This is the first time that he rolled over in front of Qi Jinran?

After hanging up the phone, Wen Yuan smirked and greeted Qi Jinran.

"What a coincidence, you come to exercise too."

Adhering to the principle of "as long as I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed", he calmly walked to a treadmill and started stretching.

Looking out the window without squinting, only the slightly trembling hand holding the towel betrays Wen Yuan's nervousness.

Qi Jinran, who was wearing loose sportswear, came over.

Hearing the man's footsteps getting closer, Wen Yuan's heart thumped, and his cheeks burned in embarrassment. This guy wouldn't want to ridicule him again, would he?

Wen Yuan stuck his neck stiffly, ready to be trained by the man, but he didn't expect Qi Jinran to walk in front of him, but just said, "This treadmill is broken, you can replace it with another one."

He looked indifferent, and after speaking, he turned and went to the lounge next door.

Wen Yuan: Oh good.

A huge sigh of relief.

Switching to another treadmill, Wen Yuan stretched, looking at the direction of the lounge, thoughtful.

Could it be that the pot of Borscht soup he cooked in the afternoon conquered Qi Jinran's stomach and made men embarrassed to scold him?

Wen Yuan, you can!

Wen Yuan, who had been mourned for a day, regained his confidence in his heart!

in the lounge.

As soon as Qi Jinran came out of the shower, she received a call from Yu Heng, a bad friend.

The other party's tone was as rude as ever.

"I just came back to China, and I heard that you are going to marry? Which family's little sweet wife—no, little sweet husband?"

Qi Jinran recalled the tall and straight figure of Wen Yuan and Xiao Jiaofu, and snorted softly.

Listening to his disgusting tone, Yu Heng raised his brows slightly.

"Why, the other party is not your food?"

"It's stupid." Qi Jinran commented expressionlessly.

"But I heard that it was your grandfather who picked it out for you. It's been so many years, except...cough cough" seems to have mentioned someone who shouldn't be mentioned, Yu Heng coughed stiffly, and said vaguely, "You Grandpa doesn't seem to be satisfied with anyone, doesn't he? Let alone help you choose."

Qi Jinran frowned slightly: "You're not busy with the company, why do you care about my marriage partner?"

"Then I can't care about it, how many years have we been an old classmate, I can't take care of you?"

Qi Jinran snorted softly, and was about to say something when there was a knock on the door outside.

"That... Mr. Qi, can I come in?"

Yu Heng, whose ears were sharper than anyone else, naturally heard the voice from the other end of the phone.

"Yo, who is this? Your little girl moved in?"

Qi Jinran didn't deny it, but there was a hint of impatience between her brows.

"You can't finish it. If you talk about it again, the contract between Qi's and Hengguang will not be renewed next year."

"Don't, don't, I'm joking. Then I won't disturb your husband's life, bye."

After hanging up the phone, Qi Jinran's forehead jumped with blue veins.

The knock on the door resounded.

Qi Jinran gritted her teeth: "Come in."

Wen Yuan, like a chipmunk, first came in with a furry head, and finally his whole body slid in from behind the door.

He had just finished running, his whole body was covered in sweat, his black hair was wet, and his gray short sleeves were also wet with sweat, which was tightly attached to his back, outlining a clear body curve.

The smell of unfamiliar male hormones mixed with the faint smell of sweat rushed towards Qi Jinran. He raised his head, and was about to have a seizure, but he stopped for a moment when he saw Wen Yuan's appearance.

He has never looked at Wen Yuan very carefully, because since the first time he saw Wen Yuan on the T University basketball court, the boy left a reckless and stupid impression in his mind, so he didn't even bother to pay attention to what he looked like. .

However, in the silent lounge now, with only the two of them alone, he had to start examining Wen Yuan's appearance. The facial features of the boys are indeed handsome and upright, no wonder what kind of management is the grass? As for body

Qi Jinran looked down and quickly glanced over Wen Yuan's short sleeves that were close to his body, as well as his two straight and long legs, looking a little uncomfortable.

This figure... just barely makes it work.

Wen Yuan saw Qi Jinran's critical eyes, thinking that he was disgusting himself with the smell of sweat, so he quickly covered his upper body with a towel, and said embarrassedly, "I'll take a shower right away."

It is too far to go back to the bedroom to wash. Wen Yuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to the lounge. He thought that Qi Jinran would leave when he entered, but he didn't expect that he started to undress, and Qi Jinran was still sitting on the sofa chair.

Wouldn't it be here to see him?

Wen Yuan, who took off his short sleeves, was too embarrassed to take it off again, went into the bathroom barefoot, and closed the door.

When he came out after washing, there was no one in the lounge. Wen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then went back to the bedroom.

the next day.

Wen Yuan followed Qi Jinran to the Qi family's old house for dinner.

