Chapter 612 The Meaning of Travel (7)
“I always feel that this sentence is not appropriate for you to say.”
Su Chengyi looked away, picked up the ball at his feet, Throw it out again.
“Why is it not suitable?”
“Because it is difficult to find 1,800 faults in you.”
Su Chengyi shrugged and replied.
“.I beg you, it’s hard to find out from anyone, okay!”
Chu Qingmian snorted and raised her eyes to glare at him.
Fu Rui picked up the ball, placed it in her open palm, and shook the snow off his body.
When the black hair of the Bernese Mountain Dog is piled with snowflakes, it looks like a chocolate cake covered with a layer of frosting. It looks very beautiful.
"Good dog~"
Chu Qingmian bent down and pinched its furry head.
"It’s time to come to my hometown~ Have you felt your blood vibrating? Little Furui, in fact, your whole body of fur is just for rolling around in the snow."
After thinking about it for a while, she said "Hey" and threw the ball in her hand.
Fu Rui said "Woof!" in cooperation, and then chased him out again like a black bear spirit.
Su Chengyi took a sip of the coffee in his hand, and the heat rising from the lid of the cup quickly turned into white mist, making his vision blurry for a moment.
Actually, what he said just now is not unreasonable. The so-called "eccentricities, petty tempers, flickering, and eighteen hundred kinds of bad habits" from the mouth of the eldest lady are really very meaningless. Persuasiveness.
Because the whole world knows what a perfect person Miss Chu is, even the most demanding and fault-finding people cannot find any opportunity to find fault with her.
There is a ready-made example, Ms. Wei Peilan.
It is very convincing to say that she is the most strict and fault-finding person in the world. In this regard, if she is ranked second, I am afraid no one would dare to call her first.
But she had been dormant for many years, and there was only one fault she could find in the eldest lady.
Su Chengyi thought that the eldest lady had to fall in love with him.
I feel quite honored when I think about it.
After running back and forth for a few laps, Fury suddenly lay down at their feet with the ball in his mouth, seemingly losing interest in his favorite ball-picking game.
“Huh? Are you tired?”
Chu Qingmian was a little surprised by this.
Because large dogs like Furui are very energetic. They can run around the lawn for a whole afternoon at home on weekdays. Now they are tired after just a few laps. They look very tired. It's strange.
"Could it be a cold?"
Thinking of this possibility, Chu Qingmian couldn't help but touch its ears with some worry.
Su Chengyi chose to turn around and look at the way to the park on the other side, and then said in a "Sure enough" tone:
"Here."
He raised his chin and motioned Chu Qingmian to look to the other side.
Chu Qingmian looked in the direction he indicated, and sure enough, Uncle Gao and Butler Han were walking over carrying things.
"I probably smelled the tacos on their hands, so I'm just keeping watch."
Su Chengyi put his hands in his pockets and said slowly.
"I'm convinced!"
Chu Qingmian put away her worries and took a handful of Furui's big head angrily.
“Who did you, a foodie, learn from!”
“Do you even need to ask? I’ll tell you about it.”
Su Chengyi raised his eyebrows, his face filled with confusion. It read, "Aren't you asking questions knowingly?"
"."
Chu Qingmian choked. Although she wanted to refute, she felt a little unreasonable in her heart.
After being silent for a long time, she chose to break the jar and raised her hand to greet the two people on the other side.
“Here, here!”
Hearing the call of their young lady, the two people who were walking slowly in the snow quickly quickened their pace and took long strides. Came over.
"Miss, I bought five tacos. They are quite big and I feel like eating one is enough. Only the sauce is different, but everything else is the same. You can choose whatever you want first."
"Okay. "Hey, thank you for your hard work!"
Chu Qingmian happily took one of the bags and handed it to Su Chengyi.
Su Chengyi did not refuse, took it, opened the bag and took a bite.
It just tastes like a relatively ordinary Mexican burrito, filled with macaroni and roast beef, and has a strong aroma of cheese.
Before he could swallow the mouthful of beef, the black bear spirit crouching at his feet became anxious and circled around his feet while "barking".
"Okay, okay, don't be anxious! If you protect the food, you will be beaten."
Chu Qingmian patted its head as a warning, and then opened its hands That taco, after carefully checking that there was nothing in the side dishes that the dog couldn't eat, I fed it to him with confidence.
As Butler Han said, this vendor is indeed quite conscientious. The tacos are also big and the portions are very generous.
Even Furui’s big mouth took him several bites before he was able to eat it all.
Miss Chu finally started to eat her portion, while Butler Han and Uncle Gao, who were standing nearby, waited until she took the first bite before starting to take apart their portion.
