Chapter 123 Don’t you want to try what it feels like to be remembered by others?
The next few days.
Xu Jialan was originally thinking of finding an excuse to sleep separately from Shen Xichuan for a few days.
Unexpectedly, it was Shen Xichuan who got busy first.
Sometimes, while chatting, the message is not replied.
Every time Shen Xichuan didn't reply to the message, Xu Jialan's attention would be diverted to the phone.
Keep an eye on his news.
See when he completes the mission safely.
People in the laboratory also noticed her changes.
Fang Zhiyun felt the deepest.
But she didn't know what was going on and thought that the previous news on the Internet had affected Xu Jialan.
"Professor Xu, if you're not feeling well, you can actually take a few days off to rest. We can handle all of this, so don't worry."
Xu Jialan came back to his senses and looked up, "I'm not feeling unwell."
Fang Zhiyun was stunned for a moment, "Then you..."
Still staring at your phone?
Xu Jialan paused before realizing what Fang Zhiyun meant.
She took a deep breath and said, "I'm fine. Could you please make me some coffee?"
Fang Zhiyun nodded, "Okay."
"Wait." Xu Jialan stopped her, "I want a hot American coffee."
"OK."
Fang Zhiyun left the office.
Xu Jialan turned around on the floor, then stood up and looked at the scenery outside the window.
Her eyebrows were slightly wrinkled and her arms were folded across her chest.
I don’t know what he is thinking.
…
After get off work in the evening.
An Yuening came specifically to find Xu Jialan to eat hotpot together.
After placing the order, the food was served quickly.
The steaming hot pot.
An Yuening put the meat that Xu Jialan liked to eat into the pot of clear water, and after it was cooked, she put it into her bowl.
Xu Jialan lowered her eyes to look at her phone, the light from the screen hitting her face.
An Yuening sighed helplessly, "Are you so worried about him?"
I have been feeling absent-minded these past few days.
Xu Jialan came back to his senses, put down his phone, picked up the Coke and took a sip before saying, "I'm worried. How could I not be worried?"
An Yuening took a bite of meat and said, "Then you have never thought about letting him retire? What's more, the Shen family..."
She paused before continuing, "The Shen family probably really wants him to return to the company, right?"
"His parents really hope so." Xu Jialan held a Coke, "but I don't want him to give up his ideal."
"So, you just let yourself worry and feel uncomfortable every day, and you don't want him to feel uncomfortable."
An Yuening looked at her friend helplessly.
Xu Jialan picked up some meat for her and said, "I'm fine. I'm just worried about someone, so I'm like this."
She looked at An Yuening, "What about you? Don't you want to experience what it feels like to be remembered by someone?"
An Yuening paused, "You know?"
Xu Jialan smiled. "His mother came to have dinner with me yesterday. We happened to talk about how my eldest brother has been leaving home early and coming back late recently. I heard that he has changed a lot of clothes and perfumes at home. I guess he is chasing girls. I guessed it."
At this point, An Yuening sighed to herself, "You know, I don't want to get married."
"I know." Xu Jialan nodded. "If you really don't want to, then just reject him directly. But you are hesitating now. Isn't it because you have him in your heart?"
An Yuening glanced at her and said, "You really understand me."
Xu Jialan smiled, picked up the Coke, and clinked glasses with her, "Of course."
An Yuening was helpless and took a sip of Coke. "I am hesitant. I am clearly ready not to get married, but I don't know why. When I look at his face, I can't say it out loud."
"Actually, you can tell your brother. Maybe he will agree?" Xu Jialan said.
"Agree?" An Yuening looked at her. "There are only two brothers in the entire Shen family. One goes to fight fires and disaster relief, and the other inherits the family business. Do you think the future head of the Shen family can choose not to get married or have children?"
"Even if he agrees, what about his parents? And the rest of the Shen family? How could they possibly agree?"
Xu Jialan blinked.
"Otherwise, unless your man retires and returns to the Shen family, then I can consider it."
Xu Jialan: “…”
She also sighed, "So you're just going to keep dragging it out?"
An Yuening's expression was also very conflicted, "What else can I do?"
The two looked at each other and sighed.
…
Mid-November.
Mrs. Shen called Xu Jialan and asked about their plans for the wedding photo shoot.
Xu Jialan was stunned for several seconds before he reacted.
She sat in the study, pressing her forehead, "Mom, I'm sorry, I was so busy that I forgot about this."
Mrs. Shen smiled gently, "What's there to say sorry about? Wedding photos can be taken anytime. If you're busy, we can postpone it for a while."
Xu Jialan pursed his lips.
She knew that Mrs. Shen’s words were meant to comfort her.
The Shen family is a large family, and there must be a lot of things to prepare for the wedding, and they are very trivial.
Mrs. Shen had never told her the details of these things, but she probably knew that they would definitely be very troublesome.
The wedding photo issue has indeed been delayed for a long time.
Either she is busy or Shen Xichuan is busy.
Sooner or later it will be decided.
"Let me ask...Achuan, if time is not a problem, can we take the wedding photos before the end of the month?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Shen's eyes lit up, "Of course, you can, just see when the time is set, and leave everything else to mom, I will arrange it."
Xu Jialan's lips curled up slightly, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mom."
“It’s not hard, it’s not hard.”
After they chatted for a while, they hung up the phone.
Xu Jialan was just getting up, holding a cup and preparing to pour water.
As I walked into the living room, I heard a sound coming from the door.
She looked over subconsciously.
Then I saw Shen Xichuan push the door and walk in.
"You're back?"
There was a hint of surprise in his tone.
Shen Xichuan curled his lips, stood at the entrance, and stretched out his hand to her, “Lanlan, come here and give me a hug.”
Xu Jialan put down the cup, ran towards him, and hugged the man's neck tightly with his hands.
Shen Xichuan bent down and hugged her waist.
"Did you miss me?" he asked in a low voice.
Xu Jialan's eyes curved, he pursed his lips, and whispered, "I want to."
I miss you very much.
Shen Xichuan pressed the back of her head, tilted her head slightly, and kissed her hair.
"I missed you, too."
Hearing this, Xu Jialan smiled.
Shen Xichuan hugged her waist tightly, squinted his eyes, and looked down at her, "Did you forget to eat again?"
Xu Jialan blinked and said, "No."
"Then why are you still thin?"
The man's hand was still around her waist.
"How come? I feel fat?"
"Yeah?"
"Of course."
Shen Xichuan put his arm around her waist and walked inside holding her.
Xu Jialan subconsciously hugged his neck tightly.
The man walked straight into the cloakroom.
She put a scale in it.
He knows.
Shen Xichuan put her directly next to the scale and pointed with his chin, “Go ahead, weigh it and let me see.”
Xu Jialan: “…”
He was indeed a bit annoyed.
Shen Xichuan looked at her, “Xu Jialan, you can’t act like a spoiled child.”
Xu Jialan pretended not to hear and reached out to grab his fingers. "I'm suddenly hungry again. Why don't we go get some midnight snack?"
Shen Xichuan was indifferent, looking at her with a half-smile, “Are you going up by yourself, or are you going with me now?”
Xu Jialan blinked and asked, "Where to?"
