Chapter 242: Jealousy
The heavy hollow iron door was closed, and Qiu Yinong looked at his smiling handsome face, and vaguely realized something: "You lied to me, how can there be fruit in the world that women eat and burn themselves, and men are fine after eating." ”
Ning Juexi's eyes narrowed and narrowed, and his smile was even more pleasant.
Qiu Yinong turned his face away, and was about to go to the courtyard, turning his head to look around, "What about the housekeeper?" Where did he take our luggage? ”
"I don't stay here at night." The man's faint voice came.
"Don't live here?"
"Hmm."
This is the ancestral home of the Ning family, he said that if he doesn't live, he won't live it, and Qiu Yinong didn't ask much, and looked around curiously.
This garden-style villa is very exquisite, full of time precipitation, very clean inside and out, but it is really not humane, it seems that there are no people living in it for many years.
Walking to the backyard, Qiu Yinong found that there are really a lot of hundred-year-old trees on this island, the camphor tree in front of him has a huge trunk, the trunk on the side of the eye is at least five or six meters high, the whole tree is higher, retreat and build a pergola to take a closer look, how there are thirty-four meters, more than ten thick branches grow in all directions in a radial shape, like a huge green umbrella vigorously standing in front of you.
He sighed, looking down to see the man under the trunk of the tree, squinting at something.
She couldn't help but walk over, and there were some crooked inscriptions on the trunk of the tree that the man was looking at, which looked like a child carved from the handwriting, and almost all of them were swearing, such as: "Wild seed, get out!" And "Why did you come, you shouldn't have come, you robbed me of everything, dog mongrel!" ”
She looked around the trunk of the tree, almost all of these resentful sentences, and it was chilling to read.
Which child carved it? It's been inhabited here for many years, is it the child of the Ning family?
It's not like what Ning Juexi did, but it's more like scolding him.
She peeked at him and found that his narrow eyes looked like ice cubes in his mouth, could it be Ning Qiandong?
Because back then, only Ning Qiandong was born to the main family, and Ning Juexi and Ning Haobei were both illegitimate sons who could not be recognized by the Ning family, and later Ning Juexi and Ning Haobei posed a threat to Ning Haobei in terms of succession......
Come to think of it, the most likely is Ning Qiandong.
In any case, it is a person who has been dead for many years, so it is okay not to care, Qiu Yinong did not look at the trunk again, pointed to another door and said, "I want to go there and see." ”
After walking around for a while, the man walked out: "Let's go." ”
"Where?"
"Eat."
When it comes to eating, she is indeed hungry.
"Is there anything you want to eat?" He closed the door to the villa.
"Whatever." She walked down the stone steps: "It would be better if there was red wine at the time of eating." ”
The man walked in front of her, and smiled lightly when he heard this: "You also said that it is casual, it is clearly very picky, this kind of island wants to drink red wine, do you think it is possible?" ”
She walked down the last stone staircase, ran to him, and said unconvinced, "How is it impossible? When I went to the island, I saw an advertisement for a restaurant, and it was a restaurant with a sea view, right there. ”
Autumn is the highest place on the island, where a three-walled Western-style building stands out, with a string of English on it, which is the name of the restaurant.
He looked at her with his hands in his trouser pockets: "You have good eyesight." ”
Oh, obviously there is a restaurant, and he lied to her that he didn't, as soon as this man arrived at the place where he had been a child, he rejuvenated and played tricks on people.
How old is it? Anyway, he is also a dignified president, and he actually opened his eyes and said nonsense, thinking that he was deceived by him just now to believe that the fruit could really make her ...... Qiu Yinong's face turned red, and he couldn't help but snort from his nose.
This time they walked on a different path, which was completely different from the stone slab road they had originally entered, it was a newly made asphalt road, and it was very smooth to walk.
When I arrived at the western restaurant on the top of the mountain, there were a few noisy boys, one of whom bumped into Qiu Yinong, and he didn't apologize, he pulled her in front of him with a pair of red drunken eyes, looked up and down, and sniffed vigorously next to her pink face: "Ho, do you think I won't recognize you when you change your clothes, young master?" How many years has your rich boss been dead, even if you stay here for the rest of your life, he won't survive, so why don't you follow me......"
What a mess!
Did this man recognize the wrong person when he was drunk?
Qiu Yinong couldn't break free of the other party's hand, turned her gaze and walked up a few steps slower: "Ning Jue Xi......"
Ning Juexi's cold eyes swept over, and his voice was gloomy: "Let go of her, if you dare to move her, I will let you go out sideways from here!" ”
The boy was frightened by this warning that seemed to crawl out of hell, and then looked at Ning Juexi's face, and immediately said angrily: "Where did the little white face come from, it doesn't matter if it comes first and then comes, this woman is the master I fell in love with first, seven or eight years ago, how old are you?" Get the hell out of here! ”
Ning Juexi walked over with a cold face, snatched Qiu Yinong back from the hand of the young brother, and kicked the young brother's chest at the same time.
