Jiang Jingbai's physical strength was not as good as she imagined. The two of them painted on each other until late at night and then stopped, and then hugged each other until dawn. They overslept the next day and didn't wake up until noon.
She was woken up by the ringing of her mobile phone. When Yu Xi opened her eyes, Jiang Jingbai’s mobile phone was still ringing, but she didn’t show any sign of waking up. Jiang Jingbai had always been a light sleeper, but now her mobile phone was noisy for a long time without any movement. It was really exhausting.
She picked up the phone and saw the name displayed on the screen, it was Assistant Xiao.
After picking it up, the other end was obviously stunned for a few seconds. Assistant Xiao was very professional and didn't ask any more questions. He just asked, "Is President Jiang here?"
Yu Xi kicked Jiang Jingbai, seeing that she didn't respond, she twisted her ears and shouted, "Jiang Jingbai."
"your phone."
Jiang Jingbai opened her sour eyes and stared vaguely.
"Yeah." The voice was slightly lower, she sat up slowly, clamped the phone between her ears and shoulders, the nightgown was thrown on the ground by the two of them as early as last night, so she is now naked, with round and small shoulders , the neck was shrunk, the clavicle line was obvious, delicate and sexy, Yu Xi fell asleep, and lay beside her to watch Jiang Jingbai answer the phone.
Jiang Jingbai noticed that her eyes were glued to her body, and there was a slight smile on her sleepy face. She touched Yu Xi's cheek with her other hand, her eyes were gentle and lingering. The person on the other end of the phone was still asking, so she nodded: "contract?"
"Let me see." She said and was about to get out of bed, but when she lifted the quilt, she realized that she was not wearing any clothes. She was not shy or shy, but turned her head to look at Yu Xi. The nightgown was on the edge of Yu Xi's bed. Xishun took one and put it on her back from behind, and put her hands around the front, and dexterously tied the straps of her nightgown for her. Her slender fingers were slightly cool, and after finishing the nightgown, she slithered nimbly like a snake. Going in, poking into the nightgown, Jiang Jingbai was about to get up and was unprepared. She almost fell back on the bed after being pressed so lightly by her. She gritted her teeth and swallowed the unconscious voice, but there was a warm breath in her ears. Touched her earlobe, then patted her on the shoulder: "Go to work."
really—
Jiang Jingbai turned her head to see the naive Yu Xi smiling at her, as if she was retaliating for her dissatisfaction last night, she opened her lips and said, "Well, wait for me for a minute."
While speaking, the figure had already left the room, and Yu Xi could only hear intermittent chatter.
Jiang Jingbai woke up, she didn't feel sleepy, so she just got up to wash up, it was already past meal time, and there was a message from Zhong Chen on her mobile phone, asking her about her breakfast, but she didn't reply, so Zhong Chen didn't ask any more questions, just thinking about it , the second message came.
— Xixi, are you awake? Do I need to come over for lunch
Yu Xi wanted to answer her for a few seconds: No need.
Zhong Chen got the reply, jumped up from the sofa, and immediately typed: Xixi, you finally woke up! I thought you were going to sleep until the afternoon today! Don't get too tired, you just got off the show.
When Yu Xi saw this concerned news, she felt that it was not right no matter how she thought about it, and she didn't think about it if it wasn't enough, so she just replied indifferently: "Okay."
Concise and concise, she found that after she was with Jiang Jingbai, she didn't consciously speak with Mr. Jiang's style.
No way.
Yu Xi shook off the thoughts in his head, opened the door and walked out. Jiang Jingbai was sitting on the sofa, still talking on the phone.
"Found it, here I am."
"Well, come and get it."
"it is good."
After finishing speaking, she hung up the phone without any pause, Yu Xi sat beside her and asked, "What's for lunch?"
The tone was natural and intimate, as familiar as lovers who have been together for many years, Jiang Jingbai paused while pinching the phone, and said: "Assistant Xiao will come over later, I asked her to prepare lunch, do you want to take a break?"
"Why should I rest?" Yu Xi muttered, "I'm not tired."
The tone was complaining, Jiang Jingbai couldn't help but find it funny when she thought of her vengeful behavior just now, last night she couldn't bear Yuxi to be tired again, maybe she had too much exercise, originally she just wanted to 'serve' her well, but Yuxi Xi will be angry.
"I'll go wash up first." Jiang Jingbai said, "Assistant Xiao is here, you open the door for her."
Yu Xi nodded: "Understood."
After Jiang Jingbai returned to the room, she tidied up the inside first, changed the sheets, and finally went to the bathroom to wash up with her nightgown.
In the living room, Yu Xi had already turned on the TV. There were still two hours before her show came out. After changing her sitting position a few times, she found that she was still getting nervous. She couldn't help but take out her mobile phone and start surfing Weibo.
