Chapter 18 Love, what an abrasive thing!

Li Zechen was secretly a little amused when he saw her.

It's only when she mentions what she likes that she gets so emotionally upswinging.

Catching a glimpse of the corner of the incubator, Li Zechen suddenly asked, "What to drink?"

"Huh?"

This question was too jumpy, and Jiang Lai was obviously stunned for a moment.

Li Zechen's eyes swept over the bag placed on the empty seat, stretched out his hand to the mineral water, and turned to the incubator.

Inside is coffee and hot chocolate bought by Millet.

I tried the temperature, and the residual temperature was still there.

"Is hot chocolate OK?

"Yes, yes!"

In fact, what she wanted to say was that he didn't eat today, isn't it more suitable to drink hot chocolate?

But when the words came to his lips, he still didn't say them.

I always felt that it was strange that this came out of her mouth.

All right!

In fact, it is her lack of courage.

Li Zechen took out the cup of coffee, only took a sip, and then put it down in his hand and stopped drinking it.

It's probably been left for a long time, and the taste is not very good.

It was already the beginning of the lights outside the window, and Jiang Lai looked at the time.

Jiang Jiang should have gone back.

Li Zechen suddenly coughed lightly and said, "Turn right at the intersection ahead!"

Jiang Lai looked sideways and realized that he was talking to the driver Lao Qian!

He lowered his head and took a sip of hot chocolate without speaking.

Xiaomi was excited, the boss actually knew which intersection to turn on, and it seemed that he had already been to the screenwriter's house.

The efficiency of the boss is high!

After pointing the way, Li Zechen answered a phone call.

Say hello in English as soon as you open your mouth.

The only thing in the carriage was his low, cold voice.

Jiang Lai took out his mobile phone to swipe Weibo, but his ears received the signal next to him.

Jiang Lai's English level can only understand the words he is familiar with.

But I was still intrigued.

Because, good!

It's like listening to English radio, an authentic London accent.

Jiang Lai's hand movements stopped when she was unconscious.

"Jiang Lai?"

"Huh?"

I don't know when, Li Zechen has already ended the call.

"It's here!"

Jiang Lai was stunned for a moment, looked out the window, and had already arrived at the door of the community.

"Then I'll go first, thank you for sending me back today!"

Li Zechen nodded his head: "Don't be so polite, it should be!"

Jiang Lai could only smile, what the hell should it be?

Taking her things, she pushed under the car door.

Just as she was about to close the door, Li Zechen called her.

Looking up, the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "For the next period of time, I will be in Beijing!"

Jiang Lai didn't understand!

So?

Does it have anything to do with her?

"Didn't you say you were going to invite me to dinner?

Jiang Lai instantly remembered this thing that he talked about casually, but he never realized.

"Okay, I'll tell you when I've found a place!"

When he entered the house, Jiang Jiang couldn't wait to catch up and take something from Jiang Lai's hand.

"Sister, why did you come back?"

Jiang Lai said "um", "The road is a little blocked." ”

"You came back by bus?"

"Hmm. ”

Jiang Jiang opened the box: "Sister, where is the egg tart?"

Jiang Lai blinked, "I'm really a little hungry on the road, so I'll eat!"

"Ahh

She's waiting.

Jiang Lai felt ashamed, so he naturally wanted to comfort him: "What I did today is not too successful, and in a few days, I will learn to do it for you at home." ”

Hearing that he could eat egg tarts at home in the future, Jiang Jiang's disappointed face finally looked better.

Continue rummaging through the bags and see the same five or six bags.

"Sister, why did you buy so many daily uses?"

Jiang Lai heard this sentence in the bathroom, turned his head sideways and replied: "Today's supermarket promotion!"

"I see, I thought you were at the end of your day!"

Jiang Lai's footsteps paused, and he looked at the bag of sanitary napkins in Jiang Jiang's hand!

Blinked, should it be ...... He saw it too, right?

So, instead of taking mineral water, I gave her hot chocolate?!

Look back at the white bag that faintly reveals the color of the package.

Jiang Lai desperately held his forehead!

--

Before you know it, the weather has begun to warm up, and the biting cold is completely infelt.

Jiang Jiang complained that the newly bought spring clothes he bought didn't last long, and he was about to press the bottom of the box.

Jiang Lai was washing dishes in the kitchen and glanced back: "I told you a long time ago, the spring and autumn here are briefly and completely negligible, and you bought this dress late!"

Jiang Jiang wailed.

"Isn't it just a dress, are you?"

"I bought it after a long time of shopping, and he hasn't seen ...... yet"

The latter words were swallowed back in Jiang Lai's burning gaze.

"Who is he?"

Jiang Jiang blinked, his eyes wandered from side to side, and his hands were behind his back.

