Jiang Jiang was also curious about what Ji Xu’an wanted to say.
But after Ji Xu’an raised the partition, she didn’t say anything for a long time. Jiang Jiang almost thought she had misunderstood. Could it be that Ji Xu’an didn’t actually have anything to say to me?
Just as she was a little puzzled, Ji Xu’an suddenly took a deep breath, as if she had just woken up from her thoughts, “Jiang Jiang, I’m going to B City on a business trip for two days this weekend. I want to take you with me, are you willing?”
She didn’t ask Jiang Jiang if she wanted to, but asked Jiang Jiang if she was willing, which invisibly put herself in a lower position than Jiang Jiang.
Jiang Jiang was surprised that she had been silent for so long, and was actually thinking about this matter.
“Sister is going to work, if I go with you, would I not disturb you?”
But in fact, Jiang Jiang really wanted to go with her. After she came to this world, she had been in S City except for the ten days she stayed in the small town where Xie Xiao lived.
Even if it was only for two days, Jiang Jiang wanted to go and see.
“No.” Ji Xu’an heard Jiang Jiang’s meaning, and it didn’t seem like she really wanted to refuse. She breathed a sigh of relief imperceptibly, “It’s just going over to investigate, it’s not very busy. When I’m not there, I’ll arrange for someone to take you out for a walk.”
Seeing Jiang Jiang’s eyes sparkling, as if filled with anticipation, Ji Xu’an also curved the corners of her lips, “I’m worried about leaving you alone at home.”
After what happened last time, Ji Xu’an was anxious about a repeat incident. If possible, she wanted Jiang Jiang to stay in her sight at all times, so she could feel more at ease.
However, Ji Xu’an didn’t explain these words clearly to Jiang Jiang. She also knew that these thoughts of hers were a bit terrifying in the eyes of ordinary people. Probably no one would like to live under the surveillance of another person at all times.
Even if she was as well-behaved as Jiang Jiang, after learning about her control desire that far exceeded ordinary people, she would probably be afraid, right?
Ji Xu’an lowered her eyes and looked at the steering wheel. She actually didn’t like other people appearing around Jiang Jiang, especially when she found that those people still had some thoughts about Jiang Jiang, the anxiety and unease in her heart could almost swallow Ji Xu’an completely.
Ji Xu’an knew that this was abnormal, and she was trying her best to suppress the negative emotions in her heart.
I just hope Jiang Jiang doesn’t find out.
Jiang Jiang found that Ji Xu’an was always a little absent-minded at this time, and she became more and more curious about what Ji Xu’an had talked to grandma about in the nursing home just now.
It was a shame she hadn’t gotten a chance to ask Grandma earlier. Grandma would tell me next time, right?
Jiang Jiang turned her ankle, and felt that it didn’t hurt much anymore. She didn’t limp when she walked today, and she should be able to participate in the military training next week on time.
She suddenly thought of something and asked Ji Xu’an, “Sister, will Sister Fu also go with you on this business trip?”
Jiang Jiang hadn’t mentioned Fu Xiaoyin these days, and Ji Xu’an thought she had forgotten about her. At this moment, hearing Fu Xiaoyin’s name suddenly from Jiang Jiang’s mouth, the emotions in Ji Xu’an’s eyes faded.
“No.” Ji Xu’an glanced at Jiang Jiang in the passenger seat, “This project is not the responsibility of Manager Fu, she has other work to do.”
Ji Xu’an tightened her grip on the steering wheel, preparing for Jiang Jiang to ask other questions, but Jiang Jiang only asked this sentence, and then, as if she didn’t care about Fu Xiaoyin’s affairs at all, she lowered her head and looked at her phone, completely unaware of Ji Xu’an’s attitude of being ready for battle.
Was this caring or not caring?
Ji Xu’an couldn’t help but glance at Jiang Jiang’s phone. Could it be that she was sending messages to Fu Xiaoyin at this time?
But in fact, she was just overthinking it. Jiang Jiang was looking at the comment section of her new book.
She finally posted the first chapter last night. Ji Heyuan told her that new authors might not have many collections and comments at the beginning, so despite being nervous and expectant, Jiang Jiang waited until now to decide to see how it was received.
As soon as she opened it, Jiang Jiang was startled.
Jiang Jiang had thought that it was very possible that her book would have neither a collection nor a comment. Even if that was the case, Jiang Jiang wouldn’t feel sad.
As someone from another world, it was her first time writing a book in this world. It was normal for no one to like reading it. Jiang Jiang wouldn’t be discouraged. Who didn’t start from scratch?
