come to my office after get off work

Ji Lianxing closed the door with a bang, she leaned against the door and gasped for breath, unable to calm down for a long time.

Her line of sight extends from the living room to the balcony, where there is a framed painting of a watercolor painting she painted last week. It is a hedgehog standing in the sun, which is still a half-finished product.

Ji Lianxing moved his eyes away, changed into his slippers, and went to the water dispenser to get a glass of cold water.

Feeling cool, let go of the irritability in my heart, sat on the sofa for a while, and finally calmed down a little.

Then dragged his tired body to the bathroom to take a bath, turned on the faucet to fill the bathtub with warm water, Ji Lianxing took off his clothes and stepped into the water with bare feet.

In the mist, she lay in the water in a daze.

Jiang Shu was still in his mind.

What Jiang Shu said just now, her expression, and her clingy behavior made Ji Lianxing feel that she was pulled back two years ago. Jiang Shu was also like this at that time. She did not hide her heart. It's always unintentionally provocative, and after such a long time, the feeling is still exactly the same.

Ji Lianxing thought that they would gradually drift away, but when Jiang Shu appeared again, those pictures were still so clear.

As if it was just yesterday, people had the illusion that the separation of these two years was just a short afternoon nap, and when she woke up, Jiang Shu was still by her side.

So time really can't dilute those things?For example, she likes Jiang Shu.

When choosing to love someone, one foot has already stepped into the endless abyss, and choosing to forget for a long time is just a futile struggle?

Was Jiang Shu really drugged by Lan Yue?Is Jiang Shu also a victim?So have been misunderstanding each other?Are those disappointments fake?

Ji Lianxing took a handful of water and brushed it on her face, buried her face in her palm, and then slid down, her whole face fell into the water, trying to wake her up in this way, but the shadow of the devil kept circling In my head, it's like holding her head down so that she can't breathe in the water.

Meanwhile, downstairs.

The night in Luberry County was very quiet. Jiang Shu lay sideways on the bed with the window half closed. She stared out the window, watching the stars twinkling in the night sky. The sky was full of stars, as if salt was sprinkled on a piece of black cardboard.

Accompanied by the chirping of cicadas outside the window, one after another, those humming sounds finally turned into a long long chirping.

Jiang Shu stared out the window in a daze. It has been a long time since he felt such a natural life. There is no such a pleasant night in the city. Most of the time, he can only hear the sound of the car horn. If he lives on a higher floor, even cicadas will sing It's hard to hear.

The star in her line of sight twinkled, and at this moment a gust of wind blew, blowing the tulle curtains, and the wind was mixed with the smell of soil and grass, Jiang Shu closed his eyes, feeling unprecedentedly relaxed.

Ji Lianxing's mind is full, even if they are not in the same room, as long as they know where she is, the long-lost sense of security finally returns, and finally they meet again, even in such an accidental way.

I thought, no matter what, I can't let her run away this time.

It was late at night, and Jiang Shu finally fell asleep with the company of the moonlight...

In the morning, a bell rang outside the window.

Jiang Shu's sleep was very light, and she woke up around five or six o'clock. When she opened her eyes, she was in a trance for a moment. Looking at the strange pattern on the ceiling, she thought about where she was for a second, until the bell downstairs The sound rang again...

Listen carefully, it is the sound of bells mixed with the rhythmic sound of horseshoes, da da da, jingling jingling, it should be the early morning coachman and horse.

Only then did Jiang Shu wake up completely, and turned to look out the window. It was still dark, and his eyes stretched out. The black sky and the black mountain merged into one. The sky and the mountain seemed to be embracing, as beautiful as a single A close-up realistic ink painting.

The horse walked away, and the homestay suddenly became very quiet. Jiang Shu lay on the bed, listening to the sound quietly. There was a slight noise downstairs, and he didn't know where the sound came from.

She got up, it was a bit cold here in the morning, Jiang Shu put on his clothes and went downstairs, when he arrived at the hall, he found the kitchen in the backyard was emitting smoke, it seemed that the cook was making breakfast, probably for the early risers.

Walking towards the backyard, I found a black dog and a white cat in the yard. The white cat was very similar to the one she kept at home. It was not afraid of strangers at all. The white cat had different eyes and had a very proud temperament.

