071: Take it if you want
Half a month after the incident, although Xu Jia was sad, he did not shed a single tear.
At this moment, the moment she heard Bai Jingxu's familiar voice, her tears rolled out uncontrollably!
She didn't speak, just turned to look at the dark sky outside the balcony, and wept silently.
But on the other end of the phone, Bai Jingxu could hear her breathing, and he could also hear her forbearance when she cried, so he frowned slightly.
"Are you crying?" he asked.
Xu Jia pursed his lips and asked in a somewhat indifferent tone, "Is there anything wrong with the call?" It's three o'clock in the morning. β
Bai Jingxu heard her indifferent tone and understood that she must be angry about the news report.
He said to her in as soothing a tone as possible: "You are waiting for me at home, and I will go over and explain to you what is on the news now." β
"No need. Xu Jia said categorically.
Bai Jingxu didn't expect to be rejected so decisively and crisply, he could see that she didn't hesitate at all, so she would answer so quickly.
For a moment, he frowned and didn't know what to say.
However, when he finally remembered what to say, Xu Jia rushed to the front and said: "We won't meet in the future, I don't want to see you, even if we meet on the street in the future, if you ask you to pretend not to see me, I will pretend not to know you." β
Xu Jia finished speaking in one breath and hung up the phone vigorously.
She was afraid, afraid that if she didn't hang up the phone, she might relentfully agree to his meeting in the next second.
But the evidence is ironclad, he is now someone else's fiancΓ©, she can no longer stand the slander, and she no longer wants to leave a stain on the history of her life, so that anyone can accuse her.
A cool breeze blows in your face, and the wind on the autumn night makes it difficult to tell whether it is autumn or winter, and it is cold and biting.
Xu Jia stood on the balcony, facing the direction of the wind, her heart was empty, and the wind seemed to hang directly to the bottom of her heart.
After standing for an unknown amount of time, Xu Jia only felt as cold as a popsicle, and then turned around and walked into the house.
But as soon as she lay down, she heard the sound of a doorbell outside.
At that moment, her heart immediately lifted!
In her heart, she subconsciously only thought of Bai Jingxu.
The doorbell kept ringing, and Xu Jia kept hesitating, and when he saw his son's uneasiness tossing and turning over and over again, he gently helped his son cover his ears.
She pursed her lips tightly, and her heart was infinitely sour.
When the doorbell turned into a direct knock, Xu Jia finally couldn't bear it anymore and got up and opened the door.
Almost at the same time, the door to the room where Yu Man was staying on the opposite side was also opened.
The two men looked at each other, both standing in the doorway without moving, but the knocking on the door never stopped.
Seeing Xu Jia's expression, Yu Man almost immediately reacted that the person knocking on the door outside would be.
When he came back to his senses, the expression on Xu Jia's face was a little embarrassed, and he was even at a loss, and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
"Go back to sleep, I'll open the door for you. β
"Yu Man, then don't be too fierce. Xu Jia said this timidly, afraid that he would be despised by Yu Man.
But Yu Man was unexpectedly considerate of her, nodded at her, and then waved her hand to signal her to go back to the house.
After Xu Jia closed the door, Yu Man walked to open the door, trying to make his expression as normal as possible.
However, she still overestimates herself.
At the moment when the door was opened, I couldn't help but want to be angry when I saw Bai Jingxu's face, although that face was indeed handsome.
But what's the use of being handsome, hurting his friends so much.
"Where is Xu Jia, I want to see her. Bai Jingxu was the first to speak, and there was no expression on his face that revealed his emotions.
Yu Man propped up the door panel and looked at him detachedly, "She has already slept, you can tell me anything directly." β
"I know she didn't sleep. Bai Jingxu simply pierced Yu Man's excuse, and looked at her gaze with an irresistible courage and majesty.
Yu Man couldn't help frowning, who the hell is begging whom, why is he still looking like an uncle.
