Come To My Side - Chapter 10
It was late at night, the neon was illusory, and the lights were flashy.
A car passed by on the road, heading for their destination.
Guan Xi didn’t know where her destination was. After staying in the car for a long time, she received a call from Guan Xinghao.
“dad.”
“Xixi, where are you playing?” Guan Xinghao’s voice was gentle, familiar to her.
Guan Xi’s nose is a little sore.
Thinking about it, she is actually not unlucky. Even if the father she met was not his own, he was so kind to her.
“Today Song Li’s birthday, we are celebrating him.”
“Is that so, will you come back tonight? If you want to come back, Dad will let someone pick you up.”
Guan Xi lay on the steering wheel and lowered his voice: “No, I, we live outside today.”
Subconsciously, I don’t want to go home.
Guan Xinghao snorted: “Okay, then you guys have fun and let Suizhou take care of you more.”
“…knowledge.”
There was a gap in the middle, Guan Xi knew that he still had something to say, so he waited quietly.
Sure enough, Guan Xinghao hesitated and said, “It’s been a long time since Yingying came home. Your mother and I have never told your grandparents and the others that Yingying is still alive, and now I plan to tell everyone publicly.”
What should come always comes, probably because the foreshadowing has been long enough, and Guan Xi is very calm when he hears this.
“I know, when are you going to say it?”
“Tomorrow, let’s have dinner together.”
“Okay.” Guan Xi said.
Guan Xinghao felt a little embarrassed after listening to her answering it happily.
He is very fond of Guan Xi, and he knows that this daughter is spoiled by him and has a great temper. Earlier, he was actually prepared that Guan Ying’s appearance would make Guan Xi make a fuss about him. He thought that was normal.
Unexpectedly, she didn’t make any trouble.
Guan Xinghao: “Xi Xi…”
Guan Xi: “Where is the location?”
The two spoke at the same time.
Guan Xi was stunned: “What do you want to say?”
Guan Xinghao calmed down and said, “It’s nothing…the location, it’s at Grandpa’s house. You probably come here at lunchtime.”
Guan Xi: “I know.”
“Okay, then Dad won’t bother you anymore, hang up.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Guan Xi stared at the phone for a long time. It seems that during this period of time, her father has always called her. For so long, her mother has never called her, not a single one.
Guan Xi shook his head, throwing away the feeling of loss.
Forget it… She just met her own daughter recently, and it’s not surprising that she is so focused on her.
She must have just forgotten about her for a while.
**
Guan Xi also has real estate in her name, but she has never lived in those houses, and she doesn’t know how much dust there is. So that night, she went directly to the Nanjue Hotel.
The Nanjue Hotel is owned by the Guan family, her cousin Guan Yuanbai’s site, and she feels more secure here.
After opening the room, she took a shower, turned off her phone, and fell asleep.
It was noon when I woke up the next day, and my phone was full of messages, including Jiang Suizhou’s.
【Are you going to sleep in a hotel? 】
[Talk about. 】
What to talk about!
Guan Xi was annoyed again when he remembered the conversation between the two of them yesterday.
Wait… how did he know she came to the hotel to sleep?
Was the surveillance camera pressed on her or was she seen when she came to open the room last night.
Guan Xi was puzzled for a while, and when he turned his head, he happened to see the car keys, bank cards and other trivial matters that he had left on the bedside table last night.
She was stunned for a moment, and picked up the card that was used to swipe the room fee yesterday.
Oh, this one seems to be a secondary card of Jiang Suizhou.
“…”
Guan Xi rolled his eyes and fell into the pillow.
But in Jiang Suizhou, she never had the concept of “eating people with short mouths and short hands”. So don’t expect her to find out that she is a little weaker after using his money, and her anger will disappear.
Guan Xi picked up the mobile phone, and was about to reply to him with a few sharp words to wake him up, but before it could be sent, the doorbell rang.
She put down her phone, got up, walked behind the door, and glanced out from the cat’s eye.
By… Jiang Suizhou?
This guy came too fast.
Guan Xi immediately took a step back. She glanced at the full-length mirror by the door, and quickly straightened her messy hair.
The doorbell rang again.
Guan Xi knew that she would not open the door, and he also had a hundred ways to open the door, so she didn’t bother, opened the door directly, and stood behind the gap and looked at him.
“What?” she said sharply.
Jiang Suizhou was very used to her appearance. She used to be like this every time she was angry, arrogant, and seemed to use her eyes to divide people.
But she probably didn’t realize today that she wasn’t ready.
Nightgown, slightly messy hair, a face with no makeup on, and the height that was pulled away from him by wearing hotel slippers.
The milk is milky, and there is no momentum.
Jiang Suizhou looked down at her and said lightly, “Let me in first.”
