Chapter 44 (1/2)
Chapter 44 - Su Jingrou's situation
The night was as cool as water. In the sky, the round moon and the stars flickered, illuminating the dark night with its rays.
Xiang Yang and Lu Xinran walked side by side on the road, both of their expressions were very calm. They had just finished recording the statements from the police station, and there was already conclusive evidence regarding the kidnapping incident tonight. w.a.n.g Chunming, 'Brother Cong' and the others would definitely not end up well.
The two of them walked along the road. It was already past 12 o'clock, and there was almost no one on the street. Only their shadows could be seen under the street lights, forming a long shadow that overlapped with each other.
Lu Xinran did not say anything, and Xiang Yang also did not say a word, and the two of them continued to walk forward slowly.
”Beep, beep …”
At this moment, a taxi stopped beside the two of them, and a female driver revealed her face. ”Do you want to take a taxi?”
”Yes.” Before Lu Xinran could speak, Xiang Yang spoke first.
”Let's go, I'll send you back first.” After Xiang Yang answered the female driver's voice, he looked at Lu Xinran.
”Mm. Alright.”
Lu Xinran nodded slightly, and looked at Xiang Yang with a very warm gaze. There was a pondering expression on her face, as if she was considering something.
The two of them got on the car. Along the way, they still did not speak, and only until the car stopped at Lu Xinran's house did Lu Xinran say to him, ”Tonight … ”Thank you.”
”You don't blame me for not showing up earlier and making you feel scared. Why are you still thanking me?” Xiang Yang said with a smile.
”You fool, why should I blame you?” Lu Xinran laughed like a rose blooming in the night sky.
”Heh heh.” Xiang Yang snickered.
”I'm leaving, see you tomorrow.” Lu Xinran chuckled, with one hand, he opened the door of the car and stepped out. Just when Xiang Yang thought that she was about to leave, he suddenly saw Lu Xinran's head turn around, and like a little chick pecking rice, he quickly kissed Xiang Yang on the face, and then with a 'bang', he closed the car door and ran into the small district.
”Pop …”
Xiang Yang rubbed his face in a daze, and only after Lu Xinran had already disappeared from his sight did he mutter, ”To think that I was ambushed and couldn't taste anything, I really lost a lot of money.” He wanted to call Lu Xinran over so that he could take revenge for his sneak attack. However, when he discovered that the other party had already disappeared, he could only helplessly admit his defeat.
”Hehe, young man, your girlfriend is so beautiful.” The female driver laughed and said.
”She's not my girlfriend.” Xiang Yang said in a m.u.f.fled voice.
Don't worry, she'll be your girlfriend sooner or later. I think highly of you, young man, you can do it, you'll be able to take her down soon, gee, you two are definitely a perfect match. I've been driving for so many years, and I've also brought along tens of thousands of guests. The female driver laughed and said.
”Big Sis's eyes are really good.” Xiang Yang gave a thumbs up to the female driver.
”Haha, of course. Although I'm just a taxi driver, I've seen all sorts of people. In terms of vision, many people cannot compare with me.” The woman driver said proudly with a smile.
”Formidable.”
Xiang Yang gave a thumbs up.
”You're overpraising me. Right, tell me where you're going first, or else it'll be too much of a waste of time if the car stops. Wasting time is just wasting money.” Big sis driver.
”...”
”Tijun Community.”
Xiang Yang was silent for a moment, then silently told his the name of the area he lived in, thinking gloomily: f.u.c.k, everything is a trap. I was still thinking about being lonely in the dark and chatting with her more, so it was all for money.
… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … ….
When Xiang Yang returned home, he discovered that Su Jingrou had not come back, and he immediately became depressed, ”What kind of job did this woman find recently? Don't you know it's dangerous not to come back all night? ”
A few days ago, Su Jingrou told Xiang Yang that she had already found a new job, but she did not specify what kind of job it was. Only in the following days, Xiang Yang realised that Su Jingrou would either come back very late or she would not come back.
”Forget it, she's my landlord after all. I think it's better for me to give her a call and pay attention.”
Xiang Yang thought for a while, then took out his phone to call Su Jingrou.
”Hey …” Xiang Yang, is there something? ” Su Jingrou's voice was exhausted, but Xiang Yang could still hear the music ringing on the phone. Obviously, Su Jingrou was in the bar.
”Sister Rou, it's so late. Seeing that you're not back yet, I called to ask you, where are you now?” Xiang Yang said.
”So it's like that. Thank you for your concern. I'm at work right now.” Upon hearing that Xiang Yang had called him because he had yet to return, a warm feeling rose in Su Jingrou's heart, and his tone became much more gentle.
”Sister Rou, are you working in a bar?” Xiang Yang asked after hesitating for a moment.
”Yes, I am working as a manager in the Golden Radiance Bar at Golden Child Road. That's why I often can't go back to work at night. You should rest early.” Su Jingrou said.
After all, working in a bar is a bit of a mess. If there's anything that comes up, Sister Rou can call me anytime. ” Xiang Yang said.
”Mm, I know, thank you.” Su Jingrou was quiet for a while before he laughed out loud.
