They went to the temple together and walked around twice, had their pictures taken, had their royal vermillion seal printed, and made a wish under a very old tree.
She didn't tell him that the wish she made that day was, "Let's not end it too soon."
What Shen Shiyan wanted to see was the aurora borealis.He dragged her on a ten-hour flight to Iceland for one uncertain night.
Jiang Dai had resisted, too busy with work, but he took it seriously and said, "You need to learn to waste a little time on the good."
They sat on the roof of the car wrapped in down jackets in a minus ten degree night.Her hands were red from the cold, and he tucked them into his shirt and pressed them against his heart.
"How much longer do you want to watch?"
"As long as you want."
When the aurora borealis finally appeared, the sky looked like someone had lifted green satin and rolled it layer by layer into the night.She didn't say anything, just looked at those lights, her eyes slowly flushed with moisture.
Shen Shiyan lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "Jiang Dai, thank you for watching the light with me."
She said, "You are the light."
During that time in Paris, Jiang Dai attended an economic forum.Shen Shiyan had nothing to do, and spent his days taking pictures of the streets with his camera.
On that day, when Jiang Dai had a fever, he pushed back all the invitations and waited for her downstairs in his apartment.He wore a dark gray sweater and stood in the shade like a painting.
As she approached, he whispered, "I've seen a lot of pretty sights today, but none made me want to stay more than you."
She frowned, "Did you film me again?"
"Filmed."
"Deleted."
"Not deleted."
She approached him, hooked a hand around his neck, and kissed him - only for ten seconds, lips against lips lightly, but with all her repressed emotions.
After the kiss she said, "Shen Shiyan, no regrets."
He touched the end of her hair, "You're the one thing I've done that I don't regret."
Sometimes like a couple, sometimes like teammates, sometimes like A and B working together.
Jiang Dai got used to someone handing her a cup of hot water in the morning, and Shen Shiyan got used to listening to her read emails every day before bed.
They learned to take care of each other, accommodate each other, tolerate and argue.
But they never crossed the line - no one opened their mouths first to say they loved each other, and no one asked first, "So what are we going to do when the contract expires?"
They both knew that the end would come.
But they also knew that they really loved before that end came.
At that moment in the beginning, no one was optimistic about their relationship. The headline on the news was [Jiang's Group heiress Jiang Dai threw away millions, suspected of adopting a young master of a listed company?
Jiang Dai?
"She's too tall, who dares to chase after her?"
"She's that Jiang Dai from the Jiang family, with sharp eyes."
"In the past, someone wanted to chase backward, but the result was a little slower to return the message was withdrawn and pulled black, clean."
Shen Shiyan?
"He is not short of people to like, that face, that kind of character ... but he really doesn't play around."
"He seriously talks about every relationship, not just play along.He'll remember a girl's preferences, holidays, habits - unfortunately, none of it lasts."
"You're not wrong when you say he's a 'harmless sea king'."
So when the two get together -
My friend was shocked, "These two can make it?"
And a little envious: "They actually look quite good together eh."
"They're not too mushy, instead they're like old friends who know each other very well."
"But also very sweet.Going to the bar Shen Shi Banquet took the reason that she doesn't drink to block the drinks, Jiang Dai would take him away when he said he was tired."
Someone even said, "When they are together, it's like two worlds briefly overlapping."
