Su Yan didn't stay in his brother's house for too long. He took Cheng Kou and said goodbye, leaving the space to the three of them.
The white BMW drove out of Su Lei's house. Su Yan slowed down the car and asked casually, "Do you want me to take a look?"
He was referring to the villa that Xiao Moyu mentioned when he came here. Seeing Cheng Kou nod, he turned around and drove there. On the way, Su Yan told Cheng Kou that his fourth brother and Shen Lifeng each had the same villa, both of which were gifts from the head of the Su family - his grandfather Su Yuanshan.
Su Yan's house is not far from Su Lei's, and I guess the old man wants them to take care of each other.
Cheng Kou got out of the car and saw the two characters "Yanyuan" written in a flamboyant style on the gate of the courtyard.
Su Yan noticed her gaze and said, "Those are the words written by grandpa." The old man loved calligraphy, and even he and his brothers all practiced calligraphy well.
Shen Wenzhou would have people come to clean the house regularly, so even though Su Yan seldom came, the house was still clean and spotless.
Su Yan took Cheng Kou on a tour, and finally returned to the living room, where they sat on the sofa together. The TV was on, and there was a little noise in the room, which was not so awkward. But no one was in the mood to watch it, and Cheng Kou played with his fingers and talked to Su Yan in a casual manner.
Any useless words between lovers are sweet. Su Yan savored this feeling and slowly found something wrong. He looked at Cheng Kou, patted the seat next to him, and motioned for her to sit over.
Cheng Kou glanced at the position, which was so close to him. He thought of what Su Yan had said before, "You have to get used to it", hesitated for a moment, and then slowly moved over.
Su Yan stretched out his arms and held her shoulders.
Yeah, it feels good.
Cheng Kou felt the weight on her shoulders and smiled secretly. She reached out and grabbed the corner of Su Yan's clothes, as if she had discovered something interesting, and she refused to let go and gently pulled a few times.
Su Yan found that she really fell in love with this behavior, but he didn't get angry. He turned her head and signaled her with his eyes to speak if she had anything to say.
Cheng Kou played with the edge of his clothes, not daring to look at him. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "So Ye Qiduan?"
Su Yan looked at her with her eyes lowered and brows furrowed, and snorted softly.
She asked the question even though she knew he might get angry. This person has really learned to become arrogant due to his favor.
But never mind, no matter what she wants, he plans to indulge her.
Su Yan did not explain much about Ye Qiduan, and directly took Cheng Kou to make a dinner appointment with her.
Ye Qiduan was wearing a red skirt and curly hair, her eyes full of romantic exoticism. She thought Su Yan was going to the appointment alone, but she didn't expect that he brought a pretty girl with him. She raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Su Yan introduced generously, "My girlfriend, Cheng Kou."
Ye Qiduan screamed and gave Cheng Kou a hug.
Cheng Kou finally understood that what she saw was actually just the French enthusiasm that Ye Qiduan had inherited.
Su Yan was well-educated and was very quiet during the meal. But Ye Qiduan would stop after every bite to ask a few questions, most of which were about Cheng Kou.
Su Yan didn't say anything, so Cheng Kou had to answer herself. She wasn't hungry anyway, and wasn't very interested in the food here. Compared to all that, she was more curious about Su Yan, whom she mentioned, and his experiences in the past ten years.
As the conversation got more lively, the two of them simply put down their knives and forks and focused on talking.
Ye Qiduan and Cheng Kou got along very well, so much so that when Su Yan wanted to take Cheng Kou home after dinner, she stopped him and wanted Cheng Kou to stay with her.
Finally, after Cheng Kou promised to meet her again, Ye Qiduan reluctantly let go.
On the way back, Su Yan recalled his past in France and couldn't help but sigh at the horror of time.
Once upon a time, Ye Qiduan was such a cruel person, but in the end, his edges were smoothed out by time and love.
The carriage was extremely quiet. Su Yan spoke softly, "The first time I saw her, she was singing. She was wearing a red dress like the one she wore today. She was very beautiful. She was obviously in her twenties, but she still looked like a girl. However, the second time we met, she almost killed me."
Seeing Cheng Kou suddenly looking at him with eyes wide open, Su Yan smiled, took out one hand and patted the back of her hand soothingly.
"I also find it unbelievable. How could a little girl like her be so cruel?" Su Yan still feels scared when he thinks about the situation at that time. It was the closest time to death in his life so far. If any accident had happened at that time, he would not be able to be with Cheng Kou like this today.
"What happened next?" Cheng Kou couldn't describe how she felt. She just wished she could travel through time to come to Su Yan at that time and hug him tightly.
"The third time I met her, she pitifully asked me for help." Su Yan laughed, "I've never seen anyone as shameless as her. I was angry that she hurt me, and I didn't want to pay attention to her. But later, I softened my heart and helped her."
Speaking of the present situation between him and Cheng Kou, Ye Qiduan also contributed to it. If he had chosen to refuse at the beginning, he and Cheng Kou might have continued to miss each other. Thinking of this, he seemed to be relieved.
"Cheng Kou, Qi Duan is my good friend, don't hold a grudge against her." He raised his hand and stroked her long hair. "If I have time, I will tell you everything."
"Okay." Cheng Kou nodded and loosened his clenched hands.
Since he said it was over, it didn't matter. She would love him a little more every day to fill the missing ten years.
Cheng Kou fell into deep thought. He looked out the window again and realized that the car had unknowingly driven into Yuren Garden and was heading towards the underground garage.
