Chapter 23
It was already past noon. Ever since Ji Linchuan moved in next door, Jiang Xiu would go across the street before noon every weekend.
He would first inspect the kitchen and ask Ji Linchuan if he needed help. Usually Ji Linchuan asked him to go out and wait, so that he could lie on the big sofa in Ji Linchuan's house and play with his phone.
Although I can't help much, at least I want to help.
But today was different. Jiang Xiu had already put on a loose dark T-shirt, but he was hesitant when he was about to go out.
The touch somewhere on his body was so clear that Jiang Xiu opened the door and then closed it.
I ran to the mirror, leaned in close, and stared hard at a certain spot on the black T-shirt. My eyes were almost blurry, and I finally confirmed once again that it was completely invisible from the outside.
Jiang Xiu swayed back and forth and looked at the mirror again. He glanced at the time and realized that he couldn't delay any longer. Ten minutes had passed since Ji Linchuan called him to come over for dinner.
Take a deep breath and open the door with dignity.
After entering Ji Linchuan's house, Jiang Xiu poked his head towards the dining room. Ji Linchuan was already sitting on a chair in the dining room, seemingly waiting for him. The dishes on the table were untouched, and the rice in the bowl was neatly cooked.
"Didn't I tell you to eat first?" Jiang Xiu leaned forward somewhat embarrassedly and sat on the seat he usually sat on.
After sitting down, I unconsciously bent my waist to move the loose T-shirt fabric away from my chest skin, which felt a little better.
Ji Linchuan put down his phone: "You can come later."
Jiang Xiu could of course hear Ji Linchuan was playing tricks on him, so he said what he had prepared before: "I took on an order before and there is still some finishing work left, so I thought I would come over after I finish the painting."
He knew Ji Linchuan would say something about him, but it didn't matter, he would turn the tables and say, "I told you, who asked you to wait for me!"
His voice rose several degrees, but he didn't dare to move his body, like a bluffing kitten.
"Eat quickly. Thanks to the weather today, it didn't get cold even half an hour later." While Ji Linchuan urged him to eat, he did not forget to say something funny.
Jiang Xiu: “…”
Well, since he was really being unreasonable, let’s just eat quietly.
However, this interruption, coupled with the fact that Jiang Xiu had not eaten breakfast, quickly made him immersed in the joy of lunch, and even forgot about the extra things on his body.
As long as you don't focus all your consciousness on one thing, that strange and shameful feeling will quickly dissipate.
Jiang Xiu: "Oh, by the way, I'm not coming over for dinner this afternoon."
He didn't want to come at noon, but when he thought about the last time he wanted to stay in bed, he didn't want to come at noon. Ji Linchuan kept knocking on the door patiently, adding the threats and inducements of the news.
He had no choice but to get up and eat.
Saying that he has a bad stomach is all for his own good.
Haha, he thinks Ji Linchuan is addicted to controlling him, and he hasn't recovered from his high school days yet.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiu poked the bowl loudly: "I have something to do this afternoon, you are not allowed to keep knocking on the door outside."
"Got it, stop torturing me." Ji Linchuan glanced at Jiang Xiu, "So where are you planning to go during this short holiday?"
After getting Ji Linchuan's assurance, Jiang Xiu felt relieved. He thought for a moment and said, "I don't plan to go anywhere. I'll probably just stay here."
"It's seven days. Do you want to go to Shenzhen with me?" Ji Linchuan invited him.
Jiang Xiu then remembered that the other party seemed to be representing the school in a debate competition during the long holiday.
"You go play in the game, what should I do? Be your cheerleader?" Jiang Xiu shook her head. "Schoolboy Ji won't be short of cheerleaders."
After rejecting Ji Linchuan, he stood up and prepared to go to the kitchen to get another bowl of rice. As soon as he stood up, his whole body stretched out. Suddenly, he felt something sliding down from his chest and sliding out along the loose clothes.
It fell to the floor with a "thump" and bounced a few times.
Jiang Xiu immediately stopped moving, his eyes searching the floor, and soon saw what fell out.
A small silver bead.
Ahhhhhh Jiang Xiu's heart exploded with a sharp cry. The chest chain!!! It fell off his chest chain!
How could it suddenly fall down? What kind of quality is this?
He subconsciously looked at Ji Linchuan and found that Ji Linchuan was also staring at the floor, obviously attracted by the movement just now.
"What is it?" Ji Linchuan asked.
Jiang Xiu's heart leaped, his voice a little weak: "Yes... yes, what is it?"
"It fell from you." Ji Linchuan looked up at Jiang Xiu, his eyes narrowed, "Why don't you pick it up and see what it is?"
Of course he wanted to pick it up! But just as he subconsciously bent over to pick it up, he suddenly realized a problem.
Will the person on the other side be able to see the bra chain from his collar?
Even if I find a piece of clothing with a small and loose neckline before going out, with such a large movement, it will definitely be seen, right?
Now, just looking at this bead, it is impossible to guess what it is, but if you see the silver chain on his chest, even if it flashes by, you might guess it.
Absolutely no bending over!
"If it's lost, then it's lost. We don't want it anymore." Jiang Xiu pretended to be calm and said, "It doesn't look like something important."
"Are you sure?" Ji Linchuan bent down and picked up the silver bead.
Jiang Xiu's eyes followed Ji Linchuan's movements and suddenly stopped. When he wanted to see clearly, Ji Linchuan had already straightened up.
Just now, he seemed to see a flash of black in Ji Linchuan's lowered collar.
