Chapter 40
The two were walking on the street when suddenly a Mercedes-Benz stopped by the side of the road ahead.
Jiang Keyi recognized whose car it was. When she walked over, the window of the car slid down slowly. When she saw this person, Xue Jing felt that the sky had just cleared and it was raining again, and her good mood was overwhelmed. broken.
"Where are you going? Let me give you a ride."
"Go to eat, why don't we go together."
Zhao Ningxue extended her gaze to Jiang Keyi's back, and glanced at Xue Jing who was standing by the roadside like a light pole. She always felt that this person was not compatible with her magnetic field, especially the way the other party looked at her, as if she was lying. A third party who took her father's money and hurt her mother is very unfriendly.
"Xue Jing, get in the car."
After Jiang Keyi finished speaking, he went around to the other side of the car and got into the car without hesitation.
Even if there is a hundred unwillingness in Xue Jing's heart, if she chooses to be angry at this time, the points deducted from her will be added to that woman. She is not good at math but still knows addition and subtraction, so she has no choice but to be obedient. boarding.
"what to eat?"
"I can do it, Xue Jing, is there anything you don't want to eat?"
Jiang Keyi turned to the back seat and asked, this action brought the damaged self-esteem in Xue Jing's heart back to the balance point, indicating that at least she was still in her goddess' heart.
"No, I am the same, everything is fine."
Considering that it was getting late, Zhao Ningxue went to the nearby western restaurant she frequented, and arrived at her destination within a short distance.
Xue Jing stared at the menu, with a pot of boiling water in her heart, muttering to herself for a long time, regretting not decisively pushing them away to eat her favorite hot pot.
There were either things on the menu that she couldn't understand, or things that she didn't like to eat. Almost none of the dishes were to her liking.
Zhao Ningxue ordered medium-rare truffle steak and a glass of Pinot Gris, while Jiang Keyi only ordered pan-fried cod and lemonade.
Another person looked at the menu as if he was reading a magazine, and he still couldn't make up his mind after reading it for a long time.
"Vegetable salad without tomato, cucumber, and sauce, Margherita pizza without cheese, and two glasses of draft beer first."
The two women on the opposite side exchanged a look, as if they were confirming whether they had heard the same thing, and when they saw the same expressions on each other, they understood each other for a while.
Jiang Keyi was wearing a short-sleeved chiffon shirt today, and the air conditioner in the room was very cold. Zhao Ningxue thoughtfully took off her coat and put it on the other party's body.
The steak was served first. Zhao Ningxue knew that Jiang Keyi was hungry, so she cut a small piece of steak and delivered it to her mouth. The intimate interaction between the two fell into Xue Jing's eyes, and she felt very upset. The wine glass gurgled and drank wildly, and finished a glass in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Ningxue's body exudes the aura of a strong woman, but without losing that unique and elegant charm.
The two different natures seem to be natural in her body. Seeing her every move, frown and smile, and even the attention to ingredients, all of them show her superior status.
In fact, steak and white wine do not have a particularly noble meaning, what to eat is a personal preference, but Xue Jing feels inferior. Looking at the things in front of her and Zhao Ningxue, she feels that her taste and image are inferior to hers.
When she cast another sneaky look to the opposite side, Zhao Ningxue happened to look over and meet this look, seeing that her eyes and brows seemed to be smiling, as if she was laughing at her own feelings.
I thought this woman must look down on me too!
Xue Jing almost wanted to hide herself throughout the night, and did not communicate with anyone at all. There were three people at a table, as if they were divided into two factions. One side talked and laughed lightly, while the other side was serious and heavy. The atmosphere of the two sides did not match at all. .
Xue Jing always felt that the yellow light in the restaurant was too bright, and the scene in front of her eyes was too dazzling, and she couldn't get out of her breath. If she accidentally knocked over the wine glass and spilled it on the floor, it was like a big commotion. Other customers looked over, and she sat down The longer it takes, the more uncomfortable it becomes.
