Chapter 211: Hesitation
"Why, why is this all of a sudden...... Excuse me for embarrassing ......."
Xia Chenyu waved his hand and didn't take the cloak handed over by Luo Jia'er. He Chenxi glanced at Xia Chenyu, and without any room for negotiation, he walked directly forward and put the cloak on Xia Chenyu. This cloak jacket was a little too long for He Chenxi's body, but it became very suitable for Xia Chenyu. He Chenxi looked at the cloak that was finally put on with satisfaction, and didn't know why, feeling an inexplicable sense of justice permeating his heart.
"You helped me block the juice, I'll put your cloak and coat on, why don't you put it on?"
He Chenxi glanced at Xia Chenyu, and what flashed in his mind was the scene where Xia Chenyu directly reached out and hugged her before she could react, and at that time, the faint fragrance of peppermint shower gel on his body came to his face. The sudden reduction of the distance between the two people, and the subtle sound of the juice pouring out, all these details made He Chenxi feel as if this person could always come to her with his warmth.
"Because the assistant will bring me a coat in a while."
Even in the eyes of Xia Chenyu himself, this argument is a bit incredible and a little unbelievable. This is obviously naked worry, worried that she will catch a cold first if she gives him the cloak. But I don't know why, this real heart is something he can't say.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, you should catch a cold, you know? Really, there is no common sense for such a big person...... My mom said that when you feel cold, you're already cold. ”
He Chenxi said to Xia Chenyu angrily.
"Flutter."
Xia Chenyu actually laughed, and it was a particularly clean smile, so clean that it didn't seem to be mixed with any impurities.
"Oh, so you care about me."
Country M, Jiang Group's Country M Branch, three-story conference room.
In the conference room without lights, Jiang Liyin sat quietly alone, next to a conference table that could accommodate twenty people, and chose a random seat to sit. It's already evening, and in this city of this season, the night always comes relatively quickly, as if it is some unnoticed moment, and the night has fallen. Quietly.
Jiang Liyin took out a box of women's cigarettes from the pocket of her jacket, and two mint leaves, one deep and one shallow, were painted on the front of the package. In fact, Jiang Liyin is a non-smoker, but I don't know why, the idea of wanting to smoke has always sprung up in my head recently. I guess there are too many things to deal with, too cumbersome, so that people want to find a place to rest for no reason, even if it's just for a while.
The smell of women's cigarettes, the smell of secondhand smoke that you smell on weekdays, seems to be too different. Jiang Liyin frowned and looked at the slender cigarette that had been lit, in the conference room that was not bright, the place where the cigarette was lit by the lighter was like a shining star. Jiang Liyin watched the cigarette slowly burning, and also watched the gray-white smoke slowly diffuse from the burning place, and somehow, she suddenly had the idea of wanting to get drunk.
Obviously, now that Gu Shengze can't leave, no matter what, he will eventually become her husband. She'll also be the bedside of the person she's been thinking about day and night, which is the end of everything that seems to be all the way up.
But while all of this is realized, it also symbolizes that she is destined to be the owner of his heart in this life, which is an obvious fact. In fact, she already knew such a result, and even was mentally prepared, but why, when it was about to end, she suddenly began to be afraid and escaped?
At this moment, Jiang Liyin felt that she was a stranger.
Weddings in a sacred church, honeymoons in a romantic place, and after a year and a half, quietly conceive a son and a half daughter, and happily raise them to adulthood. In Jiang Liyin's opinion, this is a very normal and ordinary thing that couples should do, but this does not mean that she and Gu Shengze can't, it's just that when doing these things, the man standing next to her has a cold heart.
Jiang Liyin snuffed out the cigarette butt in a transparent ashtray, put on her chain bag, pushed open the door of the conference room and walked out. Walk down the aisle that never feels like a long one, come to the entrance of the elevator, and stand quietly. Watching the red numbers slowly approach the floor where they were, Jiang Liyin's pupils were godless.
Taking the elevator to the first floor of the building, Jiang Liyin walked out of the elevator, and when he walked out of the building, an unadaptable coolness suddenly surrounded the whole person. Jiang Liyin suddenly remembered that the night in this city seemed to be really empty, because of the cold air that was too affectionate.
