Chapter 28
It was unintentional for Shen Mian to call again, and when she came back to her senses, she heard Xie Qiao's teasing words.
Shen Mian, who made the phone call instinctively but didn't know what to say, paused for a moment.And Xie Qiaoyu here was waiting for Shen Mian to reply to her, both sides became quiet, so they could only hear each other's shallow breathing.
"Xiao Mian?" In the end, it was Xie Qiaoyu who broke the silence first.
Shen Mian hummed lightly, "Sister Qiao Yu."
Xie Qiao said, "Is there something important you want to tell me?"
"Nothing, just, just wanted to ask what you are doing."
Xie Qiaoyu glanced at the person opposite, "I'm talking about cooperation with Mr. Lu, can I call you later?"
It really was Lu Jingchen.
Xie Qiaoyu's words could not be refused, so Shen Mian could only agree, "Okay."
Shen Mian hung up the phone very quickly, which made Xie Qiaoyu frowned. Something was wrong with Shen Mian tonight.
Especially the sentence that Shen Mian specially told her in the first phone call: "Remember, you are not allowed to go anywhere, you can only wait for me to go back."
Did something happen after going to Crane City?
Xie Qiaoyu picked up the satchel behind her and wanted to leave.
But was stopped by Lu Jingchen.
Looking along Lu Jingchen's arm blocking the door frame, Xie Qiaoyu and Lu Jingchen looked at each other and said, "Mr. Lu, I hope you take back what you just said, and I can pretend you didn't hear it."
Lu Jingchen: "Why?"
Xie Qiaoyu was not in the mood to fight a guerrilla war with Lu Jingchen at this time, and asked bluntly, "I wonder if Miss Li knows about this?"
Miss Li is Lu Jingchen's fiancée.
Hearing the name Xie Qiaoyu mentioned, Lu Jingchen frowned: "I don't love her."
"But your Lu Group needs her, oh no, you need the company behind her, don't you?" Xie Qiao said, "I beg Mr. Lu not to make the relationship too rigid. For me, you are a good partner, and I also Looking forward to the next pleasant cooperation.”
Lu Jingchen asked again: "Without her..."
"Mr. Lu, there are no ifs in this world. Even if there are, I'm sorry," Xie Qiaoyu smiled at Lu Jingchen, "I have my heart."
Here, Shen Mian hung up the call with Xie Qiaoyu, and received a call from Shen Xiu in the next second.
"elder brother."
Shen Xiu: "Have you had dinner yet?"
"not yet."
"Then I'll send a car to pick you up."
"Aren't you going to eat at the hotel?" Shen Mian didn't really want to go out.
"Before I came here, I made a guide. There is a restaurant in Crane City that is especially popular among young people. I will take you to see it." Shen Xiu said: "Brother sees that you have been under a lot of pressure recently. I will take you to relax and relax. Don't refuse my brother~"
Shen Mian didn't answer, because she heard someone on the phone asking: "Shen Xiu, who are you calling? Why are you so coquettish?"
The last word offended Shen Xiu, he covered his phone and said to the man: "It's none of your business who I call? Get lost."
That person also knew that Shen Xiu didn't want to be disturbed anymore, so he left the lounge with a smile.
After the man left, Shen Xiu returned to normal, and said coquettishly to Shen Mian, "Come on, Xiao Mianmian~ Brother hasn't eaten alone with you for a long time~" Shen Xiu specially emphasized the word alone .
Although Shen Xiu was clutching his phone, Shen Mian, who heard the conversation clearly: It's really good...
It is true that the two brothers and sisters seldom eat together alone, so in desperation, Shen Mian had no choice but to agree.
What Shen Xiu took her to was a Chinese restaurant, and there were indeed many young people in the restaurant.As soon as Shen Xiu entered the door, he was recognized by several female fans, who took photos and signed autographs, which made Shen Mian mistakenly think that he was at Shen Xiu's personal press conference.
Because it was pre-ordered, the dishes started to be served one by one after arriving at the box.
