Chapter 357: An embarrassing past
With such a good seedling, she is not willing to give up immediately.
Jiang Cheng pursed his lips for a long time before saying, "Then I'll come back to you in a week." Looks like he's going to have to go back and think about it.
"No."
Seeing Jiang Cheng leave the office, Xia Ruxing finally loosened his tense nerves and closed his eyes to rest for a while.
But the cell phone on the table rang at an inopportune time.
Xia Ruxing looked at the screen and found that it was a teacher from Xiaoyu's school. She was only stunned for a moment, and then immediately connected: "Hello teacher, I am Xiaoyu's mother, is there anything wrong with Xiaoyu?"
A familiar female voice came from the other end of the phone, with eagerness: "Xiaoyu's mother, Xiaoyu seems to be cold, and he has a high fever that does not go away." Can you come to the hospital near the school? We are taking Xiaoyu to the emergency room. ”
As soon as he heard the news of Xiao Yu's illness, Xia Ruxing panicked: "How can this be, it's okay to go out in the morning."
"Xiaoyu's mother, I'll hang up first, you come over quickly."
Listening to the drop of hanging up, Xia Ruxing's heart seemed to be covered with a thick shadow. She didn't even have time to think, so she immediately rushed out of the office with her bag and went straight to the parking lot.
She knew the location of the hospital near Xiaoyu's school, and along the way, Xia Ruxing's face was pale, and she didn't even have time to call Lu Shenxiao, and her heart was tightly concerned about Xiaoyu's safety.
Half an hour later, Xia Ruxing arrived at the parking lot of the hospital. Unbeknownst to her, as soon as she got out of the car, two tall men wearing sunglasses strode over.
They didn't say a word, picked up the handkerchief that had been prepared a long time ago, and covered her mouth under Xia Ruxing's frightened gaze.
"Hmm!" Xia Ruxing struggled to resist, but everything was blocked.
After a while, she was stunned by a drugged handkerchief, and she fell limply into the arms of the tall man.
The two men in sunglasses glanced at each other, and tacitly lifted Xia Ruxing onto a black car, and then galloped away.
On the other side, Jiang Cheng, who had not been away from the company for a long time, did not go back to the bar, but sat on the bench on the side of the road, smoking a cigarette, thinking about what Xia Ruxing said just now, his eyes were very complicated.
The only way for him to get out of his current life is to tell her the truth. But how can he tell her about his terrible life? Say he's actually an illegitimate child who doesn't even have a household registration? Growing up to be so big that you sell yourself in a nightclub?
Jiang Cheng laughed at himself, and the smoke rings in his mouth spit out again, layer upon layer.
He is just a superficial scenery, and he seems to be sought after by so many women. In fact, they only look at his skin, and when they know his past, they will only run away.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Jiang Cheng looked at the number, and a trace of disgust and exhaustion flashed in his eyes.
But he had no way to hang up, so he could only close his eyes and connect.
"What are you looking for from me?" His tone was cold.
A woman's sharp voice came from the other end of the phone: "Jiang Cheng, how did you talk to your mother!"
"Don't waste my time." Jiang Cheng's eyes were like ice.
The woman snorted coldly: "I have no money, you can send me some more money."
As soon as he heard this, Jiang Cheng immediately became angry. He obviously handed over his salary to her just before yesterday, a full 10,000 yuan, and she spent it before she arrived in a week?
"I've given you all my salary." Jiang Cheng said coldly.
Jiang Mu didn't believe it at all, and was angry: "What about the deceitful ghost!" You sing in a bar every day, will you have no money? I think those guests tip you a lot! Don't grind, give me some money! ”
Jiang Cheng laughed angrily: "What's the use of calling you this bottomless pit?" Do you want to gamble again? ”
She hasn't worked since he grew up and started making his own money. All day long, he either played cards at home, or brought all kinds of wild men to his home, and he also said that he wanted to find him a qualified new father.
Jiang Cheng didn't want her to do the business she used to sell herself to make a living, in order to understand her, he specially found an easy job, just look at the store every day. But who would have thought that in order to play cards, she would steal the boss's things and sell them! Later, he was caught red-handed, and he lost a lot of money in order to prevent her from going to jail.
I thought that this lesson would make her repent and reform, but everything was too much for him. Instead of feeling guilty, she intensified her efforts and challenged his bottom line again and again. even said that if it weren't for him, she wouldn't have fallen to where she is today, which he had to repay!
Thinking of the past, Jiang Cheng's heart was even more tired. All his gratitude and kindness have been completely worn away by his mother. Now, he just wants to get out of this life and never live in the dark again.
Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng's head seemed to be much clearer.
"In the future, in addition to the monthly living expenses, I will not give you another penny, you can do it yourself." After speaking, he ignored Jiang's mother's scolding and quickly hung up the phone.
The ears gradually became quiet, and Jiang Cheng finally calmed down.
After a while, he seemed to have figured it out, and took out his mobile phone to dial Xia Ruxing. This is the number given to him by Qin Shi, in order to thank him for coming out for Qi Yuxin last time, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now.
As long as he bravely tells the truth, even if Xia Ruxing doesn't want to sign him, he will admit it.
