Chapter 030 Chapter 30
A Yan and Zhu Jue, who were still on the highway, had no idea what Chu Bingbing was thinking.
In order to avoid the huge army of free highways during holidays, the Extreme Fleet only stopped briefly at necessary service areas to take care of emergencies and replenish supplies and refuel. The drivers in the team took turns to rest during the breaks and drove non-stop all the way to the northwest.
The so-called rapid march day and night is nothing more than this.
During the subsequent stops at service areas, Ayan and Zhu Jue would get off the bus to go to the restroom and walk around to stretch their legs.
Although the space inside the car is large, it is still relative to the car. It is inevitable that you will feel a little cramped if you stay in the car all day.
When we finally arrived at the first stop of the team test, the Monha Desert, Ayan almost did a set of radio gymnastics in front of the car after getting off the car.
The massage chair in the car is indeed very comfortable, but I feel like I'm going to become a useless person if I stay paralyzed like this, so I quickly get out and stretch.
This desert is a popular tourist destination because of its remote location, inadequate supporting resources, and the lack of local funds for promotion. The number of tourists is pitifully small.
As for the Extreme Team who rented the desert area for a short period of time for testing, the local tourism department was very welcoming. As a large company with a lot of money to spend, they not only negotiated with the team in advance to isolate a large exclusive testing area, but also had local guides who were familiar with the desert accompany them and did a lot of logistical work.
The temperature difference in the desert environment is large. Ah Yan asked Mr. Li. She thought that the test should be carried out in the morning and afternoon and evening when the temperature is relatively low. She didn't expect that the test should be carried out at different times. She was overwhelmed by the various terms such as heat insulation and so on.
Only good physical condition can support better work. Ah Yan was very tired when he got off the car, but seeing that other team members were in high spirits, it seemed that they could not wait to test the new car.
However, after a long journey, the hotel here had been booked in advance, and all team members checked in to rest and prepare for the next day's desert off-road.
In order to get as close to the desert as possible, the Jidao team booked the best hotel in the town, which was barely a three-star hotel. Ayan and Juejue stayed in a standard double room.
Mr. Li looked extremely guilty: "I am sorry for the inconvenience."
They didn't care. Ah Yan even said, "It's okay, it's okay. This is good."
But the more she spoke, the more guilty Mr. Li and Mr. Qin looked. Finally, they had no choice but to leave with their luggage.
She took a shower and sat on the bed, not feeling sleepy at all.
"Damn it, I slept too much." A Yan murmured.
There was really nothing else to do in the car, either watching TV series or movies, or sleeping, so her good schedule of going to bed early and getting up early at school was disrupted in just one day.
Ah Yan used his mobile phone to report his arrival to everyone at home and in the dormitory one by one, and sat on the bed in a daze with his wet hair wrapped in a headscarf.
"What are you thinking about?" Ah Yan was holding his face, not knowing what he was thinking.
Feeling that she had finished her shower, she found a dry towel and put it over her pajamas, then touched her hair which was half-dried by the hair bun.
Ah Yan tilted his head, "Nothing, I think you're done."
After taking a shower, Zhu Jue changed into the same style of puppy pajamas and short-sleeved T-shirt and shorts. He took out his own hair dryer from his backpack, and A Yan got out of bed on his own.
In the not-so-spacious bathroom, Ah Yan sat in front of a mirror that took up the upper half of the room on the only armchair with a backrest, while Zhu Jue fiddled with the hair dryer behind her to blow her hair.
The hair dryer made a lot of noise. Neither of them spoke. Ah Yan squinted his eyes. The wind from the hair dryer was kept at a decent distance from the hair, not too close to the scalp and burning it, nor too far away and out of reach.
The boy's hands gently brushed across his scalp and hair. He lowered his head and concentrated on blowing his hair. The fierce wind released by the electricity also became gentle in his hands, gently brushing across each strand of hair.
My hair feels fresh after washing, but the wind makes my heart itchy.
After blowing her hair until it was 80% dry, Ayan applied essential oil on it herself.
I've suggested that he apply the essential oil, but Ayan sternly refused.
It's not that she doesn't trust him, but blow-drying hair is a little fun, and applying essential oil afterwards might easily make her mistakenly think she's at Tony's hair washing scene.
After blow-drying her hair, Ayan moved a chair outside the bathroom. She squatted on the chair like a little mushroom, quietly watching Juejue washing clothes in front of the sink.
