Chapter 18: My Family
The car drove into an upscale neighborhood.
"This is Lushui Jiangting."
"A high-end residential community, I know, but what are you bringing me here for?"
Luo Nian followed behind Xie Jinghuan, watched him swipe his card to get on the elevator, and pressed the eleventh floor.
Luo Nian has also heard of this community, because it is surrounded by artificial rivers and has very good scenery, and after it was built, it has been booked in advance by the rich and the children of official eunuchs, which can be described as a room that is hard to find.
Xie Jinghuan entered the password and found a pair of men's slippers from the shoe cabinet at the door, "This pair is brand new, you wear this pair first." ”
Luo Nian stood at the door and didn't move.
"You can stay here tonight, the apartment here is nice and quiet."
Luo Nian snorted lightly, "You think I don't have a place to live, do you?" I can't afford to live in a hotel, so I have to come to this kind of place you found for me? ”
Xie Jinghuan looked at the tsundere between Luo Nian's eyebrows and chuckled, "Okay, I begged you to come to my house for one night, huh?" ”
Luo Nian snorted lightly, took off his high heels and walked inside.
The apartment is beautifully decorated, clean and tidy, with a thick cashmere carpet on the second floor, which is silently stepped on.
"This is the master bedroom, and here is the guest room, the study, and the children's room."
Listening to Xie Jinghuan's introduction, and then looking at the various toys in the children's room, she was a little happy, "Whose wedding room is this?" "There is also a children's room......
"Yours."
Luo Nian: "??? ”
Xie Jinghuan raised his hand and hooked the hair on Luo Nian's sideburns behind his ears, "Mine is not yours, this is my home, naturally it is your home." ”
Luo Nian: "!! ”
Her pitch immediately raised an octave, "You, home?" ”
Xie Jinghuan nodded, holding his cheeks and contemplating for a few seconds, "I didn't tell you just now?" ”
Luo Nian turned around directly and was about to leave, "I won't live in your house, goodbye." ”
She went downstairs in her slippers, and went to the entrance to take out her high heels and put them on, but Xie Jinghuan hadn't caught up yet.
He just let her go?
Didn't even make a show to keep it?
Luo Nian was a little puzzled and went to open the door.
The door is locked and a code needs to be entered.
Luo Nian just held on to other people's privacy, and didn't look at the password that Xie Jinghuan entered before entering the door, but now it's good.
She tried to lose twice, prompting an error.
The violent factor in Luo Nian's heart was troubled, and he directly clenched his fist and smashed it.
The combination lock made a dripping anti-theft alarm sound, which pierced her eardrum a little painfully, so she simply went upstairs again.
She looked at the man leaning on the railing, "Xie Jinghuan, you are really a fox." ”
Luo Nian sleeps in the guest room.
Xie Jinghuan brought clean towels and toiletries, "Go take a good bath, I'll go first." ”
"You're leaving?"
Xie Jinghuan tilted his head, "What, don't you want me to go?" ”
"Get out of here."
Luo Nian closed the door.
Through the door panel, Xie Jinghuan reported a string of numbers, "Combination lock password." ”
As soon as he went out, he frowned.
Du Feng hurriedly stepped forward to support Xie Jinghuan.
"Big and Young......
Xie Jinghuan's voice tightened, "It's nothing, go drive." ”
He went straight to the back seat of the car and took off the dark leather jacket on his body, the white T inside was almost dyed red.
Du Feng took the medicine box, first helped Xie Jinghuan apply a layer of medicine, and looked at the bloody vertical and horizontal whip marks, "It's been three days of medicine, why is it not good." ”
The corners of Xie Jinghuan's mouth hooked up a sneer, "If someone doesn't want to call it good, it can't be good." ”
When Du Feng heard this, the movements in his hands were stunned, and his eyes looked at the ointment in his hands in horror.
"This medicine ......"
He just wanted to throw the window out.
Xie Jinghuan grabbed his wrist, "Tu, when it's time to get right, it's fine, and now I have to continue to use it." ”
Du Feng pinched the ointment in his hand, but it seemed to be a hot potato deadly poison! The green tendons on the back of his hand burst out, and every time he smeared it on Xie Jinghuan's back, his fingers trembled.
After applying the medicine, Xie Jinghuan changed into a new T-shirt.
Du Feng answered the phone, closed the line, and said to Xie Jinghuan sideways: "Da Shao, my wife knows." ”
Xie Jinghuan leaned on the back seat and half-closed his eyelids, "Well, call me when it's time." ”
When I returned to Xie's house, it was nearly early in the morning.
Everything was so quiet that if it weren't for the light left in the living room, you wouldn't even be able to detect a figure sitting on the sofa.
"Mother."
Xie Jinghuan walked over with a straight posture and shouted.
Jiang Minlan opened her eyes, and the Buddha beads held between her fingers circled twice, "Where did you go?" ”
"Wandering around outside."
"Xiao Du, you say." Jiang Minlan's gaze was on Du Feng, who was cramped behind him.
Du Feng's mouth opened and closed a few times before he said, "Da Shao has gone to see Miss Luo." ”
"Okay, I see, it's none of your business here." Jiang Minlan waved her hand and told Du Feng to leave.
The door clicked and locked, leaving only the two men in the living room.
One stand and one sit.
Xie Jinghuan's figure was stretched very long by the light, fell on the wall, and bent aside.
"Ah Huan, do you still want to be insistent?"
"Yes, mother," Xie Jinghuan's eyes were clear, "I still say the same thing, I will not give up." ”
Jiang Minlan sighed and stood up, "You just stand here tonight, when you think about it, when you figure it out, when you go back to your room." ”
"Yes, Mother."
Xie Jinghuan bowed slightly, and watched Jiang Minlan go upstairs.
At night, it's exceptionally quiet.
All you can hear is the ticking of the second hand of the old-fashioned grandfather clock in the restaurant.
He was ready to stand here all night.
The night gradually brightened, and slowly crept from the bright flowers of the verdant meadows outside to the interior, and landed on a figure in the living room, staining his black trouser legs.
As soon as it was dawn, the nanny got up and prepared to go grocery shopping.
As soon as he came out, he saw a figure lying on the ground, and he screamed.
"Big young master! Gentleman! Call a doctor! ”
…………
Luo Nian chose a bed a little.
She couldn't fall asleep lying on the bed tossing and turning, so she simply got up and went to Xie Jinghuan's study to pick up books.
Pushing open the door of the study, the smell of books and ink lingers on the tip of my nose, and I see the tall bookshelves against the wall on both sides, and in the middle is a spacious reading table, where a white celadon vase is placed, and a light purple forget-me-not is inserted in it.
Luo Nian pursed his lips, Xie Jinghuan's taste was still good.
She casually took out a foreign masterpiece, leaned against the head of the bed, and opened it only to find that it was the original English version.
She has been abroad for three years, and her spoken English is okay, but it is still a little difficult to read this kind of original English work, with the following annotations, after reading for half an hour, her head tilted and fell asleep.
When I woke up, it was dawn.
Luo Nian pinched his eyebrows, raised his arm, and with a click, the book in his hand fell to the floor.
After she got up and washed, she took the book and went to the study to return it.
The gray-blue curtains were drawn tightly, and no natural light could penetrate outside.
Luo Nian walked over and opened the curtains, and the natural light from outside shone in, and the light splashed on the ground at once.
She turned to leave, but on a desk near the bay window, she saw a royal blue velvet jewelry box.
The box was opened, and the light inside shimmered brightly, shaking Luo Nian's eyes.
Luo Nian frowned and walked over, picked up the ring box and glanced at it, and his mind buzzed.
