Forever, beauty bone

Chapter 19 How to solve love (1)
When Shi Yi was alone in the hotel, he discovered that Zhou Shengchen's daily utensils and clothes were also in this suite.In other words, he didn't plan to live in a separate room with her, and she didn't feel anything during the day, but when the two of them returned to the hotel after dinner, she felt a little distracted.Fortunately, it was still early, and Mei Xing and his assistant were there, so she wouldn't directly think about being alone tonight.

The conversation between men is a little too rigorous.

She didn't know much about it, and asked him in a low voice: "Shall I make you tea?"

Zhou Shengchen smiled: "Are you bored?"

She pursed her lips: "No, I think you like drinking tea, and I happen to be able to make tea too."

The voice is a little soft, indifferent, and you can even hear euphemistic and hidden feelings, telling him that she actually wants to make him happy.Zhou Shengchen originally wanted to say wait for a while, finish it by himself, and make her a drink himself, but after hearing what she said, he was suppressed when he wanted to talk: "Have you ever learned tea art?"

She laughed, noncommittal.

The conversation between the two attracted Mei Xing, and he looked at Shi Yi with great interest: "I guess, Zhou Sheng, your wife should not only know how to make tea, but maybe she will give people even more unexpected surprises."

Zhou Shengchen was afraid that he would embarrass Shiyi, so he raised his hand and pointed at Mei Xing with his index finger: "Okay, don't make fun of her."

"I don't, I just think that your wife may like tea culture very much," Mei Xing looked at Shi Yi, "Shi Yi, I also like drinking tea, and as long as you can do it, I have utensils."

Shi Yi understood, what this man said was the drinking methods of different generations.

These are really hard for her.

She is not a person who likes to show herself very much, maybe with Zhou Shengchen by her side tonight, and facing his best friend, she is naturally unwilling to admit defeat: "I have read Lu Yu's "The Classic of Tea", and I also like to study These drinking methods. If Mr. Mei wants to try, it's not difficult."

Mei Xing was very happy: "How about making tea?"

Shi Yi couldn't help laughing: "Let's forget about this, use onion, ginger, jujube, orange peel, dogwood, mint, etc. as condiments, and cook it to a boil. It's not troublesome for me to cook, but I'm afraid you won't be able to drink it."

Mei Xing persuaded with a smile: "Try it, it won't do anything."

Thinking of that smell, Shi Yi hesitated, but Zhou Shengchen patted his arm: "Don't bother with her, just make tea."

"Eh?" Mei Xing waved his hand, "There are people who know how to do it, how can we waste it? Since the tea is not cooked properly, I'll send someone to fetch tea cakes and utensils, let's try your wife's fried tea."

Mei Xing quickly asked his assistant to fetch utensils, cakes and tea.

Because of this unexpected proposal, their topic fell to tea.Shi Yi was sitting, listening to them chatting in a low voice about their tea experience, the images that emerged in their minds gradually became clearer.

He used to sit idle in his study, making tea with his bare hands.

Prepare utensils, choose water, make fire, cook soup, bake tea, grind tea, Luo tea, fry tea, drink tea, she watches carefully, not wanting to miss his every action, just to kill time.She watched, he did it, and he didn't feel bored.

At this moment, she didn't feel irritable when she did it.

She even liked this long process, giving back to him what he had bestowed on her.

Mei Xing is a tea lover, and even has four sets of tea sets.But Shi Yi is a veritable person who understands tea. From the beginning of choosing the tea set, to waiting for the fire to set the soup, to the heat of the tea, it is very much like an art performance.Mei Xing talked to Zhou Shengchen at first, but in the end both men looked at Shi Yi.

On the contrary, the people in the painting environment only concentrate on doing what they should do.

There is the fragrance of tea, but it only becomes an embellishment, making the painting more pleasant like a glaze.

Zhou Shengchen looked at her very attentively.

He doesn't understand a woman's mind, let alone the time, even if she has become his wife.She is such a person, why did she not have any emotional experience at the age of 26?He doesn't believe in any empty explanations, such as destiny, or fate, but now, he can only use these words to explain her feelings for him.

