Uh, Her Royal Highness

Hanmoxuan opened and stopped, and without Chu Shao as a living sign, it should be basically difficult to continue to operate.But fortunately, Hanmoxuan’s reputation in the calligraphy and painting circle has already been established in those days, and even without Chu Shao’s calligraphy and painting to support the appearance, Jiang Jiu’s calligraphy is still liked by some people, so it can barely continue .

Teacher Xiao Jiang, who just lost his job recently and was really bored at home, sat in Hanmoxuan for three days.Although only one piece of calligraphy was sold, the business was much worse than when Chu Shao was in short supply, but she really didn't want to waste her life at home, so she also regarded opening a shop as a job, and every day Long or short, they will go to Hanmoxuan for a period of time.

Chu Shao and Xiao Wanjue seem to be busier recently, and they always get together to discuss things if they have nothing to do.Jiang Jiu listened impatiently and didn't quite understand, so she simply ran to Hanmoxuan to guard her last job.Chu Shao and Xiao Wanjue didn't say anything when they saw each other, but they showed a posture of letting go.

Since Chu Shao appeared in her life, it was the first time that Jiang Jiu had been so completely ignored, and it was inevitable that she felt a little depressed.But seeing more and more documents sent by Xiao Li, Chu Shao was squeezed by her mother to such an extent that it was hard for her to show anything in front of the other party.Instead, I want to talk to Xiao Wanjue alone, but I haven't found a chance yet, so I can only hold my words in my stomach.

When Jiang Jiu woke up early this morning on the big bed in the guest room of Xiao Wanjue's house, he habitually reached out and touched the place beside him. As a result, it was like every day after moving here. I know how long Chu Shao has been up.

Jiang Jiu pouted, hugged the quilt and sat up, sat on the bed with dazed eyes for almost 10 minutes before getting up in a daze.After getting up and washing, I went to the kitchen to make some simple breakfast. I didn't need to go to the dining room. I went directly to the study with it, and I found the other two women in the family.

Hearing the sound of the study door being opened, Chu Shao and Xiao Wanjue who were beside the desk raised their heads at the same time.Xiao Wanjue's expression remained calm, he only glanced at her, and then turned his attention to the half-read document in his hand.Chu Shao's brows were gentle, and he smiled faintly: "Xiao Jiu, are you awake?"

Jiang Jiu hummed softly, put down the tray containing the breakfast in his hand, then pulled a chair and sat down, picked up the breakfast and started eating.

Chu Shao smiled and didn't say anything else, but immediately put down the document she had just read halfway through, and also ate breakfast.Seeing this, Xiao Wanjue naturally did not fall behind.So a good study room was reduced to a restaurant...

Since moving to Xiao Wanjue's house, this situation has been repeated every morning.After breakfast, Chu Shao and Xiao Wanjue continued to stay in the study and do their work, but Jiang Jiu went out to Hanmoxuan by herself.

By the time Jiang Jiu appeared on the road in the city driving unhurriedly, the morning rush hour of congestion had already passed.Both the students who are going to school and the office workers who are going to work have already arrived where they should be. There are cars on the road in twos and threes, and the traffic condition is indescribably good.

Jiang Jiu came out during this time period these days, and never encountered a traffic jam.It was the same today, she drove the car all the way outside Hanmoxuan, and then opened the store door as usual.

If there is no accident, she will stay in the store for most of the day, no matter whether there are customers or not, she will stay in the store until the evening rush hour in the afternoon, and then close the store again and rush home to meet the two women. make dinner.

After dinner, Chu Shao's time belongs to Jiang Jiu.No matter how much work is left, Xiao Wanjue will never ask Chu Shao to do anything, because she knows what is enough.Because of this, even though Jiang Jiu was somewhat dissatisfied with Xiao Wanjue's poaching behavior, she didn't say much, and she didn't take anyone away directly.

Day after day like this, in a trance, Jiang Jiu almost thought that life was like this.

************************************************** **********************

My eyes were a little sore after reading the documents all day, and my neck was so sore from keeping one movement all day.Chu Shao closed her eyes, reached out and pinched the bridge of her nose, and moved her neck slowly...

This feeling is very familiar. When reviewing memorials in the Xuande Palace, Chu Shao often felt such a tired feeling, so she didn't take it to heart.On the other hand, Xiao Wanjue, who was typing on the computer, glanced over because of her movements, and asked, "How is it?"

