Jiang Chaoxi sighed helplessly: "I hope that even without me by your side, you can live well and be happy every day."
"I'm already unhappy if you're not by my side."
In just a few words, Lu Yanting had already sensed Jiang Chaoxi's liking for him.
He couldn't help hugging Jiang Chaoxi and said excitedly: "I know you don't love Song Tingyue. There is no need for you to be tied to him for the sake of the child. Believe me, I will be good to the child and love him as much as my own child."
Jiang Chaoxi pushed away Lu Yanting's hand holding her.
Lu Yanting looked at Jiang Chaoxi with a calm face, and his heart was beating like ten thousand drums: "Jiang Chaoxi?"
"I have lost interest in men and don't want to get married again. I think it's good to be alone. I can raise my child by myself and give him all my love."
These days, Jiang Chaoxi is becoming more and more rational.
I don’t want to let Lu Yanting influence my emotions anymore.
I don't want to worry about him rekindling his old relationship with Bai Xuening or falling in love with another woman at any time.
The feeling of worrying about gains and losses is very uncomfortable.
If he never loses his sight, she will always stay by his side and be his eyes.
Lu Yanting knew that he had hurt Jiang Chaoxi too deeply, causing her to lose interest in men and lose expectations for marriage.
In the final analysis, he failed her.
At this time, the elevator door opened.
Jiang Chaoxi walked out of the elevator without looking back and didn't want his cell phone.
Lu Yanting watched her disappear behind the door and couldn't recover for a long time.
The heart seems to have been hollowed out, leaving only the body.
…
At noon, Song Tingyue came back.
Through surveillance, Lu Yanting saw the restaurant's head chef entering Jiang Chaoxi's home with the waiter and ingredients, and cooking kaiseki for her on the spot.
The ingredients are top-quality blue flag tuna, top-quality foie gras, top-quality sea urchin, top-quality caviar and wagyu beef.
Despite the delicacies from the mountains and seas next door, Lu Yanting couldn't eat anything and could only numb himself with busy work.
At night.
Lu Yanting walked into the bathroom tiredly.
While taking a shower, he recalled Jiang Chaoxi rubbing his back.
Her little hands were very dexterous, and they traveled on his skin with neither lightness nor heavyness, which always made him feel comfortable.
After taking a bath, Lu Yanting wrapped himself in a bath towel and walked to the mirror.
Looking at myself in the mirror, I took a long breath.
He suddenly remembered that beautiful dream, and it felt too real.
Although he thought it was impossible, Lu Yanting still turned his back to see if there were any scratches on his back.
There are many scars on his body, but the scratches on his back are real.
And there were them on both sides. Lu Yanting took a closer look.
In addition to scratches, there are also crescent-shaped nail marks.
He had no idea when these traces appeared.
Don't even know who did it.
An immature idea flooded into Lu Yanting's mind.
Did that dream really happen?
Jiang Chaoxi had skin-to-skin contact with him.
Thinking of this, Lu Yanting's blood began to boil.
He even wanted to rush over immediately and ask for details.
But reason still prevailed.
Lu Yanting dialed Jiang Chaoxi's phone number.
It was so late, she might have gone to bed, but he didn't want to wait until tomorrow.
The call was answered quickly.
Jiang Chaoxi's lazy voice came over: "What's the matter?"
"Jiang Chaoxi, are we a real couple?"
"What's the meaning?"
Jiang Chaoxi was about to fall asleep when he was suddenly woken up by Lu Yanting's phone call. His mind was confused and not clear enough.
"I mean, did we...sleep?"
Lu Yanting's question made Jiang Chaoxian wake up instantly.
In the dead of night, she could only hear Lu Yanting's breathing and her own heartbeat.
"..."
Lu Yanting was anxious to know the answer: "Jiang Chaoxi, answer me, right?"
"Lu Yanting, if you are sick, go get it treated immediately. Don't talk about it all day long. You and I have divorced. It doesn't matter whether we slept together or not. Don't disturb my sleep."
Jiang Chaoxi hung up the phone without hesitation.
Worry that if you delay for a second, you will become soft-hearted.
She turned off her phone directly and pulled the quilt to cover her head.
I was about to fall asleep, but now I am completely sleepless.
It’s all Lu Yanting’s fault!
If he doesn't sleep, he won't be able to sleep either.
Early the next morning.
Lu Yanting opened his eyes and went to ring the doorbell of Jiang Chaoxi's house.
It was Song Tingyue who opened the door.
Song Tingyue was wearing pajamas, with a sleepy look on his face.
Looking at Lu Yanting outside the door, he frowned: "Is something wrong?"
"I'm looking for Jiang Chaoxi." Lu Yanting said and was about to walk in.
Song Tingyue immediately stood in front of him: "Xi Bao is still sleeping, don't disturb her."
Lu Yanting's steps stagnated: "I'll wait for her here."
"There's no point in waiting for her. Xibao doesn't want to see you. She has promised to go back to Kyoto with me. We will leave this afternoon."
Song Tingyue glanced at Lu Yanting angrily, with a look as disgusting as possible.
"Jiang Chaoxi is going back to Kyoto?"
Hearing this, Lu Yanting's boiling blood slowly cooled down.
Song Tingyue snorted coldly: "Kingto is Xibao's home. It's time for her to leave this sad place in Jiangcheng."
Jiangcheng is a sad place for Jiang Chaoxi.
And he was the source of her sadness.
Lu Yanting pursed his thin lips tightly, and it took him a while to find his voice: "How long will it take to go back?"
"I probably won't come to Jiangcheng again."
Song Tingyue returned to Kyoto this time and met with Jiang Mufeng.
Jiang Mufeng also thinks Jiang Chaoxi should return to Kyoto.
Kyoto is Song Tingyue's sphere of influence, and the Jiang family also has some status in Kyoto. She is the safest in Kyoto.
When Song Tingyue suggested returning to Kyoto, Jiang Chaoxi agreed without hesitation.
Considering Jiang Chaoxi's health, Song Tingyue directly asked the Song family's private plane to pick her up.
The private plane is also equipped with medical staff to monitor her physical condition at all times.
Jiang Chao only needs to bring a few valuables.
Other items will be packed and flown to Kyoto by dedicated personnel.
Lu Yanting felt empty and said, "I want to say goodbye to her in person."
"No, there's no need. If I don't say goodbye, I won't see you again." Song Tingyue waved his hand: "You can go and don't bother Xi Bao again."
Lu Yanting looked at the closed door of Jiang Chaoxi's room.
He had a strange premonition.
Jiang Chaoxi was actually behind the door, listening to him and Song Tingyue talking.
Lu Yanting shouted loudly at the door: "Jiang Chaoxi...goodbye!"
After shouting, he turned around and walked out dejectedly.
In the room, Jiang Chaoxi leaned against the wall and door, wanting to cry and laugh at the same time.
She said silently in her heart, Lu Yanting, goodbye!
See you again!
After lunch, Jiang Chaoxi packed his things in the room. In an hour, he would leave for the airport.
Suddenly, the balloon flying outside the window caught her attention.
At first there were only a few, then more and more, more and more, until the windows were blocked by balloons.
Jiang Chaoxi walked to the window and was shocked to find that there were words on the balloons.
I grabbed two at random, with the words "Xi, I love you!" and "Don't go!" written on them.
I grabbed another one and wrote: [Sorry!]
Colorful balloons with words handwritten with black markers.
Jiang Chaoxi recognized Lu Yanting's handwriting.
She lay on the window and saw the sky full of balloons.
With so many balloons, did he write all morning by himself?
