Chapter 74. Because Christmas is coming

"I have nothing more to say, you did."

"Of course." Guan Zimo stood upright, her metallic voice made her look confident, but the slightly sunken eyes revealed that she was extremely tired recently, and her physical strength was a bit overdrawn.

Grandpa Guan looked at the granddaughter in front of him who gave him a headache and helplessness, and smiled weakly. She did indeed do it, so he can hand over Guan Duo to her with confidence.The three-year agreement, if after three years, Guan Zimo can expand Guan Duo's weakest shipping business to all parts of the world, covering all parts of the world with the group's business bases, then he will not interfere with her private life, and It was an indirect acknowledgment of Ning Xi'er's "legal" status.In fact, he sent people to investigate at the beginning, and they did not register their marriage in any country. At present, there are thirteen countries in the world that recognize same-sex marriage, plus Massachusetts and Connecticut in the United States. Originally, California was one of the few in the United States. There are only two states that allow gay marriage, but last November, the local government passed a proposal to ban gay marriage, so there are actually only two states in the United States that allow gays to get married.He used all his forces to set up multiple distribution points in these countries, preventing Guan Zimo's idea of ​​registering marriage abroad.

He once thought that the three-year agreement could alleviate the intense conflict between their grandparents and grandchildren, if he and Guan Zimo continued to be strangers like this, the result would only be the result of painstaking efforts to manage Guan Duo all over his body; Zi Mo has the strength to destroy Guan Duo with her own hands, as long as she wants, she can do it.The reason why she didn't do this may be the same as his real purpose. His real thought was just to make sure whether this Ning Xi'er was worthy of his granddaughter's love. He also thought about it, no matter whether Guan Zimo loved a man or a woman, he hoped that her partner would be someone worthy of being with him for life.

He regretted his decision at first, after all, three years, whether it is long or short, but the maritime transportation business operated by his ancestors for several generations did not come to an end in the end. , Such a harsh treaty is really a bit like a grandfather embarrassing his granddaughter, but this granddaughter surprised him. The other party completed this impossible task in less than two years, which is really beyond his control. expected.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Mr. Guan asked the doubts in his heart, he did not ignore the thick dark circles under Guan Zimo's eyes.

The hand that was picking up the copywriting on the table stopped for a moment, looked out the window, and his eyes fell to an unknown corner, warm and soft. "It's almost Christmas." As if thinking of something, she gently tore off the high-necked skirt that bound her neck, lowered her head and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

"Christmas?" The old man sounded a little confused.

"Yeah." Turning around, his eyes fell on the long-aged Guan Lao. In the winter in the north, the kneecap of the other party who suffers from pain every year is trembling slightly at this moment. For some reason, it came out of his mouth unconsciously. A long absence, no, it should be a caring greeting that I have never had since I can remember——

"In the future, you don't have to come here often and pay attention to your health."

After saying this, the two of them were stunned at the same time, and Guan Zimo took the copywriting on the table and pushed the door out when the other party was about to speak.

The old man looked at the back of Guan Zimo leaving, and lowered his head slightly. The shadow of the sun could not see the expression of the old man. This sentence is a family greeting that is so common in the eyes of ordinary people. He has been waiting for more than ten years. It was her attitude towards him. He thought that he would die with such regret when he stepped into the coffin. The glory of the family did not give him a trace of family warmth. Live with nothing.Hearing Guan Zimo say these words to himself at least offset the few regrets in his heart.

"Xiao Xiao, take me to Ning's house."

"Chairman, are you sure, the wind is very strong now, I'm afraid you..."

"It's not the chairman anymore, the old man is alone, go to Ning's house, go now."

"Yes." The driver nodded and turned around.

I'm wishingonastar

I guess that Santa's busy

Cause he's never come around

I think of him when Christmas comes to town

When she stepped into a corner drink shop, she opened the door and walked in. The bell on the ancient wooden door was tied with a bright red ribbon, and the warm interior of the shop was dotted with Christmas decorations. Guan Zimo walked to the cashier and prepared When ordering a bitter mantulin as usual, the Christmas songs that gradually hit her ears made her dazed for a moment, and her eyes fell on the menu with a few lines left.

"Caramel pudding."

The store manager gave her a slightly surprised look, then turned around with a smile and prepared creme brulee.

"My guest, you seem to be in a good mood today." The chubby French store manager handed the drink to the guest in front of him.

"?" There was some doubt in the ice blue eyes.

"Forgive me, but you are always a Mantling in our store. I thought that this is the only hot drink I prepared." The French store manager giggled. After operating for so long, this cold drink The tough woman left a lot of impressions on him. This woman who came to buy hot drinks alone every time would always order a glass of Mantulin, then get up and leave quietly without seeing anyone else, like all the beautiful things around her. The scenery has nothing to do with her.

Guan Zimo was not a talkative person, so he nodded slightly and was about to turn around and leave.

"Please wait."

Suddenly there was a box of drinks in his hand, and he looked at the boss in front of him with some doubts.

"Christmas is coming, thanks to Santa Claus, buy one and get one free in the store. It's better to share desserts with people you like. May God be with you."

"Thank you."

For the first time, she expressed her sincere gratitude to a stranger for his kindness.

On this day, she was in a surprisingly good mood.It seemed that she had accepted the boss's kindness, and wanted to share this winter dessert with that person in a hurry, so when she stopped at the door, she still gasped a little.With even force in her palm, she slowly pushed open the iron door. This door was so heavy that it seemed that a lot of strength was needed to open it. She was careful, fearing that the person was resting at the moment, and finally she pushed the door and entered. , reflected in her eyes the color of a winter icy lake.

