Afraid of getting angry, just drink me

Chapter 21

When he came back at sunset with the barrel in his arm, Wang Laoji felt very comfortable.

Step by step, walking slowly along the lakeside, stepping on the finely crushed stones with the soles of your shoes, and watching the sunset slowly sinking in front of you, this is a wonderful and decompressing thing.

After so many years of ups and downs in the circle, he really needs some rest.

Living in the world of feasting and debauchery for too long, the heart is really too impetuous, every day is luxurious, surrounded by bright flashing lights, it is inevitable to lose yourself.

He was very tired living like this.

So at this moment, the man got a moment of rest and peace.

As she was walking, Jiao Jiao, who was bouncing in front of her, suddenly stopped and stared fixedly at the sparkling lake surface under the setting sun, her eyes reflected some fragments of light.

Wang Luoji also stopped and asked him curiously, "What are you looking at?"

"Dragonflies," Jiao Jiao pointed at the lake from a distance, "Mr. Wang, look at those dragonflies."

Wang Laoji looked along his fingers and saw two dragonflies flying together, their transparent wings vibrated extremely fast, they quickly swept across the calm lake surface, and lightly tapped the water to make small circles. Ripples come.

What an elegant scene.

But what really catches Jiao Jiao's attention is their flying posture. The posture of the two dragonflies is very special. They are connected end to end to form a perfect heart shape, which looks like a tiny love heart flying on the lake.

"It's so romantic," Jiao Jiao's pupils were brightened by the lake light. He took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the two dragonflies. The first thought in his mind was to record this scene and pass it on to him. "Baby" look.

Anything fun should be shared with girlfriends.

"It's so far away, can you get a clear picture?" Wang Luoji teased.

"Let's shoot first and then talk."

The boy stretched out his hands to raise the camera up, and took a few shots at the dragonfly in the distance. Unfortunately, the pixels of this counterfeit camera are too low, coupled with the backlight of the fan, the photos taken are like flying.

"It's so ugly hahahahahahaha..." Jiao Jiao bent over laughingly at the photo she took, "My photography skills are too bad hahahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Wang Luoji was shocked by the low point of his smile.

He looked at Jiao Jiao's smile, which actually felt a little fresh, because few people would smile so recklessly in front of him, every expression was undefended, without any hypocrisy.No mask needed, no disguise needed.

He likes to be with this kind of person.

Cicadas hide in the grass and sing, but people don't feel the noise when they listen.The birds flitted across the lake, their flapping wings startled the autumn water in the lake.

People laugh on the shore, laughing for a long time only because of some trivial things.

"Are they lovers?" Jiao Jiao smiled openly, staring intently at the two dragonflies, his side face blurred by the setting sun into a soft and beautiful outline.

Wang Luoji just glanced at Jiao Jiao inadvertently, and then his breathing slowed down.

The man's heart is like the deep water in the lake, with layers of subtle ripples, and no one knows who threw a stone there.

Some weird emotions were at work, and Wang Luoji felt that something was wrong with him, he seemed to be paying too much attention to that boy.

What to look at, what's so good about a little kid.

Jiao Jiao's smile was bright, but he became more and more displeased because of his contradictory mood. The boy's cute smile suddenly became dazzling, which made Wang Luoji feel irritable for no reason.

So he just replied flatly, "Well, they're mating."

Jiao Jiao's smile was more than half wiped out, and she frowned: "It's not romantic at all to say that."

"There's nothing romantic about it," Wang Laoji snorted, and explained coldly, "It's just two insects trying to reproduce for the next generation. The splashing of water is to produce eggs, and the eggs are born in the water."

Why do you want to keep your tone cold on purpose?Because this will make people appear rational, and he wants to prove that he will not let something go to his head easily.

Such as emotion, dopamine, and the feeling of heart pounding.

Jiao Jiao lost interest completely, and said to him: "Actually, you don't need to be so clear about science, some things will look more beautiful if they are hazy."

"Oh." Wang Laoji responded perfunctorily.

After thinking about it, he still felt that it was not enough, and added coldly, "The mating of dragonflies is also called mating."

Jiao Jiao: "..."

The two sides suddenly fell into silence again, obviously they were able to chat very happily just now, but it ended because of one party's irritability that came from nowhere.

It was only then that Wang Luoji regretted that he had chatted to death, obviously he always captured a lot of happiness from the conversation with Jiao Jiao.

The setting sun in the sky was sinking quickly, leaving only a very small semicircle on the top of the arched hill, but the scenery was still very charming, including the magic of nature and the tranquility of the countryside.

