Chapter 18
The air in the morning is always fresher than at night, and there is less fatigue floating in the air.
Wen Qinghan pursed his lips in the dimness, and took a deep breath. There seemed to be some fragrance in the air that was not available in the past. She opened a gap in her eyes, and she saw Shi Qingqiu who looked across from her last night and gradually fell asleep.
The sun shines through the curtains, and the faint light illuminates Shi Qingqiu’s soft face. The black curly hair is spread on the pillow and her shoulders, and the corners of her lips are curved, light but gentle.
“Dreaming? Is it a very beautiful dream…” Wen Qinghan murmured with a smile, reaching out and stopping on Shi Qingqiu’s cheek.
She held her thin hands slightly, as if holding Shi Qingqiu’s face, from Shi Qingqiu’s ears to her chin, her hands were clearly empty, but she seemed to have touched Shi Qingqiu.
Be careful not to be alarmed.
The eyebrows of the person in front of him suddenly wrinkled, Wen Qinghan quickly retracted his hand and closed his eyes, constricting his smile. She felt Shi Qingqiu move, and a slight sigh came. She moved her hand in cooperation and slowly opened her eyes.
“Good morning, Qing Han.” Shi Qingqiu greeted lazily, buried her face in the pillow again, holding the quilt in her hands and lifting it up, as if she wanted to continue sleeping.
“Good morning, I’ll get up and call for breakfast. I’ll call you later.” Wen Qinghan’s sleepiness faded slowly just now, and now she looks much more energetic than Shi Qingqiu.
When Qingqiu saw Qingqiu closed his eyes and let out an “um”, Wen Qinghan gently lifted the quilt and got out of the bed. She went to the window and drew the curtains to let the light fill the room. She looked back at Shi Qingqiu while she was sleeping with her back to her, with a smile on her mouth.
Wen Qinghan first called and asked someone to bring breakfast to the room before going to wash and change clothes. When the waiter brought breakfast up, Qingqiu also consciously got out of bed. After washing, Wen Qinghan was already sitting and ready to eat breakfast. Sitting and waiting for Qingqiu.
The breakfast was Xiaolongbao with soy milk. Wen Qinghan remembered that Qingqiu had eaten it many times. She handed her chopsticks over and said, “Qingqiu, the Xiaolongbao in this shop is also recommended by others. You can try it. taste good or not.”
The small but plump xiaolongbao was still steaming, and Shi Qingqiu took the chopsticks to pick one and put it in his mouth, biting the tender skin, and the fragrance of the meat instantly overflowed.
After eating one, she raised her eyebrows with a smile, and praised: “I feel like the one I usually eat has two flavors, but this one is also delicious.”
The corner of Wen Qinghan’s lips curled, and he put one in front of Shi Qingqiu, and said with a faint smile: “If you like it, eat more, and call if you don’t have enough.”
She lowered her head to take a sip of soy milk, and the sweetness spread from her mouth to her heart. I have wanted to be happy because of Shi Qingqiu’s happiness countless times, even if I didn’t choose myself, I also wanted to be happy for it. But only now did she understand that when Qingqiu’s smile came up because of her, this kind of happiness was the purest.
Shi Qingqiu was eating while watching Wen Qinghan’s graceful movements.
Wen Qinghan held a small steamed bun, bit by bit, and sipped soy milk from time to time. With his free hand, he went to the side to take a document, and slowly flipped the footer with his clean white fingers. Shi Qingqiu suddenly felt that when Wen Qinghan stayed with him, although he was not enthusiastic, he was more or less apathetic.
Shi Qingqiu picked up another steamed bun and asked, “Qing Han, what did you do during the meeting yesterday? Why did it seem that I got a lot of food recommendations here?”
It’s the night market and breakfast. I’m afraid it is recommended for lunch today.
Wen Qinghan conveniently closed the file and put it aside, and replied with a calm expression: “Of course you can’t run a small business in a meeting. It’s just that everyone chats together during a break. The people here just recommended some food.”
“Will you still chat with everyone?” Shi Qingqiu was a little surprised. It would be good for her to talk back and forth with unfamiliar people. Can she still chat?
Wen Qinghan glanced at her, and said indifferently, “Does everyone have to speak when we chat together? I can listen.”
Shi Qingqiu couldn’t hold back, and laughed softly. This is obviously a strong word, but it sounds like nothing is wrong. Everyone chats, there are always some people who don’t like to take the initiative to speak, just answer a few words from time to time, and then watch the whole process.
Wen Qinghan must be the best in this kind of person.
“That being the case, I have given you all the food for the past few days, and you are responsible for ordering me something to eat. Try not to have high-calorie food, like the kind of supper last night.” Good food is good food, But if she absorbs particularly well these days, it will be over.
“Yes.” Wen Qinghan agreed very seriously, then raised his chin and said, “Hurry up, it won’t taste good when it’s cold.”
Shi Qingqiu looked at Wen Qinghan’s slightly gentle look at the moment, thinking about the indifference that she instantly recovered after seeing the lawyer Cheng yesterday, and the look in her eyes that asked her seriously. Shi Qingqiu had a thought that sprung up like mushrooms in his heart. It was the thought that came up here yesterday.
“Qing Han, if you want to make our relationship public, please make it public.” Shi Qingqiu put down his chopsticks, softly but solemnly, “It’s not just the situation yesterday, we can be more natural. So if you want to make it public, I have no opinion. .”
