you
At the beginning of Chapter 1, Van stands behind him, holding a bottle of peanut butter in his hand.
Facts have proved that taking a cold shower in the fall is a very serious thing.
"Hey hey hey! Kim! Open the door!"
A series of knocking on the door brought Kim, who was holding his breath and pondering underwater, quickly back to his senses.Taking a big gulp of air to try to calm her breathing, she wiped off the drops of water on her face, and opened her mouth to shout impatiently.
"who is it?"
"What do you say?!"
Oops! With a jolt, Kim jumped out of the bathtub with a posture of a carp jumping over a dragon's gate.The voice outside the door was clearly her lady queen, damn it, she just took a shower and locked the door with her hands.Put clean water in 30 seconds, wrapped in a towel to dry her hair, Kim unlocked the door, put on a signature smile, and pretended nothing happened.
"Hello, baby, you came back from the newspaper office so soon? How is today?"
"What are you doing?" Pie looked Kim up and down, his eyes resting on her half-dried hair, "Take a shower and lock the door?"
"No...no, the door was a little too hard to close today, and the lock fell on itself."
"Oh, really?" Pie squinted at Kim who was about to squeeze out of the door, and raised his eyebrows meaningfully, "Then you can explain to me, what's going on with your cold body?"
"Ow!"
The ear was grabbed again, and this time, Pie grabbed the base of the ear, and that feeling was something Kim will never forget.He was dragged and thrown onto the sofa without any clothes on and wrapped in a bath towel. At this time, Kim was like a lamb to be slaughtered, and Pie was the big bad wolf with raging fire in his eyes.This sudden change of roles made her very uncomfortable, especially when Pie was still sitting on top of her in a very charming posture.
"I said you can't think of something serious in your head?" Seeing Kim's face brimming with spring, Pie knew what was going on in her mind.She raised her hand and tapped Kim's head lightly, the man was a little relieved, pouted and said nothing, looking aggrieved.
"Okay, down to business. Kim, let me ask you, why are you taking a cold shower?"
"It's too hot, so I want to cool down. And I have some prickly heat rash on my body, which is very itchy."
"It's very hot? It was much hotter than today, and I didn't hear you shouting that it's hot. Besides, our high-achieving students in Anda probably don't know that taking a cold shower will make prickly heat worse. Kim, you are dishonest."
Pie squinted and stared at Kim.
"Kim, tell me frankly, what happened to you yesterday?"
"It's okay, everything is fine. Work, life, everything is on track."
"Really? Then let me ask you, why did you come home so late yesterday? Why didn't Xiaobao and Kidd show up these two days, and didn't even make a phone call?"
"Please, Pie, I came back late last night because there was a dinner, and Xiaobao and I are not conjoined twins, so there is no need to be together all the time. They also have their own affairs. For example, Xiaobao may Now playing with those models at home, Kidd may be with Yam."
"Enough, Kim, I already know everything. You came back last night because you were in the police/police/department. Kidd, he got caught, didn't he? Kim, I know all of this. "
Pie's calm tone just now turned into helplessness and melancholy. She was also very anxious when these things happened, but she hoped that Kim could share the burden with her instead of carrying it on her own in a muffled voice like now. Pie is well aware, and understands, that while what she has learned in the past may not have helped Kim's career, she now very fervently wants to be inseparable from her.She hoped that she could do something for Kim, instead of everything being taken care of by Kim like now. Pie also thinks that one day she will be able to change a role and change her to take care of the person in front of her.Love, shouldn't it be like this?Take responsibility for each other, rely on each other, complain to each other, and grow together.Seeing Kim's complex expression in front of him, Pie somehow felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.She got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows with her back to Kim, with mixed feelings in her heart.She didn't know why she felt this kind of faint uneasiness in her heart. It's not that such an embarrassing situation has never happened before.Only this time, Kim didn't hug her from behind.
"Pie, I..." Kim sat up and looked in the direction where he was, but his eyes were always evasive, "I think I need to explain to you."
"Kim, what I want to hear now is not your explanation at all." Pie didn't turn around, "I just want to know why you kept it from me."
"Because you don't need to know these things." Kim's eyes were full of exhaustion and complexity, "The fewer people who know these things, the better, besides..."
"Really? But Kim, do you know that even if you are invincible outside, you are just an ordinary you at home. Do you think I really can't notice anything about you? Even if you only become 1 Minutes of frightened birds, I can also find out."
Pie's voice became thinner, even a little crying.At this moment, Kim froze.
"Kim, I'm your girlfriend. Although we haven't been together for a long time, I know you well. I know, you are thinking in your heart, Pie and Yam are girls, they are not from the business world, and they must not be able to bear it." This kind of intrigue. But Kim, don't forget that you are a girl too, and sometimes you don't have to bear so much. I also know that maybe you told me and Yam about Kidd, and we may really not be able to help .However, have you ever thought that maybe we can also help you share a little? Is it true that I am so uneasy in your eyes? "
Pie didn't know what happened today, she just felt wronged.She believed that if the things that happened yesterday were said by Kim, she would never look like this. Pie still shed tears uncontrollably, she had never been so fragile before no matter how hard it was.Even though she looks weak on the surface, she is strong in her bones.Probably because Kim has become a very important person in Pie's heart, so he has this kind of lethality.
"Okay, baby, stop talking, it's my fault, it's all my fault."
Kim can't care about other problems now, she just wants to pull Pie over and hold her in her arms.Silently wiping the tears off her face, Kim felt like the most jerk in the world. Pie didn't talk, just sobbed faintly in Kim's arms, and let her pat his back, standing silently.
"Okay, I'm fine." Pie stopped crying slowly, pulled the towel off Kim's body, and raised his head, "There are some things, I just say it."
"Is it really all right?" Kim stroked Pie's hair pityingly, "I was really scared when you did that just now."
"It's okay, really, I'm fine." Pie gently pushed Kim away, "Go and dry your hair and change your clothes, then contact Xiaobao and the others, and then explain to me."
"This... um, good."
Kim picked up the phone and turned to go upstairs, but turned around after taking two steps.
"Pie."
"Ok?"
"Have you told anyone else about this?"
"No more," Pie shook his head, "I didn't tell anyone, including Yam."
"That's good," Kim said with a sigh of relief, "uh... and more."
"what happened?"
"Well...it's nothing. Wait for me, Pie, I'll come down right away."
"Ah."
The sky became grayer, and Pie and Kim's hearts were as gloomy as the sky.
Rain seems to be coming.
☆, latent
"So, this is all that happened?"
Pie tore off the towel covering Kim's head, smoothed her messy hair a little with her hands, plugged in the plug and began to blow dry her hair.
"um, yes."
In fact, Kim still concealed part of it, such as the circle of angry people who were out of control outside the winery.The business world is full of intrigues, and she doesn't want Pie to be involved in this dispute, let alone get hurt.Besides, if this incident is really due to personal grievances, then Pie should not be allowed to get involved.It's really strange to think about it, my own style of conduct has always been aboveboard, where can I get my braids caught by others?Furthermore, no one would go to the trouble of attacking a little-known small business.It seems that there must be something leaked by an inner ghost. Kim thought, after getting Kidd out of the bureau, no matter what, he had to get this "ghost" out first, and have a good interrogation to find out who is behind the scenes.
