Chapter 42
Jiaqi took a sip of tea, cleared her throat, and said, "It's really strange. When I was single, my life was quite comfortable. But ever since I met Fang Huai, I've started to feel anxious and worried. And this was before we even officially started dating. People, you know, have weird emotions sometimes!"
She said with a confused look on her face, her hand supporting her cheek and her eyes curling up, suddenly changing the subject: "But speaking of which, Ke Xin, I really envy you. You met Fu Xuan right after your divorce. It's not because of his famous family background, but because you two love each other. The older I get, the more I realize that meeting someone you love is harder than climbing to the sky!"
"I finally met the hat guy I loved, and he treated me like this!"
At the end of her words, Jiaqi looked up to the sky and sighed.
Ke Xin couldn't help but comfort him, "It's okay. There are always gains and losses in life. Besides, Fu Xuan and I got together by accident. I didn't think we would have a future together at first. Maybe we won't have any future together in the future!"
“Who knows in the future?”
"Haven't you heard the saying, the result is always the same!"
Jiaqi leaned back, lost in thought: "Yeah, who knows what the future holds or where it will be!"
“Life is but thirty thousand days long, so live happily every day!”
Finally, Ke Xin patted Jia Qi's shoulder and teased, "Okay, don't be sad, come to my place for a drink some other day!"
Speaking of drinking, Jiaqi became interested and simply suggested: "Why not go on duty tomorrow?
Then she said with joy, "It's a good opportunity to bring Chengcheng with you. I tell you, her life is much better now than before. Let's get together tomorrow!"
Ke Xin nodded happily.
The next morning, Jiaqi brought Chengcheng and Xiaopiqiu and the gifts they brought into Xiangshan Villa.
When Baobao saw the little ball, a bright smile appeared on his face and he pulled the little ball around the yard.
Seeing this, Aunt Fang on the side reminded the two of them to be careful from time to time and wiped the sweat from behind them from time to time.
The usually quiet villa became unusually lively today with the arrival of Chengcheng and Jiaqi. Ke Xin looked at the two having fun and smiled knowingly.
Ke Xin couldn't help but admire the little ball running around. "I didn't expect that the little ball has not only grown taller, but also turned into a handsome little boy after being cleaned up!"
Hearing this, Cheng Cheng smiled from the bottom of his heart and said, "Yes, thanks to your support, I now have a stable job and can even live with him in the dormitory for free. The group also helped me solve Xiaopiqiu's schooling problem. Now I go to work and he goes to school. I pick him up after get off work. My life is so much better than before!"
She didn't need to say anything. Just looking at the radiant look on her face and the occasional upward curl of her lips, compared to when we first met, when she always had a pout and a sad look on her face, I knew that her life had changed for the better.
Little Ball is even more intuitive. Originally, his eyes were always alert, as if he had an aura of hostility towards the world, and his waist was always hunched, as if it was weighed down by a jack. Now, in just a few months, although his eyes occasionally have a firm alertness, they are more often shining with the light of love. This light must be the flesh and blood that Chengcheng has nurtured with love day after day behind his back. This flesh and blood will accompany him when he grows up, and he will smile and face more storms brought by life.
A trace of admiration flashed in Ke Xin's eyes, and at this time the invited chef came with the ingredients.
Seeing this, Aunt Fang took the chef to the kitchen.
At noon, three women faced a table full of food, raised their glasses of wine, took a sip, and shared their experiences of the day.
Cheng Cheng suddenly stood up, raised his glass and said to Ke Xin, "Ke Xin, without your help, I wouldn't be having such a good day today. I toast to you!"
Ke Xin quickly waved her hands and said with a smile, "You're acting like you're at a social event. Let's just treat today as a sisterly dinner. Don't do this!"
Hearing this, Cheng Cheng put down his glass and said with a smile, "We had a department dinner recently, and the boss was just like that, so I tried to imitate him!"
Jiaqi immediately raised her glass and shouted, "Okay, okay, let's clink glasses. I wish us better and better, and may all our wishes come true and everything go well!"
As the three of them raised their glasses, Jiaqi tilted her head back and drank the whole glass.
At this moment, her phone suddenly vibrated. When she put down her wine glass and slowly opened the text message, her expression suddenly changed, "Fang Huai actually sent her a text message!"
Ke Xin put down her wine glass and couldn't help but remind her, "Jia Qi, even if the iron tree is willing to bloom, I still suggest you ask him what he thinks."
Jiaqi, who was subconsciously excited, heard Ke Xin's consolation and suddenly calmed down and said, "Okay, I'll go out and answer the phone!"
The call was from Fang Huai. She walked outside the quiet yard and answered the phone.
Fang Huai's magnetic voice came from the other side: "Over there, come out and see me?"
Hearing the casual tone on the other side, Jiaqi was furious. She immediately put her hands on her hips and asked, "No, you disappeared these past few days, and now you call me out of the blue with just a few casual words, and you want me to come out and see you?"
