Chapter 22: The Hidden Secrets of the Bracelet
Xu Yashi slowly walked to the table, her slender fingers swept over the delicate and noble rose, and her eyes were full of sentimentality: "Ling Rui, do you know who the owner of this bracelet is?" ”
"Didn't I say that? This is Lin Jiayi's bracelet. ”
"Wrong!" Xu Yashizai carefully looked at the bracelet, and a cold light flashed in her eyes, "This bracelet actually belongs to the eldest lady of the Xia family, Xia Qingming ......"
At the door of the apartment, as Lin Jiayi's door closed, the four people in the dining room all looked at her in unison. "Jiayi? Didn't you leave with Song Lingrui? ”
"What are you going to do?" Lin Jiayi sat down on the chair, looked at Lin Shengyu with resentful eyes, and shouted angrily, "Are you still my brother?" Just casually let a man take your sister away! ”
"Didn't he come to pick you up?" Lin Shengyu swallowed the food in his mouth, his eyes gradually fell on the eye-catching kiss mark on Lin Jiayi's neck, glanced at Lin Jialin who was snickering on the side, raised his eyebrows and said, "What's more, you and Song Lingrui have both developed to that point, what's not to do?" ”
Song Lingrui......
When they heard the name again, Su Wanru and Lin Sheng's hands on the vegetables were invariably paused in mid-air, and their eyes shot at Lin Jiayi in surprise......
However, Lin Jiayi covered her neck suddenly, her face sank, she threw her handbag on the sofa casually, and walked back to the bedroom without saying a word. Until there was a sound of the door closing in the bedroom, Lin Shengyu and his sister Lin Jialin stared at each other with big eyes. "That...... Am I saying the wrong thing? ”
"I don't know ......"
Lin Shengyu's face couldn't help but become a little gloomy.
In the bedroom, Lin Jiayi began to regret what she had just done. She wasn't actually angry with Lin Shengyu, but in the current situation, if she heard Song Lingrui's name again, the whole person would become restless......
Alas...... When did she Lin Jiayi become so easily dominated by personal emotions? Where has the calm rationality gone? I shouldn't be such an emotional person, right......
Now Lin Shengyu: They should be worried about their abnormal behavior...... So, shouldn't I apologize to my brother later?
Lin Jiayi lay on the bed, thinking about it, and buried her whole shrugging head deeper.
However, with Lin Shengyu's urine, he will definitely pull her to ask long and short questions......
Seeing that it was almost half past eight in the evening, but he hadn't even eaten dinner yet, and his stomach was empty, he had already protested and started a drum, should he let my brother and mother make a dinner for myself now?
Wait a minute...... It looks like there's a new barbecue stand downstairs?!
Lin Jiayi rolled her eyes quickly, and finally decided to go downstairs to buy barbecue to eat.
tiptoeing open the bedroom door, Lin Jiayi poked out half of her head, but Lin Shengyu still caught her shadow: "Girl, why are you going?" ”
"Go...... ...... buy food downstairs" pulled a dry smile, Lin Jiayi quickly ran out of the room, grabbed the handbag littered on the sofa, and hurriedly went out, the moment the door was closed......
"Whew...... You can't let that guy know that I eat barbecue, or I'll have to say I'm going to eat again! "When I was in college, every time I was caught by Lin Shengyu eating junk food such as barbecue, my fate was generally not much better.
Hum ~ Delicious barbecue, I'm coming!
The night beer barbecue restaurant downstairs in the apartment has been doing good business since its opening, the environment is good, and the price is also very affordable, so it is enthusiastically welcomed by nearby residents, but Lin Jiayi is the first time to patronize.
The owner of the barbecue restaurant is a neighbor who lives in the same building, and the relationship between the neighbors is also quite harmonious, and the boss is a warm-hearted person, and when he saw Lin Jiayi, he greeted her warmly.
