Chapter 67 Photos Carrying Memories

"What do you think?"

As a normal man, how could I not think about it?

Xu Zhe'an no longer needs to control his temper, and the look in his eyes is no longer just one of pure expectation.

"In that case."

Jiang Yun stopped talking and deliberately bent down in front of Xu Zhe'an, looking into his eyes quietly.

After a minute or two, she continued:
"No, you're dreaming."

This time her tone was highly suggestive.

"Ok?"

Xu Zhe'an pretended not to understand, avoided her gaze, and slowly stood up with his hands on the sofa.

"It's wrong to keep you in suspense. Today I have to find out if you have anything hidden about me."

"I didn't agree. If you dare to force your way in, I'll punish you."

Seeing this, Jiang Yun hurriedly held down Xu Zhe'an and gave him a warning look.

Having said that, she didn't show any determination at all.

"Ugh……"

Xu Zhe'an had no choice but to sit back in his seat and sigh repeatedly.

But sighing did not make Jiang Yun relax. He held his forehead with his hand and said in a deep voice:
"How can you not even meet my smallest request? It breaks my heart."

Jiang Yun secretly recorded Xu Zhe'an's appearance and tried hard not to laugh out loud.

After finishing her work, she nodded with satisfaction.

Then she sat down next to Xu Zhe'an and naturally put her arm around his.

"I didn't say I wasn't satisfied. I just wanted to record a video for you."

After saying that, she opened the photo album and held the phone in Xu Zhe'an's sight.

"...You are simply slandering my image of being tall and majestic."

When Xu Zhe'an saw his own appearance, he felt embarrassed and complained.

"is it?"

Jiang Yun took back her phone, swiped her fingers continuously, and after finding the photo she wanted, she coughed lightly.

"Then look who this is?"

Xu Zhe sat up straight, not very interested in Jiang Yun's words, but in order to cooperate with her, he still chose to look over.

"..."

It didn't matter that he took a look, but after seeing it clearly, his expression immediately turned into panic. The photo showed him as a child wearing a skirt after being coaxed by his mother.

"Sister Yun, let's discuss something."

He originally wanted to snatch it away, but Jiang Yun was very wary. When she released the photo, she was already sitting two body lengths away from him, so they could only negotiate and communicate.

"No discussion, no deletion. I'm going to keep this forever. It's so cute."

After Jiang Yun finished speaking, she shook her head with great pride.

However, she still knew that she had to comfort Xu Zhe'an appropriately, so she took out a key from her pocket and handed it to him.

"Na~"

The key that was within reach had become unimportant in Xu Zhe'an's eyes.

After all, the more people who have this photo, the greater the risk of it being leaked.

If it gets out by accident, I won’t be able to face people anymore.

"You don't have to see your room. I think it's better to delete that photo."

"No."

Jiang Yun snorted, pouted her lips, and said in a tough tone:
"I like this photo, there's no way I'm going to delete it. Besides, my aunt sent it to me specifically."

As soon as she finished speaking, she decisively turned off her phone and put it in her pocket.

A mute who eats Coptis chinensis cannot express his suffering.

Xu Zhe'an could only accept the fact and took the key from Jiang Yun's hand.

Helplessly said:
"Keep it if you like. My lifelong reputation is in your hands."

Jiang Yun chuckled and replied confidently:
"Don't worry, you're my boyfriend. How could I let anyone know about your embarrassing story? This belongs to me."

"Row."

Xu Zhe'an slapped his thigh, decided to put the photo matter behind him, and stood up and walked towards Jiang Yun's room.

Just as he inserted the key and was about to turn the door handle, Jiang Yun came over and helped Xu Zhe'an put on the mask hanging on his ears.

They hadn't been inside this room since they came here at noon, and she was afraid there would be a smell.

"If the person smells good, how bad can the room be?"

Xu Zhe'an took off his mask and turned the door handle. It didn't have the girlish look as imagined, but rather a rustic feel.

"annoying."

Jiang Yun felt a little embarrassed when she heard Xu Zhe'an's words, but she felt relieved in her heart. Her worries just now were indeed a bit unnecessary. After the door was opened, there was no strange smell, but a faint fragrance.

She hadn't been back for so long that she forgot she had left several sachets there, and she also left a gap in the window when she left.

Xu Zhe'an stood at the door and looked carefully at Jiang Yun's room. There was a small solid wood bed with a light blue bed curtain. The wardrobe, bookshelf and desk were also made of solid wood, and there were no signs of heavy use.