……
I don't know how long it has been, Xia Ruxing felt a chill in his body.
Where is she now? How is Xiaoyu?
Thinking of his precious son, Xia Ruxing opened his eyes suddenly, and then gasped for breath.
"Xia Ruxing, you're awake." The strange male voice sounded very rough and heart-wrenching.
Xia Ruxing subconsciously followed the sound and looked over and found a tall man wearing a tiger head mask. He was so big that he couldn't see his face, except that he wore a golden wrench on his thumb, and he looked a bit like an upstart.
"Who are you?!" As soon as Xia Ruxing moved, he realized that he had ropes tied to his hands and feet, and it was very difficult to even move.
She was kidnapped?
Xia Ruxing sighed in his heart, and instantly thought of this possibility. Could it be that Xiao Yu is okay at all, everything was planned by them.
"Don't worry, I don't want your life yet, you're worth a lot," the masked man chuckled.
Xia Ruxing's scalp was numb, and he couldn't wait to escape immediately.
The place where she was held seemed to be a large abandoned warehouse, and the surrounding area was quiet, except for a few men wearing sunglasses not far away. There was a faint smell of rust in the air, and it had been idle for a long time.
Who is this person and why is she being arrested?
Xia Ruxing couldn't figure it out if she wanted to break her head, she had been living in a simple house recently, and she hadn't offended anyone, why was she being targeted again, who sent him?
The silent warehouse was finally broken by Xia Ruxing's mobile phone ringtone.
The masked man strode over and unceremoniously pulled out the phone in her pocket. After seeing the number on it clearly, he squatted down and smiled slowly: "It's a local number, do you want to pick it up?"
Xia Ruxing also took a look at the mobile phone screen, and found that it was not Lu Shenxiao, so he breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, bowed his head and said, "Are you willing to let me pick it up?"
The masked man looked very talkative: "Of course."
He took the initiative to press the answer button, and turned on the hands-free with a smile and put it in front of her.
"Who?" Xia Ruxing's voice was inevitably a little nervous.
But Jiang Cheng on the other end of the phone obviously didn't hear it, and went straight to the point: "Mr. Xia, I have thought clearly, I am willing to tell you the truth."
It turned out to be Jiang Cheng......
Xia Ruxing's heart was very chaotic, but there was a flash of inspiration in his head. She swallowed her saliva, barely suppressed her panic, and spoke: "Jiang Cheng, I agreed to what you said." Wait for tomorrow, when you come to the company, I will give you a new script, called "Suspect", which is the work of Huang Fan and Huang Dao. ”
Jiang Cheng obviously didn't understand her words, and said confusedly: "Did Jiang always decide to sign me?" But I haven't said why. ”
Xia Ruxing's heart pounded: "Needless to say, I understand." I'll send the script to your mailbox in a while, you remember to memorize the lines first, especially if this character is still the male lead, you have to prepare well. ”
Jiang Cheng was stunned by this sudden pie, why did Xia Ruxing's attitude suddenly change greatly, and he also arranged a script for him as the male number one. Obviously, he doesn't even have a foundation in acting.
"Mr. Xia......"
"Okay, you go and prepare first, don't let Director Huang down." Xia Ruxing's nervous tongue was about to tie knots.
I hope Jiang Cheng can understand what she means and quickly find someone to save her.
"I understand Mr. Xia, I will go back and prepare well." Jiang Cheng hung up the phone, he didn't notice anything unusual from beginning to end, and thought that Xia Ruxing suddenly figured it out and decided to give him a chance.
It wasn't until he returned to the bar that the sluggish Jiang Cheng sensed that something was wrong.
It is impossible for Xia Ruxing to arrange such a script for him for no reason, obviously when she was in the company, her attitude was still so alienated. And just now, her tone seemed a little strange.
Jiang Cheng had a lot of thoughts, so he immediately went to the bar to borrow a notebook and searched for the "Suspect" that Xia Ruxing said just now. He always remembered that he had heard the name somewhere.
Not surprisingly, a large section of information about "The Suspect" appeared on the website.
Jiang Cheng even found that this is a movie with a small audience, and it was indeed shot by Director Huang. It's just that the film is not a new movie, but it was released a few years ago, and the response has been good.
The strange feeling in Jiang Cheng's heart became stronger and stronger, and he hurriedly flipped through the introduction of this movie.
The content of "Suspect" is very simple, the male protagonist is a criminal investigation police officer, and because of the tragic experience of his childhood, he hates the kidnappers very much. In an accident, the male protagonist was caught by a kidnapper in a big case and suffered inhuman torture. Later, with his tenacious willpower and spirit, he killed the criminals and regained his freedom.
Just now Xia Ruxing said that he would play the male lead, which is the male lead......
Could it be that Xia Ruxing was kidnapped?!
Jiang Cheng suddenly thought of this result, and his heart trembled fiercely.
That's right, Xia Ruxing was indeed very strange just now, interrupting him all the time, and saying some scripts inexplicably. It is likely that there were kidnappers standing next to her, and in order not to be detected, the only way to convey information was to do so.
