Chapter 15 Sweet Time
Jiang Xu looked at He Yanting quietly.
She was very calm in her heart, and the reason she acted like a spoiled child was just to test whether he had heard Luo Jiaming's true identity just now.
She didn't care about Luo Jiaming that much, but she didn't want to implicate innocent people.
"Don't bother Luo Jiaming."
Jiang Xu whispered.
As soon as he finished speaking, the hand pressing on the back of his neck tightened noticeably.
He Yanting lowered his eyes to look at her, his voice cold and gloomy: "Do you care about him?"
Jiang Xu shook his head, his eyes like a pool of still water: "No, he is an insignificant person, there is no need to involve him between us."
These words pleased He Yanting.
He curled his lips: "Okay, I can let him go this time."
Jiang Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he didn't hear the previous conversation, otherwise he would never let Luo Jiaming go so easily.
But the next second, He Yanting leaned over to her ear and lowered his voice:
"But if there's a next time, I guarantee he'll end up in a miserable state."
Jiang Xu's body tensed up and he swallowed.
Facing He Yanting's pressing gaze, she said calmly, "His fate has nothing to do with me."
"Um."
He Yanting touched her chin and asked, "Do you want to eat here?"
The smell of steak had already made Jiang Xu nauseous. She shook her head: "No appetite, I want to go home."
He Yanting took her away, but instead of going home, they went to a private restaurant.
"Serve some easily digestible food."
He Yanting ordered.
Jiang Xu looked around. Although the place was not big, the decoration was low-key and luxurious. The furniture was all made of mahogany and the environment was very quiet.
In the city center of Beijing, where every inch of land is valuable, there are only a few private rooms. This is obviously not a place that ordinary people can come to.
Soon, some light snacks were served, along with a pot of steaming porridge.
He Yanting poured a bowl of porridge and placed it in front of Jiang Xu. "Try it and see if it suits your taste."
Jiang Xu was a little resistant.
Her morning sickness was particularly severe.
I remember that in my previous life, I had pregnancy retching until the fifth month. In the end, there was nothing in my stomach and I vomited yellow water. I became extremely thin.
But she didn't want to reveal her pregnancy in front of He Yanting.
So he picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful of porridge and put it into his mouth.
In an instant, the fresh and fragrant taste spread in the mouth, without any feeling of nausea.
Unexpectedly good.
"tasty."
She commented and quickly finished her bowl of porridge.
"Then eat more."
He Yanting filled her bowl again.
Jiang Xu was not polite. She had hardly eaten anything in the past few days and was just hanging on by a breath of air.
I didn’t think much of it at first, but once I found something that suited my taste, I couldn’t stop eating it.
In the end she drank five bowls of porridge.
The small clay pot for porridge is almost empty.
Judge He Yan tapped the table lightly with his finger and quipped, "With such an appetite, others would think I'm mistreating you."
Jiang Xu's face darkened slightly: "I'm done eating."
"Don't move."
He Yanting suddenly stood up and leaned over.
The handsome face like a model suddenly approached, and before Jiang Xu could react, his thumb landed on the corner of his lips.
“Is it really that delicious?”
He Yanting sucked the remaining porridge on his thumb.
Jiang Xu's breathing stagnated, and she avoided his ambiguous gaze: "Yeah, it tastes quite good."
When I got up to leave, the restaurant owner came to see me off.
"Mr. He, this is your..."
He Yanting said calmly, "Fiancée."
The boss said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mrs. He."
If it were in the previous life, Jiang Xu would be so happy that she would cry if He Yanting could speak so openly about their relationship.
But now she felt nothing at all.
I don’t know what Mrs. He said to him last time that made him so attentive. It’s most likely related to the shares of Shengyu Group.
"By the way, Boss, how do you make that porridge?"
Jiang Xu asked politely, "I think it's really delicious. I want to learn how to make it myself. Of course, if it's inconvenient, forget it."
The boss smiled and said, "That porridge looks simple, but the process is complicated. First, you have to soak the best rice in advance, then grind the yam into a paste, choose the freshest shrimp, add some fresh fish fillets, and some spices. Mix them together and simmer for more than an hour. Simmer over low heat the whole time, and someone needs to watch and stir it the whole time."
Upon hearing such a complicated story, Jiang Xu suddenly felt lost.