And what about myself to her?

Before Mei Xing left, he made no secret of his appreciation for Shi Yi.

She was a little embarrassed by what was being said, and she frequently cast glances at Zhou Shengchen for help. The latter understood, and patted Mei Xing's shoulder slowly, without saying a word.Communication between men does not require language, such as now.

Mei Xing smiled slightly, picked up his suit jacket and left without looking back.

The door lock snapped shut, leaving the two of them alone.

Shi Yi glanced at him: "You two really have a tacit understanding."

"I've known him since I was five or six years old," Zhou Shengchen smiled, "He has always been like this, he likes to say a few words when he sees a good-looking girl, don't mind too much."

Pretty girl?

Shi Yi always felt that it was a bit weird to say that. In principle, she should not only be a good-looking girl, but also his wife, although the two of them still get along like boyfriend and girlfriend now.

He walked to the bedroom, took clean clothes, habitually unbuttoned a few shirt buttons, and soon seemed to think of something, fastened two buttons scribbled, and walked into the bathroom.When the sound of water came out, Shi Yi finally remembered that tonight, he would sleep in the same room and bed with him.

She didn't know what to do for a while, so she sat down on the sofa in the living room.

If you sleep together, then...should be...

She exhaled softly.

He quickly came out of the bathroom, dressed neatly, giving the illusion that he was about to go out: "Wait a while before washing, I'll have someone clean it up." As he said, he had already entered the bedroom.

"It's okay..." Shi Yi stood up and wanted to get some clean clothes, but saw him taking a black coat and walking out while putting it on.She was a little strange: "Are you going out?"

"Well," Zhou Shengchen said, "there are some things in the laboratory, and we need a very long conference call."

He spoke quickly and looked at his watch naturally.

"Then will you be back tonight?"

"Yes, but it will be very late," he smiled to himself, "I drank tea just now, so I shouldn't feel very sleepy."

He quickly confessed a few words and left the hotel.

It would be a lie to say that I was not disappointed, but I was also relieved.Although she was somewhat prepared, she felt that something was missing between the two of them.The joy of fish and water, first of all, there must be a harmonious relationship between fish and water, so that it can happen smoothly, isn't it?

She came from a long distance, and walked more than half of Bremen with him. After washing with hot water, she felt exhausted.Sitting on the bed in her pajamas, she could feel that the bedding was not shared by the hotel, and it was extra soft.

After lying on the bed for a while, she fell asleep.

Because the subconscious mind was waiting for him, he naturally fell into a light sleep, and soon woke up when he heard the noise in the room.It's just that she still felt a little groggy. When she opened her eyes, the sky was already a little hazy.Zhou Shengchen was leaning on the sofa, just about to lie there casually to catch up on sleep, the room was dark and his face couldn't be seen.

"What time is it?" Shi Yi asked suddenly.

He paused, raised his wrist and glanced: "Five forty-seven."

"Then go to bed and sleep for a while..." she said softly, "sleeping on the sofa will be very tiring."

Zhou Shengchen paused for a few more seconds, put the suit jacket on the sofa, walked to the other side of the bed, and lay down next to her.The bed was huge, and she could feel that he was lying in a restrained manner, she couldn't help but smiled, turned over quickly, covered him with the quilt, and put her hands on his waist.Maybe she was still a little stumped, but she was inevitably more casual than usual, with a little teasing: "Zhou Shengchen, is it difficult for you to sleep on the same bed with your wife?"

"No, I was just afraid of waking you up." His voice was a little low.

"Already awake."

He smiled: "Don't sleep?"

"Sleep," Shi Yi replied frankly, "Because you didn't come back, I didn't sleep well. Now I feel dizzy and want to sleep."

"Then go to sleep." He stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms. "I only meet in the afternoon, so I can sleep with you for a longer time."

She pressed her face in front of him, through the thin fabric of the shirt, and heard him speak so logically, but thought it was a bit off.It was the first time to sleep in his arms. Although he was wearing a shirt and trousers, she was in pajamas...

