News of their marriage spread like wildfire

ked down on Gu Changqing, and had to admit that some of Gu Changqing's words were right.His relationship with Wen Man, seemingly equal, was actually her constantly making concessions! Because of the h...Huo Jiao whispered, "I don't know what to say!"

After that, he said nothing more. He simply pressed her gently against his chest, letting her hear the beat of his heart. He felt comfortable and peaceful being with her.

Perhaps it's because we grew up in the same environment!

Besides the conflict last time, they really wouldn't argue. The past boredom felt completely different now, it was very comfortable...

After embracing for a long time, he leaned down and kissed her.

Dinner was about to be served, and of course he wouldn't start a real fight at this time. However, his anger was palpable as he rubbed his fists together. A servant knocked on the door: "Lan, Master, is dinner ready"

Jiang Lan lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms.

At this point, both of them were a little uncomfortable. Huo Jiao's shirt had been unbuttoned by him, revealing a patch of black lace. He wasn't a saint, but he was considerate of her, so he just kissed her on the lips and called out to the aunt outside: "That's enough!"

Footsteps sounded at the door, it was Auntie coming downstairs.

Huo Jiao pushed him up.

He propped himself up on one elbow, a smile playing on his lips as he helped her button her shirt. He gazed at her disheveled hair and the lingering haze of desire in her eyes, unable to resist gently stroking her cheek. "I'll feed you again tonight."

Huo Jiao kicked him.

Although she pretended not to care, they all knew that she was attracted to his body. She enjoyed hugging and kissing him, and even doing those things.

But women are always reserved.

They went downstairs to eat, the atmosphere was good. Jiang Lan felt much better after his nap, he chatted a lot with Huo Jiao about his interesting experiences studying abroad. These were things he rarely talked to her about in the past...

Their last relationship was all business, rarely this tender.

He even opened a bottle of red wine.

They don't rush, they just enjoy this moment, they don't even think about the future, only this moment is happy...

He also knew he had quietly won her heart.

After dinner, he said that the movie he had just watched was good and invited Huo Jiao to watch it again. Huo Jiao didn't refuse coyly... She basically stayed overnight here tonight.

They shared a body on the sofa.

They embraced warmly, and later he changed the channel on the TV to watch the news.

The financial news reported their marriage, and he looked down at her to see if she wanted to do damage control. Huo Jiao whispered softly that it wasn't necessary... she didn't say anything about him treating her well.

Promises, forever fall short of reality.

Huo Jiao chose to be loyal to her own feelings.

They didn't have grand, romantic declarations anymore, but there was a spark of something more than before. Jiang Lan understood, deep down, that they were meant to be together...

At a suitable time, the Jiang family paid another visit to the Huo family and finalized the marriage arrangement.

News of their impending nuptials is spreading like wildfire.

This was a satisfactory outcome for everyone, except one person: Song Qingqing.

She went to study, her heart filled with hope.

She thought that once she read it out and started working at the Jiang Group, she could still stay by Jiang Lan Ting's side, and they would still have a chance to be together. However, she didn't expect that in less than two months, Jiang Lan Ting was going to get married to Huo Jiao...

How could she accept that

Jiang Group.

Jiang Lan was dealing with some files when Anna knocked on the door and came in. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mr. Jiang, Song Qingqing wants to see you! I tried to persuade her, but she still won't leave."

Jiang Lan was slightly startled, then he put down the gold pen in his hand and said after a moment of thought, "Let her come in!"

Anna went out to ask someone.

After a moment, Song Qingqing walked in. She had dressed up especially, but she still looked haggard, a clear sign of the torment she'd endured these past few days. The first thing she said to Jiang Lan when she saw him was: "You're going to marry her"

Jiang Lan sat behind the desk.

He was impeccably dressed, with a distant look on his face, not a trace of the tenderness he once possessed!

Jiang Lan listened and softly replied, "Yes."

Song Qingqing's voice faltered: "You don't love her at all! You married her only because your families are well-suited, Jiang Lan. I heard you once said that being with me was interesting and novel."

"I love her now!"

Jiang Lan heard the straightforward answer, he looked at Song Qingqing, guessing her thoughts and asked her: "Do you have any requirements You can put them forward."

He is willing to pay the price for his past, even if he didn't end up with her.

He didn't want Song Qingqing to pester Huo Jiao any longer.

So, he conceded.

Song Qingqing bit her lip and whispered, "I want to go abroad. I ask you to visit me at least twice a year. I also hope we have children!"n, and Lu Garden quietly awakened, brimming with fresh vitality.The kitchen was bustling.Lu Qian made breakfast himself, and Xiao Lu You was helping. She couldn't do much, but she just liked to be aro...
