Chapter 24: Quarrels

Zhong Jiaran enjoyed a candlelit dinner with Gao Lang, and accompanied him to visit his grandfather in Southwest Hospital, and then she hitchhiked home alone.

As soon as the taxi drove to the gate of the community, Zhong Jiaran saw Du Ancheng standing next to the Ferrari, and his heart was inexplicably empty, as if he had been caught by his husband for stealing a lover.

Zhong Jiaran stepped out of the taxi, walked to Du Ancheng's side, and saw the cigarette butt at his feet, he knew that he must have been waiting here for a long time, and he didn't dare to look at him, "An Cheng......"

Du Ancheng watched Zhong Jiaran get out of the car, watched her come over, and kept saying nothing, looking at her quietly, his eyes were complicated, as if he was examining an unsolved problem.

Zhong Jiaran looked at Du Ancheng like this, and became more and more unsure of how to face it, and muttered: "Let's go up......" After that, Zhong Jiaran turned around and wanted to leave.

Du Ancheng grabbed her arm and asked in a deep voice, "Where did you go just now?" His voice was hoarse, dry and cold, and Zhong Jiaran was inexplicably a little frightened in his ears.

"I ......" Zhong Jiaran wanted to simply have a showdown with him, but he was worried that it would stimulate his brain.

"Are you hiding something from me?" Du Ancheng's eyes wandered back and forth on her face, as if searching for answers.

"I ......" Zhong Jiaran plucked up the courage to look at him directly, and said in a straight voice: "An Cheng, we ...... We don't fit! ”

Du Ancheng felt a pain in his heart, his face was a little more ugly than just now, and he tried his best to curb the irritability in his heart, "Where are we not suitable?!" ”

"An Cheng, we are really not suitable! You don't support my work, and you don't like me doing fashion design. Zhong Jiaran looked at him and said seriously.

"We have already agreed on this issue, you can continue to work, but you have to stay in Chongqing, what's the problem!" Du Ancheng resolutely retorted.

Hearing him say this, Zhong Jiaran no longer dwelled on this question, and continued: "I have been free since I was a child, and no one always asks where to go or what to do......

"You're my fiancΓ©e, and I don't even have the right to know where you are?" Du Ancheng frowned, and there was a faint flame in his eyes, and he interrupted her words angrily.

"I'll admit, none of this is your problem, it's all mine! Ancheng, we really don't fit. Zhong Jiaran smiled astringently, looked at him, and said, "An Cheng, it's not too late, let's stop here!" Don't waste any more time on me, I'm not worth it. ”

Zhong Jiaran's words pierced into Du Ancheng's heart like a sharp cone, he looked at her fixedly, for a while, he smiled to himself, that smile looked a little empty and lonely, which did not match his usual cold face, and said quietly: "Thinking that today is your birthday, since I got up in the morning, I have been thinking about what gift to give you, so that you can like it, so that you will not be thrown into the drawer by you, and you are too lazy to take a look!" In the afternoon, I finished the negotiation with the customer, and immediately went to buy a gift for you, that is, when I paid, I was still thinking, will you like it? Three hours ago, I rushed to your house, and my mother said that you were working overtime in the company. I immediately rushed to your company again, I wanted to surprise you, but as a result, you didn't work overtime at all! Then, you say, you'll be back in an hour, and I'm waiting here like a fool until now. And you, not only are you not half moved, but you want to break up with me for no reason! I've been waiting for you here for three hours, just to hear your inexplicable words! ”

At the end, Du Ancheng had already roared! His chest fell together, and suddenly a stream of qi and blood rushed straight to his head, making his head suddenly hurt, he subconsciously held his head with both hands, squatted down, and his expression was painful, "Ah......"

"An Cheng...... What happened to you? Does your head hurt again? Seeing this, Zhong Jiaran instantly swallowed the words he wanted to say back into his stomach, squatted beside Du Ancheng, and said with concern.

"Leave me alone!" Du Ancheng shook the arm she was holding and said angrily. His face hung down, as if he was hurt.

"An Cheng, do you have a bad headache? Do you want to go to the hospital? Zhong Jiaran once again held his hand holding his head and said with concern.

Du Ancheng ignored her at all, and after a long time, he felt that his headache was slightly relieved, and he actually forced himself to get into the car and wanted to start the car and leave.

Seeing this, Zhong Jiaran, who followed the car, quickly grabbed his hand firmly and stopped: "An Cheng, you are crazy!" How can you drive like that? Get out of the car first, if there is anything to say, let's talk about it! ”

Du Ancheng turned his head to look at her, his eyes were a deep shade, he was silent for a moment, and said, "Don't pretend to care about me!" I don't need to! ”

"An Cheng, now is not the time to quarrel. Let's go up first, there is still medicine at home. Zhong Jiaran was anxious, and there were already tears in his eyes.

