Chapter Twenty-Seven: He, Ah, Chose Someone Else
I rubbed my lips up and down and asked him, "Are you free now?"
I paused and added, "I'll go to you and rent it to you."
I didn't answer the phone at the first time, and after a while, I directly reported an address.
He then said, "You don't have to rush to return it."
Then, he hung up the phone.
I took my phone.
Actually, I hate the feeling of being indebted to someone.
I hesitated, but I still thought that I should go to him and give him the money earlier.
As winter approached and the weather had cooled down, I put on a woolen coat and went out.
I went to the bank and withdrew five thousand, I think it should be about the same.
I put the money away carefully, and then I went to the bank and stopped for a taxi.
The place he said is a bit out of the ordinary, not a very prosperous area, and some drivers don't go yet.
"Girl, where does your friend really live?" The driver asked inexplicably.
"What's wrong? They don't seem to want to go. ”
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that the place is very winding, there are graves nearby, and there was a car accident a while ago."
He turned his head to look at me, "What kind of friend is that?" How do you choose that kind of place to live ......?"
After listening to this, I inexplicably felt infiltrated.
After a long silence, I just replied lightly: "Ordinary friends."
After the car arrived at the place, I found the place Jiang Yuan said.
It is a white high-rise villa, and the periphery of the villa is full of roses and red charm.
There are no people around, and there are no other residents in sight from a hundred meters away.
I can't figure out why he lives here.
But there's always a reason, and I don't want to ask more.
I went up and knocked on the door, just wanting to get the money back to him and go back.
I knocked three times, waited for a while, and no one came.
I raised my hand and rang the doorbell.
After a while, the door opened.
Jiang Duci stepped on flip-flops, a pure white shirt, and black pants underneath, wearing casually and casually.
His lips were pale and his eyes were bloodshot.
A little sickly feeling.
"Why are you here?"
His voice was lukewarm, just pure goodness, but he couldn't hear any emotion.
This is too far from the shrewd and cynical image I saw the first two times I saw him.
I pursed my lips and didn't speak, just took out the wad of money on my shoulder.
Checked it and it wasn't left behind.
I raised my eyes and handed him the money neatly with both hands: "Here, rent."
"Didn't you say you weren't in a hurry......
He whispered, took the money, and put it somewhere casually.
Then Jiang Duqi said, "Come in and sit."
In the hall, there was a smell of smoke, and the sofa was full of cigarette butts.
Jiang Duci bent down, put out the half of the cigarette that was on the ashtray, and then pushed the window open.
After a while, the air was circulating, and I felt a little better.
I sat on the couch, glanced at the ashtray and said, "Look fresh, all smoked today?"
He looked at me with a little more interesting look in his eyes: "Hmm......"
He added: "There are cigarettes on the table, which China can't buy...... If you want, take it yourself. ”
I was stunned for a moment, then shook my head: "I don't smoke."
He curled his lips and looked at me with amusement: "Still picky eater?" This cigarette is very easy to smoke. ”
“…… I don't smoke. ”
"Oh." He walked over and sat down across from me: "Did you just see that?"
"My predecessor was a connoisseur when it came to cigarettes." Ye Jian never leaves the cigarette.
"That's it." He nodded.
"Hmm...... It's inconvenient for you to tell me something? I smiled and looked at him.
"What do you say first?"
I nodded: "That is, Jiang Yuan and his current girlfriend, when will they get married?"
He glanced at me: "What, now you're planning a marriage robbery?"
Marriage robbery?
I don't think that's enough.
I smiled wryly, slowly calmed down, and shook my head: "No, I just want to know."
"What's the use of knowing that?" He asked rhetorically, and then said, "They won't go that far."
"Why?"
"Feeling."
How sure it is, it's actually a feeling.
The little hope I ignited was instantly typed back by these two words.
"Don't believe me?" A mysterious smile tugged at the corner of his mouth: "I feel very accurate."
I didn't contradict him, but I didn't listen to him.
I looked at him, and my tone was calm and a little sad: "Actually, it has nothing to do with me, right?"
"Jiang Wei, do you know that the way you are now, it is very easy to make people angry."
I paused and turned my gaze to him.
"You should show a confident appearance and say that Jiang Yuan must be my Jiang Wei's person in the end. Instead of being as it is now, use the excuse of going with the flow when you are cowardly. ”
His words hit my heart like a rock.
Cowardly?
But in my current situation, what qualifications do I have to jump out?
If I do that, I'm just going to annoy people.
I didn't take Jiang Duci's words, but sat silently and watched him play the piano to the cow.
He was about to say something, but suddenly he coughed, his brow slowly tightening.
I was so confused by his reaction that I walked up to him and squatted down, seeing that his face was not very good.
