Chapter 168 She Cried

In Maoshi's government office, people came one after another, greeting each other, or talking politely about the weather, or chatting acquaintancely about interesting things in Beijing and China.God and time have brought everyone into a brand new day fairly, but it seems that Chu Xia is the only one left in the past night.

Chang Qing sat on the chair refreshed and looked at Xia Chu, nodded her chin, and asked incomprehensibly, "Allergy? What do you mean?"

"Have you ever seen some people eat river fresh seafood and get little red spots on their bodies?" Chu Xia glanced at him, but it was more like a glance at him.The red and swollen eyes couldn't be opened, looking at everyone with a look of contempt, which seemed a bit wretched.

Chang Qing nodded, and said with a smile, "But I've never seen it on the eyes, turning them into big red bumps."

"Everyone's allergic reaction is different!" Xia Chu stood up and rubbed his eyes vigorously, "Come on, follow me to the German class to inquire about the case."

"So early? Waiting for adults?"

"No." Xia Chuxin said that it was him who was hiding, and the lame words of allergies could only deceive Chang Qing, and it was because Chang Qing was his subordinate, so he didn't dare to ask more questions.Jiang Xiyuan wouldn't believe it, and when she got to the bottom of it, she really didn't know what to say.

Hurry up while it's still early!Chu Xia put on his hat, opened the door, and bumped his head on Jiang Xiyuan.Jiang Xiyuan stretched out his hand to support Xia Chu's shoulder, pushed it up, and asked without hesitation for half a second, "What's wrong with your eyes?"

Xia Chu sighed inwardly, lowered his head to avoid her gaze, and whispered, "I'm allergic."

"Allergies?" Jiang Xiyuan had never heard this word before, "What is that?"

Chang Qing approached obediently, and said: "My lord, have you ever seen some people eat river fresh seafood, do they get little red spots on their bodies? That's the thing."

Jiang Xiyuan looked at Chang Qing, and Chang Qing shrugged quietly at him.He looked at Xia Chu again, and thought, thanks to the nonsense reason she could think of, those eyes clearly cried.

The dinner he had with Xia Chu last night was fine when he sent her home, did anything happen after he got home?Crying eyes like this must not be simply sad.

The daily life in early Xia was very simple, and the people he knew were not complicated. Jiang Xiyuan analyzed it briefly with the method of elimination, and he roughly guessed what was going on. His mood suddenly became irritable and complicated.

"My lord, don't block the door. Hurry up and go. I'll take Chang Qing to investigate the case." Xia Chu shrank his shoulders and was about to go out, but Jiang Xiyuan snatched her back, clamping her neck with his arms, Chang Qing said: "Chang Qing, go and ask that Brother Man if he has an answer, if not, let him ask as soon as possible, and then bring Tang Baoxin to the government office. There is no reason for a suspect to sit at home and let the officials run errands every day."

Jiang Xiyuan held Xia Chu out as he spoke, "Go to my place, I have something to ask you." Xia Chu reached out and grabbed the door frame, but when he failed, he tried to break Jiang Xiyuan's arm, but he couldn't do anything.

"Be honest!" Jiang Xiyuan reprimanded in a low voice.

"My lord, let go! I'm going to investigate the case, my lord, please don't interfere with the official business!"

Jiang Xiyuan regained some strength in his arm, and suppressed Xia Chu's yelling, "I have something to do with you. I'm the boss, I told you to go, but you can't help it."

Chang Qing watched the two go away, and spread his hands helplessly, "Aren't I an official post? I have to run errands." After speaking, he sighed and left resignedly.

After entering the study, Jiang Xiyuan pressed Xia Chu on the chair, leaned over to look at her, "I'm crying a lot." Xia Chu hid back, don't start, and denied with a guilty conscience: "No."

Jiang Xiyuan turned around and twisted a cold towel for her, and handed it over, "Apply it."

Xia Chu glanced at his expression, took it over and covered his eyes.She couldn't see Jiang Xiyuan, but felt that the room was quiet, and it took a long time before she heard him sigh softly: "Your eyes are bloodshot, you didn't sleep last night?"

Xia Chu took off the cloth towel, smiled at him, pointed at himself in a gag, and said, "Your Excellency has good eyesight! How can you still see bloodshot eyes with this little squint?"

Jiang Xiyuan looked at her, but didn't smile.Xia Chu's expression froze, and he covered his eyes with a cloth resentfully, twitched the corner of his mouth and explained, "I just missed my mother all of a sudden, so suddenly..., you may not understand, my lord."

She gently rubbed her eye sockets, and kept pursing her lips, showing that she was a little depressed.Jiang Xiyuan looked at her, wanted to hold her in his arms and coax her gently, stretched out his hand, hesitated for a moment, then put it down, and said softly, "I understand. Even if I didn't understand before, I can understand now."

When Xia Chu heard this, he quickly took off the cloth towel, looked at Jiang Xiyuan in a little panic, "My lord, you..."

Jiang Xiyuan was startled at first, but then he understood, and couldn't help poking her on the forehead, ""My mother is fine! "What did she think he understood? Understand the pain of losing a mother? Did she really think she believed her excuse?

"Sorry." Xia Chu rubbed his nose embarrassedly, "Sir, tell me, what do you want from me?"

"Sleepy?" Jiang Xiyuan asked her.

"Not sleepy!" Xia Chu tried hard to open his eyes, even raising his eyebrows.

