Chapter 22:
After Jiang Xiao walked out of the restaurant, he threw his half-drinking cup of cold soy milk into the trash can.
It was windy outside, so he put on the coat and hat he was wearing today, walked back alone, lowered his head, and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
After talking to Lin Chengyu about those things, his heart was actually complicated. The person who has experienced those things is himself, Jiang Xiao is not a wood, and he will not feel at all.
It's a relief to let go, but the memory feels suffocating at the thought of it.
Pay attention to the small details of the person you love, and you feel happy when you get a little affirmation from the other party. Love is humble and sad. When he was treated perfunctorily by Lin Chengyu, and finally when he was waiting to die in the hospital bed, how painful and uncomfortable he was, only He knew it himself.
Those two tears, Jiang Xiao shed for her past self.
How dare you say this to someone who treats you like this? Why do you still have the face to say this? Don't you think it's ridiculous and sad to talk about love and love at this time?
He won't believe these nonsense anymore.
In the afternoon, Ye Bing had enough rest, and the goods on the car were already loaded. Jiang Xiao stuffed his little snakeskin bag into the corner of the carriage, and the car was about to drive in the direction of Houlin.
As a result, as soon as he finished stuffing the goods, he turned around and saw Lin Chengyu, standing not far from the truck, his eyes were still red.
Why are you still here?
Jiang Xiao frowned.
Ye Bing was checking the status of the cargo box and the cart, and he also saw people.
"Jiang Hai doesn't really know any rich people in Liujiang, does he?" Ye Bing knows a thing or two about what the Lin family came to find. The hotel has a good relationship with him, and it is not the first time he has seen this impressive picture of Lin Chengyu. He couldn't help but muttered a few times, "I haven't heard him mention it before, why did I come to you twice?"
Jiang Hai is Jiang Xiao's father's name.
"Uncle Ye, don't talk about my dad's unrelated incident," Jiang Xiao said. "This family is very strange. You'd better stay out of touch."
Ye Bing glanced at him, probably because it was rare for Jiang Xiao to look so serious.
He has been a truck driver for a long time. He has met a lot of people from all over the world. He has a smooth personality. Except for a few close friends, he only recognizes benefits when he goes out, but Jiang Xiao doesn't like it. It's a matter of the Jiang family. , he can't take care of it. Besides, they were all fifteen or sixteen-year-olds. Ye Bing was two rounds away from the others. He saw the people over there coming, but Jiang Xiao didn't let him care, and he didn't talk much, so after checking the condition of the car, he got into the driver's seat. Waiting for Jiang Xiao.
And after watching a lot, Ye Bing always felt that this person seemed to be here for Jiang Xiao, not because of his parents.
Jiang Xiao also wanted to follow him into the car, but Lin Chengyu stepped forward and grabbed his hand.
"Xiaoxiao," he gave Jiang Xiao a pleasing smile, but with his eyes with traces of crying, this smile seemed strange, and it was like crying when he laughed, "I have something for you, you are noon I went too fast and forgot to take it."
He carried several department store bags in his hand and wanted to put them in his hand, but even if these things were put into Jiang Xiao's hands, he would just put them on the ground in the next second.
Jiang Xiao refused to accept his things.
"It's cold in Houlin, Xiaoxiao, just some clothes," Lin Chengyu said with a wry smile, "Isn't it okay to take it as a reward?"
"I can't afford this reward," Jiang Xiao sneered, "I will earn the money and buy the clothes myself, so I don't need you to be kind."
"Xiaoxiao, I know you won't believe what I say to you now," Lin Chengyu sighed, "but the love I said is true, I won't let go, I can't let go."
"Lin Chengyu, don't you understand human language?!"
"I understand, you said break up, yes," Lin Chengyu said, "I will chase you back again."
He is now even more paranoid than Jiang Xiao, he will not let go if he catches someone, let alone a lost treasure, he is even more unwilling to give up.
"Then I advise you not to waste your efforts," Jiang Xiao looked at him and sneered, "Impossible."
After he said this, he suddenly kicked Lin Chengyu's calf.
Jiang Xiao is really good at fighting, and hitting people hurts a lot. He used a lot of strength, but Lin Chengyu didn't notice it for a while, and there was a heart-wrenching pain in his calf.
Even so, he still held Jiang Xiao's hand and was reluctant to let it go, but his strength was really not that great. Jiang Xiao took advantage of this time to push Lin Chengyu to the ground, and after breaking free, he trotted all the way to the co-pilot.
