Chapter 606 - I’m Yours
Jiang Yu said, "Okay."
In the end, Feng Linbai was the one who was stunned again.
He said in a daze, "You said…okay?"
Jiang Yu immediately said, "Isn't that what you've always wanted me to say?"
Feng Linbai cleared his throat unnaturally.
"So, I said okay."
The little girl's clear and sweet voice rang out in the dark night, "But there's something I want to say first. If I give myself to you, you're mine. You have to listen to me."
Feng Linbai hugged the little girl in his arms tightly and said happily, "Yes, I'm yours. I'll listen to you."
Jiang Yu realized that her words did not seem to be accurate. She wrinkled her small nose and said, "I hate scumbags the most, especially those who cheat and use women. Do you understand what I mean?"
Feng Linbai replied smoothly, "I understand. You're talking about Feng Junhao and Ji Churan's father."
Jiang Yu: ...there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that, right?
She coughed and said, "I've never had any experience. You can tell me if I've done something wrong.
"Also, if you don't have any more feelings toward me in the future and you want to leave or break up with me, I have no objections. You can speak honestly and don't lie."
Feng Linbai's heart tightened and he immediately said, "I won't break up with you.
"I won't leave you.
"Not in this lifetime."
Jiang Yu asked in a muffled voice, "And how can you be so sure?"
She asked in confusion, "Don't people's feelings change?"
For example, Father Jiang and Mother Jiang.
Jiang Yu believed that perhaps at the beginning, the feelings between the two of them were real. Father Jiang had truly loved Mother Jiang from the bottom of his heart.
But it couldn't compare to the passage of time.
The human heart was unpredictable. What could forever be unchanged?
Even she wasn't sure.
How long could a relationship with a person last?
Feng Linbai ruffled the little lady's head and replied softly, "Because it's you."
"Apart from you, I don't want anyone else."
His heartbeat gradually calmed down as he felt the warmth of the little lady in his arms. He only felt that the wind on that winter night was so gentle.
"Before I met you, I never believed that there would be a day where I would want to spend my life together with someone. Fortunately, you appeared."
Jiang Yu bit her lip, feeling a little disobedient.
She said, "You're so mushy."
Feng Linbai chuckled. "Yu'er, I have even more mushy things to say to you. Yet you can't even stand this? What will you do in the future?"
Jiang Yu: "Don't say such things then."
Feng Linbai chuckled again.
He lowered his head.
"That won't do.
"In the future, I'll tell you everything.
"My little girlfriend."
A warmth crept up to the tips of her ears as Jiang Yu looked to the side.
She said in a rather unpleasant manner, "I've said it before. I'll only announce it when I'm an adult."
"All right," Feng Linbai replied smoothly. "It'll only be a few months. It'll be here soon."
Jiang Yu, on the other hand, was deep in thought.
When that time came…
How was she going to tell her four older brothers about him?
…
On the first day of the New Year.
When Jiang Yu got downstairs, her older brothers were already there.
It was as if they were fighting to speak to Jiang Yu first. One by one, they pushed each other away and stacked themselves in front of her.
"Little Sister! Good morning!"
"Little Sister is just as cute today!"
Jiang Yu: "..."
When the few of them sat at the dining table, Jiang Yu received a few new year calls.
Other than Chen Miaoyi and Qin Fangfei, everyone from the tech company and the martial arts school greeted her.
When Ding Jiaxu and the others called, Jiang Yu stood up and walked away.
After the call, she was about to head back when she received a call from Ji Churan.
After Ji Churan paid her New Year's greetings, she said hesitantly, "Little Yu'er, there's something I need to tell you."
Without thinking, Jiang Yu said, "Take good care of yourself."
Ji Churan was stunned. "You... You know?"
Jiang Yu: "Yes."
Ji Churan: "Did Fifth Young Master Feng tell you?"
After spending so much time with He Xiulan, she already knew that He Xiulan and Fifth Young Master Feng knew each other. She thought that Cixi Restaurant was Fifth Young Master Feng's property and did not know that it had already been transferred to Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu did not deny it. "Yes."
In reality, it was He Xiulan who took the initiative to tell her.
After all, he was making a plan for Ji Churan. Even as Ji Churan's current guardian, He Xiulan still sought Jiang Yu's opinion.
Perhaps, it was just a symbolic gesture.
Jiang Yu believed that He Xiulan had definitely thought about Ji Churan's future. For her future, sending her abroad now was a good choice.
Ji Churan was good at cooking, so there weren't any good schools or institutions in the country for her to study.
Her interests and future career were all related to cooking. Even if Ji Churan's grades were good and she could get into a good university in this country, Jiang Yu didn't think that university was the only path forward.
For example, Feng Tianrui, Jiang Zeyu, and Ji Churan.
They were shining stars in their own fields. It wasn't that they weren't studying. On the contrary, they were seizing every minute and every second to improve.
All roads lead to Rome. Talents were born from all walks of life.
Ji Churan said hesitantly, "To be honest, I was a little surprised at first too. I didn't expect him to have a plan for me. But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that what he said was right.
"I...really do like good food and cooking..."
"Then, go do it."
Jiang Yu said without hesitation, "Go do it. Do what you want to do. Don't doubt it."
"But, I'm a little afraid to challenge the unknown alone..."
Even though He Xiulan had already said that he would arrange for someone to take care of her.
He had to take care of his work in the country and could only visit her occasionally. But, what Ji Churan cared about more was that she was far away from the familiar environment in this country. She was a little afraid of the unknown.
Jiang Yu said, "You've already made a brave choice once. This time, I believe you can do it again."
Moreover, this time, it was four years earlier than the original plot.
In the original plot, Ji Churan had worked hard every day in order to be with Feng Junhao. She had barely managed to reach the scoreline of Bei U, but she was offered only a very ordinary major.
She was not interested in that major, but she still braced herself and went through it. Unfortunately, her results were mediocre.
Lu Yuan also entered Bei U.
After being entangled with Lu Yuan and Feng Junhao for four years, the year she graduated from university, Ji Churan finally decided to follow her heart. She resolutely went abroad to study cooking. Two years later, with her talent, she became a famous gourmet and culinary master.
It was the right thing to do, just that the timeline was pushed forward by four years.
Ji Churan let out a breath. "Little Yu'er, did I tell you how lucky I am to know you?"
Jiang Yu: "Yes, you've said it many times."
Ji Churan: "....Ah?"
