The night is over.

Ning Xi woke up from her sleep, feeling that her head was still a little stuffy, she frowned and shook her head.

"Headache?"

Jiang Lu noticed her movements, stretched out his fingers, and took the initiative to help her rub her temples.

Hearing his voice, Ning Xi opened his eyes.

Seeing that she was still lying on Jiang Lu's body, her face was hot, and she was busy shrinking up and pulling the quilt between the two.

"Does it hurt badly?" Jiang Lu stretched out his hand to hug her shoulder, "I asked Xu Shen to send some medicine?" ”

"No!"

Ning Xi hurriedly got up, pulled a blanket and wrapped it around her body, grabbed the clothes scattered on the ground, and fled into the bathroom.

After washing her face, she got dressed and came out.

Jiang Lu had already put on his pants and was picking up his shirt from the ground.

Noticed red marks on the man's chest.

"You're hurt?"

Ning Xi reached out to hold his arm and looked at his chest.

"Isn't this Mrs. Jiang's masterpiece?" Jiang Lu laughed evilly.

At this time, Ning Xi also saw clearly.

He was not a wound at all, but a kiss mark and a bite mark.

Especially on the shoulder, a noticeable tooth mark.

It was only him and her last night, and it was impossible for Jiang Lu to bite herself, and the only explanation was ......

That's what she bites?!

Ning Xi's face flushed instantly, and he was busy letting go of his arm.

"I ...... I'll see if there's anything to eat. ”

Jiang Lu grabbed her arm and dragged her in front of him.

"Mrs. Jiang made me like this, didn't she...... Do you have to take some responsibility? ”

"I'm ......" Ning Xi didn't dare to look at his face, hanging his face and pinching the corners of his clothes, refusing to show weakness on his lips, "According to this, you have to be responsible for me." ”

"That's right......" Jiang Lu thought about it seriously, "then ...... Be responsible for each other! ”

Hold each other accountable?

Why?!

Ning Xi raised his face, "It's not the first time for you!" ”

"How do you know that I'm not the first time?"

"I ......," Ning Xi was speechless, "anyway...... You're not! ”

Someone as experienced as him who can toss her out of control every time, how could it be the first time?

Jiang Lu stared at her for a moment and did not continue the topic.

"I can't wear my shirt, can you help me find a dress?"

Ning Xi glanced at the crumpled chocolate-stained shirt in his hand.

"Wait a minute."

The last time she left, she barely took her luggage with her, and everything else was still at the villa.

Ning Xi walked into Ning Chen's bedroom, found a new unopened shirt, took it and handed it to him.

"This is my brother's clothes, can you try to wear them?"

Jiang Lu took the shirt, unbuttoned it and put it on his body.

Seeing that the back of the shirt was still folded together, Ning Xi stretched out his palm to help him pull the placket.

Her gaze casually swept over Jiang Lu's side waist, and she saw at a glance a slap-long scar on the man's right side of the waist.

The incision of the scar is neat, and it should be a sharp cut.

There are also traces of stitching on the side, which looks shocking.

Ning Xi stretched out his fingers and held his waist, "This is ...... How? ”

Jiang Lu pulled off his shirt to cover his side waist, "It's nothing, the old wound from before." ”

Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Ning Xi didn't ask any more uninterestingly.

There was no one living in the villa for a long time, so naturally there were no ingredients to eat.

The two of them got dressed, cleaned up briefly, and drove away from the villa area together.

I'd rather look left and right, and turn the car to a nearby restaurant where I used to eat.

Order breakfast and sit down at the dining room while waiting.

Jiang Lu opened the computer bag, took out a leaflet from it, and handed it to her.

Ning Xi received it, and the leaflet clearly said "Paganini Violin Competition".

She pinched the leaflet and lifted her face: "What do you mean?" ”

Jiang Lu raised his chin, "This is the most authoritative competition in the violin world, don't you want to try it?" ”

Ning Xi shook his head: "The people who participate in this kind of competition are all young children, and I ...... now Too late. ”

"Even if Fu Jinnian and your brother are friends, you can't let him help you find a lawsuit for nothing, right?" Jiang Lu stretched out his finger and clicked on the leaflet, "If you can get the ranking, there will be a lot of bonuses!" ”

Ning Xi pinched the leaflet and didn't make a sound.

Back then, when Ning Xi participated in this competition for the first time, he was still a high school student.

