Chapter 05 The World Only Has You and Me.
Aunt Feng said here, feeling a bit embarrassed, and smiled: "Look at me, clearly very happy, but still crying. Chengxi, please don't find Aunt Feng nagging. These words, Aunt Feng has been holding in her heart for too long. Today, once the topic is brought up, I can't stop." She looked at Chengxi, her eyes filled with joy and happiness, "Young Master Xia has always been alone, and he has never brought a girl here in all these years! The day I first saw you, I was so happy in my heart... Our Young Master Xia, finally has someone he likes, and finally has a family." "Young Master Xia has always been alone, and he has never brought a girl here in all these years! The day I first saw you, I was so happy in my heart... Our Young Master Xia, finally has someone he likes, and finally has a family. As the saying goes, endure hardships in youth and enjoy blessings in old age... It seems that Young Master Xia is fulfilling this old saying."
During dinner, as soon as he sat down and saw the dishes in front of him, his face darkened. He instructed Wu Jie, "Pour out all the dishes and make a few new ones."
Afterwards, Jiang Chengxi asked Sister Wu what had happened. Sister Wu naturally had no idea what had happened and only said that Mr. He never ate preserved eggs with tofu and that he would get drunk every year during these days.
Jiang Chengxi suddenly felt the sky and the earth shaking. Suddenly coming to his senses, He Peian had already pressed her onto the sofa. His face was extremely gloomy, as if a storm was approaching, and his voice sounded like gritted teeth: "Jiang Chengxi."
During the meal, He Peicheng went to the restroom. Wang Weiwei said, "I gave your box to He Peicheng, but he refused, saying it was brought back from Switzerland specifically for you. I am helpless, you will have to handle it yourself."
Jiang Chengxi went straight down the path to the building, ate her meal with a calm and contented heart. After finishing her meal and going upstairs, she paused for a moment as she walked towards the bedroom, and finally turned in the direction of the study to take a look. She saw the tray still sitting there, with the food almost burnt. Jiang Chengxi looked at the two study doors for a long time, and stayed in the bedroom for a long time. She didn't know why her heart couldn't calm down, as if something had happened. She felt restless, as if she couldn't sit or stand still. Jiang Chengxi looked at the two study doors for a long time, and stayed in the bedroom for a long time. She didn't know why her heart couldn't calm down, as if something had happened. She felt restless, as if she couldn't sit or stand still.
Until the car that He Peian was riding in started, Jiang Chengxi finally came to his senses from the state of being shocked: Oh, oh, oh! This guy really agreed to go with me!! Has the sun risen from the west?!
It's strange to say that this golden bracelet was fastened with a snap by Aunt Feng when she hooked both ends together. Aunt Feng exclaimed happily, "Look, how beautiful it looks on you. Come on, put on this ring...".
Wang Weiwei raised her watery eyes and glanced at Jiang Chengxi with infinite tenderness: "Jiang Chengxi, you treat He Peian like a blade of grass, but... you treat him worse than a dog's tail grass. But to be honest, don't mind me... Setting aside He Peian's background, just based on his appearance, there are countless women in this San Yuan City who are willing to throw themselves at him."
Hè Péichéng extremely gloomily lowered his eyes, then suddenly raised them again, staring at her intensely: "Do you love my elder brother?"
Uncle Hai. Jiang Chengxi frowned and stared at the string of Buddhist beads for a while, feeling a strange familiarity with the words "Uncle Hai", as if she had heard them somewhere before. But after thinking for a moment, she couldn't recall where.
Someone knocked on the door, and Sister Wu's voice came through: "Madam, sir is waiting for you in the dining room for breakfast."
That late night, He Peian stayed alone in the study until very late. When he entered the bedroom, Jiang Chengxi had already fallen asleep, with a section of her white, creamy arm exposed from under the blanket, and the golden bracelet on her wrist was still there. She didn't take it off.
He Peian's hand holding the porcelain cup paused for a moment, and after a while, he faintly exclaimed, "Oh".
She was like a punctured ball, instantly deflated! She pushed away the coffee in front of her and said, "So, tell me, what other ways are there for me to divorce him?"
Unwillingly, she had to squat down and break his fingers one by one. He was much stronger than her, and still had some residual consciousness. He felt someone was trying to take the bottle from him, so this action was like a tug-of-war. As soon as she broke one finger, he immediately clenched another. In the end, she even put her own index finger in, and was firmly held by He Peian's fingers.
