Uncle is handsome

Chapter 3
On Monday morning, Ji Duo was woken up by the alarm clock. She opened her eyes and looked at the square ceiling lamp, and there was a blank in her mind.

What should I do today?Should I go to Xiaoqiu to discuss things?But why do you have to get up so early?She shook her head, but the drowsiness struck again.Fortunately, the phone rang again at this time. It was not the sound of the alarm clock, but a reminder.

Ji Duo realized something and suddenly turned over and sat up.The reminder clearly recorded what she was going to talk to the factory with today, what her appeal was, and even where the termination contract she drafted was placed.The most important thing is that Wei Jin will pick her up at eight o'clock.

She slapped herself on the forehead fiercely, so she couldn't die, but she just forgot such an important thing.Fortunately, I have developed the habit of memorizing, otherwise I will be embarrassed today.

Ji Duo hurriedly took a shower, put on makeup, packed her bag, and when she habitually took medicine, she suddenly sighed at herself in the mirror.Today is forgetting things, tomorrow will be forgetting people.You can remember things you forget, but what to do if you forget people.

At five minutes to eight o'clock, Wei Jin sent a message that he had arrived, and Ji Duo went downstairs on time.He looked calm on the surface, but in fact he felt like he was in a trance after a catastrophe. He should have breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was still hanging.

"Have you had breakfast?" Weijin asked her before starting the car.

"Did not have time."

Weijin took out a homemade sandwich from the paper bag in the back seat and handed it to her: "Eat it."

"You brought it for me?"

"It's not on purpose, it's just in case of emergency."

Ji Duo smiled and peeled off the plastic wrap on the sandwich, and said, "That's specially brought for me."

Not long after the car drove out, Weijin found out that something was wrong with Ji Duo.She was in a daze while eating, eating very slowly.After finally finishing eating, the wrapping paper was still in the palm of his hand, and he continued to look out the window in a daze.

"Throw it here." Weijin took out a plastic bag from the storage box and handed it to Ji Duo.

Ji Duo threw the garbage in his hand, temporarily put the bag under his feet, and turned to look at Wei Jin's face.He tucked one side of his hair behind his ear, and the curly ends hung around his neck, accentuating his jawline even more.Feeling that she was staring at him, Wei Jin glanced at her while looking at the side mirror, and said: "You are not in the right mood today."

"Emotions?" Ji Duo shrugged, "You just say that if you talk less today, you will be done."

"It's not as simple as talking more and talking less, but there is something that you can't let go of."

Nothing can be hidden from him.Ji Duo didn't want to say it at first, but the journey was long and the highway was empty and boring, so he always wanted to pass the time.She touched the back of her neck, sighed and said, "I got up this morning, and I forgot all the things I have to do today, including the things I made an appointment with you."

Wei Jin frowned, he didn't think of this.

"My kind of amnesia has a characteristic, that is, the closer things are, the easier it is to forget. They are all sudden and unpredictable." Ji Duo said as easily as possible, "My kind of amnesia is different from ordinary people. , Ordinary people forget one thing, there will be a feeling, knowing that they have forgotten something. It is not really forgotten, but temporarily stuck. But my forgetting is completely disappeared, this thing never existed, and I will not Think again."

"But you still remember."

"That's because I'm used to writing down all the important things one by one, and sometimes I have multiple insurances."

"Good habit, very practical." Wei Jin praised from the bottom of his heart, "No matter who it is, it is good to develop this habit."

Ji Duo looked at Weijin silently for a while, then lowered his head, and kept picking at his fingers: "If you forget things, you forget them. What I fear most is forgetting people. The acquaintance of two people is not only about things, but more important." What matters is the feeling. Even if someone tells me in more detail what happened between the two of them, I still feel strange."

A hand suddenly reached out and pressed it on her hand.Ji Duo looked up in astonishment, and heard Wei Jin say, "It's all peeling, don't pick it anymore."

Although it was only a fleeting temperature, it still caused Ji Duo's heart to skip a beat, diluting the gloomy atmosphere just a little bit.

She raised her arms above her head, grabbed the back of the seat, and pretended to be joking in a lazy voice: "Don't be too surprised if I suddenly don't know you, or recognize you as someone else."

Even with only peripheral vision, Weijin can see that Ji Duo's smile is completely different from usual, not even a mask, but a piece of paper barely covering his emotions.And he chose to blow the paper off, he stretched out his right hand and patted Ji Duo's head, and said, "It's okay, even if there is such a day, I still remember you, at worst, I will get to know you again."

"Won't you pretend that you don't know me?" Ji Duo lowered his eyes under his palm, and his voice became lower and lower.

"will not."

Wei Jin's words must have made Ji Duo's eyes swell a little, but she tried to breathe in and out, holding back her tears.She has always had shallow eye sockets and shed tears easily. In fact, she is not that crying-loving in nature, so she is sometimes embarrassed.Obviously I didn't want to cry, but I kept crying, and in the end I couldn't express what I wanted to express.She had lost control once before in front of Wei Jin, and she didn't want to give the impression of crying.

And what Ji Duo felt was a force that completely dispelled the dark clouds that had been pressing on her head since she opened her eyes in the morning.She tried her best to cheer up, leaned her upper body forward, wanted to see Wei Jin's face as much as possible, and resumed her usual brisk tone: "That's fine, as long as you are willing to know me, I believe..."

She suddenly turned her eyes, pursed her lips and leaned back on the chair back, unable to hide the curvature of her mouth, but she still didn't continue speaking.

Ji Duo believes that no matter how many times she repeats it, as long as she can see Wei Jin again, she will definitely be attracted to him again.

For Weijin, it was too easy to guess what Ji Duo was thinking, it was almost written on his face, so he didn't ask.Not only that, but he couldn't help but question himself in his heart, what happened to that promise just now.

He knows himself well and never makes emotional commitments lightly, but since he has done it, it is more than just comfort.

On the subsequent journey, Ji Duo began to tell Wei Jin the ins and outs of his study of design, which started from the car accident.The change of that car accident in Ji Duo's life not only left her with incurable sequelae, but also had good aspects.After listening to her, Wei Jin fully understood the word "legendary" she said before.For a girl in her 20s from an ordinary family, Ji Duo's ups and downs in life are truly legendary.

It was during the recovery period that I realized that I became very sensitive to art, especially painting. At that time, Ji Duo's body was fine, but his spirit was not stable yet.Because the hospital was too boring, and she had a headache after looking at her mobile phone for a long time, she bought some picture books online to change her mood.Before, Ji Duo had no interest in these at all, and she rarely even read comics, but when she flipped through those albums, she suddenly felt an indescribable excitement and joy.

She thinks she can understand, and she can decipher the concrete meaning from the abstract paintings.After that, Ji Duo consciously confirmed this change in herself, and she found that when she saw something or heard a certain sound, a picture would appear in her mind.She will be firmly attracted by beautiful people and things, as if all five senses have been deprived.Later, her art teacher said it was called synaesthesia.

After the operation, Ji Duo lost his memory, and a time bomb was planted in his head, but he had the key to another world.After she was discharged from the hospital, she took a sudden study of art. She obviously didn't have any foundation before, but her first attempt seemed like someone who had studied for a long time.No matter how complicated the still life is, it is very simple for her. She only needs to look at it once, and then look at the white paper. The painting seems to have floated on the paper. She only needs to copy it according to the picture in her mind.The only thing Ji Duo can't draw is realistic sketches of characters. She can't grasp the facial contours of people, and even the proportions are wrong.In order to meet the exam, she created a stylized portrait painting method.

Everyone in the studio called her a genius, but Ji Duo always felt that this word sounded too ironic.This is not what she wants, nor is it born with, but at a price. She doesn't even know whether she should be happy or not.

"Post-scholar syndrome." Weijin, who had been listening quietly all this time, suddenly spoke a noun.

"That's right..." Ji Duo became excited and couldn't help making gestures, "The doctor also said this word, saying that there are many such cases where a certain talent suddenly appeared after suffering a severe brain injury, and even Some people will suddenly learn several languages. However, the problem of the brain is the most complicated, and there is no accurate statement until now, but it may be due to the injury of the left brain, and the ability to compensate for the right brain has been intensified.”

