surprise
"What else can we do!" Dong Qun couldn't help but said excitedly, "If you like her, just chase her!"
This time, Wang Huan didn't stop Dong Qun from speaking.
"...But he seems angry." Dong You said dejectedly.
Dong Qun waved his hand and said, "What's the big deal? When he's angry, you just sit here and say 'he's angry'. Can't you be more proactive and try to comfort him when he's angry? Xiao An has a good temper. You should express your thoughts sincerely and test how Xiao An feels about you. If he doesn't reject you, then try your best to pursue him. If you can't catch up with him, then divorce him and just be friends."
"Your father is right. It's useless to just talk here. You need to take action to save the relationship." Wang Huan said, "Since Xiao An is willing to marry you, he definitely doesn't reject you and must have a good impression of you."
What Dad and Mom said makes sense.
But she scratched the hair on the back of her head and said, "But... you are sick now, and the company..."
The warmth didn't last long. Dong Qun was still used to the mocking mode. He sneered and said disdainfully, "Do you think the company won't change without you? Go ahead and do it with confidence. Do you think your mother is a vegetarian? It's just that she usually doesn't want to do it."
Dongyou rarely refused to retort, nodded, opened his phone and wanted to book the earliest flight to go see Chen Qian'an, but he stopped when he opened the phone keyboard.
"What's wrong?" Wang Huan asked.
Dong You said awkwardly: "...I don't know where he is going."
Dong Qun: “…”
Wang Huan: “…”
Fortunately, she had left her WeChat ID with Ji Yu when they had dinner together. She sent a message to Ji Yu asking where Chen Qi'an was in Country M.
Ji Yu readily gave Dong You his full address and asked, "What's the matter? Is there something urgent you need to talk to him about? Do you want me to call him for you?"
Dongyou quickly typed out a lie: [No, no, I planned to give him a surprise.]
Ji Yu: [Oh~~~[raises eyebrow][raises eyebrow] Very sweet. ]
Dong You: [Hahahaha, please don’t tell him.]
Ji Yu: [I understand. [ok]]
Under the watchful eyes of the two old men, Dongyou quickly booked the plane ticket.
Dong Qun ate the apple Wang Huan had peeled for him and said, "Then hurry back and pack your bags. Don't disturb my wife and I.
Dong You was feeling very anxious at the moment and had no intention of joking with Dong Qun. After confirming that Dong Qun really didn't need him, he said okay in a hurry and turned around to leave without any reluctance.
"Look at this," Dong Qun complained to Wang Huan in dissatisfaction. "Look at how impatient she is."
Wang Huan picked up the apple Dong Qun insisted on peeling for her and said helplessly, "Why are you complaining? You sound like you wouldn't be like her if it were you."
Dong Qun was unable to refute and snorted through his nose, refusing to show weakness.
Dongyou packed her luggage as quickly as possible and boarded the plane with a nervous heart. During this time, she did not reply to Chen Qian'an's message.
When Dongyou boarded the plane, Chen Qian'an had already taken a shower in the hotel where they were resting during the layover. He turned on his phone and found that Dongyou was still there and had not replied to his message.
He sighed: So busy?
Ji Yu was in the same hotel with him. Seeing him sighing, he invited him to play games with him. He had just been on a plane for several hours and was not in a good mood. Thinking about the nine-hour flight he had to catch tomorrow morning, they silently lit a candle for their butts.
Unlike Chen Qian'an and his friends, Dong You bought a direct flight ticket, while Chen Qian'an and his friends had to transfer, so Dong You arrived almost five hours earlier than them.
The Dong family's businesses are spread all over the world, and they have some connections in Country M. She contacted her acquaintances here and asked them to find her a house close to Chen Qian'an's laboratory. Money is not a problem.
The acquaintance was quite powerful in Country M, and soon a house became available. He quickly looked at the house and finalized the contract, and he also helped Dongyou exchange some Country M currency.
Dongyou lay in the rented house, set the alarm clock, and had a comfortable sleep.
I didn't sleep for too long, and the alarm clock rang half an hour later.
This is what Dongyou asked Ji Yu before boarding the plane. He knew that they had connecting tickets and knew the time they would land in Country M.
Dong You spent ten minutes getting ready and picking up her bag to go out. Suddenly she remembered that she was going to prepare a "surprise" for Chen Qi'an. After thinking about it, she decided not to take anything.
A comfortable rental house can be considered a gift, right?
I wonder if her arrival is a surprise to Chen Qi'an?
Chen Qi'an felt very strange along the way, because Ji Yu would always smile at him foolishly with a very... to put it bluntly... a little obscene expression.
This caused Chen Qi'an to get goose bumps all over his body, and he felt a chill in his heart. He couldn't help but ask, "Are you really okay?"
He almost suspected that Ji Yu had gone insane from sitting on the plane for too long.
Ji Yu smiled with narrowed eyes and waved his hands: "It's okay, it's okay."
Chen Qi'an turned his head to the other side and moved quietly, a little further away from Ji Yu.
