female catcher

Chapter 185
The temperature of his palm could be heard from Xia Chu's fingers, his face flushed suddenly, he pulled his hand out hastily, and took two steps back.She looked sideways at the corner beside her, feeling a little nervous, touched her nose and said in a firm tone: "My lord, why are you here looking for me?"

The words Jiang Xiyuan wanted to say were already on his lips, but they were suddenly blocked by her cold tone, and he vented his courage all at once, feeling extremely annoyed.

"Don't be angry with me." He took a step forward, and Xia Chu immediately took a step back, never looking at him, and said in a mosquito voice, "I'm not angry, sir, please leave quickly." After finishing speaking, she silently Frowning frowningly, he thought what kind of nonsense he was talking about.

She knew that Jiang Xiyuan was not malicious in the joke just now.In the final analysis, this matter was due to his grudge with Wang Huai and he splashed dirty water, Jiang Xiyuan's innocence was affected, that's all. He helped him calm down the situation against the thunder and was punished. As soon as he came out, he came to see him.No matter what he thinks about him, this kindness and help must always be accepted and remembered.Shocking people as soon as you open your mouth, what is this?White-eyed wolf? This is not it.

Xia Chu scratched his head, tried to turn around and said, "My lord, I have no other intentions."

"Don't you want to see me?" Jiang Xiyuan regretted asking this question, afraid that she would nod her head and say 'yes', her heart was in her throat for a moment, and she couldn't help swallowing.

When Xia Chu heard him ask this question, he thought that what he said just now was really too much, so he hurriedly said: "No, I didn't mean that. I just..., just..."

Looking at Xia Chu's hesitant expression, Jiang Xiyuan felt puzzled.Recalling that she seemed to be the same when she was in the house just now, after waking up and seeing herself, there was always a kind of hesitation and avoidance in her expression.Before, I thought she just woke up and didn't wake up, but now that I think about it again, I don't think that's the case.

After thinking about it for a while, he remembered the words she said before leaving the government office that day, 'Don't come looking for me, I don't want others to misunderstand', and he felt a little clear in his heart.Presumably, she didn't care about those rumors, and was afraid of other people's comments and opinions, so she had such an attitude towards herself.

Those rumors of Wang Huaisan were really hateful. On the one hand, they questioned Xia Chu's ability and professional ethics, and on the other hand, they even slandered her personality.It seems that this guy has made progress after leaving the government office, and he will make some dirty tricks.

It was too easy to get rid of Wang Huai, but the hard part was those sloppy words, and the hard part was getting Xia Chu to regain his confidence and enthusiasm for investigating the case.Thinking about it, Jiang Xiyuan frowned unconsciously, temporarily suppressed all the emotions in his heart, and made up his mind: "It's getting late, aren't you hungry? Come, go out to eat with me."

Xia Chu was stunned for a moment, with shrinking eyes, he immediately shook his head and said, "I won't go."

really.Jiang Xiyuan sighed secretly, "Take it as my apology. Save face."

"No. I won't go, sir, you can eat by yourself."

"Then what do you eat?"

"Brother Liu hasn't finished eating the dishes, I'll just reheat them, otherwise it will be a waste." Xia Chu said.

"What about when you finish eating? I won't let Liu Qi deliver it to you again? Are you going to starve to death at home?"

Xia Chu was silent for a while and said: "When you are sure that there is nothing wrong with you, my lord, I will resign from the government office. Jingguo is so big, I don't have to starve to death in Xijing."

Jiang Xiyuan frowned, thinking that this girl was stubborn, but there was a place where she was stubborn.Resign?Leaving Beijing?What kind of solution is this? It's ridiculous!He turned his voice cold: "This is a good idea. I wanted to tell you about Yue Xiaohong's case, but now it seems that you don't care."

Xia Chu glanced at him, then turned his head to stare at that corner again, lowered his head halfway and said gloomily, "Does it have anything to do with me? If I go to investigate the case again, I will just listen to other people's ridicule and ridicule for nothing. My lord, you are quite good at investigating cases, I believe you..."

