Chapter 1454: Fall—Call Third Sister-in-Law, and You’ll Have Candy… (4,000 Words)

Through the rolled-down car window, Na Ren saw Ji Chenzhou again. He didn't expect that his heart would be so calm.

He was still so handsome, but it was obvious that his cold face had lost a lot of weight, and his facial features were more three-dimensional and profound.

The sunlight in the early winter afternoon was very dazzling, just like the smile on Na Ren's face, which made people unable to look away.

Ji Chenzhou looked at Na Ren smiling at him, and his hands on the steering wheel tightened again and again.

He thought Na Ren would turn around and leave when he saw him, but he didn't expect that he would smile...

This kind of smile is a kind of relief, a kind of alienation...

Ji Chenzhou also smiled, but his smile seemed particularly bitter.

His eyes were fixed on Tan Meng's arm around Na Ren.

Ji Chenzhou didn't speak, and Na Ren didn't speak either. Tan Meng's face was always wearing a faint smile.

This stalemate lasted about three minutes. Just as Ji Chenzhou was about to speak, Na Ren and Tan Meng walked away, and an empty taxi came behind.

Through the rearview mirror, Ji Chenzhou watched Na Ren help Tan Meng get into the car, and then he didn't even look at himself or his car, but got into the taxi directly...

Watching the taxi disappear in front of his eyes, Ji Chenzhou looked at the place where Na Ren had stood just now, as if no one had ever stood there, and Na Ren had never appeared...

Tan Meng moved in the next day, and Qin Nan made a hot pot. Because Tan Meng was pregnant, she had a clear soup pot.

Three people of similar age, eating and chatting, Qin Nan was definitely responsible for the funny atmosphere.

Every word he said made Na Ren and Tan Meng laugh.

On the other side, Ji Chenzhou watched them eat hot pot through the screen.

Looking at the steaming hot pot, Ji Chenzhou actually felt that it must be the most delicious food in the world.

The mobile phone on the table kept ringing, and Fan Bin's name flashed on it.

It was not until Na Ren and the others started to clean up the table and stopped eating that Ji Chenzhou answered the phone.

"Chenzhou, do you and Ji Jiu have to do this?" Fan Bin's suppressed voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Binzi, you are my best brother, so don't tell me any big truths."

Ji Chenzhou lit a cigarette, and the ashtray was full, which was enough to show how many cigarettes he smoked that day.

"Chenzhou, I just hope you are fine!"

Fan Bin hung up the phone after saying that. He knew that no one could persuade him. The people in their Ji family have always been stubborn.

Christmas

Naren looked at the toys on the co-pilot seat. Today, Lord Jue called him and said that it was Christmas and asked him to come over. No one else, their family of four, to have a meal together.

Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu kept calling him on the phone. Naren missed them very much, so he agreed.

Lord Jue specifically said no one else, Naren knew he was referring to Ji Chenzhou.

Naren bought a car, which was chosen by Qin Nan and Tan Meng. It was a Beetle, and it was a red one...

When Naren arrived, Gu Jue was cooking, and Chu Baiqing opened the door for him.

As always, Chu Baiqing still had that reassuring smile on his lips.

"Bought a car?" Chu Baiqing asked with a smile when he saw the red Beetle parked in the yard.

"Well, the color is a bit that..."

Naren smiled awkwardly. There was nothing he could do. Qin Nan and Tan Meng both liked this color.

He had no idea about cars. In fact, he liked bicycles more...

"Very good. Come in. Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu have been talking about you!"

Chu Baiqing touched Naren's head. This habitual action, Chu Baiqing would do it whenever he saw Naren.

"Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu, come here!"

The living room was very warm. Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu were wearing vests and shorts, crawling around on the sofa, very cute.

"Third sister-in-law..." Xiaoqi said.

"Brother..." Xiaojiu said.

Naren didn't expect Xiaoqi to still remember Ji Chenzhou's joke.

She actually called him the third sister-in-law...

"Call me the third sister-in-law, there will be candy..." Xiaoqi knocked on Xiaojiu's head and said.

"Third sister-in-law..." Xiaojiu showed an expression of sudden enlightenment when he heard it.

I remembered that the third brother said that if you are obedient and call me the third sister-in-law, you will get candy...

Narren's face was flushed. The two children didn't know what the third sister-in-law meant. All they knew was that they would get candy.

"Come, brother brought you toys. Let's play together!"

Narren smiled and took off his coat, put it on the sofa, and took out the toys he brought.

