Xu Jinman followed Tong Jia into the hotel. Compared with the trembling when he got off the car just now, Tong Jia was calmer now.
It's just that her eyes are red, her lips are tightly pressed, and her short silver-gray hair makes her face paler.
"If you're really uncomfortable, don't go."
"No." Tong Jia: "I have to see it with my own eyes before I give up. You don't know what seven years means to me."
Xu Jinman was silent and said no more.
She has never experienced seven years of love, but the pain of being betrayed after giving everything is suffocating.
Generally speaking, hotels do not provide guest information and room numbers. Tong Jia almost memorized Qiao Rui's mobile phone number and identity information, and did not get any accommodation.
It was Shen Shu who sent a message, saying that the hotel belonged to Cai's family, and she could find a solution with Cai Ying.
Cai Ying exploded directly in WeChat: [I'll call now! ! ! !Xu Jinman, you are doing a good job! ! ! !Fuck me to death! ! ! ! 】
Xu Jinman: "..."
Within 2 minutes, Cai Ying sent her the room number.
In addition, the names of Jory and another woman were entered on the system.
She didn't show Tong Jia.
The elevator goes straight up, and there are light champagne-colored wall coverings on both sides of the corridor. The sound insulation should be very good, and there is almost no sound.The entire aisle was as quiet as if there was no one there.
Xu Jinman stopped Tong Jia from directly knocking on the door.
Tong Jia was devastated, and understood what Xu Jinman meant. Can Qiao Rui open the door when she sees it?
Thinking of this, Tong Jia's tears finally couldn't help rolling down.
It was fine during the day, why did it come to this point?She never thought that one day, she would meet Jory in this way.
The two stood aside and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" It wasn't Jory's voice.
Xu Jinman didn't answer, there was an interval of more than ten seconds for the second time, and finally at the fourth time... the door opened from the inside.
"Who is sick——" Jory's voice stopped abruptly.
Jory was wearing a bathrobe, probably because of annoyance and urgency, the clothes were not well dressed, and a few hickey marks were clearly visible under the collarbone.
Under Tong Jia's sight, Qiao Rui wrapped up her clothes and opened her mouth slightly: "Jia..."
"What's wrong? Hurry up."
A woman's voice sounded from inside the room.
Tong Jia bit the skin of her mouth, and the smell of blood rolled in her mouth, swallowing the sadness just now.She pushed Jory away with a cold face, and strode inside.
"Jia Jia!"
The room was slightly open, and Xu Jinman was leaning against the corridor outside, so it was not convenient for her to go in at this time.
Suddenly, I heard the screams inside.
"What are you doing! Jory, are you just watching?! Ah—"
"Jia Jia!"
house.
The cup rolled around on the ground.
"You're crazy!" The woman covered her forehead with horror on her face.
Tong Jia threw something at her in a hurry, but Qiao Rui dodged and hit the woman behind her on the forehead.
"Tong Jia! Calm down!" Seeing this, Qiao Rui was afraid of causing trouble, so he stretched out his hand to grab Tong Jia's hand, and his shoulders suddenly tightened.
Qiao Rui turned her head and met a pair of exquisite and cold Danfeng eyes.
Qiao Rui frowned: "Boss Xu? Did you come together?"
Xu Jinman smiled: "Are you still concerned about whether we came together?"
Qiao Rui looked unnatural, and went to see Tong Jia: "Jiajia, let's talk later."
It was still that gentle voice, just like talking to her for the first time.
Tong Jia looked at Qiao Rui, her eyes were red, and she stopped the tears in her eyes. She slapped her: "Qiao Rui, for seven years, I have a dog with more conscience than you."
Shen Shu drove the car over.
Tong Jia sat in the back seat, with her forehead leaning against the car window, her expression was somber without a trace of light.
She wasn't crying, but she looked even sadder than when she was crying just now.
After sending Tong Jia back, he started to pack his things when he got home.
As if wanting to take in even Qiao Rui's shadow, he pulled up a box, and Tong Jia put both hands on the handle of the box: "I'm fine, you guys go."
"Stay with you for a while." Xu Jinman said, "I'll work hard for you anyway, let me rest."
Tong Jia returned to the bedroom without saying a word, as if she was still trying to find out something related to Qiao Rui.
Xu Jinman saw that she was slightly abnormal, and called out, "Tong Jia."
Tong Jia didn't stop.
Seeing this, Shen Shu went to hold Tong Jia's wrist: "You can say something casually, or cry out, it doesn't matter, we are here with you."
Xu Jinman looked at Shen Shu slightly, although she said that she would not comfort others, but such a simple sentence was better than everything for Tong Jia at this moment.
She didn't answer the call.
Tong Jia released Shen Shu from her palm, and sat on the bed: "When she danced "Birch Forest", I felt that she played the role of the girl who waited infatuatedly but didn't wait for her lover to come back. With tears in her eyes, Standing on tiptoe on the stage, it seemed to be waiting under the birch tree. At that time, I thought, this person may have experienced such a person who died without a disease, and I wanted to protect her and give her warmth... I want to be the lover she's been waiting for."
Tong Jia smiled and looked at the notebook in the trash can.
The lyrics of "Birch Forest" are written all over there.
Written while courting Jory.
She silently came to the birch forest
waiting there every day
She said he was just lost in the distance
He will definitely come to this birch forest
...
Young people disappear in the birch forest
The long road is coming to an end
That girl is already gray-haired
Tong Jia: "Seven years ago, I didn't expect that I would be the one waiting, or a fool who can't see people."