Although this hotel has a public washing machine, for the sake of cleanliness, Zhu Jue quickly washed the clothes that the two of them had worn for more than a day. The climate here is dry and preheated, so they should be dry overnight if they are hung.
The basin in the hotel bathroom was a little shallow, and some of the water in the basin overflowed when Zhu Jue was scrubbing. He temporarily took off his short-sleeved button-down pajamas and washed clothes with his bare chest.
The four pieces of clothing were washed in a short while, and he hung them in the shower using the folding hangers he brought with him.
Seeing him come out, Ayan, who was squatting on the chair, stood up suddenly. His legs felt a little sore and his balance was suddenly unstable. Zhu Jue hurried to hug him, and Ayan immediately put his arms around the back of his neck.
The broad arms are the result of long-term training, and the back stroked by fingers is smooth and powerful.
Ah Yan's warm fingertips rubbed across the firm abdominal muscles. The six-pack abs were clearly outlined and felt hard to the touch, but soft when poked carefully.
She poked and poked at it like a child who had found a toy.
Chest to chest, feeling the body tremble when poked, Ah Yan smiled slyly, "It's fun."
The soft black hair that had just been applied with essential oil was draped on the shoulders, and the tip of the nose was filled with warmth and a rich fragrance that made people dizzy.
Zhu Jue's ears were already red as blood. He pursed his lips, his throat rolling, and the hands around his waist became increasingly stiff, and he was at a loss.
At this time, Ah Yan's feet fell back on the chair again. She held Ruo Ruo's buttoned puppy pajamas in her hands and pouted: "Here, open your arms——"
Zhu Jue followed the instructions with his body stiff. Ah Yan stood on a stool and straightened his collar, then buttoned his pajamas one by one from the collar down.
"You can only touch my abdominal muscles."
Her eyes were sparkling on her fair face. Zhu Jue blushed as he carried her back to the bed and said awkwardly, "I'll let you touch me slowly in the future. You can play with me however you want."
Ah Yan's eyebrows curved when he heard that, and he pecked the corner of his lips.
Zhu Jue pretended to be calm and covered her with a quilt, then moved the chair back in place, and started cleaning the bathroom with an uncontrollable smile on his face.
Ah Yan was browsing her circle of friends. Many of her classmates had already returned home. Chu Bingbing had also arrived in Ningcheng. Those who didn't get tickets were still wailing, and some who rented cars were stuck in traffic. She was shocked. How terrible the short holiday was!
At this moment, the topic of the extreme car team is no longer on the hot search, and it has been replaced by topics related to traffic jams and passenger flow during the short holiday.
She looked at the schedule in the Jidao team group. There would be a whole day of testing tomorrow, and the meals they would eat in the car would be simple.
But they are not part of a tour group, everything they do is for work.
While looking at the schedule in the group, Ah Yan's ears moved. There was a noisy sound coming from the corridor, like someone was arguing.
"What's going on? Did the team have a quarrel?"
A Yan got downstairs to put on his shoes. The rooms of their Jidao team are all on this floor. Could there be any internal conflict?
A Yan and Zhu Jue opened the door together and looked outside, only to find that the team members opposite were also looking around with a confused look on their faces.
The four of them smiled at each other, with a look of spectators in their eyes.
"Xu Jiaojiao, let go——"
"Sister Su Nian is back, I have to go pick her up."
"Our journey ends here."
When they heard the specific content of the quarrel and the sound of talking, the smiles on Ayan and Juejue's faces froze in an instant.
【Rebirth Crematorium】
This was a halo that Ah Yan hadn't seen for more than a month, and it suddenly appeared before his eyes.
What the hell?
Xu Jiaojiao?
Could they have heard it wrongly?
But the halo in front of him clearly told Ah Yan the truth.
Yes, her old deskmate was also in this remote little hotel on the edge of the desert for some reason.
The angry boy seemed to have pushed the girl, and Xu Jiaojiao stepped back and fell to the ground. Tears appeared on her long eyelashes, and she fell to the ground and cried out in pain.
At this moment, she raised her head and met the eyes of A Yan and Zhu Jue who opened the door at the side.
"Ayan? Zhu Jue?" she asked in surprise.
Ah Yan:......
This is a bad fate sent by heaven. Oh God, I will fight you.
It was too late for her to close the door now. Besides, how could she ignore Xu Jiaojiao's look?
The two people in pajamas walked out of the door helplessly. Ah Yan looked at the high school bully Liang Ruichi in the corridor and frowned.
"Liang Ruichi, don't go too far."
