Chapter 103

Shen Bo finally held back.

The words that came to my mouth turned into an urging: "Eat well."

Shen Jia smiled and concentrated on eating.

Before, because there were too many things to deal with at home, Shen Jia never thought about talking about relationships. He just wanted to get through the difficulties of his family, and at that time he was not in the mood to fall in love, after all, he couldn't spare time for business. Feelings, if you fall in love casually, you don't respect each other too much, and when you were reborn, you were still immersed in the previous relationship, and you haven't recovered emotionally, and you haven't thought about this.

Now he can see all the changes in his family, and he feels a lot more relaxed. The most important thing is that he has completely walked out of the shadow brought by Fu Heping, and it is time to start a new life.

Although he talked about falling in love and celebrating it, he definitely didn't intend to fall in love casually to pass the time with contempt. If he wanted to talk about it, he must take this relationship seriously, treat the other half well, and never do it. Scumbag.

If you treat another innocent person slowly because you have been hurt in a relationship, wouldn't he be assimilated by a scumbag?

That would be too pathetic, and he would never allow himself to be assimilated.

Thinking of this, Shen Jiake still remembered that his elder brother told his elder sister that he would arrange a blind date for him, and he did not leave in a hurry after the meal, and asked his elder brother with great interest: "Brother, didn't you say that you would arrange a blind date for me? Do you have a choice?"

Shen Bo asked Shen Jia with a smile, "Tell me what conditions you want and what requirements you have."

Shen Jia must have thought about it seriously, so she directly replied: "It is not required to be handsome in terms of appearance, it is enough to be clean and upright, the main thing is to have a good personality, and then have some similar interests, for example, I like playing games, reading books, I also like to travel when I’m free.”

"It's too general, let's be more specific." Shen Bo picked up the water glass on the table, and took a sip after speaking.

Shen Jia suddenly smiled embarrassedly and said, "The most important thing is that the other party has to be a 0, because I am a 1."

Shen Bo hadn't swallowed the water in his mouth, and when he heard the words, he didn't pay attention, choked on the water and coughed several times.

"What did you say? Cough—"

Shen Jia immediately stretched out her hand to pat Shen Bo on the back, and then replied: "I want 0, so you don't need to introduce 1 to me. Although I haven't said it before, you don't have to be so surprised."

"?" Shen Bo's expression at this time can be replaced by a line of lyrics.

——Children, do you have many question marks?

Seeing the incredible expression of the elder brother, Shen Jia immediately said: "Brother, are you looking down on me with this expression? I'm definitely a good number one, don't worry."

Shen Bo put down the water glass, took out a piece of paper and wiped the corners of his mouth, and said slowly, "I can arrange to introduce 1, but you want me to introduce 0, and there seems to be no 0 around me." There is only one 1, and that is me.

Shen Jia heard the words and said: "Don't force it, introduce it if you have it, let it go if you don't, it seems that you still have to rely on yourself to fall in love, if you are too deliberate, you may not meet it."

Shen Bo looked at Shen Jia and hesitated to speak.

Shen Jia stood up and looked at herself and said to Shen Bo: "Brother, don't look down on me. Although my figure is a little worse than yours, I am definitely not mediocre in the crowd! My abdominal muscles are only two times smaller than yours. It’s nothing more than a block! Overall it’s still very stylish.”

"Okay." Shen Bo couldn't refute for a while.

After the break at noon, after Shen Jia returned to her company, Shen Bo sat at the desk and couldn't help but frowned.

This little brother of his is really going to create "surprises" for him unexpectedly.

Apart from the family affairs that made Shen Jia feel relieved, there is another thing to celebrate. The lawyer sent him an email in the afternoon. There was a new development about Zhou Fei's case, and the verdict will be pronounced at the end of July. , is estimated to be sentenced to ten years in prison.

Ten years is very important to everyone, Shen Jia felt that this punishment was severe enough, and did not pursue more responsibilities.

There are some things that you can do unscrupulously if you think they are just trivial things, because the consequences may exceed your estimation and imagination. It is the most stupid to treat the law as nothing with a fluke mentality.

