did not meet tonight

Ye Jian really didn't want to stay in this kind of place, she tidied up and stood up and said, "Then I'll go back to my room first, you guys eat slowly."

As he spoke, he glanced at Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu nodded to him, and Ye Jian left.Lu Baoqian snorted coldly, and when she was about to speak, she was blocked by Xiao Yu's eye knife, and she sat there and dared not speak anymore.

It was already dark outside, and Ye Jian came directly to the courtyard, where the lights were very bright, and the trees cast countless shadows on the ground, shaking with the sound of the wind, making rustling sounds.It stands to reason that this kind of place full of green trees and flowers should be full of vitality, but Ye Jian always feels that no matter where the corner is, there is a sense of depression, just like when Chen Qiankun was sitting there when he was eating, others dare not even breathe Come on, is that old man really so scary?

At least Ye Jian couldn't see it yet.

He was walking on the quiet path when he suddenly heard the sound of small footsteps behind him, tap-tap-tap, very light and slow.His scalp is numb. Isn't this scary enough in a place surrounded by trees and unfamiliar places?

A certain supernatural idiom came to mind, causing Ye Jian to break out in a cold sweat. He stopped there, his eyeballs turned from left to right, and then from right to left, but he couldn't see what was behind him.He simply put his heart to one side, turned around suddenly, and shouted: "Hurry up like a law!"

Before he could utter the last word, he just stood there in a daze, followed by Chen Jing, who was wearing a white dress, she was startled by Ye Jian's sudden movement, and she shrank back in a daze Standing there helplessly.Ye Jian hurriedly withdrew his defensive gesture and said, "Miss Jing, it's you, I thought it was you"

"What is it?" Chen Jing asked curiously.

"That kind of thing." Ye Jian pointed to the night sky and said.

"Ah? What kind of thing?" Chen Jing looked up, but didn't understand.

She really looked like she might not even be an adult, her eyes blinked under the streetlight, obviously she didn't understand Ye Jian's words.Ye Jian wanted to scare her, glanced left and right, and said secretly: "Don't you know? It's the kind of thing that comes out to wander every night. They float when they walk, and they like dark and dark places the most, like here."

Chen Jing pointed behind him and said, "Are you talking about those people?"

Ye Jian's hair stood on end: "Then those people?"

Chen Jing still stared in that direction: "Yes, it's dark, people walking floating."

A huge tree of cold sweat was dripping from Ye Jian's forehead. He rolled his eyes and turned his neck stiffly to look at it.Ye Jian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Miss Jing, it's wrong to be scary!"

"You can't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist!" Chen Jing's voice was very low, and there was something strange in the place surrounded by the wind, "You can see me here because I exist, but you can't see it. Those people or things, they also exist.”

Although the courtyard is very bright, there are always places where the light cannot reach, where the shadows of the branches are shaking, as if something terrible could burst out at any time.Ye Jian felt cold in his heart, and said nervously, "How about we change the subject?"

Chen Jing giggled, like a child who managed to play a prank: "Look, you're scared!"

She was completely different from the cowardly look in the restaurant, her laughter was crisp and clear, even Ye Jian couldn't help being infected, he put on his face on purpose and said: "So you're teasing me, I'm angry!"

"No, no, I won't dare again!" Chen Jing shook his arm begging for mercy.

Her pretty little face was shining under the street lamp, and you could see the delicate fluff on it, she was indescribably cute and innocent.Ye Jian reluctantly said, "I'll forgive you this time, but I won't make another example."

"I'm a little sleepy, can you take me back?" Chen Jing asked beggingly.

It stands to reason that even if she is adopted, she is still the eldest lady of the Chen family, why is there no servant around so late?Moreover, Lu Baoqian was very unfriendly to her during the meal, and Chen Zhe didn't even stop her. Could it be that she is so unpopular in the Chen family?Seeing her pitiful appearance, Ye Jian felt a sense of justice in his heart, and said, "Okay, no problem, which room do you live in?"

Chen Jing pointed to the end of the road: "Over there, I live there alone."

Ye Jian saw the house with a black silhouette faintly exposed in the night, which seemed to be an independent building.They walked there side by side, the courtyard was very quiet, Chen Jing took a deep breath, and seemed to enjoy the atmosphere: "I still like this, going to places with many people will scare me."

"Aren't you afraid of me?" Ye Jian asked.

"You are different from them, I knew it when I first saw you." Chen Jing said, "There are so many people here, but I know they don't like me at all, because I am redundant, I have always Dreaming of leaving this place one day, but I know that's impossible."

"How come, as long as you are in good health, you can go anywhere you want." Ye Jian comforted her.

"But my illness will not be cured." Chen Jing shook her head, looking very helpless, "I used to think that I would be cured, but gradually I found that it was impossible. I can only stay in this place, nowhere else. can not go."

