There was a chuckle from Zhou Zheng'an, and Jiang Nan knew what his expression was like at this moment without turning her head to look. Her face was so hot that it was about to burn.
After a few seconds, Jiang Nan felt someone lying on the other side of the bed.
Zhou Zhengan hugged her from behind through the quilt, and the fragrance of plants and flowers from his body surrounded Jiang Nan.
The next second, Jiang Nan heard his voice, which was very shallow: "Your husband is really sleepy now. Please just sleep with your husband for a while."
Jiang Nan: "..."
She froze and didn't dare to move. Zhou Zheng'an's breath drifted across her neck and stirred her hanging hair, which was slightly itchy but not uncomfortable.
A few minutes later, Zhou Zhengan's breathing gradually became calmer. Jiang Nan knew that he had fallen asleep. She relaxed a little and lay on the bed for a while. At this moment, sleepiness also came over, and the two of them settled down in this posture. Go to sleep.
The room was quiet.
The wind blew up the gray gauze curtains by the window, and a ray of light shone in and fell on the photo of the boy on the desk.
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Zheng'an and Jiang Nan walked downstairs. Zhou Zheng'an's face looked a little relaxed as if he had just woken up, and his hair was a little messy. At first glance, he looked like he had just woken up. Compared with him, Jiang Nan looked It's quite normal to go up there.
When they came down, Zhou Zhixu happened to come out of the kitchen carrying dishes. She said dissatisfiedly to Zhou Zheng'an: "Didn't I say that you are in charge of the kitchen today? You didn't come down until dinner was almost ready."
Zhou Zhengan said "ha" and said calmly: "When did I say that I was in charge of the chef? Don't you play less?"
Two questions successfully made Zhou Zhixu shut up.
She had been playing mahjong all day today. To be honest, she didn't do anything. She just went into the kitchen and helped carry some dishes a few seconds before they came down.
"Xiao Jiang, have you rested? You're almost ready to eat." Mother Zhou came out with the last dish and greeted the couple who were standing halfway up the stairs.
Jiang Nan hurriedly responded: "Okay" and hurried downstairs. Zhou Zhengan followed her casually.
The meal in the afternoon was much richer than at noon, and Shen Li became much more active at the dinner table. The few hours of mahjong time strengthened her relationship with the family, and she was chatting more happily than anyone else at the moment.
Jiang Nan and Zhou Zheng'an are still the least talkative young people at the dinner table. They are like listeners at the dinner table. They only raise their heads and respond once or twice when their names are actually called, and other times they don't take the initiative to speak.
Zhou Zhixu and Ren Xianzhi, two active juniors, are very popular with the three elders. During the conversation, the topic of New Year's Eve came up. Zhou Zhixu said excitedly: "Brother, Nannan, we will go to the square to celebrate the New Year in a while." , do you want to go together?"
"It's too noisy, you go ahead." Zhou Zhengan quickly refused. In fact, Jiang Nan meant the same thing. She didn't like to go to crowded places.
"Tch, it's not interesting." Zhou Zhixu curled his lips.
"Then where are you going to celebrate the New Year?" Zhou Zhixu asked again.
Hearing this, Jiang Nan couldn't help but look at Zhou Zhengan, she was also a little curious.
Zhou Zheng'an didn't even raise his head and said calmly: "Go to Lianggang."
Lianggang is the best viewing platform in Beixin. It is halfway up the mountain and you can have a panoramic view of Beixin. If you watch the fireworks in the city, it must be the best location in Beixin.
The most important thing is that Lianggang is guarded and there is a limit on the number of people watching. You must have an invitation letter before you can go up. The invitation letter is actually a ticket. For the sake of the mountain environment, it is only sold once every three years, and it is sold internally. , I don’t even know when it was sold, let alone how much I paid for it.
Therefore, many people from Beixin have stayed in Beixin for most of their lives and have not necessarily been to Lianggang.
Zhou Zhixu's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said, "I want to go too."
"Not enough votes." Zhou Zhengan said ruthlessly.
Zhou Zhixu looked at her husband again, who nodded helplessly at her: "Okay, I understand."
This is what it means to be able to go. Zhou Zhixu was extremely happy and glanced at Zhou Zhengan provocatively.
Zhou Zhengan's expression did not change, he just said two words coldly: "An eyesore."
Zhou Zhixu stuck out his tongue at him.
This conversation and Zhou Zhixu's childish behavior made the three elders laugh. Zhou's mother said helplessly to Shen Li: "These brothers and sisters have never dealt with each other since they were young, and they have not changed since they grew up."
"This shows that the relationship is good." Shen Li said with a smile.
"..."
After the meal was finished, it was already dark. Zhou Zhengan and Jiang Nan wanted to send Shen Li back first. While Zhou Zhengan was taking the car keys and putting on his shoes, he raised his head and said to Ren Xianzhi, "You go first."
Ren Xianzhi replied "Yes"
Then Ren Xianzhi took Zhou Zhixu to Lianggang first, with Zhou Zhengan and the others behind.
Logically speaking, Ren Xianzhi and the others should arrive at Lianggang first. However, after their car stopped in Lianggang, Zhou Zhengan's car also stopped.
They met at the parking lot by chance.