Chinese people should eat Chinese food. The food of these foreigners is almost the same as that of animals. It is either raw or half-cooked. The soup is also filled with milk, which is sticky and sticky. The more you eat, the more disgusting you become.
Thinking of the hot and refreshing soup in the hot pot, her saliva almost drools, so she picked up her backpack, interrupted the conversation of the two women in front and said:
"I have something to do, I'm going first."
Jiang Keyi glanced at the things on the opposite table, saw that the wine was finished and the food was barely eaten, thinking that this person must be reincarnated from a wine bottle, so all he could hold was wine.
"Then be careful on the way home."
This is obviously a sentence of concern, but Xue Jing looked very unhappy when she heard it, she got up abruptly, and walked away resentfully.
Zhao Ningxue raised her eyebrows unconsciously, looked at Jiang Keyi with a smile on her face, her mouth curved into a beautiful arc with a meaningful smile, and then said this sentence again.
"Director Jiang is indeed unstoppable."
Jiang Keyi saw through the ironic thoughts in her heart at a glance, and glared at her, thinking that this woman is always gloating.
After returning home, Jiang Keyi realized that the phone was out of battery. She quickly connected the charging cable, and then turned on the phone again. After a while, a bunch of new messages rushed in, and the series of notification sounds sounded so loud. Underneath it feels a bit like a whining meal.
"My mother is fine, just a stomach attack. She got better after the IV drip. The doctor suggested a gastroscopy, and she will be hospitalized temporarily. It seems that I need to extend my vacation. "
"Where are you?Why can't I make a call? "
"Why don't you answer me?Where did you go? "
"Haven't you come home yet?" "
"If I don't pay attention, I will definitely be abducted by that Zhao again..."
"Jiang Keyi, you are so weak-hearted! ! "
After reading these messages, Jiang Keyi could fully feel You Xiaofan's ups and downs, as if this person was right in front of him at this moment, and he could feel the feeling of the other person as soon as he stretched out his hand.
Thinking of the way the other party jumped angrily, she panicked and didn't dare to neglect, but when her finger was about to press the dial, she suddenly hesitated.
She thought that the love this time would be different, but history repeated itself. Even if they could cross this time, there were still many hurdles behind her.
When she thought that there was a strong general like Zhuang Xu in these checkpoints, and the empress dowager backed him, her confidence suddenly flinched, and at this moment, she actually had the idea of giving up the battle.
Suddenly the phone rang, and the name on the screen came into her eyes, arousing the thoughts she had just suppressed, and gradually her heart was softened, and she pressed the answer button.
"Jiang Keyi, where are you? Nothing happened, right?"
Judging from You Xiaofan's anxious tone, one can feel how restless she has been these few hours.
The feeling of being cared by someone was like being surrounded by warmth. Jiang Keyi raised the corners of her mouth unconsciously, but when she thought of those obstacles, she felt sad for a while. The constant intertwining of sorrow and joy made her feel a little confused.
"I'm fine, I just got home and my phone died, I just saw the message now."
"Where have you been? Will you be so busy that you can't even look at your phone all night? Don't even know that your phone is dead?"
When the feeling of anxiety ebbs like a sea wave, traces of doubts are left on the beach. For Jiang Keyi's hot and cold attitude, You Xiaofan's mood expands and contracts, almost pushing her to the brink of collapse up.
"After dealing with some troublesome matters, we met Mr. Zhao and had dinner together, and talked about some business matters by the way."
You Xiaofan was anxious and angry all night, and Jiang Keyi took it lightly like this.
This calm woman always makes everyone who gets angry with her scream and jump like a stupid monkey. You Xiaofan took a deep breath and tried to stay calm. This time, she will never let the monkey get a chance.
"I'll be with my mom tonight, I need to take a few more days off."
"I see, why don't I visit my aunt after get off work tomorrow."
"No need, this is an old problem of my mother. I will have a gastroscopy tomorrow. If there is nothing wrong, I can leave the hospital immediately."