Tong Jia said that she wanted to be alone for a while.
Xu Jinman brought Tong Jia a bottle of water in, closed the door, and walked to the small balcony next to the living room.
Shen Shu stood by the railing of the balcony, the sky was gloomy and there were signs of rain.
Xu Jinman stood beside her: "What are you thinking?"
"I was wondering why the seven-year relationship is so vulnerable. Seven years is a long time."
Shen Shu rarely feels this way.
Xu Jinman heard her say: "Shouldn't you be afraid of losing after such a long time?"
Xu Jinman was startled, Shen Shu was abandoned since she was a child and adopted by the Shen family, especially the experience of her grandmother leaving, made Shen Shu feel uneasy.There was a slight pain in her heart.
Xu Jinman suddenly felt Tong Jia's feeling when he saw Qiao Rui.
"Some people are like this." Xu Jinman said in a low voice: "There are also people who feel confident after receiving love, or their feelings become numb and lose their freshness after a long time."
Shen Shu looked at Xu Jinman and asked, "Then what kind are you?"
"Me, the first type."
Xu Jinman's eyebrows twitched, and his two snow-white arms rested on the railing, forming an extremely sharp contrast with the black paint.Her tone reveals the casualness in her bones, but there is no perfunctory.
Xu Jinman is a little shorter than Shen Shu because of her slightly arched body.
The two gazed at each other for a second, Xu Jinman bent her lower lip and asked her, "Are you tired?"
"Fortunately."
"Go sit for a while, your feet are just recovering, don't stand for too long."
Upon hearing this, Shen Shu stared at her for two seconds, her voice was cold: "Mr. Xu, are you tired of worrying about so many people?"
Called Mr. Xu, it is obviously a joke.
Seeing that Shen Shu was in a much more relaxed mood, Xu Jinman smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, I don't know, I thought you were jealous."
Shen Shu paused.
Suddenly, Tong Jia broke down and shouted in the room: "Qiao Rui!! You bastard!!"
The two of Xu Jinman entered the door, and Tong Jia was holding an ipad in his hand. The screen was brightly lit, and he could vaguely see that it was a text message...
Tong Jia: "Why, why is it like this? Jory."
She closed her eyes and called Jory's name in disbelief.
The ipad fell to the ground.
Tong Jia bought this for Qiao Rui the year before last, and the account is also Qiao Rui's, with information synchronization and backup turned on, and later replaced with a new one, which became the bottom of the box.
But the above account has not been withdrawn. If Tong Jia hadn't left nostalgia for the past and turned on the ipad, she would never have known the real face of the woman she used to sleep with in this life.
Since more than two years ago, Qiao Rui has been chatting with different women, very explicit, even vulgar.It can be seen from the content that many of them are still her so-called 'students'.
Many of them mentioned multiplayer sports.
Most of these women who were with Qiao Rui didn't know that she had a girlfriend, but a small part did, and this small part basically still had wives...
Come out looking for the kind of excitement.
Dirty and disgusting.
Xu Jinman had seen the original body before, compared with Chen Bo and Han Fu, Qiao Rui was on par with dirty people like them.
But at least Chen Bo and the others were clearly dirty. From this point of view, Qiao Rui was even more disgusting.
Shen Shu knelt down to help her turn off the ipad, took out a tissue and wiped away the tears at the end of her eyes, Tong Jia threw herself into her arms and cried loudly.
Shen Shu patted Tong Jia's back lightly.
She only read a text message record.
Jory: [Meet us today, baby. 】
【Your girlfriend won't find out? 】
Jory: [I told her that I was in class, and she usually wouldn’t look for me in class]
【Tut tsk, come to my house then】
Shen Shu could imagine the extent of Tong Jia's collapse.
At night, Tong Jia drank a lot of wine and fell asleep after getting drunk.Xu Jinman and Shen Shu were not too worried about leaving her alone, so they planned to stay temporarily.
After the people settled down, the two sat in the living room and turned on the TV when they had nothing to do.
ABO movie channel, the movie just started.
spy romance drama.At the beginning, the protagonist is almost exposed and running in the alley.
During the thrilling gun battle, the protagonist broke into a dilapidated room next to the alley and disturbed the Omega woman who was changing clothes inside.
...
Xu Jinman was bored watching the movie, halfway through the movie.
There is a gap between the faint TV sound, and shallow breathing can be heard.
Turning his head, he found that Shen Shu was leaning on the sofa and fell asleep.
Shen Shu's head slightly turned towards her, the living room did not turn on the lights, only the brightness of the TV, but it was enough to fully see Shen Shu's facial features.
Every inch of the palm-sized face is like God's meticulous work.
She wore a black knitted sweater with very soft wool, her hair was tied behind her tail, and her small face looked even smaller and more delicate.
Because leaning on the sofa, the neck line is even smoother, Xu Jinman stared at the milky white section, and behind it was the private place of Omega.
I usually don't think about it, but it's nothing.
But it may be because of the late night, her nerves are more sensitive today, even her sense of smell.
Especially the sweet vanilla smell on Shen Shu's body, which sneaked into her breath every time.
Fragrant soft, sweet and greasy.
Once the attention is focused here, Xu Jinman has the illusion that he will drown at any moment.
It is obviously a vanilla-flavored pheromone, but it is more intoxicating than wine.
She belatedly discovered that Shen Shu's pheromone seemed to be stronger today than in the past.Is Shen Shu's fever coming soon?It seems that the day is not yet...
