Agent Reborn: God-level Scholar

Chapter 681 They were very similar when they were young

Jiang Cheng finally got an appointment with Zheng Youran to spend the New Year's Eve together, mainly because he had nothing to do and went to the downstairs of Zheng's Group. After asking about jobs in several companies, he learned that Zheng Youran had turned down all the entertainment at night, but did not reply.

I am spending time with my family, who are still in the office at the moment.

He was worried that she would be bored sitting alone, so he shamelessly sent her a WeChat message.

Unexpectedly, she actually agreed to go with him.

In previous years, the riverside was the busiest on New Year's Eve in Jincheng, so after dinner, he invited her to hang out here. Unexpectedly, by such a coincidence, he met Gu Fengchen on a midsummer night.

From a distance, the four people's eyes met.

So Jiang Cheng simply indulged in Gu Fengchen's fireworks, and the four of them sat together to spend the New Year. When the New Year's bell rang for the first time, the four of them left their cold shoulders and came to a nearby cafe with ample heating.

.

Zheng Youran insisted on drinking an iced Americano because she was under great pressure from work all year round and needed Americano coffee to refresh herself, so she seemed addicted to the taste and couldn't get rid of it.

Jiang Cheng got three desserts from the front desk, gave one to Sheng Xia Ye, and pushed the other two desserts in front of Zheng Youran, "Eat something first to cushion your stomach. Drinking American style on an empty stomach is the most likely to cause abdominal pain."

As he spoke, he opened his palms, which contained a milk bag and a sugar bag, and placed them all in front of her.

"If you feel it's bitter, add a little more of this."

Zheng Youran glanced at him and said, "I don't feel bitter and I don't like sweets. Give the cake to Miss Sheng."

Jiang Cheng was unhappy, "Then what do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you."

He seems sincere.

Zheng Youran was silent for a moment, and finally put one of the desserts in front of her, sighing in compromise, "Just one."

Jiang Cheng was satisfied.

When he came back to his senses, he found that Gu Fengchen and Sheng Xiaye, who were sitting opposite, were looking at him with strange, scrutinizing eyes.

He looked confused, "What?"

Gu Fengchen's tone was lukewarm, "I've never seen Officer Jiang look like this. I thought I was wrong."

Sheng Xiaye also curled her lips, "Indeed, I never expected that Officer Jiang, who was so majestic when arresting the criminal, turned out to be a gentle and top-ten boyfriend in front of Miss Zheng."

Jiang Cheng smiled, his expression looking a little proud.

Zheng Youran looked at him deeply, but said nothing.

But just eating and drinking coffee later felt a little cold, so Zheng Youran asked: "I heard from Officer Jiang that I have known Mr. Gu since I was very young, but why didn't I see him more often in the past years?"

Midsummer Night blinked.

From the information she learned before, when life in Jincheng was not so developed in the past, there were four families, led by the Gu family, followed by the Zheng family, the Jiang family, and the Bai family.

Chu Xiao's business is indeed doing well, but it is still far behind these four companies.

Bai's father went abroad to develop, and the Jiang family is no longer involved in politics. Only the Gu and Zheng families are left doing business, and these two families have been neighbors since they were young. In a sense, Zheng Youran and Zheng Deyi follow Gu.

If the vassals have been close to each other since childhood, they can be regarded as childhood sweethearts.

If Chu Tianjiao wasn't the one causing the problem, then Zheng Dafei was. But from her understanding, Gu Fengchen had no feelings for the Zheng sisters, and their relationship was equivalent to that of strangers.

Gu Fengchen has a good relationship with Jiang Cheng. The two families should have moved around frequently when they were young. How come Zheng Youran has never seen Jiang Cheng?

"You may have seen it." Jiang Cheng clenched his hand into a fist and put it in front of his lips and coughed softly, "Although I am a few years older than Gu Fengchen, I was not very tall when I was a child. I was about the same height as him. The two families even always joked about me.

We are like twins, and he and I get along very well. We always stick together wherever we go, and we are more like brothers. Even the uncles and aunts in the neighborhood always mistake us for each other."

"Is there still such a thing?" Zheng Youran narrowed his eyes, recalling what he saw and heard when he was a child, and suddenly curved the corners of his lips, "If you put it this way, then maybe I have really seen you."

"But now we look nothing alike. Obviously, I am more mature." Jiang Cheng said seriously in front of Zheng Dafei.

She smiled but said nothing.

Sheng Xia Ye saw the smile on Jiang Cheng's lips and suddenly became distracted.

She looked at Jiang Cheng's face carefully. His appearance was that of a more heroic and tough guy, while Gu Fengchen's face was handsome and cold, like a noble prince from a comic book story, completely different from him.

I never thought they were so similar when they were kids.

When Gu Fengchen heard Jiang Cheng talk about his childhood stories, many memories came to mind and he was quite emotional.

The past events are still vivid in our minds, but now everyone has grown up and gone their separate ways.

Fortunately, his originally boring life suddenly became more exciting because of the appearance of Midsummer Night. The corners of his lips curved slightly, and he turned his head to look at Midsummer Night, but he found that the girl's eyes were as straight as nails.

On Jiang Cheng's face.

I especially remember that she stared at Jiang Cheng like this last time.

Suddenly, an unknown fire jumped up. He grabbed the paper towel on the table in front of him and put it on Jiang Cheng's face. Jiang Cheng was confused and reached out to take the paper towel away, but Gu Fengchen got angry and blocked him with the paper towel, preventing him from struggling.

"Gu Fengchen, are you poisonous?" Jiang Cheng put down the coffee in his hand and freed up his hands to fight him with all his strength. Gu Fengchen refused to let go. The scene looked weird and funny.

Shengxia Ye was helpless, "Gu Fengchen, what are you doing?" She stretched out her hand to pull his arm.

Zheng Youran was still sitting upright, just looking at the two people's eyes, as if he was looking at two fools.

…

Although the coffee shop is open 24 hours a day, the four of us didn't really stay there all night.

Jiang Cheng drove Zheng Youran to the downstairs of her apartment, walked around the front of the car, opened the door, and picked her up.

"Be careful on the way back."

After Zheng Youran finished speaking, he set off to go upstairs.

The night was sultry, and the dim light shone on her delicate oval face, making people mesmerized. Jiang Cheng looked at her deeply, and finally said in a deep voice: "Wait a minute, I have something to give you."

Zheng Youran was slightly stunned, watching Jiang Cheng approach the guard room, and said something to the community security guard. Then the security guard took out a bouquet of flowers from the small security booth and handed it to him.

Jiang Cheng quickly walked two steps in front of her, stood up straight, and handed her the bouquet of flowers in his hand.

Zheng Youran did not receive it immediately, but took a cursory glance at how many roses there were, and then stared at the tall man in front of him quietly through the dim night.

Jiang Cheng still stood as straight as a wire post, staring straight at Zheng Youran. He obviously had something to say, but the corners of his mouth twitched several times. He didn't know what the words were that made it so difficult for him to say them, so he stammered.

Not coming out.

"What do you want to say to me?"

Zheng Youran spoke first, her voice was very soft, and her words drifted in the cold wind.

Jiang Cheng pursed his lips and spoke with determination, "I..."

Seeing Zheng Youran's eyes, I subconsciously thought of what happened when I was studying.
