Chapter 9: The Pillow Man
"Staying up all night? Are you talking about me? Wu Xi frowned and thought for a long time, "Oh, you mean that day, that day was because Director Cui ......"
"You don't have to explain it to me, I'm not interested. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xu Xing interrupted her coldly, and walked into her room without even confiscating the bowl.
"Oh, I'm so short-tempered," Wu Xi stomped his feet in anger, what about such an unreasonable person? Obviously, he and the woman were about to get out of bed, but the wicked person sued first and bit back.
Wu Xi walked to the door of Xu Xing's room and knocked on the door: "I think there are some things that need to be clarified with you." No one responded inside, so she simply opened the door and walked in, "Not to explain to you, but something ......"
She was stunned, Xu Xing was changing clothes, his naked upper body was completely presented in front of her eyes, Wu Xi was stunned, and then, his body was well-proportioned, thin but not woody, and the texture was clear...... One by one, the words popped into her head.
"Why, knowing that I didn't eat enough today, I made a special trip to contribute."
"No, no, no." This was the second time she had escaped like a rabbit today.
Wu Xi looked at the door in front of him, hesitated for a long time, and finally reached out and rang the doorbell.
A man poked his head out of the crack in the door: "Who are you looking for?" ”
Wu Xi let go and bit his lip for a long time: "Mr. Li Shen, this is some of the clothes that your wife put at school." As she spoke, she handed over the bag of clothes in her hand.
"You are?" The man looked at her with some wariness.
Wu Xi didn't answer him, ""Lotus Rhyme" won the award again, you and Teacher Hu Yanqi went to receive the award together, it seems that this painting can bring her a lot of income again." ”
"Yes, you're pretty well-informed......"
"But there is one thing I don't understand, at the award ceremony, Hu Yanqi said that "Lotus Rhyme" was her work completed two months ago, but in this one," Wu Xi took out a USB flash drive from his pocket, "There is a copy of the electronic version of this painting in this, and the save date of this copy is half a year ago." ”
The air froze between the two, and Wu Xi carefully observed the expression on the man's face, but she really couldn't read anything from the empty face.
"How did you get this thing?" His tone was like a blunt knife, squeaking, which made people extremely unhappy to hear.
"This is given to me by Zhong Ming, I have already seen it, here, not only "Lotus Rhyme", but also copies of all the works of Mr. Hu Yanqi in recent years, but the interesting thing is that most of the works are not in the right time, and there are a few paintings that have never been shown, I wonder if after a while, Mr. Hu Yan will show them as his new works."
Seeing that he didn't speak, Wu Xi simply ignored it and continued: "Mr. Li Shen, you also have feelings for Zhong Ming, right?" Do you really want to see her being squeezed like this by your mother? Each of the paintings here is Zhong Ming's brainchild, but they have been taken away by your fame-hungry mother to satisfy her wolf ambitions. ”
"That'...... What do you want to do? The man looked at Wu Xi quietly.
"Tell me what she did to Zhong Ming, you should know the inside story best," Wu Xi looked at him with expectant eyes, "I know you are very conflicted, after all, she is your mother, but you also know how Zhong Ming has come over all these years, don't you, she is really pitiful." ”
The man sighed deeply, "Can I look at these paintings of my wife?" ”
"Time is a little tight today, why don't you go to the Artists Association with me first, and when the matter is over, I will naturally give you this USB flash drive."
"You have doubts about me too?"
"Not really." For some reason, Wu Xi suddenly became a little nervous.
Li Shen smiled faintly: "Just kidding, in fact, I have been in the same pain as Zhong Ming all these years, and we were still talking about immigration a few days ago, hoping to leave here." He got dressed, "Let's go, I'll go with you." ”
"Did you say you were still talking about immigration the other day?" Wu Xi stood still.
"Yes, it's just that Zhong Ming can't let go of her family in China, so she doesn't want to go out now, what's wrong with you, didn't you say you were going to the association?"
"I suddenly remembered that I still have a bit of a rush today, so I'll go and finish my work before I come to you." After Wu Xi finished speaking, she walked a few steps quickly to the side of the elevator and pressed the down button, but just as the elevator door was about to open, her two arms were suddenly clamped backwards, and then, the USB flash drive in her hand was easily taken by the man.
"You ......" Wu Xi turned his head to look at the man who still couldn't see the ups and downs of emotions.
The man let go of her hand, "I didn't expect her to keep such a trick, it's really dangerous." He looked at Wu Xi, "You don't have to look at me like a bedbug, in our industry, talent is a scarce resource, but it is the most important quality, I was forced by my mother to learn to paint since I was a child, but now I am in my thirties, and I still have nothing to do." Since I was a child, I don't know how many times I've been scolded and beaten, but if it doesn't work, it won't work, and I can't draw it if I am killed. Do you know what it's like to be despised by your own mother? It was worse than death, but then I saw it, because I realized that my mother was no better than me, she was just an embroidered pillow with an associate professor's title on her head. ”
"So you kidnap Zhong Ming's talent, what's the difference between you and a robber, no, she is your wife, you are worse than a robber."
The elevator door opened at the right time, and Wu Xi was almost pushed into the elevator by Li Shen, "Whatever you think, but thank you for sending this thing to me, with this, I don't have to reach out to Hu Yanqi for money anymore." ”
The elevator door closed, Wu Xi stood alone in the elevator for a long time, lowered his head and smiled sadly: "Zhong Ming, it turns out that the person you want to hide from is not only Hu Yanqi, but also your husband, it was these two demons in human skin who forced you to death, right?" But why do you turn into a resentful spirit and don't want to seek revenge on them? Do you still have old feelings for them? ”
"Ding-dong." The elevator stopped suddenly, and a man walked in and stood next to Wu Xi. Wu Xi subconsciously leaned to the side, leaving a little space between the two.
The man turned to look at her, "I'm sorry for the offense." ”
Wu Xi felt that she was a little too much, such a subconscious action might make others feel unhappy, so she quickly looked at him with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
She was a little stunned, the man in front of her looked very ...... Charming, that's right, that's the word, he is different from Xu Xing's good-looking, he exudes a breathtaking smell all over his body, which makes people reluctant to take their eyes off him after seeing it.
"Miss, do I have something dirty on my face?"
