Chapter 70 Let Me Wash My Hands First
Yu Xi sneered: "I knew you two stinky old men got together, and you didn't have any good intentions. It's not just as simple as letting me take care of your apprentice."
Chen Wenxun quickly pulled himself out: "It has nothing to do with me. It's all Lao He's idea. Knowing that my most precious grandniece likes the same sex, I can't resist it, so I said I want to find the best girl. Look at it." , Deputy Director He thinks you are excellent!"
Yu Xi turned to look at Jiang Yi: "Do you think I'm good?"
Jiang Yi smiled: "Except that the hands are not very skillful."
Yuxi: ...
She turned to Chen Wenxun again: "She thinks I'm good enough, but I don't care if Deputy Director He thinks I'm good or not."
Chen Wenxun stomped his feet anxiously: "You little bastard, why are you so stupid! I only told you to go on a blind date, but no one said that you must agree!"
"I can't do this." Yu Xi lowered his head again to choose dishes: "Anyway, if He Qinan doesn't leave, I won't go back."
"Stop spoiling other people's food." Chen Wenxun pulled her up, "If you go back today, you have to go back, and if you don't go back, you have to go back."
Yu Xi: "Why, the whole world belongs to their He family?"
"It's not about a blind date." Chen Wenxun tugged at her: "It's a problem with the data on the base console, and those bastards can't handle it, so hurry back and fight the fire with me."
Jiang Yi smiled softly: "You go."
Yu Xi patted his hands clean, and pulled Jiang Yi aside: "It's not a trivial matter to have a problem with the console data, I really have to go back."
"Ah."
"But don't worry." The little wolf cub said with a serious expression on his face, "I will never talk to He Qinan! I will never do anything to be sorry for you!"
Jiang Yi frowned: "When did I need you to give me such a promise?"
Yu Xi paused, remembering the words of the hospital nurse—"The beautiful sister is your girlfriend?"
"You have to say it clearly yourself!"
She scratched her head, not knowing how to start such a conversation without beginning or end. Chen Wenxun urged her from the side: "Little bastard, it's too late if you don't leave."
Yu Xi only had time to lean into Jiang Yi's ear: "I'll take your padded clothes away, and I'll return it to you next time."
"Why, do you think it looks good?"
"No." Yu Xi lowered her voice: "It smells like a sister."
******
Yu Xi hurriedly followed Chen Wenxun to the side of the car, and took the key from Chen Wenxun's hand: "Let me drive it, you are old and blind, and the mountain road is difficult to drive, don't bump into any sheep or cattle."
Chen Wenxun got into the co-driver, and Yu Xi started the car.
Chen Wenxun sighed: "You also know that I am old, so you have to step up."
Yu Xi glanced at him while holding the steering wheel.
The old man usually fights with her, why is he so sad today.
Chen Wenxun drooped his eyebrows and said, "An old friend of mine is also engaged in scientific research. He was recently diagnosed with lung cancer. I did the math and found out that we are really so old."
He turned his head and looked at Yu Xi: "I'll tell you, little bastard, if I don't see the new project at the headquarters launch, I will die with regret."
Yu Xi: "Don't be so scary, I think you are in good health and can live to be three thousand years old."
"Who knows which will come first tomorrow or the accident." He asked Yu Xi: "You don't want to accept Lao He's grandniece as an apprentice. If the new project really can't be accepted, don't you regret it?"
The new project is in the period of decision-making hesitation, because there are many difficulties, and it may cost a lot of money to get nothing. The leadership tends to be conservative, and it is necessary to add fire to make them make up their minds.
So Chen Wenxun was anxious to let Yu Xi accept He Qinan as an apprentice, or go on a blind date. In short, he asked He Qinan to go back and tell Lao He about the aggressiveness of Yu Xi and his younger generation. This item is gone.
Yu Xi held the steering wheel: "Of course I'm sorry if I can't make this new project."
But if she does this new project, it means going back to Beicheng, and she regrets being separated from Jiang Yi.
She thought that Jiang Yi must not want to go back to Beicheng.
Growing up in such an environment, Yu Xi has a deep understanding of the words "human words are awesome", so she understands why Jiang Yi has been wandering in several small towns without 4G network in the past six years.
Sometimes people don't need a truth, they just need a target, and then each person spits, it is easy to drown an innocent individual.