But Jiang Jiang didn’t expect the situation to be completely different from what she thought. The new book, which didn’t have a single collection yesterday, already had more than two hundred collections today, and there were also fifty-odd comments.
Amidst a flurry of flower-scattering and support, Jiang Jiang also saw someone praising her writing style.
[Reader 1: The author’s writing skills are very solid. I feel like you understand the daily life of ancient times very well.]
Scrolling to the end, Jiang Jiang saw a reader named Eucalyptus give her a deep-water torpedo.
She went to check the backend again, and sure enough, there was an extra item in her income: a “tyrant ticket” income.
But strangely, the amount wasn’t the fifty she thought it would be, but a thousand.
According to the rules that Ji Heyuan told her, the author and the website split the revenue fifty-fifty, so this person didn’t donate one, but twenty?!
Jiang Jiang was stunned for a moment. She didn’t expect someone to give her so much money as a reward. Her first reaction wasn’t happiness, but fear.
As an author who hadn’t signed a contract yet, she didn’t deserve people to spend so much money on her.
Jiang Jiang wanted to return the money to the other party, but the website didn’t seem to have a private message function. She looked around but couldn’t find it. In the end, she could only reply to the other party’s comment and send a message to Ji Heyuan, asking her what to do.
But Ji Heyuan didn’t reply to Jiang Jiang’s message.
Jiang Jiang temporarily pushed aside her worries and continued scrolling through the comments, studying each one seriously. Even the simplest “checking in” felt precious to her.
She liked every comment and read them over and over again. That focused and serious expression made Ji Xu’an glance at her several times.
This time, Jiang Jiang really didn’t have time to care about Ji Xu’an’s reaction. Her heart was full of happiness and excitement that was difficult to express, so she simply replied “thank you” to each reader.
Ji Xu’an glanced at Jiang Jiang again. She rarely had times when she was completely ignored by Jiang Jiang. Seeing that Jiang Jiang still didn’t notice her, Ji Xu’an had to interrupt Jiang Jiang.
“I asked Secretary Zhao to book the plane tickets for Friday afternoon. You may need to pack your luggage a little earlier.”
Jiang Jiang raised her head from the phone screen, the smile on her face still hadn’t disappeared, her eyes were like two curved moons, with bright starlight twinkling in them.
“Okay.” Jiang Jiang replied obediently.
The atmosphere finally wasn’t silent anymore. Ji Xu’an took the opportunity to ask, “What are you looking at, why so happy?”
Jiang Jiang held her phone screen in front of Ji Xu’an, like a child who had obtained a treasure and couldn’t wait to show it off, “Sister, a lot of people are following my novel, and they’re commenting on it, praising me for writing well!”
So that’s what it was for.
Ji Xu’an’s tense body relaxed, and she raised the corners of her lips, “You write very well to begin with. What they said is the truth. More people will read your book in the future and become your most loyal readers.”
Jiang Jiang heard other meanings from these words, “Sister, have you also read the novel I wrote?”
Ji Xu’an’s face didn’t change, “Yeah.”
Jiang Jiang lowered her head and glanced at her phone, then looked at Ji Xu’an again, and asked hesitantly, “That reader who gave me a reward, it wouldn’t be you, would it?”
Ji Xu’an: “It was me.”
She didn’t turn her head, and Jiang Jiang could only see her clear and aloof profile. Seemingly, everything was no different from before, but Jiang Jiang still felt as if she sensed Ji Xu’an’s embarrassment.
She actually paid attention to her novel, not only leaving a comment at the first time she published it, but also giving her so much money as a reward.
Jiang Jiang didn’t know what to say.
Should I tell Ji Xu’an not to spend money on me?
But this little money was nothing to Ji Xu’an at all, and Ji Xu’an was kindly supporting me. If I refused blindly, it would only make the relationship between us seem distant.
In the end, Jiang Jiang could only say firmly, “Sister, thank you for your support, I will definitely work hard to continue writing!”
Ji Xu’an laughed, “Okay, I believe you.”
She looked at Jiang Jiang deeply, “I look forward to the day when you become a great writer, pursued and loved by countless people.”
Hearing this, Jiang Jiang’s mood also became happy, her face was full of smiles, and she tilted her head and stared at Ji Xu’an without blinking, her toes also swayed back and forth unconsciously, and her joy was beyond words.
Perhaps Jiang Jiang herself didn’t realize that before she knew Eucalyptus was Ji Xu’an, her mood was heavy, but once she found out it was Ji Xu’an, Jiang Jiang instantly felt no psychological burden.
