Chapter 55: Pink Lip Prints
The streets were empty, the drizzle carried the chill against my bare arms and ankles, I forgot to put on my coat, I forgot to carry my bag, I couldn't get a taxi, I couldn't make phone calls, I had to walk back step by step.
I just knew that the road in South China is so long, the night is so cool, the night sky without stars is a layer of dense fog, every piece of masonry is painted with vicissitudes and history, fine lines, huge cracks, this is a province that often floods and earthquakes, I don't know how many lives it has taken, and how many people have been lost here.
Huo Yanchen is right, everyone has their own life, you can fight against life, but you can't completely disbelieve it, it's like being born to breastfeed, going out to get dressed, this is a trajectory, but I didn't think about it, I lost to the time of frustration again and again.
If I hadn't come today, I would have staggered with Mr. Ji, I wouldn't have known about him and Bai Jasmine so quickly, I wouldn't feel sad, and I wouldn't have lost my soul.
It's that I shouldn't position myself too high, how many people in this world are immersed in a night of indulgence, and who can get anything for it.
I don't know how long I walked, but I met a night driver who was pulling a job, and he asked me to get in the car, and I said I didn't have any money on me, and he said I'll give it to the place.
The night scared me, and I didn't want to go, so I pulled the car door and went up, leaning against the side, leaning my head against the window, looking at the night outside that was suddenly moving backwards, and the driver said, "You're lucky today, I didn't open all night, otherwise I really wouldn't pull you, how can I take a taxi without money." ”
I ignored him, my nose was so sore that I couldn't bear it, I endured and held back the tears or rolled a few times in my eyes and dripped down, I didn't want the driver to see it, I buried my face with my hands, I heard him ask me where I was going, I didn't want to say, "Master, you can drive anywhere, you can go anywhere." ”
The driver was taken aback by my words, and he immediately stepped on the brakes, "Girl, I'm not a bad person, I'm not a black car, I won't do anything illegal." ”
I just wanted to be quiet, cry quietly for a while, I closed my eyes and waved my hand, and gave him the address of the manor, and he obviously didn't believe it, "Where do you live?" Wealthy area. ”
I nodded, the driver hesitated for a moment, I couldn't figure out how penniless I would live in the community where the richest businessman in South China lived, he drove a little slow this time, seemed to be concentrating on recognizing the road, remember how to get back, I sat in the back and didn't know how long I cried, the car finally drove into the community, the security guard intercepted the registration number, the driver opened the window and pointed to me, I opened my crying swollen eyes, revealing my tear-stained face, the security guard knew me, he smiled flatteringly and shouted Miss Feng, and took a step back to look at the car," Didn't you accompany Mr. Ji. He hasn't come back yet. ”
The security guard saw that I was reluctant to speak, he was a little stupid, pressed the switch and raised the passage pole, the driver drove the car in, parked outside the gate of the second building, I told him to wait, I asked the nanny to come out and pay the fare.
I pushed the car door down, the iron door of the courtyard was not locked, probably to leave the door for me, the yard was lit with lights, the light was insufficient, but it could illuminate the darkness, I entered the living room and saw the nanny was sitting on the sofa dozing, she heard the sound of the door opening and immediately looked over, and she breathed a long sigh of relief when she found that it was me, "Why didn't Miss Feng answer my phone, I also thought that if you don't come back, you will call the police." If something happens to you, I can't explain it to you, sir. ”
Where can Mr. Ji still take care of me, Bai Jasmine is gentle and lovely, and he is so active, he is immersed in the gentle township and forgets that the world is not enough, not to mention that I am small.
I smiled wryly and pointed out the door, "Please go out and pay the fare, I didn't bring my bag with me." ”
The nanny agreed, she took out a hundred-dollar bill from the box under the lamp, she took it and walked out, I didn't care about the rest, very tired went up to the second floor bedroom and locked the door.
This night I had nightmares one after another, each one was terrifying, I was pointed at by the black gun hole in Mr. Ji's hand, Bai Jasmine stood beside him and laughed, let him shoot, I was scared to wake up, it was still dark, I was full of cold sweat, I was groggy and fell asleep, I met Bai Jasmine in the dressing room, she swept off the things on my table, scolded me for not being ashamed to rob a man, Bai to sleep and shamelessly lie in the manor and not leave, Mr. Ji was tired of me for a long time, I didn't expect that I was not interesting.
All the sisters were surrounded in twos and threes, they whispered, everyone looked at me with contempt in their eyes, even Liang Mei was sneering, she didn't help me.
I woke up from my dream in a cold sweat, I stared at the ceiling, I felt as if I had gone out of hell, tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, and tore off so many hypocritical faces.
I turned my head to look out the window, the eastern horizon was flushed with fish belly white, there was a hint of light light light slowly rising and expanding, I got up from the bed, covered my face and calmed down for a while, I only slept for three hours, but it was better not to sleep, these three hours tortured me to the point that I lost trust in the world, I still have Liang Mei's indifferent face in front of me, I seem to have dreamed of Xi Qing, she ignored me, I was abandoned on a strange street, watching the best sisters around me have left me, but I don't know why.
