Double Bracelets

In fact, there are only ten days left before graduation.What Jiang Xijie cares about every day is very simple - how to look at her more and spend more days with her without making Wang Jiyue feel disgusted.Time used to pass like years, but now every day is frightening and crazy.

Two people still live in one room, and they can still sleep face to face on two single beds every day.Wang Jiyue is indecisive, sometimes showing resistance to Jiang Xijie, and sometimes because of pity for Jiang Xijie and letting down her vigilance; the minefield line changes frequently, and Jiang Xijie is at a loss in the end, fearful, as if today's poor performance made Wang Jiyue more annoyed A minute, as if the feeble flame of hope would be extinguished.

She has already got a position at Jardine Matheson, and she will work for Jardine Matheson upon graduation.When they originally hired her, they didn't know that she was a lady from a noble family in the government.I found out later that when she went to the foreign firm to go through the formalities again that day, the attitude of the other party changed from contemptuous to the dilemma of not knowing whether to compliment or not. In the future, her colleagues would treat her like a crown prince who went on tour in disguise.She was too embarrassed to be too obvious in surprise.

Wang Jiyue came with her curiously, and walked out of the building with her. The scenery on the Bund was naturally beautiful, but there was a gust of cool wind blowing. "It's really a beautiful building. The outer walls are all made of stone, and there are so many carvings. It's really a rich Jardine Matheson." "You come with me today," cautiously, "Why?"

"I've heard of a place like a foreign firm, but I haven't seen it before. Can I take a look?" Wang Jiyue was still smiling, but after seeing Jiang Xijie's serious expression, she restrained her smile again, "...wait for two years After I came back, you changed your mind, and I can still come here to find you." "Why are you so sure that I will change my mind? Now it is you who are going to Beijing to catch the exam, and I am the Cui Yingying who stays at home."

As soon as she said this, she regretted it, and the melancholy sadness in Wang Jiyue's eyes also dimmed with this sentence, turning into a gray silence. "...I'm sorry." It seems that she is now Wang Jiyue's hidden disease, which is quite serious but cannot be revealed to others.

"...So you're going to start here as a trainee?" "Well. It's all the same. There won't be anything special." "It really takes a while." "Trainee, staff, lowercase {60 }, capitalized, class two, and finally to the big class. I heard from the second class today that there may be a chance to send someone to Hong Kong."

Jiang Xijie didn't say anything later, she was determined by herself after eating the weight, but she was afraid that Wang Jiyue would walk in the opposite direction.It's good enough to stay put for now. "Hmm. It's pretty good." Wang Jiyue knew that if she hadn't known that Jiang Xijie was determined to stay in Shanghai, she would have persuaded Jiang Xijie to go to Hong Kong together. Maybe she would be promoted in Hong Kong Jardine sooner and learn more a little.But she didn't want to.Now that I know what she wants, I don't want to.

She wants to hide.I want to avoid Jiang Xijie for a while, a distance.Hide and let yourself think clearly.She even cowardly handed over the choice to Jiang Xijie, even with her understanding of Jiang Xijie, and even her entire family, she knew that she would not change her mind and was a person who likes to stick to one thing, but she just couldn't let her go. To put it bluntly, she even wanted to guide Jiang Xijie in that direction.

But that direction is to leave your own life.She can't make a decision now.She can only wait for time to come to sentence.She seems to have always been a person pushed forward by time.

After getting in the car, Jiang Xijie asked her while starting the car, do you want to go to the cafe on Joffre Road last time? "Anyway, I'm not in a hurry to go home today." Wang Jiyue glanced at her, saw her like a lost and injured deer, felt compassion, "Drive the car home, and then let's walk over. The weather is so nice, let's go for a walk." "Then you later," "Can't I call a rickshaw to go back?"

