Chapter 294: Unhappy

Qi Jingzhen had finished answering the phone call. She walked over here and saw that the brother and sister on the sofa were talking and laughing, not knowing what they said so happy.
Jianbo had never laughed in front of him before, and as expected, he still didn't kiss him. Qi Jingzhen came over, and Jianbo did not ask about the phone, but introduced to Li Wei the dishes that this restaurant is good at.
"It is said that they hired a new chef who is good at Cantonese cuisine. I ordered several Cantonese dishes, and you will taste them for a while. It is said that the raw materials are all air-flighted from China to ensure that they are authentic."
When Li Wei and Jianbo talked about the Chinese restaurants in Chinatown, they always felt that the taste was not so bad. At this time, Li Wei missed Liu Chunzhi's craftsmanship.
"Speaking of my mother's cooking skills, I always miss her cooking after being outside for a long time. Although it is not super delicious, the ingredients are not too particular, but it is really home." Li Wei remembered. Liu Chunzhi's potato roast beef couldn't help but swallow.
"It was like this when I was outside. When I was in the United States, I also missed my mother's cooking. In the end I couldn't help but ran to the supermarket to buy two cans of flavored tempeh rice..."
Before Li Jianbo finished speaking, Qi Jing really interjected abruptly: "At the beginning, you were forced to go out and live by yourself, and you didn't want to speak to me after having a hard time. After all these years, what do you think of me?"
Qi Jingzhen's sudden complaint made all the brothers and sisters over there stunned, and the scene became very embarrassing. Only then did Li Wei realize that they were just having a good chat with themselves, forgetting that Qi Jing really existed. This was the second brother's biological mother, an independent and tough woman. But no matter how tough and capable, she is still a mother after all, and there are some things that she can't talk about.
She secretly pushed her second brother, and then Li Jianbo said, "Don't be angry, I was already an adult when I came out, so why don't you ask for money again if you are ashamed, as long as you work hard to support yourself, it shouldn't be a big problem. ."
This mother and son get along really strangely. Although they recognized each other, Qi Jingzhen did not find her son.
Qi Jing really laughed, but that smile was full of bitterness and helplessness in the eyes of others like Li Wei. No wonder she would call herself a failed mother. Li Wei had never given birth to any children, but she had an adopted son in Daqi. At that time, their orphans and widows did not stand firm. The regent and several ministers outside can be described as covering the sky with their hands. The situation is too passive. The young emperor was just a child, but took on the heavy responsibility that he shouldn't take at that age. As an adoptive mother, she could only give comfort and encouragement, and then she did her best to shelter him.
No one in the room spoke for a while, until there was a knock on the door, and Li Jianbo went over and opened the door. It turned out that the waiter from the restaurant came to deliver the meal.
Li Wei helped clean up the table and set the tableware. Then he came over and said to Qi Jingzhen: "Auntie, come over for dinner."
Qi Jingzhen suddenly clutched her chest and said, "Forget it, eat it, I have no appetite."
"Auntie, you still have to eat no matter what kind of food, don't have trouble with your body."
Qi Jingzhen was unwilling to listen to Li Wei's dissuasion. She waved her hand and said, "Go and eat. I'll go in and lie down for a while."
Qi Jingzhen slowly returned to the house where she lived. Here, Li Jianbo pulled Li Wei over to sit down, and took the initiative to help her with food and dinner, originally requiring a bottle of white wine. Not long after the wine was taken out of the refrigerator, it was still a bit cold.
Li Jianbo was about to open the bottle but Li Wei stopped him: "I don't drink."
Qi Jing really had something in her heart and refused to come out to eat with them, and Li Wei couldn't eat and drink calmly here. She only ate two bites of food casually, and then stopped eating.
"Although dinner is not particularly important, you have to fill your stomach, don't treat yourself badly, be careful of your body and protest again. Here I can't be by your side to take care of you for a long time." Li Jianbo said and helped Li Wei serve a bowl of chicken soup.
After drinking the chicken soup in the bowl, Li Wei refused to eat it again, so he put down his chopsticks. It may not be good for her to stay here, but she has to say hello to the hostess to leave. Li Wei was about to walk to Qi Jingzhen's room, but Li Jianbo held her.
"Forget it, let her rest, don't go in and disturb her, I will tell her later."
"That's not great."
"What's wrong, nothing wrong. I'll take you down." Li Jianbo had already taken Li Wei's chain bag on the sofa.
Li Wei was taken out of the room by her second brother.
As night fell, the lights came on.
When he arrived at the cafe below, Li Wei suddenly said: "Second brother, let's go in and sit down. We haven't seen each other for a long time, I'll talk to you."
Li Jianbo did not refuse her request.
Li Wei had already had a cup of coffee when she was in the room, and here she ordered a cup of warm milk.
After sitting down, Li Wei also bluntly said: "Second brother, there is still a gap between you and aunt?"
"It's normal to have a gap. I'm already 30 years old. Can I still let me go to her arms like a child to act like a baby? When I get older, some things will fade naturally."
"No, no, brother..." Li Wei pursed his lips and continued: "Since you have chosen to return to her, why don't you get along with her? You are a person who values ​​your family very much. Such an indifferent person. Didn't you still help aunt with some business before."
Being preached by Li Wei, Jian Bo felt a little bored, because he had experienced family destruction and life and death, so he only cherished the people around him after he started over. In the previous life, he did not recognize his biological mother, but in this life he felt that it might be good to choose another path. But there was never that kind of affection between their mother and son, and there were knots in each other's hearts. He Qi Jingzhen couldn't express his true feelings like in front of Liu Chunzhi.
"Second brother, I know that you cherish the present more than anyone else, so please stick to it."
"Don't worry, I know what I am doing. I have to stay in London for another three or five days. We will come out to play together when you have time."
Li Jianbo drove Li Wei into a taxi, and stood alone in the dark when he saw the car driving far away before walking back.
The bright lights of the hotel made him feel cold and hard, and there was no temperature at all. He slipped one hand into his trouser pocket and slowly returned to the suite on the 21st floor.
The food on the table was already cold, so he called someone to clean it up. Tilted her head and looked at it, Qi Jing was still asleep. He stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows and overlooked the bustling and lively city.
Twenty minutes later, Qi Jingzhen's companions came to her to discuss the contract. Li Jianbo blocked Qi Jingzhen: "She may be uncomfortable, so please ask again tomorrow."
"What about the chairman, did she have a heart attack again?"
Li Jianbo's expression changed slightly, and he was surprised: "Heart attack?!"
