Chapter 91 I Love Him So Much
Wen Xi has been staying at Jiang Jinyue's house these days.
I got up in the middle of the night to drink some water, but to my surprise the light in the study was still on.
Huh? Didn't they already finish that production? Why are you still staying up late?
There was a 10cm gap in the study door. From this angle, one could just see Jiang Jinyue sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, her hands on her knees. A yellow light shone on half of her face, making her look lonely and desolate.
Wen Xi raised his cell phone, took a picture of the scene, and then knocked on the door gently.
"Enter."
"What's wrong with you? Are you worried about something?" Wen Xi lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of disturbing the lonely soul of the girl in front of him.
Jiang Jinyue pursed her lips, her face looking a little heavy, even her eyes red. She said, "Bai Yuqing is in trouble."
"Ah?! What happened to him?" Hearing this, Wen Xi was also panicked. How could a grown man suddenly get into trouble?
"He didn't text me goodnight last night."
Wen Xi was waiting for her to continue speaking, but she fell silent.
Wen Xi blinked, somewhat incredulously: "...So what happened to him? Is it because if I don't say goodnight, you'll sentence him to a lifetime of loneliness?"
Jiang Jinyue: "..."
"Don't you think he didn't text me goodnight because something happened?"
"Ah..." Wen Xi suddenly calmed down and touched his chin. "That's a possibility, but it's very unlikely. Can't you just give him a call? It should be daytime over there now."
Jiang Jinyue held the phone, pursed his lips, and looked up at her. His eyes looked particularly big, but they were full of hesitation.
"Xiaojiu, what are you worried about?"
"I..." Jiang Jinyue handed the phone to Wen Xi, "This is our chat history from the past few days. Scroll up. He's the one doing most of the talking, and I can only reply after I'm done with my work. Sometimes I even forget to reply after I'm done."
"You said, he didn't reply to me, is it possible that he is angry?"
Wen Xi fiddled with his phone for a few times, put it down, and squatted in front of Jiang Jinyue. "You've been working with the crew lately, so isn't it normal for you to be busy? I've been living with you, and sometimes I don't even see you for a whole day."
"But... he's also very busy, and he still works so hard to keep us chatting."
"Please," Wen Xi sat cross-legged on the ground and looked at her, "He is the boss, but you are now a worker with no say. His time is his, and your time is being exploited. How can it be the same?"
That makes a lot of sense.
Jiang Jinyue nodded, but still had no intention of making a call.
Wen Xi now understood that Xiao Jiu was avoiding a possible outcome.
"So do you hope he's in trouble, or angry?"
"Of course I'm angry. I can coax him. Everything will be fine after coaxing him." Jiang Jinyue answered quickly, but he became less and less confident as time went on.
Sure enough, Wen Xi thought, how did that sentence go?
——Love is always feeling indebted.
"Then you call him now. If he's in trouble, take care of him. If he's angry, comfort him. Isn't that all?"
Wen Xi stuffed the phone into Jiang Jinyue's hand.
Why do we say that those involved are often confused while those who are on the sidelines can see things more clearly? Because the solution is very simple, but people’s minds are always complicated.
Jiang Jinyue looked at Wen Xi, and with her encouragement, he dialed the number, but he didn't expect that after the call, he would be notified that the phone was turned off.
The two looked at each other, and Wen Xi immediately asked, "Do you know any of his friends? Call them and ask."
At this moment, in the early morning when the sun had not yet risen, Jiang Jinyue, like a little puppet that could be pointed at anywhere, nodded and called Eric.
Eric said, "He flew to see you. He's probably on the plane now."
Hearing this, Jiang Jinyue breathed a sigh of relief.
A smile appeared on his face as the sky turned white.
"You, you," Wen Xi looked at her. No matter how mature and steady she usually behaved, she was still a 20-year-old girl in her first love. "How much do you love him?"
Jiang Jinyue grinned and did not answer, but thought in her heart: I love him so much.
The cool breeze that night, coupled with the physical fatigue, spiritual emptiness, loneliness after high-intensity work, and... the fear that this relationship might end.
Let her successfully fall ill at the moment the sun rises.
First, I felt sore all over, then my heart beat faster, and I felt cold even under the quilt.
It feels so uncomfortable.
People really can't just be idle all of a sudden.
But she still got up from the bed, wrapped herself in clothes, and forced herself to see Wen Xi out. When Wen Xi heard that Bai Yuqing was coming, it was naturally impossible for her to continue staying there, so she planned to return to Boston.
After seeing Wen Xi off, she took the elevator upstairs alone.
Unexpectedly, I met Noah.
He didn't live here all the time, and they probably only saw each other three times a whole year.
As usual, Jiang Jinyue said a simple hello and was about to go home.
This time, Noah stopped her.
"Luna."
Jiang Jinyue turned around and felt that the look in his eyes was a little subtle, with curiosity, pity, and heartache. In the complex gaze, he spoke in a steady tone, as if discussing the weather, and asked her: "Do you want to go bungee jumping?"
She used to like extreme sports. At that time, she was still young, and her family was naturally worried, so they always ordered Noah to accompany her.
This is also a way for her to release stress.
But at this moment, this sentence was a bit abrupt. "What? You said... go bungee jumping?"
Realizing Luna's confusion, Noah began to explain, "You're in a very bad state right now."
How can it not be bad if you are sick?
How to go bungee jumping when you are sick.
Jiang Jinyue wanted to laugh and joked with him, "Why do you think I'm in such a bad state?"
Jiang Jinyue asked directly, and Noah also said directly: "You broke up."
"..." Jiang Jinyue was stunned for a moment. It seemed that there were a lot of people who had been asking them whether they had broken up or not recently.
Their relationship seems so fragile?
Noah still looked like a self-righteous nobleman, and it was with this look that he said the following: "Honestly speaking, I think when a woman is at her lowest point, that's the best time to take advantage of her."
Jiang Jinyue lowered her eyes and smiled because of his honesty.
"He and I have not broken up." She was the first to clarify the rumor.
Then he said: "Noah, I am not a person who needs to fill the void by relying on others. So that approach, it doesn't work for me."
"If I'm sick, I can take care of myself."
"Yes." Noah was a little disappointed, but he hid it well.
She has always been a very strong and independent girl. When she was young, she fell ill once. She diagnosed her condition herself, took out the medicine box at home, checked the instructions one by one, prescribed the right medicine for herself, and even used ice to cool herself down.
The adults were horrified when they found out and immediately took her to the hospital for a check-up.
Noah suddenly thought of this and frowned and asked, "Are you sick?"
"Well, it's not serious. Just take some rest." Jiang Jinyue smiled slightly, nodded, and was about to open the door and go home.
At this moment, the elevator door opened.
A... handsome guy who looked a little down and out appeared at the elevator entrance holding a bouquet of flowers.
"Ajiu."