After being so quiet for a while, she felt that her heartbeat was starting to become unstable, and she couldn't help moving her body.

"Can't sleep?" Zhou Shengchen noticed it and looked down at her, "Are you used to sleeping alone?"

She decided to change the subject.

"Today Your friend praised me a lot, but you haven't said anything yet."

There was disappointment in her voice.

Zhou Shengchen was slightly puzzled, but quickly understood: "I'm not very good at complimenting others, but you can always surprise me. Sometimes, I don't know what to say." She slightly raised the corners of her mouth and said softly: " So what do you get in return?"

"Return?" He thought for a while, "Tell me, what's going on in your mind?"

"You are responsible for putting me to sleep."

"Okay," he didn't mind, "how are you usually, do you fall asleep easily?"

"Listen to songs...or poetry, listen slowly for a while, and then fall asleep."

Zhou Shengchen fell silent for a while.

She closed her eyes, waiting for him to surprise herself.

"Just poetry, I'll read something related to tea, read it slowly."

Shi Yi hummed: "Can I say something I want to hear? You don't have to read it all, just a sentence or two is fine."

"Yes." Zhou Shengchen found Shi Yi's difficulty for the first time, but he thought it was cute.

"Bai Juyi?"

"He left more than 2000 poems, nearly [-] of which are related to tea..."

She laughed and interrupted: "Just whatever you want."

Really serious, a scientist who will fall into rigorous thinking if he is a little careless... Really...

Zhou Shengchen didn't think about it anymore, and responded casually: "The white porcelain pot is very clean, and the red furnace charcoal is burning brightly. The dust is fragrant under the foam, and the fish's eyes are boiling in the floating flowers. When it is full, it has a beautiful color, and the fragrance remains after swallowing."

Shi Yi didn't say anything, so he picked three or four more songs.

"Hmm..." She seemed satisfied, and continued, "Su Shi."

"Living water needs to be cooked with running water. It is deep and clear from the fishing stone. The big ladle is stored in the moon and returned to the spring urn, and the small ladle is divided into the river and poured into the night bottle. The snow milk has been fried to the feet, and the pine wind suddenly makes the sound of diarrhea. The dry intestines are not easy. Ban three bowls, lie down and listen to the length of the mountain city..."

At first she said some names, but when he got tired, he picked some at random and read them to her.

From Li Bai to Liu Yuxi, and those who are not very famous, it is not an obstacle to read while recalling.This was the first time he discovered that his good memory could do such interesting things.

Shi Yi listened comfortably and stopped making any noise.

She knew that he didn't understand the meaning of these. Although the poems were different, she had been coaxed to sleep like this before.Gradually, in Zhou Shengchen's deliberately slowed down voice, she gradually lost consciousness.He read to her with his eyes closed, slowing down more and more until he finally stopped.

The room was silent.

Because he was so close, he seemed to be able to hear her steady breathing.

Zhou Shengchen opened his eyes, looked at her patiently for a while, and after confirming that she had really fallen asleep, he closed his eyes again and let himself really fall asleep.

He slept for about two hours and woke up naturally at 07:30.

Shi Yi was still in a deep sleep. From Zhou Shengchen's angle, he could see the arc of her side face, down to her neck, and even the delicate skin inside her neckline.He just looked at it like this for a while, feeling some indescribable feeling in his heart, Shi Yi moved slightly, the hand that held the collar of his shirt loosened slightly for a while, but quickly tightened it again.

He propped himself up slightly, and called her softly: "Shi Yi?"

She didn't know if she was in a dream or in a daze, so she hummed.

He thought for a while, and finally chose to lower his head. The stubble that had been exposed overnight rubbed against her neck lightly, and Shi Yi subconsciously avoided it.

"Zhou Shengchen..." She woke up, her voice muffled.

"Ah."

"Have you read "Shanglin Fu"?" He asked.

Shi Yi hummed lightly.

She never mentioned "Shanglin Fu" to him, but she didn't expect him to talk about it first.

