When Jian Qiao returned to her work station from the infirmary, Gu Ge found that the man had a bright smile on his face, dazzling and gorgeous, comparable to the sun at noon in August.

Gu Ge bent his lips, suppressed the curiosity in his heart, continued to sit upright, bowed his head and worked hard.

Jian Qiao couldn't sit still, covered her mouth and coughed twice, then got up and went directly to Li Wan's office, her steps were light and joyful, and the corners of her eyes and brows were shining with uncontrollable joy.

At that time, Li Wan was talking on the phone with a foreign partner, and she was not free. When she saw Jian Qiao pushing the door in, she just glanced at her with sideways eyes, and then continued to speak French while holding the phone.

Jian Qiao didn't interrupt her, but stood still for a moment, then helped her refill a cup of hot coffee, and thoughtfully added two spoonfuls of honey to it.

After finally waiting for Li Wan to end the call, unexpectedly, the manager of the marketing department came to deliver documents and report on work, Jian Qiao saw the situation and retreated silently.

After returning from the cafeteria at noon, Jian Qiao planned to go to Li Wan's office to talk to her, but Li Wan was not there.

Jian Qiao lay on the sofa, staring at the ceiling in a daze for a while.Unexpectedly, Li Wan didn't come back until the end of the lunch break.

After work in the evening, Jian Qiao took the bus back to the villa alone.

Jian Qiao felt a little lost, she didn't know where Li Wan had gone, and she couldn't contact this person.

"Dinner is ready, wash your hands and come over to eat." Seeing that Jian Qiao came back alone, Uncle Tong thought that Li Wan stayed at the company to work overtime.

Jian Qiao snorted, went back to her room, changed her clothes, washed her hands, and went to the restaurant area.

After the meal, Jian Qiao took the initiative to do the work of washing the dishes and clearing the table, but Uncle Tong was not polite to her.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Li Wan finally came back.Hearing the movement, Jian Qiao immediately put down the winter cub in her arms, and ran to her room excitedly.

Li Wan stretched out her hand and pinched Jian Qiao's cheeks naturally, her words revealed a bit of tiredness: "I'm very tired today, I'm going to take a shower first."

Jane Qiao nodded obediently.

About half an hour later, Li Wan came out of the bathroom in her nightgown.

Jian Qiao leaned forward and said softly, "You just need to lie on the bed, and I'll blow your hair for you."

"Yeah." Li Wan took off the dry hair cap, and her tea-green hair fell down instantly, making her pale and smooth face even more radiant and beautiful.

Jian Qiao was obsessed with the hair dryer, her movements were delicate and gentle, and she was full of patience. After a while, Li Wan fell asleep.

Jian Qiao stopped the hair dryer and put it aside, then gently brushed away the curly hair around Li Wan's ears, and stared blankly at this person's profile...it's so beautiful.

Time passed by bit by bit, until Dongzai came to knock on the door, and Jian Qiao recovered from the indulgent smirk... She tiptoed over to open the door, bent down and made a booing motion to Dongzai.Dong Zai understood and didn't meow.

Jian Qiao turned back, carefully adjusted Li Wan's sleeping position, covered her with the quilt and turned off the light, and then returned to her bedroom with Dong Cub.

That night, Jian Qiao slept very soundly, and woke up at dawn.It's just that when she went downstairs to have breakfast, Li Wan had already driven to the company.

After that, until the weekend, Jian Qiao didn't see Li Wan, who went on a business trip with Gu Ge.

While Jian Qiao was depressed, she couldn't help but wonder if she was hallucinating that day?Did Li Wan ever say to give it a try?

On Saturday afternoon, Jian Qiao, who was typing in her room, received a call from Aunt Du, who asked her if she was free and wanted her to have a light meal at home.

Jane Joe agreed.After reporting and preparing on WeChat with Li Wan, she greeted Uncle Tong, and she set off with Dong Zai in the car.

Pippi in Aunt Du's house hadn't seen Dongzai for a long time, and now the two little ones reunited suddenly, Pippi was so happy, jumping and jumping, and her tail was wagging non-stop.

Winter Cub meowed lazily twice as a response.

As soon as she entered the yard, Jian Qiao could smell the strong aroma of rice, and she couldn't help sniffing.

"Auntie, what delicious food did you make?"

Aunt Du had a loving face: "I stewed mutton scorpions, didn't you say you wanted to eat this when you came last time?"

Jian Qiao was startled, she just said it casually at the time, but she didn't expect Aunt Du to take it to heart.

