Jiang Xu looked at Gu Li, who seemed calm, but Jiang Xu noticed that Gu Li clenched his back teeth for a moment and then relaxed them. Who was being stubborn? "If you're not going to open the door, then give me a call. I'll answer it."
Gu Li looked over, and Jiang Xu continued, "If I didn't go with you, I think there's no such 'if'."
"Finally, if you forget, just wait for me to ring your doorbell. I don't think I'll forget," he answered one by one. "I just hope the day I go isn't the day you have to improvise." His voice returned to its relaxed tone as he joked with Gu Li.
Gu Li's gaze never left Jiang Xu from the very first sentence. He looked into his eyes, trying to discern any other emotion in those pure black pupils, but all he saw in the end was seriousness.
Gu Li's throat tightened a little. He swallowed and then spoke, "I don't have to be so improvisational." He felt his voice should be normal, but he was also a little uncertain. "After all, I still think the morning is better than getting up at noon."
Jiang Xu, "Because we'll have more time?"
“Hmm,” Gu Li said, lightly rubbing her fingers against the chair, “also because there are more possibilities.”
One possibility seems to be related to the future.
As the main collaborator, Jiang Xu arrived at the site very early, earlier than most people.
The person in charge who was present at the scene this time was someone else entirely—the person from the company with which Jiang Xu had previously signed the sales contract, and also the person in charge of the home decoration company that Jiang Xu had chosen that time.
The person in charge, surnamed Zhang, was humble and knew how to handle things.
Jiang Xu thought the renovation was good when he first saw it, and he felt the same way after working together with the company.
The two arrived at the door, and Manager Zhang greeted them. After looking at them, he said, "Hello, Jiang. This must be your classmate."
Jiang Xu nodded. He had mentioned before that he would check on the participants, and it was clear that the person in charge, Zhang, knew this, which was why he addressed him that way. "I'll go in with someone for a bit first, and then I'll go to the participants."
Jiang Xu looked around the area and led Gu Li to a spot with a good view. "Wait here for me for a bit."
Gu Li nodded and sat down. "Go ahead and get busy. I'll entertain myself."
Jiang Xu, "Really?"
Gu Li: "Really? But if you stay too long, it might be fake."
Jiang Xu said, "I can't let the real thing turn into a fake one." He thought for a moment and then said, "I'll ask you to play games when I'm free later, okay?"
Gu Li said, "Waiting a little longer isn't a problem either." He gently nudged Jiang Xu's arm. "Of course you can. Go quickly and finish this quickly. I'll be waiting for you in the game."
Jiang Xu: "Okay, you can play for a while by yourself first."
Gu Li waved his hand, "I'll be waiting for you," he said, raising an eyebrow at Jiang Xu, "And don't forget my good show."
Jiang Xu, "I can't forget it."
Some people were exacerbating Jiang Xu's memory. He came to the contestants' preparation area, where there weren't many contestants.
He strolled around casually, chatting with the contestants occasionally about his insights into the competition. He planned to delve deeper into the competition during the official event, but personality was also a factor to consider.
Jiang Xu was like a drop of clear water, able to flow freely into any mountain, sea, or river, where he could chat and listen freely.
This is the scene Zhao Rangwen saw when he arrived. He arrived very late, and he repeatedly checked the production and explanation for any problems. Only after he was completely reassured did he set off.
He knew Jiang Xu had changed, but he didn't know why someone who used to be so reserved was not only arrogant, but also had a temperament he had never had before.
He seemed to belong to a noble family, and now he moved with ease among the crowd. He could talk eloquently, nod and smile patiently as he listened, and he could convince people and agree with others.
This wasn't right. Zhao Rangwen hurriedly walked into the crowd where Jiang Xu was, and only breathed a sigh of relief after he heard that they were just chatting and daydreaming.
It's just a topic like that; his professional knowledge can't possibly compare to mine.
He calmed down and waited to the side, ready to deny Jiang Xu's futile efforts.
Jiang Xu smiled and nodded to end the conversation, then stepped out from the center of the crowd and saw Zhao Rangwen.
He ignored others, but they came straight to him.
Upon seeing Jiang Xu arrive, Zhao Rangwen immediately asked the question that concerned him most, "Are you sure you invited Gu Li? Why didn't I see him?"
Jiang Xu replied with a very cold attitude, "Oh, really?"
Zhao Rangwen felt he must have been tricked. "If you can't get someone to come, don't make big promises. I should have gone to find someone myself. If I had, he would be sitting outside right now."
Jiang Xu wondered, "Gu Li isn't outside? Did he suddenly have something to do and leave?" He said dismissively, taking out his phone. Gu Li should have sent him a message if he left; surely he couldn't have missed it.
Zhao Rangwen: "Do you think I can't get him to come?"
Jiang Xu looked at his empty phone. "Please let me see it." Since there were no messages, he turned off the screen. Gu Li probably wouldn't leave.
Zhao Rangwen: "What...what do you mean?"
Jiang Xu tilted his head impatiently, "Do you have his contact information? Do you know where he lives? Do you know how to find him?"
Zhao Rangwen was speechless at Jiang Xu's words. He stubbornly retorted, "I just forgot to ask for it. You just met me a little earlier than I did."
Jiang Xu nodded, smiling warmly. "Sometimes, the order in which you appear determines the final result, and you don't have a chance."
Zhao Rangwen laughed meaningfully upon hearing this, "You think I don't know? Don't pretend, Jiang Xu, Gu Li is quickly losing interest in you."
So sometimes Jiang Xu doesn't dislike self-righteous people, because such people are always easy to understand, like right now.
Jiang Xu pursed his lips and looked at Zhao Rangwen in silence. "Say what you want." His tone softened slightly.
Zhao Rangwen felt even more certain that he had been right. "Hmph, just you wait and see."
Jiang Xu watched Zhao Rangwen's ecstatic appearance and wondered if Gu Li was acting too well. What was going on with this person's sudden dream of becoming the empress?
He shook his head slightly and continued with his next action. After gaining a basic understanding of the contestants' situations, Jiang Xu found a secluded spot to sit down and started tapping on his phone.
Gu Li was idly watching the people moving around when his phone vibrated beside him.
Jiang Xu: Are you bored?
Gu Li: It's not boring, it's quite nice.
Jiang Xu: Then log in?
Gu Li: Log in!
Jiang Xu opened the game and watched the loading bar, thinking that Zhao Rangwen was really blind. He couldn't even see people clearly and was chasing after thin air.
