Chapter 54: Will You Marry Me?
"What's wrong with Mr. Ji today?" While eating, Jiang Yu couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.
She always felt that Ji Cheng was weird, but she didn't know why, she thought he would definitely tell Ji Chuan, wouldn't they go to the study to talk together?
Ji Chuan scooped up a mouthful of blood glutinous rice with a spoon and put it in his mouth to chew carefully, "There are some problems with the company's finances. ”
"So, does he need your help?" Jiang Yu asked again, what kind of CFO was he before.
"Well, yes, he needs my wisdom. Ji Chuan smiled and replied unashamedly.
"I'm just now realizing you're quite narcissistic. Jiang Yu glanced at him, and Fu'er sighed again, "The relationship between your two brothers is really good, why do you always play brothers in those TV series, and you fight for me?"
Ji Chuan took a sip of soup, and suddenly thought that Ji Cheng had turned back after leaving his room, he looked into his eyes and asked, "Ji Chuan, do you hate me?"
He didn't answer his question head-on at that time, but said, "If there was no Ji Cheng in this world, Ji Chuan would not exist." ”
The two of them, who is the shadow of whom?
…
"Ji Chuan!"
“…… Huh?"
"Why are you distracted?" She was talking to him just now, and Ji Chuan suddenly deserted, his thoughts were like the gray cat outside the window, and he ran away in the blink of an eye.
"I'm sorry. Ji Chuan said apologetically, restrained his scattered thoughts for a while, and then said calmly, "When I was in the welfare home, it was Ji Chuan who chose me, so that I could follow them to the United States." ”
Jiang Yu was a little surprised.
"Surprisingly, it was he who chose me, not my adoptive parents. At that time, they actually chose a girl. Ji Chuan slowly recalled the scene at that time.
"In other words, if it weren't for Ji Cheng, you wouldn't know where you are now. Jiang Yu said.
"Yes. I don't know if I have become a mentally handicapped in the eyes of others, or I have become a wisp of wandering soul in Pujiang. Ji Chuan finished eating the rice and scooped a bowl of dried scallops and bamboo sunflower chicken soup.
The door of memories slowly opened, and the old iron door was already rusty and creaking, bronze.
At that time, he had just sneaked back from Furushima Park.
A few days ago, he had a high fever because he was having fun in the rain, and when he woke up, he couldn't remember what had happened before.
As soon as you close your eyes, there are large patches of red. The red color is bright and eye-catching.
He couldn't remember the name of his friend, perhaps because he never had a partner. All he knew was that he had a beloved comic book, and the person who gave it to him was called Jiang Yu. The teacher called him Ogawa, and he was a mentally abnormal freak.
He didn't know anything but that.
It was a beautiful day, and he hid in the corner alone, as usual, and took the red bricks he treasured under his pillow, wrote his favorite numbers on the concrete floor, and did some numerical problems about the surrounding scenery.
For example, the welfare home has three swing racks, a slide, four small classrooms, twelve small wooden horses, and eight twisting cars.
There were iron trees with countless branches and leaves in four large pots, and a total of sixteen flowers and eight flower bones in ten small pots.
He was lying on the ground, writing and writing, when suddenly he saw a dark shadow on the ground, and his light was taken away.
He looked up and saw a proud little prince, but his voice was gentle and kind, "I heard that your name is Ji Chuan, right?"
"Yes. He finished answering and continued to work on his math problem.
Later, while eating, he noticed two strange foreigners watching him.
Finally, he stepped on a plane to the United States.
After adapting to a period of life in the United States, he began to learn English systematically, and in the process, Ji Chuan's talent slowly revealed, and his memory path almost died to an amazing stage of forgetting, so learning a new language was a breeze for him.
After completing his studies, his parents decided to send Ji Chuan to a special school, but Ji Cheng tried his best to stop him at that time, and he advocated that Ji Chuan should go to an ordinary school and let him study with those normal children.
Because Ji Chuan has no other special symptoms except for the defects in dealing with people and things.
He said he hoped he would fit in with the crowd and live the life of a normal boy.
…
“… How are you doing at school?" Jiang Yu keenly caught the sadness that flashed in Ji Chuan's eyes when he mentioned the past.
"Of course not.
At that time, I often stood alone on the playground and stared at the sky. I was 12 years old at the time, and I was already very aware of the difference between myself and others. I can't tell you how different methods are, but I know they're different.
I can't understand their behavior, their way of thinking. They scared and confused me, like puzzles I couldn't solve, and it often upset me. In the past, I used to think they were stupid, but later I realized that it was me who was stupid, and I often did wrong things.
So I was always alone, and when I ate, I was left out of their little dining table, and I often stood alone in the corner and ate. I was always the last to be picked when the game was divided into groups, and I often had to finish it with the teacher. When they throw some parties, I never get invited.