"She's just fallen asleep, and I've seen her fall asleep, and she doesn't want to see you, and if she wants to see you, she'll open the door. Yu Man's tone was a little sharp this time.
Hearing this, Bai Jingxu's deep eyes narrowed slightly, and there was an unkind aura all over his body, which was very terrifying.
After a few seconds of silence, his thin lips opened lightly: "I have a hundred ways to get her to come out to see me, but are you sure you want me to use abnormal means?"
Yu Man's spirit was shocked, and he was a little frightened.
He knew that Bai Jingxu must do what he says, and he must have the ability to do it.
But......
Yu Man gritted his teeth, looked at the man in front of him and said, "I'm sorry, no matter what you do, it is impossible for Xu Jia to come out to see you." β
With that, she withdrew her hand and closed the door.
Seeing the momentum, Bai Jingxu's long legs stretched forward gently, and he was directly stuck in the gap of the door, and he only frowned slightly when he was caught in the bone.
"Are you crazy?!I'll clip you off, believe it or not?!"
Yu Man was extremely surprised, and looked at him with wide eyes. In fact, she herself was a little scared, afraid that she would hurt someone.
But Bai Jingxu turned a deaf ear to her words at all, and while she was still surprised, she directly pulled the door and squeezed into the door strongly, and went straight to Xu Jia's bedroom.
But when I opened them, I didn't find that there was no one inside.
He frowned suspiciously, and turned around to look for Orange Orange's bedroom next door, but when he turned around, he saw Xu Jia standing in the doorway.
She was wearing a dark gray pajamas, her long hair was like seaweed and draped behind her head, but she had lost a lot of weight after only half a month, she was so thin that she looked like skin and bones, and her skin was also sickly fair, only those eyes were extremely dark.
And when Bai Jingxu looked at Xu Jia, Xu Jia was actually looking at him.
His dress is not as serious as usual, but despite this, he still can't hide the high-ranking temperament on his body, which can make a deep impression at a glance, and he is the mature type of man that all women dream of.
But......
But for Xu Jia, every time she looked at it, it hurt her heart, like a needle pricking her.
In the silence of the two people looking at each other, it was Bai Jingxu who finally took the lead in opening his mouth.
His thin lips lightly asked, "Are you okay?"
Hearing this, Xu Jia suddenly wanted to laugh.
Good?
How's that good?
Does he look at her like she is doing well?
Xu Jia took a deep breath and replied to him with a cold expression: "Don't make trouble, the child is sleeping, don't wake him up." β
"Then sit down and I'll tell you. β
Bai Jingxu said and stretched out a hand towards her to greet her.
Looking at the man's knobby hands, it was impossible for Xu Jia's heart to be unwavering, but he was still expressionless on the surface.
After a long time, she shook her head, "You go, I don't want to hear anything." β
Hearing this, Bai Jingxu's brows couldn't help but wrinkle.
He walked straight up to her and tried to close the door and tell her, but Xu Jia was very defensive and immediately retreated outside the door.
There was Yu Man outside the door, and the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing for a while.
No, it's been embarrassing.
Bai Jingxu's cheeks tightened, and then explained: "The engagement is not voluntary to me, didn't I tell you earlier, the Bai family is currently in turmoil, there will definitely be various situations, you promised to stay calm and don't believe one-sided words." β
At the mention of the word engagement, Xu Jia completely collapsed!
She glared at him fiercely, and said with great emotion: "The news is overwhelming, and both of you have come forward to express it, who will believe it if it is one side?"
"I was knocked unconscious by them, injured my brain, and fell asleep for half a month. Bai Jingxu finally said what he didn't want to say, he felt ashamed, such a ridiculous way. I'm also afraid to worry about Xu Jia.
But Xu Jia's reaction next confirmed that his later worries were completely superfluous and self-inflicted.
After hearing his words, Xu Jia spread out his hands and laughed mockingly.
