Chapter Twenty-Nine: Drunken Photos

He Fei was invited by the Rao'an County Federation of Literary and Art Circles to hold an art exhibition in the local area, because it was close to Raoxing County, so Tan Zhijiang Chenghui and others came to cheer together, Jiang Xueyun called Gu Xiaojing and asked her to come over to see the art exhibition if she was fine.

There were a lot of people at the exhibition, painters and calligraphers from surrounding counties and cities, local cultural figures, and some businessmen, and Gu Xiaojing also called a few friends from Rao'an County to come over to cheer. At the exhibition, He Fei's small eight-foot landscape "Beautiful Mountains and Rivers" was photographed by a business boss on the spot and sold on the spot at a price of 30,000 yuan. Gu Xiaojing was really taken aback. In the past, she only knew that the price of He Fei's paintings had risen quickly, and she knew that the price was not low, but seeing people take out three dozen hundred-yuan bills and hand them to Jiang Xueyun on the spot, Gu Xiaojing was really taken aback. She felt a strong imbalance in her heart, she was really more popular than people, she worked hard for a month, greeted customers as God with a smile, said all the good things, and how much money could she make, Chen Zhigang was sweating by the stove and turning over the pot and stir-frying, so hot that his hands and arms were blistered, and a month was nothing more than 3,000 yuan, and why not a painting was easily sold for 30,000 yuan, and everyone was still respected and admired.

At noon that day, the person who bought the painting invited He Fei to dinner, and Gu Xiaojing also participated. During the banquet, everyone's reverence for He Fei made Gu Xiaojing look at He Fei again.

In the afternoon, Jiang Xueyun's unit had something to do, Tan Zhijiang drove Jiang Xueyun and Cheng Hui back with him, and he stayed in Rao'an alone. Because there was an art exhibition the next day, why didn't he go back.

In the evening, He Fei was reluctant to accept other people's invitations, he wanted to calm down, and wanted to find an acquaintance to eat simply, so he asked Gu Xiaojing and the two of them to eat something together. Gu Xiaojing happened to be depressed in her heart, and she also wanted to talk to someone, so she went out to eat with He Fei.

He Fei's painting exhibition was successful, and he was happy, Gu Xiaojing was not happy these days, and she just wanted to talk to He Fei. The two of them had different moods and drank a lot of wine. They talked about An Dong, speaking of An Dong, why didn't he fall into a deep longing, at home, he was afraid of Jiang Xueyun's feelings, although sometimes he missed An Dong, but he also tried not to show it, and now there were two people left, he and Gu Xiaojing, he felt relaxed in his heart, so he talked to Gu Xiaojing without scruples.

The emotions suppressed in the bottom of my heart are like grass growing vigorously when it meets spring, just like the river that opens the floodgates and pours out in an instant, after all, An Dong has also been Gu Xiaojing's friend for many years, He Fei and Gu Xiaojing have a common topic, they talked about Gu Xiaojing's marriage from An Dong again, Gu Xiaojing told He Fei that no matter how Chen Zhigang and Ye Shuilian made too much trouble, she firmly remembered one thing in her heart, for the sake of her son and this family, she would resolutely not divorce and would not let the slanted woman succeed. He was noncommittal, he missed An Dong in his heart, and unconsciously got drunk. Although Gu Xiaojing also drank too much, she still understood in her heart, so she helped He Fei to walk towards the hotel where he lived.

At that time, Ye Shuilian just got off work, and she originally wanted to ask Chen Zhigang to go to her, but because Gu Xiaojing had just had a fight with her a few days ago, the two of them had some scruples in their hearts, Chen Zhigang thought about it and said, his mother will go back to his hometown tomorrow, his uncle in his hometown is sick, and his mother said to go back and stay for a few days. He said that when his mother left, he would secretly take Ye Shuilian over, Gu Xiaojing would never have thought that he would take Ye Shuilian over, Ye Shuilian was happy in her heart. She felt that this was one step closer to Chen Zhigang, which meant that she had a place in Chen Zhigang's heart, otherwise how could Chen Zhigang lead her to his mother's house, so she happily agreed.

Ye Shuilian rode her bicycle to the rented house, it was already ten o'clock, and there were very few pedestrians on the street, although Ye Shuilian had only seen Gu Xiaojing twice, but this woman was not an ordinary woman for her, so she firmly remembered Gu Xiaojing in her heart.

