Rose Manor

Shen Jianian put down the organizing work at hand and went to help Fu Jichen pack the things he wanted to bring for the business trip.

She checked the recent weather conditions in Switzerland on her mobile phone. In addition to the necessary business attire, her daily clothes were more suitable for the local temperature.

Shen Jianian squatted beside the open suitcase and asked, "How long are you going to stay there?"

"It depends on the situation." Fu Jichen couldn't give an accurate return date, so he could only promise her, "I will handle the matter as soon as possible and then come back."

Shen Jianian held a gray grid-shaped toiletry bag in his hand, stood up and looked at him: "Is the matter serious?"

She didn't understand business matters. Judging from his emergency trip abroad in the middle of the night, it should be a bit tricky.

Fu Jichen put his arms around her waist, held her in his arms, and rubbed his hands back and forth on her back a few times: "Don't worry, no matter how big the difficulty is, there will always be a solution."

During his trip there, he not only had to resolve official matters, he might also have to deal with some personal grudges.

Shen Jianian certainly didn't doubt his ability. To be able to sit in his position, his methods and brains were beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Without asking about work matters, Shen Jianian changed the topic: "I'll take you to the airport."

Fu Jichen lowered his head, looked at her leisurely for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Can't bear to leave me?"

In the past, when he asked similar questions, Shen Jia Nian would either pretend not to hear, or prevaricate randomly, never answering directly. This time, she met his eyes and said calmly: "Well, I can't bear to leave you."

Fu Jichen was mentally prepared for her to deny it, but he didn't expect her to admit it so simply. He was a little stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, his heart was filled with warmth, which slowly reflected on his face - the corners of his eyebrows and eyes. smile.

He held her waist harder, as if to hold her into his body, his chin rubbed her neck, and said in a low voice: "It's too late, just stay home and rest."

The flight was around two o'clock in the morning, which was the time for deep sleep. She went to the airport to see him off and then came back. It was almost three o'clock, and she couldn't sleep for long before dawn.

"Will you go to Yan Qiusheng's place to learn piano tomorrow morning? Can you get up?" Fu Jichen added.

Shen Jia Nian slowly raised his head in his arms, knocked his chin on his chest, and said in a rare willful tone: "I can call Teacher Yan to ask for a day off."

After saying this, she thought of something and her eyes suddenly darkened. Maybe she wasn't asking for a day off, but she was asking for leave forever.

Now that she has decided to leave, she definitely can't go to Yan Qiusheng's place again. The thought of living up to his teachings makes her feel regretful, but she has no choice.

Fu Jichen held her little face in his hands and asked warmly, "Are you sure you want to go?"

Shen Jianian raised his two hands to cover the back of his generous hands. His eyes were still so attached and she no longer concealed her feelings for him: "If you don't let me go, I will take a taxi and follow you secretly."

Fu Jichen curled up his lips at her rogue words and pinched the tip of her nose helplessly.

The two of them finished tidying up their things, sat on the sofa to rest, and watched TV programs. Shen Jianian couldn't resist the attack of sleepiness, and his eyelids gradually drooped.

She braced herself to keep herself from falling asleep.

Fu Jichen secretly observed her for a while, put his big hand around her shoulders, patted her twice, and said, "Go to sleep if you feel sleepy. I'll wake you up later."

Shen Jia Nian didn't trust him very much, thinking in her mind that he must be waiting for her to fall asleep and leave quietly. She yawned and said firmly: "I'm not sleepy."

Fu Jichen looked at her childish look and couldn't laugh or cry. He didn't realize that she had such a clingy side before: "I didn't lie to you, there is still more than an hour before departure, enough for you to take a nap."

With that said, he picked up the remote control and turned off the TV.

Without the noisy background sounds, the villa seems empty and quiet, especially at night.

However, having him by his side made Shen Jia Nian feel extremely at ease.

After talking to Wei Ronghua in the afternoon, she had already made her decision. Thinking about it now, she was still a little confused and didn't know where she could go without him.

The world is so big, it seems that there is no place for her, and even if there is, it will not give her such a stable feeling.