All in all, this room was well protected by her.

Seeing that Xu Zhe'an was late, Jiang Yun pushed him on the back.

When they entered the room, she pointed to her desk and introduced it to Xu Zhe'an:
"Four out of the five letters were written there. I've wanted to bring you here for a long time, but I couldn't find a reason and I was busy. Do you see it now?"

"I need to check it out."

Xu Zhe'an walked slowly towards the desk.

When I got closer, I saw a piece of glass on top, and some photos and newspaper clippings placed between the glass and the table.

Jiang Yun followed behind him and, seeing that he was engrossed in watching, she tapped the glass lightly with her fingers.

"Here I am, in the group photo taken at the end of kindergarten."

She pointed to the second little girl from the left in the first row and said.

This photo has been treasured for many years and has signs of oxidation, but because it is the first time she and Xu Zhe'an are in the same frame, she specially put a plastic cover on the photo.

Xu Zhe'an was shocked and deeply moved.

"I tried my best to recall it when I saw the letter, but it's been so long that I don't think much about it."

Jiang Yun blocked the group photo:
"Oh, I wish you remembered me now. During those years back home, I was outside chasing cats and dogs every day, so my skin got very tanned."

"What about this one?"

Xu Zhe'an pointed to a neatly cut square of newspaper and asked with a smile.

He knew the reason, but he didn't expect Jiang Yun to pay so much attention to him, even doing something like this.

"Silly, your entry into a competition and your winnings were featured in the local newspaper. Coincidentally, I stumbled upon it and cut out the content and photos."

Jiang Yun explained seriously that she remembered everything she knew about Xu Zhe'an very clearly.

Her fingers finally stopped and stroked the group photo of Science Class 1, her eyes filled with joy.

"This is my high school graduation photo. I took it home and put it away after it was handed to me on May 5st. I still remember someone got scolded by the photographer for switching positions with someone else."

"Isn't it worth it?" Xu Zhe'an looked at himself in the photo standing behind Jiang Yun. Although the wide-angle shot was very large, her dimples were very obvious, and her happiness could not be hidden.

"How should I put it? This was something I never dared to dream of back then. It's like you have the power to read my mind and just fulfilled my wish. Thank you~"

Jiang Yun narrowed her eyes, raised her hand and pinched Xu Zhe'an's face to help him brush away the dust.

"It's fine. Your room is just dusty. It will be cleaned up quickly."

Xu Zhe'an grabbed Jiang Yun's hand, looked around and expressed his opinion.

"Go and have a rest. I can handle it myself."

Jiang Yun, who had just been immersed in joy, came to her senses and made a suggestion to Xu Zhe'an.

Then he took out the gloves from his apron pocket and put them on, ready to continue cleaning.

How could Xu Zhe'an let her do it alone? He did the same thing as her and turned around to go out to get the basin of water.

After cleaning the room, the two of them rested on the sofa for ten minutes and then returned to Xu Zhe'an's home.

After dinner, the two of them sat on the balcony to watch the sunset as before.

However, the content of the conversation is no longer solely about study, but mainly focuses on interesting things that happened in the past and future plans.

Xu Zhe'an is planning to join a creator platform and sell the songs he remembers in his mind to earn his first pot of gold.

Jiang Yun also has her own plans. She wants to write her experiences over the years into a book and become a small writer.

But that was a matter for later. Her most pressing concern right now was finding a summer job to earn some visible income. After all, writing a book was slow and time-consuming. The investment wasn't guaranteed to pay off, so it was secondary.

During the hour, Jiang Yun was the main speaker. She had been holding back words for many years and wanted to say them all at once.

Xu Zhe'an didn't interrupt and listened attentively.

It's not like he hasn't done this before. In his previous life, he would go to see Jiang Yun whenever he had time and talk to her nonstop.

Jiang Yun didn't stop until the sunset was pushed away by the night.

She leaned on Xu Zhe'an's shoulder and asked with a little concern:
"Do you find me annoying?"

"will not."

Xu Zhe replied without hesitation.

Jiang Yun asked anxiously:
"Will you get tired of it in the future?"

She was afraid that if the restrictions were lifted, her possessiveness would be too strong, which would make Xu Zhe'an uncomfortable and affect their relationship.

This worry did not start today, but had been bothering her since she came back from the cemetery, and it had been bothering her for more than half a month.

"No, I haven't seen or heard enough."

