The Reconciliation

Chapter 29 - power failure



Evening breeze, Yuxi was sitting in the car, and the air conditioner was low. She did not wear a jacket but did not feel cold. From time to time, Zhong Chen turned to look at her, but only looked at her dignified face, occasionally looking down, and wondering what was thinking .

Ever since she just called Jiang, she has been silent for half a word.

Zhong Chen looked at the apartment and finally couldn’t help but asked, “Hee, what’s the matter with you?”

Yuxi looked back and said, “It’s all right.”

She leaned back: “When will it arrive.”

Zhong Chen looked in front of her eyes: “There are still a few minutes. If you are tired, take a break first. I will call you when you are tired.”

Yu Xi nodded almost invisibly. In the dark car, Zhong Chen could barely see the outline of her facial features. Her eyes just closed and her head was tilted to the side. Long hair covered her face. Zhong Chen didn’t know her. Are you sleeping?

The car was quiet for a while, and only the occasional whistle was heard outside the window.

Yu Xi didn’t fall asleep. She was thinking about the words with Teacher Cheng and the change of Jiang Jingbai at that time. Before clearing her clue, she heard Zhong Chen’s voice: “Xi Xi, here it is.”

She said to turn on the lights in the car. Yuxi sat upright and opened the door.

Zhong Chenyuan wanted to follow, and Yu Xi turned her head: “Go back early.”

“Come and pick me up tomorrow morning.”

Zhong Chen was sitting in the car: “Can you go up alone?”

Yuxi smiled: “Relax, it’s all right.”

Zhong Chen nodded and said, “Then I’m gone, you should rest early.”

Yuxi still chuckled: “Hey.”

Zhong Chen Nunu sat back on the car, and Yu Ximu sent the car before she packed it into the hall. She stood by the elevator and watched the floor decrease, thinking of the scene where she took the elevator with Jiang Jingbai last time and guarded herself Yuxi dropped her eyes and stepped into the elevator.

The elevator stopped on the 17th floor. Yu Xi stepped out on a high heel, and the tap sounded in the corridor. Instead of returning to her door, she stood in front of Jiang Jingbai’s door and reached out to knock on the door. Dropped again after a few seconds.

After several repetitions, she took a deep breath and heard a sound at the door before her fingers touched the door. She immediately took two steps to the side and made the gesture of going home.

When Jiang Jingbai opened the door, he was looking up at Shang Yuxi.

With four eyes facing each other, no one spoke, Yu Xi coughed, and as soon as he was about to speak, he heard a voice from behind Jiang Jingbai.

“Jibai, what do you stand here for?”

Tao Yitong poked her head from behind Jiang Jingbai. She was wearing casual clothes, her long hair was freely tied behind her head, no makeup, plain face, and her face still smiled gently: “Fish?”

“Why are you here?”

“Come for quiet white?”

She said to Jiang Jing, “You talk, I’ll go first.”

Yuxi clenched her bag when she saw her, her fingernails pressed into her palms, her body was tight, and she smiled reluctantly: “Nothing to talk about.”

All the speculations just downstairs were gone when I saw Tao Yitong, and the eagerness to ask for a certificate disappeared. She was ridiculous, even if what she envisioned was true, what happened, Yu For her, it was just the truth of being late.

What can prove?

Jiang Jingbai had already made a choice at that time, and that choice was to leave her alone, so it was better for them to stand back to their places.

Yuxi’s face calmed down a little, and then she lowered her voice: “Mr. Cheng asked me to say something to you, and I would go to his house for dinner on the weekend.”

She added another sentence: “I wish you a pleasant evening.”

Yuxi bowed her head, and the small pain in her heart magnified infinitely after turning around. The pain felt straight into her head. Her body was tight, her waist plate was straight, her lips were pursed, and her expression was indifferent.

Jiang Jingbai watched as she took out the key to open the door, and her figure was about to enter. She walked two steps and stretched her arms in the gap of the door to stop Yu Xi from closing the door.

Yuxi looked up, her expression was cold, and her words were all cold: “Mr. Jiang, what’s the matter?”

Jiang Jingbai froze for a few seconds with her temperatureless eyes, and said at the end: “Yitong is here to get things.”

“She has just arrived, and soon–“

Yuxi lifted her eyes and interrupted her: “Does it have anything to do with me?”