"I'm not free." Jiang Xiyuan interrupted her, "Tomorrow I'm going to the palace to plead guilty, the day after tomorrow I'll accept the levy, and then there's the big wedding. Everything is more important to me than the case. If you are determined to ignore it, then this case will be like this."

Xia Chu frowned when he heard it, turned to stare at him and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Sentence Tang Baoxin to death, and give the common people an explanation. You just need to hide from you. After a few months, you will be forgotten by others and then go out, or you can follow you if you want to leave Beijing. I'm leaving." Jiang Xiyuan said Turn around and leave.

Xia Chu became anxious, and quickly chased after him to stop him, saying, "Master, you know that Yue Xiaohong was not killed by Tang Baoxin, so what do you mean by that? Are you killing innocent people indiscriminately just to appease the public opinion?!"

Jiang Xiyuan stopped, and lightly said: "Shouldn't public opinion care about it? Everyone is happy with Tang Baoxin, what's wrong? He's just an actor."

"Public opinion is public opinion, and the truth is the truth! If public opinion can be used as the basis for judging the case, why do you need to be arrested quickly? What do you need your lord to do! Go to the teahouse and do a questionnaire to solve everything!" Xia Chu said angrily.She couldn't believe that Jiang Xiyuan would say such a thing.

"Public opinion is public opinion, and the truth is the truth." Jiang Xiyuan repeated her words, turned to look at her with a stern face, "Then let me ask you, are you a young lady raised by me, Jiang Xiyuan, in early Xia? Is there any trouble? You did this headhunter because you sold your body for glory? Can all the criminals in the cases you investigate stand the test? Is what those people said the truth?"

Xia Chu's aura was instantly extinguished, and he lowered his head and said in a low voice, "This is different."

"You don't want public opinion to kill Tang Baoxin, but you don't care that public opinion kills yourself! Do you?" Jiang Xiyuan snapped, reaching out and pulling her wrist, "Look up at the beginning of Xia! You have a clear conscience, you want to Get the justice yourself!" After speaking, he ignored her hesitation and ambiguity, and dragged her out the door.

During this journey, Xia Chu was dragged by Jiang Xiyuan, and he couldn't withdraw his hand no matter what.She was so embarrassed that he lowered her head and was dragged behind him in small steps, grabbing her hat for a while, scratching her nose for a while, for fear that others would recognize her.

When Jiang Xiyuan stopped and let go, she looked up and saw that she had been taken to the Qingfeng steamed stuffed bun shop at the entrance of the government office.The big stove at the door of the shop was built with tall drawers, steaming hot.It was meal time, and the shed at the door was full of people.

Xia Chu took a step back, turned around and wanted to leave, Jiang Xiyuan said without looking back, "Xia Chu, if you want to go, go. Go, and don't let me see you again in the future."

Xia Chu opened his mouth a little aggrieved, but Jiang Xiyuan didn't intend to listen to her at all, so he walked into the shed and left her alone on the street.

She was used to Jiang Xiyuan's smile and the gentle spring breeze, but she didn't realize that this man's face was so frightening, and his actions were so terrific.He just forced himself to go out for dinner, and he insisted on looking for the gate of the government office, and it was the place with the most people.Other places in Xijing may not recognize who she is at the beginning of Xia, but most of these people know it. It is estimated that there are not a few people who saw the joke at the scene that day.

Looking at the diners in the canopy at the beginning of Xia, he felt his scalp tightening and his hands were sweating.She knew that she shouldn't leave, and that Jiang Xiyuan's reprimand before going out was not unreasonable, but knowing it was one thing, but facing it was another.

Just when Xia Chu was hesitating, Jiang Xiyuan had already found an empty table and sat down, and greeted her knowingly: "Xia Chu! There is an empty seat here, come and sit!"

