I was startled, looked at him, and said unhappily, "Did I ever say I wanted to marry you?"
"Everything else is up to you."
Zhou Fang's lips curled slightly, "Only this one, I have the final say."
“…”
I glared at him and said, "I don't want to, but you can still tie me up?"
As he spoke, he went downstairs.
Seeing him following me and trying to get in the car, I wondered, "Where's your car?"
"The driver drove away."
He opened the passenger door, took a step forward with his long legs, and got in the car.
He was very relaxed and his movements were faster than mine.
It was a rare day, I didn’t fall asleep right after getting on the bus.
I started the car and heard him ask, "Did you go back to ask your aunt anything?"
"Well, I got a little bit of it."
Speaking of my aunt, my mood darkened. I said as I drove, "I was indeed kidnapped that year. I ran away and got into my dad's car. He saved me."
"They heard the group of people who were searching for me mention 'Mrs. Shen' or something like that."
I said, wanting to hear his thoughts, “Do you think the person who kidnapped me is…Mrs. Shen?”
"It's almost there."
Zhou Fang frowned, "However, before the kidnapping, she treated you well. That's why I never doubted her over the years."
"Yeah."
I pursed my lips and said, "No wonder I felt a little familiar when I saw her before."
After all, she was the one who treated me kindly when I was a child and whom I called "Mom".
Zhou Fang seemed to be thinking about something, and then he asked, "Any other clues?"
"have."
I was about to continue when he said, "Turn left here," as we approached the traffic light.
"Hmm? Where to?"
I was confused for a moment because this was not the direction to the hotel, but I still listened to him and turned on the turn signal.
Zhou Fang's voice was relaxed and pleasant, "I'll take you somewhere, and you'll know when you get there."
"oh."
"Go on."
"Then I'll tell you when I get there."
I also deliberately kept it a secret.
He chuckled and said lazily, "Learn and apply now."
…
Following his personal navigation, I drove slowly into an old-style villa community in the center of Jingcheng City.
After getting out of the car, I was a little puzzled, but he opened the trunk and helped me carry my luggage down.
I looked at him, "?"
“This time, I won’t stay in a hotel.”
After he said that, he pushed the suitcase and walked ahead in a grand manner.
After walking a few steps, he saw that I had no intention of following him, so he turned around and glanced at me. "Why, have you already imagined a big scene in your mind where I'm forcing myself on you?"
“Who came up with this?”
“Whoever has imagined it knows.”
“…”
I admitted that his provocation worked, so I quickly followed him. "I know you're not that kind of person. Zhou Fang, I've always trusted you."
He laughed, "Really?"
"right."
I didn't know if I was really praising him or just trying to calm myself, but I gave a definite answer.
It is a small villa with two elevators and two households, and the environment is very good.
The moment he opened the door, I looked at the wall of Doraemon in the entrance hall, and the corners of my mouth curled up involuntarily, "How can you be so childish?"
"You are childish."
"?"
At my puzzled expression, he raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "You don't like it now?"
"I still like it."
I realized that this entire wall of Doraemon ornaments was placed there considering my preferences.
In this community, you can see the traces of time on the outside, but the houses are kept spotless and very clean.
The lighting is excellent and the decoration is warm and exquisite pastoral style.
Like a girl would like it.
I was just wondering why he liked this style when he handed me the original key to the fingerprint lock. "It's all decorated according to your childhood preferences. I wanted to give it to you as a birthday present back then, but I didn't have time."
I was about to refuse, but after hearing what he said, I accepted it and jokingly said, "So there was a time when you treated money like dirt?"
Now people are unwilling to do anything without profit, but when they were young, they bought a house as soon as they saw the light of day.
He raised an eyebrow and said, "You're too kind. After all, I cheated a lot of good things from you when I was a kid."
“…”
That can only mean not forgetting your original intention.
After changing into his slippers, he pushed his luggage straight into the bedroom. "Everyday necessities and other things have been bought. You can add anything else you like."
"good."
I nodded and looked around, feeling a sense of security that I hadn't felt in a long time.
The early spring sunset shines in.
He leaned against the door frame like a boneless person and said casually, "Can we continue? What else did you find out when you went to Jiangcheng?"
"this."
I pulled out the rabbit jade pendant from my collar and asked, "Do you recognize it?"
"Dang."
His expression was slightly tense. "You always wear it on you?"
"Well, not long after I saw you in Jiangcheng, my aunt gave it to me."
"I give in."
He cursed with a laugh, pinched my cheek, and gritted his teeth: "Who taught you to hide it so well?"
If he had seen it earlier, many things wouldn't have taken so long.
He pinched me so hard that my face was distorted. "...I didn't expect this thing to be so useful."
"You're so stupid."
He let go of me and glanced at me. "What happened to the pendant?"
"There's a word 'jiang' carved underneath."
I looked at him and asked, "Do you know where this jade pendant came from?"
"It is said that your mother...Mrs. Shen gave it to you when you were born."
Zhou Fang frowned, as if recalling, "We asked grandma about the word 'Jiang' at that time, and grandma said that Madam Shen was from the Jiang family."
I was puzzled. "But her last name isn't Jiang."
He answered my questions, "She took her mother's surname. I don't know what happened back then, but after she married into the Shen family, the Jiang family cut off all ties with her."
The more I listened, the more confused I became.
But I still feel that Mother Shen...cannot be my biological mother.
He chuckled and straightened up, "Don't worry, the truth will come out sooner or later."
I smiled and said, "Yeah."
There's no point in being anxious about this matter.
Too many things are old and it is not easy to get to the bottom of them.
I checked the time and asked, "Can I treat you to dinner?"
“Ding Dong——”
As soon as he finished speaking, the doorbell rang.
He went to open the door and took two bags of fresh fruits and vegetables from the delivery boy. As he walked towards the refrigerator, he asked meaningfully, "How is Fu Qichuan's cooking?"
I didn't think much about it and replied truthfully: "It's pretty good."
Thanks to Fu Jinan's training, Fu Qichuan is indeed a good cook.
Although I don’t have many opportunities to eat it.
"Yeah?"
Zhou Fang responded nonchalantly, asked me what I wanted to eat, and put the rest in the refrigerator.
I walked over and said, "I'll do it."
He doesn't look like he can cook.
The last time I went to his house, the kitchen was as clean as a model house.
I don't know what touched his sensitive spot, but he glanced at me and said in a lazy tone, "Are you afraid that I will poison you to death?"
"Of course not."
I replied against my will, "Your cooking skills look like they're state banquet quality."
He was quite satisfied with the answer and raised his chin towards the living room. "Then you can go to the sofa and lie down, sit or curl up, and wait for dinner."
"OK."
Hearing him speak so easily, I thought dinner for the next day was secured.
