Chapter 66
Shen Shu raised her head when she heard the approaching voice.
Holding the thicker end of the whip with milky white fingers, he said, "Are you finished talking?"
Xu Jinman nodded, sat next to Shen Shu, took the mineral water from the table beside her, opened it and took a sip, then lowered her eyes to look at the things in Shen Shu's hand.
"What's so good about this?"
Shen Shu put down the whip, and said softly, "The pattern is very pretty, don't you think?"
Xu Jinman didn't look at it carefully. Shen Shu said that she really looked at it. The place where she held it was also leather, with very finely woven patterns, like small carved flowers.
She agreed: "That's good, if you like to take one home?"
Shen Shu: "...I take it home? What are you doing?"
There was a pause between the two questions, and in the second half of the sentence, Shen Shu looked sideways at Xu Jinman.
Xu Jinman just said it casually, without thinking deeply, but Shen Shu's eyes gave her a pause: "...Favorite?"
After finishing speaking, Xu Jinman heard footsteps at the door.
The door was not closed, the manager just stood at the door, and said with a smile: "Miss Xu, Miss Shen, the afternoon tea is ready, do you think it will be served inside or outside?"
Xu Jinman has been there just now and feels more comfortable than here.
Shen Shu naturally had no objection.
The two sat under the large sun umbrella, and there were several exquisite dessert cakes on the table. There was a mousse cake decorated with strawberries, and Xu Jinman handed it to Shen Shu.
The sun at three o'clock is not too hot, the temperature is just right with the breeze, and the fragrance of green grass blows from time to time. It really feels like being in the grassland.
Xu Jinman leaned on the chair, crossed his legs, and watched the news of the work group for a while.
Looking up, she saw that Shen Shu was digging a cake with a small fork and delivering it to her mouth. Shen Shu wore very light makeup when she went out. She didn't wear lipstick today, only light-colored lipstick, but her lips were extraordinarily ruddy today.
Is it because of the kiss just now?
This thought made Xu Jinman's breathing tight, she suddenly frowned, and reached for her neck.
The familiar tingling came suddenly.
The next two times when she came into contact with Shen Shu, she didn't have this kind of reaction, and she even thought that the stress symptoms had been alleviated or would not reappear.
"do you want to eat?"
Xu Jinman returned to his senses, seeing Shen Shu raise her eyes and ask her.
She shook her head: "Eat it."
Shen Shu poked the strawberry up and put it near her mouth: "Open your mouth."
Xu Jinman was silent, stared at the strawberry and smiled, lowered her head and clenched her mouth.
Shen Shu could feel that when Xu Jinman opened his mouth to bite, his teeth scraped lightly on the golden fork.
"Well, it's so sweet."
Shen Shu moved away from Xu Jinman's lips, tapped the one on the table with her chin, and said, "Then you eat."
Xu Jinman took a portion of it himself, mango cheesecake, and took a small bite. It was just like that, not as delicious as strawberries.
Or maybe it's because the attention is on the gland again at this moment, and I don't have the thought to taste it.
Two days ago, Professor Qin reminded her that she should go for a check-up. She didn't think it was necessary at the time, but now it seems that she still needs to check the situation.
She turned on her phone and sent a message to Professor Qin.
After resting outside with Shen Shu for a while, Xu Jinman asked Shen Shu if she wanted to ride again, and Shen Shu nodded.
This time, she was holding her hand underneath, not rushing.
"I can't let you alone for the first time." Xu Jinman said: "This place is not far away, as long as you are free, we can come."
Shen Shu: "I'm not in a hurry."
She lowered her head. Xu Jinman was wearing a black helmet, so she couldn't see her face clearly. The wind blew her long light brown hair onto her face, so Xu Jinman turned her side slightly and stretched out her hand to brush her hair away.
Xu Jinman smiled and said, "Well, there's no rush."
far away.
Chen Bo was sitting on the second floor of another rest area, with two beautiful Omega beside him, Chen Bo hugged one of them, glanced at Han Wenfang who was standing by the glass fence, threw the cards away, and said, "What are you looking at? Are you still playing?"
Han Wenfang didn't turn her head back: "Two people play Texas Hold'em well?"
Chen Bo let go of him, and said, "It's fucking boring. Ever since Yin Xue and Xiao Song left... No, since Sister Man became a good person, life has become more and more boring."
