Chapter 67 "So Mrs. Xu gave me her favorite thing?"
Jiang Nuanzhu leaned on Xu Heyi's chest, listening to his steady heartbeat, feeling more calm and peaceful than ever before.
However, she was afraid that Aunt Fang would come out, so she quickly let go of Xu Heyi.
Their eyes accidentally met, their gazes lingered, and a trace of affection quietly grew.
The clock in the living room ticked, the sound of Aunt Fang cooking could be faintly heard in the kitchen, and there was a faint scent of roses in the air.
At this moment, I actually feel that time is peaceful and tranquil.
Xu Heyi looked at Jiang Nuanzhu with serious eyes.
The woman's fair and delicate skin was tinged with a faint red, her eyes were watery and bright as stars, and she was incredibly beautiful.
His Adam's apple rolled unconsciously.
Unfortunately, it was daytime now, so it was not convenient to bully Mrs. Xu.
He suppressed his strange feeling and held Jiang Nuanzhu's hand: "I'll have someone clean up the other rooms later. After dinner, you and your bestie can do whatever you want."
"good."
Jiang Nuanzhu agreed, but forgot to ask Xu Heyi which rooms to clean.
Xu Heyi helped her put all the gifts away.
When Jiang Nuanzhu put away her hairpin and cosmetics, she saw the pumpkin water cup on her desk.
Compared with Xu Heyi's gift, her gift doesn't seem to be that impressive?
While I was hesitating, Xu Heyi pushed the door open.
The man's sleeves were half rolled up, revealing his strong forearms.
He walked closer: "The painting is hung. Do you want to go down and take a look?"
Jiang Nuanzhu held the pumpkin water cup and looked up at him, her delicate eyebrows and eyes always showing a bit of mischief.
She confessed, "I have a gift I want to give you, but I don't think it's good enough."
Xu Heyi glanced at the ugly yet cute water cup in her hand and suddenly smiled faintly: "It looks pretty good."
"Really?" Jiang Nuanzhu's voice was a little tender: "Don't try to trick me!"
Xu Heyi said in a deep voice: "Compared to the gift, I like Mrs. Xu's thoughtfulness more."
He also emphasized: "This is the first time Mrs. Xu gave me a gift."
Xu Heyi's gaze was fixed on the water cup, his eyes saying "I want" two words.
Jiang Nuanzhu handed him the cup with a smile.
But she was thinking that she would go and choose a more expensive gift for Xu Heyi in a couple of days.
His Mr. Xu also deserves better.
Xu Heyi took the cup and looked at it, then asked gently, "Why did you think of giving me this?"
Jiang Nuanzhu smiled and said, "Don't you think it's both ugly and cute, super adorable? When we were at the mall, it immediately touched my heart!"
"So Mrs. Xu gave me her favorite thing?"
Jiang Nuanzhu felt a little embarrassed by his words.
“It seems to be true?”
After she finished speaking, she started laughing. Her smile was so sweet that it touched people's hearts, and there seemed to be stars twinkling in her eyes.
Xu Heyi's dark eyes looked at her quietly, his face full of doting.
The captivating aura had long been completely suppressed.
After a long while, he finally said in a deep voice: "I really like Mrs. Xu's kindness."
Jiang Nuanzhu whispered, "I also like Mr. Xu's kindness."
With fingers tightly clasped, the two hearts draw closer quietly.
At around eleven thirty, Fu Qingyin drove Jian Li to the door.
The two of them were holding gifts in their hands and smiling.
Xu Heyi pushed Jiang Nuanzhu to greet the guests.
Jian Li started by teasing, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, is this the legendary "a short separation makes a new marriage better than a new one"? Boss Jiang looks so good, it's like you could squeeze water out of him!"
Fu Qingyin: “…”
Jiang Nuanzhu looked calm and asked with concern: "I see that you have dark circles under your eyes. Are you too tired recently?"
Jian Li was stabbed in the heart.
Fu Qingyin covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "She has been very busy recently. She has to go to class every day and has no time to call and bother me."
