Chapter 93: Neurological Disease!

  At night, Zheng Jie returned home. Her parents were watching TV in the living room. After greeting them, she went upstairs. She saw Zhang Zi Heng standing in front of her door with a very natural expression, intentionally or unintentionally looking at her. Zheng Jie smiled secretly and hummed a little tune as she slowly walked up to him, smiling: "What's wrong? Are you looking for me?"

  Zhang Ziheng coughed lightly and said, "Nothing, nothing. I was just bored and took a walk, didn't expect to end up here."

  "Oh, I see. Excuse me, I'm going back to my room." Zheng Jie said with a smile.

  Zhang Ziheng nodded, made way for half of his body, leaned against the door frame, one hand stroking his chin, and the other hand rubbing his neck back and forth, seemingly lost in thought. Zheng Jie suppressed a smile as she looked at him and said, "Hey, it's too cramped, can you make some more space?"

  "This place is still small? How big is it, how old are you? Take a look, you're so small, the space I'm giving up is also very small, which means that someone as small as you can definitely pass through such a small space, so I don't need to give in at all. You say, isn't that right?" Zhang Ziheng said.

  Looking at him now, Zheng Jie couldn't help but feel extremely happy. "I just realized today that you're actually quite eloquent."

  "Where is it, even if I have a good eloquence, I won't go to a high-end restaurant to eat steak. Even if I go, it's just me alone, what's the use?" Zhang Ziheng said with a nonchalant expression.

  "Hey, hey, this doesn't sound right. Are you implying something?" Zheng Jie laughed and said.

  "Who? What am I implying? Honestly, day after day, always talking nonsense."

  "Hehe, am I talking nonsense? Alright then, I'll ask you, what did those words of yours just now mean? I had steak today, weren't you referring to me?" Zheng Jie asked with a smile.

  "Huh? You? Haha, just kidding, what did I say about you? I was saying, this steak is... originally the meat is little, and it's expensive. Can't eat full, not to mention wasting money. So, eating steak is still..."

  "What exactly do you want to say? Don't beat around the bush anymore, are you jealous?" Zheng Jie smiled.

  "What? What vinegar did I eat? Haha, what vinegar did I eat? Where did I eat vinegar? Don't believe me, smell it, do you smell any vinegar in my mouth? Ha..."

  "You don't admit it? Alright, you won't regret it." Zheng Jie said.

  "Haha, regret? What's there to regret? Haha, you're really good at joking." Zhang Ziheng said with a carefree expression.

  Zheng Jie nodded, pushed him away, opened the door and walked into the room, but didn't close the door. After putting down her handbag, she took out her phone and started making a call. "Hello, Yu Xuan, I've thought about it, I accept your proposal, where do you think we should hold our wedding?"

  Standing at the door, Zhang Ziheng was stunned as soon as he heard this. Looking at Zheng Jie's expression, it seemed like she wasn't joking. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat. Zheng Jie also noticed his reaction and continued to say loudly: "Hmm, okay, no problem, I'll listen to you. Oh, haha, you miss me so quickly? How annoying! Ah, don't want to, don't want to anymore, okay okay, just one kiss is fine? Ah, don't want to, you're so annoying!"

  Watching Zheng Jie's hesitant appearance, Zhang Ziheng finally couldn't bear it anymore. He stormed into the room, stretched out his hand to grab the phone from Zheng Jie. However, Zheng Jie immediately saw through his thoughts and quickly turned around to dodge, not letting him snatch it.

  At a loss, Zhang Ziheng couldn't care about anything else anymore. In an instant, he pushed Zheng Jie onto the bed and started using brute force to grab her phone. "Give it to me, give it to me quickly."

  "Hey, what are you doing? You stinky rascal, what do you want to do? Why are you snatching my phone? Let go, let go quickly, if you don't let go I'll shout! Although Zheng Jie said this with her mouth, but from the cunning expression on her face, it can be seen that she is teasing Zhang Zi Heng."

  "If you have the ability, shout it out. I don't care about that much anymore." Zhang Ziheng said as he snatched the phone from Zheng Jie's hand and put it to his ear, saying: "Hello, Yu Xuan, it's me, I have something to say to you... uh? Hello, hello? Hello!" Not hearing any sound, Zhang Ziheng looked at it in confusion, only to discover that the phone hadn't even dialed out, and the keypad was still locked. It wasn't until then that Zhang Ziheng realized he had been played.

  "Hahaha, hehehaha." Zheng Jie was laughing so hard that her mouth couldn't close.

  It's embarrassing, it's really embarrassing. Zhang Ziheng's face is now completely red, he doesn't know what to do anymore. Looking at the phone in his hand, he gritted his teeth and put it back to his ear, pretending to be calm and saying: "Yuxuan, don't forget to call me when you get married, I'll go be your best man. Ah, no need to be polite, it's settled then, bye."

  Zheng Jie burst out laughing and said: "What? Have you discussed it with Yu Xuan already? Remember to come early next time."

  "That goes without saying, of course." Zhang Ziheng said.

