During the thirteen hours of flight, Shen Yansheng hadn't eaten at all, his face was pale and pale with hunger, and his eyes were a little red because he had just cried, and he looked very pitiful.

Lu Jingce felt distressed, and when he left the airport, he took her to eat first.

But perhaps because she hadn't eaten for too long, Shen Yansheng's appetite was not very good, and she couldn't even eat her favorite egg tarts.

Lu Jingce took a wet tissue to wipe the tears on Shen Yansheng's face, and said distressedly, "What time did you eat last night? Why didn't you eat something on the plane?"

Shen Yansheng's eyes were still a little red, and she looked at Lu Jingce and said, "I don't want to eat. At that time, I was thinking, why time passes so slowly, why there is no plane, and why I can't see you yet."

Thinking of this, Shen Yansheng felt very sad.

Even thirteen hours felt so long. She didn't know how Lu Jingce's thirteen years came to pass.

She took Lu Jingce's hand, looked at him with tears in her eyes, and asked softly, "Lu Jingce, why didn't you tell me earlier, we met more than ten years ago."

In this way, Lu Jingce fell in love with her much earlier than Fu Shiyu. If love needs to come first, then why not Lu Jingce.

Lu Jingce raised his hand and gently stroked the little red mole under Shen Yansheng's right eye. He looked at her and said softly, "So what if I tell you? I remember you, I love you, it's all my business. I don't need you for it. I have been responsible for my feelings for the past ten years, and loving you is what I am willing to do. Besides, you have fallen in love with me now, and you are already by my side, and I am very content. "

Shen Yansheng couldn't help crying, she leaned into Lu Jingce's arms and wanted to say something, but she felt sour and sad, her throat seemed to be blocked by sand, and she couldn't say anything.

She didn't know how to respond to Lu Jingce's affection, so she could only hug him firmly and never leave him again in this life.

After eating, Shen Yansheng went to the bathroom to wash his face, adjusted his mood, and came out with a smile on his face.

When she saw Lu Jingce waiting for her by the car, she rushed into Lu Jingce's arms as soon as she left the restaurant.

Lu Jingce hugged her, his lips curled into a smile unconsciously, looked down at her, and asked, "Are you really full? Do you want to eat something else?"

Shen Yansheng looked up at Lu Jingce, shook his head with a smile, and said, "Don't eat, I'm happier than anything when I see you now."

Hearing this, Lu Jingce raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at her with a half-smile, and said, "Suddenly your mouth is so sweet?"

Shen Yansheng smiled, looking at Lu Jingce's eyes as if filled with stars, and said, "If you like to listen to it, I will tell you a lot of love words every day from now on."

She tiptoed close to Lu Jingce's ear and said softly, "I love you, Lu Jingce, I love you so much."

Lu Jingce put his arms around Shen Yansheng's waist, he lowered his head, and in places where Shen Yansheng could not see, the corners of his eyes and brows were filled with a smile.

Because Lu Jingce was in a hurry to pick up Shen Yansheng at the airport, he still had some things to do, so he took her home after dinner, carried her suitcase into the room, and said, "I still have some things to do, so I'll go out and deal with it now. , at most two hours. You are tired after flying for more than ten hours, go to sleep first, and I will be back when you wake up. "

Seeing that Lu Jingce was leaving, Shen Yansheng was very reluctant, raised her arms around his neck, and looked at him eagerly, wishing she could hang herself on him.

The two were standing at the door. Lu Jingce put his arms around her waist, his lips curled into a smile, and said, "What's wrong? Don't want me to leave?"

Shen Yansheng nodded honestly.

She looked at Lu Jingce without speaking, and her reluctance was written on her face.

Lu Jingce didn't want to, he bowed his head to kiss her, the two lingered by the door for a long time, and if they kissed for a long time, they really couldn't leave.

Lu Jingce let go of her reluctantly, and his warm lips pecked and kissed her on the lips twice, and then said hoarsely: "Be obedient, I'll be back in a while, if you have anything to say, we'll talk slowly at night. ."

