Chapter 49 I Want You More

Jiang Si'er didn't know what had suddenly gone wrong with Lu Huai. He was cooking the beef brisket, but the next second he threw away the spatula and turned away.

"? You're not going to leave this mess to me, are you?"

"I can't cook! You don't have to trust me so much!"

"Lao Lu?! Where are you going?! Are you coming back for dinner tonight?"

In the bathroom, Lu Huai also turned on the faucet and lowered his head to wash his hands.

She said she appreciated it.

She said Manager Gao felt the same way she did about him.

Just admiring?
-

When Lu Huai came out, Jiang Sier had already turned off the fire in the kitchen. She was sitting on the sofa and making a phone call. Seeing him come out, she asked with a slightly uncomfortable look, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay, go wash your hands."

Jiang Sier looked at the faucet in the kitchen. So, it was just a decoration???

Lu Huai also turned on the fire again. The beef brisket would take a long time to stew, so he didn't need to keep an eye on it. He went back to the living room and sat down. A Korean variety show was still playing on TV. The guests this time were the FINE boy band, and Pei Du's face just flashed by.

Almost at the same time, Lu Huai also heard Jiang Sier asking the person on the other end of the phone, "Are you sure you'll be back on the third day of the junior high school? I'll pick you up at the airport then."

"Driver? The driver is on holiday. Why don't you want your boss to drive you personally?"

"No, it's not safe for you to be alone. I have to go get you."

It’s Pei Du.

The only person who could make Jiang Sier go to pick him up specially was Pei Du.

"Ok, I know."

"Me?" Not knowing what Pei Du asked, Jiang Si'er glanced at him secretly, and Lu Huai also retracted his glance and watched the program on TV with a focused expression.

With a light cough, Jiang Sier whispered back, "I'm not home."

"Ah?" Pei Du: "Is my sister out shopping?"

"No. I'm at a friend's house waiting for the New Year's Eve dinner."

“?” Pei Du was puzzled. Does Jiang Sier have any friends in Beijing?
As far as he knew, it seemed that there wasn't.

Children like to ask questions, so Jiang Sier couldn't help but whisper to him: "Oh, it's Lu Huaiye's house."

In an instant, the boy who was chattering on the other end of the phone suddenly became quiet, and there was complete silence on the other end of the phone.

Jiang Sier: "I'll go home after dinner and watching the Spring Festival Gala."

No matter how soft her voice was, Lu Huai was sitting diagonally opposite her, so he could still hear what she said vaguely.

I don’t know what the person on the other end said. Jiang Sier responded randomly and ended the call.

"Do you like this show?" After the call, she saw that he seemed to be very absorbed in watching it, so she said, "You haven't been on a variety show yet, have you? Do you want me to arrange one for you next year?"

"For example, the reality show that Pei Du participated in has some competition and games, and the audience still likes it very much. You can go and try it."

"No." Staring at the young man running wildly on the screen, Lu Huai also said softly: "Pei Du is young and has good physical strength. I can't compare with him. My brain is not as flexible as his in playing games. I am rigid and can only act. If the broadcast response is mediocre, it will cause trouble for you, and we will have to do emergency public relations. Let's forget it. I... feel sorry for you."

"..."

It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved by these words.

"If you say another two words, I'll cry." Jiang Sier wiped his eyes pretentiously and patted his shoulder: "Teacher Lu, you have improved. You finally learned to feel sorry for my money!"

The next second, Jiang Sier came over with a smile, "But I have to say, this sounds quite green tea at first glance."

"You should play less with Shen Jinmo in the future. Your speech now sounds a bit like his."

Lu Huai also pursed his lips and said nothing. Jiang Sier really didn't think much about it, just thought that he had been in contact with Shen Jinmo more, so he was "influenced" by this art.

But compared to Shen Jinmo, Lu Huai is still far behind now, he is just barely at the entry level, if you don't listen carefully you won't be able to tell. Fortunately, Lu Huai's poisoning is not too serious, he can still be rescued.

"Be good, stay away from him next time, or I will get itchy if you keep talking to me like this."

"Itchy hands?"

Jiang Sier smiled friendly: "I want to slap you in the mouth."

Lu Huai also: "..."

Outside the window, the sun was setting and the sky was slowly getting darker. When the Spring Festival Gala started, Lu Huai was still showing off his skills in the kitchen.

When Jiang Sier smelled the aroma, he completely gave up the idea of ​​ordering takeout.

"By the way, why didn't you perform on the Spring Festival Gala? Didn't you receive an invitation?" Jiang Sier did not forget to promise him, "Your good days are still ahead of you if you follow me. Next year, next year I will arrange for you to perform on the Spring Festival Gala!"

This is the stage that all celebrity artists dream of.

Just being on this stage is enough for fans to brag about it for three years.

"I don't have such plan." Lu Huai also reacted indifferently to her pancake and said he didn't want to eat it.

Jiang Sier frowned: "Why?"

"I'm an actor, and there's no show that suits me."

"You can sing. It's a chorus after all, and no one can tell that your singing is bad. I'll hire a million-dollar tuner for you! Don't worry, no matter how bad it sounds, it can be fixed! For you, I'm willing to spend the money."

"Leave professional matters to professionals. There is no shortage of singers in the entertainment industry."

"Hiss, it seems so." But she didn't give up, "Then go and perform a skit."

"I don't have any comedic effect. According to what you said, it's New Year's Day, and seeing my face like this should be unlucky."

"..."The boomerang hit Jiang Sier straight in the heart.

She had said this to Lu Huaiye a long time ago. At that time, the late emperor always asked Lu Huaiye to discipline her and bring her back to the palace. She gradually became resentful of him and said this without restraint.

"It's been so long, and you still remember it." Jiang Sier looked embarrassed, "I knew you had a lot of dissatisfaction with me."

"No."

"Then why do you still remember it? Did you really write down all my 'crimes' in this little notebook? You take it out and look at it every now and then, and then tell yourself that sooner or later you will kill me to avenge yourself!"

Lu Huai had always been very curious, so he took this opportunity to ask, "What deep hatred do we have?"

"I took your throne."

"You are a princess, and I am just a subject. How can the throne be mine?"

"But the common people and the civil and military officials don't think so, including you. Otherwise, why did you feed me that cup of poisoned wine in the end?"

"That was a misunderstanding."

"Then my previous words must be true, right? Have you never had any ambitions for the throne?"

The air grew thinner, and the only sound around was the sound coming from the TV.

Jiang Si'er didn't think anything of it, he was just chatting casually, and he didn't know why the guy was angry again.

If he remained silent, something bad would happen. Seeing the kitchen knife in his hand, Jiang Sier swallowed nervously.

She trusts Lu Huaiye more, but human nature cannot stand the test.

Why don't you run?
While she was hesitating, a low voice floated into her ears from the kitchen:
"I did have ambitions for the throne. But after falling in love with you, I want you more than the throne."