There is no news about the program group yet, and the hot searches are all about last night's Mingya, this stunning look, that exquisite outfit, or netizens commenting on whether this award is worthwhile, but there are not many discussions about the award, because this year won the male and female awards. The main prize winners are all established artists with prestige, acting skills, and strength. Although they don’t have many fans, they are popular with the audience. Netizens also feel that they deserve the award, so they almost withdrew only under the blessing of Weibo. this topic.
The rest are some small quarrels that don't make waves.
Yu Xi watched it for a while and was about to turn off Weibo when her phone vibrated. She looked at the screen and saw that it was Bai Yutang calling her.
"Xixi, the program team will be promoting later, please cooperate." Because Weibo is managed by Yuxi herself, Bai Yutang sent a notification to Yuxi when she received the news, and Yuxi nodded: "Okay, I knew."
"Director Zhu's filming will start next year. This year..." Usually, Yu Xi stopped at the busiest time. Bai Yutang was actually very busy these two days. Tao Yitong's career improved, and she began to take her everywhere. Fei, so she is not idle, but the busier she is, the more she feels guilty towards Yu Xi. Although it is not her fault, but she and Yu Xi have known each other for so many years and walked together, and they have to put aside their personal feelings to deal with their affairs, Bai Yutang She thought she couldn't do it, so she said, "You can rest this year."
"We'll start again next year."
Yu Xi couldn't hear her comforting words, and said with a smile: "I know Sister Bai, you should work hard."
Bai Yutang gave a few more instructions before hanging up the phone.
Yu Xi lowered his eyes and continued to look at his mobile phone. Not ten minutes after Bai Yutang sent the message, Leguo's official sent a message, and also Aite a few of their artists. Yu Xi glanced, the first Aite person was Liu Yuyao.
Soon other artists began to repost and interact with each other. Liu Yuyao didn't wait for the finale to appear as before. Instead, she sent a message early, and by the way, all the members of Aite's program team, Yu Xi looked at her official statement and guessed it was sent by her agent , she didn't think too much, but forwarded it and left two comments. Fans flocked to Leguo's official Weibo, and a large number of them were Liu Yuyao's fans. She just served as Mingya's award presenter yesterday. , the fans are in a state of excitement, and now there is another show, so of course they shifted their attention to this side. Yuxi's comment was ranked second in the most popular comments. In comparison, her fans are much calmer and behaved Confession, unanimous expectation, in the past, he would pull Liu Yuyao out to make fun of him, but this time he remained obediently silent, and no one provoked him.
Yu Xi was picking on her phone boredly when the doorbell rang. It should be that Assistant Xiao came over. She stepped on the slippers and straightened her hair and walked to the door. When she opened the door, she was stunned for two seconds. She subconsciously wanted to close the door. After returning, she calmly called out after a few seconds: "Aunt Qian."
Qian Caixia couldn't hide her astonishment when she saw Yu Xi. She was carrying three or four black bags and was wearing a big padded jacket. She hadn't seen her for many years. Her black hair was dyed white, and the wrinkles on her forehead were deeply wrinkled, like ravines. , Let this familiar face become strange.
"Yu, Yuxi?" After a long while, a doubtful voice sounded, Yuxi's heart beat a few beats suddenly when she heard her words, she nodded: "It's me, Aunt Qian."
"Why are you here?" Qian Caixia slowly regained her astonishment, but her expression was still not pretty. She stared at Yu Xi and said, "Isn't this the place where Jingbai lives?"
"I, we..." After eight years, Yu Xi never expected to meet Qian Caixia in such a situation. She lowered her eyes and was still wearing Jiang Jingbai's pajamas. The originally comfortable clothes seemed to be covered with thorns. , stuck on her body, Yu Xi's eloquent teeth suddenly lost their effect at this moment, and she opened her mouth for a long time without saying anything.
A slightly lower voice came from behind: "Mom."
"Why are you here?" The tone was the same as usual, Yu Xi turned her head and saw Jiang Jing's long white hair slightly wet walking towards her. After seeing Qian Caixia, she said helplessly, "Didn't you be told to rest at home and not come over?"
Jiang Jingbai said, took the bag from Qian Caixia's hand, turned her head to the dazed Yuxi and said, "Xixi, pour me a glass of water."
Yu Xi came to her senses and nodded, "Okay."
She walked to the kitchen at the back. The two of them had just woken up, and there was no hot water to boil. Yu Xi stood in the kitchen, filled the kettle with water, and pressed the switch. Suddenly, there was the sound of boiling water in the kitchen. Xi heard something harsh, and she couldn't help but take two steps back and stood at the door of the kitchen.
