Chapter 197: Killing with a sister in his arms
Su Chengyi has not seen Chu Qingmian like this for a long time.
During the last auction, she looked a bit similar in the camera, but that was only when she was facing other people.
When I ran to his house, he had returned to his usual smile.
But now he is not only cold and dignified, but also has no polite smile, and is completely indifferent with a slumped face.
Jian Xiao had already guessed the reason. She ignored Chu Qingmian's reaction and said with a smile:
"It's better to come earlier. Now this welcome party is mainly for making friends sincerely. Well tonight, Miss Chu, you should know better than me what the occasion is.
So why don’t we make friends here first?”
After hearing what Jian Xiao said, Chu Qingmian said. Then she slowly turned her eyes away from Su Chengyi, who was sitting on pins and needles. She raised the corners of her mouth just right and replied:
"Hello, Miss Jian, welcome back to China."
Then the two of them clinked their glasses together again, and Chu Qingmian raised her head slightly and drank all the red wine in the glass.
Su Chengyi couldn't help but be a little surprised. The portion in her cup was not exactly what she ordered. It was very real.
How good is your drinking ability?
She drank, so Jian Xiao naturally had to drink too.
After a glass of wine, Jian Xiao finally clapped her hands and started the main topic of the welcome party.
The colorful lights that swayed regularly adjusted with her gestures, and finally focused on her.
The noisy crowd quieted down, waiting for the protagonist to speak.
“Hello everyone, I’m Jian Xiao. I’m new here, please take care of me.
Jian Xiao is very grateful to everyone who can come here, and she sincerely hopes to become friends with you. Friends.
Nothing else to say, I wish you all a good time!”
Jian Xiao picked up the wine glass again and drank it in one gulp.
“Wuhu!”
Xu Yang, the king of cheers, was the first to lead the crowd in cheers.
"Finally, I would like to introduce this guest to you, Miss Chu Qingmian!"
The light turned and hit Chu Qingmian.
She seemed to have been used to such spotlight for a long time, she just nodded slightly and raised the cup slightly.
But others obviously would not let go of the opportunity to make friends with Miss Chu so easily.
It is different from the situation surrounding Su Chengyi just now, which was for fun, or it could be said to be driven by curiosity and following the herd.
Though the people surrounding Chu Qingmian are extremely flattering, they are also very cautious, a kind of flattery with a sense of distance.
Be careful with every word you say, after all, offending the Chu family is not fun.
Su Chengyi silently adjusted her posture, nestled on the sofa and watched Miss Chu start the social mode with ease.
Chu Qingmian responded with a smile while handing him a few sharp daggers at every opportunity.
Su Chengyi couldn't help but smile and raised his glass to her from afar across the crowd.
"Ta is your friend?"
Lin Yishui, who was also watching a show next to him, asked coldly.
Before Su Chengyi could swallow the wine in his throat, he paused for a moment before slowly saying:
"Guess."
The phone vibrated in his pocket. Su Chengyi lowered his head and looked. Lin Tong replied:
"Mr. Yi, are you here yet? I hid in the bathroom."
"Well, come out quickly, on the sofa near the curtain."
"Then am I a god or demon?"
"I have known her for more than ten years, and I have only known you for ten minutes."
Su Chengyi drank some wine and became talkative. There was even a hint of smile in his tone.
Lin Yishui then asked:
“Do we have to have known each other for many years to be friends?”
"Well, that's right."
Su Chengyi replied in a perfunctory tone, stood up slightly, and waved to Lin Tong, who was slowly walking over from the other side.
The expression on Lin Tong's face was more tired than after ten sets of comprehensive science papers, and he trotted over as if he had seen a savior.
“Mr. Yi!”
He sat down next to Su Chengyi and breathed a sigh of relief.
"How long have you been hiding in the bathroom?"
"It didn't take long, I just finished memorizing a vocabulary card."
Lin Tong took out the vocabulary book from his pocket and gave it to him with a smile. look.
You are indeed a role model for our generation. We can all learn in this kind of environment.
