Chapter 343 Good News
As midnight passed, the New Year's bell rang, and Zhao Ruoming's first and last New Year in the other world finally arrived.
Jiang Huiyi sat alone at the dining table, listening to the clock striking twelve. The tear that had been hanging in the air for a long time finally slid down slowly.
She started preparing this New Year's Eve dinner at four o'clock in the afternoon.
She was busy in the kitchen happily, not letting anyone interfere with the cooking process. - Wu Ma went home to celebrate the New Year with her family, and the other servants also had their New Year holidays. In fact, only Jiang Huiyi could cook.
Duan Ye went to attend the campus dance, Duan Chengzhang was still working overtime on New Year's Eve, and only Duan Jizhi and Jiang Huiyi were at home.
In the past, the two of them would have been so happy that they would have forgotten what the world was, and they would have wanted to make every corner of this house bear the image of the two of them. But times have changed, and their moods have changed.
When Jiang Huiyi first started cooking, Duan Jizhi persuaded her that Duan Hongji was always busy at the end of the year and it was common for him not to come back for the New Year's Eve dinner. Why did Jiang Huiyi have to work so hard?
Jiang Huiyi didn't believe it. Or rather, she didn't want to believe it. She didn't believe that her luck was so bad that she couldn't even spend the most important day of the year with Duan Hongji. Duan Jizhi had no choice but to sigh and help Jiang Huiyi, washing vegetables and passing soy sauce.
Today, Duan Jizhi's words have finally come true.
Through her tearful eyes, Jiang Huiyi looked at the table full of dishes. Her cooking skills had improved a lot, at least she could make the food look edible.
Burnt fish, a medicinal version of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall made with a variety of Chinese medicinal materials specially tailored for the patient Duan Hongji, Dongpo pork with too much soy sauce, a giant lobster with its claws and fangs bared and its eyes open... and the dumplings that can be freely opened and closed in various shapes and sizes.
Although the appearance was ridiculous and the taste was questionable, Jiang Huiyi had undoubtedly put a lot of thought into this table of dishes.
From steaming hot to gradually cooling down, a layer of semi-solidified fat has now floated on the soup.
Just like Jiang Huiyi's heart, which has fallen from burning expectations to the current bone-chilling coldness.
Duan Jizhi felt sorry for her and tried to persuade Jiang Huiyi several times, "Huihui, why don't you eat first?" Jiang Huiyi refused every time.
The door of the Duan family finally opened, and someone walked into the restaurant!
Jiang Huiyi looked over expectantly - was it Duan Hongji who came back? !
She was disappointed. The person who came was not Duan Hongji, but Duan Ye.
Young Master Duan was as angry as a squirrel whose winter food supplies had been dug out. He sat down on a chair, scooped himself a big bowl of soup, and gulped it down!
"Eh..." Jiang Huiyi didn't even have time to say anything. She could only watch Duan Ye scoop up the cold soup in one gulp.
Young Master Duan frowned and smacked his lips, commenting, "Why does this soup smell like Chinese medicine?"
Jiang Huiyi: “…”
Jiang Huiyi took a deep breath and smiled, "That's specially made for your dad."
"Ah? Medicinal food..." Duan Ye suddenly realized something, raised his eyes and saw Jiang Huiyi, and said in surprise: "Uh...you are back?"
Duan Ye is not as thick-skinned as Duan Jizhi, nor does he have as stable a mentality as Duan Chengfang. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for him to call Jiang Huiyi's young face "mother".
Calling her sister is confusing the relationship between generations, and calling her mom is embarrassing. The fact that Young Master Duan is willing to call her "you" instead of "hi" is a great growth.
Jiang Huiyi was stunned, and she touched her face, then she realized that she had been crying secretly, and her tears had soaked her mask. Jiang Huiyi felt very uncomfortable, so she took off the mask.
Duan Ye put down his chopsticks awkwardly and asked in confusion: "You, are you coming back for the reunion dinner?"
Jiang Huiyi took a deep breath and said, "I was the one who made this meal."
"Oh oh." Duan Ye suddenly realized, "No wonder, I said Wu Ma's knife skills are not that bad."
Jiang Huiyi: “.”
Duan Ye is the only one in the family who knows nothing about Jiang Huiyi's incident. He doesn't know why Jiang Huiyi left the Duan family, nor does he know when Jiang Huiyi came back. Firstly, he doesn't care, and secondly, his brain capacity is not enough to support him to think about this issue.
These days, Duan Jizhi and Duan Hongji, not to mention Duan Chengfang, recognized Jiang Huiyi's identity when they first saw her wearing a mask. They just didn't say it out of consideration for everyone's face.