The tone was not very punchy, and the usual questioning stopped Jiang Jingbai’s questioning. Yuxi opened the door and stood in front of her with a proud look. She squinted and said Jiang Jingbaipi smiled and smiled: “Mr. Jiang, what is your relationship with Miss Tao.”

“What will happened.”

“It doesn’t seem necessary to report to me.”

Jiang Jingbai was blocked by her words, slowly retracted her arms, and lowered her head: “I’m just afraid you misunderstand.”

“Misunderstanding?” Yu Xiyang raised his lips, and couldn’t reach his eyes. “Why should I misunderstand?”

“Do I know you well?”

Jiang Jing pursed her lips without speaking, and looked at Yuxi.

Yuxi leaned against the door, clasped her hands on her chest, and was imposing: “Are you all right?”

“No.”

Yuxi stepped back and whispered: “Good night.”

She slammed the door shut, Jiang Jingbai silent for a few minutes before closing the door, until Tao Yitong asked behind him, “Xi Xi lives next to you?”

Jiang Jingbai retracted his eyes and nodded: “Yes.”

“Have you got something?”

Tao Yitong laughed: “Hold it.”

“I’m leaving.”

Jiang Jingbai turned and said, “I’ll send you.”

Tao Yitong still smiled softly: “No, you look at how busy you are during this time. Mom said that you are working while calling you. I really don’t know what you are doing so hard.”

She finished looking at the apartment next door, and smiled: “Jingbai, haven’t you given up yet?”

Jiang Jingbai stood silently.

Tao Yitong nodded and said, “Don’t say I didn’t remind you.”

“You are not suitable.”

Jiang Jingbai’s jaw was tense, “OK.”

“You go back.”

Tao Yitong looked at her obsessed and still wanted to talk, but her eyes fell silent again. How did Jiang Jingbai come over the past few years, she knew nothing more. She took a deep breath and said, “Forget it, anyway, we You can’t listen to anything you say. You have to hit your head to break your blood to be happy. “

“It’s up to you.”

When she finished speaking, she pressed the elevator and walked directly into it. Jiang Jingbai watched the elevator door slowly close, her lips still pinching.

It took a long time for her to return to her apartment.

The light in the living room next door was on, but there was no sound. Jiang Jingbai leaned on the balcony and wondered if Yuxi was lying on the sofa, lazy, or complaining with Han Yisi about her scum.

It seemed to think of her vivid expression, and Jiang Jing’s stretched expression was a little loose, but the thought of Yu Xi’s expression and coldness made her lips straight again.

Yu Xi, who is separated by a wall, is taking a shower.

The warm water spread down her well-formed body, and she was standing under the shower, her long hair was wet and scattered behind her, and the scene she had just seen appeared before her eyes.

Tao Yitong, wearing casual clothes, stood behind Jiang Jingbai with a gentle smile, and the two were naturally intimate. Although Jiang Jingbai explained to her that Tao Yitong was only a younger sister, the two were still in an account book.

But what about that?

After all, they have no blood relationship. Tao Yitong obviously did not consider her to be an elder sister, but she was ambiguous everywhere. She was interested in Jiang Jingbai, so what happened to the two was not impossible.

Yu Xi looked up, warm water poured on her face, and penetrated into the skin. She was so comfortable that she could forget the tiredness of the day, but now it has failed. She is still upset. Yu Xi turned off the shower and was just ready to go out When the shower cubicle turned black, the whole bathroom turned black!

The darkness in front of her gave Yuxi a sense of blindness. She was busy walking to the place where the bathrobe was hung, untied the bathrobe and putting her hands on her body, and her hands were shaking.

The living room was also dark, and the surroundings were quiet. Yu Xi groped along the edge of the wall to the position of the coffee table. After touching the mobile phone, she was almost ready to make a call on Zhong Chen.

The phone rang before it was called, and Yu Xi almost threw it away.

Jiang Jingbai stood around Yuxi’s doorway. The phone was not picked up yet. When she was about to knock on the door, she heard a voice from the other side of the phone: “Hey.”

The voice was calm.

Jiang Jing Baisong tone: “Are you okay?”

Yuxi sat on the sofa, and the whole person shrank: “I’m fine.”

After she said it, she said, “I’m fine.”

“Fish Nozomi.”

The call did not hang up, Jiang Jingbai said for a few seconds in silence: “The power was cut off.”

“If you’re afraid, leave the door open.”

“Relax, I won’t go in, I’ll be with you at the door.”

Yuxi slaps her body, bites her lip, and can’t hear the panic in her voice, she whispered: “General Jiang.”

