Temperature difference

During the dinner, as always, everyone maintained a superficial atmosphere of peace and harmony.It's just that in the past Jiang Weiming always strictly abided by the table etiquette of not talking when eating, but this night he accidentally broke the principle. if.

It was to Jiang Heyi.

Jiang Yunxing sat across from Jiang He, and when he heard Jiang Weiming speak, he looked at Jiang Heyi eagerly, trying to find out something.

But Jiang He didn't change his face, he still had that expressionless expression, as if he had acquiesced to Jiang Weiming's meaning, but also didn't seem to listen at all.

Due to the presence of both Jiang Weiming and Cheng Xinni at the dinner table, Jiang Yunxing was able to lower his head to hide his emotions.When we finished our meal and went upstairs, we could no longer pretend to be nonchalant.

As soon as he followed Jiang He into his bedroom, as soon as the door closed, he slid into his arms regardless: "What do you mean, brother." Jiang Yunxing opened his bright black pupils, and his voice trembled slightly, "Dad Why did you suddenly mention Fang Yu to you?"

Fang Yu is Jiang Yunxing's senior sister. She is a junior this year. Because of her outstanding appearance and illustrious family background, she is quite famous in the school.

Jiang Weiming and the Fang family have a good relationship. Two or three years ago, the two families had dinner together. Of course, Jiang Yunxing knew Fang Yu.

I couldn't tell the reason, but after Jiang Weiming casually mentioned something about the Fang family, Jiang Yunxing felt inexplicably uneasy.

However, Jiang Heyi told him in that calm almost lazy tone: "Because my task today is to accompany Jiang Weiming, Fang Xizheng and his father and daughter to have dinner, and to see the art exhibition."

Jiang Heyi even pulled his lips and showed a warm smile: "Just now when he mentioned Fang Yu, he naturally wanted me to find time to go out to eat, go shopping, and watch movies alone with Fang Yu."

Jiang Yunxing was stunned when he heard the words, and quickly realized the meaning of Jiang Weiming's actions. Instantly, like a hedgehog, he erected his sharp thorns vigilantly, and like a frightened bird, he hugged Jiang He and refused to let go: "No, no!"

Jiang Yunxing shook his head vigorously: "My brother is mine!"

Jiang Heyi sometimes thinks that probably because he is not a person with many emotional ups and downs, that's why he likes to see Jiang Yunxing lose control of his emotions so much.

He stared at Jiang Yunxing's rapidly reddened eyes, as if he wanted to force him to burst into tears, and added on purpose: "If nothing else happens, Jiang Weiming should really want me to marry Fang Yu."

As soon as Jiang He knew that he had a bad temper, Jiang Yunxing's emotions were up to him.

Jiang Yunxing was flustered, Jiang Yunxing's complexion was pale, Jiang Yunxing couldn't help tears falling from his red eyes, Jiang Yunxing hugged him tightly, trembling and going crazy, but Jiang Heyi didn't feel disgusted at all.

"Of course I won't let him dictate." Jiang He pinched Jiang Yunxing's chin, his eyes lingering on his wet face, as if to appease the agitated Jiang Yunxing, and finally told him kindly.

The implication is that there is a reason for today's obedience.And the only one who can make Jiang He achieve this step is——

"Is it a condition for my brother to meet and have dinner with Fang's family?" Jiang Yunxing asked almost without thinking.

His eyes are big, black eyeballs are soaked in thin transparent water, his skin is very fair, and his appearance is so cute and beautiful that Jiang He thought of the cat named Butter that Jiang Yunxing held in his arms that he saw before dinner.

"Brother..." Jiang Yunxing called him softly, "Can I accompany you to visit Aunt Ji?"

Xu Shi remembered what he had done. Jiang Yunxing was very cautious about Ji Minzi's question, and the tone of the question was obviously timid.

His wet eyes blinked, his innocence was so innocent that it upset Jiang He.Jiang He said without hesitation, and his eyes were cold: "Do you think my mother would want to see you?"