  "Zheng Jie, you... what are you doing?" At this time, Zheng Jie's parents suddenly appeared at the door, looking puzzled.

  No wonder, at this time Zhang Ziheng was lying on Zheng Jie's body, and Zheng Jie still had a smiling face, looking quite happy. Oh no, forgot to close the door. Zhang Ziheng was startled, hurriedly got down from Zheng Jie's body, nervously said: "Uncle, Auntie, that... I and Zheng Jie..."

  "We're just practicing yoga." Zheng Jie hastily stood up and explained.

  "Practicing yoga? Is that really practicing yoga?" Zheng Jie's mother asked with a frown.

  "Of course there is, for two people. You just haven't seen it before." Zheng Jie chuckled. "Dad and mom, weren't you watching TV in the living room? Why did you suddenly come up?"

  "We heard you shouting and laughing in the room and thought something was wrong, so we came up to take a look, but unexpectedly..."

  "Uh... Ah-choo, Auntie, Uncle, I... I'll head back to my room first. I still have to get up early for work tomorrow." Zhang Ziheng said as he was about to leave.

  Zheng Chengyang frowned and said: "Isn't the company off tomorrow? What are you working for?"

  "Huh? What's going on, is it a holiday? Oh, right, right, it's a holiday. Haha, look at me, I'm all confused. It's getting late too, goodnight uncle and auntie." After saying that, Zhang Ziheng quickly ran back to his room.

  Zheng Chengyang and his wife exchanged a glance, closed the door, and then asked Zheng Jie: "Zheng Jie, what's going on?"

  "What's wrong? Hehe, Dad and Mom, what are you doing? Why are you staring at me like I'm a prisoner? I want to sleep too, go out." Zheng Jie laughed.

  Zheng Chengyang wanted to say something, but Zheng Jie's mother shook her head and signaled him to leave. Zheng Chengyang looked at his daughter again before turning around and walking out of the room. Zheng Jie's mother smiled and sat down beside Zheng Jie, saying: "Zheng Jie, be honest with mom, are you...?"

  "What's wrong? What's going on? Oh, mom, don't think nonsense, I and he...I and he are just..."

  "What's going on? You're still thinking about it, aren't you? That little thought of yours can't fool me!" Zheng Jie's mom said with a smile, gently pushing her forehead with her index finger.

  Her thoughts were seen through, Zheng Jie smiled awkwardly and said: "Oh dear, mom... look at you, I won't tell you anymore."

  "Hehe, silly girl, who would you tell about this kind of thing if not your mom? Ah, you've grown up and become a big girl, it's very normal to fall in love, there's nothing to be ashamed of. Your dad and I don't have high expectations, as long as you like him and he treats you well, that's all that matters. He's a good kid with good character, if the two of you can be together, your dad and I will also feel at ease." said Zheng Jie's mom with a smile.

  "Really? Mom, you're so good. But... but that wooden head is really infuriating, always timid and cowardly at critical moments, not like a man at all, even more feminine than women." Zheng Jie said with a pout.

  "Haha, this kid is originally introverted, how can you let him take the initiative? Either you suffer a loss and take the initiative yourself, isn't that just fine?"

  "That's not going to work, I'm a girl and everything about me is fine, how can you expect me to take the initiative? Anyway, I don't care, as long as he doesn't say anything to me first, I won't say anything to him either. If he has the ability, then let's just drag it out like this, who am I afraid of?" Zheng Jie said.

  Zheng Jie's mother smiled and said: "If you keep hesitating, someone else will snatch it away from you. By then, you'll regret it but it'll be too late."

  "Who? Who dares to rob, I'll see who dares to rob. Mom, don't worry, my not taking the initiative doesn't mean I'm stupid, as long as I see any signs of trouble, I'll come out and stop it immediately, absolutely won't let others take advantage." Zheng Jie said.

  "Alright, alright, do whatever you want. Oh, by the way, your dad's birthday is coming up in a few days, haven't you bought him a gift yet? It just so happens that tomorrow is a holiday, go out and buy one."

  "Oh, yeah, mom, what should I get for dad?" Zheng Jie asked with a smile.

  "I won't give you my opinion on this, think about it yourself. Alright, go to bed early and don't forget what mom told you."

  "Oh, I see." Zheng Jie said with a smile.

  At night, Zheng Jie lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, sometimes with a faint smile on her lips, and sometimes biting her lip, looking a bit embarrassed. In another room, Zhang Ziheng was doing the same, lying in bed, boredly staring at the ceiling. After a while, he suddenly sat up and took a flower from the bedside table, starting to pluck its petals, saying: "She likes me, she doesn't like me, she likes me, she doesn't..." When he finished plucking the flower, only one petal was left, "Does she like me? Hehe, she likes me, haha, she likes me!" Coughing, calming down a bit, actually, she likes me, then... Ah, hehe, it's really embarrassing, sleep, sleep. Saying that, Zhang Ziheng covered himself with the quilt and laughed in the blankets.

  It's fortunate that he is alone in this room; otherwise, others would have seen him and thought he was mentally ill.