"Did you tell me everything?"
The hair dryer was too loud for Kim to hear, so Pie raised it by a few decibels.But Kim kept frowning and biting the dead skin on her lips, as if she was not in the service area at all. Pie is a little unhappy now, and she has made a big taboo by walking away when she is talking about serious business. Pie cleared his throat, grabbed Kim's ear, and started wagging and wagging.
"Kim, what did I ask you just now, did you hear me?"
"Ah, ah, I heard." Kim reacted quickly and swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, "I told you everything about it, there is nothing to hide."
"Well..." Pie turned off the hair dryer and put it aside, and made Kim's hair look decent, "Then if there is any progress, please let me know, and I may be able to help, even if it is just a little bit .Anyway...I have nothing to do right now."
"Nothing to do? What's going on?" Kim's tone darkened immediately, "You went to the newspaper office this morning, what happened?"
"The editor-in-chief asked me to go. I thought it was because there was some important meeting to be held, but I was told that my interview was called off." Pie sighed softly, "It's because..."
"Because the well-known successor of the Lingri Group and Ling Zhongtian's youngest daughter Ling Zeqing's winery was murdered. If the report continues, it will have a great negative impact on the newspaper and the society and arouse public resentment."
Kim's face suddenly became extremely cold.
"Who was talking to you today? Is it Linda?"
"It's her, but what she said was very vague, and I didn't listen carefully, so I came back in a hurry to ask you."
"Bullshit!"
Kim slapped the coffee table with a slap.
"Who gave her the right to suspend your column without permission? Xiao Ling never said anything, I didn't say anything, the newspaper leader didn't say anything, when will it be her turn to speak!"
"Don't be so angry, the suspension of the interview is also for the sake of the newspaper and the overall situation, I can understand." Pie sat next to Kim and held her hand, "But I'm also very confused, sometimes I feel that the newspaper's The structure is quite strange, the editor-in-chief can even leapfrog to decide some matters outside the scope of jurisdiction, but the superiors don’t even have any opinions, and they don’t even ask.”
"Oh?"
This woman, it seems, is not simple behind her back. Sure enough, some people who work in the news media are always so restless, which ruins the reputation of the entire industry.The villain, always emerges in an endless stream, hard to guard against.
"So from now on, I'm a vagrant again~!"
"Aren't I too? A homeless person." Kim lovingly rubbed Pie's head, the corners of his mouth raised, "So, we who have no jobs, should we hold hands and go to a supermarket together? It's time~"
"You, little greedy cat, you never forget to eat." Pie glanced at the clock on the wall, and scratched Kim's nose, "Wait for me a little while, I'll go up and tidy up, and I'll be down soon."
"Hmm~ By the way, help me to get the car keys down~"
"Lazy pig!"
Pie quickly "tweeted" on Kim's right cheek, Lou.Kim let out a sigh of relief when he heard the sound of the door closing, and then grabbed his phone.
——Xiaobao, while investigating Zhao Rufan, help me also investigate the editor-in-chief who is in charge of Pie.
--it is good.
But within 30 seconds, Xiaobao came to reply.
——Thanks, I'm all right here, how's yours going.
——There are signs, everything is fine.Between you and me, no thanks.It's all up to you to hold on to the situation.
--clear.
The sound of slippers being tapped sounded again, Kim rubbed her brows and blinked, all the solemnity on her face dissipated.This small turmoil with Pie also ended quietly, which is fine, and I hope nothing will happen again in the future.
Also, the mastermind behind the scenes, in two days, the young master will dig you out from head to toe, and burn you until there is not even ashes left, hum!
Kim started the car, opened the sunroof, and accompanied by soothing music, drove Pie away from the community.
On the other side, Ling's mansion, in the garden.
At this time, Ling Zhongtian, who declared that he was on a business trip to attend an important meeting, was leisurely lying on the recliner with half-closed eyes, blowing the cool breeze, and the melody was still familiar, and the tea set was still the same, just the beautiful woman who accompanied him in the past , has been gone for a long time.
"I can tell by your expression that you are thinking about her again, Lao Ling."
"Old Nie, I've lived like this for decades, but sometimes, like now, I think over and over again, if I wasn't so busy at the beginning, would I have everything I have now? It's not like that."
"Brother, we are all half-buried in the loess. Some things are a foregone conclusion, so don't think about it over and over again."
"Too."
"Fortunately, the children have all grown up, I believe my sister-in-law Izumi knows, she must be very gratified."
"Cancan now has her own business and has set up a studio. She is living a carefree life. It's Qing'er, who has a temper like mine, so it's not easy to worry about."
"Qing'er just doesn't know much about the domestic situation. A tiger father has no sons, trust me. What's more, Wu Difei, that old fox, even we can't settle it all at once."
Ling Zhongtian didn't reply, just frowned and closed his eyes.After a long time, it reopened and opened its mouth slowly.
"Wu Difei is a poisonous snake, we must kill it this time!"
Suddenly a gust of wind blew off a lot of yellow leaves on the side branches.Ling Zhongtian glanced at the sky, it seemed to be much more gloomy than before.The thunderstorm had started, and the shower was about to come, so they withdrew into the house, sat opposite each other in front of the chessboard, and continued to drink tea and chat.Sure enough, not long after sitting down, there was lightning and thunder outside the house, and the floor-to-ceiling glass windows seemed to separate the inside and outside of the house into two worlds.On one side, it is cold and dark; on the other side, it is warm as usual.
"Do you still remember that it rained so heavily the last time we were plotting to bring down Wu Difei?"
"I remember, of course I remember." Ling Zhongtian looked at the cold light in Lao Nie's eyes, and his expression became more severe, "That time, we lost, almost lost everything. This time, we must win everything back. "
As soon as the voice fell, the doorbell rang.The butler opened the door and greeted the hurried Air back.She seemed to be in a hurry, her camel-colored overcoat was covered with dense traces of raindrops, and some of the ends of her hair were also stained.Taking off his coat and throwing off his high heels, Air took the towel and wiped his hair and walked into the living room. When he looked up, he caught a glimpse of the two figures who had been waiting for him.
"Father, Uncle Nie, I'm back."
Air pulled aside the delicate soft chair and sat down, his expression not very good.Seeing this situation, Ling Zhongtian probably knew about it.He took the empty cup at hand, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Air.
"Thank you, Cancan, is the situation bad?"
"Thank you, Dad." Air took the teacup and held it in his hand, "The situation is indeed as we expected, but... it seems to be worse than we expected."
"Other than Wu Difei, who else is involved in the matter of the winery?"
"Jane."
Air held his forehead.
"Based on the evidence we have now, Jane is inseparable. Also, it appears that she is the mastermind."
"Oh?"
Both Ling Zhongtian and Lao Nie felt the seriousness of the matter.
"I thought that this child would still become a person of high moral character like her grandfather. Unexpectedly, she would also lose the bottom line of being a human being because of her own anger and jealousy."
"The world is unpredictable." Lao Nie rolled his eyes, "The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Jane is a good seed, but it's a pity."
"Other things are as we thought. Wu Difei has planted eyeliners around each of us in the past ten years, monitoring our every move, including me."
"It's really hard work. Wu Difei can be considered to be well-intentioned to cultivate such a group of people who have been lurking by our side for so long without being discovered."