That boy has always been used to being domineering, and he has always been the only one who bullies others, where has he ever been dealt with like this, and he suddenly fell to the ground and groaned and shouted: "It's still ...... What are you still doing? Call me! Beat me to death! ”
Suddenly, a crowd of people gathered around.
Qiu Yinong was first protected into his arms by Ning Juexi, and then he was afraid of hurting her, so he pushed her behind a tree, snorted coldly, and swung his fist to meet her.
The restaurant manager who came out early in the morning to wait for Ning Juexi heard the movement at this time, hurriedly came over, and saw the beautiful woman who was protected by Ning Juexi on the side, knowing that these sons were molesting good women again, he hurriedly ran to the center in fright, and said to those sons and brothers: "This is Mr. Ning of the Shengshi Dynasty, there is the ancestral home of the Ning family on this island, maybe everyone was a family hundreds of years ago, don't hurt the harmony." In my opinion, a few of them apologized to Mr. Ning's female companion, how about this matter in the past? ”
Those sons and brothers have always been not afraid of heaven and earth, and when they heard the Ning family, they were all surprised, knowing that they had kicked the iron plate today, they were silent and lost their arrogance.
The boy who was flirting with autumn nodded busily: "I recognize the wrong person, I recognize the wrong person......"
The corner of Ning Jue's lips sneered: "Recognize the wrong person? Looking down at the woman in her arms, "Do you think I can accept such a ridiculous reason?" ”
"Indeed...... It's really the wrong person. The boy said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ning, I'm sorry, this lady ......"
At this time, a bold assumption appeared in Qiu Yinong's mind: In this world, only the painting has a face exactly like hers, is the painting not dead?
The manager also wanted to turn the big things into small things, and he became a peacemaker again, and said with a smile: "Mr. Ning, the weather is very good today, suitable for coming out to play, the seat you booked has been prepared for you, do you want to go over to eat now?" ”
Qiu Yinong's eyes stared at the boy who was holding his chest and gasping: "You said that you recognized the wrong person, what did the girl you were looking for look like?" Does it look exactly like me? ”
The boy shook his head: "I drank too much today, and I really saw the wrong thing in my eyes just now, you and the girl I confessed to be wrong...... No, it's that the woman who confessed her mistake doesn't look like her...... It's just that the figure looks about the same at first glance......"
It turned out that it wasn't.
Qiu Yinong's face darkened, and then he pulled the man's sleeve and said, "I'm hungry, go up and eat something." ”
Ning Juexi looked down at her little face, raised his chin, looked at a few boys who seemed to be waiting for him to fall, and only said one word: "Get out-"
The boys ran away in disgrace, and the manager respectfully welcomed them to the restaurant.
There weren't many people in the restaurant, and the manager deliberately reserved a seat for them in the best sight spot.
Qiu Yinong ordered a few things at random, drooped his head, and weakly supported his head to enjoy the scenery of the whole island and the sea not far away from the highest point on the island.
"Why are you unhappy?" The man ordered wine and poured her a glass with a decanter.
She shook her head and smiled bitterly: "I thought they recognized me as a painting just now, but I was happy in vain." It's been four years, and I haven't dreamed of painting once, isn't it weird? ”
Ning Juexi's slender fingers shook the wine in the glass, and when the time was almost up, he took a sip with his thin lips elegantly, and then said slowly: "The day when the murderer is caught will not be too far away." ”
She was startled: "Do you have any clues?" ”
He gazed at the red liquid in the crystal cup and didn't speak.
She unconsciously picked up the goblet in her hand, and couldn't help but say: "The Li Qiang who the gecko confessed to last time, did you find any clues?" ”
The waiter walked over and brought them a table of seafood they had ordered.
The man peeled the shrimp slowly, Qiu Yinong wanted to hear what he said, but he was afraid of annoying him, so he had to endure it.
After a few minutes, he wiped his fingers with a tissue and stood up gracefully: "I'll go to the bathroom." ”
Qiu Yinong nodded, not thinking much about it.
After he left, she turned her head to look out the window, until she heard a movement not far away, and looked up, Ning Juexi was standing straight at the end of the corridor facing her, and a girl was holding an empty drink bottle in her hand, and she was bending down to say something to him.
Qiu Yinong also happened to go to the bathroom, so he got up and walked in that direction.
As she passed, she heard the man's voice like an iceberg: "Why here?" ”
The young waitress said timidly, "I haven't closed my eyes for several days since you left, and I've been thinking about how beautiful the night was for seven days." ”
"You shouldn't have come to me." The man's cold and hard voice was deep.