Only Duan Ye was still ignorant and blissfully thinking that Jiang Huiyi was an expert hired by the family to prepare medicinal food, and he would go to Duan Hongji from time to time to get a bite of food!
It was not until this moment that Duan Ye realized that “it turned out that you were the one who made medicinal food for my dad at home recently!”
With a speed as fast as Dan Ye's, he basically has to say goodbye to bicycles. Jiang Huiyi didn't argue with him and nodded weakly.
Duan Ye's circuit of thought was different from others. He felt embarrassed when he heard this: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I saw you walking around the house wearing a mask every day, and I suspected that you were a secret agent sent by the police!"
Jiang Huiyi had a relatively good understanding of Dan Ye's IQ and EQ. After hearing this, she tried to suppress her speech and changed the subject: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about these things. How was your night? You don't seem very happy?"
Which pot does not open which pot.
Duan Ye suddenly lost his temper: "Don't mention it."
"The styling I made for you is not up to standard?" Jiang Huiyi would not allow others to question her aesthetic taste, and she became anxious.
"No." Duan Ye said dejectedly, "Very handsome. When I first arrived at the dance, six girls invited me to dance. Even my mortal enemy Yan Feiyu asked me which stylist I hired."
Jiang Huiyi finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Isn't this a good thing?"
"It's pretty good." Duan Ye said dejectedly, "I thought, this must have fascinated Xiao Ming to death? But it turns out that this guy has no aesthetic taste at all! He would rather dance with a passerby dressed like a penguin than even look at me!"
Jiang Huiyi was shocked to hear that her carefully designed perfect makeup was defeated by the penguin costume. "What exactly is that costume? I heard that Pinguin! recently released a black and white dress. Could it be that the other person is wearing that?"
"What's with the ping-pong?" Duan Ye said angrily, "None of that. It's a down jacket I bought at a street stall. The price? One hundred yuan? I don't know."
Jiang Huiyi almost fainted. There must be another reason! It couldn't be that there was something wrong with her styling skills!
"Is the other person more handsome than you?"
Duan Ye picked up a bowl of dumplings angrily, picked up one and took a big bite.
Duan Ye ate the dumplings and said vaguely, "She's just average looking. She's as thin as a bean sprout. Zhao Xiaoming's aesthetic taste has been like that in his life... Mmm, the dumplings are really delicious, but they're a little cold."
Duan Ye's words were full of dark and petty jealousy, and anyone with a little bit of brains could hear it. If he said it to Duan Chengfang, he would only be laughed at. Fortunately, the person sitting in front of him was Jiang Huiyi, who put love first and was sentimental.
Jiang Huiyi, who is considered the twin of Duan Ye, believed this statement without hesitation and agreed, "Forget it, Duan Ye. Maybe your sweetheart just likes skinny girls? There are people who pursue fair, young and skinny boys."
Jiang Huiyi herself sneered at this kind of aesthetic. Dumplings should be eaten hot, and men should be strong. Jiang Huiyi likes men like Duan Hongji, who can run a horse on his shoulders and walk like a big black tower.
Dan Ye asked doubtfully, "Really? Although that passerby is a woman - but what you said makes sense. I guess I have to lose some weight after the New Year."
Wait. Girl?
Jiang Huiyi looked at Danye in shock.
Duan Ye didn't even understand the other person's sexual orientation, but he went to court her in such a heroic and confident manner?
No, no, no, what’s more important is that Duan Ye has clearly failed because of his gender, but he still refuses to give up and even plans to lose weight and try again after the new year?
Jiang Huiyi opened and closed her mouth, and her heart, which had been filled with sorrow because of Duan Hongji's absence, suddenly calmed down.
Compared with Duan Ye's journey of courtship, what were the little setbacks I encountered?
Perhaps what she lacked was Duan Ye's courage - it seemed that she had to be more proactive.
----
Duan Hongji worked until midnight and finally returned to Duan's house. After a quick wash, he went to bed.
That night.
Duan Hongji was lying alone in the bedroom, sleeping soundly.
With a creak, a figure pushed the door open and walked in.
Duan Hongji was so tired that he didn't even draw the curtains. The bright moonlight shone on Duan Hongji's face, casting a layer of silvery luster on him.
Jiang Huiyi slowly walked to Duan Hongji's bed.
Duan Hongji has a straight nose and long eyelashes, and his delicate facial features cast shadows of varying shades on his face.
Jiang Huiyi's cold fingers moved along the gray shadows, slowly stroked Duan Hongji's lips, and then moved up to his tightly closed eyes.
Jiang Huiyi didn't like Duan Hongji's lips because they always came out with harsh words.
