She watched in amazement as Gu Nanxi held the steering wheel with one hand, quickly opened the DVD with the other hand, took out the disc, and threw the disc out along the car window.

The movement was so complete that Ji Xinyao was immediately stunned.

The car window was closed again, and Gu Nanxi's right hand was also holding the steering wheel again, her expression unchanged, as if the inexplicable coldness that had just appeared in her body at that moment disappeared without a trace.

Such a man who has so much self-control and hides his emotions so carefully...

She looked at him like this for a long time, until she came to a red light at an intersection and the car slowly stopped. He turned to look at her and said, "What do you want to eat?"

"Ah? I haven't thought about it yet..." Ji Xinyao quickly retracted her gaze and looked straight ahead.

"Then think quickly." He naturally acted as if nothing had happened just now.

Ji Xinyao, however, kept looking at the traffic ahead, feeling a little dazed in her mind.

It seems that the CD must have been in his CD folder for a long time, so long that he himself forgot what was there. But why is there only one song "Enlightenment" on the CD? That song is obviously so sad and helpless...

Suddenly, she remembered what Gu Nanxi had said to her outside the Civil Affairs Bureau: If she was unable to love again in this life, then it would be the same for everyone.

What kind of woman could be loved so deeply by Nancy Gu? And what kind of woman could hurt such a man so thoroughly. What was the injured Nancy Gu like?

She couldn't help but turn her head and glance at him secretly. The sky was getting dark, and the lights on the main road in G City were already lit up, reflecting on his handsome profile, casting a faint shadow on her side.

Suddenly, at the angle of her sight, she saw a small Sichuan hotpot on the roadside, and she couldn't help but said: "Why don't you choose this one? Can you eat spicy food?"

As she said that, she raised her hand and pointed outward. Gu Nanxi glanced in the direction she pointed, without saying anything, drove the car to the intersection in front, turned around and drove towards the store she pointed to.

The car stopped in front of the door. Ji Xinyao got out of the car first. Because the parking spaces nearby were full, he walked around and found a parking space before walking slowly towards this side.

"Are you sure you can eat spicy food?" Ji Xinyao asked worriedly as the two walked in.

He casually gave her a lukewarm look, and she immediately stopped asking any more questions. She felt angry, thinking that since you don't need to be polite, I don't need to be polite to you anymore, so she took the lead and walked in quickly.

"Welcome, how many of you are dining here?"

Ji Xinyao said: "Two people." The waiter inside led them to the seat inside. The two walked through the crowded tables and walked inside. Seeing that there was still room, they turned around with a smile.

Said: "It seems that the goods in this store should be good, there are so many people."

Gu Nanxi didn't say anything, and sat down directly. She took the order from the waiter and put it on her side without even looking at it: "Order whatever you like."

Seeing that he didn't seem uncomfortable here, Ji Xinyao sat down with confidence, looked down at the menu, and lightly marked on it. After drawing for a while, she raised her head and looked at him: "Do you like it?"

Should I eat more vegetables or more meat? If it’s meat, should I eat mutton or beef? Should I eat duck intestines?”

"Green vegetables."

"Oh." She lowered her head and looked, and put a check mark behind a large vegetable plate. After looking at the menu carefully, she raised it to hand it to him: "Look, do you have anything to add?"

?I didn’t order too much~!”

Gu Nanxi took it but didn't look at it and handed it directly to the waiter.

"What do you two want to drink?"

"mineral water."

"mineral water."

The two said in unison.

Ji Xinyao immediately raised her eyes to look at him, and Gu Nanxi also looked at her lukewarmly.

"Okay, please wait a moment." The waiter took the menu and turned around to leave. At the same time, another male waiter placed a mandarin duck pot bottom that she ordered on the table. Within a minute, steaming heat spread between the two of them.

spread.

"I was originally worried that you wouldn't be able to adapt to this environment." She raised her hand to take the mineral water brought by the waiter and said while unscrewing the bottle cap.

Gu Nanxi raised her eyebrows slightly: "How do you say that?"

"Don't people like you usually go to magnificent hotels or some particularly high-end places, where all kinds of food are customized, and even the wine must be Moutai specially supplied by the country?"

He smiled, as if the pot was a little warm because it was on the table. He took off his coat and casually put it on the back of the chair behind him. When he turned around, he said, "According to what you say, should I live in

Zhongnanhai?"

"Don't you have a place to live there? By the way, are all the country's leaders really living there in Zhongnanhai?"

"..." He looked at her wordlessly, his eyes full of contempt.

"Isn't that right?"

"All public speculations are spread by the media. As a media person, do you think this kind of speculative news has the value of investigating the authenticity? We are all human beings, including grains, and hotels and restaurants are the same.

." He had no expression.

"Let me just say, I have always felt that these things are too mythical..."

He just smiled, and then the waiter brought over the plates of food they ordered. After a while, the red and white mandarin duck pots were filled with food.

Ji Xinyao raised her chopsticks and stirred the pot gently: "I'm afraid you don't like spicy food, so I asked for the mandarin duck pot. I'll give you this."

"How do you know I don't like spicy food?" He raised his eyebrows.

"You can guess."

