The two of them were so busy that they had to work together.

"Hey! How can you be like this? You brought me here to eat without saying a word. Don't forget, we just agreed on the way that we should get along as a couple when we appear in public in the future." Looking at Xia Tian who was sitting opposite and eating noodles without saying a word, Qiu Mengyun complained dissatisfiedly.

Xia Tian swallowed the food in his mouth slowly and then replied indifferently: "Don't talk when eating and don't talk when sleeping. You don't know this, do you?"

"Humph! But have you ever seen a couple go out to eat together and not say a word and just eat? With you, others can see at a glance that we are not a couple. How can we hide it from my parents?"

"Oh? Then what do you think it should be like for a real couple to eat together?" Xia Tian asked back.

Qiu Mengyun thought for a moment and said uncertainly: "Since we are a couple, we should pick up food for each other when eating. I see those young couples in love feed each other. You don't know this, do you?"

Hearing Qiu Mengyun's words, Xia Tian glanced at her and then looked down at the bowl of noodles in front of him. With a strange look on her face, she said, "Don't you understand the situation? We are not eating Western food, not even stir-fried dishes. We are eating braised noodles. Tell me, how can I pick up food for you and feed you? Do you want me to pick out the coriander in my bowl for you to eat? Or do you want me to stand up and pick up a long braised noodle and send it to your mouth across the distance of a table?"

"Of course, if you don't care about others looking at you as a fool, then I don't mind feeding you."

After Xia Tian said this, Qiu Mengyun remembered that this guy brought her to a braised noodle restaurant, and it was really not suitable to feed each other to show affection. But she still said stubbornly, "Even if you can't feed me, you can eat a bowl of noodles with me, so that we can show our close relationship!"

She didn't really want Xia Tian to feed her, but after the previous exposure of their relationship. She found it quite fun to see Xia Tian being humiliated. Seeing him so angry and helpless, she felt indescribably comfortable in her heart. Therefore, when Xia Tian ignored her, she would think of ways to make that guy unhappy.

Xia Tian refused her proposal without a second thought: "Let's share a bowl of noodles. I can only eat one bowl by myself and barely feel 70% full. If I eat with you, I will be even less full."

"You... hum! You are really unromantic. No wonder you were dumped before." Seeing Xia Tian's stubborn look, Qiu Mengyun said angrily.

"I'll tell you again, I was the one who proposed the breakup before, so I dumped her." Xia Tian responded lightly, and stopped looking at her and continued to eat noodles.

After dinner, Xia Tian drove Qiu Mengyun to the airport.

"Xia Tian, ​​what exactly is the gift your grandfather gave me? Is it your family heirloom? I see that your family seems to attach great importance to this thing. Is it very valuable?" Qiu Mengyun, who was sitting in the co-pilot, recalled the expressions of Xia's father and mother when Grandpa Xia gave her a gift before, and asked curiously.

Xia Tian nodded seriously: "Well, that thing is indeed a family heirloom of my family. As for what it is, you can see it yourself. It's hard to say whether it is valuable or not. In the eyes of those who know it, it is a priceless treasure, and in the eyes of those who don't, it is just an ordinary antique."

"Oh? I want to see what it is. It can be called a priceless treasure." Qiu Mengyun was interested in Xia Tian's words. She immediately took out the box that Grandpa Xia gave her from her bag and was about to open it to see.

"Tsk! I thought it was some extraordinary treasure, but it turned out to be a jade pendant! Although this jade pendant looks a bit old, it doesn't look like it is priceless!"

After opening the box, Qiu Mengyun saw what was inside the box clearly. It was a white jade pendant. Mountains and rivers were carved on the front of the jade pendant, and the sun, moon and stars were carved on the back. In the two symmetrical corners of the front top and back bottom of the jade pendant, the words sun and moon were carved respectively.

Listening to Qiu Mengyun's nonchalant tone, Xia Tian said, "Since you don't like it, why not return it to me? Anyway, you wanted to give it to me for safekeeping when you were in the hospital before."

