Chapter 173: Tonight, Don't Go
Ji Xiao hesitated, didn't answer, and let the phone ring there.
Jing Moxian came over with two glasses of juice and looked at her suspiciously: "Who called?" ”
Ji Xiao shook his head.
Jing Moxian picked up her mobile phone, and the call just stopped, but. He still saw that Shen Zhiyuan's phone was on the screen.
"You're still in touch with him?"
Jing Moxian frowned instantly. He still remembered that a few years ago, Ji Xiao personally admitted that Jing's matter was done by her in collusion with Shen Zhiyuan.
Looking at Jing Moxian's expression, Ji Xiao suddenly remembered that incident a few years ago.
"We were all students of Teacher Lu once, but today at the funeral, we met by chance."
"That's it?"
Jing Moxian's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at her.
"Hmm."
Ji Xiao's "um" didn't seem to have any confidence at all, and she wasn't good at lying, but. subconsciously concealed the chance encounter between her and Shen Zhiyuan on the construction site.
Jing Moxian looked at her and didn't say anything, just stood up suddenly, the weather outside suddenly became gloomy, the wind was very strong, and he muttered for a while before he spoke: "Tonight, don't go." ”
Ji Xiao just wanted to say something, but Jing Moxian said again: "Ji Xiao, we are already married." ”
With that, he strode into the bedroom.
It was still early, Ji Xiao stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. The scenery outside was unobstructed, the wind was howling, raging between heaven and earth, and the dead trees were swaying in the wind and not showing a very bewitching posture, Ji Xiao's heart was suddenly very confused, she didn't know what she should do next.
Before, she was sure that no matter what she did, she was decisive. However, standing here now, she was suddenly confused.
The mobile phone rang again, and it was still Shen Zhiyuan who called, Ji Xiao simply hung up and ignored it.
Shen Zhiyuan was unusually persistent, his name flashed on the screen very persistently, Ji Xiao couldn't bear it, so he had to press the answer button: "Hey." ”
"Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry, just now, I..."
His tone was full of self-reproach.
"It doesn't matter, there were so many people at the time, and the senior brother was also here to protect himself."
Ji Xiao's tone was not without sarcasm. In that situation at that time, almost whoever wanted to help her would be the same as her, becoming the target of public criticism, if it weren't for someone as powerful as Jing Moxian, who appeared there with such a posture, Ji Xiao thought about it now, she was really a little afraid, she was suddenly very grateful, as if every time she was in danger, Jing Moxian would come forward.
Thinking of this, Ji Xiao's heart suddenly softened in such a place.
Of course, Shen Zhiyuan also heard the ridicule in Ji Xiao's tone, and after he was embarrassed for two minutes, he spoke again: "Xiaoxiao, I'll invite you to dinner another day, it's considered to be an amend, okay?" ”
"No need, senior brother, in the future, there is nothing to do, we don't have to contact."
After speaking, Ji Xiao didn't give Shen Zhiyuan a chance to speak, and hung up the phone directly.
Shen Zhiyuan's phone didn't call again, Ji Xiao stood quietly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the sunset on the horizon sink into the horizon, and then watching the neon lights gradually shine in the dark night sky.
A burst of the smell of rice wafted over, and downstairs, someone suddenly walked up, she respectfully walked up to Ji Xiao and asked, "Miss Ji, it's time to eat." ”
Ji Xiao was stunned for a moment, and the person standing opposite was clearly an unfamiliar face, and she had never seen this person at all.
"You are?"
Ji Xiao frowned.
"I'm a temporary worker that Mr. Jing is looking for."
To put it bluntly, she is here to cook, and when they finish eating, she can leave after cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks.
Jing Moxian came out of the bedroom in a linen-colored casual clothes, he seemed to be sleeping just now, and when he came out, his eyes were hazy.
"Done?"
"Well, Mr. Jing, according to your orders, I have done everything."
Jing Moxian nodded, and instructed lightly: "Well, you can go down." ”
Ji Xiao looked at the temporary maid who came and went, and felt incredible, she had been standing here for so long, there was a person at home, and she was cooking in the kitchen, she didn't even know, it seems that the sound insulation of the room is too good, and there are also pros and cons.