"Uncle Ye, let's go." Jiang Xiao fastened his seat belt, "It's already a little late, be careful not to bump into people and get corrupted."
Ye Bing: "Oh."
He thought the atmosphere was a bit strange, but didn't say much.
When the car was moving, Jiang Xiao saw Lin Chengyu get up from the ground through the car window, and kept staring at himself sitting in the car. The cart started, and he ran with him, limping, as if he wanted to say something, but when the car turned, no one could see it.
Jiang Xiao came to Liujiang to stock up on the weekend, and he had to go back to class, so Lin Chengyu couldn't tie him to his side no matter how he didn't want him to leave. When he returned to the old house, he opened his trousers and saw a large bruise on his calf.
He really didn't hold back.
Lin Chengyu sighed, put an ice pack on it, and then put medicated oil on himself, but it still hurts when touched, just at this time Uncle Yue came to him and saw how embarrassed he was chasing people.
Uncle Yue is very professional and generally doesn't get involved in the emotional affairs of the Lin family. The rich people play with flowers. This is really not an unacceptable thing. He has seen it a lot. However, it is really rare to be like Lin Chengyu, and his actions in all aspects are not like people of this age.
"Is it necessary for him?" Uncle Yue took the medicated oil to give him medicine, and sighed, "Make yourself like this."
This injury does not need Lin Chengyu to say that he also knows who kicked it. The Lin family has money. In order to prevent kidnapping, the children have received professional training since childhood. People who dare not move the slightest bit of hair.
"It has to be him," Lin Chengyu said, and he even smiled, "I am happy with what he does to me now."
Hopeless.
Uncle Yue sighed, stopped mentioning this matter, and told him about Lin Feng's recent movements.
He is already talking about the Mingyuewan project, and after carefully checking the company's accounts, the building materials company of his wife's family has done several business deals with Yongjiang, but apart from the relationship, this business is not big at present. The problem, I went to the warehouse to see that the quality of the materials given is not bad. It may be a bit of a personal enrichment, but the number is not large.
Even if Grandpa knew about this, he wouldn't be too angry. Everyone has selfishness.
It wasn't until the Mingyuewan project began to talk about Yongjiang's aggressive expansion that the other party became more courageous.
When it comes to the company's affairs, Lin Chengyu seems to be more normal. He asked carefully, and then told Uncle Yue to pay more attention to the specific aspects.
Even though Lin Chengyu has work experience in his previous life, his experience is one aspect, and his understanding of the company's current situation is another aspect. He still has more to learn.
Jiang Xiao, Jiang Xiao.
He could fall asleep reading this name every day.
But grandpa also felt that he was abnormal recently. In order to divert his attention, he gave him more homework and tasks, and he still had to go to school. He is now being controlled by his family, especially in terms of schedule. It is even more difficult to shun the train to Houlin at any time.
"It's not that I don't let you go at all," Yue Cheng comforted him. "Besides, people don't want to see you. Going too often is counterproductive. The old man is thinking of you."
What he said was quite reasonable. Anyway, after Jiang Xiao returned to Houlin, as if nothing had happened, he counted the new goods, recorded the accounts, and put them on the shelves by category.
The shelf space is limited, many of his items are sold in batches, and he is not in a hurry.
Moreover, several items that he custom-purchased have been fully affirmed by the other girls. Carrying it on his shoulders is really eye-catching in school. He even sold a few schoolbags that Jiang Xiao brought back, but because of the high price, not All girls can afford it, and the same line of pencil cases, small purses, and accessories sells well.
His reputation for small shelves is getting higher and higher, and after his directional purchasing function was discovered, several wealthy girls from the family came to the door alone and ordered several items.
Lin Heyuan knew that his business was getting bigger, because Ye Yingying now spent a lot of time in the studio to learn painting, and not often in school, the relationship between the two of them was getting better and better.
However, Lin Heyuan still insisted on persuading him to study. As long as Jiang Xiao studied hard most of the time, he had no opinion on other matters.
Jiang Xiao sometimes asks him for self-study on weekends, and even takes Ye Yingying, who is studying art. Although he is now an art student, he still has to take the cultural class. With Ye Yingying's poor foundation, a Question 3 I don't know, the total score of more than 800 points in the high school entrance examination is not to mention passing, he can't even get 300% in the test, which really delays him from going to high school.
