Chapter 18: Honest Fear
Sheng Jianian's face was relaxed and said: "It's just eating, you don't have to act as decisive as if you want to go to the guillotine." ”
Jiang Xi looked in front of him, "You don't eat it yourself, why are you piling it up in my bowl?" ”
Sheng Jianian said: "Watching you eat makes me feel good." Have you eaten well? ”
Surprisingly, Sheng Jianian's tone was not even so tense and serious, and the whole person was wrapped in a layer of gentleness.
Jiang Xi nodded slowly, and Sheng Jianian got up: "Let's go, send you back to school." ”
Jiang Xi was worried about something, and followed him slowly, looking at the tall and majestic man in front of him, panicking, and worrying again.
He has a purpose, right?
Sheng Jianian had already walked out of the restaurant, the remnant sun was like blood, and his majestic body stood outside the door of the restaurant, waiting for Jiang Xi.
Jiang Xi came back to his senses and trotted forward.
"Mr. Sheng."
"Haven't you eaten yet? Nostalgia refuses to go. Sheng Jianian half-jokingly.
In his tone, he really couldn't hear the joke, so Jiang Xi replied seriously: "No, it's too hard to eat, and I can't walk." ”
Sheng Jianian's gloomy gaze fell on her face, her delicate facial features were coated with dazzling light by the blood-red sunset, and at this moment, her whole person seemed to glow, which was very beautiful.
"Do you want to go to the beach?" Sheng Jianian asked her.
Jiang Xi was stunned: "By the sea? Right now? ”
A pair of big eyes filled with surprise, "Let's go to the beach for more than an hour now, right?" ”
The school has a direct bus to Zhongshan Road, and it takes two hours to get by during the current traffic jam.
Sheng Jianian twisted his eyebrows: "You don't have classes at night, and on such a big night, you can't spare the time to go out for a walk?" ”
Jiang Xi opened his mouth, "uh......"
"It's okay, let's get in the car." Sheng Jiannian Road.
His warm, dry palm grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the car.
After Jiang Xi reacted, her face was as red as hanging in the sky, and after getting into the car, he let go of her, and she subconsciously leaned to the car window.
"I want to go back to school even more, and I came out today to find something to do. If you don't find something to do, go back to reading books and learn English. Jiang Xi buried his head and said.
Whose success is easy?
If you don't put in more effort than ordinary people, what are you the last success?
Jiang Xi's words fell, and then turned his head to look at Sheng Jianian: "My family situation is a little worse than ordinary, I need to earn my own living expenses and tuition fees, you asked me twice if I was short of money, I told you, yes, I am very short of money." Almost all the time I can use, I use it to make money. Mr. Sheng, your situation surprised you a lot, right? So, you see me in the messy company of condoms in bars, and you see me as a vase at a drinking party, that's the right way for me to open them. ”
She smiled self-deprecatingly.
It was easier to say it, she looked at Sheng Jianian, with a smile on her face.
"So, Mr. Sheng, thank you for your kindness, the kind of romance of driving more than an hour to the beach, just to blow the sea breeze and take a walk, is not mine. I'm sorry Mr. Sheng, I can't accompany you for your romance, please understand me. ”
Sheng Jianian's eyes were slightly dark, and he was silent for a long time, he said: "There are countless possibilities in life, since there are many possibilities in your life, why do you stick to a single?" Those lifestyles that were once far away from you, you might as well try to accept them, maybe that is not bad. ”
Jiang Xi smiled and said in a low voice, "I accept your kindness, but can you also take care of my self-esteem?" ”
The atmosphere in the car became more and more stiff, Jiang Xi buried her head, and knew that Sheng Jiannian's eyes fell on her head heavily.
"Self-esteem...... My way, hurt you? Sheng Jianian asked in a low voice.
Jiang Xi bit his lip, stopped talking, and shook his head.
Sheng Jianian said: "I treat each other sincerely, what makes you feel uncomfortable, you can say it directly." If you want to tell the truth for others, you first have to tell the truth for yourself. ”
Jiang Xi smiled and raised his eyes: "What I want to say, I said it just now." It's just that I don't want to go to the beach, I want to go back and memorize a few words, listen to an online foreign language class, and listen to a few English songs. I didn't make any money when I came out today, so I have to fill my spiritual world so that I can live up to the bleakness of today's 'no harvest'. ”
Sheng Jianian still couldn't help asking: "Are you really so short of money?" ”
Jiang Xi smiled and nodded: "My parents are already old, and they all have their responsibilities. ”
She smiled, a drop in the bucket and took care of herself, in such a situation, the Xu family came out to stir her up again, she was really tired of coping.
Sheng Jianian nodded: "I understand your difficulties and appreciate your independence and self-reliance." But don't lock yourself up too tightly and open your heart to accept the kindness of others. You are twenty years old, and you are approached by good people and bad people, and you have your own judgment. I won't hurt you, and there's no purpose in approaching you, so I say this, can you let your guard down? ”
Jiang Xi frowned, and then looked ahead: "How can I be?" ”
"Some people are so lucky to meet a noble person in this life." Sheng Jianian answered lightly.
Jiang Xi turned her head to look at him, the seriousness and coldness between his eyebrows were melted by the setting sun, and she actually found a smile from the corner of his mouth.
"Oh, then I'm the lucky one."
Jiang Xi suddenly smiled lightly: "I, in fact, it's so contradictory." While accepting your favor, he kept warning me that this was a trap, a trap for wolves. ”
She turned her head and looked at him with a sunset on her face.
"Actually, I don't usually have such entanglements and contradictions, it's just that your behavior today surprised me too much, I have lived for twenty years, and basically have nothing to do with the word 'lucky'. Such a good thing fell on my head, and I can't be blamed for being honestly afraid. ”
Sheng Jianian's gloomy face didn't soften much because of her relaxed tone, and he could see her reluctance after trying to smile.
"I'll send you back to school." Sheng Jiannian Road.
Jiang Xi nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Sheng, I have gained a lot today, all thanks to you." ”
"You go back and think about what I said, don't reject me next time, I don't like to be rejected." Sheng Jianian said in a low voice.
"Oh......" Jiang Xi's heart tensed instantly.
Sheng Jianian drove in a muffled voice, and after about ten minutes, he could already see the outline of the school.
Jiang Xi hurriedly said: "Mr. Sheng, just put me on the side of the road, and I'll walk back by myself." ”
Sheng Jianian's face fell instantly: "Just so empty-hearted? ”
Jiang Xi seemed to have been knocked out of his brain at this moment, and looked at Sheng Jianian with his mouth open.
"Sheng, Sheng, you ...... Is there a misunderstanding, I didn't mean that. ”
Sheng Jianian ignored her request and parked the car directly at the school gate.
Jiang Xi was so distressed that he covered his face with his hands and sighed.
Then he took a deep breath, and thanked Sheng Jianian with an expression that was not ugly: "No matter what, thank you for taking me to Chaohua Society today, thank you, if it's okay in the future, I hope Mr. Sheng won't come again......"
"What if it's for you to have the opportunity to study in Chaohua?" Sheng Jianian asked coldly.
Hearing this, Jiang Xi withdrew the hand that had been placed on the doorknob, turned back with a heartbeat, and looked at him cautiously and cautiously.
