She couldn't help but sigh, time passed really fast. She even remembered the simple cake she made perfunctorily for his birthday last year. In a flash, the year is coming to an end.

Jiang Guangguang couldn't help but look sideways at Cheng Rongjian, Cheng Rongjian probably noticed it, clenched her hand, smiled and reached out to pat her head.

There was no fracture, Jiang Guangguang's injury was healed quite quickly. Go up the mountain to the temple and live for a while, and when you come back, you can take something light. You can also take a bath by yourself, and you don't need Cheng Rongjian to do it for you.

Although she can move, Cheng Rongjian only allows her to move. Even simple chores are not allowed to be done.

He wouldn't let her do anything, but he wasn't at home all day. Taking advantage of his absence, Jiang Guangguang learned to weave scarves.

She is very neat at everything, but she is very clumsy when it comes to knitting scarves. It didn't look like it at first, so I had to go to my aunt for help.

Auntie was naturally happy to help, so she pointed out carefully. There is a gap between the ideal and the reality, Jiang Guangguang originally thought that he would definitely be able to weave beautifully, and he also chose difficult patterns. In the end, I couldn't weave it at all, so I had to honestly choose the simplest weave.

With an aunt behind to help, it was barely smooth sailing. As her scarf grew longer, the weather along the river began to get colder. I started to wrap myself in a thick bag when I went out, and it seems to be much colder this year than last year.

Cheng Rongjian's birthday has always been simple, probably because there are many things, and he didn't mention it. When he was busy returning home at night, he was stunned for a moment when he saw the longevity noodles made by Jiang Guangguang.

Last year's birthday was not a pleasant memory for Jiang Guangguang. He didn't expect her to remember.

Jiang Guangguang pretended to be casual and said, "Let's eat noodles first, it'll be mushy for a while." ”

She didn't mention that it was his birthday, and Cheng Rongjian didn't mention it, just like looking at the bowl of noodles, she also cooperated and pretended not to know anything and asked, "Why did you suddenly cook noodles?" ”

Jiang Guangguang obviously had already thought of what to say, and said, "Today, my aunt handed me to roll the dough, I made it myself, you can taste it." If you don't like to have dinner for a while. ”

This excuse is quite similar, the corners of Cheng Rongjian's mouth couldn't help but hook slightly, nodded, sat down at the table and began to eat noodles.

Probably because he was afraid that he would eat it, the noodles were indeed hand-rolled. It's just such a small bowl with a poached egg added. Cheng Rongjian quickly finished eating, and praised in a good way: "It's delicious." ”

Jiang Guangguang was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, sighed, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and then served the dishes with his aunt.

The dishes are also made by her, and she wears the apron that her aunt usually wears, and she gives birth to a bit of home warmth for no reason. Cheng Rongjian couldn't help but feel a little distracted.

The dishes are also very rich, probably made everything she can imagine, and a table is full. The corners of Cheng Rongjian's mouth hooked slightly. Today's events were originally a little irritable, but now they are quiet for no reason.

Jiang Guangguang wanted to get it, and invited Akai Anan and Abei to come over. didn't say anything at the dinner table, but changed it to her serving Cheng Rongjian. After eating and tidying up the table, Jiang Guangguang entered the kitchen, and the living room suddenly went out.

Cheng Rongjian didn't know her tricks, and she didn't move, just looked at the kitchen door. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Jiang Guangguang to walk out with a cake with candles.

Compared to last year's simple cake, this one is obviously much better. Jiang Guangguang baked several cakes before he succeeded in baking.

She obviously knew that Cheng Rongjian was cooperating with them, so she walked calmly in front of him, and then said softly, "Happy birthday." ”

Her delicate face was dyed with a warm glow in the candlelight, and it was incredibly beautiful. Aunt Anan and they had already hid out, and only the two of them were left in the room. Quiet and peaceful.

Cheng Rong suddenly remembered a lot of things, and couldn't help but feel a little in a trance. But he quickly came back to his senses, looked at the cake, smiled slightly, and said, "This time it was quite good." ”

Jiang Guangguang put the cake on the small table in front of him, and said quite narcissistically: "Of course, I don't look at who made it." ”

Cheng Rongjian looked at the cheesy happy birthday words on the cake that were a little crooked, and couldn't help laughing. Nodding his head, he said, "Hmm." ”

Jiang Guangguang didn't play poor, he touched his nose a little uncomfortably, and said, "Blow out the candle." ”

She wanted to say that she made a wish and blew out the candles, but it was a little naïve, so she omitted the wishing part.