"It seems that it's better for you to earn some money." She said helplessly.
The boss said, "Mrs. He is welcome to come back anytime."
Jiang Xu thought that places like this were membership-based, and since she and He Yanting had no relationship anymore, she might never be able to eat there again.
He Yanting's eyes swept across her face, and he put his arm around her waist: "Let's go."
After sending Jiang Xu home, He Yanting followed her into the building.
Just as she was about to close the door, He Yanting propped it up and looked down at her: "Would you like me to come in and sit down?"
Jiang Xu's expression was calm: "It's too late, I want to rest early."
Suddenly, my waist was grabbed.
He Yanting leaned against her and said, "As an engaged couple, it's normal for you to stay overnight, right?"
Jiang Xu subconsciously avoided his breath: "I'm used to sleeping alone."
He Yanting curled his lips, his voice magnetic: "I'm not talking about sleeping. You seemed to enjoy the little episode at the banquet that day."
Recalling that intimacy, Jiang Xu's breathing became uncontrollable.
In terms of bed, He Yanting was indeed excellent, both in appearance and physical strength, but...
She no longer lingered.
"I'm on my period."
Jiang Xu just wanted to get rid of him quickly.
He Yanting felt a little lost, pursed his lips, and placed his palm on her lower abdomen: "Does your stomach hurt? Do you need my help?"
Jiang Xu looked slightly stunned.
He Yanting moved closer, his nose almost touching her eyelashes: "Just like before."
"No, no, not now."
Jiang Xu felt as if he was pricked by a needle, his heart ached, and he walked back to the house in a disorderly manner and closed the door.
She laughed at herself.
It turns out that He Yanting still remembers that time.
That was the only sweet time they had together.
But everything was ruined. That year was like walking into a dream. When I woke up, I was faced with a cruel and harsh reality.
That year she was just a sophomore and was in the debate club with He Yanting.
Jiang Xueruo failed the college entrance examination and had to go to another place for closed-door study, and was passively cut off from He Yanting.
Jiang Xu often discussed things with him, and their relationship became increasingly familiar.
I remember it was a cloudy day in early summer, and it suddenly rained heavily. They didn’t bring an umbrella.
Jiang Xu stood on the high steps of the library, feeling worried.
He Yanting took off his coat, put it over his head, and said to her, "Do you want to come together?"
Jiang Xu hid in his arms, and the two ran in the heavy rain. Soon they were soaked all over, but they laughed heartily at the same time.
They stopped under a doorway with a huge sycamore tree to shelter from the rain, and He Yanting used his coat to wipe the water off her hair and face.
Suddenly, he stopped, stared at her without blinking, then lowered his head and kissed her.
His lips were soft and warm, and Jiang Xu, who was soaked all over, just wanted more.
The leaves of the sycamore tree were crackling in the rain, as if two restless young hearts were clashing with each other.
At that time, He Yanting was really good to her.
No matter how early she went downstairs in the morning, he would always be waiting for her downstairs in the dormitory with breakfast.
He looked at her with eyes that were so deep that they could show affection even to a dog, and said softly, "Ruanruan, eat it quickly, it's still hot."
When she had a stomachache during her period, he personally made her some brown sugar water and used his palms to warm her stomach.
He liked to hold her soft body and kiss her hair over and over again.
"Ruanruan, I love you so much. Will you be my baby forever?"
He asked repeatedly until Jiang Xu gave him a positive answer, and then he would not give up.
Jiang Xu has always felt inferior and believed that she stole that year from Jiang Xueruo. It was because Jiang Xueruo was not around that He Yanting gave his extra feelings to her.
As for when He Yanting changed.
Jiang Xu didn't have an exact time, but in short, he was getting colder and colder, and further and further away from her.
But Jiang Xu was unwilling to accept it. He had clearly said that he loved her the day before and promised to be with her forever. How could he change?
She tried hard to get close to him, joined Shengyu Group, and begged for a marriage proposal.
In the end, it was all in vain.
After recalling all this, Jiang Xu wiped his face and found his hands were full of tears.
I stood up and looked outside through the peephole, but He Yanting had already left.
She took out the pregnancy test form from her bag, read it from beginning to end several times, and then crumpled it into a ball.
She made up her mind, took out her mobile phone, and made an appointment for surgery on the mini program.
