Chapter 18 chapter18
When Ningxia woke up, her head hurt a little, she rubbed her head and sat up, the velvet quilt slid down her chest, and when she opened her eyes, she found that she was still wearing yesterday's clothes.
Memories hit her mind little by little, and she remembered that she seemed to have quarreled with someone last night, and she didn't give him the slightest chance to refute it, and she was very angry.
Who is it?
She put on her slippers and found a change of clothes from the changing room to go to the bathroom to take a bath, hot water gushed down from the shower, her long hair was wet, her skin was watery, and her thoughts were suddenly opened.
There were large clouds of water vapor condensed in the narrow field of vision, and she rubbed the back of her neck and looked up and laughed, it turned out to be him!
"You're awake."
After washing up, she went downstairs, turned right to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat, and Jiang Yiran's cool voice behind her startled her.
Ningxia turned around, shocked, "Why didn't you go to the store?" β
"If I have to go to the store every day, what do I do with my employees? Treat them to idle meals out of your own pocket? Jiang Yiran crossed his arms and walked towards the garden, "There is pumpkin porridge in the pot, do it yourself." β
Ningxia Nuzui did not comment.
The pumpkin porridge is still warm and hot, Ningxia holds a bowl, and is about to sprinkle sugar, Jiang Yiran's voice floats over, "Your daily sugar intake exceeds the standard, do you want to have diabetes?" β
Ningxia ignored it, but added a little sugar and stirred it according to her personal preference, she held the bowl and blew it, and sat in the restaurant to fill the five internal organs temple one by one.
After a while, the chair directly opposite was pulled away, and Jiang Yiran sat in with an uncertain expression.
Ning Xia didn't even raise his head, knowing that he would not let her go.
"Do you know how you got back last night?" He sat crookedly, one elbow resting on the table, tapping the edge of the table for a while, and the other hand resting on his upturned Erlang leg, in the posture of a yuppie policeman torturing a girl who had lost her footing.
Ningxia pinched the porcelain spoon and knocked it on the mouth of the bowl, pretending to throw the question back, "How did you come back?" β
Jiang Yiran snorted in his nose, "I was carried back like a dead corpse." β
ββ¦β¦β
With the spoon down, Ningxia raised his head, "I said, can't you say something nice early in the morning?" β
"It's called early in the morning, too?" Jiang Yiran nodded at the beautiful sky outside the window, the sun was shining, and it was very brilliant. Then, he pointed to her bowl, "What I said is not good, then I said that there is porridge in the pot, don't go and serve it." β
Ningxia inhaled slowly, and said in his heart, I don't care about you.
She continued to drink porridge, Jiang Yiran squinted at her, "When did you hook up with the person opposite?" Have you seen the right eye, or are you still in the observation period? Except for Ye Xiaofan's cousin, how much do you know about the family situation? Is the house his own or rented? Annual salary, savings ......"
"Jiang Yiran!" Ningxia couldn't help but interrupt, "You can guess that last night was just a coincidence if you think about it with your toes, okay?" β
Jiang Yiran leaned back and sneered, "Yo, it turns out that you know everything." β
"......" he did it on purpose!
Ningxia buried his head in drinking porridge and didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.
He knocked on the table and warned, "Don't expect me to open the door for you when you're drunk outside in the future." β
"Okay, then I'll go to the hotel to open a room."
"Huh." He laughed, "That also depends on whether the man across from you is willing to have sex with you." β
ββ¦β¦β

After relaxing for two days, she was going to report to Vance, and Lu Xiao promised to handle her formal employment and pay her salary according to the standard of an ordinary pastry chef in a pastry room. The treatment of five-star hotels is different, especially the five-star hotels that value pastry baking, which are nearly twice as high as Jiang Yiran's willingness to pay her monthly salary.
Ningxia brushed the bowl and went back to the house to surf the Internet.
Seeing Ye Xiaofan online, he took the initiative to knock her: What are you doing?
After waiting for a while and there was no movement, she forked the window and looked for her mobile phone to see what new songs Ye Xiaofan had posted recently. After going around the bedroom to no avail, I patted my head and remembered that my phone was in my bag. But what about the bag?
She ran downstairs to find Jiang Yiran, and deliberately paid attention to the living room before asking, "Have you seen my bag?" The white one, my phone and wallet are in it. β
Jiang Yiran looked at her fixedly for a few seconds, and raised his eyebrows, "This is a new posture for money?" β
Ningxia glared, "I'm serious!" β
"Oh." He lowered his head and dipped the mold he was going to use in cold water, "No." β
Ningxia despised his attitude of not caring about himself, and saw his mobile phone in a moisture-proof basket next to him, and picked it up without saying a word, and hurriedly dialed out his mobile phone number.
Jiang Yiran glanced at her, let her, and said nothing.
It kept ringing, and she listened intently, and ran upstairs and downstairs without hearing the bell. She stood at the top of the stairs and continued to dial with perseverance. It shouldn't have been stolen if it wasn't turned off, but if it was picked up by someone, then why didn't he pick it up?
Ningxia closed her eyes and recalled, did she miss some clips from last night?
Jiang Yiran opened the refrigerator door with his things, and reminded her when he passed by: "When he came back with you, you didn't have a bag on you." β
Ningxia's head was big, and he thought to himself, "Where will that bag go?" β
"I'll give you a JianyΓ¬." He closed the door and turned, "Go and ask the man across from you where he met you last night, and if he saw your backpack when he met you." I promise, it's much more useful than you standing here with a stupid head. β
Ningxia ignored him, of course she knew it would be useful, but the point was that she didn't want to go.
I scolded people......
After hesitating for a while, she couldn't bear to be anxious, so she had to grit her teeth and go out to ring the doorbell on the other side.