Cheng Rongjian was quite cooperative and stood up. But he didn't blow out the candles immediately, a pair of deep and smiling eyes looked at Jiang Guangguang, tilted his head and thought about it, and said, "You come and make a wish." Make a wish for my birthday boy? ”

Jiang Guangguang didn't expect him to make a wish, but he was slightly stunned. After a while, he stepped forward, clasped his hands, and silently made a wish.

The expression on her face was pious and serious, and when she silently made a wish, she opened her eyes and was about to ask Cheng Rongjian to blow out the candle, and Cheng Rongjian took her into his arms.

For a split second, he leaned over and kissed her on the lips. She had drunk sweet soup, and there was still a hint of sweetness in her mouth. He sucked softly, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones.

Jiang Guangguang knew that Anan was waiting in the dark to cut the cake, and they would naturally see this scene. She originally planned to push Cheng Rongjian away, but in the end she didn't move, and her hand was gently placed on her waist.

Cheng Rongjian naturally wanted what she could think of, and he quickly let go of her. He stared at her in the candlelight for a while, and then pecked her lightly on the lips before blowing out the candle.

The intimacy of the two, Anan, they naturally didn't watch, and when they blew out the candles and turned on the light to call them over to eat the cake, they found that all the people had left.

Jiang Guangguang's face turned red all of a sudden, and he couldn't help but look at Cheng Rongjian. Cheng Rongjian was very calm, chuckled, and said, "Let's go, let's go, if you can't finish eating tonight, isn't there tomorrow?" Breakfast tomorrow morning. ”

He looked very serious, Jiang Guangguang was still a little uncomfortable, and reached out and touched his nose.

The dinner in the evening was rich, and they were quite full, and in the end, the two of them only ate a small piece of cake. A cake moves a corner.

Cheng Rongjian's face was quite thick-skinned, and seeing that Ming'er couldn't finish breakfast, he called Anan and asked them to come back and ask them to take them for supper.

It was cold, and although it was still early, the two did not go out again. I nested upstairs and watched a movie. Cheng Rongjian's breath fell to Jiang Guangguang's neck, he chuckled, and asked, "I have a birthday, you don't have anything to give me, huh?" ”

There was ambiguity in his tone, and the scorching breath he exhaled made Jiang Guangguang couldn't help but want to dodge. His hand clasped her waist tightly, and the meaning was self-evident.

Jiang Guangguang couldn't withstand his teasing, tilted his head far away, and stammered: "Yes, there is something for you." ”

"Oh, really?" Cheng Rongjian chuckled, but his hand still didn't let her go, but leaned tighter, and said with a smile: "What are you going to send?" ”

The ambiguity of the room, his smiling lips were about to fall. Jiang Guangguang reached out to remove his hand, blushing and muttering, "If you don't let go, how can I take it?" ”

She silently prepared a gift, Cheng Rongjian was a little interested, and ate tofu for a while before letting go of her hand.

Jiang Guangguang jumped out at once, her scarf was too ugly, and she couldn't handle it. After a long time, I took out the scarf.

The scarf is gray and the stitches are crooked. Obviously more crappy than the cake. She folded it neatly, pretended to be calm and handed it to Cheng Rongjian, and said, "That's it." ”

She said what she hoped he would like. This thing is destined to never see the light of day. When she watched the movie just now, she had been hesitant to take it out. Originally, he had already made up his mind not to take it out, but who knew that he was forced out in the end.

Cheng Rongjian opened it and looked at it, a smile appeared on his handsome face, probably to alleviate Jiang Guangguang's embarrassment, nodded and said with a smile: "It's pretty good." ”

Jiang Guangguang's face turned even redder, and he said hesitantly: "Why don't you put it first, and I will re-weave it after I have practiced it later." ”

Compared to what Zhong Xin knitted for her, she couldn't take it out at all. She is self-aware.

Cheng Rong smiled slightly, looked at her, and said, "It's good, why do you want to put it there?" After a slight pause, he beckoned to Jiang Guangguang and said, "Come here." ”

At this time, when he couldn't keep it in the past, Jiang Guangguang pinched his throat and said, "I'm a little thirsty, go down and pour some water." ”

She slipped away quickly, and without waiting for Cheng Rongjian to speak, she opened the door and went out.

Cheng Rongjian is not in a hurry at all, can he still run fifteen after running in the first year of junior high school? Waiting for Jiang Guangguang to come back, she was caught on the sofa.

Cheng Rongjian was extremely gentle, as if punishing Jiang Guangguang, and did not enter the topic for a long time. Jiang Guangguang bit his lip and didn't dare to make a sound. but he was deceived and defeated.

