Chapter 169: He Got a Reason
"Young master, now Jiang Xiaoqiao is a public figure, it can be said that she has been pushed to the cusp of the storm, if you meet her so rashly and are photographed by reporters......"
Although Jian Lan knew that what she said would make Xu Jinlang unhappy, she couldn't watch Xu Jinlang inadvertently ruin all her efforts like this.
Anyway, Xu Jinlang is still good to Jian Lan in some aspects.
What's more, Xu Jinlang is her young master.
"I know, I'm not stupid enough to be that point, so Jan, I'll help me find a more secluded place to talk, and the hilltop restaurant where I was last time with Joe was good. ”
Xu Jinlang's expression was faint, as if he didn't think so, and lowered his eyes slightly, so he missed the pain that flashed on Jian Lan's face.
"Jian Lan, you are the most capable one of the people around me, can this matter be handled?"
The breeze blew in, blowing Jian Lan's neat short hair, her eyes were slightly dark, and there were continuous ripples in her heart.
A few years ago, Jian Lan might have been happy because of Xu Jinlang's sentence "You are the most capable".
But Jian Lan only felt that she wanted to laugh, and her face became more and more indifferent and cold.
If you think about it, since she is the most capable, then she should always be a person who has no weaknesses and can do everything perfectly.
"Yes, young master. ”
After a long time, Jian Lan spoke slightly, and her tone was no longer as eager as just now, but a little desolate.
Falling in love with such a man may be the sadness of Jian Lan's life, but she doesn't regret it or regret it.
Love is love, her love for Xu Jinlang is her business, and it has nothing to do with him.
Xu Jinlang, who was reading the newspaper, seemed to notice that something was wrong in Jian Lan's tone, and as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw that Jian Lan, who had always been cold and hard, was lowering his eyes slightly, and a smile slipped out of the corner of his mouth, but the smile was extremely bitter.
Just such a light glance made Xu Jinlang directly stunned in place, and the strange emotions in his heart couldn't be concealed.
In order not to be photographed by reporters, Xu Jinlang arranged for Jian Lan to pick up Jiang Xiaoqiao, and he went to the mountaintop restaurant to wait first.
While waiting for Jiang Xiaoqiao alone, Xu Jinlang's mind was full of the picture that he had just glimpsed so lightly.
Jane Blue...... How can you show such an expression?
Xu Jinlang didn't know if he really didn't understand or fake.
Half an hour later, Jiang Xiaoqiao followed Jian Lan to the mountaintop restaurant, but he felt a little strange in his heart.
Jiang Xiaoqiao didn't know that Jian Lan was indifferent by nature, but she had never been ignored when she talked to Jian Lan before, and she had ignored it all the way.
"Jan, what's wrong with you today?
Jiang Xiaoqiao leaned closer to Jian Lan slightly, her glass-like eyes flickering, shining with bright light.
“…… Miss Jiang, you've been asking me this question all the way. ”
Jian Lan glanced at Jiang Xiaoqiao lightly, and finally lost to her.
Jiang Xiaoqiao chuckled and pouted after hearing Jian Lan finally speak.
"That's because you haven't spoken to me the whole way, so I'm wondering if even you hate me after I became a 'celebrity' during this time. ”
After that, Jiang Xiaoqiao grinned, the two shallow pear vortices looked very cute, and the small freckles on her cheeks also added a bit of playfulness to her in the sun.
Only then did Jian Lan notice that it seemed that no matter what happened, Jiang Xiaoqiao could be so hippie and smiling, but why did she suddenly hear the loneliness in Jiang Xiaoqiao's tone?
“…… No, Miss Jiang doesn't have to worry about other people, just be herself, those rumors will slowly fade away with time. ”
This is the first time in Jian Lan's impression that she has taken the initiative to comfort someone so much, and it is because of the other party's eyes.
Jian Lan glanced sideways slightly, and saw Jiang Xiaoqiao, who was wearing a white shirt, a sundress on his lower body, and a ball head, looking extremely lively and cheerful.
Who would have imagined that such a flowery girl was being attacked by the people of the entire city with the sharpest weapon language.
"I think so too, but maybe I'm too hypocritical, there is no one to listen to me during this time, so thank you for comforting me. ”
Jiang Xiaoqiao turned his head slightly, looked at Jian Lan and smiled again, the smile on his face was almost brighter than the sun, almost shaking Jian Lan's eyes.
Just as Jian Lan wanted to speak, she saw Jiang Xiaoqiao's eyes on the side: "It's at the top of the mountain!"
As Jiang Xiaoqiao's words fell, Jian Lan also closed her mouth in amusement.
Perhaps, she understood some reasons why the young master would not become like him as usual when he came into contact with Jiang Xiaoqiao.
Even people like Jian Lan were almost infected by Jiang Xiaoqiao.
"Is it hot? Come on in, I've got something ready. ”
Xu Jinlang stood at the door, as if waiting for their arrival, and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the smile on Jiang Xiaoqiao's face, but glanced at Jian Lan with his afterglow.
She was still like that, with her eyes full of indifference, without any superfluous expression on her face, her mouth slightly pursed, and she looked extremely indifferent.
Xu Jinlang almost suspected that the scene he saw in the office was his own delusion.
"Jian Lan come in too, hard work. ”
Just when Jian Lan habitually wanted to leave, Xu Jinlang spit out such a sentence lightly, and her steps paused, but she still stepped out.
