Over indulge

After Xu Ke'er finished speaking, Xu Ruining's quiet face said disbelief, and his thin lips parted slightly, with seriousness: "I'll ask again, who gave you the photo."

Xu Ke'er was a little startled, couldn't help swallowing, and still insisted on what she said at the beginning: "Really, really? It was taken by myself. I saw it when I was shopping with my classmates, so..."

Xu Ruining held his breath, not intending to continue entangled in this topic, but turned to ask seriously: "These? Are there? Who saw it?"

"Where...who..." Xu Ke'er stammered and repeated, then? Shaking his head quickly, he said nervously: "Only? Me, Aunt Xu, only? I saw it, I promise I didn't? Show others."

Xu Ruining subconsciously leaned forward from the leaning position after listening to her, and stared into her eyes seriously warning: "I don't want to be seen by the second person." After a pause, she stood up without hesitation, condescending Looking down at her, he added coldly: "Delete it."

"Xu, Aunt Xu!" Xu Ke'er hurriedly got up, but Xu Ruining walked out of the coffee shop without looking back.

Aunt Xu, this? It's...

Xu Ke'er is a bit confused. Is this reaction angry or not, is she angry with Lin Jiayue, or is... angry with herself...

At that moment, Xu Ke'er felt a little panicked in her heart, and she didn't know why.

Why is there a feeling that Aunt Xu would never trouble Lin Jiayue at all, no, no, Xu Keer quickly denied in her heart that Aunt Xu asked her to delete the photos to preserve her reputation, unlike outsiders. , This? Doesn't mean she doesn't blame Lin Jiayue at all.

Now, now, she just needs to meditate and wait. Maybe there will be news that Lin Jiayue will be expelled from the island in the middle of the lake soon.

Thinking of this, Xu Ke'er got a lot of comfort, and sat back silently leaning on the corner of the table.

After coming out of the coffee shop, Xu Ruining got into the car and left, stepping on the accelerator all the way and driving at a fast speed. The pictures in the photos and videos not long ago flashed through his mind, and finally he almost ran a red light. It was too late At the crossroads, Xu Ruining had to brake suddenly to stop. The loud noise caused by the friction between the tires and the ground caused the strange eyes of the people around him.

Xu Ruining hammered the steering wheel angrily, gritted her teeth tightly, her face was reflected in the rearview mirror, her eyes were scarlet, a little scary.

After waiting for dozens of seconds, the red light turned to green. Xu Ruining stepped on the accelerator and set off quickly, passing the car waiting in the same row as her just now.

The 15-minute drive took her less than 10 minutes, including waiting for two red lights.

After the car arrived at the island in the center of the lake, Xu Ruining slowly slowed down. After driving into the courtyard, he stopped the car. Xu Ruining sat in the car and did not get off for a long time. He could not help but take a deep breath to adjust his breathing rate , to adjust the mood.

After going back and forth like this for several minutes, Xu Ruining finally opened the car door and got out.

As soon as he entered the hall, there was an aroma of pastries wafting from the direction of the kitchen. Xu Ruining turned to the direction of the kitchen with a puzzled expression on his face. Because his steps were light, he could hardly notice it if he didn't pay attention. When he came to the kitchen, When Xu Ruining saw the figure of the busy little girl, he felt mixed emotions in his heart.

After a long while, Lin Jiayue noticed Xu Ruining, was startled, and said to her with a busy smile, "You're back, I baked some biscuits, come and taste them."

Seeing her bright and innocent smile, Xu Ruining's heart melted all of a sudden, as if all the bad, uneasy, hesitant, and dark moods dissipated.

"Why do you suddenly think of making biscuits?" Xu Ruining smiled slightly and strode forward.

Lin Jiayue bowed her head and smiled. She was wearing baking gloves and she was sorting some hot biscuits just out of the oven, and explained: "Because you seemed to like eating it that time, so I was a little bored and wanted to pass the time. Make you some more."

Xu Ruining looked at her and smiled, and without a word, he stepped forward and hugged her into his arms. Lin Jiayue was in a daze, her hands were frozen in mid-air, and because she was wearing heavy baking gloves, she couldn't hug her back.

"How can you……"

Before she finished speaking, Xu Ruining interrupted her and tightened her grip: "Don't talk, don't move, let me hug you."

"Oh..." Lin Jiayue responded in a small? small? voice.

After a long time, Lin Jiayue guessed at least ten minutes?So much so that she felt a little sour and stiff when she raised her hands like this.

"That, you..."

Xu Ruining let go of her slowly after hearing this, and said with a smile as if nothing had happened, "Are the biscuits ready to eat?"

Lin Jiayue was stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "You can eat it, it should not be as hot as before."

Xu Ruining lowered his head, glanced at the baking tray, and said, "You feed me?"

