When Jiang Ning went upstairs, Jiang Fan sniffed his nose and turned his back in a panic.
Jiang Ning felt amused, and deliberately said: "I almost broke my leg because of a certain kid, and a certain kid didn't even look at me."
Jiang Fan pinched the corner of his clothes and turned around awkwardly.
Jiang Ning saw his little daughter-in-law who hesitated to speak, and said, "Needless to say thank you, you should study hard next time, and being admitted to Tsinghua University will be my reward."
It was Tsinghua University again, Jiang Fan's eyes darkened, his ass-brained mind couldn't tell if he would read three books in the future, isn't Jiang Ning daydreaming? He snorted, and said in a low voice: "Who said I want to repay you, you are my sister, this is what you should do."
In his previous life, Jiang Fan didn't communicate with his family at all. He put down his schoolbag all day and went out to play games with a group of friends. Now he can act like a baby to himself, Jiang Ning couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
"Let's do this." Jiang Fan seemed to cut off his wrist like a strong man: "For you, I will not hate my future brother-in-law in the future, and I can even bring you two to the swimming pool this weekend."
"Brother-in-law, you are tall." Jiang Ning almost choked out of anger: "If you call me like that again, I will break your leg."
...Wait, the words of breaking a leg seem a little familiar, where have I heard it.
The last time Jiang Ning said that, Jiang Fan didn't take it seriously, thinking that she was being bullied by Xu Mingyi again, and the whole alley knew that she was Xu Mingyi's little follower, and they had followed her for almost ten years.
But this time.
He looked at Jiang Ning in surprise, he knew his sister himself. Why did he feel that Jiang Ning was not joking, but really resisted
Jiang Fan has not recovered yet.
Jiang Ning said: "But you do have something to help me."
Jiang Fan is the king of kids in the alley, so it would be much more efficient for him to find a few kids to help.
...
Xu Mingyi waited here all night, but he didn't even see a shadow of Jiang Ning. Instead, a lot of people came here.
He is popular, his family is rich, and he is very popular in school. Even those who were not invited by him are willing to come over to celebrate him at their own expense.
Xu Mingyi acted nonchalantly at first, and was able to distract himself from chatting with Zhong Congshuang, who came to him, about the competition topic of the day before yesterday. Later, he frequently looked towards the door of the private room, frowning more and more.
Si Xiangming could clearly feel that his air pressure was getting lower and lower.
"What time is it?" Xu Mingyi asked.
Si Xiangming said: "It's eight o'clock, and Tan Pengxing said he's going to sing later, are you going?"
Xu Mingyi said, "Use your mobile phone to call Jiang Ning."
"Why are you calling her?" Si Xiangming was taken aback: "You need to find her?"
Xu Mingyi didn't know what happened to him.
Whether Jiang Ning had a cold war with him or ignored him, he shouldn't care. He has so many friends. He has played with him since he was a child. There are only a dozen or so friends, and there is no shortage of Jiang Ning.
But he has been in an inexplicable mood for the past few days, as if the toys that accompanied him since he was a child disappeared without warning.
Going to participate in the competition, Jiang Ning refused to send him off, which caused a link in the steps he had been accustomed to for more than ten years to suddenly break.
When playing basketball, there is no Jiang Ning's chattering and chattering, it's more like a little voice-over.
Xu Mingyi told himself that the reason why he was upset about such a trivial matter was because Jiang Ning was a little follower who followed him since he wore open crotch pants, and he was more emotional.
Anyone who is ignored by a good friend for many years will have the same reaction as him.
So... it's normal.
"Yes, if you need to find her, you can call her on your mobile phone. Don't mention me, just ask her why she didn't come to Xu Mingyi's celebration party tonight." Xu Mingyi said coldly.
Si Xiangming was confused, he always thought that Xu Mingyi was impatient and Jiang Ning ran after him, but now it seems... that doesn't seem to be the case
He wanted to tease a few words, but seeing Xu Mingyi's face, he swallowed it back.
Si Xiangming obediently took out his mobile phone and dialed Jiang Ning.
Xu Mingyi stared at the screen of his mobile phone without blinking.
About three seconds later, the call rang through.
"Jiang—" Si Xiangming was about to speak.
The phone was hung up.
hung up...
Si Xiangming looked at Xu Mingyi with embarrassment: "What's wrong with Jiang Ning, she didn't answer my phone."
