Jiang Sui looked at the two people standing behind her from the corner of her eye. Because of their presence, she could not fully implement the idea in her mind. She could only lower her eyes and said: "Then I will give it a try, but... first Which one should I try? ”
Both sides of the room were hung with all kinds of clothes and accessories that went with the dresses.
Unknowingly, the midday sun had already poured into the room.
Jiang Sui, who had never bothered with the style of clothes and had his assistant directly match the clothes and send them home every six months, finally felt the pain of shopping.
Even though it looks like an ordinary long dress, there is actually such a lot of knowledge about what jewelry is more suitable to match. And when it comes to this, someone will carefully come up to her with jewelry for her to choose.
Although she had attended more than one banquet, she didn't need to worry at all at that time. She only had to point at one of the pictures handed over by the assistant and wait.
But now——
Jiang Sui looked at Lin Xiyue, who had been sitting at the table eating snacks for some time, and motioned for the others to rest for a while before continuing in the afternoon.
After the others closed the door and left, they went over and took a bite of the lotus-shaped snack in Lin Xiyue's hand.
Obviously he shouldn't have touched anything, but the touch between his fingertips and his lips and tongue was very obvious.
Lin Xiyue curled up her fingers and tried to cover up her momentary embarrassment by holding up the teacup, but she didn't have this chance.
The crumbs of dessert on her fingertips were kissed off little by little. She wanted to withdraw her hand, but she felt that there was nothing uncomfortable about leaving it like this.
The kiss had come to the palm of her hand. Lin Xiyue looked at the woman who was wearing a dress embroidered with wing patterns and a blue gemstone necklace around her neck.
The tail of Jiang Sui's hair was dyed bright brown by the direct light. His originally amber eyes should have reflected the blue sky and birds outside the window, but they were staring at her.
Lin Xiyue felt itchy in the palm of her hand and couldn't help but move it, just in time to press Jiang Sui's chin.
The touch of her palm was warm and delicate, and Jiang Sui was held in her hand obediently. The voices of other people were still heard outside the window, and a flock of birds flew past the window.
The lake not far away was shining with golden light, and a boat pulled through the glacier that had not completely melted, making a clattering sound. There was an exclamation from below, and the window suddenly dimmed.
Lin Xiyue didn't care about this, she just deepened the kiss with her heart.
She licked the pointed little tiger tooth on Jiang Sui's left side and rubbed it involuntarily with her fingers. She felt that everything in the world had receded, leaving only the intimacy and warmth between them.
The fine light from this balloon shines on their bodies, and the dense fragrance of tea rises. The two women wearing long skirts of different styles meet together, like scrolls on an oil painting.
Lin Xiyue looked at the wound at the corner of her mouth in the mirror and couldn't help but cover her face. Everything was fine at first, but for some reason, their teeth collided with each other at the end, and she was bitten accidentally. The corners of his mouth were broken.
"Alas." She sighed and looked at the woman in the mirror whose cheeks were flushed. She had not yet reacted to the previous intimacy. What could she do but forgive her.
Moreover, Jiang Sui had already apologized to her guiltily, and bumps and bruises were inevitable when doing this kind of thing, not to mention that it was not Jiang Sui's problem in the first place.
Lin Xiyue poured cold water on her face, barely covering up her embarrassment that she hid in the bathroom and didn't dare to go out because of such a thing.
Knock knock knock.
Jiang Sui's gentle voice sounded outside the door, "Qiyue, I sent someone to bring lunch." After a pause, she said very considerately: "I have asked them to rest. There are only I am alone, you can come out first and then..."
Lin Xiyue opened the door violently with a stern face. But because of the wound at the corner of her mouth and the lingering look on her face, it doesn't make people feel scared at all, it only makes people want to blaspheme but feel pity for her.
Jiang Sui took her hand and led her to the dining table, speaking softly. Lin Xiyue quickly relaxed, "Our engagement will be in two days, right?" She couldn't bear it. He touched the corners of his mouth, feeling worried, "What if it's not better by then?"
She regretted that the previous kiss ended too fiercely.
Jiang Sui cut the food in his hand into thin slices bit by bit, then stood up and changed the plates, "Don't worry." He seemed to be afraid that he was not sincere enough, "If you are worried, we can bring it together when the day comes. Wear veils so they can’t see our expressions.”
She usually wouldn't make such a joke, but the way Lin Xiyue was worried because she was afraid of messing up was really cute, and she couldn't help but lower her voice to coax her.
