Chapter 259 Cold



The shop is indeed not big. It is located above a state-owned restaurant. The back door leads to a large rooftop with rows of exquisite and beautiful tables and chairs.

It has indeed attracted many young people to come and eat.

As expected of the provincial capital, the level of development and openness here is indeed much stronger than that on the islands.

Lin Jiaojiao smelled the sweet aroma of milk, walked through the crowd, and soon saw Zhou Xiaoyin sitting in the corner.

But there was a man sitting opposite her.

The man had his back to us, and all we could see was that he was wearing a military uniform and had a tall and straight figure, but we couldn't see what his face looked like.

At this time, Mu Yanjin looked at Zhou Xiaoyin opposite him, felt that the time was ripe, and prepared to propose a breakup.

As soon as he left home, he called the Zhou family.

I heard that she came to this dim sum restaurant with her friends, so I came here directly.

"Xiaoyin, I..."

"By the way, come to my house for dinner today. My family hasn't seen you in a long time and they miss you a lot!"

Mu Yanjin looked at her expectant expression, feeling a bit guilty, and more determined that he should have made it clear earlier: "Xiaoyin, actually, we two are not..."

Unexpectedly, before he could finish his words, the person on the other side suddenly stood up excitedly, and waved towards the distance with bright eyes: "Here, how did you find this place? I'm so sorry, I forgot the time while chatting. You must have been waiting for a long time, right?"

Zhou Xiaoyin didn't expect that she would meet Mu Yanjin when she came here to reserve a seat.

Mu Yanjin said that he had something important to discuss with her, and it was difficult for her to refuse, nor did she want to refuse. She thought it was still early and there was nothing wrong with chatting for a while.

Who knew that after chatting like this, we would forget about time!

Now looking at Lin Jiaojiao, I feel extremely guilty.

He didn't even notice the expression on Mu Yanjin's face when he turned around.

Mu Yanjin couldn't believe his eyes.

He didn't expect that on such a sunny morning, when he looked back without any preparation, he would see the shadow he had been thinking about day and night.

It all seems so unreal!

He just watched Lin Jiaojiao walk towards him step by step.

Today she was wearing this white dress, with her long black hair tucked behind her ears. The morning breeze blew by, bringing up a few wisps of breeze that stirred his heart deeply.

Lin Jiaojiao didn't notice the burning gazes of the people around her. Seeing Zhou Xiaoyin's guilty and guilty look, she smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, I said I'm very sensitive about the route, and here I am!"

Seeing Lin Jiaojiao being so understanding, Zhou Xiaoyin felt even worse. "No matter what, it's all my fault. It's perfect, why don't you come to my house tonight?"

"ah?"

"Oh! Look at my brain, I forgot to introduce you. This is my childhood friend Mu Yanjin. Yanjin, it's all your fault. You had to come talk to me at this time, and you were late to pick up my good friend!"

Zhou Xiaoyin pretended to be angry and glared at Mu Yanjin.

At this moment, Mu Yanjin, as soon as Zhou Xiaoyin touched him, instantly retracted his gaze and returned to his usual gentle and elegant demeanor. He smiled and shook his head, looking at Lin Jiaojiao with a little surprise: "So it's you!"

Lin Jiaojiao felt the name was very familiar, and after a closer look she recognized it: "Mu, Mu Yanjin?"

"Why? You two know each other?"

Zhou Xiaoyin was a little confused.

Mu Yanjin smiled and nodded, and briefly recounted what happened when he met Lin Jiaojiao in Yuan County.

"So that's how it is! That's really fate!" Zhou Xiaoyin was very happy. She didn't expect that the person she liked knew her good friend. She could only sigh that this fate was too close!

"Oh right, that's perfect. Why don't you two go to my house for dinner tonight? We'll all know each other and won't feel uncomfortable!"

"this……"

Lin Jiaojiao was a little reluctant to go.

Zhou Xiaoyin saw that she was about to refuse, and immediately pulled her arm coquettishly: "Come on, you're alone at home anyway, and Grandpa has been wanting to see you for a long time. You don't know, when I went back that day, he didn't see you go back with me, and he was very unhappy! He also said that he must find time to thank you in person."

"Actually, I didn't do anything. You saved your grandfather yourself."

"You and I both know the situation at that time. If it weren't for you, no matter how hard I tried, it would be useless. Our whole family will remember this favor. If you don't go today, maybe my grandfather will have to visit in person in a couple of days!"

Seeing Zhou Xiaoyin's resolute attitude, Lin Jiaojiao couldn't insist any further and nodded, "Okay then."

Anyway, Ji Huaian said it when he got up early and left today.

The transfer is rather complicated, and I have to meet several old leaders, so I will definitely be back very late at night.

I had told Zhou Xiaoyin about this before.

Mu Yanjin, who had been suppressing his excitement and carefully observing Lin Jiaojiao, immediately agreed when he saw that she agreed to attend the banquet: "Okay, then, I also want to go see Grandpa Zhou!"

Zhou Xiaoyin was pleasantly surprised to hear him agree so readily: "That's great! Today is the happiest day I've had in recent times!"

After a simple dessert, they prepared to go back.

Along the way, Zhou Xiaoyin was introducing the beautiful scenery and architecture of Beijing to Lin Jiaojiao. Whenever she talked about something interesting or related to Mu Yanjin's childhood, she would mention him from time to time, either as a joke or deliberately joking.

But Mu Yanjin's attitude was extremely cold, and he basically ended the topic with just one sentence.

Really? I don’t quite remember.

So that's how it is.

Lin Jiaojiao saw this perfunctory and indifferent attitude and thought of the endings of the two people in the book. She felt more distressed for this poor and silly girl.

The three of them soon arrived at Zhou's house.

They also live in a courtyard house, but it has two entrances and exits and is decorated very exquisitely.

It can be seen that the owner must love flowers, as the yard is full of flowers.

As soon as Zhou Xiaoyin entered the door, she couldn't wait to shout, "Grandpa, come out quickly, look who I brought with me!"

Grandpa Zhou, who heard the noise, didn't even have time to take off his glasses. He hurried out of the room and saw Mu Yanjin and another strange girl following Zhou Xiaoyin. "Mu Yanjin, you still remember to come and see Grandpa Zhou!"

"Grandpa Zhou, where are you talking about? I miss you all the time."

"You still have some conscience!"

"Grandpa, don't just worry about him. Look who I brought here."

Zhou Xiaoyin pulled Lin Jiaojiao to her side with a proud look on her face.

"Could it be..." Grandpa Zhou's eyes lit up. Lin Jiaojiao's eyes suddenly lit up, filled with gratitude and excitement: "Comrade Xiaolin!"

"Hello, Grandpa Zhou."

"Okay, okay!" Confirming that it was his savior, Mr. Zhou became even more excited, and his slightly pale face instantly turned rosy. "Thanks to the medicine you gave me before, otherwise, I wouldn't be standing here alive. I have always remembered this kindness, but I just didn't have the chance to repay it before. Today we finally meet, I want to thank you very much!"
