She Is From The Countryside

172 i can’t accompany you tomorrow

after jiang cheng and jiang rui returned to jiang rui’s courtyard to eat, jiang cheng didn’t leave immediately.

someone came to clean up the bowls and chopsticks and took them away, leaving only the two of them in the courtyard.

the two of them sat in the living room and did not speak.

The distance between them was still a little far.

This had never happened before. In the past, the two of them liked to sit together.

However, he couldn’t just sit there. The atmosphere was a little awkward.

this kind of awkwardness made jiang rui very uncomfortable.

she had never thought that she would feel embarrassed when she was alone with her brother.

She didn’t like this kind of change.

after randomly changing two tv channels, he threw the remote control aside and said, ” “brother, it’s getting late. you should go back and rest.”

“jiang rui ‘er, are you chasing me away?”

jiang cheng looked up at her. his eyes were calm, but they seemed to be hurt.

Jiang Rui couldn’t bear to see him like this.

“of course not!” she quickly said.

“So you’re deliberately distancing yourself from me?”

It was obvious.

but jiang rui did not dare to say that.

he shook his head.

“since you’re not deliberately distancing yourself from me, why are you sitting so far away? jiang rui ‘er, do i have the virus?”

Jiang Rui,”Yingluo.”

To even say something like plague, it seemed like he was really angry.

not only was she angry, but she also looked hurt.

“yingluo, i just think that it’s better to watch tv here.”

“is that so?”

“yes, i am.” Jiang Rui’s tone was sincere, but she felt a little guilty.

” then who was the one who used to sit here and stick to me, saying that it’s good to watch tv from this angle? ”

jiang rui was silent.

At the same time, he looked a little dejected.

She recalled the times when they were together. He did like to sit in that position, while she always liked to stick to him and watch TV. She would either hug his arm and lean on his shoulder, or lie directly on his lap.

jiang rui didn’t reply to him. after a few seconds of silence, she stood up. ” brother, i’m a little tired after so many days of military training. i’ll go upstairs and rest first. ”

She didn’t even look at him and ran upstairs.

jiang cheng looked at her back as she went upstairs and only retracted his gaze after a long time.

She turned off the TV but didn’t leave immediately. She sat for almost an hour before she got up and went back to her own courtyard.

he could not force her too much even if he gave her time.

however, judging from her behavior tonight, it seemed that his feelings for her had a greater impact on her than her background.

this was good too.

she wouldn’t be too hurt by her birth.

As for his feelings for her, it would not cause her any harm. He just needed to give her more time to adapt to the change in their relationship.

Shi Yan and Jiang che went out for a walk after dinner.

When she came back from the walk, Xiao Zhao had also come back from the main building. shi yan learned about the general situation in the main building from xiao zhao. after confirming that jiang rui was in good condition, she finally felt relieved.

it was almost 10:30 pm when shi yan sent jiang che out.

The two of them stood at the entrance of the courtyard. Jiang che leaned forward slightly and brushed Shi Yan’s long hair behind her ear.”i’ll drop you off here. have an early rest, miss shi.”

Rui ‘er might not feel good. I’m going to attend the audition with my roommate tomorrow, so I’m taking Rui’ er to take a walk. I can’t accompany you.

it was as expected.

although it was expected, jiang che still felt a little upset when he thought about how she had to go and accompany someone else when she finally had time after the military training.

He held her waist with one hand and held her face. miss Shi, you can finally rest after half a month of military training, but you went to accompany someone else. I probably need some compensation.

“There will be compensation.” Shi Yan wrapped her arms around his waist and looked up at him with a faint smile.

“What?” jiang che lowered his gaze to look at her. under the dim street light, his face was clear and warm.

Shi Yan met his gaze and smiled. ” the calligraphy i wrote was originally for you. i’ll give it to you after i treat my roommates to a meal tomorrow afternoon. ”

“You personally wrote it to send me?” jiang che’s peach-shaped eyes were slightly raised, looking a little intoxicating.

shi yan stared at it for a few seconds.

“yes,” he replied softly.

her gaze did not move away. she stared at the corners of his eyes, which were smiling, and tiptoed to kiss him.

under the hazy moonlight and the dim streetlights, shi yan looked at his intoxicating eyes and kissed him. she did not close her eyes from the beginning to the end.

Jiang che didn’t close his eyes either.

the two of them looked at each other and kissed.

Perhaps it was because the atmosphere at night was too good, or perhaps it was because she suddenly kissed him without closing her eyes, but when she looked at him, her eyes were filled with rare affection and infatuation. Jiang che was surprisingly not as strong as before. His hand that was holding her face slipped down and rested on her shoulder, looking down at her.

She was the one who held the initiative.

Her kiss was just like her, reserved and unhurried.

However, she seemed to have a bit of strength in her bones. Her actions were gentle and calm, but she was not timid and retreated.

from shallow to deep, it was a gentle yet strong entanglement.

Jiang Muchen was taking a walk with Jiang Heng. They were about to return to their own courtyards when they saw this scene from afar.

“I’ll go!” Jiang Heng jumped up in shock.

Jiang Muchen wasn’t much better off than him, but he was older than Jiang Heng and was calmer than him. He didn’t cry out immediately.

from a distance and with the dim streetlights, it was hard to see their faces clearly. however, they were at the entrance of shi yan’s courtyard. coupled with jiang che’s unique temperament, it was not difficult to tell that it was them.

“Is that Zhenzhen’s fifth master and miss Shi?”

Jiang Heng nodded in a daze and pulled him to sit on a bench. “Let’s go over later.” Otherwise, it would be awkward if they bumped into each other.

Well, when he thought about fifth uncle and sister Yan’s calm personality, he figured that it would be him and third uncle who would be embarrassed instead of them.

he didn’t expect the two of them to progress so quickly.

Most importantly, Wanwan was his fifth uncle!

never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that he would one day see his fifth uncle kissing a girl so affectionately!

It was really exciting!

Jiang Muchen turned back to look again. The two of them were still kissing.

he retracted his gaze in bewilderment.

fortunately, he had been mentally prepared when he saw master five coming to get clothes for the other party yesterday. otherwise, he would have been frightened by such a scene.

when he thought of this person who had affectionately kissed a girl at the main entrance of the house and the same person who had cruelly crippled a person’s legs three years ago in the capital’s jiang family, he was a little unsettled and a little incredulous.

“How much do you know about Lord fifth?” he asked jiang heng with a sigh.

I don’t know much, but I should know what I should know. Since I was young, my grandmother and my parents have always mentioned fifth uncle to me. Even my Big Uncle, who doesn’t talk much, specially called me and my sister to give them a lecture before fifth uncle moved into the house.

“those who have heard of fifth uncle would know that he is a gentleman like jade, calm and carefree, as if he doesn’t have a temper. But at the same time, they also know that fifth uncle is very terrifying when he is ruthless.”

A ruthless person wasn’t considered ruthless, but to be able to maintain a gentleman’s demeanor while being ruthless, that was a truly ruthless person.

it was also more frightening.
