Chapter 105: This is the drama of the prodigal son's return
Jiang Xu heard Tracy say that he couldn't go back, and a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes, but he didn't speak, but waited for Tracy to finish speaking.
"You have been sitting in the car for so long, I guess you haven't listened to the weather forecast, the big snowstorm is coming soon, you drive to the city now, you will definitely be buried halfway, you don't have to leave tonight, just stay at my house, and help me shovel snow tomorrow morning."
With that, Tracy turned around, walked back to his wrangler, opened the car door and prepared to sit in, Yu Guang saw that Jiang Xu was still in place, and was a little displeased.
"Are you going to go or not? Or do you want to freeze to death halfway? Then I won't stop you, but remember to stuff a note in the car in advance stating that you committed suicide. Otherwise, the police would have found me. ”
The wry smile on Jiang Xu's lips expanded a little, and then, he said resignedly, "Then it's a lot of disturbance." ”
He was indeed hesitant, but in the current situation, he seemed to have no choice.
Jiang Xu got into the car, started the car, and followed Tracy's car all the way into the courtyard of her villa.
Parking the car next to the Wrangler, he turned off the engine and walked down, following Tracy with a complicated expression into the red-brick villa.
-
In the middle of the night, Tracy suddenly said that she was going out, and Seneca did not rush to sleep, but sat in the living room and waited for her to come back.
As a result, Tracy went out and actually brought back a tall and handsome man, Seneca instantly felt full of question marks, this is not in the city, now at this point, it is so cold outside, how can there be people?
"Where did this kid come from?"
Tracy raised an eyebrow and casually tossed the car keys onto the shelf next to the door. Said to Seneca in the local dialect.
"I've picked up another kitten."
Jiang Xu's eyes flashed, obviously understanding, but he didn't speak.
Seneca was interested.
"Oh roar. Maybe you'd be interested in telling me more about this handsome kitten. ”
"Of course, this story is not short, we will go back to the room and tell it slowly, but this kitten seems to have been staying outside, freezing from noon until now, please get him something to drink."
Tracy took off her thick coat, hung it on the shelf, and went upstairs.
Seneca's gossip was aroused, and she wanted to hurry back to her room to listen to the story.
He went to the kitchen and made Jiang Xu a cup of hot cocoa, and when he came back, he saw Jiang Xu sitting upright on the chair at the dining table, he raised his head slightly, and his eyes kept falling on Su Yuli's door.
Seneca flashed a trace of speculation in his heart, handed the hot cocoa to Jiang Xu, and pointed to a guest room at the end of the corridor.
"That room has been empty, you can sleep there tonight."
"Thank you."
After Seneca went upstairs, Jiang Xu held the cup in both hands, he stayed in the ice and snow for a long time, his body was indeed a little cold, and as soon as he entered the warm room, he involuntarily began to greedily absorb heat.
After Seneca went upstairs, the air fell silent, all the doors in the room were closed, Jiang Xu could only hear his own breathing, this was the first time he had been so close to her in a long time. The thought of seeing her tomorrow morning suddenly became expectant, but at the same time, panicked and worried.
When she gets up tomorrow to see him, she will probably be unhappy again, and I don't know if it will stimulate her emotions.
-
As Seneca pushed the door open and walked into the room, Tracy was putting down her hair that she had just pulled up so she wanted to get out, and she grabbed a comb and leisurely smoothed it.
Seneca pulled on his slippers and walked to the bed, took off his shoes and went to bed, and when his head hit the big pillow, he let out a comfortable sigh, he should have been hiding in bed with the heating blowing in winter.
He picked up the book that had just been placed on the bedside table, and was about to continue his bedtime reading, when he suddenly remembered the situation in the living room.
He looked at Tracy, "What's the deal with that handsome kitten you just picked up?" I looked like I was interested in the little lady who lived next to me? ”
Tracy nodded, "You feel it?" ”
"No, I just made him a hot cocoa until I got back to the room, where the man was all sitting there, his eyes staring straight at the door of Sue's room. What's his origin? ”
Seneca thought about whether Su Yuli would be in danger if she was just leaving a lonely man and a widow outside, and her expression was a little worried.
"Wouldn't it be nice to leave him in the house like that? Why don't we tie him up while he's sleeping? Or I'll just go down and knock him out right now. ”
However, Jiang Xu looks very strong, and he may not be able to fight.
Tracy laughed out loud at Seneca's serious appearance.
"No, relax. I could feel that the kid had learned to exercise restraint now. ”
Otherwise, I wouldn't have been guarding outside the villa for a long time, silently preparing to leave without doing anything.
Tracy did her bedtime care and smiled playfully at Seneca by the way.
"That kid's strength seems to be a lot, and I got him in because he could help you shovel snow tomorrow morning. Otherwise, I'd definitely leave him outside to freeze. ”
Seneca was helpless, "You're going to call me." ”
He looked in the direction of the door, and curiosity flashed in his eyes, "I really want to secretly open the crack in the door to see if that guy is still sitting there staring at Su's door." Is this some kind of affectionate crush story? ”
Tracy said leisurely, "No, it's a prodigal son's backplay." ”
"Tell me?"
"Make good use of search."
-
Su Yuli went to bed early the first night, so she got up early the next morning.
She crept out of bed, freshened up, and changed into a long, loose light blue dress. On days like this, when she doesn't go out, she only thinks about how to dress and practice comfortably.