Zhou Zheng'an didn't ask Ren Xianzhi why he had arrived just now. Instead, Jiang Nan stupidly asked Zhou Zhixu why he bumped into them who arrived late.
Zhou Zhixu blushed for a moment and Ren Xianzhi also acted very unnaturally.
"That...is..." Before Zhou Zhixu could finish her words, Jiang Nan beside her was already being carried forward by Zhou Zhengan.
Jiang Nan was still a little confused and turned to ask Zhou Zheng'an: "Are you in a hurry?"
Zhou Zhengan glanced at her and saw her innocent face. He reached out and rubbed her hair and said, "If I don't take you away again, your sister-in-law will be anxious."
"Why?"
"..."
They walked all the way to the entrance halfway up the mountainside of Lianggang, where two middle-aged men in uniforms were standing guard. Zhou Zhengan led Jiang Nan over, took out his mobile phone and opened an interface for the men to see.
Jiang Nan casually glanced over and took a look. It was a screenshot of a QR code. There was a line of small words on the screenshot, but Jiang Nan didn't see it clearly.
The man just stared at the interface for a few seconds, without taking out the instrument to scan, then turned sideways and let them in.
Zhou Zhengan raised his head back, indicating that Ren Xianzhi, Zhou Zhixu and Xu were following behind, and he said, "We are together."
The man nodded.
When Ren Xianzhi and the others came over, just as Ren Xianzhi was about to take out his mobile phone to show his ticket code, the man waved his hand and let them in.
When Jiang Nan saw this scene, he turned around and said to Zhou Zheng'an: "So you have extra tickets. Then you said you didn't have any at the dinner table."
"Then how can we make everything go as per the girl's liking?"
Jiang Nan curled her lips and said, "Duplicity." She whispered.
Zhou Zhengan chuckled lightly but said nothing more.
They walked all the way to the observation deck pointed by the sign. This place was quite large and could not be seen to the end. Several people were already standing on it, and they all seemed to be lovers.
Compared to the crowded square at the foot of the mountain, this place is really quite peaceful.
It's just that the wind is a bit strong.
Jiang Nan's eyes were blown by the wind, and she walked to the side and behind Zhou Zhengan. Only half of her body and head were exposed. Zhou Zhengan led her to stand at the railing.
The view here is the best. You can see the endless sky when you look up, and you can see the lights of the city when you look down.
It's still more than twenty minutes before midnight.
Jiang Nan saw Zhou Zhixu and Ren Xianzhi coming not far away. They didn't come over and chose a good place to stand. The two were talking and laughing. They didn't know what Ren Xianzhi said. Zhou Zhixu even used his hands to give him a slap in the face.
"Jiang Nan." Zhou Zhengan recalled Jiang Nan's gaze.
Jiang Nan looked at him. In each other's eyes, their eyes were no less than the stars in the sky.
Zhou Zhengan's lips curled up slightly and he said, "It's New Year's Eve, do you have any wishes?"
Jiang Nan said: "I haven't made a wish on New Year's Eve yet. Will God see the wish I make on New Year's Eve?"
"Well... then you just think of it as the wish I gave you, and it has nothing to do with God." Zhou Zhengan looked at her deeply.
Jiang Nan raised her eyes and thought for a while, then shook her head at him and said, "I don't have any wishes right now." She couldn't think of anything for the time being. It seemed that there was nothing missing. With her lover by her side, her life was peaceful and her career was successful.
Zhou Zhengan pretended to think for a while, then lowered his head and took her hand and said, "Then I will make a promise to you."
The silent cold wind blew across their faces, and Jiang Nan's loose and silky hair lifted slightly, just for a moment.
A girl was shouting in the distance, her voice excited and exciting: "It will be midnight in ten minutes."
On this night full of expectations, Jiang Nan heard Zhou Zheng'an's clear voice, occupying all her thoughts.
"Then I hope we can see each other year after year and never be separated for the rest of our lives."
Zhou Zhengan was holding a bracelet he bought at some point in his hand. He gently put the bracelet on Jiang Nan's hand. His fingertips were a little cold, and the coldness penetrated into Jiang Nan's heart without any pain or itching. Jiang Nan's heartbeat accelerated a little bit.
All she saw was him.
It was a red bean bracelet. The color of the red beans was extremely beautiful. The thin diamonds inlaid on the bracelet were twinkling in the dark night. The chain was very thin and looked very suitable on Jiang Nan's wrist. It lined up with her hand. White and thin.
The bracelet means staying in love, which is very appropriate to the wish just now.
Jiang Nan lowered her head and stared for a few times. Her voice was so shallow that it was almost blown by the wind: "When did you buy it?"
Zhou Zhengan didn't reply to her, but just said: "Once you put it on, don't take it off easily."
Jiang Nan's eyes were a little moist for a moment, and her heart was full of touching sadness, but she didn't want to appear too pretentious. She said awkwardly: "How can you say that the wish you just made was given to me by you? What if God didn't witness it? Then he won’t help us achieve it..."
Her voice sounded like she was crying, hoarse, and she sounded a little anxious.
"I said, it has nothing to do with God. These things are what I will work hard to do. They are the direction of my efforts for the rest of my life. This will become my lifelong desire."
He said that spending every year with her is what he will strive for for the rest of his life.