He pointed in one direction: "The medicine box over there, help me get it."
"Oh, okay."
I quickly passed, and under the big black screen TV, the medicine box was placed in the most conspicuous position.
I held the medicine box, ran to Jiang Duci in small steps, and squatted down.
"What medicine?" I asked him.
I opened the lid, and there were bottles and jars inside, and there were so many medicines that I couldn't tell them apart.
"I'll do it myself, you go to the kitchen and pour me a glass of water."
He dispensed the medicine skillfully and quickly, and when I came back, the medicine was neatly covered with a piece of toilet paper.
He took the cup and took the medicine, but his breathing was still rapid, but it was better than before.
Jiang Duci's sick appearance is the first time I have seen it.
Looking at him, I wanted to say something, but I couldn't say anything.
He leaned back on the couch and slowly closed his eyes.
"You're coming by car?"
"It's not."
I felt troublesome, so I didn't want to drive, so I took a taxi when I got the money.
"And how do you go back?"
I'm thinking about this too.
I can't get him to send me back, he's like that.
So, I said, "The driver who sent me before, I asked him to come and pick me up."
He didn't say anything.
Half-ringing, he seemed to hear my words and said, "It's okay."
He didn't seem to want to speak much.
I glanced at the darkening sky, and then at Jiang Duci.
"He's almost here, I'll go first, you can call me if there's anything."
I paused for a moment and added, "I might be able to help."
He didn't make a sound, it was like he was asleep.
I stood up: "Let's go."
Turned, and then left, he didn't say a word.
I stood and waited for the train at the place where I got off before the station, that is, in front of the gate of the Jiang family.
Half an hour later, I'm still standing where I was.
There is simply no car to sit in.
I glanced at my phone, and at 7:45, the sky had become a dark scene.
Occasionally a few cars came, none of which were for rent.
I frowned and wanted to drip, but there was no car nearby.
I thought to myself, no matter what the next car is, I have to ask if I can take a ride along the way.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have to sleep here today.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly a voice floated above my head, startling me.
"You're going to stand there all the time?"
Jiang Duci smiled at the corner of his mouth.
He also found it funny, and he didn't ask him for any help when he stood to feed the mosquitoes.
He didn't believe it, and the night just let her stand.
But she was really standing there, sitting there an hour ago, standing there an hour ago.
I don't know if I'm stunned or embarrassed to speak.
I turned my head to look at the place where I was sounding, and I subconsciously squinted at the flashlight.
Then, the flashlight's light went out.
A minute later, Jiang Dui opened the door, and the crack in the door was full of light and warmth, which made people yearn for it from the bottom of their hearts.
Jiang Duci stood in the light and said to me, "Come in, it's scary dark outside."
I walked in slowly.
The heating and air conditioning were turned on inside, and it warmed up all of a sudden, and my hands gradually became less stiff.
"Are you in a hurry to go back today?" He asked me.
I tensed my nerves, if I didn't go back, would I still be here?
"Go back."
"But—" His eyes lifted as he looked at his phone, "there's a storm tonight."
I took out my phone and looked, and it was really, orange alert.
Fingers clenched tightly on the phone.
My lips pursed into a line, and I didn't know what to say at this moment.
"Besides, it's dark, and it's easy to have an accident on a rainy day."
He lowered his eyes, slid his fingers up and down in front of the screen, and said nonchalantly, "Let someone send you?"
It was like asking me and himself.
I hesitated: "I ......"
"You can sleep here today, and I'll drop you off tomorrow."
He looked up and asked me, "Okay?"
I glanced out the window, and it was already windy outside.
It is estimated that the rain will fall later.
I sighed secretly, helpless, and said to Jiang Duci: "Why do you always trouble you......"
He chuckled twice, "Maybe I owe you in my last life."
"Owe me?" I couldn't help but laugh: "What can you owe me?"
"Can't say it, money, or life?" He disagreed: "Who knows."
Oh, yes.
A lot of things.
Who knows.
Jiang Duci was sleepy very early, and after telling me which room to sleep in, he went downstairs early and said goodnight.
The next day, I woke up early, but Jiang Du got up earlier.
"Come to breakfast."
He set the milk, toast.
Simple and convenient.
"Do you know how to cook?"
"I can make boiled noodles."
I looked up at him, "Then you usually only eat boiled noodles?"
"How is that possible?"
"What to eat?"
"Takeout, restaurant, or, don't eat."
“……”
Halfway through eating, someone suddenly rang the doorbell.
I stood up: "I'll go open the door."
In front of the door stood a man over sixty years old, dressed in a black orthodox suit, with neatly groomed hair, a sharp nose and sharp eyes, and a sharp threat all over his body.
In addition to him, there is also Jiang Yuan.
