C46 (1/2)
Ling Chen gave her a deep look, then grabbed the car keys on the tea table and left Kingone. With the heavy slamming of the door, a gust of cold wind blew through the room, causing everyone's hands, feet, and heart to turn cold.
Jane Fan just stared blankly at the taillights of Aston Martin's car, not moving at all.
She didn't know what had happened to her. It was just a reflex, and she had never wanted to hit him. He had made a lot of efforts and sacrifices this time. Had her doubts really hurt him?
But why did it hit his face and hurt his own heart?
Perhaps it was because he hadn't been angry at her for a long time and hadn't given her such a cold back in a long time, so he wasn't used to it all of a sudden?
Jane Fan bitterly laughed at himself. She had spoiled and pampered him very quickly.
”Miss Jane, dinner is ready.” After being silent for a long time, Lian Xi slowly said a few words, being very careful.
Jian Fan turned his head away with a stiff expression, ”I'm not eating anymore.” She had no appetite at all, and her heart had been so clogged up from the moment his expression turned cold, like a loop at the height of a commute, that she could not get a single thread of comfort.
She put her hands on the back of the sofa and climbed up step by step. He closed the door, allowing himself to sleep in the blanket and clear his mind.
It was already midnight, and Ling Chen still had not returned.
Jian Fan woke up from his yearning and looked around at the empty space. He felt a bit disappointed. She went downstairs and poured herself a glass of warm water. The living room was dark, devoid of any light.
For some reason, she reached out and turned on the night light. He quietly sat at the dining table and sipped on his tea.
She was the only person in the huge villa. Although the heat was still on, she still felt an inexplicable chill as she looked around.
She took out her cell phone and found Ling Chen's number. Although she had never dialed before, she already knew the number by heart. Before the thumb could touch the name, it came down again. He repeated this a few times, but in the end, he still didn't have the resolve to press it down.
After sitting for a long time, he put down the cup and went back upstairs.
There was an Aston Martin parked in the shade of a tree outside the villa's walls. Ling Chen also stared at the screen of his phone, but did not get the call he wanted. As if completely disheartened, the car quietly and slowly headed down the mountain road.
The next morning, Jian Fan woke up. When he went downstairs, he had just bought some vegetables and hadn't even made breakfast yet.
”Miss Jane, what would you like for breakfast?” Lian Bian put down the food in his hand. He was cold but not lacking in manners.
”Sandwich and milk.” Jian Fan hesitated for a few seconds before asking, ”Your young master didn't come back last night?”
”Nope.” Lian Luo shook his head and went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
Life was still boring, boring, and Jane Fan did not have the mood to go out and do SPA shopping. All day long, she sat on the sofa and stared out of the window in a daze. His mind was in a mess. What he should not have thought about was entangled together like a muddled mess.
Seeing that there was less than a month left before the March Rain bet and she couldn't contact Ye Sha, would she really have to listen to her humble arrangements? However, she did not think that she was a simple person. She always needed to prepare with both hands, in order to leave a path for herself to walk on.
Chen hadn't been back in three days, and her dress hadn't moved. Had she even lost this opportunity to contact Yama?
Just as he was deep in thought, his phone rang. The number that flashed on the screen was Song Chengyou's, and Jane Fan remembered it.
”Hello.” Jian Fan's voice was indifferent and not in the mood.
”It's me, Song Chengyou.” Even though it was dark outside, the tone on the other end of the phone was still as sunny as ever.
”Oh …”
”Haha, why are you so down? ”Did you worry about Chen being away from home for the past few days?”
Hearing this, Jian Fan immediately lit a fire. ”If you keep spouting nonsense, be careful of your mouth!”
”Yo yo yo, the way you're talking is already the same tone. What else is there to hide?” Song Chengyou blinked his eyes vigorously at Ling Chen, who was sitting beside him, and smiled to the point where he was forced to move back and forth.
”Say it again!” Jane was really annoyed with him.
Ling Chen glared at him, and Song Chenyou quickly stopped smiling, apologizing. ”Don't be angry, I was wrong, alright? Are you bored at home? I invite you to be my guest. ”
”I don't want to go. If there's nothing else, I'll be hanging up.” Jane Fan decisively refused and was about to hang up.
”Don't, don't, don't, don't. I'm not going to my house, I'm inviting you to my law office. I've just arrived at a batch of models, so I'm sure you like them. ”
Go to his office? It was a good place. Jian Fan relaxed a little and asked, ”What model?”
”You'll know when you get here. Tell A-Jin to send you over, he knows this place. ”
”Yes.” Jian Fan replied indifferently. He was not interested in his model at all.
After hanging up, Ling Chen stood up from the leather sofa and checked his watch.
”I'll be leaving first.”
