âAre you planning to stand guard here?â
A low and hoarse voice slowly sounded. Lin Qingqian turned around and saw Jiang Yanshen walking out in a thin shirt. She hurriedly went forward and pulled his hand into the house.
âI havenât seen the moon in a long time, so I wanted to take a few more glances.â
Jiang Yanshen held her small hand and was relieved to find that it wasnât cold.
âYou can look from inside the house too. What are you thinking about?â
Lin Qingqian bent down to take out her slippers from the shoe cabinet. When she was about to bend down to take the slippers, Jiang Yanshen had already squatted down. âLet meâ¦â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
She was stunned for a moment and did not reject Jiang Yanshenâs kindness.
âIâm not thinking about anything. I just feel that time passes very quickly.â Her red lips curled up slightly, and there was a hint of thought in her eyes. âLast winter, I thought that I might spend the rest of my life alone. I didnât expect to remarry you this year.â
Time passed quickly. Many things had happened between them in the past year.
Jiang Yanshen had changed drastically. He was no longer so arrogant and self-centered. He would take the time to accompany her, hug her and talk to her. He would light up the entire city for her when she became the target of ridicule of the entire city.
Jiang Yanshen stuffed her feet into her furry slippers. When he looked up at her, his black eyes were bright. âI didnât expect it either.â
In the past, he was also prepared to only watch her from afar for the rest of his lifeâ¦
Lin Qingqian lowered her head and kissed his lips. âAuntie is on vacation. What do you want to eat? Iâll make it.â
No matter what, it was Christmas. There was no Christmas feast, but they had to have supper together.
âNo need,â Jiang Yanshen replied.
Before Lin Qingqian could react, the doorbell rang and Jiang Yanshen opened the door.
âF*ck! Iâm freezing to death!â Jiang Yunshen was the first to run in, carrying a delivery box.
Lu Qinshang pulled Suisui in, followed by Gu Xici.
Lin Qingqianâs eyes lit up. âWhy are you all here?â
Although she had the image of a mature and steady company CEO outside, in front of Jiang Yanshen, her personality was still more or less as lively as before and she liked to liven things up.
Gu Xici brought in two bottles of wine and said with a smile, âAh Yan is afraid that youâll feel depressed. Coincidentally, we donât have anywhere to go, so we came over for a meal. Do you mind?â
âOf course not, â Lin Qingqian replied, her gaze landing on Suisui. âYour outfitâ¦â
She paused, her expression a little indescribable.
Suisui was wearing a red cotton-padded jacket that wrapped her from head to toe. She was also wearing a red hat on her head. Only her big black eyes were revealed around the scarf.
She pulled off her scarf and panted. âI donât want to eitherâ¦â
From the corner of her eye, she glanced at Lu Qinshang, who was putting things aside, and said in a low voice, âBig Brother forced me to wear it. He said it was warm and festive- What can I do?â
Lin Qingqian glanced at Lu Qinshangâs back. Previously, she was still worried that Lu Qinshang would not treat Suisui well. Now, it seemed that she was thinking too much.
Jiang Yunshenâs hands were red from the cold as he stuffed them into his arms and complained, âWhy canât we just let Lu Yuan and the others do this kind of thing? Why do I have to do it myself?â
âYou donât know how to wear gloves if you despise the cold?â Lin Qingqian poured a glass of hot water and handed it to him.
âHow can that do!â Jiang Yunshen took the cup to warm his hands and said righteously, âIâm so valiant and handsome. I wonât be handsome if I wear gloves.â
Lin Qingqian:
Forget it, so what if the brat at home was a little stupid? Could they sever ties?
Jiang Yanshen opened the takeaway food box and Lin Qingqian looked over curiously. âWhat is it?â
Jiang Yanshen opened the package, revealing a steaming roasted chicken. Lu Qinshang had brought packed food, and it was all hot.
Initially, Jiang Yanshen planned to do it himself, but there was not enough time. He made a portion and threw it into the trash can, so he could only call them to bring some food.
Lin Qingqian smelled the fragrance of the roasted chicken and immediately felt hungry. âI havenât eaten much all day. Now that I smell the fragrance, I suddenly feel very hungry.â
âGo wash your hands. Iâll go get the bowls and chopsticks.â Jiang Yanshen arranged gently. Now, he was no longer the Director Jiang who did not enter the kitchen.
Suisuiâs cotton blanket was taken off. Lu Qinshang threw it on the sofa and pulled her hand like he was pulling a child. âWash your hands obediently too.
Iâll snatch a roasted drumstick for you to eat later.â
âBig Brother, youâre so good.â Suisui looked at him with sparkling eyes filled with admiration.
Lin Qingqian:
Suddenly, she was not so hungry.
Everyone sat down, and Gu Xici poured three glasses of wine. Lin Qingqian blinked. âSuisui and Ah Yan canât drink, but why donât I have any
Gu Xiciâs hand that was putting down the wine bottle paused and he subconsciously looked at Jiang Yanshen.
Jiang Yanshen looked down at her. âYouâve been so tired recently, so donât drink. Itâs not good for your health.â
His gentle voice was filled with coaxing.
Lin Qingqian thought for a moment and agreed. âAlright, Iâll drink the fruit juice.â
Jiang Yanshen smiled and placed the poured fruit juice in front of her.
Everyone raised their glasses first. After putting down the cups, Lu Qinshang quickly took a drumstick and handed it to Suisui.
