I want to say thank you to him.
Video invitation, this boldness may come from the loneliness of the remaining life after the disaster.
When the ringing was about to end, Xu Jingxi answered the call, and it was dark over there.
Li Ying sat down in front of the desk, rested his chin on his arms, and listened to the sounds coming from over there.
Someone talked to Mr. Xu, a clever political animal: "Sir, the data of BitlnfoCharts."
The language is in English, and the currency is bits or ether.
I'm involved in business and politics.
Come to think of it, the time difference in Thailand is one hour behind. How could Xu Jingxi be alone at this time?
You may be surrounded by a few analysts, someone's female companion and new love interest.
There was a rustle, a pen dropped on the table, and the sound of a chair being pulled away.
After two or three minutes, silence fell.
Xu Jingxi left the room, walked steadily down the steps with leather shoes, and sat down on the leather sofa facing the seaside, as if he was just finding a place to sit.
The sea breeze in Koh Samui was heavy, and the collar of his black shirt with fine fabrics was fluttered by the wind. The man glanced at his phone and asked, "What have you eaten?"
Li Ying was slightly startled, thinking about what to eat. Then he looked at himself on the phone. His face was clean, except for a prominent red mark on the edge of his carotid artery, and the remaining half was hidden by the collar of his sweater.
Her skin is fair and the redness is more obvious.
She asked softly: "Is it the neck?"
There is silence over there.
It seems that my guess is right.
"The scratch is not ketchup." Li Ying explained, "I was moving things for a client today and I accidentally got scratched by the glass."
She babbled, "The cut was very deep, and there was a lot of blood on my clothes, which I didn't wash off."
Xu Jingxi leaned on the back of the sofa and smiled inexplicably: "Look how deep it is."
Li Ying um.
He put his phone down like a darling and pointed the camera at himself.
Lifting the collar of the sweater, the pink sweater with a V-neck design was gently opened, exposing the delicate white collarbone.
She was born with milky white muscles, and her shoulders were very thin, with the curvature of her acromions forming the shape of slender and smooth beauty shoulders.
The pink sweater fabric can hang on the jade arm.
It wasn't that she meant to be so exposed. The sweater she wore today was a bit loose and had a large V-neck. Even if she lifted it slightly, her shoulders were too tender and most of it would slide off, revealing a large area of her body.
After all, the little girl is unsophisticated, with a docile look and an upturned face, a slender neck, and a pair of timid eyes looking at people, like a kitten abandoned on a street corner.
A trace of smile overflowed from his nose, Xu Jingxi's lips curled slightly: "I won't do it next time."
Li Ying was puzzled: "You don't want anything."
Xu Jingxi's voice didn't waver at all: "Show outsiders your body."
Even the erotic words passed through his mouth without making anyone feel uncomfortable.
For a moment, Li Ying gently raised her fingers, straightened the collar of her sweater, and smoothed her long hair down on both sides.
I couldn't imagine what kind of seductive behavior I had just done, but I didn't mean to expose my delicate body to that high-ranking person.
Perhaps at that time, Xu Jingxi would think that she was too frivolous and should not be looked at by the opposite sex easily. Li Ying lowered her head and said, "It hurts. There are no scar removal products in the room, only anti-inflammatory products. I was so busy all day that I forgot to go to the hospital. It's quite... I’m afraid of leaving scars, so I should go to the beauty salon tomorrow.”
Her voice was soft, like she was telling a story.
Part of it is jealousy, part of it is grievance of studying and working in a different place.
White waves roll on the beach.
Xu Jingxi's arms were resting loosely on the backrest, his knuckles hanging down slightly, and he held an unlit cigar, a high-quality Cohiba Behike cigar that had just been handed over by his bodyguard.
After a moment, he raised his arm and handed the cigar back to the bodyguard, signaling him not to disturb him.
A pair of peach blossom eyes were dull and thin. He turned his gaze slightly and looked at the waves of the sea in front of him: "Ask Xiao Li to deliver medicine to you. He knows the channels well in this regard."
Li Ying thought a little fondly, how could she get a hint that he was taking care of her.
