Tang Duyi can always understand what he means quickly, so her heart is inexplicably a little flustered and nervous, she pursed her lips and whispered, "Okay, you go and change your clothes." ”

Jing Xiao didn't plan to move at the moment, her fingers ran down her cheeks, slid down to her lips, rubbing gently, her voice was low and hoarse, "Don't worry." ”

"Huh?" She narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, staring at him suspiciously.

Jing Xiao chuckled lowly, didn't explain anything, just hugged her for a while.

Then, he regained his usual composure and went to the cloakroom to change his clothes.

Before dinner, Tang Duyi received a greeting message from Yu Yuxi.

[How?] Did you coax that one in your house? 】

Tang Duyi pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, and quickly typed and replied, [You are embarrassed to ask, it's all your fault for talking nonsense, and sending me those photos, I'm about to be killed by you.] 】

A few seconds later, Yu Yuxi's news came again, [I didn't know he was there, but he even saw the photo? Is that jealous and angry? 】

Tang Duyi stared at the phone for a few seconds, and then thought back to Jing Xiao's reaction just now, he seemed to be really angry, but as for whether it was jealous, she was a little unsure for a while.

So she hesitated for a while before she typed a few words and sent them out, [He was quite unhappy anyway. 】

[It's over, then he won't even read our previous chat history, right?] 】

Thinking of what they had talked about before, Yu Yuxi felt a chill in her back.

Tang Duyi doesn't have the habit of keeping chat records, so there's nothing to worry about about this, today's incident is just an accident.

[Don't worry, those have been deleted a long time ago, and besides, he hasn't reached the point where he wants to check my chat history. 】

After that, they chatted intermittently until it was time to eat.

At night, Tang Duyi thought about it before going to bed, she should be glad that she was inconvenient these days, otherwise she might be cleaned up miserably tonight.

will never be like this moment, being embraced by Jing Xiao and spending a night of peace and quiet.

……

Soon it was Friday.

Tang Duyi packed up her things early, because Jing Xiao said that her grandmother was happy that she was going back, and most of the things were prepared for her, so she didn't need to bring too much.

They set off after lunch, and along the way, she was in a particularly nervous mood, and her palms were covered with cold sweat.

Jing Xiao saw that she looked very uneasy, so she comforted her: "You don't have to look like this, today is going home, don't be nervous." ”

"Hmm." She responded lightly, but she still couldn't relax.

Although she had met her grandparents and knew that they were very easy to get along with, this was the first time she had followed Jing Xiao home, and this situation was completely different from before.

In order to relieve her nervousness, Jing Xiao quickly found a topic and asked, "Gardenia, you graduated in June today, right?" After graduating, do you want to open a studio directly? ”

When talking about the future planning, Tang Duyi was interested.

She shook her head and replied, "No." ”

All the money she saved before was given to her father last time, and now, she lacks entrepreneurial capital, so in the short term, she has no plans to open a studio.

Although Jing Xiao is very rich, this studio is her first business after graduation, and she wants to rely on herself.

Jing Xiao naturally heard the meaning she wanted to express in her words, her eyes were unpredictable, but she quickly regained her calm, and continued to ask gently, "Then do you have any plans?" ”

Tang Duyi pursed her lips and pondered for a moment before replying, "Not yet." ”

"Hmm." Jing Xiao glanced at her thoughtfully, and then said, "If you need help, let me know." ”

She pursed her lips and muttered pretending to be displeased, "You have already helped me a lot, if I even want you to help me with work, then I am too wasteful." ”

Hearing this, Jing Xiao chuckled twice and said, "Then you should be all right, satisfy my desire to protect as a husband." ”

His tone was gentle, but it always sounded weird.

Tang Duyi blinked, withdrew his gaze, and did not speak again.

She doesn't deny that she has begun to rely on Jingxiao, but if she depends on everything, if this man gets bored one day, what can she do?

When a bad thought arises, there will be a lot of bad thoughts, one after another.

Seeing that she was suddenly silent, Jing Xiao glanced at her and frowned slightly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Huh? Oh. She suddenly came back to her senses and shook her head, "It's okay." ”

Although Jing Xiao didn't know what she was thinking, she could still vaguely guess that those things must be bad, so she chuckled: "Don't think nonsense in your little head, you can't do such a thing." ”

There was a hint of pampering in his tone, and Tang Duyi was in a trance when he listened.

After a few seconds, she retorted in a low voice, "I'm not thinking nonsense, and I'm not worrying about anything. ”

Jing Xiao smiled, reached out and rubbed her head, "Okay, you don't." ”

When the car was halfway up the mountain, Tang Duyi subconsciously raised his eyes and looked out the window.

I saw an antique building not far away, looking at it from afar, it was like a paradise, and it was beautiful.

