Snowy Night Kiss

Chapter 47 What’s so difficult about it? It’s because our little baby wants it.

It's only been three days, but the East Suburbs have changed so much.

The reception area in the front hall has been replaced with an artificial greenhouse. Walking through the transparent glass corridor, with ivy climbing on both sides of the wall, it feels like entering Alice's fantasy world.

Mo Yucheng had been here a few times. He originally brought people here to play, but the game tables and gambling plates disappeared completely. They all put their hands in their pockets and looked at each other in bewilderment at the colorful flowers.

"Yanchen, are you really addicted to growing flowers?" Mo Yucheng held a cigarette in his mouth and spoke with a double entendre.

He had been extremely busy these days, as the cooperation with the Liang family was further advanced. He had been on business trips for several days in a row, and when he came back exhausted, he wanted to have some fun. However, he never expected that the game venue had been cleaned out. When he first stepped in, he thought he had walked into the wrong room.

Taking out a cigarette box from his suit trouser pocket, Mo Yucheng shook out a cigarette for him, "Want one?"

"Don't dirty my flowers."

Jin Yanchen has not been a heavy smoker recently. The new flower seeds shipped from Belgium are carefully grown in a greenhouse, where the air is not flowing smoothly on all sides. He remembers that Jian Yi hates the smell of cigarettes the most.

"Come on, just enjoy your life. When the old man finds you a fiancée, you'll know how chaotic life will be."

Mo Yucheng didn't have much appreciation. He was a vulgar person who loved gambling and beautiful women. He couldn't learn these romantic methods.

Sometimes he felt that Jin Yanchen's style of doing things was really incomprehensible, and sometimes he wondered if it was because he didn't know how to be romantic that he couldn't get other people's true love?

But is there such a thing as sincerity?

Only those who treasure it feel it is valuable.

Jin Yanchen glanced at him and laughed casually. "No one will decide my marriage."

When Jian Yi came down the escalator from the second floor, she just happened to see Jin Yanchen's figure through the clear floor-to-ceiling window.

He was holding a handful of bird food and teasing the bird. The sapphire kingfisher lowered its head and pecked gently at his fingers, as if begging for food.

Jin Yanchen smiled slightly and gave them all away generously.

When the bird was full, he hooked his long finger, and the golden cage opened. The satisfied kingfisher spread its wings and flew high, not looking back with any reluctance.

Jian Yi asked: "Why did you let him go?"

"Spring is here, and it can live independently." Jin Yanchen wiped his hands with a handkerchief and carefully told her how he picked up this broken-winged baby bird on a cold winter night and how he took great pains to raise it through the winter.

He finally said: "I am just a passer-by in this winter."

Jian Yi felt uncomfortable hearing this. She stammered, "Why do I feel like this bird?"

It was the first snow of winter, and I happened to meet him when he was in the most miserable time.

Jin Yanchen laughed when he heard that. He stood in the distant sunlight, his eyes swept across her face, and said, "I can't bear to let you go."

Jian Yi deliberately asked him: "What if I must leave?"

Jin Yanchen raised his eyebrows: "Then I can't stop you."

Jian Yi snorted and didn't continue the topic. Jin Yanchen suddenly grabbed her wrist, gently pinched her base, and put something on it.

"You forgot it by the bed two days ago, and I thought you didn't want it anymore."

Jian Yi lowered her eyes and watched him put the bracelet on her wrist in silence. Her wrist was thin, and the bracelet hung loosely. The agarwood bead wrapped with a red string underneath seemed to have gravity and happened to be connected in parallel with the one on his wrist.

Jin Yanchen lowered his head and smiled, but didn't pull her hand. Instead, he took her hand.

Jian Yi also lowered her eyes along with him. She looked at their folded hands. The rippled silver bracelet was vivid in the sunlight. It seemed as if the two of them were destined to be entangled together and difficult to separate.

"I won't refuse it." Jian Yi looked up at him, "This is the first meaningful gift I have ever received."

Jin Yanchen looked up at her for a while: "As long as you like it."

