Jiang Ning and Mao Yun looked at each other. She stood there, lowering her head in shame.
The room was quiet for a while. Jiang Ning put down her bag and entered the kitchen.
She once suspected that Ji Linran was doing it on purpose.
He knew that Li Zeyu was here, so he deliberately made things difficult for her and prevented her from contacting Li Zeyu.
A woman's intuition, but Ji Linran seemed to treat her only as a friend.
He couldn't eat instant noodles, so Jiang Ning made dry noodles and added some crispy pork and some green vegetables.
When the noodles were ready, Jiang Ning's cell phone rang.
"Someone's calling."
Mao Yun reminded, receiving an unkind look from Ji Linran.
Jiang Ning didn't see it and called Mao Yun to come in and serve the rice, but he didn't answer the phone either.
After looking at the phone, he said to Ji Linran: "I have something to do, you guys eat slowly."
When she was about to go out, Ji Linran called her.
"Jiang Ning."
Jiang Ning turned around, a trace of doubt flashing across her delicate face.
He didn't speak anymore in the room, but motioned her to go outside to the corridor.
After closing the door, Ji Linran acted like an elder: "As a friend and a boss, I still want to advise you that it will not be good for you to get between Huo Mingyang and Li Zeyu."
"Teacher Ji misunderstood. Huo Mingyang and I are just ex-partners and have nothing to do with each other now."
"Then, he came to see you that day."
"Maybe it's a convulsion."
"So, as for Li Zeyu, I heard that he has a fiancée, wouldn't you..."
"My fiancée is just a cover. However, I still want to thank Teacher Ji for reminding me that I am an adult and I am sober and measured."
"That's good, leave early and come back early."
After Ji Linran finished speaking, he returned to the room.
Jiang Ning stood still for a few seconds and went straight to the elevator without going back to her room.
Li Zeyu found the car somewhere and waited for her outside the door.
As the car left the hotel and passed the set boundary, it was completely dark.
Jiang Ning felt a little strange. She lowered the window and took a look outside. Because she was far away, she couldn't see clearly what was in the distance.
"What are you looking at?"
Seeing that she was worried, Li Zeyu couldn't help but ask.
Jiang Ning closed the car window again and said, "I remember there was a night scene, but why did the crew's headlights go out?"
"Maybe there's a power outage."
Li Zeyu said, holding her hand and giving her some warmth in this cool night.
After having dinner in the town, Jiang Ning knew that the road was not easy to get around, so she directly agreed to stay at an antique-looking inn in the town.
Song Nuan opened the video. It was already past eleven o'clock. She had just taken a shower and was drying her hair.
"My dear, have you changed hotels?"
"Changed."
Jiang Ning took her cell phone and took photos around the room.
"Wait a minute, I saw someone in the bathroom. Oh, you won't finish Teacher Ji, right?"
Song Nuan was startled over there, and Jiang Ning rolled her eyes and flew over, putting her phone on the table, "How is it possible that they agreed to be a couple, unless I want to die."
After that, turn on the hair dryer and continue blowing your hair.
Because the noise was too loud, Song Nuan consciously stopped saying anything.
When she stopped, Song Nuan said seriously: "Let me tell you something, I went back home yesterday."
"So, have you reconciled with your parents?"
Jiang Ning put her cell phone on the window sill and combed her hair with her head tilted.
"No, I just went back to pick up clothes and went to the supermarket. But guess who I met?"
"Snapped!"
There was a sudden noise from behind.
Jiang Ning turned her head and saw that Li Zeyu had a bath towel wrapped around his waist. It turned out that he accidentally knocked himself on the Taishi chair at the door. At this time, because of the pain in his toes, he was sitting there to calm down.
Jiang Ning wanted to go over and comfort him, but the video was still on, so she could only say to Song Nuan: "Well, Nuan Nuan will chat another time."
Before the other party could respond, she had already clicked to hang up.
"Are you okay? Where are you injured?"
Jiang Ning knelt down and Li Zeyu raised his head, his eyebrows deep.
"It's okay."
When the two went to bed, Li Zeyu wanted to work online.
Jiang Ning deliberately kept herself away, but instead was trapped in his arms and had to face the densely packed words in his notebook.
"Aren't you afraid that I am a spy spying on your Kainet information?"
"That doesn't matter. The worst I can do is marry the spy back home."
Jiang Ning's cheeks grew hot when the word "marriage" was mentioned.
She didn't speak anymore, and Li Zeyu probably didn't notice her weirdness. His whole mind was on the files on the computer.
"I am sleepy."
Jiang Ning was a little uncomfortable with the sudden silence and could only make excuses.
After lying down, Li Zeyu's big palm kept rubbing her face.
Jiang Ning felt itchy and moved away.
During the filming during the day, it was really tiring to lie down.
But there was someone beside her, and she couldn't sleep again.
I closed my eyes forcibly, but my mind was very confused.
Suddenly thinking of what Song Nuan said in the video, she turned on her phone and sent a WeChat message: Nuan Nuan, who did you say you saw just now?
Song Nuan: A former servant in your family was called Mama Liu.
Jiang Ning: She is working in someone else's house now, but you have to travel so far, and the supermarket over there is not close to your home.
Jiang Ning was referring to the one she went to last time, but Song Nuan was not talking about the same one.
Song Nuan: It's not far, just across the road from my house.
Jiang Ning thought for a while and replied: Are you sure you are right? Even if she is an old lady, even if she has good legs and feet, it is a bit unreasonable for her to go shopping there.
Song Nuan: The strange thing is that she hides away from me when she sees me.
Jiang Ning: Hide? Why?
Song Nuan: I don’t know. The look in her eyes seemed like she was afraid of me.
Jiang Ning held her phone and stared at the text for a long time, lost in thought.
In the past, Song Nuan would often go to Jiang's house, and Liu's mother was very kind to her.
So why is this incredible thing happening now?
"Who are you talking to, so focused?"
There was a sudden sound from above behind him, and Jiang Ning dropped her cell phone into her neck.
She raised her eyelids, glanced at Li Zeyu, and quickly picked up her phone.
Song Nuan has replied to three messages in a row:
When she went to the supermarket there, she carried a vegetable basket with a few cucumbers in it, but the supermarket did not sell vegetables.
It felt quite mysterious. She avoided me and I ignored her. When I left the supermarket, she was still standing at the door of the supermarket looking at me, her eyes were a bit penetrating.
Ning Ning, I never noticed that Liu’s mother would look at people like that before. It’s so scary to think about it now.
Jiang Ning hesitated, moved her phone, and typed in the dialog box: Next time I meet her, I'll ask. Maybe it's because she's older, giving people the wrong impression.
After replying the message, turning off the phone, Jiang Ning lay down and said, "Chat with Song Nuan. She told me that it felt weird to meet a former servant of mine."
"Jiang family?"
Jiang Ning raised her eyes, and the warm light reflected her face, which was gentle and beautiful, and her eyes were clear and sparkling.
Li Zeyu watched, his Adam's apple slid up and down, swallowed, and looked away.
…
Jiang Ning slept until midnight and was woken up by Li Zeyu.
She said vaguely: "There is no such thing."
"Don't worry, I brought it."
A bewitching voice rang in his ears. He had just taken off her underwear when suddenly there was a loud banging on the door: "Bang, bang, bang!"
In the middle of the night, the dazed Jiang Ning suddenly woke up.
