Chapter 13 Chapter 13 They are all dogs, there is no difference...
Jiang Wu, who realized that he had stood up the other party, now wanted to hold his head and run around screaming, how could a person poke such a big hole!
Jiang Wu really wanted to vent his anger on Juan'er for not waking her up, but in the final analysis, she was sleeping too soundly. What he should do now is not to shirk responsibility, but to find a way to save her life.
It doesn’t matter. There are only two people here now. Fortunately, Jiang Wu can only take the opportunity to comfort himself by finding joy in the midst of suffering. At least the situation is not the worst.
Just as she was about to leave, the concierge handed her another letter and said, "Young Master Song has already left. He said the private room is at Chun Zhi Ya on the third floor. Madam, please go in directly when you arrive."
Song Jin also told her verbally, so this letter was obviously given to her by someone else.
After Jiang Wu unfolded the letter, she didn't understand what was said in the letter. She only knew that he said he had arrived and his private room was at the Spring Gathering on the third floor.
Juan'er, whose wrist was suddenly grabbed, was full of confusion. "Madam, what's wrong?"
"You said it's too late for me to pretend to be sick now." Jiang Wu, whose body was about to slide under the carriage, showed a face that looked like he wanted to cry but had no tears.
It would be fine if the three of them were on time, but why did they have to be early? They really have too much time to waste, don’t they?
"Madam, are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to call a doctor right now?" Juan'er reached out to touch Madam's forehead worriedly, and found that it was not hot, but rather a little cold, and she was sweating coldly.
"It's okay, I'm in good health." These few short words were almost squeezed out from between Jiang Wu's teeth.
Since you will get hurt if you stick your head out and you will get hurt if you keep your head down, you can only pick the weak ones first.
Ji Xiao, who had been waiting impatiently like an egg thrown into a fire and about to explode, heard a noise coming from outside the door. He thought it was the waiter asking if he wanted more tea, so he impatiently grabbed the teacup and threw it at him, "Get out!"
As Jiang Wu pushed the door open, a teacup exploded at his feet. His scalp felt a stinging pain, and he was so frightened that he almost pulled back the half-step he had taken. He swallowed hard, timidly poked his head in, and said, "Then I'll leave?"
After hearing the culprit's voice, Ji Xiao, whose face had been filled with anger, immediately turned around and stared at her with red eyes. He strode towards the door, clamped her wrist and pulled her into the box. Every word he spoke was as if he wanted to chew her into his mouth and break her bones. "Jiang Wu, you still dare to come? I thought you had forgotten."
"Do you know how long I have been waiting for you since this morning?" No one has ever dared to stand him up and made him wait for so long. She, Jiang Wu, is truly the first person in the world!
Good, she is really good!
Jiang Wu's eyes widened as his wrist was pinched and hurt. He felt that he was being unreasonable. "What do you mean by 'morning'? Didn't I arrange the time for noon? I'm telling you, you can't accuse me of this."
If he had really been waiting since morning until now, if it were Jiang Wu, she would also be very angry.
Ji Xiao stared at her with a forced smile, "Oh, so you mean I'm lying."
Jiang Wu really wanted to say yes in a firm tone, but was afraid that he would strangle her the next second. After all, in the dream, he really would do what he said.
"I clearly remember that I sent someone to tell you, because I couldn't bear to let you get up so early. I don't know why you didn't receive it." Jiang Wu, whose voice became weaker under his cold gaze, suddenly had an idea and threw herself into his arms, secretly pinching her thigh until tears fell from her eyes due to the pain.
"Actually, there's another reason why I came so late. I was preparing a gift for you."
Ji Xiao's cheeks instantly turned red to the back of his ears when a warm and soft body suddenly fell into his arms. He didn't know what to do with his other hand, so he pushed her away and finally just clenched his fist and put it behind his back.
Even if she likes me, how can she shamelessly throw herself into his arms? It's too unrestrained. How could Lord Xie fall for such a woman?
Jiang Wu raised her head, tears falling as her eyelashes fluttered, and her nose turned red as if she had applied rouge. "It's also my fault that I forgot the time we agreed on while preparing a gift for you. It's natural that you're angry with me."
"If I had an appointment with someone and that person was as late as I was, I would definitely be angrier than you and think that the other person didn't care about me."
Every time he saw her crying, Ji Xiao would get irritated. He really didn't know why she had so many tears. He let go of her wrist and used his fingertips to wipe her tears carelessly, saying in a gruff voice, "Alright, wipe your tears first. If they get all over my clothes, it'll be so messy."
Jiang Wu, whose tears had stopped, pressed on, "Are you still angry?"
Ji Xiao was practically pissed off at her. She was truly adept at climbing up the pole. Glancing at her misty eyes, he worried she might cry again. He irritably grabbed a handful of hair and compromised, "Okay, okay, okay. I'm not angry anymore. You said you had a gift for me. Where's it?"
He would compromise, mainly because he hated seeing women crying and he really didn't know what there was to cry about.
Gift?
Jiang Wu, who was secretly delighted, had a momentary brain freeze. Could she say that she had completely forgotten such an important thing?