Cheng Rongjian was very patient, and lured Jiang Guangguang to say shameless words. It wasn't until the end that he entered with a dumb voice.

He has always been very gentle, and in the end, Jiang Guangguang has been separated from his soul. I only know that with his ups and downs. Hold on tightly to him.

After finishing the matter, Cheng Rongjian lightly imprinted a kiss on her eyebrows, smiled and said thank you.

Jiang Guangguang's skin was still crimson, and he buried himself in the quilt like an ostrich, and he didn't dare to look at Cheng Rongjian.

Cheng Rongjian reached out and brushed the bangs on her forehead for her, kissed her smooth forehead again, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Let's go back for the New Year this year." ”

There was a bit of pampering in his tone. Jiang Guangguang didn't move for a while, Cheng Rongjian and her fingers interlocked, and said in a low voice: "Guo Shu said, they miss you very much." If you worry about something, then it will pass quietly. ”

I have to say that he is very caring. Jiang Guangguang's body stiffened, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "No need, it's the same if you don't go back or not." ”

Her tone was light, and she closed her eyes after saying this. Apparently I don't want to talk about it anymore.

Cheng Rongjian reached out and patted her on the back without saying anything more. Jiang Guangguang was originally sleepy, but because of the topic mentioned by Cheng Rongjian, his brain cleared up.

The lights in the room had been turned off, and Jiang Guangguang opened his eyes and looked blankly at the ceiling. There is really no need to go back, Guo Shu has already said that they are doing well, and Uncle Huo can even fall out with the old mansion for her and move out alone, what else is she worried about?

Jiang Guangguang closed her eyes, there were originally many thoughts in her mind, she forced herself to suppress them all, closed her eyes again and fell asleep.

Jiang Guangguang got up the next day and received a call from Guo Shu, saying that he was coming over again and asked her if she was free. Last time, Cheng Rongjian said that he would invite him to dinner, but he went out for a while, and the meal was not invited in the end.

Jiang Guangguang said that he was free, so he said that he was going to invite him to dinner. Guo Shu on the other end of the phone smiled and said, "You're welcome, please don't need to eat." If you have time, I'll take you to meet someone. ”

yes, he said it last time. Jiang Guangguang paused for a moment, nodded and said yes. Then Guo Shu asked her to go to the hotel to find him.

Jiang Guangguang is still accompanied by Mo Sang when she goes out, and she told Cheng Rong to go to Guo Shu briefly. Cheng Rongjian didn't say anything, just asked the driver to send her over. and said that he would go over to her after dealing with the matter, and then invite Guo Shu to dinner.

Because Guo Shu mentioned taking her to meet people, Jiang Guangguang was a little uneasy. He answered the word yes and asked him to call her when he was done.

Jiang Guangguang went to Guo Shu's side, Guo Shu was already waiting in the lobby downstairs, and he was still carrying a bag of things. It was a specialty brought from Kyoto, although Guo Shu didn't mention it, but Jiang Guangguang also knew that it was prepared by Zhong Xin.

Guo Shu motioned for her to go to the parking lot with him, looked her up and down, and asked, "Is your hand okay?" ”

Jiang Guangguang nodded and said, "It's already fine." It's not a very serious injury. "Her physique is quite good, and she is better than ordinary people. She hesitated slightly, but still looked at Guo Shu and asked, "Who are you going to take me to?" ”

I don't know why, her heart is a little drumming.

Guo Shu smiled and said, "You'll know when you arrive." At this time, he was still selling Guanzi.

Jiang Guangguang didn't ask any more, was silent for a while, and asked, "Those children, how are they now?" ”

This place along the river is chaotic because I am worried that my children will not be safe. The children were eventually sent away. Those who did not contact their parents were sent to welfare homes in other places. She never inquired about it since.

Guo Shu glanced sideways at her, and said with a smile: "You should ask Zhou Lai this question." He was in charge of it. He was just joking, paused for a moment, and then added: "Some of them later contacted their parents, and only five children were left." I was involved in this matter, and I left them in a welfare home sponsored by Guo, and all expenses such as children's tuition fees in the future will be borne by Guo. If you're not worried about waiting for when you're free, you can go over and have a look. ”

Later, he was serious and thoughtful.

Jiang Guangguang nodded, she couldn't see through Guo Shu, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Why are you meddling in these things?" ”

Regardless of the background of the Guo family, he is just a businessman along the river. There's no need to get involved in this mess.

Guo Shu suddenly fell silent, and after a while, he smiled and said, "No, I just want to do what I can." After a slight pause, he continued: "The Guo family has been doing charity since a long time ago. It should have been proposed by my second uncle, and both my grandfather and my father agreed with it. Therefore, when encountering similar things, whether it is money or effort, within the power of the ability, it will be somewhat helpful, albeit insignificant. ”

His tone was somewhat desolate, with some different emotions. Jiang Guangguang nodded and didn't ask any more.

