Su Jia stuffed the small box she received from the clerk into the bottom layer of the rucksack, fearing that any corner would be exposed, and walked out of the drugstore with a flushed face.
She galloped all the way back to school to check the time. It was only half past three. She planned to go to the library to stay until dinner. A message was sent on her mobile phone that the courier was waiting to be picked up.
Su Jia feels strange, she hasn't bought anything recently, why? Is there a delivery message
Will? No? Is it a mistake
It is also possible that Ji Xuanyi quietly bought her something.
Su Jia went to the library along the road under her feet, and happened to pass by the Cainiao Post Station, so she picked up the documents by the way.
Was it really for her? The package was sent from a courier station in Beicheng. It was rectangular, palm-sized, and extremely light.
Su Jia opened it suspiciously, and inside was a photo that she would never have guessed.
The angle of the candid shot from the side happened to frame a man and a woman.
Among them, the "female" person? Eyes are swollen, as if she has seen it somewhere, but the side face is cold and the brows are deep? The "man" is so familiar to Su Jia.
It's Ji Xuanyi.
They sat facing each other and looked at each other. The woman? The woman? Smiling Yan Yan, the man? Looking at her for a moment, plus the ambiguous style and atmospheric oblique light created by the coffee shop in the background , It makes the two people look like a couple on a date.
Su Jia frowned, and the mobile phone in the other hand turned into a caller ID, a string of unfamiliar Beicheng numbers.
But Su Jia looked directly at the weird package, and had some guesses about the phone call.
She pressed the connected green button, and the other party introduced it as expected: "Hi, I'm Jiang Ying."
Su Jia is holding the photo paper? With her fingertips hard, the thin paper is wrinkled, and her voice is calm and composed: "I don't know you."
"You should have heard of me." Jiang Yingruju was indifferent, "I'm at the north gate of your school, let's find a place to have a good chat."
Su Jia glanced at the photo in his hand, and said coldly: "If it's because you sent me the photo, we have nothing to talk about, just a few photos of this level, you think I'm so stupid , will you fall in love with me?"
Jiang Ying's tone was steady: "Not only, but also your past."
Su Jia's heart trembled suddenly, and her tone was clearly anxious: "What do you mean?"
"Come out and chat." After Jiang Ying finished speaking, she hung up the phone.
The sun was blazing, and Su Jia stood still on the side of the bustling campus path, his eyes turned cold, and he gradually rolled the photo in his hand into a ball, angrily threw it into the trash can, and turned around to the north gate of the school.
There were only a lot of people in front of the school gate, but Su Jia quickly recognized the parking lot on the street, sitting in the back seat of the Panamera, lowered all the windows, and looked at her from a distance. Of? Jiang Ying.
Not only because I have only seen her profile photos, but also because of her dignified and demure, everyone's ladylike and elegant temperament.
That's what Su Jia, who comes from a remote county and a small family at the bottom, needs to recognize society early? It's dangerous, and it's hard to be a child who has to fight all by himself.
Su Jia met her rather contemptuous gaze, eyes flashed, sat in her car, and said bluntly: "You don't need to look for a place, just tell me, what do you want to find me? do what?"
Jiang Ying looked at her seriously, and amidst her undisguised impatience and anger, she smiled sweetly: "You guys at your age are really fresh and interesting, and there is always a kind of unsophisticated feeling in your body. ?Innocent and cute."
"But you're an adult after all? You can't be naive all the time."
Su Jia's? Rolling eyes? Brightly turned to the sky, and retorted: "You should be only a few years older than me. Could it be that you have all fallen into the long-winded? Problem?"
Jiang Ying always puts her first priority? Her expression froze for a moment: "Okay, then I'll get straight to the point. I have a private relationship with Ji Xuanyi. For you? Those few photos can prove it."
"If this kind of photo is taken deliberately, I can take a lot of it with the boys in the school every day."
Su Jia clasped her hands in front of her, not paying much attention to it, "If you can't take a picture of something more intimate, don't show it to your eyes. This will only make me think you are desperate and jumping over the wall."
Jiang Ying looked at her intentionally, not sure if she really didn't care, or if she was hiding it well.
But that's beside the point.
"Meeting? It really doesn't mean anything, but Ji Xuanyi will accept the arrangement at home and marry me when he is three or ten years old. Do you know that?" Jiang Ying asked calmly.
Su Jia Wanyue frowned, turned to look at her, and the suspicion that inevitably spread slowly replaced it with equanimity.
"Don't doubt, you can inquire about this matter casually, ask Zhou Yuan, Liu Hao, Yao Linxia, or even Ji Xuanyi himself?"
