marriage plan

Chapter 22
Lian Tianyu looked at her with a half-smile, which was elusive, "Xiao Qi is blushing? What's wrong? Are you curious about whether I have a girlfriend or not?"

"Ah?" Chu Qi opened his mouth wide, is there any ambiguity in these words? "No, no, no! That's not what it means! I just think that Mr. Lian is so kind to my sister! My sister is so happy!" She quickly denied it.

Lian Tianyu chuckled, "Xiaoqi doesn't have a brother?"

Chu Qi was a little lonely, and shook her head gently, "I am the only daughter in the family!" She used to think that she had everything, her brother, husband, and friends were all Shen Yan, and with Shen Yan, she had everything, but now she found out She was wrong, terribly wrong, terribly wrong...

"The only daughter is good! The jewel in the palm of my parents' eyes! She must be a precious treasure!" Lian Tianyu saw her loneliness in her eyes, and turned the focus to her parents, so that her sadness could be reduced...

After hearing this, Chu Qi pursed his lips and smiled, "That's right, well, Mr. Lian, don't just talk, let's choose gifts! Does Mr. Lian want to choose jewelry?"

Lian Tianyu shook her head, "I don't know either! I used to give jewelry, but last year this girl complained that there was nothing new! So I'm in a dilemma."

Chu Qi lowered his head and thought for a while, a light flashed in his mind, "Mr. Lian! I know what you can do! It's easy! Come with me!"

Chu Qi brought Lian Tianyu to the playground. She remembered that there used to be a pottery player's house here, where she could make pottery products by herself.

"It's there! It's still there!" She happily brought him into the store. There were many young people in the store, and there were even children playing with muddy hands.

"This...can I do it?" Lian Tianyu's tall body stood on the low pottery table, looking so uncoordinated that even he himself felt embarrassed.

Chu Qi smiled, "It's okay! This is very easy, Shen Yan did it too, and it will be done in one go..." She stopped talking, could not get rid of the word Shen Yan or something?

"Okay...I'll try..." Lian Tianyu's tall body sat down on the small stool, and the stool creaked. He felt a little embarrassed, and looked up at Chu Qi, "This stool...is strong enough... "

Chu Qi covered her mouth and smiled, "Indeed! Let's get to work!"

With the help of Chu Qi, Lian Tianyu followed the production steps and started the first hand-made in his life. Seeing the mud ball in his hand gradually forming under the rotation of the drawing machine, the surprise in his eyes was no less than that of the children around him.

In the end, when a cup first took shape, he became addicted to it and shouted for another one. Chu Qi looked at the mud in his hands and was having so much fun. He didn’t look like a president at all. He couldn’t help but sigh secretly. They all have the potential to "rejuvenate their youth". Shen Yan was happier than him when he came to play for the first time...

The two cups were pulled out and dried, and it was going to rain all day to paint the shape of the cups.He drew a snow-white little girl on the first cup and wrote three words: Snow Doll.

According to a woman's intuition, this girl is a symbol of Lian Tianyu's younger sister, Snow Doll, such a beautiful name... She can't help but be fascinated...

When Lian Tianyu picked up the second cup, his eyes were fixed on Chu Qi, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised. Not long after, a pink doll was born under his pen, and the inscription on it was: Princess Mi.

Chu Qi looked down at herself, then at the doll on the cup, all in pink, who is it? "Me? Why me?"

Lian Tianyu handed over the two cups to the staff to be fired, turned around and said with a smile, "Thank you! You won't dislike my poor workmanship, will you?"

"Why?" Chu Qi blushed, "It's just, hehe, I'm not used to it..." She's not used to strangers writing her name on gifts...

"What's wrong with you? A girl like you should be pampered like a princess!" When Lian Tianyu looked at her, the ripples in his eyes widened.

"Hehe..." Chu Qi smirked twice, looking away, "Mr. Lian, let's go, we won't be able to pick it up until three days later, and we need to burn something, it won't exceed the gift giving time Bar?"