Although she had always believed she could distinguish between real and fake emotions, after playing so many roles, perhaps at some point, even the actors themselves couldn’t tell if their feelings were genuine or not.
…
Ji Heyuan only saw the message Jiang Jiang sent her after getting out of the car.
Because of Ji Xu’an’s action of raising the partition, Ji Heyuan snorted coldly at the two as soon as she got out of the car.
Ji Xu’an ignored her, first instructed Jiang Jiang a few words, and then said to Ji Heyuan, “I’m going on a business trip this weekend, and Jiang Jiang is going with me. If you don’t want to stay at school, go back to the old house to live by yourself.”
Ji Heyuan: ???
When was it decided, why didn’t I know?
But she quickly reacted, probably what these two were talking about just now was this matter.
Okay, okay, afraid that I would go with you as a third wheel, deliberately not letting me hear, right?
Ji Heyuan rolled her eyes, “Don’t worry, I definitely won’t go with you, I already have an appointment.”
Ji Xu’an frowned slightly, “With Zheng Zhouzhou?”
Ji Heyuan choked, and her tone shifted from sarcastic to guilty. “I don’t only have Zhouzhou as a friend.”
While saying this, she also glanced at Jiang Jiang intentionally or unintentionally.
Jiang Jiang thought, could it be that she has an appointment with Qu Jingran?
She didn’t ask this question in front of Ji Xu’an, and Ji Xu’an didn’t ask further. Anyway, she would send someone to investigate what she wanted to know.
As long as Ji Heyuan didn’t make some unkind friends, Ji Xu’an wouldn’t care about her.
After separating from Ji Xu’an, Ji Heyuan heard Jiang Jiang talk about the comments on the novel, and only then did she remember this.
“You’ve already published it?” Ji Heyuan touched her nose, “Sorry, I’ve been a little busy these two days and haven’t opened the novel app.”
She spoke, while quickly opening the software to find Jiang Jiang’s novel, and after seeing the collections and comments clearly, she was also a little surprised.
“Not bad, Xie Jiang Jiang, it has good results.”
Ji Heyuan skillfully left a rainbow fart in the first chapter, and then smashed ten deep-water torpedoes for Jiang Jiang.
She happily went to see the tyrant ticket list, but found that she was actually only second, “Wait a minute, who is this person? She actually launched twenty torpedoes for you.”
Ji Heyuan was shocked. Xie Jiang Jiang was just a newcomer, and didn’t understand the rules of the website. She definitely wouldn’t find someone to help her brush the tyrant ticket list.
So this person was serious?
Ji Heyuan’s strange desire to win was aroused, “You wait, I’ll be number one soon!”
Jiang Jiang quickly held her hand, “No need!”
She pursed her lips and smiled, with a bit of shyness between her eyebrows, “That person is Sister.”
Ji Heyuan:”……”
Ji Heyuan suddenly felt like a clown.
So this was another game between the little couple.
She silently exited the comment interface, and quietly opened her WeChat balance to take a look, and finally angrily put away her phone.
As a poor person, she shouldn’t participate in this game!
Ji Heyuan wondered if she could ask her sister to reimburse this thousand yuan, after all, she was supporting Ji Xu’an’s girlfriend.
The two chatted and walked inside. Jiang Jiang didn’t know whether Ji Heyuan went to find Ji Xu’an in the end, and Ji Xu’an didn’t show any abnormality in front of her.
Ji Heyuan didn’t stay overnight at Star River Bay that night. Not long after Jiang Jiang returned home, Ji Xu’an also got off work.
Aunt Zhou was cooking in the kitchen, while Jiang Jiang and Ji Xu’an stayed in the study, one processing work, and the other holding a computer and typing next to the coffee table.
After writing about a thousand words, Jiang Jiang suddenly heard Ji Xu’an’s phone ring. She put away the computer and nodded to Ji Xu’an, and when she walked out of the study, Jiang Jiang vaguely heard Ji Xu’an say “Don’t worry about her.”
As she walked, Jiang Jiang asked in her heart who this “her” was referring to.
She was a little tired from typing, and sat in the living room to play with Little Bun for a while. Little Bun had been eating and sleeping well recently, and her body had grown very strong, and the fur on her body felt particularly soft.
When Ji Xu’an came out of the study, Jiang Jiang was sitting on the sofa watching TV. She casually raised her head and glanced, and her gaze paused slightly.
In that variety show, amidst the cheerful laughter, Ji Xu’an saw a familiar face.
It was Zhou Ziyi.
Ji Xu’an turned her head to look at Jiang Jiang, who was staring at the TV screen intently? And when she saw something interesting, she would reach out and rub Little Bun with a smile.
