Section 142 Goodbye
The rain was falling, and the café next door to the supermarket was filled with soft music.
"I just arrived here, and the jet lag hasn't been able to adjust yet, so I wanted to rest first, and then look for you tomorrow when I dress up, but I didn't expect to meet like this." Looking at Jiaming, the blonde-haired Marilyn said with a smile, her voice as soft as ever, like a woman in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. Of course, it is the ancient Jiangnan, not the modern Jiangnan.
"According to our time here, you should have a ticket at seven o'clock last night, arrived in Yanjing in the morning, and then transferred over and booked a VIP room at Huajing Hotel. This time, I guess I came with Mr. Joseph. ”
After taking a sip of fresh orange juice, Jiaming casually said their itinerary, Marilyn's eyes widened in surprise, and there was a heartfelt smile in her eyes: "Well, you...... Have been watching us? ”
"It's almost the 21st century, and computers can do a lot of things, especially in the United States...... You know? Your affairs, the FBI has been recorded, because the results of your last trip are really scary, this time you are coming to China, it is also a big deal, they reported it to the above as soon as possible. By the way, I've even seen photos of Heidi winning several singing competitions. ”
As he spoke, he reached out and stroked Heidi, who was eating ice cream on the side, as a mixed-race child, the little girl did not inherit her mother's blonde hair, but black hair like satin, which felt very tactile to the touch. Feeling the palm of her hand pressed up, the little girl shook her head impatiently, stuffed her cheeks with ice cream, and glared at him viciously.
"No manners! A gentleman doesn't touch a lady's hair! ”
Heidi was angry, and the consequences were severe.
It's a pity that no one in front of him seems to have enough understanding of this serious surname, Jiaming just smiled, and his palm was still very uninterestingly resting on the little head that was trying to please him, and Marilyn looked around vigilantly a few times, and said worriedly: "No...... Got you in trouble, right? ”
"Don't worry, if it's in the United States, there may be a possibility of being monitored, but this is China, the FBI is not so powerful, and the most important thing is that I am just a high school student." Having touched the little girl's hair, Jiaming patted her pink cheek hatefully again, pinched it before letting go, making Heidi puff up. Damn, I haven't seen him for three years, and he has become so hateful! It's not gentle at all, and I often think about him in the United States, hum!
After listening to Jiaming's words, Marilyn also put her mind at ease, looked at the small friction between him and Heidi, and said with a smile: "Heidi often talks to me about you in New York, she misses you very much, of course...... Me too. ”
"Nonsense, I didn't! I just want to...... China's marshmallows! Heidi retorted angrily, the two next to her both laughed, and after a pause, Marilyn changed the language from English to Chinese, obviously not wanting Heidi to know these contents: "After returning to China, I participated in some family affairs, of course, it has nothing to do with the mafia, I am in contact with some relatively clean business in the family, because these things were basically taken care of by Joseph before, so I served as one of his assistants, well, I think you also know this." ”
"Of course, you've done a great job in the past two years."
Marilyn smiled, reached out and stroked a strand of blonde hair on her forehead, and raised her eyebrows: "That...... I think you'll know too, Joseph is courting me, family...... Well, I mean my father's side, who also wants me to marry him, of course, just suggests ......"
After she finished speaking, she looked at Jiaming with a smile in her eyes, but saw Jiaming take a sip of fresh orange juice, and nodded with a smile: "On the file of the FBI, the evaluation given to that Mr. Joseph is very high, your father came to pick you up three years ago, and the man who followed him should be him, which shows that his position in your family is also very high, and I probably know that as early as seven or eight years ago, he has begun to pursue you, it seems that he is a good man, if you like ......"
"I don't like it." With a gentle roll of his eyes, "I want to tell you this myself." ”
Jia Ming leaned back in his chair: "Did you decide to think about that man until you died?" It's understandable, but I find it boring. ”
"I forgot about Don." Marilyn stated with a smile, "Now I just want to watch Heidi grow up quietly, and ...... I have made promises to you. ”
"Oh." Jia Ming whistled, and the promise he naturally remembered, "Whether you are mine or not, I will always be yours", "As long as you are in need, I will come to you immediately" and so on, although he doesn't care very much, but as a man, in the face of the mature and beautiful woman in front of him, he will still feel an indescribable great temptation. At this time, Heidi protested: "No manners! I have just started to learn Chinese, and you are not allowed to speak in Chinese. ”
Marilyn shrugged her shoulders, smiled apologetically, and turned back to English: "In order not to arouse suspicion in the past two years, we don't know what you are doing, and we don't know where you live now. Gu, how do we find you? ”
Hearing this, Heidi stopped venting at the ice cream, put down the spoon and said, "Aren't you going to the hotel with us?" Then Mommy and I should go to your house, okay? ”
When the two were hunted down three years ago, they lived in the house left by Jiaming's parents for nearly a month, but at present, the mother and daughter can also be regarded as the focus of attention, so it is naturally impossible to live there again, Marilyn explained, Jiaming looked at the time, and also smiled: "That's not good, and it's late now, I should go back, so let's sleep well tonight, and I'll go to you tomorrow, okay?" ”
"You...... But we've only seen each other for a while......" Heidi looked at him, her eyes almost reddening, and she had been sitting for so long, patronizing her anger, "You must not deceive people! Although Marilyn just nodded and didn't speak, her eyes were still fixed on Jia Ming's body, and her expression was complicated.