Wei Jin nodded thoughtfully, but he was thinking of another matter.One foot in heaven and one foot in hell, those two years were indeed difficult for Ji Duo.

"But this actually saved me. My grades were mediocre at first, and I forgot about two or three years of experience, which made me feel like I had never attended high school. But I passed the art test easily. Got into a good school."

Ji Duo took a long breath and said, "In the past, I would occasionally think that I would give it all back in exchange for never being injured. But now I don't think so, if I didn't come out If the car accident happened, I would never have come to Shanghai, and I would never have met you."

"Is it so important to meet me?" Wei Jin glanced at her, his eyes became more serious.

"Of course it's important!" Ji Duo replied subconsciously, only then did she realize that the atmosphere was not right, she seemed to have said something serious, and immediately added, "I mean...friends! The fate of being friends is of course important! "

Wei Jin sighed with a smile. After meeting Ji Duo, he seemed to sigh more than he did in the previous year, but each time the reasons and feelings were different: "Things can't be thought of this way. If the car accident hadn't happened, you would have If you have a completely different life, you won't meet me, and you won't feel pity."

Ji Duo imagined such a life for a while, it was so simple that he could see the end at a glance.I go to any school in my hometown, get an ordinary job after graduation, and most of the people I can meet are from my circle.Will she really be with Lu Haiyang?Thinking of Lu Haiyang, Ji Duo couldn't help pinching his eyebrows.This assumption is too scary, so it's better now.

Although it can't be said that the past experience was good, she was finally able to accept the present life calmly and gradually felt its beauty.

This critical point was when she met Wei Jin.

"What about you?" After talking so much about her, Ji Duo wanted to change the subject, "If possible, would you like to go back to the past?"

"Do not want to."

Wei Jin answered quickly, his eyebrows twitched twice.He thought he was calm, and there was really no disturbance in his heart, but Ji Duo still looked at him with a probing look, which made him afraid to look at him.

In fact, Ji Duo couldn't tell what she felt, maybe it was just because Wei Jin answered too fast and too sure, which made her feel a strange feeling in her heart.She seemed to be able to see the transparent cover beside Wei Jin, although it was very thin and light, without any offensive power, it just flashed colorful halos on her retina from time to time like bubbles, reminding the existence of this film.But Ji Duo can't let it go now, if you care about someone more, you need to know more about someone, all the subtle performances will be infinitely magnified, attracting her to reach out a safe distance.

"Do you have ethnic minority blood?" She looked at Wei Jin's deep eye sockets and couldn't help asking.

This seemingly random question, in Weijin's view, is actually an extremely clever move, so he has to mention his family, family, and the first half of his life—things he doesn't want to mention.

Of course he could not say it, but that seemed too cunning.Hearing other people's stories and not sharing anything is not the way to make friends.

friend.Thinking of this word, Wei Jin couldn’t help but want to smile bitterly—because he knows that people in the world must know everything about friends, share their secrets with all their heart, so when he heard Ji Duo say “friend”, he would find it funny And sad.

"My mother is a minority." He replied lightly.

"So..." No wonder his facial features are so deep, Ji Duo asked smoothly, "Then where are you from? You don't have a strong Shanghai accent, so you shouldn't be a local?"

"I was born in Hong Kong, lived there when I was a child, and lived in several cities when I grew up. My father passed away very early, and my mother lived abroad all the year round, and there was a regular partner there." Wei Jin finished speaking , suddenly turned his head and smiled at Ji Duo, "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Ji Duo didn't back down at all, raised an index finger and said, "One last question."

"Say."

Weijin is ready. Ji Duo may ask him where he went to school and what he does at home. These questions are logical, but fortunately he has his own set of standard answers.

He heard Ji Duo ask: "Are you alone in Shanghai during Chinese New Year?"

It was so unexpected that Wei Jin couldn't hide his astonishment.But Ji Duo was quite satisfied with his reaction, and said with a lively expression: "When the time comes, let's go out and play together, how about going to Sanya? The winter in Shanghai is too cold."

She began to complain about the winter in Shanghai to herself, talking about going to a hot spring, talking about prices and fruits in Hainan, as if she had no interest in Weijin's past.This may be Ji Duo's true personality, it's always a thought.But Weijin suddenly felt that he was breathing freely. He silently looked at the unobstructed road ahead, and the signboards on both sides flashed by occasionally. On the contrary, the sudden disappearance of stress makes this peace all the more precious.

From the first time we met, Weijin noticed Ji Duo's sensitivity was different from ordinary people. He had no doubt that Ji Duo saw that he didn't want to talk, so he resolutely withdrew at the critical moment.

There was a trace of gratitude in Wei Jin's heart, which was mixed with some warm and soft undertones, which made him relax without his being aware of it.For many, many years, he had a hard time actually relaxing with another person, maintaining a standard state of pretending to be relaxed.

It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that he can't.Two people being able to relax together means that there is a dependent relationship between them. Whether it is relying on others or making others depend on themselves, Weijin can't do it.

But Ji Duo is an exception, she has repeatedly intervened in his life forcibly, Weijin thinks rationally, but also feels helpless, but it feels natural when they really meet, as if there was a place for Ji Duo in the first place .

If things go on like this, Weijin feels that Ji Duo is going to take root in his life, but he always firmly believes that this is wrong, after all, his life has no nourishment.

"Are you sleepy? Do you want to sleep for a while?" Weijin asked.

"Look, if I don't talk, you say I'm not right, and if I talk too much, you get annoyed." Ji Duo chirped, "I don't know how to sleep, it's unfair to the driver when people in the car sleep .”

Wei Jin smiled, habitually wanted to reach out to touch her head, but suddenly woke up after leaving the steering wheel, where did this habit come from.His fingers were locked on the steering wheel one by one, and he exerted a little more force as if restraining something.

It was already noon when they arrived in Yancheng, the two of them ate something casually and went straight to the factory.After parking the car, Ji Duo began to touch up her makeup. She stretched out the tail of her eyeliner, changed to a darker eye shadow, and put on a bright red lipstick.She looks like a strong woman, but it's a pity that Wei Jin couldn't help laughing when he saw her painting.

"Don't laugh." Ji Duo swept the brush across his cheeks, and gave Wei Jin a sideways look, "It's more confident this way."

Weijin still smiled faintly, and wanted to get out of the car with Ji Duo.But Ji Duo grabbed his arm and shook his head: "I can go by myself, you can wait for me in the car, it shouldn't be too long."

"you sure?"

"I'm sure and sure." Ji Duo opened the door and got out of the car, turned around and said to Wei Jin, "I'm not the kind of girl who likes to hide behind men. Besides, I said before that I asked you to help me fight, talk Keep it up!"

Wei Jin had worked as an intern in a watch factory for a long time, and he also knew how to behave in the factory. He thought that Ji Duo would at most look at his face and argue a few words at most, so it shouldn't be too much trouble.He nodded: "Okay, then you go, call me if you need anything."

"it is good."

Ji Duo turned around and strode towards the factory without looking back or hesitating.Weijin adjusted the seat to be more comfortable, opened half of the windows, the wind in the shade was softer than the air conditioner, he half leaned against the car door, watching the direction Ji Duo was leaving.

He didn't choose to follow up, he believed that Ji Duo didn't need it.A young girl who has experienced ups and downs, strength and control are very important to her, she will be afraid, but will not back down, so Wei Jin does not want to hurt her self-esteem.But if Ji Duo needs it, Wei Jin will not really stand by.However, ever since Ji Duo entered the office of the person in charge, she has been yelled at until her ears hurt.The person in charge with a sultry face couldn't speak well at all, knocking on the table and spitting, forcing her to back away again and again: "Our factory has a lot of people, high efficiency, and shipments are on time! Go ask, how many online celebrity shops Cooperate with my family? You want such a small quantity, who else can give you such a low price besides us?"

Ji Duo always responded with an awkward yet polite smile: "You are right, there are many people, high efficiency, low price, and on-time delivery... That's right, but you just didn't mention the most important point, quality. You I changed the material without notifying, so that I can't sell this batch of goods, how to calculate the loss?"

"Now that the price of raw materials is rising, I am also helping you control the cost! The difference in appearance is minimal! All your things are sold for a little money. You know how much the cost is, and the buyer also knows how high their quality is. Request? Open the thread like LV! Hypocritical!"

