Chapter 26 Count to ten before opening your eyes.



Jiang Wanyan thought she would not be affected, but when she saw the calculation in the other party's eyes, she couldn't help but turn around and run away.

Those people thought she knew nothing and even tried to cover up her mistakes in a perfunctory manner.

After Jiang Wanyan left, she walked aimlessly. She was tired of scheming, but scheming was everywhere and she couldn't escape it.

She walked into the park, where there was a lake with the evening glow shining on the lake.

When the wind blew, it broke into countless pieces, sparkling and dazzling the eyes.

Jiang Wanyan stared blankly at the lake. She was not a sentimental person, at least not in the past.

After she was sent to the He family by the Jiang family and got married, she was often bullied. She had no place to vent her emotions and could only consume herself internally.

After the divorce, Jiang Wanyan thought she could completely let go of the past.

But the past three years have been deeply engraved in my bones.

Jiang Wanyan sat on the bench and thought of the person who appeared when she had nowhere to go.

She lowered her eyes, held the phone, and looked at the contact list on the phone.

Jiang Wanyan muttered to herself, "I'll just call. If no one picks up within ten seconds, forget it."

After that, she made a phone call.

nineteen……

Five, four...

Jiang Wanyan's finger hovered above the hang-up button.

Two, one...

At the last second, the call was connected.

Jiang Wanyan looked at the connected phone, but didn't know what to say.

Will her willful behavior delay Xi Chenzhu from going to work?

Jiang Wanyan said, "I called the wrong number."

"Don't hang up," Xi Chenzhu stopped Jiang Wanyan from hanging up, "I have something to give you."

Jiang Wanyan looked around and asked in confusion, "You're not in the company?"

"I'm at the company."

Jiang Wanyan asked again: "So, you said you wanted to give me something, what was it?"

Xi Chenzhu chuckled softly, deliberately teasing her: "Guess."

Jiang Wanyan said with a smile: "How can I guess what you are going to give me?"

Even though she said that, Jiang Wanyan still played along and guessed, "Is it food?"

"no."

Jiang Wanyan thought about it and asked, "Is it big?"

“Big, not big either.”

This answer made Jiang Wanyan even more confused. How big was it?

What is big? Not big.

Is there anything else that can be made bigger or smaller at will?

Jiang Wanyan pondered for a moment, then admitted defeat and said, "The range is too large, I can't guess it, you tell me."

"Look up." Xi Chenzhu's voice was filled with laughter.

Jiang Wanyan looked up as he spoke.

At this time, the sky was almost completely dark, with only a last bit of rosy glow left on the horizon, lingering on the horizontal line.

Jiang Wanyan looked at the sky and saw nothing.

"Nothing."

Xi Chenzhu hummed and said, "Close your eyes and count to ten before opening them."

Jiang Wanyan closed her eyes and said, "Okay."

She counted silently in her heart, just like when she had just called Xi Chenzhu, full of anticipation.

After counting to ten, Jiang Wanyan opened her eyes.

Suddenly, a bright light appeared in the sky, with brilliant colors, like blooming fireworks.

Jiang Wanyan widened her eyes. Fireworks are not allowed in G City.

She looked closely and found that they were not real fireworks, but drones!

Countless drones flew in the night sky, flashing and changing into many kinds of fireworks.

Jiang Wanyan watched the drone fireworks quietly, her eyes slightly moist.

These were the most beautiful fireworks she had ever seen.

The performance ended and the drone quietly left.

On the other end of the phone, Xi Chenzhu's low voice came: "Do you like it?"

"I like it, I like it very much." Jiang Wanyan emphasized.

Xi Chenzhu asked again: "How are you feeling?"

Jiang Wanyan chuckled and said, "Much better."

"How do you know I'm in a bad mood?"

Xi Chenzhu joked, "Because I understand you."

Jiang Wanyan asked suspiciously, "Did you call me before because you wanted me to give you a gift?"

"Yes," Xi Chenzhu said slowly, "I'm very happy that you took the initiative to find me."

Jiang Wanyan: "I should be the one saying this, thank you."

"Um."

The two of them tacitly stopped talking and could hear each other's breathing over the phone.

Jiang Wanyan curled her fingers slightly and found a topic: "Can I fly a drone here?"

“Just apply.”

The two of them ran out of things to say, and Jiang Wanyan suddenly smiled: "Why don't you hang up the phone?"

Xi Chenzhu said, "You can hang up."

"You hang up, I was the one who hung up last time, this time it's your turn."

Jiang Wanyan was reluctant to hang up the phone, so she suggested that Xi Chenzhu hang up instead.

Xi Chenzhu was silent for a moment and said, "You should go back early."

"good."

Jiang Wanyan walked towards the park entrance. When she reached the gate, Xi Chenzhu finally said, "Then I'm hanging up."

"Okay, hang up."

Xi Chenzhu paused for a moment before hanging up the phone.

Jiang Wanyan took a deep breath and took a taxi home.

Jiang Wanyan decided to improve her abilities. When she is good enough, she will always meet a true mentor.

The days of practicing music always pass quickly. Jiang Wanyan came back to her senses from practicing the piano because the manager of the Western restaurant was looking for her.

Jiang Wanyan was surprised that the manager knew her phone number, and she was a little worried about what the manager was going to say.

The manager seemed to sense Jiang Wanyan's uneasiness and told her the reason for looking for her: "Miss Jiang, we have an important guest coming to our restaurant, but our pianist has asked for leave."

He asked awkwardly, "I can't find the right person right now. Could you please help me?"

Jiang Wanyan didn't really want to go, so she asked seriously, "Can't you really find anyone?"

The manager sighed and said, "It's really hard to find one. Famous musicians need to make appointments in advance..."
