In the quiet afternoon, Jiang Ruoxi was sitting in the music classroom, moving her slender fingers on the black and white keys, playing melodious music one after another. It would be nice to live such a peaceful life without putting any pressure on herself.
It has been three days, and she is still living her life, and so is Leng Yan. He will come back when he wants to. It doesn't matter to her if he doesn't come back. It doesn't matter if he comes back early or late, but she knows that he has other things outside.
Woman, the strong smell of women's perfume lingers on him. Last night, he just came back. After a phone call, he went out again without saying anything. That's fine, she was happy and relaxed.
After the song was finished, she pulled herself out of her deep meditation and looked at the warm afternoon sun coming in from the balcony through the window, reflecting on her body, bringing the slightest warmth.
She likes it here very much. In such an aristocratic school, no one cares about using the school's public piano. She alone, whenever she has time, will come here alone and play all afternoon.
The ringtone of the mobile phone rang in the huge music classroom, disturbing the tranquility of the room. She picked up the white mobile phone, and a series of numbers bounced on it, but she knew who the call was from.
"Hello, Mom." Jiang Ruoxi pressed the answer button.
"Ruoxi, where are you? Let's meet, okay?" Zhao Yufen spoke to her in such a gentle and humble tone for the first time, but it made Jiang Ruoxi even more uneasy.
Jiang Ruoxi paused and said, "Okay."
The two agreed on a meeting place. Jiang Ruoxi put away her bag and textbooks and walked out of the school. This time, Zhao Yufen deliberately chose a cafe close to her school. Her words and behavior were too weird, but Jiang Ruoxi didn't think too much about it.
, sitting in the coffee shop waiting for Zhao Yufen’s arrival.
Half an hour later, Zhao Yufen walked in with a hurried expression, "Ruoxi, I've been waiting for a long time. Sorry, there's a traffic jam on the road."
"Mom, don't worry, please sit down for a while." Jiang Ruoxi couldn't bear to see her panting.
Zhao Yufen took a sip of the boiling water brought by the waiter, turned to her and said, "Give me a cup of green tea."
"Ruoxi, will it delay my class if I look for you now?" Zhao Yufen spoke after she regained her breath, with false concern on her face.
"No, I have no classes in the afternoon." Jiang Ruoxi shook her head, "Mom, are you in a hurry?"
Zhao Yufen hesitated for a moment and said, "Ruoxi, Mom wants to ask you something."
"What's wrong?" The uneasiness on Jiang Ruoxi's face widened, and she actually used the word "begging". It seemed that the matter must be serious.
"Ruoxi, Mom wants to ask you to borrow some money." Since Zhao Yufen asked her out, of course she would speak shamelessly.
Borrowing money? Jiang Ruoxi frowned, "Did something happen at home? Or did something happen to dad's company?"
"No, no." Zhao Yufen took a sip of the green tea in front of her, "Mom owes me some money, but I'm too embarrassed to ask your dad for it. Just help mom for a while, okay?"
"Mom, why do you owe money? Didn't dad always provide for your family?" Jiang Ruoxi was puzzled.
Zhao Yufen sighed, "Ruoxi, stop asking, just say, can you help mom? If you are blaming me for marrying you to Leng Yan, to a man you don't love, you don't want to help mom."
If you're busy, then mom will go." As he spoke, he stood up.
"Mom." Jiang Ruoxi took her hand, "How much does it cost?" She asked softly.
Zhao Yufen sat down again and stretched out five fingers, "Fifty thousand."
"Fifty thousand?!" Jiang Ruoxi's face was full of shock, "Mom, how can I have so much money?"
"You don't, but your husband does! Yan is so rich and he treats you so well. He gives you pocket money, right?" Zhao Yufen had a wishful thinking.
Jiang Ruoxi was silent. He offered it, but she refused. Since the two of them didn't need to have anything to do with each other, she wouldn't use him at all.
"What's wrong? Didn't he give it to you?" Seeing Jiang Ruoxi's silence, Zhao Yufen asked closely, "As long as you ask, he will help. Fifty thousand yuan is nothing to him."
"Mom, I'm afraid I can't help you. You'd better tell dad!" Jiang Ruoxi didn't have much money from her part-time job. She was asked to come up with 50,000 yuan. Where would she get it?
When Zhao Yufen heard that Jiang Ruoxi refused to help, her face immediately darkened, "I knew you were blaming me for not even helping me. If your father and I could get this money, what would I do to you! Since you
If you don't want to borrow me, forget it, or I'll be beaten to death by your father." As he said that, he stood up angrily.
As soon as she took a step forward, Jiang Ruoxi softened her heart and said, "Mom."
Zhao Yufen turned to look at her without saying a word, waiting for the second half of Jiang Ruoxi's words.
"Mom, I'll borrow it, but please give me some time, okay?" Jiang Ruoxi pursed her lips and agreed to Zhao Yufen.
"Ruoxi, did you really agree to lend me the money?" Zhao Yufen immediately had a smile on her face and sat back down.
Jiang Ruoxi nodded, "Yeah, but I don't have that much now. Just give me a little more time, and I'll give it to you when the money is enough."
"Okay, okay, but don't take too long. I have something to do, so I'll leave first." Zhao Yufen walked out of the coffee shop with a smile. As soon as she reached the door, she took out her mobile phone, "Ruoya, where is my precious daughter?
? Go shopping with mom." After hanging up the phone, he turned around and glanced at Jiang Ruoxi, who was sitting in a daze, with contempt and contempt in his eyes. Then he turned around and walked to the car beside him, got in the car and drove away quickly.
.
Jiang Ruoxi sat quietly, thinking about what Zhao Yufen said just now, where would she get 50,000 yuan? However, no matter how difficult it was, she would not open her mouth to Leng Yan.
After a long time, she paid the money, left the cafe, and walked on the road. The sky had darkened. Jiang Ruoxi sat alone on a wooden chair on the roadside, watching people and cars coming and going, and picked up
He picked up his cell phone and dialed a number, "Hello, Boss Li? I'm Jiang Ruoxi. I want to ask, does your piano store still need a piano teacher now? Oh, no! It's okay, it's okay, thank you." He hung up.
Phone, Jiang Ruoxi looked frustrated, looking at the phone in her hand, the piano store where she used to work as a part-time piano teacher didn't need it anymore, so what should she do?
It wasn't until Leng Yan's call came that she realized it was already very late, "Hello."
"Why don't you go home so late?" Leng Yan sat on the sofa in the living room, his legs naturally crossed. There was only a standing lamp turned on in the huge living room, and the whole room was filled with a hazy and soft atmosphere.
The light shines on his side face, and his handsome facial features appear more three-dimensional and profound, but his beautiful thick eyebrows are tightly knitted, and he holds a cigarette between his slender fingers and smokes it anxiously, with a look of displeasure on his face.
When he returned to the apartment and didn't see Jiang Ruoxi, he was unhappy. Was it because he couldn't see her? Or was he worried? As he smoked one cigarette after another, layers of confusion rose in front of his eyes.