"Yes, I'm hypocritical." Ji Duo stood up and took out the contract drawn up two days ago from his bag.Xiaoqiu's boyfriend knows the law and revised it for her, "I made this contract myself. I won't let you pay for all the loss of this batch of goods due to your fault, but I can't give you all. Pay and settle the bill. I hope we can get back together, and I want to take back everything that belongs to me."

The person in charge stared at her coldly, but she also stared back without showing any weakness, and the atmosphere in the office instantly dropped to freezing point.Ji Duo tightly grasped the folder in her hand to maintain her composure, so that when the man across from her grabbed the folder in her hand and dropped it on the table, she was shocked and almost failed.

"I've seen people like you a lot. You sell rubbish, and you insist on pretending to be high-spirited! To put it bluntly, you just found a cheaper small workshop. Do you want to break the contract? Just say it!"

Angrily, he smashed the table and glanced at the contract, signed it casually, pushed Ji Duo outside, and called someone by name: "Settle things and money for her!"

Ji Duo was pushed staggeringly and almost tripped over the threshold. Although he was embarrassed, his eyes were still sharp.Before walking out of the factory, she turned her head for the last time and said to the person in charge: "I hope you will always remember me, because I will definitely show you how tall I am in the near future. But at that time, you are destined to still care about petty profits and do things With this 'garbage' in your mouth."

Amid the cursing voice, Ji Duo walked out of the factory without looking back, dragging a few large packages of end products.It wasn't until she felt the sun that her riveting strength dissipated little by little.Just when she stopped unconsciously and couldn't help but want to squat down to catch her breath, Wei Jin appeared beside her and squeezed her hand.

"give it to me."

Wei Jin wanted to take all those rough woven bags from her, but Ji Duo kept two bags in his hands, and shook his head slightly: "It's okay, it doesn't weigh much."

"Since it's not heavy, just give it to me." Wei Jin insisted, "I didn't say I wouldn't help you move things."

Ji Duo smiled and let go of his hand.Seeing Wei Jin, a tall and burly man, carrying those packages to the car, his back was a bit funny, but he looked very reliable.Her flustered heart gradually calmed down.

"Here, wipe your hands." Weijin put the package into the trunk, and as soon as he got into the cab, Ji Duo handed over the wet wipes.The woven bag was very dirty, and it was uncomfortable to touch, "I'm sorry, I made your clothes dirty."

"Small matter. Isn't this the task you gave me? Now the task has been accomplished." Wei Jin lowered his head and wiped his hands, and asked casually, "Did the solution go well?"

"Successful." After Ji Duo finished speaking briskly, she realized that the waiting time was too long for Wei Jin, and she was a little embarrassed, "Let me buy you coffee."

Thinking that there is still a long drive ahead, and that he really should take a break, Wei Jin nodded: "Okay."

Just his promise alone is enough to make Ji Duo feel elated.

He randomly found a coffee shop and sat down. Weijin drinks coffee with only sugar and no milk, while Ji Duo buys cappuccino with sugar and milk.She watched Wei Jin drink the pure black liquid without changing his face, as if he had already tasted the bitter taste, his facial features wrinkled together, and muttered: "Is it bitter?"

Wei Jin took a look at her tea-colored coffee, and asked, "Is it sweet?"

"Life is already very bitter, so don't eat more sweets."

"If you like to eat, you will love to eat, what reason can you find?" Wei Jin laughed, "You should add less, even if you don't worry about gaining weight, eating too much sugar is not good for your body."

"Then can you let me have a taste?"

Not knowing what happened, Ji Duo looked at Weijin's cup and suddenly wanted to take a sip.She had tried it before, but it was difficult to swallow every time, but this time, she was curious again.

Wei Jin hesitated for a moment, turned the cup around and pushed it to Ji Duo.

Ji Duo picked up the cup and only took a sip, then shook his head frantically, and shouted with his tongue, "It's so bitter." He returned the cup.Wei Jin wasn't sure if she had really drunk it, but was amused by her exaggerated expression, and asked her nonchalantly: "Where are you going to move these things? Can you put them at home?"

"You mean those in the car?" Ji Duo took a mouthful of milk froth, like a circle of white beard, but he didn't realize it, "You help me take it to my friend, she has plenty of room for it. Wait back I'm free, let's see if I can disassemble some parts."

As she spoke, she took out a folder from her bag, flipped through the thick dozen design drafts inside, and some of them had some sample models nailed to them, which were bulging.

"I mainly want to get these back. Although it may not make sense, I really don't want to put them there."

"understand."

"How's your watch going?"

When mentioning the watch, Weijin's eyes lit up immediately, and he began to tell Ji Duo his idea. He wanted to break the outline of the traditional round dial and turn it into an arc like a space helmet, so that the inner space would be more compact. Larger and clearer, you can place more three-dimensional and dynamic components.He intends to design a special component to complete a change of wild geese flying over flowers and slowly blooming with the least interference to the movement.Then add the music function, just to express the artistic conception of Yan Guo's voice.

Ji Duo gave him some suggestions on the use of precious metals and gemstones, but he didn't mention his desire to set up a studio at all.After all, it's still something that can't be touched, and she doesn't want to use it to divide Weijin's god.She now understands that a person is most attractive when he loves something from the bottom of his heart.Even if she is not the one to be loved, she can still feel the light.

Originally, he just wanted to have a cup of coffee, but he ordered another cup unconsciously. When Weijin felt that the conversation was almost over, he realized that it was already very late.On the way back, the sky gradually turned dark, and halfway through the drive, the street lights were already on. Weijin wanted to ask Ji Duo if he was hungry, and if he needed to go to the service station in front to buy something to eat, but before he could open his mouth, Ji Duo's head suddenly tilted to the side over his shoulder.

Weijin was taken aback, at first he thought Ji Duo was messing around, but after feeding her twice, she believed that she was really asleep.Because of the seat belt, she was very uncomfortable, and she might fall into the gap between the seats at any time.Wei Jin felt helpless, who said that sleeping in the car was unfair to the driver, luckily she was able to fall asleep after drinking two cups of coffee.Although full of slander, Wei Jin still kept his body as stiff as possible, supporting Ji Duo's wobbly head with his shoulders.

After finally reaching the halfway service area, Ji Duo slept well, but Weijin felt that half of her body was numb.He stopped the car, clasped the back of Ji Duo's head with his left hand, gently supported her back on the back of the chair, and slowly lowered the back of the chair.During this period, Ji Duo turned over, his eyes seemed to be opened a crack, but he just pouted and continued to sleep.Wei Jin leaned over to look at her, feeling overwhelmed and soft inside, not daring to be alarmed.

Ji Duo has a very attractive face, not particularly beautiful, but very recognizable, round eyes and a cat-shaped mouth that always looks like a smile, making her look a little younger than her age.Compared with her, he is indeed an older person.Weijin twitched the corners of his mouth in self-deprecating manner, and finally looked away.

Ji Duo didn't wake up until the car drove past the toll booth in Shanghai, his eyes rolled around in the car before he remembered where he was.She sat up rubbing her eyes and said vaguely, "I'm sorry, I slept for so long."

"It's okay, it's quite quiet. I drove faster than before." Seeing that she woke up, Weijin turned down the air conditioner again.

"My friend runs a bar on South Xizang Road. I'll tell you how to get there." Thinking of Xiaoqiu's temper, Ji Duo was a little embarrassed. If she saw Wei Jin, he would say something.

She first sent Xiaoqiu a WeChat message to greet Xiaoqiu with a ulterior motive, and there was an explosion over there, clamoring for dinner.Ji Duo felt that it was really inappropriate to forcibly drag Wei Jin to meet her friends now, and didn't know how to speak at all.

"What's the matter?" Wei Jin knew that Ji Duo would scratch his hair whenever he was worried, so he asked directly.

"My friend asked, do you want to go to her place for dinner?" Ji Duo wanted to see his attitude from Wei Jin's face, but couldn't help his heart pounding, "Forget it, I've already rejected her."

Looking through the rearview mirror, Wei Jin shifted his eyes towards her: "Why did you refuse? You can just stay and eat and it's over."

"That's impossible! I've troubled you for a whole day today. The postage and toll fees add up to so much money. I must treat you to a meal."

