Chapter 406
406 Get up early to prepare breakfast
Jiang che was in his pajamas. In the background was the sofa in the bamboo garden Study. He seemed to be holding a book in his hand.
after the video call was connected, it was pitch black. even jiang che, who had always kept his emotions hidden, was stunned for a moment. then, his eyes were filled with a smile.”miss shi, are you asleep?”
“yes.”
Her voice was a little muffled, and Jiang che could tell that something was wrong.
“miss shi, turn on the light. let me see you. I’ve missed you after not seeing you for a day.”
he was worried about her, but he didn’t show it. he only said it in a teasing tone.
“what day? it’s only been half a day.” As soon as Shi Yan finished speaking, the bedside lamp was turned on, and she sat up.
jiang che could see her clearly now.
From the outside, he really couldn’t tell, but he knew her well. Her eyes were slightly drooped at this time, and it was obvious that she was not in a good mood.
“What’s wrong with miss Shi? you don’t seem to be in a good mood. is it because you’re not used to not having me by your side?”
Usually, she would glare at him when he teased her like this, but she did not do so at this time.
her eyelids drooped, and she looked listless.
the smile in her eyes disappeared and she sat up straight.”what’s wrong, yanyan? what happened?”
“No, I just missed you a little.” shi yan said as she leaned against the bed and looked up at the camera.
when she looked at the camera, jiang che felt that she only had eyes for him. there was a faint sense of reliance in her eyes.
He said such words again.
to jiang che, it was a little fatal.
her heart softened, and it even hurt a little.
“Miss Shi, do you want me to go over and accompany you?” his voice was gentle, and his expression was warm, making him look extremely gentle.
shi yan was a little tempted, but she still shook her head.”No need,”
If she said there was no need, then there was no need. If she wanted him to go over, she would have said it directly. Jiang che did not insist.”Then, shall I talk to Miss Shi for a while?”
“yes.”
jiang che put down the book, turned off the light in the study, and returned to his room.
He was also sitting on the bed.
“After I left the SU family, did you and your mother go anywhere to play?”
I went to the forest Park and met Jiang Shasha, who I met in Qingcheng.
“What did she say that made you unhappy?” Jiang Che’s eyes darkened.
He had thought that Shi Yan’s current mood was because of Jiang Shasha.
“No.”
then let’s just ignore her. She can’t cause any big waves.
“you only went to the forest park?”
“We didn’t have much time. We walked around the forest Park for a while and then went to eat. It was almost eight o ‘clock when we returned to the SU family’s house. however, the scenery in the forest park is not bad. we can go there together next time.”
“alright,” he said.
“I went to talk to my aunt just now. When I came back, I saw my mom waiting in the living room. I thought of a lot of things in the past.”
Jiang che heaved a sigh of relief that she was willing to tell him.
It was good that she was willing to say it. He was just afraid that she would hide everything in her heart.
“They didn’t do anything wrong to me. On the contrary, I left the Shi family without hesitation despite their cries. I’m cold-blooded and selfish.”
” miss shi, ” jiang che disagreed. ” how can you say that about yourself? ”
“Aren’t you questioning my judgment of people by saying that about yourself?”
shi yan,”yingluo.”
I’ve lived for twenty-five years and you’re the only one I’ve taken a fancy to. You have to believe that you’re the best. In my eyes, you have no flaws at all.
“that’s because beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, you’re using your own filter on me.”
Although she knew that Jiang che had only praised her so blindly because he had his own filter, Shi Yan couldn’t help but smile when she heard him say this.
“Even if I bring my own filter, you’re the only one in the world who can make me bring my own filter. It’s enough to show your excellence. Miss Shi, although I’m not a good person, I won’t like a cold-blooded and selfish person. You have to understand this.”
“you like me, so i’m naturally good in your eyes.”
“Yes, I like you.”
“I don’t just like you. I like you so much that it’s not enough to express my feelings. Miss Shi, I love you very much.”
shi yan’s heart skipped a beat when she met his serious eyes.
It wasn’t the first time he said he loved her, so why was she still so disappointing?
“xuanji, mr. jiang, we’ve gone off topic.”
“Although the topic has gone off course, I’m speaking from my heart.” It was very useful.
Look at her now, the low and dejected mood just now was gone.
“Miss Shi, since you’re ready to sleep, let’s go to bed. We still have to get up early to go to school tomorrow. If you can’t fall asleep, don’t hang up. Put the phone by your pillow and we can talk like we usually do. I’ll hang up after you fall asleep.”
shi yan obediently lay down.
she put her phone down against the pillow and faced the camera.
jiang che also turned off the lights in his room, leaving only the bedside lamp on. he lay down and faced the camera as well.
I don’t think you have time to read today. I’ve read two books. Can I tell you the general content? ” Jiang Che’s voice was very soft.
Usually, they would hug each other and talk for a while before going to bed. Shi Yan would occasionally tell Jiang che the general content of an interesting book she had read. When Jiang che saw something good, he would also tell her.
With her hands on the side of her face and her head as a pillow, Shi Yan smiled and said,”Alright,” he said.
Shi Yan fell asleep before she could finish the book.
jiang che didn’t hang up immediately. his thumb caressed the phone screen and stopped at her sleeping face.
They had only been separated for half a day, and there was already a problem. How could he be at ease? as expected, miss shi was suitable to be by his side all the time.
jiang che only retracted his hand after staring at her sleeping face for a while.
However, he still did not hang up the video call.
He looked at her sleeping face and said softly, ” “good night, ms. shi.”
He didn’t turn off the bedside lamp, nor did he hang up the video call. He just closed his eyes.
it was a dreamless night.
at dawn the next day, shi yan got up before six o ‘clock.
it was only 6:30 am when she washed up and went downstairs. he thought su wan hadn’t woken up yet, but when he went downstairs, he saw her busy in the dining room, probably setting up breakfast.
Seeing Shi Yan coming downstairs with her school bag, su Wan smiled gently. “yanyan, you’re up? I’ve asked someone to prepare some breakfast and send it over. Quickly come over and have some breakfast before going to school.”
su wan didn’t usually prepare breakfast for her children so that they could eat well and go to school. she had only done this once in a while. the children in the shi family were all very mature and the shi family did not lack servants, so she did not need to do everything herself.
Ever since Shi Yan left the Shi family, her two sons had distanced themselves from her. Su Wan had never prepared breakfast for her children again.
she knew that shi yan had to get up early to go to school today, so she got up at five o ‘clock to prepare. in fact, she didn’t ask the servants to prepare breakfast. she personally went to the kitchen in the main building to make it.
shi yan looked at her, gently pursed her lower lip, and remained silent for a long time.
after a long while, he said,”yingluo’s mother, i can have breakfast at school. you don’t have to get up so early to work.” it’s still early, you should sleep a little longer.”
“I don’t have much to do recently. I’ve been sleeping all day long and I’ve had enough sleep. I couldn’t sleep anyway, so I just got up.”
“come and have breakfast first.”