What's more, if she returns to Beicheng, she will be involved in blind date and so on.
Chen Wenxun is still persuading her: "I didn't ask you to nod in agreement at the end, just go through the motions, wait until the project is finalized, and then go tell Lao He, I'm sorry Deputy Director He, I've been with your grandniece for a while, It still feels out of character.”
Yu Xi glanced at him: "Old man, so you are so thoughtful, I always thought you were a straight-hearted person engaged in scientific research."
Chen Wenxun was particularly emotional today, and sighed: "When you live to my age, you will know that in life, some things have to be turned around, and they can't be solved by rampage."
Yu Xi pinched the steering wheel and looked ahead calmly: "What if I want to go on a rampage?"
******
Under the tree at the entrance of the small restaurant, Jiang Yi sat down on the ponytail and helped Xiaoxue choose the dishes that Yuxi hadn't finished choosing just now.
Xiaoxue asked: "Sister Yi, is Yu Gong going back to Beicheng in the future?"
Jiang Yi smiled: "It should be."
It's hard to conceal Yu Xi's talent, let alone her own strong desire to explore the blue sky. Jiang Yi could see the light in her eyes just now.
Xiaoxue asked again: "What about you? Will you go back to Beicheng with her?"
"Me?" Jiang Yi tilted her head: "I haven't made up my mind yet."
What is a small town? It is a dusty wall, a dusty mountain, and rusty iron railings on the mountain wall, but there is also a corresponding escape and tranquility.
What is there in Beicheng, there are many high-rise buildings, many cameras, everyone's eyes are scrutinizing, waiting to dig out your bloody past as an after-dinner conversation.
******
In the evening, Jiang Yi didn't blow her hair after washing her hair, and stood in front of the window in a daze.
There was a cigarette between her fingers, but she hadn't smoked it. A little scarlet fireworks couldn't see through the grayness outside the window.
Until a cigarette was almost burnt out, her fingers shrank from the heat, and the cigarette butt fell to the ground.
She stomped it out and picked it up again, and when she threw it into the trash can, the phone rang.
She glanced at the string of numbers on the screen and froze.
Finally he picked it up: "Hello?"
Ye Xingzhou's voice was still so gloomy, as if coming through a swamp: "Hello."
long silence.
Jiang Yi brushed his finger over the slightly decayed window frame, and felt a little bit of pain polished by the years.
Ye Xingzhou was a little depressed: "I thought we would never talk again."
Jiang Yi softly called her with a touch of an adult: "Xingzhou."
Just like the wooden thorns on the window frame have been polished by the years, the pain is no longer sharp. Jiang Yi, with the warmth accumulated over ten years, turned into a river of water, catching Ye Xingzhou's unwillingness and anger that had not yet dissipated.
Ye Xingzhou finally sighed: "Forget it, Duoduo is back, she wants to find you, but she is too embarrassed to call you by herself."
"Duoduo is back?" Jiang Yi couldn't hide her surprise: "How is her illness?"
"Look for yourself." Ye Xingzhou said: "She wants to see you, I can take her to a nearby city by plane, can you meet her?"
"of course."
"I'll send a car to pick you up."
"No, I'll take the bus by myself." Jiang Yi said gently, "Xing Zhou, I no longer have any dependence on you or the past."
Ye Xingzhou paused: "It's up to you." She hung up the phone.
Jiang Yi was stunned by the window for a while, looking into the darkness outside the window, like looking into the depths of a time tunnel.
There were three shadowy shadows, one elegant, one silent, and one dressed in neon clothes and feathers, dancing a dance that he was best at.
What is preserved by time, and what is dispersed by time.Now, finally, it's time to come out.
******
Duo Duo came quickly, and three days later, Jiang Yi set off for a nearby city.
This is not a developed city, and the cafe exudes an old luxury European style.
A long-haired girl sat quietly by the window, with long hands and long feet. Due to her rapid growth, she showed a temporarily uncoordinated slenderness, but unexpectedly endowed her with a fragile beauty.
Just like her long black hair and overly fair skin, Jiang Yi suddenly remembered that she had guest starred in a vampire-themed movie in the United States before, in which there was a little princess hidden in a dark castle, probably This look.
