"You want to go out to work?" Mo Zhengyan asked back.

"Yes." Chu Qiao replied calmly, and finally swallowed the candied fruit.

"Are you here to inform me?" Mo Zhengyan stared, locking her figure tightly in his eyes.

His sharp gaze made Chu Qiao feel a little nervous, she thought for a while and said, "No, I'm here to discuss with you."

"Chu Qiao, you are lying." Mo Zhengyan categorically denied her statement.

Mo Zhengyan didn't miss her words, "You said that you want to go out to work, not that you want to go out to work."

It's just a word alone, but the meaning is very different.

"If you mean yes, then it proves that you are still considering it, and now you are here to discuss with me. You may go, or you may not go under my suggestion. But now, what you said is yes." Mo Zhengyan calmly analyzed, made a few short sentences, made a statement for himself, and broke her lie.

Asking for this word has already proved her determination and attitude.

Mo Zhengyan's sharpness made Chu Qiao invisible, and Chu Qiao seemed to be unable to justify herself. It seemed that from the very beginning, in front of him, she had already been defeated.

"I really want to go out to work." Almost powerlessly, Chu Qiao lowered her head and said softly.

click-

The sound of a lighter.

Mo Zhengyan took out the cigarette case, smoked one, and said quietly, "What if I don't let you go."

If he won't let her go.

It's not that Chu Qiao didn't think about this possibility. Tao Sitian also asked her the same way that day in the flower garden in the suburbs. If he disagreed, what should she do.Chu Qiao didn't answer at that time, and couldn't answer.However, at this moment, Mo Zhengyan was sitting beside her, so close.The smell of smoke from his fingertips wafted away, filling her nostrils, and there was an inexplicable sense of oppression.

Chu Qiao said, "Then I won't go."

She answered so briskly and indifferently that Mo Zhengyan narrowed his eyes slightly.Breathing out a puff of smoke, he said in a deep voice, "Chu Qiao, look at me and answer again."

Chu Qiao really raised her head, looked into his eyes, and said completely, "If you don't let me go, I won't go."

"You listen to me that much?" Mo Zhengyan asked with a smile.

Chu Qiao replied without thinking, "Of course, I'll listen to you."

Chu Qiao did not forget what Mo Zhengyan said to her that day when she asked for marriage.

He said: Chu Qiao, from now on, you have to listen to me.

Chu Qiao was almost blind, even more helpless, like a drowning person, and finally found a piece of driftwood. She had no choice but to nod her head in agreement.

Chu Qiao, from now on, you have to listen to him.

Mo Zhengyan also thought of that year, and he did not forget what he said at that time.

At that time, Chu Qiao sat in front of him respectfully, even cautiously, and she nodded in agreement like this.

At this moment, he looked at Chu Qiao five years later, her facial features had grown wider than before, her hair was parted in the middle, and two waterfalls scattered from the center of her forehead, long and densely black.It was in stark contrast to her fair complexion.Chu Qiao's skin was an unhealthy white, closer to pale, as if she hadn't seen the sun for a long time.

She breathed quietly, such a fragile woman made Mo Zhengyan feel soft in his heart.

"You really want to go out to work?" Mo Zhengyan spoke again.

"I think." Chu Qiao's answer was very concise and straightforward, and she was also very sure.

"Then go, I agree." Mo Zhengyan said quietly.

Chu Qiao was a little taken aback, she didn't expect him to have such a sudden change.Obviously one second ago, she seemed to be against it, but the next second she agreed, which made Chu Qiao unexpected.However, a bit of joy and joy appeared in her heart immediately, she smiled faintly, and blurted out words of thanks, "Thank you."

A thank you is polite, courteous, and unfamiliar.

Ordinary people say thank you only when they meet, but they are not like that.

"Chu Qiao, I am your husband." Mo Zhengyan was dissatisfied and declared his identity.

"I know." Chu Qiao replied softly.

She has always known.

She is his wife and he is her husband.

"You just said, you listen to me."