Who would have thought that Liang Ruichi was overjoyed at the moment he saw them, "Zhu Jue, you guys are here too?"
"Great, I'll leave Xu Jiaojiao to you. I have to go pick up Sister Su Nian and take her home."
Having said that, he turned and left with the car key in his hand. The members of the Jidao team opposite Ayan looked at them with expressions as if they had eaten something big.
Ah Yan clenched her fists and helped Xu Jiaojiao up from the ground. She was wearing a snow-white dress, and her waist-length hair looked like crow feathers. She held her heart, looking fragile and touching.
She heaved a sigh of relief before speaking: "Why are you here?"
"Did Ningshida go on holiday early?"
"Rich said he wanted me to accompany him to the desert rally, so I took a day off in advance."
Xu Jiaojiao looked weak and spoke with tears in her eyes.
"Let's talk inside."
A Yan gave Jue Jue a look, and she followed Xu Jiaojiao into her room.
Xu Jiaojiao sat on the bed with her legs hugged, while A Yan sat calmly on the chair.
Her ill-fated relationship with Xu Jiaojiao began in high school.
Because they were repeatedly beaten by the geniuses Dabao and Xiaobao from the Tan family in junior high school, Gancui and Juejue went to Ningcheng's famous international high school in high school, which is commonly known as the aristocratic middle school. The annual fees start at hundreds of thousands, and there are both international classes and domestic classes.
Xu Jiaojiao, like her and Zhu Jue, are top students who were exempted from tuition and received high scholarships because of their excellent grades.
During the first three months of school, Ah Yan was still immersed in various club activities, and did not enjoy the joy of being surrounded by any high-profile people.
Although her desk mate Xu Jiaojiao looked thin and small and wore a pair of black-framed glasses, she was a nice person. They were not only desk mates but also roommates in a double dormitory, and they soon became good friends.
But what Ah Yan never expected was that one day at noon when the two of them finished their nap, when Xu Jiaojiao woke up, there was a golden halo on her head.
Yes, this is the third person with a halo that Ah Yan has ever seen in his life.
At that moment, she realized something was wrong.
After all, the combination of rebirth and crematorium is quite rare, and it caused her brain to crash for a long time.
On the afternoon when Xu Jiaojiao asked her to take a leave, Ah Yan's mind was filled with the words crematorium and rebirth. She wondered if Xu Jiaojiao was reborn after her ashes were burned in the crematorium? Or was she reborn as a ghost?
She called Tan Xiaobao that night and went to Baiyun Temple to ask for two amulets. However, it turned out that the amulets had no effect on Xu Jiaojiao at all.
In the following days, Xu Jiaojiao gradually subverted her previous image.
She lifted her heavy bangs and took off her large black-framed glasses, revealing her extremely delicate and beautiful face.
Her voice was no longer as soft as before, and her behavior was no longer as timid as before when she first entered high school. She became more generous and relaxed, with an indescribable temperament.
It was as if she was more mature than all of them. When Ah Yan was troubled by some school rules, Xu Jiaojiao would always look at her with doting eyes, like an older sister looking at a younger sister.
After that, Ah Yan didn't know since when, the cold and aloof academic master Ji Mingyan, who was number one in the grade, the school bully Liang Ruichi, who had a prominent family background, the senior student council president Wen Yu, and the young school director Mr. Shen were all involved with his deskmate Xu Jiaojiao.
Senior Wenrou takes good care of Xu Jiaojiao. The top student explains and answers questions for her, and the school bullies surround her. During the school banquet, they prepare makeup and skirts for Xu Jiaojiao in advance. The school director even proposes to increase grade scholarships and other projects, and Ayan and Juejue also benefit from this.
It was only after a long time that Ah Yan found out.
They were looking at another person through Xu Jiaojiao.
Su Nian, the eldest daughter of the Ningcheng Su family, has gone abroad to study.
She had seen Liang Ruichi cornering Xu Jiaojiao and saying with red eyes, "I'll give you my life."
I once heard his cold voice in the school dressing room: "Take this off. You won't look like Sister Su Nian if you wear another skirt."
In short, she and Juejue watched Xu Jiaojiao follow these four people all the way from high school to college.
Xu Jiaojiao was admitted to Ningxia Normal University, the top student and senior were in Ningcheng University, and the school bully was in Ningcheng Sports University.
If Ah Yan and Jue Jue stayed in Ningda, they would have to go to the same school as the two male guests. It was precisely to avoid further entanglement with them that the two came all the way to Bincheng to study.
