Back in the year when they first met, they were all still young.
But Wei Xiuyang clearly remembered how he sprinkled Coke all over the place the first time he saw Guan Xi.
Guan Xi came over, holding a high air at a young age, she said, so I have a younger cousin. And said, brother, why do I think you are a little stupid, you can't hold the Coke.
He never said that he didn't hold it firmly because he was stupid, but because he saw the person walking in at the door, and he was taken aback.
He was a few months younger than her, but the same age, so Guan Xi, who came back from abroad, entered his school and was in the same class as him.
The family arranged for the two of them to sit at the same table, saying that he was to take care of Guan Xi, who was unfamiliar with life.
But he found out on the first day that Guan Xi didn't need him to take care of him at all. Because she is so beautiful, the classmates around her want to get close to her and get to know her one after another... She just came here and has a large group of friends.
But he was still in a good position because they were at the same table and blood relatives.
So she is the best with him.
But since when did he have that unknown secret in his heart.
He didn't know it himself.
I just feel that I like to be with Guan Xi, to watch her stand up for herself, to watch her laugh, to watch her make trouble, and to watch her run wild with her teeth and claws.
During his student days, he often received love letters from many people, but he found that he always liked to compare those people with Guan Xi.
After the comparison, it's boring...
But at that time, he just vaguely felt that something was wrong with him, and he really found out that he was possessed, when he knew that Jiang Suizhou and Guan Xi had a marriage contract.
He madly hated Jiang Suizhou, and only felt that he was the most unworthy person in this world.
But he also had to admit that he was more jealous.
Jiang Suizhou didn't like Guan Xi, and his favorite person was with him, and it was just enough to make people think it was suitable.
But what else could he do other than disgust and hope that Guan Xi would stay away from Jiang Suizhou.
He can't do anything because of his secret taboos and shame.
All along, he has been well hidden. For Guan Xi, he just stands in the position of his friend and younger brother.
But what happened at the bar that night almost pulled out the things that were hidden in his heart.
Guan Xi is actually just an adopted daughter... That is to say, she is not his sister at all, and has nothing to do with him!
He couldn't restrain the urge in his heart. He calmed down at home all day yesterday and drank a lot by himself. He knew that he shouldn't be happy about this kind of thing, but he was helpless, but he still had such a shameful little happiness in his heart.
"How could I despise you." Wei Xiuyang whispered, "You know me for so long, so you miss me like that?"
Guan Xi calmed down and felt that it was unlikely. What kind of temperament Wei Xiuyang is, she has figured out over the years: "Then why do you care so much, I'm still Guan Xi and your sister."
Wei Xiuyang smiled bitterly: "Yes, you are still Guan Xi..."
Guan Xi leaned back on the back of the chair: "In short, you should know everything about it, although I don't know what will happen in the future, but I'm fine now, you don't have to worry about anything."
Wei Xiuyang looked up at her: "If you have any difficulties, tell me, and I can help you."
"What difficulties can there be at the moment."
Wei Xiuyang slowed down, suppressed the things in his heart, and said earnestly, "Guan Ying is her aunt's biological daughter after all. Now that she knows that you are not her own sister, we don't know what you will think. And after this incident broke out, Jiang Suizhou is definitely going to break up with you, then—"
"Who said he was going to break up with me." Guan Xi interrupted him.
Wei Xiuyang sank his eyes: "Jiang Suizhou's interests are more important than anyone else! If you lose your use value to him, of course he will choose to break up."
Guan Xi was dissatisfied: "Why do I lose my value? You seem to be talking about me as a poor and down-to-earth poor man."
"What I mean is that Jiang Suizhou won't take this risk. You don't have much affection between you."
Guan Xi glared at Wei Xiuyang and subconsciously wanted to refute.
It was obvious that she thought of Jiang Suizhou the same way when she first learned about her own background, but when she heard it from someone else's mouth at this moment, her first thought was: No.
Between them, it is not so easy to break.
"That's between us too, it's not the point now."
"Why isn't it the point?"
"If I say no, it's no, okay, I won't talk about this today." Guan Xi was a little annoyed, "Eat first."
