"I didn't take it, I don't believe you went to the bottom of the bookcase in the room in the small courtyard to rummage through it, Zhou Qianze, I'm not so unbearable, isn't it good now" Jiang Yao spoke in a calm tone, as if he was answering him without emotion.

The night fell suddenly, Jiang Yao walked quickly and got out of the car, Zhou Qianze stuck up and stood next to her like a dog skin plaster, Jiang Yao took a few steps forward to widen the distance between him.

Under the street lamp, the figures of the two of them were stretched very long, and the distance in the middle was so strange that it was like a galaxy that could not be crossed, and sometimes it was like a man and woman with a secret crush trying to get closer to each other, the atmosphere was ambiguous, and Jiang Yao remembered that this was the first time to walk with him on the side of the road.

Soon Jiang Yao walked into the corridor, the automatic sensor light on the ceiling seemed to be insensitive, it was bright and dim, Jiang Yao held on to the railing and walked a few steps before turning around, the little face hidden in the shadows had a bit of a angry expression.

"Can you please stop following," she said, looking at him.

Zhou Qianze ignored it and followed her up the stairs.

"Yaoyao, can you let me in and eat something, I'm hungry" He seemed a little aggrieved, like a big boy coquettish to her.

It was cold and winter, and the snow kept falling, Jiang Yao shivered and didn't look at him again, and walked directly to room 302 on the third floor and took out the key to open it.

Zhou Qianze followed behind her and leaned directly on the sofa, looking around lazily, less than thirty square meters of interior, simple and old furniture kitchen, at a glance.

There are a few white roses and bellflowers in the glass vase on the coffee table, the flowers are fresh, and there are a few pots of small succulents, which can be seen that Jiang Yao has taken good care of them.

He knew that she loved to take care of these flowers and plants, so he deliberately found a yard to live with her and plant some flowers and plants for her to pass the time.

Jiang Yao didn't ask Zhou Qianze what he wanted to eat, and neatly went to the small kitchen to cook noodles, the range hood in the kitchen was a bit old and often couldn't inhale the fumes, making it all hot white mist, Jiang Yao took a few puffs and choked until he coughed.

Zhou Qianze saw it, got up, poured a glass of warm water, went to the kitchen and handed it to her.

"It's okay, drink some water, you don't know how many years the furniture and kitchenware you have here, it's rotten like this, it's better to move again", he patted Jiang Yao's back gently, his movements gentle.

Jiang Yao took a few sips and rolled her eyes at him, "Do you think everyone is just like you and don't eat the fireworks of the world?" The house prices in the imperial capital are ridiculously expensive, and it is already good to be able to rent such a price for 2,000 yuan."

Zhou Qianze leaned against the door frame with the glass of water, quietly watching Jiang Yao busy in the kitchen, this scene is very similar to an ordinary couple living a life, warm and happy, he likes it very much.

After Jiang Yao finished cooking, she took some pickles from the refrigerator and put them on the table, and put poached eggs in the two bowls of scallion oil noodles, and the two of them bowed their heads and ate their own food quietly.

After Jiang Yao finished eating, he asked him when he was leaving, Zhou Qianze jokingly said that he would stay with her if he didn't leave tonight, turned around and packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes silently, Jiang Yao was a little surprised, he had lived a luxurious life since he was a child, and he would even help her with housework.

Jiang Yao said angrily: "I don't have any men's clothes here for you to change."

"It's okay, I don't have to wear it" Zhou Qianze looked at her with a hippie smile.

Jiang Yao was speechless, didn't pay attention to him, turned over a set of pajamas from the wardrobe and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

After a while, Zhou Qianze also went to wash after Jiang Yao finished washing, and it took a long time to come out of the bathroom, sure enough, his upper body was not worn, but he was simply wrapped around a white bath towel, fine and crystal water droplets slipped from his neck to his solid abdominal muscles, his hair was wet, and he looked particularly male hormonal charm under the warm light, Jiang Yao hung his head shyly and did not look at him.

Zhou Qianze turned off the bedside lamp, the room was dark and oppressive, he lay flat on the bed to rest, Jiang Yao wanted to kick him down a little.

Zhou Qianze snorted: "Yaoyao, don't worry, I won't touch you tonight, sleep well, good night"

He held back until this moment, and those questions hidden in his heart never opened to her, he was afraid, afraid that after asking the question, she would be reminded of those secrets buried deep in her heart, and once again make her bruised.

Jiang Yao turned her back to him, pressed to the edge of the bed and fell, and fell asleep in a groggy daze.

That night, Zhou Qianze really didn't cross the line and touch her in a proper manner.

Early in the morning, the alarm clock set by the mobile phone woke Jiang Yao up, she turned over and pressed it, the side was empty, Zhou Qianze didn't know when he left, if it wasn't for the messy quilt, he would have been like he hadn't come.

Jiang Yao got up to freshen up, hurriedly packed up and dragged her suitcase to the airport, Gu Wei sent a message to tell her that he was already waiting for her at the airport, drank a glass of milk and hurried out.

As soon as you get off the plane, the gusts of wind blowing in Shanghai are completely different from the dry Shayang in the imperial capital, from head to toe with a humid breath, the temperature is not particularly low, but it is still a rainy day, vague and heavy water vapor mixed in the air, wet and sticky, there is a kind of bone-eating cold.

Jiang Yao and Gu Wei went to the branch in Huangpu District according to the itinerary, and after meeting with the senior management and socializing politely, the general manager of the branch left Gu Wei to talk alone, and she went back to the hotel alone to rest, and sent Xu Mozhi a WeChat message, saying that she was now in Shanghai, and asked him if he would like to meet if he was free in the afternoon.

The other side quickly replied, "I just got out of court, so I'll see you later"

The two sides made an appointment in the café next door to Jiang Yao's hotel, called "Hoshino", the retro industrial style decoration wall is full of vinyl records, but it is chic, I heard that this is still an Internet celebrity coffee shop, during the day to check in milk tea, coffee desserts, and at night it becomes a small bar for drinking and singing, Jiang Yao feels that this boss is really good at business.

Suddenly, Xu Mo walked over to her in a suit and waved his hand.

Xu Mo's peach blossom eyes are smiling, and his appearance is a creamy boy's group face.

Jiang Yao felt that he was very much like the kind of prodigal young master who would abandon his wife and daughter in the ancient texts, in fact, he was really attentive, and the girlfriend he talked about would be replaced in less than three months.

Jiang Yao looked at Xu Mozhi and couldn't help but laugh at him: "I said Master Xu, how can you look like a cynical scumbag in a righteous suit, and you don't look like a lawyer at all."

"Yo, I said Jiang Yao, can you not lose it every time you see me?"

"Can't"

Xu Mozhi: "......"

Jiang Yao and Xu Mozhi have been fighting since kindergarten to the current brother and sister relationship, the two families lived close to each other before, and the parents of both sides also thought about ordering dolls for the two families, but unfortunately neither of them had that intention to give up, and the Xu family later recognized Jiang Yao as a goddaughter, and naturally became Xu Mozhi's godsister.

Jiang Yao took a sip of coffee and said to Xu Mozhi: "He came to me"

Xu Mozhi was a little stunned for a few seconds, he knew who he was in Jiang Yao's mouth.

"That'...... Jiang Yao, do you still love him? He asked her rhetorically.
