Back in the classroom, Cheng Mingyue hadn't come back yet.

Jiang Wan took out the black umbrella from her schoolbag and quietly observed the students in the class.

Most of them slept on the table, and Zhang Wencai was also asleep.

She didn't sleep and was playing with her phone, no one noticed her, and now was the perfect time.

Jiang Wan carefully stood up from her seat, trying not to make a sound.

She walked around from the back of the classroom to Cheng Mingyue's position, and in the table bucket, there was still the medicine she bought yesterday, and the position had not changed.

Her gaze darkened, she bit her lip lightly, and after a moment of confusion, she slipped the umbrella in.

The liberal arts class in the afternoon was as boring as ever, with endless notes that were not copied until the end of class.

Zhang Wencai complained bitterly and asked Jiang Wan for help.

"Jiang Wan, have you finished writing the historical notes? The teacher spoke so fast that I didn't keep up. ”

Jiang Wan nodded and handed her the notebook, "Here, I'm done." ”

The book is made of a hard shell of cowhide, and the inside is beige paper, the handwriting is neat, and the important places are marked with pens of different colors.

Zhang Wencai held the notebook and worshipped, "Jiang Wan, how did you do it!" She took her own notes and compared, the ants crawled the same words, and wrote them all together for speed, and she couldn't even recognize many words herself.

Could this be the realm of a scholar?

Zhang Wencai admires this quiet and "cold" front table even more, and it is a blessing to be friends with such a perfect goddess.

Just when Zhang Wencai was immersed in writing, she heard someone looking for the goddess in front of her.

"Hey, get your stuff back." Cheng Mingyue walked next to Jiang Wan, shook her hand and threw the medicine and umbrella on Jiang Wan.

The thing slipped to the ground and made a "pop" sound.

The sound attracted the attention of the students in the class, and the two people usually did not intersect at all, and the sudden scene attracted the attention of most of the class.

As soon as Jiang Wan looked up, Cheng Mingyue bent down to her ear and threatened in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "If you don't want me to tell your identity, don't be nosy." ”

Jiang Wan just tilted her head and looked at Cheng Mingyue without speaking.

"What are you doing!" The first to react was Zhang Wencai, she stood up, pushed Cheng Mingyue away, and opened her arms to protect Jiang Wan in front of her.

Cheng Mingyue sneered, glanced at Jiang Wan warningly, and then left the classroom.

"This man is sick." Zhang Wencai was indignant and squatted down to help Jiang Wan pick up the things on the ground.

"She deserves to be beaten, you are just too kind, people like this should not sympathize with her." Zhang Wencai put things on Jiang Wan's desk, but saw that Jiang Wan was silent, and looked at the door of the classroom blankly.

"She wasn't like that before." Jiang Wan muttered to herself, still defending Cheng Mingyue.

In the past, although Cheng Mingyue didn't like Jiang Wan, her personality was not as bad as it is now. She also laughs happily, studies hard in school, gets along well with her classmates, has an outgoing personality, and is a hundred times better than Jiang Wan in terms of interpersonal relationships.

"What's wrong with you? Did you know each other before? Zhang Wencai looked at Jiang Wan's lost appearance, and felt uncomfortable, and cautiously wanted to listen to her.

But Jiang Wan didn't answer, just shook her head, smiled and said to Zhang Wencai: "It's nothing, thank you." ”

Seeing it, Jiang Wan didn't want to say more.

Zhang Wencai didn't ask any more, and gently patted Jiang Wan's shoulder. "Don't be afraid of her, I'll protect you!" She patted her chest and promised.

Jiang Wanwan smiled and nodded: "Hmm." ”

After school in the evening, Cheng Mingyang came to pick up Jiang Wan.

The rain is still falling, and the torrential rain has no tendency to get smaller.

Jiang Wan's head was lowered by the glass, the sound of the rain outside was mixed with the sound of car horns, and it was a rare and leisurely scene on the way out of school every night. She closed her eyes slightly, her brow furrowed to enjoy the white noise.

The car sped all the way in the rain, and after nearly twenty minutes out of the city, the car began to climb the mountain.

Circle after circle of winding roads, with street lights on both sides of the road.

Under the dim street lamps, the rain was dense and urgent. The rain is howling, the wind is hunting.

The Jiang family's villa was built in the "Tanyue Qingyuan" on the top of the mountain, and the maid greeted the door early and opened the door when the car was coming.

The car drove in and stopped at the door of the villa, and the housekeeper waited at the door with an umbrella.

