It took Jiang Xiaomi twenty minutes to get home.

took out 20,000, plus Long Xiaochen's 20,000, and issued an invoice.

When I went back, I drove back.

"Didn't you say that the buyer went to your house, so where do you live now?

"Yes, my luggage moved there, after all, the rent there is still a few months left, and I will find another house when it is almost due. He turned his head, "I only have two thousand dollars left now, but it's enough to buy ingredients." ”

"I still have some in private, it's okay, it's not enough, we just have to make it up, I also have to learn to make fast bread, should we come up with a name?"

Long Xiaochen groaned, "I should think of one, why don't you take our surname?"

"Longjiang, Jianglong, is a little awkward, take another name. ”

"It's ripe for millet, how about it?" Long Xiaochen pursed his lips, the corners of his mouth raised.

"That's it. He was joking, but he didn't expect Jiang Xiaomi to agree.

"Really?"

"Didn't you mention yì? That's it, millet is cooked, it's really good, although it doesn't have a direct connection with the cake, but I like the name so much. ”

***

Almost all afternoon, they were discussing how to make their favorite bread and when it would open, in addition, the two of them also discussed some other marketing plans, the tacit understanding between the two people surprised both of them, Jiang Xiaomi felt that he didn't need to say much, he knew what he was going to say, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

When I got back, it was already dark.

Walking to the door of the house, looking at the light coming from the crack in the door, Jiang Xiaomi was about to open the door.

After a moment's thought, she opened the door.

Hongtang sat on the sofa with a cigarette between his fingers, saw her and came back and asked, "Where did you go?"

"I didn't go to work in the hospital for half a year, so I wanted to find a side hustle to do it, and I partnered with a friend I knew to open a cake shop, the kind that sells in RVs. She told the truth.

"Why?"

"What?"

"Why do you want to do such unprofitable and hard work, it's better to go back to the hospital and sit in the office, isn't it?" he wondered.

"Didn't you put me off pay for half a year?"

Hongtang extinguished the cigarette butt and stood up, "But, I asked you to leave without pay to recuperate and rest, what kind of side hustle do you have, how much money can you earn? How many years have you sold that necklace enough for you to do a side hustle?"

This was a pain for Jiang Xiaomi, she knew that he mentioned it unconsciously, but it still made her feel very uncomfortable.

"I'll give you back that necklace. ”

"I asked you to pay it back?" Hongtang felt that the more he spoke, the more he couldn't get to the point.

"I'll give it back to you. She turned around and walked into the bedroom, opened the drawer, held it in the palm of her hand, walked out of the bedroom again, and put it in front of Hongtang, "Such a valuable thing, give it to me as a burden, I can't afford it." ”

Hongtang opened it, looked at the necklace inside, and asked, "Where did you get the money back?"

"You don't have to worry about this, it's not a sale/body anyway. ”

Her words made Hongtang furious, "What do you mean by that?"

Jiang Xiaomi didn't say anything, and went back to the bedroom to take a bath.

But he grabbed his hand, "Xiao Mi, let me ask you again, where did you get the money? Who borrowed it?"

I refused to answer. ”

Some explanations always turn into another kind of words.

Hongtang stared at her, "Why did you give me back the necklace?"

"If I don't give it back to you, you're in a bad mood. ”

"I gave it to you......"

Jiang Xiaomi met his gaze, "Since you gave it to me, why don't I have the right to dispose of it?" You just gave it to me to let me wear it, in case I lose it or whatever, you have to give it to me with this kind of face, right?"

"Are you lost? If you lose it, I'll just buy you another one without saying a word, why are you so stupid, Jiang Xiaolan bullied you so much, you still have to save her, do you have a brain?" Hongtang looked at her and felt that he was about to be angry.

"It's been so many days since it happened, and I don't want to say anything about it anymore. "She's stupid, she's stupid!

"It's not that you don't have the right to dispose of this chain, I want to know, Xiaomi, do you still love me?"

Jiang Xiaomi was about to lose her breath, so she didn't answer directly, "What do you say?"

"I don't think you love me that much anymore......"

"I don't think you've ever loved me......"

Hongtang couldn't believe what she said.

"Why do you think so?"

"Feelings. She said two words, picked up her bathrobe and went into the bathroom.

He stood there alone, watching the bathroom door close, confused.

He didn't love her, maybe he had been with her all these years?