Hearing the long-lost name Yin Xue.
Han Wenfang responded: "If you don't tell me, I almost forgot about this person. Fortunately, I left early, otherwise I might have been dragged into the water by this woman just like Song Ronghui."
Chen Bo smiled: "Come on, you are as virtuous as that Miss Han of your family. She said that if she dragged you, you would go into the water? Don't I know about your Han family? You are most afraid of trouble. "
He remembered that when Yin Xue took the initiative to hook up with Han Wenfang, Han Wenfang also took the bait, but when she saw that Yin Xue and Xu Jinman were still involved, she turned around and withdrew for fear of causing trouble.
That Han Wenling was a little calmer than Han Wenfang, she recruited not all women, and never mixed with them.
"Speaking of which, is it you or your sister in your family? Is it close to a good thing with the daughter of the He family? Why did I hear from my dad that your two families are showing signs of success?"
Han Wenfang frowned and sneered, "I'm not selling myself."
"Is there really such a thing?" Chen Bo became interested, walked to Han Wenfang's side, and put his shoulders on his shoulders: "Tell me quickly?"
Han Wenfang: "There's nothing to say. Her mother just wants to find a good marriage partner for her. This mother and daughter are very ambitious. But it's a pity..."
Han Wenfang's eyes fell on the tall and one low figures in the distance: "Who told her not to please my father? Do you think you can get the Han family by consolidating your position?"
When Han Wenfang said these words, Chen Bo waved away the two Omegas behind him.
After listening to the words, Chen Bo was about to say something, followed his gaze, and suddenly saw Xu Jinman holding a white horse, his eyes opened wide: "Fuck, is that my sister Man? I read it right, right? She's leading the horse?"
Han Wenfang took out a cigarette and handed one to Chen Bo, and also laughed incredulously: "Are you saying she is real?"
Chen Bo: "My sister Man is awesome."
Han Wenfang glanced at him and thought he was sick.
Xu Jinman doesn't feel ashamed of such things as leading a horse?
"You go to rest and let someone else come."
Xu Jinman raised his head when he heard the words: "I'm fine, I don't have much time to exercise recently, I just happened to take a walk."
Shen Shu didn't say anything, but involuntarily looked behind Xu Jinman's waist.
With just one glance, she moved down in a strange way... Xu Jinman's figure is very good, except for Yue Xiong, the rear is even more upturned, and the tight black pants fit perfectly.
Her gaze was not covered, Xu Jinman sensed it, caught Shen Shu's gaze in mid-air, pulled her lower lip, her tone was a little scattered in the soft breeze: "Where are you looking?"
Shen Shu: "...where I can't look."
Her voice was very soft, but Xu Jinman could still hear it.
Xu Jinman took some time off and got a little interested: "Then where are you looking?"
Shen Shu replied lightly: "Wherever you want to look, you can look there."
The two people talked like a cross talk, and it seemed that neither would let the other go, but at the end, Xu Jinman took a step back first.
"Ok."
She smiled slightly, feeling that such Shen Shu was inexplicably cute, and said, "I can't blindfold you."
After saying this, Xu Jinman couldn't help thinking of such a picture in his mind.
It took only a second, and it was immediately retracted.
A smile appeared in Shen Shu's eyes.
Xu Jinman's concession sometimes makes her feel that she can be more willful and casual.No matter what you say or do, as long as you are in front of Xu Jinman, it seems to be fine.
Twenty minutes later, Shen Shu still asked Xu Jinman to rest, and found a beta equestrian coach to help her.Xu Jinman didn't refuse, and stood under the sun umbrella in the rest area to watch.
Not long after, Chen Bo probably saw that she was alone, so he came over again.
Asked about the birthday party in the second half of the month, Xu Jinman nodded and said, "Go."
For Chen Bo's father's birthday, everyone in the North City business circle will go, and Xu Tao and Lu Yun will also go there if there is no accident.
Chen Bo lit up a cigarette, "You will know when you see my dad. Now he compares me with you every day."
After talking for a while, Chen Bo suddenly asked: "By the way, Sister Man, you should ignore Han Hui, right?"
Xu Jinman: "What?"
Chen Bo: "At that time, the members of the Han family will also go, and Han Hui will also be there. I have to tell you first."
Xu Jinman looked at him speechlessly.