The car stopped steadily, and someone opened the car door for Jiang Wan.

Escorted by the housekeeper, Jiang Wan entered the house peacefully.

Today is the birthday of the old lady of the Jiang family, and the birthday banquet will start at nine o'clock in the evening, and the banquet will be held in the suburbs of Juanan City.

There were still more than two hours, and Jiang went back to his room in the evening.

The maid had prepared the dress to be worn and hung it on a hanger in the room.

Hot water had also been placed in the bathroom, and the dense water vapor filled the entire bathroom, Jiang Wan took off the school uniform and slowly slid into the water.

The body was wrapped in the warm water, and the tiredness of the day was swept away, Jiang Wan closed her eyes slightly, held her breath, and the whole person was not in the water.

The surroundings were instantly quiet, and Jiang Wan emptied herself and enjoyed it comfortably.

After a few moments, small bubbles rose on the surface of the water, and she peeked her head out of the water and wiped the water from her face.

Drying off the water stains with a bath towel, she walked out of the bathroom to change into a gown.

The burgundy dress made her skin whiter, and the skirt dragged on the ground, just the right length, which was not too heavy, but also decently showed a dignified and elegant temperament.

Sit in front of the mirror and paint your own makeup, with your hair simply coiled into a ball, and pick a pair of crystal earrings to wear.

Everything was ready, and there was a knock on the door.

"Miss, the master and the young master are back." The housekeeper was outside to remind him that it was time to go.

"Got it." Jiang Wan responded.

After looking in the mirror, there was no flaw, she got up, picked up a small handbag, and opened the door.

Jiang's father, Jiang Kaiyuan, and Jiang Wan's brother Jiang Zhengwen were standing on the first floor, and the two were still talking about the company's business.

Jiang Wan went downstairs with her skirt and called softly: "Father." ”

The two also noticed her and stopped the conversation.

"Well, let's go." Jiang Kaiyuan ordered: "Prepare the car." ”

The driver was Jiang Kaiyuan's driver, Lin Zhong, a domestic servant of the blood clan, a middle-aged man in his thirties.

Like the housekeeper Uncle De, he is a contract attendant who has been passed down in one line, and he has worked hard for the blood clan from the beginning, knows everything about the blood clan, and is also the most heartfelt attendant.

For such an important family banquet, the entourage can only be the most trustworthy confidant.

Jiang Zhengwen sat in the passenger seat and continued to report to Jiang Kaiyuan.

Jiang Kaiyuan sat in the back seat, listened with his eyes closed, hummed from time to time, or made some suggestions.

Jiang Wan didn't participate either, tilting her head to look at the night scene speeding outside.

The work was almost done, Jiang Kaiyuan looked at his daughter's silhouette, and suddenly asked: "Xiaowan, how are you at school recently?" ”

Jiang Wan was surprised by her father's sudden concern, turned her head, glanced at Jiang Kaiyuan, and then said casually, "It's good." ”

"How are you getting along with your classmates?"

"Okay." She remembered Zhang Wencai, who had always followed her in the past two days, and added: "It's good." ”

"Hmm." Jiang Kaiyuan nodded and instructed: "The company's affairs have been a bit busy in the past two days, so I have something to tell your eldest brother." ”

"Oh." Jiang Wan perfunctorily agreed.

My father has always said this, I have something to find my eldest brother, and I have been busy recently.

Since Jiang Wan's memory, he has never seen Jiang Kaiyuan when he is idle, and after a long time, he no longer insists on his father's company.

At the end of the short conversation, the car fell silent, and all that was the noise was the sound of rain and wind outside.

About an hour later, the car slowed down and drove into the villa.

Entering the gate, there was a huge fountain flower bed, and the car drove half a circle around the flower bed and stopped at the door.

A waiter came and opened the car door, holding an umbrella and escorting the three into the house.

There have been a lot of birthday greetings in the hall, because it is a family banquet, most of them are people from within the family, and a few are leaders of various walks of life in the southern army, or people in power in the military and political circles.

The Jiang family's business is developing vigorously and rapidly in Gunnan, and it almost controls the economic lifeline of Gunnan, so it is not surprising that there will be people from the military and political circles.

As soon as he came in, someone greeted him with a wine glass and eagerly toasted Jiang Kaiyuan.

Jiang Zhengwen was also toasted by two or three friends in his circle.

Jiang Wan is not good at managing contacts, and she is too lazy to deal with interpersonal relationships. So I took a drink and found a remote place to stay.