Aunt Ling is the happiest person about the changes in Dongjiao. She said that the furnishings of this place have remained the same for many years, but now that a new owner has come, it has a new look.

Jian Yi grasped the key words and asked, "Who lived here before?"

"My wife lives here."

Aunt Ling smiled and said, "It's very quiet here. My wife was not in good spirits, so she stayed here for three or two years. Later--"

The conversation stopped here, and what happened next probably couldn't be told. Aunt Ling pushed a cup of hot tea to her and smiled to stop talking.

Jian Yi knew what to do and didn't ask any more questions. She turned to look for Jin Yanchen, followed his instructions, made a cup of black tea and brought it over.

"Why are you suddenly being so attentive?" Although he said that, Jin Yanchen still accepted the cup of tea with peace of mind. He was hiding here smoking, surrounded by smoke, but his eyes were clearly looking at her and smiling.

Jian Yi was slightly aroused by his smile. She walked over and reached out for the cigarette in his hand. She lowered her head and sniffed it. She didn't think there was anything addictive about it.

"I'll treat you to a drink." Jian Yi told him with a smile, "My resume to Taijing has been accepted, so I can start my internship during the holiday."

Jin Yanchen nodded, not thinking there was anything wrong. He asked, "Have you decided what to do next?"

The nature of businessmen may allow them to see many steps ahead before taking one step, but Jian Yi did not think so much. Like most ordinary college students in the city, she had aspirations for the future but was powerless, so she could only take one step at a time.

"I'll probably focus on my studies after this internship. I'm thinking about whether I should continue to take the postgraduate entrance exam."

Jian Yi lowered his gaze and said hesitantly, "I haven't thought about it yet."

There are too many uncertain choices at the crossroads of life, and ordinary people cannot afford to take a wrong step.

Jin Yanchen opened his arms towards her and motioned for her to sit over.

"It's okay, don't worry." He said in a light tone, no matter how big the problem was, it seemed like there was a way to deal with it when he talked about it. "Let Cheng Xuning take you with you when we get back to the company."

"Then my backdoor is so obvious." Jian Yi leaned over, frowning, not quite agreeing, "I'm just an intern, don't I have to be low-key?"

"How can this be considered a backdoor? Didn't you pass the written test and interview by yourself?" Jin Yanchen lazily reasoned with her, "You should use the existing resources if you can. Only when you can learn something is it real. What others say will not have much impact."

Jin Yanchen didn't know what he was thinking about, and suddenly he put his arm around her and tried to reach the storage cabinet next to them.

Jian Yi was startled and afraid of falling, so she subconsciously wrapped her two thin arms around his neck.

Jin Yanchen, however, acted mischievously and deliberately loosened his arm, leaning his head closer, while his other hand was groping in the cabinet behind.

"Still a coward?"

After getting what he wanted, Jin Yanchen reached out and lifted her hips up, just like he was holding a child. He even deliberately carried Jian Yi around the room twice more.

Jian Yi was so ashamed and angry that she could not bear it: "If you don't put me down, I...I will kick you."

Jin Yanchen snorted and chuckled, and his free hand just happened to hold her foot. The size was 36, just enough for him to hold.

"Where to kick?"

If he continued teasing her, she might really run away like the little kingfisher, so Jin Yanchen put her down and took out a doll from behind her like a magician.

It was a curly-haired pig that Jian Yi accidentally saw in a magazine booklet some time ago. She liked it at first sight, but when she wanted to buy it later, she was told that it was a hot-selling item that was out of stock on the entire Internet.

Jian Yi didn't feel any strong emotions at the time except for a little disappointment. There are so many things in this world that cannot be obtained, and there is no need to get every one of them.

Later, she didn't know when she told Jin Yanchen about it. He was leaning against the corridor smoking, looking for the photo of the doll she mentioned on his phone.

The main concept of this British brand is to comfort and accompany young babies.

Jin Yanchen laughed and leaned over, "What's so difficult about it? Who made our little baby want it?"