"Old Nie, you said we have such a 'brother', should we be glad or sad?"
Ling Zhongtian sneered sarcastically.
"Have you got the list yet?"
"It's all here." Air took out a USB flash drive from his bag and placed it on the table. "Basically, all of them have been recruited. There are still a few stubborn ones who are trying to find a way."
"Wu Difei is best at coercion and temptation. Those people who are willing to do things for him are either caught by him, or they ask him for something." Lao Nie grabbed some of his white pieces in the chess box and held them in his hands. Playing around, "Let them know that we can do what Wu Difei can do. Moreover, we are a hundred times more righteous than him, and we will never cross rivers and tear down bridges."
"Huairou policy." Ling Zhongtian landed a sunspot and captured the opponent's white piece, "The one who is lurking is still lurking, but it has been used by us, so play a trick with him."
"The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows. He has done so many unrighteous things, we should have a break with him."
Lao Nie stopped what he was doing, scanned the chessboard out of the corner of his eye, shook his head with a smile, and threw all the chess pieces back into the chess box.
"I lost, eh~ I've been playing chess for half my life, and I haven't won a few times. I'm leaving, and I'm going home."
"Aren't you going to stay for dinner?"
Ling Zhongtian smiled slightly, and put the chess pieces on the chessboard back into the chess box according to their colors.
"I don't want to eat, I don't feel good because I didn't win the chess game, I'd better go home and eat, because the one at home is nagging again."
"Okay, let's go slowly, let's go according to plan."
"it is good."
The driver sent Lao Nie back secretly, and Ling Zhongtian silently turned on the tape recorder at hand.The tape is very old, and I have listened to it many times, and sometimes it will get stuck.But at this time, Ling Zhongtian just adjusted the tape quietly, and then put it back into the tape recorder.If one word were to be used to describe him now, then that word would definitely not be a business elite, but an ordinary and affectionate head of the family, nothing more.
"Father, if you feel uncomfortable, stop listening." Air raised his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he said lightly, "You have been listening to this "Nocturne" for many years."
"Chopin's "Nocturne" was your mother's favorite piano piece. It was also the piece she was playing when we first met."
At this moment, Ling Zhongtian became more and more gentle.He stroked the ring on his ring finger, his eyes full of affection.
"Cancan, losing a loved one is never easy. But there will always be a moment when you will feel happy, such as now, such as in the future."
"Dad, I think Kim...she should know the truth too."
"She will know, but not now." Ling Zhongtian looked worried, "She still needs to practice, otherwise how can she take on the responsibility of a business and a family."
"Well, I see."
Air curled his lips, and reached out to brush the broken hair on his forehead.
"Also, Linda's identity is unusual. Moreover, it seems to be related to your past."
"hiss--"
Ling Zhongtian frowned.
"It seems that this latent battle is not that simple."
☆, return
After shopping in the supermarket, I went home and packed up, and the time passed quickly.Although today's content is the same as every day before, both Kim and Pie feel like a stone has been crushed in their hearts, they are sleepy and have no energy at all.The two sat side by side on the sofa in the living room, and the funny program that was broadcast every day was still on the TV, but the usual laughter and laughter disappeared without a trace today.
That's right, now that so many things have happened, who has the mind to pay attention to how funny those messy old memes are on TV?Now both of them have a lot of worries in their hearts.
Kim is anxious, when will there be news?Almost 24 hours have passed, and I don't know if those bastards in the police station have wronged Kidd.You must know that the "special means" in the bureau are rich and diverse. If he hadn't heard what his father said, Kim would not have believed that such barbaric things would still happen in this civilized age.I don't know if the past life went too smoothly or what, the recent troubles come one after another, and they are all crowded together, and I really feel rushed.She also found it strange that Pie's column was suspended, and always felt that there was a third-party force at work. Kim secretly made up her mind that she must settle these things before the sun rises tomorrow.Procrastination is useless, now is the time to be quicker than anyone else, Kim has to make a move before the opponent makes the next move, and can no longer be led by the nose.After cleaning up those tricksters, she will check the city daily carefully to see how much pussy is hidden in it. Kim pretended to glance at Pie casually. Although she didn't say much about the suspension of the column, it could be seen from her expression that she was still very disappointed.In order to keep Pie from being wronged, Kim has to speed up, win this dark battle, and protect the loved ones around him from any harm.
And Pie is also worried.Although Yi Yi was staring intently at the TV screen, she could feel that Kim was peeking at herself from time to time.Although I didn't personally participate in it, I can really feel the seriousness of the situation. Kim was still like a child, her thoughts were written all over her face, seeing her loss of appetite when eating just now, Pie's mood gradually became gloomy.For some reason, she always had a lingering sense of powerlessness in her heart.I have to say that Kim is really considerate and can always arrange everything in every possible way, but he is at a loss when she is in urgent need of help.Thinking of this, Pie couldn't help blaming the newspaper.Although on the surface it is to protect their own interests, it is inevitable that they will be suspected of playing tricks on the wind and fall into the shoes of others.
"Uh...Pie?"
"Ok?"
Just as Pie was brainstorming how to help Kim share a little trouble, the latter hesitated to speak.
"what happened?"
"No...it's nothing. I just wanted to ask you if we should go upstairs to have a rest. I woke up a little early in the morning."
Kim pouted, her eyelids drooped, and she half-opened, looking very sleepy. Seeing her listless appearance, Pie felt very distressed, sat up and hugged her head, and kissed her gently and naturally.
"Okay, let's go upstairs to rest for a while."
Kim is very quiet today, not jumping up and down like usual.Help this sweet baby make up the pillow bed, and Pie lays down with her.But the difference is that this time it was Kim who got into Pie's arms, kissed her neck, and rubbed her neck.This feeling of being needed warmed Pie's heart. Seeing Kim's cute expression at the moment, she couldn't stop kissing her forehead lightly.Perhaps at this time, such quiet tranquility is the best comfort.No words, no noise, just a familiar embrace is enough. Pie always believed that she and Kim had a heart-to-heart relationship from the beginning of their acquaintance.She could read the longing in Kim's eyes, and was fascinated by the childishness behind her domineering image. Pie was thinking that after these turmoil subsided, she and Kim would let go of the trivial and complicated life in a fast-paced life, and let her experience the leisure and ease of a slow-paced life.The elders in the family have called several times to urge them, always saying that they are missing a match. Pie was embarrassed to refuse, so he simply agreed, and took Kim back to have a look in a few days.After all, her family is only complete with Kim.
Some slight snores sounded, Pie knew that Kim had already fallen asleep.The way she curled up in a ball made Pie's heart flutter so much that he couldn't help hugging her even tighter.It's just that this kind of peace and comfort didn't last long, and soon, a series of hasty knocks on the door mixed with Ken's wild barking pulled Pie back who was about to fall asleep.Seeing that Kim in her arms began to frown slightly, she hurriedly closed the door of the room lightly and quickly went downstairs.
Who is the one? thought Pie.Visiting at this point, and Ken is still so manic, it always gives her a bad feeling.After finally pulling Ken to calm him down a bit, Pie looked at the electronic display next to the door, but he could only see the person outside the door wearing a solemn black professional attire.She hesitated, but after thinking for a moment, she opened the intercom and asked.
