Chapter 20 Love Moon 020 Happy Quilt
Noticing that her posture was wrong, Xiao Zhiyan quickly walked over and asked, "Did you bump into something?"
He Chuyue quickly stood up and dodged his outstretched hand. Their eyes met, but she didn't see the look in Xiao Zhiyan's eyes. She just changed the subject: "I was taking Latte out for a walk, but who knew it would brush against your door? Did it disturb your sleep?"
He had made up his mind: "Don't bother me, I'm not asleep, I'll go with you."
"No......"
The leash in his hand was taken away, and Xiao Zhiyan squatted down and waved to Latte.
He Chuyue refused again, "It's so late, it would be too much of a fuss for the two of us to walk the dog, I'd better go by myself."
As she spoke, she tried to take the rope back, but couldn't pull it. Before he could say anything else, the other end suddenly exerted force, and He Chuyue staggered forward. She grabbed Xiao Zhiyan's elbow to steady herself.
The distinct scent of cedar instantly filled her nose, and she realized that the faint fragrance she smelled in the hotel that night was actually the scent of cedar.
They were so close at this moment that He Chuyue could seem to smell a hint of water vapor. Xiao Zhiyan must have just finished taking a shower.
Before she could speak, a cold voice rang out: "You also know it's late."
He Chuyue withdrew her hand that was pulling the rope, but her eyes did not move away.
Is he angry?
What are you angry about?
He Chuyue couldn't figure it out.
Is he still angry? !
This guy is so capable of making his own decisions, but he doesn't even explain when he's been wronged. He always acts like someone wants to kill him if he says one more word. There's a double quilt in the master bedroom where he sleeps alone, and he's still angry?
He Chuyue became angrier and angrier the more she thought about it, and she had no intention of holding it in. Just as she was about to speak, her shoulders sank and she raised her eyes.
"It's cold outside, put on your coat first."
"......" The fire on He Chuyue's head was extinguished by the clothes.
At eleven o'clock, the school area has been separated from the bustling north city and is unusually quiet. The two of them walked along the gravel road, with Latte walking slowly in front, as if he had not yet woken up.
The temperature dropped suddenly at night, and it was much colder than during the day. He Chuyue couldn't help but tuck herself into her coat and began to regret her sudden impulse.
"The chair in the entrance hall can be folded." Xiao Zhiyan suddenly said, "Isn't it too heavy?"
He Chuyue was confused, and after thinking for a few seconds, she finally understood what he was talking about.
oh.
He thought the chair was too heavy and she bumped into it because she didn't hold it up.
He looked at it and complained, "You didn't tell me it was foldable."
"I'm sorry I didn't show you around the house today. Let's do it tomorrow."
"Um."
As I continued walking, the wind in my ears seemed to get stronger.
Xiao Zhiyan said, "Is there anything uncomfortable in the room?"
He Chuyue shook her head and nodded: "Why does the quilt in the master bedroom smell like camphor wood?"
Xiao Zhiyan stopped and asked: "I've been drying it for a day, is there still a smell?"
He Chuyue: "Sunbathed...for a day?"
"The wedding quilt in the master bedroom was prepared by my aunt, so I changed the quilt cover. Because the three-piece set of the new house was completed together with the soft furnishings after decoration, it had a smell of camphor balls after being placed in the cabinet for a long time. I smelled it when I took it out and put it on after drying it for a day, but the sun was not very good that day."
He offered: "There is a convenience store at the entrance of the community. You can buy a new set of sheets and quilt covers there."
"Wait." The amount of information was too much for He Chuyue to digest. "My aunt even brought the wedding quilt. Did you know this a long time ago?"
“I only found out about it that night.”
"Then why do I know this now?"
He Chuyue felt abandoned. This was obviously her marriage, wasn't it? Why did Xiao Zhiyan know it two days earlier than her?
Xiao Zhiyan noticed her messy hair and lowered his eyes: "I guess your simple words made the two of them exclude you from the knowledge."
He Chuyue was speechless.
This is something Dai Wenchun would do.
On the day the two families met, they discussed their marriage. The elders on both sides asked the parties how they wanted to hold the wedding. He Chuyue even pointed out in a roundabout way that everything should be kept simple, implying that the wedding could be skipped. Immediately, Dai Wenchun told Qi Yan that He Chuyue liked a simple wedding dress style...
She should have been more careful.
Finally, she stared at the man in front of her with resentment.
Maybe because he had just taken a shower and blow-dried himself, Xiao Zhiyan's face was pale with a hint of pink, his hair fell softly in front of his forehead, and his jet-black eyelashes outlined his deep eyes. He was completely different from the aloof look he had when they first met.
I don’t know if it’s because they’ve been together too much recently, but He Chuyue has already forgotten his cold and aloof appearance, and is more content to bear it.
It seems that in this cooperation, she is only responsible for giving birth to the baby, but Xiao Zhiyan is responsible for much more.
Carrying her current roller coaster of emotions, focusing on her preferences, completing the requests made by her family, and even sending the cat away without hesitation because she is allergic to cats despite being reluctant.
While she was perfunctorily answering her aunt's questions about Xiao Zhiyan's taste preferences, the table in his house was filled with her favorite dishes.
In that villa, the only one who knew her taste was Xiao Zhiyan.
He must have told his family about her preferences long ago and arranged a time so that everyone would wait for her to come to his home as his wife and have dinner with his family today.
Now it seems that she thought this relationship was too simple.
As the cold air came in, He Chuyue's voice tightened: "Xiao Zhiyan, if you have something to say in the future, you should tell me directly, and don't tell others. Our cooperation relationship should be based on each other, understand?"
He understood her intentions and nodded: "I'll remember that."
