Endless Fall - Chapter 210

   Chapter 210 Unwilling to stand in the dark

  He Qi hardly hesitated: “Okay.” He picked up the lighter: “But she’s rather shy, I have to coax her more.”

   The petting he showed was out of place.

  Su Tian was terrified.

   She tried her best to maintain a smile, and as before, took care of He Qi: “Do you have any plans to get married?”

   “Yes.” He Qi was unwilling to stand in the dark, let alone watch her marry someone else.

   He raised Erlang’s legs: “Brother Quan, how about you come and be me as the best man?”

  Gu Quan was swayed by the feeling of discomfort, especially when he met his gaze, he was even more annoyed.

   He said lightly, “If I’m free.”

   “Well.” He Qi was afraid that Su Tian would make trouble with him, so he changed the subject appropriately: “How is Song Zhen doing recently?”

   “You didn’t get in touch?”

   “No.” He said that he has been busy investing recently and ‘accompanying his girlfriend’: “I heard that he is getting engaged to the Yuan family daughter?”

“not sure yet.”

   “Do they really want to marry?”

   “It should be.” Gu Quan had a chat with him, not as lively as before.

   When the waiter pushed the dining car in, he looked at the silent Tang Manxi: “Sister, why haven’t I seen you before?”

   “I just moved to Lin City.”

   “No wonder.” He Qi observed her secretly, saw that her focus was on Gu Quan, and asked with a smile, “How did you meet?”

  Tang Manxi briefly said, not forgetting to emphasize how good they were during that period.

   She put vegetables in Gu Quan’s bowl: “Brother Quan, how much did you buy me a bag just now?”

   “More than one hundred thousand.”

   “I’ll transfer it to you when I go home?”

  Gu Quan glanced at her: “No.” He really lost his appetite halfway through his meal: “I still have something to deal with, so I’ll go first.”

  Su Tian and Tang Manxi chased out one after the other.

  The former was so panicked that he held his hand, still looking like he was understanding: “Aquan, are you in a bad mood today?”

“No.”

   “Then what happened to you?”

  Gu Quan emphasized that he had something to deal with.

   He pulled out the hand she was holding, his eyes stopped on the watch, and he had no time to think about anything else: “Tian Tian, ​​I can’t see you off.”

   “It’s okay.” Su Tian watched him get in the car, with a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth: “I’ll wait for you to come back.”

  Tang Manxi, who didn’t have time to talk to him, was very angry watching the car go away.

   She rolled her eyes: “Pretend.”

   Su Tian, ​​who was slammed on the shoulder, stared at her back, the wickedness in his eyes was fleeting.

   “Miss Tang.” She smiled instead of anger: “Aquan told me that he will never marry you in this life.”

   “Would you marry you if you don’t marry me?”

   “Have you not figured out one thing? I am in a relationship with him, and entering the marriage hall is inevitable.”

  Tang Manxi, who slammed the taxi door, glanced behind her with a provocative smile: “Then we’ll wait and see.”

   A brief confrontation ended.

   When she found a private detective, Su Tian, ​​who was unaware of the danger, also turned and left.

   The sky where the setting sun is not seen is gray.

   Snowflakes wrapped in the wind rushed into the unit building of Red Maple Forest, trying to follow the residents into the cramped elevator.

  The biting wind was coming, and the tip of Lin Jiao’s nose was blown red. As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he returned to their home in three or two steps.

   She carried the peaches she bought in the supermarket to the kitchen to wash it, waited for the clock to point to ten, and then implemented the second round of the plan.

   “Husband.” The moment the video was switched on, a soft voice penetrated Pei Zhi’s auricle.

  I saw her wearing a dark green suspender, lying on the bed with her chin in both hands: “Are you done?”

   Pei Zhi closed the folder: “Well.” He stared at the striking white patch, his expression unchanged: “Has the snow in Lincheng stopped?”

“not yet.”

   “Then you raise the temperature in the room.”

  Lin Jiao responded with a smile: “I bought a piece of fruit today, guess what?”

“cherries?”

   “Not true.”

   Pei Zhi said the fruits she liked one after another, but found that it was wrong, and said warmly: “Wife, we can reveal the mystery.”

   “Peach.” She raised her voice and picked up the peaches from the bedside table: “It looks delicious, but unfortunately you can’t taste it.”

   came to recruit him again.

   Pei Zhi wrote down the account: “How delicious is it?” He watched her bite down a peach, and was driven to light a cigarette by the dryness.

  Lin Jiao describes the taste as tender and juicy.

   She swallowed the peaches slowly and shook her fair feet: “But for you, it’s definitely not as sweet as last time.”

   “Sweet last time? I forgot.”

   “Then let me help you recall.”

   Pei Zhi, who was dragged into memory by her, had a pair of long and narrow eyes that became deeper and deeper, as if a layer of thick ink had been poured on him.

   He accompanied her to finish eating the big peaches, feeling that she would hold on: “Wife, it will be uncomfortable for you to lie on your stomach like this.”

  Lin Jiao had to turn over.

   “It’s delicious.” She inadvertently moved closer to the camera and pursed her crystal-stained lips: “I smell peach all over me.”

   “Unfortunately I can’t smell it?”

“Yes.”

   Pei Zhi saw through her little tricks.

   He listened to the hiccups and pretended to be uncomfortable, so that the kitten over there could stop.

   Lin Jiao, who mistakenly thought that he was going to take a bath again, lowered his raised lips and gave him a sticky ‘boo’.

   The second plan ended with a ‘success’.

   She put a tick in the memo in her heart, and when the third day fell into the night, she put on a different dress to make a video call with him.

   “Husband, are you outside?” It was dark on his side, only a faint light shone down.

  Pei Zhi put on his headphones: “In the car.” He turned on the lights around him, and the outline was softened by a warm light.

   “Who are you going on a date with?”

“With you.”

  Lin Jiao was caught by his breath.

   She stared at those eyes across the screen, and her voice was more delicate than before: “During a dream with me?”

“no?”

“sure.”

   “Good.” Pei Zhi glanced at the buildings that flashed past the window, and an inexplicable smile flashed in his eyes.

   He was curious about her plan tonight, and drew out her trick with one sentence: “Does my wife miss me?”

   “Think.”

   “How much do you think?”

   “Thinking of not being able to sleep at night.” Lin Jiao turned the camera to the base of her leg and pointed to a piece of skin: “I was bitten by a mosquito just now.”

   really took the bait.

   Pei Zhi pretended not to see the piece of lace she deliberately showed: “The toilet water is in the second cabinet under the TV.”

   “The toilet water doesn’t smell good, so I won’t wipe it.”

   “What then?”

   “It should be fine if you rub it?” Lin Jiao touched the non-existent bite marks ruthlessly.

   She observed Pei Zhi’s reaction, and when she saw his fingertips fall on the collar, she turned the camera: “Husband, if only you were here.”

   “I’ll be back soon.”

   “There are still two days.” She pursed her lips: “You won’t be warm when you’re not in the bed, and no one will put their arms around my waist and put me to sleep.”

   Every word of hers seems to be unintentional, but in fact it evokes his memories, which is bad enough.

   Pei Zhi pressed his cheek: “I will coax you tonight?”