Jiang Yanshen unhurriedly took the other piece and placed it on Lin Qingqianâs plate.
Jiang Yunshen took a deep sip of wine and sighed. âThe drumsticks were all mine in the past. In the futureâ¦â
He looked at Lin Qingqian with all kinds of resentment, his heart turning sour.
Lin Qingqian couldnât help but find it funny. âItâs just a drumstick. If you want to eat it, Iâll give it to you.â
Just as she was about to give the drumstick to Jiang Yunshen, the man beside her stopped her with his chopsticks. âYou canât give it to him. He has better ones.â
Everyone at the table looked at him curiously.
Jiang Yanshen unhurriedly cut off the roasted chicken butt and placed it on
Jiang Yunshenâs plate.
. Jiang Yunshenâs face instantly darkened.
The others couldnât help but laugh.
âAre you still my biological brother?â Jiang Yunshen asked from the depths of his soul.
Jiang Yanshen replied expressionlessly, âWeâre not biological brothers to begin with. â
Jiang Yunshen: ââ¦â
Goodbye, I want to run away from home!! !
The dining table was filled with warmth and laughter because of Jiang
Yunshen.
The light and shadow were gentle, and everyoneâs faces were filled with smiles. Even the usually cold Jiang Yanshen couldnât help but smile as he stared at Lin Qingqian with a gentle gaze.
The few of them chatted as they ate. Suisui casually asked Lin Qingqian when she would return to Yu Mountain.
This yearâs Spring Festival will arrive very early. January was the new year. No matter how busy Lin Qingqian was, she had to return to Yu Mountain to celebrate the new year.
âIâm almost done with work this year. Thereâs nothing for me to do in the next few days. I might go back a few days in advance,â Lin Qingqian replied. Of course, she had another goal.
That was to tell Auntie about her remarriage with Jiang Yanshen.
At the thought that she was going back to Yu Mountain, Jiang Yanshen held her small hand reluctantly and wrapped it tightly.
Lin Qingqian looked up at him and said softly, âWeâll be able to see each other in a week at most.â
Jiang Yanshen didnât say anything, but he held her hand and kissed her fingers.
âHeavensâ¦â Jiang Yunshen couldnât help but roll his eyes. âCan you give us single dogs a way out!â
Lu Qinshang hurriedly covered Suisuiâs face. âItâs not suitable for children!â
Suisui pushed his hand away. âIâm an adult.â
âYou still have a child in your stomach,â Lu Qinshang said solemnly.
Suisui: â
What could a three-month-old child know?
Gu Xici only curled his lips, picked up the wine glass, and drank it in one gulp.
The gathering ended too late. The few of them stayed at Begonia Courtyard for the night before returning.
Everyone was asleep. Jiang Yanshen put on a black coat and chose a warm down jacket for Lin Qingqian. He led her to the vegetable field in the backyard.
Previously, when it snowed, the Auntie had made a shed for the vegetable field, so the vegetables in the vegetable field were not frozen. At this moment, they were still green and full of vitality.
âWhy did you bring me to the vegetable field in the middle of the night?â Lin Qingqian asked curiously.
Jiang Yanshen pulled her to a small shed and removed the brick that was pressing down on the thermal film. Other than a thin layer of soil, there was nothing else in the shed.
âYour Christmas gift.â Jiang Yanshen pointed at the small sign in the shed.
Lin Qingqian squatted down and saw the words on the small signâMerry Christmas.
She couldnât help but laugh. âWhat did you plant?â
âYouâll know when spring comes.â Jiang Yanshenâs warm palm landed on the top of her head, his eyes filled with love. âYou donât lack anything now, and I really canât think of anything to give you.â
In the past, when there was a festival, Lu Yuan would usually help him prepare a bouquet of flowers and a set of jewelry for her. Some were picked by him, and
some were recommended by the jewelry shopâ¦
At that time, he did not know that she did not like these things, nor did he know that he needed to please a girl with special things.
These were all things he had slowly learned after he lost her. It turned out that it would take so much effort to keep someone happy for a long time.
If it was in the past, he would definitely be disdainful, but the target was Qianqian, so he was willing to do this.
Lin Qingqian knew that he was deliberately leaving her hanging, so she did not ask further. She stood up and held his arm, saying in a light and pleasant voice, âLetâs take a walk. I havenât taken a walk with you in a long time.â
Jiang Yanshen held her slightly cold hand and placed it in his pocket. âDonât I have you?â
Her eyes were filled with trust and dependence.
Jiang Yanshen lowered his head and smiled. He pulled her along the path slowly.
The moonlight lengthened their figures and projected them on the ground. Gradually, they overlapped and fused into one.
In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of January. Lin Qingqian arranged the companyâs matters and packed her things to return to Yu Mountain.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yanshen had prepared it for her in advance. He had even prepared Auntieâs share. Other than Lin Qingqianâs clothes and skin care products, there were also two large boxes.
Lin Qingqian looked at the three large boxes and said worriedly, âEven if I carry one on each shoulder, I wonât be able to carry them home.â
Jiang Yanshen: âChen Mu will send you back. When Aunt asks, just say that you hired the driver.â
âThen wonât it be too troublesome for Chen Mu to come back again?â Although Chen Mu was a bodyguard, he also had a family. At this time, he should go home to accompany his family.
âThis is his job. Moreover, heâll fly straight back to his hometown after sending you back. It wonât delay anything.â Jiang Yanshen reached out and pinched her little face.. âWhy do you have to worry about everyone?â
