Chapter 19 After the Autumn Settlement
Zhao Tianyu was still as thrilling as ever before. When Jiang Xiao arrived at his doorstep, her camouflage wrangler had already parked on the side of the road.
Zhao Tianyu was wearing a red windbreaker, her neat black hair was gently blowing in the breeze, and her sharp eyes were on Jiang Xiao who was getting out of the car, holding a cigarette in his mouth and gently playing with Yi Du Peng lighter with her right hand. No matter by any standard, she was an absolute beauty.
But Jiang Xiao never called her, even when she saw her for the first time.
Because this woman's personality has been revealed on her face without any concealment. Jiang Xiao really can't stand her personality.
However, Zhao Tianyu is definitely an almost perfect agent.
Seeing Jiang Xiao parked his car into the garage and got out of the car and walked towards him, Zhao Tianyu didn't speak, but just raised his chin and said hello. Then, without even waiting for Jiang Xiao to approach, he turned his head to walk towards the door, reached out and locked the fingerprint of the door, opened the door and walked in.
Jiang Xiao followed Zhao Tianyu, smiling bitterly as the woman treated this place as her home. She walked straight to the wine cabinet and poured herself a glass of water of life without adding ice. She swallowed a big mouthful before sitting on the sofa.
Although the water of life vodka is not a good wine, its alcohol content of up to 96% has earned it the strongest reputation in the world. This kind of wine has always been used to mix cocktails in bars, and almost no one will choose to drink it directly, let alone a big mouthful like Zhao Tianyu, like drinking beer.
Jiang Xiao prepared this kind of wine at home just to prepare it for Zhao Tianyu alone.
"You... won't drive away later?" Jiang Xiao walked in with a wry smile, poured himself a glass of soda, and sat opposite Zhao Tianyu. He knew that Zhao Tianyu must be very angry now.
Zhao Tianyu did not answer, but just glanced at Jiang Xiao: "Do you know, how many phone calls and text messages have I sent you in the past three days?"
"I know. 143 phone calls, 35 text messages." Jiang Xiao nodded honestly and replied. After just buying a new phone and plugging in the new card, countless missed calls and text messages were flocking to him. But he knew Zhao Tianyu's temper, so he did not take the initiative to go back.
"Since you know, why don't you call me on your own initiative?" Zhao Tianyu raised her head and swallowed a big gulp of wine. After these two gulps, the wine glass was already seen. She shook the empty glass in her hand: "Wine. jar."
Jiang Xiao sighed, stood up again, went to the wine cabinet to bring the bottle of life water, placed it in front of Zhao Tianyu, and found her a clean ashtray: "Because I don't want to be scolded, and I don't want to see your bad face."
"Do you think if you don't call me on your own initiative, you won't be scolded or look at my bad face?" Zhao Tianyu snorted coldly and lit a cigarette again: "Unless you die, or I die."
"I... I almost died this time, I'm not kidding." Jiang Xiao shook his head and said with a wry smile: "So, for my life, I'll forgive me this time."
"Almost died? Not kidding?" Zhao Tianyu frowned in a beautiful arc: "What's going on?"
"It's not easy to explain in detail. In short, it's not something you can help with. And now, it's solved." Jiang Xiao smiled: "Anyway, the matter has passed, so I won't talk about it. I promise that such a thing will not happen again."
"I hope." Zhao Tianyu nodded and poured himself a full of wine again: "But you have to make up for these three days of work."
"I... am really tired... can't I let me take a day or two?" Jiang Xiao smiled bitterly: "Now you don't lack money, and I don't lack money, why do you have to work so hard?"
"Don't be stupid." Zhao Tianyu said coldly: "Do you think your money comes easily? You can receive so many announcements and performances now because of your popularity. Popularity comes from enough exposure. Do you think that no matter how long you rest, you can still have so many audiences when you reappear? Moreover, the announcements are already received before. Do you know how much the price of breaking the contract is?"
"Of course I understand the truth. But just one or two days can't do it? Tianyu, you should know that I am not the kind of young man who is so spoiled that he cried and called me for nothing. This time, I did experience some life and death juncture. I should pay for the money and apologize. You should deal with it with me with my own right." Jiang Xiao sat closer to Zhao Tianyu, looked directly at her, and looked at her sincerely: "Two days, only two days, let me have a good rest. Don't bother me no matter what, can you?"
Zhao Tianyu looked at Jiang Xiao’s sincere gaze, and the sharp breath on his original body finally relaxed a little. After a while, he whispered: “You…you…you don’t want to tell me what happened, right?”
"Yes." Jiang Xiao nodded without hesitation: "And, I have told you enough. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even explain a word."
"Okay." Zhao Tianyu nodded simply: "Then it will be two days. I will cancel the performances in these two days for you, and I will bear all the responsibility. Of course - you will pay the penalty."