He didn't sympathize with Zhou Fei, with his arrogant attitude at that time, even if the police came, he still kept a foolish look, not afraid at all, so Shen Jia hardened his heart, telling himself that no one would soften his heart if he begged.

After Shen Jia got off work, she specifically explained to her family that she would not eat at home in the evening, and took Zhou Zun, called Minmin and Chen Bumin, who had been in hiding for a long time, to go outside for a gathering.

He sees Zhou Zun every day. This time, he mainly invites Minmin and Bumin. After all, Minmin is a very busy person, and it is rare for him to have a meal together. Since Chen Bumin has become an employee, he is busier than financial dogs like them. It is rarer than Minmin to attend their party.

Coupled with the fact that people are in good spirits on happy occasions, it's time for their friends to get together.

In the private room, Zhou Zun and Minmin sat together, showing great hospitality, making Chen Bumin and Shen Jia, the two single dogs, keep rolling their eyes.

Shen Jia said to Minmin: "Minmin, if there is any good candidate by your side, remember to introduce it to me and Bumin. I thought about it in my own circle, and found that either there is someone, or it is not suitable. , you are out of the order, don't forget our good partners."

Chen Bumin said helplessly: "I don't need to worry about Minmin. Since I successfully landed, my family has arranged a continuous blind date. If you didn't invite me today, my dad would not let me out. I arrange a blind date."

Shen Jia said with emotion: "Outsiders think that people at our level, even if they don't take the initiative, there will be a lot of people coming, and there will never be a shortage of people around them. As everyone knows, most of them have to rely on blind dates to solve their personal problems."

Sun Minmin put down the tea in his hand, and said teasingly, "It's a pity that you are heterosexual, otherwise you two can digest it internally."

Chen Bumin looked at Shen Jia with a smile and joked, "If Jiajia is willing to be 0, I can be wronged and be his 1."

Shen Jia raised her foot and pretended to kick Chen Bumin, but Chen Bumin dodged it, saw Shen Jia puffed up her chest and said, "Are you kidding me, we two want to talk, because I love you and be your only one." A pun.

Zhou Zun stood next to him and said fearlessly: "Why bother to insist on being heterosexual, just let Shen Jia and his elder brother digest it internally. Doesn't his elder brother also have the same sexual orientation as him, and I have seen everyone around Jiajia, and there is no For someone who is better than his elder brother, if he finds a partner according to his elder brother's standards, Jiajia will probably be single for the rest of his life."

Shen Jia glanced at Zhou Zun and said, "I didn't scold you enough last time, don't keep making fun of my brother."

Zhou Zhen said regretfully, "I don't think you are both single, but also have the same sexuality, and you are both so outstanding. It's a pity not to be together."

Chen Bumin seemed to have never thought about this possibility. After hearing the words, he thought about it carefully and said, "Zhou Zun seems to be right. Why don't you talk to your brother? What if it's suitable? Only your brother can hold it back." Not to mention, the picture made up by the brain is quite touching.

Shen Jia said: "When you're in a relationship, what do you want to suppress? Stop it, don't bring my brother out, my brother is pure and clean, I can't think of it."

After hearing this, Zhou Xun thought of something and suddenly burst out laughing.

Everyone looked at him.

He hesitated and smiled and said, "Is Jiajia afraid that she can only be 0 when she is with brother, so she doesn't consider digesting with brother Shen?" behind.

But Sun Minmin didn't defend Zhou Zun, she raised her hand and said to Shen Jia, "I won't stop you, you can hit me whatever you want."

Shen Jia didn't disappoint Sun Minmin, and jumped up and chased after Zhou Zun, who was attacked in a burst. After being knocked on the head by Shen Jia, Zhou Zun rubbed his head and accused Sun Minmin.

"We are husband and wife, we should be one. How can you give up on me at a critical moment!"

Shen Jia helped Minmin and said to Zhou Zun: "Our friendship has been established since we were young, and you have only known Minmin for a long time! How could you replace me! You think everyone is as heartless as you!"

Zhou Xun waved his hand and said, "Okay, I can't offend you, let's not offend you guys." Seeing Shen Jia's respect for his elder brother, Zhou Xun didn't keep talking about it.