The incident in the hotel room last time was finally found out to have nothing to do with Han Hui, and she was still catching people for what she did, and she was not an unreasonable person.
"That's right, Sister Man is the most reasonable." Chen Bo flattered him, and he had to leave first after answering the phone call. Before leaving, he asked:
"Sister Man, is the person I introduced to you easy to use?"
Shen Shu came slowly from not far away on a white horse, Xu Jinman withdrew his gaze, his eyelids were pressed, and he just looked at the person without speaking.
Chen Bo immediately rolled his eyes: "I didn't ask anything, and I don't know anything."
Just slip away.
Shen Shu's horse was led close to her, and no one helped her. She stepped on the pedals and went down. Xu Jinman stepped forward, and just as she was falling, she put her hand on her waist.
Feeling the heat of her body, Xu Jinman asked, "Sweating?"
Shen Shu took off the gloves, and the sense of solidity after landing made her breathe a sigh of relief: "It's okay, what time is it?"
When Xu Jinman took her just now, she didn't feel that she couldn't relax with another person, and her whole body was a little tense.
"Five o'clock." Xu Jinman: "Go back after eating? I think the dishes here are pretty good."
Shen Shu said, "Okay."
I ordered two western dishes, which looked really good, but Shen Shu always felt that it was not as good as Xu Jinman's cooking.
"Let's go back and eat next time." Shen Shu took a sip of lemonade.
Xu Jinman looked at the leftovers on her plate and said, "Not tasty?"
Shen Shu: "It's not as delicious as your cooking."
Xu Jinman felt a sense of satisfaction, and said with a smile, "Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you when I get back."
Shen Shu raised her face from Xu Jinman's dinner plate with a thoughtful expression.
Xu Jinman cut a small piece of beef into his mouth, swallowed it slowly, and said, "Miss Shen, don't look at me and think."
People who watched thought they wanted to eat her?
Shen Shu blinked slowly, then lowered her head to pick up the knife and fork again, and said in a calm voice, "Can't you?"
Xu Jinman was startled, thinking for a moment that Shen Shu might not have understood her subtext.
"Can't you?" Shen Shu actually asked again.
Xu Jinman looked at the person opposite, making sure that Shen Shu didn't understand what she meant, and nodded with a smile: "OK."
When Shen Shu heard the answer, she cut a piece of steak and put it in her mouth.
In the end, she still didn't finish her portion, Xu Jinman saw that she didn't want to waste it, so she ate the remaining half for her.
When the two came out of the restaurant, the setting sun had already set, leaving behind the bleak and dim afterglow of the setting sun.
It's close to seven o'clock, ready to go back to Star City.
The manager delivered it to the door and gave Xu Jinman a long black box, which was beautifully packaged.
Before leaving, Xu Jinman remembered something, went back to find the manager, and asked Shen Shu to wait in the car first.
Shen Shu walked to the ground parking lot. At this time, there was no one there. There were only four or five luxury cars left in the parking lot. She was wearing sneakers, and her walking sound was very soft.
Almost no special noise.
She suddenly felt that this place was too quiet.
She felt the sound of footsteps behind her.
Shen Shu's hair was slightly numb, and she turned around immediately... There was no one behind her, and there was a restaurant not far away. The lights were brightly lit everywhere, and there was still the aroma of the lawn in the wind.
Shen Shu breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the side of the car and prepared to open it, the feeling of being watched came from the vest again.
She didn't look back this time, took the box and opened the car door immediately.
The door closes and locks.
Then through the glass window, I saw Xu Jinman's figure walking from the direction of the restaurant.
Xu Jinman got into the car and keenly noticed the change in Shen Shu's face, and asked aloud.
Shen Shu: "Maybe I've been a little sensitive recently, and I always feel that someone is following me."
It's not the first time Shen Shu has this feeling, but she didn't find anything in the end. Tong Jia checked the surveillance for this matter last time, but she didn't find anyone suspicious.
Xu Jinman's brows were slightly condensed when he heard this, and his sharp eyes swept out: "Sometimes intuition is the most accurate, don't be alone these days, let Tong Jia or Xinxin follow you when you go out."
Since filming, she doesn't run around too much by herself.But looking at Xu Jinman's worried expression, she said: "They also have their own affairs, it is impossible to follow me 24 hours a day."
Xu Jinman looked away from the window, and blurted out: "Just follow during the day, and I'll be there at night?"
