After An Jing said hello to Gu Xiluo, she stepped upstairs, took out the key to open the door, she reached out and touched the switch in the living room and pressed it, but the light did not turn on as usual. An Jing was slightly surprised, and then pressed the switch a few more times, but there was no response either.
An Jing took advantage of the light of the mobile phone screen, walked in, and tried the bedroom light, but it was also not on.
When she first entered the community, she saw that there were lights on in other houses, so it was not a collective power outage, could it be that there was no electricity bill
Just thinking about it, the mobile phone in his hand vibrate, and An Jing saw that it was Gu Xiluo's phone, and quickly connected it.
"Hey, Tin Luo."
Gu Xiluo said, "What's the matter, haven't you arrived home yet?"
An Jing stood in the dark living room, hesitated for a moment, and replied loudly, "It may be that there is a power outage in the house, I have already arrived home, you don't have to worry about me." β
Gu Xiluo said, "I see that other homes have electricity, is your house tripping?"
An Jing forgot that it might be the reason for the trip, and she replied as she walked towards the door, "Maybe, I'll take a look, you go first, I didn't."
Before I could finish the word, it turned into a scream. Because An Jing didn't close the outside door, he vaguely saw a figure running to the top floor.
Gu Xiluo appeared at the door and said to An Jing, who was screaming and retreating, "It's me." β
An Jing heard a familiar voice, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, her scalp was not scared just now.
"Why did you come up so quickly"
This is the top floor, An Jing was surprised how Gu Xiluo came up in more than ten seconds.
Gu Xiluo replied in a calm voice, "Long legs." β
After that, before An Jing could laugh at him, Gu Xiluo Jing asked himself, "Where is your family's insurance?"
An Jing sighed, then illuminated it with his mobile phone, and took Gu Xiluo to the electric gate safe.
Gu Xiluo checked it and replied loudly, "It's not tripping, it's estimated that there is no electricity bill." β
An Jing was very calm, "It's okay, there are candles in the house, I'll just light the wax in a while." β
Gu Xiluo looked at An Jingdao and said, "Do you want to read it at night?"
An Jing really thought about this, she replied with a light smile, "I just don't have an electric drill, otherwise I would have chiseled the wall and borrowed it." β
Gu Xiluo said, "Let's go, don't stay at home tonight." β
"Ah" An Jing looked surprised, "Where are you going to live?"
Gu Xiluo said, "Go to the hotel." β
"No, I"
"There is no electricity in the house, how do you take a bath"
"I'm fine with cold water"
"Don't be verbose, hurry up and get a set of clothes, you can't live in the house tonight."
An Jing didn't want to trouble Gu Xiluo, but he was resolute, and in fact, she was a little scared in her heart, so she went to the bedroom to prepare things and left the house with Gu Xiluo.
Because this is an old community, and there are no decent hotels nearby, Gu Xiluo simply drove An Jing to the bustling place in the center of the city.
The car stopped in front of the PPLE Hotel, An Jing sat in the car and looked out, and quickly said, "I don't live here, it's so expensive for one night here." β
Gu Xiluo said while unbuckling his seat belt, "You are a future star in the design industry, and you are also very valuable, let's go, get out of the car quickly." β
Gu Xiluo moved quickly, and as he spoke, he had already pushed the car door down, An Jingxin sighed secretly, and then got out of the car as well.
The two walked side by side to the hotel, Gu Xiluo went to the front desk, and An Jing followed him. After he got the room card, he walked to the elevator with An Jing, "Sleep well here tonight, I'll pick you up tomorrow, and then you give me the electricity card, and I'll help you pay the money." β
An Jing subconsciously said, "No need, I'll just hand it over myself." β
Gu Xiluo said, "You are so busy every day that your feet don't touch the ground, when will you have time to hand it in?"
An Jing's heart was weak, and he pursed his lips.
The two of them stood at the entrance of the elevator, and it happened that the elevator showed that it had reached the second floor, so they simply stood next to it and waited.
After a while, only a jingling sound was heard, and the elevator door opened. A beautiful woman with blonde hair and deep facial features stepped out of the elevator, An Jing had no intention of glancing at her, and for a moment, both of them were surprised.
The woman who came out of the elevator was Rena, Rena and An Jing had met, and both of them remembered each other's looks so well that they could recognize them at a glance.
After a moment of passing by, the two couldn't help but tilt their heads slightly and glanced at each other.
Gu Xiluo also recognized Rena, but the three of them chose to remain silent at the same time. After all, there is not much to say.
Rena walked out of the elevator, and An Jing walked in with Gu Xiluo. A few seconds later, the elevator door closed, and An Jing saw his tense face from the light of the elevator wall.
If Rena appears in this hotel, it is not a proof that Ji Chendong also lives here
As soon as he thought of this, An Jing felt the urge to fidget and leave.