But it happened too quickly, the black color was not completely revealed, and Jiang Xiu's heart skipped a beat for no reason.
The shiny, round beads still retained the body temperature of the previous owner. When Ji Linchuan took it in his hand, it felt warm, not at all like the cold feeling he had felt when he first picked it out and took it in his hand.
Not only was it stained with Xiuxiu's body temperature, but it also seemed to be lingering with Xiuxiu's fragrance.
Ji Linchuan pinched the bead, put it to his nose and sniffed it gently.
"You...why are you smelling it!!" Jiang Xiu's face turned red and his voice began to stutter.
"It smells good. I guess it's a scented bead." Ji Linchuan pinched the bead between his thumb and index finger and rubbed it slowly with his fingertips.
In fact, it was a very normal action, but when Jiang Xiu thought about what the other party was rubbing, he couldn't help but feel his whole body getting hot. But when the heat surged, he didn't forget the weird illusion just now.
"What's in your clothes?" Jiang Xiu asked directly.
I hope he was seeing things. If it really was a bra chain, how could it be such a coincidence?
But Ji Linchuan doesn't look like the kind of person who would carry such a thing.
Ji Linchuan: "I'm wearing a low-cut black vest, but the design is a bit unique, with black stripes on the top. Do you want to see it?"
Nowadays, vests are designed in various styles. Jiang Xiu himself is a fashion designer, so he certainly knows how outrageous some designs are.
Since Ji Linchuan allowed him to look openly, it shouldn't be a bra chain. Unexpectedly, it was a vest with a strange design. He really wasn't interested in the strange design of this thing.
"No thanks." Jiang Xiu refused decisively, "Why would you buy this kind of vest?"
"My boyfriend wants to see it, and he also wants me to wear different clothes." Ji Linchuan supported his head with one hand, stroking the beads with the other hand, with a smile on his lips, looking at Jiang Xiu steadily.
This time it was Jiang Xiu's turn to be stunned. Yes, Ji Linchuan was also in an online relationship.
Since he and Deep Shark can take pictures of each other, he didn't expect that Ji Linchuan's online love would be like this.
"Here you go." Ji Linchuan stretched out his hand and handed the bead over. "Have you figured out where it came from?"
Jiang Xiu took it with his palm, pretending to look at the bead for a few seconds before suddenly realizing something: "It looks like the bead on my waistband."
After putting the beads back into his pocket, Jiang Xiu didn't dare to get more rice. He wanted to find an excuse to leave quickly. Unexpectedly, Ji Linchuan stood up and took his bowl away.
"I'll just serve you a bowl." Ji Linchuan's voice came from above his head.
"Okay." Jiang Xiu couldn't help but straighten his spine quietly. After feeling the people around him leave, he relaxed again.
However, that strange illusion has not disappeared. The thought that just flashed through his mind is still unbelievable even for Jiang Xiu now.
But once the thought arises, no matter how ridiculous it seems, I cannot let it go.
Deep Shark and Ji Linchuan, two people who are obviously not related at all, are now put together by Jiang Xiu and compared repeatedly in his mind.
Yu Guangzhong saw Ji Linchuan's mobile phone on the dining table. He subconsciously picked up the phone, opened the chat box, and sent a message to Shensha.
Xiuxiu: [Cat is sad.jpg]
Xiuxiu: [Cat crying.jpg]
Xiuxiu: [Cat punches.jpg]
Three messages were sent, but the phone screen on the table didn't light up. Soon, Deep Shark's message came back.
SS: [Baby, what's wrong?]
Jiang Xiu breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously.
Xiuxiu: [Now I want to check! ]
Xiuxiu: [Send me a photo.]
Originally he wanted to blame Deep Shark, but then he thought, since things had come to this point, there was no point in blaming him, so he might as well seek some benefits for himself.
SS: [Picture]
SS: [So the baby misses me.]
Who misses him!
Jiang Xiu didn't dare to click on the picture. Only when he saw that the other party had indeed sent him a picture with a breast chain did he feel completely relieved.
Xiuxiu: [I'm doing a surprise inspection! I'm checking to see if you've followed the agreement.]
SS: [Are you satisfied? Baby.]
Jiang Xiu was about to type when he saw Ji Linchuan appear out of the corner of his eye. He hurriedly turned off the screen and placed his phone on the table.
"Thank you." Jiang Xiu took the rice and thanked him guiltily.
Ji Linchuan glanced at Jiang Xiu from head to toe: "Why are you suddenly so polite? What bad things have you done?"
"Ah? Am I always so polite, okay?!" Jiang Xiu said unconvinced.
All I heard was Ji Linchuan's cold laugh.
Well, he was usually a little rude, but so what? Ji Linchuan was not usually polite either.
Ji Linchuan finished eating faster than him. After finishing his meal, he picked up the mobile phone on the dining table and started typing.
"Buzz buzz buzz" the cell phone next to Jiang Xiu vibrated a few times and the screen lit up.
Jiang Xiu knew who sent the message to him, so he planned to ignore it and reply when he got home, but his phone just didn't do what he wanted and kept buzzing.
"Your cell phone is ringing." Ji Linchuan suddenly spoke up to remind Jiang Xiu.
"Oh, he shouldn't be an important person." Although he said that, Jiang Xiu still picked up the phone.
SS: [Baby, why don’t you answer me? ]
SS: [Are you dissatisfied?]
SS: [Pictures, pictures, pictures...]
Nearly ten pictures were sent in a row. Jiang Xiu was shocked and blushed. When he was about to reply in a hurry, a new message came.
SS: [Baby, look at yours.]
