Lin Jiang didn't expect that he would fall asleep.

When I woke up, I was still a little confused. I was used to lifting the quilt, but I found that my body was being restrained by the safety belt.

After being dazed for a while, Lin Jiang finally remembered that Huo Congzhou had used their intimate photos to force her to go downstairs and have supper with him.

But there will be no one in the car.

Lin Jiang found Huo Congzhou at the door of "Youjia Food Stall" on the street.

Beneath him is a cheap red plastic stool, and there are several bottles of beer piled on the folding table in front of him.

The boss behind him sprinkled a handful of seasonings on the barbecue grill, and a burst of flames burst out, with smoke rising.

Full of fireworks.

Huo Congzhou's body revealed a coldness that was incompatible with his surroundings.

The whole body seems to be wrapped in mist, making people want to peek.

Perhaps sensing her gaze, Huo Congzhou turned his head and looked over.

His eyes were very light, as if there was nothing in them, but they seemed to contain a lot.

Lin Jiang's breath couldn't help but freeze.

A car away, she looked up at him.

Their eyes collided, as if eight years had passed by in a flash.

Long, yet short.

Something seemed to be fermenting in his heart, and Lin Jiang didn't want to pursue his deepest thoughts.

Driven by her thoughts at this moment, she unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car, sitting down opposite Huo Congzhou.

"drink?"

Lin Jiang pushed a glass over.

After a glass of wine, the boss came over with skewers, glanced at the sleepy Lin Jiang, and said with a smile, "Your husband is afraid that you won't be able to eat hot food, so he asked me to grill it later."

"I didn't expect you to wake up as soon as it was baked. The time was just right for me!" The boss gave Lin Jiang a thumbs up.

"You two, please eat slowly. If you don't have enough, please wait." After saying that, he turned around and entered the store.

Even the talkative Lin Jiang couldn't pick up the conversation.

The words of explanation reached my lips and I swallowed them alive.

Huo Congzhou, on the other hand, seemed to turn a deaf ear from beginning to end, as if the boss's words had nothing to do with him.

It seems...it doesn't matter if others mistake them for husband and wife.

Because he didn't care who Lin Jiang was to him.

At four o'clock in the morning, the streets were empty, except for the occasional car passing by.

But in this small corner, there were only her and Huo Congzhou.

The quiet air was a bit uncomfortable, and his thoughts drifted to Huo Congzhou and then back to the past.

When I was in high school, Huo Congzhou's grandmother also sold barbecue, but on a small cart.

Every time after school, Lin Jiang would follow Huo Congzhou to a small stall, saying that he was helping his grandma to serve the customers, but he ended up eating non-stop.

Huo Congzhou always said with a cold face, "Don't eat it."

Lin Jiang chuckled, pleasing and well-behaved, "It's not like you won't pay, right, grandma?"

"Eat whatever you want, grandma won't charge you."

…

Thinking of this, Lin Jiang's eyes couldn't help but feel sore.

Huo Congzhou was a man who said he didn't hate or mind, but he could always stab people with a knife easily.

She picked up a bunch of crispy pork belly and took a big bite, trying to hide her inner guilt.

The boss's skills are very good, the outside is crispy and the inside is tender and crispy, but it doesn't have the satisfying feeling of biting into it that Lin Jiang remembers.

She chewed slower, stopped what she was doing, and raised her eyes to look at Huo Congzhou.

Huo Congzhou was also looking at her.

"Grandma, she..." Lin Jiang reluctantly opened her lips.

"Does it have anything to do with you?" Huo Congzhou interrupted her coldly.

I found out that my grandma passed away five years ago, and it was her fault for half a year.

She contacted Huo Congzhou, but his number... couldn't be reached.

Faced with Huo Congzhou's cold questioning, Lin Jiang couldn't say a word of defense. She suppressed the sourness in her nose and said somewhat helplessly, "I'm sorry."

This was the first time that Lin Jiang apologized to Huo Congzhou for everything he had done in the past.

But these three words were like thorns piercing Huo Congzhou's switch to suppress his anger.

He raised his head and downed a glass of beer, put down the glass, and said with cold eyes, "No need."

"She's not anyone like you."

Lin Jiang wanted to say no, grandma was also her relative.

But Huo Congzhou's eyes were so cold, as if he could freeze everything.

"I……"

His throat was getting worse. Lin Jiang breathed hard, and a low-pitched request escaped from his throat, "Can I go see grandma?"

Huo Congzhou's cold gaze still fell on Lin Jiang's face.

Lin Jiang's pale face was covered with tears, her auspicious eyes were red, her slender neck was vulnerable, and she looked like she was being slaughtered.

Just like that beautiful and fragile little Jiaojiao when she fell in love on the bed.

But in fact, no one knows Lin Jiang's cold-bloodedness better than Huo Congzhou.

People cannot be resurrected after death, nor can love be revived after death.

Huo Congzhou's eyes narrowed, his anger faded, and he said to the shop owner, "Pay the bill."

After paying, he turned around and didn't even give Lin Jiang a glance.

Almost subconsciously, Lin Jiang put on her slippers and chased after him.

Before anyone could catch up, he fell to the ground first.

Lin Jiang felt that his mandible was about to break, and he gasped in pain, but Huo Congzhou was already a hundred meters away.

Forget it, a white-eyed wolf is a white-eyed wolf.

She has never even gone to worship her father.

Enduring the pain and tears, Lin Jiang struggled to get up, but could not pick it up for a long time.

After a while, Lin Jiang tried again.

In his sight, he fell into the black toes of Huo Congzhou's shoes.

The man's low-pitched voice hit the top of his head, "Bitter meat plan?"

Lin Jiang pursed his dusty lips, curled up his fingers, and pretended to be calm, "Huo Congzhou... you accepted 50,000 yuan from me."

"so?"

"Hel me up..."

Huo Congzhou said calmly, "That's another price."

Knowing that Huo Congzhou was setting the hook, Lin Jiang still bit it, "What?"
