171.The Past Is Like Smoke (1)



After thinking about it for two days, Shen Xingzhi finally decided to pretend that he didn't know anything.

Jing Yan is in this position now, and he must know best what he wants. Since he has his own plans, why should he meddle with rats.

What's more, what secrets did he dig up? Shen Ruochu's stomach has been more than seven months old, can he still persuade them to divorce at this juncture? Completely unrealistic.

Jing Yan does have her own plans. It's just that this plan deviated a little before he was ready to put it into action......

The bribery has come to fruition so far. It's just that the case involves many aspects, and there are still certain procedures to go, and Jing Yan still has a limit to his freedom for a while. Although after this incident, there are many matters in the group that need to be handled by him personally. But Shen Ruochu was about two months away from giving birth at this time, and if it wasn't for a big deal, he wouldn't even want to go out of his house, let alone leave City B. What's more, during the examination a few days ago, several indicators of pregnant woman Galeries Lafayette were already at the critical point of unhealth.

Jing Yan followed the doctor's advice and gave her a prenatal yoga class. I accompanied her conscientiously in every class. Even if you're busy, you have to squeeze that little time over.

So when Jiang Xinyue called, he was waiting for the pregnant woman who had just finished class to wipe her sweat and drink water.

The mobile phone rang for about ten seconds before Jing Yan had his hand free to answer the call. The familiar voice was still as soft and tactful as ever, but it made him feel an indescribable emotion in his heart.

After Jing Yan said "hey", he didn't speak for a moment. Until the other party unhurriedly opened his mouth to urge......

"Jaryn, can you hear me?"

"Yes." Jing Yan only responded to one word, and there was no follow-up.

"Heh......" Jiang Xinyue chuckled, and then went straight to the point, "Do you have time?" I have something I want to talk to you about. ”

Jing Yan subconsciously glanced sideways, glanced at Shen Ruochu beside him, who was drinking water and entertaining himself with a straw, and asked softly, "Is it okay tomorrow?" I'm in trouble right now. ”

"Tomorrow......" she paused, with an indescribable coldness in her slightly sighing tone, "Jaryn, I'm in the apartment. Waiting for you for an hour at most. ”

Jing Yan was stunned for a moment, and called out urgently, "Hey, Xinyue!" But the other party had hung up the phone neatly, and there was only a busy sound left in the receiver. He hung up the phone with a frown, and turned his head to meet Shen Ruochu's eyes.

The big black and white eyes blinked twice, and then their mouths pursed, a little unhappy, "Jiang Xinyue, is it." "Affirmative, not interrogative.

Jing Yan's face was slightly pale. He nodded at her without hesitation.

"If you're in a hurry, go ahead."

Her rare empathy made Jing Yan uncomfortable for a moment. He smiled, brushed away a clump of hair stuck to her cheek, took the bottle from her hand, and whispered, "No big deal." ”

Shen Ruochu met his gaze, his gaze was momentary, and his expression was full of seriousness, "Go ahead, I don't mind." "Since I married Jing Yan to the present, I have never seen him with such an expression just now. How so...... There was a slight hint of pain in the solemnity, and there were other things mixed in with that. In short, she felt bad, but she couldn't describe it.

Jing Yan looked at her and didn't speak.

"Ann, la, a!" Shen Ruochu waved his hand heroically, "You don't have to worry about me." There was a driver to drop me off, nothing would have been a problem. I heard it all, didn't she say I'll wait for you for an hour? It's not enough to catch up with the traffic jam and delay the road! ”

"Okay." Jing Yan no longer insisted, "I'll send you to the car, pay attention alone." After saying that, he picked up something with one hand and helped her away with the other.

…………

The training center where Shen Ruochu took a yoga class is about a 40-minute drive from Jiang Xinyue's residence. Jing Yan has a spare key to this apartment. But he pressed the doorbell anyway.

When the door opened, Jiang Xinyue's delicate face was slowly revealed. The big wavy hair hanging in the middle of the hair was curled up today, and the peach hairpin fixed the bun obliquely at the back of the head, leaving a strand that just hung down to the collarbone, which was indescribably charming.

"Sit casually." She smiled at the person outside the door, then turned around gracefully, and said softly as she walked back to the living room: "I made tea, the best Wuyi Mountain big red robe." Have a drink. ”

Jing Yan was silent. He stood outside the door and pestle for a while before closing the door and entering.

Jiang Xinyue had already sat back in place at this time. Holding the pot in his hand, his head hanging slightly, he is carefully pouring tea into the cup. Every move is elegant and beautiful, looking at Jing Yan's eyes, there is an indescribable sense of familiarity.

In a very short trance, the figures in front of me overlapped and then returned to reality.