Su Chengyi waved his hand but did not reach out to take it.
Lin Yishui on the side was silent on the surface, but in fact he was listening to the two people talking with his ears raised.
She was about to ask the new guy how long she had known him, when she was lightly tapped on the cheek from behind.
"Wasmachstduda? (What are you doing?)"
Lin Yishui didn't even turn his head, pouted and muttered and replied:
"Ichhabenichtsgetan. (Everything. Not done. )"
"IstdieAufgabeabgeschlossen? (Is the mission accomplished?)"
"Nein.IchbinnichtgutinChinesisch, alsowillersichnichtmitmiranfreunden. (No, my Chinese is not good, so he is unwilling to make friends with me.)"
Lin Yishui His tone was pitiful.
Su Chengyi turned her head slightly, and sure enough she saw a young-looking blond woman with a pure-blooded European face standing behind her.
The woman smiled heartily, noticed his eyes, and immediately waved to say hello:
"Hello!"
Su Chengyi smiled and replied:
"Hallo, schn, Siekennenzulernen. (Hello, nice to meet you.)"
The pronunciation was standard and pure, and the woman and Lin Yishui's eyes widened at the same time.
Lin Yishui immediately asked aggressively:
"SprechenSieDeutsch? Warumhastduesmirnichtgesagt? (You speak German? Then why didn't you tell me?)"
"Weildumichnichtgefragthast. (You didn't even ask.)"
Su Chengyi spread his hands and said Face as a matter of course.
Lin Yishui became angry, snorted and turned his head.
“Mr. Yi, you can actually speak German?”
Lin Tong looked at the English vocabulary book he had not finished memorizing in his hand, and suddenly felt a little frustrated.
"Well, I studied by myself for a while."
Su Chengyi nodded indifferently.
His original intention of learning German is very simple.
It was just that when he read a book, he felt that the Chinese translation was too stiff and far-fetched, causing him to completely fail to understand the meaning of the original work.
So I learned a language because of a book.
There is such an important aspect in his character, and Su Chengyi himself knows this very well.
It is generally difficult for others to understand. For example, Lin Tong is completely dumbfounded now.
The book is "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" by Nietzsche.
It was only after he came back from studying German that he understood it after reading it again
——It turns out that it is not a problem of translation at all. The original work is difficult to understand.
"By the way, Sister Lin's hearing aid has been repaired and I gave it to her today. When you get home, remember to ask her how it feels to wear it and whether there is any discomfort."
Su Chengyi suddenly thought of this important matter that he hadn't told Lin Tong yet.
"Really? That's great!"
Lin Tong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and the fatigue accumulated from this party was instantly swept away.
But he quickly thought about the cost, and immediately said seriously:
"Mr. Yi, how much did it cost to repair this? It shouldn't be cheap. I can't let you pay for it. I did it last time If you get the progress award in the mock exam, I can pay you back.”
“It didn’t cost you a cent.”
Su Chengyi said truthfully.
Afraid that Lin Tong wouldn’t believe it, he added some details appropriately.
"You know there is a school girl named Liang, right? Her family is in the medical device business, so she helped this time, and I really didn't pay."
This famous school girl, Of course Lin Tong knew.
Everyone in the school knows that Xuemei Liang has a secret love, no, a clear love, no, a pursuit of Su Chengyi.
If Su Chengyi put it forward so calmly, then the facts should be exactly what he said.
Lin Yishui listened half-underlying to the long conversation between the two people.
She calmed down her mood, then leaned closer and said:
"DukannstDeutschsprechen, soisteseinfacherfüruns, Freundezusein. (If you can speak German, it will be easier for us to become friends.)"
Su Chengyi is right. When he wanted to answer, Chu Qingmian's voice sounded slowly above his head.
".Tutmirleid, wirmüssenjetztgehen. (Sorry, we have to leave now.)"
Su Chengyi smiled, leaned on the sofa and looked up at her.
Chu Qingmian reached out to cover his eyes and said angrily:
"What? You haven't talked enough, have you."
Su Chengyi smiled and said "hmm".
