"You're welcome." Chu Zhaoyang paused and said, "In the future, just take good care of Gu Nian." ”
Gu Nian didn't expect Chu Zhaoyang to say such a sentence, his face turned red, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bend up and down.
Sister-in-law Yu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded heavily: "Hey! Pick-up"
After Sister-in-law Yu left, Gu Nian asked Chu Zhaoyang to wait obediently in the restaurant outside, and Gu Nian cooked dumplings for him.
Chu Zhaoyang glanced at the bar and didn't want to go out, so he simply sat down by the bar and asked, "You ate?" Compensation"
"Ate a little." Gu Nian said, "I don't have much appetite, but Sister-in-law Yu has already done it, so I'm embarrassed not to eat at all." ”
Taking advantage of the effort of cooking dumplings, Gu Nian mixed two plates of Jiao sauce and placed them on the bar, so he simply ate them here for a while.
Gu Nian took out the dumplings and brought them over and put them away.
"Taste it." Gu Nian said with a smile, holding his cheeks and waiting for Chu Zhaoyang's evaluation.
Chu Zhaoyang looked at her, as if from beginning to end, she hadn't thought to ask him about the engagement, what happened?
It's like deliberately avoiding it, pretending as if nothing has happened.
Chu Zhaoyang took the chopsticks and picked up the steaming dumplings, the snow-white dough was a little crystalline, and he could see the light emerald color of the filling inside.
The appearance of white and chubby is very likable.
Bite into the halfway point, the filling is full, and the juice still flows out. The corn kernels are sweet, the shiitake mushrooms are rich, and the bite is slightly crunchy, which is delicious.
Chu Zhaoyang nodded vigorously: "It's delicious." ”
So he stuffed the other half into it, and immediately picked up another one, soaked the juice, and stuffed it whole into his mouth.
I was probably hungry, I didn't think it before, but I was hooked by the dumplings just now, so I couldn't hold it back, and I ate quickly.
Gu Nian saw that he was eating fragrantly, and he also had an appetite, so he picked up one and ate it slowly.
She wasn't hungry, she just couldn't stop looking at her mouth.
Chu Zhaoyang ate vigorously, sweat broke out on his forehead, and a faint red welled up on his cheeks.
After a while, he ate all the dumplings cooked by Gu Nian.
The two ate quietly, and neither spoke again.
While Gu Nian was eating, he couldn't help but look at Chu Zhaoyang, as if he would never have a chance again after reading it today.
Chu Zhaoyang got up and put the empty plates and chopsticks in the dishwasher.
Gu Nian didn't know what else to do, so after thinking about it, he was about to leave the kitchen.
As soon as he turned around, he was grabbed by Chu Zhaoyang's wrist.
"Why didn't you ask me about my engagement?" Chu Zhaoyang asked in a low voice.
Gu Nian lowered his head, avoiding his gaze.
His eyes turned slightly and said, "Didn't you say that you wouldn't be engaged to her?" ”
Chu Zhaoyang paused, didn't speak, took Gu Nian to the living room and sat down, and then said, "There will still be an engagement banquet." ”
Gu Nian froze suddenly, and subconsciously wanted to pull out his wrist.
Chu Zhaoyang held on tightly, Gu Nian glanced at the hand on his wrist, quickly looked away, and looked away, but he refused to look at him.
"There is an engagement banquet, but there will be an engagement party." Chu Zhaoyang explained.
Gu Nian was stunned: "What do you mean?" ”
"Believe me, I said I wouldn't get engaged to her." Chu Zhaoyang pulled her closer, "On the day of the engagement, I will go, but as an audience." Since they want to get engaged, let them be in the limelight. ”
"What's your plan?" Gu Nian asked in surprise.
"Until the end, no one dares to say that there is anything wrong in the middle." Chu Zhaoyang said, I'm afraid that if there is an accident, Gu Nian will be disappointed.
"I promise you, no matter what the circumstances, there will be no engagement." Chu Zhaoyang was rare and said a lot of words, "If you succeed, the Jiang family will never be able to bother you anymore." If something goes wrong, then I won't show up at all, who can Jiang Xiangxue get engaged to? ”
Chu Zhaoyang saw that Gu Nian was silent, thinking that she was still worried.
He let go of her wrist, Gu Nian felt a cold on his wrist, and without the temperature of his palm, his heart was empty.
