"sorry."
Xu Wan felt apologetic and was about to get up when the man's wrist gripped her waist first, stopping her from standing up.
The man asked in a pitiful tone, "What did my lips do to you? Why won't they give me a chance to heal?"
"No, I'm sorry..."
Xu Wan's face immediately turned bright red.
The overly intimate gestures made her even more flustered, and she almost dared not move.
Jiang Tingzhou felt immense pleasure at the woman's shy expression, but he abandoned his intention to continue watching and offered a solution: "After being bitten twice by you, giving me a good morning kiss isn't too much to ask, is it?"
"Good morning kiss?"
Xu Wan repeated haltingly.
She could feel the man's arms around her waist tightening. In order to get out of this awkward situation as soon as possible, she steeled herself and leaned down to kiss the man's lips lightly.
It was more of a light touch than a kiss.
Jiang Tingzhou kept his promise and moved his arm away, asking at the same time, "First kiss?"
Xu Wan shook her head. "No."
Jiang Tingzhou raised an eyebrow slightly, thinking that it wasn't strange for a young girl to be in a relationship in college, but he still felt a little regretful after hearing the negative answer.
She regretted asking the question, as it made her feel embarrassed.
The next second, he heard Xu Wan correct him: "The one last night should be called the first kiss."
Jiang Tingzhou smiled and stood up, asking, "Are you hungry? Let's go get breakfast."
He still remembered what the woman had said in her sleep last night.
Now that I've married him, I won't have to suffer like this anymore.
-
The two of them went to Yu Shuangshuang's house for a while during the day.
As evening approached, the two took a walk along the roadside.
Xu Wancai said, "Jiang Tingzhou, I need to go to court with Shuangshuang tomorrow to file a case, and then I have some personal matters to attend to..."
"Personal matters?"
“I…” Xu Wan hesitated for a moment, then told the truth, “I’m going to apply to visit my mother next week on Monday.”
Her mother has been in prison for ten years.
My mother has been behaving very well in prison these past few years, and her sentence has been getting reduced one after another. If nothing unexpected happens, she will be released in another year.
At that point, she would no longer be able to hide the fact that her mother was in jail.
Jiang Tingzhou also has the right to know.
As the lawyer for the case back then, Jiang Tingzhou naturally knew about Xu Wan's mother's imprisonment. "How often do you usually visit your mother?"
“I usually come about once every two months. Applications and visits can only be made on weekdays, so I always have to take time off work to come.”
I'll go with you next week.
"No need, only one person can go in for a prison visit."
Xu Wan was well aware of how others would view her when she came to visit him in prison.
Jiang Tingzhou has nothing to do with this matter and should not suffer such prejudice.
“Then I’ll wait outside.” Jiang Tingzhou tightened his grip on Xu Wan’s hand. “From now on, whenever you come to see Mother, I will accompany you as long as I have time.”
"No……"
"You've already forgotten what I said yesterday?"
Xu Wan was speechless after Jiang Tingzhou said just one sentence.
He could only manage a hesitant "okay".
On Monday morning, Xu Wan first went to the prison to apply for a visitation permit before accompanying Yu Shuangshuang to the court to file a case.
After all these matters were settled, Jiang Tingzhou drove her back to Beicheng.
When they arrived in Beicheng, it was lunchtime. The two of them had lunch first, and then Jiang Tingzhou took Xu Wan to Tianyuan Law Firm.
Just as the car pulled over to the side of the road, a taxi suddenly made a U-turn from the other side of the road and parked diagonally in front of their car.
The taxi driver got out of the car.
"Liu Xing!"
When Xu Wan saw this person, her scalp tingled.
Liu Xing walked to their car as if nothing had happened, knocked on the hood, and gave them a sly smile: "Hey, isn't this Wanmei? What a coincidence."