"No! Let's go! Let's go eat!" Lian Tianyu was decisive, leaving no room for her to refuse, and she walked out of the pottery shop first.

"No... I'd better... go back and eat!" Chu Qi followed out, looked at the sky, worried that her mother would be in a hurry.

"Is Shen Yan waiting for you?" Lian Tianyu suddenly said, and opened the car door for her.

"Eh?" She got into the car and looked at Lian Tianyu, not understanding what Lian Tianyu meant.

Lian Tianyu smiled mysteriously, closed the door with a "bang", got into the car himself, started the car, and said slowly, "A divorced couple is still living together pretending to be husband and wife because they are worried that their father will not be able to withstand the stimulation and get sick. ..."

Chu Qi could not close her mouth in surprise, "How do you know?"

"I'm sorry! This is your privacy, I shouldn't mention it, I just think you are too wronged, really, Xiaoqi, in fact, the one you should hurt most is yourself, you have to treat yourself better!" Lian Tianyu looked It seemed very sincere, and there was no trace of deliberately prying into her privacy.

"But... how do you know?" Chu Qi's voice trembled slightly due to the continuous rain in his throat.This is a secret, an absolute secret, a secret that almost drove her crazy, she was afraid that people would know it, but now that one more person knows it, it doesn't feel so heavy...

Lian Tianyu smiled slightly, and handed her a tissue, "Xiaoqi, don't worry about how I know, some things cannot be kept secret, how long can you keep it from your father? Instead, you are holding yourself back too much! Don’t you even dare to cry loudly at home?”

Chu Qi sucked her nose with a tissue, her nose was sour, she nodded, and tears fell down.

"Then let's have a good cry first!" Lian Tianyu turned on the stereo, and there was very loud rock music, "Cry, cry louder than this!"

Chu Qi thought of the grievances he had suffered for many days, and with the continuous rain, big tears fell down. At first, he just cried silently, and then wept aloud, because it was covered by the sound of music, and he didn't feel it How earth-shattering I was crying, so that my voice became louder and louder.

Lian Tianyu didn't say anything, just handed her tissues while driving, and a large pile of tissues piled up on her lap unknowingly.Finally, Lian Tianyu handed her her own sleeve...

Without realizing it, she reached out to grab it, but what she caught was Lian Tianyu's hand.Feeling that the texture was not right, I squinted and squinted, feeling ashamed.

"It's okay! Continue to borrow for free!" Lian Tianyu said with a smile.

However, the sound was too loud and Chu Qi couldn't hear it. She turned down the volume and asked, wiping away her tears, "What did you just say?"

"I said..." Lian Tianyu stared at her seriously, "After crying, it's time to laugh."

But how could Chu Qi laugh?Tears were still streaming down, my chest was heaving, and I was sobbing violently.

Lian Tianyu laughed, "Can't you laugh? Look at yourself, Princess Mi has turned into a little cat!" He turned the rearview mirror to face her.

Chu Qi looked in the mirror, screamed "Ah—" and then covered her face and laughed.Today I came out with makeup on!Tears and snot are messed up, makeup is all over, plus I spent an afternoon playing around in the pottery shop, and my face still has a lot of mud on it...

And this face actually made a fool of herself in front of Lian Tianyu, how can she be asked to behave in the future!
Lian Tianyu's laughter echoed in his ears, as well as his soft bass, "I've seen how ugly Xiao Qi is, so you can't call me Mr. Lian anymore!"

"What's that called?" She still covered her face with her hands, opened her fingers, and looked at him through her eyes.

"It's called Tianyu. Okay?" He looked intently at the car ahead and smiled slightly, with a beautiful profile.

She swallowed her saliva and didn't speak. She seemed to lack the nerve to deal with men. Shen Yan didn't give her a chance to deal with other men in the past 25 years. Her head...is blocked now, and she can't turn around Come on.

