"...Are you okay?" Looking at Jiang Chen walking towards him, Xia Shiyu bit her lip, not knowing what to say, and finally squeezed out this sentence.

"I have something to do, I've suffered a little injury." Jiang Chen pointed to the small hole on the side of his cheek with shamelessness. If Jiang Chen hadn't pointed it out, no one would have noticed such a small wound.

"I, I'll help you with it." Xia Shiyu lowered her head with some guilt. She never owe anyone favors, but now she owes this person so much.

"Here? Salva can kill sterilization." Jiang Chen blurted out almost subconsciously, which surprised him.

Huh? Why did I become so erotic?

"...I have alcohol and gauze in my room." Xia Shiyu faced Jiang Chen's teasing coldly.

"Don't look at me like this, after all, I'm your new creditor." Jiang Chen raised his hand with a smile and shook the IOU between his fingers, "Look. But I'm good at everything, but I'm a little too kind and I won't charge you any interest."

Will anyone be more narcissistic than this guy? Xia Shiyu looked at the proud Jiang Chen speechlessly. While speechless, she was also confused. This was the original ** who didn't even dare to meet her sight. Silk? What medicine did you take?

"I will pay you back together with the interest." Xia Shiyu lowered her head with gratitude and assured Jiang Chen with a positive tone, but immediately spoke with a little hesitant look, "According to the normal interest rate."

With the interest rate of usury, she is really not sure she can afford it.

Jiang Chen shrugged and said nothing. He knew the character of this strong woman very well, and once he knew what he knew, he would never change.

"That, Xia Shiyu."

"Hey!" After hearing the owner's greeting, Xia Shiyu quickly turned around and responded.

"This is your half-month salary... Although I'm sorry, I really can't afford to offend those people. Just be fine... You won't need to go to work tomorrow." The boss said with a difficult face, gritted his teeth, and said the very merciless words.

Almost a pleading tone.

After taking the envelope containing money, Xia Shiyu nodded blankly, looking at the closed flower shop, her eyes of dodging and suspicious... This place where she had been working for half a month, for some reason, she wanted to cry.

How many times is this today? This is the first time Xia Shiyu is so fragile.

"Has been fired?" Jiang Chen teased, watching his boss being fired again, why does it feel so good?

Xia Shiyu ignored Jiang Chen's teasing, just bit her lips and looked at him with a complicated expression, then turned around and walked towards the way home. Jiang Chen followed behind consciously, because Xia Shiyu had said that she would help him treat the wound.

Although the wounds are probably going to stop bleeding at this moment, the curiosity of trying to see what the former boss lives in still gains the upper hand. Anyway, it’s boring to be idle, right?

Hahaha, Jiang Chen laughed secretly. He felt that he was so bad. He was almost catching up with that girl Sun Jiao.

Stepping on the stairs with black moss, Jiang Chen frowned. He was really surprised that there was such an old house in Wanghai City. Moreover, the cracks in the wall didn't look like a place to live.

When Xia Shiyu took out the key and unscrewed the rusty iron door, Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This girl is really strong. If it were other girls, I'm afraid she would definitely not be able to bear it.

What's more, a girl who is so beautiful, put down her figure and acts like a spoiled person. I'm afraid that it's not a big problem if it's about 500,000 yuan.

Such a good face was completely ruined by his bad temper, haha.

Having personality, but having sex!

There was a faint musty smell at the door, but it was much better after entering the door. The smell of air freshener was obvious, and it could be seen that Xia Shiyu, the girl, sprayed a lot of this thing. This method of treating symptoms but not root causes had a hint of helplessness.

The house is very small, much smaller than the low-rent house in Jiang Chen. The living room and the kitchen are next to each other, and there is only a not-so-spacious bedroom. There is no TV in the living room, and there is only a wooden table that looks a bit old. The chairs are also very old-fashioned. Maybe you can make some money by selling them as antiques? Don’t mention things like sofas and coffee tables.

There is no ceiling fan on the roof, and there is naturally no air conditioner on the wall. There is only a fan with the power plug in is placed in the corner of the wall. The most valuable appliance here should be the stainless steel kettle. Is it brought from home when I was evading debt?

