Jian Qian Ning didn't expect herself to leave with Young Master An. When she first came, Yu Tian Heng had obviously helped her put on her jewelry and even bought her a wedding ring. It made her feel like she was being doted on.
If Yu Tianheng had forced her to attend the banquet in order to humiliate her and hurt her, then he had really done it. At this moment, she truly felt very embarrassed and miserable. It was as if a heavy stone had pressed down on her heart, causing her heart to ache painfully.
The light from the window swept across her face, illuminating the melancholy on her face. She leaned back in her chair silently, her quiet melancholy making people feel pity for her.
Young Master An glanced at her in the rearview mirror, but didn't say anything. Instead, he stealthily shifted the car in the opposite direction from the palace. However, Jian Qian Ning, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, did not notice at all.
When the car stopped on an empty beach, Jane woke up with a start and sat up straight, looking around her in the darkness. She looked at the sea and asked: "Why are you here?"
Young Master An was the first to release her seat belt, then he helped her untie her seat belt. After opening the door for her considerately, he said, "I can see that you're in a bad mood, so you must be quarreling when we go back. Why don't you come here and relax? Get off."
Jian QianNing sat dumbly in the carriage, thinking to herself that Young Master An and Yu Tian Heng were indeed blood brothers, even their ways of doing things were domineering and decisive. He didn't need to ask for her permission to pull her to the seaside. Didn't he think that it would be easier for them to quarrel if they came back late?
She raised her head and looked at Young Master An. Young Master An was also looking at her, looking so at ease and at ease. It was only natural. He used his lower jaw to point at the outside of the carriage. Finally, Jane QianNing did not hesitate anymore. She bent her body and got out of the carriage.
As he got off the car, the wind blew against his face. The sea breeze, which was salty and smelled like water, felt very comfortable. Maybe it was because he had been cooped up at the party for too long, and also because he had suppressed it for too long.
She couldn't help but take a step forward, her heels sinking into the soft sand that made her feet ache. However, a hint of happiness appeared on her face. She really needed this feeling of release.
"Take off your shoes and put them in the car." Young Master An looked at her.
Jian Qian Ning lowered her head to look at her sandals that were stuck in the sand. She bent down to remove her shoes, but because it was too dark, she could only rely on the half moon in the sky to bring faint light. She couldn't see very well, and the buckles were so complicated that she couldn't unfasten them for a long time.
Young Master An walked up and knelt at her feet. "Stand still, I'll help you."
"No need, I'll do it myself." She had never had a man take off her shoes before, and she didn't think it was good. However, Young Master An didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it. He forcefully pulled her hand away from the buckle, turned on the light on his cell phone screen, and easily undid the buckle for her. Then, he held her ankle with one hand, and with the other hand, he buckled up her shoes, took them off her feet, and put them under the car seat.
When she took off her shoes and stepped on the beach, she finally felt better. She used her hands to hold onto the hem of her dress as she walked step by step towards the sea in front of her. The sea was dark and choppy, and the sound of the waves filled his ears.
The sand beneath her feet was shamelessly dry to wet. A refreshing feeling rose from the bottom of her feet to the tip of her heart. She could feel the coolness of the sea water. In the dead of night, she, who was only wearing a shoulder-revealing dress, felt really cold. Instead, she pulled her skirt up to her knees and let the cool water run through her legs and back to the shore, bit by bit.
"Qian Ning, come back!" Young Master An shouted at her from a few dozen meters away.
Jian QianNing turned her head, and could faintly see the anxiety on his face. She couldn't help but feel some bitterness in her heart. Was he afraid that she would be too distracted by something? How is this possible? She would not leave while she was still with Zhe Zhe and Xin Xin.
"Be careful of snakes in the water!" Young Master An opened his mouth to scream again. He ran closer and saw that Young Master An's face was filled with evil intentions. He knew that she was most afraid of snakes, and that he was trying to scare her!
Jian Qian Ning looked at him angrily. Her skirt was pulled up to her knees and her slim legs looked like white jade under the moonlight. Because of the cold, her body was trembling slightly. He then scratched her nose and said, "Don't look at me like that. I'm not trying to scare you. Water Snakes like to move at night."
His coat was loose on her, and still warm from his body, and it warmed up into her flesh. She tugged at her oversized suit jacket with both hands and sat on the sand with her knees bent.
Young Master An turned around and walked back to the car. He took out a stack of newspapers and said, "It's not that dirty or cold to sit in a newspaper."
