Chapter 90 "Did you eat candy today? Why is your mouth so sweet?"
Xu Heyi's eyes darkened slightly, "Nuanzhu, did you eat candy today? Why is your mouth so sweet?"
"No."
As soon as she finished her rebuttal, Xu Heyi raised his hand and hugged Jiang Nuanzhu on his lap, covering her with his thin lips, and his low, magnetic voice lingered in her ears.
"Then let me try it?"
After the kiss, Mr. Xu looked at Jiang Nuanzhu with a smile on his lips: "I really didn't eat candy."
Jiang Nuanzhu was slightly annoyed: "If someone comes in..."
"No." Xu Heyi hugged her, resting his head on Jiang Nuanzhu's shoulder, and said to himself: "Mrs. Xu is also very sweet even without eating candy."
Jiang Nuanzhu's face turned red because of the naked teasing in his words.
Xu Heyi said, feeding the candy in his hand to Jiang Nuanzhu's mouth, and coaxing her in a low voice: "A token of apology. Mrs. Xu, please don't be angry with me anymore."
Jiang Nuanzhu was a little angry at first, but when she met his gentle and deep eyes behind the glasses, she was immediately bewitched.
She whispered, "Not angry."
Open your mouth and eat the candy obediently.
Bickering between husband and wife is a kind of fun, so she is not so easily angry.
Noticing that Xu Heyi's eyes were getting hotter and hotter, Jiang Nuanzhu quickly got off him.
She laid out the cakes and side dishes.
"They are freshly made, so eat them while they are hot. They won't taste good if they are cold."
Xu Heyi took the initiative to help and quickly put everything in place.
Jiang Nuanzhu served a bowl of Lixia porridge for him and herself, "I've tried it, Auntie's porridge tastes very good."
Xu Heyi lowered his eyes and quietly stirred the porridge in the bowl: "This is the first time I drink this."
"Haven't you ever had it before?"
"The Xu family doesn't like to celebrate trivial matters."
Jiang Nuanzhu thought of the Xu family's situation and looked at him tenderly, "From now on, our family will live on its own."
Xu Heyi raised his eyes and said slowly, "We will live alone?"
"Yeah." Jiang Nuanzhu looked at him and said seriously, "From now on, we will celebrate every holiday together."
Later, maybe there will be a third person.
Xu Heyi responded solemnly: "I'm starting to look forward to it."
He couldn't help but raise his hand and touch Mrs. Xu's face, "Why are you suddenly so proactive today?"
Jiang Nuanzhu imitated his slow and unhurried tone.
"Don't you like it?"
Xu Heyi: "I like it. But I'm a little worried it might just be a flash in the pan."
Jiang Nuanzhu's heart trembled, her eyes sparkling, "No. Xu Heyi, don't you believe me?"
"No, I believe you."
He just felt it was a little unreal.
While drinking porridge, Jiang Nuanzhu suddenly asked, "Are you going to work overtime tonight?"
Xu Heyi's eyes darkened, thinking Jiang Nuanzhu was hinting at something, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "No overtime."
"Shall we go see Grandpa?"
This grandpa refers to Grandpa Jiang.
A hint of surprise flashed across Xu Heyi's eyes.
Jiang Nuanzhu asked in a low voice: "Is it inconvenient for you to go?"
Xu Heyi: "No, I just didn't expect you to say this."
"So what did you think I was going to say?"
Xu Heyi remained silent and looked at her quietly.
Jiang Nuanzhu recalled what he had asked.
Do you have to work overtime at night?
The red data line flashed through my mind again, and the temperature on my cheeks gradually rose.
Ever since the last incident, Jiang Nuanzhu has been unable to look directly at any charging cable.
She now asks Aunt Fang for help when charging her mobile phone.
Jiang Nuanzhu lifted a strand of hair and deliberately changed the subject: "Every year on the beginning of summer, my grandmother would specially cook a pot of Beginning of Summer porridge and give some to all the neighbors. She would also weave a net out of rope and hang an egg on it for me. Back then, there were always children who loved to come to my house and we would all play egg fighting together. It was so lively."
"Grandpa also loves to be lively. He would specially invite a few old friends to drink tea and weave bamboo dragonflies for Qingyin and me."
Xu Heyi listened quietly, "Then let's go to grandpa's place tonight and stay there too?"
Jiang Nuanzhu happily agreed: "Yeah."