In an instant, the shed became eerily quiet.Xia Chu hurriedly lowered his head, but he could still feel the gazes of those diners coming over.She really wanted to find a place to drill right away, and Tudun went home.

She took another step back and hid herself in the darkness before she dared to raise her eyes slightly and looked at Jiang Xiyuan over the crowd.

Jiang Xiyuan rested on the table with one hand, pressed his chin lightly with his fist, and was also looking at her.She pursed her lips tightly, shook her head at him, her eyes were full of begging, but Jiang Xiyuan smiled brightly and waved lightly.

The wind lamp under the shed was dim, and the expressions of the people around were all different, their eyes full of content.Jiang Xiyuan sat in it, with a breezy and magnanimous look, as if there was nothing in the world, laughing at her as mediocre.

Jiang Xiyuan's smile reassured her a little, her gaze fell into her eyes like silent encouragement, and she seemed to hear him say again: "Xia Chu, raise your head up for me! You have a clear conscience, and you can get the justice you want by yourself." !"

She repeated these words several times in her heart, and took a few deep breaths.His eyes were fixed on Jiang Xiyuan, and he finally moved his feet and walked in without looking sideways.

The distance of a few steps was extremely long, and those eyes were chasing after her body, Xia Chu clenched his fists and kept telling himself, look up!Stand up!She has a clear conscience, she is worthy of her own conscience, she cannot and should not succumb to the eyes and misunderstandings of others, shrinking and fear will never help herself.

Die and die!What's more, she won't die yet, I'm afraid of a fart!
Finally got to the table, and after sitting down, Jiang Xiyuan smiled at her, and looked gentle as usual again.He raised his voice and greeted: "Miss Boss, one tray of sauced meat, one tray of three fresh dishes, and another tray of five-spice peanuts."

The proprietress responded with a sound, turned around and left, raised eyebrows and winked quietly when passing by a few tables next to her, nodded and smiled softly: "It's him, that's right."

A few clear laughter came over, which was particularly piercing, and someone said in a low voice: "You said they didn't avoid suspicion? How dare they go out after they are like this? Xia Chu has a thick skin."

"If you're like this, why avoid it? Besides, it's enough to have a good-looking face. It doesn't matter whether it's thick or not." Someone interjected, and there was another burst of laughter after speaking.The sound of discussion was buzzing like thousands of flies.

Jiang Xiyuan had a powerful background after all, so these vicious words were mostly aimed at Chu Xia.Xia Chu heard it clearly, although he was mentally prepared, even though he told himself not to care, but it was still heart-piercing to hear it.

"Look at me." Jiang Xiyuan said in a low voice, and seeing Xia Chu timidly raised his eyes, he nodded and smiled, "You will know after this meal, except that your stomach is fuller, you are still you, there will be no difference. Do you believe it?"

Xia Chu gently pulled the corners of his lips, and fixed his eyes on Jiang Xiyuan, as if he was the only light that could follow in the dark, "Believe." She said.

"Very good." Jiang Xiyuan pulled out a pair of chopsticks and handed them to her, "Do you know why I brought you here to eat buns?"

Xia Chu hesitated for a moment and nodded, "My lord wants to tell me that the worst is nothing more than this, and there is nothing to be afraid of."

Jiang Xiyuan laughed and said, "We still have places to go later, I just think it's faster to eat buns."

Xia Chu couldn't help being dumbfounded after hearing this answer, and after a while, he finally laughed.

Yes, eating buns is faster.She still has things to do, how can she find time to worry about what others say or think, only a fool will stop to explain to those irrelevant people, and use her own shrinking to satisfy others' curiosity and peeping.

Those commentators talked for a while, and seeing that there was no response from Xia Chu's side, they became bored, and the topics gradually became diverse.After finishing the meal peacefully, Xia Chu peeled the last peanut and put it in his mouth, while chewing carefully, he looked at Jiang Xiyuan quietly.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Xiyuan asked her.

She pursed her lips and shook her head with a smile, and after a moment of silence, she said softly, "Thank you."
