This is all so weird.
Throwing the towel aside, Xie Jing gradually lost herself in thought...
"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Jiyun had finished the video conference a long time ago and had even stared at Xie Jing for two minutes. But Xie Jing was just half-leaning on the chaise longue, her eyes flickering, and it was obvious that she was thinking.
Xie Jing came back to her senses and glanced at the closed notebook: "Huh? Are you done?"
"I'm done," Zhou Jiyun nodded. He moved slightly, resting his arms on the sofa, and asked again, "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm wondering why you love me." Xie Jing lowered her eyes and looked at Zhou Jiyun. She couldn't help but scratch his chin. In fact, from her angle, there didn't seem to be much difference between Zhou Jiyun and Diandian.
Also sitting on the ground, also looking up at her.
Zhou Jiyun's mind raced. Xie Jing had said the same thing the last time. But that time, she'd said there was plenty of time to go, and wasn't in a rush for an answer. Now, she began to search for the underlying reasons.
What does this mean?
Zhou Jiyun's Adam's apple moved: "Is Jingjing attracted to me?"
Xie Jing has always been frank: "Yes, that's why I want to know the reason. Although many people say that love happens without reason or warning, what I'm trying to find out is not why you love me, but why you suddenly changed so much."
Xie Jing doesn't like lying because once she tells a lie, she needs to lie a lot more to cover it up. Many times, she would rather not say anything than lie, but once she opens her mouth, Xie Jing will basically tell the truth.
Zhou Jiyun loved this about her the most, but at the same time, he also disliked this about her the most. Although she spoke the truth, all the unspoken words were hidden in her heart. No one knew what Xie Jing was thinking.
Zhou Jiyun frowned slightly: "Do you really want to know?"
"Yes, I really want to know." Xie Jing leaned back slightly: "You only have one chance to confess. If you miss it, you miss it."
"I didn't say I wouldn't be honest with you," Zhou Jiyun laughed. He took Xie Jing's hand and pinched the soft fingertips: "I was just thinking about where to start. I was even afraid of scaring you."
"As long as you don't commit crimes or do anything immoral, I can accept everything else." Xie Jing lowered her eyes and looked at him. In Xie Jing's opinion, as long as Zhou Jiyun was not a bad person, she could accept it no matter what the reason was.
Zhou Jiyun reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief: "Really?"
Xie Jing thought about it: "Really, so why?"
Zhou Jiyun looked up at Xie Jing with an extremely serious look in his eyes: "Jingjing, do you believe in rebirth?"
"Rebirth?" Xie Jing raised an eyebrow. "I don't read many novels, but I seem to have heard of this term. I don't know the details."
She thought for a moment and said, "Well, you don't have to tell me today. I'll do my homework these few days."
Zhou Jiyun was stunned, and for the first time, confusion appeared in his eyes: "Doing homework? What homework?"
Xie Jing shook her phone. "Don't you read novels? This kind of rebirth plot is so overwritten. But I don't usually read them, so I can't explain anything to you. Let me finish my homework first."
Zhou Jiyun was stunned: "Is this... very common?"
"To be precise, it's very common in novels," Xie Jing said with a smile, "As for real life, I haven't heard of it."
Zhou Jiyun's heart suddenly dropped to his stomach. Xie Jing wasn't frightened, but instead decided to conduct theoretical research on her own. This was already very good. At least she didn't think he was talking nonsense or making up excuses.
Xie Jing leaned forward slightly, a rare look of curiosity in her eyes, "I just have one question now."
Zhou Jiyun raised his eyebrows: "What's the problem?"
Xie Jing smiled playfully: "How old are you?"
Zhou Jiyun burst out laughing. He never expected Xie Jing's focus to be here. Instead of answering, he asked, "How old do you think I am?"
"Well, you still act with such vigor and energy. I guess you can't be very old." Xie Jing glanced at him. "No more than thirty-five?"
"Yes, if you count my age in my previous life, I should be thirty-four." Zhou Jiyun sighed and kneaded Xie Jing's fingers again; "I thought you would be scared."
Xie Jing laughed: "How can I be so easily frightened? Didn't I tell you? As long as you don't commit crimes or do anything immoral, I can accept everything else."
"Actually, if you think about it, this reason does explain everything."
Zhou Jiyun suddenly took two steps on his knees and buried his head in Xie Jing's abdomen. Feeling the coolness of his pajamas, Xie Jing touched the back of his head and asked, "Why are you so fond of crying?"
"I'm so happy, I'm crying." Zhou Jiyun nudged Xie Jing's abdomen. "It's like the guillotine is halfway down, and the psychological burden has suddenly been reduced by half."
Xie Jing wanted to say that the guillotine hadn't completely fallen, but after seeing Zhou Jiyun's happy expression, she softened her heart: "Okay, I'll do the rest of the homework, now it's time to rest."
Zhou Jiyun suddenly picked up Xie Jing horizontally. This time, Xie Jing did not panic at all. She tapped Zhou Jiyun's shoulder and said, "I have an early morning snack tomorrow. Call me when you get up early."
Zhou Jiyun responded: "Okay, how about I take you to school?"
"No need to take a detour." Xie Jing said with a smile: "Besides, I only have two classes tomorrow. After class, I will go to Rongsheng to find you."
Zhou Jiyun was happy: "Are you really going to the company to find me?"
Xie Jing also smiled: "I am a person who keeps his promises, and isn't this what you asked for? It's just a good opportunity for me to have lunch with you, and then I will go home and do my own things."
Zhou Jiyun put Xie Jing on the edge of the bed and half-knelt beside it. Xie Jing lowered her eyes to look at him: "What's wrong?"
Zhou Jiyun clenched and unclenched his fingers, then clenched and unclenched them again. After a long pause, he finally spoke: "Can I make a second request?"
Xie Jing also sat up straight: "What request?"
Zhou Jiyun looked at Xie Jing almost pleadingly: "Even if... even if we quarrel in the future, can you... can you not live out and come home?"
Xie Jing can be said to be extremely smart. As soon as she saw Zhou Jiyun's expression, she knew that there must be something going on between them, and it might even be a big deal.
She paused, and finally softened her heart: "Okay, I promise you, but I have a good temper. If you don't deliberately lie to me and hide it from me, there shouldn't be a quarrel between us."
Zhou Jiyun probed: "Even if...even if we had many misunderstandings in our previous life?"
"You also said it was from your previous life," Xie Jing smiled. "I think you've gone a little crazy, because only you know these things, and I don't. Who knows if the me in this life is the same person as the me in your memory from your previous life?"
"It's the same person," Zhou Jiyun said seriously, "You are my only wife."
Xie Jing laughed. Sometimes she felt that Zhou Jiyun really wasn't as smart as he looked. For example, his few words had already revealed a lot.