Ji Minzi was seriously ill, and she didn't recognize Jiang Heyi at all in the past two years.Jiang Yunxing had heard Jiang Weiming mention these things by chance, but he kept them firmly in his mind.

Too.Jiang Yunxing thought, Aunt Ji couldn't even recognize her own son, so why would she need someone she had never met to visit, let alone...

Jiang Heyi didn't seem to want him to see Ji Minzi insane.

"Then, if I don't go in, I'll wait for brother outside the nursing home, okay?"

Jiang Yunxing's tone was soft and waxy, and the pupils of his dark and moist pupils were full of innocent dependence.Jiang He stared at those beautiful eyes that were very similar to Cheng Xinni with a half-smile, and thought absently, if they were dug out, Jiang Yunxing would never look at him like this again.

In the end, of course, Jiang Yunxing was not brought along.

The next day Jiang He got together very early, and the driver arranged by Jiang Weiming was also waiting outside the door early.The wind was a bit strong in the morning, the driver sat in the car to keep warm, until the door was opened, Jiang He with cold eyes went down the stairs unhurriedly, the driver quickly got out of the car, walked around to the back and opened the door.

The driver's surname is Lin. In the past few years, every time Jiang He met with Ji Minzi in the nursing home, he picked him up——

Jiang Weiming would not let Jiang Heyi go to see Ji Minzi alone, nor would he easily agree to him going to the nursing home. Therefore, if Jiang Weiming hadn't instructed him, no one would let him step in even if Jiang He arrived at the gate of the nursing home. half a step.

In fact, every meeting between him and Ji Minzi was not easy.

It is not accurate to say that they met each other, it was just his one-sided visit.

It was a gloomy day, the sky was gray and white, and it seemed to be raining.Jiang He leaned against the back of the chair as if he had let go of his strength, turned his face and stared coldly at the gray clouds outside the car window that seemed to be falling, and suddenly missed the winter in S City.

The winter there is always gloomy, and the whole city seems to be covered with a layer of gray veil, lifeless and annoyingly cold.

So maybe it's not the city that I miss.When Jiang He thought about it, to be more precise, what he missed was probably that part of the past when his name was Ji Heyi.

At that time, it was not so warm and unforgettable, but the freedom I had at that time was much more than now.

After arriving at the nursing home, it was still Dean Su who received Jiang Heyi.

Facing Jiang He's inquiry about Ji Minzi's physical condition, Dean Su's answer was as gentle and vague as ever. He seemed to say a lot of words patiently and kindly, but in fact there was no useful practical content at all.

She led Jiang Heyi to walk around the garden for a while, and then found Ji Minzi in the rest pavilion with pillars covered with green vines.

Ji Minzi was sitting in a wheelchair, her figure was already a little stooped.The nurse who took care of her sat on the stone bench in the rest pavilion and broke the oranges. Ji Minzi stared at the orange petals in her hand obsessively, and didn't care about other things at all.

As they got closer, Jiang Heyi realized that Ji Minzi had lost a lot of weight.The last time he visited was before he left the country. Roughly speaking, they hadn't seen each other for about half a year.

At that time, although Ji Minzi's complexion was pale, at least she looked mellow, and her condition was not so bad.

But now her eye sockets and cheeks are slightly sunken, her slightly protruding eyeballs are yellow and cloudy, and her whole body is thin and sick that cannot be ignored.

As soon as Jiang He took the orange from the nurse's hand, he broke off a small piece and handed it to Ji Minzi who opened his mouth wide.

She chuckled as she chewed the pulp, orange juice trickling down her closed mouth.The nurse hurriedly took out a tissue and helped her wipe her wet and sticky chin, with a look of impatience that could not be concealed.

It was rare for Ji Minzi to have such a peaceful moment, Jiang He subconsciously touched the mask in his coat pocket, not going to take it out for now.

He leaned slightly and took out two papers placed on the stone table, and said in a calm tone, "I'll do it."

The nurse stepped aside.Jiang He brought the orange flesh to Ji Minzi's mouth one by one, turning a blind eye to the nurse who stood aside and looked at him from time to time with erratic eyes.