"If Xiaoqi doesn't say anything, I'll take it as an agreement!" Lian Tianyu smiled slightly when she spoke, as if coaxing a child.

"Ah! No..." Chu Qi covered her face, her eyes were exposed between her fingers after crying, brighter and more attractive.

"Okay! Don't argue! Isn't it just a title? Why do you have to be so rude, Mr. Mr.? You helped me a lot today, so you can be considered a friend! It's normal for me to treat you to dinner! We're here, get out of the car!" He stopped the car, turned to look at her, and laughed, "Are you going to keep covering your face like this?"

Chu Qi bulged her cheeks, but didn't intend to take her hands away.

Lian Tianyu shook his head lightly with a smile, took out a new towel, and sighed, "After crying through a box of tissues, you are amazing! It turns out that someone really can cry louder than rock music!"

That mocking smile bloomed on his lips, but it didn't make people feel embarrassed, but made people feel warm.He wet the towel with water and ordered her with a smile, "Get your hands off!"

There was an irresistible force in his voice, and she inexplicably let go of her hand until he held a towel and wiped her face, the cold water irritated her red skin from crying, and he and Shen Yan were alike. When the smell of fragrant shaving water wafted in, she felt a burst of panic and embarrassment, and reached out to grab the towel, "I... do it myself!"

"Take it away!" Lian Tianyu snorted, shook off her hand, and continued to wipe her face gently, bit by bit, with a serious look, so scared that she dared not move.

She didn't heave a sigh of relief until he said "Okay", but she heard him say, "Xiao Qi is more beautiful without makeup!"

"Really? Thank you!" She is now numb to the word beautiful.The person who cares the most doesn't know how to appreciate it. What's the point of being beautiful?
As usual, Lian Tianyu got out of the car with a very gentlemanly manner, opened the door for her, and asked her to get off, "Come and try the taste of this restaurant, I personally like it very much!"

It seems that today's meal must be eaten...

When ordering, Lian Tianyu had a strange expression, "I remember the first time I invited Xiaoqi to dinner, Xiaoqi ordered these dishes, tuna fish slices, fried soft duck with lemon, pre-fried big prawns, salty Egg steamed meat pie, and white porridge, right?"

Chu Qi was slightly surprised, "Mr. Lian, you have a really good memory!"

"I said you can't be called Mr. Lian! Call me Tianyu or something else..." He smiled strangely, "The uglier the nickname, the closer the relationship. I don't mind, as long as it is not called Mr. Lian!"

"Then it's still...Brother Tianyu?" Chu Qi made a compromise choice.

"Brother?" Lian Tianyu chuckled, "Okay! Brother is brother!"

The tall man suddenly made a comical movement, looking around slyly, but lowered his voice, "Shen Yan is not here today, you can eat whatever you want! Let your stomach go!"

This time Chu Qi was amused by his appearance, causing all the guests in the restaurant to look at her.She quickly covered her mouth, stared and complained to him, "It's all your fault! You made me look ugly!"

Lian Tianyu sat up straight and smiled, "It's not easy to make the princess smile!"

Chu Qi pursed her lips and chuckled, "Mr. Lian..."

"Huh?" Lian Tianyu frowned, and stretched his face unhappily.

Chu Qi came to his senses, and laughed, "Eh... forgot again! Brother Tianyu, I can't tell you're quite humorous! I thought...hehe!"

"What do you think? Do you think I'm fierce?" Lian Tianyu reported the name of the dish just now to the waiter, added another serving of dessert ice cream, and then looked at Chu Qi, waiting for her answer.

Chu Qi smiled, "I thought that someone who loves his sister as much as you must be a strict elder brother!"

Lian Tianyu shook his head, "It's one thing to treat a younger sister, but another thing to treat girls outside!"

"It sounds like Brother Tianyu is very experienced. There are many girls out there?" Chu Qi's female nature - gossip was exposed.

Lian Tianyu looked at her and smiled, "Why does Xiaoqi always like to ask this question? It's easy for me to misunderstand!"

