Chapter Forty-Seven: Leaving Soon
Cheng Yan smiled inexplicably: "Go on." β
"He Cheng also just came back some time ago, and I also happened to see that the lock screen of his mobile phone is Xingan."
"The two of them know each other?"
"I know, both of them are studying in New City, I remember one year Xin's parents brought her to our house as a guest, and when chatting, I found that the two of them were studying in the same place, so we met."
Cheng Ji: "How old will they be?" β
"Xingan went abroad at the age of thirteen, and my brother graduated from high school. Because Xin Gan is more experienced than my brother, my mother asked Xin Gan to help take care of He Cheng, you know, I don't have a good relationship with He Cheng, he won't tell me anything, I also heard my mother mention it, and then I happened to see the lock screen on He Cheng's phone. β
So they happened to be in the same city, and they met by chance, and the two of them helped each other in a foreign country?
Cheng Yan licked the corners of his mouth, and his pupils became deeper and deeper.
The relationship between the He Chuan brothers is not good, but He Chuan and Cheng Jiu have a good relationship, the two of them are more like brothers, in He Chuan's opinion, He Cheng will only cause trouble to the family, he is the eldest brother, and if he manages too much, it will cause He Cheng's disgust, and over time, the relationship will not be so good.
When He Cheng graduated from high school, he was sent abroad because of his poor academic performance and he couldn't get into a good university in China.
He Cheng hadn't had much contact with He Chuan in the past few years abroad, He Chuan was also busy, and they were all men, so naturally they wouldn't have a heart-to-heart relationship, and they didn't even have greetings for the New Year's holidays, and the family relationship was as weak as water.
After He Chuan found out that He Cheng's mobile phone was locked, he thought for a long time, thinking that according to He Cheng's character, something would definitely happen more or less, so he said hello to Cheng Cheng in advance, after all, Xin Gan and Cheng Cheng were married, so Cheng Cheng had a bottom in his heart.
Cheng Yan listened silently, he didn't expect that Xin Gan was sent abroad at the age of thirteen.
He Chuan's tone was hesitant, and he didn't hear what Cheng Ji said, he began to explain: "I think it may not be what we think, it may also be He Cheng's unrequited love or something, and Xin Gan hasn't had a marriage contract with you since she was a child, and the Xin family should not agree to her associating with other people or something." β
He Chuan said that his voice became quieter and quieter, and he had no confidence, because even though Cheng Zhen knew that he was married, he still talked about his girlfriend when he was in college.
He is the same year as Cheng Jiu, and he has been in the same school since he was a child, so he still knows a lot about Cheng Jiu.
Cheng Zhen smiled meaninglessly and said, "Yes, I know." β
Cheng Yan asked lightly: "Why is she thirteen years old, the Xin family sent her abroad, and the Xin family has one daughter for her, so ruthless?" β
He Chuan said: "It's not ruthless, it's related to Old Man Xin's educational philosophy, Xin Gan's father also came over like this, even if she is a girl, she can't run away." β
"You know her well?"
ββ¦β¦ No, didn't you ask me about her? β
Cheng Jiu: "Okay, I see. β
He Chuan: "By the way, He Cheng ...... about this"
"You don't have to worry about the rest, I know it in my heart, and I don't have to say anything to He Cheng."
He Chuan: "I know, then let's do this first, you can find me again if there is anything." β
"Well, hang up."
Cheng Yan hung up the phone, finally glanced back at Jiang Tang, and asked in a low voice, "Are you still in trouble?" β
Jiang Tang looked at his side face, the light was dim, the moonlight was dim and shone on him, her eyes did not move away for a moment, looking at him greedily.
But no matter how hot and intense her eyes were, she couldn't get a response from him.
He also said it just now, and he couldn't give her any response.
It's all because of Xingan.
But what is Xingan, when she and Cheng Ji were born and died, where was she Xingan?
What qualifications does she have to be between them?
Jiang Tang's smile became colder and colder when he thought of this.
She said, "What I just said ......"
Cheng Zhen remembered: "Jiang Tang, I won't turn around, I will tell you directly, I have never had any thoughts about you." β
Jiang Tang pursed her lips, her lips trembled slightly, and she laughed at herself: "It seems that I am wishful thinking." β
Cheng Yan couldn't say anything, after all, it was her own business who she liked, but he couldn't give any response, if he gave the wrong information in the first place that caused her to have this idea, it was his problem.
However, he knew very well how he felt about her, and he only regarded her as a comrade-in-arms, and he had no other thoughts.
