Chapter 899 Secret

This couple is really passionate. They beckoned Zhen Fan and Miles to go in. Miles Simon entered the room and introduced to the old couple: "Hi, uh, sorry to bother you. My name is Miles Simon. This is... my teacher, Mr. Fan Zhen. "

"Disturb us? Who cares about this, we haven't had a visitor for many years!" The old woman smiled and said to Miles Simon, "Please come in, seeing you in such a mess, I must have not eaten dinner. By the way...you are Zhen? Are you a teacher?"

"Actually... I'm a doctor. Of course I'm also his teacher!" Zhen Fan couldn't help laughing, and reached out to shake the old woman's hand, "You can call me Doctor Zhen, but of course it's better to call me Zhen."

"I'm very glad that you are here to accompany us as guests!" The old woman hurriedly invited Zhen Fan and the two to come in, "My craftsmanship is very good, especially the pork chops, if you are patient, I will prepare them for you right away. Alright, come and sit down, hey... old man... Ben, come here and chat with the two boys. I'll go make coffee first." She turned her head and said to the old man who followed behind.

"Hello, boys, you can teach me Ben, as my old lady called me just now. You can call her Shasta too. We have lived here for over fifty years, and when we were young, we had some guests Come and visit us, back then... Shasta was the most beautiful woman in town." Ben came and sat on the old sofa, talking to Zhen Fan and Miles. The old man is also very enthusiastic.

"Here's the coffee, here's for you. Ben, honey, do it yourself. I've got to make dinner!" Shasta came over laughing, then stroked Ben's hair and wiped his hands, Smiling at Zhen Fan and Miles, he walked into the kitchen, "Wait a minute, kids!"

"Yes. I have caused you trouble!" Feeling sorry, Miles stood up and said to Shasta.

"Forget it, she likes it. It's like we haven't had guests in over ten years!" Ben smiled and waved Miles to sit down. "You are the first guests in over ten years, except of course... except for those who knocked on the door for water or asked, and... except for the neighbors who tried to go over my fence and cut down the trees on the front lawn .They don't like old men. Especially ones like us."

"Like you? Aren't you enthusiastic? God... these people must have taken the wrong medicine!" Miles shrugged his shoulders involuntarily. Some puzzled and said, "You are one of the best people I have ever met. You must know that before this, we asked many people, and they were not willing to let us in. Only you...you are good people! Ben, Really good man!" Miles said loudly with some injustice.

"Well, that's what we thought too. But... it always felt like we didn't fit in with the people in the town, if... we hadn't lived here for years. We might move. If... we were young, we would Get out of here and find a place that makes us feel very warm!" Ben smiled,

"I went to prepare the coffee myself, Shasta always treats me like this, let me do everything, why... I want to marry a wife who does everything by myself? Aha" he typed a haha ​​and then left.

"It's hard to imagine why people in this town are so selfish?" Miles shrugged his shoulders at Zhen Fan, "I really don't understand why no one wants to associate with such a good couple. Could it be ...Is it because those people are very selfish and not generous?"

"Don't jump to conclusions, Miles, we will always be confused by some remarks or illusions we see. Maybe we will find some clues, but it's not now, it's not time to draw conclusions. But... I look at The relationship between the couple is indeed a bit abnormal, they must have encountered something." Zhen Fan looked at Miles and smiled, "We might as well stay, we will always know something."

"Well, I hope so. But... I still feel sorry for the old couple." Miles said, taking a breath, and saw Ben walking over with a cup of coffee.

"This is the only Nanshan coffee I have left, don't miss it!" He sat on his seat, raised the cup to Zhen Fan and Miles, took a sip, and put it down , looked at Miles and laughed, "You must be very strange, why people like us have no friends, are you?"

"Yes, I did think so!" Miles spread his hands, and said what he was thinking honestly, "You...you are very friendly, enthusiastic, and even kind, why have you been so friendly for more than ten years? No friends? I really don't understand. And... how can you bear such an environment?"

"There's nothing unbearable." Ben smiled, "Well, I can tell you why, but... I'm not sure if you'll want to leave immediately, so... let's talk about it after dinner , this matter does have something to do with us, or maybe it is our own reason!"