The laptop on the table should be her own, but there is obviously no wifi here. What's the use of having a computer?

Jiang Chen noticed two pairs of women's shoes neatly placed at the door. A woman only had two pairs of shoes, so it was unlikely that she could think of it. It seemed that she must have been hasty when she escaped here, and she didn't even bring a few pairs of shoes.

Although the environment is simple, it can be seen that it has been cleaned with care.

"Sorry, it's a bit simple. Just sit there." Xia Shiyu said stiffly. He brought a man he was not very familiar with to his home. This was the first time Xia Shiyu did this.

Even her ex-boyfriend always lets him stop in front of the door. Being alone with a man makes her feel uncomfortable all over. Perhaps it is this excess self-protection consciousness that makes her not even able to rely on when she is in trouble.

After saying that, Xia Shiyu turned around and walked into the small bedroom.

Jiang Chen casually pulled a stool and sat up carelessly, but he almost fell down.

His mother's stool legs are all lame... Jiang Chen cursed inwardly and changed to a stool to sit.

Soon, Xia Shiyu walked out with a small bottle of alcohol and a cotton swab.

"Where?" asked in a very mechanical manner, and both movements and expressions were very stiff.

"Here...you really want it..." Jiang Chen smiled bitterly. He actually just wanted to tease this former female boss, but he didn't expect that she actually took out a bottle of alcohol.

"I said I will help you with the wound." Xia Shiyu took a deep breath and leaned closer to Jiang Chen's face.

On the contrary, Jiang Chen felt a little embarrassed. He didn't know where to put his hands on both sides, as if he was moving back and forth, allowing the iceberg beauty in front of him to pinch a cotton swab dipped in alcohol and apply it to the "injured" position.

"Don't move." Xia Shiyu frowned slightly and glared at Jiang Chen, who was not very calm.

"Okay..." Jiang Chen smiled bitterly again.

It smells so fragrant, a fragrance of gardenia lingers on Jiang Chen's nose. There is no jewelry decoration on his fair neck. Jiang Chen vaguely remembers that there should be a necklace here. Because he leans forward, the cool summer neckline with materials reveals a faint ambiguous gully. Although it is probably only B, it is not enough to look at Sun Jiao's 36D, but the overall beauty is better than that of the willow waist that is held in full.

Both her figure and face are goddess-level, which is very embarrassing to say. Jiang Chen once fantasized about her wearing black and silk-like appearance... Cough cough.

The black hair I remembered was wrapped around the back of my head, but at this moment, the long black hair was tied into a ponytail with a refreshing effect, which made Jiang Chen feel a little dazed. Is this Xia Shiyu, dressed as a female college student who just left the campus, still the same capable and look like an urban white-collar worker?

"What are you looking at?" Xia Shiyu couldn't help but screamed, but her face still had a cold expression with a protective color.

"No, nothing." Jiang Chen touched his nose awkwardly.

The wound treatment has been completed, but the eyes of both of them are in line with each other.

Time seems to be still...

Very embarrassing...

"Okay, it smells so good. Haha..." Jiang Chen scratched his head with a far-fetched smile, breaking the silence.

Xia Shiyu was slightly stunned, a blush appeared on her cheeks, her cold expression was slightly loose, but her eyes soon became even colder.

"...It's the smell of gardenia. Maybe it's pollen when working." Xia Shiyu frowned and sniffed her cuffs. She spoke quickly, then quickly packed up the alcohol bottle and cotton swab, and hurried back to the bedroom.

Her heartbeats so fast... suppressed her ups and downs, Xia Shiyu stood by the bedside table and gasped slightly, looking at herself in the mirror with a complicated expression. She didn't know what was wrong with her, and she was so disobedient.

My heartbeats so fast... Jiang Chen touched his chest in surprise.

I shouldn't have fallen in love with this little girl... However, Jiang Chen quickly denied this idea and attributed it to the natural reaction of hormones.

Compared to the beauty with a cold face, he prefers Sun Jiao's beauty who is both lively, big breasts, sometimes domineering, sometimes little women... Of course, it would be great if he didn't be so domineering, cough cough.

