There's a thief in your house.
So that night, the two of them were separated by a wall and neither of them slept well.
Luo Yuwen was very confused. The two of them were so close in the afternoon that if he leaned forward a little, their lips would touch.
But he dodged and left Jiang Shuiying alone in the kitchen. Although he was the one who cleaned up the kitchen later, he still caught a glimpse of Jiang Shuiying's angry eyes out of the corner of his eye.
He didn't know why he avoided it, just like he didn't know why he helped Jiang Shuiying pick garlic. He didn't know.
He didn't understand whether his feelings for Jiang Shuiying were gratitude or love.
"well."
Luo Yuwen turned sideways and buried his face in the quilt, but his eyes were clear and there was not a trace of sleepiness.
Jiang Shuiying on the other side was also lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling.
There is only one reason why Jiang Shuiying went to so much trouble to do all this, and that is that she knows that Luo Yuwen likes her and likes her very much, but he has never taken the last step.
But the more she looked at him, the angrier she became. She kicked her feet and threw herself on the bed, burying her voice in the quilt.
"I won't listen to any soft or hard words. I'm so annoyed!!!"
My hints were so obvious, but this man actually ran away when I was about to succeed!
Jiang Shuiying was so angry that she couldn't sleep, so she simply sat up, turned on the bedside lamp, and began to look around Luo Yuwen's room.
Luo Yuwen's room had almost no decoration. It was a small room with only a bed, a wardrobe, and a bedside table. There was nothing else.
As she looked, Jiang Shuiying's eyes fell on the suitcase she had thrown in the corner.
Jiang Shuiying snorted coldly and came up with another plan in his mind.
The next morning, Luo Yuwen got up early on purpose. In order to avoid embarrassment, he went for a morning run after washing up and bought breakfast by the way.
When passing by Jiang Shuiying's room, he quietly stood at the door and listened for a while. He didn't hear any sound from inside and thought that Jiang Shuiying had not woken up yet.
Normally he would just run a few laps around the neighborhood in the morning, but today he ran ten laps on purpose. It was already bright outside when he finished running. He looked at his watch and it was already ten o'clock before he headed home.
But when he opened the door with breakfast, he saw a scene that he had never expected.
He saw Jiang Shuiying packing her things.
Luo Yuwen was a little flustered. He quickly threw his breakfast on the table and walked over to Jiang Shuiying.
"Jiang Shuiying, are you leaving?"
The previous agreement between the two was that after Yan Ying was executed, Luo Yuwen would help her move, and their "employment relationship" would only truly end after Jiang Shuiying settled down in her new home.
But the execution is still going through the approval process, so Jiang Shuiying has to stay here for at least a week.
Jiang Shuiying had already changed out of her pajamas and put on comfortable home clothes. Her hair was neatly combed and she was folding her pajamas and throwing them into the suitcase.
Hearing Luo Yuwen's question, Jiang Shuiying raised her head and responded with a smile:
"Oh, yes, my aunt just called me and said that everything has been sorted out and I can move back in."
She lowered her head and continued to tidy up, but she didn't stop talking.
"I shouldn't have troubled you for so long. I'm really sorry, Mr. Luo."
Luo Yuwen grabbed the door frame with his hands, feeling strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange.
Jiang Shuiying's smile was very official, and her words were also very official. Luo Yuwen couldn't find any mistakes. Moreover, Jiang Shuiying actually called him Mr. Luo, which made Luo Yuwen feel an indescribable feeling in his heart.
"...Are you in such a hurry?"
Jiang Shuiying buckled the box and pulled it up, with a distant smile on her face, and replied: "Well, I have disturbed you for too long, Mr. Luo. In fact, I should have left a long time ago."
Jiang Shuiying's voice clearly didn't change, but Luo Yuwen felt it was particularly cold and harsh.
Luo Yuwen reached out to help her carry the suitcase, but she dodged sideways, and Jiang Shuiying avoided his gaze.
"You don't have to help me with this, Mr. Luo. I still have a lot of luggage in your car, and those are the ones I really need your help with. I can carry this myself."
Luo Yuwen followed her, his voice becoming overwhelmed. "I, I bought you breakfast. Would you like to eat some first?"
Jiang Shuiying turned her back to him without even turning her head. "Thank you, Mr. Luo, but I'm not hungry. Let's go quickly."
"I don't want to waste any more of your time."
Luo Yuwen was at a loss, scratching his hair irritably, "You...I don't think you're wasting my time."
"Skipping breakfast is bad for your stomach, you should eat something..."
Jiang Shuiying couldn't persuade him, so she could only sit at the dining table and drink soy milk without any taste. Luo Yuwen sat beside her in silence. The two of them didn't say a word to each other from the moment Jiang Shuiying started eating until she finished.
Jiang Shuiying threw the leftover breakfast into the trash can, still with that businesslike expression on her face, and said:
"I'm done, can we go now?"
"you..."
Luo Yuwen was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.
Luo Yuwen saw it clearly when Jiang Shuiying was eating just now. She only drank two sips of soy milk. It was obvious that she wanted to leave here quickly.
The two of them were clearly having a big fight yesterday, but Jiang Shuiying became so distant in just one night. Luo Yuwen found it hard to accept for a while.
Is it because she is angry because I pushed her away?
