CHAPTER 05 The Groom Who Attends the Funeral of the Bride.

Jiang Fei, do you remember when we first met?

It's not scorching, but it's just warm enough, and it allows that warmth to quickly spread through the fast-flowing blood to every part of the body. It's like a lazy winter afternoon, letting oneself bask in the sun, even the frozen depths of the heart are thawed by it. All I want is to find a place to rely on and quietly enjoy this warmth...

Lin Ming handed over the tissue, his slender fingers executing even the slightest movements with impeccable grace and elegance.

I have something to tell you.

Thursday, but it's only three days.

Except for, Shui Ningyan is still not a good enough son-in-law to comfort Shui's mother.

Trendy and luxurious bars, tranquil tea rooms, and diverse restaurants have added a modern touch to this rich and vibrant cultural heritage.

The music sound rang out again.

Clearly, everything has nothing to do with romantic relationships between men and women. However, for some unknown reason, Shui Ningyan always feels that there seems to be an excessive intimacy between the two, even too intimate.

Move to the penguin icon, clearly displaying the visitor's QQ name: Pinming Fenglin.

Perhaps, having experienced deep emotional setbacks, his inner world may possess a flexibility beyond the reach of ordinary people, and emotions that are difficult to touch.

She struggled fiercely, avoiding and dodging when he tried to kiss her, and suddenly realized that her lips and tongue seemed to be responding gently to Lin Ming's rhythm!

When the Republic of China was established in 1912, Sun Yat-sen was appointed as the interim president at the Presidential Palace in Nanjing. Currently, the 1912 in Nanjing refers to a group of buildings resembling those from the Republic of China era, built near the site of the former Presidential Palace. The buildings are mainly colored in shades of blue-gray and brick-red, with rough white brick seams outlining their structure. In a simple and even crude atmosphere, they silently showcase the profound cultural heritage of this ancient city.

The person he should kiss should not be her.

Jiang Fei thought for a moment and answered somewhat proudly, "Four months ago, on a Friday afternoon, when I was discussing specific promotional creative details with Longding Real Estate, you happened to be there. You were in charge of the overall planning for their next batch of properties."

She woke up from the dream, still in his embrace, raising her eyebrows and speaking in a very domineering tone while acting coquettishly towards him.

Has everything returned to normal?

Lin Ming did not answer, quietly watching her backlit figure standing there.

Her temperament is reserved, her social circle is quite narrow. Speaking of friends, there is only one person she can confide in, which is Jiang Fei. Where did all those dates come from?

Although that's what was said, Jiang Fei still sat up and rummaged through the drawer for a while before finally finding the cold medicine. Upon checking the production date, it had already expired, causing her to feel discouraged. While putting on her coat and leaving the room, she cursed herself, "Why did I have to encounter such a fool like you? You already look like Lin Daiyu, but you still don't know how to take care of yourself. Why did you have to go out and expose yourself to the wind?"

Open and take a look!

Water condensed smoke widened her eyes, turning them around in confusion. She faintly saw the silhouette of the person opposite her, with half-closed eyes, long eyelashes drooping low, and a focused expression that infected others with sincerity and deep affection...

Jiang Fei couldn't resist and bought medicine for Shui Ningyan, then busied herself with her own affairs.

Turned on the computer, QQ automatically logged in. When Shui Ningyan planned to shut it down, two messages popped up in the lower right corner as a reminder.

It's just an illusion.

Shui Ningyan felt a little uneasy, playing with the amethyst teddy bear hanging from her handbag, and said, "It's getting late today, so there won't be any traffic jams."

Why doesn't she dare to answer?

Perhaps the space in the car is too small, which is not suitable for single men and women to be alone together.

Long, long time passed, and then the phone rang again.

Water Nianyan deliberately lingered when getting off work, and only started packing up to go home when it was almost dark.

Ah!