"Hello, may I ask...who are you looking for?"
The moment the voice fell, the knock on the door stopped abruptly, and the scene fell into a strange silence. Pie waited for a long time, but did not see any response from outside the door, so he thought it was some prank, turned around and prepared to go back to the bedroom.
"Miss Su, please open the door."
Although this voice is not often heard, it will never be forgotten by Pie.Isn't this Jane?Her heart actually started to get a little nervous to the point of panic.Looking back at the screen again, indeed, this figure and style are very similar to her.It's just why she came here at this moment?If Pie remembers correctly, Jane should still be on vacation in Paris.
"You... hello."
However, there wasn't much time for Pie to think about anything.After taking a few deep breaths, she pretended to be calm and opened the door.In her impression, Jane should be flirtatious, she should be the kind of person who exudes charm from every pore from head to toe, but she feels very different today.The high and neat ponytail, the elegant and delicate professional makeup, and the rigorous black suit on her body make Jane a charming image of a working woman. Pie didn't know that she could switch between these two styles so freely.Facing Jane like this, she actually felt an inexplicable jealousy and worry.Even though it was only a few seconds, it still broke Pie's pretended calmness.
Jane's outfit this time matches Kim's suit.
She couldn't stop thinking.
"Jane, how many times have I told you, there's a video intercom on the doorbell, don't knock like that, Ken doesn't like it."
Just when Pie was still standing blankly in front of Jane, thinking wildly, Kim had already come out of the room.Her eyes were bloodshot red, and her face was more tired than before.Hearing Kim's voice, Pie stepped back subconsciously and hid behind her. Seeing this, Kim gently held Pie's hand behind her back, gave her a warm smile, then put away her smile and looked at Jane expressionlessly.
"How many times has it been, don't you remember?"
"Oh, I don't have the time and mood to care about a dog's preferences."
Jane swept across Pie's face with indifferent eyes, closed the door without changing her expression, and walked straight in front of Kim.
"It's not like you, no matter what big things happen outside, you still have the time and mood to stay at home, with your arms full."
"Jane, if you don't understand what's going on, don't make unreasonable comments here."
Kim was a little annoyed, after dealing with Air about various matters related to the company just now, Jane used this tone to mock herself again, making it clear that she wanted to embarrass Pie with herself. Kim naturally knew the purpose of Jane's visit this time, but she just didn't like her attitude.If you can't fully control your own life, what right do you have to interfere in other people's lives?
Especially, her life with Pie.
"Change your clothes, make yourself look like a human being, and come with me."
Jane still had no expression on her face, and she sat down on the sofa after speaking. Kim gave her a sideways look, but finally ignored her and dragged Pie upstairs.She knew that even though Pie didn't say a word, she could tell from the slight sweat on her palm that this little girl had something on her mind.Quietly closing the door, Kim held Pie in his arms, looked at the slight displeasure on her face, and kissed her forehead.
"Silly goose."
"Huh? You're calling me?" Pie came back to his senses, raised his big eyes and looked innocently at Kim, "You're the fool, heh, I'm not stupid, I'm smart."
"Haha." Kim was elated, "Okay baby, can you help me find some clothes? We're going out now."
"It's you who want to go out, not us." Unknowingly, Pie pouted again, "Jane didn't say to take me."
"But I want to take you there. This matter is not up to Jane." Kim smiled and scratched Pie's nose. "Besides, she and I are going to the police/station, not on a date."
"Police/department? Can Jane save Kidd?"
"I don't know. But judging by her appearance, there should be a way."
Kim rubbed Pie's face.
"So my little baby, would you like to find me a suit quickly?"
"I see, I'm so lazy to even look for clothes." Pie gently pushed Kim away, and opened the closet door, "Which outfit do you want to wear?"
"You see what you like, just be a little more formal."
"What about me? What should I wear?" Pie frowned, "I don't seem to have any formal clothes."
"It's okay, you look natural now, it's fine."
"Okay, then let's hurry up and don't keep Jane waiting."
"it is good."
The whole way to the police station, Jane was driving, and Kim sat in the passenger seat with her eyes closed and discussed with her how to deal with it. Pie didn't speak in the back seat, but just listened quietly, occasionally answering two questions from Kim, but only limited to simple words like "um" and "it's okay".The strange thing is that at this moment, why did the little emotions just now start to surge again? Pie doesn't understand, and doesn't know.
She just felt for a moment that Jane and Kim were such a good match.
She just felt for a moment that she was like an outsider.
Su Xiaopai, what are you thinking about? Kim has always loved you, don't think about it.
The weather is still overcast, and with the passage of time, it is getting darker and darker.Listening to Jane's tone, it seems that she is [-]% sure that she can get Kidd out, and Pie is also relieved.
But this heart always feels stuffy.
☆, concern
This Porsche 911 is wild, but under Jane's control, it seems even crazier.Although it is not the dead of night, the roar of the engine is getting more and more harsh on the busy street.Compared with Kim, Jane seems to like the feeling of the engine running at high speed.Perhaps this has an inseparable connection with her character. No matter where she goes, Jane is always on the go, making everyone's focus on her alone.If Kim is a majestic and deep lion king, then in comparison, Jane is more like a roaring jackal, which makes people feel completely unfavorable.Sitting in the back seat of the car, Pie kept frowning.She didn't like such loud voices the most, but Kim was always very considerate on weekdays and never made herself feel a little uncomfortable.So, riding in her car, Pie is always happy physically and mentally.But now as soon as Jane appeared, the atmosphere became more and more subtle.Especially in a closed space like a car, the surrounding air seems to be filled with an extremely embarrassing atmosphere.
"Jane, can you stop turning my car into a tractor." Kim suddenly opened his eyes, turned to stare at Jane, "That's not how my car is driven."
"Why, you're starting to get used to it?" Jane glanced at Kim's serious face from the corner of her eye, "I thought you'd already gotten used to it when you were in Australia."
A seemingly casual smile drifted across the corner of Jane's mouth, but this smile made Kim feel uncomfortable.
"Australia is Australia, and this is China. Now that you're back, you have to obey the rules." Kim glanced at Pie with a blank expression through the rearview mirror, "Besides, the past is not the present."
"Well, that's right, the past is definitely not the present." Jane followed Kim's gaze and glanced at Pie, with a weird smile in the corner of her eyes, "Kim, do you understand what I just told you? "
"I understand, I understand, but can you stop using those heretical tricks?" Kim frowned slightly, "I feel very undecent to do so."
"Kim, it seems that you still don't understand the rules here." Jane shook her head, "Extreme times, extreme means. If you don't want to see Kidd come out with bruises, just do as I say."
"Okay, just this time, not the next time."
With a beautiful turn and tail flick, Jane drove the car into the police station.The appearance of such a supercar here has really attracted the attention of many people.What's more, two young talents with strong aura and a girl who looks like a student got out of the car. This strange combination couldn't help but make everyone's eyes stay on them for three more seconds.Followed into the hall, Pie silently tugged at the corner of Kim's clothes, raised her eyes from time to time to look at her expressionless side face, and said nothing quietly.At the end of the corridor is a staircase, following up, Xiaobao appeared in front of him.After a simple eye contact and a few whispers, Kim shook Pie's hand, exhaled, and entered the conference room with Jane.Suddenly, Pie was enveloped by an unprecedented sense of loneliness.Although she
"Hey hey hey! Kim! Open the door!"
