Chapter 281: Together

January 31 was Chinese New Year's Eve, and Bai Changxia called Shen Jianian three days in advance, strongly inviting her to come to his house for the New Year, and there were many people.

On the day of the family reunion, one person is too lonely, and Bai Changxia doesn't want her to be alone.

Shen Jianian refused.

Bai Changxia wanted to continue to persuade, but suddenly thought of something and asked, "Do you have other arrangements?" ”

"Nope." Shen Jianian was flipping through the magazine and replied casually.

"That's not right." Bai Changxia's smiling voice was wrapped in a sense of inquiry, "Didn't Boss Fu mention to you that he wanted to celebrate the New Year with you?" ”

Shen Jianian pinched the corner of the magazine, his fingertips paused, and did not turn it over: "He went on a business trip abroad last week and has not returned, the afternoon flight the day before Chinese New Year's Eve." Moreover, Chinese New Year's Eve is no better than New Year's Day, and he should go back to the old mansion to spend it with his elders. ”

Bai Changxia couldn't hear her emotions, but he got other information from her words: "You even know his itinerary, you two are ...... Reconciled? ”

The last time I saw Fu Jichen was on the night of Shen Jianian's birthday, when the two of them were not so close, in this month, has there been new progress between them?

Shen Jianian's voice lowered a little, and he said vaguely: "What do you mean to reconcile?" ”

The ugly cow cat jumped on the sofa, erected its fluffy tail, stepped on Shen Jianian's leg with one paw, and meowed at her, no longer able to find the fierce appearance of the dominant side when she was wandering.

Shen Jianian touched the cow cat's head, and listened to Bai Changxia on the phone and corrected the wording with a smile: "It's because I don't know what I want, you two didn't quarrel or break up, so naturally you can't talk about the word 'reconciliation', so what's the situation now?" You're together. ”

The cow cat tilted her head and arched Shen Jiannian's palm, stretched out her pink little tongue to lick her sleeve, helped her comb the hair on her sweater, licked it one by one, and combed the hair in one direction.

Shen Jianian bent his eyes and looked soft.

It's been more than a month, and this fierce cat is finally willing to let her touch it, and then she bought a cage and put it in, took it to the pet hospital for vaccination, deworming, and officially took it home for adoption.

At first it always hides under the sofa, under the bed, and then she just finds a cardboard box or a garbage can to get into, and when she hides the garbage can and cardboard box, it hides in a plastic bag.

Day after day, after a person and a cat have lived together for a long time, it will no longer avoid her, it will jump into her arms and rub her palm like now, and will help her comb the fur on her sweater.

She is not this cat, from the beginning of the defense, to acceptance, to approach, trust.

Time can change a lot.

On the other side of the phone, Bai Changxia waited for a long time and didn't hear Shen Jianian's voice, thinking that she wouldn't answer, and was about to change the topic, Shen Jianian said "um" very abruptly.

On the morning of New Year's Day, Fu Jichen smashed all her shells and forced her to face his feelings, and he kissed her when she was sober, and she did not reject her.

Maybe she didn't reject him for a long time, but she didn't want to admit it.

Bai Changxia covered her mouth and was so surprised that she couldn't make a sound, Shen Jianian actually hid it so tightly and didn't reveal it at all, if she hadn't taken the initiative to ask it today, she didn't plan to say it.

"We're in this together." Shen Jianian said, "Maybe I used to like him very much. ”

So, even though she lost all the memories related to him, she still couldn't resist him.

"It's not possible, it's a fact!" Bai Changxia's tone was excited, "Fu Jichen's speed is faster than I imagined. I thought there was still a grind between you. ”

"I'm with him, isn't it?"

"You've liked him before, and it's good to be together after so many things." I don't know why, when I said this, Bai Changxia's eyes were hot, and I wanted to cry a little.

She hopes that someone can be by Jia Nian's side, take care of her, give her support, and make her no longer lonely.

That person was Fu Jichen, and she thought it was very good.

Shen Jianian smiled, ended the call, and picked up the cat in his arms that was obviously much fatter: "Who said that I spent Chinese New Year's Eve alone, isn't this still you?" We've lived together. ”

The mobile phone rang again, and a call came in, Shen Jianian glanced at it, it was Pei Che calling.

Shen Jianian picked it up, and Pei Che's voice was still so warm: "Xiao Nian, I'm going back to China." ”

*

On the afternoon before Chinese New Year's Eve, at five o'clock, Pei Che drove to the community where she lived according to the address given by Shen Jianian.