Su Chengyi silently lowered his head and munched on the burrito, thinking that although the eldest lady treats others calmly and has no sense of distance, and the housekeeper and Uncle Gao look like her elders, in fact, if you look closely, you will find that there are still many things that are not There are clearly stated rules.
"Uncle Gao, can you park the car at the exit on the other side of the park? When I came in before, I saw it said no parking."
Su Chengyi took the remaining half of the car in one gulp A taco can be eaten, and then he asked vaguely.
Uncle Gao nodded when he heard this and said nothing. He just pointed to the other side, indicating that he noticed this and specially drove the car to the other side to stop, so he was delayed for a while.
"Okay."
Su Chengyi nodded, thinking that Uncle Gao was as reliable as ever.
No wonder Chu Yuanjiang agreed to his request to give Miss Chu three days off to chase whales, but at the same time he added the condition that Uncle Gao must accompany him.
In a foreign country, far away from home, with such a reliable bodyguard following you, you can feel more at ease.
Uncle Gao's tall and powerful stance gives people the feeling of a classic tough guy movie hero, like Keanu Reeves in "John Wick" or "Taken" Liam Neeson in.
"It's hard to imagine that a person who can only speak Wang Defa and Sha Sha's son in English can survive abroad just by reading the logo."
Han Guanjie couldn't help but complain as he ate the taco.
"Most of the time, I can understand what I mean just by looking at the other person."
Uncle Gao said slowly.
Su Chengyi thought for a while, facing such a big brother with a face as thick as his neck and a fierce look, it was difficult for everyone not to understand.
Otherwise, I always feel like this guy is going to take out his dick in the next second.
Chu Qingmian's portion of taco came with salad dressing. Seeing that she was eating seriously and didn't notice a little bit on the corner of her mouth, Su Chengyi reached over and wiped it off for her.
“Thank you.”
Chu Qingmian smiled at him, and then said thoughtfully:
“Uncle Gao, after you go back this time, you will probably I have to keep working. I have to work overtime every day. Cancel tomorrow’s activities and have a good rest.”
"No need, miss."
Uncle Gao shook his head and flatly refused.
In fact, he still had a lot to add. For example, his previous tasks were much more difficult than this. Don't underestimate the physical fitness of the special forces.
But after thinking about it, I took it back.
Because although the previous tasks were more difficult and risky, he actually didn't have much psychological pressure.
I have been alone for many years. At that time, I just held on to the idea that one more day would be a day. My only obsession was to drag a few more opponents into the water before making sacrifices.
It is different now. Watching this eldest lady grow up day by day, it is like finally having a relative in the world. Naturally, her mood will not be as relaxed as before. On the contrary, it should be said that she is under a lot of pressure.
"Nothing will happen to me. Just because I don't talk about many things doesn't mean that I really don't understand."
Chu Qingmian lowered her head and smiled, carefully speaking Fold the packaging bag.
"But there is one more thing I want to tell you here." "You said."
Uncle Gao paused, and he actually had a rough guess.
"My dad should have already mentioned it to you about Su Chengyi's personal safety, but I hope you can pay more attention to it when making arrangements."
Chu Qingmian frowned slightly. , said this.
In fact, she has been feeling vaguely uneasy recently. She can't explain why, but she feels that sometimes people really have to trust their intuition.
"If you already attach great importance to it, then please pay more attention to it."
As soon as she said this, the other three fell into a brief silence.
Butler Han really wanted to sigh because of his young lady’s heavy affection.
No wonder the writer would write: Women will do earth-shattering stupid things for the sake of feelings.
Su Chengyi's silence is more rational. Although she has always known that the situation is serious, Miss Chu has always been whitewashing the peace. Now she does not shy away from it and speaks out bluntly, That would be even more thought-provoking.
After a long while, Uncle Gao nodded and replied:
"Okay, Miss."
"Thank you, Uncle Gao, I know you will do it if you promise, that's good. ”
Chu Qingmian sighed softly, and her folded fingers hidden under the sleeves of her down jacket exerted slight pressure.
At this time, Su Chengyi suddenly reached out and held her wrist.
"I won't ask you not to think about this, but after today, don't worry about me anymore."
The tone of his words was the same as usual, without any waves, but very firm.
Chu Qingmian was slightly startled and raised his eyes.
"I promise you, I will act carefully. You know, I rarely make mistakes."
Su Chengyi held her wrist tightly and said seriously:
"So you have to promise me not to be distracted or stupid."
"Okay."
Chu Qingmian pursed her lips, her voice trembling slightly.
Actually, I'm a little scared.