After dinner, Jiang Fei was reminiscing about the unique taste and reasonable price of Shenzhen's fresh oysters and mantis shrimps, while missing the affordable osmanthus duck and duck blood vermicelli soup that are popular among the common people in Nanjing. She also watched the gift she brought back while sipping tea.

Jiang Fei was somewhat disappointed. He forced himself to take a few bites, but suddenly a very uncomfortable feeling emerged and grew stronger.

Lin Ming no longer insisted. He watched her stumble and push open the car door before rushing out. Then he said in a low voice, "I won't come to pick you up tomorrow morning."

She... passed away?

A tone of entitlement, a gentle smile, but impossible to refuse.

However, the situation where she was raging and acting aggressively in front of everyone was definitely the most ferocious performance she had ever shown over the years.

The next day, Shui Ningyan took a day off. Jiang Fei was originally going to accompany her to the hospital for an IV drip, but Shui Ningyan felt that taking two pills and resting for a day or two would be enough, and there was no need to go to the hospital. Shui's mother, on the other hand, stubbornly believed that doctors in big cities prioritize "exploiting patients" over treating illnesses, so it was better to stay at home.

The water vapor dissipated and sighed with relief, but then felt lost.

It was lost in Lin Ming's car. This was bought by Lin Ming as compensation for me. He said it was made of synthetic crystal.

"Lin Ming explained slowly: 'It's a classic French song. The general meaning is, my name is Ilena, I am a very ordinary girl, I also have happiness and sadness, and I have a life of joys and sorrows. I just want to find a simple love, a love that belongs to me. I long for the company of poetry and beautiful dreams at night, so I will ask for nothing else.'"

Should be a colleague on a business trip, right?

Lin Ming's profile picture is a bright red maple leaf. Shui Ningyan stared at the red maple leaf, unsure whether to reply or not for a long time, and finally told https://www.hetushucom.com that she was Shui Ningyan.

She rarely laughed so openly, waved to Lin Ming, and quickly ran towards the corridor.

Indeed... it looks like natural crystal.

Come back quickly, the dishes have all gone cold!

Water condensed smoke took over, took a look at the name of the medicine, felt depressed, "Is this for diarrhea?"

It's only early summer, but the weather is unexpectedly hot. The scorching heat makes the sweat on Shui Ningyan's face feel like it's burning. The sensation of sweat running down her back makes her avoid Lin Ming's gaze. She just wants to quickly leave this suffocating space.

No, I don't have!

Listening to music, reading a few posts, it is already late at night, and the restless mood also settles down as if in someone else's venting.

At this moment, Lin Ming stopped the car and smiled at her, "It's lyrics."

Does Lin Ming have a fiancée? Then what does he consider Jiang Fei to be? Has he been playing with her during their long relationship?

After seeing Jiang Fei's cough subside, he continued, "At that time, I stood outside the door and watched for a while, suddenly remembering my fiancée."

After all, wasting your boyfriend's money will be as painful as wasting your own money.

Can come out to meet Lin Ming, how could she let him see that she is a "bad" woman who occasionally smokes?

Lin Ming put his phone to his ear and said, "Why did you come back today? Oh, rest well! See you tomorrow!"

She really can't avoid it even if she wants to.

But it was just that one time, and Lin Ming actually witnessed it with his own eyes?

Hair flying in the wind, a crystal teddy bear charm shining on her handbag, bouncing along with her running, trailing behind in a soft, rosy hue.

Uneasily sent a text message to Jiang Fei, "When will you be back?"

Oh!

Jiang Fei replied: "Damn it, why are you bothering me so early! Don't worry, I will be back by Thursday at the latest. I will treat you to a meal and make you pay for what you did to Yuan Datou!"

The so-called "dark belly" is nothing more than using the gentlest and most harmless smile on the surface to conceal the sadness and loneliness deep in the heart.

I am on the car.

Jiang Fei, are you still online?

