Chapter 21: Chapter 21

Jiang Lin reacted first. She winked at Aunt Wu, who was picking up crab meat for Tong Junhao, and asked her to quickly lead Tong Junhao away, while hurriedly stopping between Tong Tingkai and Tong Zhenni: "Nini, you have something to say to your father."
"Go away!" Tong Zhenni pushed away Jiang Lin irritably, rushed to the table and pointed to Tong Tingkai's nose: "Are you doing personnel affairs? I am your daughter! You are looking for a chicken to seduce your daughter's boyfriend!? "
"..."
There was a strange silence in the room.
Lu Xingxue lowered her head to take off the crab peeling gloves, Jiang Ci's gaze passed over her and fell on Jiang Lin. Jiang Lin was pushed back by Tong Zhenni. After hearing these words, she turned to Tong Tingkai in shock. Seeing her demeanor, she obviously didn't know beforehand.
"Asshole thing!" Tong Tingkai patted the table heavily: "You have been eating mine since you were a kid. Now that your wings are not hard, you dare to yell at me?"
Tong Tingkai became accustomed to the majesty at home, and his eyes stared. Tong Junhao, who was unable to pull away at Aunt Wu, immediately greased the soles of his feet, slipping faster than a rabbit. And Tong Zhenni was yelled by him, and she shrank her shoulders reflexively, and immediately raised her chin, and shouted at him with great momentum: "Am I wronged you?"
Tong Tingkai's face was green: "For good or bad, looking for such a thing, you still keep saying'boyfriend', you are not ashamed, I'm still ashamed!"
Tong Zhenni screamed: "Whoever I want to be a boyfriend is my freedom! What qualifications do you have to destroy my love with such disgusting means!!!"
Tong Tingkai said impatiently: "Go and reflect for yourself, I will let you see the reality clearly, whether it is for your benefit or is it harming you!"
"You are for yourself! Do you want me to be like Jiang Ci, sell to which company, and give you resources to facilitate you, you will not be ashamed?" Tong Zhenni's eyes turned: "Jiang Ci! You don't quite have it. Do you think? When you tuned the piano, you were able to face your mother. How come you got married and was at the mercy of others? Ha, yes, who made the deer family rich and powerful! You are your mother Raised, blue is better than blue!"
"..." Jiang Ci didn't expect Tong Zhenni's anger to burn on him.
Lu Xingxue frowned. Tong Tingkai was paying attention to her reaction. Seeing this, she subconsciously yelled at Tong Zhenni: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Tong Zhenni simply keeps doing nothing and repeating: "Where did I say wrong!?-Miss Lu! Our family is just looking at your money and your status. Otherwise, a cat or a dog will come to the door and talk to Jiang Ci There is a marriage contract, do you think they will agree? Will they treat you as delicious and delicious as today?"
In front of Lu Xingxue, Tong Zhenni was so unobstructed, Tong Tingkai really had the heart to kill her, and immediately slapped her!
"Snapped--"
This slap was so powerful that Tong Zhenni was slapped back half a step, and a few clear palm prints immediately appeared on her white cheeks. She covered her face, froze in disbelief, and then screamed out: "You hit me! You hit me! Everyone in your house bullied me—my mother was forced to death by you, so you were trying to force me too. Are you satisfied until you die!?"
"I think you are crazy!" Seeing that she was not constrained, but also moved out of her deceased mother, Tong Tingkai was so angry that she raised her hand again. At this time, Jiang Lin jumped up and hugged his arm: "All in anger, you have hit her now. , Isn’t it still you that hurt afterwards?"
Tong Tingkai gasped and said: "Listen, is this little beast speaking human words!?"
Jiang Lin was also irritated by Tong Zhenni, but she was used to getting acquainted with Tong Tingkai, so she gritted her teeth and stopped him to persuade him: "Nini is all angry. You are getting older, so what do you care about with a child?"
She said to Tong Zhenni again: "You don't want to say a few words, admit a mistake to your father, no matter what your father did, you should not talk to him like this."
Tong Zhenni never put Jiang Lin in her eyes. At this time, she ignored her and shouted at Tong Tingkai: "If you have the ability, you will kill me today!"
Tong Tingkai was furious: "I'm going to clean up you today, I'm sorry that you pretended to be crazy for so many people!"
...
These three people are pushing and pulling, making it messy like a farce.
Jiang Ci's hands and feet are cold, and it doesn't matter what she usually does, but Lu Xingxue is here, and all this happens in front of her...
