Chapter 145: Exhaustion (5)
Yan Jiujiu has been in a hurry for the past few days, and put aside the matter of infighting in the board of directors first.
In addition to keeping an eye on the opera house every day, the managers who were in charge of all the sub-projects of the opera house were all called out to one place, and all the principal departments were ordered to keep a close eye on every grass and tree, and not to slack off.
It's a good thing now, those thieves hiding in the shadows were all scared away by her spontaneous reorganization without anger.
There was no trace to be found, and some of the workers complained privately because of the sudden tighter management and urgent work than usual.
This does not bode well.
But Jing Shilang's words Yan Jiujiu couldn't listen to half a sentence, Linda had made people panic because of her injury, and she would never let this kind of thing that shook the morale of the army happen again.
Her stubborn temper can't be pulled back by ten cows, so naturally it's useless for someone to stop her, Jing Shilang simply hangs it and waits for her to burn the evil fire.
After a few weeks like this, Yan Jiujiu was really tired and sick.
When Jing Shilang came to the Jin Mansion, he was watching O'Henry sitting on the edge of the bed peeling apples, and her petite body was outlined under the quilt.
The two of them talked and laughed.
But then, Jing Shilang did something that even he despised.
He approached the hidden door and listened to the two of them laughing.
"Henry, what have you been doing lately? I haven't seen you when I go to trade. ”
"Isn't there a problem with Gu's factory recently? Brother Jing specifically told me last time that this matter has something to do with Wanping City, so I went there specially. ”
Yan Jiujiu took his apple, and when he heard him say it so easily, he became more and more resentful of Jing Shilang in his heart.
"I knew he wouldn't arrange any good errands for you, alas....." she took a bite of the apple and began to whimsically, "At the beginning, we didn't stop every day in the empire where the sun never sets, but it is not as insidious and cunning here, you should go back when your naval service expires, why do you come to suffer with me......."
The corners of Yan Jiujiu's mouth twitched, Jing Shilang saw all this in his eyes, thinking that he had managed to get her to sign the contract in order to keep her here, and he had thought that he would fall in love for a long time.......
But she not only thought about the empire on which the sun never set, but also thought about letting O'Henry go back.
After this Gu clan's catastrophe, they found that things were more than simple, and he didn't hear a word of comfort and encouragement from beginning to end.
At this time, he couldn't help but listen to O'Henry's answer.
"Although you were born and raised in Los Angeles, but you don't have a trustworthy person, I must not be at ease as your best friend, and my uncle told me to take good care of you. And you forgot? It was you who told me that you had no friends here since you were a child, and that the friend you trust the most is me, so I naturally want to accompany you!"
He is so important to you!
This is the person you keep covering up and avoiding talking about.....
Jing Shilang's hand held the doorknob but trembled involuntarily, on the other side of the door was the woman he thought about day and night, he remembered her thin and cold green eyebrows, loose cloud sideburns, and a small mouth that was always slightly pursed like a dragonfly that wanted to fly.
"Young Master Cousin, you're here!"
Behind him suddenly thought of Chu Qing's voice, he looked back at her hand with a soup in her hand, which was a tonic that he sent regularly every week, and the maid raised her hand knowingly, signaling Jing Shilang to take the medicine bowl.
Chu Qing knew that Young Master Biao loved to behave in front of the young lady.
"You bring it in, I suddenly feel unwell when I walk to the door, go down first, and come up to see your young lady later." ”
The maid felt that something was wrong, but found that Jing Shilang was holding her stomach with a blue face, and quickly gave way.
Jing Shilang went downstairs without looking back.
The people inside the door had already heard the movement outside, and when Chu Qing pushed the door in, Yan Jiujiu only looked at the back of nothingness.
She said, "I clearly heard the voice of that nasty ghost, why is it gone?"
"Miss! The young master said that his stomach was uncomfortable, and he would come up again in a while. ”
Chu Qing was about to feed the medicine, and O'Henry came to pick up the bowl, she was a little embarrassed, but she still handed it over.
Although she didn't hate O'Henry, the medicinal herbs were the ones that the young master had put a lot of thought to, and she was inevitably upset in her heart.
"As soon as I came to see me, he said that his stomach was uncomfortable, so what should I do if I look at him every day when he is uncomfortable, I am not blind and deaf, how uncomfortable I am!"
Chu Qing listened to Yan Jiujiu complaining again, and was already aggrieved for Jing Shilang in her heart, but now she was even more reluctant, and deliberately put on the face of a fake lady.
"Miss, these medicinal materials are all sent by the young master in person, and every once in a while they are also sent to the house to make fun and delicious, if you want me to say that the young master is the most concerned about you. ”
She counted as she counted, and saw O'Henry pouting at the sight of him.
But O'Henry still fed the medicine quietly, as if he hadn't heard it, Chu Qing felt wronged, she obviously seemed to be wronged for others, why did the two of them ignore her.
Chu Qing was angry, and after doing his part, he went downstairs angrily.
Yan Jiujiu looked at the bowl and almost showed it, pushed the spoon and said: "Henry, look at my stupid girl, when I return to the empire in the future, I will leave this girl in Los Angeles, isn't she doing everything to my cousin?
O'Henry smiled silently, he couldn't say that she was jealous of a girl.
He took a handkerchief and dipped the medicine stain on the side of her mouth, and said, "Will you return to the empire where the sun never sets?"
"I ...... I....... I'm sure I'm going back. The bitterness in her mouth had not yet dissipated, and her throat seemed to be glued, and she said intermittently.
O'Henry smiled, his eyes seemed to contain the infinite starry sky, like a soft ballad, deep and quiet.
Yan Jiujiu's heart was inexplicably weak, and the man with a frank and clear smile in front of her saw through the secret that even she didn't want to admit.
"Okay, the medicine is also drunk, I'll go and see what delicious food is made in the kitchen, you squint for a while. ”
Yan Jiujiu nodded, she closed her eyes and gently sniffed the aroma that evaporated from the kitchen.
Just as she was contemplating, she was extremely happy, and her footsteps came suddenly, and she felt a person standing beside her.
"Henry, why are you ........ so quickly" Before she finished speaking, she couldn't help but smile when she saw the person standing in front of her, "Aren't you sick to your stomach? Why don't you stay at home? What are you doing here? Beware of the two of us spreading each other's sickness." ”
Jing Shilang leaned down slowly, slowly, his hands propped up on the side of the bed in a posture of a cheetah ready to attack his prey, and he stared at Yan Jiujiu tightly.
"Gastrointestinal diseases are not contagious, I haven't disliked my cousin's wind and cold, my cousin has begun to dislike me first" He moved closer again, his straight nose was like a cold arrow, "This is Sister Shuning's invitation, we will definitely attend the dance party in Jiangfu next Saturday." ”
The invitation fell on the scattered green silk, and he turned around and left without looking back.
"Neurotic!" Yan Jiujiu scolded in a low voice.
But his smooth forehead and phoenix-like eyes were completely engraved in her mind......
