The corridor was very quiet, with only the sound of Jiang Tu's steady footsteps. Zhu Xingyao hugged his neck and looked at him intently. When they reached the fifth floor, Zhu Xingyao raised her hand to touch the sweat on his chin. After a slight struggle, she said distressedly, "Put me down. Just lead me up." Although she was thin, her winter clothes were thick, and she had a lot of things in her bag, so she must have weighed at least 100 kilograms.
Jiang Tu lifted her up and looked down at her: "I said I'll carry you up this time."
He lifted his foot and continued to walk upwards.
Zhu Xingyao bit her lip, and after a while, she leaned over and kissed him on the lips.
Jiang Tu paused and looked down at her. Zhu Xingyao smiled and said, "This is a reward for you."
Along the way, Zhu Xingyao rewarded him three times, once every five floors.
Jiang Tu carried her to the door of the house, panting and lowering his head: "Open the door."
Zhu Xingyao pressed the code to open the door, and Jiang Tu carried her in. He sat down on the sofa. Zhu Xingyao took a few tissues from the coffee table, kicked off his shoes, turned around, and sat on his legs. Jiang Tu leaned back on the sofa with his head slightly tilted, closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing, his chest rising and falling.
She wiped his sweat carefully, and seeing his Adam's apple moving with his breathing, she suddenly remembered what happened that night. She slowed down her movements, and inexplicably felt a little dry in her mouth. She leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Brother Tu, do you still have strength?"
Jiang Tu opened his eyes, turned to look at her, and suddenly smiled.
That smile was a bit wicked. Zhu Xingyao had never seen him smile like that before. She blushed and lowered her head, then climbed off his legs and said in an attempt to cover up her mistake, "I'll go get you a glass of water..." She flirted with him and ran away quickly.
Jiang Tu followed her back with his eyes, took a breath, stood up and took off his coat. Zhu Xingyao stood in the kitchen, covered her burning face, took out his water cup from the glass cabinet, went back to the living room and handed him the cup.
Jiang Tu finished drinking the water and put down the cup: "I'll go down and help you with your luggage."
Zhu Xingyao carried his coat back to the bedroom. She saw that the bed in the bedroom had really been changed to a cushioned one. She stood at the door in a daze, her face flushed. After a while, she took his pajamas and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Jiang Tu came back with a suitcase. Hearing the sound of water in the bathroom, he walked to the door and said, "If you need anything, I'll get it for you."
Zhu Xingyao didn’t wear any makeup today and didn’t need to remove it. She used his shower gel, which had a very light scent. She said nervously, “No need…” She remembered reading a novel by Lin Jiayu before. The male protagonist in the novel would break into the bathroom when the female protagonist was taking a shower. Jiang Tu shouldn’t do that, right
She bit her lip, ran over and locked the door while foaming at the mouth.
Click—
A sound.
Jiang Tu just turned around, paused, and looked back at the closed door.
Is she guarding against him
Jiang Tu went to another bathroom to take a shower. After coming out, he answered a phone call and went to the study to reply to two emails.
Half an hour later, he returned to the bedroom. Zhu Xingyao was sitting on the bed and texting Lin Jiayu on WeChat. The famous screenwriter Tang Xin that Li Xixi mentioned two days ago came to Jiangcheng and asked Lin Jiayu to have dinner. Tang Xin said, "I had a crush on my husband for four years. I really understand the feeling of a crush. I really like the book Waiting for the Stars."
She was very sincere and said a lot. Lin Jiayu was almost convinced by her. She asked Zhu Xingyao: "Xingxing, can you help me ask Jiang Tu what he thinks? Just find out..."
Zhu Xingyao looked up at Jiang Tu. He put his glasses on the table and walked over.
She looked into his dark eyes and quickly replied to Lin Jiayu: "Okay."
Jiang Tu turned off the lights, leaving only a dim desk lamp.
He sat down next to Zhu Xingyao and held her on his lap. He buried his head in the crook of her neck and asked in a low voice, "Do you like wearing my clothes?"
Zhu Xingyao sat on his lap, buried in his arms, and whispered, "You like me to wear it." She felt the buttons on her collar being undone, and was afraid that she would be unable to speak later, so she quickly said, "Brother Tu, is Jiayu's book...what can she do with it? Will you care about it anyway?"
"Um?"
Jiang Tu looked up and asked in a low voice: "What does she want to do?"
Zhu Xingyao's memory of this incident was mostly pain. She was still very nervous, her body tense. The strange thing was that wherever his fingers touched, that place began to soften. Zhu Xingyao was picked up by him, and two sets of pajamas fell on the side of the bed. She knelt on both sides, holding his shoulders, her voice trembling with her legs: "She... someone wants to buy the film and television copyright... Xixi and I both think it's okay. She was afraid that you would be angry..." She bit her lip fiercely and buried her face in his shoulder with a red face.
Jiang Tu didn't know whether he didn't want to care anymore or he was lost in thought at that moment and didn't hear her words. He didn't answer, but looked down, his eyes slightly red. He whispered in her ear: "Try it yourself?"