Guan Xi didn’t move: “If you have something to say, why do you have to come in?”
Jiang Suizhou reached out and pressed the door: “Do you want me to force it in?”
Guan Xi glared at him.
Jiang Suizhou frowned: “You were so angry yesterday? You were so angry that you went straight to the hotel.”
Guan Xi felt that he was exerting force, and she could barely hold the door.
In order to avoid being pushed down by embarrassment, she finally let go and turned around and walked back: “I just wanted to come to the hotel suddenly, why am I angry!”
Jiang Suizhou walked in and closed the door with his backhand.
Guan Xi sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him coldly: “Besides, you didn’t care about me where I lived before, why would you have an opinion.”
Jiang Suizhou stood in front of her: “It’s not that you have an opinion about staying in a hotel, it’s that you have an opinion that you are angry with me about Xie Yan.”
“When am I because of Xie Yan—”
“You thought I was blind yesterday?”
Guan Xi choked, she was not angry yesterday because of Xie Yan, but because of what he said. However, she can’t say that she is angry because of that, otherwise he will wonder why she is angry with this.
Guan Xi was speechless for a moment.
“You are my fiancée. It would be inappropriate to make trouble with me because of other men.”
Guan Xi glanced over, ignoring him.
Jiang Suizhou stretched out his hand to break her chin, forcing her to look at himself: “Speak.”
Guan Xi turned his head again, intending not to admit the account: “I didn’t make trouble with you yesterday, I just have an opinion on what you said, and I can’t express my opinion. You talk about the matter, and I also talk about the matter. Then…the big deal is me. I was in a bad mood at first, but my tone was a little rushed.”
Jiang Suizhou frowned.
Guan Xi took his hand away and got up: “Jiang Suizhou, the status of an adopted son is indeed inferior to his own. You are right. However, it’s not that he can’t get on the stage, and it’s not too embarrassing!”
Jiang Suizhou: “I didn’t say shame.”
Guan Xi was stunned, oh, didn’t seem to say anything?
“Then you can’t make it to the table!”
Jiang Suizhou thought about it, and he seemed to say so at the time. But in fact, he has no opinion on Xie Yan, and even appreciates his ability. At that time, he would say this… It seems that he was also a little unhappy by the picture of Guan Xi approaching people, and he didn’t choose what to say.
Jiang Suizhou said, “Just say it casually.”
Guan Xi: “…”
Believe in your evil! Just saying no is what you think!
“So you were just arguing with me last night?”
Guan Xi: “Can’t you?”
“Okay, since you’re only in a bad mood and have a bad debating attitude, then forget it.” Jiang Suizhou said, “It’s not because of Xie Yan.”
“…”
Jiang Suizhou seemed to get a satisfactory answer to him, so his attitude became quicker. He familiarly reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist, nudged her slightly, “Go wash and wash up, go out to eat.”
damn thing!
Who wants to eat with you!
wait… for dinner?
Guan Xi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered an important thing: “Today I’m going to grandpa’s house…”
She quickly glanced at the time. It was eleven o’clock. It was already noon and lunch, so everyone should have almost arrived at Grandpa’s house.
Guan Xi’s mind was about to recognize his relatives, and his scalp felt numb…
Forget it, let’s go later.
Guan Xi took his hand away: “I don’t go out to eat, I just eat at the hotel.”
Jiang Suizhou had a morning meeting today, and still took a little free time at noon to deal with Guan Xi.
Getting up early makes him a little sleepy. Seeing that Guan Xi was going to eat at the hotel, he also thought it was feasible, so he directly pulled her to lie down on the bed: “Okay, then call me one too.”
Guan Xi was suddenly hugged by the waist and lay down, caught off guard, with a dark face: “Hello? I don’t want to go out to eat, you can go by yourself, what are you doing? President Jiang, please let go first.”
Jiang Suizhou didn’t move, his hands seemed to be like an iron wall.
Guan Xi struggled for a while, but could only give up.
Jiang Suizhou then said quietly: “It’s called Chinese food, I don’t want to eat Western food.”
“Call yourself.”
Jiang Suizhou hummed: “Call me.”
Guan Xi couldn’t get out of his arms at all, so he stretched out his hand to take the phone on the bedside table and pressed it to order dinner. Jiang Suizhou took it over and skillfully reported several names of dishes.
Guan Xi listened to the voice behind him and remembered a time before.
At that time, the two of them had opened a room here, and they also ordered a meal. After the meal came, Jiang Suizhou thought it was unpalatable, and immediately called the general person in charge of the hotel, her cousin Guan Yuanbai.