"Sleep on the soft couch over there for a while if you're sleepy. I'll read the official documents and don't disturb you." After Jiang Xiyuan finished speaking, he walked to the edge of the table and sat down.

"Hey!" Xia Chu stood up and threw the cloth back on the shelf, "It's okay for Mr. He Zhe to find me! I'm going to investigate my case if it's okay."

"Don't leave." Jiang Xiyuan said without raising his head.Xia Chu gave him a sideways glance, and walked towards the door without stopping. As soon as he put his hand on the doorknob, he heard Jiang Xiyuan say quietly: "You dare to go and try. If you leave now, you won't come to the government office tomorrow. "

"Why?!"

"Because I'm your boss." Listening to Xia Chu taking a deep breath, he continued, "It's just using your status to suppress you, what can you do?"

"It's coming again! It's just scaring people, I don't believe you will fire me."

"Push the door." Jiang Xiyuan put down the official document in his hand, leaned on the back of the chair and looked at her with a half-smile, "I'll let you believe me once."

Xia Chu swallowed his saliva, narrowed his eyes and looked at Jiang Xiyuan, and gently pushed the door open with his hand.Jiang Xiyuan sighed helplessly, rubbed his forehead, and said in a slow voice: "It's not harming you, why are you so stubborn?"

Jiang Xiyuan softened his attitude, and Xia Chu couldn't stand it anymore, "It's not stubborn. If I'm not sleepy, you insist on letting me sleep. How can this be? There's no such thing as a cow not drinking water."

"The cow is too stubborn. If you don't press its head, you will die of thirst. I still plow the land by pointing at it."

"The cow wants to plow the land now!"

"But I don't want to plow the land right now. Go, rest, I'll call you when Chang Qing comes back." Jiang Xiyuan picked up the document again, and said calmly: "If you're not sleepy, I'll talk to you."

"What are you talking about?"

"Talk about your mother. I'm afraid it's uncomfortable to cry alone, so just talk about it."

Xia Chu felt guilty and stopped talking. She felt that Jiang Xiyuan seemed to have something to say, but she didn't dare to ask in detail. She couldn't help secretly regretting why she didn't just ask for leave today.But where can she go if she doesn't come to the government office?I can't walk around the streets with such two eyes, and I don't want to stay at home.Mr. Huang's cup of tea was still on the stone table last night, she felt uncomfortable seeing it.

"My lord, I really..."

"Got it, lie down and go." Jiang Xiyuan waved at her.Xia Chu sighed, walked to the edge of the soft couch, threw himself on it, sat up again, "I'm lying down."

Jiang Xiyuan frowned, threw the official document in his hand on the table, and said loudly: "Lie down for me! Don't get up for half an hour. Do you think I can't beat you or cure you! Soft and hard Don’t eat it?!”

Xia Chu quickly threw himself down again, turned his back to him, and said nothing more.

Jiang Xiyuan didn't speak any more.The only sound in the room was the rustling of papers being turned and closed, one page after another.Amidst such subtle and repetitive sounds, Xia Chu gradually relaxed.

She didn't know why today, but she was a little afraid of Jiang Xiyuan.Maybe it was because she was afraid that he would break through her poor excuses, that he would get a glimpse of more of her secrets, or maybe, she wasn't afraid, but subconsciously, she didn't want to leave that much.

When she comes to work, she wants to investigate the case, and wants to fill her time with many, many things, and then spend a lot of time to fill up the sadness in her heart.Besides, she didn't know what else to do, she couldn't even find a place where she could make herself weak and let herself speak.

When other girls are lovelorn and sad, they can find girlfriends and throw themselves into their mother's arms, but she doesn't have that blessing.Last night when I cried so dryly that I didn't even have a cup of hot water, I felt desolate.

Having someone by her side at this time at least made her feel less lonely.Even though I can't share my worries, I feel much more secure.

She was really tired. She was originally told to lie down by Jiang Xiyuan, reluctantly, but soon fell asleep to the soft sound of the pages of the book.

Jiang Xiyuan read the official documents for a while, and heard that Xia Chu's breathing gradually became even, so he gently put down the things in his hand, took one of his long gowns from the cabinet, covered Xia Chu's body, and took off the hat for her .

The sky was fine, and the cicadas hadn’t started singing yet. The sunlight leaked in through the half-open window. The jasmine on the flower stand by the window was just beginning to bloom. The tender white flowers exuded a faint fragrance. quiet.

Jiang Xiyuan stood by the couch and looked at Xia Chu with gentle and pity.He wanted to stroke her soft short hair, but he was afraid that he would wake her up. When she woke up, she would put on the 'armor' again, and bury her sadness in her heart with vigor.

This is a girl with ordinary looks, she is pretty; this is a girl who knows nothing about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she only loves to solve cases; this is a homeless girl, and she is very stingy.

But this is a girl he likes, no matter how you look at it, he thinks it is cute.Her stubbornness made him a headache, but she also made his heart ache because of her stubbornness.He wanted to pick whatever he wanted regardless, wanted her to dress up for him and make her look like a woman, but he also wanted to stay by her side, shelter her from the wind and rain, make her carefree, let her use her own Head held high, brilliant bloom.

He didn't know what he should do, but he knew that no matter what he did for her, he would be happy and happy for it.

He wanted to hold out his heart and give it to her, but when she cried, it wasn't for herself.
