Chapter 196, 195. A false destiny is a red thread, a true destiny is a steel wire.
Lin Yanwan sat on the steps by the river. Jiang Xia picked up a stone and threw it forcefully into the center of the river. A dull "thud" could be heard from afar.
"Baby, do you think there's any chance between them?" Jiang Xia asked, finding a tile and bending down to skip stones like he did when he was a child.
It's a pity we can't see them now. If it were daytime, we could definitely see that series of floating dots and the rippling water.
"I don't know." Lin Yanwan gently shook her head, resting her chin on her hand. "Given Yingying's personality, if she says she doesn't want to be in a relationship for the time being, then it's definitely true. I just don't know if we'll end up together in the future."
"I've been observing for a long time. I had Chen Yao sit next to Lao Wang, and Shen Ying secretly glanced at her several times. Given how you girls think, doesn't that mean she at least has some feelings for him?"
Jiang Xia stretched his wrists, walked back and sat down next to his wife, familiarly taking her hand and placing it in his lap.
“Yes. If you don’t have even the slightest bit of goodwill, you probably won’t care at all who’s sitting next to you.” Lin Yanwan sighed softly. “But that’s not the problem at all. This shallow goodwill will quickly disappear with distance and time.”
Jiang Xia felt a toothache when he thought about this. The main point was that the two of them were in different schools in the north and south. There were too many variables that could happen in four years of university. Not to mention that they were just friends, even if they were a couple, they would be vulnerable to being taken advantage of because of their long-distance relationship.
If you think about it this way, the probability that they are destined to be together but not to stay together is close to infinity.
"Forget it, let's not worry about it. Whether they're meant to be or not is up to fate. If they're not meant to be, no matter how much we do, they won't be together," Jiang Xia said after thinking for a moment.
The main reason he wanted to pair Wang Ming and Shen Ying together was because of the influence of his previous life. He was afraid that when Wang Ming went to university, the timelines would converge and he would be deceived by that green tea bitch from his previous life again.
But this time he's in the capital too. Even if the other party is a demon, he'll still kill her with three blows!
As for Shen Ying, alas.
Jiang Xia didn't care about Wang Ming's education or family background. She didn't see through those sophisticated green tea tactics, which shows that she is indeed a good girl. Perhaps she only has a good impression of Wang Ming for now, but it's not enough to develop into love.
"Okay, I won't worry about it anymore," Lin Yanwan said.
Jiang Xia turned to look at his wife. Under the moonlight, the river reflected shimmering waves, and her delicate face was graceful and beautiful, almost like a dream.
He kissed his wife tenderly on the cheek, and Lin Yanwan blushed slightly: "What are you doing?"
“I think we’re really destined for each other. It’s like the God of Love replaced the red thread with a steel wire. Anyway, you’re always with me, so I can’t pretend I didn’t see you,” Jiang Xia said with a soft laugh.
"Indeed, I was so annoyed back then, I always felt like you were working against me." Lin Yanwan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
"You dare bother me again? Now I'll show you why a husband is always a husband!"
He instantly pinned Lin Yanwan to the ground, gently taking her lips and savoring their sweetness.
"Honey, you still haven't answered me. How about we get married after we graduate from university?"
Her soft, panting breaths could be heard softly in the wind.
◇
A few minutes later, the two figures, which had overlapped, slowly separated. Lin Yanwan slapped his hand away in embarrassment and annoyance, then put her hands behind her back and fastened the hidden clasp of her bra.
What kind of person is this? Isn't kissing in public enough? All they do is touch!
"I'm going back," she hummed softly.
"Okay." Jiang Xia smiled. After all, people live for Naiko, and even if they are seventy or eighty years old, this original intention will never change.
"Still laughing! Take your hand over, and I'll bite you!" Lin Yanwan bared her teeth, looking like a little kitten.
"Then you can have it."
Jiang Xia then roughly covered her mouth with his hand, and she instinctively swallowed with muffled whimpers.
For some reason, she spat out her finger in embarrassment and annoyance, "You bad thing, you bad thing!!"
Don't even think about letting her... let her... she'll absolutely never agree!
So, pedestrians strolling along the river saw an interesting scene: a couple, with a very pretty girl chasing and hitting the boy.
Half an hour later, Jiang Xia finally dropped his wife off at the entrance of the residential compound.
"I'm not going upstairs unless you let me sleep in the bed," he said shamelessly.
Get out of my way!
Lin Yanwan kicked him in annoyance. Hadn't he taken advantage of her enough just now? Now he wanted to sleep with her. If she really let him into bed, it probably wouldn't be as simple as just touching him.
A man's mouth is a deceitful devil; what he says in bed, even the punctuation marks, are lies.
"Alright, I'll get going now."
"Stop walking, take a taxi home, you hear me?"
"Okay, housekeeper."
Lin Yanwan smiled and suddenly tiptoed to kiss him.
"You silly goose."
Watching Jiang Xia leave in a taxi, Lin Yanwan hummed a song as she slowly went upstairs to her home. The door was left slightly ajar.
Looking at her daughter who had returned home, Ji Wanqiu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Yanwan, why didn't you invite Xia Xia upstairs to sit for a while?"
"Mom, you're peeking again!" Lin Yanwan blushed, thinking to herself that it was so dark, she probably didn't see them kissing.
"No, I just went to the balcony to hang up the clothes. I heard you talking, so I looked down and saw you," Ji Wanqiu said with a smile. "So, how many people from your class are going to the teacher appreciation banquet tonight?"
"Almost all the students went."
"Isn't Xia in a different class from you? Why did he go too?"
"Yes, it's more convenient and saves trouble to hold the event together for several liberal arts classes."
"Oh, I see. That's good."
Ji Wanqiu nodded: "Alright, go take a shower and go to bed early after you're done. I still have a while."
"Mom, how's your Tom and Jerry merchandise design coming along?" Lin Yanwan suddenly asked.
"We have a few preliminary plans, but the details still need to be revised. We'll have to ask the creators of Tom and Jerry for a final decision," Ji Wanqiu said after thinking for a moment.
These are, after all, the first batch of merchandise, the ammunition to open the market, and they play a crucial role in whether Gaoyuan Toy Factory can be revived. There can be no carelessness whatsoever.
"Yes, yes! Go Mom! I believe you can do it!"
Lin Yanwan made a thumbs-up gesture, turned around and went back to her room to get clean pajamas to wash up. About half an hour later, she came out, still damp, and saw that the living room was empty, except for the lights still on in her parents' bedroom.
She thought for a moment, then took out five design drafts of the merchandise that Jiang Xia had given her from the drawer and slowly pushed open the bedroom door.
"Mom, Jiang Xia asked me to give this to you. I don't know if it will be of any use to you."
