Chapter Eight: An Encounter with a Curly-Haired Boy
"Young Master, please feel free to give me any instructions in the future."
With a loud bang in the sky, the old servant made a dazzling appearance. From this day forward, Jiang You will be Xia Yan's most loyal servant.
Seeing her fawning expression, Xia Yan raised an eyebrow. Calling someone with political connections "young master" or something like that? It was blatant flattery, but she'd pissed herself off. It was kind of adorably silly.
Those who engage in politics would never bring feudal dregs into the open.
After all, everyone is equal under socialism. No matter how powerful or influential someone is, at least they can maintain appearances. Otherwise, if the Discipline Inspection Commission submits a report, they'll have to behave themselves.
But Jiang You was different. She called him Young Master, which was just a little romantic gesture between lovers. Xia Yan absolutely adored Jiang You's way of trying to please her.
She's just too naive and simple-minded, she doesn't understand anything, but that's okay, we can teach her slowly later.
Without correcting Jiang You's way of addressing her, Xia Yan itched to stroke her head a couple of times and said with a satisfied smile, "Come on, the food outside is getting cold."
Jiang You stood there in shock. What had he just done?
Didn't he realize that touching the head of someone his own age was a particularly ambiguous gesture?
"What's wrong?" When she realized that Xia Yan hadn't followed, she turned around, her expression calm and composed, with a half-smile on her lips, revealing nothing unusual.
"Oh, here I come," Jiang You said, his face flushed as he followed after them, snapping out of his daze.
Weren't we already aware that the boy lacked a sense of propriety?
Luckily, I washed my hair yesterday, otherwise it would have been embarrassing if his hands were covered in oil.
Jiang You stepped out of the house, and the brilliant sunlight streamed through the huge panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, pouring into the spacious living room and filling almost every corner.
On the long dining table, four exquisite takeout boxes were neatly arranged, each with the eye-catching words "Cuizhuyuan" printed on it.
At this moment, Xia Yan opened the takeout box with an elegant and casual demeanor, and said softly, "Amy, close the curtains in the living room."
As soon as the boy finished speaking, Jiang You heard a pleasant mechanical voice respond: "Amy is here. Amy has already closed the curtains for you."
The open curtains began to slowly and automatically move towards the center.
As the curtains closed, the sunlight in the living room was gradually blocked, and the entire space instantly became cool and gloomy.
Why aren't you coming over?
Xia Yan had already opened all the packaging. His slender, fair hands rested on the table. After speaking, his eyes, as bright as the most dazzling stars in the night sky, gazed at the girl in front of him with a smile.
Jiang You's heart began to race; this person was just too unfairly handsome.
She warned herself not to be blinded by lust, and not to mistakenly believe that the handsome young man liked her just because he was nice to her, smiled at her brightly, or even made inappropriate physical contact with her.
Such meticulousness and gentleness are easily misunderstood by anyone!
"Young Master, are you... so kind to everyone?" She asked cautiously after sitting down.
Xia Yan sat down next to her very casually, so close that their arms would inevitably rub against each other whenever she reached for food.
"What do you mean?" He tilted his head, lowered his long, thick eyelashes, and quietly stared at the girl's slender, delicate neck, a slight smile playing on his lips as he asked.
"Uh, it's just that you seem particularly concerned about whether people have eaten, like today's lunch."
Jiang You lowered his head, took a bite of rice, and after holding it in for a long time, still didn't have the courage to ask: "Do you smile so brightly at everyone? Do you have no sense of propriety towards anyone?"
"I don't know, since everyone goes to eat lunch obediently at noon, except..."
Xia Yan paused for a moment, then scanned the girl inch by inch with his gaze. He lingered on the word "someone" on his tongue, savoring it carefully before uttering it with a smile: "Someone."
Jiang You couldn't help but shovel a few more mouthfuls of rice into his mouth. Why did he say that?
It was as if he was flirting with her.
She pursed her lips, then fell silent as if she had guessed something. Xia Yan didn't speak either, but as he picked up food, his smooth, delicate arm would occasionally brush against her left arm.
once......
twice......
three times......
Jiang You's breathing became increasingly disordered.
She didn't dislike this physical contact; in fact, she enjoyed the indescribable pleasure brought about by the subtle friction of the handsome young man's skin against hers.
It was amazing and exciting, incredibly fun.
Anyway, it was his lack of discretion that led Jiang You to eat with a blush on his face, enjoying the meal silently without any burden.
Buzz buzz... Xia Yan's phone, which was placed on the long table, vibrated, its screen flickering with a faint light.
The boy's two beautiful eyebrows, as fine as ink paintings, were slightly furrowed, as if they had been gently touched.
Clearly, he was very annoyed that the sudden phone call had interrupted his precious time alone with the girl beside him.
Seeing the contact, her expression softened slightly, and she pressed the answer button.
