The next day, Lei An sent Renault to Zhou Jiyou's small apartment.

Before leaving, he handed her a knowing look, and the little girl's eyes were shining, gesticulating, and nodding secretly.

Lei An didn't enter the house, Zhou Jiyou sent him to the elevator room, and when he came back, he saw Renault walking around inside and outside the house, "What are you looking at?" ”

Renault shook his head quickly: "I didn't see anything, I just walked around." Turning around and stepping into the bathroom, she turned her head and smiled, "Sister, the house is very clean." ”

Zhou Jiyou felt that she was a little strange, but given that she had always been a babbling personality and was still a child, she didn't think deeply.

In the evening, the little girl refused Zhou Jiyou to cook personally to solve the food problem of the two, and said, "Sister, let's go out to eat." ”

Zhou Jiyou was refreshing: "Okay, I won't pick, you can take the New Year's money casually." ”

Renault's little face turned red: "I'm a child, you're so embarrassed." ”

Zhou Jiyou continued to tease her: "Sorry, why are you embarrassed." ”

Renault didn't look at her as a joke, and suddenly fell into a tangle.

"I'm already a miser when I'm a little bigger." Zhou Jiyou was overjoyed and patted her on the head, "Let's go, who expects you to have a treat." ”

After a false alarm, Renaud breathed a sigh of relief, indignant, and chased her to the entrance.

"Sister, you know how to bully me."

Zhou Jiyou glanced at her with a smile and didn't excuse himself.

The shoe cabinet was ajar, and she bent down to put the changed slippers neatly into one of the compartments, and Renault had a sharp eye to see a pair of large, men's cotton slippers inside.

"Ahh She opened her mouth and exclaimed.

Zhou Jiyou was slightly stunned: "What's wrong?" ”

Renault squatted down, reached in and took the pair of slippers in his hand, his eyes full of curiosity: "Sister, who are you putting such a big pair of slippers for here?" ”

Zhou Jiyou was indifferent: "To your father." ”

"Does my dad come over often?" She crouched down in front of the cabinet door and looked up at her.

"Your dad is busy with work, so he only comes here once in a while." Truth.

The men's slippers were originally intended for Ryan, but he was so busy that the number of times he came to see her was almost negligible, and over time, it became someone's exclusive use.

Renault already has a detective mentality, which is not easy to dismiss.

She pointed to the flattened heel of the slipper, and looked suspicious: "But ......" came to her mouth, as if she didn't know how to describe it, and she was a little stuck.

Zhou Jiyou snatched it and stuffed it into the cabinet casually, "Okay, don't do it." Aren't you shouting hungry, do you still want to eat? ”

"Eat, eat, eat!" Afraid that she would regret it, Renault scurried to his feet, passed her, and jumped forward to open the door.

When Zhou Jiyou closed the door, his eyes looked at the shoe cabinet through the crack in the door, and suddenly remembered that he should say hello to Shen Feibai, and don't come over for the time being recently.

There was only one bed in the apartment, and the next night she was reading in the study, and when she returned to the bedroom, Reynolds had fallen asleep.

She slept in an unhonest position, the quilt was sandwiched between her legs, her entire back was exposed, the hem of her pajamas slipped out of the waistband of her pants, and she was crumpled and wrapped around her body, and a small piece of white jade-like skin was exposed.

Worried about waking her up, Zhou Jiyou moved as gently as possible.

After tidying up the quilt and tucking all corners, she walked out of the bedroom and brought the door, went back to the study, turned on the computer to search for "Today's Focus", and took the time to look at the latest issue that she had missed.

She wondered if there would be another person in the world who felt the same way as her—witnessing a man's growth was like making a long documentary, her eyes were in charge of the camera, and it would be a pity to miss even a shot; Her heart is in charge of editing, leaving every moment that moves her the most.

Seeing halfway, the phone vibrates, and it's a text message.

[I'm outside the door, is it convenient?] 】

She immediately turned off the video and walked out, there was a three- or four-meter-long corridor between the apartment door and the fire door, she opened the door, saw him leaning down against the wall bar on the right, heard the movement, and turned his head to look.

She froze for a moment, then took the keys from the shelf above the shoe cabinet and pocketed them, changed her shoes, took her down jacket, and closed the door with her backhand.

Walking forward, she raised her eyes and stared at him: "Didn't you say that you should not come?" ”

"Tomorrow in Gansu," he responded.

"Oh, so what?" She tilted her head, a pale and tasteless expression.

Shen Feibai let out a helpless sigh, took half a step, and pressed his right hand on the back of her head, buckling her into his arms.

"I want to see you before I go." That's his "so".

Zhou Jiyou was satisfied, and if she had to ask him further to pry his mouth open, she didn't mind bothering to ask again.

She put her arm around his shoulder, "Come with me downstairs." ”

He paused, put it in her ear and said, "It's windy outside." ”

Zhou Jiyou was very bad, she put her hand into his warm neckline and said, "You're here." ”

Her hands were not cold, he stepped back, aimed the zipper of her down jacket at random, pulled it from the bottom to the top, and asked seemingly unintentionally, "Who is inside, I can't see it?" ”

She also wondered why he didn't ask for the past two days, but now not only did people come, but she couldn't hold back her words, so she pursed her lips so that she wouldn't laugh.

