Chapter 55
It has been cloudy and rainy recently, so Jiaqi got out of Fang Huai's car holding a transparent umbrella.
Ke Xin stood by the road with her hands in her pockets and waited for a few minutes. She took a quick glance and saw that the two were saying goodbye with great affection. Even Jia Qi, who usually spoke loudly in the past, spoke in a gentle and touching tone to Fang Huai!
When Jiaqi's eyes met, they both smiled, looking as if they understood each other.
The two of them met at a Western restaurant. Ke Xin had a poor appetite and just ordered a steak. Jia Qi ordered a roast chicken, steak, ice cream, and salad!
Looking at the overflowing plate of food, Ke Xin teased, "Why, you're not going to lose weight anymore?"
Jiaqi stuffed a piece of steak into her mouth and said with a relaxed look, "Fang Huai said I'm neither fat nor thin, so I don't need to lose weight!"
Ke Xin held her chin with her hand and asked with an auntie smile, "So, are you guys confirmed in your relationship?"
Jiaqi took a sip of red wine and said nonchalantly, "The biggest change in this world is that it's always changing, so how can you be sure that your relationship with him will always be stable?"
As she spoke, she put down the wine glass in her hand, her eyes fell on the pedestrians hurriedly walking outside the window, and her tone was a little confused: "For him and me, it's all about being happy now. Who knows what will happen in the future!"
Ke Xin put it simply: "It's just about enjoying the right to use it!"
"Hmm!" Jiaqi shrugged, then looked puzzled: "Why does a woman become so weird once she starts dating?"
Ke Xin asked back: "How do you say that?"
Jiaqi looked thoughtful. "Take me for example. When Fang Huai doesn't send me a message for a few days, I get anxious and worried. But when he sends me a message back, I feel happy again!"
Hearing this, Ke Xin looked at him with a hint of sympathy and said, "The nature of his job is limited to this. He can't guarantee that he'll be able to contact you at any time. And as everyone knows, being a police officer's wife is very stressful. You have to think carefully about this!"
Jiaqi hummed in agreement, "I know, but you know, it's not easy to fall in love with someone, and he's a rare, normal man, so I just want to be happy now. Who knows what will happen in the future?"
As the two of them clinked glasses, Ke Xin asked, "So are you happy with him?"
At this point, Jiaqi smiled sweetly: "Of course, you know." As she spoke, she looked around, leaned forward towards Ke Xin, and said in a low voice: "Besides, he has great physical strength and a good sense of service!"
Meeting her gaze, Ke Xin nodded in understanding, then raised her glass: "Just be happy!"
"Always asking me, what about you?"
Being caught off guard by Jiaqi's question, Ke Xin was stunned for a while, and then she remembered that she received a friend request in the early morning. She originally thought it was an ordinary advertisement, but when she was about to press the screen, she received a photo. Although the photo was blurry, she recognized it as Fu Xuan from the man's delicate jawline. He was hugging a girl in a low-cut, off-shoulder red top and a black skirt that could not be shorter. The two of them were standing on the street at night, looking ambiguous!
To be honest, her mind went blank for a moment when she saw the photo. Then, a thought flashed through her mind, and she remembered the promise they made to each other when they agreed to be with Fu Xuan: she could agree to be with him on the condition that he could not have other women. If he fell in love with someone else, or wanted to have a new beginning, he could just tell her openly, and she would just disappear.
Thinking of this, her eyes darkened, and she slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and said, "Hasn't his father always wanted him to marry someone else? He even found someone to push him to slander me online. Although he has been dealt with by Fu Xuan, considering the huge gap in our status, the possibility of a future together is slim!"
She looked relieved: "After going around in circles, it's actually the same as you and Fang Huai. I only have the right to use it!"
"That's still a gap. At least your Fu Xuan bought you a house and gave you gifts worth hundreds of thousands of yuan casually!"
This guy is really incomparable. It makes people angry. Speaking of this, Jiaqi fiercely cut a piece of steak and put it into her mouth: "But my guy, at most he treats me to a meal. In the beginning, I used to go to the hotel, but now I can just go to his house without paying for the hotel. Sometimes I even have to pay for the taxi fare!"
Ke Xin was surprised: "You went to his house!"
"Yeah," Jiaqi said with a smile, "Now he occasionally comes to my house, and I go to his house like this!"
Ke Xin tsk-tsk-tsk a few times and jokingly said, "That's pretty good, things are developing very quickly, they look like a young couple!"
Speaking of this, Jiaqi suddenly thought of something funny and said, covering her mouth: "When he came to my house, he disliked my house for being a mess!"
Ke Xin stiffened her neck and couldn't help but speak up for her: "There's no place like home, no place like home. What's wrong with being messy? This is your home, just make it comfortable!"
Jiaqi continued with a smile, "You know, I've had at least four or five boyfriends, but this boyfriend's house is the tidiest. Even his quilt is folded neatly!"
Ke Xin interrupted, "Why else would he be a soldier?" Then, blurting out, "If you get married, he'll be responsible for all the housecleaning!"