A simple meeting will lead to separation, and the hearts of mother and daughter may not be very comfortable. Saying goodbye at the door of the café, the mother and daughter took three steps with umbrellas and turned around to the big hotel not far away, Jiaming got on the bus and returned in the direction of the Sacred Heart Academy.
It was already six o'clock in the evening, and it was getting dark, and it was estimated that Sha Sha had already cooked at home, but Ling Jing was rehearsing at school these days, and she had to cook the dishes herself. When I walked downstairs, the door of the video game room was crowded with people, on one side were young residents led by Ah Qiang and Ah Shui, and on the other side were more than a dozen members of the Yongsheng Gang, scolding and scolding each other, completely blocking the staircase, Jia Ming sighed, and began to separate the crowd and walk inside: "Sorry, let let, let let, thank you, let me in, thank you......"
Carrying the two bags of things bought from the supermarket, Jiaming tossed with the crowd in front of him, and the two Yongsheng Gang people impatiently let go, but the third person was dancing and yelling, his right hand waved violently, and the back of his hand suddenly slapped on a bottle of glass jar that Jiaming bought, and immediately turned his head: "Let let ...... Let your mother, boy, what do you want to do? ”
"Uh, sorry......"
Jia Ming raised the bag in his hand, and was about to defend himself, when Ah Qiang roared: "What the fuck are you arrogant, do you know that good dogs don't get in the way!" That's where he lives...... Jiaming, you go in. I see which of you dares to touch him! ”
"yes, which of you the fuck dares to touch him......"
In the eyes of these people, Jia Ming has always been an honest man, and for a while those people in the rear roared, after all, the number of Yongsheng Gang was not enough, and he was so frightened that he was suffocated, Jia Ming carried the bag and took the opportunity to pass through the crowd: "Thank you, thank you......"
Go upstairs and open the door, and you can hear the two sides below are bluffing and roaring, most of these fights can't be fought, Yongsheng has few people in the gang, and they don't dare to hit people at will, and after all, there are many people here, and they don't want to make a fuss. When I walked in the door, I smelled the aroma of stir-frying, and Sasha was watching TV in the living room and asked, "What's wrong?" Coming back so late? Hehe, there's a lot of trouble down there, do you think there will be a fight? ”
"I'm sorry for the delay with two acquaintances. Oh, those fools below can't fight, don't worry. By the way, why did Ling Jing arrive home so early? Didn't rehearse today? While putting down the bag, Jiaming said with a smile.
"Shh Sha Sha rolled his eyes to the kitchen, stretched out his index finger to his mouth, and made a silent motion, "Don't talk about rehearsals, Lingjing is in a bad mood, hum, those guys from school...... And Tan Suyan, I have to find them tomorrow to theorize! ”
"What's wrong?"
Just wondering to herself, Ling Jing, who was wearing an apron, walked out of the kitchen with a vegetable bowl, looked up and smiled: "Jiaming is back, ready to eat." It's just that the smile is really a little reluctant, and after finishing speaking, he turned around and went back to the kitchen, and Jia Ming hurriedly followed.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing ......"
"Don't lie to anyone, tell me, I'll help you settle it, huh?"
Stretched out his hand to pull Lingjing's shoulder, but Lingjing still shook his head: "No need......" walked to the gas stove, and the body was hugged by Jiaming from behind: "I don't necessarily want to interfere with your **, but we are a family, although we are still young, I am your husband, you are my wife, I don't want to see you unhappy, tell me okay?" Is it because of the performance? ”
"I ...... Wow......" Listening to Jiaming's words, leaning on his shoulder, Ling Jing finally couldn't help crying in a low voice, and after a while, Fang whispered, "Jiaming, they said I didn't dance well, so they didn't let me jump...... Now the third grader, Tan Suyan is leading the dance, Jia Ming, I have been rehearsing for so long, and Miss Fang has personally said that I dance well, how can they be like this......"
"W-What? It's only been a little over a week before the show, and they actually changed? Frowning, Jiaming said in disbelief. Indeed, when it comes to dancing, Tan Suyan is indeed much more professional than Ling Jing, but from Jia Ming's point of view, Ling Jing has a Ling surname that others can't reach whether she plays the piano or dances, of course, maybe he will be selfish and not objective enough, but Ling Jing's efforts during this time are well known, and it is not a super professional performance based on dance, it is really incomprehensible that such a thing happened at this time.
Don't...... It was something that Dongfang Lu deliberately did because of the unsuccessful pursuit of Lingjing...... It's not like ah...... "It must be a relationship that Tan Suyan is secretly looking for." At the kitchen door, Sha Sha said hatefully, "She can't compare to me in the volleyball team, knowing that Ling Jing is my best friend, so I did it on purpose, it is said that the person in charge of this dance in the student council is very good with her, and the teacher in charge of the dance is also related to her, and the student council president called Dongfang Road also argued for Ling Jing, but in the end, I don't know why, I still made such a decision." It's so damnning, I'm going to have to ask tomorrow to see what they can say! ”