The white cat was fighting with the black dog, and Jiang Shu stood aside to watch the fun, touching them occasionally.

"Rats and mice, come and eat~" A chef walked out of the kitchen, holding a plate in his hand and sipping at the two, he put down the bowl, knocked on the ground a few times, and the two little ones escaped from Jiang Shu's clutches , Happy to eat breakfast.

Jiang Shu frowned, suspecting that he had heard it wrong, "What are the cats and dogs called?"

"Rats and mice, dogs are rats, cats are mice." The master patiently explained.

"Which mouse?"

The master chuckled, "Mouse's mouse! Our boss named it."

For a moment, Jiang Shu didn't know what to say. Should he cry or laugh?

She looked up at the third floor and asked the master, "Your boss lives upstairs, right?"

The master nodded.

"What time does she usually get up?"

The master didn't think much about it, and said honestly: "It's usually quite early, maybe six or seven o'clock."

"Okay." Jiang Shu thought to himself that she woke up early today, earlier than the little hedgehog, so that at least he can look at her later, and maybe he can say a few words when he meets her.

So for the next half an hour, Jiang Shu sat in the lobby waiting for Ji Lianxing, and drank a bowl of porridge made by the master during the period.

When it was almost seven o'clock, guests came down from upstairs one after another, some left with their luggage, some went to the backyard to see what breakfast was available, and some leisurely went out to stare at the mountain in a daze.

Jiang Shu kept paying attention to the movement on the other side of the stairs, but he didn't wait for Ji Lianxing to come down.After a while, I saw Xu Shuxia walking from the door instead.Perhaps because of the magnetic field between them, Jiang Shu saw her at a glance, and the other party also greeted her at that moment.

Eyes can tell everything. When Xu Shuxia saw Jiang Shu, he could clearly feel that the hostility in the eyes of the other party was not so strong.

But now the question is what to do?

Facing the woman surnamed Jiang, Xu Shuxia panicked, did she pretend not to see it?Then go upstairs?

It seemed that there was no other choice, so Xu Shuxia avoided looking at each other, tried to pretend that she didn't see Jiang Shu, walked around her quickly and was about to go upstairs, when the two of them were about to stagger, Jiang Shu stopped her :

"Can we have a chat?"

Xu Shuxia's steps trembled, followed by her little heart. Sure enough, the surname Jiang talked to her!

Xu Shuxia wailed in her heart, as a "fake girlfriend", she really could escape the first day of the junior high school but not the fifteenth day!Made a big crime!

It is impossible to go upstairs directly, so Jiang Shu will definitely feel that she is cowardly, so Xu Shuxia can only bite the bullet and sit down.

There was half a meter between the two of them, Xu Shuxia sat upright, not daring to speak, she was waiting for Jiang Shu to speak first, always afraid that she might say something wrong and spoil Xiao Ji.

"My name is Jiang Shu."

Xu Shuxia was startled. Her opening remark turned out to be a self-introduction?It turns out that the rival in love still has to declare his name?

"My name is Xu Shuxia." Xu Shuxia could only continue. She was flustered inside, but she pretended to be calm on the surface. Her tone was neither salty nor weak, at least she could not lose her momentum.

Jiang Shu got straight to the point and didn't hesitate: "You and Ji Lianxing are not lovers."

"Ah...she and I are lovers!" She was so weak that even Xu Shuxia didn't believe it.

She glanced at Jiang Shu quietly, and found that Jiang Shu was looking at her with a smile. When their eyes met, Xu Shuxia's face, who had not lied for a long time, burned instantly.

Oops, Jiang is not easy, you can't play with her!The main reason is that this look is so insightful, I always feel that telling a lie is like dangling in front of her without clothes.

Jiang Shu lowered his head and pointed to Xu Shuxia's right hand. She wore a dazzling ring on her ring finger, "You wear a ring, but she doesn't. So what kind of couple are you? Are you pretending to be a couple?"

Xu Shuxia unconsciously withdrew her hand and covered the ring, but this action undoubtedly confirmed what Jiang Shu said just now.