During Aunt Feng's third month at the He family, the young master was born. Oh, he was so chubby, with little arms and legs like the lotus roots in our village pond, segmented and tender. It was so much fun! The old master cherished the young master so much... Every time he came, he would hold on and not let go, letting the young master ride high on his shoulders, which would last for a long time... Mr. He was also very good to Mrs. He, and with the adorable young master, they were truly a happy family at that time." Aunt Feng recalled the past, smiling gently with a loving expression.
She walked around in the kitchen and asked Wu Jie, who is in charge of the kitchen, and the chefs what dishes they prepared today. Wu Jie listed several dish names and mentioned that they simmered beef soup on low heat for two hours.
He Peian, who came out of the bathroom, stood alone on the balcony, quietly savoring the warmth between Shisujing and Jiangchengxi from beginning to end.
Actually, she couldn't help but wish that he wouldn't eat and starve to death. Then she could get rid of him without even having to think of a way. However, after this thought arose, she couldn't help but think of her own birthday every year, when her parents would surely cook a table full of delicious dishes, and her father would specially make longevity noodles. Her parents would bring the cake with lit candles to her and she would make a wish. Now, thinking back, it would warm her heart. Comparing it to the birthdays He Peian had over the years, Jiang Chengxi couldn't help but sigh. At this moment, she couldn't help but feel a little sorry for He Peian.
Jiang Chengxi stayed in the living room for a while, staring blankly at the gold bracelet on her wrist, feeling an indescribable emotion. She sighed and thought to herself that it was true that one is at the mercy of others when they are weak, and that people have always been like this for thousands of years.
Thinking of the young master's temperament, she held Jiang Chengxi's hand and said slowly, "Chengxi, the young master's temper is not very good sometimes, cold and strange, but in the end, he is also a child with a hard life, growing up without a mother, and his father is as good as none. Usually, you should be more caring and accommodating towards him. The young master is a stubborn person, he only listens to gentle words, and must be catered to! Living together is like this, you accommodate me, I accommodate you, and soon it will be a lifetime."
Watching TV like this, he endured for a long time. He Peian got up and went to the bathroom. Jiang Chengxi looked at the time and took out insulin from the refrigerator: "Mom, it's time for the injection. Should I inject it in the arm, leg, or belly?"
Jiang Chengxi: "Aunt Feng, that's not what I meant."
Su Jing patted her hand and said, "Silly child, mother is getting old, and her skin has become loose."
But apart from this method, there is currently no better solution.
After a moment, he called out softly again, "Mom..." Jiang Chengxi gazed at him quietly, and at that moment, she felt a subtle and strange sensation. Perhaps the He Peian in front of her was not as bad as she had imagined.
Mother asked like this, Jiang Chengxi nodded: "It is an item that Pei An's mother wore back then..."
He never brings a woman here? Is it true? Jiang Chengxi was slightly stunned, and then remembered the "good" record of this guy since getting married.
Jiang Chengxi naturally knew that he was asking a question he already knew the answer to, so he honestly replied, "Vivi and He Peicheng."
Jiang Chengxi smiled and said, "Where is Aunt Feng old? She is not old at all! Besides, this is very cheap. It was prepared by my father with traditional Chinese medicine. We still have a lot at home, so feel free to use it. You can take this box first, and I will bring you a few more boxes next time."
However, she didn't know that He Peian had been here for a while, and he almost heard the entire conversation between Feng Yi and her.
He prepared some gifts, and specially prepared a bouquet of budding flowers. Of course, it goes without saying that these must have been prepared by his assistants.
During the meal, He Peian accompanied Jiang's father to drink a few glasses of wine. Although his face was pale, his manners were still thoughtful. Mother Shi Sujing also smiled lightly all the time. After all, it was the first time her son-in-law came to have a meal at their home, even though this son-in-law... Let's not mention it. In the end, Shi Sujing also picked up a chopstick of food for He Peian.
Jiang Chengxi suddenly paused, then twisted his neck vigorously. He Peian actually called for "Mama". "Mama" is the dialect of Sanyuan, which means "mother". Although his speech was unclear, in such a quiet late night study, she could still hear clearly. Jiang Chengxi quietly looked at He Peian, only to see him frowning in his drunkenness, obviously very uneasy.
Aunt Feng picked up a dragon and phoenix gold bracelet, took Chengxi's hand, and put it on for her: "It's not a big deal. You must keep it and leave it to the young master in the future." The color of the bracelet is deep golden, although it is not heavy, but a dragon and phoenix bracelet is carved with simplicity and exquisiteness. At first glance, it is known to be an old object with some history.
