Chen Xia

Chapter 14

Ye Mian hurriedly ran home. She couldn't empathize with Jiang Chen's humiliation at that moment, but she wanted to do something for Jiang Chen, even if it was just to hold an umbrella for him.

She stepped on her shoes and walked in barefoot, took out the gauze from the drawer, picked up the umbrella by the porch, and rushed into the rain screen with the umbrella in spite of the rain on her face.

The strong wind and the rain kept beating her face.

Normally, she would have to walk slowly in such slippery weather.

But now she ran faster than when she came, and she only wanted to get to Jiang Chen as soon as possible.

Because of the heavy rain, the fire was under control and no one called the fire alarm.

The crowd has not dispersed yet.

Everyone just watched in silence as the heavy rain washes away the smoky small building, not knowing how to comfort the young man standing in the middle.

A good home, in just a few years, it will be over, not even the body is left.

……

Ye Mian squeezed into the crowd, casually wiped the raindrops off her face, and raised her umbrella over Jiang Chen's head.

"Jiang Chen, take the umbrella." Putting the umbrella into Jiang Chen's hand, she took the gauze and wrapped it around the wound on his arm.

His expression was serious throughout the whole process, without any sloppiness.

After the gauze was wrapped, the bleeding stopped.

Ye Mian breathed a sigh of relief and stood beside him looking at the dark and dilapidated small building. Even though it was exposed to the heavy rain, the ashes were still floating far away.

In my memory, Jiang Chen was always injured, and this was the third time in just half a month.

She was so complicated that she forgot what she wanted to say to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen didn't say anything, his eyes were always gentle and calm, and he just quietly watched the whole process of her wrapping the bandage.

Ye Mian raised her eyes and found that he was looking seriously. She gently took the umbrella in his hand with her fingers, "Does it hurt? Hold the umbrella for me."

Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed, and he said softly, "It doesn't hurt."

Ye Mian knew how it was possible that it didn't hurt, but there was a strange feeling in her heart that still made her panic.

He looked at Dong Yulian in a blink of an eye.

Dong Yulian had already sat up, her body was still in a state of embarrassment, her hands were pinched on the hem of her skirt, even though it was raining heavily, she could still be seen shaking all over.

It seems that I really can’t stand everyone’s pointing fingers.

She gritted her teeth and stood up, stepped on her high heels and said to Jiang Chen precariously: "Achen, we have lived together for so long. It's my fault this time. I washed the clothes and returned the little girl in the photo to you, right? ? This matter is over..."

Jiang Chen stood up straight, his long eyelashes drooping, and he looked at her after hearing this, the emotion in his eyes was even darker.

"What kind of eyes do you have?" Dong Yulian seemed to be stimulated by this eyes, and her whole body trembled.

There was a hint of regret in his heart for the stupid thing he had done. He knew Jiang Chen would come back today, so why bother wearing his mother's clothes.

Jiang Chen stared at Dong Yulian, but still didn't speak, his eyes were cool, and the temperature around him was dropping, "The clothes you've worn, even if you wash them, are still dirty."

This is the only serious thing Jiang Chen said today.

Ye Mian clenched her fists, and the memory of Jiang Chen's past life came back.

The next moment, Ye Mian saw Dong Yulian move to Jiang Chen's side, and raised her hand to hit Jiang Chen, as if she was very angry, and compared her strength with each other.

"You little lunatic! You are the one who harms people! Why are they scolding me? Come on, I'm not afraid of you anymore. The worst is death. Your father, the incompetent man, fell in love with me. I still blame him for keeping him like this. Even if you give me the house even if you pay me some money, how long have you wasted my time? You Jiang family all owe me!"

He didn't evade in a hurry, or rather stood there and let her hit her. He only pulled Ye Mian aside.

The long nails scratched across his chin, instantly causing several bright red scratches.

Ye Mian's heart trembled and she stared blankly at his appearance at this moment.

His mind went blank for a moment, the anger that was already there surged upwards, and reason was completely forgotten.

Ye Mian threw away the umbrella in her hand, grabbed Dong Yulian's hand hard, and pushed her aside.

Dong Yulian didn't react. She tilted her high heels and screamed, her voice sharp and harsh, "What are you going to do? Why did you push me?"

Ye Mian stood in front of Jiang Chen and said the most ferocious words in a soft voice, "If the law didn't allow it, I would still want to hit you."

"This is not your family's business." Dong Yulian's attitude towards Ye Mian was far less bad. "Do you know what this little lunatic did?"

"I don't care what he did." Ye Mian interrupted her. It was the first time he encountered such a thing, and his eyes were red with anger: "Aunt Dong, you are not too young anymore, stop playing with fancy things, Since you don't want to be scolded, don't do things that make yourself ashamed."

"..."

So annoying.

What is playing bells and whistles.

Although this was true, Dong Yulian still found this sentence unpleasant. She was soaked in the rain like a female ghost, and took off her high heels to throw Ye Mian away.

Jiang Chen noticed this move and pulled Ye Mian behind him.

However, Dong Yulian was pulled away by the man next to her very quickly.

"Okay, let's leave when we've made enough trouble. Don't you think it's enough to show off?" It seemed that he felt embarrassed. The man's movements were very fast and his strength was not weak.

Dong Yulian let out a pain in her arm and calmed down.

The eyes of others were filled with disgust and contempt, which made her lose her momentum. She put on her high heels again and let the man pull her away in despair.

The atmosphere immediately relaxed.

Most of the crowd dispersed as the woman left.

Jiang Chen lowered his eyelids, faintly visible, unable to see his expression clearly, "Thank you."

Ye Mian was a little embarrassed, "It's okay."

Seeing the dilapidated building that was no longer habitable, Ye Mian asked decisively, "Jiang Chen, do you have a place to go?"

The two looked at each other.

The sound of wind and rain was really loud, even the setting sun was obscured, and it was already dark.

Jiang Chen raised his eyes to look at her in the dim rainy night, and said with a gentle smile, "Yes."

Ye Mian stared at his gentle features: "Really?"

But she remembered that Dong Yulian said that none of the money left by his father was given to him.

Jiang Chen smiled deeper, "Really."

He took a step forward, picked up the umbrella that Ye Mian had thrown away, rinsed the handle with water, opened it and handed it back to her, "Take it, it's late, go home."

Ye Mian was still a little worried. She dug into her bag and pulled out the white coin purse. There were still several hundred yuan left in it.

Without even thinking about it, she stuffed it into his hand, and said, "I borrowed this from you, so don't rush to return it to me."

Then, without waiting for Jiang Chen to speak, she took the umbrella and hurriedly turned around and left in the rain.

The reason I gave Jiang Chen a coin purse last time was to pay for medical expenses.

He didn't ask for it.

This time.

She told herself that she should regard it as an investment that is sure to make money without losing money. After all, Jiang Chen will be so great in the future. He can buy all the things that are out of her reach with just his fingers, and he will definitely not be short of her for this little money.