A series of knocking on the door brought Kim, who was holding his breath and pondering underwater, quickly back to his senses.Taking a big gulp of air to try to calm her breathing, she wiped off the drops of water on her face, and opened her mouth to shout impatiently.
"who is it?"
"What do you say?!"
Oops! With a jolt, Kim jumped out of the bathtub with a posture of a carp jumping over a dragon's gate.The voice outside the door was clearly her lady queen, damn it, she just took a shower and locked the door with her hands.Put clean water in 30 seconds, wrapped in a towel to dry her hair, Kim unlocked the door, put on a signature smile, and pretended nothing happened.
"Hello, baby, you came back from the newspaper office so soon? How is today?"
"What are you doing?" Pie looked Kim up and down, his eyes resting on her half-dried hair, "Take a shower and lock the door?"
"No...no, the door was a little too hard to close today, and the lock fell on itself."
"Oh, really?" Pie squinted at Kim who was about to squeeze out of the door, and raised his eyebrows meaningfully, "Then you can explain to me, what's going on with your cold body?"
"Ow!"
The ear was grabbed again, and this time, Pie grabbed the base of the ear, and that feeling was something Kim will never forget.He was dragged and thrown onto the sofa without any clothes on and wrapped in a bath towel. At this time, Kim was like a lamb to be slaughtered, and Pie was the big bad wolf with raging fire in his eyes.This sudden change of roles made her very uncomfortable, especially when Pie was still sitting on top of her in a very charming posture.
"I said you can't think of something serious in your head?" Seeing Kim's face brimming with spring, Pie knew what was going on in her mind.She raised her hand and tapped Kim's head lightly, the man was a little relieved, pouted and said nothing, looking aggrieved.
"Okay, down to business. Kim, let me ask you, why are you taking a cold shower?"
"It's too hot, so I want to cool down. And I have some prickly heat rash on my body, which is very itchy."
"It's very hot? It was much hotter than today, and I didn't hear you shouting that it's hot. Besides, our high-achieving students in Anda probably don't know that taking a cold shower will make prickly heat worse. Kim, you are dishonest."
Pie squinted and stared at Kim.
"Kim, tell me frankly, what happened to you yesterday?"
"It's okay, everything is fine. Work, life, everything is on track."
"Really? Then let me ask you, why did you come home so late yesterday? Why didn't Xiaobao and Kidd show up these two days, and didn't even make a phone call?"
"Please, Pie, I came back late last night because there was a dinner, and Xiaobao and I are not conjoined twins, so there is no need to be together all the time. They also have their own affairs. For example, Xiaobao may Now playing with those models at home, Kidd may be with Yam."
"Enough, Kim, I already know everything. You came back last night because you were in the police/police/department. Kidd, he got caught, didn't he? Kim, I know all of this. "
Pie's calm tone just now turned into helplessness and melancholy. She was also very anxious when these things happened, but she hoped that Kim could share the burden with her instead of carrying it on her own in a muffled voice like now. Pie is well aware, and understands, that while what she has learned in the past may not have helped Kim's career, she now very fervently wants to be inseparable from her.She hoped that she could do something for Kim, instead of everything being taken care of by Kim like now. Pie also thinks that one day she will be able to change a role and change her to take care of the person in front of her.Love, shouldn't it be like this?Take responsibility for each other, rely on each other, complain to each other, and grow together.Seeing Kim's complex expression in front of him, Pie somehow felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.She got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows with her back to Kim, with mixed feelings in her heart.She didn't know why she felt this kind of faint uneasiness in her heart. It's not that such an embarrassing situation has never happened before.Only this time, Kim didn't hug her from behind.
"Pie, I..." Kim sat up and looked in the direction where he was, but his eyes were always evasive, "I think I need to explain to you."
"Kim, what I want to hear now is not your explanation at all." Pie didn't turn around, "I just want to know why you kept it from me."
"Because you don't need to know these things." Kim's eyes were full of exhaustion and complexity, "The fewer people who know these things, the better, besides..."
"Really? But Kim, do you know that even if you are invincible outside, you are just an ordinary you at home. Do you think I really can't notice anything about you? Even if you only become 1 Minutes of frightened birds, I can also find out."
Pie's voice became thinner, even a little crying.At this moment, Kim froze.
"Kim, I'm your girlfriend. Although we haven't been together for a long time, I know you well. I know, you are thinking in your heart, Pie and Yam are girls, they are not from the business world, and they must not be able to bear it." This kind of intrigue. But Kim, don't forget that you are a girl too, and sometimes you don't have to bear so much. I also know that maybe you told me and Yam about Kidd, and we may really not be able to help .However, have you ever thought that maybe we can also help you share a little? Is it true that I am so uneasy in your eyes? "
Pie didn't know what happened today, she just felt wronged.She believed that if the things that happened yesterday were said by Kim, she would never look like this. Pie still shed tears uncontrollably, she had never been so fragile before no matter how hard it was.Even though she looks weak on the surface, she is strong in her bones.Probably because Kim has become a very important person in Pie's heart, so he has this kind of lethality.
"Okay, baby, stop talking, it's my fault, it's all my fault."
Kim can't care about other problems now, she just wants to pull Pie over and hold her in her arms.Silently wiping the tears off her face, Kim felt like the most jerk in the world. Pie didn't talk, just sobbed faintly in Kim's arms, and let her pat his back, standing silently.
"Okay, I'm fine." Pie stopped crying slowly, pulled the towel off Kim's body, and raised his head, "There are some things, I just say it."
"Is it really all right?" Kim stroked Pie's hair pityingly, "I was really scared when you did that just now."
"It's okay, really, I'm fine." Pie gently pushed Kim away, "Go and dry your hair and change your clothes, then contact Xiaobao and the others, and then explain to me."
"This... um, good."
Kim picked up the phone and turned to go upstairs, but turned around after taking two steps.
"Pie."
"Ok?"
"Have you told anyone else about this?"
"No more," Pie shook his head, "I didn't tell anyone, including Yam."
"That's good," Kim said with a sigh of relief, "uh... and more."
"what happened?"
"Well...it's nothing. Wait for me, Pie, I'll come down right away."
"Ah."
The sky became grayer, and Pie and Kim's hearts were as gloomy as the sky.
Rain seems to be coming.
☆, latent
"So, this is all that happened?"
Pie tore off the towel covering Kim's head, smoothed her messy hair a little with her hands, plugged in the plug and began to blow dry her hair.
"um, yes."
In fact, Kim still concealed part of it, such as the circle of angry people who were out of control outside the winery.The business world is full of intrigues, and she doesn't want Pie to be involved in this dispute, let alone get hurt.Besides, if this incident is really due to personal grievances, then Pie should not be allowed to get involved.It's really strange to think about it, my own style of conduct has always been aboveboard, where can I get my braids caught by others?Furthermore, no one would go to the trouble of attacking a little-known small business.It seems that there must be something leaked by an inner ghost. Kim thought, after getting Kidd out of the bureau, no matter what, he had to get this "ghost" out first, and have a good interrogation to find out who is behind the scenes.
"Did you tell me everything?"