"Thank you." Jian Qian Ning placed the newspaper on the beach gratefully, raised her head and looked at him, then asked, "Young Master An, why are you leaving so early tonight? And Sister Yun, would she be unhappy? "
Jian Qianlin thought of the elegant and refined Sister Yun and thought to herself that now that Young Master An had suddenly left, she would definitely be heartbroken to death.
"There's nothing bad about it. Actually, Tian Heng and Qin'er can go, but dad told me to go as well." As for Yun'er, don't worry. We've been friends for many years, and she won't be unhappy. Her son is already two years old. " Young Master An smiled and sat beside her.
"Hmm? Is that so? I really can't tell that she's a mother. "
"Women nowadays all know how to take care of themselves. Who would be like you, busying themselves blindly all day long, making themselves look like a person." Young Master An turned his body and used his fingers to support her lower jaw, using his deep gaze to size her up. It was this face that did not know how to take care of itself, whether it was from six years ago or now.
Long Fei always said that he was a person with a muddled eye. Perhaps it really was like this, he had no choice but to admit this!
Jian Qian Ning held her little face in his hands, her eyes twinkling under the moonlight. She laughed in a low voice, and asked him with a smile, "Really? Was he really that crippled? Had he lost face for Tian Heng tonight? "Is that why he did this to me?"
She remembered what Secretary Liu had said yesterday morning. She had said that she would only embarrass herself if Yu Tian Heng brought her to the banquet. She had said that she was like a village woman or a bamboo pole. She didn't care what she looked like, whether she was beautiful or not. She only cared if she had really disgraced Yu Tian Heng. Was this the reason he had treated himself and embarrassed himself like this? What else is there besides this?
Her eyes unconsciously filled with moisture, sparkling with even more bright specks of starlight. She had no choice but to lower her eyes.
"It's not that he's crippled, it's that he's so thin that it makes one's heart ache." Young Master An pulled her into his embrace, his cheek against her hair. "Tian Heng doesn't understand you, so he doesn't treasure you. You must love yourself, understand?"
She had always loved him. When she was young, because she wasn't very sensible, she loved him for her parents. All these years, it had been for her children, even if it was for them.
"Young Master An, do you still love me?" She leaned against his shoulder with a very light strength, as if she was afraid of hurting him. Her voice was also very soft, as if she was afraid of scaring him. But this question... It was really hard for the two of them to relax.
Young Master An didn't understand why she suddenly asked this question. No matter what her purpose was, it wouldn't be what he expected. Therefore, he only said flatly, "I don't think I need to answer this question anymore, because it has no meaning. When you really need my answer one day, I will answer it."
When she needed it, he would understand her and know that she was a very persistent person. He was afraid that he would never need it again in this lifetime.
Jian Qianyu withdrew from his embrace and stared fixedly into his deep eyes. The tenderness flowing within them allowed her to understand what was going on. She also knew the answer. He still loved her! This was also the outcome that she was most afraid of seeing.
He had left his girl companion for her and left the party. He had come here to blow the sea breeze for her, and she could feel his concern. And she had asked the question because she wanted to hear the answer he denied, to persuade him not to treat her blindly. That would only hurt him, since the Lady Dowager had been hoping every day for him to marry and have children.
"Find a woman who suits you and marry her and have children. It's better to have two lives than one." she said softly.
Young Master An laughed disapprovingly as he turned his head to look into the distance, where the waves were rolling, "Is it like you and Tian Heng? Qian Ning, ask your conscience. Are you really living a happy life? Happiness? Six years ago, you were very lively and cheerful, and your whole body was exuding the aura of youth. But now? What have you become of yourself? Marry Tian Heng and lead a life of two people. I've never seen you truly smile in Yu Family for so long. If you can't even smile, then how can you be happy? "
"I …" Jian Qianxing was stunned. For a moment, she was speechless. What he said was right. Ever since she married Yu Tian Heng, she had never laughed. It should be said that ever since Zhe Zhe disappeared, she had never laughed properly.
"As long as we can live together every day, we will be happy." After hesitating for a while, she finally said this.
"Young Master An, because of your matter, my wife is going to have a head full of white hair. Every day, she talks about how she wants you to get married soon. Don't you want to get married quickly and give her a few grandchildren to relieve her boredom?"
"Qian Ning, don't discuss this with me. Even if you were to advise me to build a family, you shouldn't have stepped in. Don't say anymore." Every word that she had said was ear-piercing. It was really hard for him not to be angry.
Was she trying to persuade him because she was afraid that he would affect her? Afraid he would cause her trouble?
Qian Ning tugged at her suit jacket, but didn't say anything. Actually, she knew Master An wouldn't listen to her, but she couldn't help herself. Because he really didn't want to see him lose anything because of him.
