Extra Chapter 31 Crying
at night.
With her wet hair, Xu Zhixi lay flat on her back, her beautiful eyes fixed on the domesticated tabby cat on the beam. Although her whole body felt weak, her mind was extremely active as if she was in an action movie, and she had no desire to sleep at all.
On the other hand, Chen Jianghe first lay sideways with his head resting on her legs, then turned his head and lay on his side. He didn't feel very comfortable, so he simply lay his whole body on Xu Zhixi.
"How can you sleep like this?"
"Are you going to sleep tonight?"
"Oh, you're so heavy, so heavy, and you deliberately poked me with your stubble. I'm going to beat you to death later."
"Okay, okay, I'll give you my hair. You can sleep on it."
Xu Zhixi really had no way to deal with Chen Jianghe. Faced with his "oppression and exploitation" and "nagging", she could only offer her thick hair, spread it on the pillowcase and let him rub and rub against it against his face.
For someone like Chen Jianghe who has had a special obsession with girls' hair since childhood, it is so comfortable to hold Xu Zhixi's long hair which is of excellent quality, black and shiny, fragrant, soft and smooth.
Xu Zhixi couldn't help but stretched out her hand to pinch his face, and asked seriously with a smile on her face: "Chen Jianghe, why are you like a fool?"
Chen Jianghe smiled but said nothing. After a while he said, "I'm sleepy."
Xu Zhixi stretched her hand over the quilt, touched his paw twice, and smiled gently: "Go to sleep if you are sleepy. Good night, classmate Chen Jianghe."
Chen Jianghe said: "It's boring to sleep alone, hold me and sleep."
"Ah?" Xu Zhixi was surprised while carefully gathering her hair and turning around to hug him, and asked softly: "Are you a baby? Do you still need someone to hold you when you sleep?"
Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "A baby who is one year and over two hundred months old."
"Bah! How shameless!" Xu Zhixi said coquettishly, and then said, "Go to bed quickly. If you don't go to bed now, it will be dawn outside."
"I won't sleep when it gets light. I'll get up for morning exercises." Chen Jianghe was very excited.
"Are you still doing morning exercises?" Xu Zhixi held him down in panic, "You're not going to do any more exercises, are you? Have a good sleep."
"Oh." Chen Jianghe calmed down, closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing. In the blink of an eye, he fell asleep with a snoring sound.
"Falling asleep in seconds?" Xu Zhixi smiled inwardly as she listened to his light snoring. She arched her body and looked at him quietly in the dim light from the window. Finally, she couldn't help but reach out and touch his brow: "When he's awake, he's a bad guy. Only when he's asleep, he's handsome and honest."
The next morning, the goddess of dawn took a break in the arms of the clouds and only showed her face quietly at around nine o'clock. Light golden sunlight sprinkled down from the horizon, dispelling the light mist covering the mountains and fields, and shining through the green walls and black tiles, illuminating the curling smoke rising from the farmyard.
"Morning, auntie."
When Chen Jianghe got up and washed up, his aunt Zheng Jiaxin was already sitting there eating breakfast.
"Morning, brat."
"How did you sleep last night?" Chen Jianghe asked with concern.
Zheng Jiaxin nodded and smiled: "It's fine. I'll sleep comfortably until dawn."
As she spoke, she picked up a few vermicelli noodles from the bowl and brought them to Chen Jianghe's mouth like a mother: "Jiangxi rice noodles are delicious, you should try them."
Although Chen Jianghe was usually very close to his aunt, he still maintained a sense of boundaries. He looked down at the chili powder in her bowl and the chili oil on the soup, and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it spicy?"
Cheng Ka-Hsin said nonchalantly: "It's OK. I just follow the local customs. I thought the rice noodles here were not as good as the rice noodles in Dongguan, but after a few mouthfuls of noodles and a sip of soup, I fell in love with it."
"very nice."
Chen Jianghe grinned. He was worried that his aunt wouldn't be able to eat well or sleep well in Wuyuan, but it turned out that she adapted faster and better than him: "You eat slowly. I'm not hungry. I'll eat later."
"Oh." Zheng Jiaxin said softly, lowered her head to eat noodles, and didn't bother to pay attention to him.
At this time, Xu Zhijun came out of the kitchen with a large bowl of noodles. She came to Chen Jianghe and said to him with a smile, "Brother-in-law, you eat this bowl."
Chen Jianghe was stunned for a moment, and then he lowered his voice and asked his sister-in-law, "Mom, are you cooking for me?"
"I did."
Xu Zhijun coughed lightly and said, "I haven't cooked for more than half a year. I don't know if it tastes good. Please give me some face and be my guinea pig."
“It looks delicious, and it smells good.”
Chen Jianghe was indeed very considerate: "It's just that the portion is a bit large. I'll bring it into the room and eat with your sister."
"Hmm~" Xu Zhijun smiled faintly, turned around and ran to the kitchen to continue helping.
"Jiang He, you are really good at hiding."
After breakfast, Xu Zhixi's uncle, Huang Yuzhang, secretary of the Youth League Committee of Guangdong University of Finance, who had just returned from visiting relatives and friends outside the province, came to Xu's house to meet Chen Jianghe.
"I didn't hear anything about it, but you sneaked into the village and did everything. You're such a thief."
Huang Yuzhang said this but his face was full of joy. This kid Chen Jianghe was a treasure. Secretary Huang felt proud just thinking about the fact that he and his niece were getting married. Whether he could make further progress in the future, or even rise to a high position, all depended on this relationship.
As soon as Huang Yuzhang finished speaking, Xu Zhixi helped Chen Jianghe explain: "Uncle, you misunderstood him. He didn't sneak into the village. He carried a basket and made a big fuss, for fear that people wouldn't know."
"Haha." Huang Yuzhang laughed, with an admiring look in his eyes, and then took out a thick red envelope: "Proposing a marriage should be lively. Although I am late, I have already prepared the red envelope for you."
"I'm in a good mood today. Come and have a few drinks with me at noon." Huang Yuzhang said to Chen Jianghe.
Chen Jianghe said, "I'm afraid it won't work at noon today. When we get back to school, Zhixi and I will treat you and your aunt to a meal alone. Do you think it's okay?"
Huang Yuzhang nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, we are a family and we should keep our distance. When it comes to dinner, just say hello. You don't need to treat me. Don't say "yours" or "yours". It seems strange."
Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, uncle."
"Oh, that's right."
Huang Yuzhang patted Chen Jianghe on the shoulder and smiled with satisfaction.
Today is the seventh day of the first lunar month. Xu Zhixi had booked tickets from Nanchang to Guangzhou for herself and her sister in advance, but Chen Jianghe came all the way to propose marriage yesterday, disrupting her plans.
However, Jianghe Group will officially start operations tomorrow, and President Chen will definitely have to go back to show up, so after having lunch with her family, Xu Zhixi took her sister out with her luggage and took Chen Jianghe's car back to eastern Guangdong.
Xu Wenlan, who seldom saw his daughter off before, today walked her from the doorstep to the town entrance until the car in front of him was completely out of sight. Only then did he reluctantly leave, feeling as if a piece of meat was missing in his heart. He turned back and went home with an empty feeling. When he reached the door, he could not help but look back into the distance, sniffed, his eyes turned red, tears glistened in his eyes, and he cried.