Before going out, Shen Jianian fed the cat, took a hat and scarf, and when he went down, he met Ni Yiqiong, who he hadn't seen for a long time, in the elevator, wearing a black tight woolen skirt with a gray fur coat on the outside, and his wavy curls were pulled up with shark clips.

Shen Jiannian had already pressed the first floor, Ni Yiqiong didn't make any more moves, clasped her arms with both hands, carried a brown leather bag in the crook of her arm, glanced at her lightly, and pulled her face without greeting her.

The last time she saw Shen Jianian get into Fu Jichen's car, the man turned sideways and personally fastened her seat belt, kissed her in that position, and she pushed his face away.

Recalling that scene, Ni Yiqiong clenched her fists, thinking of herself on Shen Jianian's birthday, she was really a complete fool, and she was played around by Shen Jianian.

With a "ding", the elevator door opened.

Ni Yiqiong stepped on high-heeled boots and stepped out first.

Shen Jianian then went out, calling Pei Che as he went, asking him where he was.

Pei Che said that at the entrance of the community, he was doing visitor registration.

Shen Jianian quickened her pace and told him that she didn't need to register, she had already come out.

Pei Che waited for her outside the gate of the community, and a few minutes later, he saw Shen Jiannian trotting over, wearing a white down jacket and a gray plaid scarf around his neck, running too fast, and his beanie hat was crooked to the side.

Pei Che greeted her and looked at her, after more than three months, he was a little strange when he saw her again.

He stretched out his hand to help her fix the crooked hat, his thin face was full of smiles, he had prepared a lot of words on the way here, and he really met, but he didn't know how to speak.

After brewing for a while, the first thing Pei Che said was: "Is your body okay?" "Her health is not very good after the car accident, and she will get sick if she doesn't pay attention to it when it's cold, which is more difficult to recover than ordinary people.

Shen Jianian ran over, his breath was uneven, and his cheeks were red: "It's good." ”

Except for an illness not long after she moved in, everything else was fine, and she weighed four pounds the day before yesterday.

Pei Che opened the car door: "Let's talk in the car, my mother is waiting for us in the restaurant." ”

It was Zhou Ruo who wanted to return to China for the New Year, although her days abroad were peaceful and peaceful, she still missed home in her bones, and planned to find a time to go out to play after the New Year.

"Okay." Shen Jianian sat in the car.

At the same time, Fu Jichen's plane landed, and he only saw Qu Mo who came to pick him up at the exit of the airport, and did not see another person.

"What about Shen Jiannian?" Fu Jichen asked.

Qu Mo looked inexplicable: "Is Miss Shen here too?" ”

Song Fang, who was following behind Fu Jichen, lowered his eyes and didn't speak, it turned out that the boss thought that Shen Jianian would come to pick up the plane, so he would behave so happily when he got off the plane. He caught a glimpse of the curvature of the corners of the boss's mouth beside him, so obvious, he was clearly a person who did not show his emotions.

As a result, expectations turned into disappointment.

Fu Jichen took out his mobile phone from his pocket, turned it on, and looked at it several times, but did not find any missed calls and messages from Shen Jiannian.

He had sent her flight information before, didn't she understand what that meant?

Fu Jichen stuffed the phone back, there was no expression on his face, and he said in a faint voice: "Let's go." ”

Qu Mo and Song Fang looked at each other, and the two tacitly agreed.

Qu Mo didn't ask Fu Jichen where he went, and drove the car directly to the community where Shen Jiannian lived, and along the way, Fu Jichen had no other emotions on his face, as if he was frozen.

The car was parked in the garage, and Fu Jichen carried his suitcase into the elevator and went straight to the twenty-sixth floor.

After eight days, more than a week, although there was a phone call, it was far from relieving his thoughts.

He may be suffering from separation anxiety, and after more than a day away from Shen Jiannian, he will be cranky, worried that something will happen to her.

During the business trip, he not only called Shen Jianian, but also called Zheng Yi, and he would feel at ease when he learned that she was at home. This peace of mind didn't last long, and if he didn't hear from her every once in a while, he would fall into a new round of worry.

And so on and so forth.

The elevator door opened, Fu Jichen walked out and knocked on Shen Jianian's door, and the emotions of longing overflowed from his chest at this moment, looking forward to her expression when she opened the door.

However, there was no response from the house.

Fu Jichen found the spare key he had asked Shen Jianian for before, and opened the door, there was no one in the living room, and the ugly cat was entrenched on the sofa, baring its teeth at him, the trespasser.

"Shen Jianian?"

Fu Jichen called out and pushed open the bedroom door, but there was no figure of her inside.

He searched the guest room, kitchen and dining room, and finally came to a conclusion - Shen Jianian was not at home.
