Scum smell

Compared with Zhang He who single-handedly turned Ji Yao out of the closet into "a letter from a left-behind child", and Wen Lin's coming out as if he had cut a piece of steak is an understatement, Jiang's here is another Fan situation.

When Jiang Qiutong took the suitcase back to the house he bought, when he opened the door, he found a person standing in the middle of the living room, drinking water with his head up.

His sister Jiang Chunshui.

Seeing him coming back, Jiang Chunshui paused for a moment, looked him up and down, raised his eyebrows, and showed an inexplicable smile on Mingyan's face: "Why, you got dumped?"

"..." Jiang Qiutong remained expressionless, "Why are you here?"

Jiang Chunshui came to City A because he had a lot of free time recently, so he came to find friends to play.She is a divorced single mother. A while ago, her baby girl was taken away by her father for a few days. Without the little devil, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and ran out quickly.Then thinking that her younger brother even used tricks such as selling miserably, and directly sneaked into the little boy's house, she expropriated her younger brother's house without hesitation.

In the end, she didn't expect Jiang Qiutong to leave the house so quickly. She wished she could set off firecrackers to celebrate.

Jiang Qiutong couldn't even pull out a smiling face, he silently opened the luggage and laid out his things one by one, his face was always blank.Seeing him like this, Jiang Chunshui's schadenfreude was gone, she kicked Jiang Qiutong's heel: "Is it really divided?"

Jiang Qiutong pursed her lips and said, "It was just a quarrel, I'll come back and calm down."

"Should I go back to be a dog lick after I calm down?" Jiang Chunshui said sharply, "Originally this was your relationship, I didn't want to get involved, but you came out for him and got beaten for him. Now you have a quarrel, and he kicks you out, even if I am not your sister, but an outsider, I still think this boy is too cruel."

Jiang Qiutong laughed at himself: "You have never seen him be more ruthless."

Jiang Chunshui saw her brother's appearance of falling into a demon, so he was too lazy to say a word.

Jiang Qiutong has a large study room and a well-equipped pottery room. When he is not with Ji Yao, he usually spends his time in these two places.Jiang Chunshui thought that he would go to these two places to pass the time and "calm down". Unexpectedly, after a boring night, he went out early the next morning and went straight into the kitchen when he came back.

Jiang Chunshui was startled immediately. Her brother knew that this man was extremely repelled from the kitchen. Where did that boy come from with such great charm that made Qiu Tong lose his temper?Anyway, she was bored, so she wandered into the kitchen and watched her brother cook.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Chunshui thought that he didn't have such a big face, and would think that her brother was cooking for himself.

"Braised pork." Without raising his head, Jiang Qiutong put the tablet on the stand aside, while studying the tutorial, while holding a knife in a very rigorous posture, he slowly cut the meat.

"It's strange, it's my brother's first time cooking."

"No, this is the second time." Jiang Qiutong shook his head, suddenly thought of something, couldn't help smiling, "——no, strictly speaking, it should be the third time. I have tried to make milk tea once before , but failed."

Jiang Chunshui gave a polite "wow" to show his cooperation.

"Last time I cooked for him, but I didn't have any appetite and didn't taste it at all. He ate it seriously and said it was delicious. Then we had a fight, it was really just a fight, and he wanted to drive me away Go, and then lock the room. I was, how should I put it, sad is really sad, it’s funny to say, an old man who is running for four, and he will still be sad for love and love—then I turned my head to clean up the dining table, actually I originally wanted to throw it all down, but I was a little bit reluctant."

Jiang Qiutong smiled awkwardly: "—I originally cooked to invite pets. I thought, maybe once he opened the refrigerator and saw them, he wouldn't be angry with me?"

"So I put them all in the crisper. When it was in the fridge, I tasted it and it was actually really bad."

"I was thinking at the time, it's such an unpalatable food, why do you still say it's delicious while smiling?"

He continued to cut the meat with that rigorous attitude: "Actually, at that time... Sister, I was really aggrieved to say something embarrassing. I don't know why he was so angry all of a sudden. After thinking about it, I can only think of him. He got angry elsewhere, and then vented his anger on me. But... obviously I didn't do anything." He said blankly, a teardrop fell from his eye socket and landed on the cutting board.

