After walking a long way, Qiao Yanli's face was still quite ugly.
It was gloomy, as if there was a layer of ice.
His pace was so fast that Xia Yanxi had to trot to keep up with him.
With her little hand, she gently pulled off his sleeve.
Qiao Yanli stopped and looked at her with his long, narrow and deep black eyes.
Xia Yanxi's pair of clear black and white apricot eyes were sparkling. Looking at her expression, she said with a hint of flattery, "Yanli... please don't be angry, okay?"
When his face was cold and serious, his aura was so strong that she was a little frightened.
Qiao Yanli was not angry with Xia Yanxi, he just felt that Bai Wenxuan had gone too far. He knew Xia Yanxi was already his wife, but he still pestered her over and over again. He simply didn't take him seriously!
Qiao Yanli pursed her thin lips and said nothing.
Seeing this, Xia Yanxi's eyes moved, "To calm your nerves, would you like to treat you to the most unique restaurant in the town for lunch?"
Qiao Yanli looked at the young girl in front of him. The bright sunshine hit her pretty and delicate face, coating her with a warm halo. She had a pleasing look, was well-behaved and sweet, which made people look at her. , inexplicably soft-hearted.
Qiao Yanli raised his white and elegant hand and patted Xia Yanxi's head gently. His sharp lines became soft and soft, "Did I scare you by getting angry just now?"
Seeing that he was finally not angry anymore, Xia Yanxi showed a flower-like smile on her pretty face, "No, on the contrary, I think it's my fault. If I hadn't said those angry words yesterday, I wouldn't have let Bai Wenxuan mistakenly think that I was right." He’s still interesting.”
Qiao Yanli liked Xia Yanxi's non-commercial character. Although her relationship with Bai Wenxuan for twenty years could not be completely forgotten overnight, she did not get entangled with Bai Wenxuan, nor did she give him anything. A chance to be close to her heart again.
Qiao Yanli put his arms around Xia Yanxi's slender shoulders, hugged her into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "If you don't want to be unhappy, let's go and take my husband for a walk again?"
Xia Yanxi raised her eyebrows and smiled sweetly, "Okay."
Neither of them talked about the misunderstanding that occurred some time ago, nor did they mention the estrangement between Bai Wenxuan and Bai Wenxuan. They held hands and walked around the quaint town while talking and laughing.
The atmosphere was so warm and beautiful that even after the two separated many years later, Xia Yanxi still recalled this scene.
…
After lunch, the two said goodbye to their grandmother. Qiao Yan left the car and drove Xia Yanxi out of Fengwei Town. When leaving, grandma packed a lot of pickles she made for Xia Yanxi and Qiao Yanli. Looking through the rearview mirror and looking at her grandmother standing on the side of the road waving to them, Xia Yanxi's nose felt sore and she wanted to cry.
It would be great if brother Yichen was still alive, at least grandma wouldn't be so lonely...
The car turned a corner, and her grandma's slightly rickety figure disappeared from sight. Xia Yanxi couldn't hold it back any longer, and tears fell from her eyes.
Qiao Yanli released a big hand that was on the steering wheel. He wrapped Xia Yanxi's small hand tightly and said in a soft voice, "If you miss grandma one day, I will drive you here myself."
Xia Yanxi sniffed her red nose, looked at Qiao Yanli with tearful eyes, and said in a soft voice, "Yanli, can you tell me the truth? Why are you so kind to me?" In this world, It was impossible to be nice without reason. She really couldn't figure out why Qiao Yanli was nice to her.
Qiao Yanli narrowed his deep eyes slightly, looking at her with complex emotions that she couldn't understand, "I just want to be nice to Mrs. Qiao, there is no reason."
Xia Yanxi bit her lip, "If one day I discover that your kindness to me has a purpose, I will never forgive you again..."
After hearing her words, Qiao Yanli stiffened, and the color in his eyes became darker and more complex.
