When he got home, Jenson took a shower, changed into plain sports casual loungewear, dried his wet hair, poured a glass of boiling water on the coffee table, and sat down on the beige sofa.

He put down his towel, picked up the architecture book he had bought at the Three Days Bookstore today, and prepared to flip through it, and threw another novel "How Good You Would Be If You Knew Me" on the small square table with a pen holder, which contained a few pencils and some paintbrushes, and under the small square table were boxes of A4 paper.

Usually, whenever he thinks of some architectural inspiration, Jenson will quickly take out paper and pencil and start drawing and revising.

Looking at the newly bought architectural books today, Jensen cut out some excellent decoration design works and cases in it, and at the same time took out the [decoration book] that he had sorted out for many years from the study, pasted the cut materials into the document, and marked and explained: where is the attraction of this case, what are the deficiencies and improvements...

This is his professional habit as a senior design engineer.

······

In a flash, the time is close to 19 o'clock, and it is time to prepare a simple and nutritious dinner for yourself.

Today is Valentine's Day, and although it is Valentine's Day without Valentine, the sense of ritual is still there, so Jenson plans to fry a steak by himself, pair it with red wine, and enjoy it alone!

The sound of sizzling oil sounded in the kitchen, and Jenson methodically turned over the steak, pressing and pressing it with a clip from time to time, pressing and pressing, so that the blood water flowed out and fried and evaporated, and so on repeatedly, the aroma of the steak became more and more intense.

After more than 30 minutes, a plate of delicate steak was served, the steak was cooked and tender but not burnt, with a double serving of black pepper that tasted just right, red cherry tomatoes, green broccoli petals, and an irregular round omelette, this steak was also considered a perfect score.

Outside the window, the lights are shining, and the nightlife of the city people is about to begin.

For Jenson, he didn't feel like a city man, the nightlife was too far away for him, he didn't like the noisy places at all, and if it weren't for work, life in the countryside in the suburbs would have been more preferable to him...

Therefore, such a quiet and leisurely night of solitary leisure and enjoying food, Jenson likes it.

Yes, for a man like Jensen, who has been single for a long time, living alone is enough time for him to learn various life skills on his own, and a steak is nothing!

In this way, Jensen quietly ate his own dinner alone, living a lonely Valentine's Day when others were partying.

Jingle Bell Bell ~ Ding Bell Bell Bell ~ Ding Bell Bell Bell

The phone rang, and his college classmate and colleague Luo Cheng called, in a cheerful tone:

"Sen, why are you spending Valentine's Day at home today?"

"Well, why don't you go romantically with your sister-in-law and come to send me condolences?"

"Didn't I remember you and bring you good things?"

On the other end of the phone, Luo Cheng paused:

"Remember the courtyard villa you bought in Shanhai District before, just the real estate project of your sister-in-law and her best friend Gao Lilan's company, didn't I take you to buy it at that time."

"Well, it's been more than 6 years, and I almost forgot that I still have a country house, what's wrong?"

"Hey, it's really not a country house, let me tell you, this is really going to be a villa, and it's the only living villa area..."

"Let me tell you, your sister-in-law's company participated in the Luozhou City Urban Planning Conference, and the inside information revealed that Luozhou City will not only focus on the development of Beihai District, but also build a new rural living area in Shanhai District in the future, and then there will be a lot of low-level buildings around it, and the villa group you originally bought, there will be no more single-family living areas with courtyards, do you say you have earned it?"

"I know that the focus is on the development of the Beihai District, but the Shanhai District is so remote that it will also be developed?"

"Really, the news is reliable..."

"Huh. Brother Cheng, your news is really a surprise! ”

"It's not, we are engaged in building and decoration, and we know the quality of the house, but your sister-in-law's company is also a big enterprise in Luozhou City, and we understand the development trend.

"Hah, that's interesting."

"That's not it, the value of your house will increase dozens of times in the future, and it is estimated that you will not be able to buy it."

······

Luo Cheng's phone call made Jensen's heart bloom, and after packing up the tableware and tidying up the kitchen, he sat down in the study, seeing that it was already more than 9 o'clock in the evening.

Jensen recalled the three or five years when he first entered the industry, he worked hard and worked hard to make money, so he bought this courtyard villa in full, and he never tossed it, just left it vacant, and in the blink of an eye, 6 years have passed, and he almost forgot about it.

……

In the past few years, with his own efforts, he can be regarded as having a small savings, 1 year ago, under the recommendation of friends in the circle, he decisively bought a house in the center of Luozhou in full, but the girl who once loved him for buying this house is long gone.

Although there is no love, his career has made him, and now, at the age of 34, Jensen is also a well-known engineer in the construction industry.

In the eyes of the outside world, it is really a bit incredible that such an excellent man has been single, although there are many girls who admire him, but he doesn't see any of them.

Maybe the wound left by the relationship 4 years ago is too deep, he doesn't dare to love easily, afraid that he can't give the other half the life he wants, and even more afraid that the love he expects is not what the other half wants...

So Jensen feels that if love is not heart-to-heart, not understanding each other, and not running for a lifelong partner, then for him, he would rather be single than accommodating.