The two said that they had arrived at the underground parking lot, and Guo Shu first opened the car door for Jiang Guangguang, and then threw everything into the back seat.

After getting into the car and starting the car, Guo Shu glanced at Jiang Guangguang and asked, "Second Master Cheng has been very busy recently?" ”

Jiang Guangguang nodded and said, "It's quite busy." "After living at the temple for a while, he got busy, but he was busy and went home late.

Guo Shu was silent for a while, and after a while, he said with some effort: "Because of this incident, the above is going to play the real thing." It is expected that there will be a new response in the near future. It was only a matter of time before the river perished. ”

There was some depression in his tone, Jiang Guangguang was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look out the window. These days, it's too quiet. It turned out to be the eve of the storm.

She leaned back in the car seat for a long time and did not speak, she hated it when she first came to the river. But right now, emotions are mixed.

When she came here, she thought that all the people here were people who would never recover. But it's the same everywhere, there are good people and bad people.

It's like Lao Zhao Tou and them, just like Gou San, who is obviously greedy for money, but he also has his own principles and knows what to say and what not to say.

and Cheng Rongjian, she didn't even want to think about it. At this moment, she was so powerless, so dazed.

Speaking from Guo Shu's mouth, she suddenly realized that this day would be so close. And not as far away as she thought in her self-deception.

She didn't move, and Guo Shu didn't speak. There was silence in the car for a while. After a while, Jiang Guangguang lowered his head and asked, "Did the two little leaders who were captured recruit something?" ”

There was a little tremor in her voice, and she suddenly remembered Cheng Rongjian's closed casino that had not been opened again, he probably knew it a long time ago.

He said he would think about it later. However, he never mentioned that he had any way to deal with it. Jiang Guangguang's heart suddenly felt so depressed that it hurt badly.

Under the intense suppression, what countermeasures can he have? Whitewashing? By this time, it was already too late. Even if he wanted to go abroad at this time, he probably wouldn't be able to leave a long time ago.

Guo Shu shook his head and said, "It should have provoked some, but I don't know the specifics." But now the instructions from above are not just to break through from that side. ”

The means along the river are frightening, and the means above will not be able to go anywhere. Although they are afraid of retribution along the river, under the current pain, the only choice they can choose is to give in. What people can take care of is often only in front of them.

Jiang Guangguang didn't speak now, and after a while, Guo Shucai asked softly, "If you go back to Kyoto here?" ”

Jiang Guangguang's heart was very depressed, and her mind was also very chaotic, so she shook her head.

When this topic was raised, the atmosphere was very depressing. The rest of the day neither spoke again. The car drove all the way to the suburbs, and after driving out of the city for a long time, Jiang Guangguang came back to his senses and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

As she spoke, she looked out the window, and the fog here was a little large, and there was a white expanse on both sides.

Guo Shu laughed and said, "What, I'm afraid I'll sell you?" "He's easing the mood.

Jiang Guangguang shook his head and said, "I can't compare with you, and it's worthless to sell me." ”

Guo Shu looked at her and said with a smile: "Do you mean to let me sell myself?" ”

"Of course, you're worth more." Jiang Guangguang nodded seriously.

Guo Shu laughed out loud and said, "It makes sense, but do you think I look like such a stupid person?" ”

Jiang Guangguang leaned back in his chair lazily and said, "I'm not stupid, I'm just a bit like a stupid son in a landlord's house." ”

"Tsk, I really didn't see that your mouth is quite poisonous." Guo Shu sighed a few times, looked at the mountain road in front of him, but got to the point, and said: "Go to our warehouse here, it's a little far away, and you can almost get there after crossing this slope." ”

Jiang Guangguang nodded.

Guo Shu paused slightly, and then said, "The people we want to see are guarding the treasury over there." You've been injured and it looks scary, so you have to be prepared. ”

Jiang Guangguang nodded again, and his palms couldn't help but hold together. After a while, he let go and asked in a low voice, "Is it someone who has something to do with the past?" ”

Her voice was slightly trembling. Other than that, she couldn't think of a reason why Guo Shu brought her here.

Guo Shu's face was a little dignified, he glanced at her, nodded his head, and said in a low voice: "Don't expect too much that I will let people check, he went to the treasury in the year of his uncle's accident, and he was injured at that time, as for the rest, I guess." You shouldn't know what happened at the beginning, even if it's been a long time, he may not speak. ”