"I said, I don't need your pretense of concern! Don't pretend you care about me! Du Ancheng looked at her with strange eyes, didn't wait for her to speak, and added: "If you really care about me, then marry me!" We've got the wedding! ”

"An Cheng...... You know that my uncles and aunts are against me continuing to work after marriage, I will not be able to work for at least one or two years after marriage, and my work 'Kailang' company has just won a large order and is about to be put into production, how can I leave my job at this juncture? An Cheng, you also know that I have poured a lot of time and effort into 'Kailang'......" Zhong Jiaran was shocked when he heard this, and said hurriedly.

"Of course I do! Just because of your design, you only know how to draw every day, and you have to cancel all your appointments with me! Designed in the company, but also at home; Design at work, design after work, you only have your design in your eyes! Can your eyes look at me too! Du Ancheng was angry when he heard her mention the design, and interrupted her with an angry roar.

"I won't be drawing at home in the future, but I can't quit my job and marry you right now. My work has just been put into production, and the company has entrusted me with full supervision and responsibility for the quality of the finished products, and I can't leave my job now, no matter what. Zhong Jiaran's tone was firm. She and Gao Lang still have a "one-year appointment", Gao Lang is still waiting for her, at this time, how can she promise Du Ancheng.

Du Ancheng stared at her, his eyes gloomy as gray as a fish's eye. After a while, he smiled to himself as if he was self-deprecating, his smile was alienated, and gradually condensed into a stiff arc supported by the corners of his mouth, "In your heart, I am really not as important as one of your design works!" ”

Zhong Jiaran lowered his head, avoided Du Ancheng's gaze, and remained silent without speaking.

After a while, Du Ancheng turned his head sideways, no longer looked at her, and said with a wry smile: "You go up!" Since I'm nothing in your heart, don't care about me anymore! ”

"Let's go up together, how can you drive in such a state?" Zhong Jiaran looked up at him and said with concern.

"I said, don't worry about it! Don't pretend to care about me! After he finished yelling at her, he turned his head again in a negative mood, and his eyes looked out of the car window, but the corners of his eyes were inexplicably sour.

After that, neither of them spoke again, and just sat in silence in the car.

Half an hour later, Du Ancheng's phone rang suddenly, and the phone ringing was particularly abrupt in this silent car, Du Ancheng picked it up and saw that it was Zhong Xueliang calling, and pressed the answer button, "Hey, Dad!" ”

"An Cheng, did you receive Ran Ran? She hasn't been home yet, and her phone is off. Zhong Xueliang's anxious voice came.

"Dad, don't worry! Ran Ran is with me now. Du Ancheng handed the mobile phone to Zhong Jiaran, "Dad's phone." ”

"Hey, Dad!" Zhong Jiaran took the phone and said.

"Ranran, why did your phone turn off? Know how worried your mom is about you! Zhong Xueliang reproached.

"Dad, Mom, I'm worried about you, my phone is out of battery. Never again. Zhong Jiaran said guiltily.

"Ranran, where are you now? It's almost eleven o'clock, why don't you go home? Xu Hui's concerned voice came.

"Mom, don't worry. An Cheng and I have already arrived at the gate of the community, so let's come up. Mom, I'm fine, I'm hanging. Zhong Jiaran hurriedly replied.

"Hurry up!" Xu Hui repeated it again.

"Okay." Zhong Jiaran hung up the phone, turned his head to look at Du Ancheng, and said softly: "Ancheng, let's go up!" ”

"You go up yourself." Du Ancheng was still depressed.

"Gone! Wait a minute, Mom and Dad should be in a hurry again. Zhong Jiaran dragged him out of the car. He also had a headache just now, how could she rest assured that he drove back.

"Wait!" As soon as Du Ancheng was dragged out of the car, he paused and said stiffly: "I have something to put in the trunk, you go and get it." ”

Zhong Jiaran walked to the back of the car as she said, opened the trunk, and saw that it was a large bouquet of red roses, she was stunned for a moment, took it out, and there was a beautiful greeting card sandwiched between the flowers, writing, "Wife, happy birthday!" ”

"An Cheng, thank you!" Zhong Jiaran walked up to Du Ancheng with roses in his arms and said gratefully. Immediately, she took his hand and said, "Let's go up!" ”

"Here's for you!" Du Ancheng still stood still, but took out a beautiful box from his trouser pocket and handed it to Zhong Jiaran.

Zhong Jiaran opened the box and saw that it was a jasper bracelet, smooth and moist under the illumination of the street lamp, crystal clear, it was really a green bamboo body blue wave pool, dripping exquisite translucent light! She just didn't know jade, and she could see that this jade bracelet was worth a lot of money, so she looked up at him and said movingly: "An Cheng, thank you!" ”

"Do you like it?" Du Ancheng asked. His voice was a little awkward, whether it was nervous or angry.

"Like! Thank you! Zhong Jiaran asked casually, "When did you buy it?" ”

"I bought it at auction a month ago." Du Ancheng replied. His voice sounded a little more normal.

"An Cheng, thank you!" Zhong Jiaran took Du Ancheng's hand again and wanted to walk towards the gate of the community, "Let's go up!" ”

"Wait!" Du Ancheng added: "I drove the car into the garage. ”

Immediately, Du Ancheng drove the car into the garage of the community, parked it, and then the two took the elevator upstairs together.