As if going back to the thundery rainy day when I was young, I was scolded and beaten in fear, and the glamorous appearance was torn clean, revealing the dirty inside.
Tong Zhenni is right. It is true that her parents agreed with this marriage contract because of Lu Xingxue's prominent background. They were not married enough, and eagerly hoped that she would give birth to the Lu family.
They were so polite to Lu Xingxue that they were almost flattering, and Jiang Lin even told her to manage her relationship with Lu Xingxue...
She thought that she and Lu Xingxue were equal, and started this marriage because they each got what they needed, but others took it for granted that she had climbed Lu Xingxue high.
...
Lu Xingxue stood up, and the heavy chair rubbed the floor with a dull sound. The three people who were pulling together heard the movement and stopped their movements at the same time.
Lu Xingxue: "I have other arrangements with Jiang Ci, so we will leave first."
"You have to leave beforehand" is just a sentence, and everyone knows it well. Tong Tingkai held up his shameless old face: "It's because I usually do not teach strictly, Xiao Bai, let you watch the joke.-You go slowly, I won't give it away."
Lu Xingxue lowered her eyelids to look at Jiang Ci, who sat silently.
Lu Xingxue paused, pulled her wrist, and said slowly, "Let's go."
Jiang Lin hurriedly chased: "...Xiaobai, your dad is not in a good mood these days, so he just got caught by Nini. You see everyone happily eats...Don't mind, Nini He is also young and vigorous and not sensible enough.
Tong Zhenni snorted and wanted to express her opinion. Tong Tingkai stopped in time: "You are not crazy enough yet!?"
Lu Xingxue nodded to Jiang Lin and left with Jiang Ci.
—
The traffic was woven on the street, Jiang Ci headed against the back of the chair, looking out the window in a daze. In the car was quiet for a long time, Lu Xingxue broke the silence: "I think you didn't eat much just now, do you want to find a restaurant?... I remember that Lin Ji is not far from here."
Jiang Ci was a little weak, and Tong Zhenni's words made her feel humble and unable to lift her head when facing Lu Xingxue. She slowly looked at Lu Xingxue's delicate profile: "I'm not hungry."
Lu Xingxue: "Then what to drink?"
She asked very patiently, even if Jiang Ci refused again, she would definitely continue with the third proposal.
Jiang Ci saw it, but didn't understand why Lu Xingxue was so persistent. She stared at the front blankly, not wanting to be bothered by each other, and could only compromise: "Whatever."
When the car slid into the auxiliary street, Lu Xingxue found a space and stopped. She unfastened the safety clasp, looked at Jiang Ci, and said, "Wait for me for a while."
Jiang Ci got stuck in the seat, looking through the car window, following Lu Xingxue across the street, watching her push the door of a tea shop along the street.
Lu Xingxue let a pair of mother and daughter pass through the door first, and when someone left, she stepped in. The moment the glass door closed automatically, she looked back in the direction of the parking lot.
It's impossible to see what's in the car from the outside, not to mention that Jiang Ci couldn't help but turn his head to avoid this line of sight after such a long distance. She unconsciously dialed the phone with the black screen, and she didn't know how long it was before someone tapped the window glass on her side. Jiang Ci raised his eyes, Lu Xingxue was standing by the car, holding two cups of hot drinks, her lips smiling charmingly: "There is a park ahead, Jiang Ci, get out of the car and walk."
The man-made park is surrounded by residential areas. After 8 o'clock in the evening, people who come here for night jogging and walks abound, and it is very lively.
The night breeze was slightly cold, Jiang Ci took a sip of the drink in the cup, and Lu Xingxue bought her hot cocoa.
Jiang Ci stared at Lu Xingxue quietly, the liquid in his mouth was not very sweet, warm, and dripped properly into his stomach along his throat.
The two walked silently along the park for most of the time. Later Lu Xingxue pointed to a long wooden chair: "Let's sit down and talk."
Those who should have come will always come, Tong Zhenni is making a lot of trouble, Lu Xingxue can't be without thoughts. She took the initiative to mention that it was better than bite the bullet to start, so Jiang Ci nodded: "Um, let's talk."
They sat down side by side, and no one spoke first.
A couple from a distance walked over and didn’t know what the boy said. The girl patted him tenderly. The two of them pulled away three or four meters away from the wooden bench, and the boy pulled the girl away as if no one was there. Into the arms.