Cheng Zhen called her: "Jiang Tang ......"
Jiang Tang hurriedly waved his hand, "Okay, it's good for us to talk about it, and blame me, I didn't understand the situation, I thought you were single, so I ...... Forget it, it's useless to talk about this now, sorry for the trouble. It should also cause trouble for Miss Xin. β
Cheng Jiu: "It's nothing, don't worry." β
"What about Miss Xin?" Jiang Tang reacted quickly, diverted the embarrassing question, and immediately went around to Xin Gan, she said: "I should have had some unpleasant trouble with Miss Xin before, I didn't know that she was your fiancΓ©e, I thought it was your sister, so I may have said something inappropriate......"
"Cheng Zhen, I didn't mean to, mainly because I really didn't know your relationship before, so ...... Well, I'll go to Miss Xin tomorrow and invite her to my dad's for a meal by the way, and I'll explain it to her when the time comes. β
Cheng Ji actually wanted to refuse, but Jiang Tang continued: "Cheng Ji, don't worry, I won't say anything to Miss Xin again, after all, I made her unhappy, I'll just explain it to her." β
Cheng Yan didn't say anything, but said: "No need, she's not feeling well, let her rest." β
"Okay, you've said so, then we'll go to my dad's tomorrow?"
"I'll tell the above."
"Okay, thank you, my dad must be happy to see you."
β¦β¦
Cheng Ji didn't agree to this, mainly because he was afraid that Xin Gan would be unhappy when she saw Jiang Tang, she asked him that time, what was his relationship with Jiang Tang, and he explained, but Xin Gan's cold reaction, he didn't know what she was thinking.
He didn't know her well enough, and she was also wary of him, not easily confiding her true emotions and thoughts.
Cheng Ji returned to the dormitory and took a bath in the bathroom, obviously taking a cold shower, and suddenly remembered Xin Gan, she was standing in the wind in her skirt, and the skirt was blown up by the wind, revealing her delicate ankles-
The water temperature in the bathroom rose, Cheng Zhen panted and leaned against the wall, the water mist was misty, which made people look unreal.
β¦β¦
Xingan returned to the inn and took a shower and washed her hair, and after waiting for her hair to dry for a long time, she was tired and sleepy, and went to bed and fell asleep quickly.
That night, she dreamed that during the time when she was studying abroad, she was very homesick every day from the very beginning, and she hid in the room at night and cried, and couldn't help but call home, she said that she wanted to go home, every time Xin's mother said that she spent so much money for her to go to school, and she couldn't pay the tuition for nothing and didn't go to school, let her be patient, learn to be independent, and don't always rely on her parents.
Every time she called, she would cry, and Xin's mother also felt sorry for her, and she cried together, but no matter what, she just couldn't go back to them, and she had to finish her studies before she could return to China.
She was really lonely during that time, her eyes were red and swollen the next day after crying at night, and she had to go to school the next day, and she had to say hello happily when she saw her classmates, otherwise she would not be able to make friends, which was what the teacher told her.
Later, she got used to it, she didn't cry, and gradually called home to report good news and not bad news, she only said good things, bad things didn't say a thing, afraid that they would also worry, and even more afraid that her parents would think that she was unproductive, she would only cry, and crying could not solve anything.
Later, He Cheng graduated from high school, and his family spent a lot of money on him to send him to study abroad.
Xin Gan received a call from her parents asking her to take care of He Cheng more, He Cheng was a year younger than her, and she was good-natured and promised to help take care of him, so she did her best to help him in all aspects.
Xingan didn't expect that the favor he agreed to help would bring him a lot of trouble.
Xingan woke up and saw that it was dawn outside the window, then got up and washed, and looked at the ticket by the way, there is no tomorrow, there is no tomorrow, there is no day after tomorrow, she hesitated for a few seconds, pressed the words of the booked ticket, and booked a flight at seven o'clock in the evening the day after tomorrow.
Xin Gan looked in the mirror, his skin was a little peeling, dehydrated, and red, he was a little allergic to the sun, and he didn't get better after a night's rest.
When she was wiping her face, there was a knock on the door, she opened the door and saw Jiang Tang standing outside the door, she was a little surprised, and asked coldly: "So early, Miss Jiang, what's the matter?" β
Jiang Tang also said early, "It's a bit early, it's only seven o'clock, do you want to go out when you get up so early?" β
Xingan said: "You are also early. β
"Yes, I'm here for you."
Xin Gan's expression was dull and there were no mood swings.