I walked to the door and suddenly heard a movement from the living room that did not belong to a person, it was very noisy in the quiet morning, I was stunned for a moment, suddenly thought of something, and immediately came down from the second floor, I really guessed correctly, Mr. Ji, who had not returned overnight, came back, he was still wearing last night's clothes, only a little wrinkled, and his hair was smooth and neat.
I touched the escalator to see the nanny squatting in the hallway fiddling with a pair of men's slippers, Mr. Ji handed the briefcase to an accompanying bodyguard, he untied his tie and hung it on the door stand, the nanny changed his shoes for him, Mr. Ji stepped on the sofa, he still didn't see me, he asked the nanny Miss Feng slept well last night, the nanny said while pouring tea for him, "Miss Feng didn't come back until three o'clock in the morning, and when she came back, her eyes were red, and she may have cried." ”
Mr. Ji's face instantly became a little solemn, "Why did you come back so late?" ”
"Miss Feng wore a yellow cheongsam to go out yesterday, and it is the yellow plum you bought for her in the cheongsam zhai."
Mr. Ji pursed his lips and said nothing, and the nanny went into the kitchen to cut the fruit plate, in the process Mr. Ji sat motionless on the sofa and didn't know what to think, I felt that he seemed to be still, in the overflowing sunlight and autumn breeze outside the window.
The nanny took out the fruit plate and put it on the coffee table, and turned to leave, when Mr. Ji called out to her, "Is Miss Feng asleep now?" ”
The nanny couldn't say clearly, he didn't come down, Mr. Ji was about to get up, probably to go upstairs to see me, I deliberately stepped down the stairs hard, making a bang, I stood on a high place and looked at him, "I'm here, Mr. Ji is looking for me." ”
I was still wearing the plum blossom cheongsam with a yellow background last night, and I didn't take it off when I came back, lying on the bed until dawn, turning over and over and pressing. When I first got on my body, it was very delicate, but now it is messy and crooked, I simply stretched it, Mr. Ji saw my embarrassed appearance, there was a trace of displeasure between his eyebrows, the nanny was very knowledgeable and avoided when we looked at each other in silence, I helped the escalator downstairs and walked in front of Mr. Ji, women are sensitive, sometimes I really hate this sensitivity, I saw a pink lip print hidden in the collar of his shirt at a glance, the smile on my face that barely maintained was almost unbearable, I stiffened, tried my best to recover from it, I pretended not to see anything, "Did Mr. Ji have breakfast?" Do I need to go to the kitchen to make a pot of porridge? ”
He rubbed his eyebrows, looking extremely tired, "No, I've eaten." ”
And who eats. And white jasmine, where to eat, 205 private room is still her coveted boudoir by all the guests. I feel that I am suddenly like a resentful woman who likes to be suspicious and disgusting, delusional to know all the privacy and whereabouts of men who have nothing to do with me, I hate such an unreasonable self, I scolded in my heart, Feng Jin, didn't you just sleep all night, why do you have to restrain yourself, what do you care about.
Mr. Ji pinched his eyebrows and asked me where I went last night.
I didn't hide anything from him," Carmen Yan. I'm back there to work, and I owe you so much money that I can't keep pretending to be deaf and dumb. ”
After I finished speaking, I pretended to be careless, leaned over and picked fruits to eat in the crystal fruit bowl, "I also saw you and Bai Jasmine, what's the matter, are you helping Feng Xiaolian to find out about the enemy, and I want to know that his confidant will take down this fierce enemy?" ”
I smiled very brightly, as if I was ignorant, but Mr. Ji's palm-covered eyes slowly opened at this moment, and the silhouette of the eyelashes projected on the palm trembling slightly betrayed the emotions he wanted to hide. He expected that I would probably come so late when I went to the Carmen feast, but he didn't expect me to bump into him and Jasmine White.
The opposite sex who has been in a relationship, even if there is no progress in the subsequent relationship, except for the kind of veterans on the dating field who can be full of indifference, more will still feel very awkward to talk about other members of the opposite sex in person.
I was very considerate to break this strange atmosphere, I picked up a green grape and handed it to his lips, "Mr. Ji tastes whether it is sour or not." ”
He actually doesn't like to eat this kind of food, I know this, I'm just trying to test it, the average man doesn't do anything, he will immediately refuse to feed him what he doesn't like to eat, just like usual, but what he does, he will be flustered when the other party notices, at this time you give him, he will eat, because he has lost the ability to think, he is at a loss, he has no extra reason to pay attention to what you are doing to him.
Mr. Ji finally opened his mouth to take the grape, I closed my eyes in some disappointment, he didn't have time to swallow it, his eyes suddenly saw a scratch on the palm of my right hand, a deep blood mark on it, he immediately picked up the ashtray and spit the grapes in it, he grabbed my hand and asked in a deep voice Why was injured, I smiled and said, "Threw something, it was cut." ”
As I spoke, I quietly withdrew my hand from his palm, and he subconsciously looked at the missing ruby pin on my chest, I didn't expect him to be so smart, I could think of this immediately, he didn't react much when he saw that the pin was gone, he asked me with a calm face, "Are you happy to throw it." ”
I said, "I'm glad." ”
He laughed when I said that, "It's good if you're happy." ”