"Hmph! Don't even think about it. This is a gift from Grandpa.

My gift. Since he gave it to me, this jade pendant is mine now. "Hearing that Xia Tian actually wanted to take away the gift he had just received, Qiu Mengyun quickly turned around and hid the jade pendant on the right side of his body.

"You think this jade pendant is ordinary, so why not give it back to me. I promise that when I make money, I will definitely buy you a more beautiful and precious ancient jade." Seeing Qiu Mengyun's refusal was very decisive, Xia Tian was still unwilling to give up and wanted to continue to fool him.

"Forget it! Don't forget that according to the agreement we signed, you have to hand over your future salary to me. In the future, you have to ask me for your pocket money. Where can you get the money to buy me better ancient jade? I'm not so stupid that I will be fooled by your random empty check." Qiu Mengyun rolled his eyes at him and said with disgust.

"Don't look down on me! Even if I hand over my salary to you, the money from my part-time job is enough to buy you a gift. How about we make a bet. If I can buy you a piece of precious jade without relying on my salary within a year, you will give me the jade in your hand. If I can't do it, I will unconditionally agree to your three requests. How about this bet, isn't it worthwhile? If I can afford a more precious jade, you can get a piece of jade with a higher value. If I fail, you can get the right to let me do three things for you, and you won't lose no matter what. "Xia Tian said with a smile.

"Well! It does sound very tempting, but I'm sorry I don't agree. "Qiu Mengyun didn't care about the bet proposed by Xia Tian at all, and rejected it directly. Although she couldn't figure out how Xia Tian, ​​a college student who had not yet graduated, could earn enough money in a year after handing over all his salary to her. But based on her understanding of Xia Tian, ​​this guy never does a business that loses money, so he is so anxious to take this ancient jade back, there must be something behind it. This ancient jade must not be as simple as she saw. Although she is not short of money and doesn't care how high the value of this jade pendant is, as long as she can see that Xia Tian is unhappy, she will be very happy, and this alone is enough.

Xia Tian complained depressedly: "Didn't you say that this jade pendant is very ordinary? Wouldn't it be better if I make money to buy you a more precious one?"

Qiu Mengyun shook her head: "No, this is a gift from Grandpa Xia. I promised him that I would keep it well. It has nothing to do with how much this jade pendant is worth. "

"Then why don't you dare to bet with me? The conditions I proposed are obviously impossible to complete. Are you still afraid of losing to me after all this? " Seeing that bribery didn't work, Xia Tian changed to provocation.

However, Qiu Mengyun didn't buy it at all. She smiled and said, "I'm sorry, as a public figure, I must set an example and stay away from pornography, gambling and drugs!"

Seeing that this girl was not moved by soft or hard words, Xia Tian said helplessly, "Okay! Since you don't want to give it to me, you can keep it first, but you must promise me that you must never give it to others."

Qiu Mengyun nodded very seriously and said, "Don't worry about this. This jade pendant can only be mine. I won't give it to anyone."

Seeing Qiu Mengyun agreed, Xia Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief. He continued, "There is one more thing I want to explain in advance. After I help you deal with your parents' urging for marriage, after our agreement expires, you must return this jade pendant to me. Otherwise, I can't explain to my family."

Hearing Xia Tian's words, Qiu Mengyun said with an unhappy face, "Humph! Is this how you make an agreement with others every time you date a girlfriend? When you broke up with that school beauty ex-girlfriend, did you get the jade pendant back in this way? "

"What nonsense are you talking about? This jade pendant has always been kept by my grandfather. Although I took Lin Wanqing to see my grandfather before, he never gave it to her. I don't know why the old man suddenly gave it to you this time." Xia Tian complained about his unreliable grandfather in frustration.

"Oh, so that's the case. It seems that Grandpa Xia has a better vision, much better than you." Listening to Xia Tian's complaints, Qiu Mengyun had a bright smile on her face.
