Restricted Area - Chapter 51
When it was time for wind, Zheng Mingyi went to the playground again.
As the weather gradually turned cooler, more people went to the playground. However, there are limited places to sit on the playground. Except for the area where simple fitness equipment is placed, there is only one bench in other places.
This bench is occupied by Xu Sheng’s people all year round, but as long as Zheng Mingyi’s figure appears in the playground, half of the bench must belong to him.
Jiang Chijing looked out the window leisurely, and Zheng Mingyi’s profile was at the end of his sight. Regardless of whether he was looking up close or from a distance, Jiang Chijing’s gaze could not be removed from Zheng Mingyi’s side face.
Zheng Mingyi’s lips moved lightly, chatting with Xu Sheng beside him. Because the distance was too far, Jiang Chijing couldn’t hear the conversation between the two, but it was like watching a silent film, and he could pay more attention to the look and posture of the protagonist.
Unlike Xu Sheng, whose elbows are on his knees, who is slightly restrained, Zheng Mingyi leaned back on the bench and put his hands on his legs casually. He gazes straight ahead, and does not move his lips too much. Emotional leaks.
Jiang Chijing guessed that the two should be talking about Xu Sheng’s commutation.
Xu Sheng was kept in the dark, and after knowing what happened, he would definitely come to Zheng Mingyi for confirmation. Most of his eyes stopped on the surface of the playground, most likely to express his gratitude to Zheng Mingyi, or express his feelings, otherwise he would not look at the ground slightly embarrassingly.
Zheng Mingyi didn’t react too much, his expression was still flat and straightforward. Based on Jiang Chijing’s understanding of him, he shouldn’t have a crush with Xu Sheng, but tell Xu Sheng why he did it.
After a long while, Xu Sheng sighed, leaning back on the bench like Zheng Mingyi, looking forward with his eyes open, Jiang Chijing guessed that this was talking about the future, such as how the old couple would settle and how to get along with the princess. and many more.
At this time, a new character suddenly appeared in the silent film, and Lao Jiu walked to the bench from a corner of the screen, and was stopped by the younger brother guarding the bench.
He pushed the younger brother in front of him angrily, but the other two younger brothers immediately came over and stopped him firmly.
He had to tilt his head, look over these little brothers, and shout to Xu Sheng on the bench. The sound appeared for the first time in a silent film, but it was not real, and the owner who could only vaguely heard the sound hoped to get a reply.
Xu Sheng glanced at Old Jiu indifferently, and continued to chat with Zheng Mingyi beside him defiantly.
Seeing this, Jiang Chijing suddenly felt that even though he had felt that Zheng Mingyi’s status among prisoners was unusual, he didn’t really feel it until now.
Lao Jiu is like an abandoned “Taxi,” with no sense of existence in front of the “General.” However, Zheng Mingyi did not replace Lao Jiu as Xu Sheng’s “person”, he is another “handsome” on the chessboard, and only the “general” can sit on an equal footing with him.
There was the rustling of moving chairs and quiet conversations in the library. Jiang Chijing retracted his eyes from the window, and saw many prisoners approach the window and watched the silent film on the playground like Jiang Chijing.
Most of the prisoners in the library did not participate in the factional fights in the prison, but the more marginalized people, the more they like to watch the excitement. There have been talks of Lao Jiu losing power in prison, and the younger brothers around him all ran away.
Others said that Xu Sheng valued Zheng Mingyi very much, and he had to wait for Zheng Mingyi to move his chopsticks before eating at noon.
Of course, in addition to these, there are strange rumors, such as Zheng Mingyi is Xu Sheng’s new darling, the princess was beaten into the cold palace and so on.
Jiang Chijing yelled “Quiet”, and the prisoners who were addicted to chatting finally calmed down a lot. However, many people look at Jiang Chijing with gossip in their eyes, probably because they want to see how Jiang Chijing will react after losing his “horse”.
Jiang Chijing looked out the window again with a faint expression, and saw that Lao Jiu had left the bench and returned to the fitness equipment area.
Looking down from Jiang Chijing’s perspective, many people on the playground were laughing while looking at Lao Jiu, apparently laughing at Lao Jiu. While Lao Jiu picked up the dumbbells and did a curl, he didn’t seem to care about the gaze of the people around him, but his expression was dark and his eyes were cold, and his heart should not be as calm as he showed.
After a while, Zheng Mingyi ended the conversation with Xu Sheng and walked in the direction of the office building. Lao Jiu put down the dumbbells, his eyes moved with Zheng Mingyi’s figure, his eyes became colder again.
With Zheng Mingyi’s departure, there were no leading male actors in silent films, and Jiang Chijing also lost interest.
Just now, a prisoner sat in the first row by the window in order to come to the window to watch the excitement. As soon as Zheng Mingyi appeared in the library, the man immediately returned to his previous seat with a book.
Zheng Mingyi sat down in his old position and said to Jiang Chijing with his mouth: I’m so hungry.
Jiang Chijing pointed his chin to the eco-bag beside him, indicating that it contained his strawberry pie.
When the clock passed slowly past two o’clock, there were finally only two people left in the library. Zheng Mingyi sat in the work area and immediately opened the fresh-keeping box Jiang Chijing had brought.
“It looks like a good show.” Zheng Mingyi looked at the strawberry pie in his hand.
“Then don’t eat.” Jiang Chijing made a gesture to take back the fresh-keeping box.
