The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

Jiang Xuxu looked at the newly decorated yard in front of him, stunned for just a second, then met Jiaotu's gaze and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Without asking any more questions, he walked up and sat down at the side of the table.

Although she didn't think that such a dinner would bring back much of Chu Beihe's affection for her given his current state, it was Jiaotu's intention and she would naturally not let him down.

Seeing Jiang Xuxu sitting down without any hesitation, Jiaotu would have thought that she had known his arrangements for a long time if she had not been stunned for a moment before.

However, seeing her reaction, Jiaotu knew that he must have done a great job.

Seeing the heroine sitting down with satisfaction, Jiaotu immediately looked at Chu Beihe with anticipation.

Chu Beihe:......

He probably knew why Jiaotu did this.

As far as I can remember, the housekeeper in the Chu family also liked to do this.

But Chu Beihe felt that such behavior was meaningless.

He could accept her being by his side, he could accept her invitation to live next door to her, but anything more was unnecessary to him.

He would never turn back into the Chu Beihe she knew, so why give her any extra hope.

"You eat, I'll go back to my room."

As he turned around and was about to leave, Jiaotu immediately became anxious when he heard this and was about to speak to stop him, but he heard Jiang Xuxu speak first in the yard.

"It's okay, I can eat by myself."

There wasn't much emotion in her voice. She must have felt disappointed to be refused dinner, but that disappointment was not directed at Chu Beihe in front of her.

As for being sad, that’s not the case.

Although not to the extent, she still added,

"Chu Beihe and I didn't have many opportunities to dine together like this before."

Chu Beihe glanced at Jiang Xuxu in the yard with deep black eyes, but after a while he turned around and left.

Jiaotu became even more anxious.

This brother is too cold now!

He had worked so hard to set it up, but this guy refused to cooperate at all!

Xuxu was actually left here alone!

Jiaotu was a little angry and wanted to find Chu Beihe to argue, but he saw Jiang Xuxu suddenly winked at him.

She looked at him, then looked around the room, and then gave him a reassuring look.

Before Jiaotu could react, he heard the footsteps that had been going away suddenly coming back.

Chu Beihe stood under the eaves, looking at Jiang Xuxu who was still sitting alone in the yard, his brows slightly wrinkled, not understanding what kind of emotion was at work.

He was indeed planning to go back to his room just now.

But with every step I took, the scene of her sitting alone in the yard eating, and her words that she could do it alone, came to my mind.

Chu Beihe suspected that it was Maihun's emotions that were interfering with him, but he... was indeed disturbed.

So he's back.

When Jiaotu saw him coming back, his eyes lit up. He turned to look at Jiang Xuxu, and saw her winking at him calmly. The boy immediately looked excited, and did not stand there, but turned around and walked into the house.

In just two seconds, half a head popped out of the window at the other end of the corridor.

The next second, Gui Xiaoxu, riding on the black mist, also revealed half of a turtle head from behind him.

Then came Jin Xiaohe and Jin Xiaoxu, who appeared out of nowhere and all leaned on Jiaotu's head, watching the situation in the yard.

After Chu Beihe returned to his original form, he no longer needed to eat every day according to human habits.

But since he sat down, he started eating with Jiang Xuxu.

The meal was prepared in advance by the chef that Jiang Huai arranged for Jiang Xuxu at Jiaotu's request. Not only was the presentation beautiful, but the taste was also amazing.

To the disappointment of Jiaotu and the others, after Chu Beihe sat down, the two began to eat without exchanging a single word throughout the entire meal.

When we say we are having dinner together, we really just eat together.

Jiaotu was almost going crazy. He knew that Jiang Xuxu was a quiet person and not very good at taking the initiative, but the stage had been set for her, so he should at least say something.

And there is this Chu Beihe!

Who taught you to eat a candlelight dinner like this!

Just when Jiaotu was anxious and wanted to rush out several times, Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe finally stopped what they were doing, each picked up the water cup on the table and took a sip, then looked at each other.

Chu Beihe finally seemed to have heard Jiaotu's prayer and took the initiative to speak.

"I know Li Ting told you about me, so you should remember that as a dragon vein, I will fall into a deep sleep again every once in a while, and even I cannot control this time. It may be ten years, or even a hundred years."

He says,

"Every time I wake up from a deep sleep, my memories of the past fade, and as time goes by, those memories will only be simple memories in my mind...

Just like the earth will always remember everything that has happened on this land, but will not feel sad or upset about it.

This situation is inevitable even if I turn back into the Chu Beihe you know. In this case, do you still want to continue?"

He didn't say what she was insisting on, but they both understood.

Jiang Xuxu listened to him quietly, then finally looked at him and spoke, without any ambiguity in his tone.

"I don't know what will happen in ten or a hundred years. I only care about the present. As for what you said about memories becoming dull..."

When she got to this point, her voice slowed down, her eyes suddenly fell on him, and she suddenly changed the subject and asked him,

"Chu Beihe, since we met again, you have been wearing casual clothes. Is it because you prefer this style?"

Chu Beihe didn't know why she suddenly brought this up, but he still replied subconsciously,

"I wear this because in the memories of Chu Beihe, I am like this..."

He stopped talking suddenly in the middle of his words.

Just now, a memory suddenly lit up in my mind.

Because he never tried to think about it, he almost forgot it.

When he was the head of the Chu family, he was always dressed in a suit and tie and was meticulous.

It was because…her brother always disliked him because he was older than her.

So later, he put aside those monotonous and meticulous suits and started to dress himself more youthfully.

Make myself look more...appropriate when standing next to her.

After waking up, he followed Chu Beihe's previous habits and did not notice anything unusual about these habits.

But she noticed.

Also, reminded him.

As long as the memory is still there, even if it has faded away for a while, as long as the right opportunity comes, the faded memory will be awakened.

Just a gentle blow can blow away the dust on it, revealing the original color underneath.

Chu Beihe looked at Jiang Xuxu in front of him, and the color of her wearing a little dress when she had dinner with him suddenly lit up in his mind.

Bright and light.

Jiang Xuxu seemed to notice his mood change. She suddenly stood up, walked to his side, bent down slightly, and put her head close to him.

Her clear eyes penetrated through the layers of golden light and finally looked clearly into his eyes.

And she saw herself in his eyes.

"Chu Beihe, memory won't lie. Since you have our past memories, I will assume that you are still the same person.

If you just lack the emotion in that memory, then I will help you find it back."

After she said that, without waiting for Chu Beihe to react, she leaned forward and, unexpectedly, gave him a light kiss on the forehead.
