On the way back to the office, Qiao Xinwei kept thinking about Yang Jiajia's words. She also felt sorry for Jing Shang, but she was sorry. She couldn't do anything and was unwilling to do anything. Pretending not to know anything was the only way to treat Jing Shang.
Still the best.
With a "ding" sound, the elevator door opened. Qiao Xinwei lowered her head and walked out. Suddenly, she was blocked by a big man in front of her. She walked to the left, but the man also blocked the door to the left. When she went to the right, he also walked to the right.
Right. She raised her head suddenly and said, "Mr. Gu, why is it you? Why are you always blocking my way?"
Gu Rongchen pointed to the floor sign, "This is the first floor below. Do you want to drive out? Didn't you say you won't drive when the weather is bad these days?"
Qiao Xinwei suddenly realized that she was so dizzy after sitting for a long time with a hug on her back. She smiled sheepishly and stepped back into the elevator, "Haha, I got distracted."
Gu Rongchen also approached the elevator, pressed the office floor button, and asked her: "What are you thinking about?"
Qiao Xinwei said lightly: "It's nothing, just a little family matter."
"I saw you at Fuji at noon. I saw that the girl sitting opposite you was crying and sighing, so she didn't say hello to you. Do you need any help? Just say it."
"Thank you, it's really no need. She is my brother's girlfriend, and they have some conflicts."
"Oh, that's it. I can't help you with emotional matters, but don't think too much. It's a happy event if it works, and it's a must if it doesn't work. Look at me, I'm not looking for it.
I've been searching, searching, searching, but I haven't found anything yet."
Qiao Xinwei couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Gu, you are so funny."
"Haha, I feel relieved when I see you smiling. The way you frown makes me anxious and angry."
This sentence was a bit ambiguous, and Qiao Xinwei didn't know how to answer him. Fortunately, the elevator arrived quickly, "Oh, there are a lot of things to do in the afternoon. Mr. Gu, I'm busy. Let's talk again when we have time."
Gu Rongchen waved and smiled naively, "Okay."
Back in the office, she was thinking about Yang Jiajia and Jing Shang, and wondered what would happen if Yang Jiajia went to find Jing Shang. She was not big-hearted and could not expect everyone to be well, but she hoped that all her relatives would be well.
Before getting off work in the afternoon, I received a text message from Yang Jiajia - "We are together again. He has you in his heart, but he has me in his life. I hope you can erase today's conversation with an eraser and never let him
Know that I have looked for you, thank you, be grateful. Delete this message and do not reply."
Qiao Xinwei was extremely pleased. Yang Jiajia was really rare. She prayed silently for them, hoping that she would be able to drink their wedding wine soon. It was time for her brother to marry a sister-in-law and go home.
A few days later, a new round of cold air came to the capital, and it snowed heavily all day and night. The thick snow slowed down the pace of the entire city. Road traffic accidents occurred frequently, and water, electricity, and heating were cut off.
The main content of daily news.
Qiao Xinwei came out of the shower, her hair wrapped in a large absorbent towel, and she was wearing a soft bathrobe with her calves exposed. The warmth in the room was in sharp contrast to the ice and snow outside.
She walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the night scene outside. The community across the road had a power outage. It was still dark at the moment. The entire street facing the street was without power. Except for the street lights, all the shops on the street were still on.
They are all dark.
I don’t know if the heating supply has been cut off in a home without water or electricity. It’s too cold today. How can I endure it without heating at home?
"Hey, Mom, are you okay at home? I saw on the news that our community has a water outage."
"Yes, the water pipes were frozen and cracked. There was a power outage yesterday, but it came today. Hey, the weather has never been so cold."
"What about the heater?"
"The heating went out during the day. Fortunately, the repair was successful and the supply is now on. What about you?"
"I'm fine with that."
"That's good. Is Jiang Hao back?"
"He said he would come back tomorrow and would take leave until the next year before returning to work."
"Well, it's better for him to rest for such a long time."
"Haha, what's better? This is the only time for him to rest all year round."
"By the way, Xinwei, let me tell you something. Your brother dated a girlfriend and brought him home last time. She is a very nice girl. She is from the same unit as Jing Shang. When Jing Shang was having dinner today
I told you that I want to get married."
Although she was separated by the phone, Qiao Xinwei could still feel her mother's joy, "That's great, next year?"
"Well, we haven't decided on a date for next year. I want to find a day where my parents can sit down together to discuss it, but I'm afraid I won't be able to book a hotel on a good day because of time constraints."
"It's okay. Just pick a good date. Jiang Hao can handle the hotel booking. He knows a lot of people."
"good."
At this time, the doorbell rang suddenly, and it was rather urgent, "Mom, I won't tell you anymore, someone is at home, I'm going to check on it."