“Why don’t you eat it?” Zheng Mingyi took a bite of the strawberry pie, savoring it carefully, without commenting on it for a long time.
“How is it?” Jiang Chijing couldn’t help asking.
“It’s delicious.” Zheng Mingyi nodded, “I just can put more sugar next time.”
“I put it according to the standard.” Jiang Chijing thought of the so sweet strawberry jam again, frowning, “Why do you eat so sweet?”
“I like sweets.” Zheng Mingyi smiled and picked up another strawberry pie.
The matter of taste really requires more running-in, Jiang Chijing didn’t worry about it anymore, and said sternly: “By the way, you’d better be careful about Lao Jiu.”
“Do you think he is not right?” Zheng Mingyi seemed to be really hungry, and soon solved the second strawberry pie.
“It’s not right.” Seeing Zheng Mingyi eating so delicious, Jiang Chijing picked up a piece of strawberry pie and took a bite. “He may be planning revenge.”
Lao Jiu was sentenced to life imprisonment and had to be kept in jail for a long, long time. The prison is his whole world, and he can’t bear to suddenly fall from the top of the food chain to the bottom of the ridicule.
“I will guard against him.” Zheng Mingyi resolved the strawberry pie very quickly, and the box was empty in a blink of an eye, only Jiang Chijing had a small piece left in his hand.
“Then you must be careful.” Jiang Chijing said, “Barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes. If he wants to make trouble, he will probably ignore it.”
Zheng Mingyi absently responded with an “um”, staring straight at the small half of strawberry pie in Jiang Chijing’s hand.
“What are you doing?” Jiang Chijing finally noticed Zheng Mingyi’s gaze, “This is mine.”
“Yours is mine.” Zheng Mingyi unreasonably caught Jiang Chijing’s wrist, and directly leaned in to bite the last piece of strawberry pie.
The small strawberry pie didn’t seem to be enough for Zheng Mingyi’s appetite. After hooking away the strawberry pie with his tongue, he licked Jiang Chijing’s fingers again, as if to lick all the sweetness away.
The fingertips were the sensitive area. Jiang Chijing was stunned. He immediately felt an abnormal heat flow in his lower abdomen. He quickly pulled his fingers back and stared at Zheng Mingyi and said, “How many times do I have to say, here are monitor!”
Zheng Mingyi swallowed the strawberry pie in his mouth unhurriedly, and seriously commented: “The last piece is the best.”
Jiang Chijing said angrily, “Are you eating strawberry pie or me?”
Zheng Mingyi squeezed Jiang Chijing’s face with a smile, and the answer was already there.
Jiang Chijing shouldn’t make strawberry pie on a whim, this will only make Zheng Mingyi get an inch. Fortunately, after that, Zheng Mingyi no longer acted dishonestly. He looked at the stock chart intently and gave Jiang Chijing an analysis of the current situation.
The stock price of the old watch is still falling, but it has stopped the trend of the sharp decline, and is generally within the normal range, without causing large-scale panic.
The companies targeted by Guan Wei have been rising sharply since the original policy was released. However, they have suddenly appeared weak recently. They cannot keep up with the market gains. Some people think it is not good and start to sell quietly. Once the situation arises, it shows that Guan Wei is gradually close to victory.
“As long as Guan Weineng finds out the problems of those companies, my case will definitely be reviewed.” Zheng Mingyi said.
The stocks of these companies are all related to Zheng Mingyi’s short-selling case. If the company’s executives are suspected of manipulating stock prices from the beginning, all evidence pointing to Zheng Mingyi will become less credible.
“If it’s fast, about a month?” Jiang Chijing said.
Zheng Mingyi gave an “um” sound, but the ending sound of this “um” was a bit long, as if it were affirmative, but not completely affirmative.
Jiang Chijing didn’t think too much, after all, Zheng Mingyi couldn’t determine when the court would retry.
After three o’clock in the afternoon, Zheng Mingyi left the library, full of food and drink. At this time, there were only two hours left before Jiang Chijing got off work. He was boringly sorting out the books on the shelf, and it didn’t take long before Luo Hai came to the library.
“Headache.” Luo Hai found a chair and sat down, collapsed weakly on it, rubbing his eyebrows with his hands.
“Because of Yu Guang?” Jiang Chijing came to Luo Hai and leaned on a table.
“I’m really not sensible when I’m young.” Luo Haidao.
He didn’t say specifically what it was, but Jiang Chijing could probably guess that Yu Guang’s heart was on the road to heaven, just like a bear kid in the second grade, he would definitely be a little ignorant.
“Don’t you just like to take care of your younger brother?” Jiang Chijing said, “You will find it boring if you are too sensible.”
To be precise, Luo Hai would find it boring if he was too independent. Luo Hai likes the other party to rely on him, and Jiang Chijing is not at all of this character. He likes the space between the two parties, just as he knows that Zheng Mingyi has many plans in his mind, but he never asks the bottom line. , Because the time has come, Zheng Mingyi will tell him himself.
“Indeed, I admit it.” Luo Hai said helplessly, “It’s just that I can’t help it.”
“But you still have to pay attention, don’t spoil that brat too much.”
As soon as Jiang Chijing’s voice fell, there was a rustle on the walkie-talkie on his shoulder, followed by the anxious voice of a certain prison guard: “Doctor Luo! Is Doctor Luo there? Lao Jiu stabbed someone, please come to the factory. Here!”
