Chapter 28: The Villa of Mystery
I have already understood the viciousness of Xie Chen's mouth, and I thought that he was just doing this to me, but this remark simply surprised me. Nana's beautiful facial features couldn't help but twist, and she pointed at Xie Chen's face and scolded, "The surname is Xie!" Don't be ignorant! If it weren't for my nepotism, you would have climbed to where you are now? Damn it! Even the client of a prostitute is not as bad as you! ”
Xie Chen didn't pay much attention to what he had just said, but just hugged me like a nobody, and prepared to go upstairs. But as soon as Nana's words came out, he stopped, and his face showed hatred, "I'm a prostitute and a prostitute, and I don't care about one or two prostitutes at all." Besides, let me tell you, a stinky had better leave my business alone, what I hate most in my life is to be threatened. He dropped the sentence and went upstairs, and I was almost lifted up by him.
His anger has not subsided, and in this case, I am naturally not qualified to speak. I followed him up to the second floor, where there were three rooms, one of which was locked and the other two were occupied. Nana came early and occupied one room first, and Xie Chen pushed open the other master bedroom, "Clean up and live in this one." ”
"I'll clean it up right away." I nodded quickly and dragged the big suitcase into the room. The furnishings of this room are very simple, there is a large bed, but this bed looks obviously old, and the style is also the one that has long been outdated. There is also a wardrobe, large windows and blinds, and then there is the bathroom inside the partition, all the furniture is very old, nothing special. But the only thing that stood out was a brown-red picture frame on the bedside table - it was just a picture frame, there were no pictures in it, and the bare lenses seemed to tell some unknown past.
Because I don't know how many days I will stay when I come out this time, I still brought enough daily necessities and two sets of clothes to be on the safe side. I opened the closet next to me, and a damp and rotten smell came to my face. There was nothing on the bare wooden board, but it was covered with a thin layer of dust, and there was no choice but to stuff it with the suitcase.
I wiped the table like a hard-working housewife, standing at the window with his back to me all the time, his hands crossed to his chest, the cigarette in his hands burning to the end, and he remained in that position. I had already searched the surroundings when I first went upstairs, and there was nothing outside the window except a snow-covered wasteland, so what was he looking at? Another thing that surprised me was that he said that it was a tourist but brought me to this halfway up the mountain where there is no village in front of the village and no store in the back? Even if you come to experience life, you won't be in such a place where birds don't!
But I didn't want to think about it too much, and I felt someone gently wrap around my waist from behind. I was startled at first, and then I smelled the familiar smell of tobacco. I felt his lips touch my earlobe, as if he was saying something in a dreamlike voice.
"What's wrong with you?" My whole body kept the same movement as before, and I froze straight there.
He didn't say a word, I was used to his reticence, I just didn't understand what he was thinking? How much is on the mind? But I don't know why, this hug today gave me a completely different feeling, he used to come and hug me, and every time it disgusted me, I had an urge to run away. This time it was different, the softest part of my heart was touched.
Quietly embraced by him like this, I was not used to it at all, and I never felt this way in my memory. What does that feel like? Time seemed to stand still, and he didn't know how long it took for him to let go of his hand and leave. I looked at his back, and there was a thin sadness in the coldness.
I quickly packed up my things and was about to go downstairs when I glanced at the bare picture frame on the bedside table, and the more I looked at it, the more awkward it became, so I walked over and pulled open the drawer to try to stuff it in. Lying quietly in the lower drawer lay a leather bag, thin inside that I don't know what it contained, and the closure was stapled to death. I knew it was immoral to snoop on other people's privacy, but I couldn't help but be curious, and when I was struggling with my emotions and reason, I suddenly heard a familiar sound of high heels.
"Lin Xing!" I was not allowed to look up, and the footsteps stopped outside the door, and Nana, with a cigarette in her hand, leaned against the door and looked at me.
I quickly stuffed the brown paper bag into a drawer and pretended to be tidy. The series of movements came so suddenly that my face turned red and white, and I watched her giggle awkwardly.