Xu Mingyi's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Si Xiangming said to Xu Mingyi: "Could it be that she didn't see the news in the group at all? I heard that she has been busy with Jiang Fan's school transfer these two days."
This is not impossible, Jiang Ning has always been careless.
Hearing this, Xu Mingyi's expression softened.
However, on the other side, Tan Pengxing heard what the two said, and subconsciously took over the words: "Impossible, I posted it in the space, and asked who else would come, and she gave me a like."
Si Xiangming: "..."
Looking at Xu Mingyi's face again, it was even uglier than a basketball team from another school coming to provoke him.
Just as Si Xiangming was about to say something, Xu Mingyi picked up his coat and strode away with a dark face: "I've already settled the bill, you guys take your time."
Si Xiangming couldn't help turning his head and glaring at Tan Pengxing: "You're the only one who talks too much."
"No," Tan Pengxing was confused, "what is he doing? Isn't the atmosphere more harmonious if Jiang Ning doesn't come? Look at how much fun everyone is having. Zhong Congshuang is also here. I thought he would send Zhong Congshuang off Frost go back."
Zhong Congshuang doesn't live in the downtown area, and his home address is relatively remote.
When she first transferred from another school, she wore blue cloth shoes and a red plaid sweater. She was a poor student, and it was inevitable that she would be stared at by children from Hengchu's well-off families. Xu Mingyi's sunshine is wanton, and she can't understand the theory of family status the most, so she beat up the person who bullied her, and helped Zhong Congshuang many times with little effort.
With his help, Zhong Congshuang gradually integrated into the collective. The changes in the past two years have been very great, and it is not obvious that he was born in poverty.
She gradually began to participate in many activities in the class, including the national Go selection and competitions in various subjects. And because she is very tenacious, she gradually keeps up with Xu Mingyi's footsteps and shines with excellence.
The two are both rivals and friends, walking together with light and shadow.
Many people in the class felt that she and Xu Mingyi were a match made in heaven.
Including a few minutes ago, when Hu Qiqi was still making things difficult for Zhong Congshuang, she murmured to the people around her: "I really thought that good grades are great, and I can be with Xu Mingyi."
When this word reached Zhong Congshuang's ears, Zhong Congshuang just smiled generously: "Xu Mingyi and I are just study committee members and class monitors, but because of the competition, we have more contact. I never thought about falling in love when I was studying. "
When Hu Qiqi saw her pretending, she became angry, and thought that it would be better than Jiang Ning, who had the lowest grades and flaunted her teeth and claws.
However, she did not regard Jiang Ning as an imaginary enemy. In Hu Qiqi's view, Zhong Congshuang was more competitive.
Everyone knows that Xu Mingyi appreciates girls with excellent grades and brains.
Jiang Ning is pretty, but her grades are a mess. Xu Mingyi gave her extra lessons before, but he didn't help her up. What's more, after knowing each other for so many years, Xu Mingyi should only regard her as his younger sister.
On the contrary, the girls in class one couldn't bear Zhong Congshuang being bullied, and they yelled at Hu Qiqi: "Who are you from the other class, and you come to have a meal too."
Hu Qiqi was angry, she and Si Xiangming were young, and Si Xiangming and Xu Mingyi were good friends, rounding up, she knew Xu Mingyi longer than Zhong Congshuang anyway. You actually said she was cheating
The girl said triumphantly again: "Xu Mingyi has to send Zhong Congshuang back later."
As a result, after saying this, the door of the box was opened, and Xu Mingyi didn't know what happened to him, so he left early without saying hello.
Everyone here: "... .."
The girls on Zhong Congshuang's side were a little embarrassed, but Hu Qiqi was happy and laughed: "Some people are really bragging and are not afraid to blow it to the sky."
...
Xu Mingyi came out with his coat, intending to blow the cold wind to relieve his dry mind.
As a result, as soon as he left the hotel, he saw several familiar figures on the opposite street.
Who is it not Jiang Ning
She seemed to be saying something to Jiang Fan and some of Jiang Fan's friends.
... So they actually came over, they just didn't come in.
Xu Mingyi looked over there, and the dryness and unhappiness in his heart dissipated a little.
When he was looking over there, Jiang Ning also happened to look over.
Jiang Ning was taken aback, why is Xu Mingyi here
Then I remembered that tonight seemed to be his celebration banquet.
