When they arrived at the place, Jiang Yingnian and Guan Jiyu got off the carriage one after another, and Han Xu was already waiting at the gate of the new house.
Guan Jiyu stood at the door, staring at the two houses standing side by side in front of her. She did not move, and with an indifferent attitude, she silently watched what she had dreamed of.
Now that it was so close in front of her eyes, Guan Jiyu stretched out her hand, but suddenly felt that she couldn't catch it.
"Go in and have a look." Jiang Yingnian's words floated from her head to her ears. He seemed to have forgotten his unhappiness just now. He happily walked behind her and pushed her gently, "Come on, Ayu, let's go in."
look."
It’s not like Guan Jiyu has never seen the house here before. Every step she takes into the house is actually not a surprise. But she understands Jiang Yingnian’s intentions. After the two of them have seen it here, she herself has nothing to do with it.
I have been thinking about this for a long time, but I didn't expect that he could still remember it in his heart.
"How's it going?" When he walked to the small garden in the backyard, a few dead leaves fell on the swing there. Jiang Yingnian walked over and swept the dead leaves away, sat on it, and said, "Actually, I quite like it here.
, It’s just that it hasn’t been decorated much yet. If it is packed out and decorated properly, it will definitely be more beautiful.”
The two of them used to be in this place. Jiang Yingnian was sitting on the swing and said proudly: "The third young master is here, can you still pay for it? What a stupid goose!"
At that time, he also said: "If you like, I will give you this room and the one next door to me."
The words he said in the past seemed to be ringing in his ears, but Guan Jiyu still asked seriously: "How much money did you pay in total to purchase these two houses?"
"What? Why are you asking this?" Jiang Yingnian joked while swinging on the swing: "Don't tell me you want to give me money?"
Guan Jiyu said: "This is not a small amount of money. No matter how rich you are, it is still yours. How can I ask you to pay for it? I can buy this house now, that's all. You have to let me pay for it."
That one?"
Jiang Yingnian took out his ears and said: "Women are really troublesome. Why do you have to nag so much about such a trivial matter?" He sat on the swing and swayed a few more times, stopped with his feet, and said: "
Oh, by the way! I almost forgot, I only got the title deed, but not the key to this house. Now this is our territory, even if we are not here, we have to lock it up."
Han Xu came over and said, "Sir, I'll get it."
Jiang Yingnian raised his hand to stop Han Xu and said, "No, let's go there together."
The landowner of this place lived nearby, and the three of them arrived in a short walk without riding a horse or driving a carriage.
The landowner was also a young man. When he saw Jiang Yingnian coming with a woman this time, he stood up and said, half jokingly, half hello: "Here you come? This time you brought your sister-in-law with you."
Jiang Yingnian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "What did you say?"
Turning her head to look at Guan Jiyu, she found that her cheeks were slightly pink.
Guan Jiyu said seriously: "This time we came here to get the house keys. Last time the two of them came, they only got the title deed."
The landlord nodded and said, "Last time I was just talking, so I forgot about it." As he spoke, he opened a small cabinet next to him, took out a key from it, and searched inside. Finally,
He took out two keys and said, "These are the original keys to your two rooms. If you want to change the locks, you can change the locks. Anyway, this house is already yours."
The landlord took the key and wanted to hand it to Jiang Yingnian as usual, but seeing that Guan Jiyu was there, he hesitated and handed it to Guan Jiyu: "The male lead is outside, the female lead is inside, since you two are here, I will go directly
Give it to the mistress."
Guan Jiyu took the key, thought for a while, and said: "You misunderstood, we are not..."
"No?" The landlord scratched his head and asked doubtfully, "Aren't they a couple?"
Jiang Yingnian just smiled, neither admitting nor refuting, seeming to enjoy this "misunderstanding".
Guan Jiyu nodded and said seriously: "We are not husband and wife, so there is no such thing as a male master and a female master like you said."
She took out one of the keys, handed it to Jiang Yingnian beside her, and said, "Your key
You should keep the key yourself."
Jiang Yingnian let out an "ouch" and said, "Don't you understand me? I throw my things wherever I want and forget about them. Can you trust me to keep them? I can guarantee that if you
Give it to me, I must have lost it not long after we walked out of this door."
"That's right!" the landowner agreed, "My wife has gone back to her parents' house these days because of some matters at home, so I am guarding a pile of broken keys here. If it were normal times, how could I have done such delicate work."
Jiang Yingnian looked at Guan Jiyu innocently and said, "Just be a helper and keep it for me first. It won't be too late for me to get it from you when I need it."
The landowner echoed: "Just help him hold it, otherwise it will be troublesome if he loses it." He smiled softly and said, "Even if we are not husband and wife now, there is no guarantee that we will not be husband and wife in the future! I see you guys
The two of them look quite like a couple!"
The words "husband and wife look like" immediately hit Jiang Yingnian's heart. The corners of his mouth rose even more, and he could hardly hold back his smile. He said, "Okay, brother, don't make such jokes.
Yu is so thin-skinned, how can he stand such a joke?"
