Chapter 763 – Romance in the Snow
In the hall, when Zhan Xiyang sat down, he indeed received a hint from Xi FengHan that he would work harder tonight and see if he could get a good impression from Chu Yan.
Therefore, he chose to let nature take its course and would not force it.
It was still half an hour before dinner, at this time, three women walked over from the side hall. Chu Yan said to Mrs. Xi, "Aunt, I heard from Hai Yue just now that the banyan tree in your courtyard is already over a hundred years old. I want to go out and take a look."
"That's right!" It's been a hundred years. It's the oldest tree in the city. It's just a little cold outside. "
Just then, Zhan Xiyang stood up and said to Chu Yan, "I'll go with you."
Chu Yan was startled, but at the same time, she happily agreed, "Alright!"
With that, Chu Yan directly walked to the door, she frowned her brows and said to her: "Don't you dare put on the overcoat?"
When Chu Yan came over, she was wearing an overcoat and was given to a servant to hang on a hanger. She quickly regained her senses and laughed, "Oh! "That's right!"
Chu Yan hadn't even brought it over when Zhan Xiyang had already taken the initiative to help her take her coat and personally put it on, causing his to feel a little embarrassed in front of all these people. She still hadn't recovered from his shock when Zhan Xiyang took one of his scarves and wrapped it around her neck.
Chu Yan's body stiffened as she lowered her head to look at the scarf. Luckily, her girlfriend didn't give her that scarf, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to wear that scarf of his.
She pushed the door open and came out. Zhan Xiyang also put on his coat and the two of them walked in the evening at Xi Family's Mansion and saw that the surroundings were already lit up with red lights. Under the night sky, the hundred-year old banyan tree was like a huge umbrella that protected the entire courtyard.
Chu Yan wowed, and raised her head. In order to clearly see the appearance of the great banyan tree, she couldn't help but spin around the tree like a child.
"Your feet aren't ready yet, so why are you still spinning around?" Zhan Xiyang immediately complained.
Chu Yan walked under the banyan tree. She reached out and gently stroked the huge branches of the banyan tree, and even feebly reached out her hand to measure her height. At this moment, the suffocating temperature of the banyan tree was just a few degrees below zero.
Chu Yan's breathing hastened, her hands were cold like ice pops. Zhan Xiyang said to her, "Put your hands in your pockets, you will get frostbite if you do that."
With that, he held her hand and put it into his pocket. The warm feeling enveloped Chu Yan's palm and her heart started to race. What was this man doing?
However, she actually didn't want to leave.
Both of them were standing together, when suddenly snow began to fall from the sky, Chu Yan immediately looked up and blinked her eyes. Although it was extremely cold, she had forgotten about it, the atmosphere at that moment was extremely romantic.
Zhan Xiyang's gaze landed on a few snowflakes that floated in the center of her hair. They stayed for a few seconds, then disappeared.
Zhan Xiyang heard his heartbeat race, a fallen leaf suddenly floated over and landed on her wavy hair. Zhan Xiyang was immediately startled, he extended his hand and picked it up for her.
Zhan Xiyang felt the cold sensation of the temperature, and immediately pulled her up, "Let's go back, if we continue like this, you will get cold."
Chu Yan was like a child as she was pulled towards the direction of the hall. When she was about to reach the door, her hands struggled for a moment, and Zhan Xiyang very cooperatively let go of her hands. The two of them entered the hall together.
The warmth in the hall caused the two of them to take off their coats. On the sofa, Gong Yuning's young and tender voice made the entire hall burst into cheers. Everyone's eyes were focused on this little guy.
"Yuning, what kind of person do you want to be when you grow up?" Mrs. Xi asked as she pulled her granddaughter into her arms with a smile.
Gong Yuning blinked her big eyes and thought about it seriously, then she smiled and said, "I want to be a big celebrity."
Chu Yan sat at the side and handed the warm baby over to her. Chu Yan really needed it, because her hands were so cold that she couldn't take it anymore. She hugged the warm baby and looked at the cute little girl with her.
Gong Yuze was reading novels by the side. He wasn't reading normal novels, he was reading English versions of Western novels instead. Usually, his hobby would be reading books.