Unexpectedly, it was so clear, the glands in the back of the neck were beating faintly amidst the spread of Omega pheromones.
Her breathing became labored.
At the beginning of the thought, the body will react unconsciously. Xu Jinman intertwined her fingertips, and she stretched out her hand——
The next second, Xu Jinman's hand was near the edge of Shen Shu's mouth, and he stopped.
She opened half of her eyes to Shen Shu, and Shen Shu's pupils projected the light of the TV, feeling tired and dazed.
Compared with the usual coldness during the day, such a Shen Shu is rare.
"Help you smooth out your hair." Xu Jinman sat upright calmly, retracting his hands.
Shen Shu's vision returned to clarity: "Then have you stroked it?"
Xu Jinman was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Okay."
Shen Shu's gaze paused on Xu Jinman's face, and she took a sip of the water on the coffee table: "Really? Why don't I feel it."
There was almost no room for relaxation, Xu Jinman's heart was beating: "How can you feel it when you are asleep."
Shen Shu: "I didn't fall asleep."
Xu Jinman: "..."
It started to rain outside the window after ten o'clock in the evening, and the sound on the TV was not loud at all, but the sound of the rain suddenly brushed away, sweeping away, washing away all unnecessary sounds.
Shen Shu's calm voice sounded: "What did you want to do just now?"
Late at night, her mind was still in chaos, she didn't think much, she just asked this question following the answer she wanted to know.
Xu Jinman's fingertips curled up, and under Shen Shu's straight gaze, she felt a little nervous.
Did she say she wanted to touch her lips just now?
Said she had desire|desire because of her pheromone?
Obviously, no.
Ok.
Staring at Shen Shu's unexpectedly persistent gaze, Xu Jinman felt guilty.
"I want to touch your face." Xu Jinman still half-spoken the truth, realizing that touching is not a good word, thinking about changing it to a verb, but looking at Shen Shu's expression, she didn't do it again.
It was like a small adventure game, trying to move forward, lest taking one more step would result in something different from what she had imagined.
She subconsciously felt that Shen Shu didn't seem to be angry.
"Oh." Shen Shu looked away from her eyes: "I'll go see Tong Jia."
Shen Shu opened the door of Tong Jia's room. Under the dim lamp, she was sleeping soundly, but her face was full of tears, and the pillow was wet. She probably woke up and cried again.
I don't know how long a person cried in the house.
Two people come out.
The time is late at night and early in the morning.
With Tong Jia like this, they still plan to stay here for one night.
Two bedrooms and one living room, except for the master bedroom, the living room and the guest bedroom are relatively small, and there are various sundries piled up in the guest bedroom, so I can only make do with the sofa.
Find a blanket.
Xu Jinman sat on the edge of the sofa and said, "You can sleep down."
The sofa length is limited, just enough for one person to sleep and one person to sit down.
Shen Shu: "You don't need to take care of me like this every time, you sleep today."
There was no negotiating tone.
Xu Jinman still said: "I don't sleep honestly, this sofa is not enough for me to sleep."
She put the blanket on the side, leaned closer to Shen Shu, and said softly: "Well, next time this happens, I will give priority, okay?"
Shen Shu looked at her for a while, then suddenly asked: "Xu Jinman, are you so kind to everyone?"
"No." Xu Jinman didn't think about it at all, it was natural.
The TV had been turned off and a porch light was turned on, which was very dim and suitable for sleeping.
Shen Shu was lying on the sofa, her feet were half an arm's distance away from Xu Jinman's.
In the room, only the sound of rain showers, momentarily wild and momentarily silent, can be heard outside the glass window.
Xu Jinman leaned back on the sofa to sleep, and after a while, she suddenly heard Shen Shu say: "If you really want to."
"……Um?"
Shen Shu: "I can let you... touch it."
Xu Jinman couldn't think for a while: "Touch, where?"
Shen Shu was silent: "Where did you want to touch?"
Probably because such words are not often said, and the voice is very soft.
Under the background sound of rain falling, Xu Jinman recalled the throbbing feeling of sliding from the tip of the flower into the stamen in spring.
Xu Jinman slowed down her heartbeat, she knew that any misinterpretation of these few words would not be innocent.
"I..." Xu Jinman paused halfway.
Shen Shu has said it all, if she refuses again, it will be very embarrassing.
Shen Shu probably thought she had some special hobbies, so she liked to come here secretly, not serious.
Just poke it a little bit, and get this thing over quickly.
After all, it was embarrassing to be caught by Shen Shu just now.
"Then..."
'boom--'
The door of Tong Jia's room opened suddenly, as if thunder struck Xu Jinman's words in his throat.
Xu Jinman stood up and watched Tong Jia come out unsteadily.
Tong Jia squinted her eyes and saw the person on the other side of the sofa, pointing at the person and yelling: "Scum! Beast! Scum!"
Xu Jinman: "..." Who are you connoting? !
After finally getting Tong Jia to lie on the bed again, the two of them returned to the sofa. The outside window was slammed by the rain, but this shower will soon weaken.
Xu Jinman and Shen Shu recovered to sit down and take care of the drunk people. They were actually quite tired.
And no one mentioned the episode just now.
Soon, one rain shower outside has passed, waiting for the next one to come or stop.
Tong Jia went back to her mother's house for two days.
What happened to Jory hit her so hard that she didn't even want to mention the man's name.