Jiang Yi walked over and knocked on the floor-to-ceiling glass, the girl turned her head and smiled when she saw her, stood up and wanted to run out.
Jiang Yi said with his lips: "I'll go in."
She walked around the revolving door and sat at the table. The European-style fabric sofa with a high back was smelling of old dust.
Jiang Yi smiled and said, "Duoduo, I've grown up."
Dodo pursed her lips and smiled: "Aunt Ran."
It was a pretendingly calm smile, all the tension and shyness were hidden in the corners of the tightly pursed lips.
Jiang Yi looked under the table, the girl's slender legs were secretly hidden under the table and kicked, and the heels of her shoes lightly knocked against the legs of the fabric sofa, raising invisible dust.
Jiang Yi called her gently: "Come here."
Only then did Dodo get up, walked to sit next to her nervously and shyly, Jiang Yi took her into his arms, just like when she was a child.
The little girl grew up gradually, and from the earliest time she could only lean on her chest, now she can lean on her shoulder when sitting side by side with her.
Jiang Yi caressed Duo Duo's long black and thick hair, which was so long that it reached to her chest, like a cascading waterfall.
After all these years, Jiang Yi has only seen one person with such good hair, and that is Duoduo's mother Ye Guanshan.
Six years had slight marks on her and Yu Xi, but it was enough to make a ten-year-old girl grow into a young girl.
Jiang Yi was very emotional for a while.
At this time, Dodo called her: "Aunt Ran."
Jiang Yi came back to his senses: "Huh?"
"You think I don't?"
Jiang Yi smiled: "Of course."
Dodo hesitated for a moment: "Are you really not going back to Ye's house?"
Jiang Yi caressed her hair: "Yes, if I go back to Ye's house again, then your aunt and I will never get out of the shadow of the past."
"Actually, I understand." Dodo whispered, "Aunt Ran, you are very brave. If you hadn't encouraged me to go to America, I might never be able to cure my illness."
Jiang Yi paused.
Is she a brave person?
Duoduo buried her face in her arms and hugged her: "Aunt Ran, you will be free and happy in the future, okay? My mother will also hope this way."
Jiang Yi's eyebrows twitched: "How do you know?"
Dodo was still so young when Guanshan had an accident, so small that it is impossible to have any memory of Guanshan.
"I just know, because she is my mother." Dodo pulled out a necklace from her neck, and the petal pendant that absorbed the sunlight outside the window swayed between her fingers.
The necklace that Guanshan gave to Jiang Yi at the last moment of his life, and Jiang Yi gave it to Ye Xingzhou, and Ye Xingzhou finally gave it to Duoduo.
Jiang Yi hugged Duoduo: "Okay, I will work very hard to be happy, and you have to take care of yourself."
After leaving the cafe to see off Duo Duo, Jiang Yi walked on the street.
The sun came out, and it was so bright that it made people dizzy. The roadside was full of bicycles, and the black seats were also hot in winter.
The small stalls selling fried chestnuts and roasted sweet potatoes are crowded on the side of the road, the big iron stove is burned black, and there are rice flower candies that have not been seen for many years. , issued a sweet taste.
Even though they are both cities, they are so different from Beicheng.
At this time, someone came up to her and called her: "Miss, miss."
Jiang Yi looked back.
A man in a leather jacket handed over a business card: "Would you like to work in our hair salon? You will definitely help us attract a lot of customers, because you look like a former star." He lowered his voice: "Jiang Range."
"Do you know Jiang Range?"
"Don't look at me like this." The man smiled proudly: "I also worked as an apprentice in a big city, and I have watched those dramas abroad."
Jiang Yi shook her head: "I'm not Jiang Range."
"Of course I know you're not Jiang Range, you have a different style." The man grinned and lowered his voice: "How dare Jiang Range come out now, you're a bad artist."
Jiang Yi paused: "I don't work in a hairdressing salon, I run my own shop."
"That's it." The man looked disappointed: "That's a pity."
Jiang Yi walked to the roadside noodle shop and ate a bowl of noodles, which were not as good as her own, but the bulging TV hanging high happened to be live broadcasting the awards ceremony of the TV Festival.
An award-winning actress holds a golden trophy, with tears in her eyelashes: "I am very grateful that I can become an actor. Life is too short, but literary works can greatly increase the density of life, allowing me to experience thousands of kinds of life. ..."