The man was wearing a cute sanitary cap and a flower-printed apron on his back. His long chestnut hair was casually tied into a ponytail and hung softly behind his ears.Her shoulders are so weak, her neck is slender, but her waist is very straight, and her soft shoulders tremble slightly with her slender arms.She is standing on a slightly higher step decorating the curtains.She is humming a tune, fluttering like an elf swaying in the wind, she will pause for a while when she forgets a word, and then use a single note like "la la la" with a blushing face, such a lovely and charming His actions will always unknowingly affect Guan Zimo's heart.

I don't know if it's because it's a bit high, but Ning Xi'er's hair fell off as she raised her head back and forth. The soft hair always fell mischievously on her cheeks, making her always reach out It was in the ear, of course, it slipped down again and again.

Depressedly, she stuffed her annoying hair behind her ears again. There were still a few flowers that could be decorated on it, and she stretched out her hand with some difficulty...

The singing stopped abruptly, Guan Zimo dodged behind the door subconsciously, and saw through the half-covered door, Ning Xier was standing on the steps, struggling to stick the stickers on, of course her mouth was still broken read.

"Oh, this hair..."

She wrinkled her face in distress, the flowers stuck to her hair miraculously, bent down a little at a loss, all her attention was on her hair, and she didn't notice the people behind her.

Dressed in black, she walked into the other party's pure white world that exudes soft light. The warm winter sun scattered into the room. She was very comfortable under this hazy and soft light...

Just when Ning Xi'er was about to ramble about the culprit who made trouble without mercy, a gentle touch hit her head, and her cold fingers lightly brushed her ears, and she gathered her hair and tied it into a ponytail.

She turned around in a panic, slipped on her feet, almost tripped, and was supported by the other party.

"Don't stand so high next time." With a slight reproach in his eyes, he held Ning Xi'er's waist with one hand, and glued the petals in the other's hand to the curtain with the other.

"Zimo, why did you come back so early?" She brushed her hair embarrassingly. She originally planned to give the other party a surprise. In fact, it was not a surprise. She just wanted to decorate the room and make the room look warmer. It's so deserted, and Christmas is coming, so it's a good time for cleaning.Unexpectedly, the other party came home so early today, Ning Xi'er was a little surprised.

"I want to see you soon."

Straightforward words would always make Ning Xi'er blush. In order to hide a little shyness in her heart, she walked around Guan Zimo like a brisk little oriole, "I'll get you a glass of water." Then he turned and walked towards the kitchen in the living room to pour him a cup of coffee.

Guan Zimo looked at Ning Xier's happy smile in surprise, as if they hadn't had such a pleasant conversation recently.Ning Xi'er was able to talk to herself with a smile like this, no matter what the reason was, she already felt very happy.With a smile on her cold face, she followed Ning Xi'er into the kitchen.

"This is... ah, creme brulee!!"

With the expected exclamation, Ning Xi'er opened the carton and saw her favorite drink, then blinked at Guan Zimo behind her.

"Why did you buy this?" Some wondered why the other party would buy such a sweet drink.

Guan Zimo looked at Ning Xi'er looking directly at him, his ears were slightly red, and he coughed expressionlessly, and just when he was about to blurt out those deceptive words, he was thrown into a warm hug in his arms.

"Don't say anything."

Ning Xier took the initiative to throw herself into the other party's arms and kissed him. At this moment, she could even hear the faster heartbeat of the other party. "Thank you."

What to do, she still loves her very much, this person is still Zi Mo, she hasn't changed, she is still the same.God, she still can't give up, can't give up this relationship.Can she stubbornly think that Zi Mo still has some attachment to her in her heart,

She was never afraid of parting, she was just worried, if she was gone, would this cold person be able to live a good life?The other party is dull, cold, and has a bad head. She believes everything, has a poisonous mouth, and gets angry from time to time. Despite this, she is gentler than anyone else, and cares about her more than anyone else in this world...

So she can't go, can't leave here, she has to cheer up and accompany the other party well, and return to the other party's heart.She even concealed the fact that Zi Mo's woman had come to her door, a little selfishly keeping the other party's right to know.Will that Gongyu treat her well, will he treat Zimo like himself, no, definitely not, no one in this world can love her more than her...

So, Heavenly Father, please be a good person once, so that Zi Mo will not be seduced by that woman again, and come back to her side again.

Ning Xi'er caressed Guan Zimo's cheek, looked into the other's gentle blue waves, so she made up her mind.

"Ciel?"

"Ok?"

Guan Zimo looked at Ning Xi'er's firm little eyes with clenched fists for a while, and a distressed little expression for a while. Such a cute look made her hug him and kiss Ning Xi'er's forehead. She likes to be with him Getting close should be said to be fanatical, but there is a reason why they have been so infrequently lately.

"Where's the little guy?" She suppressed the pain in her heart, stopped her hand when she was about to touch the soft place that made her crazy, and asked in a hoarse voice.

"Hmm... Moxi was taken away by Shili." Ning Xi'er hadn't recovered from the edge of the fire just now, and her voice was a little erratic, "But didn't Shili say that he will come back next month? Why is it so early? Good morning, as soon as I came back, I took the little baby out for a walk, and couldn't stop blinking at me..."

"That's it," there was not much surprise in her tone, the corners of her eyes were slightly squinted, and she looked at Ning Xi'er's half-dressed and charming expression. Lips that were about to drip, "Xie'er, promise me that you will take a good rest these few days."

During the conversation, he inadvertently put on half-naked clothes for the other party, touched the other party's narrow waist, stared at the other party's slender fingers, and smiled.

"Why?" There was inevitably a sense of loss in her tone, and she even looked forward to the intimacy between Zi Mo and herself.

"Because Christmas is coming."
