Chapter 24: Spy on me?
Jiang Xu looked at He Yanting coldly.
Her eyes made He Yanting feel inexplicably uneasy.
It was a calmness that was almost like stagnant water. There was no longer the lingering love of the past, and there was not even a hint of entanglement.
It's like a pot of boiling water that has completely cooled down after going through something unknown.
His Adam's apple rolled slightly, and He Yanting hugged her tighter: "Ruanruan, actually I..."
"Fourth brother, Xue Ruo is crying so hard, go comfort her!"
Lin Yue suddenly ran over.
When he saw He Yanting holding Jiang Xu, his eyes widened like bells and he didn't know what expression to make.
Huo Qiyu also ran over: "It's over, Xue Ruo ran away. She's very emotional. Is she in danger?"
"Fourth brother, this area is not safe."
Lin Yue reminded.
He Yanting's eyes flickered slightly, and he said to Jiang Xu, "Wait for me, I have something to tell you when I come back."
After saying that, he let her go and left quickly with Huo Qiyu.
Lin Yue looked at Jiang Xu in confusion, then turned around and chased after him.
The corridor suddenly became quiet. Jiang Xu stood alone for a long time, leaning against the wall as if exhausted.
After a while, the waiter passed by and asked, "Miss, are you okay?"
Jiang Xu shook his head, asked where the elevator was, and left.
When she returned to the box, no one seemed to notice that she had been away for a long time. Jiang Xu sat in the corner of the sofa, daydreaming.
She recalled some details from the past.
That winter came especially cold early, she caught a cold and stayed in the dormitory for two days.
He Yanting called her three times a day to supervise her taking her medicine on time.
When she finally felt better and was able to get out of bed, He Yanting asked her what she wanted to eat, and she joked that she wanted to eat the pan-fried buns from the shop on the street.
The store is far from the school, and it takes nearly three hours to drive there and back. You have to go early to queue up, otherwise you won’t be able to get a ticket.
Jiang Xu forgot about it after he finished speaking, and snowflakes fell from the sky that night.
The next morning, Jiang Xu and his classmates went to morning class. As soon as they went downstairs, they heard many classmates whispering about something.
"Oh my god, so handsome."
"You're probably waiting for Jiang Xu. I'm so jealous."
"I heard they've been waiting here since daybreak."
As soon as Jiang Xu walked out the door, he saw a tall and straight figure standing at the bottom of the stairs.
He Yanting was wearing a long black coat and the camel-colored cashmere scarf she had given him. His handsome face, deep and noble, was red from the cold.
Jiang Xu was heartbroken and walked over quickly, ignoring the looks of his classmates around him.
"It's so cold, why are you standing here?"
He Yanting grinned, suddenly opened his coat, and like a magic trick, took out a brown paper bag from his arms.
"It's still warm."
Jiang Xu opened it and saw that it was a pan-fried bun from a street shop.
She was surprised and asked, "Did you buy it?"
He Yanting held her hand and said, "Don't worry about it. Take it in and eat it quickly, otherwise it will get cold."
Jiang Xu looked at the layer of snow falling on his shoulders and head, and her nose felt sore: "How long have you been waiting here?"
He Yanting scratched the back of his head, a little embarrassed: "Not long."
Jiang Xu angrily pinched his high, red nose from the cold: "He Yanting, I don't want you to work so hard. When can't you eat buns?"
He Yanting grabbed her little hand and smiled sweetly: "Isn't our Ruanruan sick? She wants to eat this, so am I not satisfied?"
"fool!"
Jiang Xu threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.
To this day, Jiang Xu still remembers that snowy morning. The air was so cold, but He Yanting's embrace was as warm as spring.
At that time, He Yanting had already been identified as the heir to Shengyu Group.
Moreover, he is handsome and outstanding in appearance, and his academic performance is excellent. He is the most highly rated school idol in the history of A University.
Who wouldn't fall for such a man who loves her wholeheartedly?
"Jiang Xu, why are you crying?"
A colleague's voice interrupted Jiang Xu's thoughts.
Jiang Xu wiped away her tears and smiled, "You sang so well, it moved me."
