These words had a great impact on him.

Zhu Jiangci looked at her, the meaning in his eyes unclear.

After a long time, his lips curled up into a smile.

How could she be this foolish? She had clearly suffered the most, and the one who had suffered the most was her. But now, she was the one who had to console herself instead.

"You don't want me to hide anything from you, you don't want me to force myself to stay together with you. I'm afraid that I might be unhappy, and I'm the same as you.

"Not good." Zhu Jiangci stopped her from speaking, "You must always stay by my side, where I can see you."

Su Qiao An gave a sweet smile, her clear eyes lit up, and she nodded lightly, "I don't hold a grudge, but you don't have to be so sarcastic. Life is so short, and we can't even be in time together, why are you still thinking about the past? Could it be that just by thinking about it, you can change what happened in the past? Besides, if it weren't for those things, you wouldn't have noticed me, and I'm afraid to disturb you. "

Misfortunes and blessings depended on each other!

Who said that there must be a greater misfortune behind misfortune?

She had never before realized that she had the ability to enjoy this sort of misery.

Su Rong had told her before, that they couldn't choose between life's good and bad, but they could choose to adjust their own mindsets and only see the misfortune in life. She wouldn't be happy in her entire life.

Zhu Jiangci's heart slightly moved, he leaned forward and kissed her eyes, "Thank you."

Thank you for not giving up. Thank you for giving me another chance.

If she could help him, she would have to force herself to face that bloody past again.

She was braver than anyone else. At least she chose to seal it and put it down.

As for him …

He couldn't let it go.

The only thing he could do was to use his next life to cherish her and protect her. He knew that doing so would only make up for it.

But...

He would feel better.

Su Qiao An heaved a sigh of relief and released the hand on his neck, "I will accept this thanks. In the future, you don't need to say those words in front of me anymore, and you don't need to apologize to me either.

If she hadn't said it, he would have done the same.

He had owed a lot of debts in his life, but the one who had caused him the most heartache was only Su Qiao An.

She was the person he had to spend his entire life to pay his debts to, and he was willing to do so.

It was New Year's Eve after Valentine's Day.

Su Qiao An thought that Zhu Jiangci would not come back for the Spring Festival, so he did not have anything to prepare for it.

Therefore, after breakfast, they could only go out to buy things for their families.

Due to the man asking for it endlessly last night, Su Qiao An's body felt very uncomfortable.

The corridor couldn't be considered deserted. Due to the new year celebration, many doors were pasted with the Spring Festival couplets.

Su Qiao An endured her discomfort and followed him downstairs. After getting on the car, she leaned against the chair and rested as if a burden had been lifted off her shoulders.

Originally, Zhu Jiangci did not allow her to follow him out, but she thought that this would be their first Spring Festival after all. No matter what, she wanted to stay by his side.

The usually crowded street was a little deserted today. Other than the sanitation workers who were still cleaning the street, there were barely any pedestrians on the street. Many shops were closed and there was a temporarily closed notice on the street.

Su Qiao An sighed, "If I knew you were coming back, I would have arranged everything two days in advance. Now that there is nothing at home, and the shop is closed, I will go back to celebrate the new year. If we come out now, will we not be able to buy anything at all?"

"Let's try our luck." He didn't really care, it was enough for him to be together with Su Qiao An. These formalities, he did not even care about them, it was just that Su Qiao An said that it was a New Year, after all, it had to be something new.

Otherwise, he had no intentions of bringing Su Qiao An out to buy things in this weather.

Not to mention that Su Qiao An was afraid of the cold, just from last night's indulgence alone, she was exhausted. He only wanted Su Qiao An to rest well, and did not want her to follow him around.

He couldn't stand Su Yun's persistence, so he could only allow her to do as she pleased.

Hearing Su Qiao An's words, she drove the car to the market, and just as Su Qiao An was about to get out of the car, Zhu Jiangci stopped her and said, "Didn't you just give me the menu? "Don't follow me in, just wait in the car."

"Will you buy it?" Su Qiao An was suspicious of his picky taste.

"You know how to do it, but you don't know how to buy it?" Zhu Jiangci smiled and reached out to pinch her nose, "Be obedient and wait for me in the car. I'll be back soon."

Zhu Jiangci gave her the car keys and got out, leaving her alone in the car.

In her boredom, she began rummaging through the contents of the car, poking and poking.

He opened up the storage area in front of the passenger seat and casually browsed through it. He saw a pile of messy items, which were filled with kraft paper bags.

She gaped for a moment, then hesitated.

Isn't it disrespectful of his privacy to take it out and open it?

After hesitating for a while, she still obediently closed the storage room.

Even if they had the closest of relationships now, she could not overpower him and open his things without his permission.

She sat obediently and waited for around 15 minutes. Seeing that Zhu Jiangci still had not come out, she called him.

But he got out of the car and only took his wallet. He didn't even take his cell phone.

Su Qiao An heard his cellphone ring in the car, leaned over, and saw the phone that was left behind in the car, she sighed helplessly, isn't this guy a little too careless?

After she hung up, the phone that was crazily vibrating quieted down.

After a while, his phone started to vibrate again. Su Qiao An looked at his phone in a daze.

She has ended the call...

Zhu Jiangci spent a bit of time to find the meat and vegetables written on the menu that Su Qiao An had bought.

When he was done, he put the food in the trunk and got back into the car. "Are you in a hurry?" he said.

"Fortunately …"

He had just fastened his seat belt, so when he heard her sickly voice, Zhu Jiangci looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?"

She shook her head slightly and said nothing.

After buying the dishes, he was lucky enough to find a place to buy the Spring Festival Gala.

When they reached home, Su Yun got off the carriage first and stood at the side waiting for him. Seeing him take something out from the trunk, she wanted to help, but Zhu Jiangci did not allow him.

When he finally entered the house, Su Qiao An changed into slippers and followed Zhu Jiangci the whole way.

"Do you have something you want to tell me?" Zhu Jiangci asked.