He chuckled, as if she had really guessed it right. Now that the two of them were eating, he really only ate the contents of the clear soup pot on that side.

Forty minutes later, the two of them walked out. Ji Xinyao looked up at the night sky where it was rare to see the stars and the moon, and took a deep breath: "I'm so full, I have to walk back..."

Gu Nanxi walked by her and said: "This street is three kilometers away from Nippori, you can walk on your own."

Ga?

Ji Xinyao suddenly turned her head to look at his back as he walked towards the parking space over there, and hurriedly followed him. She looked at his figure speechlessly and murmured in a low voice: "I'm just talking."

He didn't speak. After she jumped into the car first again, he just stood outside the car and looked at her. His expression was unremarkable, but he seemed to be thoughtful, and then he got in the car.

After eating and drinking, the two of them didn't chat much along the way. They were all talking about insignificant topics. By the time they returned to Nippori, the time had already reached 7:30.

Pushing open the door, Ji Xinyao habitually took off her shoes, changed them, and put her bag on the locker next to the door. Suddenly, her body stiffened, and she noticed the two people in the room.

He Jiezhen is watching TV. She is not surprised that she will live here for at least a month. What surprises her most is that Wen Qing is still here...

"You're back? Didn't you get off work very early? Are you coming back so late?" He Jiezhen stood up and walked over, looking happily at the two people who walked in together.

From the corner of Ji Xinyao's eyes, she caught a glimpse of the disbelief and sadness in Wen Qing's eyes when she discovered that they were back together, so she smiled calmly and said softly: "We are just..."

"Mom, you usually don't have dinner, so I went out with Xin Yao to eat something casually." Gu Nanxi's sudden voice interrupted her, her tone was like that of a husband who had a very harmonious relationship with his wife, and naturally couldn't do it anymore.

Naturally, close the door behind her.

"No wonder." He Jiezhen smiled and nodded. 13acv.

"Nancy!" Wen Qing stood up and came over with a smile, as if she was the wife waiting for her husband to come home. She raised her hand to take the coat that he took off casually after entering the door.

Gu Nanxi paused, holding the coat in her hand, glanced at the smiling Wen Qing, handed the coat to Ji Xinyao beside her, and looked at Wen Qing with a faint smile: "Why don't you go back so late?

?Aren’t you afraid that the old man will be worried?”

Although Wen Qing failed to receive the coat, her expression remained unchanged. She smiled at his words and said: "Nancy, I want to live here with my godmother, but my godmother said it's not appropriate, so I am here today."

Find someone to tidy up the house next to me, and I will live in Nippori from today on, just in time to accompany my godmother! How about it? Surprise?"

Ji Xinyao didn't pay attention to the conversation between the two of them, but was stunned for a moment when Gu Nanxi suddenly handed the coat to her. Seeing his too natural action, she didn't say anything, raised her hand to take the coat, and turned around

Hang on a hanger.

"Fortunately, I also asked the decoration company to decorate the house at that time. Now I have bought some furniture and daily necessities, so I can live in it immediately!" Wen Qing continued.

Gu Nanxi's eyes did not change: "You want to live in Nippori?"

She was so surprised that she held it in her hand. Wen Qing smiled happily and nodded. Next to him, He Jiezhen also smiled and said: "Xiaoqing said that she hasn't let me hold her to sleep for many years. When she was a child, she was afraid of thunder and cried for help.

You stay with her, but you don't want to sleep with her, so I always hold her, so she has become accustomed to clinging to me for so many years. I haven't returned to China for several years, and this child is very clingy and insists on staying with me.

"

Saying that, He Jiezhen turned around and glanced at Ji Xinyao specifically: "Xinyao, you don't mind, do you?"

What could Ji Xinyao say? Besides, she could see some apology and helplessness in He Jiezhen's eyes, and knew that she also loved her goddaughter, so she curled her lips: "Why would I mind? You guys are... just

family……"

At this time, Wen Qing suddenly looked at her with a smile: "Sister Xinyao, I may disturb you more in the future."

"Haha, what are you talking about disturbing?" Ji Xinyao felt that her acting skills were really amazing. Even if she had no relationship with Gu Nancy, how could she not see Wen Qing's obvious purpose?

She couldn't tell whether she should be disgusted or should recognize her position, and obediently shrink into the bedroom to make room for them. Just as she was thinking this, her steps started to move with consciousness, and she walked towards the auxiliary bedroom.

"Wait." Gu Nanxi suddenly called her out.

Ji Xinyao turned around, he walked towards her, suddenly raised his hand and put it on her forehead.

"Didn't you say you weren't feeling well when you were on the road? You really have a fever. Go take medicine." He muttered to himself, then raised his arms and put his arms around her waist and pushed her stiff body towards the master bedroom.

She looked at his still so natural expression in astonishment, with even more confusion in her eyes. It wasn't until he took her into the room that he didn't close the door, but just pushed her to a position where people outside couldn't see her, and then put her down.

He flipped through the drawer with his hands, but it was obvious that he was not looking for medicine, but was just doing it for the benefit of outsiders.

"What are you doing?" she asked in a low voice, puzzled.

He just turned his head and looked at her flatly, without saying anything.