It was a track and a racing car that needed to be assembled. Little boys like this.

"Xiaoqi, give that to brother..." Naren kept emphasizing brother.

"Third sister-in-law, give it to..." Xiaoqi handed Naren a small section of the track and still called him the third sister-in-law.

This call of the third sister-in-law made Naren feel painful like a needle piercing his heart.

Gu Jue prepared the meal and asked them to come and eat.

Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu didn't want to eat and wanted to continue playing. Gu Jue let them do it. Chu Boqing said that it was not good for him to spoil the children like this.

The two quarreled for a few words. The man looked at them talking to each other, and the corners of his mouth kept smiling.

There are people who love around you, and children laughing, even if they are noisy, it is so happy and beautiful.

This was what he had longed for...

In the end, the Lord was defeated, and Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu washed their hands and ate.

Naren walked into the kitchen and heard Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu's cheerful voices behind him.

"Third brother..."

"Third brother..."

"Why are you back?" Chu Baiqing asked.

Naren's body stiffened...

Ji Chenzhou is here...

Then came his voice, "Today is not Christmas, I must be back to accompany them two!"

"Third brother, third sister-in-law..."

Xiao Qi took Ji Chenzhou's hand and pointed at Na Ren who was standing at the door of the kitchen.

He probably wanted to say, "Third brother, third sister-in-law is over there!"

However, what I said was not completely clear...

"Go wash your hands...come and eat!"

Finally, what Naren heard was Chu Baiqing's voice.

Naren took a deep breath, and faced him with a smile just like he did when waiting for the bus that day.

The dining table at Gu Jue and Chu Baiqing's house is not a particularly big one. It is a very cozy place for four people to sit across from each other. On either side is Xiao Jiu's dining chair and on the other side is Xiao Qi's dining chair.

In the past, when Ji Chenzhou and Na Ren came to eat, they would sit on one side.

Chu Baiqing and Gu Jue's side...

Today Gu Jue and Chu Baiqing were still sitting on one side, leaving only Na Ren and Ji Chenzhou sitting together.

When Na Ren was about to sit down, Ji Chenzhou habitually pulled out the chair for Na Ren.

Naren felt a sense of sadness in his heart, "Thank you..."

What came out was a distant thank you. After saying this, Naren himself felt surprised. These two words came out of his mouth without thinking at all.

"It should be!" Ji Chenzhou's face darkened slightly, and his tone became a little stiff.

Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiu bit their spoons and looked at the third brother and the third sister-in-law, their cute eyes filled with confusion. What happened to the third brother and the third sister-in-law? Why is it different from usual...

Gu Jue and Chu Baiqing really didn't expect Ji Chenzhou to come back, because before calling Na Ren, they confirmed with him that he wouldn't come back.

"Naren, eat the food!" Chu Baiqing saw that Naren was not eating with chopsticks, so she smiled and gave him a piece of ribs.

"Young Master is great!" Naren took a bite of the ribs and gave Gu Jue a thumbs up.

After doing this action and saying this sentence, everyone looked at Naren, because this was something he would not do before.

"That... I have lived with my friend for a long time, and I learned it from him."

Naren smiled sheepishly, Qin Nan always said that he was like this every time, and he would give a thumbs up to everything.

Chu Baiqing glanced at Ji Chenzhou and saw that the knuckles of his hands holding chopsticks had turned white.

Naren had lived with him for so long, but he didn't necessarily learn anything from him.

One can imagine how bad Ji Shenzhou's mood must be at this time.

"It's delicious, just eat more, you're too thin!"

Na Ren has always been thin, even Qin Nan cooks in different ways every day.

Naren still didn't gain weight, and he didn't eat much.

However, Tan Meng had gained weight recently, so Qin Nan's skills were finally not wasted.

Ji Chenzhou was sitting next to him, and even with a smile on his face, Naren's whole body was tense.

They used to have such a close relationship, but now it's so awkward to sit together.

The sadness in his heart made Naren a little breathless.

Naren kept eating rice with his head down and did not pick up vegetables.

When Ji Chenzhou put a meatball in a bowl for him, Na Ren's eyes were red and he couldn't control his emotions.

No matter how strong you pretend to be, one action or word can make your emotions collapse.

"Master Chu... I suddenly remembered that I have to go... to pick up a friend. I'll leave first..."

Na Ren lowered his head, stood up, and walked out while talking. He knew that he was somewhat useless like this.

