0140 Suicide
Now, only the exhaustion after sex can put her to sleep.
The large room was completely silent. Jiang Jifan thought he was asleep and was about to give up when the man next to her suddenly sat up and turned on the bedside lamp.
Her face was clean and beautiful under the light, but Tantai Qing keenly sensed an inexplicable strangeness in her emotions.
But he wisely didn't pursue the matter further and bent down to take a condom from the bedside table.
The man's face, under the dim light, still looked somewhat weary. After he tore open the outer packaging, Jiang Jifan got up and took the film from his hand.
She always learns things very quickly. After his hands-on "tutoring" last time, she has become much more proficient at this. Occasionally, Tantai Qing will also give her the opportunity to "practice".
The dragon, which had been dormant, gradually awoke under her touch and manipulation.
After she put it on, Tantai Qing took a tissue and wiped her hands, which were slightly stained with lubricant.
In the past, Jiang Jifan would have obediently waited for him to wipe his hands clean before proceeding with the next step, but tonight she seemed a little anxious and hugged him before he finished wiping them.
When Tantai Qing fell down, he braced himself with his elbow to avoid crushing her.
He tossed the tissue from his palm and slipped his fingers through his thin underwear into that secluded valley.
It's not wet yet.
Tantai Qing kissed her cheek and rubbed the flower bud with his fingertips.
Jiang Jifan casually picked at the hair on the back of his head with his index finger, his expression serious, unlike his usual tenderness.
She stopped him halfway through the foreplay, and kissed his lips to let him in.
Midway through, Tantai Qing noticed that she was often out of sorts, frequently lost in thought, as if she were trying to complete some task, and even unresponsive to his kisses.
"Jifan, what happened to you today?" He stopped what he was doing and looked down at her to ask.
Jiang Jifan snapped out of her daze and turned to look at him directly.
"Don't talk..." She raised her hand and hooked her arm around his neck, sealing his mouth with her lips, not giving him a chance to ask any more questions.
Afterwards, Tantai Qing stared thoughtfully at Jiang Jifan, who was fast asleep beside him.
Afraid of waking her from her hard-won sleep, he didn't dare to carry her to the bathroom to take a shower. Instead, he got up and wrung out a hot towel to help her clean the mud between her legs.
After everything was done, Tantai Qing lay down beside her, listening to her soft, rhythmic breathing, but he couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
A few days later, Jiang Jifan learned from Yao Man that Tan Gaolang had accidentally killed his wife and several-month-old child while in a daze. It is said that after he regained consciousness and found that he had personally killed his wife and child, he was devastated and jumped off the eighth floor that night, ending his own life.
"Oh, it's such a tragedy. How could such a good family turn out like this?" Yao Man sighed on the phone.
"By the way, Ji Fan, did he tell you what Ji Ping owes him? If it's just money, we'll pay back whatever we can..."
I can't pay it back, I simply can't...
Jiang Jifan lowered his hands and leaned against the wall, his back drenched in cold sweat and his legs feeling weak.
"Ji Fan? Ji Fan, are you listening?" Yao Man's urgent voice came from the phone clutched in her hand.
"Strange, did the connection suddenly drop...?"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Jifan walked out of the bathroom with a pale face, his legs feeling as heavy as lead.
Tang Yujin, who came in to use the restroom, saw her absent-minded appearance and called out worriedly, "Sister Jiang?"
But she seemed not to have heard anything and brushed past him.
Tang Yujin glanced back at her departing figure, feeling deeply puzzled.
"Jiang Jiping, I'm giving you one last chance. Come find me yourself." After making several unsuccessful phone calls, Jiang Jifan pulled Jiang Jiping out of his blacklist, edited a message, and sent it out.
Jiang Jifan waited listlessly for a whole day, and when he woke up the next day, he found that the messages he had sent had disappeared without a trace, which made him even more anxious.
She comforted herself by saying she would wait a little longer, and so she waited in the office until the afternoon.
"Sister Ji Fan, aren't you leaving after get off work?" Seeing that everyone in the department had left but she was still in the office, Xu Zhengyan pushed open the door and called out to her.
Jiang Jifan snapped out of his daze, nodded, and said, "I understand."
Remembering what Tang Yujin had told him yesterday, Xu Zhengyan was a little worried and took the initiative to step forward and ask, "Sister Jifan, are you... feeling unwell? You don't look too well these past two days."
She shook her head and said calmly, "I'm fine. You guys go ahead. I'll turn off the lights."
After he left, Jiang Jifan opened the dial pad, hesitated for a long time, closed his eyes, and dialed the short number in one go.
She could no longer hide it with a clear conscience.
"Hello, 110, please speak."