"Yo, isn't this Mr. Lin? Craving something? I have everything I need here, and it's so fresh! ”
"Then let's have a glass of sour plum juice first!" Lin Jiayi finished ordering drinks and chose dishes in front of the freezer.
It's so tangled, what should I do...... I feel like I want to have a copy of each!
Just as Lin Jiayi hesitated, a gentle big hand patted her left shoulder.
"Jiayi."
This...... The familiar sound is......
Lin Jiayi timidly turned her head, looked at the man in front of her with a sunny and elegant smile on his face, pulled the corners of his mouth, and forcibly floated a note out of his mouth......
"End...... Senior Duanmu ......"
At this moment, Lin Jiayi's pretty face turned red directly into a tomato, how could Senior Duanmu appear here? I also met her eating barbecue here...... Although eating barbecue is my preference, I still feel so embarrassed to be met by such an elegant person!
Who knows, Duanmuyi pointed to the half-open freezer door: "You're also here to eat barbecue?" ”
"Huh? Senior Duanmu, you too?! Lin Jiayi suddenly opened the freezer door for him like a deserter seeing his teammates, "Then you can pick whatever you want, and the bill will be on my head!" "You know, last time in the restaurant, Duanmuyi helped her out of the siege and helped her pay the bills, this time, I can't say anything in front of the seniors!
Duanmuyi didn't shirk either, still maintaining an elegant smile: "Then I'll be respectful and obey." ”
Ten minutes later, the table at the door of the barbecue restaurant was already full of dishes selected by the two of them, Lin Jiayi smelled the aroma, although she was already so hungry that her chest was close to her back, in front of Duanmuyi, she inevitably had to endure the saliva that was about to flow and maintain her ladylike image.
I remember when I was in college, when I was eating barbecue at a night stall near the school with my classmates, I often met Duanmuyi, and I didn't care about face at that time, and I often ate with grease stains all over my face......
If you think about it, did you think you used to be so unkempt?
So...... When did you start feeling so shy in front of the opposite sex?
"Jiayi, what's wrong? Don't eat it? Seeing that she was stunned for a long time staring at the food, Duanmuyi chuckled lightly and handed it to her with a skewer, but Lin Jiayi seemed to be in a daze, and even her eyes became lifeless......
"Jiayi?"
"Huh?" Coming back to her senses, Lin Jiayi took the skewers in a daze, and when she took a bite, the smell of barbecue spread in her mouth.
Damn, she was in a daze just now?! In Duanmuyi's eyes, does he look like a little fool?
While chewing the food in her mouth, she carefully looked at Duanmuyi's eating appearance. The senior she admires the most, even if it is a barbecue at a roadside stall, she can eat so gentlely, even if she already has someone else in her heart, she has to admit that the elegant temperament exuded by Duanmuyi is that a woman will be deeply attracted to him and fascinated by it.
Duanmuyi also seemed to notice Lin Jiayi's fiery gaze, her dark eyes raised slightly, and when her gentle gaze shot at Lin Jiayi, she was so shocked that she hurriedly lowered her head and silently ate the skewers in her hands.
Scold.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, evoking a charming smile, and Duanmuyi pushed the dish in the center of the table in front of Lin Jiayi again. "You didn't have dinner, did you? In that case, eat more. ”
Hey?! How did he know I hadn't eaten......
Lin Jiayi blushed and pushed the dish back to its original position, still smiling dryly, always feeling that the pressure was getting bigger and bigger when eating with the seniors.
The bill for dinner should have been settled by Lin Jiayi, however......
"Senior! Why did you sneak the money away again?! ”
After eating and drinking, when Lin Jiayi ran to check out, the store manager told her that the bill had been bought by the handsome guy at the same table.
"Huh? Wasn't it your boyfriend? I thought it was my boyfriend, so I was so active in checking out. The store manager quipped.
