Jiang Yao slowly raised his eyes and asked him dryly, "Don't you know what I mean?" Is there a problem with my reply like that?"

After a moment of silence, Zhou Qianze didn't speak, as if the two of them had been silent on the topic without talking for a few words since they reunited, and it stopped abruptly, or it was a fierce quarrel.

He felt that this should not be the case, that it was not what he wanted.

Jiang Yao's mobile phone suddenly rang a transoceanic number, it was her mother calling, but at this moment Zhou Qianze was in the car, she turned over and covered the mobile phone screen downwards and didn't dare to answer, rang for a few seconds and hung up, Jiang Yao's mother muttered and forgot the jet lag before remembering that she should be asleep, and sent her a New Year's Day blessing on WeChat, telling her to take care of herself.

Zhou Qianze raised his eyebrows and glanced at the past, that number was an American number, Jiang Yao remarked her mother, why didn't she answer, could it be that Jiang Yao suddenly went to the United States because it had something to do with her mother?

A series of question marks hit his heart, gradually encroaching like cannibalizing mulberry leaves.

He found that he didn't know Jiang Yao as well as he thought he would.

He was surprised that in the years he was with her, he had hardly deliberately asked about her family, nor had he learned about her previous life, he was too obsessed with himself, and he was always busy building and stabilizing his career, gaining a firm foothold in the group, and ignoring her.

He asked her, "Is there any arrangement for New Year's Day?" ”

Jiang Yao didn't answer immediately, took a breath, and said, "What are you doing?" ”

"Take you somewhere"

She raised her eyes and glanced at him, and said lightly: "Don't go"

She didn't understand what Zhou Qianze was doing on the spot.

Jiang Yao was a little tired and wanted to go back to the hotel to rest, she just wanted to spend the rare vacation in the hotel.

Zhou Qianze turned his head to look at her, raised his eyebrows, and said with a dead face: "If you don't go, you have to go, how can you get on the thief ship and let the thief go."

Jiang Yao was completely tired for a moment, woke up in shock, and retorted: "If I say I won't go, I won't go, you can either let me get out of the car or send me back to the hotel."

Zhou Qianze smiled, why is this feminine temperament so big, and asked her to take the gift box with a white ribbon bow tied in the back seat and open it, Jiang Yao looked back, a little curious, turned sideways and reached out to take it, and put it on his lap, the box is dark green flannel, and it feels a little frosty and coarse to the touch.

"Open it, Yaoyao"

It was a platinum couple ring, and she was a little disappointed in her heart, laughing at herself for thinking too much, how could he give her a wedding ring.

Five years ago, Jiang Yao went to the airport to fly to the United States on the last night before parting, and she asked him for the first time afterwards: "Zhou Qianze, will you love me so much that you marry me one day?"

He replied to her casually: "It's good for us to be like this now, Yaoyao"

She is a smart person, what does Zhou Qianze's evasive answer mean, she understands, the answer is about to come out - no.

Her eyes flashed with disappointment and loneliness, her eyelashes lowered, she felt ridiculous, and asked knowingly.

The next day, she took her passport and luggage and left the small courtyard without looking back.

Resolutely, without saying goodbye, he left nothing to him.

She had read the brand in a magazine, marketing a man's life for one person, the woman's one was surrounded by a circle of delicate diamonds, the dim yellow lights in the car shone like broken sequins, Jiang Yao looked at it carefully, and the inner ring of the two rings was engraved with J&Z, the first letter of their surname.

Zhou Qianze really knows her taste well.

She liked the ring, but now she didn't dare to put it on easily, and she felt that the ring was so heavy that it was like a shackle holding her down.

"Yaoyao, let's put it on together," he said.

Jiang Yao snorted a few times: "Don't wear it, I don't want others to misunderstand that I have a famous flower."

"I picked your famous flower, do others dare to pick it," his tone was deep and firm.

Jiang Yao is his, who dares to covet it.

As the clouds closed in the hazy night, the two of them blended into the highway traffic, passed through the city, and drove in the direction of Hangzhou.

The stereo in the car faintly sang the song "Light Chaser", which was popular in 2017 - "Some love is like the sun falling, and the singer loses while owning" The singer's voice is gentle and delicate.

Jiang Yao felt a little hypnotic when she heard the song, sleepiness swept over, and she yawned, she knew that she couldn't go back to the hotel, so she simply closed her eyes and fell asleep.

The car drove for nearly three hours, and the sky was hazy like a light gray curtain.

Suddenly.

In the east, a fish's belly gradually turned white, mixed with the darkness of the long night and the early morning of light.

Jiang Yao slowly woke up, stretched and raised her eyes, and saw that Zhou Qianze was still driving.

He whispered to her, "Are you awake?" After a while to get to the city, why don't you continue to sleep"

"I slept comfortably in the car, my legs were numb and my waist was sore" Jiang Yao stretched her waist, raised her arms and vaguely revealed her thin waist, looking charming.

Zhou Qianze suddenly wanted to tease her when he saw it: "Yaoyao, is your back and legs numb more than that?"

Jiang Yao was instantly ashamed, his face was flushed, and he glared at him and read his name aloud: "Zhou Qianze!" ”

Zhou Qianze smiled with a graceful face, and said: "Then try my best to move next time, Yaoyao, I can't exhaust you."

His voice was as warm as wine, and it made people blush and intoxicated.

Jiang Yao turned her head to look out of the car window, ignoring him, trying to hide her shy and hot face.

The car went straight to Hangzhou Xiaoshan, and stopped at a suburban resort, there are three or four parks in this place, the garden is in Chinese architectural style, rockery flower pond, wooden bridge pavilion, quite ancient.

As soon as Zhou Qianze and her got out of the car, two waiters dressed in Tang costumes stepped forward respectfully: "Mr. Xiao Zhou, Mrs. Song is waiting for you to have breakfast, please come with me."

Jiang Yao tugged at the corner of his clothes, his eyes were a little flustered, and he asked him in a low voice, "Who is Old Lady Song?" ”

"My Grandmother"

Then he said, "Introduce you."

Jiang Yao was a little surprised, Zhou Qianze actually brought her to meet his elders, he didn't mention anything to her family in the past, once she tentatively asked about his family, and he always found an excuse to cover up the past.

Jiang Yao felt that it was a mess now, and asked in a tentative tone, "Huh?" Can you not see it?"

Zhou Qianze rubbed her head, held her slightly sweaty palm, and said in a doting tone: "You are my woman, I want to see you"

The waiter took them to the corner and crossed the long cobblestone road, the corridor of the entire Chinese structure courtyard was wafting with a faint scent of sandalwood, Jiang Yao felt that it smelled very good, the waiter pushed open the dark red wooden door, and an old man sitting at the head of the round table with white hair and two crossed wooden hairpins, looking at them with a kind smile.

She stood behind Zhou Qianze and walked forward silently, Zhou Qianze's grandmother's old and wrinkled hands pulled him tightly, and kept chanting: "Little Bao'er is here, grandma misses you"

Then she tilted her head and glanced at Jiang Yao behind her, and asked him, "Who is this girl?" It's so beautiful! ”
