Zhao Jing took two steps back in confusion because he was the first to squeeze in. Tomorrow Cheng had already hugged the cat and went to bed.
Move as naturally as if this was his bed.
It took her a long time to react and stared: "Who asked you to come in?!"
As soon as she spoke loudly, the little kitten shrank in fear and bleated pitifully.
Zhao Jing's breath stagnated and she shut her mouth. Tomorrow Cheng gently stroked the little kitten's head and smoothed its fur. Under his comfort, the kitten gradually felt a sense of security, and then huddled in his arms. Under the palm of his hand, he looked at her timidly.
Zhao Jing suddenly felt that she had sinned terribly...
Tomorrow Cheng comforted the kitten and then looked up at her: "I'll stay with it for a while and wait until it falls asleep before leaving."
Zhao Jing opened her mouth to say something, but when she saw the pitiful little milk cat, her heart instantly softened.
The kitten was indeed a little uneasy here just now, meowing from time to time, and hiding under the pillow and not daring to show her face. Tomorrow when Cheng comes, it will let go of its courage and act like a baby.
It must have been very scared when it left its mother at such a young age.
Zhao Jing walked to the bed and sat down, carefully reaching out to touch the down on its head, her tone was a bit jealous: "Why isn't it afraid of you?"
"Maybe I'm a people pleaser."
Zhao Jing snorted: "Yes, I'm not lovable."
He was slightly startled, as if he didn't expect that she, who had always been proud, could say such self-deprecating words.
Zhao Jing looked at the kitten, lowered her eyes sadly, and said in a very soft voice, "No one likes me."
When she was born, her parents were disappointed because they wanted a son more. Later, when she had two younger brothers, they no longer complained about her. Instead, they wanted to push her out to marry and tie up their interests.
She knew that they liked her brother but not her.
There are many suitors around her, like Shen Jun, who are willing to put down their face to please her, but she also knows that they don't like her and they want to win over the power of the Zhao family.
Just like when her marriage to Shen Jun was disrupted, Shen Jun turned around and found a new girlfriend. He had no nostalgia for her.
No one likes her, not even the kitten.
"Xiao Jing." A flash of panic flashed in Ming Cheng's eyes, and his hand touching the kitten paused.
She didn't answer him, but stared blankly at the little kitten rubbing against his leg, but even so, she still wanted a kitten very much.
Tomorrow Cheng grabbed her hand and looked at her seriously: "Xiao Jing, you are very lovable."
He paused and pursed his lips: "At least I like it."
There was no wave in Zhao Jing's eyes, but a calmness that made him panic.
"Why do you like me?"
He was stunned for a moment, as if he had never thought about this problem.
"I have a bad temper, willful, and always make mischief. I am also disobedient and ignorant. I always make you angry. Why do you like me? Is it because you married me?"
It was the first time that Zhao Jing spoke to him so calmly. Her eyes turned red quietly. She lowered her eyes to hide her emotions: "Tomorrow Cheng, when we got married, although I was not willing, you don't have to feel guilty towards me."
"You think I just feel guilty for you?!"
Tomorrow Cheng's voice suddenly became louder, and the kitten under his hand meowed in fright, and then ran away quickly.
"if not?"
Otherwise she wouldn't be able to figure out why.
She pursed her lips tightly: "I haven't been angry with you about the marriage a long time ago. If I want to blame it, I should blame my parents, not you. Besides, you are so good to me. I know that I shouldn't be dissatisfied."
But she was afraid that she couldn't control it. She was afraid that he would know that in this world, he was the only one who was good to her. She was even more afraid that he would know that she was actually worthless. If he treated her better, she would not be able to help but like him.
She has nothing left, and her family is extremely disappointed in her. She was kidnapped without even the slightest thought of paying a ransom. She can only be his wife. She has no way out. If she even loses her sincerity, she will have nothing left. .
She suppressed the soreness in her throat and tried to break away from his hand.
But he held on tightly, not letting go even a little bit.
His face was not pretty, and for the first time he showed uncontrollable anger: "Xiao Jing, guilt is not enough for me to do those things for you. I can distinguish between responsibility and love. You don't need to teach me."
