The snow didn't fall very much yesterday, and it stopped in the middle of the night.
When the sun rose in the morning, the thin layer of snow on the ground melted away.
The weather was fine today, and the villa had guests early in the morning. Qin Fenghang's family of four were all neatly dressed and sitting in the living room, even though his wife and son came back in the middle of the night and just hadn't slept for two hours.
"Mr. Jiang, please." Qin Fenghang smiled and poured tea for Jiang Chengzhou himself. His attentive appearance made a pair of children who were arrogant and accustomed to relying on him quite uncomfortable.
Jiang Chengzhou looked around and didn't see Qin Lang's figure. He picked up the teacup and asked casually, "Did Jiang come too early for not saying hello in advance?"
"How could it be?" Qin Fenghang still smiled and glared at his son and daughter without a trace.
Jiang Chengzhou responded vaguely, and said, "It's still early, Xiao Lang hasn't gotten up yet?"
Although the clothes Qin Lang brought back yesterday belonged to Jiang Chengzhou, Qin Fenghang didn't think that Jiang Chengzhou really came to see some friend and nephew early this morning. But don't forget, their group still has cooperation with Jiang Chengzhou, otherwise why did Jiang Chengzhou return to City B
Therefore, Jiang Chengzhou mentioned Qin Lang at this time. Although Qin Fenghang felt that Jiang Chengzhou directly ignored his two children, it was a little shameful, but the performance of his two little things was really bad, and he didn't say much.
He beckoned the housekeeper to wake up Qin Lang, but was interrupted by Jiang Chengzhou.
Jiang Chengzhou kept a faint smile on his face, which softened his usual suffocation. At first glance, he really looked like some kind-hearted person, "No, it's a rare holiday, wait for him to rest well."
"Haha, yes." Qin Fenghang laughed dryly.
The eldest son rolled his eyes at his flattering father, hehe, Qin Lang can sleep, but he can't? Why do you pull him up? Don't even look at the person who introduced him. Geez, who is this person!
Qin Fenghang's wife attended a cocktail party some time ago. She had also seen Jiang Chengzhou. Seeing the scene was a little embarrassing, she asked Jiang Chengzhou: "Mr. Jiang, have you eaten breakfast yet? Auntie is almost ready, Xiaolang still Didn't get up, why don't we have breakfast together?"
Yes, have breakfast and talk about this new collaboration. Qin Fenghang and his wife looked at each other tacitly.
Jiang Chengzhou continued drinking tea and said slowly, "No, thank you."
"..." The family feels a little embarrassed when you look at me and I look at you. Jiang Chengzhou said no, even if they were hungry, let Jiang Chengzhou watch their family eat breakfast, right
Qin Fenghang didn't dare to neglect Jiang Chengzhou, so he found a topic to chat with him, but Jiang Chengzhou always lacked interest, which made the atmosphere awkward.
Until, Qin Lang finally went downstairs.
Qin Lang was obviously stunned when he saw Jiang Chengzhou, "Uncle Jiang, good morning."
The young man cleaned up very cleanly, and he didn't have the sleepy appearance of the two who were sitting on the sofa being pulled out of the bed ahead of time and listening to a long period of boring topics in the adult world. Coupled with his clear and clean voice, Jiang Chengzhou finally laughed.
The subordinate looked at his wink, and handed over to the butler a few luxury bags that he had been carrying in his hand as soon as he entered Qin's house.
"Xiao Lang, I forgot yesterday, Merry Christmas." Jiang Chengzhou bent his peach eyes, restraining his usual gloom and sharpness. A mature man has a unique charm. It is obviously just a simple smile, but it is like a huge psychedelic vortex, constantly attracting people.
Standing on the stairs, Qin Lang was stunned for a second. He looked at the gifts, and at the dark and smelly faces of his uncle's family. He smiled obediently, "Thank you, Uncle Jiang."
Qin Fenghang's family couldn't hide their expressions even if they wanted to. They thought that what Jiang Chengzhou's subordinates were carrying were ordinary greetings, but they didn't give them directly, and they were embarrassed to ask.
