She wanted to marry, and he was anxious
Chapter 19 Who Sent the Gift?
Ye Zhihan carefully opened the box, and inside lay a fountain pen quietly. The ink-blue pen body was like the deep night sky, and a small sapphire was inlaid on the pen cap, sparkling with charming luster in the afternoon sun.
She raised her head in surprise, her eyes sparkling brightly, "Thank you, brother, I like it very much."
"I was out of town on the day you came back home. This is my apology to you." Su Yunhuai's face was filled with a gentle smile, his eyes full of doting on his sister.
Ye Zhihan pouted embarrassedly, "I'm not that stingy."
Su Yunhuai gently touched her head as usual and said, "Remember to tell your family no matter what happens." His words were full of concern and love.
Because Su Yunhuai had work to do, he left the capital right after having lunch with Ye Zhihan.
At 5:30 in the afternoon, the setting sun was as red as blood, dyeing the sky orange and red.
A Rolls-Royce Phantom was parked steadily on the side of the road. Ji Hanzhou took out his mobile phone and sent a message to the person on WeChat: We're here.
Almost instantly, I received a reply from the other party.
Honey wife: Okay, I’ll be right down.
Ji Hanzhou's mouth corners slightly raised: No rush.
After a while, he saw her figure appear in his sight.
Ji Hanzhou got out of the car and opened the passenger door for her. He carefully protected her head and waited until she was safely seated before gently closing the door. Then, he walked around the car and sat in the driver's seat.
While fastening his seat belt, Ji Hanzhou tilted his head and asked gently, "Are you tired from work today?"
Ye Zhihan smiled and shook her head, her slightly curly hair swaying gently, "Not tired."
The car drove steadily towards Qinyaju, and the trees on both sides of the road retreated rapidly.
When Ye Zhihan came out just now, Ji Hanzhou noticed that she was holding a red sandalwood box. Judging from the shape and size, the thing inside should be a small item. Who gave it to her? Ji Hanzhou couldn't help but wonder.
Ji Hanzhou stared straight ahead and couldn't help but glance to the side from time to time.
You're right, she just smiled when she saw the box. Who gave it to her? She was so happy. She couldn't bear to let it go even after getting in the car.
Ji Hanzhou let out a long breath and loosened his tie irritably, causing Ye Zhihan to look over at him sideways.
"What's wrong with you?" Ye Zhihan asked softly.
Ji Hanzhou said in a slightly cold tone, "It's okay." But his heart was already in turmoil.
Ye Zhihan nodded. Yes, he had to deal with so many things every day, and he would always encounter some troubles, she thought.
Ye Zhihan turned his head to the window. The roses in the green bushes were in full bloom, like burning flames.
Ji Hanzhou couldn't help but glance out the window. What's so good about this? You're looking at the flowers instead of me. He secretly complained in his heart.
"Like flowers?" Ji Hanzhou's voice broke the brief silence.
Ye Zhihan turned around, her eyebrows curved, "Yeah, seeing flowers makes me feel much better."
Ji Hanzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, "That's easy. The backyard is empty, you can plant whatever you like."
"Build a greenhouse so that you can enjoy your favorite flowers all year round." His eyes were full of expectation. In other words, he hoped that she would be in a good mood every day of the year.
Listening to Ji Hanzhou's suggestion, Ye Zhihan's heart moved, and his eyes flashed with excitement, "Can we build another swing?"
Finally, he made a request to himself. Ji Hanzhou said happily: "Of course, you are the master of our home."
Because he was in a good mood, Ye Zhihan couldn't help but clench the rosewood box in his hand.
Seeing this scene, the corners of Ji Hanzhou's mouth that had just been raised disappeared, and the depression in his heart increased a little.
After returning to Qinyaju, Aunt Liu looked at the two people who came back together and was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
"Sir, your wife is back. The meal will be ready soon." Aunt Liu's voice was full of joy.
Ye Zhihan walked into the kitchen smelling the aroma of food, "Madam Liu, what delicious food did you cook? It smells so good!"
Ji Hanzhou was worried that she would get hurt, so he quickly followed her in, "Be careful, don't get burned again."
Last time she got accidentally scalded, although the wound was not very serious, Ji Hanzhou still felt a little scared every time he thought about it.
Ye Zhihan knew that Ji Hanzhou was concerned about her, so she smiled sweetly, said nothing, turned around and walked out of the kitchen.
Ji Hanzhou looked at her. The box had never left her hand since she got in the car. Now that she was home, she had to take it with her into the kitchen and put it aside when she sat on the sofa. Should she also take it with her when she eats later? Thinking of this, his face became even gloomier.
"It's time to eat." Aunt Liu brought the dishes to the table, and the aroma of the food instantly filled the entire restaurant.
Ye Zhihan stood up and walked to the dining table without taking the rosewood box.
Haha, it doesn't seem very important. Ji Hanzhou snorted in his heart.
Ji Hanzhou picked up the cup of water and was about to drink it when he saw Ye Zhihan, who had returned, pick up the lost rosewood box from the sofa and walk back to the restaurant.
Haha, very good. Ji Hanzhou drank the water in the cup in one gulp.
At the dinner table, he still picked up food for Ye Zhihan as usual, but Ye Zhihan could clearly sense that something was wrong with him.
"Ji Hanzhou, did you encounter something unhappy at work?" Ye Zhihan looked at him, his eyes full of concern.
"No." Ji Hanzhou's voice was still cold.
There was such a cold tone again, even though they were just talking about planting flowers in the backyard and everything was fine.
Ye Zhihan didn't like this kind of atmosphere, "Then why are you in a bad mood?"
Ji Hanzhou raised his head and looked at her, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, "Do I look like I'm in a bad mood?"
Are you in a good mood now? Ye Zhihan thought secretly in his heart.
Hearing his somewhat cold tone, Ye Zhihan was in no mood to ask any further questions.
"I'm done eating. I'll go upstairs first. You take your time eating." Ye Zhihan said as he picked up the rosewood box beside him and left the dining table.
Seeing this, Ji Hanzhou couldn't bear it anymore and followed Ye Zhihan upstairs.
Seeing Ji Hanzhou coming in, Ye Zhihan was slightly stunned, "You finished eating so quickly?"
Ji Hanzhou didn't say anything, just looked at Ye Zhihan straight. He wanted to ask who gave it to her, but he didn't dare to ask, what if it was given to her by someone she liked.
After all, she did say at the time, "We can sign an agreement. If one day you find someone you like, we can divorce." This was what she said when he proposed to marry her.
"Ji Hanzhou, are you really okay?" Ye Zhihan waved his hand in front of Ji Hanzhou.
Ji Hanzhou regained consciousness and said, "It's okay."
"Your rosewood box is quite special." He looked at the box in Ye Zhihan's hand, trying to make his tone sound more natural.