Jiang Ying's tone was firm, as if she knew Ji Xuanyi's temperament like the back of her hand, "Don't look at him. He usually does his own way, but he can see many important things more thoroughly and openly than anyone else, so he has no feelings for marriage. , I have no feelings about whom to marry, is this what he told me before? "
Su Jia stared fixedly at her eyes, trying to find out the slightest trace of lies.
However, contrary to expectations, she was so calm that there was no flaw, as if she had spoken? Every word could stand repeated scrutiny.
Jiang Ying: "Little sister, you should be aware that his family is in a good situation. Even if the person he married in the end is not me, he definitely won't be you. He himself has told Liu Hao this way."
The last half of the sentence made Su Jia's eyes darken, and what echoed in his ears was Ji Xuanyi's frivolous utterance, "Of course it's the old man's granddaughter and son-in-law."
Did he really just say it to coax her
"You spend two? three? years with him. After two? three? years, he will marry a wife and have children. How do you deal with yourself? Are you wasting a few years of youth for nothing, and then separate from him at that time, or be his? lover??"
Jiang Ying glanced out of the window, the majestic and majestic "Northern City University", "You are admitted to a first-class university anyway? Miaozi, with a bright future, won't you? Willing? Is there such a shameful identity?"
Su Jia grasped the shoulder strap of the backpack, and smiled coldly: "You said so much, the purpose? Isn't it just because you want to? Let Ji Xuanyi and I break up now, you probably don't know me, I don't like you People with malicious intentions are happy."
Jiang Ying obviously came prepared. For her many times of direct verbal attacks, she can still throw out a sentence: "Do you know what Ji Xuanyi likes about you?"
Su Jia was slightly taken aback, she had never asked him this question, and he had never told her.
"In addition to being young and beautiful, there is also purity." Jiang Ying kindly explained her confusion, "Pure as white paper, cleaner than anyone else."
This was a few days ago, when she went to Liu Hao's bar to block people, and asked Liu Hao to set up a line for her and Ji Xuanyi, she still wanted to? When she saw him again, Liu Hao told her that it was Ji Xuanyi's? talk.
Liu Hao made it clear that he would not? Match her up, and persuade her to give up wisely.
He said that after she returned to China, the first time she appeared at Ji's house, she brought a private purpose. She was obviously going for Ji Xuanyi, but she insisted on saying that her family members forced her to marry her. There are too many complexities, hypocrisy, false flattery, and pretense of elegance hidden in the eyes.
Ji Xuanyi could see through these inconsistencies at a glance, and he sneered at them. The only thing that caught his eyes was the pure and innocent white paper.
After Su Jia heard this very suggestive explanation, her complexion was even uglier than Jiang Ying's at that time, as if she had been hit by a blow, she was bloodless.
Jiang Ying's well-trained? The standard smirk is erratic and cold: "You know best, you are not pure, not clean."
Su Jia clenched her backpack shoulder straps into fists. Her nails were not long or short, and she understood the meaning of "the past" she said on the phone.
"I'm curious to find someone? I checked you, and the experience is very inspirational and pitiful, but men? Don't care so much, especially a man with high self-esteem and strong possessiveness like Ji Xuanyi."
Jiang Ying handed over a stack of documents, "You didn't tell him about that, did you? Why didn't you dare to tell him? Did you feel dirty and couldn't talk about it?"
Su Jia glared, and her eyes were bloodshot. She didn't pick up the document bag, and she could guess what was written in it without looking.
Her? In the past, because of Zheng Biao's bastard, she became dark? Fifteen years old.
And in the next? Two? Three? Years, she will be coerced by countless gossip and rumors, and the neighbors in the street will accuse her of not learning well at a young age, and not interacting with boys. How can she attract the attention of boys
He scolded her for being undisciplined and flamboyant all day long to seduce men.
He even laughed that she deserved this disaster, who told her that she was born with a vicious face.
Jiang Ying kept talking, unconsciously revealing some of her ugly mentality: "I can easily? Find out? Ji Xuanyi can. If he knows, what will he think of you?"
Su Jia couldn't refute it, as long as Ji Xuanyi was willing to? understand her? past, it would be absolutely effortless.
After he knows
Su Jia suddenly remembered that Ji Xuanyi said, "Our Jiajia is so small, so clean, and alcohol is like cigarettes, so it's not suitable for you."
And last year in the cold winter, when Li Shuo fiddled with her bangs twice, Ji Xuanyi asked her to wash her hair.
In his strong? concept, if other men? touch her, she will be dirty.
Su Jia ruthlessly pinched her own palm, and used the pain to stabilize the troubles that were about to lose her balance.
She stared back at Jiang Ying with a pair of bloodshot eyes, and finally remembered where she had seen her, the Zhou family's charity dinner, they had a scribbled side.
