Because one pulled the other, April's speed did not get faster, and even Gu Qingyan slowed down. The two men walked slowly forward side by side, looking like two swinging penguins from a distance.

During this period, the man said more than once that she walked too slowly, but he never let go of her hand. Just stop and go, and just walk a little bit of the scenery. Gu Qingyan stretched out his finger and pointed to a black spot in the distance, and said, "That's my kennel, I have two Alaska, I'll take it to you another day." ”

Looking at the glint of anticipation in his eyes, April couldn't bear to splash him with cold water, and casually responded with a hello. But in her heart, she thought that in a few days, when her wounds were healed, she would have to look for a new house.

When she went back, Gu Qingyan finally couldn't stand her turtle speed, and directly didn't allow her to refute and said loudly: "I'll carry you." ”

April opened his mouth, and just as he wanted to say something, the man took another step and said, "Don't refuse." ”

So, April silently shut up and let the other party carry her on her shoulder. Originally, when she looked at it from a distance, she felt that Gu Qingyan's figure was a little thin, but when she leaned on his shoulder, she found that his shoulders were very broad and his steps were very steady.

April carefully clinged to his shoulders, fearing that the force would strangle his neck. Since she was just holding his shoulders weakly, the center of gravity of her body fell on the lower half of her body, and the whole person couldn't stop sliding down. Gu Qingyan mentioned it several times to no avail, and finally found out that it was her reason, and he didn't know what expression to make.

"Use some strength in your hands, otherwise I won't be able to hold you." The man's words were a little helpless.

As soon as he said this, April blushed rarely, and slowly put his hands on his shoulders, and with some force, they were firmly against his shoulders. Gu Qingyan carried her like this, step by step, and slowly walked home.

A long time later, April recalled this day, and always felt so unreal, maybe the sun was too bright, or maybe the flowers were too charming, but what attracted her the most was the ripple marks in someone's eyes.

As soon as I stepped into the main house, the warmth on my face diluted the cold air on my body, and the pores of my body were dilated. Chen's mother greeted him, helped Gu Qingyan take off her coat, hung it in her arms very carefully, and whispered in his ear randomly: "Miss Xia is here." ”

"yes, I see." The man bowed slightly, glanced at April who was silently taking off his coat, and instructed lightly: "Go to the kitchen and cook two bowls of ginger soup to ward off the cold." ”

"Yes, sir." Chen's mother retreated.

Normally, at this time, he is either in the company or in the study, but today he doesn't want to deal with business very much. After sitting on the sofa for a while, I felt that I had nothing to do, so I casually took a magazine on the coffee table and turned a few pages boredly.

It's a fashion magazine that was shoehorned into him by his costume designer, Johnson. He is not overly particular about his taste in dress, it should be said that he does not like to spend his time on things that are not of interest to him. As for why he spent time with the quiet woman opposite, he attributed it to his pity for her.

You see, she sat there, and she didn't speak, and she was very dull and boring.

"Do you still watch movies?" Well, he has nothing to do now but find something to do.

"Okay."

"What movie do you want to watch?" He only watches classic movies, and if he really wants to watch romance movies, he may not be able to watch them.

"I can do it all."

Look, she's dull and boring, and she has to add another lack of opinion.

Gu Qingyan took the remote control in his hand, pressed it boringly, and finally chose a comedy with black humor. It's been a few years since this movie, but according to the habit of not watching movies in April, she definitely hasn't seen it.

At the beginning of the film, a series of director-maker names appear, and he glances at her slightly sideways. Well, even the person who can read the relevant subtitles at the beginning of the movie is so serious, and it is estimated that she is the only one.

Soon, Chen's mother brought two bowls of ginger soup with a tray, thanked April, held it in her hand, and just blew on the surface of the ginger soup, Xia Bai's figure appeared in her field of vision.