"must?"

Ji Duo approached him with his face up, and said word by word: "Must!"

There is really no way, this is not a way of saying thank you.Wei Jin smiled and did not shirk.

To be honest, Ji Duo really didn't think too much at first, she just needed a car, so she thought of Weijin, and thought it was a plausible reason, they could stay together for a day.Because Ji Duo doesn't drive, she is not sensitive to gas prices. She didn't think of these things until she passed the toll booth in the morning. How much does the long round-trip oil cost.

Along the way, as long as Ji Duo thinks of these things, she feels guilty - this is not contradictory to her falling asleep.

After entering the urban area, Ji Duo first directed Wei Jin to open a local restaurant that she often went to, and secretly glanced at Wei Jin's reaction while eating. After a while, he still raised his eyelids and asked helplessly, "What's wrong?"

"I just want to see if you like it..." Ji Duo pouted.

"Then you can ask me directly." Wei Jin scooped up a bowl of salted Duxian and put it in front of Ji Duo, "It's not bad."

Finally being affirmed by him about the taste, Ji Duo jumped up immediately, scooped up the soup and put it in his mouth without thinking.It was too late for Weijin to say "Beware of burning", Ji Duo screamed, biting the tip of his tongue and fanning the wind with his hands non-stop.

"Are you usually so reckless?" Wei Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Ji Duo dipped his tongue into the ice drink to cool down, and said vaguely, "That's not it."

Is it because I'm sitting across from you that I can't concentrate... Ji Duo looked at Wei Jin angrily, like a cat who is angry and furious.

From her reaction, Wei Jin could see something.He lowered his head and concentrated on eating, but there was a cloud of unresolved sorrow in his heart.He didn't know why he was in such a mood, maybe because he didn't hate Ji Duo.So Weijin had a premonition that if Ji Duo didn't control the flame in his eyes, they would eventually become estranged, and he felt a pity from the bottom of his heart.

After dinner, Weijin drove Ji Duo to the entrance of Xiaoqiu's bar. Parking was not allowed at the entrance, so Ji Duo didn't want to stay any longer.Xiaoqiu asked someone to help her carry the things in the trunk into the yard. Weijin didn't get out of the car from the beginning to the end, and saw the two girls flirting and whispering, obviously implying something.

"I'll just say hello, isn't that polite...just say hello, I promise!"

Ji Duo pulled and hugged, trying to prevent Xiao Qiu from approaching the car door, for fear that she would say something.However, Xiaoqiu was much more flexible than her, and finally got under her arm, opened the passenger door, and said to Weijin, "Hi!"

"Hi." Wei Jin nodded politely.

"Ji Duo didn't cause you any trouble, did he?"

"No."

"Sometimes she thinks it's all right, you have to worry about it. She always mentions you to me, saying you..." Ji Duo covered Xiaoqiu's mouth from behind, and dragged it away like a hostage: "Don't drag me ,Hey!"

Ji Duo quickly let go of Xiao Qiu, turned around and jumped into the car in two steps, made a face out of the window, and said decisively: "Drive."

The way the two little girls get along is actually very fresh in Weijin's eyes. They try to hide it, but at the same time they expose it completely, wrapping their sincerity in excitement, like playing a game.

Young people always treat their feelings with ease, but Weijin has never experienced this kind of ease.

Sending Ji Duo downstairs, Wei Jin finally felt that the day was over, and it was only at this time that his exhaustion came up a little bit.He turned on the lights in the car and said to Ji Duo, "Go back and have a rest."

"Thank you so much for today, it's too much trouble for you."

"You've said it many times, and you've invited the meal, so you can forget about it."

Ji Duo raised his eyebrows: "I don't want to forget."

After she finished speaking, she jumped out of the car, stepped back and waved at Weijin.It wasn't until Weijin's car turned around that he reluctantly turned around.At this time, a person suddenly appeared in front of her, almost sticking to her body, Ji Duo screamed in fright, and took several steps back.

"it's me."

With a dark face, Lu Haiyang grabbed her arm as soon as he came up.

Ji Duo covered his heart, and after letting go of his anger, he became out of breath. He threw off his hand neatly, and cursed: "It's late at night, what are you doing here?"

"Who was that person just now?" Lu Haiyang just watched the whole process, and saw Ji Duo's smile before the operation again, which ignited his anger, "Is that the one who repaired the watch?"

"none of your business!"

Saying this, Ji Duo sneaked a glance at the direction Wei Jin was leaving from the corner of her eye, it didn't matter if she didn't look, she thought Wei Jin should have already driven away, but found that the car stopped at the corner.

"Duoduo, how old is he?" In astonishment, Ji Duo stopped unknowingly, Lu Haiyang took a step forward and blocked her again, "He must have lied to you! Don't be stupid !"

"Lu Haiyang, don't say I don't remember the past, even if I do, I have already told you that I broke up with you. Whom I want to be with is my freedom, and you have no right to interfere!"

Ji Duo felt that Wei Jin should have seen her being stopped, and stopped to take a look because she was worried.She didn't want Wei Jin to get involved in this troublesome matter, so she wanted to run home.Unexpectedly, Lu Haiyang grabbed her arm tightly and said angrily, "I never promised to break up!"

"You don't need to agree to break up! Let go!" Ji Duo shook her arms desperately, the harder she struggled, the harder Lu Haiyang exerted, she couldn't help frowning, "It hurts... you let go first!"

Because Lu Haiyang blocked most of her sight, she didn't see clearly when Wei Jin came over.But Weijin suddenly appeared from behind Lu Haiyang, stretched out his hand and pressed on Lu Haiyang's arm that was holding her, and said lightly, "Let go."

Seeing Weijin, Lu Haiyang immediately turned his back on him, let go of Ji Duo without saying a word, raised his chin to Weijin, and said frivolously, "It's you?"

"Why do you want to come down, just leave." Ji Duo winked at Wei Jin and whispered.

Weijin just saw a man appearing suddenly from the side mirror, so he couldn't let go, so he stopped to observe for a while.Now he remembered Ji Duo's mention of being entangled by his ex-boyfriend before, but he didn't expect it to be true.

"It doesn't matter who I am, and I don't care who you are." Weijin's calmness is like a piece of solid ice, and Lu Haiyang's frivolous arrogance can't affect him, "But a girl has already shown reluctance , you shouldn’t pester her any more, let alone do anything.”

"Why are you pretending to be noble now? Who are you showing it to? Duo Duo is too innocent, you are so much older than her, you can fool her with a few sweet words..."

"Lu Haiyang, you are going too far!"

Ji Duo gave Lu Haiyang a tug, but he didn't expect that Lu Haiyang was grinning, and he shook his shoulders vigorously, but knocked her back two steps.Wei Jin waved his hand at her and said, "Go upstairs first."

"Go first, he won't do anything to me."

"You go upstairs first, be obedient."

Weijin just wanted to pat her on the shoulder, but Lu Haiyang grabbed his arm decisively, and punched his face unceremoniously with the other hand.

"Lu Haiyang!"

Just as Ji Duo blurted out her scream, she didn't see what was going on at all, Wei Jin seemed to just turn her body slightly and stretch her legs casually, Lu Haiyang sat down on the ground.

This process was too fast, not only Ji Duo, but also Lu Haiyang himself was stunned, and it was too late to become angry and sat on the ground dumbfounded.Only Weijin sighed as if nothing happened, with a faint helpless expression on his face, he stretched out a hand to Lu Haiyang: "Get up."

Lu Haiyang hesitantly took Weijin's hand, but his eyes suddenly flashed. The knee that seemed to be trying to stand up was actually falling backwards, and Weijin was pulled forward by him suddenly.He was indeed startled for a moment, but Weijin's body center of gravity was not so good, he stabilized his figure almost instantly and took the initiative.Lu Haiyang originally wanted to turn over and overwhelm Weijin, but unexpectedly he was caught by a backhand in a flash. Weijin pulled his arm behind him completely by conditioned reflex, and his knee was still on his back.

"It hurts, it hurts..." There was a sudden severe pain in his arm, which made Lu Haiyang not care about the humiliating posture of kneeling on one knee, and couldn't help screaming.

Only then did Weijin realize that he had really made a move, and quickly relaxed, a little bit annoyed, but mostly dumbfounded.