Jiang Yi finished eating the noodles silently, pressing the rough tissue on the corners of her slightly pursed lips.
After waiting for a long time for the bus, it was already midnight when we reached the mountain city.
There was no light outside her small rental house, and it was pitch black. She stepped on the creaking rusty iron stairs, fumbled for the key in her pocket, and was dragged to the door when she reached the door.
The sudden force made Jiang Yi almost scream, thinking that the old steel pipe she was leaning on behind the door could not be used by her at this moment.
Fortunately, the blowing breath made her feel at ease after being stunned: "Child?"
"Did you go to see Ye Xingzhou?"
"I……"
Yu Xi pulled the key from her hand, opened the door, grabbed Jiang Yi's slender wrist and went in, pushing him hard against the wall.
The moonlight came in through the window, and at this moment I could finally see clearly that both Yuxi's eyes were red.
Ye Xingzhou may be Yu Xi's biggest psychological shadow in this life.
It is true that there were many people who made things difficult for her since she was a child, from the children in the same village who threw stones at her to her uncles and aunts later, but at that time she didn't have any worries in her heart, and she never took those people to heart.
In her short life of 27 years, Jiang Yi was the only thing she cared about from the beginning to the end.
Jiang Yi's peach blossom eyes were mixed with tenderness at the moment: "Why do you think so?"
"As soon as Ye Xingzhou appeared in Zhuzhen before, you left with her without a word of explanation, and became a big star Jiang Range whom I didn't know at all..." The angry panting made her words shattered, and the urgency in her heart made her bow her head impatiently Come and kiss Jiang Yi.
The bewilderment of having lost and found again made her kiss reckless and eager, almost breaking Jiang Yirou's thin lips.
Jiang Yi sideways turned his face away, and then took the initiative to kiss the corner of her lips, turning passive into active.
Jiang Yi's kisses were delicate and dense, like the willow wind blowing on the face, with the tip of her tongue lightly picking up, dissolving her fear, resentment, and anxiety.
Yu Xi softened the tenderness, and her breath became another tone.
Jiang Yi chuckled: "Let me wash my hands first."
Yu Xi stood on the spot with his head down.
Jiang Yi turned around, her hand was still cold from the water, and it was resting on Yu Xi's waist, so real and touching.
With the depression of waiting for a day, and the shyness of offering herself last time, Yu Xi wanted to hide.
Jiang Yi hooked the buckle of her jeans with her fingers: "Good boy."
"relax."
The kiss did not fade away, like peach petals blown by the spring breeze, falling on the tip of Yu Xi's nose, the corners of his lips, and wrapping around behind his ears.
Yu Xi supported the wall with both hands.
With Jiang Yi's return, the dull moonlight suddenly grew stronger, pouring in through the window, so thick and sticky that it couldn't be melted away.
What else was the same thick and sticky, burning Jiang Yi's fingertips.
Yu Xi's whole body was tense just now, but now it became limp, almost unable to stand.
Jiang Yi's gestures are so soft, with a dance-like rhythm, varying from light to heavy and light to dark.
Yu Xi was sweating even on the palms propped against the wall, thinking in a trance: Jiang Yi is also a novice, how come Jiang Yi's hands are so skillful?
******
Until the two of them went to take a bath together, and got into the quilt by the red light of the heater.
"It's cold." Jiang Yi stretched out the quilt to turn off the heater, and pressed against Yu Xi: "It's getting cold all of a sudden, isn't it?"
Yu Xi hugged her, buried her face on her shoulder, and turned into a docile little milk dog, like after being scolded by the master for doing something wrong.
Jiang Yi didn't scold her, she took the initiative to apologize in a low voice: "I'm sorry."
"I was too impulsive. I panicked seeing you not around all day, and your phone keeps turning off."
"My phone is turned off?" Jiang Yi recalled: "Maybe it's out of power, the battery needs to be repaired."
Yu Xi: "When you came back, you had the sandalwood fragrance of Ye Xingzhou on your body."
Just as Jiang Yi was about to open her mouth, she took the initiative to say, "I know you didn't go to see Ye Xingzhou, so, is Duo Duo back?"
"Well, I wanted to find you together, but I thought you were too busy these days."
