Chapter 280 Everyone at the table fell silent

Jiang Xia was asking the waiter what kind of tea they had when suddenly a young man came over and looked at her tenderly: "Xiao Xia."

After not seeing him for several months, Jiang Xia had changed a lot and he almost didn't recognize him.

Actually, I can’t tell how the appearance has changed, but it just looks more beautiful.

He just walked up and noticed her at first sight. Now many people in the restaurant were secretly looking at her.

Jiang Xia looked at the boy in front of him and was confused. Who is this?

She stood up calmly and gave a standard polite smile: "Long time no see."

Since we know each other, this sentence can never be wrong.

Jiang Xia took a look at the other person's features and found that he looked somewhat similar to Director Fang of the food factory. She roughly guessed who he was.

She first said to the waiter: "Chrysanthemum, thank you."

Zhou Chenglei had been staying up all night for two days, so it was just right for him to drink some chrysanthemum tea.

The waiter responded, made a note on a card, put it down, and was about to turn around and leave when a child rushed over. She dodged and bumped into Jiang Xia.

When Gu Jingxuan saw this, he quickly reached out to help Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia has already taken a step back.

He had no choice but to withdraw his hand: "Are you okay?"

The waiter also apologized.

"It's okay, it's okay." Jiang Xia waved his hand.

The waiter apologized again before leaving.

Gu Jingxuan looked at Jiang Xia with gentle eyes: "Are you here alone? My mother said you were working as a part-time translator for her factory, so I knew I would be able to see you."

As expected, he was Director Fang's son. Jiang Xia felt relieved. Thinking of what Jiang's mother had said, his tone became more polite and distant: "No, my husband came with me. He went to the bank across the street to do some work and will be back soon."

Gu Jingxuan heard her mention her lover so naturally, and a trace of bitterness rose in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He smiled gently and said, "How are you recently?"

Gu Jingxuan looked at Jiang Xia carefully, his tone gentle but with a hint of heartache.

He didn't understand why Uncle Jiang insisted on marrying Xiao Xia to Zhou Chenglei and moving her to the countryside.

Although breaking off the engagement is not a good idea, is it important for Xiao Xia to be happy throughout her life?

Now she has to work as a translator to earn money!

Doesn't Jiang know how hard it was for the educated youth who went to the countryside? In the past, those educated youth tried their best to prevent their children from going to the countryside, and those who went to the countryside also tried their best to return to the city.

It was not until the college entrance examination was resumed that the educated youth could return to the city by taking the exam.

Gu Jingxuan didn’t understand why Jiang’s father and mother were willing to marry her to Zhou Chenglei without considering himself!

Even if what his grandma said was unpleasant, Xiao Xia would live with him in the future, and she is not his grandma.

He felt bitter.

Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Very good."

Jiang Xia saw Zhou Chenglei walking over and she smiled: "My love is back!"

When Zhou Chenglei approached, he heard Jiang Xia's words. He quickened his pace, came to Jiang Xia and took a look at the boy in front of him.

Gu Jingxuan also looked at Zhou Chenglei.

The two people's eyes met in the air.

Two men.

One with sharp eyebrows, stern and cool features, and a restrained edge.

One has stars in his eyes, gentle as jade, and full of vigor and vitality.

Completely opposite temperament.

One of them looks tough and intimidating.

A young and handsome man, like a brother next door, making people feel warm and cheerful.

Jiang Xia is also at the prime of his life, full of youth.

Zhou Chenglei suddenly had the illusion that he looked like an uncle in front of them.

Jiang Xia smiled and pulled Zhou Chenglei's hand, introducing them to each other: "This is my wife Zhou Chenglei, and this is Gu Jingxuan, the son of Director Fang of the food factory."

With one move and one sentence, "My love", Zhou Chenglei won! Zhou Chenglei held Jiang Xia's hand in return and restrained his coldness: "Hello, please sit down! If you don't mind, let Xia Xia and I treat you to a meal. I heard Xia Xia and Jiang Dong mention you. Are you Xia Xia's classmate? Are you studying at Q University now?"

