Chapter 34: Her indifference is like his
The warm and bright yellow and white lights in the room lined the smile on the corner of Su Yuli's mouth very gently.
Jiang Xu stood in the night and cold outside the courtyard, and his eyes were stung by the warm scene inside the house.
He took out his newly prepared mobile phone, found the previously saved phone book, and dialed Su Yuli's number.
The little girl in the house washed her hands, dried them, and picked them up.
After a while, Jiang Xu thought about it, and Su Yuli's gentle voice reached his ears through the earpiece.
"Hello, who is it?"
"It's me."
The other end of the phone was quiet for a few seconds, and Jiang Xu watched as Su Yuli's face smiled and groaned, and with his voice, it dimmed, and her face was heavy and she frowned.
Jiang Xu's hand holding the mobile phone unconsciously pinched hard, the green tendons on the back of his hand were obviously flare-up, he felt that his throat was a little bitter, and his pronunciation became a little difficult.
"I'm in the small fishing village, can you come out for a while?"
He rarely spoke to her in a consultative tone.
Su Yuli's gaze followed Jiang Xu's words, searching suspiciously in the darkness around the homestay, and suddenly, her gaze locked on a shadow.
The shadow, tall and broad, half-hidden in the darkness, with a thick night on its shoulders.
Su Yuli's whole person was shocked in place, what was this doing?
Jiang Yubai, who was on the side, noticed her strange appearance, followed her line of sight, and was also stunned for a moment.
"My cousin?"
Su Yuli frowned and responded, thinking that it was not a way to puple like this.
"I'll go out for a while."
"Okay."
Jiang Yubai sent Su Yuli to open the glass door of the B&B and walked out, his gaze turned back to Jiang Xu, the two looked at each other, and he felt a strong hostility from Jiang Xu's gaze.
It's interesting.
Jiang Xu has been looking at Su Yuli since the glass door of the B&B was pushed open and Su Yuli walked out of it.
Su Yuli paced in front of him unhurriedly, and he also subconsciously took a few steps forward, wanting to get closer to her as soon as possible.
"What are you going to do?"
The little girl's soft and glutinous tone is cold, how can there be a half-minute warm and sweet appearance.
Jiang Xu twitched the fingertips of the mobile phone, in fact, he didn't know, but this morning, he accidentally noticed that she might be alone with a man, so he rushed over hot-headed.
Before arriving here, he couldn't even confirm whether the man who stayed with Su Yuli was Jiang Yubai.
This is the kind of decision he would never have made before, fraught with uncertainty. Or at least he will collect more information before making a decision, but now, he is standing here, and he hasn't even thought about what to do next if Su Yuli is not here.
He glanced at Jiang Yubai, the soft light in the room lined him with warmth like jade, he was slowly continuing the movements of his hands at this time, he was holding a long cooking chopstick in his right hand and stir-frying in the pot, holding the pot handle in his left hand, skillfully turning the pot upside down from time to time.
The whole is the image of a good man in the family.
Jiang Xu suddenly thought of what Su Yuli said in a live interview with Nancheng TV, 'I like gentle and cheerful boys'.
At the time, he didn't like that.
He clenched his fists tightly, trying to make his voice sound as usual.
"Lili, you and Jiang Yubai, what are you doing here?"
Su Yuli didn't answer his question.
"Why should I explain it to you?"
The indifference and disdain in her eyes were exactly the same as those of him before.
"And, that's for me to ask you, right? Mr. Jiang, what are you doing here? In the middle of the night, come and see the scenery? ”
Jiang Xu's breath froze for a few seconds, and he thought to himself, did it make people so uncomfortable when he used to talk.
It's really, it's panicked.
He took a deep breath, knowing that he really had no reason, and asked Su Yuli to give him an explanation.
He put his hand in his pocket and took something, and then, he spread his palm in front of Su Yuli.
After Su Yuli saw the thing in his palm clearly, he was stunned for a moment, and then, surprise and unnaturalness flashed in his eyes.
Two silver rings lay quietly in Jiang Xu's palms.
It was the ring she carefully selected for Jiang Xu in the past, Hyacinth's Designer of the Year, which means: face the thorns.
At that time, she was still passionately in love with him.
In the night, Jiang Xu's voice was soft, "Time capsule, I'll go and see it." Thank you for giving me the ring, I love it. ”
Su Yuli didn't rush to respond to him, her gaze was fixed on the two simple rings.
The ring is a solid, openwork design on one side, both carved with thorns, one with petals, and the other with half a crown. Romantic and courageous style is the signature of Hyacinth's chief designer, Adam Hatem.
She still remembers that when she first saw this series of rings, she thought it was very suitable for Jiang Xu, but now that she recalled the throbbing and admiration at that time, as well as the pedantic love words she wrote, she only felt stupid and ashamed.
"I didn't give it to you, I just put it in a time capsule."
She chuckled and looked up, her voice mixed with hoarseness.
"It's a shame that you remember this innocuous thing, and you went out to take it out."
Su Yuli was so indifferent.
As if surrounded by seawater, Jiang Xu felt a little suffocated for a moment.
Jiang Xu originally hoped that when Su Yuli saw the ring, he would remember how much she liked him in the past and give him more patience, but now it seems that he was self-inflicted.