In the distance, she saw a man and a woman snuggling closely, holding each other crookedly, she knew that these were two drunks, she often saw such people in the hotel, watching the two people walking crookedly, she felt very interesting, and unconsciously looked at it twice. But she suddenly felt that the figure was too familiar, she took a closer look and found that the woman was Gu Xiaojing. At ten o'clock in the evening, Gu Xiaojing and a man were pulling and snuggling with each other, what would happen if Chen Zhigang saw such a scene? Thinking like this, she sped up her ride, and there happened to be a corner in front of her, she hurriedly rode over and stopped, at this time He Fei and Gu Xiaojing just walked to the gate of Wanfulong Hotel. Wanfulong Hotel is the largest hotel in Rao'an County, four-star, the lights at the door are brilliant, Ye Shuilian can clearly see the faces of the two people, so she took out her mobile phone and took four or five photos of the two people, He Fei and Gu Xiaojing drank too much, and didn't care, the security guard on the side found a burst of bright light, and walked over to Ye Shuilian, Ye Shuilian saw this, and quickly rode a bicycle and ran.

Ye Shuilian returned home and hurriedly called Chen Zhigang, she said that Gu Xiaojing drank crookedly with a man, and snuggled up to each other into the Wanfulong Hotel, Chen Zhigang didn't believe it, Ye Shuilian sent the photo to Chen Zhigang, Chen Zhigang saw it, and he was angry. He picked up the phone and called Gu Xiaojing and asked where Gu Xiaojing was, Gu Xiaojing picked up the phone in a daze and told him that he was at home. Chen Zhigang didn't believe it, so he got on a motorcycle and went home. When he arrived at home, he took out the key to open the door, and saw that Gu Xiaojing didn't take off her clothes alone, and slept on the bed with her clothes. Chen Zhigang wanted to call Gu Xiaojing up and ask what was going on, but he looked at his watch, and it was only ten minutes before and after Ye Shuilian called him, and he knew that Gu Xiaojing should have nothing to do with that man, so he changed his mind, turned around and went out again.

Gu Xiaojing actually heard that Chen Zhigang was back, but she drank so much wine and didn't want to move, she had already seen Chen Zhigang from her eyes, but she saw that Chen Zhigang didn't do anything and went out again. She felt stilted, she didn't call Chen Zhigang directly, but called her mother-in-law.

Mom, what are you doing? Although Gu Xiaojing drank a lot of wine, she was still very sober when she talked to her mother-in-law.

I just washed my feet and want to sleep, is there anything wrong Xiaojing? Her mother-in-law was just lying in bed, and she rarely answered Gu Xiaojing's calls at this time, thinking that something must be wrong.

It's okay Mom, by the way, is Zhigang back? Gu Xiaojing asked unhurriedly.

I'm back, I've just gone out again, and I'll be back in a while. The mother-in-law was talking to her, and she heard a knock at the door, so she continued, "Oh, come back, the door is ringing."

Oh, that's fine. Mom, you have nothing to do and rest early. Gu Xiaojing said, ready to hang up the phone.

By the way, Xiaojing, I bought a lot of dragon fruit and vegetables, I will go back to my hometown tomorrow to see your uncle, you come over and get some back to eat, Zhigang will not go home to eat, don't spoil it. The mother-in-law remembered that she had sold so many vegetables, and she was worried that she would spoil it if she was not at home, Gu Xiaojing called her, and she remembered it, so she quickly told her.

Okay, tomorrow, I'll go get it tomorrow. Gu Xiaojing said, put down the phone and went to sleep.

For a whole night, Ye Shuilian looked at those photos over and over again, she felt that the man seemed to have seen it somewhere, but she couldn't remember, she felt that if she knew who that man was, she would know the relationship between Gu Xiaojing and that person in more detail, if Gu Xiaojing's relationship with that person was the same as her and Chen Zhigang, then she would win, thinking of this, Ye Shuilian was pleasantly surprised, and she hurriedly saved those photos. In order not to lose it, she also saved a copy of the QQ space album, of course, others can't see it, and a password is required to access it.

After saving the photo, Ye Shuilian slept with a satisfied smile.

Chen Zhigang looked at those photos, and the more he looked at them, the more angry he became, but he calculated that Ye Shuilian called him, and when it was time for him to go home, Gu Xiaojing didn't have time to go to the hotel with the man. Besides, he saw Gu Xiaoqing sleeping at home alone, which means that the two of them are just ordinary drunk and should not have a special relationship, he looked at those photos and got angry, so he deleted the photos and fell asleep alone.