The hand covering his eyes froze for a moment, and when she reacted, she was about to pull it away.
“Just kidding.”
He immediately grabbed her slender wrist and stood up.
Lin Yishui followed the two people with his clear blue eyes, thinking silently:
It seems that it is not friends who need to know each other for ten years, but girlfriends who need to know each other for ten years.
Chu Qingmian wore an jade bracelet today. The two of them pulled and pulled it, and it slipped down to her wrist.
Su Chengyi’s fingers felt cold to the touch.
When she lowered her head, she saw that the color was translucent and the texture was exquisite, which matched her snow-white complexion.
“Your bracelet is very beautiful.”
He complimented casually.
Chu Qingmian just thought he was looking for something to say, and shook her arm to signal him to let go of his hand.
Su Cheng didn't know what he meant, so he had to do it.
Chu Qingmian pursed her lips, took off the bracelet, and stuffed it into his hand.
"Send it to you."
Although Su Chengyi didn't want to pick it up, he might fall to the ground if he didn't pick it up.
The workmanship seems to be at least six figures, so it won’t be a problem if it breaks.
Moreover, he really felt that Chu Qingmian was a good match for him.
"Do you think this is suitable for boys to wear?"
Su Chengyi held it in his hand and gestured, then asked.
Chu Qingmian put the wine glass in her hand heavily on the table and walked towards the door angrily.
Of course Su Chengyi chose to follow, patting Lin Tong who was sitting blankly, and motioned for him to leave too.
Jian Xiao saw the three people preparing to leave, so she walked over and wanted to say a few more polite words.
But Chu Qingmian no longer had the patience to pretend, and waved her hand directly.
"Miss Jian, goodbye."
Jian Xiao's prepared words were blocked, and no matter how diplomatic she was, she still choked.
"Miss Chu, goodbye, I will be well prepared next time we meet. I hope we can have a chance to chat more."
Chu Qingmian didn't react much and just nodded slightly.
Uncle Gao had been waiting at the door. When he saw her coming, he opened the door in advance.
When Su Chengyi also walked out, Jian Xiao gently stopped him with his mobile phone.
"Brother, I haven't added him to WeChat yet."
Hearing these words, Chu Qingmian's back suddenly stiffened, and then his pace suddenly accelerated.
Su Chengyi knew that the eldest lady was really angry now, so she shook her head and replied:
"You can ask Xu Yang for her contact information."
Then he avoided her and quickly chased after her.
Jian Xiao, who had been silent twice in a row, looked at his back. The smile that often hung on the corner of her mouth not only did not disappear, but instead widened even more.
Chu Qingmian angrily rushed to the Maybach parked at the door.
Uncle Gao kept glancing back silently until Su Chengyi chased him out, then he slowly got into the driver's seat.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Chu Qingmian locked the car door with a snap. When he wanted to roll up the window, Su Chengyi raised his elbow to block the rising window.
Afraid of hurting him, Chu Qingmian quickly stopped her hand.
Su Chengyi folded his arms and bent down on the car door.
“Miss, I won’t let you ride.”
"No!"
Chu Qingmian turned her head.
"Forget it if you don't let me take a ride. My home is in the next district, just a twenty-minute walk. Where's the wood?"
Su Chengyi's words were correct. In fact, they were Moral kidnapping.
"The wooden phone doesn't even have navigation, and he doesn't know the way. If you don't send him off, you will see Lin Tong on the list of missing teenagers and children tomorrow."
After hearing this, Lin Tong hurriedly waved his hand:
"No, no, no, I know the road. I can take the bus. When I came here, I saw the stop sign."
"Ahem."< br>
Su Chengyi coughed.
Lin Tong realized later and had to hold back the address that came to his lips and stammered:
"Where is it? Is it at the northeast gate or the northwest gate?"
"From the northwest gate, there is a lake."
Chu Qingmian in the car snorted coldly.
She unlocked the car door silently.
Su Chengyi achieved his goal and opened the car door.
Then he drove Lin Tong to the passenger seat.