"Then...do you really need my help? Who will pick you up after you leave the hospital?"
"The arrangements for Zhuang Xu have been made."
One sentence made Jiang Keyi seem to see the happy picture of those three people again.
The mood was like falling into the sea and drifting, suddenly a huge wave like a tall building rolled up, and then rushed her to a desperate uninhabited island.
Those destructive memories of the past made Jiang Keyi unable to help but began to doubt her choice this time, as if she struggled hard, it was just a useless resistance to fate.
"I see, then you can greet Auntie for me."
"Don't get me wrong, it's not that I want Zhuang Xu to arrange it. He is so enthusiastic, and my mother likes him very much. My mother is sick now, so I will obey her for the time being. I hope you can understand my position."
"I can understand. Frankly speaking, Zhuang Xu is quite thoughtful. A man with such good conditions, if I were your mother, I would also hope that my daughter could marry such a man."
He spoke so euphemistically and movingly, but he couldn't hide his sour tone. Under Jiang Keyi's always calm face, he actually had a side of being angry.
You Xiaofan was so sweet in his heart that he insisted on exposing her and said:
"Are you jealous?"
"Genders are different, why are you jealous?"
She didn't know that the more serious she was at this time, the cuter she looked.
You Xiaofan covered his face and held back his laughter, this woman is so cute, she simply doesn't want to let people live!
"Then do you miss me?"
"Hmm... think."
"I haven't seen you for so many days, can't you say a few more words I want to hear?"
"I won't say it. You know I'm not interesting, I don't understand style, I'm indifferent and can't speak. I'm not as considerate as others, and I'm on call 24/7."
An inexplicable sense of excitement struck, the concentration of dopamine in the body suddenly soared, and the rapid heartbeat was a smooth rhythm. You Xiaofan felt that he could not hold on any longer.
I like someone so much that I can't add it, which is probably the case now. When she loses her temper, she will think she is cute.
"Jiang Keyi, do you know that you are so cute?"
"..."
Jiang Keyi didn't notice it, even though she had heard Zhang Mengxi and Zhao Ningxue say that about her.
Never thought that women are such cute and interesting creatures, You Xiaofan even felt that it was too late to be turned away at this age.
"My mom hasn't slept yet, so I can't talk to you for too long. You... must pay attention to your girlfriend all the time. I want you to reply to my messages in seconds. What I want is not my mom's instant message." That, the person I need is you."
Jiang Keyi suddenly felt his nose sore, and his mood was like bitter gourd mixed with sugar, sweet and bitter.
"Well, I see."
"and then?"
The other end of the phone suddenly fell silent. After waiting for a while, You Xiaofan began to feel anxious. A little jealousy would make her feel happy. Too much jealousy would hurt her feelings. Although she had already explained it, she was still afraid that Jiang Keyi would get angry and ignore it. she.
"Good night, baby."
It seems that after waiting for a century, she finally got what she wanted to hear, but she always felt that the sweetness was not enough to reach her throat. She was seriously short of sugar recently, and needed more sweetness.
"Is there anything else that seems to be missing?"
Jiang Keyi hesitated for a moment, then said shyly:
"I love you, good night."
Only then did You Xiaofan end the conversation in satisfaction.
After Jiang Keyi lay down, she felt that her mood seemed to be much better. She slept very well that night and had no dreams.
The author has something to say:
The plot preview of the next chapter:
"I want to chase you."
Jiang Keyi was so frightened that her blood was about to freeze, and she couldn't help but feel a chill down her back, and her hairs stood on end. This was the scariest thing she'd heard this year.
Jiang Keyi recognized whose car it was. When she walked over, the window of the car slid down slowly. When she saw this person, Xue Jing felt that the sky had just cleared and it was raining again, and her good mood was overwhelmed. broken.

After Jiang Keyi finished speaking, he went around to the other side of the car and got into the car without hesitation.