That absurd? Charity dinner, really attended? Too many people were pretending to be sanctimonious.
Su Jia squeezed out between her teeth: "Since you have found out what happened back then, you still use it to attack me, how despicable and shameless it is."
Jiang Ying's expression moved slightly, barely calm: "I'm helping you analyze the current situation so that you can make a better choice."
"Don't pull the fig leaf for yourself." Su Jia gritted his teeth, "You are sinister and disgusting, dare to do it but dare not admit it? Villain?"
After finishing speaking, she raised her hand to return the file bag, got out of the car and ran.
The cardboard fan that flew up suddenly touched Jiang Ying's chin, and she was taken aback in pain.
The driver in the front row saw it in the rearview mirror, and immediately cared: "Miss, are you alright?"
Jiang Ying blinked her eyelashes quickly, put the folder away, and regained her composure: "It's okay."
She looked out at the young girls who had already rushed into the school, and there was a flash of joy in her eyes.
This act is indeed despicable, but it works as long as it works.
Su Jia's head was as heavy as lead, and there was a steady stream of humming in his ears. He ran to the dormitory dully, and stopped when he bumped into someone head-on.
"I'm sorry." She lowered her head and stepped back again and again.
"It's okay." It was Li Shuo's voice, "Su Jia, are you in a hurry? Run so fast."
Su Jia raised her eyes to look at him, she was dressed in a cool basketball uniform, most likely she was going to play.
She shook her head absently, said "I'm going back to the dormitory first" and ran away.
Li Shuo was at a loss, worried? He followed.
Su Jia went straight back to the bedroom.
Yao Linxia was invited out for a drive by Zhou Yuan, Shu Xinjing was in the library, and only Mingli was there.
She is busy painting her eyebrows and lips, ready to go on a date with Wan Hengyu
Su Jia rushed in, and Mingli turned to look at her, exclaiming: "Jiajia, are you uncomfortable? You look so bad."
"No." Su Jia walked to her? Desk, wiped off the hot sweat on her forehead, and poured a glass of cold water.
Mingli cared about her a few more words, but after she shook her head, she turned around and flicked her phone: "Big data, I finally started talking about sweet things? Love, why do you push this kind of article for me?"
Su Jia was in a trance, didn't hear clearly at all, and answered unconsciously: "What?"
Mingli held up her mobile phone and read: "The title is 'Would a bald head be replaced by snow, and the meeting is already signed'. It sounds very sad."
The end of the long-delayed sound, as if on the ground? There was a thunder, and Su Jia suddenly opened his eyes wide.
She searched desperately in the cabinet, and found the photo of her and Ji Xuanyi looking at each other with gray hair under the silent snowfall.
At that time, Su Jia was moved? Thinking? "If he was drenched in the same snow in the morning, he would be considered gray in this life." However, how can snow replace white hair
She was in front of her grandma's grave, thinking that they could overcome all difficulties and go on, but it was her wishful thinking and naivety.
Jiang Ying's words are true, she is an adult, she can't be naive all the time.
Su Jia originally thought that she had recognized all the gaps between her and Ji Xuanyi, but it was far from enough.
Between them, there is also a section that she doesn't want to touch, dare not touch? Once.
That weight was comparable to the top of Mount Tai, bending her proud body, lowering her to the dust and sinking into the abyss.
From the very beginning, she lost the qualification to be side by side with him for a long time.
Not long after, Mingli went out on a date, and only Su Jia was left in the dormitory. She stared at the Polaroid in her hand alone, her eyes were sore, and she was reluctant to blink.
The buzzing vibration of the phone called her back to the cold and cruel reality.
Did Ji Xuanyi call
In his thick and cold voice, he carried the tenderness unique to her: "Is it at school? I just went to the partner's? Company meeting? The afternoon tea they prepared is not bad. I guess it suits your? Appetite, give You ordered one."
Somebody around him heard it, and teased: "I said Mr. Ji doesn't like sweets, why would he? Touch that piece of cake, maybe he tasted it for someone else? Ah."
"That's right, now when I see sweets, I think of my girlfriend."
Ji Xuanyi laughed and chatted with that person for a while, and said to Su Jia: "I still have a meeting and dinner, and I hope it ends sooner, so I can find you."
No matter how gentle the spring breeze is, it will be like a knife sharpening someone when it is not blown at the right time.
Su Jia endured the endless pain in his chest, held the photo paper instead, closed his eyes, and made up his mind to call: "Ji Xuanyi."
Ji Xuanyi's voice was stained with laughter: "Well, I'm here."
"We're divided..." Su Jia paused for half a second, and revised her wording: "Let's separate."
