Chapter 38: The Qi Machine is Steep
There are celebrities in the reading hall who have been busy for more than a week by using the venue to promote their works.
On this weekend, Lin Xiaoxuan was preparing for the evening reading activity, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Qin Anyu's mother walking by in the courtyard path, and was startled.
Her whole body tensed, but she found that she was walking towards Jiang Qianning.
Lin Xiaoxuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she was a little concerned and didn't know what He Yuxian was doing here, this was not what she should be thinking.
There were a few books missing from the venue, and Lin Xiaoxuan remembered that there were in the office.
Approaching, I vaguely heard He Yuxian's voice: "His father has a very bad heart because of too many changes recently, if he really goes in, I'm afraid that he won't be able to come out alive......"
Lin Xiaoxuan was stunned, and quickly turned around and walked away.
Took two steps and almost crashed into a man's arms.
There was no need to look up, the smell and shape were already engraved into her bones, blood and memory.
She stiffened as if she had lost blood, took a step back helplessly, her legs like lead poured into them, and walked away with difficulty. I didn't dare to look up from beginning to end.
After work, Lin Xiaoxuan returned to her residence.
When you enter the door, first go and turn on the lights.
Before his hand could touch the lamp, the man was hugged and pulled down suddenly.
Lin Xiaoxuan immediately softened in the man's arms.
The person is pressed against the wall, and the sound is infinitely amplified in the darkness.
The shattered sound that wanted to overflow was rudely swallowed, leaving only a rapid drowning breath.
I don't know how long it took.
The man pulled away, and the door opened and closed.
Lin Xiaoxuan's legs trembled, and after a long time, she touched the sofa, hugged it weakly, and squatted and knelt in the dark.
……
Following.
When Lin Xiaoxuan saw Jiang Qianning, she suddenly remembered, and said in the past: "Sister Ning, that university teacher ......"
Suddenly, a happy voice interrupted her, "Director Jiang, Teacher Lin, my family will hold a 100-day wine tomorrow night, if you have time, please come over with your face!" ”
Lin Xiaoxuan turned around, very surprised, she didn't expect that she would also be invited.
This is a member of the reading library, the family is very good, usually come to read is a luxury car pick-up, occasionally her husband will accompany me.
Jiang Qianning generously accepted the invitation and said with a smile: "Okay, it must arrive." ”
Lin Xiaoxuan also took it with both hands and said, "Congratulations." ”
After a few conversations, the lady left happily.
Jiang Qianning returned to the previous topic and asked, "What's the matter, does that person continue to harass you?" ”
Lin Xiaoxuan's face was slightly hot, "No, I'm just ...... I recorded a little bit of what he said before, I don't know if it's useful......"
Hearing this, Jiang Qianning smiled and said: "It shouldn't be necessary, Ah Yu must have dealt with it, last time he was cleaned up so badly by Ah Yu, and he would have come back to make trouble and take revenge under normal circumstances, but you see, I haven't seen him for so long." ”
Lin Xiaoxuan was slightly stunned, feeling as if this was the reason.
The two did not continue to talk on this topic.
Jiang Qianning said: "Tomorrow night's 100-day banquet, you can go with me." ”
Speaking of the 100-day banquet, Lin Xiaoxuan said embarrassedly: "That's troublesome Sister Ning, I didn't expect her to invite me." ”
Jiang Qianning smiled, "There should be more invitations in the future, everyone likes gentle and lovely girls like you." ”
Lin Xiaoxuan blushed and didn't believe her words, but she was grateful for her kindness and said, "Thank you, always encourage me." ”
Jiang Qianning, "I'm telling the truth, you kid is not very confident. ”
Lin Xiaoxuan's face turned even redder, "I'm not a child. ”
Jiang Qianning snorted, "I was led astray by Ah Yu, didn't he claim to be your uncle in front of others before, he really laughed at me." ”
Hearing her mention Qin Anyu again, Lin Xiaoxuan's cheeks tightened, and she didn't know how to deal with it, so she had to change the topic: "I'll go and get busy first." ”
Jiang Qianning nodded, "Go ahead, it's hard work." ”
Lin Xiaoxuan: "It's not hard. ”
……
In the afternoon of the next day, Jiang Qianning found Lin Xiaoxuan, handed her a paper bag, and said with a smile: "I brought you two skirts, I bought them before, they were only tried and worn, it's a pity to put them away, do you want to give them a try?" ”
Lin Xiaoxuan originally wanted to wear her usual clothes to the 100-day banquet, but when she saw Jiang Qianning say this, she knew that she meant well, so she said, "Okay, thank you, I'll try it." ”
Two skirts, one light-colored, gentle and lovely, and the other black, simple and cold.
Lin Xiaoxuan tried to show Jiang Qianning.
"Really nice! You're a little thinner than I used to be, but a little looser suits your temperament. ”
Jiang Qianning said with a smile, and finally pointed to the light-colored one, "Let's wear this one tonight, it's more in line with the festive and warm day of the 100-day banquet." ”
Lin Xiaoxuan smiled shallowly, nodded and said, "Okay." ”
"I haven't been to the beauty salon in a while, so come with me today, go relax, and go to the banquet from there." Jiang Qianning said again.