Wen Qinghan looked at her deeply, as if to see her heart through her appearance, “Why do you say that suddenly?”
Shi Qingqiu smiled, pursing his lips, keeping the curvature of the corners of his lips, first bowed his head, and then raised his head to smile at Wen Qinghan, “There is no way out anyway, right? I didn’t intend to keep hiding it, sooner or later. It is to be made public.”
There is indeed no way out, Shi Qingqiu’s smile is natural and kind. They had already cut off their retreat when they registered, whether it was hers or Wen Qinghan’s.
“Eat breakfast first, I’ll talk about this later.” Unexpectedly, Wen Qinghan didn’t agree directly, but looked at her, his eyes seemed to fade.
A few words from Shi Qingqiu brought up the source of this relationship. They have not yet reached a tacit understanding and naturalness, like a pair of lovers, and even the publicity agreed by Shi Qingqiu is just because there is no way out.
Since when, what they have to do is no longer because of what they want to read? Wen Qinghan suddenly began to wonder, is she right or wrong when she proposes to get married?
Is this brave bravery right or wrong?
But watching Shi Qingqiu pull the fine hair that fell behind her ears, her face calm and beautiful, her profile shrouded in sunlight, she suddenly dispelled her worries.
Whether it is right or wrong is not yet known, Wen Qinghan only knows that the time to come will be very long, and Shi Qingqiu has many moments to decide whether to stay or leave. But she was willing to give everything Shi Qingqiu asked for.
After breakfast, Wen Qinghan packed up the papers and went to the meeting. Shi Qingqiu stayed in the hotel. She didn’t have the desire to go out for the time being. This time she came out, saying it was a relaxation, but it was actually aimed at the development of the relationship between the two people. Wen Qinghan is like this, so is she.
If this relationship were to be made public, Shi Qingqiu could imagine the surprise and joy of his parents. Yes, joy. She and Wen Qinghan have been arranged together intentionally or unintentionally since they were young. Naturally, they couldn’t think of so many when they were young, but when they think about it, they can naturally see the intentions of the two elders.
Now that they go round and round, they are still together, at least satisfying their parents’ wishes. Does this prove that all the experiences from birth to marriage are nothing but vain, and she and Wen Qinghan are destined to be together.
Shi Qingqiu finished his last sip of soy milk and looked at the empty lunch box in the morning light. He couldn’t help but smile. There was a bit of bitterness in his smile, which disappeared quickly. What do you want to do? This is the end of the matter and there is no way to go back.
Taking a break in the middle of the meeting, Wen Qinghan went to the pantry to make a cup of hot water. Because the people outside gathered in twos and threes, she leaned against the pantry door and looked away. It seems like looking at colleagues in the distance, but it doesn’t seem to be.
“Lawyer Wen.”
A gentle male voice rang around him, Wen Qinghan looked sideways, his thin lips raised slightly, and said, “Lawyer Cheng.”
The person who came was Cheng Haotian. After he said hello, he also went to drink a cup of hot water, and there was a faint tea fragrance. Wen Qinghan pursed his lips and turned around and said: “The rest time is almost over, I will go there first. After that, he turned around and planned to go.
“Wait, Lawyer Wen.” Cheng Haotian’s voice became anxious, calling Wen Qinghan.
“What’s the matter?” Wen Qinghan turned to look, her face was as cold as frost and snow, her clean fingers circled the cup, and the water in the cup was still hot.
But with such a simple appearance, Wen Qinghan was enough to make people stop and stop for her. She never knows how many people’s eyes she has inadvertently attracted, and how many people are moved by it.
“I’m sorry about what happened last night. I don’t know that you are married. Some time ago, I often troubled you.” Cheng Haotian is not a person who can’t let go. He feels it is a pity, but he can see Wen. The gentleness that Qing Han showed was worth it.
“It’s okay.” Wen Qinghan replied, “I didn’t take it to heart.”
This sentence can be said to make him sad and comfortable. What is sad is that he has not been accepted many times, and what is comfortable is that Wen Qinghan did not blame him for the offense.
Married, the acquaintance has been for a while. Obviously, when he eagerly wanted to pursue Wen Qinghan, Wen Qinghan’s mind was placed on his current lover. After thinking about it like this, Cheng Haotian only felt that he was about to cry without tears.
“That’s good, but there should be some reasons why you didn’t disclose this matter, so do you need me to keep it secret?” Cheng Haotian, who didn’t dare to think anymore, quickly opened the topic, hoping that he could do something for Wen Qinghan in the end. Even to help keep a secret is fine.
Regarding confidentiality…
“It’s not just the situation yesterday, we can be more natural. So if you want to make it public, I have no opinion.”
What Shi Qingqiu said in the morning echoed in Wen Qinghan’s ears in good time. She pursed her lips, and a soft color fell in her always indifferent eyes, and said, “It’s up to you, it’s okay.”
“That’s OK, then if someone is going to chase you or make me joke with you again, I will act accordingly.” Cheng Haotian smiled, he thought, Wen Qinghan probably doesn’t like to promote it, or is not ready yet To be public.
“Okay.” Wen Qinghan nodded politely, Yu Guangzhong saw someone waved at her and Cheng Haotian from a distance to indicate that they wanted to return to the meeting room, and the two stopped talking.
It’s just that Wen Qinghan raised her hand to look at the watch, and suddenly remembered something. Taking advantage of the few minutes left, she took out her mobile phone and started ordering lunch. The delivery address was the hotel and room number where they were staying.
