    ?

    Since there was a heavy snowfall on Christmas night, the next few days were sunny, but the temperature was not high.  Winter in Beijing is cold and dry, with biting winds, and the temperature of minus nine degrees in the morning makes it difficult to get out of bed.

    Jian Ling was woken up by the alarm in the morning. She stretched out her hand to touch the quilt until the phone was turned off. She fell back to sleep and pulled the quilt up to cover her head.

    Five minutes later, the second alarm rang on time. Jian Ling felt that she had taken a nap in such a short period of five minutes, and was suddenly awakened, and reached out to turn it off again.

    After repeating it three times, she got up and put on her clothes in a leisurely manner. She fumbled for the remote control to open the curtains. It was a foggy sky outside, and she didn't know whether it was going to snow or rain.

    Jian Ling yawned long and lazily, and went to the bathroom to wash up. Recently, she was very busy with planning projects, and her schedule was out of order again.

    In the past, it was group work. Everyone in a group had their own division of labor, and they were still busy.  Now it is a personal plan, and a meeting will be held in half a month to publicly compare the draft, both in terms of time and energy.

    Jian Ling was moved by her non-stop spirit like a spinning top. Back then, she was still a carefree rice bug who didn't know what work was.

    "well¡­¡­"

    Jian Ling sighed in a long tone, washed her face, felt refreshed, and went downstairs to have breakfast.

    There are still a few days before the draft competition. She has almost finished planning the case, and needs to be perfected in the remaining few days. She cannot relax.

    After eating a sandwich, the phone on the table rang. It was an invitation for a video call. Jian Ling clicked on it, her cheeks puffed up, and she greeted vaguely: "Mom, why did you call me so early?"

    In the camera, Ye Xianxin is wearing a gray-purple tight-fitting yoga suit, and she still maintains a slender figure in her forties.  Apparently she had woken up early and done a set of yoga moves, sweat dripping down her forehead and neck.

    "Are you having breakfast?" Ye Xianxin sat cross-legged on the yoga mat, panted and wiped her sweat with a towel, and started to talk about business, "Are you working overtime tonight? Would you like to accompany your mother to visit an aunt's house?"

    The mother and daughter have very similar personalities. When begging people, they are used to having a coquettish tone. It is difficult for people to refuse questions such as "Is it okay" and "Is it okay?"

    Jian Ling took another bite of the sandwich, and the crumbs fell on the plate in front of her. She wiped the corner of her mouth, chewed slowly, and thought about how to refuse.

    She didn't want to be a guest at a strange aunt's house, not because of stage fright, but because she was a little tired in the past few days, and she just wanted to go home early to rest after get off work.

    Ye Xianxin looked at her frowning brows, and guessed what she was going to say: "You don't think I want you to go on a blind date, do you? Don't worry, you just accompany me to walk away. Besides, that aunt  My only child has a girlfriend, and you also have a boyfriend, and my mother is not such an unreliable person."

    "It's not about this." Of course she knew that Ye Xianxin would not introduce her to someone knowing she had a boyfriend, "I really don't have to work overtime tonight, but I want to sleep, and I haven't slept well these days."

    "Is that so" If that's the case, Ye Xianxin didn't know what to say. After a moment of silence, she decided to put her body first, "You just stay at home and have a good rest. I'll go there alone. Sigh, that's it.  That aunt said before that she wanted to see you, if you don't come, I have to think of a decent reason to explain it to others."

    Jian Ling heard Ye Xianxin mention that like-minded aunt more than once, and now hearing her regretful tone, she couldn't bear it, so she changed her words: "Okay, okay, I'll go with you."

    Ye Xianxin's eyes flashed with joy: "Really?"

    Jian Ling: "Well, I was busy a while ago, but I won't be so busy next time, and I have plenty of time to catch up on sleep."