She cautiously probed: "Is Mr. Xu going to support me?"
He smiled hoarsely: "Do you have the consciousness of being taken care of?"
A rhetorical question with great interest. What is very distinctive is that Xu Jingxi’s voice does not have the usual rich and bubbly voice of a man. He has the silky and lazy tone of a noble Beijing accent.
Very memorable.
Those words entered his eardrums in a daze, and Li Ying's heart felt weak. He tilted his head slightly and looked at the camera quietly, "Sir, what can I give you?"
Rather, I thought, what else could Xu Jingxi not offer in Sijiucheng?
"Is it glory and wealth?" Li Ying tried her best to smile sincerely, "A little more, such as the tenderness and care Mr. Xu gave me tonight."
Xu Jingxi asked: "Are you in need?"
"There is no shortage." Li Ying, who was sleepy at midnight, said softly, "But I want someone like Mr. Xu who sits in a powerful position to give it."
Xu Jingxi smiled, and that smile was not full of interest at all: "You are quite greedy, Li Ying."
Even through the pitch-black camera, one can imagine the relaxed disregard of the man behind the video. He is indeed the only noble man in the Four-Nine City with the best background.
Li Ying took a deep breath and softened her voice little by little: "Then why don't you turn on the camera and let me see you? I won't take screenshots and post them randomly on the Internet."
Xu Jingxi once said: "Work is inconvenient."
Come to think of it, when it comes to important matters, he is on guard against anyone. He has been in a high position for a long time and does not tell his secrets, how many stories he has. He does not say that he needs to go to Koh Samui, Thailand in person. It must be a big deal and he will not easily leave the picture.
But Li Ying had a lot to say to him. He had been alone in Beijing for about a month without any support.
"Sir, do you know that Mr. Zheng's phone case is a photo of his wife and children, and he even brought his female secretary out to spend money."
Xu Jingxi put his mobile phone on the coffee table, and was so bored that he fiddled with the macadamia nuts on the plate in front of him, peeling them off as soon as he pinched them. But he didn't eat them, and just peeled them and threw them on the plate as if to pass the time.
One by one.
Listen to Li Ying tell her story.
"I thought it was a joke when outsiders mentioned that art has become a tax haven."
"But after all this happened, the gallery is on holiday for the past two days."
After listening.
Xu Jingxi snorted: "I'm tired."
"Yes." Li Ying nodded, showing off her little calculation, "I have made enough for one semester, and art materials are too expensive."
She also likes to use extravagant and expensive paint necessities, which Principal Li has to pay for. But he was unwilling to lower the standards for using materials, so he could only earn part-time by himself.
Her tuition alone at school was more than 30,000 yuan a year, and she never asked Principal Li for it.
Principal Li takes care of her wife with peace of mind and plays with cats and flowers every day.
Art is free of charge.
Wiping his hands with a handkerchief, Xu Jingxi responded calmly: "Selling paintings."
"When Mr. Xu returns to Beijing, can I sell it to Mr. Xu?"
She is like a naughty child, giving you whatever you want.
From time to time, Xu Jingxi would happily peel nuts with his long fingers, and Xu Jingxi would just laugh twice without caring: "Is the Mr. Xu you call a victim?"
she thought to herself.
That's not to say that he was taken advantage of. How should I put it? The Mr. Xu in her mouth was the kind of person who could easily help her with a flick of his finger.
Naturally, she did not forcefully sell the oil painting in her hand for money, and it was a matter of mutual consent.
"Am I a poor painter? Isn't it worthy of your appreciation and collection?" Li Ying asked rhetorically.
Xu Jingxi put a loose smile on his lips and put the nut pulp on the plate: "Only Liu Huaiying can appreciate it."
Li Ying sniffed and said with melancholy, "Okay, then I'll sell it to him."
Xu Jingxi didn't understand her melancholy, but he didn't have much energy to spend on her. He raised his hand slightly and glanced at the time on his watch: "Busy first."
Before he hung up the video, Li Ying whispered softly: "Thank you for what happened tonight."
She could understand the reason and why the investigation into Sister Zhang was so fast.