"No, I didn't say anyone!"

Jiang Lai bent his lips and exposed her with a smile: "Jiang Jiang, do you know that when you lie, you always put your hands behind your back, and then twist your two index fingers together. ”

Jiang Jiang's body stiffened, and he quickly put his hand down, and his steps slowly retreated.

"Sister, I really didn't say anyone, I still have a job, I'm in the house. ”

After saying that, he turned around and ran into his room.

Jiang Lai raised his eyebrows and went back to continue washing the dishes.

She didn't just find out that Jiang Jiang was wrong today.

The occupational disease of screenwriters is to love to observe subtle facial expressions.

Jiang Jiang's recent behavior naturally did not escape her eyes.

Probably in love.

As for who it was, she was not in a hurry to ask.

Although they live together, she will not interfere in Jiang Jiang's personal life.

But it was necessary for her to let Jiang Jiang know that her abnormal behavior had been discovered.

It's better to be restrained and don't think about doing whatever you want.

When it's almost time, you have to take the initiative to confess.

Speaking of anomalies, there is another person who is also abnormal recently.

Since the completion of "Jincheng", she and Joey have only spoken on the phone twice.

Joey said she was looking for a boyfriend.

In the past, when she was on vacation, she would post a circle of friends with a landscape picture.

Then harassed Jiang Lai early in the morning and told her what her boyfriend had done that moved her.

At that time, Jiang Lai still felt that she had a split personality. can easily control various roles under the camera, and in the eyes of the public, she is also a pretty woman with a myriad of manners.

When I'm with my boyfriend, it's like a little girl who has just fallen in love.

A little thing can move her to a mess.

But this time, there was no circle of friends, no harassing calls.

Jiang Lai's strange sixth sense was faintly haunting again, as if something was about to happen.

After taking a shower, she was holding a hair dryer to blow her hair.

Halfway through the blow, I glimpsed the phone screen lit up from the mirror.

As soon as I turned off the hair dryer, the screen went black again.

When she picked up her phone, she saw that there were five missed calls on it.

It's all Joey's fight.

I went to the bookstore during the day today, and Jiang Lai muted his mobile phone.

I forgot to open it when I came back.

So many calls?

Jiang Lai called, "beep" twice, and the phone was connected.

Before she could speak, there was loud music on the other end of the phone.

Where is this?

"Joey?"

After a full hiccups, Joey laughed twice, "Lailai, Lailai, is your phone broken again?" Why don't you answer my call, I have ...... Exceptionally great news for you!"

"Did you drink too much? Where are you? Isn't your boyfriend with you?"

"You...... Who are you talking about? Oh, Jianjian, he's not my boyfriend, he's my husband, he's in Guangzhou!"

Looks like I drank too much!

"And where are you?"

It took a while for Joey's voice to come back on the phone.

"I, I'm singing!!"

Saying that, Joey really started singing.

Jiang Lai sighed and patiently asked again, "Joey, where are you?"

The phone hung up.

Jiang Lai was not at ease, so he called Xiaoya directly.

Xiaoya said that Joey didn't contact her again after she went to Guangzhou.

Jiang Lai called Joey again.

This time the call went through.

"Where the hell are you?"

……

When Jiang Lai arrived at KTV, he was out of breath.

The caller who just called was actually a waiter at KTV, saying that Joey was drunk and sleeping in a private room.

Frightened, she hurriedly took a taxi over.

When he saw Joey, Jiang Lai couldn't cry or laugh.

If she hadn't known it was Joey, she wouldn't have recognized it.

A man lying on the sofa, a neck-length instant noodle roll.

Wearing a black coat, it doesn't look Joey's style.

Jiang Lai pulled away the hair that was sticking to her face and found that she was still ******.

He still has a mask on his chin.

Jiang Lai put on the mask for her, and then asked the waiter to help people out of the KTV with her.

All the way, Joey didn't wake up, leaning on her and falling asleep.

Joey's house was too far away, and it was a big night, so Jiang Lai could only take her home.

Who knew that as soon as he entered the door, Joey was vomiting and talking nonsense.

directly woke Jiang Jiang up.

She was shocked to see such a drunk appear at home.

"Cousin, who is this?"

Jiang Lai pushed Joey into his room before he said, "A friend of mine, drunk, sleep here for one night, you go back to sleep quickly, and you will go to work tomorrow!"

Jiang Jiang, who was sleepy-eyed, let out an "oh" and went back to sleep.

Jiang Lai let out a sigh of relief, found a new towel, and went in to take care of the unconscious drunk after getting wet.

--

At noon the next day, when Jiang Lai was cooking lunch, he heard a high-pitched scream from his room.

Then there is the sound of the door opening.

"Awake?"

