Chapter 8 Dinner Party
“It’s almost dinner time, go ahead and do whatever you need to do.”
Su Chengyi gave the order to expel guests.
Then he walked to the classroom without looking back.
But as soon as he reached the downstairs of Building A, Su Zelang caught up with him and took his arm.
"Dad just put off the entertainment. It's more important to eat with his son."
Su Chengyi endured it for a while, but slowly took out his hand.
He was not dissatisfied or losing his temper, he just instinctively resisted physical contact.
Su Zelang thought he was angry, rubbed his hands in embarrassment, and said cautiously:
"I just asked you, Teacher Li, to rest this afternoon and start the official class tomorrow. Let's Let’s go get something to eat.”
Su Cheng suddenly felt a little guilty when he saw him looking so humble, so he nodded lightly.
Su Zelang's tense body suddenly relaxed, and he led him towards the school gate with a smile.
“Your mother also wants to eat with you, but she doesn’t want to eat with dad. So next time she will take you to eat alone.”
“What does my son want to eat? Do you want a seafood buffet? ?
Or eat the hamburgers, fries, pizza, etc. that your kids like?”
When it comes to food, Su Chengyi is really not very picky.
He doesn't eat much, so going to the buffet will be a big loss.
So he thought for a moment and replied:
"Let's eat pizza."
If you can't finish it, you can pack it back to make two meals.
Su Zelang was secretly happy in his heart. Su Chengyi seemed to be too precocious, and he was often a little worried.
Fortunately, my son still likes these foods that children love to eat.
There is a shopping mall near No. 1 Middle School, where students love to eat and play. Students from No. 1 Middle School like to run in when they have some free time.
Li Tianwang once ordered that any senior high school students who dare to go to the mall to play during lunch break will be reported directly for criticism.
The mall is very close, it only takes five minutes to drive there.
Su Chengyi had never been to a shopping mall many times before, and she couldn't help but take a second look when passing various shops.
Su Zelang looked on but felt extremely sad.
Before I divorced Yang Liu, I was very poor.
Occasionally, when I make some money, I just focus on eating, drinking and having fun. Often I am as heavy as four wallets. How can I have spare money to take my children shopping?
The child has been wearing several sets of school uniforms since he was a child. He occasionally buys new clothes for the child, and he wears each one until it turns white after washing.
Now that I have money, I am busy with work and taking care of my new family.
I really owe Cheng Yi too much. If it weren't for me on the street, I would really want to slap myself in the face.
Su Chengyi on the side had no idea that the old father beside him had thought so much.
He has just been out of this period for too long. He needs to listen to and watch more to have a down-to-earth sense of reality.
When he arrived at the pizza shop, Su Zelang couldn't wait to order everything in the shop.
Su Chengyi tried to stop him to no avail, so he let him go.
If you can’t finish it, you can pack it back.
The first one to arrive is the seafood supreme pizza. The golden-brown dough is dotted with shrimps, crab sticks, and squid rings. It looks very good.
Su Zelang didn't care about ironing it, and immediately picked out the piece with the most shrimps and handed it to Su Chengyi.
The hot cheese pulled out long strands. Su Chengyi was not in a hurry to eat it, and used a fork to put a piece of it on Su Zelang's plate.
"Okay, okay, let's eat together."
After Su Zelang made money from investing, he once vowed to eat everything he could not afford before.
Everything like foie gras, truffles, and caviar is eaten by those who are used to it and those who are not.
He actually didn’t realize how expensive these things were, so he often joked that he was like a wild boar who couldn’t eat fine chaff.
Today, he almost cried while eating the ordinary pizza in this ordinary fast food restaurant.
"Is it delicious, son? Dad thinks it's really delicious."
Su Chengyi thought it tasted like fast food, but seeing that Su Zelang seemed to be enjoying the meal, he nodded and said it was delicious.
After finishing a piece of pizza, other things I ordered came one after another.
Grilled chicken wings, anchovies shrimp, Wellington steak, and Italian bolognese lasagna filled the table. Su Zelang was helping Su Chengyi cut the steak into small pieces when his cell phone on the table suddenly rang.
The caller ID said "wife".
He was a little embarrassed for a moment and didn't know whether he should answer it or not.
Seeing him struggling to get off, Su Chengyi simply reached out and pressed the answer button for him.
A sweet voice came out through the external microphone:
"Honey, where are you~"
Su Chengyi's scalp went numb when he heard it, and he quickly picked up the cup to drink.
He did not expect that Su Zelang and his current wife would get along like this. He would have known better and would not have helped pick her up.
Su Zelang responded awkwardly:
"Didn't I tell you earlier? There is a meeting at Chengyi's school today, and I will take him to eat right now."
< br>"Where are you eating? I just picked up Xiaoxue from her dance class. Let's bring her over to have something to eat!"
"Dad! Don't call me when you eat delicious food!"
A childish voice protested loudly.
Su Zelang looked at Su Chengyi in embarrassment. The latter was eating the pasta on his plate and had no intention of commenting on it.
The phone was pressing again, so he had no choice but to agree.
“Okay, it’s in the shopping center next to No. 1 Middle School.”
After this phone call, both father and son fell into silence again.
Su Zelang was embarrassed to speak, and Su Chengyi didn't want to speak.
To say that I don’t mind would be a lie.
Su Chengyi actually felt very uncomfortable. He had never met any members of Su Zelang's new family, and he didn't want to see them at all.
But Su Zelang's attitude of half-promising and half-giving didn't allow him to refuse out loud.
Only about ten minutes later, a beautiful woman with exquisite makeup hurried in, holding a fat kid with braids in her hand.
“Dad!”
The little fat boy saw Su Zelang from a distance, ran over with a smile, and threw himself into his arms.
“You order so many delicious foods and you don’t even call me daddy. I don’t like daddy anymore!”
She pouted and lost her temper, Su Zelang quickly picked her up on his lap. Sit down and speak softly to comfort.
"Whatever Xiaoxue wants to eat, daddy will get it for you."
With a decent smile on her face, the beautiful woman sat down opposite Su Chengyi and greeted him friendly.
"This is Chengyi, you are so good-looking, much more handsome than your dad when he was young!"
Su Chengyi rolled up a circle of pasta on his fork without even raising his head. After eating, he whispered: "Thank you."
At this time, Xiaoxue, whose mouth was full of French fries, also noticed Su Chengyi's presence. She suddenly pointed at Su Chengyi and said vaguely:< br>
"I want my brother to hug me!"
Su Chengyi took out a tissue to wipe his mouth, and raised his eyes to look at the three people opposite him with some confusion.
The little girl's mouth was full of grease, her fat hands were raised towards him, and her body was leaning toward him.
The two adults were all smiling and seemed to be looking forward to the happy scene that would follow.
Ridiculous.
Su Chengyi picked up her schoolbag and turned around to leave.
"Sure!"
Su Zelang called him, as if he wanted to get up and chase him, but he was holding a child in his arms, so he had to explain to his wife and daughter in a nonchalant manner.
"Maybe he is in a hurry to go back to study. He is in his third year of high school and time is tight."
Su Chengyi walked very quickly, and the glass door blocked the rest of the conversation between the three of them.
He regretted having this meal today. Just like in his previous life, the best way to deal with it was to keep things in check.
No matter which angle he looked at, he couldn't understand Su Zelang's intention.
At this time when the process of repairing the relationship between father and son has not yet begun, does he really think that he can skip these stages and live in harmony with his new family?