Shen Yansheng also knew that if Lu Jingce didn't have something important, he would definitely not be willing to leave her at home alone. She looked up at him, nodded sensible, and said, "then I'll sleep for a while, so don't worry, come back when things are done, anyway, I'll wait for you at home."

Lu Jingce's throat was sore, he nodded and said, "Okay."

After more than ten hours of flying, plus she had been crying from last night to today, Shen Yansheng was indeed a little tired.

After Lu Jingce went out, she went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed into her nightgown, and got into the bed, intending to sleep for a while.

I originally wanted to sleep for an hour and get up before Lu Jingce came back, but who would have overslept as soon as I fell asleep, and it was already dark outside when I woke up.

She opened her eyes, saw Lu Jingce sitting by the bed, saw her waking up, the corners of her lips curled into a smile, and asked her, "Awake?"

Seeing Lu Jingce holding the Ping An knot in his hand, Shen Yansheng looked up at him and couldn't help laughing, "Are you watching?"

Lu Jingce smiled, hummed, and asked, "Where did you find it?"

"It's in your study. I accidentally knocked over the coffee cup yesterday, and when I squatted down to pick up the pieces, I saw this peace knot fell behind the curtain."

As she spoke, she sat up from the bed and said with a smile, "but you really hid it so deeply, if I hadn't discovered this peace knot, I wouldn't have known that you actually liked me for so many years. I always thought that you were with me. I'm just playing."

Lu Jingce glanced at her, smiled and teased her, "Who is as unconscionable as you."

Shen Yansheng sat on Lu Jingce's lap, put her arms around his neck, and said seriously: "Who asked you to talk to me about that kind of conditions at first, I really thought you were like those rich boys, whoever you like, throw money at you. That's it."

Lu Jingce raised his eyebrows slightly, put his arms around her, and said, "So you've been thinking about breaking up with me? Would you like to leave me immediately?"

Shen Yansheng heard Lu Jingce bring up the old story again, and explained, "Did you want to ask about the time you came back from Jiangcheng?"

Lu Jingce looked at her and did not speak, it was a default.

He really couldn't figure it out until now. At that time, he was fine in Jiangcheng, why did Shen Yansheng seem to have changed his personality when he came back, and obviously became very cold. Later, he even hid in Zhou Wanying's place and didn't go home.

On the night of her birthday, she was drunk. He picked her up when he got the call, but saw her with Fu Shiyu.

At that time, he really thought that the old love between the two of them was revived.

Speaking of this matter, Shen Yansheng was still a little aggrieved, and said, "Then you have to ask your childhood sweetheart's good sister."

She glanced at Lu Jingce with a bit of resentment in her eyes, and said, "I already liked you very much at that time, otherwise why would I come to Jiangcheng to find you?"

"It's your good sister, Miss Xia Xiaoyue, tell me personally, you have a first love, Bai Yueguang, who looks a lot like me. The reason why you looked for me is just to use me as a substitute."

"If I didn't like you at that time, I might have no feelings. The big deal is to be a woman who is being cared for. But who made me fall in love with you at that time, I heard Xia Xiaoyue say, you use me as a substitute I was really sad when I was there.”

"At that time, I broke up with you because I was afraid that I would continue to fall in. If I love you more and more, but you have someone else in your heart, wouldn't I be very pitiful?"

After hearing this, Lu Jingce's face became a little ugly, he frowned and looked at Shen Yansheng, "You didn't know you came to ask me?"

Shen Yansheng said: "How dare I ask you. If you say yes, wouldn't I be more pathetic?"

Lu Jingce didn't know whether to be angry or to laugh. Looking at Shen Yansheng, he said amusedly, "So you started to be jealous at that time? Or do you eat your own jealousy?"

Shen Yansheng snorted, with a little secret sweetness in her heart, and said, "How did I know back then that your Bai Yueguang's first love was me."

As he spoke, he suddenly reached into Lu Jingce's suit pants pocket and felt it.

Lu Jingce raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "What are you touching?"

Shen Yansheng didn't speak, and after a while, he took out his wallet.