Walking aimlessly down the street, looking at the lights of this night, Jiang Liyin finally came to the door of a speakeasy. "Underground Bar", that's what it says. Jiang Liyin walked all the way down the stairs, about the length of two stairs, and Jiang Liyin came to this place where the temperature was obviously much higher than outside. There was noisy music in the ears, the DJ was playing with music on it, and the writhing bodies of the people on the dance floor and the hair that was frantically thrown away all made Jiang Liyin feel it.
It's a place to relax.
I came to the bar, ordered a casual cocktail, and then squinted at the scantily clad girls who were "dancing stick dances" illuminated by magnesium lights of various colors, and their fascinated pupils were full of the uninhibited soul in their bodies, which was seductive. Jiang Liyin looked at the blue cocktail placed in front of her, she hadn't been to the bar for a long time, since she returned to China.
"Hey, beauty, would you like to have a drink together? (M Chinese)"
A young man with pale blonde hair quietly sat next to Jiang Liyin with his wine. Jiang Liyin looked at the young man beside him lightly, he had the deep facial features that people in country M often have, and the good-looking and three-dimensional facial lines, he was the kind of white boy he could see in the class before.
Jiang Liyin clinked glasses with the white young man.
"Do you think I'm pretty? (M Chinese)"
Unexpectedly, even after many years, this mouth can still speak a fluent M Mandarin. Maybe it's because I've been studying here for a while.
"Of course...... But I didn't expect you to be able to speak M Chinese so fluently. (M Chinese) You're a foreigner, right? ”
The white boy seemed surprised by Jiang Liyin's fluent M Chinese, and Jiang Liyin just smiled.
"I'm getting married."
Jiang Liyin said abruptly, then looked at the white boy with a panicked face, and then finished the next half of the sentence she was going to say. Jiang Liyin didn't know if she had carefully weighed her true thoughts, but she still said it, as if she hadn't considered any consequences.
"Are you going to sleep with me once?"
In this noisy and chaotic space, Jiang Liyin felt that the words he said had stood still in time.
But it was clear that it was just what she felt.
A hotel in country M.
Gu Shengze sat quietly in the room alone, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, no, to be precise, it can't be called hot tea anymore. Because now it's completely cool.
It was already midnight at night, and Jiang Liyin hadn't returned to the hotel until now, according to her usual habits, she was probably asleep quietly beside him now. There were two well-trained bodyguards standing at the door of the hotel room, and there was a well-trained female bodyguard staying in the hotel room, but she was different from the bodyguards outside the door, she was also a nanny, responsible for all the daily life during Gu Shengze's stay. In such an environment, the only choice Gu Shengze could choose was silence. Here, silence seems to be the wiser thing to do.
If the news he heard was correct, then he expected to be sent home the day after tomorrow. His mobile phone has long been searched by the people around Jiang Liyin, and now the chance of being able to contact people from the outside world is very slim. In the room where Gu Shengze is located, there are three cameras, and all of them are monitored in real time, if he is not mistaken, all the people who operate the monitoring in the hotel room are in a black nanny car downstairs in the hotel.
This hotel is owned by the Jiang Group, which means that as long as Jiang Liyin is willing, all the employees in this hotel must work for her. Of course, all these things were already figured out by Gu Shengze some time ago.
Gu Shengze gently placed the water cup on the bedside table, next to the bedside lamp. The warm yellow light reflects the glass with colorless water, and the colorless cool white is as if it has been given color. Gu Shengze got up from the edge of the bed, then walked straight to the bathroom supporting the room, turned on the faucet, and washed his face briefly.
Then, he lay down quietly on the bed in his room.
Reaching out and turning off the lights in the room, the darkness fell completely. Gu Shengze closed his eyes, but in fact, he didn't feel the slightest sleep. Ever since he came here, he's played the role of a deaf man who doesn't say anything, doesn't ask anything, doesn't know anything, but he knows very well that he's not.
Han Lier and Luo Jiaer.
What is the trend of public opinion now?