Sending Buddha to the west, and anyway, we also learn together. Jiang Xiao and Lin Heyuan took him with them when they went to self-study.
But Ye Yingying also discovered that Lin Heyuan was treated differently.
He wanted to be gentle and gentle with Jiang Xiao, and he answered whatever he asked. Sometimes Jiang Xiao made inferences, and Lin Heyuan praised him for being so smart, with a smile on the corners of his eyes and brows.
When did the two of them get along so well?
Ye Yingying thought that Lin Heyuan had become a better person, but when he made the same math problem three times wrong, Lin Heyuan looked at him with contempt, aloofness and disbelief, and his tone was cold. Still, Jiang Xiao couldn't stand it any longer, so he taught him the questions by himself, and his expression softened a little.
He was wrong, Lin Heyuan was still the same Lin Heyuan, the flower of Gao Lingzhi, whose eyes grew to the sky, was the first in the grade, but it was different for Jiang Xiao.
However, Ye Yingying is a very generous person, and he does not hold grudges. He is just not suitable for exams, he admits that, and he does not require high scores.
And he felt his conscience and said that if it were him, he would also prefer Jiang Xiao.
Since the beginning of this semester, Jiang Xiao has suddenly become very powerful. He seems to be able to do everything.
For example, when they were going to self-study today, Jiang Xiao made snacks by himself. There were three layers of desserts in a thermos pot. He knew that Lin Heyuan and Ye Yingying did not like sweets as much as he did, and they also made less sweet hawthorn cakes and several flavors of fried dumplings.
The reason why Ye Yingying obediently followed him for self-study, on the one hand, is really tiring to practice painting, and if he really misses the culture class, he will give up all his efforts, on the other hand, the food made by Jiang Xiao is really delicious! Even better than those stalls in front of the school! Even Lin Heyuan couldn't help but say a few words and knew that it was really delicious!
Ye Yingying was completely dead on Jiang Xiao, to be exact, he was dead on with his craftsmanship. He decided that even if he took the university entrance exam, he had to go to a university near Jiang Xiao. It is best to be a friend for life, and eat his delicious food for the rest of his life. of.
Jiang Xiao's craftsmanship has been practiced for decades, and people in love are the most attentive, but the dishes made at that time should be fed to dogs. Now it seems that the craftsmanship is all his own, but it is not completely useless.
Ye Yingying has a big heart. He blows rainbow farts and praises Jiang Xiao for half an hour. Jiang Xiao is in a good mood and promises to bring him more delicious food next time.
But Lin Heyuan's personality is different, he will think more.
After finishing his self-study, he walked home with Jiang Xiao.
In the cold wind of winter, Jiang Xiao heard his voice: "It takes time and effort to make things, Ye Yingying is a little greedy, if he wants to eat, I will order from the restaurant next time, you don't have to waste the time. "
"No," Jiang Xiao waved his hand, and he explained, "I'm used to it. Sometimes what I do and eat is to reduce stress."
Lin Heyuan paused and did not speak, then Jiang Xiaoji heard him say softly, "Jiang Xiao, you are only fifteen years old."
Lin Heyuan is undoubtedly an excellent peer of the same generation. Anyone who sees him will praise him. He is a standard example of "other people's children". But when he met Jiang Xiao, he realized that there are still people living like this. He is also fifteen years old, a few months younger than himself, but he seems to know everything.
"A person who can do everything must have had a harder time than others in many ways," Lin Heyuan continued, "You don't have to do this. If you need anything, you can come to me."
Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at him. It happened that Lin Heyuan was also looking at him. The two of them were about the same height now, and they just met their eyes.
"Thank you," Jiang Xiao smiled, "but as a person, sometimes I just can't stop and want to do something, I'm used to it."
But it still feels good to be cared about.
When the two separated at the intersection, Lin Heyuan took out something from his schoolbag, Jiang Xiao took a closer look, it was a scarf.
"Someone gave it to me at home. I already have a similar one. I don't have any friends, so I'm thinking of you." He wrapped the scarf around Jiang Xiao's neck, a little nervous, "Put it away, it's cold."
It was a camel-colored wool scarf. It was very warm. Jiang Xiao was surrounded by him a few times, covering half of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes, blinking and looking at him.
Lin Heyuan looked at the pair of eyes slightly curved, and then Jiang Xiao's soft voice: "Thank you."