Jiang Tang said: "Cheng Zhen and I are going to Yajiang Town to do something, I thought about it and felt that I should tell you." β
Jiang Tang swept his eyes and saw Xin Gan in the room packing up the suitcase that was put aside.
Xingan asked her, "Why?" β
Jiang Tang retracted his gaze and smiled: "I only found out yesterday that you are Cheng Ji's fiancΓ©e, Miss Xin, I apologize to you for what I did before, I didn't know that you were Cheng Ji's fiancΓ©e, if I knew, I wouldn't say those excessive words." β
She was frank and unassuming, so that people couldn't see that there was a problem, and said: "Think about it from your side, if I were you, I would be unhappy, and I wouldn't give a good face, I understand." β
Xin Gan frowned slightly, not quite sure what Jiang Tang meant.
What Jiang Tang said, Xin Gan was skeptical, but the two of them had no grievances or hatred, and it was only because of Cheng Jiu's relationship that Jiang Tang was hostile to her, leaving aside Cheng Jiu's factor, there was no need for the two of them to fight against each other.
Xin Gan didn't have the energy to fight with Jiang Tang, she had already booked a ticket, and this time she had to leave no matter what.
As for the marriage with Cheng Jiu, I can only find a chance to confirm it with him again.
"Miss Xin, let me tell you again, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." After Jiang Tang finished speaking, he added: "But Cheng Jiu, I won't give up, you two haven't gotten married yet, and I still have a chance." β
Xin Gan twisted his eyebrows: "You laid so much groundwork, just to say this?" β
"You don't look like you're angry."
"Don't be angry, why should you be angry, but you found the wrong person, you should find Cheng Zhen to say, it's useless to find me, let's be honest, I don't care what happened between you and Cheng Jiu, and he and I are not what you think." She clicks on the spot and then drops off the guest.
Jiang Tang was not angry, he smiled to himself, and then left the inn.
She came early in the morning to find Xingan.
She concluded in her heart that Xin Gan and Cheng Ji had no feelings, because she didn't feel any love, and what Xin Gan said was worth pondering.
β¦β¦
At about ten o'clock in the morning, Cheng Zhen went to see Jiang Tang's father, Jiang Tang was also there, and at noon he had dinner at Jiang Tang's house, and was poured wine by Jiang Tang's father, and he had to drink it, because Jiang Tang's father had saved him, and because of this, Jiang Tang's father retired due to work injuries and recuperated at home.
Therefore, Cheng Yan owes Jiang Tang's father a favor, he will come to visit Jiang Tang's father every year, and he is quite familiar with their family.
And Jiang Tang fell in love with him at first sight and paid a lot for him, Jiang Tang's father understood his daughter's feelings for Cheng Ji, and once mentioned to Jiang Tang whether he wanted him to be a middleman and talk to Cheng Ji.
Jiang Tang refused at the time, thinking that the emotional matter should be said by herself.
However, today, Jiang Tang's father still helped Jiang Tang say it.
"Ah Jiu, Tang Tang is not young anymore, the two of you have known each other for so many years, you should know each other very well, I have always had an idea, but I don't know what you think."
That's pretty straightforward.
Of course, Cheng Zhen was not the only one who came to visit Jiang Tang's father, there was also Jiang Yang, Jiang Yang was Jiang Tang's cousin, and he was her cousin, so he was also present.
Jiang Yang said, "Uncle, you drank too much again. If you are so direct, Jiang Tang will be embarrassed. β
And Jiang Tang lowered his head to eat, and he didn't say anything with his head down.
"It's embarrassing for a man to marry a woman when she gets married, and it's not a shame." Jiang Tang's father looked at Cheng Jiu, "Ah Jiu, are you right?" β
They were all waiting for Cheng Zheng to make a statement, but he made it clear to Jiang Tang last night, and then Jiang Tang's father mentioned it again, he glanced at Jiang Tang expressionlessly, pulled the corners of his mouth, and said, "Uncle Jiang, don't hide it from you, I ...... it."
"Dad, don't be embarrassed, he and I won't think about this matter for the time being, don't mention it again, you mention where to put my face again."
After Jiang Tang finished speaking, Jiang Tang's father reacted slowly, realized something, smiled again, and quipped: "Look at this girl is shy, okay, okay, I won't talk about it, don't mention it yet." β
Jiang Tang looked at Cheng Yan again, "Don't worry, my dad drank too much nonsense, it's not that you don't know how much he drinks." β
Cheng Yan smiled and didn't speak.