The hair dryer was too loud for Kim to hear, so Pie raised it by a few decibels.But Kim kept frowning and biting the dead skin on her lips, as if she was not in the service area at all. Pie is a little unhappy now, and she has made a big taboo by walking away when she is talking about serious business. Pie cleared his throat, grabbed Kim's ear, and started wagging and wagging.
"Kim, what did I ask you just now, did you hear me?"
"Ah, ah, I heard." Kim reacted quickly and swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, "I told you everything about it, there is nothing to hide."
"Well..." Pie turned off the hair dryer and put it aside, and made Kim's hair look decent, "Then if there is any progress, please let me know, and I may be able to help, even if it is just a little bit .Anyway...I have nothing to do right now."
"Nothing to do? What's going on?" Kim's tone darkened immediately, "You went to the newspaper office this morning, what happened?"
"The editor-in-chief asked me to go. I thought it was because there was some important meeting to be held, but I was told that my interview was called off." Pie sighed softly, "It's because..."
"Because the well-known successor of the Lingri Group and Ling Zhongtian's youngest daughter Ling Zeqing's winery was murdered. If the report continues, it will have a great negative impact on the newspaper and the society and arouse public resentment."
Kim's face suddenly became extremely cold.
"Who was talking to you today? Is it Linda?"
"It's her, but what she said was very vague, and I didn't listen carefully, so I came back in a hurry to ask you."
"Bullshit!"
Kim slapped the coffee table with a slap.
"Who gave her the right to suspend your column without permission? Xiao Ling never said anything, I didn't say anything, the newspaper leader didn't say anything, when will it be her turn to speak!"
"Don't be so angry, the suspension of the interview is also for the sake of the newspaper and the overall situation, I can understand." Pie sat next to Kim and held her hand, "But I'm also very confused, sometimes I feel that the newspaper's The structure is quite strange, the editor-in-chief can even leapfrog to decide some matters outside the scope of jurisdiction, but the superiors don’t even have any opinions, and they don’t even ask.”
"Oh?"
This woman, it seems, is not simple behind her back. Sure enough, some people who work in the news media are always so restless, which ruins the reputation of the entire industry.The villain, always emerges in an endless stream, hard to guard against.
"So from now on, I'm a vagrant again~!"
"Aren't I too? A homeless person." Kim lovingly rubbed Pie's head, the corners of his mouth raised, "So, we who have no jobs, should we hold hands and go to a supermarket together? It's time~"
"You, little greedy cat, you never forget to eat." Pie glanced at the clock on the wall, and scratched Kim's nose, "Wait for me a little while, I'll go up and tidy up, and I'll be down soon."
"Hmm~ By the way, help me to get the car keys down~"
"Lazy pig!"
Pie quickly "tweeted" on Kim's right cheek, Lou.Kim let out a sigh of relief when he heard the sound of the door closing, and then grabbed his phone.
——Xiaobao, while investigating Zhao Rufan, help me also investigate the editor-in-chief who is in charge of Pie.
--it is good.
But within 30 seconds, Xiaobao came to reply.
——Thanks, I'm all right here, how's yours going.
——There are signs, everything is fine.Between you and me, no thanks.It's all up to you to hold on to the situation.
--clear.
The sound of slippers being tapped sounded again, Kim rubbed her brows and blinked, all the solemnity on her face dissipated.This small turmoil with Pie also ended quietly, which is fine, and I hope nothing will happen again in the future.
Also, the mastermind behind the scenes, in two days, the young master will dig you out from head to toe, and burn you until there is not even ashes left, hum!
Kim started the car, opened the sunroof, and accompanied by soothing music, drove Pie away from the community.
On the other side, Ling's mansion, in the garden.
At this time, Ling Zhongtian, who declared that he was on a business trip to attend an important meeting, was leisurely lying on the recliner with half-closed eyes, blowing the cool breeze, and the melody was still familiar, and the tea set was still the same, just the beautiful woman who accompanied him in the past , has been gone for a long time.
"I can tell by your expression that you are thinking about her again, Lao Ling."
"Old Nie, I've lived like this for decades, but sometimes, like now, I think over and over again, if I wasn't so busy at the beginning, would I have everything I have now? It's not like that."
"Brother, we are all half-buried in the loess. Some things are a foregone conclusion, so don't think about it over and over again."
"Too."
"Fortunately, the children have all grown up, I believe my sister-in-law Izumi knows, she must be very gratified."
"Cancan now has her own business and has set up a studio. She is living a carefree life. It's Qing'er, who has a temper like mine, so it's not easy to worry about."
"Qing'er just doesn't know much about the domestic situation. A tiger father has no sons, trust me. What's more, Wu Difei, that old fox, even we can't settle it all at once."
Ling Zhongtian didn't reply, just frowned and closed his eyes.After a long time, it reopened and opened its mouth slowly.
"Wu Difei is a poisonous snake, we must kill it this time!"
Suddenly a gust of wind blew off a lot of yellow leaves on the side branches.Ling Zhongtian glanced at the sky, it seemed to be much more gloomy than before.The thunderstorm had started, and the shower was about to come, so they withdrew into the house, sat opposite each other in front of the chessboard, and continued to drink tea and chat.Sure enough, not long after sitting down, there was lightning and thunder outside the house, and the floor-to-ceiling glass windows seemed to separate the inside and outside of the house into two worlds.On one side, it is cold and dark; on the other side, it is warm as usual.
"Do you still remember that it rained so heavily the last time we were plotting to bring down Wu Difei?"
"I remember, of course I remember." Ling Zhongtian looked at the cold light in Lao Nie's eyes, and his expression became more severe, "That time, we lost, almost lost everything. This time, we must win everything back. "
As soon as the voice fell, the doorbell rang.The butler opened the door and greeted the hurried Air back.She seemed to be in a hurry, her camel-colored overcoat was covered with dense traces of raindrops, and some of the ends of her hair were also stained.Taking off his coat and throwing off his high heels, Air took the towel and wiped his hair and walked into the living room. When he looked up, he caught a glimpse of the two figures who had been waiting for him.
"Father, Uncle Nie, I'm back."
Air pulled aside the delicate soft chair and sat down, his expression not very good.Seeing this situation, Ling Zhongtian probably knew about it.He took the empty cup at hand, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Air.
"Thank you, Cancan, is the situation bad?"
"Thank you, Dad." Air took the teacup and held it in his hand, "The situation is indeed as we expected, but... it seems to be worse than we expected."
"Other than Wu Difei, who else is involved in the matter of the winery?"
"Jane."
Air held his forehead.
"Based on the evidence we have now, Jane is inseparable. Also, it appears that she is the mastermind."
"Oh?"
Both Ling Zhongtian and Lao Nie felt the seriousness of the matter.
"I thought that this child would still become a person of high moral character like her grandfather. Unexpectedly, she would also lose the bottom line of being a human being because of her own anger and jealousy."
"The world is unpredictable." Lao Nie rolled his eyes, "The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Jane is a good seed, but it's a pity."
"Other things are as we thought. Wu Difei has planted eyeliners around each of us in the past ten years, monitoring our every move, including me."
"It's really hard work. Wu Difei can be considered to be well-intentioned to cultivate such a group of people who have been lurking by our side for so long without being discovered."
"Old Nie, you said we have such a 'brother', should we be glad or sad?"