Ji Xiao half-closed his eyes and pinched her cheek with a sinister look, "Could it be that you were lying about the gift you mentioned?"
Of course Jiang Wu denied it, standing on tiptoe to hold his face, blinking in grievance, "How is it possible? Don't you know that after learning that it was your birthday yesterday, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep all night, thinking about what gift to get you? How could you wrongly accuse me?"
Ji Xiao lowered his head and was caught off guard by a face that suddenly enlarged. The face had red lips, almond eyes, and rosy cheeks. His heart beat uncontrollably faster.
I guess he was angry because he had been waiting for her for too long.
Ji Xiao's ears were red as if sunburned, his Adam's apple bulging. He put his fist to his lips and coughed softly, "Alright, since you're late because you prepared a gift for me, I can forgive you for coming so late."
Ji Xiao extended his hand to her, suppressing the upward curve of his lips, "Okay, now take out the gift."
He said how could this woman stand him up, it turned out that she was preparing a gift for him, so it was not impossible to forgive her this time.
The box was extremely quiet at this moment, so quiet that Jiang Wu could hear the hawkers' cries downstairs and her heartbeat that was about to jump out of her chest due to her guilty conscience.
Jiang Wu, with cold sweat on her palms, was very sure that if she couldn't come up with a gift, he would strangle herself to death.
Jiang Wu, whose forehead was almost sweating with anxiety, suddenly came up with an idea under his creepy gaze. "The gift is too expensive. I was worried that you would leave angrily by the time I arrived, just like last time because I was late. So I didn't bring it with me."
Ji Xiao, whose outstretched hand froze in mid-air, suddenly sneered, his eyes drooping with a chilling coldness, "Did you not bring it, or are you not prepared at all?"
"Of course I prepared it. It's you who doubted my feelings for you last time, and now you suspect that I didn't prepare a gift for you. If you don't even have that much trust in me, we should not have any contact in the future. Anyway, you won't believe me no matter what I say." Jiang Wu knew that in order to gain the upper hand in an argument, she had to speak louder than the other party and not feel guilty. Only in this way could she stand on the moral high ground.
"In that case, let's just pretend we've never met. It's better for everyone." Jiang Wu, her cheeks flushed with anger, pushed the man in front of her away and walked out. Anyone who saw this would feel heartbroken because their loved one didn't trust them.
"I don't mean to disbelieve you." Seeing that she was really going to leave and really wanted to break up with him, Ji Xiao hurriedly grabbed her wrist. He didn't expect that he should have been the angry one, but now he became the one who coaxed her.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault. If you're angry, you can hit me or scold me. As long as it can make you calm down, you can ask me to do anything, okay?" If it weren't for Tingxue, let alone asking him to be humble, the fact that he didn't look at her with the side of his eyes when talking to her showed his kindness.
When he bowed his head and admitted his mistake, Jiang Wu immediately pressed on, "Then do you know where you went wrong?"
Hearing this, Ji Xiao, with veins bulging on his forehead, finally lost his patience and said, "Jiang Wu, don't go too far!"
As soon as he got angry, Jiang Wu immediately pouted, her body shaking with grievance and sadness. "I was just joking, but now you're getting angry at me. How can I trust you like this?"
Then she wiped away a tear and said, "Okay, I'll leave then. You don't believe me anyway."
"Okay, if you dare to leave, don't come to me again in the future!" Ji Xiao, who didn't expect things to return to the starting point, was so angry that the corners of his eyes turned red, and his fists were clenched and crackling like an enraged jackal.
This also made Jiang Wu realize that she almost got out of her control. She thought of the puppy she had at home. Whenever the puppy was angry and ignored people, as long as she gave it a bone and touched its head, it would immediately wag its tail with joy.
Although he is not a dog, she has no bones in her hands...
Jiang Wu, who was mistaken for a dog by everyone around him, stood on tiptoe and touched his head, using a coaxing tone, "Alright, I was just joking. Close your eyes first, I'll go get you a gift."
Ji Xiao, who didn't like others touching his head, glared at her and said, "What gift? I'll go with you."
Jiang Wu gave him a glare, "No, if you come along, it won't be a surprise."
When he was about to reach the door, he turned back and said, "You are not allowed to follow me secretly, otherwise I will be angry."
Ji Xiao always felt that something was wrong, and was worried that he would say something wrong to anger her, thus making his bet, which was originally a sure thing, lose miserably. He could only say helplessly: "Okay, then I'll wait for your surprise."
"But you have to come back soon, okay?"
"I see." Jiang Wu said he was going to get the gift, but in fact he had forgotten to prepare it. Forget it, he could just pick up a piece of dogtail grass and give it to him later. Now he had to deal with the other two first.
Although the other two would not strangle people like Ji Xiao, they would stab people with daggers while smiling.
After Jiang Wu left the box where Ji Xiao was, he was about to go find the box where Song Jin was, but when he looked up, he found that his box was right in front.
It shouldn’t be such a coincidence.
Jiang Wu, who thought she had scared herself, patted her chest, thinking that there shouldn't be such a coincidence in the world. But when she looked up again, she confirmed it.
There really are such coincidences in the world!