Nanjue’s meals have always been touted in the industry, but Jiang Suizhou is picky, and his ability to pick bones in eggs is unparalleled. He made Guan Yuanbai half-dead with his calm disgust. Later, Guan Yuanbai spat at him to make him like it or not, and sternly warned him not to take his sister to open a room in his hotel.
He raised his voice during the call. At that time, Guan Xi saw that he was speechless and couldn’t laugh at the side.
“What are you happy about?” Jiang Suizhou hung up the phone.
Only then did Guan Xi realize that she was laughing while thinking about it, and she suddenly turned serious: “No, but didn’t you say that the food here is unpalatable, why do you still eat it?”
Jiang Suizhou: “It’s been improved, don’t you know?”
“…what?”
Jiang Suizhou: “Guan Yuanbai became angry at the time, but then he secretly told me that the kitchen improved.”
“…”
It’s like her brother’s style.
Jiang Suizhou adjusted his comfortable posture, closed his eyes, and asked again, “So why were you in a bad mood yesterday?”
What should come always comes.
Guan Xi was silent for a moment, then turned around.
He was holding her from behind, and the two were very close. As soon as she turned around, her forehead almost touched.
Jiang Suizhou didn’t wear glasses today. In fact, he didn’t wear glasses all the time. He was short-sighted by more than 100 degrees.
When she didn’t wear glasses, she could clearly see his eyelashes, which were long and dense. She knew that if she opened her eyes, she would be able to see a pair of beautiful eyes, clear and cold, deep and clear.
She said a lot of bad things about him behind his back, but she never attacked his appearance.
Otherwise, she will appear blind.
“You should have heard of it. Our family had a deceased child a long time ago.” Guan Xi said directly, she thought, he would know in a few days anyway.
As for what he thinks of his adopted son, why she cares so much, he will never have a chance to know about it in the future.
It doesn’t make sense to think about her anger now. The things they both need from each other have always been frank and direct, interests, desires, that’s all.
They used to need each other and use each other. That’s still the case now, and even she needs him even more now, and it’s really irrational to be too emotional about him.
“I heard it.” Jiang Suizhou said.
Guan Xi: “She’s back.”
Jiang Suizhou opened his eyes: “What?”
Guan Xi said: “Actually, she is not dead. She was thrown to others by the nanny at first, and then she was secretly sold. Now, she has found her biological parents.”
Jiang Suizhou has always been calm, and he was not surprised when he heard this. He only asked, “How did you find it.”
“Guan Ying looks very similar to her mother, oh Guan Ying is that girl’s name. To what extent is she standing next to my mother, and I can tell at a glance that she was born by my mother. Not long ago, Guan Ying was born. I accidentally saw my mother on the news, it was a shopping mall opening, and my parents went to cut the ribbon.”
“Just because you think you look like the people on the news?”
“Not exactly, the most important thing is that she knew that she was not her own since she was a child. So in this case, if I went to check the news about the loss of a child in our family back then, I would definitely have guesses in my heart. Anyway, I got in touch later and checked it out. dna, confirmed.” Guan Xi laughed, “Isn’t it amazing, maybe this is fate.”
Jiang Suizhou was silent for a while, and said, “You are not happy.”
It’s not a question, it’s a statement.
Guan Xi’s smile froze, and he said slowly, “My sister is alive, what’s so unhappy about it? I’m very happy.”
Jiang Suizhou: “Aren’t you afraid that she will divide your favor with you? Dividing property?”
Sure enough, it was Jiang Suizhou, and every sentence was heartbreaking…
Guan Xi rolled his eyes at him, reached out and pinched him, “I don’t have it, shut up.”
Jiang Suizhou easily restrained her wrist: “Really, that’s not the Guan Xi I know.”
“Jiang Suizhou, if you don’t speak, I won’t treat you as a mute-“
She was wearing a nightgown, struggling twice, and her clothes were scattered, and the neckline was beautiful.
Jiang Suizhou glanced over, but remembered that this meeting was short and not suitable for prostitution in the daytime. She had no choice but to press the mind that was easily hooked, stretched out her hand and pulled it, covering her plump curves.
“I finally know what you mean by giving me twenty-eight gifts.” After the action, he suddenly said.
Guan Xi: “…?”
“It turned out to be to strengthen the relationship with me so that I could lay a foundation.”
Guan Xi stared at him without blushing: “Why, no, then when your brother married the eldest lady of the Jiang family, you really had something to do with me and brought me home for dinner that day.”
“I didn’t say that I can’t turn over any old accounts.” Jiang Suizhou continued to close his eyes and calmly said, “This is good, it is considered to solve the case.”
“What case?”
“I originally thought that what you do is a big deal. Now that you know the truth, you can rest assured.”
The author has something to say: Jiang: solved the case, solved the case, saved some money (not)
