The best promise a man could give to a woman was marriage. Similarly, the deepest trust a woman could give to a man was also marriage.
To anyone, marriage was probably the most precious thing in the world.
But she was willing to use marriage to tell him that she liked him.
Since she was willing to give her whole life to him, then he would go through fire and water for her once more.
At that thought, Lu Jinnian's eyes flashed with a hint of mocking sadness.
In the end, he still lost to her.
Time and time again, she pushed his bottom line, but time and time again, he gave up for her.
However, who could be blamed for that?
Who asked him to be unable to love anyone else but her in this lifetime?
The plane landed at Beijing International Airport at three in the afternoon.
The winter winds were strong in Beijing. Even though the sun was unusually bright, it was still cold enough to make people shiver.
Before Lu Jinnian left, he had taken a taxi to the airport, so there were no cars here. The two of them queued for a taxi.
Once they got in, the taxi driver asked, "Where are you two going?"
Without thinking, Lu Jinnian replied faintly, "Civil Affairs Bureau."
"Alright." The taxi driver was probably a native of Beijing, speaking with an old Beijing accent. After replying, he started the car.
After driving for a short distance, Qiao Anhao, who was sitting beside Lu Jinnian, said, "Taxi driver, to Jindian district."
"Huh? Isn't it the Civil Affairs Bureau? "the taxi driver asked in confusion.
Lu Jinnian's face instantly darkened.
Qiao Anhao hurriedly explained, "I don't have my household registration booklet with me."
Lu Jinnian's expression improved slightly. Ignoring Qiao Anhao, he turned to the taxi driver and said, "Listen to her."
It wasn't the fifteenth of the first month yet, so there weren't many people in the capital. There wasn't any traffic on the way, so in less than half an hour, they arrived at Jindian district.
Lu Jinnian paid the driver, and the two of them took the elevator to Qiao Anhao's small apartment.
Qiao Anhao opened the door, and without even changing her shoes, she ran straight into the bedroom.
Lu Jinnian casually tossed his luggage beside the shoe cabinet. He scanned her apartment, noticing the uncleaned takeout boxes on the dining table and the scattered magazines and underwear on the sofa. He couldn't help but furrow his brows. Instinctively, he walked over to help her tidy up. Then, he saw a cigarette box on the coffee table with a piece of paper underneath it.
Lu Jinnian froze. After a long while, he reached out to grab the box of cigarettes and the piece of paper.
He opened the piece of paper first, and the familiar handwriting and words jumped into his eyes just like that.
It turned out that the porcelain doll had already been smashed by her.
After a while, Lu Jinnian opened the pack of cigarettes and counted. There were eighteen of them. It was indeed the pack of cigarettes he had left at the set of "Heavenly Sword".
That was the only time in the four months that he had been away, apart from the Spring Festival, that he had returned to China.
At that time, he had returned because of the anniversary of his mother's death. Actually, he hadn't intended to visit her, but after he had offered his mother incense, he had booked a plane ticket to Jiangxi.
That night, he had stayed for a while before leaving. Then, he had heard cries for help coming from her room.
Suddenly, he heard footsteps. Lu Jinnian hurriedly placed the paper and cigarette box back in their original places. Turning around, he saw Qiao Anhao running out of the bedroom with her household registration booklet.