Jing Moxian walked up to her, looked at her still wearing her trench coat, and couldn't help asking, "Aren't you wearing so much?" ”
The temperature in the villa was moderate, and Ji Xiao noticed that the clothes Jing Moxian was wearing were very thin, and the room was not so cold at all, so she felt that she was sweating with gusto, and she was sweating so much unconsciously.
Jing Moxian looked at her strangely, "Let's go, let's go down to eat first." ”
Ji Xiao responded, took off Jing Moxian's coat, and hung it on the hanger on the side casually.
The restaurant is on the corner of the first floor, and the dining table is full of dishes, and the aroma wafts over in bursts, and it smells very delicious.
On the table, there were two red candles, and when the lights went out, the atmosphere suddenly changed to a different one.
The servant came over and replied, "Mr. Jing, the villa suddenly has a power outage. ”、
"Got it, then you go back first, and come back tomorrow to clean up."
"Yes."
The maid is a family near the villa, and after Jing Moxian lived here, he hired her.
It's just that he doesn't live here very often, but he will let her come and clean it once in a while.
In the entire restaurant, there were only two red candles flickering, Jing Moxian sat indifferently on the side of the table, and said to Ji Xiao: "What are you doing in a daze?" Sit down and eat. ”
Ji Xiao also sat down and sat opposite Jing Moxian.
The atmosphere suddenly fell into an inexplicable embarrassment, just when she was hungry, Ji Xiao began to bury her head in eating, and she didn't look at Jing Moxian, because there was a secret backlog in her heart, and now this atmosphere made her even more confused.
Jing Moxian looked at her like this, but it was a little strange, and teased her: "You haven't eaten for a few days?" Didn't the company pay you a salary? ”
Ji Xiao shook his head and didn't speak, just buried his head in eating.
Jing Moxian didn't say anything anymore and moved his chopsticks.
The meals were really good, and Ji Xiao was very full.
After eating, Ji Xiao stood up and planned to take a shower, but he was sweating all over his body just now, and his body was sticky and very uncomfortable.
When I stood up, I was stunned to realize that there was no electricity in the villa, and I couldn't take a shower at all.
Ji Xiao thought about it, and still said to Jing Moxian: "Can you send me back to your heart?" ”
"Why?"
Jing Moxian raised her eyebrows slightly, as if she was very dissatisfied with her words.
"I want to take a shower, there is no hot water here, and besides, my mother is home by herself, I don't feel at ease."
"You're relieved that you've left me alone for so many days?" Serving as a farmer.
Jing Moxian's tone was already tinged with a hint of displeasure, Ji Xiao suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, it was the first time he had seen someone who was jealous of his mother-in-law.
However, his words successfully softened his heart, and Ji Xiao's words changed: "I'll call my mother and talk to her." ”
Jing Moxian nodded lightly.
The phone was still upstairs, Ji Xiao went up in the dark, and groped on the sofa again, and finally found out where her phone was, she opened it, and the phone showed that she received a message from Shen Zhiyuan.
Ji Xiao paused, but clicked on it, and there were only three simple words in it - I'm sorry.
She directly deleted that message, and by the way, Shen Zhiyuan's mobile phone number was also blacklisted.
Once, their relationship was very good, but after all, it was already a past, Ji Xiao shook his head and dialed Ji Lingling's phone.
The phone rang twice, and it was quickly connected, "Hey, Xiaoxiao, it's so late, why haven't you come back yet?" ”
"There's something wrong with the project here, I have to stay here all night, Mom, you can sleep first."
Ji Xiao subconsciously told a lie.
"Oh, it's cold at night, you wear more clothes."
"Well, Mom, you should go to bed early."
"Why don't you tell Mom that you're with me?"
In the darkness, Jing Moxian's voice was slightly displeased.
Ji Xiao didn't answer, but suddenly asked him a question: "Mo Xian, do you have no feelings for your mother?" ”
Since he didn't react to Lu Guoshan's death, could she think that in fact, Jing Moxian had no feelings for his mother?
"It's not."
In the dark, Jing Moxian firmly said these two words to Ji Xiao.
For his mother, Jing Moxian even had a deep sense of guilt and guilt, it was because of him that his mother died. Therefore, every year when it comes to his mother's death day, Jing Moxian will always go to the cemetery in person and sit with his mother, who he has never met, for a while.
Ji Xiao's heart trembled, and he knew in his heart that the knot between them could never be untied.