But I never expected that the key to bad fate lies in the word "evil".
She is committing a sin!
A Yan waited expressionlessly for Xu Jiaojiao to start crying. Cry, cry, talk, it’s not a sin for a woman to cry.
Xu Jiaojiao was holding her legs at this moment, with her face and hair buried in her legs, feeling a little embarrassed.
She never expected to run into the couple A Yan and Zhu Jue in this barren place.
Is it because she provoked that idiot Liang Ruichi again yesterday that the place she is staying is different from that in her previous life?
Today is a very important first day in my past life memories because Su Nian returned to China.
After living a new life, Xu Jiaojiao is very clear about what's going on.
As soon as the men surrounding her heard the news about Su Nian, they wanted to fly over immediately.
So she still pretended to be desperate as in her previous life, holding Liang Ruichi and not letting him leave.
The more this happened, the more he rebelled and hated her. As soon as Su Nian left for vacation, he returned to her like a dog.
The same goes for several others.
Men, most of them are losers.
The more Su Nian acted like this, the more distant she was from them, the more itchy they felt and the more they missed her.
And if she was as obedient as she was in her previous life, loving him madly and giving her all, she would be just feeding her true love to a vicious dog.
If you ask her why she is still entangled with these four pieces of trash after her rebirth, she actually doesn't know.
Is it reluctance? Is it hatred? Is it disgust?
Xu Jiaojiao only knew that she had an extraordinary understanding of these four men.
She wants money.
It costs a lot of money.
In her previous life, she refused to accept their things and was considered to be pretending to be noble.
But if I accept it and get looked down upon, isn't it because they are attracted by my money? Do you think you can compete with Su Nian?
From high school to college graduation, she was entangled in confusion for more than seven years. She could not remember any stocks, real estate, fund growth, nor the first prize of the Double Color Ball.
She came from a poor family and was almost supported by these people in her previous life. She went from being frugal to luxurious and could no longer live the life she had in high school.
But the four men around her happened to be very rich.
Not to mention whether it is moral to take money from a man, aren’t the youth and sincerity she gave in her previous life worthless?
Xu Jiaojiao knew them too well. Each person’s temperament, preferences, words, and even every change in expression were all under her control.
So in this life, she is still playing this substitute game with them. The only difference is that this time she is the one who organizes the game and sits in the bank.
She imitated Su Nian in advance, appeared in front of them in advance, acted like she was deeply in love, and forced them to give her the house, car, and money as compensation with a guilty heart.
Every time Su Nian returns to China, it is just a temporary solution, making these men even crazier. Xu Jiaojiao calculates the assets she has at hand. At the current rate, she only hopes that Su Nian can return to China a few more times if nothing happens.
When Su Nian completes her studies and returns to China, it will be time for her to retire with her house, car, shares, large savings and various bags.
Sister Nian, I will never snatch away your dogs.
I, Xu Jiaojiao, only want their money.
Facing Ah Yan who was worried about her, Xu Jiaojiao felt very guilty.
If you want to deceive others, you have to deceive yourself. I don’t know how much Ah Yan has helped me in the past three years of high school, but in order to maintain her current personality, she can only continue.
At this moment, her eyes were blurred with tears, "Ayan, tell me, what does Ruichi think of me?"
"Substitute." Ah Yan thought to himself.
But she didn't say that. Instead, she gave a skillful and heartfelt talk.
"Jiaojiao, there may be some who come first and some who come later in life, but who says that the last comer can't be the last one to come?"
Xu Jiaojiao insisted on enduring the pain of this love, what could she do?
Xu Jiaojiao's eyes were filled with tears. Ah Yan was so simple that he supported her no matter what.
"If, if one day, I decide to leave, will you support me?"
Ah Yan showed an official smile, "Of course."
"I support you no matter what."
In the context of this question, we can neither deny nor absolutely affirm.
After all, this was the 1,328th time Xu Jiaojiao said she had left, but she was still entangled with the four male guests.
"No matter who you choose or who you marry, I will bless you because you are my friend and it is your choice. I hope you live a happy life."
"Whether you give up on someone or leave, I still wish you the same. I wish you to leave the past behind and have a broader and newer life."
Ah Yan spoke seriously, and she was speaking from the heart.
For the friend who is extremely in love with the brain, if she has to hit her head against the wall before turning back, then go ahead and hit it. When her head is broken and bleeding and she feels the pain, she will pull her to get the wound bandaged and healed.
If she gave up, backed off, and stopped insisting, Yan would be happier.