According to Xu Jinman's opinion, it's too cheap to just calculate it like this.
After all, it was a seven-year relationship. Tong Jia had put in so much, devoted herself to it for so many years, and even had a plan to propose marriage.It's really not as good as feeding a dog with a passion.
It's like stepping on the mud with one foot, Tong Jia will be in shock for the rest of her life.
If it was her, she would never give up until she made Qiao Rui afraid of women.
But she is not Tong Jia.
There was no way to say more, on the day Tong Jia went home to live, Xu Jinman only sent her a WeChat message: [I have something to talk about. 】
No matter how broken Tong Jia was, she only took two days off, and arranged everything properly.
In addition, Shen Shu has not yet joined the group, so the studio is not much different from the past.
On the contrary, Xu Jinman was busy all day because he had half an extra piece of land, so he had no time at all. He worked overtime at night and didn't get home until after nine o'clock.
Still at the door, the slight sound of TV advertisements had already reached my ears.
Xu Jinman opened the door, there was a slight smell of shower gel in the air, the light in the living room was on, the TV was on, and Shen Shu was sitting on the sofa.
Xu Jinman went to take a shower first, and when she came out, there was a plate of cubed mangoes on the table.
She ate dinner late, but she was not actually hungry, so she poked one with a toothpick and put it in her mouth.
Sweet.
She leaned against the sofa.
The sofa beside her was slightly sunken, and Shen Shu turned to look at Xu Jinman.
Xu Jinman was wearing the black pajamas she bought. Because of the movement of leaning back, the satin jacket was a little loose. With a V-shaped neckline, one could see the depth and softness inside at a glance.
Shen Shu's pupils dimmed, and her palm suddenly felt hot. It seemed that the night she returned to Xu's house, Xu Jinman in her sleep held her hand, and it covered the hot snow mountain...
Consciousness was withdrawn by Xu Jinman's question.
Xu Jinman asked, "What does Cai Ying want me for?"
When they were downstairs, Cai Ying made a voice call in the group.
I wanted to call her by name, but when she got a call, it was cut off.
When Xu Jinman raised his eyes, Shen Shu had already withdrawn his gaze: "Your birthday is March 21, right?"
Xu Jinman paused when he bit the mango: "Well, what's the matter?"
In fact, it was the original body's birthday.
"Cai Ying asked."
"What do you ask this for?"
Shen Shu shook her head: "I didn't finish talking just now, I will send a message later."
After a while, Cai Ying hit the two of them in the WeChat group.
Cai Ying: [@沉朱@徐琴曼, you guys have a good birthday! 】
Cai Ying: [One is 1121, the other is 0321. 】
Cai Ying: [One Scorpio, one Aries, perfect match! 】
Xu Jinman and Shen Shu didn't know much about constellations, and of course they couldn't understand them.
Xu Jinman looked at the two birthdays side by side, wondering if there were too many outrageous things in Xu's house, and suddenly she even felt that it was not a coincidence.
Xu Jinman: [Why are you researching this? 】
Cai Ying: 【Write a novel. 】
Xu Jinman: [Oh. 】
Cai Ying: [You are so contemptuous of people? 】
Cai Ying: [@沉书朱周, don't you care? 】
Xu Jinman: [... sue everything, your kindergarten? 】
Cai Ying: [I will sue, slightly]
Xu Jinman put down his phone and looked at Shen Shu: "Is this kid really your girlfriend?"
After Cai Ying finished talking, Aite Shen Shu was in the group again.
[@沉朱I have prepared a unique birthday present for you this year, and you can start looking forward to it now. 】
Shen Shu; [There are still a few months...]
Cai Ying: [So let you start looking forward to it now, anyway, it will definitely surpass Xu Jinman. 】
Xu Jinman: "..."
Xu Jinman didn't even bother to talk about it.
Suddenly remembered something, turned his head and asked: "The wedding gift from my brother hasn't been opened yet, right?"
Shen Shu said no, the box had been kept in the cabinet, Xu Jinman almost forgot if she didn't mention it.
Take things to the living room.
The outer packaging is dark red, tied into a bow with a lace ribbon, and the four edges are decorated with gold edges, simple and elegant, precious and luxurious.
Open the outer packaging, inside is a black diamond box.
The buckle was also inlaid with diamonds. After opening it, Xu Jinman looked at the contents inside and asked, "What is this?" The character had seen it somewhere.
It's like a theater, with a woman in a red dress at the front, and a supporting cast behind her, some with distorted looks, a knight, and one holding a book, like a poet...
"Notre Dame de Paris." Shen Shu stared at the people in the theater, her eyes seemed to be able to see far away: "It's the first time I acted as the leading role in a drama club."
The people inside are all made of clay, and it is difficult for non-professional handicrafts to achieve such exquisiteness.
Xu Jinman said: "It seems that my brother's colleague is really your alumni."
Shen Shu looked at the heroine in the theater, as if she had returned to that time.
In Notre Dame de Paris.
The heroine Esmeralda was stolen from her home by gypsies and grew up among wandering entertainers. Because of her beauty, she met a wandering poet, a frivolous and ruthless knight, an ugly Quasimodo, an evil archdeacon...
She fell in love with the knight who was the hero who saved the beauty, but she was dazzled by love, and her trust was not human.
She is very kind, and in order to save the poet, she agreed to get married and forgave Quasimodo who kidnapped her, but unfortunately she still failed to escape the fate of being hanged in the end.
