Jiang Tingzhou hadn't expected Xu Wan to wake up. He paused in putting the things down and explained, "Su Ziyu recommended these to me. You go back to sleep."
"oh……"
Xu Wan was half asleep and didn't pursue the matter further.
Jiang Tingzhou washed up and returned to the bedside; Xu Wan was already asleep.
I thought nothing would happen that night.
Unexpectedly, just as he lay down, the woman suddenly seemed to sense something and snuggled up to hug him tightly.
Xu Wan likes to hug something while sleeping; when she sleeps in the second bedroom, she always hugs a bear.
She's too embarrassed to hug me now that I'm sleeping in the master bedroom.
As soon as Jiang Tingzhou lay down, she instinctively moved closer and hugged the man tightly, like hugging a teddy bear.
The woman's fingers were soft, and her hair and skin exuded the sweet scent of toiletries.
Hearing her hug him like that, Jiang Tingzhou's entire body stiffened instantly, as if a fire was burning inside him, rising slowly from his abdomen all the way to his mouth.
This caused him to have a dry mouth and throat.
He desperately wanted to wake the woman up so he could put what he had just learned to good use.
After much patience, and considering that tomorrow is a workday, I finally gave up.
The next day, Xu Wan was woken up by her alarm clock. When she opened her eyes, she saw the man sleeping soundly in her arms. Her mind went blank for a few seconds before she remembered what had happened the night before.
I didn't do anything, but she just took the initiative to hug me?
Could it be... that he was held by her all night?
Xu Wan slightly propped herself up, looking at the man's sleeping face.
I don't know if it's just my imagination, but the man looks particularly tired, and he even has dark circles under his eyes.
Xu Wan tiptoed out of bed without waking the man.
She didn't remember what time Jiang Tingzhou came back yesterday, and assumed that the man would not return until late at night.
She didn't wake Jiang Tingzhou when she went to work.
That afternoon, Xu Wan received a call from Jiang Tingzhou, who told her that he had to go on a business trip and would not be back until Saturday morning.
Saturday happens to be the anniversary of Huaguo University of Political Science and Law.
Jiang Tingzhou said he would go directly to the school's anniversary celebration after returning from his business trip.
On Friday, Gong Yanli's cousin Bai Xing contacted Xu Wan in advance to arrange to go to her house for makeup the next morning.
The school anniversary celebration starts at 2 p.m.
Bai Xing arrived at Xu Wan's house at 9 a.m.
Bai Xing already knows from Gong Yanli that Jiang Tingzhou did not reveal his identity to Xu Wan.
But when she arrived at Xu Wan's house and looked at the more than 100-square-meter house, her feelings were still somewhat complicated.
In her opinion, it was too unfair to let her wife live in such a place.
Xu Wan tried on the clothes first to make sure the size was right before Bai Xing started doing her makeup and styling.
While getting her makeup done, Bai Xing asked, "Xu Wan, what do you think of your husband, Jiang Tingzhou?"
“Him? He’s great.” Xu Wan looked at herself in the mirror and smiled. “Don’t you think I’m a good match for Jiang Tingzhou in terms of looks? Actually, all I can say is about appearance. My family is not well-off. Most guys would stay away from me if they knew about my family’s circumstances, but he not only didn’t mind, he also helped me solve a lot of problems.”
“But you have a very good academic background too. You are a graduate of China University of Political Science and Law,” Bai Xing said.
"But no matter what, Jiang Tingzhou is really a good person. I am very lucky to have met Jiang Tingzhou and to be able to marry him in my life."
Xu Wan spoke earnestly.
After a long silence, Bai Xing finally chose not to expose Jiang Tingzhou's identity.
Bai Xing finished Xu Wan's makeup and then left.
Although the school anniversary celebration started at 2 p.m., Xu Wan did not arrive that early. At the beginning, some school leaders and outstanding graduates gave speeches, and the interactive session took place in the school auditorium, which ordinary graduates could not enter.
The classmates arranged to meet at the school gate at four o'clock in the afternoon, take pictures together, catch up, and then go to eat.
Xu Wan has always had a good sense of time. Except for the time she overslept at a blind date party, she has almost never eaten.
When she drove to the school at 4 o'clock, the parking lot at the entrance was almost full. She searched for a long time before finding an empty space and parking her car there.
The WeChat classmate group became lively.
Everyone said they've already started taking photos at the school gate.
Xu Wan had just reached the school gate when she accidentally bumped into someone.
"sorry."
As Xu Wan apologized, she looked up and her expression froze slightly when she saw the man's face.
