Chapter 5 The Joke of Youth

Jiang Hong unconsciously showed a happy smile on his face, and secretly glanced at Xu Wan beside him.

He hurriedly turned his head to look at the road again.

He felt that he was peeking like this, as if it was a bit greasy.

But peeking at one's wife isn't illegal, right?
Xu Wan noticed his little move and pursed her lips into a smile.

There are too many things to say between the two of them, but they don't know what to say for a while.

"You just said, let me pack up and move...to our house?"

"Our family?"

Jiang Hong smacked carefully, the taste of these three words.

Xu Wan nodded.

"Yes, didn't you rent a house in City Z? Since I have something to live in, why do you rent a house outside?"

It seems reasonable.

but?Live at Xu Wan's house?

Jiang Hong felt as if his heartbeat stopped for a moment.

"Actually, I've saved some money in the past few years, and I can almost make a down payment..."

Xu Wan gave him a strange look.

"I have a place to live, why do I have to pay another down payment? Why, you still have machismo? Do you feel ashamed to live with me?"

"Oh, we are both legal couples now, and we will be bound together in the future, so why should we share yours and mine?"

Jiang Hong remained silent.

This man's dignity is a problem, what should I say?

Over the years, what caused him the most hesitation was naturally the reason for his family situation. There was a huge gap between his family background and Xu Wan's family.

But there are some things, it is impossible not to think about them.

He pondered for a moment, then said.

"There are some problems that I have to think about..."

"...If this is the case, what will your parents think of me? What will your family members think of me? They will think that I get something for nothing, that I am a..."

Jiang Hong hadn't finished speaking yet.

Xu Wan, who was originally leaning softly on the back of the chair, showed a dazed expression on her face, suddenly loosened her seat belt, and sat upright.

The expression is very serious.

"Jiang Hong, you pull over first, the two of us have to talk about this matter, it's not safe to drive while talking."

Jiang Hong found a parking space, pulled over and pulled the handbrake.

What should come will always come.

So he took a deep breath and turned to look at Xu Wan.

"you say……"

Xu Wan was serious, so he naturally had to take it seriously.

"After what you said to me yesterday, I thought about it for a long time at night, thinking about the relationship between me and you these years, and about the things that happened between us."

"I admit that I was really stupid before, and I was too nervous to be so slow-witted."

"But now it's clear to the bystanders, I've discovered something...Jiang Hong, you've always been restrained, and you've been very restrained when it comes to me."

Xu Wan's voice is very gentle, and it sounds very comfortable.

Jiang Hong had never heard Xu Wan speak in such a tone before, and his heart warmed.

But what she said now is correct.

This is what he has been doing all these years.

Restraint, restraint, restraint again.

Xu Wan looked at Jiang Hong.

Perhaps because of the nervousness in his heart, Jiang Hong's hand was tightly gripping the shift lever, it was a little white, and his veins were throbbing.

Xu Wan stretched out her small white hand, and gently covered Jiang Hong's hand.

Jiang Hong's body stiffened visibly with the naked eye.

before.

Xu Wan has always resisted, and has physical contact with men.

Unless it is necessary for communication, she has never had any special physical contact with any non-elders of the opposite sex.

So before, Xu Wan's friends of the opposite sex all instinctively thought that she was very cold.

but.

Now Xu Wan found that she did not resist physical contact with Jiang Hong.

Maybe because.

Jiang Hong was the only person of the opposite sex who walked into her psychological defense all these years.

Although she didn't feel like getting an electric shock when she touched it, Xu Wan still felt a little numbness in her hands.

"I've noticed it before."

"However, I think this may be a manifestation of your maturity, or it may be because I am your sister at the same table in junior high school, not a relative or friend, so you are relatively distant from me."

"But now I understand that you've just been avoiding my feelings for me. You dare not show it, and you dare not let me know."

"So you are deliberately avoiding unconventional contact with me."

"Then, I recalled what you said yesterday... You said, from the first moment you saw me, you felt that you and I were not from the same world."

"why?"

"I really want to ask, why?"

"I don't understand, is it because of the age difference between me and you? Or is it because of something else?"

Xu Wan felt that Jiang Hong's body stiffened the moment he leaned on her hand.