"Don't move around, it's just dislocated. Do you want me to pick you up, or go to the hospital?" He said to Lu Haiyang.

"Nonsense! Go to the hospital of course! You don't have to pick up my disability!" Lu Haiyang cursed, sweating profusely from the pain.

Watching all this happening up close, Ji Duo felt dreamy.She had been worried about Weijin before, because Lu Haiyang was a bad boy before and did a lot of fighting, but Weijin didn't look like he would fight at all.Especially when Lu Haiyang played tricks, Ji Duo almost jumped on him.However, she saw that Weijin dealt with Lu Haiyang so proficiently, without taking a breath, his posture was definitely a practicer, and it was incomparable to a brawler.Sensing that Wei Jin was looking at her, she still remained tongue-tied: "You, you, you... Does this mean you're not good at quarreling?"

Wei Jin chuckled: "This is not a quarrel, it's a verbal quarrel."

"So what you're good at is putting people down neatly?"

"It's not that scary." Weijin opened the back seat door, gave Lu Haiyang a urging look, and said to Ji Duo, "I'll take him to the hospital. You can go back."

"Or I'd still..."

"Go back and rest, it's none of your business."

Ji Duo knew that following him would only fuel Lu Haiyang's unreasonable arrogance, but he still couldn't let go.What she can't let go of is that she has caused Wei Jin a lot of trouble.

"Then... tell me when it's over."

"it is good."

Weijin didn't say anything more, and drove Lu Haiyang to the nearest hospital.

Ji Duo went upstairs slowly, collapsed on the bed, the moment when Weijin subdued Lu Haiyang appeared on the ceiling, she turned over, curled up into a ball, covered her face with her hands and giggled.

On the way to the hospital, the atmosphere in the car was very bad. Lu Haiyang groaned and uttered a few dirty words from time to time, but Weijin ignored him at all.

In fact, Weijin blamed himself a little bit. When he was calculated, he made a conditioned reflex action, and after all, he exerted a little bit of strength.In his opinion, Lu Haiyang is just a superficial and irritable young man, just like anyone on the street, although he doesn't make much sense, he is not a villainous person.

"How old are you this year?" After being bored for a long time, Lu Haiyang also felt boring, and began to find something to say.

Wei Jin glanced at him from the rearview mirror: "It has nothing to do with you."

"Of course it is! Dodo's business is mine! I have a responsibility to her!"

"responsibility?"

"You know about her head injury, right? She probably wouldn't hide it from others. From the day after the disaster, I swore to take care of her for the rest of my life!"

Aftermath?It was only later that Weijin realized who Lu Haiyang was. Although he knew the story, he didn't know the name, so he didn't know the name before.

So it was this ex-boyfriend?

This surprised Wei Jin a little. How could this person keep pestering him after such a thing happened? What was he thinking?

"It was you who was in a car accident with her?"

"it's me."

There is still a little proud tone?

"Do you think she will really accept you to take care of her for the rest of her life?"

"Why not?"

My God, Weijin can't help but wonder if he is out of touch with young people's thinking.He has never been a good teacher, and he is not interested in other people's affairs, but now he has to say: "She has forgotten the past and started a new life hard, so you have to drag her back and force her to think about it every day." Have you ever been in a car accident and faced a head injury? Do you think this is interesting? Is it good for her? Or do you think that she will never have any other choice but you, so you are remedial, responsible, and right? commendable?"

Lu Haiyang fell into a brief silence, but soon shouted recklessly: "I like her, and she liked me before, but she forgot for a while, and I will remind her."

"What if she never remembers?"

"impossible!"

"So you keep pestering her and disregarding her demands?" Wei Jin sneered, "You don't like her, it's because you are self-satisfied."

Lu Haiyang rolled his eyes: "Don't think that I don't know your tricks, don't think that you can get Dodo if you play tricks with me and try to get me in! Tell you, there is no play! I will let Dodo see To your true face!"

The car stopped outside the emergency department of the hospital, Weijin got out of the car with Lu Haiyang, followed behind to pay the bill calmly.In order not to lose face in front of his rival, Lu Haiyang gritted his teeth when he took the arm and didn't cry, his clothes were soaked in sweat.

Dislocation is not a big problem, just hang something on the arm and take care of it.Standing by the side of the car, Weijin asked, "Where are you going? I'll see you off."

"No need." Lu Haiyang picked a random direction and walked forward angrily.

Weijin hesitated for a moment, and still shouted at him: "I don't care what you think of me, and I don't bother to explain anything to you. But I hope you know that Ji Duo is not the kind of girl who can be manipulated by others. If you don't even know the basics If you don’t have any, don’t talk about liking. Also, of course you have the right to pursue, but you must have a bottom line. The premise of liking someone is to wish her well, and I don’t want to see you hurt her.”

Lu Haiyang stopped in his footsteps, without turning his head, he raised his movable hand and gave a middle finger.

The chicken talks with the duck.

Wei Jin shook his head with a wry smile in the wind, and sent a text message to Ji Duo: "It's all settled, rest at ease."

He got in the car and drove home.

Park the car in the parking space behind his house. His house is not on the section of Julu Road where there are many tourists, especially the section behind the house is very secluded.Weijin pressed the car lock, realized that he had forgotten to take out his mobile phone, and opened the car door to get it, and saw Ji Duo's reply: "I'm sorry to trouble you again. But your actions are too handsome!" Followed by a color text.

Hesitating between returning and not returning, but heard a slight sound, Wei Jin lowered his head and saw a lipstick rolling over from the bottom of the car.He bent down to pick it up, and then heard the sound of high-heeled shoes. A woman holding a mirror ran up to him and said repeatedly, "Sorry, it's mine."

Wei Jin handed over the lipstick, turned and left.Before he took two steps, he heard a slightly hesitant voice from a woman behind him: "Wei Jin?"

In an instant, Wei Jin had a bad premonition, which caused him to turn his head very slowly.

"Weijin, is it really you?" The woman ran up to him and said familiarly, "I'm Wu Ying. Wu Ying from Yinghua Group, do you remember?"

Thinking about it, Wei Jin didn't really want to admit it.The person he hadn't seen for more than ten years, the person in the world he didn't want to see, why did he appear again?

"I have a little impression, but I don't remember clearly." He said perfunctorily.

"What a coincidence, we were both children when we met last time." Wu Ying sighed with emotion, turned her head to look at the bungalow beside her, and asked with a smile, "Is this your home?"

She has a very beautiful face, which is in line with the current public aesthetics.Wei Jin probably knew her age, but her maturity was only added to her charm, but it didn't show on her skin.Coupled with her extraordinary attire and exquisite makeup, she shines brightly in the night, and she is a woman who will attract people's attention.

It's just that Wei Jin couldn't stop his mind from wandering, and didn't keep his eyes on her.

"It's late, you still have something to do, I'll go back first, bye." Wei Jin strode around to the front of his own house, opened the door and went in, without looking back at Wu Ying who had already chased outside the door.

It's so late, and you still clean up so meticulously, and you still use lipstick to touch up your makeup. Naturally, there are arrangements for later.That being the case, Weijin felt that it was only natural for him to chat less.

It's just that Wu Ying's face outside the door had already darkened. She threw the lipstick she had been holding in her hand viciously back into her bag, and silently gritted her teeth.

There are no light bulbs around the wooden sign of "today Watch Studio", which is very inconspicuous at night. Wu Ying looked up for a while, feeling shabby in her heart.

"I'm home, good night."

After thinking about it, Weijin still sent a reply to Ji Duo, he was worried that she would be stubborn and wait for a reply.

Sure enough, it was a second reply: "Good night."

A tiring and chaotic day is definitely not a memorable day for Wei Jin.Unexpectedly, at the end of the day, I still tasted a little satisfaction.

He couldn't understand where the sense of satisfaction came from, but he sincerely felt that today would have been perfect without the episode just now.

Although Ji Duo has an aesthetic talent, she did not come from a major in jewelry design after all. The advertising design she studied only gave her the basics of drawing software, which did not help jewelry design much.She needs to systematically learn machine painting and a series of operation steps of wax film casting.She began to enter into a crazy learning mode, reading books written by jewelry designers from various countries, flipping through the websites of independent designers, and earnestly studying various precious metals and crystals.To be honest, she has never put so much effort into her studies in her life.Because of this, when she just went a little deeper, she felt her white eyes.Satisfied with making trivial gadgets, she didn't even see the door of jewelry design.

