After getting on with the enemy

The small reunion lunch ended around one o'clock, and no one touched the remaining half bowl of soup. Zhou Xiyun didn't drink other people's leftovers, and Qiao Yan wouldn't take another sip.

After closing the table, two young people cleaned up the mess and were responsible for washing dishes and cleaning.

The afternoon was sunny and warm.

A few people take a rest first, and plan to go out for a walk later.The three elders were in good spirits. After dinner, they went to the coffee table to chat and watch TV. Qiao Yan went upstairs to catch up on sleep. Before going out, he had to change his clothes again. Zhou Xiyun also went back to the opposite room and had other things to do .

The pace of life in Xijing compound is slow, and the surrounding area becomes quiet at this time.

It's been the same for so many years.

The light outside was too bright, too harsh, and the windows had to be closed.

Qiao Yan went to draw the curtains, and inadvertently raised her eyes to look diagonally across.

The window of Zhou Xiyun's room was opened again, and the scene over there could be glimpsed more clearly from here.

The layout of the man's room is still the same, not bad from before, bed, table and chairs, bookshelf, wardrobe... Even the location is the same as when he was a child.Zhou Xiyun didn't like fancy styles, there wasn't even a mural on the wall, and the only decoration was a pot of prickly prickly pears.

The prickly pear by the window was a gift from my grandma. I bought two pots that year, and the other pot belonged to Qiao Yan.

—— Qiao Yan's pot died when she was in her third year of high school. It was left indoors for too long, and she forgot to water it and move it out to bask in the sun. By the time she found it, it had already become an empty shell.

As soon as he caught a glimpse of the old thing, Qiao Yan couldn't help but look at it more.

Zhou Xiyun has been studying abroad for five years. Although he will come back during the holidays, it is a miracle that the prickly pear is still alive.After all, Zhou Huiwen is often on business trips, so she may not be able to help her daughter take care of this little thing, and I don't know how to raise it until now.

There was no one on the opposite side, and Zhou Xiyun was not on the second floor.

After watching for a while, Qiao Yan turned around and lay down on the bed.

The two families agreed to go out at three o'clock in the afternoon. They planned to go shopping in the pedestrian street over the financial city, wander around casually, and then go to the steam room for a sauna.

After taking a nap, Qiao Yan changed into a solid-colored sky blue dress, the style showing a section at the back of the waist, fresh and a little sexy.She doesn't wear makeup, so there's no need to do it if her skin is good, just add some water. Anyway, even if she wears makeup, she has to remove it after entering the steam room.

When Qiao Yan went downstairs with her bag, grandma and Ms. Xu were already waiting at the door.

This trip was picked up by Zhou Xiyun by car, and the others just went up, don't worry about anything else.

Zhou Xiyun bought a new car, the Audi A6 he drove a few years ago, and now it's an impressive black Bentley.

Qiao Yan was not familiar with cars, and he could recognize the brand, but he didn't know the specific model. He knew that the price of a new car should not be cheap, and it must be much higher than his own little broken car.

The Zhou family is really rich. Zhou Huiwen has been in business since her daughter was a child, and she has made a lot of money in recent years. It's no secret.

Speaking of which, if Zhou's ancestors had not insisted on staying in the compound and refused to move out, Zhou Huiwen could not find other relatives to help take care of the children at that time, and he was worried about leaving them to the nanny, so he would come back. Well, Zhou Huiwen might have taken her daughter away from home a long time ago, how could she return to this corner to live for so long.

Therefore, to a certain extent, Qiao Yan and Zhou Xiyun were not considered to be of the same class. They were supposed to have an impossible relationship.

Zhou Xiyun parked the car outside the gate of Qiao's house and got down to help his grandma up.

Qiao Yan glanced at the white Volkswagen Lavida next to him, feeling more and more shabby.

There is really no comparison between people, and the gap between the two is getting bigger and bigger.

Zhou Huiwen greeted Qiao Yan to get into the car.

"Come here, take the co-pilot, and your mother and I will go to the back."

Qiao Yan responded, opened the door, and bent down to get in the car.

Zhou Xiyun came up last, closed the car door softly, and sat down.The man looked at the passenger seat after getting up, and then reminded: "Seat belt."

Qiao Yan was flipping through his phone, and was distracted by replying to the message. He didn't realize that the words were addressed to himself at the first moment, so he didn't respond.

"Fasten your seat belt." Zhou Xiyun said again.

Qiao Yan turned his head and looked at it meekly, his movements were a little slow, and he still held the phone tightly in his hand.

Zhou Xiyun didn't say anything more, but leaned over suddenly, put one hand on the center console box, and stretched out the other hand to help Qiao Yan buckle the seat belt.

Qiao Yan hadn't slowed down yet, when he felt the other party approaching, he straightened his back, pressed his whole body tightly against the seat, and raised his chin slightly.

As the distance suddenly shortened, for a moment, Qiao Yan smelled the faint scent of perfume on Zhou Xiyun's body.

It is a fresh herbal fragrance with a neutral taste and a nice smell.

This kind of behavior makes them more intimate, and also reveals a little bit of ambiguity.

Even though Zhou Xiyun didn't touch Qiao Yan's body during the whole process, he avoided it without leaving a trace.

Qiao Yan was stunned, like a piece of human-shaped wood.