He put away the ring and gritted his teeth.
Without further ado, according to Lu Jinghe's suggestion, he began to explain one by one.
"Lili, I came here this time just to explain the misunderstanding between us."
Su Yuli raised her eyebrows, "Misunderstanding? ”
Jiang Xu looked at her solemnly, he knew that what hurt her the most was the bastard words he said in front of Jiang Zhuoyi at the birthday banquet that day.
"The words I said at my mother's birthday party that day were all angry words, I just don't like you to break up with me all of a sudden. In fact, in my heart, I have never regarded you as a ......"
Jiang Xu gritted his teeth and said what Su Yuli had summarized for their relationship.
"Bed buddy."
Su Yuli's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise as Jiang Xu's words followed.
"I shouldn't have said that, I'm sorry, I did it wrong."
He took a deep breath and continued.
"And the matter of your termination, I didn't pay special attention to it before, so I didn't intervene. I know now, and I have notified the legal department of Wanjing Entertainment and asked them to stop the process. Even if you don't like the contract, it doesn't matter if you want to cancel it, you don't need to pay liquidated damages. ”
The night was cold, but the moment the air poured into the lungs, it became a little hot.
"I know you're angry with me, I didn't pay attention to the difficulties you faced in time, and I did something wrong about this matter, I'm sorry."
The indifference in Su Yuli's eyes rippled with Jiang Xu's words.
She thought a little self-deprecatingly, these words, why, the time to be said, is now.
Sure enough, men's self-esteem is a wonderful thing.
Inside the house, Jiang Yubai wiped a freshly washed plate, poured the vegetables in the pot into it, and soaked the pot with water.
He glanced in the direction of Su Yuli and Jiang Xu, wiped his hands on both sides of his pants, took off his apron and hung it up, and turned to go upstairs.
Outside, there was a quiet sound, and Su Yuli's gaze softened slightly.
"Thank you for telling me this."
Jiang Xu saw that her attitude slowed down, and he was about to let go of his heart, but he heard Su Yuli continue.
"However, your current behavior is not only disrespectful to me. Moreover, there is no respect for Wen Wan. ”
Jiang Xu hurriedly spoke, "I really have nothing to do with Wen Wan, I'm because of ......"
"Jiang Xu!"
Su Yuli had no interest in his explanation. Even if he really has nothing to do with Wen Wan, now, for her, it is meaningless.
"Jiang Xu, during this time of separation, I calmed down and thought about it carefully."
She looked at him, smiling sarcastically and honestly.
"Since you follow Weibo, then you should know the situation in my family. Life has been hard since I was fifteen. Every day, I have to worry about whether I will be kicked out of the house tomorrow, or I will not go to school at all. ”
She sighed imperceptibly.
"This kind of me, suddenly one day, there is a person who shows so much kindness to me, what I want, what I want to buy, you will be unconditionally satisfied. I think everyone will fall...... It's a matter of course. ”
"I've thought about it carefully, maybe you were right at the time, Jiang Xu."
Her voice was soft, cooler than the night.
"Maybe, it's not just that you don't love me, maybe I haven't loved you either."
Before Su Yuli's words fell, Jiang Xu had already taken a step forward and hurriedly hugged her into his arms.
His head was buried very low, almost sinking into Su Yuli's neck socket, and his warm snort trembled slightly, spraying on Su Yuli's skin in small pieces.
"Don't say that, Lili, don't say that."
Almost pleadingly, he muffled.
Don't say you haven't loved him, he can't listen to this.
Swallowing his saliva with difficulty, Jiang Xu held Su Yuli's shoulders with both hands and stood up straight.
Under the night, he solemnly stared at Su Yuli.
"I didn't love you."
His heart beat rapidly, and his Adam's apple rolled violently.
"Lili, I love you, I love you."
The moment the words came out, not only Su Yuli, but even Jiang Xu himself was stunned.
In nearly thirty years, he had never felt this way.
The heart, rushing at once, pounded violently against his chest, a sensation that had never been felt before, like a wave, enveloping him, beginning at the atrium, spreading to the bloodstream, and then enthusiastically surging up the dry eye sockets and every capillary.
Anticipating, throbbing, shouting. It's like a teenager who is just starting to fall in love.
Originally, he was just proud to think that Su Yuli was just a canary flying into his palm, and he was enjoying her love from above.
Later, when she was leaving, he realized that he was reluctant, he originally thought that he was probably just used to her company, and he left as soon as he left, it was not a big deal.
But this reluctance is stronger and stronger day by day, and day by day it is more and more panicked and panicked. He finally reacted, and it turned out that unconsciously, he had lost his heart to the little girl in front of him.
What he was looking forward to was to be with her for the rest of his life.
The strange word, as soon as it was spoken, seemed to burst the embankment, and he absurdly and fervently longed to be able to say them to her every day. When you open your eyes in the morning, before going to bed at night.
He stared nervously at Su Yuli's face, expecting her response.
Didn't she ask many times if he loved her?
She cared about that, he knew it.
The original indifferent expression on Su Yuli's face was indeed as Jiang Xu expected, and there was a crack.
"Flutter."
She smiled. There was no joy in his eyes that he expected, but a strange emotion emerged.
"It's so strange that this sentence came out of your mouth, Jiang Xu."