So, I subconsciously wanted to retract my hand.

The originally stiff hand grabbed it backhanded.

Carefully, she gently grasped one of her little hands.

Jiang Hong's hands were a little cold, but they were strong.

The feeling of electric shock that didn't appear in the first place flooded into my heart.

It made half of Xu Wan's body numb.

Yuan, so this is the feeling?
Is the electric shock transmitted on the Internet true?

No wonder Jiang Hong's body was stiff just now, he is also stiff now, okay?
This is really the most outrageous thing Jiang Hong has done to Xu Wan in history.

Even Jiang Hong himself didn't know why he grabbed her hand.

But unexpectedly, Xu Wan did not resist.

blushing.

It seems to be the default?
Afterwards, Jiang Hong came to his senses.

She's my legal wife... she's my legal wife...

There was a long silence.

Jiang Hong seemed to be talking, and also seemed to be soothing his mood.

"Ah, actually...it's very simple."

"I think the family backgrounds of our two parties are really incompatible. You may not know my family situation."

"I lived in the village when I was a child, and my parents came from the countryside to work hard in the second-tier cities."

"If my mother didn't really want a son, I might still be an orphan now. They are honest and don't know much about interpersonal relationships. They just work hard to earn hard money."

"Even so, their combined monthly income may not be as good as your pocket money... And this family has raised me and my sister, and there is never any spare money."

"Since high school, I have been working part-study, hoping to leave my little living expenses to my younger sister..."

"Do you think this you, this me... are really in the same world?"

to be frank.

The previous Xu Wan didn't think about this issue.

Because she really didn't feel that Jiang Hong was worse than herself.

Whether it is family or quality.

So the difficulties Jiang Hong encountered were not difficult at all in her eyes.

She stared blankly at Jiang Hong, and a smile like a lotus in full bloom suddenly appeared on her face.

Tighten your hand.

Hold your big hand firmly.

"Jiang Hong, then you don't have to worry about this problem in the future. This is an equal society, and there is no distinction between high and low."

"Of course, in your eyes, these three, six, nine, etc. are very important..."

"But I very much hope you can know that neither I nor my parents think so."

"Everyone is human, who is superior to whom?"

"Our family's ancestors were royal chefs in the palace. Fortunately, this skill has been preserved for more than 300 years, so my father is also a famous chef."

"A dish can command a sky-high price in the upper class, but my dad doesn't belong to that circle in essence. He used to be a low-class man of all kinds."

"He has been teaching me since I was very young, he was just a coolie, never a rich man."

"Do you understand this sentence?"

Jiang Hong was stunned when he heard that.

He did know before that Xu Wan's family was rich, and it was said that there was a restaurant with two Michelin stars.

More, he has not tried to understand, dare not understand.

He always thought.

The vision of the rich is very high, and they will pursue what is right for them.

He also read Shuangwen, and thought there would be some kind of discrimination, prejudice and the like.

But I didn't expect that these were all just my own wild thoughts?
Is it because I think too much?

"Indeed, our family relies on ancestral property and savings, so the starting point is high, which brings us a higher vision. It's true."

"But we're also making hard money."

"Because of this, whether it is my parents' family or our previous generation of elders, it is impossible to discriminate against the coolies. They will only empathize with them, sympathize with them, or more importantly appreciate them."

"Your idea may be correct, but it has been problematic from the very beginning."

"I am the same person as you, with two arms and two legs, a real person. Don't think that I am living a better life now, so I will naturally be taller than you."

"Over the years, have you seen me chasing luxury brands? Have you seen me trying to squeeze my way through the upper class?"

"Because I know very well that I don't belong to that world."

"In the future, I hope you don't have such thoughts, otherwise I will really be angry. My parents are your parents, and your parents are also my parents!"

"do you understand?"

In fact, when boys are young, they think about things and struggle with things.

It makes me laugh when I think about it later.

From the first time Jiang Hong saw Xu Wan, he labeled Xu Wan as "Bai Fumei".

So I have been staring at this label all these years, thinking that it is Gao Shan Yang Zhi.

But in fact, he didn't realize until the end that it was just a joke made by youth.

Fortunately.

Now, he was holding her hand tightly.