In this case...
He Chuyue raised her head with her arms crossed, looking like she was looking for trouble: "Then let me ask you, if your mother wanted to give you a lot of money and asked you not to tell me, what would you do?"
Xiao Zhiyan affirmed: "She won't."
He Chuyue was stunned: "Who? Your mother? Why?"
"She would give you money if she had it, not me."
He Chuyue didn't believe it. Just as she was about to accuse him of making an excuse, she heard Xiao Zhiyan say, not jokingly, "She never gave me money."
"......It's already said if." She was dissatisfied.
Xiao Zhiyan: "Then I will give you the money and tell you about this."
He Chuyue pouted, still not satisfied, and rubbed her hands: "What if mom finds out about this and she blames me?"
Xiao Zhiyan didn't answer obediently, and pulled the man and the dog back.
He Chuyue struggled: "Xiao Zhiyan, you haven't answered me yet! Why are you walking back!"
Xiao Zhiyan tightened his palms and completely wrapped her cold hands. "Lawyer He, do we have to make the assumption that the probability of occurrence is zero in the cold wind?"
He Chuyue: "If I don't list them, how can I know whether you have listened to my words?"
Xiao Zhiyan: “…”
Entering the first floor, the door was closed, and the brief cold air still lingered. He Chuyue finally remembered to hug herself and shiver. The temperature of her two hands was one hot and one cold. She used the hot one to cover the cold one. The person next to her looked at her.
She explained: "This hand was warmed by your holding just now, and this hand is still cold. I will balance it like this."
As she spoke, He Chuyue extended her hand directly to him.
Xiao Zhiyan's gaze moved from her red nose to her fair hands. Under his gaze, he raised his hand and held hers.
The piercing warmth spread quickly, and He Chuyue looked at him with a stiff tongue.
Xiao Zhiyan held her hand and put it in his pocket, then looked at her calmly and said calmly, "Is this better?"
"Um."
He Chuyue turned her face away and found that it was not just her hands that were hot.
The fingers on her palms curled up, and she was reluctant to take back the warmth: "I wanted to wear a scarf when I came out, but I forgot. Is this a sign of pregnancy?"
She felt a little resentful: "What if I lose this election?"
"No." He squeezed her hand and said in a gentler voice, "You will definitely win the election."
"You know it again." He Chuyue's emotions came and went quickly recently. She didn't take it seriously and just thought that he was good at comforting people.
Thinking of how enthusiastic Xiao Sheng and Qi Yan were towards her today, she asked, "Were your family members not shocked when you told them that you had a girlfriend?"
Xiao Zhiyan: “Shocked.”
He Chuyue: "Then I didn't ask you?"
She remembered that when they first met, Xiao's parents did not ask too much about her background and obviously believed her story.
Xiao Zhiyan: "I said I had a crush on you when I was in college."
He Chuyue's tongue flashed.
The latter explained: "Excuse."
"......"
She swallowed and silently calmed the strange feeling in her heart, "Next time, don't say so much in front of my aunt."
He had no objection, "Okay."
The elevator door was already open, and she stepped in first, noticing a flash of silver.
"You put it on?"
Her middle finger was wearing a Möbius strip exactly the same as hers, which shone brightly in the light but was not dazzling. Looking closely at the ring, she found that it was much wider than hers, but surprisingly fit her perfectly.
"But you should wear it on your ring finger. The middle finger is where engaged people wear it, right?"
He glanced over her empty fingers, "Oh."
He Chuyue showed him the results of her search, "I'm right."
Xiao Zhiyan moved his fingers, "Then help me change it."
"I......"
The hand that had touched the fingers suddenly loosened. He Chuyue felt that it was not appropriate. Xiao Zhiyan added: "I'm still holding the latte. Thank you, partner, for helping me change positions."
The familiar words appeared again, coupled with his businesslike tone, He Chuyue felt that he did it on purpose.
I guess only Xiao Zhiyan could do something ambiguous in a serious manner.
She coughed, but still reached out to take off the ring.
Xiao Zhiyan's fingers were much thicker than hers, and they were well-proportioned, slender, and fair-skinned. She held them gently, letting his warmth pass through and completely dispel the coldness on her fingertips.
The platinum ring slowly passed through the center, like some kind of ongoing ritual, making people's heart beat faster unconsciously.
He Chuyue didn't want to wear it anymore. She was about to leave when she saw that she had almost reached the end of the floor, but her hand was held back.
She met those black pupils.
"and yours?"
The distance was too close, and she looked away in panic: "I... I'm not used to it, give it--"
Xiao Zhiyan approached, "Throw it away?"
He Chuyue: "How is that possible? I'm not used to wearing a ring, so I took it off."
Seeing that people didn't believe her, He Chuyue explained the whole story, and Xiao Zhiyan then distanced himself from her.
"Then I'll help you put it on too?"
He Chuyue nodded, looked at Xiao Zhiyan who was standing against the light, and said hesitantly, "Okay."
"Hey." She pulled him back, "Do you still have single quilts at home? Wedding quilts are for two people to cover themselves with at a wedding. It would be weird for me to cover myself with them."
He laughed grimly, "Yes, I'll find it for you."
After walking out of the elevator, Xiao Zhiyan suddenly turned around.
"The first month."
He Chuyue's eyes were still on the back of his straight coat, but now they moved to his broad shoulders: "Hmm?"
The corridor was quiet, the lights above dimming due to the silence. The moonlight poured in through the window, illuminating one side of the corridor, just enough for the two people standing there to see each other clearly.
He Chuyue looked into his eyes clearly, and his voice sounded like a deep-water torpedo.
“We can actually build it together.”
