Chapter 15: First Encounter

After receiving the certificate, Gan Jingling invited Miao Shuyao with a smile on his face: "How about going to have a meal together, I know a very good restaurant." ”

Miao Shuyao glanced at the time, it was already half past eleven, and it took two and a half hours in the morning, she thought about it and politely refused: "Another day, I have to rush to the company today." ”

Gan Jingling was a little disappointed, but he still expressed his understanding, after all, the game is at a critical juncture now, and he should really put more attention on the game.

"Alright then, next time."

"Okay, then I'll go first." Miao Shuyao waved his hand at Gan Jingling, hugged the bouquet of roses and turned around to leave.

Gan Jingling watched her back disappear at the door, and then reluctantly withdrew her gaze.

He looked down at the marriage certificate in his hand, hooked his lips and smiled, picked up his phone and dialed a call.

——————

Refusing Gan Jingling's invitation to have lunch together, Miao Shuyao drove home.

Because of the need to get a certificate and take pictures, she wore a white shirt today, although it is normal to wear a white shirt to work, but she and Gan Jingling wore similar models, and their relationship is now extraordinary......

In order to avoid misunderstanding among others, Miao Shuyao was still ready to go home for a new set, and in addition, this bouquet of flowers could not be brought to the company, so she could only take it home.

In fact, Miao Shuyao knows that even if she wears the same style, others will not think too much, but Miao Shuyao has a ghost in her heart, so she naturally wants to avoid it.

When she got home, Miao Shuyao changed into a dark green shirt, and not long after, her mobile phone rang, and she took it out to see that it was Ms. Xu calling.

"Mom."

"Little Miao, where is Xiao Gan, is he by your side?" On the other end of the phone, Ms. Xu asked enthusiastically.

"He's not here, you're looking for him?" Miao Shuyao clicked the phone into amplification, put it on the kitchen countertop, turned around and took out the eggs from the refrigerator, and prepared to make a bowl of egg drop soup with noodles.

"Now that you've got your license, are you going to take him home? Your father hasn't met his son-in-law yet. ”

"Okay, I'll ask him later, see if he's free."

"Okay, you're busy." Ms. Xu received a satisfactory answer and decisively ended the call.

Hanging up the phone, Miao Shuyao continued to cook noodles, she skillfully knocked the egg lightly on the edge of the bowl, poured the egg liquid into the bowl and stirred, and then poured it into the pot and stirred.

Her movements are smooth and natural, the clear oil and egg liquid blend in the pan, making a sizzling sound, and the rich fragrance comes to her nose.

After a while, a bowl of hot egg noodles was served.

While eating noodles, Miao Shuyao thought about the next arrangement.

It is said that she has now obtained the certificate with Gan Jingling, and theoretically, she should take him home to meet his parents, and she should also meet Gan Jingling's parents.

But after all, they are sham marriages, and because of their work, they must have a hidden marriage.

Miao Shuyao couldn't help but question her choice, from the perspective of work alone, Gan Jingling is actually not a good fake marriage partner.

It's just that the certificates have already been received, and it is superfluous to think about these again, so I can only take one step at a time.

……

On the other hand, Gan Jingling did not go home immediately, nor did he go to the company, but drove to a large shopping mall in the city.

After parking the car, he went straight to the women's clothing section of the mall.

The salesman politely stepped forward and asked, "Hello sir, is there anything you can do to help you?" ”

Gan Jingling glanced around, and calmly instructed the salesperson: "All these styles are wrapped up for me according to M size and sent to Sogo Star Domain." ”

The salesman's face was full of surprise, deliberately restrained his emotions, and smiled and bowed: "Okay sir, please take a break." ”

"Hmm." Gan Jingling sat on the sofa and took a sip of the coffee that the salesman poured for him.

Not far away, groups of people gathered to chat, Gan Jingling has never liked to snoop on the privacy of others, so he didn't care.

It was just that suddenly, the appearance of two figures attracted all his attention.

It was a young boy and a girl, the girl was older, about ten years old, and the boy was younger, about seven or eight years old.

At this moment, the two children were shopping hand in hand, the boy was chattering in front of him, I don't know what to say, the girl sneered, and the atmosphere was particularly harmonious.

Gan Jingling was a little stunned, this scene made him feel very familiar, as if he had seen his first encounter with Miao Shuyao-

At that time, he had just celebrated his seventh birthday, and his parents had divorced and they had left the city, leaving him to his grandfather and grandmother.

It was a nightmare for him, desperate to get his mom and dad back, but every time he cried and screamed hoarsely, he didn't get anything.

The grandfather who lingered in the flowers and indulged in wine, and the sentimental and sad grandmother, they did not give him the slightest attention.

Until, at the intersection of the sycamore trees, he met her.

The girl with the rose in her hand.

She was only ten years old at the time, with a long ponytail, a thin build, fair skin, and black and white eyes looking at him curiously.

"Little brother, what's wrong with you?"

At that time, he accidentally fell to the ground, the gravel cut through his skin, the blood soaked the stone, and the shock and pain caused by the fall made him stunned and did not move.