Somehow, she blurted out, "This bracelet was given to me by Aunt Feng. She said it was my mother-in-law's old belonging." After speaking, she wished she could bite her own tongue! "I shouldn't have said anything, I shouldn't have said anything!"
She secretly vowed in her heart that she would push away any family responsibilities in the future. If forced, she would resolutely not bring this guy back home. Eating this kind of "nervous meal" too often would be fatal.
Jiang Chengxi is strange. If he doesn't like to eat, he doesn't have to. Besides, even if he doesn't want to see this dish, just take it away. Why waste and make it all over again?
Jiang Chengxi's hidden gold bracelet in his sleeve was noticed by Shi Su Jing during this commotion. She asked, "Is this bracelet given to you by the elders of the He family? It looks quite old."
In the air, there was a rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee. Sister Wu served He Peian's breakfast and quietly withdrew. His breakfast, as usual, consisted of eggs, cucumbers, and sandwiches, while Jiang Chengxi's breakfast was red dates and tremella. Somehow, even here, breakfast continued the nourishing style of home.
After the mother and daughter had a moment of intimacy, Jiang Chengxi deftly helped her mother inject insulin.
Many years later, Jiang Chengxi still remembered the situation when He Peian accompanied her home that day.
It turns out that this is the reason. Jiang Chengxi remembered that bowl of instant noodles and waved his hand with a smile, saying, "It's okay, it's okay, you can cook whatever you want." Since Jiang Chengxi said so, Wu Jie and the chef started working, anyway, it was the lady's order.
After all, she couldn't bear it. So, she went to the study and knocked on the door, raising her tone a bit: "He Peian, it's time for dinner." Naturally, there was no sound in the study. She knocked several times, but still no one responded. Could he be drunk? Jiang Chengxi's voice softened a bit: "He Peian, you've been in there all day! Today is your birthday. I'll ask the kitchen to cook longevity noodles for you, okay?"
In his eyes, there was anticipation. Jiang Chengxi looked at him and earnestly finished the sentence that had just been interrupted by him: "Pei Cheng, I have always regarded you as a friend, never had that kind of romantic affection, never!"
Jiang Chengxi feels that he absolutely will not coax He Peian, but he can try to go along with him on this point. After all, she dares not go against him.
Alas, at this moment, Jiang Chengxi realized that she had brought this upon herself and could not live with it. She wanted to cry but had no tears, and cursed herself bitterly in her heart: "Jiang Chengxi, you have eaten your fill and have nothing to do! You have meddled in other people's business! This is your own doing, and you deserve it! Serve you right! Let's see if you will still have so much to do next time!"
Jiang Chengxi gently called out, "Aunt Feng."
Actually, seeing this scene, Jiang Chengxi should feel delighted. It would be best if he drank like this every day. Maybe he would die soon. It would be so good. She wouldn't have to rack her brains to think of ways to make him bored and find ways to divorce him.
Wang Weiwei shrugged her shoulders and smiled indifferently, "Those are old account books from hundreds of years ago. I stopped caring a long time ago. Let them make a fuss, let them play, I am still growing up just fine. And I am growing up to be loved by everyone, blossoming like flowers, and causing car tires to burst. Sometimes, I even feel like I am the eighth wonder of the world!"
Two people found a coffee shop, each occupying a sofa. Although Xiao Jiu was in the lobby outside the private room, Jiang Chengxi still felt uneasy and deliberately lowered his voice: "What do you think of this approach?"
The voice of Xiang Nianping came over: "Mrs. He."
Hè Péi'ān is sleeping deeply, with long eyelashes lightly closed, and a childlike innocent and peaceful expression on his face. Perhaps only when he is asleep can people not feel afraid of him. Even on ordinary days, even if he looks at her with a smile, the occasional glimmer in his eyes will make her feel a chill.
Wait for a while before speaking? It's easy to say, but Jiang Chengxi feels it's hard to endure even for a day. Every time He Peian gets close to her, she feels stuffy and uncomfortable, finding it difficult to breathe. She doesn't know what's wrong with her, but in short, she feels uncomfortable, extremely uncomfortable, not to mention that private matter... As soon as the thought crosses her mind, she feels a rush of heat surging up.
He Peicheng smiled desolately, paused for a moment, and said, "However, Chengxi, this gift can no longer be given to anyone except you."