As a result, the two of them strolled slowly from Jiang's house to the cafe where all the white Russian waiters changed overnight.Wang Jiyue thought this was a kind of pity for Jiang Xijie, but she was wrong, every step Jiang Xijie took felt that she was dying. "Are you leaving in June?" "You have asked several times, and you will leave on June [-]rd. The boat will take half a month, and you have to prepare a lot of things when you arrive in Hong Kong. Of course you have to leave so early." "... Arrived in Hong Kong Is there anyone to pick you up?" "Second Uncle and Aunt. When they heard that I was going to Hong Kong, they said that they happened to go to Hong Kong to do business together, and they helped me settle down various things. Actually, I don't really want them to do it for me. Anyway, I should handle it myself." "It would be nice if Chanyue was here at this time." "What's so good about her? Are you afraid I can't speak Cantonese?" "...Is it?" "Bring it She's not necessarily useful either. She speaks English at school, it's fine. I'll learn everyday life soon. You, "

When she reached the door of the cafe, Jiang Xijie didn't rush in, but stood not far from the door and looked at Wang Jiyue in surprise, "You don't have to worry about me. What are you doing?"

I just want to take a second look.Human eyes are actually the best camera lens, but unfortunately human memory will fade.

On the day of graduation, two people sat under the stage.Jiang Xijie had thought about this day countless times.She once thought that after today, she could fully step into the society to experience and build her own life; she had thought that after today, she might be able to be with Wang Jiyue in a better way, It is the end of a stage and the beginning of a new journey; she even thought sadly that Wang Jiyue would give her a romantic breakup today, and if that was the case, she could only accept it.The only thing I didn't think about was this, that's it, that's it.

There is no end and no beginning.

Naturally, both of them had no intention of listening to the speech on the stage, no intention of smiling so brightly, no intention of celebrating with the family members who came to congratulate them, and even less of the intention of talking to other parents who came to cling to the family members.The Jiang family was headed by the old man who made an exception. Except for Jiang Xiyao, all the family members came here. The whole family has nothing to do now. Why don't you come to witness the graduation of the eldest lady—anyway, the first two young masters will not be able to catch up.Wang Shaoxun didn't come, so I don't know what he was doing in Nanjing.Only two brothers, Wang Haopeng and Wang Haoxiu, were present, so it's not appropriate for the small number of people.

Wang Jiyue didn't think so, anyway, her father's absence was something she was used to, so she should feel bad if she came - this time it was really a graduation, not a blind date. "Jiyue." A tired and hoarse voice called her beside her, and of course she knew it was Jiang Xijie who hadn't slept well for a long time, "Huh?" Turning around, with a smile, "Let's take a photo together later." "Take a photo?" "Yes, take pictures." "Yes...do you want to go with your family?" "No...they plan to go to Deda {61} to have a meal later, I want them to go first, we... .Me and you, let’s take a picture. Graduation today.”

She knew she was just thinking about it.Stubbornly worried that she would get angry, she forced herself to change "we" to "me and you", but she didn't know that when she said that, she would also feel pain.

"Okay."

Since Wang Jiyue was in a hurry to leave for Hong Kong, the dormitory seemed to be packed up and ready to be vacated in no time.Even though Jiang Xijie had finished her collection and was ready to evacuate quickly, she was still sad in her heart.The two returned to the dormitory to change out of their academic uniforms before leaving. As soon as they entered the door, Wang Jiyue heard Jiang Xijie's almost inaudible sigh.

"...You change it first." She didn't come in, but turned and left.Wang Jiyue didn't speak, closed the door gently, didn't change clothes, but leaned against the door instead.In fact, Jiang Xijie didn't go far. She heard the door closed, and walked back along the wall silently. The part of Wang Jiyue who is far away from her has warmth.

At this moment, most of the students and their relatives were socializing outside the auditorium, and they were the only ones in the corridor that were quiet for a while.