"Isn't it boring?" Suddenly, someone accosted her.

Jiang Wan raised her head and made eye contact with the man.

He saluted Jiang Wan with champagne, "Hello, I'm Wu Zhe." ”

The man had a smile on his face, looked like he was in his twenties, and was wearing a gray suit. He has a baby face and looks clean.

Jiang Wan's brain spun rapidly, and she finally remembered the identity of this person.

Wu Zhe, grandson of the former mayor of Tunan City.

She raised her wine glass and smiled politely: "Hello, Jiang Wan." ”

"You're so pretty, I noticed you as soon as you came in." Wu Zhe's straightforward praise, cliché opening remarks.

"Thank you." Jiang Wan smiled and thanked him.

Wu Zhe took a sip of champagne, looked around the banquet hall, and asked, "Do you often participate in this kind of banquet, don't you feel bored?" ”

After saying that, he felt that what he said was a little impolite, so he explained: "Well, I mean, is there anything interesting about this kind of banquet? ”

"Because I just came back from the army, it's the first time I've come to play."

Wu Zhe always smiled when he spoke, and he didn't seem to pay much attention to those cumbersome etiquette.

Jiang Wan really thought about it hard, and then shook her head, "Indeed, there is nothing interesting. ”

Wu Zhe raised his wine glass and excitedly agreed. "yes, I'm not the only one who thinks so."

He walked to the chair next to him and sat down, and beckoned Jiang Wan to come over. "Aren't you tired of standing? Come and sit down for a while. ”

Jiang Wanwan lowered her voice and reminded: "The host hasn't come out yet, and the guests can't sit first." ”

"Huh?" Wu Zhe instantly bounced up from his chair, he looked around, and sure enough, no one was sitting.

"And what about this kind of rule?" He looked at the chair in front of him reluctantly, and he could only look at it and couldn't sit on it, which was too torturous.

Seeing his pitiful appearance, Jiang Wan gave him an idea: "If you are really bored, I will take you somewhere." ”

When Wu Zhe heard this, his eyes lit up instantly, and he hurriedly asked, "Okay, where are you going?" ”

It's like a suffocated puppy.

It was the first time to meet such an interesting person, and Jiang Wan was also interested.

Jiang Wan and her father come to celebrate Mr. Jiang's birthday every year, so they are familiar with the structure in the villa.

She remembered that when she came last year, there was a parrot in the flower room in the backyard, and she didn't know if it was still alive.

The two of them walked through the hallway next to the window in the hall and walked to the back door of the villa.

Jiang Wan pushed open the door and asked Wu Zhe to follow, not daring to make a sound as if he was a thief.

The two crept to close the door, then walked along the promenade in the backyard for a while, and finally saw the flower room made of glass.

The flower room was lit up, as bright as day.

"Who?" A shrill voice suddenly rang out.

Wu Zhe was so frightened that he immediately became vigilant, put on a defensive posture, and looked around. "Who!"

"Someone, someone." The shrill voice was repeating.

Jiang Wan smiled lightly, "Don't be so nervous, it's a parrot." She walked to the center of the flower room and pointed to a white-feathered parrot standing on a bird pole to show Wu Zhe.

Wu Zhe fixed his eyes and saw that it was really a parrot.

He exhaled and pretended to be calm and straightened his clothes, "I'm not nervous, it's called conditioning." ”

I don't know whose arm was trembling just now, Jiang Wan pursed her lips and smiled, and didn't tear him down, bending down to tease the parrot.

Wu Zhe walked over and also stretched out his finger to tease the parrot.

"Let you scare me, let you scare me." He put his finger to the parrot's beak in a daze, and when he was about to be bitten, he quickly pulled it away.

The liveliness of a one-person birdfight.

After a while, Wu Zhe was very happy and sad, only to hear him "eh", quickly withdrew his fingers, and rubbed them on his chest.

"You stinky bird, you actually bite me." He pointed to the parrot's nose and reprimanded.

The victorious parrot swayed from side to side and repeated: "Deserved, deserved." ”

Wu Zhe gritted his teeth angrily.

Jiang Wan was amused and covered her lips and snickered.

Wu Zhe was unwilling to be a dignified seven-foot man, and he would lose to a parrot's beak.

He decided to change his strategy and fight again.

Wu Zhe took a few pieces of bird food from the small food bowl next to the bird pole, then bent down with a smile and said to the parrot, "Call Dad." ”

Jiang Wan couldn't help laughing, this boy was really naïve and surprising.

I really didn't expect that one person and one bird could still have such a lot of fun.