"I always think, he is still young, I want to tolerate him, I am his elder, I forced him to be with me, but... I want an explanation, a promise, even... I can't Is it? I just, I just want him to say something, those things are in the past, I have you in my heart-is it difficult?"

He put the cut meat into a bowl, and then proceeded to handle the other ingredients in a proper manner.

"When he asked me to leave, I really didn't intend to leave. I was just a little sad and wanted to talk to him after he calmed down. But after eating that meat, I realized that I was really I’m forcing him. He’s really good at pretending and acting—sister, you know me, I’m too slow, and it’s hard for me to feel many things. Before when I had no feelings, I could perceive many things, But now I care about him, but I can't guess what he is thinking. As long as he thinks, he has the ability to coax me all the time, so that I will never know what he is thinking. "

This is a bit similar to acting. Jiang Qiutong's previous observation of other people's emotions was based on the "academic school". He first analyzed the reaction and then came to a conclusion. After "experience school", all previous experience will be useless, and it is difficult for him to judge Ji Yao's true emotions.

This is also the reason why Ji Yao dared to carry him behind his back, made a (unilateral) appointment with Yu Siyuan, and broke up when he got tired of playing.

Jiang Qiutong couldn't feel it at all because of the subtle waves and undercurrents.

In fact, as soon as Yu Siyuan left, the marriage certificate he found and what Ji Yao said to him only made Jiang Qiutong, who was naturally numb and insensitive, feel sad. The piece of braised pork in his mouth had a great impact on him.

Jiang Qiutong used to think that when Ji Yao was with him, if he didn't talk about anything else, at least he was happy, right?Or the next best thing, at least peace of mind?Or take a step back, at least you can rest assured?After all, he doesn't make noise, and he doesn't like to mess around like Yu Siyuan.

But... how should I put it, if they are together, just like this piece of braised pork that he wished for, and Ji Yao is just sacrificing himself to fulfill him, then why is there any need to persist in this relationship?

So he packed his things and planned to come back to live for a few days, thinking about what to do.

Jiang Chunshui didn't speak, she leaned on the door frame of the kitchen, and took out a pack of cigarettes from her pocket: "Smoking?"

Jiang Qiutong shook his head, signaling that he was cooking, Jiang Chunshui ordered it for himself, and took a sip: "Do you know why I divorced your brother-in-law?"

"Isn't it because he thinks you're too careless of your family?"

If you put men and women together, Jiang Chunshui is the boss of the Jiang family.Mr. Jiang is actually a bit patriarchal. Since Jiang Qiutong showed his excellent talent when he was young, Mr. Jiang decided to cultivate his grandson and let him enter politics and take over his class. His own parents only focused on academics, and Mr. Jiang had no choice but to hold his nose and promote Jiang Chunshui.

Jiang Chunshui is now the deputy director. She is a woman. If she wants to climb up, besides her background, she has to suffer more and sacrifice more than other men.When her husband divorced her, he also said that she was too neglectful of the family, and he couldn't bear the fact that the child would not see his mother for several months.

In fact, the real reason was that Jiang Chunshui found out that the purpose of her husband's marriage with her was to take a fancy to her status as the granddaughter of Mrs. Jiang, and wanted to gain fame.Of course there is nothing wrong with this, only children yearn for pure and flawless love, it would be strange if they really don't want anything with their family status.It's no wonder that her ex-husband's person was set up too well. Everyone thought he was just an infatuated man who married Miss Jiang's family purely for love. Everyone believed it.

As a result, how perfect people set up at that time was, how disillusioned they were when they collapsed.

"So," Jiang Chunshui raised his head and spit out a smoke ring, "It's really rare, Qiutong. I think you are a fan of bystanders. That boy doesn't want you for anything, and is willing to eat you when he is angry with others." I want to make you happy, do you really think he has no feelings for you? If it were me, a person I don’t like stalks me, no matter how pitiful or humble he is, I just love to put his heart in his heart Stepping on the soles of the shoes, the sadder he is, the more relieved I am - it's none of my business that you love me, who allows you to touch yourself and disturb my life? Did he do that?"