His heart, at that moment, suddenly quieted down.
He Peian turned around and sat down on the sofa by the French-style long window, while pulling his tie and giving orders, "Come here." Seeing him unbuttoning his shirt directly, the implication was obvious. Jiang Chengxi tightened the thin blanket and suddenly didn't know what to do.
Jiang Chengxi did not expect him to ask so abruptly, his lips slightly parted, and for a moment he was at a loss for words.
Shi Su Jing poured tea for He Pei An, and then instructed Jiang Chengxi to accompany He Pei An to sit in the living room and watch TV. As usual, their father Jiang Yang was cooking in the kitchen. Jiang Chengxi had been observing this guy, He Pei An, and found that he was sitting leisurely without any embarrassment, his face not turning red nor breathing heavily, while she herself felt restless sitting at home with her mother.
Jiang Chengxi shook his head and said, "No, no. My mother definitely won't do it, because I will dye your hair for you."
He Peian's lips were soft and not cold.
She still remembers the time when Wang Weiwei would often tell her that she wanted to exchange parents, even bringing her piggy bank to Jiang Chengxi, saying she wanted to exchange her own parents. Later, as she grew up and became more sensible, she understood why her parents argued and never mentioned it again.
Jiang Chengxi also didn't know whether he was saying that the osmanthus sticky rice cake was good or the tea was good. Just as she was completely confused, the person took off a string of ivory Buddhist beads from his hand and handed it to her: "Little girl, I don't eat other people's food for free. Since you treated me to your sticky rice cake, it's only fair that I give you this string of Buddhist beads as a token of appreciation, considering it as the cost of you treating me."
He Peicheng suddenly interrupted her and said, "No, you don't know my intentions. I..." He paused here and looked into the clear eyes of Jiang Chengxi, like dewdrops in a stream, "I was actually planning to propose to you, Jiang Chengxi."
Of course, it was not until much later that she learned that Preserved Egg with Tofu was a specialty dish of He Peian's mother. To avoid stirring up emotions, He Peian never ate it again after his mother passed away.
Jiang Chengxi suddenly remembered the past that Feng Yi had mentioned. He Peian's mother died in a serious car accident while celebrating his birthday with his family of three on the way.
Madam Feng finally accepted Jiang Chengxi's hand cream.
Jiang Chengxi looked at her with a displeased expression, but it was more out of concern. No matter how well Wang Weiwei tried to hide it, Jiang Chengxi knew deep down in Weiwei's heart, she still longed for the love of her parents and a harmonious family.
Jiang Chengxi remembered what his father had said, "Be more coaxing, be more deceitful." Jiang Chengxi didn't know how, but he held Aunt Feng's hand and gently replied, "Aunt Feng, don't worry, I can handle it." Even if it was just to reassure this kind-hearted lady.
After waiting for a long time, He Peian still did not arrive. Feng Yi pushed open the door with an old-fashioned carved wooden box.
He had the fragrance of a shower on him, obviously having taken a bath. However, he had no recollection of when he sobered up, and even less of himself taking a bath and sleeping next to her.
He Peian lightly asked, "Who did you have lunch with?"
Jiang Chengxi naturally sensed something was wrong: "What's going on?" Sister Wu helped explain, "Madam, I've been working in this household for several years and I've never seen Mr. He eat a bowl of noodles. Mr. He doesn't eat noodles."
You are like this: constantly checking his whereabouts and his phone. This is the most annoying thing for men about women. You search here and there every day, if he can tolerate it, he wouldn't be called He Peian anymore, but you just want to annoy him. When men get annoyed, they don't want to go home and will look for other women. If He Peian is entangled and tempted by other women, even if you refuse to divorce, this marriage is already doomed.
She rubbed her hair and slapped her forehead hard, saying, "Jiang Chengxi, you are so meddlesome, so meddlesome!" After speaking, she hesitated for a moment before finally getting up.
Aunt Feng stared blankly at her actions for a while before saying, "I'm an old lady, why would I need this? You keep it for yourself."
Jiang Chengxi doesn't know if he has heard about He Peian's childhood. Now, looking at him again, there is a faint sense of strangeness and peculiarity in his heart, as if he doesn't find him as detestable as before.
This meal started to worry from the moment Jiangyang received a call from his father, and Jiang Chengxi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he stepped out of his own home. She worried about He Peian all the time, afraid that he would turn against her parents, afraid that he would be disrespectful to her parents, and so on. To be honest, the phrase "sitting on pins and needles" cannot even begin to describe her anxiousness.