Aware of the gap, it is the beginning of progress. Ji Duo started to enroll in courses, went to the university to sit in when he had nothing to do, and finished writing and drawing a book of notes in a few days.

Ji Duo was taking a walk in the university when Xiao Qiu called and happily asked, "Where are you?"

"I just finished a class, what's wrong?"

"I'll show you a place on the Songjiang side, come and have a look?"

Songjiang District is far away from her residence, and it takes two hours to travel on the road.But Ji Duo also knows that, generally speaking, such warehouses are located in the suburbs.She hesitated for a moment, but still agreed: "Sure, I'll go and have a look."

After tossing around, Ji Duo took a look at the warehouse and office area under the guidance of the intermediary. It wasn't very big, but it was very tidy.The office area is open and surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows. She likes the lighting best, which is suitable for painting.

"Good vision." She touched Xiao Qiu with her elbow.

"Of course. I know you shouldn't be too big at the beginning. The traffic in this place is not very convenient. If it's not possible, buy a bicycle. It's okay to ride to the station." Xiaoqiu leaned into her ear, "The key is cheap, There is no shop like this in this village.”

"What is the rent?"

The intermediary neatly reported a figure that was enough to scare Ji Duo, and he had to pay for half a year in one go.Because of Xiaoqiu's foreshadowing before, the gap in her heart was even greater.

She can afford this rent at the moment, but it won't last long, and will she only use it for Taobao business?Then her already meager profits would all be earned by others.

The money issue is still secondary. What really makes Ji Duo hesitate is that she is not sure whether she can do well, and she has no confidence in herself.So the pressure brought by these preparations was too great, and she was afraid that she would feel uneasy every day.

"Let's discuss it again, please."

Ji Duo dragged Xiaoqiu out, and the intermediary chased and lobbied, and managed to get away.Xiao Qiu folded her arms and asked her, "Do you still want to lower the price?"

"No. I want to...take it easy."

"Why don't you wait, the opportunity will never come again, take it first, I can lend you the money, and I won't ask you for interest."

"I know your intentions are good, you trust me." Ji Duo acted coquettishly, "But I really feel that my personal preparation is not enough. I want to study systematically for a while, and then test the waters in the circle."

Xiaoqiu gave her a sideways look, and said with contempt: "If you like a craftsman, you've learned how to make ends meet, right?"

I wanted to refute, but when I thought of Wei Jin, Ji Duo's face was already smiling uncontrollably.

Xiao Qiu rolled her eyes reproachfully, thinking that this guy was hopeless.

But jokes are jokes, Xiaoqiu opened the fun field, and met too many people, the first time she saw Weijin, she understood why Ji Duo said that they were not from the same world.Wei Jin's temperament is too peculiar, that alienation is definitely not deliberate, but comes out from the bottom of his heart, people around him will either be driven away by him, or will be attracted by him.Obviously Ji Duo is the latter.

This is not an easy battle, but fortunately Ji Duo is not an ordinary person, and one should never underestimate the courage of a man who survived a desperate situation.

"Sigh." Thinking of this, Xiao Qiu sighed, "It's up to you. But don't delay too long, career and love can be accomplished overnight once there is a sign."

"I know."

Having said that, Ji Duo found that her residence was really cramped, and she needed to buy a lot of machines.Such as wax injection machine, vulcanizing machine, gas welding and so on, she needs a workshop like Weijin.

She has to move.

Since you want to move, it's better to be closer to Weijin, so that you can pass by and say hello whenever you want.Ji Duo had made up his mind at first, but when he checked the rent of the nearby two-bedroom and one-living room, cold water poured down on his head immediately.By the way, she searched for the entire rented house nearby, and even gasped in fright.Originally, Ji Duo thought that Wei Jin should have no problem with paying the rent, but after seeing the specific figures, she couldn't help but worry.

It's a dilemma.To put it bluntly, it means that when the money is used, we hate less.However, she has been in Shanghai for many years, thanks to Xiaoqiu's care.She didn't help Xiaoqiu when she was in trouble, but now she really can't ask to borrow money.

After thinking about it, Ji Duo decided to call her family. When encountering unsolvable things, she would want to hear her parents' opinions.In fact, it doesn’t matter if it’s not an opinion, as long as you listen to their voices.

After the operation, the relationship between her and her parents has improved to a great extent. Not only that, but she has always felt that she is very sorry for her parents, because she was young and ignorant, and caused her parents to suffer such a big blow.When she woke up after the operation, she was surprised when she saw her parents. They looked much older. Although she lost three years of memory, she didn't know that her parents didn't grow old overnight.After that, I have to bear the fact that she will never be able to return to the same health as before, and I have to worry about her all the time.

Just because Ji Duo left them, she really had no choice.During that time, her parents were very careful with her, making N phone calls every day to confirm her location, wishing that she would do nothing and just be a useless person with peace of mind.She felt that if this continued, she and her parents would go crazy.So she insisted on coming to Shanghai and living alone, seemingly cruel, but in fact she wanted to reassure her parents.Fortunately, after a few years, the parents finally calmed down, but in Ji Duo's view, this calmness was a kind of restraint. The parents probably saw her resistance, so they chose to give in.The contact between them has become very little, and no contact is good news.

"Hey, Mom, what are you doing?"

"It's nothing. Your dad went to work, and mom is off today. What's the matter? What's the matter?" The mother's voice on the other end of the phone immediately became tense.

"There's something...it's not a big deal, I just want to discuss it with you."

"You said."

"I want to learn jewelry design, and then start a company."

There was a silence on the other side of the phone, as if he didn't understand, he asked hesitantly, "Aren't you designing jewelry now?"

"It's not like this. It's the kind of gold, silver and diamonds that are worth saving. For example, I can make a ring for you and Dad."

She managed to make her mother laugh: "That's not necessary. But if you want to learn, just learn, just a little, don't work too hard."

"I know...but..."

"Lack of money?" Mom finally realized.

"No, no..." Ji Duo scratched her head, she really couldn't open her mouth to ask her parents to borrow money, "I need a studio now, so I have to move. I was in the suburb of Songjiang before, and I saw an office storage One-piece house, but the rent is too expensive, I’m afraid I can’t make ends meet. But I just saw that the rent price of a single room in the city center is also very scary, maybe I’m going to move to the suburbs too. I can’t make up my mind, so I want to talk to you.”

"Look, how many times have I told you to save money, what about you? You always have plausible arguments, saying that you can't wrong yourself in your life. You said that you have earned a lot in the past two years, but you haven't saved any money? "

"It's a little bit, but... the rent is so high for a month, it won't last long and it will be gone."

"I've already said how good it is to come home, but Shanghai is too expensive."

"Mom!" Ji Duo raised his voice impatiently, "How many times have I said this, I like it here, and..."

"And what?"

Ji Duo bit her lower lip with a smile, and tentatively said, "Besides, I have someone I like here."

"What? Who is it?" Ji Duo's parents are still nervous when they hear this, and his family will never force a marriage.

"In short...he is a good person, completely different from Lu Haiyang, very mature and very secure."

Ji Duo's mother turned around in the room, thinking brokenly: "No, I have to tell your father when he comes back tonight, we have to go over and check on you."

"Ahhh..." Ji Duo yelled in a hurry, "Don't! Don't! I haven't written my horoscope yet. It's my unrequited love. People may not like me."

"That man is so good, how can he still look down on my daughter?"

"That's why you treat me like a baby." Speaking of this, Ji Duo felt a little sad.She wanted her parents to be at ease, so she never let them know about Lu Haiyang's entanglement, and the age difference between Weijin and her must be a bit big in the eyes of her parents, she had to convince her parents that this relationship would no longer be a bad relationship , "The point is, after meeting him, I want to become a better person. Instead of just muddling along like before, just wanting to hang out and mess around. I want to become a better self to match him. I want to become Someone who can accompany him and help him move forward. Even if I can't be with him every moment, I still feel satisfied in my heart."

After a long silence, my mother sighed and said with a little relief: "It seems that this time I really met someone who is tempted."