She's really angry, how can I comfort her?!
Luo Yuwen scratched his head, wondering what to do, but was interrupted by Jiang Shuiying's sudden call.
Jiang Shuiying was also surprised. She took out her cell phone and saw that it was Aunt Zhang.
Aunt Zhang was hired by Jiang Shuiying a long time ago to take care of the house. Every time she finished her work, she would only send a message to Jiang Shuiying. Aunt Zhang would not call her unless it was urgent.
Jiang Shuiying began to feel uneasy, and Luo Yuwen beside her also frowned when he saw this.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Shuiying shook her head and picked up the phone. Aunt Zhang's anxious voice was heard on the line.
"Hey! Miss Jiang, are you free now? If you are free, please come back quickly!"
"It seems like there's a thief in your house!!!"
"What did you say?!"
"Wasn't everything fine last night?"
Aunt Zhang was very anxious on the phone and spoke incoherently, unable to explain what was going on. Jiang Shuiying only heard her say that her yard was in a mess, but the lock on the gate was intact.
Jiang Shuiying comforted Aunt Zhang and said that she would go back immediately and asked her to wait there for a while, then hung up the phone.
Jiang Shuiying didn't care about any plans now, she really had to go back quickly.
The house that Aunt Zhang helped her take care of was where she would live in the future. She had bought this house a long time ago, and only Aunt Zhang and she knew the address. Even Yan Ming in the past was completely unaware of this house.
But now Aunt Zhang said that a thief had broken in, and Jiang Shuiying began to feel inexplicably nervous.
Without further ado, Jiang Shuiying anxiously said to Luo Yuwen:
"Auntie said there's a thief in my house. I have to leave now, Mr. Luo."
"Please take me back."
Luo Yuwen was also very shocked after hearing it clearly. How could a thief break into his house? At the same time, he was also very troubled. It was the first time that he felt that the three words "Mr. Luo" were so offensive, especially when they came from Jiang Shuiying's mouth.
But he only thought about it for a while, then drove to the address given by Jiang Shuiying.
On the way, Jiang Shuiying became more and more uneasy and panicked. She sat in the passenger seat and thought about all the possibilities.
Could it be that Yan Ming has accomplices she's unaware of, and seeing her report him, he couldn't help but want to retaliate against her? Or perhaps Yan Ying has helpers in City A...
No matter what, it is not good for Jiang Shuiying herself at this time, and Luo Yuwen is also next to her. Jiang Shuiying really doesn't want to involve Luo Yuwen anymore.
Luo Yuwen wanted to comfort her, but while driving, he could only talk to her from time to time, telling her not to be so nervous and that he was always there for her.
After all, Luo Yuwen was a criminal policeman before, so he was more than capable of catching a thief.
But Jiang Shuiying only responded intermittently, and then she even stopped talking. Luo Yuwen could only shut up and drive carefully.
City A is right next door, and the highway is unobstructed on weekdays. The two arrived in City A in the afternoon.
Jiang Shuiying's house is in a neighborhood by the sea, just across the road from the beach. It is a three-story villa with a small yard and a small shop next to it.
While driving, Luo Yuwen deliberately looked around and found that most of the buildings in this block were like this. Many families opened a small shop next to their houses to make a living.
The villa was built on the land that Jiang Shuiying had bought years earlier, and then commissioned someone to build it. It was completed very early, and Jiang Shuiying has always hired an aunt to look after it. The decoration and maintenance are very good, and anyone can move in anytime if they want to.
Luo Yuwen parked the car, and after the two got out, they found Aunt Zhang, who looked frightened, at the door. Aunt Zhang saw them and came over.
"Oh Miss Jiang, you're finally here. Go inside and take a look!"
The outer wall of the villa's yard is very high, providing good privacy, and the gate is also a heavy anti-theft door. Jiang Shuiying carefully checked the gate and found nothing unusual. At this time, she became even more confused.
The wall is more than two meters high, there are surveillance cameras, and the door is not broken. How did the thief get in?
With doubts, Jiang Shuiying followed Aunt Zhang into the yard, and only then did she understand what the so-called thief was all about.
Jiang Shuiying had originally planned to plant flowers in the yard after moving in, so she designed small gardens in both the front and back yards, and bought flower stands and placed flower pots in advance. The yard path was paved with small stones, and shrubs and swings were planted in the corners, making the layout very warm.
But now, the flower pots on the trellis had all fallen over, and earthenware fragments mixed with mud were scattered all over the floor, staining the white walls. The once neatly trimmed shrubs were now pitted and dented by someone who had trampled on them. The swing was toppled over, and the once welcoming garden had become a mess and filth, more like a vandalism than a burglary.
"What's going on?!"
Jiang Shuiying was so angry that she had a headache when she saw the garden she had taken great pains to maintain was in such a mess. She strode to the door and carefully checked the doors and windows. She found no signs of prying, which made the three people present even more puzzled.
"Aunt Zhang, was there anything wrong here the last time you came?"
Aunt Zhang clasped her hands tightly against her chest, nervously clicking her fingers as she spoke:
"No, no, Miss Jiang, when I came yesterday, it was the same as before. And it suddenly started to blow at noon yesterday. I checked the flower pots and found that there was nothing wrong, so I left!"
"I don't know how this happened, that's why I called you back quickly!"