Jiang Qiutong's hand stopped, and he looked at his elder sister thoughtfully.

Jiang Chunshui really deserved to be the first sister back then. She was famous for her beauty and murder. When she saw her younger brother looking back, she brushed her hair, raised her toes gracefully, and made gestures of crushing down hard one by one.

Jiang Qiutong smiled.His eye circles were still a little red, like a thin layer of glaze on white porcelain. He gestured OK to his sister: "I understand." The most unbearable thing for him was that Ji Yao forced himself to coax him With him, as long as you know that Ji Yao is not like this, then you can talk about other things.

Jiang Chunshui raised his eyebrows in satisfaction.

With their age and experience, they have been able to achieve the collapse of Mount Tai without changing their color. Like Jiang Qiutong now, it is already the extreme of emotional exposure. As a sister, a few words of advice, with Jiang Qiutong's self-management ability, it is very easy You will be able to clean up your mood soon.

He poured the oil into the pot, waited for the pot to heat up, and said: "When this meal is done, I will bring it to him."

However, this delicious box lunch with a lot of love added a lot, but it still didn't make it into Ji Yao's stomach. Jiang Qiutong was carried back to City H by Mr. Jiang himself.

Jiang Chunshui wanted to stop him at the time, but the old man sneered, the secretary stepped forward politely, and handed her a document. She took a few pages and read them, her face changed drastically, and she slammed them on the coffee table with a "slap", her expression blank. The expression said: "Take him back, I'll meet that kid named Ji Yao for a while——no," she gritted her teeth and sneered, "Or, 'Ji Yao'?"

Jiang Qiutong's heart skipped a beat, and his thoughts turned. Before he could do anything, Jiang Chunshui took out his mobile phone and turned it off. Several big men surrounded him and said respectfully, "Professor Jiang, please."

Knowing that he couldn't avoid this encounter, he turned his head and took a deep look at Jiang Chunshui, and he was obediently surrounded and got into the car.Only the driver and their grandfather and grandson were in the car, and no one spoke. They flew directly back to City H and returned to Jiang's house.

It is said that it is the Jiang family, but in fact there has been a fourth generation since the old man. Yes, the old man has lived here for decades.

It seems that because of returning to his own territory, the old man who has been stubborn all his life finally felt at ease. The nanny brought tea for the two of them and went down. Bundle."

Jiang Qiutong is the heir that the old man has spent countless efforts to cultivate. Even if he is so ineffective now, he still has some brains. He doesn't need the old man to talk too much. This sentence made him understand the other party's implication in an instant: the old man is angry. Ready to engage in the Ji family.

There was no communication during the whole journey, and his communication tools were confiscated. Although he didn't know what exactly happened, it was obvious that someone took advantage of Ji Yao's sexuality to make trouble, probably because he didn't do his homework well and implicated him. Regarding this area, of course the following passed the news up, and the old man checked it out—Ji Yao had too much black material, and his cover-up methods could only deceive ordinary people. If he wanted to find out, he couldn’t hide it at all—the rest Don't even think about it.

The national conditions of the Celestial Dynasty are that businessmen are naturally short and have more than one official. Those like the Yu family are fine, but the "upstarts" like the Ji family--to put it bluntly, they come from grassroots, and start-up companies that want nothing, let alone strangle them to death easily. , but to cause trouble for it, to make it hurt, to block the veins so that it will not be able to make money in the future, that is really just a matter of the old man's level of twitching his fingers.

Now that the competition is so fierce, there are many people who urgently need to be promoted, have capital and insight, and are obedient and sensible. The old man doesn't pay much attention to a Ji family.Isn't it because he is so fanatical because he is afraid of hitting the mouse and breaking the jade bottle?

Jiang Qiutong did not resist - he did not have the capital to resist.

He sat there peacefully, his face was still as white as ice sculptures and snowdrifts, his eyes were still as clear as deep pools of autumn water, but the smile at the corners of his eyes completely disappeared.He became a real block of ice.