Xia Bai had a smile on her face, put a stack of delicately shaped blueberry cheesecakes in her hand in front of her, turned around and snuggled up to Gu Qingyan in her arms with another stack of cakes.

"When I came, I saw you walking from a distance in the car, and I didn't bother you, so I thought I'd come back and make you some cakes first, so that you could eat them when you came back." Xia Bai explained softly.

April glanced at her, put down the ginger soup in his hand, and picked up the plate of cake instead, and took a small bite.

Xia Bai's voice in his ears continued, "This is what I just learned, and I don't know if it's good or not." ”

"It's delicious." April took a sip, only to feel that the cream melted in the mouth, sweet but not greasy, and the fragrance of blueberries. As if she didn't feel that this sentence was enough to express her thoughts, she silently added: "This is the best cake I've ever eaten in my life." Of course, she had also eaten a cake that, although it was not a tenth of the taste of this cake, but in her heart nothing could replace it.

It's rare to hear April praise people, Xia Baixiao's flowers and branches trembled, his eyes swept away, and he leisurely skimmed to someone who was silent, "Qingyan, April said it was delicious, can you taste it too?" ”

"I don't like sweets." The man's eyebrows were lightly pursed, and he said lightly.

When Xia Bai heard this, his eyes darkened, and he reluctantly smiled: "Just take a bite, okay?" You can tell me what you like to eat, and I will make it for you later. ”

The man was silent for a long time, and said casually: "I'm not hungry, and I don't want to eat now." As soon as he finished speaking, he gently pushed Xia Bai away, got up and walked directly to the study, only to throw down the sentence "I still have some business to deal with" and disappeared at the door.

Xia Bai, who stayed in place, had a stiff smile on his face, and when the wind blew, it dispersed like a fog, and there was no trace.

"Xia Bai ......," April called her worriedly.

The woman came back to her senses, laughed again, raised her fork and forked a large piece of cake, which she put directly in her mouth. She chewed heavily, her cheeks bulging, and as she ate, she said, "I haven't tasted it before, it tastes really good." As she spoke, she looked at the stunned April and urged, "Look at what I'm doing, you can eat too." ”

April didn't move, and the cake in her hand seemed to get heavier, as heavy as her heart.

"Xia Bai, don't be sad, he just doesn't like cakes, you can make other delicious things for him to eat in the future. I just think your cake is delicious, and I love it. What she didn't say was that Gu Qingyan hated the cake very much, and she couldn't even smell it.

Some wounds have fallen on the heart, and the marks left behind may take a lifetime to heal.

The woman slowly stopped eating, and the cream on the cake got on her fingers and the corners of her mouth. A well-dressed beautiful woman, at this moment, suddenly felt a deep sadness. She didn't know what she had been insisting on it for.

Is it because she doesn't want to live her previous hard life again, so she tries her best to catch him, or is it because she still loves him?

"April."

"Huh?"

"I said I was jealous of you."

April put down the cake in her hand, sorted out the folds on the skirt, smiled a little helplessly, and asked rhetorically, "Xia Bai, what do I have to be jealous of?" I have no beauty, no family, no relatives, no lovers. I don't have the most important things in this world, so you're still jealous of me? ”

Xia Bai looked at the calm-looking woman opposite in a daze, and suddenly lost his speech.

Yes, she has a lot more than April, she has parents, although her father is still in prison; She looks good, and there has never been a shortage of suitors since she was a child; She has a cheerful personality and can quickly mingle with her surroundings. She is a princess, although she is in trouble, and there are princes who come to the rescue, but what is there in April, she only has herself.

"I never want anything that doesn't belong to me, I just want to survive. Although, I don't know what I'm living for. She spoke her thoughts in a deep voice, without the slightest sadness or joy on her face.

At that moment, Xia Bai suddenly had an impulse to tell her what he had been conjecturing all along. But reason stopped her impulsiveness, she couldn't speak, she couldn't speak, and if she did, she would lose her current qiē.