Knowing that the other side couldn't see it, Ji Duo still nodded heavily: "Yes!"

"Since this is the case, don't wrong yourself. You have a problem with your child since you were a child. If you have to do what you want to do, will I still not know? If you want to fool me simply, you will never let it go. Find Rent a suitable house in a place with convenient transportation, and we will subsidize the rent for you every month."

"No! I can't ask for your money!"

Ji Duo knows the financial situation of the family better than anyone else. Although his parents have some savings, their retirement pension will be fine in the future, but there are still many places to use the money when they are old, and the money must not be moved.

"Not all of our money is left to you," my mother said stubbornly, "If you are promising, you can pay us back the money you make in the future. It doesn't matter if you don't make money, just treat it as improving the living environment. Before I And your dad thinks that your small apartment is really not decent."

Ji Duo wanted to say something more, but sometimes his words seemed extremely pale, unable to express the true feelings in his heart at all.She moved her lips, but in the end she just said, "I will work hard."

Mom chuckled: "There are two things you must promise me. One, always put your body first. I don't care what kind of work you do, and I don't care how much money you make, but don't learn from others and use your energy in exchange. If you feel that something is wrong, go to the hospital for reexamination immediately, understand?"

"Understand."

"Second, no matter how much you need a car, you can find a driver, but you must never learn it by yourself. This is for yourself and for others. Your father and I are both old, and we really can't worry about it anymore."

"I promise."

"Also, you still have to think carefully about falling in love, observe and observe more, and don't fall into it like a fool."

"You're the third one!" Ji Duo said deliberately.

"You kid, you know how to find trouble." Mom laughed, "By the way, this year's Chinese New Year, are you coming home, or will your dad and I go?"

There are no elders in the family, so Ji Duo's family doesn't have so much sense of formality for the New Year.My parents also came to Shanghai to look for her before Chinese New Year, and they had a good time.It's just that if there's nothing wrong, she would rather torment herself than her parents.Ji Duo wanted to say "I'm going home", but he opened his mouth and suddenly remembered Wei Jin.She suddenly changed her mind: "Either... you guys come here? Anyway, I moved and the place is bigger... right..."

She said it with a guilty conscience, but her mother didn't think much about it, she just said, "That's fine, I'll talk to your dad later."

They chatted a little more, and at the end, mother said that the neighbor was coming to visit, and she was about to hang up the phone. After saying goodbye, Ji Duo suddenly called out again: "Mom!"

Mom was taken aback: "What's wrong?"

"I love you, tell Dad for me too." She was still not good at saying this kind of thing, and her face burned immediately after she said it impulsively, "Okay, I'm dead!"

She couldn't wait for a moment, and couldn't listen to her mother's reaction at all, so she hung up the phone in a hurry.

In the next few days, Ji Duo began to expand circle by circle around Weijin's residence, looking for a suitable house.After looking at more than a dozen sets, I recorded the surrounding traffic information, the advantages and disadvantages of the house and the price, trying to find the best price/performance ratio.During this period, she hand-carved a pendant in the shape of a ginkgo leaf and sent it to the jewelry store, asking the other party to mold it into a silver one to see the effect.

On the day when she went to pick up the pendant, Ji Duo stopped by Weijin's studio. She raised her hand to cover her eyes, and looked in through the French window.Weijin happened to come down from the upstairs, and when he was halfway there, he felt a figure outside, so he bent down and lay on the railing to look out.

Sure enough, it was her again.For some reason, Weijin had a premonition that it was Ji Duo before he saw it clearly, so he didn't know what expression to make when he really saw it clearly.

After the last time, Ji Duo really didn't come for a while, although he would occasionally send some innocuous messages, he would reply when he saw it, and forget it if he couldn't see it, but he never showed up.So much so that Weijin wondered if Ji Duo had woken up a bit after being ignored by him last time.Or maybe the unrealistic impulse has finally faded away, after all, for a girl of Ji Duo's age, there are many places that are more interesting than his place.

Weijin felt a little sour when he thought this way, he had to admit that there would always be extraordinarily quiet after the short-term bustle disappeared, he thought it was a normal reaction, but he was happy for Ji Duo from the bottom of his heart.This is his Neverland, but for Ji Duo, it is a prison.

Unfortunately, Ji Duo still came.

"What are you doing here again?" Wei Jin walked to the French window, pulled the latch above it, and let Ji Duo into the room.

"Just passing by, just to see if you're there."

Ji Duo nimbly jumped into the room, put the bag on the sofa familiarly, and found that there seemed to be a few new clocks in the room.But she was not sure, so she walked over to take a closer look, pointed to a particularly beautiful clock and asked, "Is this yours, or someone else's?"

"I just bought it." Weijin took a glass from the cabinet door and put it on the coffee table, "Go get what you want to drink from the refrigerator, anyway, you don't know how to be polite."

"You mean like I'm causing you trouble." Ji Duo pouted, "Then I'm leaving."

She really picked up her bag and walked towards the door, her eyes kept looking back, only to find Wei Jin standing calmly with her arms crossed, with no intention of stopping her at all.She put her hand on the doorknob, turned her back to Wei Jin and made an angry grimace, turned around immediately in a heartbeat, threw her bag on the sofa, picked up the glass and ran to the kitchen: "I'm thirsty." , drink some water before leaving!"

Wei Jin just wanted to see how she would end up, but he didn't expect it to be so simple and rude.He shook his head slightly, and couldn't help laughing.

"I'm really passing by." Ji Duo, who was wondering whether to drink orange juice or sour plum soup in front of the refrigerator, emphasized again, "I went to the jewelry store to pick up something, and I'll show you!"

She ran back with the cup, took out the small cloth bag given by the jewelry store from her bag, took out the silver pendant and her wax model from it, and handed it to Wei Jin: "The wax model I made by myself will be poured by the jewelry store." It's modeled. I don't have the equipment yet, so I want to see the effect first. It's not bad, isn't it?"

The ginkgo leaf is the size of the middle finger, the veins are slightly three-dimensional, and the shape is very complete. Although there are some problems with polishing, it is enough to wear.

Wei Jin raised his eyebrows: "What do you think of? Do you want to make something complicated?"

"Yeah!" Ji Duo nodded sharply, squatting on the opposite side of the table, with his head on the edge, and said brightly, "I'm looking for a new house, and I want to get a studio like you. Please help me as a consultant .”

She jumped up to turn over the bag again, turned her back to Weijin, and kept talking: "By the way, the tools I want to use overlap with yours in many ways, such as gas welding, cutting, grinding, etc., tell me speak."

She said it so seriously, which further proves that this is not a passing by, but a serious talk.She can always have reasons, so that Wei Jin can't refuse her.

"Those machines are very dangerous if they are not used properly. You must be careful when you first use them." Helping her look at the house information, Weijin found that these houses are all around him, from near to far, but also far away But five subway stops.

"Can I understand that you care about me?" Ji Duo rested his chin and blinked.

Her thoughts were clearly revealed, and Weijin couldn't figure out for a moment whether she was really a fan of the authorities, unaware of her exposure, or intentional.If it was done on purpose, did Ji Duo think that he was so confused that he needed to try again and again, or was he simply telling him.

But now, Weijin feels that he can no longer pretend to be stupid.With Ji Duo's patience and determination, now he is looking for a nearby house, and it is unknown whether he will pack up and move here after a while.As the older party, he couldn't let the little girl get deeper and deeper into her confusion.

"Why... are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?" Unconsciously, Wei Jin stared at Ji Duo's face for a long time in a daze. She was really hairy, and began to make various small movements.

"Ji Duo, let me ask you a question." Wei Jin narrowed his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"what?"

"Do you like me?"

He asked this question too suddenly, as if he dropped a bomb at Ji Duo who was relaxing and playing, Ji Duo had no time to dodge, instead he stood up straight slowly, his eyes widened suddenly, his lips moved to say something, but No sound came out.Although he still couldn't recover, his face was already red.

Wei Jin sighed helplessly, stood up, walked around the side of the table, got a little closer to Ji Duo, leaned on her and asked her: "Do you know me? Apart from my name and age, what else do you know? You haven’t even confirmed my name and age. You haven’t inquired about my uncomplicated family background, previous criminal record, and marriage history. What if I’m a liar? For the last few months, I was cheating money and sex, and then disappeared without a trace. You can’t find me at all. If you don’t know anything, you dare to bump into me. It’s not easy to like me.”