“No, you don’t have to take me back, uncle, just take me to the nearest bus stop.”
Lin Tong sat in the passenger seat, a little embarrassed. Find the location of the seat belt.
Uncle Gao didn't say anything, he came sideways and buckled it for him directly.
He is just a driver and cannot make the decision whether to deliver or not.
You have to listen to the arrangements of the young lady in the back seat.
Although Chu Qingmian was in a bad mood at this time, he would not anger others, let alone a harmless and cautious person like Lin Tong.
"It's okay, Mu Mu. Uncle Gao, take him home."
Lin Tong still wanted to refuse, but Uncle Gao had already started the car engine.
Su Chengyi glanced sideways at Chu Qingmian.
She shrank her whole body to the other side, and the spacious seats seemed to be separated by the Chu River and the Han Dynasty.
The dress she wore today was even worse than the one she wore before.
To put it simply - this design does not seem to be worn by humans.
Although the outline is curvy, it is obviously not comfortable.
"Uncle Gao, please send her home to change clothes first."
Su Chengyi thought for a while and then said.
Uncle Gao still didn't answer. He glanced at the rearview mirror, waiting for Chu Qingmian to reply.
But the wheels of his car had quietly changed direction.
Chu Qingmian was indeed a little uncomfortable with this slim-fitting dress, but she didn't want to follow Su Chengyi's suggestion at this moment.
When Xu Yang told her that Su Chengyi came to attend the welcome party for Jian Xiao's return to China, Chu Qingmian actually didn't believe it.
She had received an invitation letter from the Jian family a few days ago, but it was at night.
She had no intention of going at all.
Because she had attended this kind of party eighty times if not a hundred times, and it was really boring.
It’s nothing more than some young men and women from well-off families getting together to drink and play games. After one session, there will be dozens more people on the WeChat list.
Chu Yuanjiang told her a long time ago that if you want to go to such a party, you can go, and if you don’t want to go, just turn it down. He doesn't need his daughter to make connections for him.
But Xu Yang also told her that Su Chengyi came because he called Mu Mu over, and he must have come to save Mu Mu.
Chu Qingmian thought for a while, with a personality like Su Chengyi’s, he would definitely not be happy in such an occasion.
We still have to fish him out.
So I called the makeup artist, made the evening look in advance, and hurried to the scene.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the door, I saw this guy hugging me from one side to the other. I was so happy!
It seems that he really thinks too much. Wherever he is not happy, he is just too happy! ! !
I was still thinking of coming here to save him, but now it seems that I might have disturbed him!
Chu Qingmian looked out the car window and became more and more angry as she thought about it.
Of course Su Chengyi knew that she was angry, but she hadn't thought of any good countermeasures yet.
Unexpectedly, in just a few minutes, the Maybach suddenly stopped smoothly again.
Su Chengyi was a little surprised and looked outside.
The decoration style has not changed, and it seems that it has not left the community yet.
Chu Qingmian opened the car door and explained to the two people in the front row.
"Wood, then I will go home first. Uncle Gao, remember to send the wood home, otherwise Sister Lin will be worried."
I didn't talk to Su Chengyi anyway.
She got out of the car and slammed the car door.
Although the action was decisive, she actually still had hope in her heart, for example, Su Chengyi would follow her and get out of the car.
But after she closed the car door, the car drove away quickly.
Chu Qingmian turned around. There were only intertwined tree shadows on the avenue, and there was nothing behind him.
She was in a daze for a moment, and the sound of the car leaving made her whole heart feel uncomfortable.
"Why are you in a daze?"
Su Chengyi walked out of the car door on her side, then walked around the car to her left.
Unexpectedly, Chu Qingmian stood there blankly, looking at the direction the car was driving away.
After waiting for a long time, he finally couldn't help asking.
The moment Chu Qingmian turned her head and saw him, her eyes turned red.
Only then did Su Chengyi realize that he might have been in the blind spot of her vision just now.
That doesn’t mean she’s about to cry, right?
Su Chengyi quickly reached out and touched the corners of her eyes soothingly.