"What's wrong, Brother Li? Song Yun has gone missing again? His last known location was at the Cross Anime City? Okay, that's very close to here. I'll have someone look for him."
Xia Yan hung up the phone and saw the girl looking at him. He immediately felt incredibly soft-hearted and subconsciously said, "My dad's friend's son has mild autism. He likes to immerse himself in his own world and often gets lost."
"Oh," Jiang You scratched his face. Did Xia Yan tell her all this because he wanted her help in the search?
"Do you need my help to find it?"
Are you crazy? To let his woman, with her delicate skin, go out and find other men under the scorching sun?
Damn it, where does Song Yun get such influence? Even his father couldn't change that.
Xia Yan: "No need. Song Yun is 1.8 meters tall. Apart from being prone to getting lost in his own world, his IQ is normal. Leaving him for a few hours won't cause any problems."
Seeing that she wasn't needed, Jiang You silently continued eating.
The food at Cuizhu Garden is delicious, especially the braised pork with pigeon eggs. It has layers of fat and lean meat, making it rich but not greasy, just right.
Yesterday's braised pork with pigeon eggs was far too little, but today's dish had five times as many, which made her very happy.
That's quite a lot! Xia Yan noticed yesterday that the girl loved to eat it, so today he specially asked the chef to make five portions and pack them into a box to bring over.
I was planning to tell the girl I brought lunch for two when she came out for lunch, so it would be a waste if she didn't eat it.
No matter what, the girl had to have lunch with him.
But the girl didn't play by the rules; she had no intention of eating lunch at all.
And that's how the scene just now happened.
After finishing his meal, Xia Yan sat in his seat for a moment, then got up, greeted the girl, and left.
Jiang You couldn't understand why he had to report to her before going out, but she was worried about the two rooms that were still unfinished, so she went inside and continued cleaning.
At 3 p.m., after cleaning the last room, she immediately sent a message to the real estate agent.
Right Right Left Left: [Hello sister, I've finished cleaning the whole house.]
The real estate agent replied quickly.
Ms. Wang from AAA Human Resources Department: [The employer said the cleaning was very thorough, so I'll transfer the payment to you directly.]
Ms. Wang from AAA Human Resources Department: [By the way, the cosmetics factory you were considering joining is currently recruiting 15 people for packaging. Would you like to apply?]
Right Right Left Left: [No need, sister, I've found a new job.]
Jiang You thought about having 200,000 yuan in Alipay, and felt a little tipsy and lightheaded, as if she were dreaming. She chuckled to herself.
Ms. Wang from AAA Human Resources Department: [Where did you find this? Why didn't you register here?]
Right Right Left Left: [She's the one who cooks, older sister.]
Ms. Wang from AAA HR Department: [Okay, remember to contact me when you're looking for a job in the future, my pay is high.]
Right Right Left Left: [Okay, OK!]
After Jiang You collected the money, he slung his canvas bag over his shoulder, left Xia Yan's house, and arrived at Longxing Square.
There is a huge mobile phone store here.
She rushed inside excitedly, and came out with a new mobile phone worth over two thousand yuan.
She couldn't wait to get back to her dorm, so she found a secluded little pavilion in Longxing Square and started examining her new phone.
Longxing Square is very close to the Shizi Anime City, and you can see many people wearing anime-themed clothing passing by.
Jiang You was completely absorbed in studying her phone, and didn't even look up when someone sat down next to her.
She wasn't brought back to reality by something resting on her shoulder.
It was a person wearing a hoodie, whose head was resting on her shoulder with his head hanging down.
The hat covered most of her face, revealing only her sexy, rosy lips and fair skin.
Wearing a hoodie in the middle of summer, who is this person cosplaying? Won't they get heatstroke?
"oi, oi..." Jiang Youxin panicked a little. She shook her shoulders twice and called out twice before the man responded.
The man didn't leave; instead, he turned sideways and wrapped his arms around her waist.
Jiang You: "!!!"
The scent of pine wood in the snow, carrying a cool and tranquil atmosphere, enveloped Jiangyou.
The man buried his head in her neck, rubbing his lips against hers, his warm breath on her skin, and whispered, "My muse."
After saying that, he licked the girl's skin with the tip of his tongue and then sucked on it.
Jiang You's pupils contracted sharply, and he used all his strength to push the man in the hoodie away.
He fell to the ground, his hat fell off, revealing a beautiful face that was neither male nor female.
Her slightly wavy, flaxen-gray hair was very fluffy, and her clear, affectionate phoenix eyes looked like those of a beautiful, innocent spirit who had just descended from the mountain after cultivating to become human.
He was looking at her with a wronged and accusing expression.
You pushed me.
He spoke very softly, slowly, and ethereally.
"Push your mother, you lunatic!" Jiang You was frozen in place by the hoodie guy's good looks. Hearing his words, he immediately came to his senses, grabbed everything, and ran away.
There's nobody in the pavilion during the day; I never expected to run into a lunatic.