Shen Shu felt at that time that her life was like Esmeralda, and most of the people around the heroine were the same as those around her.
Perhaps one day, like the heroine, she will die with nothing but a necklace of rosary-tree fruits, a small silk sachet inlaid with green glass but empty.
"Do you know why I like acting so much?"
"why?"
Xu Jinman looked at it seriously.
Shen Shu smiled sideways: "Because I can act in a different life."
Experience is not just ups and downs.
Her tone was not deep, and her smile was real, but Xu Jinman's heart was slightly sour.
Shen Shu didn't stay too long, she liked this gift very much, thought about it, and said, "Can you give this to me?"
"Of course, it was originally yours." Xu Jinman nodded.
The two of them were chatting one after another outside, after ten o'clock.
The mangoes on the table were still not finished, Shen Shu also ate less, there was only half a plate left.
Mangoes cannot be stored in the refrigerator if they are cut. Shen Shu picked up the fruit plate and was about to throw it away for cleaning, when she suddenly remembered that there was a photo of the little crescent moon sent by Lin Weixin in her phone.
She turned around, but Xu Jinman just stood up holding the gift box.
The box hit upwards from below, Xu Jinman subconsciously protected the box, and most of the force of the impact went to her side.Even the mango plate fell on Xu Jinman's heart.
With a 'snap', the plate fell onto the box.
The shiny mango fruit is like a rich granary piled up on the silk V-neck.Shen Shu's eyes trembled, her breathing became tighter, and even her body seemed to have a reaction of heating up.
And Xu Jinman only felt a chill in his heart, feeling that the mango juice was going down smoothly.
It's just that her eyes are red, her lips are tightly pressed, and her short silver-gray hair makes her face paler.
"If you're really uncomfortable, don't go."
"No." Tong Jia: "I have to see it with my own eyes before I give up. You don't know what seven years means to me."
Xu Jinman was silent and said no more.
She has never experienced seven years of love, but the pain of being betrayed after giving everything is suffocating.
Generally speaking, hotels do not provide guest information and room numbers. Tong Jia almost memorized Qiao Rui's mobile phone number and identity information, and did not get any accommodation.
It was Shen Shu who sent a message, saying that the hotel belonged to Cai's family, and she could find a solution with Cai Ying.
Cai Ying exploded directly in WeChat: [I'll call now! ! ! !Xu Jinman, you are doing a good job! ! ! !Fuck me to death! ! ! ! 】
Xu Jinman: "..."
Within 2 minutes, Cai Ying sent her the room number.
In addition, the names of Jory and another woman were entered on the system.
She didn't show Tong Jia.
The elevator goes straight up, and there are light champagne-colored wall coverings on both sides of the corridor. The sound insulation should be very good, and there is almost no sound.The entire aisle was as quiet as if there was no one there.
Xu Jinman stopped Tong Jia from directly knocking on the door.
Tong Jia was devastated, and understood what Xu Jinman meant. Can Qiao Rui open the door when she sees it?

The cup rolled around on the ground.
"You're crazy!" The woman covered her forehead with horror on her face.
Tong Jia threw something at her in a hurry, but Qiao Rui dodged and hit the woman behind her on the forehead.
"Tong Jia! Calm down!" Seeing this, Qiao Rui was afraid of causing trouble, so he stretched out his hand to grab Tong Jia's hand, and his shoulders suddenly tightened.
Qiao Rui turned her head and met a pair of exquisite and cold Danfeng eyes.
Qiao Rui frowned: "Boss Xu? Did you come together?"
Xu Jinman smiled: "Are you still concerned about whether we came together?"
Qiao Rui looked unnatural, and went to see Tong Jia: "Jiajia, let's talk later."
It was still that gentle voice, just like talking to her for the first time.
Tong Jia looked at Qiao Rui, her eyes were red, and she stopped the tears in her eyes. She slapped her: "Qiao Rui, for seven years, I have a dog with more conscience than you."
Shen Shu drove the car over.
Tong Jia sat in the back seat, with her forehead leaning against the car window, her expression was somber without a trace of light.
She wasn't crying, but she looked even sadder than when she was crying just now.
After sending Tong Jia back, he started to pack his things when he got home.
As if wanting to take in even Qiao Rui's shadow, he pulled up a box, and Tong Jia put both hands on the handle of the box: "I'm fine, you guys go."

Tong Jia released Shen Shu from her palm, and sat on the bed: "When she danced "Birch Forest", I felt that she played the role of the girl who waited infatuatedly but didn't wait for her lover to come back. With tears in her eyes, Standing on tiptoe on the stage, it seemed to be waiting under the birch tree. At that time, I thought, this person may have experienced such a person who died without a disease, and I wanted to protect her and give her warmth... I want to be the lover she's been waiting for."
Tong Jia smiled and looked at the notebook in the trash can.

"Some people are like this." Xu Jinman said in a low voice: "There are also people who feel confident after receiving love, or their feelings become numb and lose their freshness after a long time."
Shen Shu looked at Xu Jinman and asked, "Then what kind are you?"
"Me, the first type."
Xu Jinman's eyebrows twitched, and his two snow-white arms rested on the railing, forming an extremely sharp contrast with the black paint.Her tone reveals the casualness in her bones, but there is no perfunctory.
Xu Jinman is a little shorter than Shen Shu because of her slightly arched body.
The two gazed at each other for a second, Xu Jinman bent her lower lip and asked her, "Are you tired?"
"Fortunately."