Shen Shu looked sideways, staring at Xu Jinman's profile for two seconds: "Really?"
Xu Jinman started the car. Although this was quite normal, he still thought about it for a while and said, "If I'm not here, you should lock the door and let Tong Jia come upstairs."
She heard that there is a kind of fans in the entertainment industry called illegitimate fans, who follow stars wherever they go.
Shen Shu's popularity is getting higher and higher, this kind of thing may not happen.
Thinking of this, Xu Jinman's expression sank.
"Why aren't you here?"
"what?"
Xu Jinman didn't fully respond to Shen Shu's sudden question, and said after a while: "I mean what if I'm not here."
Shen Shu: "So Teacher Xu may not come home at night?"
Xu Jinman: "...?" This point of attention seems a bit off?
this title.
half teasing ingredients.
Xu Jinman thought for a while, smiled silently, pretended to be thinking seriously, and said, "It's possible."
Xu Jinman waited for a while but didn't wait for anyone to speak, so she tilted her head and glanced, Shen Shu tilted her head and didn't seem to have the intention to answer.
Xu Jinman stopped teasing her, and said seriously: "Open it and see what the manager sent you?"
Shen Shu: "Go home and watch."
Xu Jinman: "Aren't you curious? Said it was for you."
"Do not."
That's right, I've finished speaking one word.
Xu Jinman coughed and said gently, "Sister, take a look, I'm curious."
Shen Shu's ears were numb from the pricking of her sister.
This is actually Xu Jinman's normal voice, but because the volume of her speech has dropped, I don't know if Xu Jinman did this on purpose. Shen Shu was shocked to find that she could hear a hint of coquettishness...
And she was actually a little bit useful.
The box was small and rectangular, and the manager had a very sincere expression when he handed it to them.
Shen Shu picked up the box, untied the knot wrapped on it, and opened it.
Shen Shu paused.
"What is it?" Xu Jinman asked and turned his head to look at it. After seeing it, he laughed: "No wonder when I went back just now, the manager told me that you would like that gift. Maybe he didn't like it. Be careful to hear us at the door and think..."
In the second half of the sentence, she paused very delicately, a little deliberately, in order to relieve the atmosphere of teasing Shen Shu just now.
Shen Shu subconsciously asked, "Why?"
After asking, she came back to her senses, glanced at Xu Jinman calmly, followed her deliberate tone, and said deliberately: "Then you have to be careful."
With a calm expression, Shen Shu took out the rolled up leather whip from the box with her fingertips, shook it left and right in her hand, and then suddenly slapped it on the leather chair beside her leg.
'Snapped--'
The sound of the leather chair falling on the leather chair was not light or heavy, similar to the sound on the skin, which inexplicably made Xu Jinman's eyebrows twitch.
Hearing Shen Shu finish Yu's words: "Maybe this thing will be used on you."
Xu Jinman: "..."
She felt that they really needed to know more about each other.
She just wanted to say - she thought you had some special hobbies for collecting.
She would never have thought that she would hear such words from Shen Shu's mouth. Shen Shu's thoughts were more exciting than hers.
This is beyond words.
When they were about to get home, Cai Ying asked Shen Shu what she was doing in the group and posted a funny video.
Shen Shu said that she just came back from the racecourse.
Cai Ying: [how is it? !Is it fun? 】
Shen Shu suddenly thought of the time when she and Xu Jinman were kissing on horseback during the day, and suddenly felt a little dry on the skin of her mouth.
When Shen Shu heard the sound of the car door being locked, she lowered her head and replied: [Well, it's quite fun. 】
Cai Ying: 【Have you seen my little flower horse? 】
Shen Shu: [I see, it's very cute. 】
Xu Jinman walked to her in two steps from behind, and also took out her mobile phone: [Short, cute, very suitable for you. 】
Cai Ying: [?Are you connoting me?Short and small?Where am I short?Can you make it clear?Do you have a conscience?Give me back my gold card! 】
Cai Ying: [@徐锦曼 you are a woman who crosses rivers and demolishes bridges. 】
Xu Jinman: 【…….jpg】
Xu Jinman laughed: "The education level of the little kid is pretty good."
Shen Shu gave Xu Jinman a look: "You are young too."
Xu Jinman: "?"
Ok?
Going upstairs, Xu Jinman talked about the banquet held by Chen Bo.
