jiang che looked away from her and placed a chess piece down. ” “Miss Shi, it’s your turn.”
His expression was so natural that it was as if he had just said those words casually. However, his natural change of topic made Shi Yan’s irregular heartbeat gradually calm down.
She turned her face slightly and smiled.
the two of them continued to play a few more rounds. they only left the jade restaurant when the sun was not so hot around three o ‘clock.
“Miss Shi, are you in a hurry to go back?” Jiang che asked in the car.
Shi Yan would definitely shake her head.
What was she in a hurry for? she still had to find a way to see him when she got back. Now that he was right beside her, she couldn’t wait to stay outside for a while longer.
“then let’s find a place to walk? i know a park with a good environment nearby.”
shi yan also knew that there was a good park nearby. jiang rui had brought her to haicheng for half a month and they had been to all the places with good scenery, including this park that jiang che had mentioned.
“Sure,” shallow smile replied.
in less than ten minutes, the two arrived at the park.
After parking the car in the parking lot, the two of them walked to the gate of the park.
the park did not require a ticket. it was probably because school was about to start and the weather was good that there were many people in the park, mostly children and young people.
There were many couples among these young people.
they were holding hands and playing on the road.
there were many people who were about the same age as shi yan, but shi yan was much quieter than them.
He was quiet and indifferent.
when jiang che’s gaze occasionally fell on shi yan’s face, he would think, ” no wonder he took a fancy to her at first sight. even in the vast sea of people, she was still the most special one. ”
walking side by side, the two of them were still about a person’s distance apart, but it did not make people feel out of place. On the contrary, anyone who noticed them would be amazed by the good atmosphere between them.
she felt that such a down-to-earth thing in the park didn’t suit their temperament, but she felt that it was very suitable for the two of them to go together.
she couldn’t say what was appropriate, but she thought that if they were alone instead of two people, they would definitely be out of place in the bustling environment.
“Is this Mr. Jiang’s first time here?”
“when i was a child, i came to haicheng to visit aunt shen. the elders in my family brought me here once.”
Shi Yan looked at Jiang Che’s gentlemanly appearance and really couldn’t imagine what he had been like when he had visited the park at the age of eight. He must have been different from the children who had been jumping around in front of him.
She was really curious about what he looked like when he was young.
Sensing her gaze, Jiang che asked, ” “what’s wrong?”
“it’s nothing.” shi yan smiled and shook her head.
jiang che looked at her smiling face. he didn’t believe that it was really nothing, but since she didn’t say anything, he didn’t ask.
“where’s miss shi? is this your first time here?”
“no, rui ‘er brought me here once before.”
Shi Yan suddenly thought of something and said with a smile, ” “perhaps i was here when i was young, but i was too young to remember. i’ve been to haicheng twice when i was young. once when i was eight, and the other time when i was two.”
I still remember what happened when I was eight years old. At that time, I really didn’t come here. But I’m not sure if I came here when I was two years old.
shi yan looked at jiang che and asked with a smile,”mr. jiang, if i came to this park when i was two years old, do you think it’s possible that we’ve met here at that time?”
he was six years older than her, and she was two years old when he was eight.
shi yan had only asked casually, but after asking, she felt that it might really be possible.
“i won’t,” jiang che said firmly.
looking at her slightly stunned expression, as if she was saying that he was unromantic, jiang che curled his lips slightly. ” ” i have a good memory. if i had met miss shi back then, i would definitely remember her. ”
Shi Yan felt that he was saying this to make her happy, but she had to admit that she was really happy to hear him say this.
The next second, she heard him say,”it doesn’t matter if you’ve seen it when you were young or not, you’ve seen it when you’ve grown up.” &Nbsp;
Without waiting for Shi Yan’s reaction, he looked away from her and walked forward.
When she came to her senses, Shi Yan couldn’t help but smile.
That’s right, regardless of whether they had seen each other when they were young, they had seen each other when they grew up. when they met, they had an intersection, and this intersection might be a lifetime.
people should look back, not forward.
She kept up with his pace.
The two of them walked side by side for a while. Suddenly, Jiang che saw many girls in front of them holding ice cream in their hands. He glanced at the quiet girl beside him.
she really didn’t seem to take the initiative to ask for anything, and there seemed to be very few things that could make her interested. many people said that he had no desires, as if he had seen through the world. in this regard, he felt that the girl was even more so than him.
there was a kind of calmness on her body that had been washed away. no matter who or what she was facing, she was calm and unruffled.
Oh, that didn’t seem to be entirely true. She had lost her composure in front of him a few times.
as he thought of this, a smile flashed across jiang zhi’s eyes.
” ms. shi, it’s hot outside. i think there’s an ice cream shop up ahead. shall i buy you one? ” she said.
“ah?” shi yan was a little confused.
it was really weird for him to line up at a stall to buy ice cream with his temperament. besides, she didn’t look like someone who would eat ice cream on the street!
she had never done such a thing before.
Besides, she rarely ate ice cream.
he was probably really a little dazed, for he spoke without thinking, which was rare. Mr. Jiang, do you want to eat ice cream? ”
To be honest, she couldn’t imagine a pure and noble person like Jiang che eating ice cream while walking.
jiang che,”yingluo.”
She was a gentle and calm person, but she had a rich imagination.
“I just want to buy one for miss Shi.”
He had already said that he wanted to buy it for her, so how could she reject him?
He could.
But she didn’t want to.
“teacher jiang, let’s take a look at the front,” she said with a smile.