Lin Xiaoxuan was a little hesitant, "Won't it add trouble to Sister Ning?" ”
She felt that Jiang Qianning was too good to her, and she was useless.
Jiang Qianning laughed, "What's the trouble with this, you're too outward." ”
Lin Xiaoxuan was even more embarrassed, and couldn't help but feel that she was not generous enough, so she had to purse her lips and smile.
She didn't know that with her identity, she really couldn't appreciate Jiang Qianning, and even the ease brought by Qin Anyu doing some work for her before.
Because they don't lack those, they can get cost-effective emotional value just by paying a little for her, while she feels like she owes a lot because she never has it, and she gets it occasionally.
Lin Xiaoxuan experienced a full set of services in the beauty salon, put on light makeup in the back, did not do her hair, but did care in the front, and it looked like her whole mental state was different.
Jiang Qianning looked at her enviously for a while, and sighed: "It's really good to be young, it's not good to look good just by dressing up." ”
Lin Xiaoxuan was very embarrassed to be praised, and said sincerely: "But I think Sister Ning is better-looking, mature and charming." ”
Jiang Qianning chuckled, "You don't understand, at this time, maybe my makeup is delicate and transparent, but in the end, I have lost the aura and innocence of being twenty years old, maybe this is the price paid for maturity, the feeling of vicissitudes." ”
The melancholy in her tone made Lin Xiaoxuan a little stunned.
However, Jiang Qianning didn't stay in this mood for too long, and said with a smile: "Let's go, suddenly I'm looking forward to tonight's banquet." ”
There's nothing new about the banquet.
There are many people who know Jiang Qianning, because she is a famous "independent woman" and divorced woman in Haicheng.
At the beginning, she insisted on divorcing her husband who was also from a famous family a year after marriage, and in the blink of an eye 8 years later, she focused on her career, and she did not remarry even after almost thirty-two.
People always politely compliment her in front of her, but what she says behind her back is the same.
For her, participating in an acquaintance's banquet, the experience is basically like that, and there will be nothing interesting.
But Lin Xiaoxuan is different, she still has many fresh qualities.
She followed Jiang Qianning's side, her eyebrows were like water, gentle and quiet, and she was so young, her words and deeds were very different from common girls nowadays, which was amazing.
Soon someone inquired and learned that Lin Xiaoxuan was Jiang Qianning's employee, and her job on weekdays was to assist famous scholars to teach everyone to read classics.
Jiang Qianning sent a message to someone with a smile.
[Just now, an eldest sister introduced her brother-in-law to Xiaoxuan, saying that she is Chinese New Year's Eve six years old today, and she is a golden bachelor. 】
Lin Xiaoxuan finally managed to deal with a few enthusiastic elders, and suddenly found that Jiang Qianning didn't know where to go.
In order not to look too different, she had to continue to blend in and go to see the baby.
The hundred-day-old baby was held in the arms of his grandmother, and his big black jewel-like eyes looked childishly, so cute that he wanted to melt people's hearts.
Lin Xiaoxuan couldn't help but look at it in distraction for a while.
She didn't know if she would have been so cute when she was a child.
Mom and Dad were still alive at the time, and they must have looked at her with gentle eyes.
Just as his thoughts were wandering, he inadvertently turned his face, and suddenly met Qin Anyu, who came over and stood there coldly at some point.
Lin Xiaoxuan was caught off guard, her heartbeat leaked violently, and when she swallowed her saliva, she almost choked.
Pretended to be calm and picked up the drink and took a sip, but he didn't expect that there were solid particles in the drink, and it suddenly blocked his throat.
She got up and ran to the bathroom, retching a few times to get better.
Later, I didn't see Qin Anyu again.
It was ten o'clock when I returned from the banquet.
Open the door and go in, and press your hand on the switch on the wall.
A cold voice came from the sofa not far away: "Turn off the lights." ”
Lin Xiaoxuan was taken aback, and then pressed the light out again, and froze there.
In the dark, for a while, she felt Qin Anyu's indifferent aura enveloping her side, she palpitated, her breathing was disordered, and she couldn't suppress the belching in her throat.
He reached under his skirt for a moment, but it didn't stop there.
It was only after a long time that he suddenly asked, "Did you take any aftermath medicine that day?" ”
He hadn't talked to her for a long time, and one or two of the accident was not a conversation at all, and suddenly he heard him ask, she was like a world away, her heart was beating like thunder, but she couldn't react, and she was very uneasy: "What? ”
He was breathing a little heavily, and he didn't know if it was exhaustion or what, and said, "I didn't do anything that day." ”
Lin Xiaoxuan finally understood, her qi was chaotic, and she suddenly hiccuped again.
Qin Anyu's hand that fell on her stagnated.
There was silence between the two.
But it didn't take long for Qin Anyu to seem to accept this result that she didn't know the result, and indifferently buckled her waist.
Compared to last time, this time it ended later.
Lin Xiaoxuan wondered in a trance if he didn't know if she was pregnant, so he was much softer.
