Chapter 4 Tower (n) Snake Tongue
"Awesome!" Chen Jiayu looked at the bullet hole that pierced the bull's eye and couldn't help but admire Ke Yanlou who shot out these ten rings.
The man took off his black noise-cancelling headphones, clasped the gun body with his slender fingers, took out the magazine in no time, disassembled the pistol and put it away. The whole movement was smooth and fluid.
Ke Yanlou turned around, picked up a bottle of water, and smiled at Chen Jiayu: "You're too kind."
Chen Jiayu clapped her hands and said, "We have heard of Mr. Ke's name. We are very grateful to you for giving us such an opportunity to cooperate with your company on our project this time. My junior sister will send the specific requirements of the project to your email address tomorrow at the latest."
Ke Yanlou walked over to the sofa and sat down. He took a sip of water and behaved politely. In response to Chen Jiayu's words, Ke Yanlou only answered the second half of the sentence: "Your junior sister?"
Chen Jiayu said, "Yes, it's You Wu, your classmate."
Chen Jiayu gets angry when she mentions You Wu. Last Friday, You Wu went to the airport with her to pick up Ke Yanlou. When Chen Jiayu went to the toilet, You Wu ran away when she came back for something.
When she came back, Ke Yanlou was the only one there.
Ke Yanlou smiled and said to Chen Jiayu: "Your junior sister seemed to be uncomfortable after seeing me, so she went home to rest."
Chen Jiayu curled her lips and said, "Maybe she hasn't seen a handsome guy for a long time, so she was overwhelmed by his handsomeness."
What made Chen Jiayu even more speechless was that You Wu did not show up for the dinner with the client Ke Yanlou as usual, saying that there was an infestation of cockroaches in the house and if they were not killed, the house would become a nest of cockroaches.
So today, it was Chen Jiayu who came alone to accompany others in shooting.
Chen Jiayu smiled and said, "Mr. Ke's aim is very good. My junior sister is also quite good at shooting. You two can practice together next time."
Chen Jiayu's intention to please was obvious, but for some reason, she always felt a little scared when facing Ke Yanlou.
Chen Jiayu didn't know much about Ke Yanlou's background. She only knew that he was about the same age as her and You Wu, but his account balance had many more zeros than she knew. It was said that he was a rich second-generation and owned several companies in the Upper East Side.
Even though Ke Yanlou looks approachable and speaks gently and politely now, how could he be someone who is easy to mess with when he can manage so many companies?
Ke Yanlou put the water down, rolled up his sleeves, and looked at Chen Jiayu: "Forget it, I'm afraid your sister will feel uncomfortable if she sees me again."
Chen Jiayu felt strange. Aren't they classmates? Why would they feel uncomfortable?
She didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly tried to make excuses to coax Party A's father: "How could it be? My junior sister likes you very much! She told me a lot of interesting stories about you after she went home!"
"Really?" Ke Yanlou put the watch on the table back on his wrist, raised a smile, looked up at Chen Jiayu, his dark eyes reflected Chen Jiayu's slightly embarrassed expression: "Did she say how much she liked it?"
"Ah?" Chen Jiayu paused, and the entire shooting gallery fell into silence. After a moment, Chen Jiayu called You Wu and handed the phone to Ke Yanlou: "I like it so much that no one else can tell me. I'll let You Wu tell you in person."
......
"Ahhh!" You Wu sneezed, and the ball of paper in front of him was blown to the ground by the air.
Xu Qiongfang raised her hand and tapped You Wu's forehead: "You use the air conditioner every day, if you don't catch a cold, who will?"
You Wu brushed off his grandmother's hand, stuffed another piece of paper into his nose, and said in defense, "It's not the air conditioner. I caught a cold because I didn't wear enough when I went to the airport that day."
Xu Qiongfang didn't care. She picked up her flowery jacket and put it on You Wu's shoulders. She even turned off the air conditioner before leaving. "Wear more clothes! I'm going to cook."
You Wu dragged his voice and said, "It's 35 degrees today! You're going to heat me to death!"
Xu Qiongfang's voice floated in from outside the door: "How did you live without air conditioning?"
"I got through it with willpower." You Wu took off his headphones irritably and took a big gulp of water. The desk was covered with documents printed in French.