How stupid!It's revealed!Xu Shuxia wanted to cry but she didn't have any tears in her heart. If she had known earlier, she would not have talked to this woman, no matter what she said, she would be deceitful!

"We are a couple, really, Xiao Ji and I have a very good relationship." Xu Shuxia felt that she was only 300 taels of silver here, and this sentence was a very superfluous explanation.

Hearing this sentence, Jiang Shu was completely defeated and couldn't help laughing, "Well, you two have a very good relationship, so good that one wears a ring and the other doesn't, so good that you don't sleep together, so good that you are like sisters ?"

"Stop talking! I don't even know how to answer you!" Xu Shuxia covered her ears. On the verge of collapse, she and Jiang Shu had only chatted a few words and felt that she had lost her way. If Jiang Shu played tricks again and let Xiao Ji get hurt again, she Isn't it the instigator!

So Jiang Shu cleverly changed the subject: "Then I'll show you something, do you want to see it?"

Jiang Shu is particularly good at arousing the curiosity of others, even though Xu Shuxia thinks it shouldn't be watched, she still can't help asking: "What are you looking at?"

"The video I wanted to show Ji Lianxing yesterday."

Xu Shuxia's face turned pale with fright, she shook her head and waved her hands, "No, no, no, no, I don't watch, I don't interfere in other people's feelings!"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, two words came to Xu Shuxia's head: It's over!

What are other people's feelings!Ji Lianxing is her "girlfriend"!Can a girlfriend call someone else's affection!She is hammering herself!

So in the next second, she saw a smile on Jiang's face.

Xu Shuxia was immediately remorseful, she would lose her words if she said too much, not to mention in front of this woman, she is really a bad woman! !Routine layer upon layer! !Can't play! !Really bad! !

Just when Xu Shuxia's heart was racing, Jiang Shu stretched out a hand, as if he wanted to shake hands with Xu Shuxia.

Xu Shuxia looked up at her, and found that the smile in her eyes was kind.

"So you're her friend, right?"

"..." Xu Shuxia bowed her head, a little frustrated, it's only been a few minutes, is she too good?

Jiang Shu's hand was still hanging in the air, and he didn't take it back, "Don't worry, it's not your problem, I deliberately plotted against you."

Xu Shuxia raised her head, her face full of helplessness, but she still reached out to shake Jiang Shu, "You also know that you are plotting against me."

"Can you help me?"

Xu Shuxia refused without thinking, "I can't." It's not about whether she can do it, but whether she can do it. Xu Shuxia feels that she doesn't have the ability, so she can't do it.

"I'll show you the video." Jiang Shu mentioned this sentence again.

"No, no, no, I can't do it, I won't get involved in the matter between you, really." Xu Shuxia said this, but she was actually curious, how real was that video?It's so sure that Jiang's tone is so firm, is it possible that someone really drugged her?So how do you prescribe medicine?What medicine did you take?There are a hundred thousand whys in my heart that are already ready to move.

"Actually, you want to watch it, right?" Jiang Shu took out his phone and clicked on the video to show Xu Shuxia.

"I don't want to." Xu Shuxia immediately turned her head away, stood up decisively and prepared to leave. Curiosity is curiosity. If you can ignore something, you will be a participant!

As a result, just as the person stood up, he felt a force in his arm the next second, and Jiang Shu pulled her to force her to sit down again, "Only you can help me, just 5 minutes, okay?"

The video was already placed in front of Xu Shuxia, and it had already attracted her attention in the first few seconds.

Don't challenge human curiosity! ! !

Xu Shuxia just frowned at first, and then her expression gradually became ferocious. She saw the woman in the video doing this and that, and every behavior in the video was unbelievable, until those two fingertips were deliberately thrown on the table, and this woman, I don't know if it's because of the public face, but I always feel like I've seen it somewhere.

"#＊@$!!!" Xu Shuxia couldn't help it, and the civilized person couldn't help but spit out the fragrance, "Are you sure this is your friend? Isn't it a crazy critic released from the courtyard?"

"We were friends before." Jiang Shu turned off the unimportant part of the second half of the video, and said, "Now she is in because of mental problems."