Except that his face was pale, he really couldn't see anything from the outside, Ye Jian didn't know what to say, the two of them walked along the long path, a small garden gradually appeared in front of them, and inside the garden was a small independent building .Ye Jian raised her head and found that the windows on the second floor were open, and the lights illuminated a few wind chimes made of rattan balls. In front of the castle-like manor not far away, it was like another forgotten world.

"I'm here, thank you for taking me back." Chen Jing said with a smile.

"Go back and rest early." Ye Jian smiled at her.

"Well, good night." Chen Jing waved goodbye, walked through the small garden, and with a light push, the door opened.She had already stepped in with one foot, but stopped suddenly. Ye Jian saw that her hand was unconsciously grasping the door panel, which seemed very strange.Ye Jian was about to go over to see if he needed help, but at this moment Chen Jing turned around and smiled at him: "Good night."

Her eyes were shining brightly under the light, as if tears were flickering, Ye Jian was startled, she had already walked into the room and closed the door.

This girl always looks very unhappy. Even when she smiles, her eyes are full of melancholy. Maybe outsiders see her as a princess living in a castle, but to her, she may be A little bird imprisoned in a cage is obviously full of longing for the sky, but it cannot spread its wings to fly.

Ye Jian unconsciously sighed, turned around and walked back, a black shadow suddenly flashed past behind the tree, he was startled, and blurted out: "Who!"

There was no other sound there. He hesitated for a moment, turned on the flashlight function of his mobile phone, and walked over carefully. There was nothing behind the tree.

Is it an illusion?

Ye Jian scratched his head, turned around suspiciously, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, he subconsciously called out, and the man spoke first, "Mr. Ye, why are you here?"

It was only then that Ye Jian recognized that the other party was Yan Meilan, the stern woman who claimed to be the housekeeper of life. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I just walked around after eating too much, and I came here before I knew it." He didn't mention himself I always felt that the other party would not be happy to hear about sending Chen Jing back.

Yan Meilan said coldly, "This is Miss Jing's residence. Strange men are not allowed to enter. Please forgive me, Mr. Ye."

"That's it, I see, I will pay attention next time." Ye Jian replied nonchalantly, and then asked, "Is the person just now Ms. Yan you?"

"Just now? I don't understand what Mr. Ye is referring to." Yan Meilan always kept her hands in front of her body, indifferent and rigorous, and she didn't seem to be concealing it intentionally.

If it wasn't her, who was it just now?Is it really an illusion?

Ye Jian returned to the place where he lived with this stomach full of doubts, opened the door and saw Xiao Yu sitting inside, he backed out and took a look at the house number to make sure that he had gone the right way.He pointed to the outside and then to the inside and said, "Did you go to the wrong room?"

"I said hello to Chen Zhe, and I will live here in the future." Xiao Yu said.

"You told him that the two of us would sleep in the same room?" Ye Jian cried like a cat that stepped on its tail, "Did you drink too much at night and become confused? The people who live in this house are all like you. There are countless ties, so you are not afraid that they will tip off your family members?"

"That's also true." Xiao Yu said calmly.

"Do you have a fever?" Ye Jian reached out to touch his forehead.

"I said I don't mind." Xiao Yu took his hand off, as if he thought it was normal.Ye Jian felt that his head was getting bigger. As the person involved, he should really be grateful for Xiao Yu's confession, but the problem is that he is not mentally prepared. Nine lives are not enough for him!

"I feel like I'm going to be drowned in white eyes and spittle." Ye Jian sat on the sofa with a desperate expression on his face.

"Where did you go just now?" Xiao Yu asked casually.

"The atmosphere in the restaurant is weird. I went to the yard for a while when I had nothing to do. I happened to meet Ms. Jing, so I sent her back." Ye Jian said, "This Ms. Jing looks quite young. Is she the adopted daughter of the Chen family?"

"To be precise, she is Xu Xueru's adopted daughter, a child she adopted from the orphanage after she came to the Chen family for the second year." Xiao Yu explained, "Because she and Chen Qiankun did not go through the marriage formalities, so although Jing'er's surname is Chen, But it has nothing to do with the Chen family."

"So that's how it is. The relationship between these people in the Chen family is really complicated." Ye Jian shook his head, looking incomprehensible.If it is said that Chen Qiankun doesn't love Xu Xueru, they have been together for so many years, and there is no other mistress in this house, but if it is love, why not give her an official title?

"Go to bed early, remember to attend the birthday banquet tomorrow." Xiao Yu stood up and said.

Seeing him walking outside, Ye Jian asked strangely: "Didn't you say that you will sleep in this room in the future?"

"Since you don't want others to know, I won't force you." Xiao Yu said with a smile.

So you were just kidding him?

"Actually, it's not that I don't want to, but I just don't know how to face it." Ye Jian rubbed his hands and said in embarrassment.

"Take your time, I've been here all the time." Xiao Yu patted his head, "Rest early."

Ye Jian watched him walk into the opposite door, sighed unconsciously, accidentally saw the door of the room where Lu Yaning lived was open a thin crack, and "bang" at the moment he cast his gaze off.