After hanging up the phone, she thought that she was still wearing a bathrobe and couldn't open the door directly. She didn't know who would come over at this time. She increased her vigilance and stood on tiptoes to look out through the peephole.
You wouldn't know it, but you would be shocked to see that Chen Jingye appeared in the cat's eye with a bruised nose and face. Not only that, he was pressing his left eye with one hand, and there was blood dripping between his fingers.
"Chen Jingye, what's wrong with you?"
"Xinwei, can you open the door?" His voice sounded panicked, "Ahao asked me to come directly to you."
When she said this, her cell phone rang, and it was Jiang Hao's. She shouted outside, "Wait a moment." She hurried back to the room to find clothes to wear, answered the phone and turned on the speakerphone, "Hello.
?”
Jiang Hao didn't have time to explain more and said quickly: "Xinwei, Chen Jingye will go to our house to give you a document. You take it and put it away. I will go home to pick it up in half an hour. Don't open the document. It is confidential."
."
"He is outside the door now. He just rang the doorbell and it seems that he was beaten."
"Yes, I don't have time to explain to you now. Just do as I say, take the documents and stay at home. I'll go home and get them right away."
"Okay." Although she was curious, she didn't ask any more questions. She already had a deep understanding of the word "confidential". As soon as Jiang Hao said it was confidential, she instinctively refused to ask or study it. Although she didn't believe Chen Jingye, she still
She believes in Jiang Hao.
She put on a set of home clothes as quickly as possible and hurriedly opened the door.
Chen Jingye almost fell down. As soon as the door opened, he lost his support and fell inside.
This still scared Qiao's heart, "Ah, Chen Jingye, what's wrong with you?"
Chen Jingye's injuries were far more than what she saw on the surface. His coat was torn everywhere. Such a strong fabric could be so torn. The only explanation was that he was dragged by a car.
Chen Jingye pressed his left eye with one hand, and tremblingly took out an envelope from the inner pocket of his coat with the other hand, "Take it and give it to Ah Hao."
Qiao Xinwei quickly took it. The seal of the envelope was sealed with wax. There was nothing written on the envelope, only the blood left on Chen Jingye's hand. She held the envelope tightly in her hand and supported Chen Jingye.
Jingye said: "Okay, I will transfer it to him. What's going on with you? Should I take you to the hospital?"
Chen Jingye shook his head and struggled to push himself up. He held the door, looked at the blood stains on his body, and warned: "Wipe the blood on the door clean. Remember, I have never been here."
With that said, he stumbled away.
"Ah? Hey, Chen Jingye, where are you going like this? Hao said he would be home in half an hour, why don't you wait for him?"
Chen Jingye shook his head, pressed the elevator button and walked in. There were few people coming in and out at night, so the elevator stopped on this floor.
Qiao Xinwei didn't know what happened, but she looked at the blood stains on the envelope and knew it was serious. She looked at the blood stains on the security door and wiped it clean many times as Chen Jingye said.
Time passed by minute by minute. At this time, seconds seemed like years. She almost looked at the time on her phone and waited for Jiang Hao.
As soon as she heard the sound of the key, she quickly opened the door, "Jiang Hao??" She rushed forward and hugged his neck, "Are you okay?"
Jiang Hao also hugged her tightly, kissed her ear and said, "It's okay, go in and talk."
He didn't let go of his hand, carried her into the house, closed the door behind his back, and locked it deliberately.
"Where are the things Chen Jingye gave you?"
Qiao Xinwei took out the envelope from the shoe cabinet and said, "Here, this is it."
Jiang Hao glanced at it and immediately put it in his pocket without saying anything. He held her face and kissed her lips deeply, "Don't be afraid, it's nothing. You stay at home and I'll go there."
The troops will come back."
Qiao Xinwei's heart was beating wildly. How could she not be afraid? Chen Jingye was so injured that his left eye was bloody and bloody, and he might be blind. But she knew she couldn't cause trouble to Jiang Hao at this time.
"Will you be back soon?"
Jiang Hao nodded solemnly, "I'll send the things to the army and I'll be back soon."
"Are you still going when you come back?"
"I'll stay with you when I get back. Don't be afraid if I don't go. Just trust me, okay?"
Qiao Xinwei gritted her teeth and nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Jiang Hao couldn't bear it. He hugged Qiao Xinwei tightly for a long time. He saw her pale face and trembled when he heard her voice. He didn't want such dangerous things to hurt her.
She was involved, but only by sending the things here would it be safe, and only by letting her keep the things could he feel 100% assured and trustful.
"Xinwei, how about you come with me?"
Qiao Xinwei nodded like garlic, "Okay," she tied her wet hair back casually, turned around, took a down jacket from the hanger, put it on, and put on a hat, "Let's go."
Jiang Hao held her hand tightly and smiled. His wife was stronger and braver than he imagined.