She turned her head to look at Yu Man and said with a sneer: "I was knocked unconscious and fell asleep for half a month." Yu Man, do you believe it?
"Permission Jia. Bai Jingxu called her name in a deep voice.
"Don't call me!"
Xu Jia yelled and retorted, and in a hurry, he pulled him to the door and pushed him to the door!
She stretched out her hand and pointed at Bai Jingxu's nose, and said word by word: "I should have known that you are the kind of person who will do anything for the sake of profit!"
Bai Jingxu frowned, feeling very sad that she said such a thing!
His thin lips pursed, and he looked at her with a cold look in his eyes.
Xu Jia still chased after him and accused: "You just decided to do this in order to keep your position in the Bai family, right? Yes, I, Xu Jia, am just the adopted daughter of a wealthy family, or a down-and-out wealthy family, and your Bai family can buy it whenever you want." But Mei Ziying is the eldest lady, you are just the right person!"
Bai Jingxu was almost angry at her words to slander himself and him, he looked at her with red eyes, and when he saw her thin body, he directly pulled her closer to his arms!
He hugged her tightly, and when he heard her suddenly cry.
"Bai Jingxu, I hate you, why do you treat me like this, why do you want to do this to me?" Xu Jia's face was full of tears, and the tears of beans kept rolling down.
Because she was angry, her breathing was a little short, and every time she breathed, she could smell the man's crisp smell like a mountain forest after the rain.
The smell was like a pair of invisible hands, slicing through her nerve endings and finally hitting her temples directly.
She cried so much that her eyes hurt, she kept sobbing, and her emotions that had been restrained for half a month completely exploded at this moment!
"Why?"
Xu Jia grabbed the man's clothes tightly on his chest, and pressed his forehead against his hard chest.
"Why do you want this to me? If you want money and status, then you shouldn't have proposed to me, you shouldn't have given me this thought, and I should have no joy. β
"No, it won't be empty joy. Hearing the cry of the woman in his arms, Bai Jingxu was distressed.
His hand rubbed against her shoulder, and when he felt that her body had become so thin, her heart felt like she was being pinched hard with her hand.
Xu Jia cried until her eyes were swollen like walnuts.
Gradually, the crying stopped.
Bai Jingxu waited for a long time, and finally waited for her to stop crying, and then he planned to try to communicate with her again.
But before that, he pushed him away, then raised his hand and removed the diamond ring on his finger that he had proposed to her.
"It's yours, and it's back to you now. With his index finger and thumb pinching the ring, he held it in front of him, then tried to shove it into his fist at his side.
But Bai Jingxu clenched his fists tightly and didn't let her succeed.
Xu Jia couldn't help but have a sour look in his eyes again, "What are you doing, you take it." β
As soon as her words fell, her wrist was suddenly tightly choked by the man!
Bai Jingxu looked at her with red eyes, the depths of his eyes were unprecedented anger, his thin lips were pursed tightly, and the cold light fell on her cheeks.
"There is no reason to take back what I sent, if you are not calm today, I will look for you again tomorrow. β
With that, he slowly let go of her hand.
Before leaving, he gave her a deep look, but he couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Take care of yourself." β
Xu Jia didn't respond, standing at the door with his head bowed, although he didn't watch the man leave, but his ears listened intently to his steady footsteps, from near to far, and finally disappeared into the elevator.
After I don't know how long, Xu Jia leaned against the wall numbly, spread out his palm, and looked at the diamond ring inside.
She walked to the trash can and wanted to throw it away, but she didn't know why her hands were already on top of the trash can, but she still couldn't let go, as if someone was restraining her.
"If you really don't want to lose it, just keep it. β
The voice of his good friend Yu Man suddenly sounded behind him, and Xu Jia was startled!
Only a few "clangs" were heard in the silent aisle, and the ring slipped from her fingertips and fell into the trash can, and soon fell silent.
Suddenly, Xu Jia seemed to be woken up by an alarm bell!