Ling Zhongtian sneered sarcastically.
"Have you got the list yet?"
"It's all here." Air took out a USB flash drive from his bag and placed it on the table. "Basically, all of them have been recruited. There are still a few stubborn ones who are trying to find a way."
"Wu Difei is best at coercion and temptation. Those people who are willing to do things for him are either caught by him, or they ask him for something." Lao Nie grabbed some of his white pieces in the chess box and held them in his hands. Playing around, "Let them know that we can do what Wu Difei can do. Moreover, we are a hundred times more righteous than him, and we will never cross rivers and tear down bridges."
"Huairou policy." Ling Zhongtian landed a sunspot and captured the opponent's white piece, "The one who is lurking is still lurking, but it has been used by us, so play a trick with him."
"The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows. He has done so many unrighteous things, we should have a break with him."
Lao Nie stopped what he was doing, scanned the chessboard out of the corner of his eye, shook his head with a smile, and threw all the chess pieces back into the chess box.
"I lost, eh~ I've been playing chess for half my life, and I haven't won a few times. I'm leaving, and I'm going home."
"Aren't you going to stay for dinner?"
Ling Zhongtian smiled slightly, and put the chess pieces on the chessboard back into the chess box according to their colors.
"I don't want to eat, I don't feel good because I didn't win the chess game, I'd better go home and eat, because the one at home is nagging again."
"Okay, let's go slowly, let's go according to plan."
"it is good."
The driver sent Lao Nie back secretly, and Ling Zhongtian silently turned on the tape recorder at hand.The tape is very old, and I have listened to it many times, and sometimes it will get stuck.But at this time, Ling Zhongtian just adjusted the tape quietly, and then put it back into the tape recorder.If one word were to be used to describe him now, then that word would definitely not be a business elite, but an ordinary and affectionate head of the family, nothing more.
"Father, if you feel uncomfortable, stop listening." Air raised his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he said lightly, "You have been listening to this "Nocturne" for many years."
"Chopin's "Nocturne" was your mother's favorite piano piece. It was also the piece she was playing when we first met."
At this moment, Ling Zhongtian became more and more gentle.He stroked the ring on his ring finger, his eyes full of affection.
"Cancan, losing a loved one is never easy. But there will always be a moment when you will feel happy, such as now, such as in the future."
"Dad, I think Kim...she should know the truth too."
"She will know, but not now." Ling Zhongtian looked worried, "She still needs to practice, otherwise how can she take on the responsibility of a business and a family."
"Well, I see."
Air curled his lips, and reached out to brush the broken hair on his forehead.
"Also, Linda's identity is unusual. Moreover, it seems to be related to your past."
"hiss--"
Ling Zhongtian frowned.
"It seems that this latent battle is not that simple."
☆, return
After shopping in the supermarket, I went home and packed up, and the time passed quickly.Although today's content is the same as every day before, both Kim and Pie feel like a stone has been crushed in their hearts, they are sleepy and have no energy at all.The two sat side by side on the sofa in the living room, and the funny program that was broadcast every day was still on the TV, but the usual laughter and laughter disappeared without a trace today.
That's right, now that so many things have happened, who has the mind to pay attention to how funny those messy old memes are on TV?Now both of them have a lot of worries in their hearts.
Kim is anxious, when will there be news?Almost 24 hours have passed, and I don't know if those bastards in the police station have wronged Kidd.You must know that the "special means" in the bureau are rich and diverse. If he hadn't heard what his father said, Kim would not have believed that such barbaric things would still happen in this civilized age.I don't know if the past life went too smoothly or what, the recent troubles come one after another, and they are all crowded together, and I really feel rushed.She also found it strange that Pie's column was suspended, and always felt that there was a third-party force at work. Kim secretly made up her mind that she must settle these things before the sun rises tomorrow.Procrastination is useless, now is the time to be quicker than anyone else, Kim has to make a move before the opponent makes the next move, and can no longer be led by the nose.After cleaning up those tricksters, she will check the city daily carefully to see how much pussy is hidden in it. Kim pretended to glance at Pie casually. Although she didn't say much about the suspension of the column, it could be seen from her expression that she was still very disappointed.In order to keep Pie from being wronged, Kim has to speed up, win this dark battle, and protect the loved ones around him from any harm.
And Pie is also worried.Although Yi Yi was staring intently at the TV screen, she could feel that Kim was peeking at herself from time to time.Although I didn't personally participate in it, I can really feel the seriousness of the situation. Kim was still like a child, her thoughts were written all over her face, seeing her loss of appetite when eating just now, Pie's mood gradually became gloomy.For some reason, she always had a lingering sense of powerlessness in her heart.I have to say that Kim is really considerate and can always arrange everything in every possible way, but he is at a loss when she is in urgent need of help.Thinking of this, Pie couldn't help blaming the newspaper.Although on the surface it is to protect their own interests, it is inevitable that they will be suspected of playing tricks on the wind and fall into the shoes of others.
"Uh...Pie?"
"Ok?"
Just as Pie was brainstorming how to help Kim share a little trouble, the latter hesitated to speak.
"what happened?"
"No...it's nothing. I just wanted to ask you if we should go upstairs to have a rest. I woke up a little early in the morning."
Kim pouted, her eyelids drooped, and she half-opened, looking very sleepy. Seeing her listless appearance, Pie felt very distressed, sat up and hugged her head, and kissed her gently and naturally.
"Okay, let's go upstairs to rest for a while."
Kim is very quiet today, not jumping up and down like usual.Help this sweet baby make up the pillow bed, and Pie lays down with her.But the difference is that this time it was Kim who got into Pie's arms, kissed her neck, and rubbed her neck.This feeling of being needed warmed Pie's heart. Seeing Kim's cute expression at the moment, she couldn't stop kissing her forehead lightly.Perhaps at this time, such quiet tranquility is the best comfort.No words, no noise, just a familiar embrace is enough. Pie always believed that she and Kim had a heart-to-heart relationship from the beginning of their acquaintance.She could read the longing in Kim's eyes, and was fascinated by the childishness behind her domineering image. Pie was thinking that after these turmoil subsided, she and Kim would let go of the trivial and complicated life in a fast-paced life, and let her experience the leisure and ease of a slow-paced life.The elders in the family have called several times to urge them, always saying that they are missing a match. Pie was embarrassed to refuse, so he simply agreed, and took Kim back to have a look in a few days.After all, her family is only complete with Kim.
Some slight snores sounded, Pie knew that Kim had already fallen asleep.The way she curled up in a ball made Pie's heart flutter so much that he couldn't help hugging her even tighter.It's just that this kind of peace and comfort didn't last long, and soon, a series of hasty knocks on the door mixed with Ken's wild barking pulled Pie back who was about to fall asleep.Seeing that Kim in her arms began to frown slightly, she hurriedly closed the door of the room lightly and quickly went downstairs.
Who is the one? thought Pie.Visiting at this point, and Ken is still so manic, it always gives her a bad feeling.After finally pulling Ken to calm him down a bit, Pie looked at the electronic display next to the door, but he could only see the person outside the door wearing a solemn black professional attire.She hesitated, but after thinking for a moment, she opened the intercom and asked.
"Hello, may I ask...who are you looking for?"