With her outstanding talent and strength, she went all the way to the championship of the Asian division and entered the semi-finals.

Later, because of that incident, she withdrew from the competition with physical and mental injuries.

This incident is the biggest shadow of more than 20 years.

Every time she mentions this competition, she will ring the events of the year, where is the mood to participate in this competition again?

"If you don't want to participate, forget it, you're so busy now that you don't have time." Jiang Lu pulled back the leaflet from her hand, "Anyway, my husband has money, whether it is your father's medical expenses or Jinnian's lawyer's fees, I can help you pay for it." ”

Fold the leaflet in half and throw it on the table.

"Let's eat!"

The waiter brought breakfast, and Ning Xi took the chopsticks handed over by Jiang Lu, picked up a xiaolongbao and put it in his mouth.

Eating breakfast in her mouth, her eyes fell on the leaflet unconsciously.

She still knows a lot about this competition.

When she participated in the competition a few years ago, the championship prize money was as high as tens of thousands of euros, which is equivalent to hundreds of thousands of dollars for Grandpa Mao.

Now, a few years later, the prize money is definitely going up, more than before.

Even if she doesn't win the championship, even if she can make it to the top three, it's a lot of money.

Whether it is as her father's medical expenses or as Fu Jinnian's lawyer's fees, it can alleviate the pressure of her lack of money now.

In a moment, breakfast was finished.

Jiang Lu got up to pay the bill, preferring to lift his bag and violin.

Glancing at the leaflet on the table, she hesitated for a moment, but reached out with her right hand and grabbed the leaflet and stuffed it into her pocket.

Standing in front of the counter, Jiang Lu turned his face and glanced at Ning Xi.

Seeing the girl's small movement in his eyes, he smiled and did not break it.

Reached out to take her violin and hugged her out of the dining room.

Send Jiang Lu to the company upstairs, and rather return to the orchestra.

Turn on your computer and carefully determine the date and time of the game.

Of course, she also took a special look at the bonus.

In this competition, not only the finals will have prize money, but also the domestic regional competitions will also be sponsored by sponsors.

The prize money is not much more than the prize money of the finals, and the first place is a full 1 million.

Seeing this number, Ning Xi finally couldn't help but be tempted.

It just so happened that Qin Muxian called her to ask her to come to his office.

Ning Xi was busy getting up and going upstairs, and when he came in, Qin Muxian handed him the information on the table.

"This is the information selected by the group, the interview handsome, you go and inform them to come over for the interview on time next Monday."

"Good!" Ning Xi took the information, "In addition, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you." ”

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"I ......," Ning Xi coughed lightly, "I want to participate in the Paganini Violin Competition, and I may take a few days off then, you see...... May I? ”

"Absolutely." Qin Muxian laughed, "I've heard that you have been shortlisted for the semi-finals before, and it's a shame that you didn't participate in the finals." You can rest assured that the team will fully support your competition. ”

Ning Xi is a contracted musician of the orchestra, and if she can get the ranking, it will also improve the popularity of the orchestra.

This is a win-win situation for the orchestra and the musicians, and of course Qin Muxian doesn't mind her taking a few days off.

"Thank you, Commander Qin, don't worry, I will not delay the normal work of the regiment."

"It's okay, there haven't been many performances in the troupe recently, you can take a little time for me to concentrate on preparing for the competition, but ......" Qin Muxian gently reminded, "Your body is important, don't work too hard and exhaust yourself." ”

"Don't worry, I know."

Holding the information sheet, he saluted Qin Muxian, and walked out of his office briskly.

When she returned to her office, she immediately entered the competition website and carefully filled in her information.

Fill out the information form and hover over the "Submit" button.

Ning Xi took a deep breath and finally pressed the left mouse button.

The information sheet was automatically submitted, and she stared at the words "submitted successfully" on the screen, and let out a long sigh.

The withdrawal of the competition that year was also a regret in life for Ning Xi.

This time, no matter what, she had to hold out until the end.

After registering, she took the information of the violinists who passed the primary selection on the table and called them one by one.

The last one happens to be Fu Jinxi's resume.

To be on the safe side, Ning Xi decided to call her again and officially inform her of the interview time.

Dialing according to the phone number on her resume, she casually flipped through Fu Jinxi's resume.

His eyes casually swept over the date of birth column, and he held the hand of the telephone receiver and froze in the air.
