Jian Ning also recalled the scene last summer when she treated him to cold noodles at the night market.
She was a little embarrassed, "Don't I have no money?"
"Hmph! Even if you have money, you are still reluctant to treat me to delicious food."
"Who made you so annoying back then!"
Xiao Yan suddenly approached her, grinned and asked her, "What about now?"
"What now?"
"Do you still think I'm annoying now?"
"..." Jian Ning's ears turned slightly red and she lowered her eyes not to look at him, "I still hate it now!"
"Uh-huh, what you say means what you mean!"
"..." Speaking of last year, Jian Ning also remembered something. She put down her chopsticks and looked at Xiao Yan intently, "Honestly, did you find someone to pretend to be monitoring the alley at that time?"
"You guessed it."
"It's really you."
"It has to be me."
Xiao Yan took the credit with a proud look on his face, "Who else but the young master cares about your inhospitable place? You don't know, in order to prevent you from finding out that it was me who did it, I even installed it in many places in that village."
Turned on the street lights.
Ah... Come to think of it, I'm quite great, doing good deeds without leaving a name."
"..." Jian Ning was a little moved at first, but after hearing what he said, the feeling of being moved was completely gone.
She couldn't laugh or cry.
This person definitely belongs to the type who opens a dyeing studio if he only gets three points of color.
Although she went back to work in Wanwan a few days after the street lights were installed last year, she returned late from looking for work during those days. When she saw the two rows of street lights and surveillance cameras, she felt much more at ease.
"Speaking of which, I'm still depressed. At that time, I worked hard to pursue you. I took several years of annual leave together for you. I deliberately appeared in front of you every day to make my presence felt. In exchange for others, I was already moved to your heart.
I’m sending you a hug, but you are so cold-blooded and ruthless. No matter how I chase you, I will remain indifferent.”
Xiao Yan gave her a resentful look, "During that time, I was doubting my personality charm every day."
"..." "Tell me why you didn't even agree to be my girlfriend when I was chasing you so much!"
"Want to hear the truth?"
Xiao Yan nodded honestly.
Jian Ning clasped her fingers and said, "First, you have too much glorious history, which makes people doubt your sincerity!"
"Hey..." "Listen to me."
"..." Xiao Yan shut his mouth and listened to her carefully.
"Second, you also know that I am sensitive and have low self-esteem. Our two original families are so different that I have never thought about any development with you.
I am not good at anything else, but I am good at self-protection. If a relationship is full of unknowns, in order to avoid being hurt, it would be better not to start at all!"
"..." It's so rational that it makes people hate it.
"Is there any other reason?"
"Yes, I really didn't like you at that time. I kept stalking you all day long, like a cowhide plaster. I couldn't get rid of you. It was annoying to death!"
"..." Xiao Yan was so worried that he poked and poked with his chopsticks. The soup dumpling he poked caused the soup to splash everywhere. It was terrible to see.
Jian Ning moved the soup dumpling away with a look of pain on her face.
This thing was bought at a very expensive price, and it would be a shame to waste it like this.
Xiao Yan was unhappy, "Then why did you agree to be with me again?"
"Because... you gave me courage!"
"Well?"
"Although I am full of uncertainty about the future, you make me feel... I can give it a try. Even if I get injured in the future, it is still worth a try!"
"..." in one sentence.
Xiao Yan was instantly resurrected with full blood.
He grabbed Jian Ning's hand excitedly, his eyes red with emotion, "Little pepper!"
"Um?"
"Believe me, I won't let you get hurt.
I will do my best to love you and make you the happiest woman in the world!"
Jian Ning smiled and said nothing.
Xiao Yan was anxious, "You don't believe it?"
"No, I believe it!"
She believed in his sincerity at this moment.
But...she still doesn't have much confidence in their future.
She knew it in her heart.
Don't say anything else.
With Jiang Ning's pickiness, she would never be able to pass that test.
Of course Xiao Yan's feelings for her are real now, but what happens when the love period is over?
When the passion subsides, if he still doesn't get the blessing of his family, will he still be as determined as he is now?
She wasn't sure.
... Xiao Yan keenly noticed that Jian Ning's mood had dropped, but he didn't know why.
He looked at Jian Ning who kept eating cold skin and changed the subject, "You seem to like eating cold skin and cold noodles."
"Yeah! I quite like it."
Xiao Yan became interested, "Why?"
"The reason... it sounds like I'm trying to make a fool of myself, so I won't say it anymore."
"I'm curious!"
Xiao Yan said, "I want to know everything about your past, just tell me."
"..." Jian Ning hesitated before saying, "Before...when I was in high school, my studies in high school were heavy, I didn't have time to do part-time work, and I didn't have much money.
At that time, my weekly living expenses were very small, and I basically ate in the cafeteria every day.
Big pot meals in the cafeteria are very cheap. There are also many classmates who have good family conditions and relatively high living expenses, so they don't like to eat in the cafeteria.
At that time, when it was time for lunch, there were many food stalls at the school gate with lots and lots of delicious food.
In summer, there will be many sellers selling cold noodles and jelly, and many students will go there to eat.
Once I saved up money for a long time and bought a portion of Liangpi..." "You may think it's funny when you tell me... Anyway, I still remember the taste.
This time when I went home for the Chinese New Year, I made a special trip to the high school, and the stall selling cold skin was still there.
I specially bought one to try... I don't know if my memory has enhanced the taste, but when I tried to eat the cold skin again, it didn't taste the same as I remembered.
But! I still have a special affection for snacks such as cold noodles, pancakes, and fried skewers. Whenever I see them, I can’t help but want to buy one.”
Jian Ning tried her best to say these things in a relaxed and humorous tone.
Finished.
She shrugged and looked up, but still met Xiao Yan's loving eyes.
"..." She was helpless, "Look! I knew to tell you that your reaction was like this... It's not as miserable as you think... It's true! My life in high school was quite fulfilling and interesting. I lived on campus at that time,
I live in a dormitory with several girls. We go back to the dormitory every day to do homework together. When we encounter questions that we don’t understand, we discuss them together, which is lively.
By the way, I was still a legend in the school at that time."
"oh?"
Jian Ning looked proud, "Every time I take the exam, I am in the top three in my grade. I am that kid from other families that other parents call me!"
“Awesome!”
"Of course! I was a famous talented girl in the school back then!"
Jian Ning raised her chin, a little proud, "During the college entrance examination that year, I was among the top ten in our province! At that time, universities in Yuncheng and Beijing offered me olive branches. Later, because Yuncheng University was free of charge, I returned
There are many scholarships, so I came to Yuncheng."
"Fortunately I came to Yuncheng."
"Well?"
"Otherwise, where would I meet you in this huge sea of people?"