Zhao Jing looked at him blankly, her nose suddenly sore.
He looked at her intently: "This is also the first time I have loved someone. I don't know what it means to be considered love. I only know that I am happy when you are by my side. I am happy when you are happy. I am sad when you are sad." It doesn’t feel good either, I just know that I’m glad that I married you countless times.”
Zhao Jing was stunned, her eyes gradually turned red, her heart seemed to have been stabbed, and there was an indescribable sourness.
He seemed a little helpless and took her into his arms: "That cat clings to me because I have had it for three days. You have been avoiding me recently. I want to use this cat to ease our relationship."
He didn't expect her to be upset about it.
Zhao Jing was stunned for a moment, tears rolled down unexpectedly, but she was very strong and cursed angrily: "Why are you so mean-spirited!"
"I'm sorry, I just want to make you happy, Xiaojing, don't bow your head. In my heart, you are better than anyone else."
He didn't want to see her showing inferiority and self-abasement. He would rather she be proud, willful and ignorant.
Zhao Jing couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed his collar and buried her in his shoulder and cried.
Tomorrow Cheng patted her back gently: "Don't be sad."
Zhao Jing said unconvinced: "I'm not sad!"
He rubbed her hair and said slowly, "Xiaojing, would you like me a little too?"
Zhao Jing muttered: "I don't like you."
He was startled for a moment, and the corners of his lips raised silently. He knew that she always liked to speak ironically.
Well, she likes him.
After that day, Tomorrow Cheng "let nature take its course" and moved into Zhao Jing's room, euphemistically claiming to take care of the kitten. However, he was afraid of irritating Zhao Jing, so he only dared to take care of the cat and not her.
He knew there was no need to rush, he had to take his time and give her a little more time. Although he couldn't do anything substantial while sleeping in the same bed and it was a bit hard, he still felt much more at ease.
Zhao Jing's mood has gradually improved in the past few days. She talks to the kitten when she has nothing to do, feeds the kitten cat food, rubs its belly, and even pinches its nose to shovel its poop.
Now the kitten is even more attached to her, and she is getting more and more proud. Her kitten likes her the most.
On Friday, Tomorrow Cheng put down all his work and specially made time to spend time with her.
"What are we going to do?" Zhao Jing asked him.
Ever since she knew that today was Valentine's Day, she couldn't understand Tomorrow Cheng who was so persistent about it. What on earth could an old zombie like him be so passionate about about Valentine's Day?
"Dating."
Those who didn't know his official tone thought he was talking about a meeting.
Zhao Jing was a little sluggish. Is this word a bit too trendy for Tomorrow Cheng?
Tomorrow Cheng's attitude was very serious. He asked Shen Yan about it. A normal relationship begins with a date.
"Then what are you going to do on a date?" Zhao Jing asked again.
Tomorrow Cheng frowned slightly, he forgot to ask this question.
"What do you want to do?" He looked at Zhao Jing.
Zhao Jing snorted softly: "You don't even know what to do on a date? Why are you going on a date with me?"
Tomorrow Cheng looked at her slightly raised chin, and his heart skipped a beat. In an instant, he seemed to understand what he liked about her.
He likes her proud look, unreasonable pride, pride in getting lucky, pride in adding insult to injury. She always likes to raise her chin, as if she is powerful and arrogant.
She felt terrified as he stared at her and frowned: "What do you want me to do?"
Tomorrow Cheng thought about it again, and it seemed that he didn't stop. He also liked the way she frowned. Her eyes were full of vigilance, but also a little disgusting, arrogant and willful.
He couldn't help but want to press her down on the bed. Seeing how she was out of control and helpless, he called him an "animal" in a soft voice.
He suppressed the darkness in his eyes and withdrew his gaze with restraint: "You can do whatever you want."
Zhao Jing snorted: "Then let's go watch a movie."
She excitedly opened her phone and pulled out a movie for Tomorrow Cheng to watch: "Nuan Nuan's first movie is released, today!"
Tomorrow Cheng took a look at the poster. The style of the painting was a bit depressing. He frowned slightly and said, "Would you like to see this one?"
