There is light in the deep sea
Chapter 11
When they came, they took the car of the program group, and the driver was Du Xinlai's special driver.At the moment, everyone is eating hot pot and drinking, but he abides by his duties and comes out when he is full.Seeing Xie Wu and Jiang Xichen approaching from a distance, he hurriedly got out of the car and went to meet them.
Xie Wu let go of Jiang Xichen's hand, but before he pulled it away, Jiang Xichen grabbed it back, holding all four fingers side by side tightly in his palm.Looking back, I saw that the child's slightly flushed drunk eyes were full of grievances.
Xie Wu: "..."
The driver followed Du Xin, obviously he had seen the big world, seeing these two big men holding hands, he was not surprised at all, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xie, Mr. Jiang, are you retreating?" ? Do you want me..." As he spoke, his eyes turned to the car behind, "Give me a free?"
Xie Wu patiently opened Jiang Xichen's hand, and replied: "No need, this is not a few steps away from the theater. Your colleagues are all very high, so you should pay attention to it. In addition..." Finally opened the hand Holding his hand tightly, he raised his hand and knocked a chestnut on Jiang Xichen's forehead, and said, "Stand at attention!"
Jiang Xichen was taken aback for a moment, and after a while, he really stopped and stood up obediently, staring at him seriously.
"Pfft—" The driver next to him laughed, looked at Jiang Xichen, then at Xie Wu, "Little Mr. Jiang really looks like a middle school student, he is still obedient."
Xie Wu didn't expect this kid to be so obedient when he was drunk, which was completely different from the time he remembered a few years ago.Looking at such a docile Jiang Xichen, he suddenly felt a little bit of conscience, felt that he was going too far, and couldn't help thinking about going too far.
He coughed lightly, facing Jiang Xichen and said solemnly: "Turn right—go forward!"
Jiang Xichen frowned, seemed a little puzzled, but still did as he did.
"..." Xie Wu let out a breath in disbelief, and the driver had already bent over laughing.Staring at Jiang Xichen as he stepped forward, Xie Wu told the driver, "The two of us have seen this, so don't talk nonsense when you turn around, he is an idol, he wants image."
The driver laughed so hard that he couldn't speak, and nodded repeatedly.
Xie Wu said again: "By the way, this kid suddenly forgot what I was going to say just now, please turn around and tell Du Xin for me, next time I will invite him to dinner to make amends."
"Okay!" The driver didn't ask for any compensation, and took the task. Seeing Jiang Xichen walking away in a fool, he stopped laughing and said kindly, "It's big news for a person like Mr. Jiang to walk outside on the main road. In the middle of the night..."
Xie Wu couldn't laugh or cry: "Oh, really! Let's go—" waved to the driver, and ran up to chase Jiang Xichen, barely stopping him in front of the gate of the hot pot restaurant, and then took out a mask from his coat pocket, Can't help but put it on for him.
Jiang Xichen has been quiet and docile all the time, after Xie Wu helped him to get all the corners and corners tamed, he suddenly said in a muffled voice, "I'm not, I just said it to outsiders..."
"What?" Xie Wu couldn't understand the words without beginning or end.
But Jiang Xichen let out a "hum", and his eyes also hummed in response to the sound, and he didn't intend to speak anymore.Then he belched loudly inside the mask.After the hiccup, his face exposed outside the mask changed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Xie Wu didn't have time to take off the mask for him, so he pulled it away by himself, leaning against the wall and throwing up.
...It's the same as it was three years ago.
Xie Wu watched him finish vomiting, stroked his back again, and then asked: "Go home?"
He nodded, "Yeah."
Xie Wu put the mask on for him again, this time he didn't have the patience to help him tidy up, and ran to the side of the road to stop the car after saying "Taxi".Jiang Xichen put on the mask in disgust and followed silently.
Fortunately, after waiting for a while, they waited for a taxi that was willing to take passengers, and both of them got into the back seat.
Xie Wu asked him: "Where is your home address?"
"Ronghua...Starlight Garden." Jiang Xichen deliberately moved over to the driver in front, and added, "That's right, the one in Lanhuaxili, do you know the place?"
As soon as the driver heard the stumbling words, he knew that he had drunk too much, and without turning his head, he glanced at the rearview mirror, reached out and pressed the "empty car" sign, and replied: "Yes, you, hurry up and sit still! "
Jiang Xichen leaned back on the back of the seat, sat firmly, with his face facing out the window.
Xie Wu pursed his lips and stared at him for a while, but in the end he couldn't hold back, raised his hand to break his face, stared at those eyes that were already awake, and asked, "When did you live in Xingguang Jiayuan?"
Jiang Xichen: "Today."
Xie Wu: "On purpose?"
Jiang Xichen: "Well, this neighborhood is close to the theater."
nonsense.Xie Wu felt a headache again, just like he had agreed to this guy's recommendation request to enter the theater.But because there was a stranger in front of him, he didn't ask any more questions, let go of Jiang Xichen's face silently, and leaned on the back of the chair, rubbing his temples while persuading himself not to care about children.
The two were speechless for a while.The distance is short, the car passes through two intersections on the road late at night, turns two more corners, and arrives.Xie Wu paid the money, and after getting out of the car, he bent over and looked inside the car, seeing that Jiang Xichen was much more agile than before, so he didn't bother.
"Which building is which house?" The two stood at the gate of the community, Xie Wu still had luck in his heart, and asked.
However, Jiang Xichen broke the luck as soon as he opened his mouth: "Building 8, 3rd floor, 302."
After hearing this, Xie Wu had nothing to say.Turning their heads, the two stared at each other.