Lin Xiyue used the knife and fork in her hand to pick up a small tomato cut in half and put it into her mouth. The sour and astringent taste with a hint of sweetness entered her mouth. This feeling was very similar to the one between them. kiss.
She glanced at Jiang Sui reluctantly with the corners of her red eyes, and reluctantly agreed to the suggestion.
"...That's okay." She swept away the remaining food in a few mouthfuls, and then looked out the window.
The crowd who were busy down there just now dispersed in twos and threes, leaving only the things they had prepared in place.
The arch that had been decorated with fresh flowers became bare again. With Jiang Sui's attention, these flowers must be the flowers that were transported by air that day. The temporary castle-like building built on the grass has revealed its original appearance, with high arches and stained glass decorations carved from stained glass.
"This engagement is still in a hurry." Jiang Sui stood behind her and said at some point: "I will do better on the day we get married."
Because she was afraid of long nights and many dreams, she chose such a close time. She always felt a sense of urgency, as if if she didn't hurry up, she would not be able to catch the person she wanted to have.
Lin Xiyue turned around in surprise, pointing to the exquisite ornaments below, "You said these were made in a hurry?"
She thought it was Jiang Sui's perfectionism that was causing trouble again, and she was afraid that something terrible would appear again, so she quickly comforted her: "It's already very good. This is the best engagement ceremony I have ever participated in."
Jiang Sui suddenly smiled and narrowed his amber eyes, "So you have participated in other engagement ceremonies?"
Lin Xiyue looked at the setting sun hanging between the trees and said, "I used to have a friend...although her final ending was not good."
Her only friend in that world gradually lost her aura because she was abused by her family and former lover, and turned into the person she hated the most.
Although she said at the time that this was called growing up, they both knew that their friendship would never be the same again.
"Let's not talk about this anymore." Lin Xiyue glanced at System who was sleeping among the flowers again, "Shall we go for a walk by the lake?"
At this time, the sky had darkened, and there was no longer the burning feeling at noon. The breeze blew in along with the fragrance of flowers. She turned her head, and her long black hair danced in the wind.
Jiang Sui didn't ask anything else, just nodded, "Okay."
Perhaps it was because the staff were resting and tidying up on the other side at this time. There was no one else around the lake except a group of white ducks swimming in it.
The two of them walked together, the shade of the trees above their heads blocking most of the light, leaving only dots of light shining through the gaps in the branches.
Lin Xiyue looked at the ground, patiently avoiding the light spots.
It's a pity that because of the current time period, they can't see the wisteria flowers. She was thinking in her mind and asked, "Should wisteria be planted there?"
Jiang Sui followed her gaze and looked over, "I still want to listen to your suggestion, so let's plant wisteria flowers." She nodded to confirm the matter and looked at the smiling woman.
"We will live here after we get engaged. You can transform this place into whatever you want."
Lin Xiyue looked at her, her black pupils filled with smiles, "Even if I want to erect a statue of myself in the center of the garden, is that okay?"
Jiang Sui was stunned at first, then quickly became serious, "Of course, but... if we must erect a statue." She took a few steps closer and whispered, "I want to be with you."
There are statues of both of them in the garden. Lin Xiyue felt so disgusting just thinking about it, and how should the other people working here look at them?
"No, no, no, I was joking." She said quickly.
Because of Jiang Sui's mobility, she was afraid of discovering this surprise when she got up the next morning.
There were voices in the open space not far from the lake, and a huge truck drove in. The trunk was covered with black cloth. From here, you could only see what they were busy with, but you couldn't see clearly.
She quickly diverted Jiang Sui's attention and asked, "What are they busy with over there?"
Could it be that Jiang Sui had prepared another surprise for the engagement ceremony?
The two of them sat on the bench and watched the people on the other side of the lake busy coming and going. Jiang Sui said: "I asked the experts during this period. If the tree must be transplanted during this period, these two days are the best. .”
"The weather is getting warmer, and it happens to be two days before our engagement." She turned her head and looked at Lin Xiyue, who was stunned. "If it is there by then, we will definitely be happier."
"It's a pity it's not summer, but it's already good."
Lin Xiyue looked at the flash of color not far away and was speechless.
She didn't expect that the ginkgo tree that she had been thinking about before would suddenly appear in front of her. "...When summer comes, we can hold it again under the tree."
She promised: "It's just the two of us, okay?"
For her, living with Jiang Sui for a long time is what she cares about most.
So we need to hold her back with what the two of us will do in the future.