Chu Shao still closed his eyes, shook his head without paying much attention and said: "It's okay." After a pause, he smiled again: "Anyway, I won't be busy for a few days, and it will be fine in a few days."

Xiao Wanjue glanced at her again when she heard the words, Her Royal Highness had a habitual smile on her delicate and beautiful face, even Xiao Wanjue, who had been in the mall for many years and thought he could see through people's hearts, couldn't tell the difference Come.

Lowering his eyes slightly, Xiao Wanjue didn't say anything.

Just when the atmosphere in the study was about to return to dead silence again, Chu Shao, who had always been calm, suddenly let out a soft "Huh".The voice was not loud, it could even be said to be very slight, if it wasn't for the quietness in the study at this time, Xiao Wanjue might not have heard her.But in such a short sound, it is not difficult to hear her surprise.

So very rare, Xiao Wanjue raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

At this time, Chu Shao had already opened her eyes, and her gaze was facing the window of the study room. The sky outside the window was slightly dark, and the twilight was deep.

Xiao Wanjue followed her gaze and looked over, except that it was getting late, there was no problem outside the window.But she realized in an instant that the word "it's getting late" was the biggest problem in the first place.

Before Xiao Wanjue could react, Chu Shao had already pushed away the chair and stood up.Her legs, which had been sitting for a whole day, felt a little numb for a moment because of the lack of blood flow, but she ignored it and strode over to open the door of the study.

Because there was no one else at home, except for the light in the study room that was turned on at some unknown time, the whole house was shrouded in the deep twilight outside the window.In the space outside the study, darkness and dead silence continue to spread in the air...

Xiao Wanjue's legs have improved a lot after recuperating. Although he still cannot do without the crutches, his movements are much more agile.She was two steps too late to follow Chu Shao to the door of the study room, glanced outside, and finally frowned slightly: "Jiang Jiu hasn't come back yet?!"

Obviously, Jiang Jiu didn't come back.Because every time she comes back, she will come to the study to report immediately, and then take Chu Shao to the kitchen, and then help chop a dish, or just watch.

These days, in order to avoid the evening rush hour, Jiang Jiu always arrives home before five o'clock.Even if there were any accidents, for example, she suddenly remembered that there was no food at home, and went to buy food temporarily, it was impossible to delay it beyond 05:30, so it was the first time for Chu Shao to stay in the study until the twilight .

Chu Shao didn't reply, but turned his head to look at Xiao Wanjue.

Xiao Wanjue pursed her lips, didn't say anything, turned around and went back to the study.

Chu Shao's gaze followed her, watching her pick up the mobile phone on the desk, and then started making calls without hesitation.

The person on the other end of the phone answered the phone very quickly, Xiao Wanjue asked first: "Where is the person?" Her voice was as cold as ever, but for some reason, it seemed to be especially permeable today.

Chu Shao's hearing has always been very good. Even though the phone was a few meters away, the voice of the phone was not loud, but she still heard a man's voice on the other end of the phone replying: "Still in Hanmoxuan. Zhang from the Academy of Fine Arts before The professor brought two people in. He was a regular customer of the store before, and he should have introduced customers. They have not come out yet, and they can see the figures in the store, but I don’t know why the lights in the store have not been turned on until now. "

Hearing what he said, both Xiao Wanjue and Chu Shao sensed that something was wrong, and a vague feeling of uneasiness emerged in their hearts.Chu Shao frowned, while Xiao Wanjue ordered directly: "Go in and have a look in Hanmoxuan now."

The man on the other end of the phone answered quickly, without hanging up the phone, and went straight over.Soon, his panicked voice came from the phone: "Boss, he's gone!"

As the voice of "the person is missing" on the phone fell, the atmosphere in the study seemed to freeze for a moment, and Chu Shao's thin lips were pursed a little tight.

Xiao Wanjue didn't look at Chu Shao, she just narrowed her eyes slightly listening to the panicked voice on the phone.Not paying attention to the panicked explanation on the other end of the phone, she hung up the phone without saying anything, regardless of how frightened the other party was.

After a while, she moved her fingers slightly and dialed another phone number, but only said one sentence: "Jiang Jiu is missing."