"No, I'll go somewhere else and stay alone, and call me if there's something. ”
With that, Jian Lan strode out, leaving Xu Jinlang with deep meaning in his eyes and Jiang Xiaoqiao with an inexplicable expression.
"Jan also seemed to be in a bad mood when she went to look for me just now, and she never answered what I asked her, do you want to go over and have a look?"
Jiang Xiaoqiao keenly sensed that something was wrong, and said slowly with a little caution.
Xu Jinlang then withdrew his gaze staring at Jian Lan's back and chuckled.
"No, don't worry, Jian Lan will be fine. ”
Since Jian Lan followed Xu Jinlang's side, he has hardly seen her have an accident, and over time, he has gone from being nervous at the beginning to becoming accustomed to it later.
After taking Jiang Xiaoqiao to sit in one of the positions, Xu Jinlang raised his eyes and glanced at her, and his golden slightly curly hair was slightly inspired by the wind, sliding out of a beautiful arc.
Jiang Xiaoqiao was under Xu Jinlang's gaze, and the smile on his face gradually converged.
"Sure enough, my smile still can't fool you, a psychiatrist. ”
Xu Jinlang chuckled when he heard this, and subconsciously wanted to rub Jiang Xiaoqiao's hair, but a thought flashed in his mind, and his hand subconsciously froze in midair.
Fortunately, Jiang Xiaoqiao lowered his head and did not notice Xu Jinlang's movements, and after a long time, he sighed slightly and slowly withdrew his hand.
"Tell me about your troubles, it's counseling time, and after the consultation, it's time for friends to chat. ”
Xu Jinlang chuckled, the smile infected Jiang Xiaoqiao, she took a deep breath, slowly spoke, and her glass-like eyes quickly became a little gray.
"Recently...... You should have received a little bit of news, news about me, so to speak, every day, and it's all scandals. ”
When Jiang Xiaoqiao said these words, Xu Jinlang clearly felt the fear in her tone and the evasion of her gaze, and his heart throbbed slightly.
Such a kind girl was actually used like that...... What Xu Jinlang didn't expect was that Mo Jingyuan actually ignored her after the accident.
Just when he was waiting for Jiang Xiaoqiao to come, Xu Jinlang had already asked Cui Liying to investigate the banquet last night, but he didn't expect to get the news, so angry that he almost flipped the table.
"I don't know why, but all of a sudden, the whole company started to speak ill of me, and I thought it was because I was doing something wrong......"
Speaking of this, Jiang Xiaoqiao paused, then laughed at himself, and subconsciously stirred the coffee in front of him with his hand, his eyes were a little worried.
"But suddenly I found out that almost all the scandals in the newspapers were about me, and there were many of them that I hadn't done, Xu Jinlang, I really didn't know what to do. ”
In the end, Jiang Xiaoqiao's tone became very low, and there was still the clever smile on his face, leaving him full of distress and overwhelmed.
Xu Jinlang sighed silently, and then gently patted the back of Jiang Xiaoqiao's hand to show comfort, but did not answer her question directly, but slowly asked again.
"It shouldn't be just because of such a thing, right? Xiao Qiao, if you are still worried about something, you can tell me, and I can help you analyze it. ”
Jiang Xiaoqiao originally lowered his head, but after hearing Xu Jinlang's words, he raised his head suddenly, as if he didn't expect him to be so smart, guessed her situation, and then bit his lower lip.
"Also, about Mo Jingyuan, he has become so strange in the past two days, the distance between him and Bai Pianran is getting closer and closer, and he seems to have some intention of avoiding me, Xu Jinlang, what do you say is wrong with him?"
After that, Jiang Xiaoqiao's eyes were a little misty, and he seemed to be extremely eager to know the answer.
Xu Jinlang was distressed and funny.
I feel sorry that Jiang Xiaoqiao has actually endured so much alone during this period of time, laughing at Jiang Xiaoqiao's sluggishness, obviously he has been eaten to death by Mo Jingyuan, and he doesn't know yet.
What a silly girl.
"Did Mo Jingyuan say anything special to you? If I'm not mistaken, he should have had a compelling reason to do this. ”
Xu Jinlang's words were half-true, but they successfully ignited Jiang Xiaoqiao's hope.
"Say it, say it, by the way, he seems to have told me...... Well...... That's all I can say from him. ”
Jiang Xiaoqiao's face turned slightly red, and he seemed to be a little embarrassed, and lowered his head slightly, so he didn't see a trace of haze flashing in Xu Jinlang's eyes.
said such things to Jiang Xiaoqiao, and actually stood by and watched when she needed help the most?
Xu Jinlang was extremely angry, but he calmed down very quickly, judging from Mo Jingyuan's concern for Jiang Xiaoqiao before, he was not the one who would directly leave Jiang Xiaoqiao alone......
Xu Jinlang suddenly thought of Mo Tian, a character in the Mo family.
Could it be that someone deliberately used Jiang Xiaoqiao to involve Mo Jingyuan and let him be restrained?
Jiang Xiaoqiao saw that Xu Jinlang had not spoken, and subconsciously shook his arm, and his tone was very sincere.
"What's wrong? ”
Xu Jinlang came back to his senses at this time, hooked the corners of his mouth and chuckled, and teased without being salty.
"It seems that Xiao Qiao really cares about Mo Jingyuan, what to do, I don't want to tell you a little. ”
Jiang Xiaoqiao was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, his face turned red, and his expression was not as gray and dull as just now, and he finally returned to his previous appearance.
"Funny to you, listen to me, Mo Jingyuan may have done this for a reason. ”