Could she be the only woman?

Why would she think so!

He didn't know, he didn't understand, he thought her words were completely wrong and irresponsible!

****

Zhong Yuchen was in the closet for a long time, and he felt pain all over his body for a long time.

But, fortunately, there was movement outside.

He was in the crack of the closet, watching the bedroom door open and the night entered.

After going around and finding no one, he went out again.

Zhong Yuchen looked at his demeanor just now and felt that he was looking for someone, wasn't Xiao Ai with him?

After a while, his voice came from the living room, "Judge Cui, go find someone." ”

"Lord, are you looking for a lady?"

"Well, she can't get out of this mountain, she doesn't know where she is now, go look through it and see where she is. ”

"Okay, Lord, you rest first, and your subordinates will do it immediately. ”

“……”

When Zhong Yuchen heard this, he immediately knew something.

She was really imprisoned by him, and she couldn't get out of this mountain?

Why not speak up?

It's for ......

In this way, Zhong Yuchen knew the reason.

At this moment, he was a little glad that he came.

Some misunderstandings arise from the inability of two people to communicate, and sure enough, he guessed correctly, this little liar! When he meets her, he will settle accounts with her!

Although he already knew it, Zhong Yuchen thought that this would go out, and it was not a good strategy.

The western mountain was very large, and he thought that if he found someone, the dark night would be faster than him.

He just waited.

Try not to let yourself breathe, this process is really uncomfortable in the cabinet, this is the second time Zhong Yuchen has drilled into the cabinet for Shu Xiaoai, speaking of which, he actually felt that he did it for her for the first time in his life.

Not all, at least, some.

Zhong Yuchen leaned there, not daring to make a loud sound, nor daring to close his eyes.

I nervously listened to the noise outside.

It wasn't until more than half an hour had passed that a voice came from outside.

"Lord, I searched around, but I found no trace of Jiao Niang. ”

"No? Could it be that the world has evaporated? The barrier has not been broken, probably hiding somewhere, there is no need to look for her first, I think, she can't hide for a lifetime. ”

"What if Jiao Niang doesn't come out?"

"How is it possible? Just wait, less than a month, so it's okay, let her calm down. ”

When he finished speaking, there was no sound.

After hearing this, Zhong Yuchen decided to leave here later, he couldn't wait here for a month, it would be better to come back in a few days.

But he kept a tape recorder in his closet, and when he came back, he would know.

***

When Jiang Xiaomi came out of the bath, Hongtang said directly, "I don't love you, will I want to marry you after being with you for so many years?"

"If you've been with me for a long time, if you want to get married, you must love me?" Jiang Xiaomi sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him seriously, "We have never touched on this topic, so let's talk about it now, Hongtang, do you know what love is?"

Hongtang felt a little like laughing, "I'm almost thirty years old, I don't know what love is?"

"Does this have anything to do with age?" Jiang Xiaomi asked rhetorically, "Every time I celebrate my birthday, I remind you that you know, do you know what I like? Do you know what I like to eat? When I get off work late, how many times have you picked me up? Aren't you worried that I will be in danger alone? Do you have my photo on your computer? Which group am I in on your communication software? Is my name my full name on your mobile phone? Have you ever been in the kitchen for me?" Aren't these little details enough to show that you are not interested in knowing my Yiqiē and not loving me?"

"You also know that I don't love and can't cook, isn't it every time I wash the dishes when you cook? How can this be listed as a reason why I don't love you, and on the messaging software, you are among my friends, does this need to be specially noted?"

Jiang Xiaomi pushed her hair behind her ears, "If you don't like to cook and can't cook, you can completely become a person who wants to cook and loves cooking, even if you can't do it, you have to try to learn it, because in the situation that she can't do it with a cold and fever, she comes once in a while, instead of just ordering takeout, which has nothing to do with whether she wants to or not, and has nothing to do with whether she is lazy or not." ”

Hongtang also sat down and looked at her, "We've been together for more than five years, do you have to talk to me about such a topic?"

The corners of her eyes moistened, "So...... You think I'm telling you this, you think I'm doing it, because in the past five years, I have never said this to you, I have never asked anything for you, and you have become accustomed to it, habit, it is really a terrible thing, it will make you stay in this state for a long time, thinking that it is love, don't you think, you just need my company, get used to my company, just because you want to be with me, not because you love me, you can't leave me?"