She froze for a moment, it was so different from the suburban house she imagined that she had a sense of confusion.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that she suddenly lost her soul, Jing Xiao asked with concern.

Tang Duyi came back to his senses and immediately shook his head in denial, "It's nothing." ”

"It's almost there." He reminded.

"Oh." She was stunned in response, and the tension in her heart came out again.

After a while, the car stopped, and Jing Xiao got out of the car first.

Then he walked over to the co-pilot, opened the door, and stood there waiting for her to get out.

Tang Duyi was still doing psychological construction, so he didn't take a step forward.

Seeing that she was stunned, Jing Xiao stretched out her long arm to help her, and said jokingly: "This is grandparents' house, you have seen them all, is it possible, are you still afraid that they will eat you?" ”

Tang Duyi pulled the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, blushing slightly and said in disgust: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

After saying that, she got out of the car slowly.

Then, Jing Xiao took her hand and walked towards the courtyard.

As soon as they entered, Uncle Qi, the servant of the house, greeted them and greeted them, "Ah Xiao and Gardenia are back." ”

Uncle Qi is Aunt Man's wife, they have been in the Jing family for many years, and they can be regarded as growing up watching Jing Xiao.

"Hmm." Jing Xiao changed his usual indifference, responded with a smile on his face, and then introduced to Tang Duyi on the side, "This is Uncle Qi." ”

"Uncle Qi is good." She called softly and obediently, but her hands kept twisting the hem of her clothes, looking very restrained.

When Uncle Qi heard this, he nodded vigorously and smiled very kindly.

"Are grandparents at home?" Jing Xiao asked, took her hand and continued to walk inside.

"Those who are here are waiting in the living room, the old man was still talking just now, why haven't you and Gardenia arrived yet." Uncle Qi said after them.

"Really?" Jing Xiao smiled, took Tang Duyi's hand and sped up.

Tang Duyi was forced to follow him, but his heart was full of ups and downs.

The architecture here is typical of the Chinese style, with pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and rockeries.

Moreover, on the road she passed, she could see flowers and trees planted everywhere, all kinds of fragrant flowers in the garden, and the quiet fragrance of flowers lingering on the tip of her nose, which made her a little suspicious for a while, is this place real?

It is a bit shocking that the flowers that were supposed to bloom in early spring are blooming in this cold season.

Jing Xiao saw through her thoughts at a glance, and her deep voice sounded slowly, and she introduced: "There is a natural hot spring in the back mountain here, so the climate here is warmer than other places. ”

When Tang Duyi heard this, his eyes widened in surprise, "There is still a hot spring here?" ”

"Hmm." He bowed, "From the backyard, through a stone-paved road, you can go directly to the hot springs, I can show you there later." ”

After speaking, Jing Xiao led her to the main hall.

Mrs. Jing, who heard the movement, took the lead in welcoming her out of the house.

She was dressed plainly, but her spirit was very strong, her hair was neat and beautiful, her eyes were bright, and her face was kind and gentle.

"Gardenia, you're back." She said with a smile on her face, and then stepped forward to take Tang Duyi's hand, and asked with concern, "Are you tired all the way?" Go in first, sit down and rest. ”

"Grandma, I'm not tired." Tang Duyi replied politely, and her nervous heart dissipated the moment she saw her.

"Okay, let's go inside." After that, Mrs. Jing warmly greeted the two of them into the house.

Jing Xiao felt that he was left out, but he only smiled bitterly and followed in.

The furnishings in the living room are full of bookish atmosphere and are very warm.

Seeing them come in, Old Man Jing smiled and said, "You guys are back." ”

As he spoke, he gestured to the couch and motioned for them to sit.

Mrs. Jing kept holding Tang Duyi's hand and asked her to sit down next to her, while Jing Xiao sat on the side.

After that, the maid served tea and fruit snacks, and the few of them began to chat in the living room.

"Gardenia, this will be your home from now on, you don't have to be nervous, you can come whenever you want." Mrs. Jing kindly held Tang Duyi's hand, patted the back of her hand, and said with a smile.

Tang Duyi nodded with a light smile, and responded obediently, "Thank you, grandma, I know." ”

Old Man Jing locked his eyes on Jing Xiao's body, as if he had something to say, but he was embarrassed to speak because Tang Duyi was there.

So after a while, he made an excuse and went to the side hall with Jing Xiao.

"I've heard about that girl in the Qian family." After sitting down, Old Man Jing went straight to the point, his expression serious.

"Hmm." Jing Xiao replied lightly, but didn't say much.

He knew that since his grandfather moved here, he only liked to raise flowers and fish, and he had never cared about those things outside.

Old Man Jing frowned, and his tone became displeased, "What do you mean?" ”
