Chapter 8 Secret 2
The continuous rain made the air damp and stagnant. Jiang Yichen lay on the bed, huddled under the quilt, counting the raindrops falling from the eaves.
It's no fun being sick.
Just as he was thinking about it, his phone rang suddenly. It wasn't a phone call, but the remote visual unlocking function of the smart door lock downstairs was sending out a reminder.
Jiang Yichen got up from the bed, and saw Liang Xiaodou's gloomy face asking for the bill from the camera, he tapped the button on the phone screen with some fear, and opened the door for him.
Not long after, the sound of footsteps climbed from the first floor to the second floor, and Jiang Yichen only heard Liang Xiaodou shout: "Where is he? Where is he?"
He hurriedly made a sound, and just about to open his mouth, he coughed because of his unsteady breath. Liang Xiaodou pushed the door open, threw the newly bought medicine in his hand on the bed, and walked over to pat Jiang Yichen on the back resentfully.
"You said you, why don't you just take a picture? You can catch a cold and stay in bed. I think you can just wrap yourself in a cocoon and be a baby."
Jiang Yichen leaned against the head of the bed, seeing that Liang Xiaodou kept taking medicine and handing water despite his distaste, he just smiled.After obediently taking the medicine, Liang Xiaodou made a summary.
"In the future, I will give you medicine as a housewarming gift."
Jiang Yichen waved his hands, his smile was indeed a little weak, "I probably didn't catch a cold." The suit jacket that was full of temperature that day was warm.
"Just the night at the bar." Jiang Yichen took another sip of warm water, smacked his mouth, and said, "I used my ability once."
"What?" Liang Xiaodou, who was about to sit down, jumped up instantly, "Are you crazy? Those low-level shrimp soldiers and crab generals, what ability do you use against them?" After recalling it, Liang Xiaodou was a little inexplicable, "When did you use it?" Ability? Why can’t I remember? When I did the splits?”
After glaring at Liang Xiaodou harmlessly, Jiang Yichen said indifferently: "I only used my voice that time in the bar, and that person was not very intelligent and was easily influenced, so I hardly took any effort."
"Oh, you have a sense of proportion." Liang Xiaodou breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down slowly.
Jiang Yichen blinked, seeing that he had just sat firmly on the chair, and said: "I was in the bathroom of the hotel that day, and I used my ability again by accident."
Liang Xiaodou jumped up this time, turned around and walked out.Jiang Yichen called him several times, but he didn't stop him.
Hey, why is he so angry?
The sound of footsteps that shook the villa three times spread from the second floor to the first floor, and from the first floor back to the second floor.
Sitting on the bed, Jiang Yichen saw Liang Xiaodou holding a stack of clothes hangers in one hand, carrying colorful clothes, and a big bag in the other hand, and he didn't know what was stuffed inside.
Is this planning to commit a murder?
Throwing the clothes and packages on the bed, the packages were loosely tied, all this tossing was scattered on the bed, Liang Xiaodou didn't care about those, opened the closet and began to hang clothes in it one by one.
Plain long skirt, lace blouse, flowery skirt with open back, Jiang Yichen glanced down at the wig rolled down to his legs.
"What are you doing? Are you moving too?"
Liang Xiaodou glared at him fiercely, "Since you don't plan to take your life, I'm still worried about what kind of stimulation you will receive. These are congratulatory gifts from the people in the studio when they heard about your move. You should keep them and digest them well."
Jiang Yichen poked the wig with his eyes, "Is this also a congratulatory gift?"
Breathing through his nostrils, Liang Xiaodou stuffed all the remaining miscellaneous things into the cabinet, and finally closed the cabinet door forcefully, turned around and pointed at Jiang Yichen and said, "Wei Wei said, these clothes are all your size, let me You try them one by one, take photos and send them to her. She wants to find inspiration for the release promotion of her next work.”
Puchi burst out laughing, Jiang Yichen raised his eyebrows at him, and cast a weak and pitiful wink, "Why, are you going to leave me and leave like this?"
Liang Xiao didn't fight in one place, and said angrily: "Don't do this with me, has your trick worked on me?"
Immediately returning to normal, Jiang Yichen spread his hands, "So, let me finish my sentence."
Liang Xiaodou sat on the chair angrily, with his long legs stretched out on the edge of the bed, as if you said I was listening impatiently.
Knowing that he was only worried about himself, Jiang Yichen smiled and continued: "I used my ability on Huaxun's President Nie because I thought he was a little strange."
"Wait," Liang Xiaodou frowned, raised his hand to interrupt him, "You mean Huaxun? Mr. Nie?"
"Yes, Nie Shenxing, do you know him?"
"He was born in Nanqiao. We both grew up in Beixiang. Where did we get to know him?" Liang Xiaodou rubbed his chin and rolled his eyes. "However, I have heard many rumors about him. It seems that he is at odds with the family. Father and son have been cut off for several years."
"It was Nie Shenxing who was locked in the bathroom with you that day? Did you use your ability on him?" Seeing his voice rising unconsciously, Liang Xiaodou coughed lightly, "What do you think is strange about him?"
"President Nie, I met once before. He was completely cold and difficult to get close to, but at that time... I felt that he seemed a little too enthusiastic." Yihong hurriedly defended, "I'm not saying that there are none, but I thought I was a little nervous at the time and might have accidentally affected him, so I tested it with my ability."
"And then?" Liang Xiaodou asked.
"My abilities don't seem to be useful to him." Jiang Yichen tilted his head, changed into a comfortable position, and then confirmed after recalling, "His eyes were clear at the time, and he was indeed not affected."
Jiang Yichen was confused, looked at Liang Xiaodou, and asked, "Why do you say?"