Jiang Lai turned around and saw at a glance that last night's instant noodle roll had become a "bird's nest" after a night.

Face ...... I can't see it at all.

Joey looked at Jiang Lai with a dull expression: "Lailai, why are you here?"

Jiang Lai laughed angrily and pointed to the bathroom: "Go take a shower and take out your 'bird's nest' that can live in magpies." ”

When Joey sat down at the dinner table in Jiang Lai's pajamas, the whole person seemed to have just woken up.

"Lailai, why am I at your house?"

Jiang Lai served her half a bowl of rice before sitting down opposite her.

"I've known you for so long, and I've finally seen another side of you. If you're drunk, it's just another person entirely. ”

Joey touched his nose in embarrassment, not quite sure: "Are you talking about me?"

Jiang Lai snapped his fingers and continued to settle the accounts after the autumn: "Last night, I vomited and talked nonsense, and I was not honest when I went to sleep, so I kicked me off the bed, and I woke up today and lost my memory." ”

Joey scratched her hair and looked apologetic, "I'm sorry, I drank too much!"

"Tell me, what's going on? I listened to a bunch of nonsense yesterday, and today I'm sober, explain and explain, what do you mean you're getting married?"

Joey was stunned: "I still said this?"

Jiang Lai nodded.

Joey licked her lips and tucked the shredded hair from her forehead behind her ears.

"It's my boyfriend who proposed to me!"

Jiang Lai didn't speak, waiting for her to continue.

If it was just that, she wouldn't be what she was yesterday.

Sure enough, Joey's words were: "I almost agreed." ”

"Then why didn't you say yes? Isn't that what you've always dreamed of?"

Joey nodded: "Yes, I have always wanted to form a family with him and become a family." So when he proposed, I felt like I was stepping on a cloud, and I was so excited that I couldn't speak. ”

Then the joy on her face suddenly disappeared: "However, he said that he hoped that I would quit the entertainment industry after I got married." I can be a stay-at-home wife, or I can work in his company, which is what his parents meant. ”

Jiang Lai frowned, she had only seen photos of Joey's boyfriend, and she looked good.

Joey was also full of praise for him.

Who would have thought that such a divergence would arise at this step into marriage.

"What about you?

Joey shook his head, "I know his parents have some opinions about my career, so I have been avoiding seeing his parents and not thinking about it. But when he said that, I panicked, and then I ran!"

Jiang Lai was surprised: "Ran away?"

"Yes, I packed my things and ran back without saying hello to him. He hasn't contacted me in the past few days, so I think he's probably angry. ”

Jiang Lai has no experience in this kind of thing, so she can only persuade her from the perspective of a bystander: "Marriage is a big deal, no matter what decision you want to make, you must think clearly." Escaping is not the way to go, things have to be solved. If you really want to marry him and go hand in hand, then you have to think about how to choose, and whether you will regret it after giving up!"

"I ......"

"Let's eat first, you haven't eaten since last night. ”

Joey looked down at the half bowl of rice in front of him.

"Or make you a salad, haven't you been controlling your weight?"

Joey raised his head and looked aggrieved: "But I'm hungry now!"

The implication is that we can't wait.

Jiang Lai smiled: "Okay, then let's eat quickly!"

After eating, Jiang Lai threw Joey's clothes into the washing machine.

The two of them sat on the sofa and watched the trailer of "Jincheng".

When the box of paper was used up, Jiang Lai looked at the person who was still smiling brightly in the piece of flowers just now, but at this moment he burst into tears.

"Still watching?"

Joey was crying and sobbing.

"Look!"

--

In the evening, Jiang Lai urged Joey to change his clothes.

"Lylai, can't you take me in?"

Jiang Lai handed her the clothes: "My cousin lives with me, if she knew that the drunk yesterday was the big star Joey, she would have blown up." Also, the aunt next door is a very enthusiastic person, if you are found, within half a day, the whole community will know that you live in my house. ”

Joey could only follow Jiang Lai out.

The "instant noodle roll" can't be worn, so Jiang Lai found her a hat.

On the way back to Joey's house, she still leaned on Jiang Lai's shoulder like yesterday and didn't say a word.

When he got off at the gate of the community, Joey also kept holding Jiang Lai's hand.

Jiang Lai is like leading a child home.

Walk to Joey's door.

She held out her hand: "Key!"

Joey looked at her and didn't move.

Jiang Lai sighed: "I'm not leaving, I'll stay with you today!"

That's when Joey took out the key.

Once inside, Joey went straight to the bedroom.

Jiang Lai waited for her to fall asleep before going to the balcony.

Looking at the flowers on the balcony that was still vibrant, a sentence suddenly came to mind.

Love, it's really an abrasive thing.
