Also, between her and Su Mingyuan, there seems to be nothing to say.

It's not appropriate to talk about work during dinner, and the common topics between her and him all involve the taboo of Tao eight years ago, and no one has forgotten it, but they both tacitly never mention it.

If you put the past aside, Qiao Yue feels that she and Su Mingyuan are two strangers who have nothing to do with each other, because in the past eight years, they have never crossed paths.

If life can be edited like a movie, Qiao Yue sometimes even wants to cut out the eight years of acquaintance and love, and re-acquaint herself with Su Mingyuan eight years later.

At least the first meeting was not an embarrassing evasion, at least she was still qualified to say to him: Su Mingyuan, it's nice to meet you.

And now, she can't do anything, she can only stay by his side obediently and fulfill the contract according to his wishes.

Sometimes Qiao Yue even hopes that the contract between her and Su Mingyuan will not last for one year, but for a lifetime.

This sick thought, which even she despises, sometimes makes Qiao Yue herself look down on herself.

After all, what woman wants to be the mistress of others and live for the rest of her life with a man who will only be treated with indifference and hatred.

Thinking that she would eventually be separated, Qiao Yue's heart became low, and the delicious meal instantly became tasteless.

The long eyelashes droop slightly, covering the sadness under the eyes.

Su Mingyuan glanced at Qiao Yue, who was sitting opposite and chewing wax, and his eyebrows wrinkled unconsciously.

Maybe the intensity of the morning's work is too much for her, and looking at her lack of appetite, the cold should not be healed, and it is not suitable to work too hard.

Su Mingyuan put down the dishes and chopsticks, and the sound he made caused Qiao Yue to raise her head.

"I'm going to take care of some work before half past two, and you can come back to the study after half past two and finish the rest of the work." Su Mingyuan said lightly.

Qiao Yue nodded, watched Su Mingyuan get up, and left.

Just as Su Mingyuan turned around to leave, Qiao Yue couldn't help but open her mouth.

"Aren't you going to the office in the afternoon?" Her voice was soft.

Looking at Su Mingyuan's appearance, dressed in casual loungewear, it seems that he has no intention of going to the company.

In his memory, since he met Su Mingyuan, he seemed to have never stayed at home like today, leaving early and returning late almost every day.

Su Mingyuan's figure paused, but he didn't answer her immediately.

Just when Qiao Yue regretted in her heart that she was nosy and asked questions that shouldn't be asked, Su Mingyuan leaned down slightly.

"Hmm." After saying only one word, he continued to stride out.

Qiao Yue was stunned, she didn't expect Su Mingyuan to answer her question so calmly, although there was only one word.

Su Mingyuan didn't go to the company, and asked her to go to the study after half past two to continue to complete the rest of the work, so she didn't have to go to the company today.

Qiao Yue lowered her head and continued to eat.

Although it was a shameful waste, Qiao Yue had already worked hard to eat, and most of the dishes were still left.

If it is usual, Qiao Yue will definitely seal it in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator, and save it for the next meal to eat.

But Qiao Yue knew Su Mingyuan's habits, he never ate leftovers.

So, leftovers of the meal had to be thrown away.

Qiao Yue disposed of the leftovers, then washed the dishes, wiped her hands and walked out.

When passing by the living room, Qiao Yue suddenly smelled a faint aroma, and a certain string in her heart was suddenly plucked by something.

She hesitated, then turned her feet and walked towards the garden.

The rain had stopped, and the crisp air was mixed with the scent of flowers and earth.

Birds chirp merrily in the branches, and crystal clear droplets of water sway on the leaves of roses.
