Withered Broken Ice Blue

Early in the morning, the sun shines through the window into a corner of the room, awakening the sleeping world. The air is filled with a fresh scent, as if last night's dream still lingers in the air.

Outside the window, the green leaves swayed gently in the breeze, making a slight rustling sound.

Chi Fei slept very well last night. Because of the appointment yesterday, she got up early in the morning and dressed herself.

There aren't many cosmetics on Chi Feiwan's dressing table, and she herself doesn't like to wear makeup. She simply braids her hair into a pigtail on one side, which is casual yet playful.

【I'll wait for you in the garage. 】

Chi Feiwan looked at the message sent by Jiang Huaixu on his phone and replied briefly: [OK.]

*

The parking lot is lined up neatly, like soldiers waiting for inspection. The ground is paved with smooth cement, with clear parking spaces marked out, and the vehicles are parked in an orderly manner. The air in the parking lot is filled with the smell of car exhaust.

It is not difficult to find JAC's car among a crowd of vehicles.

The unique license plate number starting with Beijing A and the flashing headlights are particularly eye-catching in the quiet garage.

The car door was opened. Jiang Huaixu looked at the time on his watch and smiled, "Quite punctual."

"Who dares to stand up Young Master Jiang?" She deliberately kept a certain distance from Jiang Huaixu so that there was even room for two more people between them.

In the end, Chi Feiwan chose to sit near the car window, and Jiang Huaixu stared at the obvious gap between the two of them.

At this moment, the originally bright smile on Jiang Huaixu's face suddenly became stiff, as if frozen by an invisible force. He obviously did not expect Chi Feiwan to show such obvious alienation from him.

"Am I a plague?" Jiang Huaixu clenched his teeth tightly, and the sound squeezed out from between his teeth.

"If you insist on thinking so..." Chi Feiwan turned his head and looked out the window, "Then I can't do anything about it."

Jiang Huaixu frowned slightly. He didn't understand why Chi Feiwan suddenly became so cold to him.

The atmosphere in the car suddenly became a little subtle, as if covered by an invisible veil.

Jiang Huaixu frowned slightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, but he still spoke first: "Did you go to dinner with that girl yesterday?"

When Chi Feiwan heard this, she couldn't help but feel doubtful. She turned her head and looked at Jiang Huaixu suspiciously, frowning slightly, and asked, "What girl?" At the same time, Liang Jinyan's figure involuntarily emerged in her mind, and that beautiful and familiar face was clearly visible. A complex look flashed in her blue eyes, with both surprise and confusion.

Then, as if she suddenly understood something, she asked with a hint of questioning in her tone: "How did you know?"

"Li Qiong said so."

Chi Feiwan found it funny, "How did Li Qiong know?"

Then, something else occurred to him, "She sent someone to follow me?"

Jiang Huaixu leaned slightly to the side and put his elbow on the edge of the car window. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, outlining a faint smile: "Chi Feiwan, she doesn't have the courage to send someone to follow you, but to follow that girl. You are just an unexpected gain."

Li Qiong's purpose of following Liang Jinyan was very simple, it was just out of curiosity and to see a joke.

"Not only do I know, everyone who was in the room yesterday knows."

In fact, what Li Qiong did was not right, but no one stood up to stop her, and no one told her that this behavior was wrong. What's worse is that many people don't have such awareness.

For example, if a girl falls in love with a boy from another class, the girls in the boy's class will whisper about the girl behind her back, or even pay special attention to her. Even if the girl simply likes the boy and does not do anything substantial, the girls in the same class will still tell the rest of the class what she did for the boy as a joke.

These girls were just like Li Qiong, all of them just wanted to watch the fun and not mind making trouble, and they had no idea how much serious harm would be caused by treating others in this way.

Chi Feiwan caught the other key points in the conversation, "Was Third Brother with you yesterday?"

"Yes."

"Then how did my third brother get injured?"

Jiang Huaixu stared at her quietly, with a barely perceptible emotion flashing in his eyes, and then he slowly said, "He deliberately broke the goblet in his hand because the private room was too noisy. Brother Yizhi intended to use the loud noise to stop the noisy chatter in the room."

With Chi Yizi's position, it would be easy for him to stop the noise in the private room, so why would he take such an extreme measure?

Not only Chi Feiwan couldn't figure it out, Jiang Huaixu also didn't understand it.

There was no follow-up to this topic. Jiang Huaixu lowered his eyes and his gaze fell on the exquisite tickets placed on his legs.

My thoughts go back to the day before yesterday.

In the early morning, the sun shines through the window into the room, illuminating Jiang Nanmo's delicate face. She sits quietly in front of the dressing table.

First, Jiang Nanmo gently removed the clips from her hair, letting her soft hair fall down on her shoulders like a waterfall. Then, she picked up the fluffy comb on the table and carefully combed each strand of hair, feeling the slight friction between the comb and her scalp, as if time had stopped at this moment.

When she finished styling her hair, her eyes inadvertently fell on the lipstick cabinet next to her. She opened the cabinet door and found that it was filled with various big-name lipsticks. They were like precious works of art, exuding charming charm. Jiangnan Mo picked out a few of her favorite colors and tried them on her hands one by one. Looking at the effects of different colors on her skin, she secretly compared them in her heart, trying to find the one that best suited her mood and outfit today.

After careful selection, she finally found a lipstick that satisfied her. She carefully applied it on her lips, and instantly her pale lips became bright and attractive, exuding a unique temperament.

Jiang Huaixu knocked on the door gently, then asked softly: "Sister, are you looking for me?"

Jiang Nanmo in the room did not respond to her brother's question. She was standing in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror carefully, and seemed quite satisfied with her makeup.

Seeing this, Jiang Huaixu didn't ask any more questions. He just glanced at his sister in the mirror and casually found a chair to sit down.

After a moment's silence, Jiang Nanmo finally spoke: "I have two tickets for the musical here, I'll give them to you." As she spoke, she handed the two tickets in her hand to Jiang Huaixu.

However, Jiang Huaixu did not reach out to take it immediately. Instead, he asked in confusion: "Aren't you going on a date with your boyfriend? Why did you suddenly change your plans?"

"Yes, I originally planned to go watch it with him the day after tomorrow, but I was notified at the last minute that there was an important club activity at school the day after tomorrow, so I really can't leave. I spent a lot of effort and used many connections to get the tickets for this musical, and it would be a shame not to go and see it, so I'll give it to you for free!" Jiang Nanmo's tone was filled with a hint of regret.

Then, she added: "But don't let me down, you must enjoy this wonderful performance. I heard that the cast of this musical is very strong and the plot is very touching. It is definitely worth watching!"

"But I'm not interested in musicals."

Jiang Nanmo tried his best to persuade him, "Wouldn't it be interesting if you went to see it?"

Jiang Huaixu smiled helplessly, "I'm alone?"

Jiang Nanmo looked at him and said with a smile: "Musicals are naturally more interesting when watched by two people. Don't you want to have a closer relationship with Wanwan?"

Jiang Huaixu said nothing, took the ticket and put it in his pocket.

"Sure enough, you only get interested when Wanwan is mentioned." Jiang Nanmo looked at Jiang Huaixu with a sly smile.