Liang Xiaodou stood up and touched Jiang Yichen's forehead first to make sure he didn't have a fever, then he muttered angrily, "What else could it be? Because you used your abilities recklessly and continuously, and your abilities have weakened. Because Young Master Liang has boundless mana covering you and can resist everything. Because you are always sick and sick, your charm value has dropped."
After covering Jiang Yichen with a quilt, Liang Xiaodou finally said, "Most likely, President Nie is a lump of elm wood, and he is not enlightened."
Jiang Yichen was amused by him, curled up in the quilt and laughed happily.
Seeing his heartless appearance, Liang Xiaodou swallowed back the words he wanted to persuade.It's not that Jiang Yichen is ignorant of the consequences of abusing his abilities, but within the acceptable range, it's okay to rebel once or twice once in a while, just treat it as enjoying a short period of freedom.
You Jiang Yichen thought of himself again, his peach-like eyes were stained with loneliness, Liang Xiaodou was so sad, he sighed, and said helplessly: "Tell me, what did we do in our previous life to become like this?"
Jiang Yichen yawned. Hearing this, he thought about it seriously, and then he said cheerfully, "Probably because we have accumulated too much happiness." He stretched out his index finger and pointed to Liang Xiaodou who was sitting by the bed, "You There are too many blessings in this life, so it is called Xiaodou, haha."
Liang Xiaodou's tabooed name was ridiculed again, not to be outdone, he said: "You are even more powerful, you have become a speck of dust from a star in the sky."
These words really hurt my heart, Jiang Yichen snorted, "You still have the face to say, isn't the master you introduced to my father?"
Back then, when he was graduating from kindergarten, Jiang Yichen had a serious illness that almost threatened his life.Hearing that a good friend might leave him, Liang Xiaodou cried with snot and tears, grabbed Jiang Yichen's father's hand and said, "Uncle, I'll tell you the master who changed my name, you can find him, he Very clever."
Thinking of this incident, Jiang Yichen asked: "Where is the master who changed our names? What happened afterwards?"
Liang Xiaodou was silent for a while, and then he said with great pain: "Listen to my second uncle, the person disappeared in the second year."
Jiang Yichen: ...
Liang Xiaodou: ...
"Forget it, you should have a good rest." Liang Xiaodou patted his thigh, got up and said, "Don't think about what's there, if you're not good enough, be careful, I'll let your parents take you back to Beixiang."
He said what he thought of, frowned and said seriously: "By the way, Jiao Peng, I have told him to go away. Don't worry, the money is not missing from him. He is also considered sensible. He walked away very peacefully. He will not pester you in the future." .”
Jiang Yichen nodded, and muttered under the quilt: "Thank you."
Liang Xiaodou waved at him, "I'm leaving, call me if you have something to do. No need to send it off, your house will tell me that you are welcome to come again."
Jiang Yichen closed his eyes happily.
Heck, smart doors are sweet.
-
Jiang Yichen's illness came and went quickly.He and his department took two days off. The head of the department and his mentor are brothers in the same school. He had heard about Jiang Yichen's illness for a long time, and his concern was palpable. Jiang Yichen must take good care of his body.
In the evening of this day, half of the sky was illuminated by the sunny sunset after the rain.
Jiang Yichen was wearing thick house clothes and a beige shawl on his shoulders. He pushed open the glass door on the first floor, intending to take a walk in the yard.
Staying at home for three days in a row is a bit boring. Although Liang Xiaodou came twice during this period, Liang Xiaodou was so proficient in his studies that he had to reprimand him every time he came, which didn't bring him much benefit. pleasure.
Since moving to the villa, Jiang Yichen hasn't taken care of the yard, and because of the rain two days ago, the weeds that grew wildly had already reached his calves.
These green weeds seemed to have more vitality than him, Jiang Yichen sighed and squatted down.
At this time, there was a sound of a bird flapping its wings behind him. Although it was not loud, it was still very obvious in the quiet villa area.
Jiang Yichen squatted on the ground, turned his head to search, and saw a bird in the corner of the eaves of the neighbor's roof.The bird looks like a sparrow, but it is two times bigger than a sparrow. It is khaki with black spots all over its body, and has a tuft of white feathers on its head.At this moment, he was tilting his neck, as if he was also looking at Jiang Yichen.
Sure enough, the villa area is different, and the ecology is better than 01:30.
Just as he was sighing, his eyes swept away and he suddenly found a tall and slender thing deep in the grass, which turned out to be a mushroom growing.
For the first time in 30 years, Jiang Yichen saw fresh mushrooms growing in nature. He was both surprised and delighted. He walked over to pick the mushrooms, and stood up to take a picture of the flickering sunset.
White as curdled fat, slim.
Jiang Yichen wondered if he could eat it.
He was thinking about this serious question when he heard another sound behind him, this time it was so loud that Jiang Yichen had to subconsciously turn around.
I saw the white-headed bird falling down the eaves. When it was about to approach the ground, it seemed to react and quickly flapped its wings upwards. Finally, it slowly landed back on the eaves.
The bird that fell back to the eaves, as if nothing had happened, stretched its wings and combed its feathers.
Jiang Yichen: ...Silly bird?
Looking at the mushroom in his hand and the countless treasures hidden in the yard, Jiang Yichen nodded with satisfaction.
In the future, if he is bored again, he can go to the yard to pick mushrooms.
At the same time, Nie Shenxing, who was standing in the room, took a deep breath and sat down slowly.
This time, he carefully turned the manipulator in his hand, adjusted the angle of rotation of the machine and the focal length of the shooting, and the picture on the high-definition screen on the computer desk continued to enlarge, and finally it was frozen into Jiang Yichen's happy and satisfied smile.
The afterglow of the setting sun reflected on his face like a peach blossom in full bloom.