"Go sit for a while, your feet are just recovering, don't stand for too long."
Upon hearing this, Shen Shu stared at her for two seconds, her voice was cold: "Mr. Xu, are you tired of worrying about so many people?"
Called Mr. Xu, it is obviously a joke.
Seeing that Shen Shu was in a much more relaxed mood, Xu Jinman smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, I don't know, I thought you were jealous."
Shen Shu paused.
Suddenly, Tong Jia broke down and shouted in the room: "Qiao Rui!! You bastard!!"
The two of Xu Jinman entered the door, and Tong Jia was holding an ipad in his hand. The screen was brightly lit, and he could vaguely see that it was a text message...
Tong Jia: "Why, why is it like this? Jory."
She closed her eyes and called Jory's name in disbelief.
The ipad fell to the ground.
Tong Jia bought this for Qiao Rui the year before last, and the account is also Qiao Rui's, with information synchronization and backup turned on, and later replaced with a new one, which became the bottom of the box.
But the above account has not been withdrawn. If Tong Jia hadn't left nostalgia for the past and turned on the ipad, she would never have known the real face of the woman she used to sleep with in this life.
Since more than two years ago, Qiao Rui has been chatting with different women, very explicit, even vulgar.It can be seen from the content that many of them are still her so-called 'students'.
Many of them mentioned multiplayer sports.
Most of these women who were with Qiao Rui didn't know that she had a girlfriend, but a small part did, and this small part basically still had wives...
Come out looking for the kind of excitement.
Dirty and disgusting.
Xu Jinman had seen the original body before, compared with Chen Bo and Han Fu, Qiao Rui was on par with dirty people like them.
But at least Chen Bo and the others were clearly dirty. From this point of view, Qiao Rui was even more disgusting.
Shen Shu knelt down to help her turn off the ipad, took out a tissue and wiped away the tears at the end of her eyes, Tong Jia threw herself into her arms and cried loudly.
Shen Shu patted Tong Jia's back lightly.
She only read a text message record.
Jory: [Meet us today, baby. 】
【Your girlfriend won't find out? 】
Jory: [I told her that I was in class, and she usually wouldn’t look for me in class]
【Tut tsk, come to my house then】
Shen Shu could imagine the extent of Tong Jia's collapse.
At night, Tong Jia drank a lot of wine and fell asleep after getting drunk.Xu Jinman and Shen Shu were not too worried about leaving her alone, so they planned to stay temporarily.
After the people settled down, the two sat in the living room and turned on the TV when they had nothing to do.
ABO movie channel, the movie just started.
spy romance drama.At the beginning, the protagonist is almost exposed and running in the alley.
During the thrilling gun battle, the protagonist broke into a dilapidated room next to the alley and disturbed the Omega woman who was changing clothes inside.
...
Xu Jinman was bored watching the movie, halfway through the movie.
There is a gap between the faint TV sound, and shallow breathing can be heard.
Turning his head, he found that Shen Shu was leaning on the sofa and fell asleep.
Shen Shu's head slightly turned towards her, the living room did not turn on the lights, only the brightness of the TV, but it was enough to fully see Shen Shu's facial features.
Every inch of the palm-sized face is like God's meticulous work.
She wore a black knitted sweater with very soft wool, her hair was tied behind her tail, and her small face looked even smaller and more delicate.
Because leaning on the sofa, the neck line is even smoother, Xu Jinman stared at the milky white section, and behind it was the private place of Omega.
I usually don't think about it, but it's nothing.
But it may be because of the late night, her nerves are more sensitive today, even her sense of smell.
Especially the sweet vanilla smell on Shen Shu's body, which sneaked into her breath every time.
Fragrant soft, sweet and greasy.
Once the attention is focused here, Xu Jinman has the illusion that he will drown at any moment.
It is obviously a vanilla-flavored pheromone, but it is more intoxicating than wine.
She belatedly discovered that Shen Shu's pheromone seemed to be stronger today than in the past.Is Shen Shu's fever coming soon?It seems that the day is not yet...
Unexpectedly, it was so clear, the glands in the back of the neck were beating faintly amidst the spread of Omega pheromones.
Her breathing became labored.
At the beginning of the thought, the body will react unconsciously. Xu Jinman intertwined her fingertips, and she stretched out her hand——
The next second, Xu Jinman's hand was near the edge of Shen Shu's mouth, and he stopped.
She opened half of her eyes to Shen Shu, and Shen Shu's pupils projected the light of the TV, feeling tired and dazed.
Compared with the usual coldness during the day, such a Shen Shu is rare.
"Help you smooth out your hair." Xu Jinman sat upright calmly, retracting his hands.
Shen Shu's vision returned to clarity: "Then have you stroked it?"
Xu Jinman was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Okay."
Shen Shu's gaze paused on Xu Jinman's face, and she took a sip of the water on the coffee table: "Really? Why don't I feel it."
There was almost no room for relaxation, Xu Jinman's heart was beating: "How can you feel it when you are asleep."
Shen Shu: "I didn't fall asleep."
Xu Jinman: "..."
It started to rain outside the window after ten o'clock in the evening, and the sound on the TV was not loud at all, but the sound of the rain suddenly brushed away, sweeping away, washing away all unnecessary sounds.
Shen Shu's calm voice sounded: "What did you want to do just now?"
Late at night, her mind was still in chaos, she didn't think much, she just asked this question following the answer she wanted to know.
Xu Jinman's fingertips curled up, and under Shen Shu's straight gaze, she felt a little nervous.