Although he has long been used to this kind of scene, Jiang Heyi occasionally couldn't help guessing whether it was Jiang Weiming or Cheng Xinni who ordered these doctors and nurses to monitor their mother and child, overtly or covertly.

However, no matter which one it was, Jiang Heyi thought it was ridiculous.

One of them is an illegitimate child with almost no status, and the other is a crazy woman who is insane and forced to be locked up in a special sanatorium, but to the couple, they still constitute such a serious threat that they are worth being on guard at all times.

The corners of Jiang He's lips turned up slightly, drawing a sarcastic arc.Ji Minzi, who had dull eyes, opened her mouth suddenly, then raised her thin and pale hand, and unexpectedly gently covered Jiang Heyi's cool side face.

The unexpected touch made Jiang He's movements pause, and a very rare expression almost bewildered appeared on his normally indifferent face.His slender black eyelashes fluttered gently, like a butterfly that hesitates and dare not settle easily.

How long had it been since they had gotten along so peacefully?In my memory, apart from Ji Minzi's first two meetings when she first moved here, every time after that, Jiang Heyi almost got hurt at her place.

Ji Minzi was emotionally unstable, not being able to recognize people was normal, and it was not uncommon for Ji Minzi to suddenly go crazy and scream and hit people.

Originally, they didn't meet each other very often, and Jiang Heyi gradually became less afraid of her crazy and hideous appearance.It's just that when I occasionally think of her cold and arrogant appearance when she was not ill, it is still difficult to overlap the two completely different pictures.

For Jiang Heyi, it is unimaginable that the silent and proud mother in the past has turned into this miserable and pitiful state.

To a certain extent, Jiang Heyi's temperament is very similar to Ji Minzi in normal times.

They were equally silent and indifferent.So Ji Minzi hardly ever showed kindness or kindness in memory, while Jiang Heyi never learned to be gentle and dependent since childhood.

They are losers with weak emotional functions and lack of talent. Even getting closer to each other is a difficult task that is not easy to achieve.

So the sudden tenderness is surprising, and it also makes it difficult for people to make appropriate and correct responses in time.

Jiang Heyi stared at Ji Minzi who was caressing his side face with slightly confused eyes, seeing her widen her smile infatuatedly and sweetly, the cloudy eyes seemed to light up instantly.

He heard Ji Minzi's gentle and extremely unfamiliar voice——

"Weiming."

Even though he knew that he looked a bit like Jiang Weiming, Jiang Heyi was still taken aback by the name Ji Minzi murmured.

He originally thought that Ji Minzi hated Jiang Weiming to the core, at least there would be no moments when she whispered the name so affectionately.

When Jiang Heyi was a child, he didn't understand anything, except that his mother rarely made eye contact with him, seldom smiled at him, and sometimes didn't talk to him much at the end of the day.

Maybe Jiang He matured earlier than other children when he was a child, or maybe he had a delicate and sensitive mind when he was young. In short, when he was very young, Jiang He realized that his mother didn't like him.

Too young children can't figure out the difficult problem of "why the mother who depends on each other doesn't like herself".This kind of question can't be found in "One Hundred Thousand Whys". Jiang Heyi has searched carefully.

When he was a child, Jiang Heyi never worried about questions such as "why others have fathers but I don't", "who is my father", etc. At that time, Jiang Heyi's only concern was how to make his mother see more Look, hug him more.

But as he got older, under the influence of Ji Minzi, Jiang Heyi quietly and naturally grew into a personality very similar to her.

Many times, Jiang He thought, probably this indifferent indifference was the only evidence other than the paternity test report that could prove their blood relationship.

Jiang Heyi met Jiang Weiming for the first time when he came to S City to pick him up.But Jiang Heyi firmly believed in Jiang Weiming's claim that he was his father.

Their eyebrows and eyes are too similar, so the first time Jiang He saw Jiang Weiming, he easily solved the problem that troubled him throughout his childhood.

Why does Ji Minzi seldom look at him, why doesn't she love to talk to him, why does she seem to dislike him so much.

At the age of 15, Jiang Heyi finally got an answer that he could comprehend alone without anyone explaining to him.
