Before he fell asleep, a teardrop was still hanging in the corner of his eye and sliding down his cheek.
He originally planned to get out of the car directly, but after thinking about it, he returned to the car. He took out a tissue from the paper drawer and gently wiped the eldest lady's tears.
"It makes it seem like I bullied you, even though it's obviously you who bullied me."
After finishing everything, Zhang Mingyang got out of the car, closed the door, and walked towards the food stall.
He didn't eat anything serious except breakfast all day today. He only had some snacks in the Internet cafe and some fruit plate in the karaoke bar.
Now he is so hungry that his stomach hurts.
"Boss, give me some vermicelli, make it more spicy."
The boss who had been sitting on the stool listening to a book quickly stood up. When he saw Zhang Mingyang's face, he sighed: "I'm back. It's been a long time since I saw you and that little girl coming to buy food."
"Well, I just came back today. We are now going to school in Linjiang."
Zhang Mingyang is a regular customer here. He used to come here often to buy food. On the most frequent occasions, he didn't even need to say anything. He only needed to say "same old" to the boss and he would know what to do.
"It's good to go to school. Don't be as hopeless as me and just set up a stall outside."
"Everyone has his own way out. You are also very good. The noodles you make are definitely the best in Steel City."
"Exalted."
While the two were chatting and laughing, the boss seemed to suddenly remember something and asked: "Why did you only order one dish today? Where is the little girl? She didn't come with you."
Zhang Mingyang pointed to the car behind him and said, "I drank too much and was sleeping in the car."
The boss showed a surprised expression: "It's amazing, I've already driven it in the car."
He looked towards the direction of the car, and sure enough he saw a sleeping girl in the passenger seat.
"I told you before that you could do it, but the little girl still doesn't admit it."
Zhang Mingyang smiled and said nothing. He had been misunderstood for a whole day, and he was too lazy to explain anymore.
"My wife and I met when we were in elementary school. Later we stopped studying and started working together..." The boss kept sharing his love story. When handing the pink cake to Zhang Mingyang,
He said sincerely: "This kind of love must be cherished."
When she returned to the car after paying the money, Xu Duanran had already woken up. She stared blankly at the pink leather in Zhang Mingyang's hand and stretched out her hand directly to him.
Not only him, the eldest lady didn't eat anything all day today.
"I just asked you if you want to eat, but you didn't say anything." He complained: "If you want to eat, you can get out of the car and buy it yourself."
"No, I'm going to take your share." Xu Duanran grabbed Zhang Mingyang's arm and acted coquettishly. Her eyelashes were still stained with water drops, and the corners of her eyes were red, looking pitiful.
The more pitiful the expression, the more people want to bully him.
"Then you eat it." Zhang Mingyang generously handed over the noodles.
Xu Duanran took the kuaizi without thinking, picked up a piece of pink skin and put it into her mouth. Soon, her eyes turned redder and she became more energetic.
The eldest lady has typical Linjiang people's tastes. She usually eats a bland diet and can't eat any spicy food, let alone his spicy food.
Zhang Mingyang often wanted Xu Duanran to taste his food before, but he failed every time. Unexpectedly, he succeeded so easily this time.
He was laughing so hard.
"You wait in the car, and I'll go out and buy one for you."
Xu Duanran's eyes filled with tears, and she finally swallowed the powder in her mouth.
She bit her lower lip lightly, with an unconvinced look on her face: "No, I can't finish one portion by myself, just eat this. Open your mouth and I'll feed you."
"I despise you!"
Zhang Mingyang got out of the car again and asked the boss to buy a flavor that Xu Duanran liked.
When he was waiting to get in the car, he found that the eldest lady put another piece into her mouth bravely.
"Go, go, eat your share."
On a slightly cool winter night, the two of them sat in the car eating noodles together.
After filling his stomach, Xu Duanran gradually sobered up and his eyes became clearer, but his head still hurt a little.
"Zhang Mingyang, do you remember that when we were young, Aunt Yan and grandma wouldn't let us buy snacks outside, and they didn't give us much pocket money, so we just bought a piece of vermicelli and squatted downstairs to eat before going up." Xu Duanran said.
.
Zhang Mingyang picked up a few from the eldest lady's bowl and mixed them in his own bowl to make it taste the way he liked.
"Of course I remember, because you didn't wipe your mouth clean, you were found when you went back, and you confessed me, saying that I took you to eat, but in the end I was beaten up. Don't worry, every time I get beaten up because of you
I remember everything." Zhang Mingyang complained to Xu Duanran.
I don't know what made Xu Duanran funny about what he said. She covered her stomach with one hand and giggled non-stop.
Seeing that the pink skin was shaking a little, Zhang Mingyang said viciously: "If it's in the car, you can clean the car for me tomorrow!"
Xu Duanran was not afraid at all and continued to eat the noodles.
"It's still interesting to be young. It would be great if we could never grow up."
"As a child, I still think it's more interesting to be an adult. When I was a child, I always thought that adults were not picky eaters, but later I found out that they didn't buy vegetables they didn't like at all."
After Zhang Mingyang finished eating, he fastened the box and started the car again.
Xu Duanran didn't reply, but silently ate the noodles in his hand.
Some people want to move forward, and some people want to stay.
She was the one who wanted to stay, but in order to catch up with the one she loved, she had to force herself to move forward.
Zhang Mingyang parked the car in the community, and when he got out of the car, he joked: "Remember to wipe your mouth before getting in, otherwise I will be beaten again when I go upstairs."
The two took the elevator upstairs together. When they waited at the door, the eldest lady did not go back to her home. Instead, she stood at the door of Zhang Mingyang's house, waiting for him to open the door.
"Why are you following me if you don't go home quickly? You really want to see me get beaten. You are so cruel." He found the key from his pocket and opened the door.
"I left Youyou with Aunt Yan before I left. Come and pick her up." Xu Duanran looked down at her toes and made up a random reason. She just wanted to stay with the bad guy for a while longer.
Skillfully turning the door lock and opening the door, Zhang Mingyang finally returned to his home after being away for half a year.
Everything at home is as familiar as usual.
"Youyou!" Zhang Mingyang shouted, but did not receive any response.
Normally, there would be no need for him to shout. When you hear the sound of him opening the door, Youyou must have been waiting at the door.
He looked around and found that only his father was sitting in the living room watching TV, not even his mother was there.
Then, he asked the most classic question: "Dad, where is my mother?"
"How long has it been since you last seen your father? The first time you saw me, you asked where your mother was? Do you have a son like you?" Zhang Guowei scolded with a smile.

"That's different. Usually you only go to your dad when something big happens. The fact that I went to my mom proves that nothing big happened recently. You should be happy for me, right?" Zhang Mingyang said sarcastically.
"Okay, okay, your mother is opposite, Youyou is with her."
After learning the news, Zhang Mingyang turned around and said: "Youyou has gone home. You should go back too. Get some rest early. The distance is not far, so I won't see you off."
The distance is indeed not far, it is the distance between the opposite door and the opposite door.
Faced with the eviction order from the bad guys, when Xu Duanran was still hesitating whether to leave, Zhang Guowei finally found her standing outside the door.
"Ranran is here too, come in and sit down!" Zhang Guowei stood up and greeted.
Xu Duanran blinked at him in dismay, as if his evil plot had succeeded.
When Zhang Mingyang wanted to say something else, his father had already arranged slippers for the two of them.