"En?" Chu Qiao was slightly confused, she could hear the deep meaning in his tone, it seemed that there was more to come.

Mo Zhengyan took a puff of cigarette and said casually, "Then take off your clothes."

Chu Qiao's pupils visibly shrank when she heard these words, and she felt embarrassed by his words as if they were giving orders.

Mo Zhengyan was smoking a cigarette, and did not make any noise.Just watch her and see how she reacts next.

Chu Qiao, will you follow suit, or not?

At this moment, the chair made a slight sound of being dragged back, and Chu Qiao stood up from the chair.Her expression was calm, unchanged from before.However, she moved very slowly. She untied the thick nightgown that was covered outside, pulled the belt, loosened the nightgown, and put it aside.

Mo Zhengyan was silent, he didn't seem to think that she would really do it, but at this moment, he wanted to know where her bottom line was.

So, Mo Zhengyan didn't call to stop.

Chu Qiao wore a silver-pink silk pajamas underneath. Under the pajamas, there was only close-fitting underwear.

Chu Qiao reached for her collar, she paused for a moment, then tore off the collar of her pajamas.The pajamas were pulled away, and her naked body in underwear appeared in Mo Zhengyan's eyes.

The smoking motion was still, and at this moment, Mo Zhengyan saw not only her delicate skin, but also the mottled and ugly red marks on this white skin.

That was the trace he left just now.

Mo Zhengyan frowned.

Chu Qiao's face turned pale, she pursed her lips and was about to take off her silk pajamas, but Mo Zhengyan yelled, "Enough."

When he shouted, Chu Qiao stopped.

Mo Zhengyan said, "Put on your clothes."

Chu Qiao calmly buttoned up the pajamas.

But Mo Zhengyan noticed that Chu Qiao's hands were shaking, and she had to button that button three times before it could be fastened.

"Do you have a direction for your work?"

"not yet."

"Wait until you don't need to drink any more medicine, then go out and look for a job."

"it is good."

The two were talking calmly, as if everything just now had never happened.

Afterwards, Xu Shan came in and reported, "Miss, dinner is ready. Sir, you have a banquet to attend tonight, and it's almost time."

Mo Zhengyan nodded, looked sideways at Chu Qiao and said, "I can't stay with you for dinner."

"It's okay, work is important." Chu Qiao's answer was undoubtedly what a good wife should have.

Mo Zhengyan glanced at her, got up without haste, "Then I'm leaving, you can eat by yourself."

Chu Qiao also got up and looked at his leaving figure.

Mo Zhengyan walked a few steps, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Why do you still keep that desk lamp?"

Xu Shan was suspicious, what happened to this desk lamp?

Obviously fine.

Chu Qiao's eyes moved away from Mo Zhengyan, and focused on the desk lamp, and then quickly returned to him, she said softly, "That's your birthday present for me."

◎◎◎

The car left the mansion and drove out of Jingyuan. Mo Zhengyan was sitting in the car, looking straight ahead, but without focus.

Mo Zhengyan did not forget that it was his first birthday present to Chu Qiao.

An antique brass lamp.

At the auction in Italy, Mo Zhengyan bought this table lamp at a sky-high price.

I heard that this lamp was a gift from an Italian Renaissance knight to his beloved woman.The table lamp is inlaid with sea-blue gemstones, like a lover's tears.The knight is about to fight on the battlefield, leaving behind his beloved woman.The knight was also afraid that the woman would be lonely, so he gave a bright lamp to let the woman be himself, and accompany him every night.

That year, Chu Qiao married him.

It turned out to be five years.

so long.

The young and childish Chu Qiao back then, the girl who nodded to him and agreed to marry him back then, turned out to have been by his side for five years.

Before Mo Zhengyan came back to his senses, he realized that she had grown up.

Today, Chu Qiao is 23 years old.

The time Mo Zhengyan spends with her is pitifully infrequent, the number of times that even one hand is not satisfied.

Now, she is going out of the quiet garden.

However, Mo Zhengyan realized that he had never gotten to know her well before.