A wry smile appeared on her face, but fortunately, because of the power outage, the room was very dark, and Jing Moxian couldn't see her expression.
"Why do you suddenly ask this?"
Jing Moxian sat down in front of her a little strangely.
Ji Xiao subconsciously moved over there, pretending to be casual and said, "I'm just curious, Lu Guoshan's death doesn't seem to have any effect on you, I thought you were really a cold-blooded and ruthless person." ”
"In cold-blooded people, you always have to leave a warm place in your heart, otherwise, life will be too boring, isn't it?"
When Jing Moxian said this, there was an unusual taste in his tone, and Ji Xiao didn't see the expression on his face.
The atmosphere suddenly fell into an inexplicable embarrassment again, and the living room that suddenly lit up made Ji Xiao's eyes feel uncomfortable for a moment, and he subconsciously closed his eyes.
After she got used to it for a while, Ji Xiao pretended to be casual and stood up, "I'm going to take a bath." ”
"Well, wash it up, do you need me to help you?"
Jing Moxian's eyes were full of ambiguity.
Ji Xiao hurriedly waved his hand, "No, I'll just come by myself." ”
With that, she hurried into the bathroom.
Just now, Jing Moxian's words were like pressing another stone in her heart, Ji Xiao's heart instantly became a little heavier, and she found a problem after washing, in this villa, there were no clothes for her at all.
At that time, Ji Lingling asked them to move out immediately, and Ji Xiao took all his things away.
She took a shower, looked at her black clothes on the side, how could she not cross the line of defense in her heart, that clothes had been worn by herself for a day, and she was sweating so much...
After thinking about it, Ji Xiao gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Mo Xian." ”
No response.
Ji Xiao raised his voice: "Mo Xian." ”
After a while, Ji Xiao thought that Jing Moxian hadn't heard it yet, and just wanted to call him again, but Jing Moxian had already appeared at the door, and through a door, Jing Moxian's voice didn't sound real, and he seemed to ask her again, what happened.
Ji Xiao is now about to hate the soundproofing design of this villa.
"You come in first!"
The shower was blocked by frosted glass, and even if he came in, there was nothing.
Jing Moxian pushed the door open, and his voice was ambiguous: "You let me in." ”
"I don't have any clothes to wear."
Ji Xiao said this sentence in a rare embarrassment.
Jing Moxian was stunned for a moment, and then said: "There are only my clothes here, or, you can also choose... I don't wear it. ”
His words successfully made Ji Xiao blush, and she pretended to be calm and said, "Find me a piece of your clothes." ”
"Wait."
With that, Jing Moxian went out.
He doesn't often live here, and only a white shirt is more suitable for Ji Xiao, Jing Moxian put his clothes outside, reminding her that it was not cold outside, and when she didn't have to wear it, Ji Xiao gave him a sentence unceremoniously: "You go out!" ”
Jing Moxian was not annoyed, and went out slowly.
His clothes, worn on his body, appear very wide, and the sleeves need to be turned over a few large folds before his hands can be exposed.
Ji Xiao put on his white shirt, put on a pair of casual pants that belonged to him, and looked at himself in the mirror, Ji Xiao suddenly wanted to laugh, when he used to go to school, when he saw the description in literary works, when girls wore boys' white shirts, they would have a different kind of sexy feeling.
Ji Xiao looked at himself in the mirror, his collarbone was obvious, and a few strands of hair that had not dried were slightly wet on the corner of his white shirt.
She took a few deep breaths before stepping out of the bathroom.
Jing Moxian was sitting in the living room, he seemed to be talking to someone on the phone, his brows furrowed slightly, and his tone was not relaxed.
Ji Xiao only heard sporadically about something, green space, and materials.
She didn't care, and passed it directly from his side, intending to go back to the room prepared for Evelyn and Jing Qian to sleep, but Jing Moxian reached out and grabbed her.
"I'll talk about this matter in detail when I go, so let's do it first."
Jing Moxian hung up the phone quickly, looking at Ji Xiao with deep eyes, his eyes seemed to be with fireworks, very sultry.
Ji Xiao pretended to look at him calmly: "You, what do you want to do?" ”
Jing Moxian's eyes became even deeper, he simply stood up directly, pulled Ji Xiao into his arms with force, and whispered in her ear: "You." ”