In Aunt Feng's eyes, tears gradually welled up: "Aunt Feng's hometown is deep in the mountains. In our family, there are four daughters and one son. I am the fourth daughter. When I was born, my father didn't even glance at me. He was so angry that he left the house immediately, shouting that another money-losing child was born. Due to poverty at home, when I was fourteen years old, I followed a villager from the same village to enter Sanyuan City. Fortunately, I was soon introduced by the villager to work as a maid in a wealthy family. Due to poverty at home, when I was fourteen years old, I followed a villager from the same village to enter Sanyuan City. Fortunately, I was soon introduced by the villager to work as a maid in a wealthy family."
Aunt Feng's words were soft and gentle, like warm water flowing gently over the heart. Although Aunt Feng didn't know how the two got married, she genuinely cared for He Peian from the bottom of her heart and sincerely hoped for their well-being.
She hesitated to speak: "Peicheng, I..."
Wang Weiwei suddenly stopped her movements and looked at her with a strange expression, saying, "Chengxi, you haven't noticed it until now, have you?"
He took a few steps and saw a slight bulge on the bed. He stopped his steps slowly, afraid of waking her up. From his perspective, he could see her lying on her side, sleeping soundly. Her face was white and tender, reminding him of the first lotus in summer. Her slightly trembling pink cheeks seemed like they could produce water with a pinch.
After He Peian entered, Jiang Chengxi noticed that his gaze paused for a few seconds on his wrist.
On the way back, He Peian sat beside her without knowing what he was thinking, with a gloomy expression and not saying a word. Jiang Chengxi naturally wouldn't provoke him, so she turned her head to look at the fleeting night scene outside the car window, thinking to herself: if he likes to pretend to be deep, let him pretend.
Jiang Chengxi naturally understood that this was an opportunity for her, so she straightforwardly pushed the box to him: "Pei Cheng, you should take back this gift."
Jiang Chengxi doesn't understand his meaning.
Wang Weiwei immediately noticed the bracelet on Jiang Chengxi's hand, grabbed her hand, and examined it for a moment. "Oh, Chengxi, where did you get this bracelet? It seems like the first time I've seen you wearing a gold bracelet, and it suits you quite well."
On that day, He Peian did not go out, but stayed in the study. It's unclear what happened, but the angry shouts from the phone in the study could be heard even through two closed doors.
After passing the first level, things became much smoother.
Jianggang Creek is unclear, and the first reaction is that this guy has encountered some trouble. She naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to bother He Peian. She thought it would be best for him to move to the study and never return to the bedroom.
At this moment, He Peian felt as if everything in his mind was gently touched by her hands and lips, and everything disappeared. In this world, only this beautiful scene remained, only her and him.
Shi Sujing "Hmm"ed and rolled up her sleeves. Jiang Chengxi suddenly touched her hand as if he had discovered a new continent and said, "Mom, have you lost weight recently?"
He Peian pushed open the bedroom door stealthily. The dazzling and pleasing sunlight faintly penetrated through the loosely drawn curtains. The whole room was quiet, without a sound.
Soon after, Sister Wu brought several dishes to the table again. This time, he didn't say anything and started to eat with his chopsticks. However, after only a few bites, he put down his chopsticks expressionlessly.
Aunt Feng wiped away her tears: "Madam is gone, young master is not eating, not drinking, not speaking. Mr. He should have taken better care of the young master. But after Mr. He beat Mrs. He to death, he stopped coming home. The young master is all alone every day, like an unwanted little cat... I see how pitiful the young master is, so I accompany him day and night, chattering and telling him some interesting stories from our mountain, to coax him to sleep... At that time, everyone thought Mr. He couldn't accept Mrs. He's death, so he didn't want to come back... I thought Mr. He would be fine after some time, but... " She paused here, took a long sigh.
Jiang Chengxi looked up at him puzzled. Xiang Nianping was a smart person who understood the doubt in her eyes and straightforwardly said, "Since I started following Mr. He, he has been like this every year."
She focused her attention and held her breath, not daring to move even a bit, afraid that she might accidentally wake him up.
Hé Péichéng interrupted her and said, "Chengxi, I went to Switzerland to treat my mother's malignant tumor. The medical team there is better, so I quickly contacted the hospital and flew there. A few days after arriving, my phone was stolen, and I lost all the numbers of my friends in China. Due to this and the chaos, I didn't contact you for a while..."