But suddenly, both sides of her waist were firmly grasped by him.
The hot temperature of the palm is transmitted to the skin through the clothes, which is warm and makes her feel extra at ease.
Then, she was carried to his lap.
Chu Zhaoyang hugged her tightly, pressed the back of her head with his palm, and pressed her face tightly against his chest.
Gu Nian heard Chu Zhaoyang's heartbeat of "knock, knock, knock", fast and powerful.
"Nian Nian, trust me." Chu Zhaoyang lowered his head, his lips pressed to her delicate ears, and muttered in a low voice.
There was a faint hint of fear in her hoarse voice, afraid that she would not believe him and leave him.
She had just warmed him and brightened his heart.
Like a little sun hanging above his heart, he didn't want this little sun to leave.
After leaving, his heart was empty, cold, and dark. You can no longer feel the temperature and color.
His breath trembled a little, and his arms tightened around her: "You said that you won't let go of my hand again." ”
Yes, will not put.
Before Chu Zhaoyang came back, she was lying on Chu Zhaoyang's bed. on.
During the time when Chu Zhaoyang returned to Chu's house, she thought about it.
If...... If Chu Zhaoyang is really engaged to Jiang Xiangxue, she shouldn't let go of his hand.
It took a lot of courage for her to make such a determination.
At that time, she will become a third party that everyone despises, right?
Without a name, you will always have to hide in the dark, sneaky, to be with him.
But she promised that she would not let go of his hand again, and she was reluctant to let go.
If he is engaged to Jiang Xiangxue, then in the future, Chu Zhaoyang will really be lonely.
She couldn't let go of leaving Chu Zhaoyang alone, especially after seeing that video.
His thin and small figure at that time would always unconsciously coincide with his tall and straight figure now.
Even though he was already so tall and strong, he was still so lonely, carrying the weight all the time, and no one could share some of it for him.
She wants to share the burden for him, wants to accompany him, and walks with him.
Even if...... No matter how hard it is.
"I won't let it go." Gu Nian hugged him tightly, rubbing his cheek against his chest twice.
The faster Chu Zhaoyang's heart beats, the more indescribably moved.
Why is this girl so stupid?
Even if he hadn't made any promises, even if it was really possible for him to get engaged to someone else, she wouldn't let go.
How could she be so stupid?
Gu Nian, you are so stupid, how can I let you go with confidence?
So in this life, I won't let go of your hand.
Chu Zhaoyang wrapped his arms around her tightly, and he was not satisfied no matter how tightly he hugged her.
That strength is that he can't embed Gu Nian directly into his flesh and bones.
"Chu Zhaoyang......" she exclaimed hesitantly.
Chu Zhaoyang looked down at her, his forehead pressed warmly against her temples.
As her eyes blinked, her eyelashes gently swept the corners of her eyes.
Close enough to see the light in her eyes.
"Huh?" He replied softly.
Gu Nian also rubbed it into his arms and said, "Jiang Xiangxue took it this afternoon...... Find me with a video of you being kidnapped as a child and tell me that she also showed it to your parents. If you don't agree to your engagement, publish the video. ”
Chu Zhaoyang froze for a moment, and his voice was hoarse: "I know." ”
Gu Nian looked up at him in astonishment, and saw that his eyebrows were uninterested, and his face was calm: "My parents told me and showed me it." ”
"Then you-" Gu Nian was surprised.
"I don't care." Chu Zhaoyang said, "It's just a video, and I want to manipulate my life." I can tell which is more important. ”
For Gu Nian, he can give everything, let alone such a short video.
Suddenly, Chu Zhaoyang lowered his head and asked her, "You always know, why did you say it now?" ”
Gu Nian was silent for a long time before she said in a dumb voice: "She also threatened me that if I didn't stay away from you, she would also publish the video." ”
"So you're leaving?" Chu Zhaoyang's voice suddenly sank, as if ice had been added, and his dark eyes froze.
Gu Nian felt a little painful being strangled by him, but he didn't say anything, just shook his head: "You are engaged, I can't stop it, and I will always be with you." Chu Zhaoyang, I told you, I won't let go of your hand again. So, even if I'm going to become the unsightly kind, I'll still hide in the shadows and keep holding you. ”
Chu Zhaoyang looked at her fixedly, the whole person was like a stone statue, and the shock in his heart was beyond measure, and there were turbulent waves.
She actually ......