"Of course." Jiang Xiao nodded, picked up the tonic water in his hand, gently touched the wine glass in Zhao Tianyu's hand, and said seriously: "Thank you."
Zhao Tianyu waved his hand, and didn't say much, but picked up the wine glass and took another big sip.
Jiang Xiao looked at Zhao Tianyu in front of him, and a hint of emotion suddenly arose in his heart.
He knew very well how much trouble he had suddenly disappeared for three days and how enthusiastic the anger in Zhao Tianyu would have caused Zhao Tianyu.
But Zhao Tianyu finally forgave him.
Zhao Tianyu gave herself a big sip of wine, then wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, and glanced at Jiang Xiao: "Why are you looking at me directly? Haven't you said it a long time ago and you are not interested in me?"
"If you don't have any interest, you can't see you? Besides, even if I suddenly become interested in you, it's useless. You are not interested in me either, and I have known this a long time ago." Jiang Xiao smiled faintly, but his heart moved slightly.
Zhao Tianyu...the feeling in his heart seemed to have suddenly changed.
But the change was so strange.
Jiang Xiao's eyes were circling all over Zhao Tianyu. The person in front of him was still the one he was familiar with, Zhao Tianyu, who had worked with him for two and a half years. The first time he saw her was the dress in front of her, this aura exuded a sharp light in her beauty, like a sharp knife.
Jiang Xiao repeatedly confirmed it in his heart many times before he confirmed it that he was still not attracted by Zhao Tianyu. She is a good agent, a good friend, and a very beautiful woman, but after all, it is not the object that Jiang Xiao wants to have close contact.
But...Why does Zhao Tianyu today bring Jiang Xiao a completely different feeling than before?
"You... are in love?" Jiang Xiao suddenly asked without thinking, but Zhao Tianyu was choked in his throat by a sip of wine and started coughing violently.
Jiang Xiao quickly took out a few tissues from the table and handed them to Zhao Tianyu's hand. He saw her bent down and coughing heavily, and finally he relieved a little.
Zhao Tianyu wiped the tears that were choked from the corners of her eyes with a tissue, and glared at Jiang Xiao fiercely: "You bastard... almost choked me to death. Which of your eyes look like you are in love!!"
"I just asked, who knows you have such a big reaction?" Jiang Xiao shrugged innocently.
"Then you ask me a little bit!" Zhao Tianyu finally got rid of her embarrassed look and stared at Jiang Xiao.
"No, it's just..." Jiang Xiao frowned and tried hard to speak: "I just think... you are different from before... The feeling that I give me is different."
"It's even more beautiful?" Zhao Tianyu raised her eyebrows and looked at Jiang Xiao with some jokes: "So... after so many years, you have been moved by me? But, it's a pity. Sister, I'm not only not interested in you, but also in other men and women. I won't play the trick of falling in love like a child a few hundred years ago. So you, there's no chance."
"Don't talk nonsense, it's impossible." Jiang Xiao waved his hand with a wry smile: "It's not that feeling...but..."
He lowered his head, thought for a long time before he raised his head, and met Zhao Tianyu's interesting gaze: "It's not the feeling between men and women, but... something more special. It makes me feel... in my eyes, you are different from others."
"Oh? What's it?" Zhao Tianyu looked at Jiang Xiao's eyes with bright eyes.
"I can't explain it." Jiang Xiao pondered for a while, but could only shake his head: "I feel that this kind of thing is too illusory. Forget it, don't think about it."
"Okay." Zhao Tianyu shrugged and stopped asking more questions. She was a free and easy person and would not bother with anything: "Then let me tell me when you figure it out one day."
"Okay. If I don't say that much, I really have to go to sleep for a while. I haven't had a good sleep for the past few days." Jiang Xiao breathed a long sigh and stood up: "If you still want to drink, take it yourself. Anyway, I'm afraid you know more about where my house is."
"Okay. Go to bed." Zhao Tianyu and Jiang Xiao had never been polite before, and waved their hands casually: "I'll leave after drinking. I'll call you again in two days."
Jiang Xiao ignored Zhao Tianyu behind him, walked up the stairs, closed the bedroom door, plunged into the quilt, and fell asleep with his head covering.
Just when Jiang Xiao was confused in the Hei Tian Village, he vaguely heard someone calling his name in his ear. He was so drowsy that he didn't want to pay attention to it. He just forced himself to continue sleeping, hoping that the sound would disappear by itself. But after enduring it for a long time, the sound not only did not disappear, but became louder and louder.
"who!"
Jiang Xiao finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he sat up and opened his sleepy eyes, but as soon as he opened his eyes, the surrounding environment shocked him.
Jiang Xiao was still on his bed, but everything around him except that bed had disappeared. His bedroom, his house, his community, and even the earth under his feet...
There is only one bed, suspended in the endless void.
There was also a tall woman standing beside his bed, her narrow phoenix eyes flashing with a fascinating light.
Purple smoke!