"I know, I know." The girl snorted, lowered her head and wrung her fingers, her eyes were full of ignorance: "But my mind is full of those nights, I can't forget it, Mr. Ning, can you satisfy my ......"
"I can't." The man interrupted coldly.
The expression on the girl's face froze, her lips trembled, and she almost pleaded: "Just ...... Can it be just once? I just want to revisit ......"
Qiu Yinong stood beside her silently, she couldn't help but look at the young girl, a young face of twenty-three or fourteen years old, with a delicate appearance, big eyes, and a face full of collagen, exuding innocence and pitifulness.
She looks like a girl who likes and can't help but take a few more looks.
The girl was looked at sharply, and she was still a beautiful female customer, and she couldn't help but look at Qiu Yinong twice.
Qiu Yinong felt that the girl's eyes were very pitiful, and couldn't help but say: "You know? ”
Unexpectedly, Ning Juexi didn't seem to hear or see the autumn mood, and looked at the girl expressionlessly: "The past is gone, and it is impossible to turn back, I made it very clear at the beginning, you don't want to appear in front of me again in the future, you and I should have never known each other." ”
Seeing this scene, Qiu Yinong felt that he didn't have to think about it to know what the girl was pestering him for, seven days of night, ha, needless to say, he had spent seven days and nights with such a young and beautiful girl......
And at this time, she seems to have become a backboard or a passerby......
Without listening any longer, she passed by without squinting and entered the bathroom at the end of the hallway.
Five minutes later, she came out, and once again ignored the two of them and returned to her seat.
Qiu Yinong sat in the best position by the window, with her left hand on her chin and looking out the window, watching the boats in the sea not far away, and watching the scorching sun hanging high on the horizon.
The expression on her face was neither cold nor cold, as if it really didn't matter.
Actually, it really doesn't matter, it's not a face.
At first, when she came to their conversation, she was ignored by him, and she felt uncomfortable, but then she listened to it, and felt that she didn't have to mind too much.
When she came out with him this time, she originally had the possibility of failure, and it was a good thing to be able to reunite after breaking the mirror, even if there was no result, she had expected it a long time ago, at least, she was worthy of herself and the secret that Zeng Yuying quietly revealed to her.
There are no regrets.
Ning Juexi didn't speak for a while, looking sideways at the woman by the window.
The manager had long been paying attention to Ning Juexi's side, thinking that the important guests were in trouble, so he hurriedly walked over and said, "Mr. Ning, do you want to kick this young lady out, she has often come to the restaurant to wait for you in recent years, do you know her?" ”
Ning Juexi retracted his gaze and looked at the girl indifferently and detachedly: "I don't know!" He said to the manager unhappily: "It's not here to eat, but people can come in casually, does this restaurant still exist?" ”
The manager was sweating profusely and kept bowing: "I'm sorry that I let someone kick her out and disturb your meal." ”
The girl looked at Ning Juexi in horror: "Mr. Ning...... You can't do that to me! What kind of person I am, you know, how I paid back then, you also see it. I've been waiting here for so many years for an answer......"
The girl's words were blocked by two tall male waiters who came over and dragged out of the restaurant.
"Mr. Ning, your clothes are ......," the manager cautiously reminded.
"Go get me a room." The man said lightly.
"Good...... I'll go right away. ”
Autumn never glanced there again, eating seafood and admiring the scenery as if she had never heard or seen an argument there.
Footsteps came this way, and the man walked up to her side and looked down at her.
Qiu Yinong inexplicably felt a shadow under it, and raised his head without warning and crashed into his eyes, he looked at her, and did not make a sound.
She was silent for a while: "What's wrong?" ”
His big hand was then clasped on her wrist, and her eyes just happened to see his waist, where there was a drink stain, and she couldn't help but think of the empty drink bottle in the girl's hand before, which should be that girl's masterpiece.
The girl splashed it in a "good place", just enough to get his shirt and trousers wet, and the drenching spread to his pants.
Qiu Yinong turned his eyes away and said calmly: "Then you go and change, I'll wait for you here while eating." ”
"Come with me." His hand was always on her wrist.
"I didn't get it wet, you can find whoever got it." She took a sip of red wine and said coolly.
Ning Juexi didn't say anything, looking at the appearance between her eyebrows, a smile appeared in the corner of her eyes, so he clasped her wrist and confronted her patiently.
Qiu Yinong couldn't hold it at first, and he didn't mind this kind of behavior being noticed by the public at all, she was thin-skinned and a little unbearable.
Dozens of seconds later, she still stood up, her wrist fell into his hand, and she left.
The manager arranged a temporary VIP lounge for them, which has everything in it, probably not much use, so the decoration is average, not luxurious or shabby.