The ice cream stall was on the side of the road. Regardless of whether the stall was clean or not, Shi Yan liked the feeling of Jiang che taking her to buy ice cream.
besides, so many people could eat it, so there was nothing she couldn’t eat.
she didn’t care much about these things. she had planted crops before. she had grown the vegetables in the small farmyard for many years. most of the time, she wasn’t very particular about people.
There were many people in line for ice cream, and it took them almost ten minutes to get it.
they were all young girls lining up to buy ice cream. it was inevitable to hear them exclaiming softly after seeing her and jiang che, ” so handsome, so well-matched ” and so on.
Whether he was handsome or beautiful was secondary, the most important thing was to be well-matched.
Shi Yan felt that she seemed to be slowly becoming tacky.
“what flavor do you like, miss shi?”
A pleasant voice interrupted her thoughts.”i don’t eat these often, so i’m not sure what flavor is good. i’ll just pick the one that’s selling the best.”
“miss, it’s you?”
the few people in front of her took their ice cream and left. shi yan saw the ice cream shop owner.
it was a familiar face.
it was that auntie called xuan liuying.
Xuan Liuying seemed to be happy to see her.
Shi Yan resumed her elegant smile and nodded slightly.”Hello,” he said.
Xuan Liuying looked at her and then at Jiang che beside her. She couldn’t help but exclaim in her heart, what a perfect couple!
I’ve always wanted to return you the money that miss gave me to buy medicine, but I don’t have your contact information, and I don’t know where to find you.
“it didn’t cost much, auntie doesn’t need to mind.”
” it might be a small thing to you, but to auntie yu, it’s a huge favor. just wait, auntie will give you the money for the medicine now. also, thank you for specially buying the medicine for auntie the other day. ”
“auntie has already thanked me before, so there’s no need to thank me again. as for the medicine money, you don’t have to return it. if auntie really doesn’t mind, just give me an ice cream.”
however, shi yan didn’t expect that the other party would take so long to remember the purchase of medicine.
from the looks of it, he was insistent on paying her back for her medicine. it was obvious that he didn’t like to owe others. in that case, she would just go along with his wishes and give him an ice cream as a token of appreciation.
“this bi an ...”
xuan liuying met shi yan’s smiling eyes, as if knowing that shi yan would not want money or even ice cream if she continued, she said,”alright, auntie will get you something with a good taste.”
“Your friend wants one too?”
“no, thank you.” jiang che had said this.
his voice was warm and pleasant.
Shi Yan unconsciously looked up at Jiang che, only to see his gaze on Xuan Liuying’s face.
even though it was only retracted after a few seconds, it was already very unusual.
Shi Yan took the ice cream with suspicion and left with Xuan Liuying.
xuan liuying looked at her back and suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to ask for her name. she really felt that her appearance was too similar to su yunzhi, and felt that she might have some relationship with su yunzhi.
But by the time she remembered, he had already gone far away.
On the road, Shi Yan was indeed not used to eating like this. Perhaps Jiang che could tell, so he found a long bench under the shade of a tree with few people and sat down.
“Ms. Shi, do you know the ice cream seller from earlier?” he suddenly asked.
She was a gentle and quiet person, and she ate quietly.
not really. I just bought her some medicine by chance. I didn’t expect her to remember it until now.
“Mr. Jiang, do you know that Auntie?”
Xuan was not a common surname.
the main thing was that when he saw xuan liuying just now, jiang che was a little abnormal.
I just feel that she looks a little familiar. Miss Shi, do you know her name? ”
Since he had specifically asked for her name, it seemed that she was not just familiar.
“Xuan Liuying, I’ve seen her work pass before.”
“Do you know him, Mr. Jiang?”
“i don’t, but someone does.”
Seeing that Shi Yan was looking at him in confusion, Jiang che said, ” “it has nothing to do with us, so we don’t need to care.”
our ran ran
shi yan liked this statement.
the two of them strolled around the park for a long time and only left when it was time for dinner.
they found a restaurant to have dinner before they went back.
By the time they returned to the Jiang family’s old house in Haicheng, the sky had already darkened.
jiang che directly sent shi yan to the entrance of the small courtyard she lived in.
the car stopped and the two of them got out.
Shi Yan thought it was just a simple farewell, but Jiang che walked over to open the trunk and took out something.
under the street lamp, shi yan saw that it was a pot of flowers.
It was a pot of orchids.
he could tell that she had been raised with care.
It was usually difficult to distinguish the species without blooming, but Shi Yan had good eyesight and could tell at a glance that it was a pure-crowned Lotus cauldron, an extremely precious species of orchid. It was said that it had been auctioned for a high price of ten million.
Under the faint street light, the handsome and gentle man walked towards her with the pot of orchids in his hands. Shi Yan didn’t know why, but her heart beat faster.
when he got closer, he stopped about two steps away from her. ” ” miss shi, this is the uncrowned lotus cauldron that i’ve been cultivating for almost three years. it takes three years for it to mature and it should bloom soon. i’m giving it to you now. ”
shi yan didn’t take it immediately. she suppressed her irregular heartbeat and glanced at the uncrowned lotus cauldron in his hand. then she looked up at him and asked with a smile,”mr. jiang, why did you give me orchids?”
“Or you can ask me why I’m giving you flowers, miss Shi.”
shi yan was slightly stunned, but then followed his words.”why did you give me flowers, mr. jiang?”
“last night at the winery, i heard from ms. shi that you don’t have a boyfriend?”
shi yan’s heart skipped a beat. a few seconds later, she nodded.”Yes, I don’t have a boyfriend.”
under the dim light, she met his affectionate and loving gaze and heard him say, ” since Ms. Shi doesn’t have a boyfriend, can you give me a chance to pursue you? ”
shi yan’s hand subconsciously clenched the belt of her slanted bag.
