Jiang He's eyes widened slightly, and the corners of his mouth turned up, "Look at what you said, I didn't promise you to help mediate, nor did I confiscate your mine.
The supermarket has rooms for rent. Anyone who meets the requirements can move in. It's all formal procedures. Don't make me sound like a human trafficker."
Pei Wangnian stared at her indifferently. If it weren't for the sudden flood, he would have chased after her long ago.
Some time ago, Zhou Zongli went to Nanyang in person and wanted to send his daughter back to Zhiyuan Base. With the parents' decision, the reconciliation of the couple was a foregone conclusion.
Pei Wangnian was already waiting, but unexpectedly, Shuguang Supermarket showed up and disappeared with his wife the next day, and their whereabouts were unknown.
It's pure coincidence that I found myself here today.
Jiang He stared at him, as if they were participating in a competition where whoever blinked first would lose. When their eyes met, invisible sparks crackled.
After a stalemate of almost three minutes, Pei Wangnian felt that glaring was too childish and was the first to look away.
"Where is she?"
Jiang He shook his head gently. "This is the tenant's privacy. I have nothing to say."
Pei Wangnian's intuition told him that his wife must be in the supermarket.
Living here, there is no other entertainment activities except shopping in the supermarket.
The man twitched his lips and sneered, "Boss Jiang, even a dead man's mouth is not as tight as yours."
There is probably no other person in the world like her who is unmoved by temptation and not threatened by any force.
Jiang He just thought it was a compliment to himself, "Thank you, thank you."
Pei Wangnian glanced at her one last time, then turned around and walked towards the second floor of the supermarket.
Thinking of Zhou Tangyao who was watching a movie upstairs, Jiang He leaned back. Oh no, the supermarket was about to have a dramatic plot where she was chasing him while he was running away.
I want to watch and join in the fun!
Yes, she must go with him, so that if a fight breaks out, she can stop it in time.
Jiang He hooked his finger at the welcoming bear at the door, "Xiong, come over here and take over for a while. I'm going upstairs... to have a little cake."
"Yes, Master!"
The little bear has a happy face. He loves being a cashier so much and can interact with customers a lot!
…
…
On the second floor, Zhou Tangyao, who knew nothing about what was happening outside, had just finished watching a movie and went to a hot pot restaurant for lunch hand in hand with Shen Mo.
When ordering, the two discussed whether to have a shabu-shabu hotpot or a wild mushroom hotpot today.
A man's obscure and hoarse voice suddenly came from behind, "Yaoyao, come home with me."
The tone was obviously very gentle, but Zhou Tangyao shuddered all over when she heard it, and a chill ran down her spine to the top of her head.
She turned her head slowly, praying that it wasn't that madman.
However, the reality was not as she wished. The man standing at the door had a slender figure and a cold and deep face, and appeared in her nightmares countless times.
After moving to Shuguang Supermarket, Zhou Tangyao never had a dream at night again and almost completely forgot the person in front of her.
She subconsciously stepped back, her body leaning against the food counter, her fingers trembling uncontrollably.
"Shuguang Supermarket is my home, I'm not going anywhere!"
After such a long time, Pei Wangnian also realized that forcing her blindly would not only fail to narrow the distance between them, but would push her further away.
"Yaoyao, can we sit down and talk?"
Zhou Tangyao didn't want to meet him face to face and wanted to refuse, but she heard the man pleading in a low voice:
"Just talking, I promise I won't do anything else to you, just this once, okay?"
Before, Pei Wangnian knew that she was in the Nanyang base, but Yaoyao rejected him and refused to even meet her, let alone talk to her properly.
Zhou Tangyao was initially deceived by his pitiful appearance, and later learned a very painful lesson.
From then on, the famous saying "If you love a man, you will be unlucky for the rest of your life" was deeply engraved in her bones.
No matter how much the bastard pretends, she will never be soft-hearted again.
Zhou Tangyao stared at Pei Wangnian intently, "I can agree to your request, but you have to agree to one condition of mine."
"you say."
"This is the last time you come to see me. Never appear in front of me again."
Pei Wangnian looked at her with his deep black eyes, and felt as if a hand had fiercely cut open his chest, and his beating heart was churned into a bloody mess.
He forced a bitter smile, "Yaoyao, you are the only one who knows how to stab a knife into my heart."
Zhou Tangyao didn't want to recall the painful past over and over again. "This hot pot meal is just our way of saying goodbye, okay?"
Pei Wangnian's eyes turned red. He could feel that something was slipping away and he couldn't catch it no matter how hard he tried.
"Yaoyao, is it really impossible?"
Zhou Tangyao turned her face away, her eyes expressionless, "Between us, either we will never see each other again in this life, or I will die, or you will die.
If you don’t want to eat, I’ll leave first.”
Pei Wangnian hurried forward and subconsciously wanted to grab her hand, but the girl dodged it.
"Don't go, I promise."
Chen Mo didn't go up to be a light bulb. She ordered a single set meal and sat at the double table next to her.
Zhou Tangyao chose a wild mushroom hotpot, and the hotpot restaurant would not serve them tableware until it was cooked.
After the two of them sat down, Pei Wangnian's gaze lingered on her. She seemed to be a little fatter than last time. She must be living well here, and the stone in his heart fell to the ground.
"Yaoyao, I'm sorry. I was such a jerk in the past. I was so paranoid. I thought I was protecting you, but I didn't realize I hurt you so deeply.
But I swear, I have never treated you as a dispensable canary. You are the most important person to me. I am not afraid of anything except losing you.
If we could go back to the beginning and be a loving couple, I would do anything you asked me to do."
Listening to his true confession, Zhou Tangyao felt nothing.
Pei Wangnian was a lunatic. He disguised himself very well when they first met, but after a long time, he revealed his true face in front of her and almost drove her crazy.
When they first got together, she had feelings for Pei Wangnian. After all, this man was good-looking and treated her well in every way, which made it hard for her not to be moved.
However, the things that happened later completely wiped out the only feelings in her heart.
Zhou Tangyao looked at the steaming chicken soup bubbling in the pot and spoke seriously:
"I accept your apology, but I can't forgive you. The damage has been done and it can't be undone no matter what.
I only have one wish now, to stay in Shuguang Supermarket and live out the rest of my life in peace and quiet."
At the entrance of the hot pot restaurant, Jiang He was holding a piece of mille-feuille cake and looking at it with great interest when the system suddenly popped up.