Shen Jia Nian grasped the clothes on his body with one hand and closed his eyes gently. His mind was filled with thoughts, thinking of every bit of time he had spent with him...

The first time they met was in the elevator of the hotel. She was pulled by Yin Shuyao and accidentally bumped into him. His dark eyes were full of teasing at that time, and the first thing he said to her was: This lady, with Is this the attitude when people apologize?At that time, she never expected that she would have such a deep bond with him in the near future.

He was strong, domineering, unreasonable, arbitrary, but also gentle, patient, considerate, and meticulous. It was just such a person who quietly walked into her heart and made it impossible for her to forget him.

My heartbeat when I was young was ignorant, but my love at the age of 22 was unforgettable.

On the night of Mr. Fu's birthday party, Fu Jichen took her back to his old house. She learned from Fu Jianfang his purpose of keeping her by his side. She had suspected his ulterior motives, but she never asked him.

She comforted herself that it was a transaction from the beginning, and whether it was true or false was not that important.

Later, in their daily interactions, she became more and more certain that Fu Jichen was not false to her, that he liked her, and that his feelings for her might be deeper than she thought.

This is enough.

Shen Jianian used force with her fingertips to tighten a piece of fabric in her palm. The more sincere he was to her, the less she could put him in a dilemma on such a matter.

Leaving is the best option.

Fu Jichen felt the shirt around his waist tightening. He looked down and saw that Shen Jia Nian's pale pink lips were slightly pursed and her eyelashes were trembling slightly.He thought she was asleep, but she wasn't.

He stroked her face with his warm fingertips and stared at her thoughtfully. For some reason, he felt an indescribable strange feeling in his heart.

Around 10:30, Qu Mo came to Yunding Palace to pick up Fu Jichen and take him to the airport.

Shen Jia Nian fell asleep unconsciously in his wild thoughts, his brows were still furrowed, and his dreams were full of uneasiness.Fu Jichen really wanted to take Shen Jia Nian to bed while she was asleep, but as soon as he moved his body, she woke up immediately. She opened her eyes in a daze and muttered: "Are you leaving?"

Fu Jichen circled her waist and whispered, "Why don't you just stay at home and sleep."

Shen Jianian sat up from his arms, raised his hands and rubbed his cheeks, urging himself to wake up quickly: "I will take you to the airport first, and then I will come back to sleep."

Fu Jichen couldn't defeat her, so he could only let it go.

He held her in one hand and carried the silver-gray suitcase he usually used for business trips in the other hand, and walked into the elevator.

There are a bunch of labels affixed to the handle of the suitcase. They are all traces of previous trips and have not been removed.

The two went out together.

Qu Mo got out of the car and helped put the suitcase. He was not too surprised when he saw Shen Jia Nian accompanying Fu Jichen. The last time her boss went abroad, she also went to the airport to see him off.

The car was driving on the bustling street, and the traffic was still busy at night. It was no different from countless nights in the past, but Shen Jia Nian knew it was different.

This may be the last night she and Fu Jichen spend together, and every minute and every second is precious.

Shen Jianian turned to look at Fu Jichen's side face, her eyes moving from his delicate eyebrows to the high bridge of his nose, to his thin lips, smooth mandible, and slightly raised Adam's apple.

Staring so intently, it was as if he wanted to engrave his appearance deeply in my heart.

Fu Jichen caught her gaze resting on his face from the corner of his eye, turned his head to look at her, a gentle smile appeared on his handsome face, took her hand and put it on his lap: "Aren't you sleepy?"

Shen Jianian shook his head. He was sleepy before, but not at all now.

She took her hand out of his palm, and Fu Jichen was a little confused. The next moment, she leaned over, hugged his thin waist with both hands, and pressed her cheek against his chest, feeling his body temperature and heartbeat.

Fu Jichen was caught off guard and was stunned by her intimate gesture. His arms wrapped around her body: "What happened today? Did you turn into a gummy candy?"

When he spoke, his voice was deep and filled with infinite affection.

Shen Jianian did not deny it. He hummed and admitted that he was a gummy candy. He tightened his arms and hugged him harder.

She looked forward to arriving at the airport later, and then later.

But time keeps passing by, and the airport finally arrives.