My colleague was pleasantly surprised: "Oh, not really, but people did say it was a shame that I wasn't a singer."
After the party, Jiang Xu separated from everyone.
Luo Jiaming came over and walked side by side with her: "You were crying just now, was it because of He Yanting?"
Jiang Xu lowered his head and said nothing.
Luo Jiaming said: "You were so clear-headed when you were advising me, why did you become confused when it came to you? I don't deny his ability, but the more resourceful a person is, the colder his heart is."
Jiang Xu stopped beside her car and looked at him calmly: "Thank you for your concern, I have my own plans."
Luo Jiaming curled his lips: "I believe you will make a wise choice."
Not far away, Zhuang Ze was sighing in the car.
Suddenly I saw a scene not far away and cursed, "Damn it".
"This Jiang Xu is really good. On the one hand, she pretends to be affectionate with the fourth brother, and on the other hand, she keeps fish outside."
He immediately took the photo.
Jiang Xu drove for a distance when he was suddenly blocked by a car.
She stepped on the brakes, got out of the car angrily, and patted the driver's window of the car.
The car window rolled down, revealing Zhuang Ze's provocative face.
When Jiang Xu saw this face, he felt that he deserved a beating and asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing?"
Zhuang Ze, holding a cigarette in his mouth, said vaguely, "Don't stir up trouble in front of Fourth Brother anymore, otherwise—"
He raised his phone and shook it proudly.
“I’ll just send him these pictures.”
Jiang Xu took a closer look and smiled: "You can send it now."
Zhuang Ze's expression changed. "If Fourth Brother saw these photos, wouldn't you be afraid that your dream of becoming Mrs. He would be shattered?"
Jiang Xu didn't say anything, snatched his phone and sent the photo to He Yanting.
Zhuang Ze was stunned: "You, are you crazy?"
A few seconds later, He Yanting called.
Jiang Xu pressed the answer button.
"Where is she?"
He Yanting's cold voice came.
Just as Jiang Xu was about to speak, a delicate and weak voice came from the other side: "Brother Yan Ting, are you really not angry with me?"
Jiang Xu said, "I was in the parking lot. Did you ask these lackeys to monitor me?"
He Yanting was silent for a few seconds.
"Ruanruan, listen to me, I never asked anyone to monitor you. This was all their own decision."
Zhuang Ze:?
No, was he sold out so ruthlessly?
"But aren't you in too much contact with Luo Jiaming?"
He Yanting's voice was a little subdued, and he was obviously trying to control his temper. "Don't forget, you are engaged."
Jiang Xu sneered: "Why, I can't even talk to others?"
He Yanting's voice lowered a bit: "But they are of the opposite sex, so you should be careful when you are alone with them."
Jiang Xu asked back, "Are you and Jiang Xueruo the same sex?"
He Yanting: “…”
Seeing that he was speechless, Jiang Xu hung up the phone and threw it into Zhuang Ze's car.
Zhuang Ze sat there for a few seconds with his phone in his hand, watching Jiang Xu's back as she left. Her back was straight and her long hair was blown into a graceful curve by the evening breeze.
He tutted.
Why do I suddenly feel that Jiang Xu is a bit cool?
The only person in the world who dares to confront Fourth Brother like this and successfully leaves him speechless is probably Jiang Xu, right?
"Holy shit, what was I thinking!"
Zhuang Ze suddenly woke up and slapped his head frantically, "I actually admired that woman, I'm crazy!"
In the Rolls-Royce Phantom.
There were still pitiful tears hanging on Jiang Xueruo's eyelashes.
"Brother Yan Ting, did I cause you to be misunderstood by her?"
He Yanting stared at the hung up phone for a long time without saying a word.
After a while, he said to Jiang Xueruo, "No one blames you for what happened tonight. Stop blaming yourself."
Jiang Xueluo nodded obediently: "Then should we go back and make a wish and blow out the candles?"
"Make a wish?"
He Yanting's gaze suddenly turned to an uncertain point outside the window.
His eyes flashed, and he said to the driver, "Send Xue Ruo back to school."
After saying that, he got out of the car and left alone.
