Chapter 261 - The union of Liu and Jiang
Xiangyan was the fruit and foundation of their love, as well as the red line that linked them closely.
Mo Yichen had special feelings for Gu Yan at first sight. But at that time Gu Yan was deeply in love with another man. So, there wasn’t anything about love between them at that time.
Xiangyan was born without his mother by his side, but his name contained his mother’s name. His mother hoped to accompany him and make him grow up healthily and happily.
At that time, Mo Yichen just felt sorry for Gu Yan. She agreed with the surrogacy and kept the secret to save Wen’s family. He knew that she paid a lot for it, and he was also worrying about whether she lived well and whether she was misunderstood by others. And then came the name Mo Xiangyan.
...
Since Jiang Jingcheng regarded Assistant Liu as Chen Qian last time, they were closer to each other. Jiang Jingcheng increasingly felt that Assistant Liu was a good woman, but he did not love her.
They might be close friends if without Chen Qian. Unexpectedly, she liked him. Although they didn’t speak their minds, they tacitly admitted their relationship.
Wishful love was doomed to failure. The one who devoted himself always got hurt. Everyone hoped to have perfect love and a happy ending.
On Sunday, Assistant Liu asked Jiang Jingcheng out early, ready to go shopping. She wrapped around his arm and leaned on his shoulder, filled with happiness.
They walked through the crowd. She leaned against him with great joy. She screamed now and then when seeing the passing crowds and all the strange things in shops. When hearing her scream, Jiang Jingcheng felt impatient. Thinking about how to go on with this hard life, he had a worried look.
Life always seemed less than satisfactory. It seemed that you were living such a life that you disliked most. You didn’t like the one by your side, nor did you like what you were doing. But you had to go on with it.
At that time, he hated others’ bad attitude towards him and how others mocked his feelings. But now he had to do so to another innocent woman!
He disguised his feelings, tried to give a forced smile, and controlled his negative mood, hoping that he could finish the act and be more decisive when he left.
When they arrived at the shopping mall, she became more and more excited. Seeing these beautiful clothes, she tried them on one by one in excitement.
“Does it look good?” she asked with a shy face. When she walked out of the fitting room, she blushed, as if she was drunken.
Assistant Liu was in a one-piece blue dress. It was hard to find words to describe her figure. She swayed her tempting body from side to side in front of Jiang Jingcheng.
“You really have a good eye for good things. This is a new arrival of the fall limited edition, and it suits you very well. It indeed looks good on you.”
The shop assistant kept praising Assistant Liu, making her more blushful. Assistant Liu glanced at Jiang Jingcheng, finding that he was staring at the right front in a daze, with a hint of jealousy in his eyes. Assistant Liu was confused. She couldn’t figure out whether she or Jiang Jingcheng was feeling jealous.
Following the direction that he was staring at, Assistant Liu found Gu Yan and Mo Yichen, with a little boy around them. In the area for children’s wear, they excitedly dressed the little boy. They were as harmonious as a family of three.
Seeing Jiang Jingcheng’s expressionless face and dark eyes, Assistant Liu seemed to know something. From the beginning, she knew that Jiang Jingcheng had a special feeling for Gu Yan. It couldn’t be called love, but it was full of ambiguity. She knew all the things that Jiang Jingcheng did to please Gu Yan. He served her breakfast and tea. Although he was now her boyfriend, she felt sad and wanted to weep.
Assistant Liu in the blue dress slowly moved to Jiang Jingcheng with the help of the shop assistant. She softly called his name, “Jingcheng, Jingcheng, what are you watching?”
Jiang Jingcheng was startled when feeling the heat on his ear. His heart beat wildly and he wasn’t aware of what happened until he saw Assistant Liu staring at him with her eyes wide open.
“Uh-huh, you look so beautiful in it. No wonder it is a limited edition.” Jiang Jingcheng touched his chin and nodded with constant when looking at this dress.
“Please package it up. We’ll take it.”
Jiang Jingcheng stood up and passed the shop assistant a bank card. He kept on looking at the place where Gu Yan stood, finding only Gu Yan and the little boy were staying there.
“Jingcheng, what are you watching on earth?” Assistant Liu dragged Jiang Jingcheng’s sleeve and asked in a voice with coquetry.
“Nothing. I just saw an acquaintance. Nothing important.” Jiang Jingcheng gently looked at Assistant Liu and folded her in his arms, silently comforting her.
Assistant Liu looked at the place where Gu Yan stood. She felt that something was wrong, but it was just a feeling and she couldn’t find an explanation.
Suddenly Jiang Jingcheng’s phone vibrated in his pocket. He slowly pushed Assistant Liu away and picked out the phone, finding that it was a strange number. He picked up the phone.
“Hello, who’s that?” He asked gently at the presence of Assistant Liu. Nobody answered. After a while, when he was about to hang up, he heard a powerful reply, which was like a sword stabbing him in the heart. The caller made an appointment with him to meet. It seemed that Jiang Jingcheng offended him.
After hanging up, Jiang Jingcheng glanced at the phone number, finding that he never saw it before. “Damn it!” He shouted abuse. Offended by a stranger for no reason, he was filled with anger.
“Don’t be angry. It must be a crank call. Forget it.” Assistant Liu wrapped around his right arm, dragging him to leave.
Following the steps of Assistant Liu, Jiang Jingcheng looked again at the area of children’s wear where Gu Yan stayed just now and found that they left. Assistant Liu observed it.
Considering that her relationship with Jiang Jingcheng just relieved, she decided not to mention it. She cleaned her throat, tried to cheer up and then continued to go shopping with Jiang Jingcheng happily...
