Chapter 8: Self-inflicted affection

Returning home from the Lin family, Xia Mu asked suggestively, "Little kite, what do you think of Ji Zhi?"

Xia Kite's heart moved when she heard this, and after yesterday's meal, her mother's meaning was revealed.

"Not bad. Xia Kite said casually.

Xia's mother was overjoyed, "I'll just say, Ji Zhi's child is very good, he looks very good, and his ability is strong, he became the captain of the criminal police at a young age, and he is also gentle and polite to people......

Xia Kite didn't speak, only listened to her mother in silence, and finally made a conclusion: It seems that her mother really likes Lin Jizhi!

"When I talk to you, are you listening carefully?" Xia Mu couldn't help frowning when she saw that her face did not fluctuate.

"I'm listening. Xia Yuan already understood, and smiled slightly, "You like Lin Jizhi very much, compared to my daughter, he is afraid that his weight in your heart is heavier than mine!"

"What are you talking nonsense!" Xia Mu said angrily.

Xia Yuan pursed her mouth, "I'm telling the truth!"

Xia Mu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xia Kite's mobile phone ringtone, and the caller ID was Lin Jizhi.

Xia Yuan answered the phone, "Hey?"

Xia Mu naturally saw the caller ID and walked to the side very interestingly.

"I'm downstairs at your house, giving you a ride. Lin Jizhi's magnetic voice came from the other end.

Xia Yuan's heart moved, walked to the balcony and looked downstairs, only to see Lin Jizhi leaning on the body, raising his head and smiling at her, the figure leaning against the body was so tall, the police uniform was worn meticulously, and the contour of his face revealed a sense of righteousness.

Xia Yuan waved his hand and told him with his lips: "Wait for me for ten minutes!"

Lin Jizhi made an OK gesture.

Xia Yuan hung up the phone and shouted at Xia's mother in the kitchen, "Mom, Lin Jizhi came to pick me up, and I will leave." ”

"Go, go, go. Xia Mu said with a smile, and a flower bloomed on her face.

Xia Yuan sighed in her heart, she didn't know how long this illusion would last, and every time she played an ambiguous relationship with Lin Jizhi, she felt guilty.

Xia Yuan went downstairs, Lin Jizhi opened the door for her, smiled and said, "Five minutes." ”

Xia Yuan pursed her mouth, "I thought my mother would nag a few words, but today was unexpected, you should thank my mother." ”

"Yes, it's my aunt's credit. Lin Jizhi smiled, suddenly thought of something, and paused, "How long is there until the exam?"

Xia Yuan tugged at the corners of her mouth, "Three days." ”

"Okay, when your exam is over, I'll wash the dust for you. ”

Xia Yuan turned her head to look at him, "What if it hasn't happened?"

"That's the last meal. ”

Summer Kite: "......"

Lin Jizhi sent Xia Kite to the door of the community and left directly.

Three days passed quickly, and the night before the exam, Xia Yuan did not stare at the information anymore, but swiped the circle of friends for a while.

By the way, I posted a circle of friends: Tomorrow's exam, every exam must pass!

As soon as it was sent out, Lin Jizhi commented below: "Well, I'll invite you to dinner tomorrow, wait!"

followed by Lin Qin: "Big baby, come on, you must pass every exam!"

Then there were comments from several classmates, Xia Yuan was reluctant to reply one by one, so she swiped down, and suddenly saw one, only two simple words: Come on.

Xia Kite's heart jumped, a handsome and cold face appeared in her mind, and she suddenly remembered that she had not been in touch for a whole week.

The last time she said that she invited him to dinner, now she has also forgotten about it.

Xia Yuan thought about it and sent a message, "Haven't slept yet?"

A second passed, and the other party replied, "Hmm." ”

Xia Kite suddenly lifted her spirits, "It's so late, what are you doing?"

Jiang Zhe, who had just come out of the bathroom at this moment, was half-naked with his upper body, the water beads said that the muscle lines were slipping, and there was no expression on his fair and handsome face, just staring at the eyebrows of the mobile phone, but a smile gradually appeared.

"Just got out of the shower. ”

Xia Yuan was silent for a moment, and her mind unconsciously appeared in the picture of a beautiful man coming out of the bath, and swallowed her saliva, "Ah, are you going to sleep?"

