Chapter 69: Just a Key
"That can't be the case." Tang Duyi tightened her eyebrows, and then called Qian Manman, but the result was that she didn't need to arrange the venue tomorrow.
As for the reason, the other party didn't say, and she wasn't embarrassed to ask.
Jing Xiao was naturally satisfied with this result, but Tang Duyi was a little depressed, now she received the deposit and bought things, but she canceled it in front of the door, what is this called?
Seeing her sad face, Jing Xiao reached out and rubbed her head, comforting: "Everything will have variables, don't be unhappy." ”
"I know, but I've bought everything, and I've drawn several versions of the drawings." Tang Duyi sighed lowly, and it was difficult to hide the disappointment in his tone.
Although the other party didn't need her to return the money, this sense of loss that had worked hard for a long time and didn't come in handy in the end made her feel too bad.
On the way back, she was always depressed, and even when she got home, she was not happy.
Seeing her like this, Jing Xiao hesitated for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Gardenia, someone sent you a courier to your home before, do you remember?" ”
Hearing this, Tang Duyi, who was changing clothes in the cloakroom, turned to look at him sideways, blinked, thought about it in his mind, and nodded: "I did receive a courier on the day of my father's accident, is there anything wrong with that thing?" ”
Speaking of this, she suddenly became nervous, and walked quickly in front of him, her eyes full of anxiety.
Jing Xiao looked at her like this, reached out to hold her hand, and said slowly: "Gardenia, I just heard about it, I heard that it was sent to you by your father and his friend, have you seen the things inside?" What is it? ”
As soon as he heard this, Tang Duyi's face turned pale, his pupils shrank a little, and his hands suddenly clenched into fists, "You say, that's what my dad sent me?" I seem to remember that there was a key in it, but I didn't care about it at the time, so I just left it in my hand......"
She thought about it for a moment, but couldn't remember for a moment where she had put the key.
Seeing her panicked appearance, Jing Xiao's eyes were full of worry, took her into his arms and hugged her, and said with relief: "Gardenia, it's okay, it shouldn't be anything important." ”
If it's just a key, that means that Tang Hong has locked things somewhere.
However, even if they had the key at the moment, they didn't know where Tang Hong's place was to hide things, so it was still a dead end.
It seems that the breakthrough of the matter is no longer on Tang Hong, it seems that he still has to start from somewhere else.
Tang Duyi shook his head vigorously in his arms, and his heart became more and more worried, and muttered: "He will never let people send me things for no reason." ”
As she spoke, she broke free from his arms and strode towards the living room, she had opened the express in the living room before, and even if she put it in her hand, it must be in the living room.
Jing Xiao saw her in a hurry, and hurriedly chased after her, "Gardenia ......"
Tang Duyi stood in front of the coffee table and pointed to a certain location on the sofa, "I opened the courier here last time, and that thing must be in the living room." ”
She said as she crouched down to find it.
Jing Xiao looked at her serious search, her eyes moved slightly, and she stepped forward to help her find it.
Aunt Man heard movement in the kitchen, so she came out to take a look and asked, "Gardenia, what are you looking for?" ”
Tang Duyi looked at her and was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Aunt Man, do you remember the last time you helped me receive a courier?" ”
"Remember, what's wrong?"
"Did you see where I put the key inside? Or, have you seen a key somewhere in your home? She asked eagerly, her eyes glinting with anticipation.
Aunt Man frowned and thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "I really didn't see this, I cleaned up the house these days, and I didn't see any keys, it couldn't be that you put it in the box and didn't take it out, right?" However, I've been throwing out your courier box for a long time. ”
Hearing this, Tang Duyi's expression gradually froze, a thick disappointment appeared in her eyes, her legs were weak, and her knees knelt directly on the carpet.
"It's fine." Jing Xiao squatted down and patted her shoulder to comfort her.
Seeing this, Aunt Man didn't say anything more, turned around and went into the kitchen.
Suddenly, Tang Duyi grabbed his hand and muttered, "It won't really be thrown out, right?" ”
Her eyes were red, obviously in a hurry, Jing Xiao stroked her long hair, pulled her up from the ground, helped her to the sofa and sat down, "Gardenia, it's just a key." ”
Listening to his words, Tang Duyi lowered her eyes, covering the self-blame and boredom in her heart, and after a long time, she muttered to herself: "That's right, it's just a key, and now that he's dead, that thing shouldn't be of much use." ”
Jing Xiao stretched out his hand and took her into his arms and hugged her, and said softly: "Gardenia, don't think about it, it's me who is not good, I shouldn't have asked you about this." ”
"Why did you know that my dad's friend sent it to me?" Tang Duyi looked up at him with a small face, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"The lawyer found out when he was dealing with his affairs and told me." Jing Xiao subconsciously lied, and the arm around her back suddenly tightened a little.