The console data made the base team overwhelmed, and Jiang Yi didn't expect Yuxi to come to her today.
"Is the console problem solved?"
"Well, it's resolved, so I'll come to you right away." She rubbed Jiang Yi's neck twice, and apologized again in a soft tone with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry."
Jiang Yi patted her on the head: "Don't be so impulsive next time."
"How is Dodo? Has the disease been cured?"
There was relief in Jiang Yi's voice: "It's all over."
Yu Xi followed with a sigh of relief: "That's great."
"By the way." Jiang Yi asked: "Why are you so afraid that I will leave without saying hello?"
Yu Xi's emotional reaction was a little abnormal.
She recalled the time when the two were lingering just now: "You said that when I sailed to Zhuzhen before, I left without a word? But," she patted the back of Yu Xi's head again: "Didn't I leave a note for you at that time?"
"What note?"
"Didn't Shu Xing give it to you?"
Yu Xi was silent for a while in the nest of her neck.
"Did you send me a message on my phone the day I went to England?"
"Yes, but you didn't reply, so I thought you and Shu Xing..."
"I did not receive it."
"what?"
"I didn't receive the note you left me in Zhuzhen, nor the message you sent me in Beicheng." Yu Xi's voice revealed uncontrollable resentment: "It's Shu Xing."
"It was Shu Xing who hid the note and deleted the text message."
Jiang Yi paused for a long time before saying: "It's all over."
The past cannot be traced, but fortunately, now, it is the two of them cuddling together.
Yu Xi looked up at Jiang Yi: "You sent me a message at that time, what did you say?"
Jiang Yi bent her lips, her brows and eyes held the gentle moonlight: "I won't tell you."
"Okay, don't tell me." Yu Xi nodded: "I should have said those words to you."
She turned over and got out of bed, took her coat and said, "Get out of my pocket."
"what?"
"You pay."
Jiang Yi stretched his hand in, it was a flat sheet with blunt rounded corners.
I took it out and saw it was a bank card.
"This is my salary card." Yu Xi said seriously: "I am quite rich now."
Jiang Yi just laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Yu Xi frowned: "I don't know how much money you made from filming overseas, but I'm really rich now, and it's no problem for me to retire even if I have money."
"What do you mean?"
"Jiang Yi." Yu Xi knelt on the ground with one leg: "Can you be my girlfriend?"
As solemn as a marriage proposal.
"I have made up my mind. I will resign from the Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology. I will be where you are in the future. I will not do the new project in Beicheng. I will live with you in a small town without internet access and be a rich man."
Jiang Yi was silent for a moment, then handed the card back to her: "I don't want it."
Yu Xi's expression froze: "Can you ask for money from the Ye family, but not mine?"
The smile slowly faded on Jiang Yi's face.
Yu Xi was instantly annoyed: "I'm sorry."
"I did not mean that."
"I'm afraid...you won't accept me." Yu Xi lowered her head: "I'm in front of you, and I'm always not confident."
Afraid that she would catch a cold, Jiang Yi stretched out a hand from under the quilt to grab her: "You go to bed first."
Yu Xi temporarily accepted the card and went to bed, but Jiang Yi turned her back to her, as if very angry.
She panicked, and put her hands on Jiang Yi's waist: "Jiang Yi..."
Jiang Yi's voice was very calm: "Did I get too used to you before? Made you feel that you can say anything and do anything?"
Yu Xi paused.
"Actually, I've known you to be like this since you were 17 years old."
Yu Xi felt guilty and lowered her voice: "What is it like?"
"Like a sword, when you stab it out, you are very impulsive, regardless of the consequences, and hurt others and yourself."
Yu Xi pursed her lips, she knew that Jiang Yi was right.
Why can't she be like Jiang Yi?Just now, Jiang Yi's kiss, Jiang Yi's hug, and even when Jiang Yi was doing those things, she was so gentle and patient, like a river of spring water, melting all her anger and anxiety invisible.
Following Jiang Yi's example, she softened her gestures and shook Jiang Yi's waist lightly: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
"I'll learn to change, okay?"
Jiang Yi's voice was still weak: "Sleep first, we'll talk after waking up."
She covered the quilt, and really stopped talking to Yu Xi.
The author says:
My sister is delicate and soft, so you think my sister has no temper?Innocent.