Guan Jiyu stroked his cheek, clutched the key and walked out quickly.
Jiang Yingnian winked at the landlord, and the landlord smiled evilly in response. Jiang Yingnian swaggered after Guan Jiyu with his hands behind his back.
"Don't walk so fast, wait for me."
On the way back, Guan Jiyu seemed tired from walking. He held his waist and stopped to take a few breaths before saying, "This little landowner only needs a key. He talks a lot."
"Being harmonious brings wealth, and people like him are more likely to attract wealth." Jiang Yingnian said, "Besides, I don't think anything he said was wrong."
"You still say that?!" Guan Jiyu said unnaturally: "He was talking about a couple and a couple. He was obviously making fun of us. Not only did you not refute, but you were still laughing secretly?"
Jiang Yingnian said innocently again: "People can say whatever they like. I have no control over it, so why should I refute it?"
Guan Jiyu was stunned and speechless, so he continued walking forward in silence.
Jiang Yingnian stepped forward and caught up easily, saying: "Ayu, this is just the key to my house. Let alone this, I am willing to hand over everything I own to you.
"
After hearing this, Guan Jiyu just wanted to run away. She walked faster. Jiang Yingnian saw that she wanted to avoid again, so he reached out and grabbed her arm and said, "Why are you running?"
Guan Jiyu still wanted to break free, so he restrained her shoulders with both hands, forcing her to turn around and look directly at him.
Jiang Yingnian said anxiously: "Ayu, I don't want to wait any longer."
Guan Jiyu was puzzled and said: "What are you waiting for?"
Jiang Yingnian hesitated for a moment, glanced around, and found Han Xu standing not far away consciously, with an attitude of being indifferent to what was going on around him. Jiang Yingnian then said to Guan Jiyu: "You know
What did I want to say!"
"What did you say?" Guan Jiyu lowered his head and said, "I'm not a roundworm in your belly, how do I know what you want to say?"
"Ayu! I will only ask you one question now. You answer me first!" He said carefully, even breathing nervously, "Are you and Xiang Lincheng still... that relationship? Do you still...
…”
"No, no." Guan Jiyu said decisively without thinking, "I have nothing to do with him anymore. I was too young to understand what happened in the past, so I had many silly ideas. But it's all over.
It’s past, and it will never happen again.”
Jiang Yingnian breathed a sigh of relief and said excitedly: "That's good, that's good."...
He plucked up the courage and asked, "Well, what do you think of me as a person?"
This question made Guan Jiyu raise her head. Her pupils dilated slightly, her eyelashes blinked slightly, and her eyes were clear and bright. This was the first time she looked at his face so seriously.
Jiang Yingnian's face felt a little hot, his eyes met hers, and he whispered: "Ayu, I really like you, I have liked you before."
Guan Jiyu did not speak. He
Then he continued: "Maybe you never knew that I liked you a long time ago, but I didn't know it at that time. Thinking about it now, I probably fell in love with you not long after I met you."
Guan Jiyu felt depressed for a moment and said softly: "But at that time, you were always bullying me, weren't you?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Jiang Yingnian's face, and then he said angrily: "I was ignorant before, so that's why I acted like that! I admit that I was very naive at that time, so I did a lot of things that made you upset." He quickly explained: "
But haven't I changed now? People will grow up. Look at me now, have I never bullied you again?"
"It's less than before." Guan Jiyu thought for a moment and answered frankly.
Jiang Yingnian found Han Xu standing not far away glanced at him, and became even more at a loss. He hurriedly said: "That's not the problem. The meaning of what I said today is to show you that you are interested in me."
He is a very important person to me. I, Jiang Yingnian, have never liked anyone in my life, only you, Ayu, and I can protect you with my life."
He couldn't help but raise his voice a little higher, and continued: "I just want to be with you. I want to be in the same place with you. I don't think my idea is weird. If you like someone, don't you just want to be with her?"
Stay together?"
Guan Jiyu held the key tightly in her hand. Even though the key hurt her hand, she still refused to let go.
Jiang Yingnian finally said what was deep in his heart: "I used to be a person who only considered myself in everything I did. It was you who taught me how to consider others. I learned many things from you, such as loyalty and courage.
Later, when we joined Xiang Junying together, I realized that these two things can come in handy no matter where we go."
Guan Jiyu's tears suddenly welled up in her eyes. She didn't dare to move, lowered her eyes and didn't dare to blink.
Jiang Yingnian spoke in an unprecedented tone. Even if she didn't look at his expression, Guan Jiyu could hear his sincerity from his voice.
He said: "It is not wrong to live alone for oneself. But since we have sworn to guard the Xuli country, we should uphold our promise and never forget our original intention to be loyal and righteous. Ayu, I believe
My eldest brother had the same thought when he founded Qingzi Camp."
Guan Jiyu already knew what he meant.
Sure enough, the question was raised again, and Jiang Yingnian said: "I have never thought of forcing you to do anything. I respect any decision you make. I just want to make sure again, which one do you choose between these two choices?"