I haven't been busy with the project with Chen Jiayu these days. She has been looking for part-time tutoring jobs online, paying 100 yuan an hour. This money can't be compared with the money she makes from Ke Yanlou's project.
Or do you want to go back and continue doing it?
You Wu randomly brushed his hair.
The ringing sounded continuously, like a death warrant.
You Wu picked up Chen Jiayu's call, but the voice that came from the other end of the phone was not Chen Jiayu's voice, but a man's cold voice.
"Youwu."
Ke Yanlou and You Wu greeted each other on the phone.
You Wu waited for half a minute before responding: "Chen Jiayu was kidnapped?"
In the shooting range, Chen Jiayu listened to You Wu's voice on the hands-free phone and didn't even want to raise her face.
Ke Yanlou was not shy holding Chen Jiayu's phone and continued, "Your senior sister said that you like me very much as an old classmate. This makes me a little curious about how much you like me?"
You Wu knew without guessing that it was Chen Jiayu who was talking nonsense. Of course, there was also the possibility that Ke Yanlou was adding fuel to the fire.
You Wu said calmly, "As our partner, we always regard you as the supreme God and our adopted parent. If you can sign the contract as soon as possible, our love for you will increase even more, Mr. Ke."
After You Wu finished speaking, there was no response from the other side for a long time, and then there was a knock on the door.
You Wu hurriedly put on his slippers and walked quickly to the door. You Wu, who was already suffering from a heat cold, was still a little confused and didn't even realize that the phone call had not been hung up yet.
You Wu opened the door. The man standing in front of the door was taller than the door. He was wearing a burgundy suit which showed his flamboyant temperament to the fullest. His face was handsome enough to deserve the word "flamboyant". He had peach blossom eyes, a high nose bridge and a sentimental mole on the tip of his nose. He was holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand when he came to see you. You Wu's heart melted.
It's about to be vaporized.
"Surprise!" Ke Xing also took off his sunglasses and winked at You Wu, then stuffed the flowers into You Wu's arms: "Did you miss me?"
Ke Xing also consciously squeezed into the house. As soon as he entered the door, he opened the big box he brought with him and shouted towards Xu Qiongfang: "Grandma!"
You Wu kicked him and asked, "Who is your grandmother?"
When Xu Qiongfang heard Ke Xingye's voice, she came out with a spatula in her hand: "Oh, it's Xiaoye? Why are you here? Can grandma make you twice-cooked pork?"
People like Ke Xingye are the best at making women happy, from 18 to 80 years old, and even the most cruel girls would find it difficult to get angry at his face.
Except for the wandering fog.
"Okay, okay. I've been in the UK for a year and have lost weight. The food there is so bad. I'm sorry to bother you, mother-in-law." Ke Xing also whistled at Xu Qiongfang.
You Wu punched him and said, "Why are you blowing a hooligan whistle to my grandma?"
Ke Xing also raised his eyebrows: "What do you know? A woman is a girl until she dies? But someone like you..."
Ke Xingye's eyes wandered over You Wu: "She's a sexy lady."
You Wu was too lazy to say more to Ke Xing and pulled him to his room.
Ke Xing also leaned against the door, looking lazy, with his hands raised in surrender: "Why did you drag me into your room in broad daylight? Are you up to something bad?"
You Wu sometimes felt that Ke Yanlou and Ke Xing were really brothers.
You Wu looked at Ke Xingye coldly: "What do you want from me?"
Ke Xing also stopped laughing: "The previous incident."
You Wu knew what he was talking about.
You Wu: "If you want to find a woman, there are many out there."
Ke Xing also sighed and put his hands on You Wu's shoulders: "There are many girls, but there is only one You Wu."
You Wu: "Come on, how many guys did you date in high school? Why are you pretending to be pure now?"
Ke Xing also smiled: "Are you jealous?"
You Wu: "Why am I jealous of you?"
You Wu: "Get lost after eating."
Ke Xing also shrugged, turned around, opened the door and said to Xu Qiongfang in the kitchen: "Grandma, I just returned home, my family is still abroad, the house is too lonely, I don't want to go back."
Ke Xingye: "Can I sleep on the sofa at your house?"
Xu Qiongfang: "Sure!"