She hated the way I looked, squinted her eyes and said, "You don't have to pretend to be delicate in front of me, I'm not a man, I won't pity you." ”
I shrugged my shoulders at her sarcasm. She walked up to me in a charming manner, and a pungent smell of perfume wafted through my nose. She wore delicate and intense makeup, and the thin, blood-red nails she picked were like a sharp sword, ready to pierce me at any moment...... This reminds me of the last time I was at Big Brother Haibin's drinking party, not only because I had learned her obscene methods, but just because she had such a backstage as Brother Jiu was enough to be outrageous.
I couldn't help but feel a chill in my back. She sat down on the edge of the bed next to me, elegantly crossed Erlang's legs, and squinted at me, "Actually, I've been having a question since last time, do you know what it is?" ”
I shook my head.
Xie Chen's vision has always been very high and demanding. Over the years, there have been many women who have sharpened their heads and drilled into his arms, but he has never looked at them directly......" She spat out a smoke ring, her eyes blurred under the smoke.
"I know." I admit it. I have already seen his infinite glory before, and when I go out with him several times, there are always many women who throw flattering eyes and send autumn waves.
"I can't figure it out, is his life too boring, and he wants to change his taste with a stupid village girl like you?" Her tone gradually became urgent, "I once did not hesitate to turn my face with my brother in order to help him. But at the end of the day? When he doesn't need me, he throws me away like a rag! ”
"I know." I kept my head down and repeated the phrase mechanically.
"Humph! You know? She sneered, "But do you know? What kind of character are you in his eyes? I thought he chose you out of curiosity, but I didn't know...... I can't figure out how he's going to bring you here, this place ......."
I hurriedly pricked up my ears, vaguely feeling that she was about to reveal some important information, but Xie Chen didn't know when she had appeared at the door, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Hong Lina, you get out of here!" ”
It turned out that her full name was Hong Lina.
Xie Chen stared at Nana with a dark face, his eyes were as cold as a sharp sword. I quickly stood up and explained, "We're just talking...... he rudely pushed me away and lifted Nana out of the collar with his backhand.
I watched the horror in such amazement that I forgot what I was going to do next.
Because of Nana's words just now, I have always felt very uneasy in my heart, especially the hatred in her eyes when she looked at me, which made me feel that she had really declared war on me. I lingered in my room for a long time, and only went out after listening to no movement downstairs. When I went downstairs, I didn't see Xie Chen, only Nana was sitting alone on the sofa in the living room trimming her toenails. When she saw me, her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she turned her head away in frustration.
I walked around the villa twice, and I couldn't really stand or sit. Then when I was about to go back to my room to sleep, I suddenly noticed that the locked door on the second floor was half-hidden at this time, and I guessed that he must be inside, so I wanted to call him. But just as my hand fell on the doorknob, the door suddenly opened from within. Xie Chen walked out with a tired face, his eyes were full of red bloodshots. The way he looked shook my memory, and I quickly remembered that he had been like that when he came home.
He was visibly flustered when he saw me, and his tone was a little displeased, "What are you looking at?" ”
I hurriedly shook my head and waved my hand, "No, no." I didn't see anything. Seeing that he breathed a sigh of relief, I asked, "What is this......?" What's wrong with you? ”
He didn't answer my words, but locked the door very carefully. I stared desperately at my pupils and looked inside, only to see a cloud of darkness. He locked the door before he asked, "What the hell are you doing?" What's the matter with me? ”
I muttered to myself, "Didn't you say you'd be here for a tour?" This place is boring......"
He sighed, crossed his hands on his hips and raised his eyebrows, and said, "That's why I put my arms around you and go to bed, right?" ”
I was immediately discouraged and kept my head down and did not speak. Then he walked past me with a cold snort, and down two steps, he turned back and admonished, "Remember, don't go near this door." ”
I nodded dumbfoundedly and watched him go downstairs. I couldn't help but wonder: what's in this door? What's so special about this place? What secrets does he have that I don't know?
He knows everything about me, but I don't see anything about him. The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, which makes me feel very insecure.
I don't know what his intention was to bring me here, maybe it's because of Nana's relationship, it's been two days, and he hasn't said a few words in total. At noon that day, we ordered some takeout, but he didn't eat much, but I was so hungry that I ate two bowls of mixed noodles. I took a nap in my room in the afternoon and woke up to find that he was gone.