Xu Zhe'an shook his head slightly, gently stroked Jiang Yun's face with his thumb, and answered word by word.

The affirmative answer made Jiang Yun stop thinking about it.

"As for me, I certainly won't do that."

After making the promise, she leaned close to Xu Zhe'an's ear and whispered:

"I want a kiss, can I?"

Hearing the tingling sound, Xu Zhe'an immediately turned his head and saw Jiang Yun pouting her lips and closing her eyes tightly.

Apparently, this was something that didn't require any thought, as he kissed her without hesitation.

Two newbies came on the road, and their skills were not up to standard.

After finishing, Jiang Yun put her hands behind Xu Zhe'an's neck and told him the plan she had thought about that afternoon:

"To prevent our novelty from wearing off too soon, during the first phase, we'll only have three kissing opportunities per day: once in the morning, noon, and evening. Each time should not exceed five minutes. Do you think that's okay?"

"not good."

Xu Zhe'an shook his head repeatedly and wanted to continue.

But Jiang Yun was quick-witted and gently pinched Xu Zhe'an's upper and lower lips.

"You have to give me a convincing reason, nod or shake your head."

Xu Zhe'an forced a smile and nodded.

After Jiang Yun let go, he explained in a serious manner:
"We both need to hone our skills more so that we can have a better experience. After all, practice makes perfect."

"The reason was not passed. It will be implemented starting tomorrow. Today's three times have ended."

After Jiang Yun finished speaking, she took off the hair tie from her hair, put it on Xu Zhe'an's wrist, and then instructed:
"Now you have a boyfriend, keep it."

She saw this while surfing the Internet and found it very interesting.

"You learn quickly..."

When Xu Zhe'an saw the pink bow next to the watch strap, he couldn't help but admire the power of the Internet.

Jiang Yun stood up, rubbed his face, and said:
"Take your time to experience it. I'm going to take a shower."

Xu Zhe'an didn't expect that once Jiang Yun took the initiative, he would be no match for her at all.

9 pm.

There were pieces of cut fruit on the coffee table. The two of them sat on the sofa watching TV. Jiang Yun put her legs on Xu Zhe'an and fed him a bite of food from time to time, but this state quickly returned to normal with the sound of the door opening.

Zhong Yuan's curiosity, which had been accumulating for a whole day, completely exploded after she entered the door. She didn't even have time to change her shoes and sat down next to Xu Zhe'an and asked him all kinds of questions.

If Xu Zhe'an didn't say anything, she would ask Jiang Yun. After much persuasion, she finally let them go. After reviewing the whole process, she gave the following evaluation:

Jiang Yun is more capable and more romantic than before.

……

As soon as the college entrance examination was over, time seemed to slow down again.

All day on the 10th, Xu Zhe'an couldn't resist Jiang Yun's desire to work part-time, so he went out with her for the day and found a job in a coffee shop.

Xu Zhe'an had completely forgotten what working life was like. When he first arrived on the 11th, he seemed a little flustered. Fortunately, he was talented and picked up the skills quickly.

Over the next few days, the story of the two spread throughout the store and then reached the customers.

The boss, who understands marketing, made the two of them living signs and named the coffee shop Love. In just a few days, it attracted many new customers, many of whom were students from No. 1 Middle School who came here because of its reputation.

Of course, the two of them were also paid a lot.

Although they are busy from morning to night, they don't feel tired because they rely on and support each other.

Ten days after the promotion, the coffee shop's customer flow stopped increasing and became stable.

It is already June 6nd, and there are only two nights left before the college entrance examination results are released.

The two people who came home from get off work had already changed into pajamas. Xu Zhe'an leaned on the sofa and watched the money-loving Jiang Yun counting money beside him.

After she finished counting, she smiled with satisfaction.

"At this rate, I can finish my tuition and the first two months' living expenses during the summer vacation, and even have a surplus, which is just enough to pay the bills."

Xu Zhe'an sighed helplessly.

"Then you need to come up with a new idea, or a gimmick, to attract more new customers to sign up as members."

The last time was purely an accident, and it wasn’t his own coffee shop, so the bulk of the traffic ultimately belonged to the boss.

"It's okay to take it slow, as long as I can earn some money. This is many times more than what I earned from my previous summer job."

Jiang Yun put the money in an envelope and planned to apply for a bank card later.

Then she grabbed Xu Zhe'an's hand and said:

"Thank you for your hard work these past ten days. After I finish my studies, I will work hard to earn money to support you, okay?"