The moment the voice fell, the knock on the door stopped abruptly, and the scene fell into a strange silence. Pie waited for a long time, but did not see any response from outside the door, so he thought it was some prank, turned around and prepared to go back to the bedroom.
"Miss Su, please open the door."
Although this voice is not often heard, it will never be forgotten by Pie.Isn't this Jane?Her heart actually started to get a little nervous to the point of panic.Looking back at the screen again, indeed, this figure and style are very similar to her.It's just why she came here at this moment?If Pie remembers correctly, Jane should still be on vacation in Paris.
"You... hello."
However, there wasn't much time for Pie to think about anything.After taking a few deep breaths, she pretended to be calm and opened the door.In her impression, Jane should be flirtatious, she should be the kind of person who exudes charm from every pore from head to toe, but she feels very different today.The high and neat ponytail, the elegant and delicate professional makeup, and the rigorous black suit on her body make Jane a charming image of a working woman. Pie didn't know that she could switch between these two styles so freely.Facing Jane like this, she actually felt an inexplicable jealousy and worry.Even though it was only a few seconds, it still broke Pie's pretended calmness.
Jane's outfit this time matches Kim's suit.
She couldn't stop thinking.
"Jane, how many times have I told you, there's a video intercom on the doorbell, don't knock like that, Ken doesn't like it."
Just when Pie was still standing blankly in front of Jane, thinking wildly, Kim had already come out of the room.Her eyes were bloodshot red, and her face was more tired than before.Hearing Kim's voice, Pie stepped back subconsciously and hid behind her. Seeing this, Kim gently held Pie's hand behind her back, gave her a warm smile, then put away her smile and looked at Jane expressionlessly.
"How many times has it been, don't you remember?"
"Oh, I don't have the time and mood to care about a dog's preferences."
Jane swept across Pie's face with indifferent eyes, closed the door without changing her expression, and walked straight in front of Kim.
"It's not like you, no matter what big things happen outside, you still have the time and mood to stay at home, with your arms full."
"Jane, if you don't understand what's going on, don't make unreasonable comments here."
Kim was a little annoyed, after dealing with Air about various matters related to the company just now, Jane used this tone to mock herself again, making it clear that she wanted to embarrass Pie with herself. Kim naturally knew the purpose of Jane's visit this time, but she just didn't like her attitude.If you can't fully control your own life, what right do you have to interfere in other people's lives?
Especially, her life with Pie.
"Change your clothes, make yourself look like a human being, and come with me."
Jane still had no expression on her face, and she sat down on the sofa after speaking. Kim gave her a sideways look, but finally ignored her and dragged Pie upstairs.She knew that even though Pie didn't say a word, she could tell from the slight sweat on her palm that this little girl had something on her mind.Quietly closing the door, Kim held Pie in his arms, looked at the slight displeasure on her face, and kissed her forehead.
"Silly goose."
"Huh? You're calling me?" Pie came back to his senses, raised his big eyes and looked innocently at Kim, "You're the fool, heh, I'm not stupid, I'm smart."
"Haha." Kim was elated, "Okay baby, can you help me find some clothes? We're going out now."
"It's you who want to go out, not us." Unknowingly, Pie pouted again, "Jane didn't say to take me."
"But I want to take you there. This matter is not up to Jane." Kim smiled and scratched Pie's nose. "Besides, she and I are going to the police/station, not on a date."
"Police/department? Can Jane save Kidd?"
"I don't know. But judging by her appearance, there should be a way."
Kim rubbed Pie's face.
"So my little baby, would you like to find me a suit quickly?"
"I see, I'm so lazy to even look for clothes." Pie gently pushed Kim away, and opened the closet door, "Which outfit do you want to wear?"
"You see what you like, just be a little more formal."
"What about me? What should I wear?" Pie frowned, "I don't seem to have any formal clothes."
"It's okay, you look natural now, it's fine."
"Okay, then let's hurry up and don't keep Jane waiting."
"it is good."
The whole way to the police station, Jane was driving, and Kim sat in the passenger seat with her eyes closed and discussed with her how to deal with it. Pie didn't speak in the back seat, but just listened quietly, occasionally answering two questions from Kim, but only limited to simple words like "um" and "it's okay".The strange thing is that at this moment, why did the little emotions just now start to surge again? Pie doesn't understand, and doesn't know.
She just felt for a moment that Jane and Kim were such a good match.
She just felt for a moment that she was like an outsider.
Su Xiaopai, what are you thinking about? Kim has always loved you, don't think about it.
The weather is still overcast, and with the passage of time, it is getting darker and darker.Listening to Jane's tone, it seems that she is [-]% sure that she can get Kidd out, and Pie is also relieved.
But this heart always feels stuffy.
☆, concern
This Porsche 911 is wild, but under Jane's control, it seems even crazier.Although it is not the dead of night, the roar of the engine is getting more and more harsh on the busy street.Compared with Kim, Jane seems to like the feeling of the engine running at high speed.Perhaps this has an inseparable connection with her character. No matter where she goes, Jane is always on the go, making everyone's focus on her alone.If Kim is a majestic and deep lion king, then in comparison, Jane is more like a roaring jackal, which makes people feel completely unfavorable.Sitting in the back seat of the car, Pie kept frowning.She didn't like such loud voices the most, but Kim was always very considerate on weekdays and never made herself feel a little uncomfortable.So, riding in her car, Pie is always happy physically and mentally.But now as soon as Jane appeared, the atmosphere became more and more subtle.Especially in a closed space like a car, the surrounding air seems to be filled with an extremely embarrassing atmosphere.
"Jane, can you stop turning my car into a tractor." Kim suddenly opened his eyes, turned to stare at Jane, "That's not how my car is driven."
"Why, you're starting to get used to it?" Jane glanced at Kim's serious face from the corner of her eye, "I thought you'd already gotten used to it when you were in Australia."
A seemingly casual smile drifted across the corner of Jane's mouth, but this smile made Kim feel uncomfortable.
"Australia is Australia, and this is China. Now that you're back, you have to obey the rules." Kim glanced at Pie with a blank expression through the rearview mirror, "Besides, the past is not the present."
"Well, that's right, the past is definitely not the present." Jane followed Kim's gaze and glanced at Pie, with a weird smile in the corner of her eyes, "Kim, do you understand what I just told you? "
"I understand, I understand, but can you stop using those heretical tricks?" Kim frowned slightly, "I feel very undecent to do so."
"Kim, it seems that you still don't understand the rules here." Jane shook her head, "Extreme times, extreme means. If you don't want to see Kidd come out with bruises, just do as I say."
"Okay, just this time, not the next time."
With a beautiful turn and tail flick, Jane drove the car into the police station.The appearance of such a supercar here has really attracted the attention of many people.What's more, two young talents with strong aura and a girl who looks like a student got out of the car. This strange combination couldn't help but make everyone's eyes stay on them for three more seconds.Followed into the hall, Pie silently tugged at the corner of Kim's clothes, raised her eyes from time to time to look at her expressionless side face, and said nothing quietly.At the end of the corridor is a staircase, following up, Xiaobao appeared in front of him.After a simple eye contact and a few whispers, Kim shook Pie's hand, exhaled, and entered the conference room with Jane.Suddenly, Pie was enveloped by an unprecedented sense of loneliness.Although she
