Chapter 21 Scared

Hua Lai didn't pay attention to the person behind her at all. Jiang Heyu's sharp shout made her tremble in fright. The porridge bowl fell onto the marble cooking table and broke into pieces with a "clang".

She swallowed the porridge in her mouth and explained: "I...I'm afraid of wasting it..."

And when she came to the kitchen, she didn't find anything else to eat.

She could see that Jiang Heyu's eyes were full of anger. He must be angry that he had stolen something belonging to his grandfather without permission.

"Sorry, I won't eat it next time."

Jiang Heyu scolded: "Cen Yinyin! Don't the Jiang family have food for you? Are you going to make yourself look so pitiful?! Or do you have a masochistic tendency?!"

Hua Lai didn't understand, so she simply didn't explain or defend.

"come out!"

After Jiang Heyu finished speaking, he slid out first.

Hua Lai took a deep breath and followed.

Jiang He arrived at the restaurant and ordered Hua Lai behind him: "Sit down and eat!"

Hua Lai didn't understand, but she still sat down at the dining table silently, picked up her chopsticks and started to eat slowly.

The slightly cold food slowly entered his mouth, and no matter how carefully she chewed it, she still found it difficult to swallow.

She missed Qin Suzhi.

She missed Qin Suzhi so much. She wanted to throw herself into her mother's arms, hold her mother and release all her grievances with tears, just like she was bullied when she was a child.

She doesn't need her mother to help her, she just hopes to get a hug and a few words of comfort.

Hua Lai held back her tears. She must not cry in front of Jiang Heyu, otherwise he would not know what sarcastic words he would say.

Compared with the ravenous devouring in the kitchen just now, Hua Lai's current movements are too slow and leisurely. Jiang Heyu can't understand. She eats those coarse porridge and pickles so deliciously. Why does she seem to be missing this carefully prepared delicacy?

appetite?

Hua Lai was so frightened by him that she even knocked over her bowl. He realized a little bit that she seemed to be afraid of him.

He remembered the face that he had hugged while sleeping obediently before, and wanted to ease the atmosphere between the two of them, so he asked: "Eating so slowly? The food is not to your liking?"

It's just that he is used to making sarcastic remarks, so when these casual words come out of his mouth, they sound a bit accusatory.

Hua Lai immediately swallowed the last bite of food and stood up: "I'm done."

Jiang Heyu also choked: "I..."

He wanted to say that he didn't mean to rush, but in the end he didn't explain anything.

The fear on her face made him irritated and furious.

Is she really a scourge? Does she have to be so afraid of herself?

Seeing that Jiang Heyu didn't give any instructions, Hua Lai asked tentatively: "Do you want to go out for a walk...for a walk, or go back to the room?"

Jiang Heyu glanced at her: "Go back to your room."

Jiang Heyu sat at his desk again and read the report for a long time, but he couldn't concentrate.

There was no sound at all in the room. He turned around and found Hua Lai sitting on the edge of the balcony looking at her mobile phone.

Jiang Heyu said quietly: "Get out."

Hua Lai didn't know why: "Huh?"

Jiang Heyu said impatiently: "Get out."

Hua Lai left their room in silence.

Jiang Heyu heard the sound of the door closing, breathed a sigh of relief, and focused his attention on the report form again.

That woman is here, and she really can't concentrate on her work.

Hua Lai had nowhere to go, not even an inch of this huge Jiang house belonged to her.

She didn't want to stay in the hall to avoid running into Liang Hongying, so she slowly walked out to the garden, where she met Jiang Nisen.

Jiang Nisen was reading in the garden when he heard footsteps and looked over: "Sister-in-law."

Only then did Hua Lai discover him.

She walked towards Jiang Nisen: "I got the book, thank you."

Jiang Nisen: "You're welcome. Tell me what you need after reading."

Hua Lai wanted to say, no need, she would never borrow books from him again, because she couldn't protect herself and didn't want to have anything to do with him.

But she couldn't bear to hurt Jiang Nisen.

He is as poor a person as himself.

Hua Lai nodded: "Okay."

Jiang Nisen felt a little guilty: "What happened today...I've also heard about it. I'm sorry. Actually, I didn't know that my eldest brother was allergic to mangoes, so I brought mangoes back to eat. You were scolded for not telling me, and even...

...But I promise, brother is not a bad person! He must have been mad to treat you like that."

Hua Lai smiled and shook his head, but couldn't say anything.

When one person is mad, can another person lose his freedom to live?

Only in front of this person who was about the same age as him and had the same disease, she dared to say with a slight complaint: "I owe it to your family."

Who made it impossible for him to come up with money to save Qin Suzhi, and who made it possible for the Cen family to keep taking money from the Jiang family because of her.

Hualai: "Why didn't you go to school today?"

Today is not the weekend. There is no way the university will have no classes all day.

Jiang Nisen complained a little: "The school held a sports meeting and it was so boring that I came back."

Sports meeting, to Hua Lai, is an event that is far away and longed for. Every year at the school sports meeting, she will serve as a cheerleader for the class, cheering for the athletes in the class.

Her classmates would still sweat in various sports, but she could only endure it in this deep courtyard.

The moment she couldn't breathe freely today, she was really scared.

She no longer doubted that Jiang He would really kill her if he didn't like her.

She learned from Xiao Jing about the Jiang family's methods of fighting for power. When she heard it, she thought it was exaggerated. Today she almost became the protagonist, so she no longer had any doubts.

Her tenacity and stubbornness all came to nothing in the face of life and death.

She only has one wish now: to get rid of Jiang He and... as soon as possible.

Hua Lai didn't dare to talk to Jiang Nisen. She walked around the garden again before walking back slowly.

————

Xiaojing watched Hua Lai go out. She saw everything that happened in the room today clearly, which once again confirmed the rumors that Jiang He and Hua Lai disliked Hua Lai. Not long after Hua Lai left the room, she entered Jiang He

room with.

When Jiang Heyu heard the noise, he frowned slightly and said in a deep voice without raising his head: "Didn't I ask you to go out? What are you doing here?"

This sentence once again made Xiaojing think about it, and she felt that she had one more chance.

Xiaojing lowered her head and her voice sounded a little aggrieved: "Young Master, I'm here to get your clothes to wash."

Jiang Heyu didn't seem to be Huai Lai, but his brows furrowed deeper. He said "hmm" and continued to work hard.

Seeing that Jiang Heyu had no intention of talking to her, Xiaojing was a little unwilling and said boldly: "Young master, in fact, I really don't blame the young mistress for what happened today. Please don't embarrass her."

This pleading tone sounded sincere.

Jiang He and Guoran raised their heads and looked at her with inquiring eyes.

Xiaojing lowered her eyes and bit her lip, looking as if she had mustered up the courage to plead for Hua Lai.

Jiang Heyu: "You have a good relationship with her?"

Xiaojing: "My young lady is very kind to people."

Jiang Heyu: "She's very kind to people? She's only been here for two or three days, and she's always in front of me. Why didn't I see that she's very kind to people? She always seems to swallow her anger in front of me, but I don't know."

To think that she is so good at winning over people's hearts and that someone has come forward to intercede for her so quickly after committing such a big crime. It seems that, as her legal husband, I don't understand her as well as you."

Xiaojing originally just wanted to gain some goodwill in front of Jiang Heyu, but now it seems that she didn't win the goodwill, but instead made herself a mess.