The elevator stopped on the sixteenth floor, Gu Xiluo and An Jing stepped out of the elevator, and the two came to a guest room, Gu Xiluo just helped An Jing insert the room card on the wall at the door, he didn't even enter the door, and said to her directly, "It's safe to live here, you rest early, I'll go first." β
An Jing subconsciously said, "You don't come in and sit"
When Gu Xiluo heard this, he hooked the corners of his lips and replied with a light smile, "This is a hotel, is it appropriate for me to come in and sit?"
An Jing realized it later, paused for a moment, and then smiled a little helplessly, "The clear ones are self-purifying, and besides, we don't need to explain to everyone." β
An Jingneng has such an idea, I have to say, this is a very big progress, you must know that she was very conservative earlier, for fear that others would misunderstand.
But in other words, it's also a kind of broken jar and broken table. Now that the dust has fallen between An Jing and Ji Chendong, it is destined to go half of the road to the sky, what else does she have to take care of
Gu Xiluo is such a smart person, he can probably guess what she thinks just by looking at An Jing.
His lips opened, and he replied with a light smile, "I'm not going in, you rest early, I'll come and pick you up tomorrow." β
An Jing responded, the two said goodbye, and Gu Xiluo took the elevator downstairs.
Rena sat in the car parked on the side of the street, and it didn't take long to see Gu Xiluo coming out of the hotel, her eyes were a little meaningful, she started the car and drove away.
This night, An Jing didn't read, lay on the bed, tossing and turning until dawn. Because as soon as she thought that Ji Chendong and Rena were living in a certain room in this hotel, she felt uncomfortable, let alone sleeping, and it was difficult to even close her eyes.
I didn't sleep all night, and at six o'clock the next morning, An Jing got up from bed, cleaned up and left the hotel.
Next to the hotel is a second-floor cafΓ©, An Jing bought a cup of coffee, sat by the window on the second floor, took out books and notes and read while drinking.
She didn't take it seriously, or rather, she wasn't completely distracted. So when a burgundy Maserati stopped in front of the PPE Hotel, she was subconsciously attracted to attention.
Sitting on the second floor, An Jing looked down condescendingly. I saw the driver's door open, and a tall woman with blond hair came out of it, An Jing frowned slightly, it was Rena.
After Rena got out of the car, she quickly walked around the car and ran to the passenger seat, opened the passenger door, and she bent down to help a drunk man from the car.
Although separated by a distance, Ji Chendong's figure, An Jing will not be mistaken.
Rena stepped on high heels, put Ji Chendong's arm on her shoulder, and helped him walk towards the hotel. Ji Chendong shook his head step by step, hanging his head, not knowing how much wine he drank.
An Jing's heart seemed to be pulled out alive and clenched tightly, and she didn't dare to gasp when she grabbed it. Because if you move slightly, it will involve all the internal organs, and it will be painful and painful.
I just didn't want to live in the same hotel as Ji Chendong and Rena, and I was afraid that Gu Xiluo wouldn't be able to pick her up when the time came, so An Jing would come here early in the morning to read a book. But God just likes to play tricks on mortals, as if seeing the heart-rending pain of these salient beings, he will feel that the Creator is so amazing.
There is no way to hide, there is no way to avoid it. Ji Chendong entered An Jing's eyes strongly. From the street to the entrance of the hotel, it was a short distance of more than ten meters, and he walked very slowly because he drank too much. An Jing stared at him unblinkingly, staring until his eyes were red and tears were rolling in his eyes.
After being separated for so long, the two have met only a few times, but every time they meet, he always intentionally or unintentionally hurts her.
When Ji Chendong and Rena's figures disappeared from An Jing's sight, she stiffened her neck, and she couldn't look too far.
Lowering her gaze slightly, she frowned slightly, and tears fell like this.
At 7:40 in the morning, Gu Xiluo's car was parked downstairs in the hotel, and as soon as he got out of the car, he heard someone behind him shouting to him, "Xiluo." β
Gu Xiluo turned his head to look, only to see An Jing walking out from behind a viewing tree more than one person high, no wonder he didn't see it when he first came.
"Why are you here" Gu Xiluo asked as he walked towards An Jing.
An Jing's beautiful face showed a good-looking smile. Lifting the bag in her hand, she smiled and replied, "I bought coffee." β
The two got into the car, and Gu Xiluo handed An Jing the lunch box in the back seat, which was her breakfast, which he had been preparing by himself these days.
An Jing looked at the food that was still warm in the lunch box, and suddenly his throat choked. Holding back her tears, she opened the lid of the box with a smile, sat directly in the passenger seat and began to eat.
She rarely did this, so that Gu Xiluo couldn't help but look sideways and asked softly, "Are you hungry?"
An Jing gulped it and nodded back, "I've been addicted to eating what you made recently, and I can't stand it when I smell it." β
Gu Xiluo gently hooked the corners of his lips, but said as if unintentionally, "I didn't do it, my aunt did it." β
An Jing didn't look up, she stuffed a lot of things in her mouth, and said vaguely, "Xi Luo, you have time to help me flush the electricity bill today, I don't want to stay in a hotel." β