After eating at noon, the sun was too strong, Cheng Yan and Jiang Yang stayed, planning to return to the team in the afternoon, and because of this, Jiang Tang's father talked to him, and there was no one else.
Jiang Yang looked for Jiang Tang, walked to a place where there was no one, and said, "Uncle was going to talk about it just now, why didn't you let Uncle continue?" β
Jiang Tang: "What do you say, I just looked for Cheng Ji last night, and he said that Xin Gan is his fiancΓ©e, what do you think I can do?" β
"Brother Jiu admitted it personally? Why, I haven't heard of it before. Jiang Yang has been with Cheng Yan for a lot of time, and he has never heard him say it.
"Otherwise, I stopped Dad from saying those things just now?" Jiang Tang was also angry and wrote jealousy on his face.
Jiang Yang said, "Then what should you do?" β
"What to do, what else to do." Jiang Tang's expression was not good, and he said, "I won't let go easily, I have paid so much for him, and I would have had a better chance to leave here, but because of him, I stayed, and I will never admit defeat." β
Jiang Yang is related to her, so he is naturally on her side, perhaps because of preconceived notions, which causes him to have no good feelings for Xin Gan.
Jiang Yang said: "Is there any way to do that?" β
"Jiang Yang, you help me inquire with Xiao Shi, I want to know where they went in the past few days and what happened."
"No problem."
Jiang Yang was straight-minded, since he was on Jiang Tang's side, he would help her whatever Jiang Tang said.
Cheng Ji originally planned to leave in the afternoon, but Jiang Tang's father had a temporary problem, saying that his leg injury had been committed again, and the pain was terrible, and he wanted to go to the hospital, but he was unable to move, so Jiang Tang asked him to help send him to the hospital.
The hospital in the city is very small, but there are many people, and it is very small.
In this way, it was evening, and Jiang Tang left them down for dinner in the evening.
After dinner, Cheng Yan helped clean up the table, Jiang Tang wanted to help him get the bowl, but after he avoided it, her face was a little ugly, and she said, "I am so hated by you?" β
Cheng Yan said calmly: "No, don't think too much. β
He wanted to help wash the dishes, but Jiang Tang didn't let him, and followed up with the kitchen.
"Cheng Jiu, it's too much trouble for you today, but fortunately you are all here today, otherwise I don't know what to do."
"It's nothing."
"By the way, I went to find Miss Xin when I passed by the inn in the morning, and I apologized to her in person, Cheng Ji, we can still be comrades-in-arms in the future."
Cheng Yan said a sentence and responded lightly.
"Another thing, I went to find Miss Xin in the morning and saw that she had packed her luggage as if she was leaving? Is she leaving? β
Cheng Yan paused, and his mood finally changed, "She said? β
"No, I didn't ask, but I saw her packing her suitcase, but it doesn't seem like you know, did I say something I shouldn't have said?"
Cheng Zhen washed the bowl clean, put it aside, and said, "It's not early, I'm going back too, and I have something to do tomorrow." β
"Are you going back so late?"
"Hmm."
Jiang Tang chased him out, Cheng Zhen was saying goodbye to Jiang Tang's father, Jiang Tang's father wanted to keep him for one night, and the room was cleaned up, but Cheng Zhen's attitude was cold and hard, and he refused the old man's kindness, saying that he would come to visit another day when he was free, and he still had something to deal with.
Jiang Tang's father can't keep people if he wants to, so forget it.
Jiang Tang watched Cheng Zhen get into the car, Jiang Yang saw that Cheng Zhen was leaving, and also got into the car with him, the car lights turned on, she was squinted by the light, and the next second, the engine sounded, and Cheng Zhen drove away directly.
The road at night is not easy to walk, especially Yajiang Town is a small remote place, there is no complete road.
Jiang Yang sat in the passenger seat and tried to say, "Brother Jiu, are you in such a hurry to go back?" β
"Hmm." Cheng Zhen only responded coldly.
"Brother Jiu, I ......"
Cheng Ji interrupted indifferently: "Have you made progress in investigating Yutou's subordinates?" β
"Not yet, there is no news yet, they are too good at running, and the terrain on this side of Beiyu is complicated, the plateau area, it is difficult to trace."
Cheng Ji: "Hurry up, if there is news, notify me as soon as possible." β
"Okay, Brother Nine."
Jiang Yang pondered for a while, and then said: "Brother Jiu, why don't I drive, you are tired for a day today, I haven't drunk, I am familiar with this road." β
"Okay, then you can drive."
He's really not fit to drive.