Not long after, Xia Shiyu walked out of the bedroom, interrupting Jiang Chen's random thoughts. Xia Shiyu sat opposite Jiang Chen, but there was no dialogue between the two. Silence lingered between the two. The only thing that was uneasy was the sound of the clock moving, and the heartbeat that only each could hear.

"Thank you..." It was Xia Shiyu who took the lead in breaking the silence.

"No need to thank you, I just happened to pass by..." Jiang Chen lied. In fact, he had gone to her with bad intentions today, but after hearing the news that she had resigned, he left without any hesitation.

But speaking of this, he really didn't expect that this stubborn woman would actually express her gratitude to him.

"You," Xia Shiyu paused, bit her lower lip lightly, and after hesitating for a moment, she still asked her confusion, "Don't you hate me?"

This question was not beyond Jiang Chen's expectations. He was also asking himself this question: Do I still hate her?

"Hate." However, in the end, the words that had been weaving in my mind for a long time only turned into these two short words. Jiang Chen looked at Xia Shiyu with some complexity and opened his eyes.

Then why save me?

This sentence was not asked, but Jiang Chen was unexpectedly able to read the question blocked in her throat from her eyes.

Jiang Chen asked himself that he hated her, but she quit him, which made him almost wander on the streets, almost unable to even eat. He had never stingy with the most vicious curse and the most vulgar insults... However, all of these have passed.

Yes, many things are not a big deal after venting. Life still has to continue, and Jiang Chen is living a good life now, so the reason for hating her naturally does not exist.

"There are no more reasons," Jiang Chen sighed and shook his head. "To be honest, I'm gloating when I heard you were quit. You should have seen that this dress was bought in that clothing store. However... I suddenly realized that I was quite childish."

"Childish..." Xia Shiyu chewed this word in a low voice. She was confused about what Jiang Chen said, and her cold eyes were full of confusion.

If Jiang Chen humiliated her severely or even beat her, it would make her feel better. However, this man who was once almost pushed into a desperate situation by her, did nothing at this moment, but instead pulled her when she was killed.

Why...

"Even if I take revenge on you, can I get some compensation?" Jiang Chen shook his head, "To be honest, the pleasure of revenge is very good. But if I watch a beautiful woman being forced to redeem her debt by a gangster, and I have the ability to stop all this, I just stand aside and watch with gloating. The guilt after the pleasure is probably not small... Besides, it is my acquaintance, and there is no irreconcilable deep hatred between us. It's just a job... Even if I give that job back to me now, I'm afraid I won't look down on you."

Just a job, compared to what he lost, Jiang Chen asked himself that he had gained a lot. If he hadn't drunkenly because of losing his job, he wouldn't have passed the path drunk, and he wouldn't have obtained the leap bracelet that could bring him endless wealth...

It is a blessing to lose one's wife.

I have to say that fate is so magical.

"...I thought a lot after I was about to quit you," Xia Shiyu looked at Jiang Chen with a complicated expression, "Maybe, as the facts come true, I am not a qualified manager."

"Your abilities are worthy of recognition, but you don't understand people's hearts." Jiang Chen smiled.

"Human heart? Are you referring to psychology?"

"No, no, no, it's not the kind of thing that can be written in textbooks... No one can really figure it out even if he has been used for a lifetime..."

The two of them sat at the table to reminisce about the past like friends they had not seen for many days. Although there was no tea and no pleasing scenery, Jiang Chen, who sat here, did get the comfort that he had never received on this day.

Yes, it’s great to consume, and it’s great to have a big meal... but I’m still a little lonely.

In this overwhelming city, there is not even a friend who can have a long talk. Perhaps this is what Jiang Chen really longs for. After graduation, his buddy in the same dormitory went his separate ways. The class belle who had secretly loved went back to his hometown to get married. The counselor who had drunk wine together also began to deal with the new class, and everyone was like a clockwork.

This simple hut brought him a rare tranquility and satisfaction.

Perhaps, this is the reward of destiny for goodwill?