He Peian stared at the bowl of noodles for a long time. In fact, there was no need to guess. Who would have the courage to break into the entire house except for one person? But her courage has always been great. The first time she faced him, she dared to curse him for being mentally ill. Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth unconsciously lifted up.
Aunt Feng's fingers are thick and her skin is rough. These are a pair of hands that have been working hard all year round and have endured wind and frost!
Jiang Chengxi has been seen in both TV and novels, and the common situation is that the female lead puts contraceptive pills in vitamin tablets. However, in her opinion, there seems to be a big difference between contraceptive pills and vitamin tablets. Moreover, using this trick, it will eventually be discovered by the male lead. In case she is discovered by He Peian, just thinking about that scene makes Jiang Chengxi shudder uncontrollably.
The man stood up with a smile and said, "Keep it. What my Uncle Hai gives away is never taken back." When he reached the door, he stopped and turned around, saying, "Little girl, we have a long journey ahead of us. We'll meet again."
Aunt Feng smiled: "Silly child, why keep Aunt Feng's things? Aunt Feng told you to keep them, so keep them. These things originally belonged to your mother-in-law. Don't be fooled by their worn-out appearance, they are all good items."
The next day, Jiang Chengxi was awakened by something on her arm. She felt uncomfortable as she realized her wrist was rubbing against a hard object. Groggily opening her eyes, she found it was a gold bracelet. Feeling very tired, she closed her eyes and tried to take the bracelet off her wrist with one hand, but strangely, she couldn't get it off. After struggling with the gold bracelet for a long time, she finally fully woke herself up.
Jiang Chengxi took out a box of hand cream from his bag, squeezed it onto Aunt Feng's hand, and gently rubbed it for her, saying, "Aunt Feng, you can keep this box of hand cream and apply it before going to bed every day. Your hands will feel better."
Wang Weiwei looked up at the ceiling, clearly speechless: "You don't expect me to teach you this too, do you? Figure it out yourself. If all else fails, go ask the all-knowing Baidu." With that, Miss Wang walked away gracefully, wearing her ten-centimeter high heels.
She paused and said, "You know, my dad is just such a typical example. I have personally witnessed my mom searching through my dad's wallet, pockets, and checking his phone..."
He Peian grabbed her arm and pulled her onto his lap. Jiang Chengxi looked like a startled rabbit, staring at him with round eyes. The two were only inches apart, their breaths blending together.
She looked back for a while, only to see He Peian's gaze fixed on her wrist. When he saw her turn around, he casually withdrew his gaze without saying a word, still wearing his usual indifferent expression. Jiang Chengxi felt strange that she could actually sense a heavy sadness from his poker face. Was there something wrong with her eyes? But she really felt the sadness. Ah, it seemed that she must have been influenced by what Feng Yi said. Jiang Chengxi felt strange that she could actually sense a heavy sadness from his poker face. Was there something wrong with her eyes? But she really felt the sadness. Ah, it seemed that she must have been influenced by what Feng Yi said.
As the saying goes, ideals are abundant and fulfilling, while reality is harsh. But your reality is more tragic than others, it is bloody!
Jiang Chengxi hurriedly said, "Aunt Feng, let me keep this bracelet, and you must keep this ring. Consider it as a gift from your mother-in-law... a memento she left for you. Otherwise, Pei An will be upset if he finds out."
When the young master was five years old, his grandfather passed away. A year later, on the young master's birthday... Mr. and Mrs. He took the young master out to eat. It was supposed to be a good birthday, but who would have thought that a disaster would strike? Mrs. He got into a car accident on the way.
When Shi Sujing opened the door, her face was still pale, but much better than the day she got married. Perhaps her mother had gradually accepted the fact that she had married He Peian, and greeted them with a sentence: "Oh, you're here."
On this day, because I had made an appointment with Wang Weiwei to have Western food at noon, Jiang Chengxi accompanied He Peian to have breakfast and decided not to sleep. Instead, he went to the living room and played with Su Xiaoxiao for a long time.
He Peicheng took the ring and handed it to her. Jiang Chengxi saw the letters C & X clearly from the corner of her eye. She was quite surprised. She had only glanced at it hastily at first and hadn't paid much attention: "Peicheng, thank you very much for your kindness. But this gift is too precious, I can't accept it!" No wonder Wang Weiwei had asked her so strangely just now.
Aunt Feng thought for a moment and felt that this possibility was very likely given the young master's temperament. If she had indeed affected the relationship between the young couple, it would be a real shame. So, she reluctantly agreed and said, "Alright, I will put it away."