But Xu Mingyi pursed his lips, and decided to bow his head first, to put an end to this inexplicable cold war.
Anyway, since he is a boy, he should be more magnanimous and let Jiang Ning step down first.
Thinking of this, he sulked up his face and walked over there on his own initiative.
But Jiang Ning looked away at him after glancing at him.
Xu Mingyi:? ?
Before he could react, Zhong Congshuang, who hurriedly chased up from the hotel, grabbed Xu Mingyi's sleeve from behind: "Xu Mingyi, what happened?"
Zhong Congshuang didn't know why Xu Mingyi left without finishing his meal.
Tan Pengxing and the others booed and said that Xu Mingyi would send her back after the celebration banquet was over, and Zhong Congshuang thought so too. But who would have thought that Xu Mingyi left early with an ugly face, without saying a word.
The atmosphere in the box became awkward because of this.
Zhong Congshuang thought that he might have something to do at home, and was a little worried, so he chased after him without caring about his schoolbag.
At this moment, Xu Mingyi was only ten steps away from Jiang Ning, and the light in front of the shop illuminated the space between him and Zhong Congshuang, and Zhong Congshuang's hand was also tugging on his sleeve brightly.
Jiang Ning's eyes fell.
Almost subconsciously, Xu Mingyi immediately looked at Jiang Ning, and at the same time tried to shake Zhong Conshuang's hand away.
However, in the next second, Jiang Ning turned his gaze away expressionlessly.
As if she didn't see it, she directly dragged Jiang Fan who was staring at him away.
Xu Mingyi: "..."
Xu Mingyi quickly pushed Zhong Congshuang away, but he could only see Jiang Ning's back.
Xu Mingyi knew Jiang Ning very well. When she saw this kind of thing before, even if Hu Shanshan was a foot away from him, she would rush to find out.
But the expression she casually turned her face away just now was clearly...not caring.
At this moment, Yan Yixie was sitting in the courtyard, wearing a coat and holding a mobile phone in his hand. As if waiting for something, and as if nothing had happened, just looking at the moon bored.
Summer is coming to an end, the courtyard is not comfortable, even though the sandalwood is lit under the tree, there are occasional flying insects, but the butler has noticed that the young master often stays here and waits recently.
He didn't know why the young master hadn't slept at this time tonight, so he came out with a blanket in his arms to remind him, "It's already late, and the night is heavy with dew, don't you take a rest?"
Yan Yi thanked but said: "Are you ready for supper?"
The butler was taken aback: "Supper, you never eat supper."
Due to physical reasons, Yan Yixie's work, rest and diet are very regular, day after day is like a precision instrument.
Yan Yixie turned his face away: "Get ready, I suddenly want to eat."
The housekeeper figured out something was wrong, and asked, "What would the young master want to eat?"
With a cold face, Yan Yixie began to announce the names of the dishes like an emotionless robot: "Tangyuan, fried pork with asparagus, pine mushrooms, a little of each."
The butler had a half-smile: "Eating so much at night is not good for your health."
Yan Yixie frowned, and glared at him: "What are you laughing at?"
The butler quickly suppressed his smile: "I didn't laugh."
The housekeeper went in to prepare supper, Yan Yixie continued to sit in the courtyard, glanced at the time, it was ten o'clock.
After a while, he looked at the time again, it was ten past ten.
After a while, I saw that it was half past ten.
Yan Yixie frowned, opened the SMS inbox again, and took a look.
The first text message lay in the empty inbox, and the other party sent it: "Did you sleep at 9:30 in the evening? Can I go over and show you something good."
what good stuff? Yan Yixie thought to herself, if it was a spider caterpillar again this time, it would break her leg.
Or maybe she just forgot after sending the text message and won't come at night.
Even though he thought so, Yan Yixie still sat in the yard with a cold face, the moonlight fell on his handsome face, as if a layer of frost had condensed on it.
At this moment, there was some noise outside the courtyard of the villa, and a familiar figure ran over with a flashlight over the carved fence. While running, he yelled at him: "Yan Yixie, look."
Yan Yixie adjusted his expression and looked over there coldly.
He was startled for a moment.
I saw a bunch of fireflies slowly flying out of the schoolbag in Jiang Ning's arms.
The green fireflies are like dots of stars, which are wet at the end of summer, lighting up Jiang Ning's crescent eyes. As she ran, she came towards him with light.