"The first time I saw you, I thought of "Shanglin Fu", which describes women." Zhou Shengchen felt that it was more difficult to let go of her than expected, so he could only speak in a low voice, "It's so different, Coquettish and elegant, it is very suitable to describe you."

This is the first time he talked about their first meeting.

It was also the first time he said something similar to love words to her.

Shi Yi closed his eyes and laughed.

She reached out and tried to touch his face.Zhou Shengchen stopped talking cooperatively, and let her fingers caress his browbones, eyes and bridge of nose. Shi Yi's movements were very gentle, and there was even a feeling that he couldn't understand.

"No matter how good your appearance is, there will be times when you are old and faded. You are the best in my heart," she said softly. There are bones. Most people in the world have shallow eyes, only see the skin, but not the bones. I can touch your beautiful bones."

Such subtle twists and turns, the bridge of the nose and the bone of the brow, have not changed in the slightest.

The meeting schedule of the International Committee for Space Research was very full. Although there was a full week, the time they spent together was not long.Shi Yi would also entertain himself, and after knowing his detailed schedule, he would disappear automatically and wander around Bremen.

Just in time for the Bundesliga season, she was even interested and watched a game on the spot.

She didn't have a boyfriend before, but Hong Xiaoyu was a die-hard German fan, who kept instilling all kinds of knowledge with her, so that she could even recognize those famous defenders, forwards, and centers when she sat in the stands of the stadium.

She told Hong Xiaoyu that she was on the field, and Hong Xiaoyu called immediately, insisting on feeling the atmosphere of the scene.

Fortunately, the seats around her were all vacant, so they wouldn't disturb others.

"Time is right, time is right, can you take me there next time?" Hong Xiaoyu said in a teary voice on the other end of the phone, "If you find a rich second generation, you will abandon me. I will pay for my own air ticket, as long as you provide me with food and lodging." Ah~"

"Okay, okay, next time I will provide you with board and lodging," Shi Yi was overjoyed, and after thinking about it, he added, "But next time I may not come to Germany."

Hong Xiaoyu muttered and continued to complain.

She listened, and casually touched the mineral water beside her, but unexpectedly, someone picked it up first and handed it to him.

She looked up, but she didn't expect to meet Zhou Wenchuan.

"What a coincidence." She sighed.

"It's not a coincidence," Zhou Wenchuan sat down next to her, "I've been in Bremen for a week, and I've always wanted to meet you."

Shi Yi was a little puzzled, but didn't ask any further questions. She took her own mineral water bottle: "Are you also in Bremen? I haven't heard your brother mention it."

"He didn't say that?"

"Ah."

Zhou Wenchuan smiled knowingly: "Maybe he is afraid that you will misunderstand."

"Misunderstand?"

"Misunderstanding him and my wife," Zhou Wenchuan didn't want to hide, "You may not know that my wife Tong Jiaren had an engagement with him when they were very young. It is also for this reason that my wife basically Follow in his footsteps, always be his junior sister, in other words, they can be regarded as growing up together."

When she met Tong Jiaren a few times before, she felt that she cared about Zhou Shengchen, but she didn't expect such a deep connection.Did he spend most of the first half of his life with Tong Jiaren?
Zhou Wenchuan continued: "The engagement was canceled for some reasons, and then...for some reasons, I married her." Zhou Wenchuan also felt that what he said was vague, and he shook his head and smiled, "There is something behind this." A lot of complicated stories, if you have a chance, I think you can ask my brother."

She nodded, guessing that if Zhou Wenchuan kept silent, it would definitely involve a lot of gray areas.

She didn't know if she was ready to hear Zhou Shengchen's background about the Zhou family, so she didn't ask.

"So you're here, and your wife is also here?" She thought of what Zhou Wenchuan said at the beginning, "I'm afraid you might misunderstand".

"Just like my brother, she is determined to devote herself to science," Zhou Wenchuan shrugged lightly. "Actually, I don't quite understand what they did. This time, they were all invited."

Zhou Wenchuan said some more words, most of which were just small talk.