He retracted his gaze, put down his briefcase, pulled out the chair slightly, and helped Jiang Xia sit down.

Gu Jingxuan looked at the two people's intimate behavior, lowered his eyes, and smiled faintly: "It just so happens that I haven't eaten yet, so I'm sorry to bother you."

Jiang Xia smiled at Zhou Chenglei and said, "You remember it so clearly? Then what else did I say?"

Say more! She knows nothing!

Zhou Chenglei sat down next to Jiang Xia. "I will remember everything you said, everything you did, and the people around you. Didn't you two agree to go to Beijing to study together? You've always wanted to get into Q University, so you can ask classmate Gu if he has any study materials. It just so happens that you've finished reading all the books at home."

Gu Jingxuan glanced at Jiang Xia. Did Xiao Xia tell him about their original agreement? They...

A pot of chrysanthemum tea was brought over at this time, and the waiter prepared to pour a cup for each of them.

"I'll do it." Zhou Chenglei said.

Upon hearing this, the waiter put down the teapot and said politely, "Please enjoy your meal."

Zhou Chenglei stretched out his long arms, picked up the kettle, stood up, leaned forward, and poured tea for Gu Jingxuan opposite him.

When Zhou Chenglei leaned forward, Gu Jingxuan vaguely saw a red mark on his neck inside the collar and a shallow scratch on his arm.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

He is no longer a boy who knows nothing.

It's not like he doesn't know what this means.

"Thanks."

I could hardly say thank you.

"You're welcome. Thank you for taking care of Xia Xia and Jiang Dong at school."

Zhou Chenglei lowered his head and carefully used boiling hot tea to heat the tea set and tableware for Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia noticed that there was a slight sweat on his forehead, his collar was unbuttoned and his sleeves were rolled up, which was rare for him.

His collar was always buttoned to the top button.

But Jiang Xia was not surprised when he saw the sun was shining brightly on the street outside and a drop of sweat was running down his side.

And from this angle she couldn't see anything.

Jiang Xia took out a handkerchief and handed it to Zhou Chenglei: "Is it hot? Wipe the sweat off your face."

He’s a running back, of course he’s hot!

Zhou Chenglei took it, wiped it, and handed it back to Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia took it naturally.

When Gu Jingxuan saw Jiang Xia taking his sweat towel like that, the invisible intimacy between the two of them almost made him unable to sit still.

At this time Jiang Dong and Zhang Fuyan came over.

Jiang Dong asked in surprise: "Brother Gu, what a coincidence?"

He glanced at his sister and brother-in-law with a little concern.

Gu Jingxuan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled gently: "What a coincidence, you are here to be a translator as well?"

Gu Jingxuan went home first and then came here with his mother. He did not come with his classmates, so he didn’t know that Jiang Dong came with them.

"No, I'm just here to do odd jobs." Jiang Dong pulled out a chair for Zhang Fuyan.

Jiang Xia reached out and took the briefcase on the chair to make room for Zhang Fuyan, but considering the weight, she looked at Zhou Chenglei: Didn't you deposit the money?

Zhou Chenglei met Jiang Xia's eyes, took the briefcase and put it behind him: "There are too many people."

Jiang Xia looked at the bank across the street: Are there many people there? Why didn't she see them?

Jiang Dong called Zhang Fuyan: "Sister Xiaoyan, please sit here."

Zhang Fuyan sat down.

Then he sat down between Gu Jingxuan and Zhang Fuyan.

With Jiang Dong around, the atmosphere was finally less tense.

During the meal, Jiang Dong rushed to talk to Gu Jingxuan.

Zhou Chenglei was busy picking up food for Jiang Xia, and Jiang Xia was busy eating.

They exercised too much last night, so they got up late today and didn't have breakfast. Jiang Xia was already starving.

However, Gu Jingxuan looked at the two people who were behaving intimately, and suddenly said, "Xiao Xia doesn't like this kind of meatballs. There is tangerine peel in this meatball, and Xiao Xia has disliked the taste of tangerine peel since she was a child."

Everyone at the table fell silent.