Normally when she gets up, Tracy and Seneca haven't gotten up yet, but today she got up earlier than before, and naturally they still haven't gotten up.
She opened the door and walked out, the snowstorm fell all night, the snow outside buried the old high, and blocked the door, Kaye also took leave for the past two days, breakfast was prepared by Seneca, she actually tried to do it twice, but each time Tracy disliked her that the material was not strong enough, and the taste of the things she made was not strong enough, not to her taste, so she was not allowed to do it.
However, so early today, she decided to try again, isn't it just a fierce material, who wouldn't be.
Su Yuli walked to the corridor, and from her point of view, she could see the kitchen, and she could also see that in the kitchen, in front of the cooking table, there was a man standing, his right hand was shaking slightly, as if he was beating eggs.
Su Yuli rubbed her eyes sleepily, "Seneca? Why do you wake up so early? ”
I don't know if she slept too well last night, early in the morning, her eyes are still a little flowery, this person looks from the back, why doesn't she look like Seneca at all?
Seneca seems to be shorter, his shoulders don't seem to be so wide, and Seneca's clothes are generally brown or dark green, with plaid or stripes, and there is a kind of old-school gentleman's taste, and it seems that he has never seen this combination of white shirt and black trousers.
Jiang Xu's body froze for a moment as Su Yuli's delicate and glutinous voice came from the corridor above the back. The little girl had just woken up, her tone was soft, and she was still hoarse with her dreams, and it sounded like an unconscious coquette.
It had been about too long since she heard her voice, and Jiang Xu's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
The Adam's apple rolled up and down twice, and he hid his emotions for a moment before turning around and looking up slightly at the little girl standing in the corridor on the second floor, trying to make his voice sound as smooth as possible.
"It's me."
In the corridor, Su Yuli saw the face of the man who turned around clearly, and froze directly in place, it was impossible for her to be unfamiliar with his face, but suddenly goodbye in this weird scene, she suddenly felt that this person looked very strange, this feeling was very strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange.
The brain was still in a trance, and her body had already responded.
The little girl took half a step back, her hand off the railing, and she frowned and exclaimed in a low voice.
"Jiang Xu!? Why are you here!? ”
Her brain finally began to function, and countless possibilities crossed her mind in an instant, but none of them could make Jiang Xu appear here reasonably.
Jiang Xu frowned slightly, since she asked, although it was difficult to speak, he still had to tell her honestly that he was trapped outside because he came to peek at her.
Just before Jiang Xu could speak, the door on the other side of the corridor was suddenly opened, and the eyes of the two converged.
Tracy calmly walked out of it, her gaze scanned back and forth on Su Yuli and Jiang Xu a few times, and said lightly.
"He helped a friend of mine deliver something, and it happened to be a blizzard, so I asked him to stay and leave after the blizzard."
After relieving Jiang Xu, Tracy also smiled apologetically at Su Yuli.
"Last night's snowstorm was too big, and I was afraid that he would die on the road, so I let people in, I hope you don't mind."
Su Yuli recalled that when she had dinner yesterday, Seneca did mention that the weather forecast said that there was a snowstorm last night, although she felt that it was still too coincidental, but she now lives in Tracy's house, of course, who Tracy takes in is not up to her, and it would be rude to ask.
"Of course I don't mind."
After Su Yuli finished speaking, her gaze turned back to Jiang Xu downstairs.
Jiang Xu was also raising his head, and his gaze kept falling on her.
The eyes of the two met, Jiang Xu suddenly hooked the corners of his lips and smiled at her, a very gentle kind of smile, so gentle that Su Yuli hooked the adjective gentle with Jiang Xu for the first time.
This made Su Yuli in a trance for a while, she suddenly knew what was wrong with Jiang Xu, he was not like him anymore, his expression looked very gentle, and his surroundings were no longer surrounded by the kind of indifference and alienation she was familiar with before, and now Jiang Xu looked a little like Jiang Yubai.
What's even more weird is that Jiang Xu is holding a big white porcelain bowl in one hand and a whisk in the other at this time, obviously cooking, and his lower body actually has a white apron around it.
Su Yuli had already walked out of the room at this time, and if she turned back to the room now, it would be a little stiff, and after being entangled in place for a while, she still began to go downstairs slowly.
She looked at Jiang Xu suspiciously, and came down from upstairs, what happened to him? Why does it look so weird? Has anyone taken it away?
Jiang Xu also felt Su Yuli's inquiring gaze, but perhaps because they had been separated long enough, she no longer seemed to subconsciously reject him as before.
Jiang Xu lowered his head, controlled his gaze to focus on the cooking table in front of him, and said softly.
"Breakfast was right away."
"Oh......"
Su Yuli originally wanted to be polite and ask if she wanted to help, but after thinking about it, she still forgot it, she didn't want to take the initiative to stand so close to Jiang Xu.
Seeing that the goal of helping Jiang Xu out of the siege had been achieved, Tracy exhaled softly and turned back to the room.
On the bed in the room, Seneca rubbed her nose and looked at her sadly.
"Too much, right? He actually jumped up by pressing my head, thanks to the fact that I had not had surgery on this nose, otherwise the prosthesis inside must have been flattened by you. ”
Tracy laughed, "Oops, I was in a hurry. ”