"This makes me even more curious!" Zhen Fan spread his hands and smiled, "I feel that your room is a bit cold, and it's not like the general cold weather, but... a feeling. And ...The weather is relatively hot now, but your house is so cool, I didn't see that you have air conditioning, and a nearby lake is far away from you, there is no geographical reason at all..."

"You feel it?" Ben smiled, but this smile was a bit bitter, not as warm and relaxed as before, but he still smiled, "Yes, your feeling is very correct. This is also the neighbor One of the reasons for not coming, but... there is a reason, why is it like this..."

"Okay, guests... dinner is ready!" At this time Shasta's voice came from the dining room, she walked into the living room, wiped her hands on the apron, and said with a smile, "You can try Taste the dinner I made, come here, guests, don't be reserved." He said and shook his head at Zhen Fan and Miles.

"Thank you very much, Shasta, you are one of the nicest people I have ever met, can I hear your stories after dinner? You seem like people with stories and... I promise, I listen After finishing, I will give you a gift, as for what it is, please allow me to keep it a secret!" Zhen Fan said to Shasta with a smile.

"Gifts? No, no, no, Dr. Zhen, we don't need any gifts. It's an honor for you to eat the dinner I cooked here. Come here, boys, sit down and taste my pork chops smell!" Shasta laughed when he heard Zhen Fan's words, and waved towards them.

"Okay, let's go, Miles, I feel like I'm fascinated by the aroma, and I can't wait!" Zhen Fan said, shaking his head towards Miles, and Miles quickly followed Zhen Fan. , sat down in the restaurant. The pork chop is really well done, the color is very good, and the taste is very good.

During dinner, the old couple didn’t talk. They lowered their heads and ate in silence. After eating, Shasta went to clear the table. Ben, Zhen Fan and Miles went to the living room to talk. Ben made three more glasses Coffee came, and the three of them chatted while having coffee.

"Ben, there is something I have to tell you." Zhen Fan suddenly looked at Ben, and then said with a serious face, "I think there is something wrong with your house."

"I can see it too!" Miles said to Zhen Fan, "It feels like there is something in it, in fact... Maybe someone's soul exists here, this is my feeling, but it doesn't seem to be in the room , it's out on the lawn at the back of the house. Maybe we can help you!" His last words were addressed to Ben.

"No, no, no, you don't understand anything, this place is very good, I don't need your help!" Ben's face suddenly became a little ugly, his voice was loud, and he was a little panicked. The coffee was spilled on his hands, but he didn't know it.

"Relax, relax, Ben, you are a good person, I know you must have some embarrassing things to say, we can be together because this is what God destined us to have, tell us, maybe we can help you. You know , There is only one chance, since we can perceive the abnormality here, I believe we can help you deal with this matter. Believe us, we are all good people!" Zhen Fan looked at the old man calmly.

Ben slowly calmed down, but he still shook his head firmly and said: "No, no, I don't need help. If you want to stay here for one night, then you don't want to talk about this matter anymore .If you want to leave, then... you will find the exit door, right there!" He pointed to the exit door.

The meaning is obvious, either you shut up, stay here for one night, and leave tomorrow, or leave now as soon as possible, so as not to cause any trouble. Seeing Ben's stubborn opinion, Zhen Fan could only shrug his shoulders, and said with a smile: "Well, Ben, since you don't want to say it, we won't ask about it anymore, well, we decided to stay and don't talk about it anymore. Inquire about it until we leave."

"It's better, boys. It's not that I've neglected the guests. It's really... this is a private matter between Shasta and I. We're used to it, so... it's a kind of happiness to stay like this here." Ben's His mood gradually calmed down, and he smiled wryly at Zhen Fan, "Maybe this is the reason why those neighbors and friends gradually distanced themselves from me. My temper is just so weird!"

"Maybe, I think when you were young, you must have a good temper and a warm-hearted person. You are also now!" Zhen Fan smiled and nodded at him, "Okay, which room are we in? I saw You have three rooms here." (To be continued...)