Someone who always wanted to chat with Shen Mian would look at his phone from time to time when seeing his sister, and was perfunctory when replying to him. Finally, in the middle of the meal, Shen Xiu couldn't hold back and asked, "Why are you looking at your phone all the time?"
As soon as Shen Xiu finished asking, he suddenly realized that Shen Mian's current state was very similar to the heroine in a youth idol drama he filmed a few days ago, so he hurriedly asked: "Could it be that he is dating? It's that brat ?”
Shen Mian stopped it in time: "I didn't have a date, didn't you say that you should put your studies first? Why do you always expect me to have a date?"
Shen Xiu put down his chopsticks, folded his hands around his chest, and asked seriously and seriously: "Since you're not the one, why do you keep glancing at your phone? You don't talk to me properly."
"..." Realizing that Shen Xiu was jealous of a mobile phone, Shen Mian opened her mouth. She didn't say anything at first, and after a few seconds, she said, "It's just that I called Sister Qiao Yu just now, and she said she would call me back later." Come over, but no call yet."
Shen Xiu put down his hands when he heard that, "Then Mr. Xie is probably very busy, and I will call you when he is done." He said and put a dish for Shen Mian, "Even if you are looking at your phone, you can't ask Mr. Xie to give you a meal. You make a phone call, concentrate on eating seriously, and see how thin you have become."
Shen Mian said hello, then lowered her head to eat.
But Shen Xiu didn't let go of the topic of chatting with his sister, and then asked: "Why do you have such a good relationship with Mr. Xie?"
"Ok?"
okay?She thinks it's normal.
"This is the first time for my brother to see that you have been in touch with someone for so long. Before that, you changed friends every three days. And before that, you would never introduce your friends to my brother, but you have Mr. Xie's name on it." My brother mentioned it many times in front of me." Shen Xiu raised his hand and rubbed the top of Shen Mian's head, "I don't know if Teacher Xie influenced you, or you grew up."
Shen Xiu felt that Xie Qiaoyu had influenced Shen Mian, and he could feel the difference in Xie Qiaoyu the first time they met.
When Shen Xiu said that he had grown up, Shen Mian said helplessly: "I have been an adult for a long time, and you have always treated me like a child." Then he said: "The reason why I have been in touch with Sister Qiao Yu for a long time is because Miss Qiao Yu is different from them."
The former friends that Shen Xiu mentioned were those who were either interested in her two elder brothers getting close to her on purpose, or those who liked her money and followed her to eat and drink.These people didn't regard her as a friend at all, they were just using her.
Shen Xiu agreed with Shen Mian's words very much, but when he saw Shen Mian glanced at the black screen of the phone again, he coughed heavily: "Well, brother, can you please concentrate on eating with me?"
Shen Mian laughed, pointed to an empty plate, and discussed: "Then sister, can I ask you to order another dish that was just spherical?"
"Put the phone away and I'll give you some."
"Give me an order and I'll collect the phone."
The two quarreled like elementary school students, and then they both compromised.
After dinner, Shen Mian didn't wait for Xie Qiaoyu's call.
After returning to the hotel, Shen Mian received a message from Lu Jin, emphasizing tomorrow's exam time.
After Shen Mian answered, she went to take a shower, lay on the bed after coming out and reviewed a few questions, and then turned off the lights to prepare for sleep.
Just when Shen Mian was about to fall asleep, the cell phone on the bedside table suddenly rang.
Shen Mian grabbed the phone and connected it in a daze without even looking at who was calling, and then heard Xie Qiaoyu's voice, "Can you send me the address where you live?"
Shen Mian rubbed her eyes: "Oh."
After Shen Mian shared the location with Xie Qiaoyu, Shen Mian woke up from her sleeping state when she heard Xie Qiaoyu give the address to someone in a daze.Opening it and seeing that the phone has not been hung up, he asked aloud, "Sister Qiao Yu, what do you want my address for?"