Tang Duyi didn't doubt his explanation, and leaned back into his arms and was silent.
"Gardenia, don't think about it, it's just a little episode, forget about it." Jing Xiao gently patted her back, feeling relieved.
At least she didn't tell herself because she didn't know where it came from, and she didn't say it on purpose, and that was enough.
They hugged each other on the couch like that, and they didn't let go until Aunt Man called for dinner.
When eating, Tang Duyi's mood was still relatively low, she lowered her head and picked up the rice in the bowl, her expression was indifferent and she couldn't see any emotion, even when she chewed the food, she was a little wooden, and she couldn't feel any touch on her taste buds.
Seeing her like this, Jing Xiao really regretted it in his heart, he knew that this would be the result, and he wouldn't ask her about it if he died.
For a meal, Tang Duyi didn't know the taste of the food he ate, and Jing Xiao was also hard to swallow.
On the other side, the Yu family villa.
Since she got home, Yu Yuxi has been sitting on the sofa in the living room, listening to the nagging from her parents.
Later, she really couldn't listen to it anymore, frowned impatiently, and snorted coldly: "I've told you many times, this matter is none of my business, I'm already miserable, you can't let me wait quietly for a while." ”
With that, she struggled to get up, and now, even if she was jumping on one leg, she had to jump out of here.
Yu Lianmou was choked by his daughter, glared at her angrily, and was about to scold her, but was stopped by his wife on the side.
"Okay, okay, Xixi has always eaten soft and not hard, don't talk about her." Hua Jing's protector was anxious, and quickly patted his hand and persuaded him.
Yu Lianmou snorted heavily, turned his head and ignored their mother and daughter.
Seeing this, Hua Jing didn't bother to care about her, stepped forward to support her daughter, and coaxed: "Xixi, your father is a knife mouth tofu heart, we are all worried about you, otherwise, you can take advantage of this injury and move back home to live, just to recuperate, and celebrate the Spring Festival by the way." ”
"Mom, I'm quite comfortable living alone, so don't worry about me." Yu Yuxi frowned unhappily and rejected her proposal.
She didn't want to come back and listen to them talk about getting married and having children every day, and it was annoying to think about it.
At this moment, a mocking voice came from the door, "You are indeed comfortable living alone, not to mention this injury, do you have to wait until the next time you die to notify us?" ”
When Yu Yuxi heard this, she became more and more angry, raised her head and glared at him, and said indignantly: "Brother, did you curse your sister like this?" ”
"I didn't curse you." Yu Youfan snorted coldly, clasped his hands around his chest, and said disapprerovitically, "I'm telling the truth." ”
Yu Yuxi was a little disgusted with this brother who was only two years older than herself, rolled her eyes at him, didn't bother to take care of it anymore, and continued to jump forward.
She finally returned to her room, and before she could persuade her mother to leave, there was another knock on the door.
"What are you doing?" She yelled impatiently.
The people outside the door ignored her anger and pushed the door in.
Yu Youfan stood at the door, sneered, and sneered: "The weather is so big one day, I'm afraid I don't need to eat tonight, I'm full of gas, right?" ”
"Brother, do you know why you haven't been able to find a girlfriend?" Without warning, Yu Yuxi threw out a question that shocked him.
"Huh?" Yu Youfan asked rhetorically in a high tail tone, motioning for her to continue.
"It's because you have a long mouth." She complained mercilessly and mocked, "What else are you doing besides hurting people?" So you deserve to not find a girlfriend. ”
Hearing this, Yu Youfan's face darkened, his eyes narrowed, he took two steps closer to her, and gritted his teeth and reprimanded: "You dead girl, are you tired and crooked?" ”
Yu Yuxi raised her chin, looked at it fearlessly, and coldly hooked the corners of her mouth, "Look at you, you don't have a good word in your mouth." ”
The brother and sister are-for-tat, and neither of them will admit defeat, but this is also the norm, and it has been the case for so many years.
Yu Youfan stared at her for a moment, and finally lost first, sighed helplessly, and said: "Okay, okay, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, I'm here to inform you that your car keys have been confiscated, and you won't be able to touch the car in the next month." ”
"Why?" When Yu Yuxi heard this, she immediately exploded, glaring at him angrily, if it weren't for the inconvenience of her legs, she would have jumped up directly now, "It's about to be the Spring Festival, how can I not drive?" You're egging on your parents again, aren't you? Yu Youfan, why are you like this? ”
"Yu Yuxi." He snorted coldly, and a little anger grew in his eyes, "It's because you're disobedient, that's why Dad wants to punish you, don't you reflect well, and blame me here?" ”
As soon as his words fell, there was a sound of footsteps at the door of the room, and immediately, Hua Jing's figure appeared at the door.
She glanced at the two people in the room, twisted and asked, "Xixi, Fanfan, why are you quarreling again?" ”
