As soon as Jiang Yu walked into the kitchen, Wen Yanqing followed in with a big bag in her hand.
Hearing footsteps behind him, Jiang Yu looked up and asked, "Why isn't Comrade Wen inside making dumplings with them?"
"I'll come and help you." Wen Yanqing said as he walked in and handed over the bag in his hand: "This is your birthday present. Happy birthday!"
Jiang Yu took it and opened it, only to see a military green coat inside.
It is not easy to get a military coat, even harder than buying Dacron.
Even if he has connections and relationships, she can't pretend to know nothing just because of his heart.
The light from above shone on her face, making it look even whiter and more delicate.
Jiang Yu tilted her head and smiled, "Thank you, Comrade Wen, but there's one question I don't quite understand."
Wen Yanqing looked at her with dark eyes: "What's the problem?"
"Why is Comrade Wen so nice to me?"
The cool autumn wind made the leaves outside rustle, and the subtle fragrance of osmanthus drifted in, casting an ambiguous atmosphere on such a night.
The kitchen was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and Jiang Yu's voice was extremely clear.
"You... don't you like me?"
After Jiang Yu said this, she stared at him with a pair of smiling almond-shaped eyes.
The air in the kitchen began to heat up. Although it was already autumn, people felt inexplicably hot.
Wen Yanqing blushed, and her ears and neck also turned red.
He looked at Jiang Yu, his heart beating faster and faster, almost jumping out of his throat uncontrollably.
Didn’t Zhou Yan say that girls are more shy?
Why is there no trace of shyness on her face?
He had come to the kitchen on purpose, originally wanting to find an opportunity to explain their relationship clearly.
Who would have thought that before he even opened his mouth, she asked him bluntly whether he liked her, catching him off guard!
Although things were somewhat beyond his expectations and disrupted his plans.
However, since he has confirmed his feelings for her, he will definitely not deny it, nor will he play hard to get at this time.
Wen Yanqing took a deep breath, stared at her with his dark eyes, and said word by word: "Yes, I like you, Comrade Jiang."
Yes, I like you, Comrade Jiang.
His voice was deep and clear, resounding on a night like this.
It's like a feather gently scratching the tip of your heart, making you feel itchy.
Jiang Yu looked at him.
He stood under the incandescent light, and the light made his facial features extremely three-dimensional, with long and thick eyelashes, a straight nose, and black eyes staring at her without blinking.
She had heard men's confessions many times before she entered the book. She had heard them no matter how direct or passionate they were. However, she remained indifferent because she did not want to waste her time on feelings.
Compared with them, Wen Yanqing's words seemed simple and plain, but they were the most romantic confession she had ever heard and the one that moved her the most.
She saw everything he had done for her before.
If she said she didn't feel anything, she would be lying.
In her previous life, due to the development of the Internet, the conflict between men and women was serious, and the divorce rate was high, which made her extremely afraid of marriage. She even thought about flying abroad to have a baby through in vitro fertilization. So when she came here and found that she had a child but no father, she chose the same path as in her previous life without hesitation - to get rid of the father and keep the son.
But later, Wen Yanqing's repeated appearance and help made her have different ideas.
So she decided to be brave for once and give him and herself a chance. If she won, everyone would be happy. If she lost, at most she would just go back to the starting point. Thinking of this, she felt that there was nothing to be afraid of.
"Comrade Wen..."
"Comrade Jiang..."
The two voices rang out simultaneously.
Wen Yanqing felt his whole body tense up when she stared at him, and his heart beat so fast that he almost couldn't bear it.
He was just about to ask her if she was willing to date him, but unexpectedly she spoke up.
Wen Yanqing took another deep breath and said politely, "Comrade Jiang, you speak first."
Jiang Yu tilted her head, looking at him with a smile in her eyes: "Comrade Wen, let's first get to know each other without the intention of playing hooligan."
If the purpose is not to be a hooligan, then isn't the purpose to get married?
With a loud "boom".
All the blood in her body rushed to her face, and Wen Yanqing blushed so much that blood almost dripped out: "Comrade Jiang, what you mean is that you agree to be with me, right?"
Jiang Yu nodded, then shook her head: "We can't really be considered a couple yet. Before we can become a couple, Comrade Wen must pursue me first."
"If Comrade Wen passes my test, we can become a couple and I'll tell you a secret, Comrade Wen, are you willing?"
Her best friend in her previous life told her that men are like dogs, and they often don’t cherish feelings that come too easily.
Also, she didn't know Wen Yanqing well enough, and knew nothing about his family. Giving him a chance to pursue her would also allow her to get to know this person more deeply.
Wen Yanqing nodded heavily: "I do!"
“Puff—”
The clear and firm "I do" reminded Jiang Yu of the promise she made at the wedding, and she couldn't help laughing out loud.
Wen Yanqing's face turned even redder.
He didn't know what she was laughing at, he only knew that she looked beautiful when she laughed.
Her eyes were like crescent moons, full of warmth and joy, and her sweet smile was like an autumn breeze, gently blowing away all the heaviness, making people feel relaxed while also making him unable to take his eyes off her.
The autumn night is long, and the chirping of unknown insects can be faintly heard outside, accompanied by the sound of the wind, making such a night seem even more warm.
A small insect flew over and landed on Wen Yanqing's hair.