"Ah—then pretend I didn't ask!" Chu Qi vaguely felt that this topic was not fun...

Lian Tianyu just smiled and didn't say any more.

After the waiter brought the dishes, Lian Tianyu introduced to her, "Actually, this place is more famous for western food and desserts. Chinese food is just so-so! Try it first, and if you can't, switch to western food!"

"Not bad!" Chu Qi ate some shrimp first, "It's delicious! I don't like Western food very much! Desserts are okay..." At the end, I added, "Mr. Lian really knows this place very well."

Lian Tianyu looked at her and smiled, "Did you call Mr. Lian again just now? How would you punish me?"

"Ah?" Chu Qi scratched her hair, "I forgot! Is there still a penalty?"

"Of course! Are you saying that you are punished with three drinks? Or are you fined to invite me back to dinner?" Lian Tianyu looked at her with a smile.

"I don't know how to drink! But it's okay to treat you to dinner!" Chu Qi doesn't regard treating him to dinner as a punishment. She is not a person who likes to take advantage of others. Once she eats someone else, it is only natural to treat her back once. .

"Okay! Then it's settled. Next time I'm free, I'll call you and invite me to dinner!" Lian Tianyu took a sip of his wine, "I'll drink this wine for you!"

Chu Qi looked at his glass, the luster of the red wine was dazzling under the light, "Brother Tianyu, you still have to drive today, can you not drink?"

Lian Tianyu immediately agreed, "Okay! Xiaoqi won't drink if he says he won't drink!"

"It's not that I don't drink if I don't drink it! In short, I hate people who drink!" Chu Qi frowned when he said this.

"Okay! Then I will stop drinking from now on!" Lian Tianyu agreed very readily.

Chu Qi couldn't help muttering, "I really don't know what's so good about wine! Especially strong wine, it's spicy and bitter, and it's uncomfortable when you're drunk. Why do so many people love to drink it!"

Lian Tianyu looked at her with a condescending attitude, "Little girl! You grew up in a honey pot. You don't know that it's windy and rainy outside. Drinking can make people courageous, and it can also numb some pain."

Chu Qi didn't take it seriously, "What do you mean I grew up in a honeypot? Could it be that Brother Tianyu has suffered a lot? But he is a few years older than me, so it sounds like he has been weather-beaten!"

Lian Tianyu chuckled, "You don't know that, do you? I'm different from you. I don't have a family business to inherit. I did it all with my own hands. Otherwise, why are there so many calluses on my hands? The hardships I have suffered , you can't even think of it!"

"Isn't it?" Chu Qi stared at him, looking left and right.

"It's okay if you don't believe me! I've never told anyone else about these things, so you must have heard it wrong! Come, eat more!" Lian Tianyu moved the plate towards her.

"Enough! I can only eat so much!" Chu Qi remembered the stomach ache a few nights ago, so he didn't dare to eat more today, and there was also a tempting ice cream. I haven't eaten ice cream for a long time. Today Have to relive the deliciousness.She put down the bowl and chopsticks and brought the ice cream over.

Lian Tianyu laughed, "Then I've earned it! If you treat me to dinner, you'll only eat this little? Next time you invite me, I'll eat a lot! You can't miss this opportunity to make a fortune. Come and tell me your number." , I will chase you and treat me to dinner next time!"

Chu Qi was teased by him and smiled again, and told him her number.Seeing that even Tianyu had almost finished eating, he ate the ice cream in big mouthfuls.

"Are you full? Are you sure?" Lian Tianyu was ready to pay the bill.

"Hmm! I'm full, thank you!" She looked at the time, it was still early, thinking about taking a taxi back home.

After paying the bill, Lian Tianyu asked her, "Aren't you in a hurry to go home? There is a concert today, it's worth listening to!"

She hesitated a little, not knowing why her heart was hanging high.