"No bad person would talk so much to me so earnestly."

Originally Ji Duo was really frightened, she didn't want to hide her feelings at all, but she didn't expect Wei Jin to expose it directly, she thought Wei Jin's character would pretend not to see.It's just that when she finished listening to Wei Jin's words, her rationality returned little by little.After all, it's just to persuade you to quit.I want her to realize her childishness and recklessness, and then re-examine her heartbeat.

She doesn't!
Ji Duo turned around and took another small step forward, and there was a table corner between him and Wei Jin.She raised her chin and said firmly: "I don't care how you can be sure that you like someone, maybe you can find out the eighteenth generation of the other person's ancestors, but I am not."

Wei Jin couldn't help but chuckled.

But Ji Duo didn't smile at all, her masseter muscles were tense, expressing her determination: "Maybe I don't know you enough, but I can gradually understand those things in the future. I trust my intuition, from seeing you I never thought that you would be a liar at the first meeting with you. If you have to give me a reason, yes, you were the only person who came to see me alive at the time of the car accident; you took me out to play and took care of me all the way. You are the one who cooks for me, drives eight or nine hours round trip for me, and fights for me. Maybe you don’t do these things because you like me, but at least I know you don’t To hurt me. So, why can't I like you?"

The remaining childishness in her body was completely released at this moment, with an impact that cannot be underestimated, making the atmosphere between the two of them flammable and explosive.Weijin sees a distant, strange, and other-worldly self in her eyes not to be outdone, clamoring in her body not to let Ji Duo interfere in his life.

"You are just relying on your intuition. You have to know that when a person wants to hurt you, there is often no sign. Your intuition will not notify you at all."

"Then you hurt me!"

At this point in the conversation, Ji Duo didn't bother to pretend to be mature and rational, she let her anger burst out of Tianling Gai, and directly threw out such a ridiculous sentence that Weijin heard.It's just that Weijin's smile didn't have time to bring it up, because at the same time as he shouted that sentence, Ji Duo suddenly rushed over and stood on tiptoe to kiss him.

He didn't close his eyes, and after the suffocation caused by the astonishment, his perception gradually became more sensitive. He looked at Ji Duo's curled eyelashes and delicate face full of protein at close range, and finally his heartbeat became chaotic.

After her heels fell back to the ground, Ji Duo's cheeks were already flushed, she pursed her lips, looked at him a little angrily, and then spoke in a little girl's tone: "You won't hurt me, I just know, so Don't try to scare me!"

Weijin adjusts his breathing calmly, his heartbeat has been mixed with his breathing, bringing a sense of precarity.He knew that he had lost his way, and he shouldn't underestimate a woman's intuition and a girl's impulse.

He made an excuse with the last of his rationality: "Do you remember what you said once? If a person always feels that he likes another person, he can also apply the theory of sincerity and gold stones. You will also feel troubled, won't you? "

This sentence really made Ji Duo's heart sink, she said that, she has to admit it.On the other hand, what I am doing now is indeed no different from Lu Haiyang.

The blush on her cheeks has not subsided, but the light in her eyes has dimmed a lot. She lowered her head slightly, and the whole portrait shrunk in size. She murmured and asked, "Then...then do you really hate me so much?"

As long as you say yes, everything can be settled.Say yes, say it quickly.A voice kept urging Weijin, wanting to push his head down.But Ji Duo's injured expression hurt his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe, and he was not used to saying words that didn't mean what he meant.

Weijin turned over, turned his back to Ji Duo, put his hands on the table, closed his eyes and took a deep breath.After opening his eyes, he saw the house information again, grabbed it casually, pointed to one of them and said casually, "That's it."

Ji Duo hadn't recovered from her senses yet, these few seconds were both ice and fire for her.The stamina was so great that her head felt dizzy.However, she was really afraid that Wei Jin would sentence her to death and deprive her of the qualification to work hard.So, she stared blankly at the house, a little confused.

The house is among the top three in terms of price, but it is relatively close to here, and it is within walking distance except in midsummer.

"The price/performance ratio of this set is not bad, the location is relatively quiet, and the surrounding greenery is good." Weijin explained self-consciously, "The key point is that although it is a bit more expensive, it will save you money for taking the subway and taxi every time you come here. "

"what do you mean……"

It was only now that Ji Duo figured out the meaning of his words, this is a passport.Her smile bloomed brightly like a flower: "At least you don't hate me, do you?"

Wei Jin's mood gradually calmed down. He sat back on the chair and waved to Ji Duo, asking her to come closer: "Since I can't stop it, I can only prepare. I respect your right to like, but I have mine. No one can break the rules."

"I promise, if one day you tell me clearly that you don't want to see me again, even if there is another [-] million years between us, it will be impossible; or, you have a girlfriend. Then I will leave immediately, absolutely nonsense Don't say anything." Ji Duo raised two fingers and made an oath, "If you find me annoying during this period, you can drive me out, this is your house and your freedom. Anyway, the future is long, and at this stage you only need to Just know that I like you."

At this stage?What else does she want?Weijin has a very clear premonition that the familiar peaceful life is about to be precarious.But it was strange that he was actually a little curious.

It has been a long time since he had any curiosity about people and things other than precision machinery.

"Also, what you said just now, and what happened just now," heard him mentioning Ji Duo, he already bit his lips unconsciously, and Weijin's heart had to skip a beat, he drank a saliva to cover up, "Don't say that to others in the future, it's too stupid, and you can't... be so crazy. Reality is not a fairy tale, not everyone you meet will not hurt you."

"If you like me, there won't be a next time." Ji Duo found the entry point very keenly, and he seemed to know that he was looking for trouble, holding back his smile, with a little complacency in his eyes.

Weijin's helplessness turned into a slowly flowing river, with the sun shining on it warm and crystal clear.Ji Duo is the sun, he can't avoid it, he called softly: "Fool."

"I'm leaving first!" Ji Duo decided to put it away as soon as it was ready, put the things in his bag and quickly walked to the door, "By the way, the pendant is for you, you can hang it anywhere you want."

She ran 50 meters in one breath before turning her head and waving her arms high, shouting: "There will be a period later!"

Weijin stood at the door, leaning on the door frame with his arms, and asked earnestly, "Do you need help with the move?"

"No need, I can handle it myself!"

Unexpectedly, Ji Duo rejected him decisively. After turning around, he bounced around and swung the bag very high.Weijin didn't close the door until her figure disappeared.

Be brave where you shouldn't be, and be stubborn when you shouldn't be.It is this almost stupid romance that gives her such terrifying power that she can infiltrate every inch of territory, even if the opponent is impregnable.

Picking up the ginkgo leaf and rubbing it in his hands, Weijin opened the drawer at the bottom of the table. There was an iron box inside, and a piece of cloth covered the surface to cover the things underneath. He opened a corner and put the pendant in inside.

Ding Dong!

As soon as the drawer was closed, the doorbell rang. Weijin thought it was Ji Duo who came back, and when he opened the door, he was already saying: "You forgot to bring..."

Outside the door, Wu Ying, who was wearing high-end fashion with a huge famous brand logo printed on his chest, raised two bottles of red wine in his hand towards him, and raised his eyebrows lightly: "Who do you think?"

The vividness on Weijin's face gradually became cold and stiff, and in an instant he had returned to the previous world.He turned slightly and let Wu Ying in: "It's nothing, why are you here?"

"It was too late when we met last time, and I didn't have time to chat. I happened to be passing by today, so I came here. Don't think I'm bothering you."

Wu Ying used the affirmative ending and was already wandering around the house.Wei Jin thought, passing by again, it seems that this is really an easy place to pass by.

"Sorry, take the wine away, I don't drink at all."

Weijin took out a mechanical watch from the first drawer and began to disassemble it.He didn't remember what Wu Ying said to him afterwards.

Sitting in the car, Ji Duo couldn't help laughing at the thought of the kiss just now, causing the driver to secretly look at her.She took out her mobile phone and wrote a note on this day: Today Wei Jin and I confessed our love and kissed for the first time.Although I forced the kiss, he didn't push me away.is a good start.

It can be exported even if the phone is changed, so she never loses the day.
