She Is From The Countryside

288 Chapter 288 eager to belong

when shi yan woke up, the sky was already bright.

looking out through the half-opened window, the fog in the mountains in the distance had mostly dispersed. it should be around nine o ‘clock and nearly ten o’ clock.

when she retracted her gaze, she realized that the person beside her was still sleeping.

jiang che had always woken up earlier than her, but today was an exception.

she leaned closer to him with her head on his arm so that she could see him more clearly.

He was originally a gentle person, but with his eyes closed, it covered the deep awkwardness of his peach blossom eyes, making him look even more elegant and gentle.

in the three years he had been away from the capital, he had not set foot in the capital.

now, he had gone back.

How would he feel when he returned to the capital?

it was said that the jiang family’s fifth lord was like the moon in the sky, not eating the food of the mortal world. there was nothing wrong with that. however, the reason why he did not eat the food of the mortal world was probably because he did not care about wealth and power. he might not really not care about his own family, especially his closest family.

it was just that if he didn’t express it, others wouldn’t be able to tell.

to some extent, they were actually the same kind of people.

after leaving the capital for so many years, no one understood how it felt more than shi yan when she set foot in the capital. For example, she had not taken a single step into the capital.

it wasn’t that she didn’t dare to, nor that she couldn’t. as for why, she actually didn’t know.

last night, he had only cared about the joy of meeting her and hadn’t thought too much about it. Now that she was awake, her mind was clear. She couldn’t help but think of Jiang Zhi’s words last night when he said he loved her deeply.

He had said it more than once and even pestered her to tell him that she loved him.

before she met jiang che, she was a person without a home. she was like a floating duckweed, able to survive no matter where she drifted. jiang che was no different.

Not everyone could be like him and not come out or see any guests for three years.

before he met her, jiang che was probably the same as before she met him.

it wasn’t that he couldn’t live, and he didn’t have any plans to die, he just wanted to live on.

she didn’t know what had happened in the two days he was back in the capital, or maybe nothing had happened. However, it was probably because nothing had happened that he felt a little upset.

for example, his return to the capital had caused a great deal of commotion. it was impossible for his biological parents not to know, yet they had not even come to see him once.

at the end of the day, jiang che had only been 22 years old when he left the capital three years ago. to an ordinary person, he would have just graduated from university.

He might not care much about his parents ‘love, but he might not care about it at all.

Returning to the capital after three years, he was probably also somewhat lost.

He felt that he had no place to belong and was eager to find one.

That was why he had expressed his feelings for her so straightforwardly and was so eager to get her response.

as she thought about this, shi yan gently raised her hand and placed it on his delicate face. she placed her palm on his face and rubbed it with her thumb. her movements were very light, as if she was afraid of waking him up.

he didn’t show any signs of waking up.

He wasn’t someone who slept so deeply. He probably didn’t sleep well these past two days in Jingdu.

shi yan’s heart ached a little as she looked at jiang che, who was sound asleep.

he was even more displeased with the people of the jiang family who had hurt him.

But it didn’t matter, she was still here.

since he wanted someone to belong to, she would give it to him.

If they had gotten a marriage certificate, he would be more at ease.

Unfortunately, he could not do it now.

after a while, when she was about to withdraw her hand from his face, he held her hand to his lips and kissed her fingertips. his eyes did not open, and his voice was a little hoarse from just waking up.”you’re awake?”

Only then did he slowly open his eyes to look at her.

“yes.”

“Are you still sleepy?” Shi Yan asked him.

he leaned over and hugged her tightly, burying his face directly in her neck. he actually looked a little clingy.”a little.”

shi yan’s heart instantly softened. she raised her hand to rub his short hair, and her voice couldn’t help but soften.”then you should sleep for a while. i’ll go buy you something to eat.”

She had been thinking about this since last night, afraid that he would be hungry.

Jiang che was in a very good mood.

his kisses landed on her neck, and he said, ” “no, let’s go eat together.”

shi yan helplessly agreed.

the two of them then stood up.

shi yan took a look at her mobile phone and saw that it was almost ten o ‘clock.

There was no phone call, but two messages from Ren Kexin.

he told her not to wait for them and to go out first. he told her and jiang che to call them if they wanted to look for them after they had eaten. if they didn’t want to look for them, they could go out and play alone.

The two of them took a quick shower and changed their clothes before going downstairs.

Shi Yan was wearing a more casual dress today. For the first time, Jiang che didn’t wear his usual shirt and trousers. He also wore a casual suit.

the two of them were obviously wearing couple clothes.

Jiang che had asked someone to prepare the clothes and put them in the cloakroom. There were many sets in the cloakroom, and Shi Yan had brought two sets with her when she packed her luggage.

Shi Yan’s long black hair hung down loosely. The two of them came downstairs hand in hand.

shi yan thought that everyone had gone out together, but she was a little surprised to see two people sitting in the living room.

Shi Bochen and Jing Xuan were sitting in the living room, and song Meilian was making tea for them in the kitchen.

shi yan and jiang che went downstairs. song meilian was coming out of the kitchen with three cups of tea.

“morning.” He said to Shi Yan.

only then did song meilian nod slightly at jiang che, who was standing beside shi yan, as a form of greeting.

shi bochen and jing xuan, who were sitting on the sofa in the living room, also raised their eyes to look at shi yan.

Seeing the couple’s clothes on them, Shi Bochen snorted, while Jing Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly. He probably felt that fifth master Jiang’s behavior was a little fresh.

speaking of shi bochen, he lived below shi yan.

The sound insulation of the wooden building was not that good. Although he could not hear clearly, he could still hear some movements.

he had tossed and turned last night, unable to fall asleep.

It wasn’t that the young man had been provoked to the point of being hot-blooded, he was just angry, so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

he was clearly unhappy, but he couldn’t do anything about it. Not only could he not interfere, but he could not say anything and had to pretend that he did not know anything.

This was the most sullen thing.

the feeling of being wronged was like watching a pig eat a cabbage. he wanted to fight, but he couldn’t. he had to hide and pretend not to see anything!

“fifth lord jiang,” Jing Xuan greeted Jiang che.

“master jing,” jiang che nodded slightly.

song meilian handed the tea to jing xuan and shi bochen and asked, ” “Shi Yan, I’m making tea for them. Do you want to drink? I’ll go make two more cups if you want to drink?”

“don’t bother, just sit down, i’ll get it myself.”

in the end, it was naturally not shi yan who did it. jiang che pulled her to the sofa and sat down, then turned and walked straight into the kitchen. He had wanted to heat up a cup of milk for Shi Yan, but when he saw that the kitchen was not fully equipped, he simply made two cups of honey water instead of tea.

Seeing this, Shi Bochen’s anger dissipated a little.

at least he knows how to take care of people!

“You guys haven’t had breakfast either?” Shi Yan asked while drinking the honey water.

“no, i didn’t,”

“i woke up a little late.” Song Meilian felt a little awkward after she said that.

they had stayed here for two nights.