······

Recalling the events of the courtyard villa, Jenson finally remembered why the cover of the novel "How Good It Would Be If You Knew Me" that he bought today was so familiar.

He hurriedly turned on the computer and searched for "fence courtyard", which is the project name of the courtyard villa that Jenson once bought.

In the end, I was attracted by a picture freeze-frame, and this picture poster is not the picture vision scene I saw when I went to the real estate marketing department?

At that time, Jenson just thought that this kind of life was very beautiful, just like his ideal home, with a fence in front of the house and behind the house, or trees and fruits or flowers and grass...

So, Jenson didn't hesitate to buy the house here.

No wonder Jenson felt that the cover of that novel was familiar, yes, the house he had bought. Who would have thought that six years later it would be the backdrop for a novel, which is a strange feeling.

······

Valentine's Day is truly a holiday full of love hormones, and An Man wears a headband with her hair pinned and wears loose and comfortable casual clothes, sitting at her desk in her bedroom.

She took out her notebook from her bag and typed into the computer some of the scenes she had thought of while flipping through the books in the bookstore today, and thought thoughtfully about something, maybe one day, she would write a new story, which was also possible.

As soon as I turned off the computer and stretched my waist, the "squeak" door opened, and my roommate Chen Xiaoxia came back with a big bag.

"Manful, come and help me get it, there are too many things, I'm tired to death..."

"It's coming, it's coming." An Man ran out of the room and took some of the bags in Chen Xiaoxia's hand.

"Why are there so many things?"

"It's not Brother Kai yet, saying that I'm usually too busy to buy me gifts, so I'll buy so much at once today, and say that I can buy everything I like when I see it!!"

"Brother Kai really has a heart, but this is so heavy, and he doesn't ask me to go down and help get it."

"No, no, Brother Kai sent me downstairs, I said you are here, it is inconvenient for him to send me up, anyway, the elevator to the dormitory is such a short distance, where do you want to run."

Chen Xiaoxia unloaded the things in his hand and put them on the living room table, shrugged and exhaled.

"Okay, okay, our Xiaoxia is the most intimate~"

An Manman stretched out his hand to hug Chen Xiaoxia, this is the only best friend she stayed in Luozhou City to accompany her and work hard together, and is currently working as a counter manager in a construction bank in Luozhou City.

And the Brother Kai that Chen Xiaoxia just said is Chen Xiaoxia's boyfriend Wu Yikai, they have also been in love since school, and they have been in love for 7 years, and they are full of happiness.

"Na, these two spicy crayfish were ordered by me from Kaige's restaurant, and they are still hot, come, let's eat together, and I will accompany you for Valentine's Day!"

Chen Xiaoxia took out two boxes from a bag and opened them.

The fragrance came to his nose, and An was full of emotion to give Chen Xiaoxia a flying kiss, pretending to be reluctant:

"What can I do in the days after we get married..."

Chen Xiaoxia sneered, and hit two flying kisses in return.

Then, An Man also laughed, revealing two shallow dimples that were not too obvious, walked to the refrigerator with a pretended shy look, and took out two bottles of mineral water.

The two sat down and began to chat while peeling crayfish, and the room was full of laughter between An Man Man and Chen Xiaoxia.

Valentine's Day is also coming to an end, who said that Valentine's Day must be someone who has love, Valentine's Day is also suitable for those who have youth, friendship, and anticipation.

Thinking of the fence courtyard, Jensen hurriedly came to the living room, picked up the novel "How Good If You Knew Me" that he bought today just for the whole and placed on the small square table, and looked at the cover carefully again.

However, why is the name of this book "If you know how much I should be", if I am not mistaken, Mo Yan's poem is a bit sad and sad, and this style of painting is a bit inconsistent with the poem.

Forget it, it's still early to go to bed anyway, so it's better to read a book, so Jenson walked into the bedroom with this novel...

He leaned against the head of the bed and began to turn page by page, Jensen, who never read novels, was deeply attracted by the story, and the more he read, the more focused he became, the male and female protagonists did not have the so-called love at first sight, but slowly attracted each other in getting along, appreciated, tacitly understood, and fell in love...

The sense of the picture of "knowing you and understanding you, and I want to be with you" is real and strong to impact Jensen, so warm and moving.

This kind of love can be romantic to watch the ebb and flow of the tide together, the fireworks are brilliant, or you can plant flowers and fruits in front of the court, and sprinkle vegetable seedlings behind the courtyard. In the love of heart-to-heart, there is only the affection and persistence of each other...

When Jensen finished reading the little book in one go, it was already more than 1 o'clock in the middle of the night, and it was already late at night, but Jensen was not sleepy, but was in a high mood, and if he thought, yes, isn't this the love that Jenson longs for?

Jenson searched the Internet for the author "Qianqianjie", but this is only a pseudonym and does not have any introduction.

This night, Jenson tossed and turned, never slept steadily, this time, he didn't lose sleep because of work anxiety, but he never thought that the love he wanted seemed to appear in this novel, so warm and so thorough.

Is this kind of love expected by the author himself, or is it an imaginary fabrication by the author of this called "Thousand Knots"?
