Snowy Night Kiss

Chapter 24 How do you know you are not
The old lady followed her movements and supported her chin, yawned and asked a child's question, "What now?"

"Now, you should go to bed."

The clock on the white wall ticked for a long time. Jian Yi yawned and walked out. Grandma Jian asked her where she was going.

Jian Yi turned around and smiled slyly, "Leaving home
go. "

Jian Yi suddenly had the idea of ​​going to the eastern suburbs.

There was no other reason, she seemed to miss the desolation of the western suburbs particularly on the days of family reunion.

If her physical body were to perish in this world, then the Eastern Suburbs would be the only place to house her boring soul.

When I was leaving the house, I remembered that all buses and subways in the city were suspended today. The businesses on the road had already closed down after the New Year and family reunion, so who has time to wander the streets?

Jian Yi felt a little tired after walking in the dark for a while. Her face was frozen stiff. She took out her cell phone from her pocket and began to hesitate.

A phone call was made, and every second was filled with anxiety. Jian Yi bit her lower lip, trying to pick out a word from her poor and cold emotions.

This was the first time she had expectations of someone.

The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up, but it seemed very quiet on the other end.

There was still one minute left until midnight, and her heart was beating fast. Jian Yi didn't have time to say hello, so she quickly said, "Happy New Year."

The person on the other end seemed to be amused by her faster tone, but that nonsensical voice, with a slightly rising tail note, was full of infinite tenderness.

"What else, Xiaoyi?"

In the distance, the night was dark and the wind took away all perceptible warmth, except for the beating of the heart and the heat in the ears.

As if possessed by some mysterious force, Jian Yi sincerely confessed to him, "I still want to see you."

The chuckle died down, and a light suddenly lit up at the entrance of the dark alley.

At the same time, Jin Yanchen's deep and magnetic voice came through the thin microphone -

He said, "Look up, Xiaoyi."

Jian Yi stared blankly at the scene in front of her... A straight, bright car light shone in front of her, under the same cold moonlight as that night. He stood lazily aside with a cigarette in between his legs, and glanced at her lightly with raised eyebrows, looking relaxed and at ease, smiling frivolously, with the snow falling between his brows, making him look so affectionate.

This time he walked towards her, his steps were steady and heavy. The scent of agarwood hit her face in an instant, which unexpectedly made her feel at ease.

If there really is such a thing as intoxication in this world, then Jin Yanchen is her calamity.

Jian Yi closed her eyes deeply, and all her sorrow and worries disappeared in an instant. She snuggled into his arms with peace of mind, and her words were filled with a coquettish tone that she herself didn't even hear.

"How did you come."

Jin Yanchen held her arm and said with a faint smile, "It's not that our little girl wants to see me."

At the moment when the tears fell, the clock struck midnight, the faint sound of firecrackers rang in my ears, and the New Year greetings rang out from every household.

There was a snowfall that soundlessly fell. Jian Yi quietly stood on tiptoe and kissed his forehead with the snow. She said to him in an almost hopeless tone, "I hope you can always be affectionate to me."

If she had to do something stupid in her life, she would rather it be Jin Yanchen.

There will never be another person in this world who can compare the prodigal son to someone so gentle that she can't stop wanting to let him go.

"Xiaoyi, why don't you call it Zhongqing?"

With a lingering tone, Jin Yanchen loosened the hand that was holding the cigarette, and put his slightly cool fingertips on her face. His eyes were ambiguous and tender, like a natural playboy.

Later, when getting in the car, Jian Yi noticed that the car seemed to have been parked at the entrance of the alley for a long time.

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant, and when she raised her head, her eyes happened to meet Jin Yanchen's.

He snorted and rubbed her head with his hand, "It's just what you think." Jian Yi blinked, she lowered her head and whispered, "Will it bother you too much? Isn't today New Year's Eve? Don't you have to accompany others?"

Jin Yanchen placed one hand on the steering wheel, and a piece of wrist carved from white jade fell down with his casual laugh, and a piece of thin cigarette between his knuckles shook out.

"How can I have anyone else?"

"Ok?"

Jin Yanchen raised his eyes and looked at her, "On New Year's Eve, didn't you drop me off and go home to celebrate the New Year?"

There was a hint of accusation in his words. Jian Yi's face turned red. She felt guilty for what she had thought was a sensible thing to do.

She pinched the corner of her clothes and said, "Isn't this the rule in their circle?"

Jin Yanchen asked her with a squinting look: "Which circle's rules are you talking about?"

This matter involves the meeting with Lin Qingruan. She did not hide her relationship with Lin Qingruan and said frankly that they were friends.

Jin Yanchen raised his chin slightly, recalling something, "The one next to Mo Yucheng?"

Jian Yi nodded. The calmness she tried so hard to maintain suddenly collapsed when the black date-like agarwood bead on Jin Yanchen's wrist pressed against her palm.

She recalled the many rumors she had heard these days. She rubbed a small agarwood bead in her palm, looking a little uneasy. "Do you think we are a gang?"

Jian Yi thought for a long time but couldn't think of a suitable word. Her self-esteem was higher than she thought. No matter what others thought of her, she was unwilling to be described as "gold-making" in front of him.

But the term "gang crime" is a bit funny.

Jin Yanchen couldn't help laughing: "What crime did you commit?"

He suddenly came closer, his breath sprayed in my ear, and said meaningfully, "To cheat you of your money or your sex, let's pick one, Xiaoyi?"

Jian Yi was so amused by him that she couldn't help herself.

She suddenly turned her head, held his face and kissed him, saying viciously, "Cheating is fine."

Jin Yanchen was still smiling, his chest vibrating. He tilted his head to admire her rare angry expression, and thought that young girls were more adorable when they were a little angry.

"Don't always listen to your friend's opinions. You two are on different paths."

The heater in the car was turned down, and Jin Yanchen reached out to loosen his tie. His face had a sharp outline but a pair of gentle and tolerant eyes.

When talking about Lin Qingruan's affairs, he had a more thorough and wiser perspective.

He said a few words: "Xiaoyi, the path of a person is a line that changes at any time. The occasional parallels and intersections are not eternal. We must always look forward."

The whole city was quiet, and the sound of light snow fell by my ears.

Jian Yi looked up at Jin Yanchen, her overly calm eyes staring at him quietly. The wordless silence, the obscurity and difficulty to understand, finally turned into the movement of her lips.

She asked, "Really?"

Jin Yanchen thought for a moment, then looked at her and smiled tenderly.

He said: "Not all, you know, there are always exceptions in this world."

Jian Yi's heartbeat slowed down.

Jin Yanchen passed her hands through and fastened her seat belt. Their breaths blended together as he leaned over her. His face, which was so close to her, inexplicably took on a gentle look. He whispered something in her ear that was so tender that it would last till death.

"How do you know you're not?"