Qi's old house is located in the outskirts of Wancheng, built on the hillside, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery.

Before getting off the bus, Qi Jinran suddenly warned Wen Yuan.

"Call me Jin Ran in the future, not Mr. Qi."

Wen Yuan immediately understood that they were going to act as a model husband in front of Grandpa Qi, and nodded quickly.

"Do you need to hold hands or something?"

When approaching the door, Wen Yuan asked with a smile.

Qi Jinran glanced at him, Wen Yuan laughed dryly: "Just kidding, don't take it seriously."

Qi Donghui in the living room saw the two walking in together, one was cold and the other was sunny and lively, with an inexplicably harmonious aura, and he was very satisfied.

The three sat together and chatted a bit about everyday things. Qi Donghui was kind and easy-going, and he didn't have the air of an elder. Wen Yuan quickly relaxed in front of him, and he could tell a few jokes in turn to make him happy.

"Jin Ran, go to the yard and water my pots of Clivia."

Halfway through, Qi Donghui branched off Qi Jinran and called Wen Yuan to the study alone.

Wen Yuan guessed that Qi Donghui had something important to tell him, so he approached the door nervously and sat down on the pear wood chair.

"Want to know what Jin Ran looked like before?" Qi Donghui said with a smile.

Wen Yuan was startled, and then his eyes lit up.

"miss."

Qi Donghui took out an old photo album and handed it to him.

In the photo album, when Qi Jinran was a few years old, the delicate-faced little boy posed various funny poses in the camera, and he was smiling in every photo.

Wen Yuan couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. He turned back and found a picture of Qi Jinran after the car accident. The boy had grown up a little, with a handsome and cold face. He sat in a wheelchair and looked out the window, his right trouser leg was empty and his face The smile on her disappeared completely.

Wen Yuan felt a pain in his chest.

He couldn't bear to look down, but looking at Qi Donghui's expectant gaze, he still turned it over. He thought that Qi Jinran would continue to be decadent after the car accident. Unexpectedly, in the album behind, the smiles on Qi Jinran's face gradually increased. up.

He put on a prosthesis and began to go to school normally, attend classes, and participate in various club activities. Photos of him and his friends began to appear in the album. They ran, climbed, skied, and rode together, and their young faces were full of vibrant smiles.

"I thought Jin Ran had completely come out of the shadow of the car accident. He was so good and worked so hard. The future life should be smooth sailing, but I didn't expect that something happened later... Let him change back to the way he used to be. ."

On the last page of the album, Qi Jinran was standing in front of the Harvard Library with a bouquet of flowers in hand and wearing a master's suit. He looked at the camera, his dazzling black eyes were full of smiles, and his flawless face had no haze. The gloomy and cold look is like two people.

In the intervening years, what happened to make him what he is now?

Wen Yuan looked at Qi Donghui's weathered face and lonely eyes, and couldn't bear to ask.

No matter what happened, it was Qi Jinran's scar, and he didn't want to open it again.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will accompany Jin Ran well."

At least this year, he will do his best to make Qi Jinran happy.

"Just, I have a small question, why did you choose me?"

This is what Wen Yuan has been puzzling over. Even if the two families have had friendship, the economic gap between their family and the Qi family is too great. Even in the upper class, the Qi family is the pinnacle of a pyramid. If you want to give Qi Jinran Looking for a marriage partner, there should be a lot better than him, right?

When Qi Donghui heard his words, he smiled slightly.

"The first time I saw you, I remembered someone."

"It's Jin Ran's mother. You have an air about you, very similar to her."

Qi Donghui seemed to recall something, and a melancholy and nostalgic smile appeared on the old face.

"Back then, Jin Ran's father and mother were also married because of their marriage. At the beginning, the young couple didn't like each other. Well, honey is made with oil. But no one thought that happy days would be so short..."

Wen Yuan felt a little heavy when he came out of the study. He walked to the garden and saw Qi Jinran pruning the potted plants, so he couldn't help but lean over.

"Do you need help?"

Qi Jinran looked indifferent and did not lift his eyelids.

"Need not."

Wen Yuan was used to being rejected by him, so he didn't leave, but stood there and watched him move.

Qi Jinran was stared at by his gaze, and finally couldn't help turning around and laughed sarcastically.

"Why, after hearing a story about my tragic past, I suddenly felt sympathy and felt that I could save me?"

Wen Yuan's face stiffened.

"I do not-"

"Listen carefully, I and you are not from the same world. It doesn't matter how I act with you outside. When it's just the two of us, the farther away you are from me, the better!"

No matter how big his heart was, Wen Yuan was hurt by Qi Jinran's words. He pursed his lips, couldn't say a word for a long time, finally said "um" and turned back to the room.

Qi Jinran looked at the back of the boy leaving, her black eyes flashed a little irritability, and threw the garden shears in her hand into the toolbox.