Jiang Xichen seems to be basically sober, and the obedient obedience when he was drunk has been uninstalled with one click. At this moment, he clearly told Xie Wu eight words in his eyes: a done deal, a foregone conclusion.
After living for 35 years, for the first time, Xie Wu deeply questioned his own judgment and choice: Back then, he clearly knew that this kid had the face of a milk dog, so why did he soften his heart and agree to him?But now that the big pit has been dug deep, what else can he do, he can't stop this kid from living opposite him!
"Okay, let's go." He stretched out his hand forward and made a "please" gesture.
Jiang Xichen saw that he didn't mean to question the teacher, but rather shy and bored, he walked into the community without saying a word.The two were always separated by a distance of half a meter.Go back to the 8rd floor of Building 3, one door per person.
Xie Wu opened his own door, turned around and said very politely: "Take a shower and go to bed early, don't be late for rehearsal tomorrow."
Jiang Xichen nodded slightly, leaned against the door on his side, and looked at him quietly.
The lights on this floor should have been broken, but their footsteps did not wake it up. Now there are only lights upstairs and downstairs, which is really not bright enough.Xie Wu and him looked at each other for two seconds, then withdrew their eyes, stepped into the room, and closed the door.The gaze that was chasing him deeply, finally couldn't feel it anymore.
But he didn't feel relaxed at all, instead he was haunted by an indescribable uneasiness.Holding the doorknob, he stood motionless behind the door for a while, until he heard the door opened and closed on the other side, and then he unscrewed the latch.
After drinking a little wine, in the middle of the night, he recalled that he had watched Jiang Xichen be tricked by Du Xinlai at the beginning of the night, and then he couldn't help but offend Du Xinlai to take him away, and even found that this kid had quietly moved to the opposite side of him. During the whole process of coming, I always feel that there is an invisible thread between these seemingly independent pictures and things.
What was the clue? He still had no idea, but he suddenly understood what Jiang Xichen said earlier, "I didn't tell an outsider." Once, I told an outsider about my childhood family affairs."
Since "it was not spoken to outsiders", it means that it was said to one's own people.Among the people present at that time, Du Xinlai was definitely not one of his own people. Chu Wenjin seemed to have known what he said, so things were very clear: Jiang Xichen's childhood and those family affairs were all related to him. Tell him to Xie Wu.
For no reason, why should I tell him?
It can't be that the feelings for him are so deep that you can't wait to take out your bottom, right?
This is of course impossible.Xie Wu could clearly see how satisfied an admirer was with his feelings.This Jiang Xichen is at most between "interested" and "wanted" for him. If the two of them open up the ambiguity, the possibility of directly meeting the actual needs is far higher than talking about feelings.
Since he doesn't have such deep feelings, what is the purpose of his approaching so deliberately?
He pondered over this "why" repeatedly, and searched himself from the inside to the outside from the beginning to the end, but he couldn't find anything that could make Jiang Xichen think.
——Although both of them are performing arts for a living, their ways are very different. Now that they come to act in dramas, it is at the expense of their own interests. It can be seen that they don't want to seek any benefits from him.
So, is the picture person?It seemed possible, but it was a long way off.It hasn't been long, except for the sneaky kiss last time, and the last time he refused to let go, he has let go of all the other opportunities to take advantage.It's not like he's a young man, and he's just trying to figure out people, so it's impossible for him to figure it out so slowly.
Thinking of this, I really walked into a dead end of "I can't understand it".Xie Wu fell into the sofa, grabbed the phone and opened the address book, his fingers rested on Duan Rong's name again and again, and finally pressed the dial button.
The other side was connected, and before the greetings were opened, he dropped a sentence of "speaking of business", Duan Rong listened, and turned his usual greetings into a serious mode of "oh, what's the matter", and then heard Xie Wu's unusual Serious voice: "Do you know someone who can check people?"
Duan Rong: "Which aspect are you referring to? Gossip or privacy?"
Xie Wu asked: "What's the difference?"
"Of course there is." Duan Rong listened and got up formally, as if he had turned on the computer, and there was the sound of typing from the mobile phone, "Gossip is just irrelevant fun, and privacy is more profound, usually people I don’t want to say it, and I never revealed it. Brother, what you want to check is privacy, right? Who? Just say it, and I’ll help you get in touch!”
Bah, old thief, I don't want to know.
But in secret, it's back to the complaints, Duan Rong is a reliable person, this point, Xie Wu believes that he and him have been friends for more than ten years, otherwise he would not make this call.So, he recounted to Duan Rong what Jiang Xichen said in the gazebo that day.
"His father is Jiang Qinmao, and his elder brother is naturally Jiang Dongwei. In the past, outsiders knew that he called Jiang Dongwei brother, and thought he recognized him because he happened to have the same surname. Now it seems that he is a real brother. You don't have to Check it out, what I want to know most is..."
Speaking of this, Xie Wu paused for a moment, wondering if it was because of the alcohol in the dinner, he felt the blood in his body was a little hot, and he even felt dizzy straight to his forehead.
Duan Rong heard that he was silent, and asked: "What do you want to know?"
Xie Wu held onto that guess that he thought was a fantasy even after thinking about it, and felt that his heart was constricting uncontrollably, and he was struggling to speak: "I, I want to know, who is his stepmother."
Xie Wu let go of Jiang Xichen's hand, but before he pulled it away, Jiang Xichen grabbed it back, holding all four fingers side by side tightly in his palm.Looking back, I saw that the child's slightly flushed drunk eyes were full of grievances.
Xie Wu: "..."
