Qiao Nian was playing Xiaoxiaole. When he lost his concentration, his finger slipped and the gameover sound effect came out, which was particularly abrupt in the quiet restaurant.
Gan!
Qiao Nian had to raise her head, looked into someone's straight eyes, and paused: "Well, just like it."
"Then how can I thank God Qiao?" Ye Wangchuan turned the ring in his hand, feeling extremely happy: "How about I pledge myself to you?"
Qiao Nian: "...haven't you already promised?"
Ye Wangchuan looked at her intently for a few seconds, her shadow reflected in his dark eyes, and then he naturally took off the string of Buddhist beads on his wrist that Qiao Nian had seen him wearing the first time they met, and handed them over: " This is a return gift."
He directly took the girl's hand and put the beads on the girl's left wrist one by one with a force that could not be refused.
Qiao Nian smelled the sandalwood fragrance that had not yet disappeared from his body.
Ye Wangchuan stopped his fingers and lightly touched her wrist wearing the beads. Qiao Nian felt a numbness on her back, and a fine touch where they touched.
"This string of prayer beads was obtained by the old lady from the master in Yinghua Mountain when she was still alive. It has been with me since I was born. It is said that it can suppress inner demons."
He was born without a mother.
The old lady at home was afraid that he would be harmed by this incident when he grew up, so she went to the master to pray for a string of Buddhist beads, which not only ensured his safety, but also allowed him to grow up in love and not breed inner demons.
Of course this is what the old lady said.
The old lady died early.
He has carried this string of beads around his hand for as long as he can remember. At first he had to go around it many times, but now he only needs one or two.
This is not just a string of prayer beads, but the sincerity he can give.
They are not short of money and care about very few things.
But it's one of the things he cares about.
Of course not as important as Qiao Nian.
"She is a very good person, kind and gentle, tolerant and good at cooking. If you meet her, you will also like her." Ye Wangchuan fell into memories for a moment, but soon came back to his senses. He looked at Qiao Nian, with a high nose bridge and extremely long eyelashes, and suddenly smiled: "Of course, she will also like you."
Qiao Nian knew that the string of prayer beads he gave her was a relic of his grandma and was of great significance, so she pursed her lips and said, "When we are done with the work in a few days, we can go and see her."
Ye Wangchuan was startled for a moment before he understood what she meant.
Like a drop of water falling into a quiet lake, the ripples it creates expand in circles until they occupy the center of the lake.
His voice became much hoarse: "Yeah."
**
On the other side, at the same time.
Li family.
Li De had just changed into a white suit and tied a bow around his neck when he heard his grandma talking to his parents in the living room about someone.
He instantly threw away the servant who was getting him a suit and walked over quickly.
"Grandma, what did you say? Who are you taking?"
"What are you doing! Why are you talking to your grandma? You usually act like a fool, but you are so unruly at home." Father Li scolded him back angrily.
Li De didn't listen, he frowned and looked at his grandma closely: "Grandma, do you want to take Haitong to the birthday party?"
The old lady, who was wearing an improved cheongsam and wearing a tourmaline necklace to suppress her nobility, was energetic and looked at him with a somewhat surprised expression: "Do you know him?"
"..."
The old lady frowned again: "She just came back from studying abroad, and you already know her?"