The group had dinner, went to the bar for a while, and did not go back until 0 o'clock. Sun Minmin went directly to his residence with Zhou Zhen, and Shen Jia took Chen Bumin back to Feili Mountain.

It's just that he didn't expect to see a woman when he went to the parking lot to pick up the car after seeing off Sun Minmin and Zhou Zhen.

At first, Shen Jia didn't recognize who this person was, until she opened her mouth to express her intentions, then she realized that this person was Zhou Fei's mother, Ming Xian, the mistress who got involved in her sister's marriage, and Zhang Xingyun's aunt.

Compared with last year's appearance, Ming Xian was very thin and haggard, with sunken eye sockets, when she saw Shen Jia, she immediately knelt down.

She pleaded and said to Shen Jia: "I am Zhou Fei's mother, I'm sorry Mr. Shen, my son did such a thing, it's too selfish to say that I hope you will give him a chance, after all, he brought you Serious injury, but he is still young, the lawyer said that he will face ten years in prison, ten years, there can be several decades in a person's life! I don't ask you to let him go, but can you not be so ruthless, grace A few years, let him go! I can agree to any conditions you ask!"

Mingxian didn't know who her son had offended at first, but after asking his friends, she found out that he had offended the Shen family. She hired a lawyer for her son and wanted to ask Zhang Fan, but Zhang Fan didn't see her at all, and she At the beginning, she couldn't see her son at all, and she didn't know how he was inside. She kept running around because of this matter. She thought it was a fight, and if it was serious, it would be a year or two at most. She wasn't that worried, but when the lawyer said It also involved threatening the country's scientific research personnel and so on. It may have started at least ten years ago, so she couldn't sit still.

She had long wanted to see Shen Jia and intercede for her son, but she never had the chance. Ever since that happened, this person has been inseparable from her family and rarely goes out alone.

She managed to seize this opportunity today. Until now, she never thought of hurting Shen Jia, but only wanted to plead for mercy for her son. Through her lawyer, she already knew the power behind this person, so how dare she do harm without thinking again? his business.

Shen Jia took a step back, avoiding the direction where Ming Xian was kneeling.

Interrupting Mingxian's pleading, she said, "Sorry, I can't decide this case, it's beyond my control."

Mingxian took two steps forward and said, "But the lawyer said that as long as you can write a letter of understanding, the judge will definitely consider it! Maybe you can reduce your sentence!"

Shen Jia said blankly: "Why should I write an understanding letter for him? I never thought about forgiving him. If you dare to do some things, you must dare to do it, and you must stand firm when you are beaten."

Without waiting for Ming Xian to say anything more, Shen Jia got into the car and directly threw Ming Xian who was kneeling on the ground to pick up Chen Bumin.

Whether it was Zhou Fei or his mother Ming Xian, Shen Jia didn't have a good impression, and couldn't keep polite.

Originally, she thought that Ming Xian would be sensible by showing such indifference, so she would stop posting in vain to seek the understanding of the person concerned.

How could he forgive, from the moment Zhou Fei blocked him, he said that as long as he didn't kill him, he would make Zhou Fei regret what he had done.

But Shen Jia ignored the role of a woman as a mother. After Mingxian was rejected in the garage, she appeared downstairs in Shen Jia's company the next day. She didn't step forward to harass her, but just watched Shen Jia enter and leave the building with a sad face. His eyes begged, hoping to get a little mercy from Shen Jia.

Shen Jia still ignored her, seeing that Mingxian persisted for two days and would continue to persist, so she called Zhang Xingyun directly.

"That little aunt of yours has been waiting for me downstairs in my company these days, trying to make me soften up and let Zhou Fei go, why don't you take care of it?"

Zhang Xingyun hadn't received a call from Shen Jia for a long time. Ever since he confessed to Shen Jia, Shen Jia kept a distance from him, probably because he didn't want to misunderstand him and made him feel that they still had hope. He regretted the confession, although he didn't regret it at the moment when he revealed his heart, but later he became a little annoyed when he distanced himself from Shen Jia, because there were not many interesting people around him, and Shen Jia was one of them, but in the end he was rejected because he fell in love with her. marginalized.