Did she say she wanted to touch her lips just now?
Said she had desire|desire because of her pheromone?
Obviously, no.
Ok.
Staring at Shen Shu's unexpectedly persistent gaze, Xu Jinman felt guilty.
"I want to touch your face." Xu Jinman still half-spoken the truth, realizing that touching is not a good word, thinking about changing it to a verb, but looking at Shen Shu's expression, she didn't do it again.
It was like a small adventure game, trying to move forward, lest taking one more step would result in something different from what she had imagined.
She subconsciously felt that Shen Shu didn't seem to be angry.
"Oh." Shen Shu looked away from her eyes: "I'll go see Tong Jia."
Shen Shu opened the door of Tong Jia's room. Under the dim lamp, she was sleeping soundly, but her face was full of tears, and the pillow was wet. She probably woke up and cried again.
I don't know how long a person cried in the house.
Two people come out.
The time is late at night and early in the morning.
With Tong Jia like this, they still plan to stay here for one night.
Two bedrooms and one living room, except for the master bedroom, the living room and the guest bedroom are relatively small, and there are various sundries piled up in the guest bedroom, so I can only make do with the sofa.
Find a blanket.
Xu Jinman sat on the edge of the sofa and said, "You can sleep down."
The sofa length is limited, just enough for one person to sleep and one person to sit down.
Shen Shu: "You don't need to take care of me like this every time, you sleep today."
There was no negotiating tone.
Xu Jinman still said: "I don't sleep honestly, this sofa is not enough for me to sleep."
She put the blanket on the side, leaned closer to Shen Shu, and said softly: "Well, next time this happens, I will give priority, okay?"
Shen Shu looked at her for a while, then suddenly asked: "Xu Jinman, are you so kind to everyone?"
"No." Xu Jinman didn't think about it at all, it was natural.
The TV had been turned off and a porch light was turned on, which was very dim and suitable for sleeping.
Shen Shu was lying on the sofa, her feet were half an arm's distance away from Xu Jinman's.
In the room, only the sound of rain showers, momentarily wild and momentarily silent, can be heard outside the glass window.
Xu Jinman leaned back on the sofa to sleep, and after a while, she suddenly heard Shen Shu say: "If you really want to."
"……Um?"
Shen Shu: "I can let you... touch it."
Xu Jinman couldn't think for a while: "Touch, where?"
Shen Shu was silent: "Where did you want to touch?"
Probably because such words are not often said, and the voice is very soft.
Under the background sound of rain falling, Xu Jinman recalled the throbbing feeling of sliding from the tip of the flower into the stamen in spring.
Xu Jinman slowed down her heartbeat, she knew that any misinterpretation of these few words would not be innocent.
"I..." Xu Jinman paused halfway.
Shen Shu has said it all, if she refuses again, it will be very embarrassing.
Shen Shu probably thought she had some special hobbies, so she liked to come here secretly, not serious.
Just poke it a little bit, and get this thing over quickly.
After all, it was embarrassing to be caught by Shen Shu just now.
"Then..."
'boom--'
The door of Tong Jia's room opened suddenly, as if thunder struck Xu Jinman's words in his throat.
Xu Jinman stood up and watched Tong Jia come out unsteadily.
Tong Jia squinted her eyes and saw the person on the other side of the sofa, pointing at the person and yelling: "Scum! Beast! Scum!"
Xu Jinman: "..." Who are you connoting? !
After finally getting Tong Jia to lie on the bed again, the two of them returned to the sofa. The outside window was slammed by the rain, but this shower will soon weaken.
Xu Jinman and Shen Shu recovered to sit down and take care of the drunk people. They were actually quite tired.
And no one mentioned the episode just now.
Soon, one rain shower outside has passed, waiting for the next one to come or stop.
Tong Jia went back to her mother's house for two days.
What happened to Jory hit her so hard that she didn't even want to mention the man's name.
According to Xu Jinman's opinion, it's too cheap to just calculate it like this.
After all, it was a seven-year relationship. Tong Jia had put in so much, devoted herself to it for so many years, and even had a plan to propose marriage.It's really not as good as feeding a dog with a passion.
It's like stepping on the mud with one foot, Tong Jia will be in shock for the rest of her life.
If it was her, she would never give up until she made Qiao Rui afraid of women.
But she is not Tong Jia.
There was no way to say more, on the day Tong Jia went home to live, Xu Jinman only sent her a WeChat message: [I have something to talk about. 】
No matter how broken Tong Jia was, she only took two days off, and arranged everything properly.
In addition, Shen Shu has not yet joined the group, so the studio is not much different from the past.
On the contrary, Xu Jinman was busy all day because he had half an extra piece of land, so he had no time at all. He worked overtime at night and didn't get home until after nine o'clock.
Still at the door, the slight sound of TV advertisements had already reached my ears.
Xu Jinman opened the door, there was a slight smell of shower gel in the air, the light in the living room was on, the TV was on, and Shen Shu was sitting on the sofa.
Xu Jinman went to take a shower first, and when she came out, there was a plate of cubed mangoes on the table.
She ate dinner late, but she was not actually hungry, so she poked one with a toothpick and put it in her mouth.
Sweet.
She leaned against the sofa.
The sofa beside her was slightly sunken, and Shen Shu turned to look at Xu Jinman.
Xu Jinman was wearing the black pajamas she bought. Because of the movement of leaning back, the satin jacket was a little loose. With a V-shaped neckline, one could see the depth and softness inside at a glance.