She opened it and looked at it for a long time, but she didn't find the photo Pei Xin said.

She looked up at Lu Jingce and said, "You have a picture of me in your wallet when you published a novel, why not?"

Lu Jingce smiled, reached out and took the wallet and threw it on the bedside table, saying, "I haven't put it in my wallet for a long time."

"Why?" Shen Yansheng asked subconsciously.

"What do you think? If I were still in my wallet, wouldn't you have discovered it early on?"

"Isn't it bad for me to find out?" Shen Yansheng said, "Then didn't I know you liked me early on?"

"Not good." Lu Jingce raised his palms and put his hands on the back of Shen Yansheng's neck, and lowered his head to kiss her. A warm kiss sealed Shen Yansheng's chattering little mouth.

However, Shen Yansheng also reacted to this warm kiss after realizing it.

There was an overwhelming sweetness in her heart. When Lu Jingce leaned over and pressed him onto the pillow, she put her hands around his neck and laughed until her chest vibrated. She looked at him and said, "Lu Jingce, you are so arrogant."

Even if she likes her, she refuses to admit it. She has to wait until she confesses before admitting that she has loved her for many years.

Lu Jingce couldn't hang on his face, he kissed Shen Yansheng more deeply, his voice was a little hoarse, and said, "Why are you talking so much today."

Shen Yansheng smiled, hooked Lu Jingce's neck, raised his head and took the initiative to meet him.

That night, Shen Yansheng was unusually active, causing Lu Jingce to lose his defense several times. When he finally turned over and covered Shen Yansheng under him, he gritted his teeth, "Shen Yansheng, you are a goblin."

Shen Yansheng smiled sullenly, stroked Lu Jingce's handsome face, and said a little proudly, "Yes. Otherwise, how could I hook you."

It was cloudy and rainy all night, and the next morning, when Shen Yansheng woke up, it was already three poles in the sun.

She touched the phone on the bedside table and checked the time, and found that it was almost twelve o'clock.

She got up from the bed in a daze, and came out of the bedroom with bare feet. Seeing Lu Jingce talking on the phone and cooking in the kitchen, she walked over, hugged Lu Jingce from behind, and put her face on his back. superior.

Lu Jingce freed one hand to hold Shen Yansheng's hand around his waist, and said to the person on the phone, "I'll come over later, and talk about it later."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Jingce pulled Shen Yansheng in front of him. Seeing that she was so sleepy that her eyes still hadn't opened, she couldn't help laughing and smoothed her hair, "You haven't woken up yet?"

Shen Yansheng let out a muffled "uh", buried her face in Lu Jingce's arms, and hugged him with both hands.

Lu Jingce laughed, letting Shen Yansheng make up for sleep in his arms.

He put his arms around her waist and lowered his head to kiss her in her hair tenderly.

After a while, Shen Yansheng finally raised his head from Lu Jingce's arms, looked at him and asked, "Are you going out in a while?"

Lu Jingce said "um" and said, "Have some things to talk about with friends, and have lunch by the way, you can go too."

Shen Yansheng was thinking about Lu Jingce going out just now, and she was about to die of boredom again. When she heard that Lu Jingce asked her to go with her, her eyes lit up and she asked, "Can I go?"

Lu Jingce smiled and said, "You can go if you want, there's nothing you can't go."

He held Shen Yansheng with one hand, reached out with the other to turn off the fire on the stove, and said, "Drink the milk first."

Shen Yansheng glanced sideways at the milk pot, then looked up at Lu Jingce, and said coquettishly, "I want to drink iced milk, it's so hot today."

"No." Lu Jingce said, "I have diarrhea every time I drink ice milk, have you forgotten?"

Shen Yansheng pouted.

Lu Jingce poured out the milk for Shen Yansheng, then led her back to the room, and said, "Wash up first, the milk is just cool for a while."

Shen Yansheng let out an "oh" and obediently followed Lu Jingce into the bedroom to wash.

Entering the bathroom, Shen Yansheng accidentally saw several used items in the trash can, and unconsciously remembered last night in her mind, her face flushed red for a moment, her heartbeat was a little faster.