Jing Yan stepped forward slowly, and whispered as she sat down in front of her across the coffee table, "I haven't seen you make tea for many years." I remember back then, when you pestered your mother to teach you the tea ceremony every summer vacation. ”

"yes." Jiang Xinyue responded with some feeling, and her tone seemed to be nostalgic and sentimental, "Aunt always said that tea can calm the mind." But if a person's heart is dead, he doesn't know what to do to make it alive again. As he spoke, he looked up and smiled at him, reaching out to hand over the delicate teacup, "I haven't brewed it for many years." Try it and see how it tastes. ”

Jing Yan took the cup and sniffed it lightly on the tip of his nose before taking a shallow sip.

"Heh......" Jiang Xinyue raised her eyebrows and chuckled, her expression was a little more sarcastic, "You're not afraid that I will be poisoned?" ”

"If you want to poison it, you can do it early in the morning." Jing Yan's expression was calm, but he didn't care much.

Jiang Xinyue's delicate eyebrows raised, "I did it a long time ago." But the object is not you, but the child in Shen Ruochu's belly. ”

There was a crisp "gaba", and the delicate teacup shattered at the fingertips. The porcelain pieces sank into the skin, and the bright red blood beads mixed with the brown tea in one place, and the color was strange.

Jing Yan looked at the person opposite for a moment, the masseter muscles on the side of his cheeks were stiff and tight, and the blue tendons on his forehead suddenly rose. Although he had long been suspicious, although he was somewhat mentally prepared. But many things are like this, if you don't pierce that layer of window paper, and don't put it on the table in a grand way, you never know how much more pain it will be.

He took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the surging in his heart, and after a long time he spoke in a dumb voice, "The sin is not as good as that of his wife and children." Xinyue, I was sorry for you in the first place. What are you coming at me, why should you implicate innocent people? ”

"Innocent?!" Jiang Xinyue asked rhetorically, then raised her head and laughed, her voice was poignant and harsh, "Hahaha......" The next second the laughter stopped, she looked at him with a cold gaze like a knife, and the words were aggressive, "Jing Yan, you told me that you were innocent?" You don't deserve it! Shen Ruochu and the child in her womb are innocent, but what about my child? What about my husband? Are they more than innocent of death? Do you deserve to be a victim of your revenge! Before she finished speaking, she was already in tears, her facial features on her pale face were slightly distorted, and she no longer saw the delicate elegance of the past, "Jing Yan, killed my child, my husband, ruined my right to be a mother and a lifetime of happiness." Do you think I don't know? You designed the game that day! ”

"That's right. You're right. Jing Yan's tone was heavy, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he also fell into some kind of unpleasant memory......

At the beginning of their coming into this world, everyone is pure and clean. Then over time, as the world changes, the pollution is assimilated. Or become sleek and sophisticated, or become negative and dull, no matter how serious, even cynical, there is only hatred and hatred left in the heart.

Jiang Xinyue is like this.

Although her parents died when she was a child, and she experienced the murder of her adoptive parents as an adult, she was still light on happiness six years ago. It's like the sun in the morning, bright and gorgeous, but it doesn't make people feel hot and uncomfortable. Coupled with her beautiful appearance, there is no shortage of suitors.

For example, Ji Jiandong, the leader in the Chinese circle back then. Another example is the prince in the Chinese community back then, Stefen.

After escaping to the United States, Jing Yan returned to school with the help of her father's old friends. Then I work and study part-time, while completing my studies quickly, I don't miss various opportunities to make money. I have to say that he has an almost perfect talent for doing business and making money.

So when he graduated from college, he already had his own career outside the school. It's just that the goal of revenge in his heart is still out of reach.

Until that time, he saw Jiang Xinyue and Stefen together.

Jing Yan still doesn't know how Jiang Xinyue got acquainted with the enemy's son. But one thing is certain...... Stefen's affection for Jiang Xinyue is serious and inextricable.

Although he had never been in love at that time, he had never been in love with any woman. But he is also a man, with a man's instinctive intuition. And this realization made him flash some kind of strange spark in his brain.

Jing Yan has not been entangled, nor has he not hesitated. But if time could come all over again, he would still make the same choice as he did back then...... Use Jiang Xinyue to take revenge.

If you really dig deeper, it's actually just a cookie-cutter story with no new ideas.

Stefen's pursuit of Jiang Xinyue was also vigorous back then. Although she and Ji Jiandong were a couple at that time, they even talked about marriage.

Regarding his son's private life, Chen Xinghan has always been unintimidating. But when he found out that Stefen's feelings for Jiang Xinyue were out of control, he naturally would not continue to sit idly by. At that time, Chen Xinghan did not know the origin of Jiang Xinyue and the Jing family. He only has this one son, and the family business he has laid will definitely not be handed over to others. And a girl like Jiang Xinyue is completely from two worlds with them. Instead of helping Stefen, it will become his weakness and drag him back.