After not seeing anyone open the door for a long time, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Her words and deeds last night are still imprinted in her mind, and her principle of doing things has always been "leave a line in front of people, and see each other in the future", now it's okay, all the threads buried in front of this man are in vain.
How can we meet each other well?
She sighed in her heart, the matter was decided, and it was useless to regret it.
He was able to send her home safe and sound, and he should be a tolerant and generous person...... Right?
Ningxia went home and got a parasol and was about to go out again, Jiang Yiran stopped her, "Go out and look for it like a headless fly?" He glanced at the high sun and said in a rewarding tone, "Come on, now that I've graduated, I'll change your phone." β
His kindness Ningxia understood, but this was really not a matter of welcoming the new and saying goodbye to the old, she couldn't find her uncomfortable, and she couldn't sit still with a stone in her heart.
She rushed out in a daze, Jiang Yiran poured the stirred fruit syrup on the cold cake on the plate, shook her head and hummed, "Obsessive-compulsive disorder." β
Ningxia held an umbrella and walked along the way home, she remembered that she stayed on a bench last night, but there were so many benches on this road that ten fingers could not be counted, which one was she sitting and resting?
The people who live in the Chenliang Mansion are not poor, and the entry and exit are extremely strict, will they be picked up by the residents and sent to the security room?
Of course, it is also possible that she lost her bag before returning to the Tatsura Mansion.
The sun was scorching overhead, and the strong sunlight shone down obliquely, and it didn't take long for Ningxia to sweat.
Walked to the main entrance, asked the doorman and security guard, and saw the other party shaking his head, she finally gave up.
Jiang Yiran heard the sound, and his voice raised, "It's in vain, right?" β
Ningxia had a fine layer of sweat on her face, she walked to the kitchen, sat on the high swivel chair, and lay on the kitchen table and wailed listlessly: "There are at least five hundred yuan in the wallet......"
The cold fruit syrup parfait was pushed over by Jiang Yiran, "Don't howl, you should have bought my banana buffy for five hundred." β
ββ¦β¦ You're robbing! β
That being said, I'm in a much better mood.
***
Ningxia only saw Ye Xiaofan's reply after returning to the room.
She kept swiping the screen: Is the hotel you went to before called Vance Nian?
Ningxia typing keyboard: yes, you seem to be excited?
She was right in front of the computer, and this time she was quick to get back: of course excited! My sister got engaged next month, and the engagement banquet was held in the year of Vance!
Forgive her for not being able to turn the corner : are you excited about your sister's engagement, or are you excited about the engagement banquet in Vance?
Ye Xiaofan: My sister has been with her boyfriend since her freshman year, and the engagement is just a formality. I'm excited that I finally have the opportunity to meet the Lu Xiao you said!
Ningxia Khan: What is there to see about her?
Ye Xiaofan: I just want to see how big the legendary vase with no chest and no brain is, so that I can squeeze my brain down!
Ningxia:......
Ye Xiaofan: In other words, my sister also has big breasts, but she is a smart student, she stayed in the United States in her junior year, and later continued to study for a master's degree.
Ningxia: Cousin?
Ye Xiaofan: No, I am not related by blood. Let's put it this way, my uncle married her mother, so she became my sister.
Isn't her uncle her eldest brother's father?
Ye Xiaofan: Hey, what about people?
Ningxia: Yes.
Ye Xiaofan: Why didn't you answer the phone call last night?
Ningxia: What time did you get a hit?
Ye Xiaofan: It's around ten o'clock, what's wrong?
So she was gone before ten o'clock.
Ningxia: I lost my phone, leave me a message if you have something, I'll see it at night.
Ye Xiaofan: Stolen?
Ningxia: I don't know.
Ye Xiaofan: Okay, I just wanted to tell you, I'll go to find you in two days.
Ningxia: Don't go, I'm not there. The day after tomorrow will be in Vance for a while.
Ye Xiaofan: No, you lost the bet again?
Ningxia:......

In the evening, there was a must-attend dinner about Hanfei's next development project.
Ye Zhaojue drank some wine and sat in the car with his eyes closed.
The driver, Xiao Kai, drove very smoothly, and the quiet carriage couldn't even smell his breath.
Father Ye's phone came in, he picked it up, and the voice from the radio waves was mixed with a hint of helplessness, "If it weren't for your second uncle suing me, I wouldn't have known that you had acquired another overseas hotel." β
Ye Zhaojue rubbed his eyebrows and gave a vague "um".
Father Ye said, "Where is it this time?" β
"Spain." He looked out the window and saw the city's iconic attraction, the Shou Pagoda. The pass is 70 meters high, and it was repaired and strengthened in the later stage, covering up the remaining bullet marks on the tower.
"If there's anything you haven't told me, let's talk about it now."
He thought for a moment, "Some time ago, I sent three teams to the United States to investigate and negotiate. After a pause, he thought of something and added, "Oh, it's a mixed-use project with residential and supporting commercial. β
Father Ye didn't agree, "Ah Jue, you play too much and be careful that you can't get it back." β
He smiled, "Dad, I still have this bit of confidence." β
The other end was silent for a moment, and sighed with a smile: "Dad, I'm old, not as ambitious as you." β
At this time, the car passed by Vance Nian, the hotel building built in imitation of Shou Ji Pagoda was brightly lit, and the roadside lights reflected Ye Zhaojue's silent face through the car window glass, and his voice was slightly lower, as if it were true and false: "Actually, what I want to buy the most is Vance Year." β
Father Ye was stunned, and his voice sank, "That's Lao Lu's life's work, don't give me this idea, if you have it, you have to stop me immediately!" β
He smiled, "Don't worry, I'm talking about fun." β
The car suddenly turned, the lights drifted away, and his smiling expression disappeared into the darkness.