Seeing the caller ID, it was Shen Jia, he was stunned for a moment, thinking it was his eyesight.

After answering the phone and hearing Shen Jia's complaint, Zhang Xingyun said, "I thought you asked me out for tea or to play tennis, but it was because of her." She still remembers how she betrayed her mother and hurt her mother together with her father as a younger sister.

Shen Jia rubbed her head and said, "Drinking tea and playing tennis are trivial things, get her away quickly, those who don't know will think she is the victim and I am the perpetrator."

Zhang Xingyun hummed, and said frankly: "This is a trivial matter. When we drink tea together, I can't say that I like you. We can't even be friends."

Shen Jia said helplessly: "You take her away, when will you take her away, and when will we drink tea together."

"Okay, then I'll send someone to deal with it now, come out in the afternoon and let's have tea together."

"I have something to do this afternoon."

"That night."

"What tea to drink tonight?"

"It's not suitable for drinking tea at night, let's have a light meal together."

Seeing Zhang Xingyun's insistence, Shen Jia thought that there was really nothing to do at night, just having a meal together. What Zhang Xingyun said just now was right. He couldn't expel the other party from his circle just because he liked him. Except for private hypocrisy, the two People are still partners, and businessmen will not just focus on this issue and cut off contact.

Since the other party had already brought up that matter on his own initiative and seemed to have let it go, why should Shen Jia keep thinking about it, as if he had become the one who couldn't let go.

"Okay, let's have dinner together tonight."

"That's right." Zhang Xingyun said with a smile in his tone.

Shen Jia also couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, hurry up and get rid of her, and make her give up. I won't forgive Zhou Fei. He can just stay inside and start a new life in ten years."

After hanging up the phone with Zhang Xingyun, Shen Jia looked at the entrance of the building in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows an hour later. Before that, Mingxian would stand by the roadside at the entrance of the building. Shen Jia went to look now, but the person had disappeared.

Shen Jia's mood brightened, she came out of the building after get off work in the afternoon, looked around, but she didn't see the woman.

Well, the world cleared up again.

The meal he asked for was worth it.

After driving to the restaurant that Zhang Xingyun had made an appointment with, but Zhang Xingyun hadn't arrived yet, Shen Jia chose a seat by the window to sit down and began to look at the menu.

Zhang Xingyun sent him a message, asking if he had arrived. After Shen Jia replied, he quickly sent a message saying: "I have something to do here, it may be half an hour late."

Shen Jia said: "It's okay, you are busy with your work, I can enjoy the scenery and drink some water to rest. Today is very busy, and my mind is almost confused." I just sat alone for a while.

Twenty or ten minutes later, Zhang Xingyun finally appeared in front of Shen Jia. Shen Jia consciously believed that the meal was invited by him, and confidently picked up the menu and ordered a few dishes, and then handed it to Zhang Xingyun to order casually.

"I invite you to eat this meal, you can order whatever you want. If you are soft-hearted, there will be no such shop after passing this village."

Zhang Xingyun was also polite and said, "Okay."

After ordering, Zhang Xingyun took out a small gift box from his arms, which was a watch, before the food was served. He put it on the table and pushed it in front of Shen Jia.

Shen Jia looked at Zhang Xingyun without knowing why, with puzzled eyes.

Zhang Xingyun said calmly: "I prepared the birthday gift before. I thought you would hold a birthday party and waited for you to invite me, but it passed quietly. No one invited me. I didn't send it out for a while. Today I will give it to you while finally meeting, so as not to leave dust in the house."

Of course Shen Jia refused.

"The birthday has passed, there is no need to give any birthday presents, don't be so polite." Pushing the presents back.

Zhang Xingyun looked at the gift, then looked at Shen Jia and said: "This gift was originally chosen for you, and it can only be given to you. If you push it back, it will only be dusted. Don't give it to me just because I told you before." Bai, I can't even do what ordinary friends can do, you accept it, it's not that I don't accept your gift on my birthday, I will never invite you on my birthday, you want to refuse?"

