"Like it?"

Seeing her unconsciously rubbing the ring at her fingertip, Rowan asked.

"Yes, I do."

"Just like it." Holding her hand, he pulled her into his arms and smelled the smell of her hair.

Claudia turned his head slightly and pressed his face to him. "Did you think I wouldn‘t come just now?"

"..."

"Say, do you think so, huh?"

"No."

"Really?"

"False."

"I ask you." Looking into his eyes carefully, she asked, "If I really ran away and didn‘t come just now, would you do the things you threatened me? Hurt my family and friends and so on."

Rowan hooked her lips and pinched her fingertips. "Didn‘t you come at last and ask what you were doing?"

"I want to know. Will it?"

"Yes."

Breathing stagnated, Claudia did not know what to say at the moment.

Half a ring, she licked her lip. "Well, are you kidding me?"

"No."

"Rowan, you are serious!"

"So, pupil, don‘t ignore my warning before doing anything in the future."

At the beginning of the night, it was like a dream. In the middle, it returned to reality for a while, but it was still a dream. But in the end, Rowan personally told Claudia what was true.

"I‘m tired." This time, it is true.

"Well, let‘s go back." Rowan said, taking her to the door.

"The banquet is not over yet."

"Give it to Wu Ruo."

The next day, Claudia was woken up by a noise.

Sitting up with the quilt in her arms, she rubbed her eyes and cried in confusion, "Rowan?"

Rowan came up and whispered, "I woke you up."

"No, what are you doing?"

"Pack up."

"What?" Sleepiness receded and Claudia woke up instantly. "What luggage?"

"At noon, I‘m going abroad for a few days to talk about cooperation."

Suddenly on a business trip?

I didn‘t even tell her before.

Claudia could not say whether he should be angry or anything else.

Seeing that she did not speak, Rowan sat down and took her hand. "What‘s the matter?"

She looked at him and finally said, "You didn‘t say that."

"Oh."

"Oh? A word oh is over?"

"Mrs. Wen is trying to control my schedule?"

"It‘s useless to say less." Breaking free of his hand, Claudia uncovered the quilt and went into the bathroom to wash.

Rowan didn‘t follow up. She brushed her teeth and washed her face angrily. When she came out of the bathroom, he had packed his suitcase.

Enduring not asking how long he would go, she ignored him and went to open the wardrobe to change clothes.

In Rowan‘s view, this awkward act is a treasure that has not been seen for a long time.

"Knock, knock."

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Wen Wangshu just said "come in" and Wen Jiazhi pushed the door and entered, holding the freshly baked newspaper this morning.

"Eldest brother, the newspaper!"

The teenager rushed to the two men and unfolded, "eldest brother, what‘s the situation? You, you yesterday?"

A faint glance at the newspaper showed him giving her a ring on the front page.

Looking at it again at this moment, I have a special feeling.

"Did you get on so soon?" Claudia took Wen Jiazhi‘s newspaper and frowned.

Wen Jiazhi noticed the ring on her hand and said in surprise, "Is that it? In the photo, the ring my eldest brother gave you?"

With a little shyness, Claudia gave a "well" and went to see Rowan, which happened to bump into his spoiled sight.

On the dining table, there was a more silent atmosphere than usual.

When the meat dumplings were full, Wen Chenglin asked Wen Jiazhi to take him to the living room first. Only then did he open his mouth, "For such a big thing, at least I should tell my family."

As he spoke, his hand lit the newspaper on the table. "We didn‘t know until the newspaper was published."

"Chenglin, don‘t worry." Feng Nuanxin glanced at Rowan and Claudia and whispered, "Listen to Rowan‘s explanation."

"There is nothing to explain." Rowan whispered.

Feng warm heart face a stiff, wry smile hanging down eyes.