She won a complete victory in that war, and coupled with the advertisement designed and produced according to An Jiangfei's plan, the effect was very good. The manager invited her to dinner regardless of past grievances and established a long-term cooperative relationship with the creative media advertising agency she worked for.

Jiang Fei proudly pushed the messy luggage to the side and lay down on the bed next to Shui Ning, yawning and saying, "I'm off tomorrow, so I'll tidy up slowly. I'm exhausted from rushing to catch the plane today. Now that I'm full from eating, it's the perfect time to sleep!"

Really gentle, gentle like a fragile dream that shatters with a touch.

Kiss...

As she cooked dinner, Mother Shui hummed an old song from who knows what year, and didn't pay much attention to her daughter's minor cold.

Hanging up the phone decisively, the abrupt dial tone left Shui Ningyan startled for a while.

Shui Ning Yan tightly held onto her handbag, standing on the pale concrete pavement in the night. The night breeze blew away the sweat from her vest, taking away the warmth from her face and body, as well as the lingering kiss left by the man on her.

Shui Ning Yan couldn't make out any special features in these lyrics. Without thinking, she responded with a word, and then Lin Ming suddenly said a sentence.

Lin Ming did not answer, stirring the coffee seemed to be just an unconscious action.

But Shui Mama said, "I just think that this child is indecisive, with such a bad temper. Now is the time when we are most affectionate towards you, but you still often put on a sullen face. Who knows how you will treat me when you are old! So I refused him, saying that I am old, feeling unwell, and unable to climb mountains. We'll talk about it later."

Only a pair of eyes, originally bright and exceptional, are now shining like stars, dazzling and sparkling.

Actually, Zhou Yishui wanted to go to the company earlier on Monday to avoid Lin Ming again. But Lin Ming called her at six in the morning, "Are you going early today? Do you want me to pick you up earlier?"

It was indeed a light purple long skirt, with a bright but not flashy color, cute and likable. When Shui Ningyan put it on, Jiang Fei immediately laughed out loud and said, "Look how tasteful I am! I was originally going to help Lin Ming buy a tie, but as soon as I passed by the women's clothing section, I was immediately drawn to this! Look, how beautiful it is when worn!"

Ah ?.

Lin Ming stirred the coffee and asked with a smile, "Would you like another cup of red bean smoothie? They are also a specialty food of this restaurant, and should be good."

Calculating... Result: Dark-bellied! His dark-bellied nature always makes her unable to guess his true thoughts, so how can she smoothly enter his heart?

In the evening, Jiang Fei wore a set of sapphire blue dress, tied up her hair, dressed beautifully and charmingly, and drove her newly washed old Peugeot to meet Lin Ming.

Jiang Fei could only call out once more, lightly tapping his back.

Even without saying a word, the air filled with the presence of two people circulating, is nothing but ambiguity.

So, get in the car, I'll take you home.

If you are drinking water, you will definitely choke again.

After calculating, her physical condition has been recovering quite well recently.

Find back the lost love, perhaps can bury the sadness deep in memory.

Piercing through the thin mist, the melancholic bell rings, lingering for a long time, sounding even more desolate, permeating an ominous aura.

Wrong, definitely wrong!

Lin Ming smiled, but strangely it was no longer the kind of gentle smile that made people feel close, but rather a inexplicably melancholic and sad expression, quietly softening the contours of the eyes and eyebrows.

His appearance and demeanor are as gentle and calm as before, and he still greets people and handles things with the same warm and friendly smile. However, his eyes are elusive, not focusing on his tall and outstanding girlfriend, nor on whether the food is delicious.

So, why did you accept me?

Shui Ning Yan looked at Lin Ming in shock and didn't dare to speak for a moment.

Shui Ning Yan wanted to pretend not to see, but it was impossible.

Driving all the way wasn't fast, and in the small space, a few classic French old songs were always playing, with familiar and clear melodies as crystal clear as spring water, gently whispering through the hair by the ears.

It's okay even if there's traffic jam, I like it.