Who would have thought that with this touch, Chu Qingmian’s tears would fall like broken beads.
“Eh.”
Su Chengyi was a little at a loss now,
“What’s wrong, why are you crying?”
“Why don’t you leave?”
Chu Qingmian’s tears fell fiercely, but There's nothing soft about his mouth.
Su Chengyi thought for a while and took out the bracelet he was holding in his hand.
"Your bracelet hasn't been given to you yet."
Chu Qingmian's tearful eyes were suddenly filled with anger. She gritted her teeth and said:
"I told you to give it away." You!"
"I can't wear it."
Su Chengyi is also very reasonable.
"Then just give it to someone else!
Didn't you hug me happily just now? Then give it to whoever you like as a meeting gift!
You hang up with me in the morning Forget the phone call, you just came to participate in this kind of event, right?
I'm sorry to bother you. If you like to participate so much, I will contact you a few more times and let you participate twenty times a week. Times."
Chu Qingmian became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and by the end she was almost sobbing.
"Who hugged me?"
Su Chengyi sighed and reached out to wipe her raging tears.
“I don’t even know them. I went there because Mu Mu asked for help. If you don’t believe me, let me show you the text message.”
“But you were sitting so close to them, I saw them all!
And you clearly knew I was coming, but you didn’t come to me.
Su Chengyi, you just change your mind when you see something new, and you don’t want to miss Shu! ”
As expected of the representative of the Chinese class, this idiom is used.
Chu Qingmian complained in a twitchy voice, with the ends of her eyes red.
She was in the villa just now Mr. Xiao Chu, who was full of aura, had already disappeared without knowing where he was.
“Don’t talk nonsense, what kind of behavior are you thinking about? ”
Su Chengyi hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his arms to hug her, patting her back gently to comfort her.
“You are.”
Hugging is one of the best ways to comfort Chu Qingmian.
She gradually calmed down and her tears slowly stopped.
But at the same time, she also smelled a pleasant but unfamiliar smell on him.
The aroma of tea mixed with citrus.
"Su Chengyi, are you wearing perfume?"
She asked warily.
“.Yes.”
Su Chengyi was shocked and forgot about this.
"Didn't you drink wine last night? It didn't smell good, so I sprayed some."
This sentence was not a lie, so his tone was also very firm.
The only secret that cannot be told is the origin of the perfume.
He could only hope that Chu Qingmian would not ask what brand the perfume was.
“It smells pretty good. Hmm, straight men also have their day.”
Fortunately, Chu Qingmian was easily convinced.
"You just drank several glasses of wine, are you okay?"
It would be wrong to say too much, so Su Chengyi quickly changed the subject.
"Hee hee, what I drank was grape juice! Can't you tell?"
Chu Qingmian smiled slyly, with wet tears still on her face, but she was He became proud of his little cleverness.
Okay, are you not angry anymore? "
Su Chengyi tried to make her stand up straight, but Chu Qingmian refused and buried her face in his chest again.
"She's angry. "
"Go back and change clothes. ”
Su Chengyi touched her lower waist. The material of the skirt was still very high-end, but the design was too anti-human.
Fortunately, Chu Qingmian is thin. If she were any fatter, she probably wouldn't be able to fit into it.
“You stay with me.”
Chu Qingmian raised her face to look at him.
Su Chengyi paused and wanted to refuse.
As if she guessed what he was going to say, Chu Qingmian immediately reached out and grabbed his finger, shaking it coquettishly.
"You stay with me. My parents are not at home. If you stay with me, I won't be sad."
"Why are you sad?"
Su Chengyi held her hand in her hand. hand.
“What do you think!”
Chu Qingmian snorted, and began to act coquettishly.
"I don't care, you have to stay with me. I'll take you to see the puppy later."
"That's a big dog."
"It's a puppy!"
Chu Qingmian saw that his tone softened a bit and no longer contained a hint of rejection, so she smiled with satisfaction.
Even a truly stone-hearted person may not be able to say any words of rejection to such a bright and healing smile.
Su Chengyi sighed and had no choice but to let her go.