She probably didn’t know who Zhou Ziyi was.
Ji Xu’an didn’t bother explaining. There was nothing between her and Zhou Ziyi while there was online speculation, it didn’t directly name her, and Ji Xu’an felt it was none of her concern.
If she rashly spoke out to explain, someone might think she was trying to cover up something.
Jiang Jiang inadvertently raised her head and glanced, and found that Ji Xu’an was standing not far away quietly looking at her. She waved to Ji Xu’an, “Sister, come and watch TV with me for a while.”
Ji Xu’an sat down next to her, and their calves were almost touching.
Jiang Jiang was completely unaware. She was amused by the TV show and couldn’t stop laughing. When her shoulders shook, her body also leaned naturally on Ji Xu’an’s body.
Little Bun stretched lazily on Jiang Jiang’s lap, and then walked forward two steps, her little head pillowed on Ji Xu’an’s lap, and her hind feet were on Jiang Jiang’s abdomen.
Ji Xu’an remained motionless, letting the person and the cat lean on her. Jiang Jiang’s peripheral vision swept across her face, capturing Ji Xu’an’s upturned lips.
Zhou Ziyi had many shots, and every time she appeared, Jiang Jiang would observe Ji Xu’an’s reaction without showing any signs, but the expression on Ji Xu’an’s face was always very calm, neither deliberately avoiding it nor showing enthusiasm, as if that was just an ordinary person who had nothing to do with her.
Jiang Jiang couldn’t see anything from her face, and her interest faded afterwards.
Ji Xu’an was the first to notice the change in Jiang Jiang’s emotions, “What’s wrong, are you tired?”
“Yeah.” Jiang Jiang rubbed her stomach, “I’m a little hungry.”
Ji Xu’an was too good at pretending, and it was difficult to test anything with such methods alone. Even Sister Zhou’s reaction was greater than hers.
At least when Sister Zhou saw Zhou Ziyi on TV, her eyes subconsciously revealed a bit of shock and panic.
Sister Zhou, Zhou Ziyi...
Jiang Jiang couldn’t be completely sure yet, she had to test a few more times.
Even if Ji Xu’an was more intelligent than a demon, she couldn’t guess Jiang Jiang’s thoughts. At first, she really thought Jiang Jiang was just tired, but it wasn’t until she went to bed at night that Ji Xu’an vaguely realized that Jiang Jiang might be unhappy.
Because Jiang Jiang didn’t sleep with her.
Clearly, she was the one who said last night that she would sleep better with her, but tonight she didn’t hesitate to lock her out. Ji Xu’an looked at the closed door in front of her, and her nails slowly sank into her palm.
Was there something I did wrong?
Ji Xu’an couldn’t figure it out.
At this time, Jiang Jiang in the bedroom had already taken out the White Jade Exquisite Mirror and was secretly contacting Xie Xiao in the bathroom.
As usual, she was reporting on the recent situation.
When she heard Jiang Jiang mention Zhou Ziyi, Xie Xiao’s expression was a little strange.
“You seem… seem to care about this person’s existence?” Xie Xiao said uncertainly.
Jiang Jiang lowered her eyes and murmured, “If Ji Xu’an really liked her, and if Zhou Ziyi tried to reconcile, I’m not sure if Ji Xu’an wouldn’t change her mind.”
Was it really just because of this?
Xie Xiao felt that something was wrong, but thinking that Jiang Jiang was essentially an ancient person, she had lived in Ancient times, where the requirements for women were very strict since she was a child. Even women who remarried were rare here, so she would indeed care about the existence of exes, right?
Xie Xiao said firmly, “I think it’s impossible. According to what you said, if Sister Zhou is really Zhou Ziyi’s person, it means that Zhou Ziyi has always been thinking about Ji Xu’an. But. if Ji Xu’an really had such thoughts, she would have been with Zhou Ziyi long ago.”
How could Jiang Jiang have a chance to perform?
Jiang Jiang showed a thoughtful expression, “Is that so?”
What Xie Xiao cared about was not this, but another thing.
“Are you really not going to sleep with Ji Xu’an tonight?”
Honestly, Xie Xiao really admired Jiang Jiang.
She could actually make Ji Xu’an change for her… Clearly, Jiang Jiang was the one who was supposed to be winning her over, but it seemed like Ji Xu’an was the one taking the initiative in many things.
Jiang Jiang didn’t give a definite answer, “We’ll see.”
Xie Xiao was suddenly very curious.
“Do you think Ji Xu’an will not be able to sleep, and then come to you in the middle of the night?”
