Miss, you are my future wife

Chapter 322 Shen Jie’s Confession

"Well, he said," Xiao Yao replied, "He said, why don't you break up with the daughter of Shen Hongsheng's family?"

The phone fell silent.

Three seconds later: "Then, what did you say?"

"What can I say in that situation? Those two bald heads were staring at each other eagerly, so I can only say 'OK'."

There was silence on the other end of the phone again.

"You don't really believe it, do you?" Three seconds later: "I was joking with you, of course I won't offend him."

"Oh." Shen Jie said softly.

"Oh, don't be unhappy," Xiao Yao said, "These adults are all the same."

"I didn't expect you to be quite popular with the elders of the Yu family," Shen Jie's tone sounded unhappy: "First Yu Luying's mother, and then her grandfather..."

"Uh." Xiao Yao said.

"It would be great if you could also please my father." Shen Jie said softly.

"Wife..." Xiao Yao wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how to speak.

"He just told you this? He didn't say anything else?" Shen Jie asked Xiao Yao.

"More than that." Xiao Yao then started from the beginning, starting from the moment he entered the door, and continued until he excused himself to go to the toilet. He tried his best to recount all the conversations according to his memory without missing any omissions.

"What did he think?" Shen Jie said, "Let you be a lobbyist? It seems that people still think highly of you."

"That's right," Xiao Yao said, "I was a little flattered at the time - to be honest, Grandpa Yu is different from what I imagined. He is quite nice."

"So you agreed?" Shen Jie asked Xiao Yao.

"I agreed." Xiao Yao replied.

"Then you must never tell that to silly girl." Shen Jie sighed softly.

"How to say it?" Xiao Yao was a little nervous: "I have already told her."

"What?" Shen Jie said.

Xiao Yao told Shen Jie how he met Yu Luying at the door of the toilet after coming out of the private room, what the two said, how Yu Luying got angry and left in an awkward situation, how he chased after her, and how the awkwardness ended in Interrupted by shadow time.

"You, you, you," Shen Jie sighed heavily after hearing this: "How are you going to survive in this world in the future?"

"What's wrong with me?" Xiao Yao said, "I don't even know why she is angry."

"That's the problem," Shen Jie said: "You still don't know why silly girl is angry - if you ask me, she didn't break up with you on the spot, that's really, really, really..."

"Ah? Ah?" Xiao Yao said.

"It seems you really don't understand," Shen Jie's tone sounded a little strange: "This thing is also my fault. When the Yu family sent someone to pick you up, I should have stopped them - I was also panicked at that time , I didn’t think too deeply about it.”

Xiao Yao: "..."

"Grandpa of the Yu family set a trap for you," Shen Jie explained: "Think about it, you met Yu Luying's grandfather without her knowledge, and all the core people present were the core figures of the Yu family, so they You can express your position on your behalf, and if it is publicized, any position you express, any suggestion you make, whether it is to collect money or confiscate money, for any reason, for the benefit of anyone, will be questioned by others in the future. , when the time comes, other than shutting up and getting out, you will have no other way to remain innocent in this world, do you understand?"

"What a mess," Xiao Yao said anxiously: "You think too bad of people, this is not a conspiracy theory."

"You just told Yu Luying directly like this -" Shen Jie continued: "Forget it, just say it. She will know it sooner or later if you don't tell her. If you tell her, she still looks candid."

"That's it," Xiao Yao said: "If you have the chance, you can help me talk to her and be a witness for me. To be honest, I was indeed deceived and had no idea about it."

"Oh, you, from my position, how can I talk to her-" Shen Jie paused and said, "Okay, don't worry about it, I'll take care of it."

"Is there any problem?" Xiao Yao became a little worried when she said that.

"What's the problem now?" Shen Jie said, "You should thank your Zhao Xiaomei, it was her attack that tied the fate of all of us together, whether it was the three of us, or Yu Luying and her grandfather. , you and her grandfather are both comrades who have fought together for life, and those little grudges can't shake the friendship that has passed through life."

Zhao Xiaomei......

"By the way, speaking of this, why did you go to the Notre Dame Mountain?" Xiao Yao asked Shen Jie: "Isn't there a few steps away from the hotel entrance to the Notre Dame Mountain?"

"I led her and them there," Shen Jie said, "Didn't it mean that the Holy Eucharist can protect the shadow? I remembered that last time at your grandma's house, the Iesu Sacred Heart statue that Father Yu just gave you glowed to disperse the shadow." thing, do you remember?"

"Remember." Xiao Yao said.

"I just want to lead them to the Notre Dame Mountain," Shen Jie said, "What if it works?"

"Did it work?" Xiao Yao asked.

"I don't know, I guess not," Shen Jie replied, "But I can't say for sure. Who knows if those shadows have been weakened? The fight between Silly Girl and I didn't feel as strong as it seemed at first."

"Hmm..." Xiao Yao said, "I can't tell."