"There's no hurry. Jiang Zhe half lay on the bed and replied to her: "Chat with me." ”

Chat with me...... Xia Yuan stared at the four words on the screen, her heartbeat slowly accelerated, and the chat between men and women at night was not just chatting?

"What are you talking about?" Xia Kite typed, her heartbeat uncontrollably beating.

The other party did not reply, but called in directly, Xia Yuan was startled by the call, took a few seconds to calm down, and connected the phone.

"Hey, I'm Xia Kite. Subconsciously blurted out the opening line.

"Well, I know. Jiang Zhe's deep magnetic voice came, like a magical voice, "When will the exam be finished?"

"Twelve o'clock at noon. ”

"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow. ”

"......" Xia Yuan was stunned, "Do you have something?"

"Invite me to dinner. ”

“……”

After chatting for no more than ten sentences in total, she hung up the phone, Xia Yuan was speechless, the other party called just to remind her that she still owed him a meal, this feeling was really terrible, as if she was doing it alone.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and Xia Yuan was lying on the wide bed, looking at the lights outside the window, but she couldn't sleep.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Xia Yuan woke up on time, got up to brush her teeth and wash her face, and it was already 8:15 when she was dressed up.

When I arrived at the exam room, it was exactly half an hour early, and the exam lasted for three hours.

In the crowd at the entrance of the examination room, a man attracted the attention of many people, Jiang Zhe stood in the crowd, his figure was so tall, his legs were so slender and straight, he wore a black suit meticulously, his eyebrows were narrow and long, and his face contours showed a kind of indifferent extravagance.

Xia Kite followed the crowd out of the examination room, only glanced at the crowd casually, and saw him in the crowd.

My heart beat half a beat slower, and I suddenly understood, it turned out that he was waiting for her!

From the outside, Xia Kite is a quiet and delicate girl, she has long hair and a shawl, a slender figure, fair skin, delicate facial features, and a lack of water in the facial features, but she is the type that is more comfortable the more she looks.

Xia Kite walked directly in front of him and smiled, "How long have you been waiting?"

"It didn't take long. Jiang Zhe said lightly: "Let's go." ”

Xia Kite followed him, "Do you have anything you want to eat, or a recommended store?"

"Yes. ”

Xia Yuan subconsciously felt that he would take her to a high-end Western restaurant and order red wine and French baguette, because he gave her the feeling that he was this kind of person.

The place where she took him to eat last time, he didn't actually eat much, and afterwards, Xia Yuan thought about it, it shouldn't be to his taste.

But what Xia Yuan didn't expect was that Jiang Zhe drove her to a place she hadn't been to, parked the car, took her through the shopping street, and then entered a lively snack street.

The unique aroma of barbecue filled the entire street, Jiang Zhe rolled up his sleeves, strode to a barbecue stall and sat down, and then pointed to the position next to him, "Sit." ”

Looking at this street, Xia Yuan remembered that Lin Jizhi brought her here every time she invited her to dinner, and every time she half-jokingly said: "Can't you invite me to a high-end Western restaurant to eat? ”

Lin Jizhi replied to her disapprerovingly, "What are the things eaten in those Western restaurants, only the snacks from our stalls are delicious!"

Jiang Zhe and Lin Jizhi are two completely different people, Xia Yuan didn't expect that the two of them would have the same preferences.

So Xia Kite stayed for a few seconds before sitting down, looking at the fresh potatoes in front of her and the cleaned lotus root slices in a daze.

Jiang Zhe skillfully put these things on the barbecue grill, doing these things as if he was the boss.

The boss sent a fragrant and tender little yellow croaker again, and Xia Kite finally couldn't help but speak, "I didn't expect you to like to eat barbecue." ”

Jiang Zhe didn't raise his head, "I don't like to eat these, so which ones should I like to eat?"

Xia Kite didn't want to answer: "Steak." ”

"I've eaten Western food abroad for so many years, and I'm tired of it. ”

Xia Yuan was stunned, and before she could think about how to answer, she only heard him say, "There are no such things abroad." ”

Xia Yuan understood, he wasn't showing off, he just liked these in China.

"There are so many obese people in Europe, how do you keep in shape?" Xia Kite asked casually.