"Don't stand there stupidly, come in and serve me the food." Aunt Du smiled and patted Jian Qiao's arm.

Grinning, Jian Qiao followed Aunt Du to the wooden house, while the two little guys ran around happily in the yard.

At the dinner table, the winter cub sitting next to Jian Qiao kept pawing at Jian Qiao's knees with its front paws, meowing non-stop, asking her to eat mutton.

"Forget it if you're hungry." Jian Qiao rinsed a piece of deboned mutton in a paper cup filled with water before feeding it.

Aunt Du was not idle either, she took out the meat bones that had lost the salty taste and gave them to Pippi to chew on.

After the meal, Pippi and Dongzai were either playing or running around, and the other two sat in the living room chatting about the housework.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was 09:30 in the evening.

Before parting, Aunt Du held Jian Qiao's hand reluctantly, and Jian Qiao was deeply touched: "Auntie, I will come to see you when I have time, and if you miss me, please call me."

Aunt Du nodded and told her to pay more attention to her body and not to stay up late.

"I know." Jian Qiao smiled slightly.

Aunt Du watched Jian Qiao get into the car, the car drove away and disappeared, so she slowly turned around...

At three o'clock in the morning at night, a rapid ringtone of the mobile phone woke up Jian Qiao who was sleeping.She touched the mobile phone next to the pillow by feeling, and squinted to look at the screen: it was Aunt Du calling.

The call so late must be because there is something urgent for her. Jian Qiao hurriedly swiped the screen to answer the call, and Aunt Du's weak and painful voice came over immediately.

Aunt Du fell down, and she sounded very serious.

Jian Qiao quickly put on the clothes for going out, grabbed the car keys and went to the garage.

Hearing Jian Qiao's call to the door, Aunt Du walked to the gate with a pale face and her hands on her waist.

"Auntie, did you hurt your waist?" Jian Qiao looked worried.

Aunt Du nodded.

"I'll take you to the hospital right now." After finishing the sentence, Jianqiao took the ID card, medical insurance card and door key handed over by Aunt Du.

Because both the sons and daughters are abroad, and Mr. Du is not here, Auntie Du is always helped by Jian Qiao when she sees a doctor.

It was only later that Jian Qiao learned that before going to bed that night, Aunt Du read a piece of news that a Chinese student studying in the United States had been killed.

Coincidentally, the victim was not only about the same age as her son, but also a schoolmate of her son.Perhaps stimulated by this news, Aunt Du had nightmares at night. While struggling, she accidentally fell off the bed and landed on the wooden steps.

She originally had an old disease in her waist, plus this accident, she had to stay in the hospital for surgery.

Mr. Du rushed back from other places in the afternoon of the second day, and he was struggling all the way, looking a little embarrassed.

"Good boy, it's really thanks to you this time, thank you so much." After asking the doctor about Aunt Du's condition, Mr. Du held Jian Qiao's hand tightly and thanked her sincerely.

Jian Qiao politely replied with a few polite words.

On the day of Aunt Du's operation, Sister Du came back from abroad. Jian Qiao and Li Wan happened to meet Aunt Du when they visited Aunt Du with a fruit basket.

After talking with Aunt Du, Sister Du called Jian Qiao out alone to express her gratitude.

Jian Qiao hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you planning to settle abroad in the future?"

Sister Du Xiao was surprised, she didn't expect Jian Qiao to ask such a private question, but she also answered frankly that she had such a plan.

Jian Qiao pursed her lips, and said something in her heart: "You, your brother and Mr. Du are away all year round, and Aunt Du is quite lonely at home alone, otherwise she wouldn't stay in the house in the city, Go to the suburbs to be with chickens and ducks, grow vegetables and raise dogs... If Mr. Du hadn't insisted on this accident, you probably wouldn't know about Aunt Du's fall... She actually misses you very much on weekdays, but she is afraid Too much nagging will affect your pace of chasing your dreams, so you can only bury your deep thoughts in your heart."

Sister Du Xiaoxiao listened quietly, without interrupting Jian Qiao, she just glanced at her lightly after she finished speaking: "Are you working in Li's now?"

Jian Qiao was obviously taken aback, and immediately realized the meaning of her words.

"Don't think too much, I'm not a lobbyist sent by Vice President Li, but there are old people in my own family, who are older than Aunt Du, and I've blamed myself and felt guilty for not always being filial when I stayed in Jing County. , That’s why I want to persuade you whether to consider returning to China for development... Your mother and daughter are so far apart, it’s not easy to meet each other, let alone accompany and take care of you. I just don’t want to see you regret it in the future... And no matter what you believe Believe it or not, my concern for Aunt Du comes from the bottom of my heart."