About Lanyue, there are too many things that cannot be explained in one word. I heard from Li Xiangyan that she went abroad later and mixed with a group of inexplicable people. She was involved in everything, not only had problems with her head, but also with her body. People play, who is the loser?

Xu Shuxia's expression is still very ferocious, she has never been so speechless in her life, this video is really outrageous, and not only outrageous, but also true.

"I didn't betray her." Jiang Shu explained again.

Xu Shuxia nodded, "Yes."

"Find a way to show her this video?" Jiang Shu tentatively asked.

Apart from being speechless towards the woman in the video, Xu Shuxia still feels a little regretful now. It seems that she has to wade through this water no matter what.

"I think Xiao Ji, take your time." Xu Shuxia also got serious and thought about this matter carefully, "In addition to telling her the result, we also need to leave a time for mutual understanding. You can't expect her to misunderstand like this I put it down for a long time. I think she was shaken last night, but you have to understand that if she sees this video, she should feel even more uncomfortable. Everything needs a process, what do you think?"

Jiang Shu nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, "You're right."

oh~~

Xu Shuxia couldn't help but look at Jiang Shu more, it turned out that Jiang Shu wasn't as bad as she imagined, at least she never gave up on this relationship.

"Has she been doing well in the past two years?" Jiang Shu finally asked the question he wanted to ask.

Xu Shuxia shook her head, "Generally speaking, she has been sleeping poorly, relying on drugs to help her sleep. When she didn't live here, she lived with us. At that time, she always woke up with nightmares at night."

Jiang Shu remembered that when she first met Ji Lianxing, she rarely suffered from insomnia, let alone taking medicine.

"Both of you, this... oh." Xu Shuxia thought it would be a pity if the two of them cared about each other, but still missed it, "Add a WeChat, you can send me the video, and I will find a time Show her the video?"

Jiang Shu heaved a sigh of relief and smiled gratefully, "Thank you!"

Xu Shuxia revealed the QR code, and Jiang Shu scanned it with a beep.

"Don't bully her in the future."

"will not!"

Xu Shuxia looked at the time on her phone, it was almost 07:30, and Ji Lianxing hadn't woken up yet?Looks like he must have been drinking last night.

"I have to go up and get her! We've got a busy day!"

Jiang Shu nodded, "Okay."

Xu Shuxia walked upstairs and saw the video sent by Jiang Shu. She clicked on it and watched the woman again. The woman in Shu's clothes looked very familiar.

who is it?I feel like I've seen it, but I'm not very impressed.

When did she see it? She stopped and stood in the corridor to recall carefully, searching her head for a long time. It should have been a long time ago, about two years ago?At that time, Ji Lianxing had just opened the B&B, oh, yes, on the opening day, this woman seemed to have come to look for Ji Lianxing.

It was also the day that Ji Lianxing drank too much wine for the second time, crying on Wei Ran's body.It's really hard to think about the connection, Xu Shuxia shuddered, it was undoubtedly a crazy criticism.

She put her phone in her pocket and hurried to the third floor to find Ji Lianxing.She must have been drinking before she woke up at this point. She remembered that Ji Lianxing would drink to help her sleep when she couldn't fall asleep. Although she told her many times that it was bad for her health, there was nothing she could do if she really wanted to drink.

If the door didn't open, there was a high probability that he had been drinking.

Xu Shuxia had the key, opened the door and entered the house, looked around, but there was no one in the living room.Going further inside, to the door of Ji Lianxing's bedroom, the door is half closed, and looking inside, Ji Lianxing is sleeping on the bed.

She walked to the bed and found that Ji Lianxing was fast asleep. She patted her face lightly, but found no response.

"Hey, why are you still sleeping?" Xu Shuxia patted again, "Have you forgotten what we are going to do today!"

Ji Lianxing's eyelashes trembled a few times, and when he opened his eyes, his eyes were a little blurred.Until Xu Shuxia's appearance gradually became clear before her eyes.

She sat up abruptly, patted her head, "Sorry! I overslept!" Her hair was a bit messy, she lifted the bedding and got out of bed, but just as she stepped off the bed, she kicked a small medicine bottle. Cover, the white pills inside are scattered all over the floor.

Xu Shuxia looked at it, and was a little worried, "Haven't you not eaten recently?"