Chu Yuanjiang has been fighting with the Hou family for so many years, and now victory is in sight. Even the most experienced person will inevitably make some mistakes.
Just like now, he seems to feel that he has a chance to win, but from Chu Qingmian's perspective, the situation is actually completely foggy, and the ending is not clear at all.
If Su Chengyi hadn't fought for this short trip, Chu Qingmian felt that the string in her mind was just a little bit away from breaking.
Fortunately, now she has another chance to breathe, so that she can calm down, adjust her condition, and face this again.
Su Chengyi looked at her slightly trembling eyelashes, thought for a moment, raised his head and gave Uncle Gao a look.
The other party quickly understood and said:
"I'm going to smoke a cigarette."
Butler Han was very keen and nodded immediately, grabbing the taco bags that several people had finished eating.
"Then I'll pack up the trash and throw it away."
The two quickly fled and left the scene.
Su Chengyi bent down and touched Fu Rui's head, and then handed the rubber ball to the still worried eldest lady.
"Let's go back to the hotel after one more round of fun."
"Okay."
Chu Qingmian took a deep breath and tried to cheer herself up.
"Go Pikachu!"
This time she tried to throw the ball far, and Fury flew out with a "woof".
Su Chengyi raised his head and looked at the frozen branches on the treetops, looking at what looked like a series of crystal pendants.
Perceiving his silence, Chu Qingmian pursed her lips slightly, feeling a little regretful.
I obviously planned this trip to relax myself, so I shouldn’t have brought my anxiety to him. What a fool.
Chu Qingmian lowered her eyes, the more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. She wring her fingers and tried to think of something lighter to talk about.
“Fury is back.”
Su Chengyi suddenly said coldly.
“Oh.”
Chu Qingmian raised her head in confusion and reached out to take the rubber ball that Furui had brought back.
But this time it is different.
What Fu Rui took back was a small box as big as a palm. Chu Qingmian opened her eyes wide and let out a surprised "huh".
"Did you pick up something that someone lost?"
"Open it and take a look."
Unexpectedly, Su Chengyi seemed to have known about it for a long time, with a faint smile on his lips.
Chu Qingmian then realized that this was another little trick of his.
Probably I have trained with Fury many times behind my back, so I can do it so skillfully.
The box in his hand was very light, and there was a row of shallow tooth marks left by Fu Rui's bite.
Chu Qingmian took a deep breath and opened the box.
Lying inside is a light blue crystal pendant, made into the shape of a whale. It shines brightly under the moonlight and is very beautiful.
"I originally planned to give it to you if I was unlucky and didn't see the whale, but after thinking about it, it doesn't matter if I give it to you now."
Su Chengyi's smile did not diminish when he spoke, probably I have prepared such a small gift for a long time.
Chu Qingmian lowered her eyelashes and held the whale pendant in her hand.
Su Chengyi was about to continue saying something when she saw her tears falling down without warning and falling on the tail of the whale.
The words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat. After a while, he just raised his hand and wiped away her tears.
“Actually, when I saw the whale today, I didn’t just say those words to it.”
Chu Qingmian said suddenly.
"Really? What else did you say?"
Su Chengyi gently ruffled her forehead hair and lowered his head to ask.
"I whispered. If there is an afterlife, I also want to be a whale, well, it would be better to be a white whale!"
Chu Qingmian rolled his eyes and said, The dry tears were like sparkling diamonds in her eyes.
“Not the kind of beluga whale that is kept in captivity in an aquarium and scares children. It is the kind of beluga whale that is free and swimming around in the real sea!”
After emphasizing such additional conditions, Chu Qingmian looked at Su Chengyi and asked with 100% seriousness:
"Su Chengyi, when the time comes, will you come to see me?"
Hearing her ask such a question, Su Chengyi suddenly felt as if a heavy boulder was pressing on his heart, almost making him breathless.
After a long while, he lowered his eyes and did not answer directly, but asked:
"There are beluga whales in so many places around the world, how can I find you?"
"But there are so many people in the world, and I haven't met you yet!"
Miss Chu didn't give in, and moved a little closer until the two of them could only see each other in their eyes.
She asked very seriously, as if she would disappear in front of him in the next second.
In order to cover up the uneasiness in his heart, Su Chengyi simply counted out a bunch of place names, all of which were relatively famous places where beluga whales gather.
"St. Lawrence River, the mouth of the Churchill River west of Hudson Bay, Gulf of Alaska."
Having said this, he thought for a while, then paused slightly and asked again:
"There are many beluga whales in these places. How can I recognize you by then?"< br>
Chu Qingmian smiled softly, the smile on her eyebrows soft.
"At that time, I will be the first to jump out of the sea and say hello to you."
