Chapter 143 Jealousy
Perhaps it was the romantic factor retained in women's nature that gave a special meaning to the specific number. Yu Nian took out her mobile phone and searched the Internet for the meaning of 11 roses.
The first line that pops up is -
Love only one person in your life.
Yu Nian was stunned for a moment, then he held his chin and laughed out loud, it was so cliché.
It is already late spring and the weather is getting warmer. A few white roses in the vase add a touch of vitality and brightness to the clean and deserted apartment.
After arranging the flowers, Yu Nian said something to Ji Yanxing, then took her clothes and went to take a shower.
When she came out, Ji Yanxing had already prepared the meal. She could smell the delicious food before she even walked into the restaurant. She was not very hungry originally, but now she felt a little hungry.
Ji Yanxing is a good cook and Yu Nian loves the food he cooks, but he is so busy that Yu Nian feels a little embarrassed. She drinks some milk tea and cuts the fruits delivered from the takeaway and arranges them on a plate as after-meal fruit.
She took the initiative to take on the task of serving rice and carrying plates. There were four dishes and one soup, with the soup placed in the middle. The steaming hot food created a warm feeling.
Yu Nian took out his cell phone and took a picture of the dining table.
"Who are you going to send it to?" When Ji Yanxing came out after washing his hands, he saw her taking pictures of the food. Her eyes were curved and she looked happy.
Yu Nian was startled, "Why are you like a ghost?"
Ji Yanxing: “…”
Yu Nian put the phone away and said, "I don't plan to send it to anyone. I just took a picture to record my life."
Life.
His life with her.
The life she recorded was related to him.
Ji Yanxing curled the corners of his lips, "Oh, let's eat."
The food tasted as good as usual, with good color, aroma and taste. Yu Nian ate a whole bowl of rice and drank a bowl of soup.
"I moved back." Ji Yanxing suddenly said as he looked at Yu Nian who was concentrating on eating across from him.
Yu Nian wasn't surprised: "Yeah."
"You have two bedrooms here," Ji Yanxing stared at her, "How about I move here so I can cook for you every day."
"no."
Almost the next moment after he finished speaking, she blurted out "No".
Decisive is not possible.
No need to hesitate.
Ji Yanxing lowered his eyes to hide the disappointment in them.
When she ignored him before, he thought that as long as she could give him a chance, it would be fine.
Now that she agreed to give him a chance and treated him well, he wanted to go a step further.
Humans are truly greedy creatures.
He curled his lower lip in self-mockery and said calmly, "I'll buy you breakfast tomorrow morning, remember to eat it."
Ji Group is quite far from this apartment. Yu Nian gets up at eight o'clock, but he has to get up half an hour earlier, so their morning times are not synchronized.
Yu Nian did not refuse: "Okay."
Ji Yanxing left only after washing the dishes.
I have to say that he is really homely. If he gets off work early, he will cook for himself. If he gets off work late, he will ask the restaurant to pack up a few meals and bring them to her house.
Since he moved next door, Yu Nian's quality of life has improved a lot, and she has gotten used to his presence in her life again.
Roses would dry up in about three days, so he would bring her a few roses every few days and replace the dried flowers with fresh ones, as if that would keep them blooming forever.
Ji Yanxing: [Have you had breakfast? ]
As soon as Yu Nian arrived at the law firm, he received a text message from Ji Yanxing. Today's breakfast was the pancakes and millet porridge he bought while going for a morning run.
Yu Nian: [I ate it.]
Ji Yanxing: [Let’s go out for dinner tonight. ]
Yu Nian: [Why?]
Ji Yanxing: [Today is 520.]
Yu Nian: "..."
He has a sense of ritual.
Yu Nian: [Okay, I have a court session this afternoon. I’ll text you after it’s over.]
Ji Yanxing: [Yes.]
Putting down his phone, Yu Nian began to prepare materials for the afternoon court session.
This is the case of Dong Qiuping and Liao Ming. Dong Qiuping got the video of Liao Ming abusing her. With this evidence, Dong Qiuping can get more benefits.
However, Yu Nian felt a little scared when he thought of Liao Ming's rough and ferocious face. During the pre-trial mediation, Liao Ming's mental state was not quite normal, and he even beat up the judge's assistant.
During lunch, Yu Nian and Qiao Siyun mentioned this matter. Qiao Siyun sighed: "Some time ago, a female lawyer was hit on the head with a brick. The worst thing is that a group of people scolded her online, saying that she was a lackey of the capitalists and deserved to be beaten for speaking for the capitalists. They are really a bunch of legal illiterates. Now lawyers have to practice self-defense."
Society has a lot of prejudice against lawyers, especially female lawyers. Most of those who are beaten are also female lawyers. They dare not beat tall and strong male lawyers because weak ones are easier to pick on.
Yu Nian sighed: "I hope I can come out of this in one piece this afternoon."
After lunch, on the way back, Yu Nian became more and more scared. She thought about sending a text message to Ji Yanxing, asking him to wait for her at the court gate if he was free this afternoon.
The court session ended around six o'clock and it was almost time for him to get off work.
Thinking of this, Yu Nian went to get his phone and glanced inadvertently, and saw the glass door of a western restaurant in front of him being pushed open, and two people walked in, one after the other.
Her gaze paused.
Ji Yanxing was dressed in a black shirt and trousers, looking cool and dignified. He was tall and straight, half a head taller than the woman in high heels in front of him.
It was clearly the woman walking in front, but he reached over her and pushed the glass door open for her. I don't know if it was because he was a gentleman by habit, or for some other reason.
The woman was wearing a beige long dress. She looked up at him and smiled sweetly at him.
Yu Nian pursed her lips and tightened her grip on the phone. The man she was staring at seemed to have noticed something and suddenly turned around to meet her gaze before she could look away.
There was no change on Ji Yanxing's face. He lowered his head and said something to the woman, then raised his leg and walked towards her.
Qiao Siyun stood beside Yu Nian, suppressing her inner excitement: So damn handsome! He is simply a walking hormone!
"I want to talk to Nian Nian alone, is that okay?" Ji Yanxing asked in a gentle voice.
Qiao Siyun: "Of course."
As she said that, she looked at Yu Nian and said, "I'm going back to the law firm first."
"Um."
After Qiao Siyun left, Ji Yanxing stared at her, waiting for her to question him.
Yu Nian waited for a while, and seeing that he didn't say anything, he said, "If you have something to say, please say it quickly. I have work to do this afternoon."
Ji Yanxing's eyes darkened. He originally wanted to explain to her, but seeing her expression as if she had seen nothing, he swallowed his words and wanted to wait for her to ask him.
She should be angry and jealous if she saw him with another woman.
But no, he observed her expression carefully. Her calmness and indifference didn't seem to be pretended. She just didn't care at all who he was with.
Not jealous either.
During this period, he would occasionally kiss her when she wasn't paying attention, and she didn't mind him. He thought she was slowly falling in love with him again.
It turned out that he was overthinking again.