Lu Jingce stood by the washstand and squeezed toothpaste for her. When he looked up, he saw Shen Yansheng blushing like an apple.

He subconsciously glanced at the trash can beside Shen Yansheng's feet, reacted clearly, couldn't help laughing, handed her the toothbrush, and teased her, "Aren't you very brave last night?"

Reaching out and pinching Shen Yansheng's face, he smiled and said, "Why do you still know how to blush at this moment?"

With a toothbrush in her mouth, Shen Yansheng glanced at Lu Jingce angrily, and said vaguely, "Who has your thick skin?"

Lu Jingce smiled, leaning on his pocket and looking at the doting smile in Shen Yansheng's eyes, he couldn't hide it.

Shen Yansheng finished brushing her teeth, washed her face again, and looked up to see Lu Jingce still laughing at her. She blushed even more, rushed over to hold Lu Jingce's face, and said fiercely, "You are not allowed to laugh."

Lu Jingce smiled, put his arms around Shen Yansheng's waist, lowered his head and kissed her.

It's all to blame for the condoms in the bathroom. The two of them kissed and then went off the gun and did it again behind the bathroom door.

For this reason, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon when the two went out.

In the dining room, Zhou Qiao was so bored that he was about to clear Xiaoxiaole. When he finally saw Lu Jingce come in, he raised his head and screamed, "Why are you here now? Don't tell me about the traffic jam."

Lu Jingce said calmly, "I've been delayed for something."

Zhou Qiao was about to speak when he suddenly saw Shen Yansheng who was with Lu Jingce.

Zhou Qiao had met Shen Yansheng in the supermarket in the highway service area a few years ago.

Moreover, he also knew that Lu Jingce and Shen Yansheng were together, but he didn't expect Shen Yansheng to come over.

He smiled and greeted, "Miss Shen, how are you?"

Shen Yansheng was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, "You know me?"

Entering the box, Lu Jingce helped Shen Yansheng open the chair, Shen Yansheng sat down, glanced at the man across from him, and didn't think he knew him.

Zhou Qiao smiled and said, "Of course I know you. You are A Ce's girlfriend, how could I not know."

Shen Yansheng pursed her lips and smiled, greeted politely, and said, "Hello."

"Hello, hello, my name is Zhou Qiao." Zhou Qiao was very enthusiastic and asked, "When did Miss Shen come? Are you going to spend a few more days here?"

Shen Yansheng smiled and said, "I only arrived yesterday. I'll go back with him when Lu Jingce is done."

Zhou Qiao said, "Then there are a few days left for Ah Ce. Ah Ce has a lot of entertainment industry here. Let him show you."

Shen Yansheng was a little surprised to hear this, and looked at Lu Jingce with bright eyes, "Really?"

Lu Jingce gave Shen Yansheng the menu and said, "Eat first, then take you out to play in the afternoon."

Shen Yansheng happily "um", took the menu and started ordering.

When ordering, Lu Jingce and Zhou Qiao started to talk about business.

They were talking about business matters, and the two of them didn't avoid her. Shen Yansheng sat next to him after ordering and listened. From the content of their conversation, she probably knew that Lu Jingce ran a restaurant, bar, racecourse, club, etc. Lu Jingce's current career focus is not here, Zhou Qiao usually takes care of these things, and Lu Jingce occasionally comes over to take a look.

Business matters, men talk endlessly, Shen Yansheng was still interested in listening at first, but after hearing it, he was not interested, and he concentrated on eating.

Although Lu Jingce was talking about things, he still glanced at Shen Yansheng from time to time. When he saw her eating a spicy chicken nugget, it was so spicy that he quietly fanned it with his hands.

Seeing that Shen Yansheng's favorite mango juice was finished, he called the waiter to add another sip.

Zhou Qiao watched from the opposite side, and suddenly realized that his light bulb seemed to have a bit of a large wattage.

Seeing Lu Jingce like this again, he couldn't help sighing in his heart. He had known Lu Jingce for ten years, and he had never seen him so gentle and patient with anyone.