As the man was about to leave, he suddenly sniffed and exclaimed, "Wow, it smells so good! This is the fragrance of pig-stuffed osmanthus glutinous rice cake..." Without waiting for Jiang Chengxi's response, he went into the house and sat down confidently in front of her, saying, "Little girl, how about treating me to a piece?"
Forget it, if you can't remember, just let it go. Why waste brain cells for no reason? She picked up a small pastry, took a bite, it was soft and delicious indeed.
After speaking, he rushed out of the private room.
Message from Xiang Nianping: "During these few days every year, Mr. He always drinks to drown his sorrows. Mrs. He, please advise him well. The dead cannot be brought back to life, and so many years have already passed." He didn't say anything more and then took his leave.
Shi Sujing smiled and said, "Mom didn't lose weight."
Why is this sentence exactly the same as what her mother said? Jiang Chengxi sighed: "Ah, I really hope they come and stick it soon. Come on, come on, gods, Buddhas, regardless of the order, I beg you, let them come quickly, let them come more fiercely." As the saying goes, there are many gods to worship and they will be blessed by the gods. Jiang Chengxi has really reached the point where he sees gods and worships gods, and sees Buddhas and worships Buddhas.
After Young Master Xiao left, Mr. He dismissed everyone in that building. I also left the He family and found a job at a restaurant in the city where my family is. I have always been concerned about Young Master Xiao and would go back to that building every now and then to inquire. But the building became empty, with only two gatekeepers left. I didn't know them and every time I asked, they would just say they didn't know. And so, ten years passed, and we opened this restaurant. One day, Young Master Xiao suddenly appeared in front of me...
She belongs to him! Jiang Chengxi belongs to He Peian!
Jiang Chengxi Nature Cannot Be Taken: "Aunt Feng, since all of these are from my mother-in-law...if she left them to you, then you should keep them."
He said lightly, "I understand. I'm going to work now."
For some unknown reason, in a moment, Jiang Chengxi remembered the only kiss between her and Lu Yihang. It was when Lu Yihang sent her home, at the park corner, he waved goodbye to her, then suddenly turned back and kissed her on the lips while she was in a daze. He blushed and whispered, "Chengxi, I like you, I really like you."
Jiang Chengxi helplessly spread his hands, sighed, and thought to himself: Perhaps in the future, she and He Peicheng can no longer be friends.
Wang Weiwei could tell from her hesitant appearance that she didn't want to say much, so she changed the topic: "I ordered foie gras with truffle mushrooms. Since you're not picky, I took the liberty of ordering it for you too." When it comes to food, as long as it's delicious, Jiang Chengxi has always been open-minded and doesn't mind at all: "Sure, I have no problem with that."
No wonder when we met again, Wen Aiyi looked obviously haggard, it turned out that she had a serious illness. Jiang Chengxi couldn't respond and could only silently listen to him continue. But then he suddenly changed the subject and slowly said, "Chengxi, I'm not bad-looking either..." After a pause, he said, "Chengxi, have you really not liked me even a little bit all this time?"
Jiang Chengxi originally thought the plan was feasible, and even felt a bit of a headache about life. Naturally, he was in a good mood and happily ordered his favorite caramel macchiato after taking his seat. However, after just taking a few sips, he was struck hard by Wang Weiwei's bloody words.
Jiang Chengxi said, "What should I do? Such a valuable thing, how can I accept it?"
He kissed her neck heavily, his breath wet and hot, urgent and heavy, reminiscent of an angry lion...!... Will he bite her neck off?
Jiang Chengxi poured him a cup of tea: "This is made of glutinous rice. If you eat too much at once, it can easily cause intestinal blockage, which is not good for your health. Have a sip of tea and eat slowly."
He Peian suddenly looked up, and his deep gaze fell on her face. Jiang Chengxi's face turned red, and she remained silent, vaguely knowing why his eyes looked so strange. In her heart, she thought: "Of course, I have to call you mother-in-law. Should I call you 'your mother' instead? Even if I have that intention, I don't have the courage."
Jiang Chengxi held her face, examining it from left to right, and said, "Nonsense, my mother is clearly very young. When she stands next to me, she looks like my older sister. Who said she's old? I'll go beat him up!"
Proposal? It felt like five hundred crows "caw caw caw" flew over my head, a dark mass! Jiang Chengxi was startled by He Peicheng's words, staring at him in shock for a few seconds. Had she never developed to this extent with him before? Whatever behavior she had done in the past to give him this illusion, she must clarify it with him.