"Gouzi, what should I do if I feel a little uncomfortable?" Shen Jie suddenly changed her tone to a coquettish one.

"Huh?" Xiao Yao said, "What's wrong?"

"I'm still feeling... the feeling of being burned, and it's that feeling that keeps me awake."

Shen Jie began to describe the burning feeling to Xiao Yao.

The flames licked at her skin, instantly devouring the girl's stockings and skin.

The tingling sensation spread along her legs, as if countless needlepoints were piercing deeply into every inch of her skin.

For Shen Jie, what kind of feeling was that?
She is not a person who is afraid of pain. In her memory, she has also experienced the biting chill in the snow-capped mountains, the mud covered the grass, and the sense of despair of suffocating underwater many times.

However, the pain of this flame... was almost unbearable for her, making her want to scream, but all she could hear was a mute moan.

Her feet were wrapped in blazing flames, and the temperature was so high that she felt like she was about to turn to ashes in the fire.The girl could feel the smell of burning skin, accompanied by thick smoke rising, as if the whole world was enveloped by this burning.

Time became extremely slow, no, the time at that time was already frozen, and every second was a long life, which plunged her into eternal pain.

"Gouzi, I will never wear stockings again in my life, okay?" Shen Jie finally said.

"Okay, okay, if you don't want to wear it, don't wear it. Where are you? Is it 605? Isn't Lucia here?" Xiao Yao said.

Shen Jie hesitated for a while, but finally did not reject him.

Xiao Yao put on his clothes and went down to 605. As soon as he entered the door, he hugged Shen Jie distressedly into his arms, and then got into bed with her, stroking the girl's hair, murmuring and comforting her.

"You, you, you always talk about me," Xiao Yao said, "I'm not a rash person yet - now you know it hurts, right? You're not allowed to be so rash again in the future, do you hear me?"

"Well," the mother cat is as well-behaved as a milk cat: "If it weren't for hairtail, you might never see me. Maybe I have become a vegetative state, or a burnt plant."

"Fuck, if I see him tomorrow, I'll give him a thumbs up." Xiao Yao said.

"And Brother Bo..." Shen Jie reminded Xiao Yao.

"I know, I know." Xiao Yao said.Xiao Yao patted her gently as if coaxing a little girl, and whispered with her.Amidst the buzzing sound of the air conditioner, he didn't know whether he coaxed Shen Jie to sleep, but he fell asleep anyway.

She didn't stare in confusion for long before Shen Jie woke her up again: "It's time for you to go. It's time for the evening activities to end. Lucia will be back soon."

Xiao Yao yawned and went upstairs, and it didn't take long for Gao Sijun to come back.

"I heard that your kid said a lot of good things about me?" Xiao Yao looked at Gao Sijun and said, "Well done."

Gao Sijun was a little hesitant, blinking his eyes, not knowing whether Xiao Yao was speaking truthfully or ironically: "That must be done, which one of us is with whom—have you washed it yet?"

When sleeping at night, nightmares and strange dreams visit me alternately.

He first dreamed that Shen Jie was on fire, rolling in front of him, crying and wailing.Xiao Yao opened the fire hose to put out the fire, but the fire burned even more fiercely. It turned out that he was holding a gas station oil gun... After the girl was burned to coke, all that was left was a headless body with her belly upwards. , his limbs were on the ground backwards, crawling around him like a spider, which looked quite terrifying.

"Why?" Xiao Yao asked her: "I thought we were friends."

The headless "spider" just crawled around without speaking.

"Why did you do this?" Xiao Yao continued to ask angrily: "You almost killed both of them, almost killed me, and you also killed Teacher Song - why did you do this? You were close to me from the beginning , is pursuing me a task of the organization? Have you never liked me? "

Xiao Yao no longer remembers how Zhao Xiaomei answered - in fact, the scenes and memories behind the dream are very vague.

He only remembered that he and Zhao Xiaomei walked through many places holding hands and talked a lot. The feeling in the dream was very warm and a little sweet.

Zhao Xiaomei told him about her difficulties, which sounded reasonable in the dream, but when she woke up, the logic couldn't stand up to scrutiny at all.

The two of them went to the small wonton shop where they first met. While eating wontons, Xiao Yao read her his own compositions and poems.When he walked out of the wonton shop, there was a small river in Zhouzhuang outside. Zhao Xiaomei volunteered to go down to the river to catch fish for him.

The setting sun shone slantingly on the river, and also on the faces of boys and girls.Under a golden filter, Zhao Xiaomei stood in the river, with her waist submerged under the water, holding an exaggeratedly large fish in her hand, facing him with a smile like a flower.

Xiao Yao was woken up early by Shen Jie's call. At this time, Senior High School was still sleeping soundly, and Xiao Yao himself was still immersed in the melancholy caused by his sweet dreams.

"What are you doing so early?" Xiao Yao lowered his voice and said in confusion.

"Didn't you say yesterday that you asked me to take you diving?" Shen Jie said.