At first, they were polite to me, but later they could just point at me and call me 'stupid' and 'crazy'.
I remember one time, two girls deliberately tripped over me when I was passing by, and I fell directly to the ground, and my knees were swollen. The next day, they came to apologize to me, and complimented me on my good looks, and wanted to be friends with me.
As a token of my previous apology and my current sincerity, they sent me a jar of biscuits. I was so happy that I opened the cookie jar and ate it on the spot.
As I put the cookie in my mouth and bit it down, I suddenly realized that I had no trouble opening the jar, it had obviously already been opened. It was only too late to realize that I was choking on snot and tears, and the original cream in the cookies was replaced with mustard, and there were pepper seeds and the corpses of small bugs in them.
They called me a dirty ghost, a little sick bird in East Asia, and said I had ridiculous hamburger disease, sparrow disease, and asparagus disease. They don't make friends with a mentally retarded person who has mental problems.
I went to the teacher and asked her to get justice for me, and to punish the two girls for their pranks, but the teacher ignored me, a skinny yellow-skinned monkey. ”
From beginning to end, Ji Chuan's expression did not change very much.
His tone is soft, and his narrative is flat and straightforward, as if he is telling a story that he doesn't want to do at all.
In this story, he is an outsider, not an eyewitness.
Jiang Yu listened to his story, and the food in front of him already tasted like chewing wax, and the taste of the dried scallop and bamboo chicken soup seemed to have changed to mustard, and it was still very spicy, and there was the rancid smell of insect corpses in it.
She had just taken a sip and put it down heavily.
Ji Chuan noticed her movements, "I'm sorry, did I affect your appetite?"
"It's not. "He is beautiful and delicious, how can it affect her appetite.
"Okay, I'm not going to talk about it. He picked up the bowl again.
"That's it?" Jiang Yu wanted to hear some more of his story.
"That's all. Ji Chuan said.
"Didn't anything happen after that?" Jiang Yu asked.
"Of course not. After Ji Chuan finished speaking, he successfully saw Jiang Yu's eyes shining, "In the end, the hero of the story found the only girl he loved, and they lived happily together." ”
The sudden confession caught Jiang Yu off guard, and she hadn't recovered from the miserable childhood just now.
"What kind of expression is this, are you not satisfied with this ending?" Ji Chuan asked amusedly.
"Not really. Jiang Yu said.
"You've already sent me your head. Although I have been educated for many years, I also know..."Ji Chuan took her bowl, poured the cold soup into his own bowl, and refilled the bowl for her, "In ancient China, there was a saying that married couples were unswervingly in love. ”
Husband and wife...
The first time he heard him say these two words, Jiang Yu felt a little strange.
"Jiang Yu, if you send me your head, are you willing to marry me?" he gently placed the bowl in front of her.
"I ......" Jiang Yu can say, the atmosphere was so good at that time, did she just take scissors and stab her hair with a moment of brain fever?
After sobering up, she really regretted seeing a large patch of her uneven hair.
Impulsiveness is not only the devil, but also makes a person bald.
Ji Chuan's burning gaze kept staring at her tightly, unwilling to let go for a minute or a second.
What to do?
He's... Are you proposing to him?
“… We've only been together for a short time, isn't it too early to get married?" she replied with a shudder, carefully observing his expression.
Ji Chuan drank the cold and hot in the bowl, then leaned back in the chair and hid both hands under the table.
Where Jiang Yu couldn't see, those two fists slowly clenched.
Ji Chuan that Jiang Yu saw was still smiling lightly, looking like the Zhilan jade tree was as warm as jade.
His tone was gentle, and his eyes were gentle, like the sunshine in March, "Jiang Yu, I didn't mean that." I just want to ask, do you want to? Just tell me yes or no. I wanted an answer to put me at ease. ”
Doesn't that mean that?
That's exactly what it means!
It's just that he probably isn't in a hurry to get married at the moment, he just wants to book her first?
"I'm ......" she hesitated again, her mind a mess like a tangled headphone cable she had found by chance in a drawer.
"Yes or no. Ji Chuan repeated.
Jiang Yu also followed Ji Chuan's example, and drank all the soup he had served her in the bowl just now, "Yes!"
She's not the kind of person who struggles.
Yes yes, no yes no.
No matter what happens, at present, she is indeed willing to marry Ji Chuan.
"Great, Jiang Yu. That's the best answer I've ever heard. His joy was undisguised, and he dissected all his hot heart before her eyes.
In this world, no one can see Ji Chuan's heart, except Jiang Yu.
They should have been integrated a long time ago, and they were originally integrated.
It is said that a woman is a man's second rib, but for Ji Chuan, Jiang Yu is not her rib, but his life and soul.