    Ye Xian was full of joy, and asked Jian Ling to send a message before she got off work. She asked the driver to pick her up at the company, so that she would not have to take a taxi by herself¡ª¡ª

    In the afternoon, after finishing her get off work, Jian Ling was the first to leave the planning department and took the elevator downstairs.  The driver was already waiting on the side of the road next to the company's main entrance, in the same position as before.

    Today there was a strong north wind, and as soon as I went out, all the bangs on my forehead were blown up, revealing my full forehead.  Jian Ling pulled up the scarf, covered half of her face, held her bangs with one hand, and walked forward against the wind with her head down.

    The phone in her bag vibrated, she paused slightly, took out the phone, the screen lit up, and Cheng Zhixu's news came into view.

    Orange Juice: "Haven't got off work yet?"

    Jian Ling lowered his eyes and typed while walking, paying attention to the road ahead from the corner of his eye, remembering that he had not informed him that he would not go home with him at night.

    Palm Mingzhu: "I'm going to visit an aunt's house tonight, so I can't be with you."sp; She will sleep for half an hour when the doorbell rang again in the living room downstairs.

    Auntie wiped her hands and went out from the kitchen, opened the door, and a gust of cold wind blew in, rolling flakes of snow on her face, making it hard to keep her eyes open.

    "Come in, it's cold outside." Auntie greeted him with a smile on her face.

    Cheng Zhixu went in and changed his shoes, and was surprised when he noticed the female guest in the living room.  If I'm not mistaken, this is Jian Ling's mother?

    He met Jian's mother at Ye Guizhou's wedding, because he didn't make his relationship with Jian Ling clear at that time, so he didn't rush to disturb the two elders.

    Cheng Zhixu didn't know why she was in his own home, so he quickly calmed down, walked forward quickly, and bowed slightly to say hello: "Hello, Aunt Jian, it's the first time we meet, I'm Cheng Zhixu."

    Ye Xianxin was stunned for a moment, opened her mouth and said "ah".

    On the side, Yu Zhijin looked shocked: "I haven't even introduced you yet, how do you know this is Mrs. Jane?"

    Cheng Zhixu's voice was smooth: "I met you at Ye Guizhou's wedding."

    Ye Xianxin stared at the man in front of him, as if he looked a little familiar. He was old and had a bad memory, so he didn't remember it for a while.  There were countless guests on Ye Guizhou's wedding day, and she had never seen many people in the business field. Maybe he was one of them, and she glanced at them that day?  I can only think so.

    Ye Xianxin: "I see."

    She still felt that something was wrong, and while thinking about it, she looked at Cheng Zhixu with considering eyes.  The man was tall and straight, and his black coat was crisp, with thick shoulders and back, and he had an outstanding temperament.  Not to mention the appearance, you don't need to look carefully, you can see that the facial features are correct and handsome.  The etiquette is also thoughtful when speaking, and he is a rare candidate for a son-in-law

    Forget it, my daughter already has a boyfriend, so I can't think too much about it.

    However, Cheng Zhixu thought that Ye Xianxin appeared here because Jian Ling had already told her about her situation in detail, and she came to investigate.

    Cheng Zhixu was full of travel and dust, wrapped in the cold air of ice and snow. After sitting for a while, he got up and said respectfully: "Aunt Jian, I'll go upstairs and change my clothes before I come back to chat with you."

    Ye Xianxin was so enthusiastic that Monk Zhanger couldn't figure it out, so he could only reply dully: "Okay."

    Cheng Zhixu got the answer, nodded slightly, and stepped upstairs.

    To be honest, Yu Zhijin was even more confused than Ye Xianxin. She knew her son. In the past, if a female guest came to the house, he would at most come over to say hello politely, and then avoided the study. When was it so hot?  Internet, but also to change clothes and come to chat with him?

    Too strange.

    After being silent for a while, Yu Zhijin still couldn't figure it out, and murmured: "Damn it"

    The aunt at home re-entered the kitchen and was just about to chop vegetables when she thought of something and hurried back, pointing upstairs: "Miss Jian is resting in the young master's room, I forgot!" (Remember this site website: www.  hlnovel.com