He said blankly, "What do you want from me?"

Mr. Jiang also felt a little uncomfortable. It was rare for him to be tender. He stretched out his fingers covered with age spots and stroked Jiang Qiutong's hair hesitantly: "I don't want you to do anything. I just want you to break up with that kid."

Jiang Qiutong closed his eyes.

Seeing his beloved grandson like this, the old man finally became weak for a while. He tried hard to explain: "I...didn't really do anything to him. Even without me, this matter would have exploded. I just didn't Just stop it. Qiutong, you are my favorite grandson, you said back then that you should not go into politics, but go to school, okay, I know you are dissatisfied with your family, so I agreed; when Yu Siyuan’s incident broke out, his whole family objected , I don't want you to get involved, but you stood in line for a long time, and the Yu family thought it was what I meant, so they pinched their noses and admitted it, but I didn't say anything; after that, you were a good professor , I thought to myself that if you are willing to live like this, then so be it, and in the end you also became gay—what do you make me think? You just threw my face on the ground and stomped on it!!”

He was so angry that he squeezed the crutch beside him tightly: "If I am angry again and gnash my teeth again, why don't I let you speak harshly, say 'a clean break from now on', and let you go with humiliation? The big movement of you being discharged from the hospital overnight, I am Don't you know? If I want to stop you, you can go? I thought, well, at least this kid is a pain, and he took you away, and you two live in peace, that's all, the man just Man, but—”

When the old man said this, he felt great grief in his heart, and finally couldn't hold back his tears: "How can he abuse you so badly! The grandson and grandson I hold in my palm don't want anything for him. In his eyes, Siyuan That kid's extra head! When I got the information, not only did I want to ruin Ji Yao's reputation, I just wanted to kill him with my own hands!"

He was a person who had been on the battlefield back then, and then turned to a civilian job, so the murderous look he showed when talking about these things was not something that young trees who grew up in peacetime could resist.

Jiang Qiutong opened his mouth, wanting to explain something, but he understood that words such as "I am willing" and "He doesn't need it" are okay to coax the soft-hearted Jiang Chunshui. For the old man who loves love, these words have no effect other than further angering the other party.

As if the revelation of true feelings just now was just an illusion, the old man turned into that stubborn old man again in the blink of an eye. He sneered: "Why, do you regret it? Look at you, you can't accomplish anything even in your 30s. Look at your sister, Look at you again, if you were not so stubborn back then, and listened to my arrangement, you would at least be a main hall now! But if you were a little bit less tough, if you didn’t say no back then, you really didn’t want to, and now you won’t be like a blind and deaf person, I Everything has been done here, and you are still nesting in the kitchen, washing your hands and making soup for your little lover!"

Jiang Qiutong clenched his fists.

He said to Ji Yao that day that when he was young, he really hated scholars and researchers. Did you still follow the old path of your parents?

Then he would tell Ji Yao, because it was only after he grew up that he realized that what he really hated was not academics or scientific research, but the power that could control them.So he became a pure scholar and didn't want to have anything to do with politics.

But now he really regrets it.

Mr. Jiang's meaning is already very obvious, either he chooses to break off with Ji Yao, and he lets the Ji family survive; or he dies, depending on whether Jiang Qiutong's bones are hard or the Ji Yao family's bones are hard.

There is no need to choose. He is no longer a young man in his teens or 20s. He understands the key pros and cons of things.

Wen Lin can be tough and come out of the closet lightly, because he has the right to speak in the family, and because the Wen family cannot pose an irreversible threat to the Ji family. Love love will tear your face and fish to death.

But the Jiang family is different. In the eyes of the old man, the king, these petty fights belong to the category of chickens pecking each other.

There was a very popular meme for a while, "I'll give you 500 million, you leave my son", is it funny?Jiang Qiutong really couldn't laugh.

"...I listen to you."

he said wearily.

There was no struggle, no yelling, no shouting out his feelings, he just sat there stiff, his spine straight, and it collapsed.

This piece of pride that had never succumbed to power was finally broken.
