Chapter 76

After Zhu Juanjuan finished his meal in a hurry, he put the porcelain pillow into the box and rushed towards Gu's mansion.She hoped that Qijiang would stand at the door to greet him tacitly, so that he could avoid talking to others.

Unfortunately, because of being hit by the board and drinking alcohol, Qi Jiang's movements became sluggish, and it took a lot longer than usual to take a bath.

And Qi Min knew from his father that she was coming tonight, so he pushed off all the outside entertainment, dressed clean and fresh, and prepared flowers, tea and snacks in the living room early.

When Zhu Juanjuan entered the door, he saw that he had changed his previous image of a dandy, sitting on the sofa and concentrating on reading "Sun Tzu's Art of War".

"Juanjuan, long time no see. It's been almost two months since I came back to my house last time."

"I have to work during the day now, so I really don't have that much time to go shopping."

Not reconciled to being idle at home, she persuaded her parents to teach in a school far away from home.

Qi Ming then changed the subject: "You came to my house tonight because of your second brother?"

She was a little embarrassed, "I... came to return something. Where is Qi Jiang?"

He pointed to Qijiang's room: "I'm hiding from you in there. I was fooling around in Tianjin, my father beat me up, and I drank too much when I couldn't think about it for a while."

Zhu Juanjuan was holding the box, her hands were shaking slightly.

Qijiang is honest, kind, and knowledgeable. Is it just a superficial phenomenon?

She was very puzzled: Why did Qi Min become a prodigal son, but Qi Jiang became depraved instead?
She remembered her father's warning: The young masters of the Gu family, except for the third child who is not yet an adult, are not good people.

In order to maintain her friend's dignity, she opened her mouth to defend: "There must be a misunderstanding here. He is not such a person."

However, when she said this, even she herself felt emboldened.

Originally, I wanted to meet Qijiang first, so that I could unify that this porcelain pillow was bought from Tianjin, and she borrowed it temporarily to appreciate it, and returned it at night.In this way, at least he can save face with his father, minus the punishment.

She didn't expect him to give such an unbearable reason, which made her powerless.

Walking heavily towards Qijiang's room, he found that the door was actually closed: with a slight push, it opened.

There was no one in there, and the lights were not turned on, only the dim moonlight unevenly smeared on the wall and the floor.

The weird yellow taoism symbols were pasted on doors, walls, beds, and windows, wriggling like disgusting reptiles in the wind.

Zhu Juanjuan froze on the spot, threw the box in his hand to his feet, feeling disappointed in his heart.

These talisman papers were all about killing vixens and female ghosts, which left her speechless.

A cultured person who has studied abroad, an honest person who does not do anything wrong, who would be so afraid of ghosts and gods and karma?

Qi Jiang walked back slowly after washing, his hair was still dripping water.The button of the shirt he took by hand was very small, and it took a lot of effort to fasten it, so he simply unbuttoned it, thinking about changing into clothes with convenient buttons after entering the house.

When he was about to reach the door, his eyes widened: she had come early!

"Sorry, I'm here at this time. Come in and have a cup of tea."

She looked at the things that represented feudal superstition. "How did all this come about?"

Qi Jiang woke up after asking, and blamed himself for not thinking carefully, and shouldn't have let her come to the room.When he first posted it, he was very resistant, which made her even more embarrassed when she despised it.

"My mother asked for it from the temple today. She went to Tianjin and didn't come back for two days. She was afraid that something would happen to me, so she went to ask someone to tell a fortune..."

When she heard the word "Tianjin", she remembered about the geisha, so she decided to ask.

"Did you and Qilan go to a certain place in Tianjin to stay so long?"

A certain brother of hers had been tricked by her colleagues to go there a few times, but was almost kicked out of the house when her father found out.

I only talked about the battle at the station, and didn't mention anything about visiting that place. Isn't this a sign of a disturbed conscience?

She stared into his eyes to see if he was being honest.

Unable to hide it, he decided to confess.

"Accidentally drove in. My third brother and I only took a shower in it... ran away without wearing pants..."

Zhu Juanjuan fell silent after listening.

When she saw him in the bookstore for the first time, she was very happy, thinking that she had found a like-minded friend.The two of them do share many hobbies. They both like to read ancient books and foreign novels, as well as experience studying abroad.

Appearances, however, are always deceiving.Some people who are glamorous on the outside are shady on the inside.

Her older brother was a dignified man who traveled by car to give speeches, and articles appeared in the newspapers from time to time.I don't know how many young ladies in the circle admire him and work tirelessly towards the goal of marrying him.

Except for those who are very close, who would believe that her brother is a person with a lot of experience...

She just wanted to go home quickly, pick up the box on the ground quickly, and teach him to lie at the same time.

"I brought you a porcelain pillow tonight. You take it and explain it to your father, saying that you bought it and I borrowed it for viewing. I have already told your brother. This will always make my father less likely to blame."

Qi Jiang woodenly connected the porcelain pillow, but couldn't hold it firmly, and the box fell to the ground.

She quickly bent down to pick it up.The night wind blew over, and she saw his unbuttoned shirt...

The aftertaste of the wine slowly surfaced, he was a little confused, he even forgot to dodge, and just stood boldly facing her.

Her face turned red, and she couldn't tell whether she was angry for him or ashamed for him.

To add to her embarrassment, his trousers were rumpled.Shoes are left and right.

Sloppy, lying, disgraceful!
His refined and refined side was gone, leaving behind an unprecedented bad impression.

The ashamed and angry Zhu Juanjuan threw down the porcelain pillow, turned around and left. He realized the reason and went back to his room to change in embarrassment.

Seeing her walking away, he felt deeply lost, and sat on the ground against the wall, watching the moonlight streaming in from the window in a daze.

At this time, a dark figure came in from the door, smiling and approaching step by step. "Second brother, I'm here to talk to you. Are you not afraid of ghosts coming to you?"

Qi Ming turned on the light, forcibly dragged him up from the ground, and planned to interrogate him face to face.

He turned his back, "Brother, just say what you have."

"You have also learned to do bad things in secret. You have the kindness not to pretend to be a gentleman in front of others. Miss Zhu was so angry that she cried tonight. She is so disappointed in you! Give up as soon as possible, give it to me, I can give you a big sum money……"

After hearing this, Qi Jiang pushed him angrily: "Don't even think about it!"

Qi Min fought back unceremoniously, and punched him directly in the chest. He staggered back and fell down.

In the past, the boss would not be his opponent at all.

Tonight he was boarded 48 times and got a broken heart, he was not feeling well, he was hurting inside and out.

Concerned about the brotherhood, he just pushed the eldest brother, who would have thought that the other party really gathered all the strength in his body to beat him.

"Second boy, are you so careless? As compensation, do you want the maids in my room to help?"

He struggled to stand up against the wall, and grabbed an inkstone on the table waddlingly: "If you don't roll away, I will fight back!"

After the unreasonable elder brother left, Qi Jiang gradually felt a splitting headache, and the injured places on his body were red and swollen, burning like pepper powder.

When he saw the box on the ground, he picked it up and opened it lovingly. Inside was a childish porcelain pillow with colorful glaze.He wiped the pillow smooth with his sleeve, put it on the bed, and used it as a companion.

The only mother who can be trusted and confides to, is in poor health and cannot be angered.No matter how embarrassing, no matter how painful, it seems that I have to get through it alone.