Jiang Huiyi didn't like Duan Hongji's eyes because there was always a cold look in them.
Jiang Huiyi even disliked Duan Hongji's ears, because he always turned a deaf ear to her confessions; Jiang Huiyi disliked Duan Hongji's hair even more, because there were always spots of white hair on it from time to time, which made Jiang Huiyi feel heartbroken.
It is these things that Jiang Huiyi dislikes that make up Duan Hongji, the person Jiang Huiyi loves and hates and can't stop herself from loving.
Jiang Huiyi slowly bent down, closed her eyes, and tried to kiss those heartless lips...
Just when it was about to touch, Duan Hongji suddenly opened his eyes!
It's that indifferent, inorganic look again!
The instinct for danger in her bones forced Jiang Huiyi to take a step back and look at Duan Hongji in doubt.
Why does she feel... why does she feel that this is not Duan Hongji...
"Host, wake up, don't sleep anymore." 203 called out.
Zhao Ruoming's spirit body was shaken awake by 203, and he said tiredly, "Hmm?"
203: "Jiang Huiyi attacked at night."
This time Zhao Ruoming was really frightened awake and sat up immediately.
Duan Hongji turned on the light, and his indifferent eyes suddenly became clear, but his voice was still hoarse from just waking up from a deep sleep: "What are you doing here?"
"I...I..." Jiang Huiyi was so flustered that she didn't know what to do. "Let me take a look at your injury."
"My injury is almost healed." Duan Hongji pinched his nose.
The other party didn't seem surprised by Jiang Huiyi's appearance, which made Jiang Huiyi vaguely aware of something.
"You knew I was back, didn't you?"
Duan Hongji did not deny: "Yes."
Jiang Huiyi even breathed softly: "When did you recognize me?"
Duan Hongji said calmly: "The first time I saw you."
!!!
Jiang Huiyi couldn't help but walked forward and held the corner of Duan Hongji's quilt: "Then you haven't pointed it out these days, is it because you want to keep me...?"
Jiang Huiyi had not expected any answer to this question, because Duan Hongji was a vicious old crocodile. Who would have thought that he would look at Jiang Huiyi and nod: "That's right."
At that moment, Jiang Huiyi's heart was filled with thousands of flowers blooming one after another, and countless fish leaping out of the water. She could no longer hold back the urge to cry, and tears fell down!
Duan Hongji wants to keep her!
Her love was not a one-sided one. After a long struggle and fight (although she didn't know what she had struggled for), she finally heard the echo of love!
Duan Hongji got up from the bed, pulled his pajamas together, and walked to the drawer.
Jiang Huiyi's eyes were already blurred by tears, and she couldn't see clearly what Duan Hongji was doing. Fortunately, he quickly walked back to Jiang Huiyi.
Duan Hongji took out a few tissues and handed them to Jiang Huiyi, gently commanding: "Wipe your tears."
Jiang Huiyi took the tissue, wiped her tears, and choked with grievance: "You are always like this, like this..."
So gentle, yet so cruel.
"Have you wiped it dry?" Duan Hongji asked.
"Yeah." Jiang Huiyi threw down the tissue and was about to say something when she suddenly saw the thing in Duan Hongji's hand and was immediately struck by lightning!
It was a piece of paper. A piece of paper that looked very familiar, but was almost forgotten by Jiang Huiyi.
It was a fake marriage agreement that Duan Hongji signed with her on the first day she married into the Duan family.
"Now that you've wiped it clean, take a good look at this agreement." Duan Hongji handed the agreement to Jiang Huiyi, "Calculating the time, it's almost time for it to expire."
maturity.
Jiang Huiyi felt her brain buzzing and she almost didn't know what she was doing. She mechanically took the agreement.
The words were clearly written in black and white. Jiang Huiyi read the clauses one by one and suddenly realized that Duan Hongji strictly followed every clause.
Duan Hongji walked to the bedside and drew the curtains. The annoying moonlight was blocked outside the curtains, and he could no longer watch the tragedy and comedy inside the window.
"According to the time, our agreement still has more than three months left. You have violated many of the agreements over the past six months." Duan Hongji said calmly, with his back to Jiang Huiyi, "Fortunately, it's finally coming to an end."
Is it over?
So, who will repay the love she has given?
Duan Hongji, this despicable guy, bought her heart with this piece of rotten paper, and now he is going to throw it away like a worn-out shoe?
Jiang Huiyi was enveloped by a violent and desperate emotion. She felt her brain was congested and she could hardly stand.
Duan Hongji did not notice anything unusual about Jiang Huiyi, and continued, "You came just in time, just in time. I have good news to tell you..."