Jiang Jingbai's clear voice was the same as before, without lowering her voice, she asked, "Mom, why are you here?"
Qian Caixia had already recovered from the shock just now, she said with a serious face: "It's almost a new year, I'll come and see if there is anything that needs to be cleaned."
Jiang Jingbai sat on the sofa: "No need." She refused: "I will tidy it up myself."
The tone was not unfamiliar, but not familiar. Qian Caixia knew that after her second marriage with Yitong's father, the child had always been unhappy, and she was not willing to disturb her because she was busy abroad, so the two In fact, there are not many people to contact.
She has been back to China for nearly half a year, and she only went back twice, and she came and went in a hurry, eating at most one meal, so this time it was about to celebrate the Chinese New Year, she thought about coming over to take a look, but she didn't expect to see something wrong after seeing it.
"You and Yuxi..." She seemed unhappy to mention this name, Jiang Jingbai raised her eyes and said with her usual expression: "Mom, Yuxi and I are together."
"You!" Qian Caixia was suddenly gasped in her throat when she said this.
Originally, she only found out what happened eight years ago. Although she knew that Yu Xi was innocent, it was not easy for her to let go of the hatred that had lasted for several years. She thought, quietly Bai Neng and Yu Xi drew a clear line, even if they were friends, it would be fine.
Obviously not.
Seeing her ugly face, Jiang Jingbai got up and sat next to her, lowered her head and held her hand, and she showed intimacy for the first time, she opened her lips: "Mom, Yu Xi is also a victim, I know you still have feelings for her now." Prejudice, it’s okay, she and I can wait.”
"Wait until you let go of your prejudices before accepting us."
Qian Caixia withdrew her hand: "Does it have to be her?"
Jiang Jingbai nodded after being silent for a few seconds: "It must be her."
"You child!" Qian Caixia was about to raise her voice, when she saw Yu Xi from the kitchen coming over with two glasses of water, she swallowed the words without tearing her face, but just let out a cold snort.
Holding the cup, Yu Xi shouted, "Auntie, drink some water."
Qian Caixia pretended not to hear, and remained motionless. Jiang Jingbai took the cup from Yu Xi, put it in front of Qian Caixia, and said softly, "Mom, drink some water."
She rarely speaks to Qian Caixia in this tone, and she has never shown weakness since she was an adult. Whether she is an outsider or in front of her as a mother, she always has a very cold posture, not putting on airs or being too strong. She is cold-tempered, sullen and doesn't get close to anyone, so the relationship between their mother and daughter has never been eased.
Now that she was finally showing weakness, Qian Caixia was so bewildered that she didn't know what to say. Finally, she took the cup and put it on the coffee table. I heard Qian Caixia ask: "When did you two get together?"
It means to settle accounts after autumn.
Jiang Jing returned to her after being silent for a while: "More than a month ago."
"You didn't tell me!" Qian Caixia said angrily, "Do you still think of me as your mother?"
Jiang Jingbai lowered her eyes: "I thought Yitong told you."
"What Yitong, don't talk about others, Yitong she..." Qian Caixia paused: "She knows Yitong?"
Jiang Jingbai looked up with an innocent look: "Didn't she tell you? She always knew."
Yu Xi twitched the corners of her mouth when she saw her betraying, but said nothing.
Qian Caixia didn't stay for more than 20 minutes, she muttered a few words with a sullen face and got up to leave, Jiang Jingbai didn't force her to stay, it happened that Assistant Xiao came to deliver lunch and pick up documents, Jiang Jingbai asked her to send Qian Caixia back.
Yu Xi felt that this was not very good, and Jiang Jingbai stopped her when she wanted to speak, so she had no choice but to say, "Auntie, go slowly."
Qian Caixia sighed deeply and stepped into the elevator.
The numbers on the elevator kept moving, Jiang Jingbai took Yu Xi's hand and said, "Let's go back."
Yu Xi lowered his eyes: "Is your mother going back like this?"
Jiang Jingbai nodded: "Don't worry, she will think clearly."
She took Yu Xi's hand and went back to the living room. The two sat facing each other. Yu Xi's fingers were twisted together, with a hesitant expression on his face: "What if she can't figure it out?"
"No, she just can't pass the test in her heart now." Jiang Jingbai looked up, saw her worried, reached out to pat her head, and slightly raised the corners of her lips to explain: "I went home on the day I returned, and she asked me Why come back."
Jiang Jingbai touched Yu Xi's face with her fingertips, her gaze was gentle: "I told her because of you."
"She knows me and knows that I can't do without you, she will think clearly."
Yu Xi raised his eyes when he heard the words, his eyes were clear, and he was speechless for a while.
