Chapter 76: She Lied
The moment when Sang Ji was really flustered was in the reading room of Jiaoyang Middle School, when she received a call from Xu Jiamu.
The phone call that hadn't rang once in 10,000 years suddenly came, which made her inexplicably think of the incident of not returning home last night, and she couldn't help but be afraid.
During the lunch break, the students who were studying in the quiet reading room looked up at her with the ringtone of their mobile phones.
Sang Ji was frightened and pressed the volume button when the phone rang for the second time, and the ringtone stopped abruptly, but the phone was still vibrating, and Xu Jiamu's remarks jumped on the screen.
She put the books away and folded them together, walked out of the reading room with her phone, walked to the stairwell on the third floor, and slid the green button with a trembling hand to answer the phone.
An indifferent and cold voice came from the other end, "Where are you?" "It's a question.
Sanji struggled to suppress his nervousness and let his voice sound calm, "I'm at school. ”
Hearing the reassuring answer, Xu Jiamu paused for three seconds, and his cold tone did not diminish in the slightest: "Why didn't you go home last night?" ”
Sang Ji replied almost in seconds: "Brother Jiamu took me out to eat, and I didn't go back very late." ”
She was telling the truth, after all, she really went to dinner with Xu Jiamu, but the time was different.
Xu Jiamu's voice didn't come from the phone again, and after a long silence, there was a busy sound from the mobile phone.
Sang Ji stayed in place with his mobile phone, his eyes gradually becoming blurred, he ...... The phone was hung up.
After a long time, she withdrew her hand with hazy eyes, turned and walked into the reading room, unable to complete the simple questions for a long time.
I thought deeply in my heart, I don't know if he would believe it.
-
On the other side, Xu Jiamu hung up Sang Ji's phone and called Xu Jiamu.
The phone waited for almost a minute before it was connected, and he asked directly, "You negotiated the contract in Y City yesterday?" ”
Xu Jiamu didn't respond immediately, the first thing that came to mind was Sang Ji, he raised his eyebrows and waited for thirty seconds, creating a very busy appearance before slowly speaking, "No, I went this morning." ”
Xu Jiamu lowered her eyelids, a trace of doubt crossed her eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "Why did you only go today?" ”
Xu Jiamu went to Y City to talk about the newly developed game of Xu Jiamu's company, and the date of the very important project was also yesterday.
"No why," Xu Jiamu's face became colder, standing next to the floor-to-ceiling window of the room on the twentieth floor of the Y City Prestige Hotel, looking at the city that was being washed by heavy rain, and his speech was still unhurried, "Xiao Sangji was in a bad mood yesterday to go out with her, and she didn't go when she was late." ”
"Is the contract negotiated?" Xu Jiamu's cold tone eased for a while, "Come back when the talk is over!" ”
He didn't wait for Xu Jiamu's answer, and hung up the phone with a sudden and perfunctory concern.
Xu Jiamu looked at the gradually darkening mobile phone screen and laughed, and muttered in his mouth: "The drunkard doesn't mean to drink." ”
-
A few minutes later, the mobile phone made a "ding" sound, bringing Sang Ji, who was still immersed in Xu Jiamu's questioning, back to his senses.
She lay on the table, fumbling for her phone and reaching under her face to open the text message.
[Brother helped you again.] 】
Sender: Xu Jiamu.
Sang Ji didn't know why, so he sent a question mark and put his phone on silent and put it in his pocket.
The lunch break was about to end, she had no intention of studying, picked up the books she had just packed, and as her classmates walked out of the library, she returned to Class 7 with her head down, putting down her books and having a meal.