“I’m not afraid of black anymore.”

The call stopped abruptly and was hung up.

Yuxi turned on the searchlight on her mobile phone and shone beside her, her whole body curled up, the light shone her shadow on the wall, a bit mottled, she looked at her shadow and thought of the power cut in high school.

The searchlights in the class flickered constantly. She almost screamed nervously because she stood up because of the power outage. Fortunately, she saw Jiang Jingbai.

Her quiet side face was waveless, and she was still sitting upright without any influence from the power outage. She looked at the disorderly heartbeat slowly calming down, and then Jiang Jingbai turned to look at her.

Just that glance.

She seemed to find the backbone and could not help laughing.

Jiang Jingbai watched her smile and politely raised her lips.

The phone ringing interrupted her thoughts, Yu Xi looked down at the number on the phone for a few seconds and connected: “Hey.”

Jiang Jingbai was still standing outside the door, she whispered: “Yu Xi, can you open the door?”

Yuxi frowned: “What’s wrong?”

Jiang Jingbai thought for a long time before thinking of a reason.

She yelled, “I’m afraid of darkness now.”

Yuxi: …

The ghost believes you.

Fish hopelessly hung up the phone.

He called in again within a few minutes, and Yu Xi was furious: “What else is going on with President Jiang?”

Han Yisi immediately said: “Mr. Jiang?”

“Jiang Jingbai? She harassed you again?”

Yuxi **** off after hearing this harassment: “No.”

Han Yisi did not believe: “What did you mean?”

Yuxi opened her mouth and said, “Nothing. Why are you free to call me?”

Han Yisi murmured, “I’m afraid you will be taken away by the wolf.”

Yuxi: …

Because of the fear of darkness, Yu Xi wanted to find someone to chat with, and listened to Han Yisi’s puppet. Until half an hour passed, the mobile phone heard a prompt to run out of battery. Yu Xi was afraid that before going to bed without a searchlight, he immediately said: “Okay, I’m not talking. I’m going to bed. I’m going to film tomorrow.”

Han Yisi didn’t continue to say anything, but just told him again: “Did I hear everything?”

Yuxi rubbed her hot ears: “Listen in.”

Han Yisi was satisfied: “Then I’ll hang up.”

After talking, she hung up the phone, and the room suddenly returned to quietness. Yuxi had changed her posture during the chat. Now she slowly retracted her hands and curled up again, listening to the sound of the mobile phone’s power outage. She was ready to run to the room when the second sounded.

Halfway through the road, she suddenly thought about what Jiang Jingbai had said before. She turned on her cell phone and saw that there were still two missing calls and a message while chatting with Han Yisi.

Jiang Jing gave it to her in white.

-Yuxi, I just called the power supply bureau and they said that the electricity would arrive in an hour. If you are afraid, open the door.

Yuxi saw the short message footsteps paused in place, then moved to the door, put her hand on the door knob, and gently pressed down, a click, the door opened, and a person leaned against the door.

Jiang Jingbai squatted on the ground, leaning her head against the door, holding her mobile phone in her hand.

She had long hair and a low head, and Yu Xi glanced at her long neck and slender back when she looked at it, giving a sense of insecurity in such darkness.

Yuxi looked after a few seconds and said, “Why are you still here?”

When Jiang Jingbai heard the sound of opening the door, she turned to look at Yuxi. When she saw her expression as usual, she leaned against the door and stood up slowly. He heard Yuxi’s words and looked up, hiding soft light in the sharp eyes, the sound Qing Yan: “You are afraid of darkness.”

Yuxi chuckled: “Mr. Jiang, I said, I haven’t been afraid of the dark–“

Before the words are over, the remaining battery of the mobile phone is consumed, and the surroundings are completely dark. Yuxi stays in place for a few seconds and immediately flashes beside Jiang Jingbai, gently coughs, holds back the screaming to the throat, and then speaks again. The voice was shaking: “I’m going to rest.”

Jiang Jingbai bowed his head: “I’ll send you in.”

Yuxi didn’t refuse this time, and showed silence to show her consent. She took two steps inside, but Jiang Jingbai didn’t move. She couldn’t help but retract her leg, stood beside Jiang Jingbai, and asked, I go in? What are you doing? “

Jiang Jing had a slightly embarrassing look on her face, but fortunately, in the dark, nobody saw it, and she said slightly warmly: “My legs are numb.”

Yuxi: …