"Okay? Ah." Lin Jiayue grinned, and directly picked up a piece and brought it to Xu Ruining's mouth. She opened her mouth to accept it with satisfaction, and then gave her a thumbs up.

Lin Jiayue was very satisfied, "I packed them up and gave them to Aunt Chen and the others."

Xu Ruining nodded? No objection.

Seeing her busy, Xu Ruining decided not to ask, because they trust each other, so there is no need to ask about this matter.

However, there are some people she needs to meet.

When Nanyin just received the news, someone notified her that Xu Ruining wanted to see her, she was surprised, but soon she realized why Xu Ruining suddenly wanted to see her, and Nanyin was not that kind of cowardly person. Since you want to meet, then let's see, the one who should come can't hide after all.

So, two days later, Xu Ruining and Nanyin both appeared in a certain bar in Haigang City. The place was chosen by Xu Ruining. Before Nanyin arrived, she had already drank a glass of brandy.

Is there anyone in the clear bar today except the bartender? There is only one person, Xu Ruining cleared the bar to meet Nan Yin.

This is the second time Nanyin has met with Xu Ruining, and I still can't help but be overwhelmed by her aura. This woman is indeed a man of the hour in Haigang City for the past ten years. Her related deeds have been recorded since Nanyin returned to China. ?, I got a general understanding, and I have to admire her ability in business, but Nanyin still dare not make a conclusion on whether she is Jiayue's lover.

With alienation and vigilance, Nanyin pulled away the chair opposite Xu Ruining and sat down.

Xu Ruining gently shook the wine glass in his hand, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

After a few seconds, he opened his mouth: "Miss Nan, do you know the reason for my meeting with you?"

Nanyin sat up straight, corrected her demeanor, and did not allow any relaxation or laziness to appear. She was silent for a while, and said, "It must be because of Jiayue."

Xu Ruining smiled playfully: "It seems that Miss Nan is quite clear in her heart."

Nanyin smiled lightly, and took the initiative to ask: "Did Jiayue tell you?"

Xu Ruining shook his head lightly, raised his glass and took a sip, then squinted his eyes and looked at the woman opposite, trying to see through her thoughts, "She didn't tell me, but I still know gone."

After hearing this, Nanyin was a little surprised, Gu Zi murmured: "Jiayue didn't go back? Say..."

Xu Ruining had no choice but to say again: "She didn't say anything, and I didn't ask, because I have absolute trust in her. No matter what happens, we trust each other." Xu Ruining paused, looked at Nanyin suspiciously, and then Then he asked, "It's you, Miss Nan, what are your intentions?"

The last sentence directly made Nanyin fall silent, her heart skipped a beat for an instant, and she felt guilty for a second without daring to look at Xu Ruining.

If it weren't for this woman's strong aura, Nan Yin felt that she wouldn't have to be so unconfident in front of her.

After sorting it out in my mind, I took the initiative to explain to her the situation that day: "Actually? I did ask Jiayue to do me a favor that day. I wanted to get rid of the blind date who had been pestering me all this time. Didn't I? I agreed, so I asked her to act as my girlfriend for the time being. In order to act realistically, I held her hand without her consent..."

Speaking of this, Nanyin paused.

Xu Ruining slammed the water glass on the table, his expression serious: "What else?"

Is there a tendency to settle accounts after autumn?

Nanyin lowered her head silently, feeling a little guilty, but this guilt was not towards Xu Ruining, but towards Jiayue.

"I kissed her on the face..."

silence.

Still silent.

Xu Ruining hasn't spoken for a long time, and the two people sitting facing each other are as still as sculptures.

It seems like a century has passed in between.

Finally, it was Nanyin who couldn't bear to break the silence first: "I know, Jiayue is your girlfriend now, I was the one who was rude, I apologize to you, but to Jiayue... I hope she is well, I hope her To fulfill her dream and hope to see her shining brightly, my sincerity and expectation for her will never change."

Hearing this, Xu Ruining bowed his head and smiled helplessly, as if he had no choice.

"It's true that you are Jiayue's teacher, but it's better for the teacher to keep a distance between teachers and students. It is true that you have given Jiayue a lot and taught you a lot. This is true, so this time I can't do anything to you. What, but..." Xu Ruining paused for a moment, then raised his eyes and stared into her eyes, with a sense of warning: "I don't want this kind of thing to happen a second time. Next time, I won't be like I respect you this time."

This time, it was for Jiayue's sake. Since she chose not to speak, she must be afraid of seeing something she didn't want to see.

So, Xu Ruining let her go this time.

Didn't wait? Nanyin spoke again, Xu Ruining got up from the seat, and before leaving, he said a word: "The account has been settled."

After speaking, he strode out of the Qingba.
