Chapter 1662 - Can't Refuse
Jones glanced at Xia Jian coquettishly, picked up the wine glass with his slender jade fingers, and said with a silky exhale: "Mr. Xia! From the first time I met you, I thought you were a responsible man. I have a little thing here, I wonder if you can do me a favor? β
When Jones said this, his two ecstatic eyes looked directly at Xia Jian, which made people feel fluttering. Xia Jian is very determined among men, but in the face of a woman like Jones, he is afraid that he will not be able to control it.
"Oh! What's up? Xia Jian asked casually, and the person stood up. took the opportunity to move his body away from Jones. He and Dao, if this continues, what will happen in the future, he himself has no control. As soon as he entered the door, Jones called him Mr. Xia, and now he became Mr. Xia again, and she must be famous for calling him so.
Jones gracefully raised his glass and took a sip of it. Then he smiled at Xia Jian and said: "I especially appreciate your ancient Chinese culture, which is the things that have been handed down by your ancestors."
When Xia Jian heard this, his spirit was violently lifted. Aren't these things that Jones is talking about just artifacts? What does she mean by that? Xia Jian suddenly came to his senses. He tried his best to control his emotions, pretending to be indifferent on the surface.
I only heard Jones continue: "Of course, I'm not an antiquities dealer, and I don't want to make money from this, I'm just collecting, in the current popular parlance, purely as a hobby."
"Huh! It's a game for you rich people, I wonder what Miss Jones meant by telling me that. Xia Jian smiled and asked in a low voice. This is not a child's play, he Xia Jian is a law-abiding citizen, and he will never touch such a thing.
Jones stood up, she walked to Xia Jian's side gently, and whispered, "Don't you have a friend named Wildcat?" β
"Wildcats? I still don't know the person you are talking about, are you mistaken" Xia Jian said with a little surprise.
Jones shook his head and said, "That's not wrong, Wildcat is her nickname, it seems that you really don't know." In fact, her real name is Xie Xiaoya, you should know this! β
Jones's eyes were fixed on Xia Jian, and Xia Jian felt the sharpness in her eyes. He pretended to think about it, thought for a moment and said, "Xie Xiaoya? We really have a relationship with this woman, but she's in prison right now. Ay! You know about her, too? β
"Hahahaha! It's not as simple as a one-sided relationship. Mr. Xia is not honest in front of me at all, don't forget, the provincial capital is such a big place," Jones said with a laugh.
Her words were only half said, but Xia Jian still understood what she meant. It wasn't until now that Xia Jian discovered that the Jones he knew was not simple, and it seemed that what she said was just coming to China to take care of the family's business, which was still a bit different.
Xia Jian thought for a moment and said, "Miss Jones has something to say, just say it, Xie Xiaoya does know me." She's also a mixed woman, so it's normal to be very aggressive, even if she has something to do with me."
"Hahahaha! Mr. Xia is really fast-talking. Well, before she went in, the wildcat had a treasure in her hand that suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and many people were looking for it, but it has not been found yet, I meanβ" Jones paused.
Xia Jian asked in a lost voice, "You mean this treasure is in my hand?" β
"Impossible! Even if you had a skin-to-skin relationship, the wildcat wouldn't give you this," Jones said, laughing.
Xia Jian felt a trace of harm. He almost forgot about the little thing between him and Xie Xiaoya, how did Jones know about it? It seems that this woman is even more terrifying than he imagined.
"In that case, what else do you want me to help you? You don't want to say that you want to invest in our flat city! If that's the case, you're really looking for the right person," Xia Jian deliberately forked the topic.
Jones shook his head and said, "Mr. Xia is so smart, it seems that you mean you don't want to help me as a friend?" Jones lost a smile on his face.
Xia Jian was speechless for a while. He Xia Jian is not an ungrateful person, he has encountered a lot of troubles in the provincial capital, several of which were solved by Jones, from this point of view, it would be too unrighteous for him to refuse Jones.
People actually live in contradiction every day. If there is a contradiction, it must be resolved, and it is impossible not to ask for help. Xia Jian let out a long breath and said, "You say it first!" What the hell is going on, I have to do what I can," Xia Jian's words were very in place.
Jones took another step closer to Xia Jian, and Xia Jian could feel the two softness on her chest against his arm. Jones lowered his voice and almost put his mouth on Xia Jian's ear. She said in a whisper: "You go and see Xie Xiaoya, ask me whose hands this treasure has fallen into, that's all"
This question sounds simple, but it's a bit harder to do. The point is that Xia Jian doesn't want to get involved in such a thing. Since he knew the woman Xie Xiaoya, there have been a lot of things that have happened around him because of this woman. It seems that acquaintance is also an unfortunate thing.