This place called Shabian Village seems to be beautiful at any point in time.

Even though he was suppressing some kind of germination in his heart, Wang Luoji couldn't help being agitated. He looked at Jiao Jiao's side face again, and suddenly called out to the boy, "Hey."

This sound was light and faint, neither sad nor joyful, as if in a boring afternoon, he suddenly turned his head and called out to a familiar person next to him.

No reason, no thought, just call out to the person standing beside you.

But Jiao Jiao still heard it, and the "eh" came to his ears impartially.So the boy turned his head when he heard the sound, and replied shallowly, "Huh?"

They suddenly met each other's eyes, and they looked at each other naturally, quietly and straightly, like two rays of light converging and merging.

No reason, no thought, just happened to bump into the other party's channel.

After a while, Wang Luoji said, "Brother Jiao, add a WeChat."

After these two days, they still haven't remembered to add each other's WeChat. As human beings living in the Internet age of the 21st century, they can't even build the most basic social interaction.

"Ah? Oh." Jiao Jiao turned around in a daze, "Okay."

While opening the QR code of his mobile phone to the other party, he said embarrassingly: "Mr. Wang, you are older than me, so don't call me brother Jiao. If my uncle hears this, he will beat me up again."

Wang Luoji didn't say "yes" or "no". He scanned the QR code, and the WeChat nickname popped up: [Jiao Ye].

Wang Luoji: "...So if you don't call me Brother, I will call you Lord from now on?"

Jiao Jiao panicked: "You're flattering me."

His head is a big yellow banana with two matchstick arms and two red boxing gloves on it.

Well, very... yellow storm.

But Wang Laoji's is not much better. His WeChat name is [Jia Duo Bao], and his profile picture is a pink naughty leopard in Superman costume.

They are both unscrupulous goods.

Jiao Jiao suddenly remembered that the game avatar of his online dating girlfriend was also a naughty pink leopard, but he was not worried about it, after all, this series of avatars is very common, and it is not surprising to bump into them.

This WeChat friend was added just like that, and it didn't really have any special meaning, but Wang Luoji felt like he could chat with each other all the time, and he couldn't help being satisfied.

This afternoon's fishing trip can be described as a fruitful return, of course, most of it is the credit of Xiaoye.If one day he really resigned to Wang Laoji, he might be able to make a living by fishing.

Back at Jiao’s house in the evening, I had a fish feast that lived up to expectations, braised crucian carp in soy sauce, steamed perch, fish fillets with ginger and scallions, stewed bighead fish in black bean sauce, crucian carp soup with milk flavor...

Except for the braised crucian carp dish, which was made by Jiao Hua, who just started to learn how to cook, the rest of the dishes were all cooked by Jiao Jiao, and the taste can be described as unique.

Of course, Wang Laoji still thinks that there is a lack of "steamed fish with coriander", and Jiao Jiao still puts all the fish eyes into his bowl, and kindly says: "The fish eyes are the smoothest, I will give them to you~"

Wang Luoji's appetite decreased: "..."

He stared at the fish eyes in the bowl in a daze, hesitated to put down his chopsticks, and tried to reach out after making up his mind for a long time. At this moment, his mobile phone rang.

Looking at the caller ID, it was a familiar number.

Good table manners prevented Wang Luoji from answering the phone at the dinner table. He got up and apologized to everyone, "Sorry, I answer the phone, you eat first."

"Hey, okay," Gao Ao and Jiao Jiao nodded one after another.

After walking to the small courtyard outside the house, Wang Luoji pressed the answer button, "Hello?"

On the other end of the phone was the policeman in charge of his property case, and every word that followed was the last thing Wang Luoji wanted to hear: the other party told him that his former agent might have fled abroad with the money. may not be found within.

"Fleeing abroad", "difficult to recover", and "the case cannot be closed in a short time", every word was like a heavy blow, which made Wang Luoji's mind buzz. This sudden bad news made him feel deeply. How to feel chilled inch by inch.

That person took away almost all his money, ruined his career and reputation accumulated over the years, left a pile of slanders and frames against him, and just got away with it.

And him?You can only get stuck in the quagmire and can't get out.

Wang Luoji had hoped that the law would give him justice and prove his innocence, but now he suddenly told him that the case might not be settled.

The last hope in my heart was ruthlessly extinguished by reality.

When he hung up the phone, he looked up at the sky, it was a deep, deep black, boundless and endless, very much like his current dark and boundless life.

This kind of day... when will it be the end?