"You really can't see it." She said.

The lights in the corridor were dim yellow, and Shen Feibai's eyes were also dim.

Zhou Jiyou's eyes flashed, and he smiled: "She's asleep, I really can't see her." ”

was teased by her like this.

Shen Feibai's mood was taken around by her, and she returned to the previous question: "Who is it, have I seen it?" ”

Zhou Jiyou thought about it and guessed: "I should have seen it." ”

Shen Feibai began to lose control of her thinking. He took her by the hand and pushed open the fire door with one hand, allowing her to pass first.

Zhou Jiyou looked back at him: "You don't ask?" ”

"When you want to say it, you will say it."

She grinned: "And what if I don't want to say it all the time?" ”

He didn't pause, his eyes looked at her: "Will you?" ”

It seems that she will not.

Zhou Jiyou was a little choked, and there was a strange feeling that she couldn't describe, she turned her head back and looked ahead: "You're right, I won't." ”

Shen Feibai walked behind her, smiling slowly.

As he said, the wind was strong. The north wind howled like ice blades. Walking and walking, the frosty winter night gradually drifted snow seeds.

Shen Feibai helped her put on the hood of the down jacket.

Zhou Jiyou pointed to the cake shop that was still open on the side of the road and said, "Accompany me in and buy breakfast tomorrow." ”

She went around the glass cabinet to choose Renault's cute desserts, thought of anything, didn't look at him, held a plastic clip in her hand, took out a piece of cherry cheesecake, and asked, "When you go back for the New Year, has Old Man Shen's attitude towards you changed?" ”

Shen Feibai didn't speak, his eyes stared at her side face quietly.

She placed the cheesecake in a tray covered with tissue paper and tilted her head to meet him: "I don't mean anything else, just ask." ”

"There is no change, it is still cold."

He didn't sue her, Shen Guoan asked him to go to the study to talk once, and he asked him to go back to the group to do things, but he didn't agree. According to Shen Guoan's outrage that day, the relationship between them has almost reached the brink of irreconcilability.

"Oh." Zhou Jiyou moved his steps, opened another glass plate next to him, and the plastic clip reached in, "What do you think?" ”

The tone is natural, as if it is a casual question.

But Shen Feibai knew very well that every word she said was because she really cared about it.

"Just think I'm an ungrateful person, I don't have any feelings." His voice was calm, and his tone was like a straight line.

Zhou Jiyou just picked up a piece of pineapple bun, and as soon as his hand loosened, the clip also loosened, and the pineapple bun fell on the edge of the plate in the display case.

She had to turn her head to look at him again: "Shen Feibai, it's wrong for you to do this. "She's very strict.

The two clerks standing at the counter were muttering and chatting, glancing at them from time to time.

Zhou Jiyou pinched one end of the tray with one hand, and held the movable end of the plastic clip with the other hand, and turned his body all sideways to face him.

"I never thought I was ungrateful, and neither should you."

She spoke slowly, as if to admonish him, as if to comfort him.

"If I had a choice, I would rather not have this so-called adoption."

She thought of Jiang Ruhui, and remembered that over the years, she had torn up all her illusions about her mother.

thought that the loss of her father, at least she still had her mother, but in the end, it was just a whimsical when she was young.

Subconsciously, she always had an almost cold conjecture that her mother Jiang Ruhui took the initiative to take her to the Shen family back then, it must not be because she loved her, just like Shen Guoan took the initiative to raise the Shen Feibai brothers and sisters who were not related to her, and it must not be out of pity.

In the former, no clues have yet emerged; Latter......

That night at the CCTV Tower, he said: What is your definition of a 'good life'? As long as you have money and status, you are willing to be a pawn to be used by others?

She was shocked and wondered, how could he know?

But she didn't say a word at the time, and even if she suddenly remembered it now, she didn't want to mention it.

The last time she didn't ask, it was because she was looking ahead; She didn't ask this time because she wanted him to look forward as well.

Only by throwing off the shackles can we save ourselves and be freed.

Shen Feibai had been silent before, and after she said "I'd rather not", she immediately answered, and he said, "I want to." ”

The two clear and crisp words smashed Zhou Jiyou's head into a daze.

However, the next sentence made her come back to her senses all of a sudden.

"You have to ask for it too." It was rare for him to order her in a forced and domineering tone.

Zhou Jiyou remained silent, her heart beating suddenly, she seemed to be able to guess what he wanted to express, but she just wanted to use her brain to go deeper, but she suddenly gave up on her own - she didn't rely on guessing, she wanted him to express it himself.

She waited patiently, her eyes were calm, and she wanted to write in her eyes.

Shen Feibai read the expectation in her eyes, her expression was calm and focused, she was silent, and added the sentence she wanted to hear: "We don't want it, how can we meet?" ”

They don't want it, how can they meet?

In the short seconds that followed, Zhou Jiyou quickly asked himself a question: If you had a choice, would you like to meet him?

The answer is so yes.

Wish.

But where love is loved, all the old times related to him have become soft.
