Proud Farm Girl With A Space

Chapter 376 I Really Like It

Since Qi Yuan knew him, it is unlikely that the two are the same person, right?

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaoxiao's face softened a little.

As if anticipating what she would ask next, Qi Yuan said in a timely manner: "It turned out that some measures were prepared, and Tongbao Bank has taken action..."

Jiang Xiaoxiao was taken aback: "How do you know what I want to ask you?"

Qi Yuan just smiled and said nothing, seeing her obviously relieved, he didn't know why, but the tension in his heart increased a bit.

He opened his mouth, and when his eyes touched the dish that hadn't been touched much, he choked back the words that came to his mouth.

Qi Yuan didn't speak any more, but kept feeding her vegetables.

He was afraid that after confessing for a while, he might not be able to eat this meal.

Seeing that he didn't seem to have any plans to continue, she also felt that

"Don't just focus on bringing me food, you can eat too."

"Um."

Qi Yuan responded as usual.

Jiang Xiaoxiao obviously noticed that his tone sounded a little dull, so he hesitated: "Do you have something to tell me?"

Qi Yuan avoided answering, "Let's talk after dinner."

After confirming from him that Cui An is from Tongbao Bank, and not someone pretending, a big stone in Jiang Xiaoxiao's heart fell to the ground. In addition, he was really hungry at the moment, so he didn't say anything, thinking about eating later It's not too late to ask after dinner.

After the meal, the servants came to pick up the leftovers and took them away, but there was still no sign of Ye Bei.

After comforting himself that it couldn't be such a coincidence, Jiang Xiaoxiao completely forgot about it, and focused on Tongbao Bank.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was still some time before classes at Bailu Academy, and while drinking tea with him in the waterside pavilion, Jiang Xiaoxiao still did not forget to ask Qi Yuan about the behavior and style of Tongbao Bank.

After all, Qi Yuan's family has business contacts with Tongbao Bank, so he must know something about Tongbao Bank.

After asking, Jiang Xiaoxiao found that Qi Yuan's state today was very strange, he seemed absent-minded, and his mind was always distracted when talking to her, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.

Jiang Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, and her voice gradually decreased.

"Qi Yuan, do you want to take a rest?"

After hearing her words, Qi Yuan also realized that his condition was not good, he was silent for a long time, as if he had made some decision, his eyes became firm.

He reached out to hold the girl's soft hand, and interlocked his fingers: "Xiaoxiao, come with me, I have something to say to you."

Jiang Xiaoxiao followed him obediently, and finally followed him all the way to the study.

The study room is furnished very simply. Judging from the uncollected brushes, rice paper and other items on the desk, we can vaguely see traces of the owner's activities here.

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked around the study, then looked away, and then looked sideways at the boy standing by the window with his hands behind his back.

A peach blossom protrudes into the study from the window. The peach blossoms on the branches in early spring are delicate and beautiful, and they look bright and pretty under the sunlight, forming a stark contrast with Qi Yuan who looks dignified by the window.

The sunlight was brilliant, and the room was silent, except for the sound of the two people's shallow breathing.

After a long time, Jiang Xiaoxiao spoke, breaking the silence.

"What do you want to say to me?"

Qi Yuan pursed his lips: "Wait a minute."

"…good."

After a cup of tea, the girl's clear voice sounded again: "Is it all right?"

"hold on."

...

Jiang Xiaoxiao waited for another quarter of an hour.

It wasn't until Ye Bei came in with the jade pendant that she finally understood why Qi Yuan kept asking her to wait.

When his line of sight touched the emerald green jade pendant, which was less than the size of a palm and covered with crystal clear jade, Jiang Xiaoxiao turned pale with shock and took two steps forward abruptly.

With just one glance, Jiang Xiaoxiao was sure that this jade pendant was the one she returned to that masked boy!

The appearance of flowing clouds and hundreds of blessings on the jade pendant, as well as layers of lines, are enough to explain everything.

Jiang Xiaoxiao raised his head in disbelief, "Why is this jade pendant here?!"

Ye Bei didn't say anything, he handed the jade pendant to Qi Yuan, bowed silently to the two of them, then walked out of the study room, hesitated, and closed the door anyway.

In fact, there is no need to confirm anything from him, Jiang Xiaoxiao knew that the most impossible possibility had come true the first time he saw the emerald green jade pendant.

For a moment, Jiang Xiaoxiao didn't know how to face him.

Emotions such as embarrassment, angry teeth itching, complexity, anger, and hesitation flipped back and forth in her heart.

"It's you."

Jiang Xiaoxiao's eyes dimmed, and he used an affirmative sentence.

Qi Yuan's body stiffened, he didn't dare to turn his head to look at her expression, his eyes fell on the peach blossom branches outside the window in a daze.

After a long time, Qi Yuan said, "It's me."

He paused, "I'm sorry."

He was apologizing for concealing his identity and for the lotus lantern that was cheated at the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival.

...

What responded to him was silence in the room.

Unable to hear her response, and unable to see her expression, Qi Yuan couldn't help feeling anxious, and quickly turned around to look at her.

Unexpectedly, what he saw was the calm expression on the little girl's face.

Qi Yuan panicked even more, his palms were sweating from nervousness.

"Smile?" He tried to shout, but Qi Yuan didn't realize that he was so nervous that his voice was trembling.

Jiang Xiaoxiao lowered his eyes, which were full of complexity.

She thought she should be angry, but what the man in front of her did for her made her not angry at all.

He is obviously the savior of his sister-in-law and niece, but he keeps silent because he likes her.

He has considered everything for his elder brother's restaurant, and he never revealed his thoughts before that.

In addition to these two things, there are many more.

For example, flower seedlings, heat preservation sheds, cooking, etc. Maybe he also did many things that benefited her, but she didn't know about it.

He has been proving with his actions that he really likes her.

Qi Yuan couldn't see her eyes clearly, his heart was already in a mess, and he walked to her side in two or three steps.

Qi Yuan didn't realize that he was walking with the same hands and feet at all.

He stretched his hand forward, as if he wanted to tug on her sleeve so that she would not annoy him or ignore him, but the timidity in his heart made him stretch his hand back.

Qi Yuan took a step back, leaving enough space, and squatted down.

As soon as he raised his head, he saw Jiang Xiaoxiao raised his eyebrows and said to him in an inaudible moody tone:

"—Young owner of Tongbao Bank, don't you have anything to say to me?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao didn't expect him to squat down, his expression was dazed for a moment.

Did he squat down because she kept her head down?

This guess made Jiang Xiaoxiao's heart tremble, and something was about to rush out.