"That's right," Jiaqi continued proudly, "Now when he comes to my house, he often helps me clean. Oh, and he cooks delicious food too. Next time, let him cook a few dishes for you to try!"
"Okay," Ke Xin gave Jia Qi a thumbs up and praised, "That's what men are made for!"
"Then why not let him do his duty tomorrow? I'm moving into a new house tomorrow, so why not let him show off his skills tomorrow?"
"Okay," Jiaqi agreed immediately, then she said suspiciously, "Hey, that's not right. You've been living with Fu Xuan, why do you suddenly want to move?"
Ke Xin smiled calmly, took a sip of tea, and answered the question irrelevantly: "The fact that I was blackmailed by the entire internet a few days ago was actually his father's doing. Since he and I don't have any future together, why don't I take advantage of the time his father is messing with us to distance myself from him?"
Finally, she quietly added, "Besides, he's very controlling. I also want a place that's completely my own!"
Jiaqi said from the bottom of her heart: "Alright, do whatever makes you happy. But this Fu Xuan is really good to you. There are not many men in the world who can easily spend tens of millions to buy you a house. So as a sister, I still advise you to grasp it as much as possible. Of course, there is nothing you can do if it is really hard!"
Ke Xin said "hmm" and looked a little surprised!
The next morning, after having breakfast, Ke Xin got into the nanny car, holding Bao Bao in her left hand and the suitcase in her right hand.
Aunt Fang also just found out that Ke Xin was moving this morning. Her first reaction was to hold her forehead with her hand and asked in surprise, "Did you have a fight with Fu Xuan?"
Ke Xin smiled and shook her head with her back to her: "No, Aunt Fang, I just suddenly wanted to live on my own. By the way, you can come over to my place anytime, it's not far away anyway!"
It only takes a dozen minutes for the nanny car to drive to the community’s underground parking lot.
For this housewarming ceremony, Ke Xin only invited Jia Qi, Fang Huai and Aunt Fang.
As Ke Xin brought Bao Bao into the house, Fu Xuan's phone rang.
At this time, Baobao saw the brand new house and felt a surge of fresh energy, so he ran around the house happily.
Ke Xin hesitated for a moment, walked to the balcony and then slowly answered the phone.
"I heard from Aunt Fang that you moved away?"
Fu Xuan's deep and magnetic voice came from the microphone.
Ke Xin half-supported her elbows and said "hmm" softly. What came into view outside the balcony was the swimming pool downstairs. There were vaguely a few people and children swimming in the pool.
There was silence for a moment, then he changed his tone and asked, "As long as you like it, I'll be back from my business trip tomorrow. Will you come pick me up?"
"OK!"
As she was speaking, there was a knock on the door. Ke Xin quickly said to Fu Xuan, "Let's not talk about it anymore. Jiaqi is here to see me!"
"Um!"
After hanging up the phone, Ke Xin couldn't help feeling melancholy, vaguely feeling that the unspoken gap between her and Fu Xuan was becoming more and more obvious because of Fu Lei's interference.
This feeling of powerlessness towards fate suddenly made her heart skip a beat.
But she had clearly told herself that when she was with Fu Xuan, she should not fantasize too much and just enjoy the present moment!
Fortunately, her depressed mood was quickly replaced by the laughter of Jiaqi and Fang Huai.
After Jiaqi entered the house and put the gifts she brought on the table, before she could react, Baobao suddenly threw himself into her arms.
From time to time, she would pull Jiaqi into the house with her chubby little hands, chattering, "Auntie Jiaqi, you're finally here. Come and see the building blocks I built!"
"Hey, Baobao, why are you so strong now!" Jiaqi smiled warmly and followed Baobao to her children's room.
After a burst of excitement, Fang Huai mentioned the vegetables he bought from the market and raised his hand to signal, "Then I'll go cook!"
Looking at the overflowing plate of dishes, Ke Xin covered her mouth with her hands in astonishment and said, "Hey, you bought so many dishes, we can't finish them in three days and three nights. Besides, the chef will be here soon. How can I have the nerve to let you cook for your first visit to my home!"
Jiaqi suddenly stuck her head out and said, "Let him make some. Didn't you say he wanted to taste his cooking skills?"
Meeting Jiaqi's half-smiley eyes, Fang Huai took the opportunity to lead the dishes into the kitchen: "Hey, I have nothing to do anyway, I'll just stir-fry two dishes, and put the rest in the refrigerator for you to enjoy!"
Ke Xin laughed dryly twice and nodded.
After Fang Huai entered the kitchen, the chefs also came in one after another with semi-finished dishes, followed by the team for the housewarming ceremony.
Although there were not many relatives or friends, the room suddenly became lively as the number of staff members increased.
Baobao got tired of playing with building blocks with Jiaqi, and when he saw more people around, he started looking around the room curiously.
Watching the Taoist priest's bells ringing and him muttering to the offerings on the table with his eyes closed, Bao Bao blinked his eyelashes and looked around curiously, then walked to the kitchen and watched the chef and Uncle Fang Huai each doing their job.