The appearance of the girl was like a light shining into his heart.

The girl held out a hand towards him and pulled him up from the ground.

"Thank you." After Gan Jingling stood firmly, he looked at the girl gratefully.

The girl raised the corners of her mouth and smiled lightly, and said to him, "You're welcome." By the way, it's so late, why are you here alone? ”

"I ...... My mom and dad don't want me anymore, I want to come to them, but I can't find ......."

"Huh?" The girl was surprised, she thought for a moment, raised her hand and handed the rose in her hand to Gan Jingling.

"For you."

"Huh?" Gan Jingling was slightly stunned.

"Hmmm! The flower language of the rose is 'Even if the world is occasionally cold, the heart must still bloom with flowers.' 'Little brother, even if no one loves you, you have to love yourself, and being strong in your heart is really strong, do you remember? ”

Gan Jingling took the bouquet from the girl's hand and responded crisply: "I remember!" Thank you sister~"

"My name is Miao Shuyao, you can call me Sister Miao, little brother, have you eaten?"

"I didn't ...... No. Gan Jingling pursed his lips and shook his head silently.

"There is a particularly delicious restaurant near here, which was opened by my familiar aunt, let me take you to dinner, and by the way, ask Aunt Chen to help you treat the wound."

"Good! Thank you, Sister Miao~"

At dusk, under the plane tree, a girl leads a boy holding a rose flower and walks on a stone path.

The roses are delicate, the girl's side face is quiet and soft, and the boy turns his head to look at the girl from time to time, his expression is focused and serious, as if he wants to keep the girl in his heart.

……

The beautiful scene in his memory came to mind, Gan Jingling lowered his eyes and couldn't help but chuckle.

Now that he has made his dream come true and married his sweetheart, the corners of his lips involuntarily raise a happy smile.

It's just that now he hasn't fully got her, and he needs to put in more effort to win her heart.

——————

Because she took leave in the morning, she needed to spend more time to complete the workload of the day, so Miao Shuyao should have worked overtime in the evening.

Due to the tight task, Miao Shuyao did not return home until after eleven o'clock in the evening.

According to usual times, Lu Xiaoning should have slept at this point, but when Miao Shuyao pushed the door open, he unexpectedly found that the living room was still brightly lit.

Miao Shuyao walked into the living room curiously, and saw Lu Xiaoning sitting cross-legged on the sofa watching TV, unable to hide her sleepiness between her eyebrows, and she was also a little depressed.

"Xiaoxiao, why haven't you slept so late?" Miao Shuyao took off her coat, changed into slippers, and sat down next to Lu Xiaoning.

Lu Xiaoning raised his eyes to look at her, sighed, and said in a complaining tone: "I can't sleep." ”

Hearing this, Miao Shuyao raised her eyebrows, and looked angry: "What's wrong with you?" Did anyone bully you? Isn't that the PE teacher? ”

Lu Xiaoning pursed her lips and raised her hand to the coffee table: "I need my good sister to give me an explanation!" What is this? ”

Hearing Lu Xiaoning's words, Miao Shuyao chuckled in her heart, and subconsciously looked in the direction of Lu Xiaoning's finger, and the familiar red book came into view.

Miao Shu helped her forehead, yes, she was in too much of a hurry at noon, and it seemed that she hadn't collected her marriage certificate.

"Xiaoxiao, you listen to my explanation~"

"Okay, I'll wait! You say, explain that my girlfriend suddenly got the certificate, and I didn't even know it! Lu Xiaoning glared at Miao Shuyao angrily.

Miao Shuxiao coughed twice, pondered for a moment, and said hesitantly: "Xiaoxiao, things are not what you think, in fact...... We are a fake marriage. ”

"What did you say?!" Lu Xiaoning's face was stunned, and he stared at Miao Shuyao with round eyes, "Fake marriage? ”

Miao Shuyao sighed and told Lu Xiaoning everything that happened during this time, and in the end, she said helplessly:

"You also know my mother, I will never give up if I don't achieve my goal, I'm just just trying to hide quietly......"

"That's too casual, isn't it, is that hidden marriage partner of yours credible? Something's wrong, this is not your Miao Shuyao's style of doing things. ”

Lu Xiaoning looked at Miao Shuyao carefully, suddenly remembered something, and suddenly said, "Ah Yao, you shouldn't have any thoughts about him, right?" I don't believe that you just pulled him to count......"

Miao Shuyao hurriedly covered Lu Xiaoning's mouth, and her expression was a little unnatural: "What are you talking nonsense, he is my junior brother, how can I have thoughts about him, it's not to deal with my mother." ”

Lu Xiaoning broke free from Miao Shuyao's hands and looked at her suspiciously: "Okay, I barely believe you, but Ah Yao, you have no thoughts about him, but are you sure he has no thoughts about you?" You've got to keep a snack! ”

"Anla, I'll be careful, it's twelve o'clock, go to bed, don't you have morning class tomorrow."

"Oh~" Lu Xiaoning was pushed back to the room, and he didn't forget to leave a sentence: "Let me tell you, he must have thoughts about you......"

"Alright, alright, go to bed."
