Rose Manor

That night, Fu Jichen stayed in Shen Jianian's room.

Shen Jia Nian came out of the bathroom after taking a shower and knew that something was up when she saw him lying on her bed.She sat in front of the dressing table, applying skin care products slowly, while he leaned on the bedside and flipped through a fashion magazine she threw casually on the bed.

By the time she finished the entire skin care routine, Fu Jichen had already flipped through more than half of the magazine.

Shen Jianian raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then walked around to the other side and got on the bed.

Feeling the mattress beside him sagging slightly, Fu Jichen closed the magazine and threw it on the bedside table. He turned off the dazzling ceiling lamp and turned on a wall lamp.

Shen Jianian had a premonition, and when his arm touched her waist, the premonition was confirmed.

Fu Jichen didn't say a word. He pulled off her pajamas and went straight to the topic, tossing her over and over again. Until she was so exhausted that her mind collapsed, he leaned into her ear and asked, "You really don't want to go back to Beicheng with me?"

Shen Jia Nian's mind was confused, but not to the point of losing his mind: "I don't want to."

"Give me a reason."

When Fu Jichen was speaking, his thin lips almost touched the skin behind her ears and neck, making Shen Jia Nian's breath unstable and unable to speak normally.

After a while, Shen Jia Nian barely gathered enough energy to speak and gasped: "Going back to Beicheng will remind me of my dead parents. Is this reason... enough?"

She knew that she could not stay here for the rest of her life without returning to Beicheng. She wanted to take back the Lingyue Group and would go back one day, but not now.

Now she just wants to stay away from that sad place.

She is not that strong, and she cannot dare to revisit her old place after just a few months.

Fu Jichen paused and agreed not to force it, but he couldn't help but put pressure on her: "If I want you to come back, will you agree?"

Shen Jia Nian opened his eyes and looked at his face in the dim light. His handsome face showed no emotion or anger, and he didn't know if it was a joke or serious.She looked away and said calmly: "It's boring to always force others to make things difficult."

"I just think it's interesting." Fu Jichen said with a half-smile.

Shen Jia Nian's breathing was stagnant. Is he serious?
When she was debating whether to compromise or to express firmly that she really didn't want to go, Fu Jichen's hand on her lower back moved a little, and gave in first: "Forget it, I'm afraid you'll bite someone in anger."

Shen Jianian was stunned for a moment, then became angry and said, "When did I bite someone?"

"Have you never been bitten?" Fu Jichen took out a hand from the quilt and pointed the tiger's mouth at her lips, "Can you remember it now?"

Shen Jia Nian thought about it, and suddenly lost his confident look, like a deflated rubber ball.

Fu Jichen curled his lips, turned over and pressed the person under him: "I originally wanted to say that since I can't remember, I will help you recall. It seems that your memory is not that bad."

Shen Jianian had a thin layer of sweat on her body and felt very uncomfortable. She wanted to go to the bathroom to take a shower, but she resisted his teasing move with her hands.

"Just once." Fu Jichen poured the ecstasy soup into her ear while kissing her, "Just think of it as an advance."

He will be back in Beicheng for at least a week this time. If things go well, he may not return to Yicheng again.

What should I do? I can't bear to leave her in Yicheng.

On the morning of the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, Fu Jichen set off for the airport.

Shen Jia Nian went with the car to see him off at Fu Jichen's request.Originally she had to work all day today, but he was the boss and giving her a day off was just a matter of words.

After watching Fu Jichen pass the security check, Shen Jia Nian turned back the same way, thinking about spending the next seven days of vacation alone. No, plus today should be eight days, how relaxing and comfortable it would be.

Qu Mo was waiting outside the airport. This time he would not follow Fu Jichen back to Beicheng, but would stay in Yicheng for her dispatch.

She got in the car and Qu Mo asked her where she was going.

Shen Jia Nian looked out the car window. The sky was high and the clouds were wide, and the winter was cold and cold. It seemed that she had no other place to go. She said lightly: "Go back to Rose Manor." Qu Mo started the car and drove on the busy road.