She stooped down and rummaged through the trash cans with her bare hands, trying to find the ring in a messy pile of rancid plastic.
It's like the one who was about to lose the ring wasn't her.
"Xu Jia, what are you doing, this is very dirty!" Yu Man's hands that were originally holding immediately put down, and rushed forward to try to stop her.
But by this time, Xu Jia had already heard the sound of the ring colliding with something similar to a glass bottle, so she reached into it without hindrance, so that she tried to bend over, and her face was almost touching the edge of the trash can.
Finally, she felt the ring.
But just as she withdrew her hand, there was a tingling sensation on the back of her hand, and the sound of the brocade silk being torn apart inexplicably sounded in her mind.
When she took out her hand, it was a bloody red.
But she wasn't nervous at all, she just looked at the ring and smiled, and there was a sense of excitement in her heart that she had regained.
And Yu Man was not so calm, she frowned fiercely, and dragged her hand over.
"Xu Jia, Lao Tzu really has enough heart for you!" Yu Man scolded as she pulled her into the house, slammed the door shut, and pressed her to the sofa and sat down.
Xu Jia realized that he had done something stupid, and quietly put the ring in the pocket of his pajamas and did not put it back on.
I'm afraid that Yu Man will see it, and he will throw it away as soon as his temper comes up.
At this time, Yu Man found the medicine box from the cabinet, and when he squatted in front of Xu Jia, he glared at her viciously.
Xu Jia said to her weakly: "You made me not lose it, and you scared me." β
"I'm looking at the fact that the ring can be sold for a lot of money, what about you?" Yu Man asked her in a heavy tone.
ββ¦β¦ Then I also see that the ring can be sold for a lot of money. β
Xu Jia's answer was very empty, and the more he talked about it, the quieter his voice became.
But Yu Man still glared at her fiercely, and then wiped her wounds with alcohol to disinfect.
Even though she had carefully slowed down her wiping, she gasped when the alcohol seeped into her wound.
She had a conditioned reflex to recover, but was pulled by Yu Man, and then another pain came, it was Yu Man who was drugged.
"This medicine will not leave a scar when applied to it, and the recovery will be fast. β
"You tap ......," Xu Jia said complainingly.
Yu Man deliberately aggravated it a little, "Who made you die, who made you die?"
After applying the medicine, the shocking red wound on the back of Xu Jia's hand was covered, and it didn't look so scary.
Yu Man breathed a sigh of relief and threw the things into the medicine box.
"Go to sleep, don't you have to go to class tomorrow?"
When it came to class, Xu Jia suddenly remembered, "I actually met Mr. Ye today, and he also sent his nephew to my class." β
"Then you're going to have to see him more often in the future?"
"Not necessarily, what if he doesn't come to send the child in the future?" Xu Jia said, in fact, he was also comforting himself in his heart.
Yu Man pointed to her bedroom door again, "Go to sleep." β
"Thank you. β
"Thank you, big head!"
Xu Jia walked to the door and was hit on the back of the head by a sofa pillow.
She touched it, entered the house with a smile, and closed the door.
This time, perhaps because she was so excited that she was exhausted, she couldn't resist the drowsiness before she could even think and regurgitate what had just happened, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
β¦β¦β¦.
The next day, at seven o'clock in the morning.
When the alarm clock jingled, Xu Jia frowned tightly in her sleep, and the sleepiness made her feel painful.
But today is Sunday, and she is going to the Children's Palace for class.
Before the alarm clock could be turned off, Yu Man slammed the door, stood at the door with a spatula and said, "Get up and go to work, I'll fry eggs for you." β
"Yu Man, you are like my mother. β
"Scolding?" Yu Man frowned slightly.
Xu Jia sighed, turned over and sat up, and went straight to the bathroom to wash.
When I brushed my teeth and looked in the mirror, I caught a glimpse of the wound on the hand I was holding a toothbrush, and suddenly remembered everything from last night.
