Jiang Yu didn't close the curtains last night, and at 7:15 this morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the trees.
Chen Cixiu was awakened by the sunlight after seven hours of sleep.
Her eyelids opened because of the light, and when she reached out, she found that her hand had just touched Jiang Yu's neck, so she had to use her left hand to block the light.
As his vision gradually returned, he slowly opened his eyes.
He saw Jiang Yu with his back to him, rubbing his aching temples.
Gently turn over and press yourself close to her.
Sensing something, Jiang Yu murmured softly.
But he did not wake up.
Chen Cixiu held her like that, and slept peacefully in bed for another hour, making up for the eight hours of sleep he had needed.
Jiang Yu's movements were a bit too vigorous when she woke up, which is why he was woken up.
"morning."
The two looked at each other, and Jiang Yu mouthed "Good morning."
Chen Cixiu smiled slightly.
The two of them rolled over almost simultaneously, facing the ceiling, stretched, and got up to wash up.
Upon arriving in the living room, Chen Cixiu saw only his uncle and aunt inside and greeted the two elderly people very politely.
The Jiang family doesn't have those cumbersome rules, like having to wait until everyone is present before eating. This kind of rule is mostly reserved for family banquets, New Year's celebrations, or other grand occasions.
Yesterday was already a grand occasion, so there's no need for another grand occasion today.
"Yu Yu, when are you and Xiao Chen going back?" Auntie asked Jiang Yu with concern.
Of all her grandchildren, nephews, and nieces, her aunt's favorite was Jiang Yu.
Even Jiang Lin's granddaughter is not as good as Jiang Yu.
This is also because she raised Jiang Yu.
"Auntie, Cixiu and I will head back after we finish eating. There are so many things waiting for me at the company, I can't leave them unattended," Jiang Yu said with a smile, holding her hand.
"Sigh, you're still like this even after getting married." Auntie's gaze fell on Chen Cixiu, and she comforted him, "Xiao Chen, Yuyu has been like this since she was little. Don't think she's too busy. If she does anything wrong, I hope you can think about it first before you speak. You can't argue with Yuyu in a fit of pique."
Chen Cixiu understood that this was an old man's love for his children.
"Auntie, don't worry. I have no right to ask Yuyu not to be busy. I'm busy too, so it's unreasonable for me to ask Yuyu to stop taking care of me."
Chen Cixiu said with a smile.
"I'm relieved that you think that way. Come on, Xiao Chen, have a taste. I made this myself this morning. See if it suits your taste."
Auntie smiled.
Chen Cixiu's answer satisfied her.
After breakfast, most of the family members were still asleep. Jiang Yu was also in a hurry to go back. She did this every year. This year was better because of Chen Cixiu.
Otherwise, she would sometimes go straight home after finishing her dinner.
She would probably go back before dawn the next day at the latest.
"Are you sure you don't need to tell your parents? That wouldn't be appropriate, would it?"
Sitting in the car, Chen Cixiu still felt that doing so made him seem impolite.
"No need, I already told my uncle and aunt. Let's go, we still have a bunch of documents waiting to be processed at the company." Jiang Yu shook her head, indicating that it was no problem.
"All right."
Chen Cixiu started the accelerator and drove towards the city.
The uncle and aunt watched them leave from the doorway.
Not long after Chen Cixiu and Jiang Yu left, President Jiang and the others gradually woke up.
They all said that next time they should have Cixiu hold Jiang Yu down, because he always walks so fast and never gives himself a break.
Ms. Liu Xian disagreed.
What's the point of staying?
Stay here to tutor your son and daughter? That would be a waste of time.
On the way, Chen Cixiu still felt it was very impolite, and he was worried that he had left a bad impression on the Jiang family today.
Jiang Yu explained, "Don't worry, you won't leave a bad impression on them. On the contrary, everyone likes you except for the children. I guess next time I'll have to bring Gu Qianqian, and I won't let Gu Qianqian drink alcohol."
Why?
Chen Cixiu asked curiously.
“I reckon they’ll definitely want you to keep me here next time, and then stay for a few more days. I understand all too well. That’s how my older brother was kept here by my sister-in-law before. They secretly told my sister-in-law that my older brother should get some rest and not run away every day. That’s how my older brother was kept here by my sister-in-law. They have a precedent to follow.”
Jiang Yu said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Chen Cixiu looked at Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu looked at him and asked, "How do I look? Do I look good today?"
Chen Cixiu laughed. This was getting more and more amusing. Thinking about President Jiang's icy demeanor at the beginning and how he looked now, he was very pleased. "When has President Jiang ever been anything but good-looking?"
Jiang Yu picked up a candy, tore off the wrapper, and handed it to him. Chen Cixiu took a bite. "Little brother's little mouth is so sweet. Here's a candy for you."
"Actually, I would prefer a different reward."
"The conditions here don't allow it."
Jiang Yudao.
Chen Cixiu asked in surprise, "Sister, all I wanted to do was ask you to kiss my hand. How did it become a condition that I can't have?"
His mischievous gaze was something Jiang Yu couldn't guard against at all.
"Chen Cixiu, you...you..."
Fortunately, the phone call interrupted their flirting.
It was Tian Xin calling.
"Hello?"
Chen Cixiu answered the phone.
"Mr. Chen, there's a snack shop in Xijiang, in an ancient town. My friend contacted me today and said that the snack shop is only famous locally. Do you want to take some time to go there? If it's really delicious, we can do a review on the spot, and then our account will be up and running. You can also film a good episode about Xijiang food, and try to find as many ancient towns as possible that haven't been commercialized yet, and try the snacks there."
The phone was on speakerphone, so Jiang Yu could hear it too.
Chen Cixiu said, "Sure, when are we going?"
"Of course, the sooner the better. This was just discovered. There are no businesses in the ancient city yet, so we don't want anything to go wrong. Anyway, you don't have anything major going on lately."
Tian Xin said.
"Okay, I'll go and come back on the same day."
It's very close to Xijiang from here; the high-speed train takes only about two hours.
"Okay, it's settled then. I'll send you the address. The round trip will take about eight hours. If you go to the high-speed rail station now, you can be back this afternoon."
Tian Xin said.
"Okay, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Ci was about to speak with Jiang Yu when he discovered that she had already filled in the nearest high-speed rail station on the navigation app.
It takes about an hour to get to the high-speed rail station.
“I was thinking of taking you back before I went,” Chen Cixiu said.
"No need, it's not like I can't drive myself. Just call me when you get there."
Jiang Yu said.
Chen Cixiu smiled slightly; the tacit understanding between them was growing stronger.
What he said to his aunt this morning is the best proof.
