Chapter 8: Murdering My Husband?
In the study.
Xu Hongjun asked a few words about the company, and Xu Du understated the past.
Xu Hongjun didn't care, his focus was not on this, but once again mentioned the marriage mentioned at the dinner table: "You are Zhiyan and Wanwan's little uncle, why didn't you talk at the dinner table just now?" What is your opinion on this marriage? If you have an engagement party, I think you can invite some old friends and don't have to make a big deal, but when you get married, you can be grander, what do you think? ”
Xu Du pinched the cigarette in his pocket, and the tip of his tongue touched the root of his teeth, as if he had committed a cigarette addiction.
"Ask you! Speak! Xu Hongjun kicked him angrily.
Xu Du frowned, the mobile phone on the side flashed a bright light, he scanned the information on it, the light went out, and the blackened screen reflected the deep ink under his eyes, making people unable to see half of his emotions.
He changed his position, double. The legs were slightly together, and he spit out lightly: "Not worthy." ”
Outside the study, Jiang Wanwan's footsteps paused for a moment, she was just passing by, but she didn't expect to hear this.
However, this answer is not unexpected.
Jiang Wanwan lowered her head, a little wave appeared at the end of her eyes, and she seemed to pull the corners of her mouth mockingly, but the moment she raised her eyes, the emotions in her eyes returned to cold silence, and she raised her feet and crossed the door of the study and went downstairs.
The two people in the study didn't know any of this.
Xu Hongjun glared at him, but he didn't refute it, and sighed lightly: "Zhiyan's kid is really not worthy of Wanwan, it's just ......"
What kind of virtue his grandson is, of course Xu Hongjun knows in his heart, but what did he think, and the rest of the words were swallowed back again, and a trace of emotion flashed in his old eyes, which was fleeting.
Xu Hongjun looked at his youngest son, a few broken hairs hung down casually on his forehead, his dark gray eyes were hidden in the shadow of the arch of his eyebrows, which seemed deeper and deeper, and in the warm light of the study, his handsome facial features were particularly distinct, faintly revealing the shadow of his mother.
It's just that over the years, he has gained a strong and compelling aura, and sometimes even he can't guess the mind of his little son.
Xu Hongjun's brows furrowed, and he was a little tired: "Forget it, you go out first, don't forget about the birthday banquet." ”
"Hmm." Xu Duan's voice was low, his voice was as flat as water, he was not shocked, he couldn't shake up the slightest emotion from beginning to end, got up from the sofa, patted the folds of the corners of his clothes, and walked past him to leave.
Xu Du stood outside the study on the second floor, his eyes faintly falling on the two figures on the first floor.
Xu Zhiyan didn't know what to say, causing the girl to glare at him and raise her foot to kick him.
The girl's vivid expression, Xu Du had only seen it seven years ago, but now that she was in front of her, only a stable Jingya was left, he thought that the girl had grown up, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Xu Zhiyan also deliberately stepped forward, a little closer to her, with a ruffian smile on the corner of his mouth: "What are you doing?" Murder of your husband? ”
"Are you ......" Jiang Wanwan frowned, with a slightly angry look of disgust on her face, and just wanted to say something, she was interrupted by the ringtone of her mobile phone from upstairs.
Both of them stiffened for a moment, and they turned their heads to look at the man at the staircase.
Xu Du happened to be standing in the light at the top of the staircase, with his back to the window, but the warm light above his head was spilling, and his face was half-light and half-dark, and his fingertips pinched the freshly lit cigarette, and the smoke rose from his slender fingertips and swirled there.
The other person leaned lazily on the railing of the stairs, didn't look at Xu Zhiyan, his eyes swept over Jiang Wanwan's face lightly, the girl's expression had returned to its former calm, slowly lowered her eyes, and called softly with detachment: "Little uncle." ”
Xu Zhiyan also came back to his senses, a little nervous, a little scared: "Little uncle." ”
Xu Du looked at the girl's tense body, and the coquettishness of her and Xu Zhiyan's fight just now flashed in front of her eyes, and suddenly a low laugh came out from the depths of her throat, and the voice was so soft that no one noticed.
When the ringtone of the mobile phone in his pocket was about to stop automatically, Xu Du finally retracted his gaze and took out his mobile phone and put it to his ear: "What's the matter?" ”
Seeing that he didn't look at it again, Xu Zhiyan breathed a sigh of relief and said hello to Xu Dui: "Little uncle, I'll go to the company first." ”
After speaking, seeing that Xu Duan did not react, he did not continue to stay here, and rushed at Jiang Wanwan. squeezed his eyes in dismay, and was reluctant to leave.
Jiang Wanwan didn't speak for a while, just lowered her head, looked at the shadow pouring from the staircase on the floor, gently brushed her toes, and from time to time there was a response from Xu Dui's phone call in her ears, as if the time was quiet at this moment, and many small emotions flowed slowly at this moment, which was extremely clear.
The air gradually fills with the smell of aggressive fir trees, with a faint hint of smoke.
"Hmm." Xu Du finally answered, cut off the phone, and glanced at the figure downstairs through the smoke.
Jiang Wanwan always lowered her eyes, and saw that the shadow on the tip of her toe moved, gradually overlapping with her toes, and the black shadow shrouded her body, as if enclosing her in front of her, sensing this, she looked stunned, and when she looked up again, Xu Du had already walked in front of her, and there was only a meter distance between the two.
From this angle, she could clearly see Xu Dui's sharp and smooth jaw line, and further down was the Adam's apple bound by the bow tie, revealing a strong ascetic atmosphere.
But Jiang Wanwan knows very well that when night falls, when the man's tense fingers tear off the tie, it will reveal a panicked sense of oppression.
Xu Du didn't speak, his eyes were as dark as two deep pools, his eyes kept looking at her, sensing her gaze falling on him, a faint itch in his throat, and his Adam's apple rolled gently and silently.
Jiang Wanwan's eyelashes trembled slightly, his eyes slammed into those bottomless black eyes, his heartbeat was wrong, and there was a faint layer of powder at the base of his ears, but then he thought of something, and the scorching atmosphere around him gradually fell silent.
She lowered her eyes, staggered her gaze, and her voice was a little colder, "Little uncle, I have class today, so I'll go back to school first." ”
It's a pity that the girl's tone is naturally delicate, even if she is angry, it sounds a little more coquettish in Xu Du's ears.
Xu Dui's gaze fell on her head for a few seconds, and then she let out an emotionless "um".
He looked at the girl's 'escape' back, and his thin lips pulled up some emotions.
For several days, Jiang Wanwan did not come back, either at school or staying in Wenjungui.
It wasn't until Old Man Xu's birthday came that Jiang Wanwan couldn't avoid it, and chose a long skirt with twilight purple and a looming white calf under the skirt of the fog gauze.
The old man's birthday banquet was at the famous Marriott Manor Hotel in City A, and before the banquet officially began, many families had already come to the hall.
Jiang Wanwan glanced at the message she had just received on her phone.
It was Xu Zhiyan who said that he might not arrive until a while, and asked her to help cover in front of his grandfather.