When he arrived at the airport, Chen Qian'an was stunned when he saw the familiar face. He immediately forgot about Ji Yu's abnormal behavior along the way, and did not notice Ji Yu winking at him.
He pulled his suitcase and walked quickly to Dongyou. He was so surprised that he was speechless and asked, "Why are you here?"
Unfortunately, their brain waves weren't on the same page, and Dong You's words sounded like a question. Her confident expression suddenly faded, and she stuttered a little: "I..." She glanced at Ji Yu beside her and said, "We'll talk about it later, okay?"
Chen Qian'an showed a puzzled expression and thought to himself: Whisper?
He nodded.
Dong You took the suitcase from Chen Qi'an and said, "Let's go. The taxi I called is waiting outside."
Chen Qi'an didn't let go and said, "I can do it myself."
In front of so many people, even his classmates, he asked Dongyou to help him with his luggage... Just thinking about this behavior made him blush.
Dong You withdrew his hand awkwardly, thinking that Chen Qian'an was still angry.
Ji Yu, who was standing by, felt that the atmosphere between the two was odd, which was different from the last time they had dinner together, mainly because of the winter outing. Her reaction always had an indescribable strangeness.
They took a taxi together, but the taxi stopped at a residential complex next to the research building.
Ji Yu looked at the navigation on his phone and said, "Did we go the wrong way?"
Dong You opened the car door and said, "That's right. I'll take Xiao An's luggage to the rental house first. Didn't you say there was a dinner party? Go ahead. The driver knows the way to the research building."
Ji Yu: “Ah?”
Chen Qi'an remained calm and said, "We have dormitories."
Dong You: "I know, but the dormitory is definitely not as comfortable as the rental house I found myself."
In fact, she also wanted to say: And I am here to accompany you.
But considering that Chen Qi'an might still be angry, I wonder if he would give me face after hearing this... Although knowing Chen Qi'an, he wouldn't be so uncultured. But who knows what people might do when they get angry to a certain extent?
To be on the safe side, I didn’t add that sentence when traveling in winter.
Chen Qi'an tacitly agreed to the winter outing. After the car started again, Ji Yu teased, "You're pretty good at playing it cool. You must be really happy inside, right?"
Chen Qi'an pursed his lips and said nothing, but his face was actually red.
After a few seconds of silence, Chen Qi'an felt it would be impolite to remain silent, so he muttered, like a kitten scratching someone: "Don't talk nonsense."
The dinner didn't last long, mainly to get to know the people in the project. The professor also took into consideration that the students in China had been traveling all day and didn't have any extra social activities after the meal, so he let them go directly.
Ji Yu went straight back to the dormitory.
Chen Qian'an walked downstairs to the research building and found the taxi he had taken was still there.
According to the driver, he had already spent a lot of money to buy this car for the whole day of winter tour, so after the dinner, he was the one who took Chen Qian'an back to the community.
Chen Qianan walked to the driver's window and knocked twice.
The driver raised his head, opened the door, tapped on his phone, and sent a message to Dongyou.
Chen Qian'an got off the car and Dong You was waiting for him at the gate of the community, holding a coat from his suitcase in his hand.
Seeing him get off the car, Dong You immediately came up to him, handed him his coat and said, "It's a bit cold now, put it on and don't catch a cold."
After that, they didn't say a word until they reached the rental house.
Chen Qi'an felt strange and wanted to speak to break the silence, but he really didn't know what to say, so he simply closed his mouth.
"clatter."
Chen Qi'an closed the door and heard Dong You say, "I'm sorry."
"?" Chen Qi'an looked at Dong You in confusion, and asked, "Who are you talking to?"
Unexpectedly, he reacted like this. Everything Dongyou wanted to say got stuck in his throat. After a while, he finally said dryly, "You."
Chen Qi'an felt strange: "Why are you saying sorry to me?"
"You heard everything I said to my mother that day... right?" Dong You said nervously.
Chen Qi'an's excitement instantly cooled, and he nodded, "I heard a few words."
Xiaoyou brought this up…was it because he wanted to remind himself that this marriage was devoid of love?
She said sorry first, so what would be the next sentence?
divorce?
These two words popped into Chen Qi'an's mind, giving him a start. Just as Dong You was about to say the next sentence, he quickly interrupted her, "It's okay! I don't care. I know everything. It's okay! No need to apologize!"
Dong You looked at him in astonishment, all words blocked.
Xiao An doesn't mind?
Why?
In the winter tour's expectation, even if Chen Qi'an had a good temper, he would at least be a little angry after learning the truth.
But in reality there is nothing.
Don’t mind…actually I don’t care.
Dongyou felt a little blocked in his heart.
Perhaps in Chen Qi'an's heart, she has always been just a sister. In Chen Qi'an's eyes, the reason for their marriage is not important. It is just because Dong You is the sister he has relied on since childhood, so he did not refuse her marriage proposal.
Perhaps marriage does not even exist in Chen Qian'an's life plan.