Sure enough, no matter how indifferent a man is outside, he can become considerate and gentle in front of the woman he loves.

No wonder there is a saying that heroes have been saddened by beauty since ancient times.

When the meal was almost over, Lu Jingce went out to the bathroom.

Shen Yansheng had already eaten, and sat there drinking the last bit of mango juice.

Zhou Qiao sat across from him, looked at Shen Yansheng, and suddenly said with a smile, "Miss Shen, do you remember that we met a few years ago."

Shen Yansheng was stunned when she heard the words, looked up at Zhou Qiao, and asked suspiciously, "Is there any?"

Zhou Qiao smiled and said, "Of course there is. Not only me, but also Ah Ce."

Shen Yansheng was stunned when she heard the words, and asked, "Where? When?"

Zhou Qiao thought about it and said, "Six years ago, did you and your boyfriend drive to Florida by car, and did you buy something in the supermarket in the service area on the way?"

Shen Yansheng looked at Zhou Qiao in surprise, "How do you know?"

Zhou Qiao smiled and said, "Because we were there at the time. Don't you have any impression at all?"

Shen Yansheng shook her head, she really didn't remember seeing Lu Jingce in the United States before.

Zhou Qiao said, "But it's normal that you don't remember. After all, we were strangers to you at that time."

"When exactly, can you tell me?" Shen Yansheng really wanted to know how much Lu Jingce had done for her in a place she didn't know.

Zhou Qiao said: "Think about it. When you were picking something in front of the shelf, did two men come in to buy cigarettes?"

Shen Yansheng was stunned for a while, she thought quietly.

But she really doesn't remember a lot of what happened six years ago. If Zhou Qiao hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't even remember that she had bought something in the service area at that time, and she didn't even notice the two men who bought cigarettes.

Zhou Qiao looked at her and said, "Then you still remember the shooting in Brooklyn, right?"

Shen Yansheng was stunned for a moment, then raised his head abruptly and looked at Zhou Qiao.

She opened her eyes wide and asked in shock, "How do you know?"

Zhou Qiao smiled and said, "I also know that someone rescued you at that time, right?"

Shen Yansheng was stunned. She looked at Zhou Qiao and asked, "It was Lu Jingce, right? Did Lu Jingce save me?"

Zhou Qiao said, "Have you noticed that Lu Jingce has a scar on his right shoulder?"

Shen Yansheng nodded immediately, "Yes. I asked him, and he said it was accidentally burnt."

Zhou Qiao smiled and said, "Do you think that looks like a burn?"

Shen Yansheng shook his head subconsciously. She didn't feel it, but Lu Jingce didn't say anything, so she didn't ask.

Zhou Qiao said: "It was a gunshot wound, the scar left by the bullet. If he hadn't knocked you down in time, the bullet would have stayed on you."

After coming out of the restaurant, Zhou Qiaoyou left beforehand.

Lu Jingce led Shen Yansheng to stand outside the restaurant and asked her, "Where do you want to go in the afternoon?"

Shen Yansheng held back her tears and looked at Lu Jingce. She smiled hard and said, "It's all right. As long as I'm with you, I can go anywhere."

Lu Jingce looked at her with a smile in his eyes, teasing her, "Go to the ends of the earth?"

Shen Yansheng nodded firmly. She looked at Lu Jingce and couldn't help but shed tears and said, "Shangqiongbi falls to Huangquan, I will go wherever you go."

It was already mid-July when I returned to Beicheng. At that time, Lu Jingce was a little busy, with a lot of dinner parties and entertainment.

One Saturday morning, Shen Yansheng went to the Nanta Temple alone and knelt before the Bodhisattva for an hour.

She looked at Bodhisattva's solemn treasure and prayed devoutly—

Believe in the daughter, my lover is lonely for half of his life and suffers all the hardships. May the bodhisattva be merciful and bless him with peace, health and prosperity in the rest of his life.

If there are still ups and downs in the rest of your life, please let me go through it on my behalf.