Ji Lianxing squatted down, put all the medicine into a small bottle, screwed on the cap, and said, "I took one tablet last night."

"One piece?" Xu Shuxia looked at her suspiciously, "Are you sure it's one piece?"

She thought that Ji Lianxing had been drinking, but there was no trace of drinking, so it is rare to fall asleep like this, and she probably ate more than one tablet.

"Okay, three slices."

"Are you crazy!" Xu Shuxia snatched the small medicine bottle over, a little displeased, "Are you going to die if you eat like this?"

"I was wrong." Ji Lianxing admitted his mistake in a second. Xu Shuxia seldom talked to her like this. If he said that, he must be really angry. In this case, whoever is at fault will admit it. Ji Lianxing said again: " I couldn't sleep last night, and the pill didn't work, so I... well, my fault, I didn't take care of my body."

Xu Shuxia put the medicine bottle into her pocket and said seriously: "Xiao Ji, this thing must be quit."

"I know." Ji Lianxing went to open the curtains, the warm sun rose from the top of the mountain, the halo filled the whole world, and it was another new day.

Xu Shuxia, who was behind him, was still talking about the side effects of taking this medicine for a while, Ji Lianxing actually regretted taking three pills last night, it was harmful to the body, and he didn't sleep well.

"Shu Xia."

"Ok?"

"I had another nightmare last night."

It's been a long time since I dreamed of that person, but almost every nightmare has her.

Although they didn't meet many times, the shadow she brought was still powerful. Apart from Jiang Shu's incident, there was one more thing.

Two years ago, Ji Lianxing finally opened the first bar. On the opening day, Lan Yue came to the door. Even now Ji Lianxing can't figure out how she came here.

Of course he didn't want to see her that day, but Lan Yue talked a lot that day, and every sentence caught Ji Lianxing's attention.

She said that she was not here to sow discord, she had already separated from Jiang Shu, and said that Jiang Shu already had a new man, Ji Lianxing didn't want to hear her say that, but later Lan Yue took out a video, undoubtedly in Ji Lian's eyes. Xingxin was hammered heavily again.

It was both expected and unexpected for Jiang Shu.

It was expected that such a fickle person really had a new love, but it was unexpected that she was really so fickle.

At that time, Ji Lianxing felt that Lan Yue had a purpose to let her know that Jiang Shu already had a new love?Will she care?Although she didn't show that she cared the whole time, the fact is, she still cared.

Ji Lianxing remembered that Lan Yue also said that night, to Jiang Shu, she was just a speck of dust in the rich love history, and Lan Yue also said that an excellent person like Jiang Shu should be matched with an excellent people, not her 25 people who have to rely on sleep to pay in installments.

25 people who still need to sleep to pay in installments.

Ji Lianxing didn't want to admit it, but she was really stimulated by this sentence.

So she started a business desperately, in order to make money, but no matter how much money she made, she could not make up for the fact that she was Jiang Shu's canary. This was the biggest stain in Ji Lianxing's life.

Lan Yue only showed up that night, and she never came again after that. Ji Lianxing didn't want to be influenced by her and tried not to think about her, but she still had nightmares and couldn't control them at all.

Of course, all of this was before Jiang Shu appeared.

But yesterday Jiang Shu appeared, and the nightmare came to Ji Lianxing as expected, Ji Lianxing struggled in the dream all night, and finally let himself go, love is wrong or misunderstood, sometimes it is time to make it clear Yes, discuss matters first, then talk about love.

Jiang Shu wanted her to watch the video so much, so why not just watch and see what was going on.

Ji Lianxing stood in front of the window in a daze, thinking about things, his thoughts had already flown away.

Xu Shuxia stood behind her and didn't disturb her. Ji Lianxing's back was slender, with a pair of slender calves under the white nightdress. The morning light fell on her shoulders and hair tips, and there was a sense of loss in her beauty.

"Shu Xia." Ji Lianxing turned around, her face was pale and bloodless.

"Ok?"

"I want to talk to Jiang Shu, what do you think?"

Xu Shuxia's heart skipped a beat, "Why do you suddenly want to talk?"

"It's really hard to have nightmares, and since she wants to show me the video, I have the video for her too."