"Oh, it seems that there is such a thing." Xiao Yao said: "But there is no need to be so early?"

"Stop talking nonsense and come down quickly." After Shen Jie finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

Shen Jie also called Yu Luying about diving, but the latter said she was not interested, so they went alone.After paying the fee, we followed the diving instructor onto a small boat, and the three of us headed towards the shallow waters offshore.

"If I had known I had to get up earlier, I might as well have watched the sunrise over the sea." Xiao Yao looked at the white sky in the east and said to himself.

"It doesn't matter," the coach comforted him: "It's cloudy today, and you can't see the sunrise even if you get up early."

"You are really good at talking," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I felt better immediately after saying that."

"You're still early, I almost can't wake you up at this point." Shen Jie complained.

"Hey, let's sneak out to play at this time. Can't we go back in time to attend the morning mass?" Xiao Yao suddenly thought of something.

"It's okay, Lucia came back and told me that today's mass will be moved to before the closing ceremony."

"That's good." Xiao Yao said, lowering his voice and said to Shen Jie: "You said you can't see the shore from all sides. If this person throws us down, there is no camera or anything, right? Has the disappearance case been solved? The case cannot be solved."

"Yes," Shen Jie said with a smile, "So, when you are at sea, you must not offend anyone, especially the captain."

At this time, the coach talked to them: "Hey, I heard you just said mass, are you also Catholics?"

"Fellow seeker, friend of seeker," Xiao Yao said, "Are you too?"

"We are all fishermen in this area," the coach told them, "I do this as a part-timer."

"I've heard people say before that in China, many fishermen on the seaside are religious. Why?" Shen Jie asked curiously.

"Because Saint Peter (Note: the first pope, also translated as Saint Peter) is also a fisherman," the coach told them: "Those of us who go fishing all year round are afraid of wind and waves, so we have to ask him to protect us."

While talking, I have arrived at the snorkeling location.

Diving is divided into snorkeling, deep diving and free diving. Xiao Yao does not have a diving certificate, so he can only experience snorkeling. Shen Jie has a certificate but does not bring it with her. She also accompanied Xiao Yao, so the two snorkeled together.

There is no imaginary diving helmet, nor imaginary flippers. The only equipment is goggles + oxygen mask. It feels like running naked underwater.

After Xiao Yao was pushed into the water by the coach, he was always worried that seawater would suddenly pour into his mask and choke his lungs. Therefore, he kept pressing the mask with one hand. His swimming posture was unbalanced and he was always spinning. He only relied on the coach to hold him in this position. depth.

But in general, this first novelty experience is still very cool.

According to what Shen Jie said, the seabed in this area is very shallow, but I don’t know if it’s because it’s cloudy today, or because he disagrees with Shen Jie about the concept of “very shallow”—looking down from here , it feels like it’s not far from your feet, and it’s already a bit dark and scary.

No wonder hairtails and the others are safe and sound in the sea. The depths of the sea do not welcome light, so naturally there will be no shadow.

But he changed his mind and thought again, the shadow is formed by the blocked light, and the deep sea where all the light is blocked by sea water, shouldn’t it be the shadow of the sea which accounts for 71% of the earth’s surface?

The sea is already moody enough and can do whatever it wants. What would it look like if it also had a palace?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yao suddenly felt a chill, and his posture that had been adjusted became chaotic again.

Shen Jie was an experienced driver, so she naturally didn't need the coach to hold her, so she got to Xiao Yao's other side and held his hand.

Xiao Yao turned his head to look at her with some surprise, and saw a little girl wearing goggles and an oxygen mask, carrying an oxygen bottle on her back, and wearing a one-piece black tight-fitting diving suit on her bare feet. Her figure was so graceful, like a Flexible mermaid.

Shen Jie let go of his hand and pointed to her chest.

Then he compared a red heart with both hands.

He pointed at Xiao Yao again.

Ouch, is the coach uncle still around?Xiao Yao thought.

Is this the first time Mommy Meow has confessed to herself?
Xiao Yao felt so happy that all the gloom was swept away. He rushed forward to hug her, but he bumped into her and then slipped away.

Through the mask, Xiao Yao couldn't see Shen Jie's expression clearly. She only knew that she took his hand again, and with the other hand, he made a bunch of gestures to the uncle diver. Xiao Yao only understood a thumbs down gesture.

The diver uncle let go of Xiao Yao's arm with some hesitation, and Shen Jie continued to dive with him.

Until it touches the coral reef on the seabed at a depth of eleven or two meters.

It's so beautiful, Xiao Yao couldn't see clearly Shen Jie in the coral reef, but he still thought so in his heart.

Shen Jie hugged him gently and pointed upward with the index finger of her left hand.

Xiao Yao clung to Shen Jie tightly and looked up at the "sky".

He saw the calm sea, the kind of visual effect seen from below.

I also saw a glimmer of light on the water.

"Follow that light!" Xiao Yao thought.