The battle was tense, and Wu Zhe tried his best to call the parrot "Daddy".

But the parrot didn't eat it, and either ignored the person, or repeated it: "Call Daddy." ”

After a few rounds, the winner has not yet been decided.

"Call Daddy!" Wu Zhe said angrily, "Dad! ”

"Hey." The shrewd parrot answered in an instant, and swayed happily from side to side.

Wu Zhe's whole person was messy, and he was petrified in place.

The parrot was still happily repeating alone: "Call Daddy, call Daddy." ”

"Xiaobai, don't bully people." Jiang Wan stopped it.

Sure enough, the parrot stopped talking, only the figure of happy swaying remained.

Jiang Wan patted Wu Zhe on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't be discouraged, you will compete again." ”

Wu Zhe looked at Jiang Wan aggrievedly, there seemed to be tears in his eyes, "Let's go, I won't play anymore." ”

Looking at the injured little milk dog, Jiang Wan forcibly suppressed the unkind smile in her heart, coughed lightly, and pretended to look at the time.

"Okay, it's almost time, let's go back?"

"Hmm......" Wu Zhe pouted, nodded wizenedly, and then walked out of the flower room after Jiang Wan.

The parrot's voice continued, "Goodbye, goodbye......"

When the two returned to the venue, the birthday boy had already delivered a speech, the guests had already taken their seats, and the banquet had already begun.

The seats of the Bloods and Terrans are spelled together.

In fact, the information of the blood clan is all registered, and the people who come to the banquet are all high-level officials, so they all know the identity of the Jiang clan, so there is nothing to hide.

The food of the Terrans is exquisite dishes, while the food of the Bloods is a well-cooked steak.

Jiang Wan and Wu Zhe casually found a vacant seat and sat down, and the waiter added new tableware in time.

"Hey, is it good for you to drink that cow blood?" Wu Zhe asked Jiang Wan in a low voice.

"Why, you want to try it too?" Jiang Wan rarely joked once.

"No, no, no." Wu Zhe hurriedly waved his hand, "I haven't drunk ox blood, but when we trained before, we drank snake blood once, and we really couldn't drink it." ”

Wu Zhe recalled, with a bitter face.

"I think it's okay, but we can't eat your food." Jiang Wan pointed to her stomach, "It will hurt." ”

Wu Zhe couldn't believe it, "This is too miserable." ”

Jiang Wan can't be denied.

"And what's the best thing you've ever eaten?" Wu Zhe asked.

Jiang Wan thought for a while and said, "Wagyu? The more expensive the better, but it's no different, the nutrition is the same. ”

Wu Zhe still looked regretful, and he sighed: "It's unimaginable." ”

At two o'clock in the evening, the banquet ended, and the guests left one after another.

Before leaving, Wu Zhe called Jiang Wan.

"By the way, I haven't given you my contact information yet." He took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Wan. "Here's my business card."

Jiang Wan took it, a small white card with a police badge printed on it, and two lines of small black characters printed on it: Criminal Investigation Brigade Wu Zhe, phone 136......"

"Armed police officer?" Jiang Wan just found out that this pampered boy turned out to be a policeman or a criminal policeman.

She looked at Wu Zhe suspiciously, her eyes looking up and down.

"What? Not like? What now? Wu Zhe stood on the board and let Jiang Wan observe.

The body form instantly became standardized, but I had that feeling.

Jiang Wan nodded and said with a light smile: "It's quite similar." ”

She tucked her business card into her purse.

Come and don't be rude, but Jiang Wan doesn't have a business card.

She asked Wu Zhe, "Do you have a pen?" ”

Wu Zhe guessed what she wanted to do, and hurriedly said, "You wait." Then he looked around and ran towards the reception desk.

A gray figure shuttling through the crowd.

Soon came back, with a pen and paper in his hand, he smiled and handed it to Jiang Wan: "Oh, here you go." ”

Jiang Wan took it, wrote a string of numbers on the paper, folded it in half, and returned the paper and pen to Wu Zhe: "This is my phone." ”

"Okay." Wu Zhe took it with both hands, took out his wallet from his pocket, and carefully clipped the piece of paper inside.

"Xiaowan, let's go." Jiang Zhengwen called her not far away.

Jiang Wan responded and nodded slightly at Wu Zhe, "Then I'll go first, goodbye, armed police officer." ”

"Goodbye, Jiang Wan." Wu Zhe smiled, revealing two small tiger teeth.

The two waved goodbye.