Wei Xiuyang was all discouraged: "Guan Xi..."
Guan Xi ignored him and said to himself, "I want to order another salad, I want something light today."
…
A meal was tasteless and tasteless. Guan Xi knew that Wei Xiuyang's attitude towards Jiang Suizhou had always been this way, and she didn't want to hear it, so she didn't say anything more.
After eating, she didn't stop much and drove home directly.
**
In the next few days, Guan Xi went to two o'clock and one line, wandering around the company and at home.
Three nights later, Guan Xi received a call from Lang Ningyi.
"What's wrong?"
Lang Ningyi: "Where are you, why didn't I see you."
Guan Xi was lying on the rocking chair in the room watching the video, when he heard the words, he was stunned for a moment: "At home, where are you going to see me."
"What? Today is not the Li family's jewelry banquet... "
Lang Ningyi stopped before she finished speaking, because she realized something.
Guan Xi too, she remembered when she heard the Li family jewelry banquet.
I remember that last month, Li Xinran, the eldest lady of the Li family, mentioned to her that there was a banquet this month, and she hoped that she would definitely attend. Although she wasn't thinking about it at the time, she still responded.
Guan Xi has always been a sought-after figure in the circle of the imperial capital, and a banquet she doesn't go to is not a celebrity banquet. So before every banquet, the organizer would definitely send a post invitation solemnly, but this time, she was ignored directly.
Lang Ningyi got angry: "What's the situation, does this mean I didn't call you?"
Guan Xi paused the video and did not speak.
Lang Ningyi said again, "Xixi, I saw Guan Ying at the scene."
Guan Xi: "… "
"Damn, this Li Xinran is really not a good thing. She used to flatter you a lot, but now that the wind changes, she immediately goes to Wei Zihan's side. She even invited Guan Ying and didn't invite you, slap you in the face? What do you mean? she-"
Guan Xi had expected this kind of thing, she took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, I'm not uncommon to go to her place."
Lang Ningyi: "Me too! I'm not uncommon! I'll go home now!"
"Then you don't have to be so impulsive."
"No, I have to go, otherwise you are in such a miserable situation now that you are exactly the same as the unlucky female partner!"
"… "
Guan Xi is easy to become a topic of others on weekdays, and many like her, but those who are jealous of her and hate her can circle the moat several times.
Born with a crown, fair complexion and beautiful, and a handsome and rich fiancé, it is impossible to say that no one is jealous.
Now that the crown is gone, there are naturally many people who squeeze out cold words.
In the past few days, the rumors about "Guan Xi will definitely fall into the cloud after Guan Ying returns" have been spreading wanton. There is also Jiang Suizhou. Everyone knows the relationship between the two people. It is a plastic couple relationship of "taking the kidneys but not the heart, talking about money but not love". Everyone thinks that Jiang Suizhou knows about this. scattered.
Even if Guan Xi didn't go out, he could guess how much these remarks were made. Now that she deliberately didn't invite her at the banquet, she was just rubbing her face against the ground.
However, she found that she was a little calmer than she had imagined, and it was estimated that she had expected this phenomenon earlier and was mentally prepared.
She thought... This is what is often said in TV dramas, the world is hot and cold.
**
At noon on the second day, Jiang Suizhou returned from a business trip. After getting off the plane, Zhou Hao drove him back to Jialin Jingyuan.
"How's the investigation on Guan Xi's side?" Jiang Suizhou asked in the car.
Zhou Hao: "Very clean."
Jiang Suizhou frowned.
Zhou Hao said: "Miss Guan's parents are unknown. She was indeed abandoned in that orphanage back then. After Guan Xinghao took Miss Guan away, he gave the orphanage a large amount of hush money to keep this matter from outsiders. As for the previous party The people behind the dissemination did it very neatly, leaving no trace."
Jiang Suizhou looked out the window: "It seems that Wei Zihan will not do this alone."
"Yes, there must be someone behind her to help her."
…
Forty minutes later, Jiang Suizhou returned home.
"Mr. Jiang, the luggage is all put away."
