Chapter 32
Jiang Rong turned her head and looked over. Their eyes met. The smile on Shen Jianye's face froze. He had no idea what had happened. Jiang Rong and Xiao Min went out to throw away the garbage, and when they came back, why did she suddenly change her expression, as if he didn't know her at all.
The strangeness in his eyes made Shen Jianye’s heart tighten.
Shen Jianye originally thought that he might have seen it wrong, but before he could speak again, Jiang Rong said directly: "Something happened at home, I have to go back to my house."
After she finished speaking, regardless of Shen Jianye's expression or the risk of debt collection at home, she turned around and left, quickly brushing past Shen Jianye. Shen Jianye stretched out his hand to stop her but failed, and could only watch the girl's back.
Fortunately, he had already filed a lawsuit against the debt collection company, and they should not come again, so Shen Jianye was still relieved about Jiang Rong's safety. He just didn't know what had happened to make Jiang Rong's face suddenly change.
Shen Jianye couldn’t help but look sideways: “Xiao Min, what did you talk about with her?”
Xiao Min was also confused. She saw Jiang Rong's face becoming increasingly ugly. She pursed her lips and said, "I just said that expired bread can only be thrown away and not given to others. Isn't that what you asked for?"
“I was fined before.”
Shen Jianye frowned slightly, if it was because of this matter…
It doesn't make sense. What does this have to do with Jiang Rong? If she thinks it's a waste of food, she can just talk to me. I don't have to obey everything, but at least I have never listened to anything Jiang Rong mentioned to me until now. But now she is inexplicably angry and turned away.
Although it doesn't make sense, intuitively, it might be because of that incident.
Shen Jianye asked Xiao Min to tell him everything in detail again. After hearing what happened before, he pursed his lips and guessed that Jiang Rong probably knew that girl. Fortunately, there were surveillance cameras at the front and back doors of the store. Shen Jianye went to look for her according to the time in Xiao Min's memory.
If it was before, he might not be able to tell who the girl with the masked face was, but now...
.
Jiang Rong originally thought she would be sad, but what surged in her heart was anger. It was a feeling of being deceived by someone she trusted. She didn't know how someone could keep acting.
Or was it that I was just too naive and had a preconceived notion that he was a good person?
Jiang Rong crumpled up all the treasured packaging bags in the drawer and threw them into the trash can. She rubbed her red eyes and sighed. The redness around her eyes spread on her eyelids. Jiang Rong took several deep breaths before she recovered. She thought of what Lin Yue had said about her innocence. She had sworn at the time that Shen Jianye was really a good person and asked Lin Yue not to think too much.
Now I really want to go back and slap myself to wake myself up. This might be the kind of love brain they say on the Internet...
Seeing the figure outside the window, Jiang Rong lay down in the quilt without thinking, covering her head with her phone and sending a message to Lin Yue. Lin Yue had said before that she could complain about anything and talk about anything. She silently blocked Shen Jianye's message and then started typing: [I found out that Shen Jianye is a big liar! ]
Lin Yue: [? ]
【! 】
【what happened! ! 】
Jiang Rong typed in the input box for a long time, not knowing what to say. After all, to be honest, she was even a little self-indulgent.
But now I have a feeling that everything that is based on my other cognition is wrong because the foundation is wrong. Now the entire high-rise building called Shen Jianye has completely collapsed.
Faced with Lin Yue's question, Jiang Rong hesitated again and again, and could only say ambiguously: "He lied to me, it was all fake!"
Lin Yue on the other end of the chat box was silent for a while, and suddenly said: [You know everything? ]
Jiang Rong subconsciously asked: [Know what?]
I didn't tell anyone about the expired bread someone gave me that night, so it was obvious that Lin Yue and I were not talking about the same thing.
Jiang Rong laughed in anger and asked, "Are you also colluding with me to deceive me?!"
Lin Yue quickly sent an emoji of someone wiping their sweat: [No, no, I just knew before you that Shen Jianye was going to confess his feelings...]
Jiang Rong immediately raised several question marks:
【? 】
【? ? 】
【???】
The next moment, Lin Yue called and asked tremblingly, "Has he not confessed his feelings yet?"
He almost confessed everything without asking, and told all of Shen Jianye's plan in one go. Jiang Rong's face was filled with shame and anger for a moment. She felt that he had such thoughts. If it were her previous self, she would definitely be very happy, but she was also angry that he deceived her.
He is not a good person at all!
Lin Yue didn't feel anything else, but she could hear the anger in Jiang Rong's tone and comforted her several times. Then she heard Jiang Rong ask, "If someone deceives you, even if he treats you well, would you accept his confession?"
She didn't mention the name, but both of them knew who she was talking about. Lin Yue sighed and didn't help with any advice. She just said, "It depends on what you want to do. If it's not a confession, then you should wait and see what's in your heart."
Jiang Rong felt that Shen Jianye probably wouldn't wait any longer. Her stinky face just now should have been quite obvious. However, no matter whether it was her misunderstanding or not, she definitely didn't know how to face Shen Jianye now.