Zhu Xingyao was stunned. She bit her lips and her ears turned red.
How to try it
Zhu Xingyao was held by Jiang Tu's waist and slowly sat down. She frowned, her eyes reddened, and looked up at him. Jiang Tu leaned against the head of the bed and looked at her. Veins climbed on his cold, slender neck, and his eyes were dark and thick. She felt that she would melt if he looked at her for one more second.
But, she really likes this kind of journey.
Sexy, no longer indifferent.
It seemed that only at this moment would he put aside his past indifference and become obsessed.
Just obsessed with her.
The next day, Christmas Eve.
Zhu Xingyao sent a message to Lin Jiayu: "Jiang Tu's silence should mean he has accepted your decision."
After Lin Jiayu received the message, she sent a message to Lu Ji. The last message they had exchanged was the one he had sent her: "Stand up." She asked, "Lu Ji, do you mind if this book is made into a movie?"
Waited for more than half an hour.
Lu Ji: "I told you, this is your book."
Lin Jiayu was silent for a moment, then replied: "I will give you a red envelope when I get the money. After all, you have been scolded a lot."
After a long time, Lu Ji replied with one word: "OK."
In the afternoon, Jiang Tu took Zhu Xingyao out. When they were going downstairs, Jiang Tu pulled her to the safety passage. Zhu Xingyao looked up and looked at him for help. Jiang Tu held her hand tightly and said, "I'll hold your hand. Don't be afraid."
Zhu Xingyao's legs felt weak, she held Jiang Tu's hand tightly and crawled down step by step like a snail.
A few minutes later, she looked up at him and whispered, "Brother Tu..."
Jiang Tu said: "No, go by yourself."
When they reached the 10th floor, Jiang Tu stood at the bottom of the stairs, held her face and kissed her on the lips, whispering, "Reward." Zhu Xingyao was stunned for a moment, her face flushed, "You imitate me..."
Jiang Tu smiled: "Yeah."
It took Zhu Xingyao nearly 20 minutes to walk from the 15th floor to the basement floor, and she got three rewards. If Jiang Tu accompanied her every time she took the safety passage, it wouldn't be so scary.
After the car drove out of the community, Zhu Xingyao suddenly remembered to ask: "Where are we going? It's very crowded during this kind of festival, and there are a lot of people..." They have been quite popular recently, so they might be watched.
Jiang Tu put his hands on the steering wheel and said suddenly, "Let's buy a house."
Zhu Xingyao exclaimed and looked at him in astonishment.
The car stopped at a red light, and Jiang Tu turned to look at her: "The current house belongs to the company. I have never bought a house before. Let's go buy a house. We will move to another place in the future. The bathroom in the master bedroom is a bit small and can't fit a big bathtub like the one in your room."
Zhu Xingyao felt warm in her heart and was so moved that she wanted to cry. She looked at him and said softly, "Brother Tu, you don't have to accommodate me like this. It's good like this now."
Jiang Tu looked at her and said, "I'll buy it for you when we get married."
Zhu Xingyao was stunned, but Jiang Tu had already calmly turned around, looked straight ahead, and drove out.
Zhu Xingyao felt her heart relax a little and became completely soft. She suddenly understood clearly that she should accept whatever Jiang Tu wanted to do or give her. Refusing would make him feel uncomfortable.
The house that Jiangtu is interested in is near the Ho-Shi Stadium, a large flat of more than 250 square meters.
Jiang Tu had already paid the deposit, and he took Zhu Xingyao there to handle the formalities and sign the documents.
Coincidentally, the person who helped them with the paperwork was their classmate Zhou Xiaoyu. Zhou Xiaoyu asked enviously: "Are you really planning to get married?" At that time, Jiang Tu said in class that he would invite everyone to the wedding banquet.
Zhu Xingyao turned around and looked at Jiangtu.
Jiang Tu looked calm: "Almost."
Zhu Xingyao lowered her head and smiled. Zhou Xiaoyu looked at her enviously: "That's great."
The procedure was completed quickly, in just over an hour.
Zhu Xingyao now has one more property under his name.
As soon as they left, Zhou Xiaoyu took out her phone and quickly sent a message in the class group: "Jiang Tu and Zhu Xingyao have bought a wedding house, everyone prepare the red envelopes, it's almost time for the wedding wine!"
The class was shocked.
The student council member asked, "Really? So fast?"
Zhou Xiaoyu: "Of course it's true, they just left."
Zhou Xiaoyu sent a secretly taken photo to the group.
"So, you even bought a wedding house?"
In the evening, after Li Xixi finished work, she saw the group message and called immediately.
Zhu Xingyao smiled and said, "Probably."
Li Xixi said: "Did he propose?"
Zhu Xingyao was stunned: "No... I don't think proposing is very important." She thought for a moment and then said, "But Jiang Tu should propose, right? After all..."
"After all, he loves you so much! In high school, he even had a whole star-shaped lantern to express his love for you." Li Xixi was very excited. "A proposal is inevitable. If it's missing, then don't get married. Let me think about it, maybe he will wait for Valentine's Day."