Her brushing movement slowed down, her expression became thoughtful, and she leaned in front of the mirror to look at her hands.
In the end, I didn't know what I was thinking in my heart, so I sighed, lowered my head and opened the water to rinse my mouth, and washed my face by the way.
After that, he put on a light makeup to cover up the cyan under his eyes.
At this time, Yu Man had already prepared breakfast.
Orange Orange had already gotten up, sitting at the dining table in his own place, eating the nutritious breakfast prepared for him by Yu Man.
"I'm almost the babysitter for both of you. Yu Man said when he walked out with Xu Jia's breakfast.
Xu Jia raised a smile, took a sip of milk, and said, "In the past two days, I am more disgusted from Monday to Friday, and I will be your nanny." β
"Come on, I can't eat your cooking. β
Xu Jia glared at his good friend angrily, lowered his head and began to eat seriously, and got up from his seat after eating in a hurry.
"Orange Orange, his Aunt Yu Man, Mom went to work. β
"Mom, stay safe, be careful when driving. Orange straightened up and watched her mother to the door until it was shut.
At this time, Orange turned his head to look at Yu Man.
He said with an expression that I already knew, "Uncle Bai came here last night, right? Did he come to bully my mother? I heard my mother crying." β
Yu Man was startled, thinking to himself that he was not sleeping? Moreover, I didn't see him open the door and come out.
Seeing Aunt Yu Man's shocked eyes, Orange Orange sighed slightly, and said in an adult tone: "You are so loud, how can I sleep, I woke up early." β
Yu Man didn't know how to answer, but he couldn't help but wonder in his heart whether the matter between adults had already affected the child.
β¦β¦β¦.
In this car, after Xu Jia got out of the elevator, he suddenly found that he forgot to ask Yu Man where he parked the car last night.
In desperation, I had to take the key and keep unlocking it, looking for it in the parking space where I usually park.
After turning around, she finally found it, and just as she opened the door, someone reached out from behind and grabbed her car door.
The lights in the garage were dim and unclear, and Xu Jia was startled, thinking that someone had robbed him.
She swallowed nervously and didn't dare to move.
"I have money in my bag, and I can give it to you when I am hungry. β
"I want people. A deep voice replied.
Xu Jia heard who the owner of the voice was, frowned slightly, and simply wanted to sit in the car and drive.
But before she could fasten her seat belt, she was choked by the man again.
"Didn't I say I wouldn't let you touch the steering wheel?"
"I don't remember. Xu Jia replied a little angrily, shook off his hand, and continued to tie himself to safety.
This time, the man did not stop her movements, but took her handbag and walked to another place without saying a word.
The bag contains today's lesson plan, as well as a mobile phone, wallet, driver's seat, etc......
Everything that is important and unimportant, it's all in it!
Xu Jia sighed heavily, frowned, and had no choice but to pull out the car keys and catch up.
"Bai Jingxu, you give me back my bag. β
"Take it if you want. The tall and long-legged man walked in front, his back in the parking garage, which had a low ceiling, and he looked even taller.
Xu Jia chased all the way to his car, and finally saw the man stop.
So she also stopped in time and stood almost two meters away from him.
She looked at him expressionlessly, actually a little scared in her heart.
His dress today is much more formal than yesterday, with a suit and leather shoes, mature and steady. The stubble on his face was also shaved clean, and he looked much more energetic than yesterday.
"Get in the car, I'll send you. β
The man spoke suddenly, then pulled open the door and sat in the driver's seat, bringing Xu Jia's bag with him.
Needless to say, it was deliberately allowed to get on the car.
Xu Jia stood still, and the man didn't say a word of nonsense to persuade her, but just started the car and drove out of the parking space.
Seeing that the man was leaving, she finally couldn't bear it anymore!
Still reluctantly, she walked up and pulled the door of the back seat of the car and sat down when the car stopped. The first thing to do is to get your bag back in the passenger seat.
At the same time, she heard a click in the car.