Shen Jianian tilted her head to admire the scenery along the road. However, the closer she got to Rose Manor, the lower her mood became. The relaxed and comfortable feeling at the beginning disappeared unconsciously.

why?

Shen Jianian lowered her eyes and fell into deep thought, because New Year's Eve is a festival of reunions. Fu Jichen, who is as indifferent as she is, has to rush back to Beicheng to reunite with her family, but she spends it in a place that does not belong to her at all.Or maybe it's because Rose Manor is so big that it suddenly seems so empty and lonely without one person.

As the car drove into the fence gate of Rose Manor, Shen Jianian suddenly heard a barking dog and looked out through the car window. Laifu jumped out of nowhere. He recognized the car, wagged his tail, and ran after it.

This was the first time Shen Jianian saw it wagging its tail. She was a little excited and said to Qu Mo, "Stop the car."

Qu Mo stopped the car as he said, and saw Shen Jianian pushing open the door and waving to the black dog outside the car: "Laifu, come up."

Laifu saw Shen Jianian's tail wagging even more happily, and as if he understood what she said, he raised his forelimbs and jumped forward, jumping into the car.

Shen Jia Nian closed the car door and tentatively touched the dog's head. Seeing that it had no stress reaction, he carried it to the seat and talked to it while petting the dog: "It's not in vain for me to follow you and feed you every day. Finally he let me touch him."

Qu Mo's eyebrows twitched when he saw it, and he silently made a note in his mind. He had to drive the car to the shop and clean it from the inside out before the boss came back.

If the boss finds a piece of dog hair, he will be the one who can't bear it, not Shen Jianian.

At 01:30 in the afternoon, the plane landed at Beicheng Airport. The Fu family's driver came to the airport early to wait. After picking up the person, he went to Fu's house.

They hadn't seen each other for some time, so the driver calmly looked at the young man in the back seat with his eyes closed and concentrating.

He is as dignified and indifferent as ever, giving off a feeling of alienation when he doesn't speak. He was personally taught by the old man since he was a child, and he has a calm demeanor that other young men in the family don't have.I don't know when I fell in love with playing with jade, and I was holding a fine white jade handle in my palm.

Silently all the way, the car drove into Fu's house with its winding paths.

"We're here." The driver reminded politely and gently, got out of the car and opened the back seat door.

Fu Jichen lazily opened his eyelids, his eyes not showing the slightest trace of tiredness. He straightened the hem of his coat in a graceful manner and lifted his legs to get out of the car.

The front door was opened from the inside, and the woman wearing a gray cashmere shawl quickly walked down the steps and came to Fu Jichen. She looked up at her son, who was a head taller than herself, with tears in her eyes: "I'm back now. "

As she spoke, she stroked Fu Jichen's arm and looked carefully, trying to see whether he had lost weight or gained weight, whether he had become darker or whiter.

Fu Jichen was a little uncomfortable and stepped aside slightly. There was a suppressed emotion in his deep eyes that others could not understand. He said softly: "It's cold outside. Let's go inside and talk."

"Look at me, I'm happy to see you patronizing me."

Wei Ronghua sniffed to hold back her tears, and wanted to hold her son's arm and go in together, but he avoided him again. She paused, followed his footsteps, and sighed silently.

He is still the same.

I don't know since when, no matter how good she was to her eldest son, his attitude towards her was always indifferent, not as close as an ordinary mother and son.She didn't ask him to talk to her about anything, but he didn't even say a thoughtful word to her, a mother.His temperament is completely opposite to that of his younger son.

Fu Jichen didn't know what his mother was thinking. After entering the door, before he could change his shoes, a figure rushed towards him like a rocket.

"elder brother!"

Fu Yuling opened her arms and gave him a big hug. She stood on tiptoes and wanted to give him another warm kiss. However, he held his arms and pulled him away. He scolded him in a dark voice: "Stand still! What are you doing?" Look!"

Wei Ronghua, who came in behind, looked at the brother and sister getting along with each other, showing a dumbfounded expression, and his heart suddenly became more balanced.

The eldest son is probably not dissatisfied with her as a mother. He treats everyone the same, neither cold nor hot.Maybe it’s because of my personality that I don’t like to be close to others as I get older.
