75

To be precise, it is not a gift bought today.

They were cufflinks that I saw when I was buying gifts for my grandma and Mama Gu before returning to the old house. I thought they suited Gu Zhiyan very well, so I bought them. I just forgot to give them to him when I was at the old house.

Jian Yao lowered her eyes, looked at the black velvet box on the table, and nodded heavily.

Yes, that's it.

Even though Jian Yao had prepared psychological hints for herself, knowing that Gu Zhiyan was already on the way made her feel even more uncomfortable than when she didn't know it just now... she couldn't sit still.

Jian Yao holds her mobile phone and paces around the corridor outside.

The warm yellow light fell on her cold white skin, giving off a warm glow.

Think about the problems you may encounter later.

If he asked himself why he gave the gift, how should he answer?

What if I misunderstand that I am plotting against him?

How should she tactfully hint to him when she goes to bed at night that she can give him half of the bed?

Sending him gifts and giving him a bed is too easy for people to misunderstand, right?

Until footsteps came from the direction of the courtyard door, and Gu Zhiyan's tall figure came closer from a distance, all the assumptions in his mind suddenly disappeared.

She took a few steps forward and looked up at Gu Zhiyan.

"Are you back?"

Gu Zhiyan looked down at her and held her arm with one hand, "Slow down, your feet are not healed yet."

Jian Yao's heart trembled because of the hot body temperature of a man, and her pink ears A suspicious blush appeared on her lips.

She raised her ankle to show Gu Zhiyan, "It's actually fine."

She had applied medicated oil and anti-inflammatory medicine, and it was almost healed.

The night breeze blew by, and the faint aroma of wine mixed with the refreshing smell of Gu Zhiyan's body filled the nostrils.

It's light and not annoying.

She came closer, sniffed twice with the tip of her nose, and widened her eyes slightly, "You drank."

How could someone look exactly the same as usual after drinking? It was completely impossible to tell.

The wine is so good!

"Yes."

Gu Zhiyan released his hold on her arm and took her hand instead.

Jian Yao's hands are white and soft, as if they would slip through her fingers like quicksand if she exerts any force.

He only wrapped it lightly and walked towards the living room at her speed, "I will pay attention to it in the future."

Jian Yao followed him step by step, chasing his footsteps, and raised her eyes in confusion after hearing this, " What should you pay attention to?"

Gu Zhiyan had a smile on his lips and was in a good mood.

"Be careful not to drink as much as possible."

Jian Yao took Gu Zhiyan's hand up the steps and entered the living room, trying to say that she had no intention of controlling his drinking.

When socializing in a shopping mall, there is no reason not to drink.

Although with Gu Zhiyan's status, no one would dare to give him alcohol, but he still wanted to do it.

However, the people next to him had already seen the conspicuous black velvet box on the table.

Gu Zhiyan put down the food box in his hand and looked at it curiously.

"What is this?"

Jian Yao's eyes flickered twice, "To replenish your wedding gift!"

She explained in a somewhat covert manner, "Didn't you give me a bouquet of flowers on the day you received the certificate? This is a return gift."

Gu Zhiyan was so busy Look down at her.

The lights in the living room were much brighter than those in the courtyard. Only then did she realize that Gu Zhiyan was not completely invisible after drinking.

At least, there was a faint blush at the end of the cold eyes, and when those dark eyes looked at someone, they wanted to suck in all the three souls and seven souls of the person.

Afraid that Gu Zhiyan would ask again, she shook the hand held by him, "Why don't you open it and take a look?"

Meeting her expectant eyes, Gu Zhiyan let go of her hand, picked up the box and opened it.

The light pink diamond cufflinks are dazzling under the light, and the classic round design is simple and elegant.

Jian Yao tilted her head to look at him, with a smile in her bright eyes, "Doesn't it look good? It goes very well with our wedding rings."

They are all designed with platinum and pink diamonds.

Gu Zhiyan nodded, leaned slightly and looked at Jian Yao seriously, with a meaningful tone, "They match well."

"Then you know? Personal things like ties and cufflinks cannot be given away casually."

Jian Yao In a blink of an eye, you got a good deal and still act like a good boy?

She gestured and reached out to take it, "Then just give it back to me."

Gu Zhiyan raised his hand to avoid her movement, and the smile on his lips deepened, "There is no reason to take back something that has been given away."

He raised his hand smoothly. She smoothed the hair on Jian Yao's head and said, "I just want to tell you that if you give it to me, you can't give it to anyone else in the future."

Jian Yao covered her head that was messed up by Gu Zhiyan and decided to take back what she just said.

After drinking, Gu Zhiyan was much worse than usual!

Gu Zhiyan carefully put away the cufflinks, opened the food box, and took out the still warm soup cup inside.

"The bird's nest I brought here especially for you, be careful not to burn it."

Gu Zhiyan opened the lid, put in the spoon, and pushed it in front of Jian Yao.

Jian Yao felt a little sad when she looked at the layers of protection in the huge food box just for this small cup of bird's nest.

Jian Yao remembered that when she was in the orphanage, her classmates often showed off what delicious and fun things their parents brought them when they returned from work.

At that time, she was envious.

Later, she returned to Jian's house.

The pocket money they gave her was enough to buy any snacks and toys she wanted. However, no matter how many toys and snacks she bought, it could not make up for the missing feeling.

Until this moment, looking at the warm food box and bird's nest in front of her, Jian Yao finally understood.

What she looked forward to and envied when she was young was never snacks or toys.

It's the feeling of being remembered.

Jian Yao raised her hand and put the lid back on the soup cup, "Wait, I'll make some honey water for you first to relieve your hangover."

As if she was afraid that Gu Zhiyan would tease her again, she turned around after taking two steps. Explained, "This time, it's a gift of bird's nest."

Gu Zhiyan chuckled from his Adam's apple, and repeated Jian Yao's words, "Okay, a gift of bird's nest."

There was warm water in the kitchen, and Jian Yao dug out two spoons of honey. , rinse it with warm water, stir well, put it in front of Gu Zhiyan, and then start to enjoy your own bird's nest.

The sweet taste melts in the mouth, as if mint water has been added, without the greasy taste of ordinary desserts, and a bit refreshing.

Jian Yao eats seriously.

Gu Zhiyan took a sip of the honey water, and his lips were stained with water and glowed with moisture. "You came back late today, are you anxious about waiting?"

Jian Yao shook her head, "It hasn't been long, I'm just not used to it."

She was stunned for a moment after she said the words.

It has only been a few days, but have I already become accustomed to Gu Zhiyan's presence without even realizing it?

She pursed her lips and could already simulate Gu Zhiyan's tone in her mind.

[Oh ~ I'm not used to it! 】