As a result, people came for only one purpose, that is, to see Qin Lang, and they didn't take him as the head of the family at all. The cooperation of chat is also casual and perfunctory, without giving any face.
Not to mention now that he heard Jiang Chengzhou invited Qin Lang out to have breakfast together, his face was burning with pain.
Eighteen years old, after all, he is still a child who has just come of age. When Qin Lang went out, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly when he thought of how his uncle's family was shaking with anger.
Of course, he didn't think that Jiang Chengzhou would be so simple. So at breakfast, he asked straight to the point, "Uncle Jiang, why are you helping me?"
Probably because of these two meetings, Jiang Chengzhou's attitude towards him was gentle enough, not as scary as in the legends, plus he was in a better mood, he suddenly became more courageous, and even dared to ask Jiang Chengzhou directly.
Jiang Chengzhou generalized: "Your father once helped me a little."
Qin Lang nodded clearly and didn't ask any more questions.
Jiang Chengzhou waited for him to finish eating, and then asked him, "You are eighteen years old now, what are your plans?"
The young man was silent, he knew that he was asking about his parents' inheritance, and at the same time he was also vigilant. He who asked such a question was an unfamiliar uncle who was rumored to be ruthless.
Jiang Chengzhou smiled, "You shouldn't give up what your parents left you. But your uncle probably won't either. Your little affection is probably not valuable enough."
Qin Lang pursed his lips, "What does Uncle Jiang mean?"
Jiang Chengzhou leaned on the back of the chair and glanced at Qin Lang's defensive posture. He seemed to find it interesting, and his smile was softer than before: "I suggest you pay attention to safety recently."
The bloody words are obviously hidden, but they are only simple words that the elders care about on weekdays.
Qin Lang bit his lip, he didn't think about that possibility. On the day of his eighteenth birthday, the inheritance lawyer approached him and asked him what he meant, and vaguely reminded him that it was best to follow his uncle's will for the time being.
But how could Qin Lang be willing? The group is the result of his parents' hard work together, how can he give it to others
Jiang Chengzhou observed all his expressions, and calmly read the prepared lines: "I can help you, and I can help you get back what belongs to you."
Qin Lang asked calmly, "What about the price?"
Jiang Chengzhou showed an extremely gentle smile: "Marry me."
The boy opposite opened his eyes instantly, his face full of disbelief.
Jiang Chengzhou was not in a hurry, waiting for him to slow down.
"You...why are you..." The boy was still puzzled and a little suspicious. He frowned and looked at Jiang Chengzhou again, obviously not believing the possibility that this man would suddenly fall in love with him.
Jiang Chengzhou didn't follow the usual domineering president's routine, and smiled like a gentleman: "This is not a deal, but my sincerity. You can think about it slowly. Before you agree, I will send someone to not affect your life. to protect your safety.”
Qin Lang was still frowning tightly, and it was definitely impossible to refuse directly. He has nothing in his hands now. When his father was still alive, Jiang Chengzhou's power should not be underestimated. Now he has no high school students even bodyguards to deal with. It's as simple as stepping on an ant.
So, he could only choose to "consider" and expressed his shock at the uncle's straightforwardness.
After Qin Lang left, Jiang Chengzhou said triumphantly with his system: "System, was I just domineering? Am I completely different from those domineering CEOs who are coquettish and bitchy?" Obviously, he didn't feel that he was only similar to a pervert, and he had a fascination. confidence.
Zero Zero: "..." Master, are you sure you want me to say it
Twenty-five: Oh, it's also my zero-zero, and I don't have the skill of attacking the host.
Zero Zero is a very good AI. He understands what kind of assistance the host needs, and will help the host analyze the character and hobbies of the target character, but he will not directly advise the host what to do or what kind of evaluation to give.
In short, he only needs to make the word "useful" in the consciousness of the host.
If the host doesn't like the cute system, then he is quiet; if the host likes it, then he is lively and very versatile.
At the beginning of the world, every host had a chance to get a golden finger. After analyzing the personality characteristics and hobbies of the two, he chose several options for Jiang Chengzhou.