The sense of oppression in front of her was too strong, and it restrained her tightly.

Maybe it's because I haven't experienced such a situation before, these few seconds seem to be infinitely extended.With trembling eyelashes, Qiao Yan could clearly see the small fluff on Zhou Xiyun's ear.

Putting on his seat belt, Zhou Xiyun sat back calmly.

It seemed that Cai Cai's behavior was not important at all, it could not represent anything, it was just an unintentional effort.

Qiao Yan reflexively wanted to say thank you, but the words stopped on his lips and didn't come out.She pretended not to care about such details, treating it as an ordinary interpersonal communication, and then tried her best to ignore the strange feeling in her heart.

The two are always the most compatible at this moment, and they are tacit to each other.

Zhou Xiyun started the car, turned the steering wheel and drove out.

Qiao Yan looked around and found that Xu Ziqing and the others had been chatting in low voice after getting into the car, not paying much attention to the front.She lightly bit the soft flesh on the inside of her lips, then continued to play with her phone with her head down.

There are many people on weekends, and the pedestrian street is bustling.

There was no traffic jam in the past, and the road was unimpeded.

After the group got out of the car, Zhou Xiyun parked the Bentley in an outdoor paid parking lot with special guards, and then followed everyone's pace.

It was a good afternoon, two hours at a time.

Both Xu Ziqing and Zhou Huiwen like to buy, buy and buy. After going to the street, they would go shopping and buy everything they like.Zhou Huiwen also led Ms. Xu to the luxury store to look at the bags. She was in a good mood to scan the goods. She took three bags within 10 minutes after entering the store, two of which were pre-ordered.

Qiao Yan didn't like shopping, so she was responsible for taking care of grandma the whole time, helping the old man from time to time, or leading grandma to a store for a while, resting her feet and drinking some drinks, waiting outside for the two elders to come out.

The same goes for Zhou Xiyun, who will accompany his mother to carry the bags a few times, and stay with grandma most of the time.

Passing by a cake shop, Qiao Yan asked her grandma, "Do you want this? I'll buy it for you."

The old man is also greedy when he is old, so he nodded when he heard the words, "I want to eat."

Qiao Yan asked, "Which one do you want to eat, or should I just buy it?"

Grandma was confused, and couldn't remember clearly, so she opened her mouth and said, "The bread from last time is the kind your boyfriend bought."

The word "boyfriend" is really abrupt, and the amount of information is not small.

Zhou Xiyun looked sideways and heard this.

Grandma couldn't remember, thought about it hesitantly, and said, "Just last time...that young man was tall and big, the day I sent you home."

This was last month, days ago.

The young man was not Qiao Yan's boyfriend, but a mover he found online.That day Qiao Yan moved a lot of luggage and things to leave, and ran back and forth three times to get it done. It happened that the last trip was in time for lunch, so Xu Ziqing politely invited the master to have a meal.

As for the bread, Qiao Yan bought it, not someone else.

Qiao Yan explained: "You remember wrongly, that's not my boyfriend."

Grandma said "ah" in doubt.

It's not the first time this has happened. The old man has a poor memory and always gets the facts wrong.Qiao Yan didn't explain too much, and said softly, "The one from last time was an European bag. I'll buy it for you right away. You wait here first, and I'll be back in a while."

Grandma didn't bother about her boyfriend, so she nodded in agreement.

Zhou Xiyun stayed outside to wait with his grandma, and Qiao Yan told him to stand on the side of the road and not to walk around.Zhou Xiyun didn't reply, but he did as he did.

It doesn't take time to buy a cake, it takes only 10 minutes before and after.

Qiao Yan came back after buying a small bag of bread, just as Xu Ziqing and the others appeared with the bag.It was almost time, and they went to the steam room again.

Zhou Huiwen booked a place here in advance, and they would go to a separate boutique private room to take a shower and change clothes to enjoy more thoughtful service and treatment.

Qiao Yan and Zhou Xiyun went in one after the other, and after changing the clothes in the steam room, they tidied up again.

Qiao Yan was very lazy. After washing, she didn't want to tie her hair by herself, so she had to ask Xu Ziqing to do it for her.

Ms. Xu had to take care of her grandmother, so she had no time to take care of her daughter, so she asked Zhou Xiyun to do it for her.Zhou Xiyun did not refuse, but agreed.

Qiao Yan didn't mind this, and put the hair tie on Zhou Xiyun's hand, "Tie me a nice ball head."

Zhou Xiyun took the headband and stood behind her.

Qiao Yan asked worriedly, "Will it be tied?"

Zhou Xiyun pressed her shoulder, "Yes."

"Don't tie it so tightly, it hurts your scalp if you tighten it."

"Ah."

There are elders, and the relationship between them is extremely harmonious.

Zhou Xiyun combed Qiao Yan's hair first, ran his fingers through her jet-black hair, and then gathered it up, grasping all of them together.

Qiao Yan sat down quietly, put his hands on the seat, touched the ground with his heels, and straightened his white and tender legs.

"Put it higher." Qiao Yan said.

Zhou Xiyun responded, brushed her broken hair back, and touched her ear with his fingertips.

Qiao Yan was very sensitive, and couldn't stand being touched here, so she couldn't help avoiding it.

Zhou Xiyun bent his index finger to touch her side face, slowly rubbed it twice, and said in a low voice, "Don't move..."