After being told by Zhang Xingyun, Shen Jia was really embarrassed to continue to refuse. After Zhang Xingyun finished speaking, he pushed the gift in front of Shen Jia again.

Shen Jia couldn't tell the brand of this watch, but through the glass case, he could see the exquisiteness of this watch, and just by looking at it, he knew that the price must not be low.

Zhang Xingyun said: "It's a customized model with an astrolabe design on the dial. I think it looks pretty good. I hope you like it."

Shen Jia took a look at it and said, "It's beautiful, thank you."

Zhang Xingyun spread the napkin on his lap and said, "I thought I had no chance to give it to you, but it's okay." With a smile.

Shen Jia also laughed and asked, "When is your birthday?"

"I will invite you on your birthday."

"Then you can tell me first, so I can prepare in advance."

"You can send anything, just a heart, no need to prepare in advance."

Maybe it was Zhang Xingyun's attitude that made Shen Jia relax slowly, not as stiff as she was at the beginning, and gradually let go of the matter of "the other party likes me".

The two came and went, all fell into the eyes of Shen Bo who also came here to eat. Shen Jia had her back to Shen Bo, so she didn't see him, and Zhang Xingyun only focused on Shen Jia, and also didn't see this famous person. man.

From Shen Bo's point of view, the younger brother was chatting and laughing with the other party, and even accepted the gift from the other party. His heart was heavy and he wanted to go up and take him away, but he knew he couldn't do that. If he treated his younger brother so arrogantly and rudely , will only make the younger brother hate him.

He knew Zhang Xingyun, but he didn't know that the relationship between his younger brother and him was so close.

Yes, the moment Shen Jia accepted the other party's gift, Shen Bo felt that their relationship was not as simple as a partnership. This guess made his heart feel heavy, and it was like a bottle of vinegar had been broken. Jealousy filled the air.

Shen Bo found that she had reached the point where she couldn't stand her younger brother chatting and laughing with others. From the beginning, she just felt that her attitude towards her younger brother was a bit strange, to when she was sure that she cared about and liked her younger brother, and was worried that he would like someone else. This desire for monopoly became stronger and stronger, and Shen Bo found that she had completely changed herself.

Become out of control, become involuntary.

He really wanted to know what they were talking about, and wanted to cover Shen Jia's eyes to prevent him from looking at other people, and he just wanted him to look at him, just look at him.

Shen Bo didn't see him chatting and laughing with others so intimately, Shen Bo really didn't know that he had reached this point.

This dinner can be said to be boring, the chair seems to have nails, no matter how uncomfortable it is to sit on, the friend sitting across from him eats slowly, after tasting the exquisite ribs, he adds fuel to the fire and says: "See Your dear dear brother, why don't you go to say hello."

Shen Bo put down the knife and fork, wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "He is having dinner with his friends, why bother?"

The friend nodded meaningfully and said, "Oh, why, isn't this your favorite restaurant? Today's food doesn't suit your taste?"

Shen Bo stared intently at the friend who had been on fire, put down the napkin and said, "Will talking less make you less happy?"

The friend pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Is it so difficult to admit that I like the other party?"

Shen Bo raised her eyebrows and said, "Do I admit it?"

"Now that you've admitted it, you still don't do anything. Is this your Young Master Shen's style? Why, as you get older, your ambitions decrease?" The friend sarcastically sarcastically.

Shen Bo sighed and said: "It's not that you are in my situation, you used to only think of him as your younger brother's pet, but you suddenly found that you care about him not only because of your younger brother, would you just rush over?"

"I've also met your brother a few times. I can see how much he respects and admires you, so you want to wait for him to understand and take the initiative to show his affection to you. You just want to see the sun come out from the west. You have to know that once Thinking that all the feelings are just family, it’s hard to change your mentality. He doesn’t have a friend as transparent as me around him.” At this point, the friend glanced at the distance, shook a glass of wine and said, “You My brother seems to be ready to leave after eating."

Shen Bo immediately turned his face to look sideways, endured it, and finally stood up.

The friend took a sip of champagne and said, "Remember to pay before you leave."

Shen Bo didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned and left.