"No......" Lin Jiayi glanced at Duanmuyi, who was talking on the phone behind him, sighed, took out a hundred yuan from his wallet and handed it to the boss, "Why don't you take my money and return his money to him." ”
"Then I'll collect money and return the money like this, and I'll go back and forth, why don't you give him the money directly?"
Not...... It seems to be right for ......
So, downstairs in the apartment, Duanmuyi insisted on sending Lin Jiayi home, and just as the two were about to say goodbye, Lin Jiayi handed him the 100 yuan.
"Senior sister, take it back." Duanmuyi looked at her reddish pretty face and frowned slightly, "How can there be any reason to make a woman pay?" What's more, Lin Jiayi is still his most ......
"Senior, you just take it, keep letting you pay, I feel uncomfortable to death." After speaking, she stuffed the money into Duanmuyi's palm as quickly as possible, like a frightened cat, "staggered", and fled upstairs quickly.
Call...... The timing was just right! I already let Duanmu Yi break the bill last time, how can I make him pay again this time? After glancing back and confirming that Duanmuyi didn't catch up with the money, Lin Jiayi gradually slowed down and breathed a sigh of relief......
Standing downstairs, Duanmuyi held the money handed by Lin Jiayi tightly and squinted his eyes coldly. A woman's money can also be wanted, when did he Duanmuyi get so messy?!
With a flash of his eyes, he put the money in his hand into his jacket pocket and slowly turned around.
Lin Jiayi will never accept his kindness for no reason, it was and is now, in fact, it seems that all men are kind to her, she will subconsciously treat it as a courtesy, but that person is ......
The Song family's mansion.
Song Lingrui sat in the study, his left hand lazily supporting his chin, the soft light reflected the man's handsome side face, and his gaze always stayed on the glittering delicate bracelet in his hand.
Dove's Blood Ruby......
That's a priceless treasure indeed.
"This bracelet actually belongs to the eldest lady of the Xia family, Xia Qingming!"
"Are you sure you're not mistaken? If it's really Xia Qingming's, why does this bracelet appear in Lin Jiayi's hand again?! ”
"At present, there are only two possibilities, first, Xia Qingming lost the bracelet, or was robbed, or gave it away, and fell into Lin Jiayi's hands; Second, and most likely, Lin Jiayi is Xia Qingming! ”
I still remember that my mother's expression was extremely serious at that time, and every word of what she said to herself in the room today pierced her heart like a sharp blade. This ruby bracelet, if it didn't fall into Lin Jiayi's hands for some reason, then it is very likely that she is the girl who has a marriage contract with her.
Is the Xia family, the head of the three major families in City A......
If Lin Jiayi is really Xia Qingming, then isn't her brother Lin Shengyu......
"Tuk Tuk Tuk ......" A sudden knock on the door pulled Song Lingrui's thoughts back, "Ling Rui, it's not early, aren't you going to sleep yet?" Father's voice came from outside the door.
"I'm sorting out the materials for my work and I'll rest later."
Song Yanyi stood outside the door, listening to his son's pale and powerless excuse, and couldn't help but show a sad wry smile.
What kind of job profile? I'm afraid it's just this kid's perfunctory treatment of himself. You must know that Song Lingrui had already resigned from his job in the hospital not long after he returned home, even if it was a matter in the company, he had not given him a single star.
Xu Yashi is right, the relationship between their father and son has reached such a stalemate to this point, more than half of it is due to Song Yanyi's discipline of his son is too strict.
A seven-year-old child should have spent a good childhood under the care of his parents, but Song Lingrui at the age of seven was restrained by various dogmas, instilled with all kinds of adult thoughts, learned various social skills and disciplines, and the person who was responsible for supervising him and disciplining him was his father Song Yanyi.
Because of this, Xu Yashi once felt sorry for her baby son, but Song Lingrui was like a machine, without any complaints in the face of all this pressure, his mind seemed to have already surpassed children of the same age, precisely because his identity was different from that of children of the same age.
He is the sole successor of Song's enterprise, and the future successor of Song's enterprise.
