love out of time

Chapter 32

The rain seemed to have started to fall again, pattering on the glass window, Jiang Ci bowed his head in silence, his expression reminded Liang Jingxing of the day of the funeral, it was also such a rainy day.

Liang Jingxing's eyes fell on her face, and he waited quietly for her to speak.

After a long time, Jiang Ci finally said, "This house is the only property that my dad has not mortgaged and has not been seized by the court. My parents lived here in the first few years of their marriage until I was five years old. It started to get better, and the family moved out. Later, my dad thought the house was commemorative, so he bought it... At least I won’t be living on the streets now.”

She raised her head slowly, her eyes were as deep as water, "All problems that can be solved with money are problems for me." She spread her hands, and said in a flat tone, "There is nothing left, so you have to hold on to it." what."

Liang Jingxing was speechless for a moment and could only remain silent.

"The 10 yuan has solved my urgent need. After paying the tuition fee, I won't be unable to eat for a while. But..." Jiang Ci paused, "You can't just think that I'm just because you lent me money. Everything must follow your arrangement..."

"A Ci," Liang Jingxing interrupted her, not noticing that he had changed his name, "Why do you think that I introduced you to Xu Jinhuan as an 'arrangement' for you, or in your opinion, it is more like an 'insult' '?"

Jiang Ci was taken aback, his eyes flickered slightly, avoiding Liang Jingxing's gaze, but he thought in his heart that the woman's name was Xu Jinhuan.To be happy in life is to be happy, don't let the golden cup be empty to the moon.

"I don't think it's out of good intentions. Your talents should not be wasted on unnecessary things like handing out leaflets. Receiving business drafts may be the most suitable way for you to generate income at present."

"Mr. Chen doesn't allow me to accept the trial of commercial vision too early, he thinks it will damage one's artistic intuition."

Liang Jingxing shook his head, "I think letting you expose yourself to the sun on the streets will do more damage to your talent and energy."

Jiang Ci did not speak.

"So you refused to help Xu Jinhuan paint, just out of concern for Teacher Chen?" Liang Jingxing stared at Jiang Ci closely, paying attention to the slight changes in her expression, "... Or, you have other reasons."

Jiang Ci clenched his fingers quietly, then released them, and finally replied flatly, "There is no reason, it's just that I don't want to."

Liang Jingxing sighed, he knew Jiang Ci, if he didn't want to speak, he couldn't pry her mouth open.

After a while, Liang Jingxing picked up his chopsticks again—this time, the noodles were really lumpy, "Well, I'll go and communicate with Mr. Chen, and you just tell me, would you like to help my company draw illustrations in the future?"

Jiang Ci looked at him, "Help you, or Miss Xu?"

Liang Jingxing paused, "Is there any difference?"

"Yes," Jiang Ci stared straight at his face, "help you, I promise."

Liang Jingxing smiled helplessly, "...Did Xu Jinhuan offend you before?"

"No, it's the first time I've met her." Jiang Ci picked out a piece of chopsticks noodles, which were sticky and tasteless after being left for a long time.

"So it's settled then?"

Jiang Ci didn't look up, and gave a low "hmm".