Zhu Xingyao felt that what Li Xixi said made sense.
She suddenly felt a little excited.
At midnight on January 1, 2018, Xu Xiangyang sent a message to the class: "Happy New Year, I wish everyone a better year."
The group was lively for a while as people sent blessings to each other.
Zhu Xingyao's period came and she felt uncomfortable in her stomach. She lay on the pillow and felt sleepy. Jiang Tu's phone, which was placed next to the pillow, flashed a few times. She took a look and saw a blessing from Ding Xiang on the screen: "Brother Tu, I wish you and your goddess happiness and get married soon."
Pause for one second.
Ding Xiang sent another message: "Zhou Xiaoyu said you bought a wedding house, so will you propose on your birthday?"
Zhu Xingyao was stunned for a moment.
Will Jiang Tu propose on his birthday
The door was pushed open and Jiang Tu came in with a cup of ginger tea. Zhu Xingyao quickly turned around and pretended not to see anything.
A few days later, Zhu Xingyao went to Beijing to shoot a commercial, and Lin Jiayu also went with him. Lin Jiayu went to attend a script meeting. Tang Xin acted decisively, and with the support of Time Pictures, the project team was established as soon as it was announced, at an astonishing speed.
The script adaptation of "Waiting for the Stars" has begun.
The two of them were sitting next to each other. Zhu Xingyao turned to look at her and asked, "So you have been in Beijing all this time?"
Lin Jiayu nodded, and she came over with a smile, "Can you tell me the details of your love with Jiang Tu? Give our crew some inspiration."
Zhu Xingyao blinked: "What details do you want to hear?"
Lin Jiayu said meaningfully: "If you are willing to talk, I can listen to anything."
"Jiang Tu might want to propose to me on my birthday." Zhu Xingyao felt like she had made a mistake. She lowered her head and whispered in Lin Jiayu's ear, "Before, he came to my house for dinner, and I asked him what birthday gift he wanted. He said he wanted me, and I thought... he meant he wanted to have sex with me. Now that I think about it, Jiang Tu's personality shouldn't have been such that he would say that kind of thing that day. He probably meant he wanted to get married..."
Lin Jiayu was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter.
Zhu Xingyao blushed with embarrassment. She held her face and sighed, "Don't laugh. I feel embarrassed just thinking about it."
"Then he made a good deal, he got the girl, the proposal was just a ceremony." Lin Jiayu still smiled, "Originally I might not be able to come back for his birthday, but now that you mentioned it, I will definitely come back to witness it."
On January 19, Li Xixi brought the team back to Jiangcheng to prepare for the concert. Lin Jiayu also came back with them. The group met in a restaurant box. Ding Xiang was supported by his wife and walked in with a cane. He glanced at everyone and smiled, "You are here so early, it seems like we have returned to ten years ago. Oh, no, Jiang Lu is not here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Lu pushed the door open, followed by Lao Yuan. The two met outside the door.
Jiang Lu sat down next to Lin Jiayu and asked in a low voice: "Are you saying that my brother is going to propose tonight?" He originally couldn't come because of something, but Lin Jiayu said that her brother was going to propose, so he had to come and join in the fun.
Lin Jiayu nodded: "Yes, it definitely won't be here, probably at the club at night."
Zhu Xingyao was a little nervous all night, she didn't know when Jiang Tu would propose to her. Jiang Tu lowered his head and approached: "What's wrong? You seem absent-minded."
Zhu Xingyao smiled and said, "Nothing... I was listening to Xixi singing."
She couldn't say she was waiting for him to propose.
Li Xixi also felt strange. It was almost past midnight, so why hadn’t he come yet
She went to ask Ding Xiang, who was confused: "No, Brother Tu wanted to ask me for help before, but then he said wait a minute, there's no rush. I asked him on New Year's Day, and he said there's no rush, it'll take some time."
Li Xixi pulled Zhu Xingyao to the bathroom. Zhu Xingyao was also confused after hearing what she said. She stammered, "Did I make a mistake?"
Li Xixi pinched her face: "You seem very lost? Isn't it good to be in love? Why get married!"
Zhu Xingyao shook his head: "I'm not disappointed..."
I just think that Jiang Tu might have changed his plan to accommodate her.
At night, Jiang Tu treated her as a birthday present and opened it over and over again.
The next day at noon, Zhu Xingyao woke up and Jiang Tu had already gone to the company. She sent the laundry downstairs and opened the door to let him in. During this period, she and Jiang Tu were almost living together. Every time she came back from a performance, she would come back here first. Now there are many of her things scattered around his house, most of which are clothes.
Zhu Xingyao was planning to tidy up her wardrobe. She took out Jiang Tu's suits one by one and placed them on the bed. Suddenly, her hand paused. There was a bulge in the pocket of the suit, as if something was hidden. She reached out her hand in confusion and took out an exquisite black brocade box.
She pursed her lips and opened them.
Inside was a diamond ring.