Cheng Kou followed Su Yan in the elevator to the seventh floor, still reluctant to leave. Su Yan guessed what she was thinking, and asked, "Do you want to come to my house?"
Every time she went to Su Yan's house, her mood was different. In the morning she was still uneasy, but in the evening she felt reluctant to leave. She thought, she really finally understood what love was.
Suddenly thinking of something, Cheng Kou called Su Yan, "Xia Linchen and I have nothing."
Su Yan stared at her quietly. Her eyes were indeed full of his figure. Then she nodded slowly, "I know."
Even if he didn't know it before and had some misunderstandings, he understood everything from the moment she said she liked him.
Cheng Kou sat on the sofa, watching Su Yan pour water for her to drink, and picked up her cell phone which had been on silent mode to take a look.
Shen Yinran called her several times and sent her WeChat messages. Cheng Kou suddenly remembered something she had forgotten.
Su Yan put the glass of water on the coffee table, and saw Cheng Kou frowning at his phone, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Cheng Kou clutched his phone, his expression a little serious, and said seriously, "Su Yan, I'm going on a business trip for a week starting tomorrow."
A week of separation is undoubtedly long and difficult for lovers who have just confirmed their relationship.
Su Yan frowned and asked her, "Can't you change the time?"
Cheng Kou shook his head.
The business trip was booked long ago, and the location was also her hometown, the city where she went to university - City S.
Cheng Kou sighed. It was so late, and it was useless to say anything. She looked at the time and thought it was time for her to go home. Because of what happened with Su Yan in the past few days, she had completely forgotten about the business trip, so she hadn't packed her luggage yet.
Cheng Kou stood up, but Su Yan grabbed her wrist. She turned around and looked at him in confusion.
Su Yan stood up, but did not loosen his hand. He approached and said, "Shouldn't you... um, say something?"
His voice was low, like tickling her heart, and his handsome face was close at hand, his bright eyes full of temptation.
Before Cheng Kou could say anything, Su Yan stepped back, stood up straight and looked at her intently.
Cheng Kou stood on tiptoe just enough to touch his lips. She made up her mind, closed her eyes and kissed him.
Su Yan put his arms around her waist, supported her soft body, and took over the initiative.
Cheng Kou thought that people who had never been in love would probably never understand the sweetness of love, otherwise how could a kiss between four lips make people so irresistible.
The shock this second kiss brought to them was no less than the first one, on the contrary, it was even better than the first one.
Perhaps because of the mutual understanding, the entanglement between lips and teeth became particularly lingering, and the strands of affection seemed to reach the deepest part of the heart.
It seemed like a century had passed before Su Yan let go of Cheng Kou and held her body in his arms.
Su Yan said in a muffled voice, "I really want to call Lu Hanting now and ask him to change someone."
Cheng Kou gasped in his arms, feeling sweet in her heart. Perhaps because of the tiptoeing posture just now, her legs were a little weak now, and she leaned on Su Yan with all her heart and soul. This feeling of entrusting all her weight to the one she loved was too wonderful. Cheng Kou didn't want to let him go, she just wanted to hold him forever.
Finally, Su Yan regained his senses first. He let go of the person in his arms and bent down to help her tidy up her messy hair.
Cheng Kou was about to go home, and Su Yan stood at the door of his house and watched her go.
Cheng Kou took out the key and opened the door. The moment the lock was unlocked, she suddenly looked back. Sure enough, Su Yan was standing there with a handsome face, looking at her with a smile. She raised her lips, her eyes gradually warmed up, and she quickly ran over to kiss his white jade cheek.
The next morning, Su Yan personally drove Cheng Kou and Shen Yinran to the airport and sent them on the plane.
Shen Yinran was sitting in the aisle. She turned to look at Cheng Kou, who was obviously sleepy, and poked her, "Koubao, what time did you come back last night?"
Cheng Kou yawned, almost crying from how sleepy she was. "It's quite early."
"Anyway, it must be after I fell asleep." Shen Yinran glanced at Cheng Kou's face with distrust, as if trying to find some clues.
"Who told you to go to bed so early?" Cheng Kou took out the small mirror he carried with him from his backpack, saw the dark blue color under his eyes, and sighed.
Shen Yinran asked curiously, "How is the progress between you and Su Yan? How far have you come?"
Cheng Kou turned his head away, closed his mouth and refused to answer her question.
Cheng Kou and Shen Yinran went to S City Normal College for an interview and stayed in a student dormitory. The accommodation conditions were not very good. The dormitory building here was old and looked like it had not been maintained for a long time. The bed was an ordinary bunk bed, and it would creak when you turned over on it.
At night, Cheng Kou wrote slower than Shen Yinran, so he had to wash up alone after she went to bed. There was no light in the public bathroom, it was gloomy, and the window was broken, barely patched with tape. Cheng Kou washed up quickly and silently, returned to the bed, thought for a while, took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Su Yan, with a hint of coquettishness in his words.
"The bathroom is dark, I'm scared."
Su Yan didn't like sending text messages. When she saw this message, she wanted to call back directly. But then she thought that the other people she lived with might be asleep at this time, so she patiently replied slowly.
"There won't be any ghosts, don't be afraid."
"I'm not afraid of ghosts!" followed by an angry expression.
Su Yan leaned on the bed, staring at the six short words, as if he could see Cheng Kou angrily correcting him.
He closed his eyes, and an impulse in his heart urged him to make the next decision.
