Chapter 657
Hearing Zhou Shihe's words, Li Heng was caught off guard.
There are so many people watching on the scene, there are Zhou family relatives, friends, and classmates; Comrade Shihe, what kind of trouble are you trying to make?
Facing Zhou Shihe's smiling eyes, Li Heng suddenly felt a bit creepy, feeling that the girl in front of him was putting him in check: putting him in check, and also putting herself in check.
Putting him in check is easy to understand: just now in the small building at No. 26, he chose Song Yu. And some things can be done once but not twice; Zhou Shihe wanted to see if Li Heng had the courage to ignore her twice in a row?
If he ignores Zhou Shihe twice, what will be the consequence?
The answer is almost self-evident.
At the same time, Zhou Shihe is also putting herself in check.
Or to put it another way, it's called burning the bridges, seeking life in death.
At this very moment, having been deceived once, she had nothing left to lose, and just wanted to measure how much weight she had in Li Heng's heart?
If Li Heng still didn't care about her, she could give up in advance and never have any contact with him again in the future.
If Li Heng compromised and adopted a compromise strategy, then her contest with Song Yu had only just begun, and who wins and who loses in the future depends on their own abilities.
On such an occasion, Zhou Shihe didn't expect Li Heng to favor her entirely; that wasn't very realistic. She just wanted to break Song Yu's sense of superiority and pierce Song Yu's golden body covered in love.
In a word, Zhou Shihe's all-in was a conspiracy; either Li Heng you choose to follow, or you don't. After she did this, she could calmly accept whatever the outcome was.
The choice was handed to Li Heng.
The pressure was also handed to him.
Everyone in the room had their eyes focused on Li Heng.
Song Yu looked at him with a faint smile, without showing any impatience.
Zhou Shihe was also very calm, letting the various complex eyes of relatives and friends wash over her; she was like an enlightened monk, already able to achieve the high realm of not being happy with things and not being sad with herself.
The most relaxed mood was Yu Shuheng; she was very happy to see Song Yu and Zhou Shihe fight, very happy to see Zhou Shihe forced into a dead end; as for who won and who lost between these two women? For her, it was all a harvest.
The heaviest mood was Zhou's mother; her gaze wandered between her daughter and Li Heng, finally settling on Li Heng's face; she wanted to know: what would Li Heng do?
What would Li Heng do?
What exactly would he do?
Only seeing Li Heng stretch out his right hand, grab Song Yu's wrist, and say to Zhou Shihe with a smile: "Okay, this is your home court, you are the biggest, you have the final say."
After speaking, Li Heng brought Song Yu over and sat down with Zhou Shihe.
At this time, a strange scene appeared.
Li Heng sat in the middle, Zhou Shihe sat on his left, and Song Yu sat on his right.
One man and two women, sitting there, were very pleasing to the eye, very harmonious, making people couldn't help but marvel.
But those in the know understood, where was the harmony? There were only swords and shadows.
Seeing Li Heng follow her expectations and indeed adopt a compromise strategy, Zhou Shihe smiled knowingly; the goal was achieved. Her confidence was also restored.
Song Yu looked at Li Heng meaningfully; she wasn't surprised by this result at all; after all, Zhou Shihe's charm was there, and there were few men in the world who could resist it.
Sandwiched between the two women, Li Heng felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, but still smiled and shouted for everyone to take their seats and start the banquet.
Zhou's mother sat beside her daughter, and others sat as they pleased, without so many rules. Soon a table of people was surrounded warmly, and the atmosphere was reignited under the teasing of the two lively treasures, Ye Ning and Sun Manning.
However, Zhou Shihe's next move made everyone's eyelids jump.
Zhou Shihe was the birthday star, right? She used her chopsticks first, but her dish didn't go into her own bowl, but in front of everyone, she openly put it into Li Heng's bowl.
She picked up the Liang Xi crispy eel that Li Heng loved to eat.
Zhou Shihe said gently: "I made this dish myself, try it."
Yesterday she asked Li Heng: Is there any dish you want to eat?
Li Heng answered: Dry pot duck, Liang Xi crispy eel, and Wensi tofu.
Seeing her daughter's actions, Zhou's mother took a deep breath secretly, trying her best to keep her heart calm, her gaze staying on Li Heng's face for a while again, and then she greeted everyone to eat with a smile; she was very friendly, calling everyone at the table and taking care of everyone's emotions.
Taking advantage of Zhou's mother greeting people at the table to eat and drink, Li Heng quickly picked up a chopstick of dishes for Song Yu and Zhou Shihe respectively.
Zhou Shihe scanned Song Yu, and Song Yu also looked at her; the two women seemed to have a tacit understanding, and both lowered their heads to eat at the same time.
Seeing that the two aunts didn't make trouble, Li Heng felt relieved for no reason, then silently picked up a chopstick of dishes for Professor Yu and chatted with Professor Yu for a few sentences.
Yu Shuheng was very surprised, and the look she gave him was full of meaning: Comfort these two beside you well, you don't need to worry about me.
Li Heng pretended not to see Professor Yu's teasing, chewed a chopstick of crispy eel in his mouth, chewed a few times, and whispered to Zhou Shihe: "Comrade Shihe, thank you, this dish is delicious."
Zhou Shihe hummed neither salty nor light.
Li Heng observed the dining table, then said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Birthday today, please let me go."
Let you go from what?
They both knew it well.
Hearing his plea for mercy, Zhou Shihe's clever little mouth pouted, endured, and finally couldn't help but ask with a knowing smile: "Do you want me to help with dinner?"
Li Heng thought, no need, I'm already afraid of you, how dare I let you go to the small building at No. 26? If you and Song Yu fight again, won't the kitchen be overturned by you two?
Li Heng said: "It's your birthday today, you've been busy for half a day, rest well in the afternoon. I cook very fast, they are all farm dishes, it won't take long."
Hearing this, Zhou Shihe glanced at him; some things are better left unsaid, and she turned to chat with the aunt and others beside her.
Li Heng picked a few dishes that Song Yu loved to eat, and while picking dishes for her, said: "Accompany me to the vegetable market later, we will eat at home in the evening."
Song Yu said okay.
Li Heng asked: "How many days of leave did you ask for this time?"
Song Yu said: "You should have read the newspaper; if it doesn't affect your work, I can stay here for a few more days."
Hearing this, Li Heng was happy and worried.
Happy because he could stay with Song Yu.
Worried because there was Xiao Han here, Mai Sui, Professor Yu, and a terrifying Fudan big king. The days would probably be hard to pass.
He didn't know if Xiao Han would come today? When would she come?
If this black-bellied wife came, the small building at No. 26 would never be peaceful again.
Maybe it was because she listened to Li Heng's "please let me go," the following birthday banquet went smoothly, and Zhou Shihe didn't make any more trouble, which made Li Heng feel very relieved.
After eating, it was time to eat the birthday cake.
When Zhou Shihe finished making her wish and blew out the candles, everyone present couldn't help but secretly think: Who will Shihe give the first piece of cake to? To Zhou's mother? Or to Li Heng?
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhou Shihe picked up the knife and fork to cut the cake, cut the first piece quietly, and then tilted her head to look at Li Heng.
Everyone's heart tightened: Is it coming again?
Sure enough, the next second Zhou Shihe sent the cake to Li Heng, saying gently: "Li Heng, the pure music album made me gain a lot, I have never thanked you, this is the cake for my 20th birthday, it is very meaningful to me, I give the first piece to you."
Seeing Zhou Shihe showing favor to Li Heng again and again today, everyone wasn't a fool and smelled a different taste.