"Let's go! I don't know much about music. Xiaoqi is a lady from a famous family. She should know everything. This ticket was given to me by someone else. Don't waste it. If you don't want to go with me, the ticket is for you. You can invite a friend." Let's accompany you!" Lian Tianyu handed her the ticket and stood up, "Whom does Xiao Qi want to date, I'll see you off!"

Chu Qi felt a little guilty when he saw him say this, "This...isn't that good? Why don't we go together!"

"That's really my honor!" Lian Tianyu beamed with joy, "Can Xiao Qi give me a live explanation?"

"no problem!"

The two walked out of the restaurant.

However, as soon as Chu Qi stepped out of the restaurant, Chu Qi felt an invisible huge pressure, and then a voice sounded, "Xiao Qi!"

Chu Qi looked towards the source of the pressure, and Shen Yan was walking towards her. Under the bright street lights, his slender figure cast a dark shadow on the ground.

Standing still in front of her, a deep voice poured down from above her head, "Seven, I'll take you home."

Take her home?What a domineering tone!Why should she go home when he asked her to go home?Is there still a home between her and him?

It was just a house.

What's the point of a house if the soul of the home is taken away?All that's left is loneliness, all that's left is torment...

"Mr. Shen, hello." Lian Tianyu was the one who always extended his hand first, smiling and personable.

"Hello!" Shen Yan shook back, "Thank you for taking care of Qi."

Lian Tianyu smiled, "Where, it is every man's duty to serve single beauties, and Lian is obliged to do so."

Lian Tianyu's words were obviously provocative, emphasizing that Chu Qi is a beauty, and she is a single beauty.

Shen Yan replied with a smile, he was a born nobleman, his smile was more elegant and dignified than Lian Tianyu's, but less sinister.

"Yes! But single ladies have to go home before nine o'clock, Qi, didn't mother tell you that? Say goodbye to Mr. Lian." Shen Yan set his eyes on Chu Qi, the authoritarian and firmness in his eyes remained the same as before .

He thought that she was still Xiao Qi from before, as long as he looked at her, she would obediently follow him to the ends of the earth without complaint or regret?
He was the one who told her, they, can't go back to the past...

Lowering her head, she didn't say a word, and she still couldn't learn how to defy him, but she could use silence to express her protest.

Lian Tianyu said something in time, "Well, Mr. Shen, if Mr. Shen believes in me, I will definitely send Xiao Qi home safely and on time after the concert. I will use my head of Lian as a guarantee ,OK?"

Shen Yan smiled lightly, the neon lights shone on his face, making him look a little pale, "Mr. Lian, for Xiao Qi's mother, Mr. Lian's head is of no use!"

After speaking, regardless of Lian Tianyu's reaction, she said softly to Chu Qi, "Qi, mom is very worried, let's go home!"

damn it!He will use her mother to blackmail her!She bit her lip and looked away reluctantly.

"Okay!" Shen Yan showed a helpless smile, "If you insist on going to the concert, just tell your mother so she can rest assured."

Shen Yan dialed the number at home and handed her the phone.

She could predict the consequences of answering the phone, and hesitated to answer it, but her mother's voice came from the phone, "Hello! Hello! Are you talking? Have you found Qi? Talk?"

Under the neon lights, Shen Yan smiled lightly. Chu Qi knew that if she didn't answer, Shen Yan would answer his mother's words, and he would definitely answer, I found it.Then mother's order is: take her home...

Then, she might as well pick it up herself!
She gave Shen Yan a bitter look, grabbed the phone, and called softly, "Mom..."

The mother's criticism came from head to toe, "Qi! What's the matter with you? You know that Shen Yan came back today and ran out to play, even if you play, you have to be careful? How can you be a wife like this? Qi! You It's time to grow up! Fortunately, Shen Yan is a good boy, and he is willing to pick you up in person. If it was your father back then, I'm afraid he would have kicked me out of the house! Why are you still dawdling outside? Come back soon, yes Are you trying to piss off your parents?"