Jiang Chengzhou chose cooking.
Jiang Chengzhou started chasing after people in a low-key manner after he and Qin Lang bluntly expressed his desire to marry that day.
Qin Lang is a senior in high school. There are not many classes left in this semester, and the winter vacation is coming soon.
Qin Lang was studying in an international aristocratic college. Even in the third year of high school, there was no such thing as oppressing students' holidays. After all, like these young masters and daughters, who really want to study after the holiday, some people at home ask teachers for extracurricular tutoring.
Qin Lang originally had it, but the other two in the family didn't like to learn, and they were afraid that the more he learned, the better, so he dismissed those teachers for various reasons at the age of seventeen. It sounds ridiculous, but a little chilling.
At first Qin Lang really thought it was the teacher's fault, but he gradually realized that he didn't take the initiative to ask the teacher.
Qin Lang is a dormitory student, and the reason why he doesn't want to go back every day is obvious. One is that he will not be like other classmates. Every day after school, his driver or parents will come to pick him up; the other is that no one will give him a smile when he goes back to the house.
But after school this Friday, someone was waiting there early outside the school. A black car was parked in the most conspicuous position, and the rear window was rolled down most of the way. Qin Lang saw at a glance the man inside who was looking intently at something.
Although the last conversation, he still thinks it is ridiculous, but now that there is such a person waiting there, the mood at this moment cannot be calm.
Qin Lang was greeted by Jiang Chengzhou's subordinates into the car, and found that the man seemed to be dealing with business affairs, so he simply said hello.
"Well," Jiang Chengzhou responded. Although he was still looking at the notebook, he took a cup from the side and handed it to Qin Lang, "Hot milk, warm your hands."
Qin Lang took it, his eyes moved slightly, and he said thank you softly.
Since his parents died, Jiang Chengzhou was the first one who could pick him up at the school gate and give him a cup of hot milk. Whether it is superficial or sincere, at least this moment, he is happy.
Jiang Chengzhou took the people home and let Qin Lang watch TV and play games, or look around, while he went to the kitchen to cook.
The kitchen is open, and Qin Lang can see his every move. The bodyguards didn't come in with them, the huge apartment was just the two of them.
This is Jiang Chengzhou's new purchase. It is a high-end apartment with a jump floor. Upstairs is the study and the area divided for Qin Lang. There are only two bedrooms, one belonging to Jiang Chengzhou and one belonging to Qin Lang.
Qin Lang has lived in spacious manor villas and the like since he was a child, so a warmer-looking apartment like this feels a little fresh. Especially the study area prepared for him on the second floor, various musical instruments, drawing tools, and a gym that both of them can use.
All the furnishings and decorations in this apartment were arranged by Jiang Chengzhou. He just wants to let the little guy realize his expectations for the future and believe that he can give him a warm home again.
Not to mention whether Qin Lang will like it or not, but he believes that he will definitely be moved, especially in the past two years with no temperature, it was already numb and cold, and suddenly someone gave him a warm light. Even if it's fake, you'll want to reach out and grab it.
Jiang Chengzhou took off his apron and shouted upstairs, "Xiao Lang, come down to eat."
Qin Lang just walked to the stairs and could see the smile in Jiang Chengzhou's eyes when he saw him. It's very strange, obviously they don't know each other, obviously he still thinks this man is very dangerous, but he wants to try his craftsmanship, whether it is as sweet as he imagined.
During the meal, Jiang Chengzhou asked Qin Lang about his studies, left the key here to Qin Lang, and left after eating.
Qin Lang lived in this apartment. Jiang Chengzhou would accompany him to eat three meals a day. Breakfast is usually bought, lunch and dinner, he mostly do it himself.
He also hired a few teachers for Qin Lang, who did not teach high school courses, but business management, finance, and various courses that Qin Lang might need to learn after taking over the group in the future.
Jiang Chengzhou and Qin Lang got along like this for a month. He never stayed in the apartment overnight, nor did anything to Qin Lang. He really took care of him like an elder.
It seemed that both of them had forgotten the phrase "marry me", no one mentioned it, and no one expressed it.
