”An An is traveling and won’t be back until next week.”
”Miss Ji went alone?”
Ji Mingxuan twitched the corner of his mouth, raised his head and looked at Shen Mo, and said, “Do you think it’s possible?”
Shen Mo understood immediately: “Did she go with Zhou Yang?”
Ji Mingxuan nodded and said, “He left on the 12th.”
The 12th was the day it snowed.
Zhou Yang said that he wanted to meet him and waited for him at the place where they had their first date, but Shen Mo did not go. Zhou Yang could not wait for him, so he turned around and left with Ji Anan.
What would happen if he went?
Shen Mo looked at the bright sunlight outside the window and stopped himself from thinking about it any further.
Ji Mingxuan rested at home for two days before going to the company.
Shen Mo also went back to work and continued his idle life. His colleagues were still unfriendly to him, and there was no change day after day.
The only change is Ji Mingxuan.
In the past, he was busy with work and social activities, often coming home in the middle of the night, and not coming home all night was common. But during this period, he seemed to have become a different person, going to get off work on time every day, eating dinner at home, and sending the menu to Shen Mo’s phone every afternoon.
Even the driver, Lao Zhang, said: “Mr. Ji has finally settled down. He doesn’t have to drive out at night. I don’t know how much more relaxed he is.”
Shen Mo said: “Then you will be short of overtime pay, right?”
Lao Zhang was quite open-minded and said, “I would rather spend more time with my wife and children.”
Ji Mingxuan didn’t know why he was cultivating himself.
His personality was unpredictable, so Shen Mo didn’t dare to guess randomly. If he guessed wrong by accident, wouldn’t it be too embarrassing?
Originally, Shen Mo wanted to move back to his own room as soon as Ji Mingxuan recovered from his illness, but he never found a chance. Every day when it was time to go to bed, Ji Mingxuan would ask him to go back to his room, and no matter how close he got to the bed, when he woke up, he would always be hugged by Ji Mingxuan, sweating all over.
Shen Mo protested several times, but was always brushed aside by Ji Mingxuan.
After this week, Ji Anan finally came back.
She went to an island country in the Pacific Ocean, a famous resort. When she came back, her skin was slightly tanned, she was wearing a fashionable suit of the season, and her eyes were as gentle as the sea water.
As soon as Ji Anan entered the door, she took out the gift she bought for Shen Mo and said with a smile: “It’s a pity that something happened at Zhou Yang’s home and he had to rush back, otherwise I could have bought more.”
”That’s enough.” Shen Mo asked, “Is it fun over there?”
”Of course. The sea is so blue. We went out to sea in a small boat during the day and came back in the evening. At night, we walked hand in hand on the beach. The beach under the moonlight is more charming than during the day… I really want to stay there forever.”
Ji Mingxuan said: “But after going out, my heart has gone wild.”
Ji Anan turned around and hugged his arm, saying, “Thank you for giving me the plane ticket, brother. You can go with Brother Shen next time.”
Shen Mo looked up at Ji Mingxuan and asked, “Did Mr. Ji arrange for you to go on this trip?”
Their eyes met, and Ji Mingxuan said calmly, “It’s me.”
Ji Anan said: “I was really shocked when my brother took out the plane ticket that day. We were in such a tight time that we didn’t even have time to pack our things.”
“That’s what a surprise is.”
”But it was fun, and Zhou Yang…” Ji Anan blushed suddenly, stopped and looked at Ji Mingxuan, “Brother, I have something to tell you.”
Shen Mo was quite tactful and immediately said, “I’ll go prepare dinner.”
After saying that, he went into the kitchen, leaving the brother and sister to talk in the living room.
It was already time for dinner, and the aroma of food drifted in from the window. The ingredients were all ready, and Shen Mo took a few vegetables out of the refrigerator and washed them.
He thought of the day on the 12th when Zhou Yang asked him to meet at the old place. It was also the same day that Ji Mingxuan prepared a plane ticket for Ji Anan.
Is it just a coincidence?
What would have happened if he had gone to the appointment that day?
I might come back empty-handed again and have to wait alone in the snow until dark.
The water was too cold. Shen Mo’s hands trembled. The cold was piercing. He quickly turned off the water and heard Ji Mingxuan walk in from outside and asked him, “Do you need my help?”
Shen Mo said, “No, no, it will be ready soon. Is Miss Ji hungry?”
”No, she was too tired from playing, so she went back to her room to rest.”
Ji Mingxuan didn’t leave after he finished speaking, but just leaned against the door and watched Shen Mo busy. After washing the vegetables, Shen Mo peeled a few potatoes. While cutting the potatoes, he was thinking, should he make braised or curry?
Just when I was about to ask Ji Mingxuan, I heard Ji Mingxuan say, “An An just told me that Zhou Yang proposed to her.”