Jiang Zhe didn't answer, the proprietress brought the chicken steak up, glanced at Xia Kite, and said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang, it's the first time I've seen you bring a girl to eat." ”

"Hmm. ”

Without much explanation, the proprietress suddenly lost her interest in gossip, but couldn't help but look at Xia Kite, this girl was wearing a light-colored skirt, long black and thick hair, beautiful and delicate, no matter how she looked at it, she matched Jiang Zhe's face.

After a while, the proprietress brought a plate of oysters and said with a smile, "This one is for you." ”

Xia Yuan was a little stunned, reacted and smiled, "Thank you, boss." After speaking, he was about to clip but was stopped by the proprietress and said, "Girl, you should not eat this, it is better for Mr. Jiang to eat it." ”

Xia Kite asked suspiciously, "Why?"

The proprietress smiled, "This must be eaten by a man to make up for it!"

If you don't understand such an obvious hint anymore, it will definitely not be Xia Kite, Xia Kite pulled the corners of her mouth, and was about to explain the relationship between the two people, but she heard Jiang Zhe say, "Thank you, boss." ”

"No thanks. The proprietress smiled and turned away.

Xia Yuan couldn't help but speak, "The boss lady seems to have misunderstood our relationship. ”

Jiang Zhe glanced at her and wrote lightly: "Probably." ”

Summer Kite: "......"

Xia Yuan was struggling with whether to explain to the proprietress or not, Jiang Zhe's mobile phone rang, he glanced at the number on it, and hung up directly.

But it didn't take long for the phone to ring endlessly, Xia Kite is a smart person, and he eats quietly at this time.

Finally, Jiang Zhe couldn't help it, sighed and answered the phone, "Hey." ”

The person on the other end of the phone said something Xia Kite couldn't hear, but the voice that came could tell that it was a woman.

However, after the other party said a long list of words, Jiang Zhe only said: "I'm busy, I'll talk about it later." ”

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

After that, Xia Kite didn't speak again, and his mind flashed through the relationship between the woman on the phone and him.

Thinking about it, the relationship between men and women has become the biggest speculation.

Jiang Zhe said lightly: "There are a lot of things at work, and it is indeed easy to cause trouble in private life. ”

Just a casual sentence dissolved all kinds of speculations in her mind.

Xia Yuan was inexplicably happy in her heart, and her voice was unconsciously raised, "The lawyers are quite busy." ”

"Hmm. Jiang Zhe raised his head and looked at her, "It's really busy, and I barely have time for myself." ”

Xia Yuan smiled, "Even if you don't have personal time, it's worth defending the victims." ”

"It's good that you think so. Jiang Zhe said: "It's just that many things are not so simple, and they are not so beautiful. ”

"Maybe, but I'm still going to be a lawyer!" Xia Yuan said firmly.

Jiang Zhe didn't say anything, only said: "If you need help, you can come to me." ”

——

In the next few days, Xia Kite was waiting for the results, and every day was tense, thinking crankily in her head.

At the same time, Lin Jizhi was also busy with Zhou Lin's case.

Zhou Lin's case has reached a dead end, and there is no direct evidence to prove that she is the murderer, but there is a lot of indirect evidence pointing to her, like a scapegoat.

When the two of them were confused, they would call each other, almost at the same time, and Lin Jizhi was a little early.

"Have you slept?" Lin Jizhi lit a cigarette and looked out the window with a frown.

Xia Kite put on a mask and called him, "I didn't sleep." ”

"Are the exam results out?"

"Not yet. Xia Yuan paused, "How's your case going?"

"Don't mention it. Lin Jizhi sighed and complained for the first time, "That girl is like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard, refusing to accept the investigation, and looking like an enemy policeman." ”

Xia Yuan listened to his words and became curious, "Who is that girl, she still hates the police, doesn't she want to clarify?"

"It's the daughter of the murderer ten years ago. ”

Xia Yuan was stunned, remembering the scene more than ten years ago, she couldn't help frowning, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Finally, he said, "Are you sure she's innocent? ...... after all?"

Xia Kite didn't continue, and swallowed her father as a murderer.

Of course, Lin Jizhi understood what she wanted to say, and twisted her eyebrows, "My intuition tells me that that girl is not a murderer. ”

Xia Yuan tugged her lips, "Otherwise, I haven't had anything to do recently, so I should do you a favor, and I'll go with you to meet that girl." ”

Lin Jizhi raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Okay, you really flattered me when you said that." ”

Xia Yuan smiled: "you!"