In the past, when Jian Li had nothing to do, she loved to call and harass Jiang Nuanzhu and Fu Qingyin, and she always brought them a lot of explosive gossip.
She even called it a way to keep in touch.
"Boss Jiang, don't you know why I'm so busy?" Jian Li gave him a resentful look and said aggrievedly, "Alas! It's true that you only see the new people laughing, but not the old ones crying. Thinking back to those piles of love letters back then, they were all..."
Xu Heyi said in a low voice: "Love letter?"
Jiang Nuanzhu's eyelids twitched, and she changed the subject in time: "Someone recently submitted a resume to me. I took a look and it's not bad."
"Really?" Jian Li's eyes lit up.
Jiang Nuanzhu nodded: "I have an interview scheduled for the day after tomorrow. If it goes through, you won't have to work overtime."
Jian Li's expression changed instantly, and she immediately said with a smile: "As expected, Boss Jiang still cares about me."
She looked at Xu Heyi cheerfully: "Boss, you heard wrongly. I'm not talking about a love letter, I'm talking about a letter."
Boss lady?
Jiang Nuanzhu gritted her teeth secretly and wanted to sew Jian Li's mouth shut.
Xu Heyi calmly accepted the address from the proprietress and said calmly, "Come in and sit down first."
Fu Qingyin sat on the sofa and asked in confusion: "What boss lady?"
"The news has spread all over the dance studio." Jian Li was in high spirits, actively spreading the gossip. "It was said that Wen Ying liked Boss Jiang's kettle and wanted to buy one too. Later, he found out it was a gift from the boss's wife, so he specially gave Boss Jiang ten kilograms of wolfberry and astragalus, and asked him to use the cup the boss's wife gave him every day."
Jiang Nuanzhu was so embarrassed that she could use her toes to scratch the plaster, but she was worried about Xu Heyi being present and couldn't properly "teach" Jian Li a lesson.
After hearing this, Fu Qingyin also laughed uncontrollably.
"Boss lady?"
She looked at the calm and dignified Xu Heyi, and thought of the pumpkin cup bought by Jiang Nuanzhu.
Suddenly I feel that Brother Xu, whom I have respected for many years...his personality has collapsed a bit.
The three sisters were talking and laughing.
Xu Heyi sat next to Jiang Nuanzhu, slowly making tea.
"I'm thirsty, have some tea."
He poured tea for the three of them calmly and warned Jiang Nuanzhu in a calm voice: "Be careful, it's hot."
Jiang Nuanzhu's cheeks flushed slightly: "Yeah."
Jian Li was drinking tea and her eyes rolled around when she saw the two interacting.
I accidentally burned my tongue.
“Ouch…”
She covered her tongue, looking painful.
Fu Qingyin poured her a glass of cold water and smiled helplessly: "Be careful! Why are you drinking so quickly? Are you afraid that you'll miss a sip of tea?"
After drinking a sip of cold water, Jian Li took off the mask of pain.
She tutted her tongue twice and continued to act suicidal. "This is the tea that Mr. Xu poured for me. If it weren't for my Nuanzhu, I probably wouldn't be able to drink it in my lifetime."
After teasing, she saw Fu Qingyin drinking tea from the corner of her eye and immediately imitated Xu Heyi's calm tone, "Be careful, it's hot."
Jiang Nuanzhu stood there in shock.
Fu Qingyin was almost scalded, with a look of astonishment on his face: "You..."
Jian Li blinked innocently, "I just care about you, don't think too much."
Fu Qingyin: "...I'm afraid you are a dramatic actor!"
Jiang Nuanzhu suppressed the twitching corners of his mouth and calmly placed the teapot in front of her.
"My boss Xu made it."
"Drink as much as you want!"
Jian Li looked at the large pot of tea and instantly became timid, "...Qing Yin is right, there is no need to rush!"
Fu Qingyin and Jiang Nuanzhu burst into laughter immediately.
Even Xu Heyi couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips.