"Mr. Xia! It's a gesture for you, and it's not too much to do it with friends. Then again, you can't stand any involvement, even if this thing is messed up, I'm just a hobby collector, it's a big deal that the treasure is taken away by the state, and I don't have anything either" Jones said, spreading his hands and looking indifferent.
Xia Jian is not stupid, this matter is definitely not as simple as she said. Once the matter is revealed, going to prison will definitely not be avoidable. But if he rejected Jones, he Xia Jian really couldn't do it.
What can I do? Xia Jian hesitated. He kept walking around, and he really couldn't make up his mind. These are the two extremes, and if he doesn't get it, he will touch the law, but if he doesn't agree to Jones's words, he feels sorry for his friend.
Jones poured Xia Jian another glass of red wine and brought it over, she smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Xia doesn't have to be so distressed, you are helping to ask, Xie Xiaoya tells you the best, if she doesn't say it, it doesn't matter, after all, she is inside, we have no way to deal with her"
"You let me think about it" Xia Jian took the red wine from Jones's hand and took a sip of it.
Jones is right, he just needs to ask Xie Xiaoya, as for whether people say it or not, that's Xie Xiaoya's business. This should not be a crime!
Xia Jian thought about it, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Yes!" I'll help you ask her, but something like this is the first and last time for me, and I hope you understand."
"Good! Sure enough, friends, I, Jones, didn't misunderstand you. So be it! I'll arrange for you to see her tomorrow," Jones said happily.
As soon as he heard Jones say this, Xia Jian was even more puzzled. It seems that the procedures for visiting prisoners are quite troublesome. But what Jones said seemed quite casual. He didn't know the woman anymore.
As soon as this matter was finished, Lu Ying walked in with a smile. She smiled faintly at Xia Jian and asked, "Mr. Xia!" How's it going? Our boss is not only beautiful, but also has a big industry."
"Hey! Don't say that, he doesn't look down on me, he says you like the one he likes," Jones laughed as he spoke.
Lu Ying is not stupid, so she naturally knows that this is a joke. She sat down, lifted two empty bottles, looked at them and asked, "Do you want to get another one, let's drink it?"
"No need, you see it's getting dark, I still have some small things at night, I have to go away" Xia Jian said, and reached out to pick up the small bag on the coffee table.
Jones smiled and said: "I have a lot of houses in my house, you can choose one to live in, we can do things together" As soon as Jones said this, Lu Ying couldn't help laughing.
Jones realized the slip of the tongue at this time, and she hurriedly explained: "I mean, you live in my house, we can go to run errands together tomorrow, not at night" She said this, making Xia Jian laugh too. But this woman is still very powerful, Chinese is so complicated, she can also speak so well, it is already very powerful.
"It's more convenient for me to live outside, and there are activities at night, I'll wait for your call tomorrow" Xia Jian finished speaking, turned around and left. Jones asked Lu Ying to drop him off at the gate.
Xia Jian glanced at Lu Ying, he wanted to ask her a question, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back. Anyway, Lu Ying did it with Jones, how could she be honest with him?
Coming out of the villa, Xia Jian stopped the car and went to drive his Daben outside Qin Xiaomin's community. I don't dare to go during the day, so I can only go at night.
The traffic at night was much less, and after about half an hour, Xia Jian found his Daben, and when he opened the car door, he couldn't help but glance back at the gate of Qin Xiaomin's community.
This look surprised Xia Jianmeng, and he saw Qin Xiaomin and a man talking and laughing over. The two of them didn't know what they were talking about, but they were very happy to talk.
Xia Jian hurriedly got into the car and sat motionless. Qin Xiaomin and the man walked over and walked past his car. Xia Jian's eyes were about to fall out, and he watched fixedly as Qin Xiaomin and the man were talking and laughing and gradually moving away.
Here's what's going on. A sense of frustration mixed with loss made Xia Jian's heart feel unspeakably uncomfortable. What's wrong with him? Could it be that he really likes Qin Xiaomin? It shouldn't be possible! Xia Jian explained it to himself, but he couldn't convince himself.
When they were together, he didn't feel anything, but when he saw Qin Xiaomin walking with other men, his heart felt uncomfortable. This should be the taste of love! This feeling was already felt when Xia Jian was in high school.
Just when he was sitting alone in the car and feeling uncomfortable, his mobile phone rang, the call was from Yao Junli, and Xia Jian quickly connected.
"Hey! You're still in the provincial capital! What's going on with you today? Do you know? When I chatted with Ouyang after you left, she burst into tears," Yao Junli on the phone said softly.
