Chapter 73 Are you paying attention to me?
"Where do you want to eat?"

he asked, looking at her.

Jian Chu was stunned: "Aren't you going home?"

Probably the word "go home" came out of her mouth to please the man. Her handsome face showed gentleness, and her deep eyes also carried a slight smile: "Didn't you say we would eat out together?"

Jian Chu was still immersed in the accident, but Qi Boyan had already stepped on the accelerator.

Then he asked again: "What do you want to eat?"

Jian Chu didn't show any pretense and thought about it seriously: "Let's go to Yinze Village."

Yinzezhuang's cuisine is relatively light, mainly Cantonese cuisine. Qi Boyan doesn't like eating heavy flavors, and she is also currently sensitive to heavy flavors, so both are suitable.

They have been married for a year, but this is the first time they have eaten alone outside.

During this year, she wanted to have a meal with him alone, but she didn't want to make these requests to him because she was afraid of being rejected, and she was even more afraid of making him unhappy because of her clinginess.

During the meal, both of them stayed quiet. Qi Boyan also ate quietly at home most of the time, so it has become a habit.

Just when she was thinking about why he would take her out for dinner alone tonight, the man's low and hoarse voice sounded: "Why don't you talk?"

Jian Chu raised her head and met his dark eyes. She said in a low voice, "Don't you like to be quiet when you eat?"

"Who said that?"

"That's how it is at home."

she explained.

Qi Baiyan curled his lips and smiled. He suddenly leaned forward and approached her. He said in a low voice, "Jian Chu, are you paying attention to me?"

Her eyelids trembled and she quickly looked away: "Bo Yan, we are husband and wife and have been together for a year. Isn't it difficult to understand you?"

In fact, she wanted to ask, had he never paid attention to her?
But the result will be disappointing, so forget it.

Qi Boyan did not answer her words, but simply said: "You are easily distracted, Jian Chu, what's wrong with you recently?"

She was stunned, but she didn't expect him to see it.

"It's okay, it's just that there may be a lot going on."

He didn't seem to believe it, and still stared at her, with a wrinkle between his eyebrows: "Has your relationship with the Jian family always been like this?"

Does he mean that the Jian family is not close to her?
Jian Chu pursed her lips, but did not avoid his gaze or question: "Are you cold?" She smiled casually: "Probably, after all, the only person who has the deepest influence on the Jian family is my grandfather."

Although she didn't grow up in Jian's family, Mr. Jian was very kind to her. He often went to her grandma's house to visit her and brought her many new gadgets every time.

Recalling the good times, a smile appeared on her lips.

Qi Boyan looked at her appearance and felt an indescribable emotion in his heart.

They slept together for a year, but it was at this moment that he truly realized that he had never really understood her.

What kind of person is Jian Chu?

The two returned to the Mid-Levels Mansion after dinner. Qi Boyan went to the study to handle some work, while Jian Chu returned to the bedroom.

It's Mr. Qi's birthday, and she wants to give him a gift.

The old man likes to collect some calligraphy and paintings, so she naturally wants to start from this aspect.

After finishing these tasks, she picked up her phone and looked at it. Chu Muhe had not contacted her yet.

Jian Chu took advantage of Qi Boyan not returning to his room and dialed Chu Muhe's cell phone again.

The call was quickly cut off, and a message came: "Is there anything wrong at Chuchu? It's not convenient for me to answer the phone right now."

"Why can't I contact you all day? Are you okay?" "It's okay. Don't worry about me."

Jian Chu wanted to say something more, but Qi Boyan opened the door and came in, so she didn't send any more messages to Chu Muhe.

Probably because of tonight's meal, the relationship between the two seemed to have eased.

In the next few days, the two of them went back to the old house almost every day to help prepare birthday parties. They were busy and dedicated, and the master was very emotional when they saw it.

Said to himself: "It will be better in a few months."

The old man suddenly said something that made everyone startled. Qi's mother asked: "Dad, what do you mean it will be better in a few months?"

Jian Chu froze.

The old man fooled casually: "I will feel better after my birthday."

"Dad, look at what you said, aren't you happy now?"

"I'm happy. I'm happy to see you all doing well."

The meaning in the old man's words was very suggestive, and Qi's father and Qi's mother subconsciously turned their eyes to Jian Chu and Qi Boyan.

At this time, the old man suddenly asked: "Bo Yan, Xiaochu, have you two decided whether to divorce?"

The two looked at each other and became silent in tacit agreement.

The old man added: "If you decide not to divorce, then I will use the birthday party to reveal Xiaochu's identity as a member of my Jian family."

Jian Chu pursed her lips lightly and said, "Grandpa, I don't want to make this identity public."

If Qi Boyan gets divorced in the future, she will bear the title of Qi Boyan's ex-wife for the rest of her life.

She doesn't want to.

She doesn't want more people to know her.

She is even less willing to spend money on marriage.

But Jian Chu's rejection became something else in Qi Boyan's eyes. He frowned and asked, "Why? Why don't you want to make it public?"

"Bo Yan, you want to divorce me. If we make it public, it won't be good for either of us. Even if we don't divorce for the time being, there's no need to make it public, right? After all, you don't love me at all, and it won't do you any good to make it public. Like Isn’t this great now?”

Qi Boyan sneered.

He asked: "Jian Chu, is it good for me or are you preparing a way out for yourself that can leave at any time?"

His Adam's apple rolled up, his thin lips pursed into a straight line, and his handsome profile showed his deep and undisguised displeasure.

Jian Chu opened his mouth and before he could speak, he looked at her deeply, then turned and went upstairs.

The atmosphere also became quieter.

Jian Chu pursed her lips and said nothing. Jian's mother quickly said to calm the atmosphere: "Xiao Chu, come and accompany me to see if the birthday cake prepared for grandpa is suitable?"

Only then did she smile slightly, and then let Jian's mother hold her hand and go to another place.

Because of this incident, Qi Boyan was not only unhappy, he also unilaterally chose to have a cold war with Jian Chu.

This continued until the old man’s birthday party.

The banquet was held in the independent banquet hall of the Qi family's old house. The Qi family has a high status in Beicheng, and Mr. Qi is a well-known senior in the entire business world. Celebrities from all walks of life came to support it.

The entire Qi family was filled with an atmosphere of joy, and every decoration was enough to show the nobleness of the owner. There was also the old man's favorite opera on the stage, and the leading opera masters in the circle came to congratulate him in person.

Today's birthday party is for everyone to have a meal together, chat, and make the old man happy. It will last from morning to evening. There will be a dance party for young people later. Before that, close family members will give gifts to the old man. On the gift.