Zhao Jing nodded excitedly: "Yes, I heard it's a love story between an innocent female college student and a gangster!"
There is also a line of big words written on the poster "Romantic Movie Exclusively for Valentine's Day".
Tomorrow Cheng had a little more doubt in his eyes. He didn't know what this movie was about, but as far as he knew, Shen Yan accompanied Xiang Nuan to shoot this movie in Jiangling.
With Shen Yanshi's bad temper, how could he tolerate her filming a love story with another man under his nose?
But when he raised his eyes and saw Zhao Jing's excited and expectant eyes, he finally swallowed back his doubts.
Forget it, it's rare for her to be happy, so just let her be.
Drive and head to the cinema first.
The movie was released today, and now many couples are going on dates to watch movies. Xiang Nuan has become very popular recently, and the movie schedule is full, all for love movies.
They bought tickets and went in to sit down. The place was full of loving young couples.
"Wow Nuan Nuan is so popular now, but the date of this movie is also good, it happens to be Valentine's Day. Love movies are definitely popular on such a day."
Zhao Jing was eating popcorn while analyzing it seriously.
Tomorrow Cheng felt a little uneasy. He was a little worried whether this movie would ruin his plans for today.
At the beginning of the movie, Xiang Nuan walked out of the train station dragging his suitcase, wearing a white shirt and light-colored jeans, with a low ponytail, as pure as a jasmine flower.
Zhao Jing was amazed: "Nuan Nuan is really amazing, she acts like anything, she's so good!"
Tomorrow Cheng has begun to feel that the tone of this movie is not right.
Then the male protagonist, a little gangster, stopped the female protagonist from flirting with her. Zhao Jing cursed when she saw it: "This thing is actually the male protagonist? What kind of bad movie! My Nuan Nuan was blinded in vain!"
Then the heroine began to be "forced" to fall in love with the gangster.
Suddenly, the scene changed, and the body of the heroine's father, who had been missing for many days, was cut into pieces and floating on the river, in the sewer, and in the trash can.
Tomorrow Cheng frowned and turned to look at Zhao Jing. Sure enough, she began to stiffen and her face turned pale.
She may look powerful on the surface, but in fact she is timid and afraid of things. She dare not turn off the light when sleeping in the middle of the night. To her, this kind of movie is no different from a horror movie.
She had known she wouldn't watch the movie, but after watching the movie, she didn't know if she would still be in the mood to continue dating him.
He held her hand and asked in a low voice: "How about we change to a movie?"
She pretended to be calm: "What's the matter? I want to see who killed him, it must be that little gangster!"
The cinema also became quiet and fell into a dead silence. The young lovers who were still in love at the beginning were all holding their breath and did not dare to take a breath.
The movie begins a long and depressing process of solving the case. The heroine He Sijing's fragile and helpless collapse, the gangster's vulgar and unreasonable troubles, and the police's comfort and tracking make people's hearts twitch again and again.
At the end, a crying He Sijing suddenly appeared, wiping away her tears and her eyes gradually turned cold.
Zhao Jing's hands shook in fear, and her body became stiff.
Then the scene changed, and it was He Sijing holding a knife and stabbing her father's body with a blank expression, blood splashing on her pure and flawless face like jasmine.
Zhao Jing almost cried in fear.
The men present, not to mention the girls, were all frightened.
Tomorrow Cheng patted Zhao Jing's back: "Xiao Jing, it's over."
Zhao Jing forced back the tears that almost came out of her eyes, but her face was pale and weak, and her fingers were trembling: "Oh..."
"We'll go there later..."
Zhao Jing's voice was weak: "I feel a little uncomfortable, so I'd better go home first."
Tomorrow Cheng: "..."
Tomorrow Cheng pressed his eyebrows, knowing that he would ask Shen Yanshi first.
He led her to stand up and go out. Zhao Jing's legs felt weak and she almost fell back down. Fortunately, he hugged her and walked out like a wandering spirit.
Just after she walked out of the theater, Zhao Jing's cell phone rang. She sluggishly pulled it out and saw "Nuan Nuan" on the caller ID.
She immediately threw the phone to Tomorrow Cheng: "Please pick it up for me. I'm quite scared when I see her now."