She has always known that after her rebirth, Xu Jiaojiao has an indescribable stubbornness.
Ah Yan never understood the meaning of the crematorium in that halo. It couldn't be that Xu Jiaojiao was reborn and burning her own life, right?
People have nightmares and their hearts are blocked. She will wait for the flowers to bloom when the barriers are broken. There will always be such a day.
Xu Jiaojiao felt a lump in her nose at this moment. It was no longer fake tears, but the uncontrollable sourness that surged in her heart.
Ah Yan, her greatest fortune in life is to have a friend like this.
How could such a despicable person like her have such a great honor? How lucky she is!
With friends like this, what else could I ask for in life!
She quickly wiped away her tears with a tissue and turned the conversation to Ayan and Zhu Jue in a muffled nasal voice.
Xu Jiaojiao looked at Ah Yan who was wearing white and pink puppy pajamas. He was sitting obediently on the chair with his hair down, looking at her with concern in his big eyes. Xu Jiaojiao felt that her heart, which had been frozen and hardened by the destruction of her previous life, had melted, and her eyes became even more sour.
When she retires completely, she will give Ah Yan a big gift.
Thinking of Yan and Zhu Jue studying in Bincheng, she asked with concern: "Yan, how is Bincheng University? How is your roommate?"
Ah Yan nodded, "Everything is going well, it's good, and my roommates are also very harmonious."
Although they are all people with halos and accidents are unavoidable in life, their tempers and personalities are indeed good. It's just that they are prone to small misunderstandings, such as Ding Ling's strange train of thought, which are all trivial matters.
"Is everything okay with you and your family? If there is a problem, please tell me."
Xu Jiaojiao's eyes sparkled. After living a new life, she had already stopped believing in love. However, in the past three years with A Yan and Zhu Jue, she realized that perhaps there really is pure love in the world, but it does not belong to her.
She sincerely wishes her best to her best friend Ayan, but Ayan went to Bincheng and she doesn't know the situation there.
"We are the same as before." Ah Yan smiled and didn't say much. After all, Xu Jiaojiao was heartbroken, and if she said anything, it would be like showing off by exposing someone's scars.
Xu Jiaojiao knew that Ah Yan was doing well just by looking at her tender face, and she looked at Ah Yan tenderly.
If Zhu Jue showed any improper behavior, she would never let him go.
Ah Yan looked at Xu Jiaojiao's swollen eyes and stood up from her chair: "I'll go get you two eggs. See if there are any ice cubes."
Ah Yan had just walked out of the door. The sound of the door opening in this hotel was a bit loud. She came out with the room card and mobile phone, and saw people popping their heads out of the rooms one by one. The previously extremely capable President Qin pushed up his glasses and looked at her.
Ah Yan smiled helplessly, it seems like you guys are all waiting to see the show.
Seeing the logistics staff, she asked, "There should be eggs here in the hotel, right? Do you have ice cubes?"
"Yes, yes, we provide breakfast here. There must be eggs. I also saw an ice machine." A young girl immediately came out wearing a sunscreen jacket.
"I'll come too, I'll come too."
"I know where it is!"
"Director Yan, I'll lead the way for you."
As they took the elevator downstairs together, Yan saw someone in the hotel lobby who shouldn't be there.
One of Xu Jiaojiao's four male guests, the aloof and academic master Ji Mingyan.
At this time, Ji Mingyan, dusty and exhausted, came to the front desk with his bag in his hand to ask if there was a young lady named Xu living here.
Ah Yan:.......
One just left and another one comes, right?
Also, what's with this "rebirth" halo around your head?
This has never happened before!
She quickly picked up her phone to send messages to Juejue and Xu Jiaojiao, then turned around and went to the restaurant.
At this time, Mr. Li, who had just finished negotiating with the local leaders, walked into the lobby again and was horrified to see Ah Yan, who had just gotten out of his pajamas.
"Director Yan, if you need anything, call me. Put on some clothes quickly. The air conditioner is too cold. Don't freeze."
Mr. Li was eager to hand over his suit, and Ji Mingyan, who heard the voice, saw Ah Yan at this moment, and his eyes lit up without revealing any information at the front desk.
"Ayan, where is Jiaojiao?"
In an instant, Ah Yan felt that the crowd of people around him couldn't help but get excited, and they all smelled the scent of a big melon.
She avoided Mr. Li's suit with a calm expression, "It's okay, Mr. Li, thank you."
She really thanks Mr. Li!