"Bang!" After Xu Qiongfang finished speaking, a loud noise was heard in the air. You Wu thought that Xu Qiongfang's spatula had fallen, but she later realized that the sound came from the phone.
......
"This watch is broken..." Chen Jiayu picked up the broken watch and handed it to Ke Yanlou.
She didn't know what was going on. Ke Yanlou was just listening to You Wu's voice with a smile on her face, but when she heard a man's voice on the other end of the line, the smile on her face faded a little. Finally, she didn't know what she heard, and she was distracted...
Ke Yanlou's million-dollar watch was broken into pieces on the ground, and the banknotes turned into waste paper.
Ke Yanlou threw the watch into the trash can as if he had thrown away a piece of paper, turned around and gave the phone to Chen Jiayu: "Sorry for wasting your time. I have something to do today and I'll leave first. We can continue to talk about cooperation another day."
Chen Jiayu: "Okay, okay, can you please tell me what it is?"
In fact, Chen Jiayu shouldn't have said so much, but she was very afraid that the project would fail, so she would fight for it as long as there was still hope.
Ke Yanlou stopped and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you remember the boy on the phone just now?"
Chen Jiayu: “Remember.”
Ke Yanlou smiled: "That's my brother. I'm going to take my good brother home."
......
You Wu went out to throw away the garbage when her hair was half dry. She did not go home immediately, but wandered aimlessly on the street in a pair of slippers.
In the past few days, familiar people and familiar past events came to her at the same time, making her thoughts a little confused. What's more hateful is that Ke Xingye was so shameless that he slept in her house.
You Wu had no way to chase the person away. After You Wu and Ke Xingye reached a cooperation, Ke Xingye often went to You Wu's house to urge You Wu to catch up with the person. Every time he came, he brought a lot of things. Ke Xingye also made You Wu's grandmother Xu Qiongfang happy.
The doctor said that the elderly should smile more. Xu Qiongfang liked Ke Xingye very much, so You Wu didn't say anything more.
But now she really didn't want to see any face with the surname Ke.
You Wu stood in the dim corridor and took out a cigarette, but after all these years, she still couldn't smoke, and the smoke she just exhaled was dispersed by her cough.
A figure appeared in the mist.
Ke Yanlou stood under the voice-controlled lamp covered with spider webs. As You Wu coughed, the light flickered. Under the dim light, a face was clearly discernible.
Clean, cold, and yet with a gentle aggressiveness, it is a face that can play with people in bed until they are gently killed.
Ke Yanlou just stood there without saying a word, quietly looking at You Wu.
His eyes were calm, yet as cold and dangerous as a snake's tongue.
You Wu felt a sense of being entangled and suffocated.
"Ahem!" You Wu was choked to tears. She said to Ke Yanlou in panic, "Water!"
Ke Yanlou walked slowly to You Wu and skillfully took the cigarette that You Wu was holding on his fingertips. For someone with beautiful fingers, any stick he holds will look like a work of art.
The man did not pass the water to You Wu, but instead raised his head and drank a sip of water himself. Then he pinched You Wu's chin with his right hand, forcing him to raise his head. Ke Yanlou lowered his head and covered You Wu's lips.
You Wu made two "mmm" sounds, and it was unclear what he was cursing.
However, Ke Yanlou rubbed You Wu's lips seriously to make her open her defenses. The warm water, tinged with the faint fragrance on her body, flowed into You Wu's mouth. Crystal clear water droplets flowed down from the corners of You Wu's mouth and slid onto Ke Yanlou's fingertips.
Ke Yanlou gently stroked You Wu's face with the water stains.
The lights in the corridor were dim, and from other angles it looked like the two were kissing.
But in fact, Ke Yanlou just fed You Wu some water as per his official duties and then stopped.
You Wu stopped coughing. She took a moment to calm down before looking up at Ke Yanlou: "I said I wanted water, and this is the water you gave me?"
Ke Yanlou lowered his brows, pulled the corners of his lips, and said with sudden realization: "Is that so..."
Ke Yanlou raised his hand to wipe away the water stains on You Wu's lips. He remembered that there was water on You Wu's mouth once before, but that water was not transparent.
Ke Yanlou said slowly: "You were staring at me just now, I thought the water you wanted was in my mouth."