After dinner, Xu Heyi packed up his things.
When Jiang Nuanzhu was visiting Xu Heyi's office, she was attracted by the ugly-looking pumpkin cup on his desk at first sight.
Xu Heyi came over after throwing away the garbage.
Jiang Nuanzhu pointed at the pumpkin cup and was a little surprised: "Why did you bring the cup to the company?"
"No?" Xu Heyi asked in a calm voice.
Jiang Nuanzhu was a little embarrassed: "I bought it for you to use at home. I'm afraid people will laugh at you for using such an ugly cup at work..."
Jiang Nuanzhu finally understood what Fu Qingyin meant by the collapse of character.
Xu Heyi's office is decorated in ancient Chinese style, low-key yet textured.
This ugly green squash really doesn't fit in.
Xu Heyi pondered for a moment: "But I only have one cup."
Jiang Nuanzhu fell into Xu Heyi's trap and said, "I'll buy you a suitable one when I have time. Just keep this one at home."
Xu Heyi was very obedient: "I'll follow your arrangements."
Jiang Nuanzhu had indeed planned to give Xu Heyi some other gifts a long time ago, but the more she looked online, the harder it was to find one she liked.
At this moment, Xu Heyi said that he only had one cup...
How could he only have one cup?
Jiang Nuanzhu suddenly realized that the most profound path she had ever walked was probably Mr. Xu's routine.
Xu Heyi had already finished the previous topic with satisfaction and asked Jiang Nuanzhu: "How about taking a lunch break here later?"
He knew that Jiang Nuanzhu had the habit of taking a nap after dinner.
"Here?" Jiang Nuanzhu was stunned.
Xu Heyi raised his eyes and looked to the left: "There is a small bedroom there, very quiet."
Jiang Nuanzhu hesitated a little: "Isn't this a bad idea? Will it affect your work?"
Xu Heyi: "I think Mrs. Xu should stay a little longer."
Jiang Nuanzhu's face immediately turned red, "...Okay."
Since Xu Heyi said so, how could she refuse?
The two chatted about daily trivial matters.
For example, after the flowers in the small garden were rained in the morning, they bloomed more, and there were several roses of special colors that Jiang Nuanzhu didn’t recognize.
After listening to her description, Xu Heyi told her the names one by one.
The roses were fine, but the pear blossoms were hit by the rain and fell all over the ground. Jiang Nuanzhu felt a little sorry for the flowers.
Xu Heyi mentioned that when he went to the Jiang family's old house, he would ask his grandfather for some pear blossom tea and pear blossom pastry.
It made Jiang Nuanzhu laugh.
"If you do this, I'm afraid grandpa won't welcome us."
"How come?"
Seeing how much Jiang Nuanzhu liked flowers, Xu Heyi suggested, "When we have some free time later, why don't we plant another osmanthus tree in the garden?"
Jiang Nuanzhu's eyes lit up: "This way, in the autumn, not only can I smell the fragrance of osmanthus, but I can also eat osmanthus cake."
Xu Heyi smiled and said, "I didn't realize you were such a foodie."
Jiang Nuanzhu wasn't afraid of being teased, "Yes, there's nothing wrong with loving to eat. But you have to remember what you promised."
She stretched out her hands and counted: "You promised me to go to Zhongming Temple in winter to see the red plum blossoms and snow, and now you have agreed to plant osmanthus trees with me. That's two things."
Jiang Nuanzhu childishly made the number two with her hand and waved it in front of Xu Heyi.
Xu Heyi smiled and held her in his arms, gently biting her earlobe. His voice was low and deep, revealing an indescribable joy.
"I dare not forget..."
The empty and quiet office is filled with a faint warmth.
Jiang Nuanzhu and Xu Heyi stuck together for a while and then began to feel sleepy.
Xu Heyi took her to the bedroom to rest, and watched Jiang Nuanzhu fall asleep before coming out to continue working.
Jiang Nuanzhu didn't sleep well.
One is that I am used to my bed, and the other is that when I am half asleep and half awake, I always feel like there is someone next to me.
She tried to open her eyes, but they were empty again.
After getting up, I felt a little listless.
Xu Heyi took some time out to accompany her.
Jiang Nuanzhu nestled in Xu Heyi's arms, smelling his scent, and actually closed her eyes for a while.
By the time everyone was fully awake, it was already 5:30 in the afternoon.
