Chapter 75 It matches our wedding rings

To be precise, it was not a gift I bought today.

I saw the cufflinks when I was buying gifts for my grandmother and mother Gu before returning to the old house. I thought they were very suitable for Gu Zhiyan, so I bought them. I just forgot to give them to him when I was at the old house.

Jian Yao lowered her eyes, looked at the black velvet box on the table, and nodded heavily.

Yes, that's it.

Even though Jian Yao had already given herself a psychological hint, knowing that Gu Zhiyan was on the way made her feel even more uncomfortable than before...she felt restless and uncomfortable.

Jian Yao was holding her cell phone and strolling outside in the arcade.

The warm yellow light fell on her cold white skin, casting a warm glow.

I was prepared for the problems I might encounter later.

If he asks me why I gave a gift, how should I answer?

What if he mistakenly thinks I have bad intentions towards him?

How should she subtly hint to him at night when they go to bed that she can give him half of her bed?

Giving him gifts and giving him a separate bed, wouldn't that easily lead to misunderstanding?

Until the sound of footsteps came from the direction of the courtyard gate and Gu Zhiyan's tall figure approached from afar, all the assumptions in my mind suddenly disappeared.

She took a few quick steps forward and looked up at Gu Zhiyan.

"You're back?"

Gu Zhiyan looked down at her and held her arm with one hand, "Slow down, your foot is not healed yet."

Jian Yao's heart trembled at the heat of a man's body, and her pink lips turned suspiciously red.

She raised her wrist to show Gu Zhiyan, "It's actually fine now."

She has been treated with medicated oil and anti-inflammatory drugs and is almost recovered.

The night breeze blew by, and the faint aroma of wine mixed with the fresh smell of Gu Zhiyan rushed into the nose.

It's light and not offensive.

She moved closer, sniffed twice, and widened her eyes slightly, "You've been drinking."

How can someone look exactly the same as usual after drinking? It's impossible to tell.

The wine is really good!

"Um."

Gu Zhiyan loosened his grip on her arm and held her hand instead.

Jian Yao's hands were white and soft, as if they would slip away from between her fingers like quicksand if she exerted any force.

He only wrapped it gently and walked towards the living room at the same pace as hers. "I'll be careful next time."

Jian Yao followed him closely, chasing his steps. Hearing this, she raised her eyes in confusion, "What are you paying attention to?"

Gu Zhiyan had a smile on his lips and seemed to be in a good mood.

"Be careful not to drink alcohol as much as possible."

Jian Yao took Gu Zhiyan's hand and walked up the stairs and into the living room, wanting to say that she had no intention of forbidding him from drinking.

There is no reason not to drink at business events.

Although given Gu Zhiyan's status, no one would dare to force him to drink, but he still wanted to show his appreciation.

However, the people around him had already seen the conspicuous black velvet box on the table.

Gu Zhiyan put down the food box in his hand and looked at it curiously.

"What is this?"

Jian Yao's eyes flickered twice, "It's a wedding present for you!"

She explained in a somewhat deceitful way, "Didn't you give me a bouquet of flowers on the day we got the marriage certificate? This is a return gift."

Gu Zhiyan looked down at her leisurely.

The lights in the living room were much brighter than those in the courtyard. Only then did she realize that even after Gu Zhiyan had drunk alcohol, it was not completely invisible.

At least, there was a faint blush at the corners of those cold eyes, and when those dark pupils looked at people, they seemed to want to suck in the person's soul.

Afraid that Gu Zhiyan would ask again, she shook her hand, "Don't you want to open it and take a look?"

Meeting her expectant look, Gu Zhiyan let go of her hand, picked up the box and opened it.

The light pink diamond cufflinks sparkle brightly under the light, and the classic round design is simple and elegant.

Jian Yao tilted her head to look at him, with a smile in her bright eyes, "It looks good, doesn't it? It matches our wedding rings very well."

They are all designed with platinum powder diamonds.

Gu Zhiyan nodded, leaned forward slightly and looked at Jian Yao seriously, his tone meaningful, "It's a good match."

"Then you know what? Ties and cufflinks are private things that can't be given to others casually."

Jian Yao blinked her eyes. You got the advantage and you still want to be ungrateful?

She pretended to reach out to take it, "Then just give it back to me."

Gu Zhiyan raised his hand to avoid her action, and the smile on his lips deepened, "There is no reason to take back something you have given away."

He raised his hand and smoothed the frizzy hair on Jian Yao's head, "I just want to tell you that since you gave it to me, you can't give it to others in the future."

Jian Yao covered her head which was being rubbed by Gu Zhiyan and decided to take back what she had just said.

Gu Zhiyan is much more vicious after drinking than usual!

Gu Zhiyan carefully put away the cufflinks, opened the lunch box, and took out the still hot soup bowl.

"I brought this bird's nest specially for you. Be careful with the burns."

Gu Zhiyan opened the lid, put the spoon in, and pushed it in front of Jian Yao.

Jian Yao looked at the huge food box, which was filled with layer upon layer of protection just for this small bowl of bird's nest, and felt a little sad.

Jian Yao recalled that when she was in the orphanage, her classmates at school often boasted about what delicious food and fun things their parents brought back from working outside the home.

At that time, she was very jealous.

Later, she returned to Jane's home.

The pocket money they gave her was enough to buy her any snacks and toys she wanted. However, no matter how many toys and snacks she bought, it could not make up for the feeling of loss she had at the beginning.

Until this moment, looking at the warm food box and bird's nest in front of her, Jian Yao finally understood.

What she looked forward to and envied when she was a child were never snacks or toys.

It's the feeling of being remembered.

Jian Yao raised her hand and put the lid back on the soup bowl. "Wait, I'll make you some honey water to sober you up."

As if she was afraid that Gu Zhiyan would tease her again, she had already taken two steps and turned back to explain, "This time, it's a return gift from Yanwo."

Gu Zhiyan let out a faint laugh and repeated Jian Yao's words, "Okay, this is the return gift from Yanwo."

There was warm boiled water in the kitchen. Jian Yao scooped two spoonfuls of honey, rinsed it with warm water and stirred it evenly, then placed it in front of Gu Zhiyan and began to enjoy her bird's nest.

The sweet taste melts in your mouth, and it seems that mint water has been added. It doesn't have the greasy taste of ordinary desserts, and it is a bit refreshing.

Jian Yao ate seriously.

Gu Zhiyan took a sip of honey water, his lips stained with water and shimmering with moist light, "I came back late today. You must be anxious waiting for me, right?"

Jian Yao shook her head. "Not for long. I'm just a little uncomfortable."

After she said this, she was stunned for a moment.

It's only been a few days, and I've already gotten used to Gu Zhiyan's presence without realizing it?

She pursed her lips, and could already imitate Gu Zhiyan's tone in her mind.

【Oh~ I’m not used to it! 】
