“I can’t go. Ding Xinyu’s case has its second trial on the 25th.” Xu Wan comforted him, “We Chinese can skip Western holidays, but we can celebrate the New Year together.”
She had no idea what a maritime auction was.
I have no idea what items in the auction are related to me.
She completely assumed the man was discussing some work over there and didn't want to miss Christmas with her.
Jiang Tingzhou participated in the maritime auction this time specifically to bid for that pink diamond.
Moreover, they were determined to succeed.
He had originally intended to hand the gem to Xu Wan on the spot, but now it seems that his plan is going to fall through.
“Okay, I have another job to discuss after this, I’ll probably be back around the 28th.” Jiang Tingzhou lifted the woman’s long hair. “When I get back, we’ll celebrate the New Year together.”
"good."
Xu Wan nodded earnestly.
At this moment, Jiang Tingzhou was already planning in his mind how he should give the diamond ring to Xu Wan.
Both of them had just taken a shower, and the scent of their shower gel mingled together.
The man lifted a strand of the woman's long hair and kissed it little by little from the ends, finally landing the kiss on her lips.
His fingertips, slightly calloused, caressed the fabric of the woman's pajamas.
Light snow began to fall from the sky outside the window.
The large floor-to-ceiling windows kept out the chill, and the temperature in the room gradually rose, becoming more intimate.
Xu Wan didn't get up until late the next morning.
It snowed all night yesterday.
When I woke up, everything outside the window seemed like a completely different world from yesterday!
"It's snowing."
Xu Wan excitedly walked out of the bedroom and looked out through the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room.
She wasn't unfamiliar with snowfall in the northern part of the city; it was just the first time she had seen it from this height. The entire city was covered in a blanket of white, a sight she had never witnessed before.
Jiang Tingzhou came out of the study and hugged the woman from behind. "You like snow? When do you have time? Let's go to Finland together, find a clear night, ride a reindeer-drawn sleigh, and see the Northern Lights."
When is the best time to go?
"From December to January of next year."
This time is now.
Jiang Tingzhou boarded the ship in Europe to attend the maritime auction. If Xu Wan also goes, they can disembark and watch the aurora together.
Seeing the disappointment in the woman's eyes, Jiang Tingzhou suggested, "Maybe we can watch the aurora borealis to ring in the new year."
Do you have time?
“If it’s just two or three days, I can go, though it might be a bit tiring.” Jiang Tingzhou paused and said, “But we’ll go by private jet, so it won’t be too strenuous.”
"I'm not afraid of the journey." Xu Wan turned and hugged the man. "Shall we go downstairs and see the snow?"
Jiang Tingzhou agreed.
The two of them changed their clothes together and went downstairs.
I just left the residential area...
A man got out of a car by the roadside and staggered over, calling out, "Mr. Jiang, Mrs. Jiang!"
Jiang Tingzhou and Xu Wan looked over at the same time and realized that the person who came was actually Ma Jun!
Upon seeing Jiang Tingzhou, Ma Jun immediately slapped himself without saying a word: "President Jiang, I was blind to your greatness before and said many unpleasant things. Please forgive my rudeness and don't hold it against me."
"I didn't mind."
Jiang Tingzhou's expression remained unchanged.
There's no way Ma Jun would bother with anything.
"I'm sorry, please forgive me." Ma Jun looked at Xu Wan and suddenly said, "Actually, I've already regretted it. I want to remarry Shanshan. Could you and Mrs. Jiang please put in a good word for me?"
She hadn't forgotten what happened a few days ago, and asked first, "Where's Sang Zhenzhen? Where are the two children?"
Ma Jun didn't understand Xu Wan's meaning and immediately started to shirk responsibility: "I was really deceived by Sang Zhenzhen. I was confused for a moment and divorced Shanshan. I really regret it now. I didn't cherish the good life I had before, Shanshan was such a good wife, and Xiaolin was such a good daughter. It's all my fault."
Xu Wan asked again, "I mean, where did Sang Zhenzhen go? Have you found her? What will happen to the two children? Are they going to be without a mother?"
“How would I know where Sang Zhenzhen went? She ran away from the postpartum care center and disappeared. The baby is temporarily at Shenghe Hospital. I know Shanshan likes children. Shanshan and I will raise the two sons together. As long as no one says anything, no one will know that Shanshan is not their biological mother.”
Ma Jun showed no concern whatsoever for Sang Zhenzhen in his words.
The abacus beads were practically flying into Xu Wan and Jiang Tingzhou's faces.