Qiu Yinong watched the manager go out quickly, twisted his eyebrows and asked the man next to him who was taking off his shirt: "Don't you have a change of clothes?" ”
Ning Juexi threw aside the shirt he had taken off, and went to untie his trouser belt, Qiu Yinong quickly turned around to avoid it, and heard the man say: "The mobile phone is on the table, you call the housekeeper for me and ask him to send a set of clean clothes." ”
"Oh." She picked up his phone on the table, saw the word butler on the first line of the call log, and dialed it.
Three calls were made, but none of them worked.
"No one answered?"
"Hmm." She dialed a fourth, and it was still the same result.
"If you can't get through, forget it, and then find a way."
"Oh."
After she answered, she found that the man behind her was silent, she glanced at him with her peripheral vision, and found that he was staring at her without blinking, did he mean to let her find a way?
What can be done in this situation?
"Then you go to the bathroom inside and wash your shirt and pants, then take them out, and I'll dry them for you." She'd just spotted the dryer.
The man didn't squeak.
Eerily quiet.
She turned around and quickly glanced at the man in his underwear, could this young master want her to help wash it?
Sure enough, in the next second, the man said in a natural tone: "Have you seen me wash my clothes when have you ever seen me?" ”
"You want me to wash?"
"You're the only woman here."
"You can ask the waiter to help, I think their service will be very considerate and considerate, and will help you iron it."
"If you want me to dress like this, wait here for a few hours?" He chuckled.
"What's not to do?"
"Angry?"
"Nope."
"Jealous?"
She took a breath, ignored him at first, and then said, "That girl is pretty looking." ”
He hooked his lips, "Really?" Why didn't I see it? ”
She glanced at him lightly, pursed her lips and said quite unhappily: "I don't see that it's your business, but you didn't handle the matter between you and her well, so I was also pointed at by many people in the restaurant, and I am very unhappy now, and I don't want to wash you anything." But I think you'd rather wash your clothes, and wave to you, and all the girls on this island will be very happy to line up to wash you. ”
"What do you think I have with that girl?" He stared at her, his lips curled slightly, and asked her with interest.
"I told you, that's your business, don't tell me." She walked to the window and looked down at the beautiful scenery of the whole island, it was difficult to come out to play, or she came out without the approval of her boss, so she had to see more, but at the moment she was panicked, and she couldn't stand any scenery.
"If anything, it should be." The man strode up, his steps light, as silent as a cheetah hunting at night, and he approached almost before she could react.
His bare chest was only a finger away from him, and he suddenly pulled her hand up, touching his abdominal muscles, her eyes suddenly widened, and she was forced into a dead corner by the man, and her face turned red like a burning cloud.
Ning Juexi looked at her reaction, and his thin lips swept over a playful smile: "If I have something with her, do you think I will take you to the island?" ”
"She said she's been waiting for you here for so many years, isn't there something you once had?" She muttered, fingers touching his abs, and he was wearing only a pair of four-legged flats, as if stimulated, and there was a reaction.
She watched, swallowed her saliva, blushed to the back of her ears, and was about to pull her hand out, when the door of the lounge was pushed open without warning, and it was the manager who came in with the housekeeper: "Mr. Ning, I contacted Uncle Lin and sent your clothes to ...... Give...... No, I didn't bring it...... Let's go ......."
The manager and the butler turned around and pulled the door as quickly as they fled.
"No need." The man let go of her calmly, and said casually: "Bring the clothes in." ”
The housekeeper was even more overwhelmed than the manager, so he stuffed the paper bag directly into the manager's hand and hurried out.
The manager came in hard, peeked at Ning Juexi's face, and found that he couldn't see the expression of joy and anger, so he asked anxiously: "Mr. Ning, I went out first, if you need anything, please do not hesitate." ”
"Let's do it first."
"Okay." The manager wiped the sweat from his head: "Today we were derelict in our duty and let people break in and disturb your lunch, so I asked people to remove all the cold seafood and make a new table for you." ”
"Hmm." He responded nonchalantly.
The manager hurriedly pulled the door and left.
Ning Juexi opened the paper bag and slowly took out his clothes and put them on.
Qiu Yinong quickly turned around, lying on the windowsill and looking at the island scenery, his mind was full of the scene when the manager and the housekeeper saw her and him just now, presumably they must have made up a lot of ambiguous pictures in their minds now...... She now felt the urge to jump off here and disappear completely.
As for this man, he is like a nobody, and his nature is really easy to change, and his nature is difficult to change.
Her face was hot as if she had been poured boiling water, and she was so embarrassed that she almost wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, but the man threw the clothes he had taken off before into her hand, and his fingertips stroked her lubricated face, and said in a low tone: "Good, go and help me wash this one, and then take it to dry." ”