The person on the other end paused for a moment, then continued in a normal tone, "We're on a cross-region pursuit mission, and communications are restricted. What? Did you miss me?"
Jiaqi covered her burning cheeks and asked, "Where are you?"
"Laolin Villa!"
Before she answered the phone, she wanted to question him right away, but after hearing the reason, the throbbing that she had suppressed with great difficulty resurfaced.
Listen to your inner feelings!
Thinking of this, she picked up her bag, left a message: "Fang Huai is looking for me", and left impatiently, leaving Chengcheng and Kexin with stunned expressions.
In Lao Lin Villa, Jiaqi was drunk and her face was flushed. She wanted to question Fang Huai about his opinion of her?
Today she was wearing a pair of casual yoga flared pants and a black belly-exposing tight top, showing off her perfect figure and proud curves.
Fang Huai looked away, his Adam's apple twitching. He knew Jiaqi's concerns. They met at the restaurant where they had their first meal together. He explained carefully, "Actually, when you confessed your feelings to me for the first time, it was quite confusing. You know, I haven't been in a relationship for two years. If we really want to have a relationship, it should be me who confesses my feelings to you!"
"So you've been giving me the cold shoulder these days because you were thinking about this?" Jiaqi asked.
Fang Huai choked and said solemnly, "Yes, I admit that I have been thinking about this matter these days. So if you want to talk, you should start well, instead of talking about it when you want to and breaking up when you don't. I always think that a good relationship should start with treating it well from the beginning!"
Jiaqi's heart suddenly warmed: "So, what you mean is, should we start well?"
Fang Huai nodded: "Yeah!"
Then, he took out a gorgeous rose from his back and looked at Jiaqi: "Jiaqi, will you be my girlfriend?"
Seeing this, Jiaqi covered her mouth and couldn't help but redden her eyes. She subconsciously wanted to blurt out "I do," but she suddenly thought of something and suddenly changed her words: "Wait, you have to make three rules with me first before I agree to be your girlfriend!"
Fang Huai nodded, held the rose in his arms and said, "Okay, you say!"
Jiaqi's eyes rolled, and she vowed, "First, if you're my boyfriend, you have to inform me of your schedule as much as possible. You can't ignore me for a whole day. Even if you're busy, you should always find time to send me a text message!"
Fang Huai remained silent, but just raised his eyebrows slightly to signal her to continue.
"Second, after you're with me, you can't touch other women!"
"Third, you must take time out to buy me gifts during holidays every year. Even when I'm angry, you must buy me gifts to comfort me and pamper me. You can't give me the cold shoulder and make me angry!"
Fourth, Jiaqi hadn't thought of anything yet, so she suddenly came up with an idea and said, "The fourth one, I haven't thought about it yet, I'll add to it later, but it will be effective forever!"
At the end of the conversation, Jiaqi said with her neck stiff, "Why, can you agree to this?"
"Yes!" Fang Huai said without thinking, turning the rose back to Jiaqi's side.
After accepting the rose, Jiaqi hesitated for a second and couldn't help asking, "But do you want to set any rules for me?"
Fang Huai thought for a moment and said solemnly, "Except for the first one, I may not be able to satisfy you, but I can do the rest!"
Seeing Jiaqi's confusion, Fang Huai explained sincerely, "Sometimes the mission is urgent. Although I can't guarantee to report my itinerary to you immediately, I promise that as long as the mission is completed, I will reply in time. I hope you can understand the nature of my work!"
Jiaqi wasn't annoyed. She said with admiration, "I understand." Then she rolled her eyes and asked, "What about you? What do you want from me?"
After a pause, Fang Huai said seriously, "Because I basically don't make demands on others. If you agree to be my girlfriend, we can talk it over. Other than that, I never ask my girlfriend to do anything!"
Jiaqi subconsciously said, "Then I can just order a male model!"
After saying this, Fang Huai said in a joking tone: "Then be careful or I'll break your legs!"
After accepting the roses, Jiaqi couldn't help but smile and said, "Boyfriend, you are my boyfriend now!"
Her eyes lit up, and her gaze shifted from Fang Huai's biceps to his lower body. Slightly tipsy, she looked at Fang Huai boldly and chuckled softly, "Boyfriend, let me see if you have eight-pack abs!"
Fang Huai's ears turned red when she looked at him. He warned her helplessly and dotingly, "Don't be upset. Eat well!"
Seeing Fang Huai's rare blushing face, Jiaqi became even more interested. She softened her body and whispered softly in his ear, "What are you afraid of? You're my boyfriend. Even if they see you, they'll only envy you!"
Although Fang Huai looks like an abstinent male god when he is serious, but when Jiaqi gently teases him and they smile at each other, the ambiguous atmosphere between them suddenly heats up!
The two of them couldn't wait to get to the hotel. The moment they closed the door, Fang Huai kissed her with undeniable tenderness and strength, and Jiaqi was doted on...
The room was soon filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
There was a night of violent storms. The next morning, the weather after the rain brought with it natural oxygen. Fang Huai opened the window and took a deep breath, feeling refreshed.
