I took a taxi out of the community and went to a small restaurant.
After eating a bowl of Chaos, I took a walk on the streets of this bustling city.
The streets with cars passing by are mixed with all kinds of sounds.
An Xiaonuan was wearing denim shorts and a simple white short-sleeved upper body. Her petite body was walking through the center of the street. She was holding a few skewers of barbecue in her hand and eating as she walked.
Just walking to a high-end wedding dress store, she stopped looking at the wedding dresses in the window.
I once took wedding photos.
But failed to get married.
Will there be another chance to wear it in the future?
She stood there for more than ten minutes before leaving.
Somehow, while walking, I arrived not far from Gu's Building.
There are also brightly lit offices in the building with lights on, and it's obvious that someone is working overtime.
Thinking that Gu Changqing might be very busy or working overtime, An Xiaonuan somehow went to the nearby snack shop and bought a bowl of dumplings before walking under the Gu's office building.
"What are you doing?!" the security guard stopped, "employees who are not members of our company are not allowed to come in and out at will."
"I'm your nanny for Mr. Gu's family, and I'm here to bring him supper."
The security guard sneered, "Our President Gu's nanny? Don't say you're not, even if you are, I have to report it to my superiors before I can go in. Our President Gu gets off work very early, who are you giving supper to?"
An Xiaonuan was stunned and smiled, "Oh, I understand."
The security guard's sarcastic voice came from behind, "If you want to use such a bad trick to get close to us, Mr. Gu, there isn't even a window!"
An Xiaonuan held the dumpling bag tightly with her hands and straightened her back. She walked for a long time before looking back.
Not long after she left, a car honked its horn at her. She took a closer look and saw that it was Lin Jiaoyang.
He got out of the car and walked to her side, "I almost didn't recognize you. I looked for you many times but didn't get in."
"It's very strict there. Isn't this over? There will be an assessment in three days, and then we will arrange a place to go." An Xiaonuan looked at him, "Where are you going?"
"I planned to go back, but suddenly I saw you. Let's go have a drink."
An Xiaonuan nodded and sat on the passenger seat, still holding the bowl of dumplings in his hand.
"Why don't you eat the dumplings you bought?"
An Xiaonuan pursed her lips and smiled, "I was about to go back to eat, and I just happened to see you. Have you eaten? If not, you can eat."
"I really haven't had dinner yet." He took it, held it in his hand, and ate it with gusto without asking anything.
When there was nothing left to eat, Lin Jiaoyang drank some soup, threw the bag out, and drove away.
The two drove to the parking lot of the bar, got out of the car, and walked side by side towards the door of the bar.
He found a quiet and inconspicuous corner to sit down, ordered two glasses of mixed wine, and sat across from each other.
I haven't seen him for a few months, and he seems like an old friend I haven't seen for a long time.
But both of them knew each other that they were not friends.
But they have a relationship that is more difficult to explain than friends.
"What's your relationship with Quan Hening?" Lin Jiaoyang asked straight to the point.
An Xiaonuan pondered for a moment, then she smiled and asked in the same tone as before, "Do you still want to use the role of my fiancé to meddle in other people's business?"
Lin Jiaoyang could not refuse, "Without my recognition, we would not have broken off the engagement at all. An Xiaonuan, as long as you agree to marry me now, I will marry you immediately."
"Lin Jiaoyang, what kind of international joke are you making?" An Xiaonuan clarified the facts, "We shouldn't have done it from the beginning. You forgot, we have no love at all, and I don't want to marry into your family. Your mother and I have no love at all.
It’s disharmonious.”
"If there is no love that can be cultivated later, if we are not in harmony with my mother, we can go out and live together. An Xiaonuan, you should be more content. Think about it, what a handsome and unrestrained person I am. For you, I will now take the initiative to send those to your door."
All the goods are turned away, for this reason, you have to be soft-hearted."
An Xiaonuan laughed, "Stop making trouble."
"Then tell me what your relationship is with Quan Hening. I don't believe what others say. I just want you to tell me the truth." Lin Jiaoyang stopped smiling and stared at her.
An Xiaonuan thought for a moment and said, "We have nothing to do with each other, we just know each other."
Lin Jiaoyang's smile returned and he said in an interview tone, "Miss An Xiaonuan, may I ask, what is your ideal partner? In other words, what kind of man do you want to marry?"
She cupped her chin and answered, "I want a man who can die for me, but I must love him. In the face of not loving me, no reason is a reason."
Lin Jiaoyang was stunned, because her last sentence just proved that she didn't love herself, so she didn't want to marry him.
"Then can you tell me, is there a man you love in your heart right now?"
An Xiaonuan picked up the goblet and drank it all in one gulp.
The reason why she was so bold was because at that moment, Gu Changqing's face appeared in her mind.
She didn't believe she would fall in love with him, probably because she gave him her love for the first time, so that's why she fell in love with him.
"No."
For some reason, Lin Jiaoyang reached out and rubbed her head for the first time, "The little girl has grown up."
An Xiaonuan was stunned and looked at him in disbelief, "Lin Jiaoyang, what were you doing just now? Were you touching my head?"
Lin Jiaoyang joked, "It's better than touching your vagina, right?"
An Xiaonuan's face turned red, "Sure enough, he has experienced hundreds of battles!"
There was tenderness in his eyes and he chuckled, "It is better to fight you once than to fight a hundred times."
"It's true that I have no good intentions."
He stretched out his hand and said, "Give me your phone."
She took out the phone and handed it to him. The moment she answered the phone, Lin Jiaoyang grabbed her hand and time froze.
An Xiaonuan drew back, and the remaining warmth still lingered on his fingertips.
Lin Jiaoyang used her number to dial his own number, and then handed her cell phone to her, "Don't turn it off in the future. You can't answer my calls."
"No!" An Xiaonuan glanced at him, "If I have something urgent to do or am very busy, I might not be able to answer the call."
Lin Jiaoyang smiled mischievously, "From now on, just like saying I'm sorry, if you don't kiss me once, I will forcefully kiss you once again when I see you. No matter where you are, I can find you. If you don't believe me, try it."
If you’re used to forcefully kissing you, I don’t mind taking it a step further—”
He raised his eyebrows, his meaning self-evident.
An Xiaonuan put the phone away and didn't take his words to heart at all, "We are clear about everything now. It doesn't matter anymore. I'll go back first."
Just as she was about to stand up, she stopped moving and her expression changed accordingly.
Because not far away, a figure appeared in her sight.
Because her back was facing the light, Lin Jiaoyang didn't notice it at all. Instead, he asked, "It doesn't matter, I have the final say. An Xiaonuan, I will not let you go easily after I identify you!"