Boy: "Stop making trouble."
Girl: "Who is making trouble!?"
Boy: "Kiss you again."
The girl stomped: "Are you unreasonable?"
The boy kissed him directly.
Jiang Ci: "..."
Lu Xingxue: "..."
Jiang Ci drank the hot cocoa and turned to look away.
Lu Xingxue laughed silently.
The little couple’s kiss lasted for a minute or two before they separated and continued to move forward.
Jiang Ci put down his drink and held a chair to watch Lu Xingxue, and Lu Xingxue came over.
"I..." the two said in unison.
Lu Xingxue did not let Jiang Ci: "Let me go first."
Jiang Ci: "Good."
Lu Xingxue had a sincere look and said: "Jiang Ci, in fact, I am very grateful to you. Grandpa will do what he says in his life, so the regret that he didn't practice the marriage contract in the past has been pressed in his heart, and even depressed, and his body is getting worse .. You can agree to this marriage, it is really a surprise for me and for the Lu family.... Frankly speaking, I regard this marriage as a wonderful fate and a wonderful gift between us. I cherish it very much. I know who you are for three years. I don’t need to listen to other people’s evaluations. I don’t take what Tong Zhenni said to heart. I hope you don’t mind either.

No one asked Jiang Cijie whether he minded, except Lu Xingxue. In the eyes of her family, things such as "dignity" that were unnecessary for her were picked up from the mud by Lu Xingxue.
Sourness surged to the tip of his nose, Jiang Ci held back the tears in his eyes, nodded hard, and squeezed a word from his throat in response: "Yeah."
The yellow and soft light of the street lamp is like pouring golden quicksand, overflowing with deer and snow. Facing the light, her pupils turned into an amber brown. These crystal-clear eyes looked at Jiang Ci: "If you are still unhappy because of this, then it must be because I didn't do well enough and didn't give you enough sense of security. You can blame me."
Jiang Ci covered his eyes and made a decisive decision: "Don't look at me."
"..." Lu Xingxue said in cooperation: "I didn't watch it."
Warm tears wet his fingers, winding down the back of his hand, Jiang Ci raised his head blindfolded, no matter how badly the reason was said: "I just...just the wind blows sand in my eyes."
Lu Xingxue didn't break through her. After a while, she said softly: "Jiang Ci, look across."
Jiang Ci gradually calmed down. She moved her hands away, tears wet her eyelashes, and her tears were hazy, she saw the lights in the tall residential building opposite the park. There were occasional figures walking around the window, coaxing children, hanging clothes...
Every lamp is a home.
On the way home, Jiang Ci got stuck in the seat again, and couldn't accept that he would be so gaffe in front of Lu Xingxue.
Fortunately, Lu Xingxue did not mention a word, and fully took care of the feelings of the embarrassing patient.
After half an hour, the two got out of the car, Lu Xingxue took a transparent bag from the trunk and went home.
The words "XX Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall" are printed on the bag, and the bag contains a dark brown liquid, which looks like a Chinese medicine.
Jiang Ci finally found a topic to ease the embarrassment and adjust the atmosphere. She asked Lu Xingxue: "Are you uncomfortable?"
"Don't you want to know why I showed up with my mother?" Lu Xingxue looked at the bag in her hand, "She asked me to go to the hospital today, and asked the Chinese medicine doctor to prescribe medicine for my pulse, saying it was to regulate the body."
Jiang Ci suddenly had a bad feeling.
Lu Xingxue: "You told her that we divided the rooms because of my nervous breakdown and sleep disorders?"
Jiang Ci: "..."
We really shouldn’t underestimate Ms. Jiang Lin’s ability to act. Jiang Ci took the medicine packet from Lu Xingxue's hand, helpless and embarrassed: "I was in a hurry, so I lied to her,...I will pour them down."
Lu Xingxue followed her, the corners of her lips bend silently, and ripples in her eyes spread: "Mom has an appointment with the Chinese medicine practitioner, and she will have a follow-up consultation in five days. She cares a lot about me and is very anxious about this condition. We Isn't it too bad to lie to her like this..."
The latter sentence was automatically muted in Jiang Ci's ears, and she extracted the key words.
Anxious about this condition? What's the impatient? Anxious Lu Xingxue's illness won't get better, they can't sleep in the same room?
Jiang Ci: "..."
What is this ghost topic that eases embarrassment and adjusts the atmosphere?