How can we make He Peian not go home? How can we make him divorce her?
Jiang Chengxi called out, "Mom." Unexpectedly, He Peian behind her remained silent for a few seconds, then also spoke up and called out, "Mom."
After she ate a piece of sugar cake, she has been waiting for He Peian to arrive. After a moment, someone pushed the door and entered. Seeing Jiang Chengxi, probably realizing that he had walked into the wrong room, he apologetically smiled faintly: "Sorry, I walked into the wrong room."
She has been cautious enough, slow enough, and careful enough, but she was still discovered by He Peian. He tilted his body to the side and muttered two words: "Mu Ma..."
Jiang Cheng turned his face away from the stream, unwilling to meet his gaze. He Peicheng reached out and swept the box in front of him onto the ground, saying coldly, "Jiang Cheng, I was wrong about you. Turns out you're no different from any other woman!"
Jiang Chengxi wrinkled his nose and acted coquettishly, saying, "Mom, you're so mean, how could you do this!"
Why did the word "wife" suddenly pop into Jiang Chengxi's mind?
Did I mishear it myself? Jiang Chengxi was a bit uncertain, so she repeated it in detail: "Dad said he wants us to go this Sunday." This time, she was prepared and kept her gaze firmly on He Peian.
Jiang Chengxi was stunned for a few seconds, then quickly handed over the flowers and said, "Mom, these were specially picked by Pei'an at the flower shop." With a smile on her face, Shi Su Jing graciously accepted the flowers, even more so when Jiang Yang pulled at the hem of her clothes from behind. Her expression softened a lot, and she even showed a hint of a smile, saying, "Come on in and have a seat."
The agreed time with Wang Weiwei was twelve o'clock. When she pushed open the door, she couldn't help but pause. Surprisingly, He Peicheng was sitting next to Wang Weiwei, and at this moment, his gaze had already fallen on her: "Chengxi."
Mountains are high and rivers are long, we will meet again in the future, it's not a martial arts film.
Jiang Chengxi remains silent. What are you saying? Are you saying that your elder brother He Peian forced me to marry him, and then you went to find your elder brother? And then He Peian came to find me again?
He Peicheng suddenly burst into laughter, with a tone that was unusually sharp: "It's still because of He Peian, Mr. He Peian from Sanyuan City. You women follow him, and whatever you want, you get, right? But have you ever thought that what he can give you, I can give you the same."
He Peicheng stared at her firmly, pressing closer step by step: "Do you love him?"
Jiang Chengxi suddenly looked up, only to see him finishing the coffee in his cup and about to put it down.
Over the next few days, He Peian's complexion was like the weather in San Yuan, covered in gloom and continuous rain.
On that evening, He Peian did not return to the bedroom. The next day, he still locked himself in the study and did not come out until evening.
These two pieces of jewelry were given to me by my wife when I was at the He family's place. I have kept them for years and have never worn them even once." Aunt Feng looked up, her eyes wrinkled with a gentle smile. "Aunt Feng is giving them to you as a gift from your mother-in-law who passed away many years ago. If your wife were still alive... " She choked up, "If your wife were still alive, I don't know how happy she would be!"
The waiter gently moved the high-backed chair aside, and Jiang Chengxi sat opposite them, saying, "Pei Cheng, hello."
Jiang Chengxi knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response from the study as if no one was there. She thought to herself, "I have already knocked on the door. If He Peian ignores me, what can I do?" So she returned to the living room calmly and confidently.
Jiang Chengxi frowned and pondered: "Even if I investigate his background, I still need He Peian to believe it! He knows very well that I am unwilling to marry him. If I go to investigate his background now, wouldn't it be too fake?" If He Peian can be easily deceived like this, then there wouldn't be ten of them left in this world.
He Peian looked at her thoughtfully for a while, then suddenly smiled, as if his mood had improved: "Come here, I want to kiss you."
One morning, Jiang Chengxi, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly remembered that she was not alone in this bedroom. As soon as this thought came to her mind, she woke up in a panic, looked around nervously, and found that it was already bright outside, but He Peian was not there. She breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed completely.
At the entrance of the study, the tray and the bowl of noodles were still there. She stood at the corner for a while, then returned to the room after a long time.
She had a sudden inspiration and ordered the chef to cook a bowl of beef noodle soup. The chef rubbed his hands and hesitated.