Shen Shu's pupils dimmed, and her palm suddenly felt hot. It seemed that the night she returned to Xu's house, Xu Jinman in her sleep held her hand, and it covered the hot snow mountain...
Consciousness was withdrawn by Xu Jinman's question.
Xu Jinman asked, "What does Cai Ying want me for?"
When they were downstairs, Cai Ying made a voice call in the group.
I wanted to call her by name, but when she got a call, it was cut off.
When Xu Jinman raised his eyes, Shen Shu had already withdrawn his gaze: "Your birthday is March 21, right?"
Xu Jinman paused when he bit the mango: "Well, what's the matter?"
In fact, it was the original body's birthday.
"Cai Ying asked."
"What do you ask this for?"
Shen Shu shook her head: "I didn't finish talking just now, I will send a message later."
After a while, Cai Ying hit the two of them in the WeChat group.
Cai Ying: [@沉朱@徐琴曼, you guys have a good birthday! 】
Cai Ying: [One is 1121, the other is 0321. 】
Cai Ying: [One Scorpio, one Aries, perfect match! 】
Xu Jinman and Shen Shu didn't know much about constellations, and of course they couldn't understand them.
Xu Jinman looked at the two birthdays side by side, wondering if there were too many outrageous things in Xu's house, and suddenly she even felt that it was not a coincidence.
Xu Jinman: [Why are you researching this? 】
Cai Ying: 【Write a novel. 】
Xu Jinman: [Oh. 】
Cai Ying: [You are so contemptuous of people? 】
Cai Ying: [@沉书朱周, don't you care? 】
Xu Jinman: [... sue everything, your kindergarten? 】
Cai Ying: [I will sue, slightly]
Xu Jinman put down his phone and looked at Shen Shu: "Is this kid really your girlfriend?"
After Cai Ying finished talking, Aite Shen Shu was in the group again.
[@沉朱I have prepared a unique birthday present for you this year, and you can start looking forward to it now. 】
Shen Shu; [There are still a few months...]
Cai Ying: [So let you start looking forward to it now, anyway, it will definitely surpass Xu Jinman. 】
Xu Jinman: "..."
Xu Jinman didn't even bother to talk about it.
Suddenly remembered something, turned his head and asked: "The wedding gift from my brother hasn't been opened yet, right?"
Shen Shu said no, the box had been kept in the cabinet, Xu Jinman almost forgot if she didn't mention it.
Take things to the living room.
The outer packaging is dark red, tied into a bow with a lace ribbon, and the four edges are decorated with gold edges, simple and elegant, precious and luxurious.
Open the outer packaging, inside is a black diamond box.
The buckle was also inlaid with diamonds. After opening it, Xu Jinman looked at the contents inside and asked, "What is this?" The character had seen it somewhere.
It's like a theater, with a woman in a red dress at the front, and a supporting cast behind her, some with distorted looks, a knight, and one holding a book, like a poet...
"Notre Dame de Paris." Shen Shu stared at the people in the theater, her eyes seemed to be able to see far away: "It's the first time I acted as the leading role in a drama club."
The people inside are all made of clay, and it is difficult for non-professional handicrafts to achieve such exquisiteness.
Xu Jinman said: "It seems that my brother's colleague is really your alumni."
Shen Shu looked at the heroine in the theater, as if she had returned to that time.
In Notre Dame de Paris.
The heroine Esmeralda was stolen from her home by gypsies and grew up among wandering entertainers. Because of her beauty, she met a wandering poet, a frivolous and ruthless knight, an ugly Quasimodo, an evil archdeacon...
She fell in love with the knight who was the hero who saved the beauty, but she was dazzled by love, and her trust was not human.
She is very kind, and in order to save the poet, she agreed to get married and forgave Quasimodo who kidnapped her, but unfortunately she still failed to escape the fate of being hanged in the end.
Shen Shu felt at that time that her life was like Esmeralda, and most of the people around the heroine were the same as those around her.
Perhaps one day, like the heroine, she will die with nothing but a necklace of rosary-tree fruits, a small silk sachet inlaid with green glass but empty.
"Do you know why I like acting so much?"
"why?"
Xu Jinman looked at it seriously.
Shen Shu smiled sideways: "Because I can act in a different life."
Experience is not just ups and downs.
Her tone was not deep, and her smile was real, but Xu Jinman's heart was slightly sour.
Shen Shu didn't stay too long, she liked this gift very much, thought about it, and said, "Can you give this to me?"
"Of course, it was originally yours." Xu Jinman nodded.
The two of them were chatting one after another outside, after ten o'clock.
The mangoes on the table were still not finished, Shen Shu also ate less, there was only half a plate left.
Mangoes cannot be stored in the refrigerator if they are cut. Shen Shu picked up the fruit plate and was about to throw it away for cleaning, when she suddenly remembered that there was a photo of the little crescent moon sent by Lin Weixin in her phone.
She turned around, but Xu Jinman just stood up holding the gift box.
The box hit upwards from below, Xu Jinman subconsciously protected the box, and most of the force of the impact went to her side.Even the mango plate fell on Xu Jinman's heart.
With a 'snap', the plate fell onto the box.
The shiny mango fruit is like a rich granary piled up on the silk V-neck.Shen Shu's eyes trembled, her breathing became tighter, and even her body seemed to have a reaction of heating up.
And Xu Jinman only felt a chill in his heart, feeling that the mango juice was going down smoothly.