Jiang Xijie wanted to control her tears. She had managed to control her tears all morning, but now she couldn't control it anymore, so she pressed her forehead against the door and began to cry secretly.It's just that just crying to the point of sadness, suddenly heard the slight sound of footsteps inside, Jiang Xijie, who was afraid of being discovered, had to run to the corner of the stairs to wipe her tears.

"Okay, come on, lady on the left, lean in, yes, get closer. Lower your head a little bit, yes, just a little. Okay, get ready..."

The photographer thought it was quite good. Boss Wang {62} is not here today, and the sudden presence of distinguished guests is also very beneficial. Moreover, it is a pleasure to take pictures of such beautiful two ladies. The photos this time must be very beautiful. It is necessary to put it in the window to be worthy of the beauty of the two ladies.But before pressing the shutter, Jiang Xijie suddenly called a stop, then took Wang Jiyue's right hand, shook hands with her own left hand, and placed it on her lap.Wang Jiyue glanced at her, she was a little inexplicable, but when she heard the sound of the jade bracelets touching, she suddenly understood, she didn't resist in her heart, but felt warm, so she agreed.Then they smiled and looked at the camera together.

White light flashed.It seems like a century has passed in the blink of an eye.

Later, Jiang Xijie regretted not letting Boss Wang make her a color that would never fade.Because her life in the future was extremely "fun" and even exhausted, but she had no regrets, which made this incident the top ten regrets.

Just five days after graduation, Jiang Xijie went to work, and she was extremely busy every morning and evening. Jiang Xize got ridicule materials and made fun of her sister at the breakfast table every day.It's just that the joke didn't work well, Jiang Xijie always ignored him and didn't argue with him.Even Fu Yuanying felt a little bored—their couple deserved to have a bad face, one was responsible for causing trouble and the other was responsible for spanking.

On the morning of June [-]rd, the couple had breakfast together.Only the two who had to go to work got up so early, and the others were still asleep. "What's wrong with her, she doesn't seem very happy. What's wrong with graduating?" Jiang Xize held a fried dough stick in his mouth, and handed the buttered bread to his wife opposite.Fu Yuanying didn't like greasy food at first, but Jiang Xize insisted on making her eat English breakfast every morning to supplement her nutrition, so as to ensure excess nutrition. "I don't know, I think it's been like this since the beginning of the year. Xijie ran to Ms. Wang's every day. Maybe she had a quarrel before, but now it's not just about why, it can't be another quarrel. On the day of graduation, she happily went to take pictures. Didn't Hao Peng tell you anything?" Jiang Xize shook his head, "I only know that Miss Wang is going to study in Hong Kong,"

The husband and wife looked at each other, oh.

Before discussing a word, I heard the sound of downstairs going downstairs, as if someone had rolled down.Zhao's mother shouted downstairs, Miss, please slow down!What is this for!It's still early for you to go to work!Jiang Xijie acted as if she didn't hear, she couldn't see anyone else, she grabbed her clothes and ran outside.The couple who were having breakfast stared blankly at each other, and they didn't know what it was when they heard the sound of the engine.

This girl runs like a debt collector.

Jiang Xijie knew that Wang Jiyue was leaving today.Before, Wang Jiyue told her that the boat would sail in the afternoon and asked her to come back in the afternoon.She also believed it.After she came back reluctantly from Wang's house yesterday by accident, her immature thoughts of wanting to escape persisted, and she wanted to buy a ticket to go with Wang Jiyue.

If there is one last ticket.

The answer was that the afternoon trip was gone, but the morning trip was still available.She also hung up the phone angrily.

Having insomnia until early in the morning, she thought of Wang Jiyue's flickering expression last night, and suddenly felt, don't you be lying to me, right? !Don't you actually take the early morning boat? !So he drove to Wang's house like crazy, and sure enough, the car was not there, so he didn't have to call the door to ask.She drove to the dock like flying, and the boat left early.

The weather is very good, it seems like it will clear up in a blink of an eye.Jiang Xijie simply hated the weather.