While he was struggling, a text message came to his phone: [Are you curious about Shen Jianye's home? ]
Jiang Rong ignored him for a moment, turned off her phone, threw it aside, covered her head and fell asleep completely. The person on the other end of the phone kept sending messages, and only stopped when she didn't reply until late at night.
And Lin Yue did not forget the relationship between Shen Jianye and his father. He pursed his lips and sent a text message to tell him that he had exposed his plan.
It was a good night's dream. Jiang Rong thought she would be angry in her dream, but surprisingly, she slept quite well. Although she felt that she had been deceived, it was probably because of Lin Yue's exposure that Jiang Rong didn't know what to do.
But if he really confessed...
Jiang Rong felt that she should refuse.
It was not only because of her own self-conceit, but also because she had a sense of distrust towards the current Shen Jianye.
So at night Jiang Rong simply emptied her mind and went to sleep. She was afraid that she was just fantasizing, and if she rejected Shen Jianye's confession, Shen Jianye would be angry. So she didn't think about it anymore, but fell asleep with a curled mouth.
As a result, when she woke up and picked up her phone, she saw Lin Yue's message from last night, saying that Teacher Wang was bullying children who knew nothing and deliberately bullied Jiang Rong, but Shen Jianye helped win the battle yesterday. Now Teacher Wang has been transferred, and Li Tong also felt ashamed. She was afraid that her classmates would know that she had secretly given money, so she had already transferred to another school.
Jiang Rong's mood improved. Shen Jianye was really quick and very kind to her, but what was he really like?
Just as I was thinking about the strange number last night, I saw the message he had been sending until late at night: [You are a substitute, you have been deceived! ]
【If you don’t believe it, you can go ask Shen Jianye. 】
…
Jiang Rong, who had just woken up from a few kind words from Lin Yue, unceremoniously sent two words: [I don't believe it], without even a period. Perhaps because the person on the other end was so angry that he hadn't slept all night, he immediately replied: [If you don't believe it, don't leave after school. I'll take you to see it.]
After that, he also sent a photo of Shen Jianye when he was a child. Jiang Rong saved the photo silently, muttering, “I’ll use this photo to fight back against him next time.”
I typed a reply on my hand: [OK]
Although she felt awkward afterwards, she still opened the chat box with Shen Jianye. She thought he had sent a lot of messages, so she deliberately chose to block him. But in the end, he only sent a few messages. When she saw that she had no response, he didn't send any more messages.
This made Jiang Rong laugh. After a while, she started to read what he had posted: [What's wrong?]
[Who offended you? Why do you suddenly want to go home? ]
[If you want to return it, go ahead. You don't have to worry about debt collection. Are you free tomorrow night? I want to give you a surprise.]
Jiang Rong silently replied: [I’m busy.]
I don't know if he was also holding his phone, but he quickly replied: [OK, what do you want to eat tonight?]
Jiang Rong said again: [I have something to go out for.]
It can be said that the rejection was clear and clear, and Shen Jianye was stunned for a moment. After all, when they first met, Jiang Rong had never been so cold to him. Shen Jianye subconsciously pursed his lips, typed a line of words and deleted them one by one, and hesitated for a long time before asking: [Are you still going this weekend? ]
If Shen Jianye hadn't mentioned Jiang Rong, he would have almost forgotten that he had to go see his father on weekends. Because the prison was a long way away, he usually just called the police uncle for help. He almost forgot about it in his memory. All that was left was the image of him, his mother, and his uncle finishing their conversation and parting on bad terms.
Jiang Rong calmly replied: [Yeah.]
After sending it, he put away his phone, leaving Shen Jianye on the other end of the phone regretful, regretting why he didn't ask a few more questions to find out whether he was still going there together, or whether it was the same itinerary as discussed before.
Jiang Rong knew nothing about Shen Jianye’s entanglement, and inexplicably felt as if she was throwing a tantrum, and to Shen Jianye, he was indeed innocent, but Jiang Rong was just very sad.
It is possible that Shen Jianye fostered his own little temper. Jiang Rong smiled, and unknowingly learned to pass the blame around Shen Jianye.
But after doing this, I really felt a lot better.
After packing her schoolbag, she suddenly remembered that she had not read the letter from Xiaolu carefully. She just saw the news that she had become an adult, so she gave the letter to Lin Yue. She vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a few more words at the end. She opened the letter and took a look, and the corners of her mouth instantly drooped.
On the other side of the letter, Xiaolu mainly said that she had paid the rent and that the landlord was a handsome man, the owner of the coffee shop downstairs, named Shen something. She then asked Jiang Rong if she could come and live in her new home if she had nowhere to live. She said that the person she was most worried about over the years was herself, and she also left a mobile phone number.
Jiang Rong laughed angrily as she thought about it. If she remembered correctly, they had talked about rent on the first day she went to his house. No wonder he looked a little strange at that time.
Oh!