"Understood... I will seriously consider your suggestion." Sister Du paused, then bowed and said, "In short, thank you for my mother's matter this time."

"You don't have to, I just did what I had to do."

From Aunt Du's hospitalization to her discharge, Sister Du's elder brother, Du Sijun, did not come back once, and only made a few phone calls during the period. Sister Du did not stay long, only two or three days.In addition, Elder Du also temporarily left Jing County because of an emergency meeting.

After work that day, Jian Qiao went to Aunt Du's house.

Aunt Du leaned halfway on the bed, endured the disappointment in her heart, and forced a smile: "They are too busy, not to mention that this is not a big deal for me, and Lao Du even entrusted relatives to take care of me."

Jian Qiao didn't say anything, but warmly embraced her gently: "Let the aunt who came to help you rest now, I want you to have a taste of my craft, you must appreciate it."

Aunt Du's eye circles were slightly red, and she responded repeatedly.

The few side dishes Jian Qiao made were newly learned from the cook in the company cafeteria. They are light in taste and nourishing. Aunt Du loves them very much.

During the call from grandma, Jian Qiao also gave Aunt Du her mobile phone, and asked them to chat for a while.

On the phone, Aunt Du praised Jian Qiao to her grandmother, saying that she is sensible, well-behaved, caring, kind...

Grandma laughed heartily, and took the opportunity to tell a lot of interesting stories about Jian Qiao's childhood. The two old people chatted very speculatively.

One weekend at the end of July, Aunt Du, who had recovered from her back injury, and Jian Qiao took the high-speed train back to Jiyang.On the way, Aunt Du said it was just to relax.

"Your Jane's family has good girls, and I see that your sister Jian Yu is also pretty good." After taking a bath in the evening, Aunt Du took Jian Qiao to chat at night.

"Ah."

Aunt Du got up and closed the window: "You sisters have a deep relationship, right? I can see that she loves you very much."

Jian Qiao sighed inaudibly, she didn't want to talk about this, so she talked about other topics.

Aunt Du didn't think much about it either.

The next morning, Jian Yu came over. Grandma opened the door before Jian Qiao woke up.

"This girl is really diligent, she is a model of a good wife and mother." Auntie Du had just finished washing, when she came out of grandma's room, she happened to see Jian Yu going to the kitchen, and complimented grandma casually.

"Yes, it's a pity that some people don't know how to cherish it." Grandma murmured in a low voice, but because the volume was too low, Aunt Du couldn't hear clearly.

After breakfast, grandma called Aunt Du to go out for a walk. Only Jian Qiao and Jian Yu were left in the room, and the atmosphere was a little silent.

"I'm still a little sleepy, so I'll go back to my room to catch up on sleep." Jian Qiao moved the chair with her buttocks, and Jian Yu immediately stood up.

"Sister," Jian Yu said aggrievedly, "Can you stop hiding from me on purpose...you make me feel very uncomfortable like this."

Jian Qiao stopped and looked back at her, but before she could speak, Jian Yu suddenly rushed over and hugged her.

"I miss you so much... even in my dreams it's you." Jian Yu couldn't help herself, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Jian Qiao was at a loss for words, and wanted to push Jian Yu away, but found that she was hugged tightly, and she was unwilling to use brute force to treat the person in front of her, so she could only soften her voice: "Yu'er, let me go first. "

"I don't want...or you will run away again."

"Yu'er, be obedient, let go first," Jian Qiao Xiaoli patted Jian Yu's back to comfort her, "You hug her so tightly...I feel very uncomfortable."

Jian Yu subconsciously lowered her strength when she heard this, but still maintained the posture of hugging her.

Jian Qiao was helpless: "Yu'er, you know very well that I don't have that kind of affection for you, so don't be stupid for me anymore."

Jian Yu bit her lip and looked at her with tears in her eyes: "Did she promise to be with you?"

"……No."

Jian Yu's eyes flashed: "That means I still have a chance."

Jian Qiao felt a headache: "Our matter has nothing to do with Li Wan..."

"Stop talking," Jian Yu interrupted her stubbornly, "I don't want to hear it."

Jian Qiao closed her eyes and sighed. When Jian Yu heard this, she stood on tiptoe and quickly kissed her on the cheek. The movement was very light, as if she had just touched the water...