After Zhou Hao finished packing, he saw Jiang Suizhou standing by the floor-to-ceiling window on the phone. When he finished saying this, Jiang Suizhou raised his hand and motioned him to wait a moment.
Zhou Hao didn't dare to disturb and waited in the same place.
But his call didn't seem to get through. After a minute, he turned around and said, "You give Yang Qing a call."
Yang Qing is Guan Xi's assistant, and Zhou Hao often needs to contact her.
"Okay, Mr. Jiang, I want to ask her where Miss Guan is." Zhou Hao, as expected of someone who has followed Jiang Suizhou for so many years, can easily guess.
Jiang Suizhou: "Well."
Zhou Hao immediately called Yang Qing.
After asking, he hung up the phone and said to Jiang Suizhou, "Yang Zhu said that Miss Guan went to the Crocodile Center tourist attraction two hours ago."
Jiang Suizhou was stunned for a moment. He remembered what he told her before he left. He came back today and asked her to wait for him at home. This person went so far away and turned off the phone.
"Go over there." Jiang Suizhou said solemnly.
"Yes."
Jiang Suizhou knew for a long time that Guan Xi likes to keep some strange animals, but he has never seen it before, and this is the first time he has come to such a place.
When he was led in by the staff, he saw a woman sitting on the steps from a distance.
This place is lush with foliage, and the sun is not very bright, but the people sitting on the steps still wore sunglasses and held up umbrellas.
Jiang Suizhou has also heard a lot of rumors in the mouths of other people in the past two days, and many people even want to talk directly from his mouth. He's already like this, so this Miss Guan must be even worse these days.
When he knew she was here just now, he expected that she might be hiding in such a place to heal.
but…
At this time, there are two rows of delicate food on the side of the salted fish pass, with headphones dangling with their calves, more like coming to the countryside for a picnic.
It seems he is thinking too much
The song in Guan Xi's ears was on fire, and when he reached out to get something to eat, he suddenly found that there were two extra long legs on the next step.
But she just said not to let the staff come in to disturb her.
Guan Xi lifted the umbrella in dissatisfaction, and was about to get angry when he suddenly found that the two long-legged masters had an extraordinary face.
"… why you."
After Guan Xi took the umbrella away, Jiang Suizhou looked at her. Today, she was wearing a green, dark green jumpsuit, a dark green bag, and even the brackets of her glasses were green.
Jiang Suizhou walked down and sat down beside her: "What are you wearing today... are you playing a green onion?"
"… "
"There's no sun, so wear some sunglasses." Jiang Suizhou picked it up.
Guan Xi was unprepared, and the glasses were taken off at once. She turned to look at him in astonishment, "You pay me back!"
Her eyes were all red.
Jiang Suizhou snorted in his heart and let go.
"I'm a parent-child outfit, what do you know?" Guan Xi quickly put on his glasses again.
Jiang Suizhou looked at her sideways, she pretended to be light, as if she was here for a picnic on vacation.
Guan Xi ignored his eyes and pointed to the crocodile lying on the stone platform in the distance: "Zhouzhou! A strange uncle is here, turn around and show your mother!"
Jiang Suizhou: "..."
The animal didn't respond.
Guan Xi was not embarrassed at all, and turned to him and said, "He is more introverted, but his brother Jiang Jiang is more cheerful. But he is in the water now and can't see."
Jiang Suizhou looked in that direction cooperatively: "Oh."
Guan Xi was afraid of ultraviolet rays, so he propped up the umbrella again: "Tell me, what are you doing here to find me?"
Jiang Suizhou: "I didn't say before my business trip that I would be waiting for me at home today."
Guan Xi paused: "...I forgot."
"Now that I remember, can I go?"
Guan Xi propped his chin and said lazily, "I'm not in the mood."
"Being bullied so bad?"
Guan Xi glared at him, and the thorns all over his body stood up all of a sudden: "You better shut up now."
Jiang Suizhou lightly pursed his lower lip, clasped her wrist and pulled her up: "Okay, I'm back, and everyone who should be shut up will shut up."
"What, are you going to pay the seal fee?"
"That's a waste of money." Jiang Suizhou said lightly: "It's better to let them sew their mouths."