"The Cai family should also go in previous years." Xu Jinman closed the door.
Shen Shu said: "Cai Ying won't go, she doesn't like this kind of occasion just like me."
Xu Jinman said: "Look at that time, if you don't want to go, then don't go."
Shen Shu dragged her shoes, and when she bent over, she put her arms on her knees and said, "Well, we'll see when the time comes."
Xu Jinman followed behind and noticed her small movements: "Are your legs sore?"
Shen Shu responded, at least when she got off the horse, she felt a little bit weak in her thighs.
Xu Jinman said: "It may be a little longer, and it may be more sour tomorrow. You can take a bath in a while to relieve it."
Shen Shu nodded: "Well, you don't feel it?"
Xu Jinman said, "Yes."
This body has not been exercised for a long time, let alone riding a horse. In addition, today on the horse, he has to control the horse, and at the same time, he is afraid that Shen Shu will not sit still.
Feel it in the legs too.
But it was not as big as Shen Shu's reaction. After all, Shen Shu was riding a horse for the first time.
As usual, Xu Jinman asked her to take a shower first, while she sat on the sofa to rest, while dealing with the news that she didn't have time to read during the day.
Plus she was waiting for another thing.
It's nine o'clock at night.
Chen Yue hasn't called yet, probably because Wang Zheng's disappearance had some influence on her before, and Xu Jinman was a little bit negative.
Occasionally, one or two voices can be heard in this small community, as well as the honking of cars.A bright neon light not far away could be seen outside the window of the balcony. At the moment Xu Jinman focused his attention, a light suddenly went dark.
'Om'
There was a vibration in the palm of the hand.
Shen Shu had just finished taking a shower and turned off the shower when she heard Xu Jinman's voice from outside the bathroom.
"Shu Shu, I have something to go out, you go to bed early."
Shen Shu pressed her eyebrows slightly: "Where are you going?"
Xu Jinman said: "Go to see Chen Yue, it may be late when I come back, I will tell you tomorrow morning."
After Shen Shu changed her clothes, the light in the living room was still on. Xu Jinman told her that she asked Chen Yue to track down that person named Wang Zheng.
She faintly sweated for Xu Jinman.
Can Xu Jinman get the answer she wants to know tonight?
Will hear, or see what kind of secret.
Xu Jinman's car drove directly to the station, and after a while the co-pilot's door opened from the outside, and Chen Yue got into the car in a hurry.
"Mr. Xu."
Chen Yue also knew how important this matter was to Xu Jinman.
Hand over the things in your arms.
Those were two photos, old white paper with written records and some numbers on it.She didn't look carefully, but only saw the names of Xu Tao and Lu Yun, and put them back.
"Mr. Xu, I haven't seen this thing before." Chen Yue saw her reaction and immediately assured her.
This is the truth, he takes money to do things and will not cause trouble for himself.
Xu Jinman: "Go back by yourself and send me a card number."
After Chen Yue left, Xu Jinman drove the car to a relatively secluded place, and then took out the photo again.
It should be a photo secretly taken by Wang Zheng, and the paper has been preserved for some years.
Pixels are not high-definition in a dim environment. Because of the pixels, the paper has a rough feeling, just like photos from newspapers in the old society.
Fortunately, I can still read the content written on it.
The headlights were not clear enough, Xu Jinman turned on the phone camera, and the bright light was like a symbol shot into a dark dry well.
The content of the first sheet.
The date was first written on the top of the head, and the date written on this piece of paper was the year Xu Tao and Lu Yun got married.
The first one is Xu Tao, alpha attribute S-level, blood type, and his birth date, birth time, accurate to the second.The level of detail in the horoscope is astonishing.
The second article reads.
Marriageable persons: six people.
Below are the names of six people.
Xu Jinman read it line by line.
The gender attributes of these people are all S-level Omega, some have just differentiated, some have differentiated for a while, the same detailed information as Xu Tao, but there is another one behind——
Matching degree.
The lowest is 60%.
The highest is 95%.
And the owner with the highest matching degree is Lu Yun.
One week of differentiation, high matching, and extremely high gene matching rate.
Xu Jinman took a deep breath, this is not the end, what made her feel unbelievable was that Lu Yun said more words than others.
Wrap it in parentheses.
It says——
(Note: The surname Xu is a close relative within three generations.)
