Chapter Seventy-Eight: Breach of Peace
Lu Xiaofan had a sense of disobedience in his heart, and he couldn't tell why. It's just that Judy's room is on top of hers, so the structure of the room should be the same. However, she always felt as if something was wrong. Or maybe it's because Judy's room is so simply furnished. It's not like the princess style of her room, but it takes the Nordic minimalist route, which can be said to be too simple, like a place for men to live.
But she didn't delve into it, but took Ji Zhaojun's hand and slowly walked downstairs to the big study together. After this overboard incident, the plan to return to the city was in vain, and Ji Zhaojun needed to deal with some work.
"I didn't have time to ask, how did you fall into the pool?" Ji Zhaojun walked and looked sideways at Lu Xiaofan beside him.
The latter was surprised, "Uncle Qian came back late yesterday......"
"Uncle Qian?"
"It's the old money of the driver, the newcomer, you've been busy lately, you haven't been home, and you may not have officially met." Lu Xiaofan explained.
Ji Zhaojun quickly recalled the incident of last night, when there was a staff member by his side. A middle-aged man who is not young, honest and inconspicuous in appearance. Oh yes, the day he went home, it was the old money who helped him carry the luggage. At the time, he only felt that he was angry, but Judy was in charge of all the affairs of the family, and he usually didn't have a deep impression of these things.
"You know him well?" He could hear the goodwill in Lu Xiaofan's tone.
"I came to count the family, and it was Judy who sent Uncle Qian to pick me up. At the beginning, I was a little afraid of this house, but Uncle Qian comforted me. Lu Xiaofan remembered the terrifying rainy night when she saw the coffin, and Lao Qian appeared beside her like a savior. "He has always been friendly to me, although it may be because of his work for the family, but he always reminds me of my father. Ridiculous, right? It's a strange feeling. ”
"Well, I understand." Ji Zhaojun nodded.
Human feelings are wonderful in themselves. Some people don't like each other because they don't like each other. But among some people, it may be the same at first sight. There are two who hate each other, and there is love at first sight. And that kind of ...... Inexplicably, I feel very comfortable with her, and I can completely let go of my defense. Just like him and Xiaofan.
So. He really understood.
"Uncle Qian went to the city hospital to pick up medicine for Uncle Ji yesterday, but the car broke down halfway, so he came back late. I guess he probably didn't eat dinner, and Judy didn't allow the staff to come into the house. I just wanted to make him something to eat and send it over. lest he go hungry. My dad just didn't eat regularly. So there is gastritis of Yan zhòng. ”
It took Ji Zhaojun a few seconds to understand who "Uncle Ji" was talking about, and then he nodded and motioned for Lu Xiaofan to continue.
"But in the evening. It's too quiet in the garden, it's scary, I'm timid. Lu Xiaofan was even more embarrassed, "So, I just want to go back quickly, I ...... I use the running one. I didn't expect to run to the edge of the pool, I probably ran too fast, and I don't remember if I tripped or had leg cramps, so it was like that...... Then it fell into the water. She was ashamed and rolled her gaze, "Not only did it not deliver the meal, but it also caused so much trouble to everyone, and Judy was even more hurt so badly, I'm really sorry." ”
She didn't say that she was struggling, she could have called for help, but she saw a female ghost, and she fainted with fright. If she could make a sound, the maid's room was less than fifty meters away from where she had an accident, and Uncle Qian could hear it.
However, I have heard that people hallucinate during their NDE. So how could she say that she saw a female ghost in the Ji Mansion? After all, she has only been here for a few days, and the rest of the Ji family has lived for so long and has not encountered anything strange, but she "summoned ghosts" as soon as she came?
What if, it's really a hallucination?
"You didn't mean to." Before Ji Zhaojun could reply, a sentence came from behind them.
Lu Xiaofan was startled, and when he looked back, it was Jiang Dongming.
"Are you eavesdropping?" Ji Zhaojun immediately frowned, and his look of annoyance was not concealed at all.
"I'm just walking." Jiang Dongming spread his hand, looking innocent, or scoundrel, "You go downstairs, I will also go downstairs." You go in front, I'm just walking in the back. When you speak, your voice inadvertently reaches my ears. Cousin, I know you're upset with me, but I really don't have an auto-blocking feature. ”
"You eavesdrop!" Ji Zhaojun did not listen to the explanation and made a direct judgment.
Lu Xiaofan thinks so, because Jiang Dongming's rhetoric seems reasonable, but it is actually a strong word. However, Jiang Dongming has a skill, but as long as a woman is not actually hurt by him, few people can be angry with him.
Jiang Dongming shrugged his shoulders and said yes.
Ji Zhaojun was about to say something more, but his phone rang, "Wait a minute." He touched Lu Xiaofan's head, took two quick steps, and went into the study to answer the phone.
"You didn't say anything, did you?" When there were only two people left, Jiang Dongming suddenly asked.
Lu Xiaofan was stunned, and the sentence "How do you know" almost rushed out.
"Because I'm observant." Even if there is no verbal expression, Lu Xiaofan's expression can explain it, so Jiang Dongming said directly, "People's eyes can speak, looking at the lower right corner and the upper left corner, that is the memory of the facts." And looking at the upper right and lower left corners, it is a fabrication of facts. You pause when you talk about the cause of the overboard, and you look to the bottom left. Come on, if you have anything inconvenient to say to my cousin, you might as well sue me. ”
"I didn't!" Lu Xiaofan's eyes didn't dare to blink, and his eyes didn't dare to fly around, almost holding his breath to reply.
"You see, staring at the other person while talking can also be lying, because you are craving the other person's convincing." Jiang Dongming flicked Lu Xiaofan's brain, "Don't try to fight with others as a simple creature like you, in fact, you can't even deceive my cousin, if he doesn't care about you too much, he won't notice your concealment." Say goodbye to me, oops, curiosity is dead. Don't worry, I won't laugh at you even if I hear that aliens are trying to kidnap you and you fall overboard in defiance. Even...... I'll believe it. ”
Lu Xiaofan hesitated.
Intellectually, she thinks she can't say it. But I don't know if it's too much doubt in her heart, too deep fear, or Jiang Dongming's demeanor is too tempting, she couldn't help but open her mouth, "I really don't know why I suddenly fell into the water with weak legs, but...... As I walked through the garden, I felt something follow me. I saw a white shadow, but it could also be the flashing lights of a passing car on the mountain road. ”
"The fence is so high, the yard is so deep, you can't flash." Jiang Dongming became serious, "And then." ”
"Then I was in the water and wanted to call for help, but I saw ......"
"See what?" Jiang Dongming lowered his voice and suddenly became nervous.