"If you don't give me the address, how can my sister go to find you?"
Shen Mian sat up in shock, "You came to Crane City? Didn't you say that you are not allowed to run around?"
The joy in Xie Qiaoyu's original words was extinguished by Shen Mian's words, but she still asked with a smile: "Aren't you welcome? My sister thought that someone called because she missed her, but now the person who thought about it came on her own initiative, and she heard a wave The meaning of dislike..."
Shen Mian lifted the quilt and went down to the ground, nervously explained: "I don't mean to dislike you, I'm just worried that it's not safe for you to come here alone. Where are you now? I'll pick you up."
There was some panic in Shen Mian's voice, which warmed Xie Qiaoyu's heart.
"You don't need to pick it up, it's already on the way." Xie Qiao said, "Just wait for sister obediently."
Shen Mian paused when she put on her clothes. After thinking carefully for a few seconds, she sat back on the edge of the bed and stammered: "Then, don't hang up the phone. I'll ride with you in the car, just treat it as me picking you up."
Xie Qiaoyu turned his head to look at the neon lights around him, and with the flashing tall buildings, he let out a chuckle from his throat: "Okay."
The two were on the phone, but they didn't chat.
Shen Mian was lying on the bed reviewing the exam questions. She put the phone aside and listened to the various sounds from Xie Qiaoyu: the car horns when the road was congested, the cries of passing hawkers, the greetings of hotel attendants... and Xie Qiaoyu said softly, "Open the door for sister."
Shen Mian quickly put down the pen in his hand when he heard it, turned over and got out of bed, trotting to the door before he could put on his shoes.When he opened the door, he saw Xie Qiaoyu looking at him with crooked eyebrows.
Shen Mian's heart sank when she saw that Xie Qiaoyu was intact.
Xie Qiaoyu hung up the phone, raised the phone towards Shen Mian, and said, "It's hard work picking me up, do you know if I can go in?"
Shen Mian stood sideways against the wall, making way for Xie Qiaoyu.
Xie Qiaoyu thought that due to Shen Mian's night owl character, she must have called because she was not asleep, but when she entered the room and saw the folds on the bedding and the pajamas on Shen Mian's body, Xie Qiaoyu asked in surprise, "Are you going to sleep?"
It's only ten o'clock in the evening, and this is the first time Xie Qiaoyu has seen Shen Mian go to bed so early.
Shen Mian nodded, "The exam will be at 07:30 tomorrow."
Xie Qiaoyu immediately picked up the small luggage bag on the cabinet, then raised the other hand to rub Shen Mian's head and said softly, "I'm sorry, my sister didn't know that you had an exam so early tomorrow, so I'm sorry for disturbing you."
Shen Mian: "No disturbing, I was just getting ready to sleep."
Xie Qiaoyu remembered that when she called Shen Mian just now, the child's voice was a little hoarse. At that time, she was only interested in asking for the address and didn't pay attention. She must have fallen asleep by then.
Xie Qiaoyu hooked the corner of his mouth, and the hand rubbing Shen Mian's head slid down, his arm rested on Shen Mian's shoulder, and his hand rested on the other shoulder to pinch Shen Mian's earlobe.Feeling the soft touch from the fingertips, Xie Qiaoyu said with a smile: "Then I won't bother you today, I will open a room, call me when I leave tomorrow, and I will take you to the exam."
After Xie Qiaoyu arrived at the hotel, she only wanted to see Shen Mian, so she forgot to book a room.
After Xie Qiaoyu finished speaking, she withdrew her hand from Shen Mian, walked outside, and said as she walked, "Good night."
As soon as the word 'An' was pronounced, Xie Qiaoyu heard the human voice behind him: "Let's open it tomorrow."
Xie Qiaoyu paused, and slowly turned her head to look back.
Then Shen Mian said again: "Don't bother if it's too late, just spend the night with me first, the bed is quite big anyway, two people can sleep without crowding."
The author has something to say: Xie Qiaoyu: Is there such a good thing?