However, he would rather run away than cry here.

Ji Chenzhou's eyes kept staring at the dishes on the table, and veins popped out on his forehead.

"I'm going to see him..." Chu Baiqing stood up. He saw Na Ren crying when he got up.

"I'll go!" Ji Chenzhou stood up suddenly, threw down his chopsticks, and strode out.

When Naren was about to run out of the courtyard, he remembered that he came by car.

He came back again, and when he opened the door and was about to get in the car, his arm was pulled by a force, and before he could react, he was imprisoned in the car.

When the familiar atmosphere lingered around him, Naren's eyes blurred by tears reflected Ji Chenzhou's cold and evil face.

Just as Naren was about to say let go, his lips were sealed.

There are too many emotions in this kiss, including longing, entanglement, anger, distress...

The complex emotions can be felt on the tip of your tongue.

Ji Chenzhou kissed harder and harder, and Na Ren cried harder and harder...

The two of them pressed their foreheads against each other, their breaths mingling...

Na Ren couldn't break free from Ji Chenzhou's arms.

"Let me hold you for a while..."

I don’t know if it was because the winter night was too cold and Ji Chenzhou was only wearing a shirt. His words had a nasal sound, as if he was crying...

Naren closed his eyes slightly, that's all, why didn't he covet this embrace.

"I'm fine..." Na Ren spoke softly, his voice a little harsh.

"Don't worry... or blame yourself!" When Ji Chenzhou hugged Na Ren tighter, Na Ren spoke again.

Ji Chenzhou's body trembled. This was his Naren. It was obvious that the wrong person was Ji Chenzhou, but at this time, he came to comfort him...

"Ji Chenzhou, we don't owe each other anything. I was the one who initiated the breakup, so don't feel guilty towards me..."

"If you ask me to give up photography, I won't want to. I think the path you want to take is probably the same..."

In fact, there was another sentence that Na Ren didn't say, he couldn't stay by Ji Chenzhou's side.

Because Ji Jiu said, "Na Ren, you are Ji Chenzhou's weakness..."

Na Ren knew very well how dangerous what Ji Chenzhou did was, so he couldn't become a weak spot for others to attack.

Ji Chenzhou needs stronger support, not the time bomb he is.

Therefore, he was so determined to break up and couldn't stay with him, lest it distract him and hurt him...

Since Ji Chenzhou must follow his path, all he can do is not to become a burden to him.

"Shut up, stop talking..."

Ji Chenzhou's voice was suppressed. How could he be so good?

Why is it so good...

"Shen Zhou, I am naive, but I am not stupid. I understand everything..."

Na Ren was talking about Shen Zhou, not Ji Chenzhou...

If there wasn't that person looking for him, he might just guess a lot of things but not be sure.

"What do you know...I'm just an asshole."

Ji Chenzhou held Na Ren's face, this fool, big fool...

"I understand you!" Three short words are worth a thousand words...

Ji Chenzhou's eyes were blurred by tears, "You fool..."

Today is the engagement party between Ji Chenzhou and Xiaoyao.

Some people are looking forward to it, some people are planning it, so such a day is destined to be uneventful.

After Qin Nan packed up his things, he urged Naren to hurry up.

"You are so slow. I have prepared all my things, but you haven't finished packing them yet. You are telling me what you will do if you don't have me in the future. It's really worrying!"

Qin Nan shouted to Naren who was installing the camera there.

Naren knew that Qin Nan insisted on going out of the city today because the whole country was rejoicing and tonight was Ji Chenzhou's engagement party.

He told Qin Nan that he was fine, but he was still worried.

Qin Nan kept talking there, and Na Ren felt particularly warm in his heart.

If Qin Nan wasn't by his side, he really didn't know what to do.

He must not be used to it without Jean's nagging, no, he probably can't live without him...

"I'll be driving today, you just need to stay comfortable!"

Qin Nan had good driving skills. After putting everything away, he urged Na Ren to get in the car.

Naren smiled and gave him the car keys. Anyway, he didn't want to drive. He preferred bicycles.

When he said he wanted to buy a car that day, Qin Nan said that he knew the owner of a car dealership and he could get a bargain, so he took Na Ren with him.

When I got there, I realized it was a bicycle shop. Looking at the bicycles, Naren quite liked them.

When their car drove out of the community, the two people who were chatting and laughing in the car did not notice that there were two cars following them.

They didn't expect that danger was approaching them, and they were still talking about what was delicious.
