Chapter 80
Ruan Mohan's cold voice sounded again: "Why boil the eggs?"
Jian Shuo was still chewing the big bite of egg he had just bitten hard, squinting at Ruan Mohan.
Ruan Mohan said indifferently: "I ate the eggs you boiled."
"It's up to you, why boil eggs?"
Jian Shuo swallowed the egg in her mouth, smiled coquettishly and slyly, and climbed up to her blooming rose-like cheeks, with a seductive and teasing voice: "Master—"
Ruan Qingyin, who was burying her head in eating noodles, raised her head and said coldly, "Speak well."
Jian Shuo rolled her eyes and let out a "sneer", and asked Ruan Mohan, "Is it delicious?"
Ruan Mohan: "General."
"The taste of the egg white is not elastic enough, and the surface of the egg yolk turns gray-green, indicating that the egg has been cooked for too long, and the ferrous ions in the egg yolk combine with the sulfur ions in the egg white to form insoluble ferrous sulfide..."
"Ruan Mohan!" Jian Shuo yelled, and started singing again to stop Ruan Mohan from rambling: "Unforgettable tonight, unforgettable tonight..."
Ruan Mohan stopped talking.
Jian Shuo: "You see, because I cook eggs for you so sincerely, you should think they are delicious! Don't they all say that cooking is like cooking...... Don't they all say that cooking should be done with love!"
She asked Ruan Mohan again: "Is it delicious?"
"Is it delicious? Is it delicious? Is it delicious?"
Ruan Mohan expressionless: "It's delicious."
Jian Shuo grinned: "Ruan Mohan, I know you said it's delicious to keep me from quarreling with you, but you said it's delicious!"
Ruan Mohan and Ruan Qingyin looked at each other with the eyes of "look there is an idiot here".
Ruan Mohan: "Tell me, why do you boil eggs?"
Jian Shuo smiled slyly: "Since you think it's delicious..."
The moment she opened her palms to Ruan Mohan, she suddenly had an idea.
"Shake hands." She said to Ruan Mohan.
Ruan Mo gave her a cold look.
"Hey, just kidding." Jian Shuo said, "Actually, I cooked eggs tonight just to show off, since you think it's delicious..."
She smiled and shook her open palm: "Can you give me a reward of 100 yuan?"
"You're blackmailing!" Ruan Qingyin said, "Your monthly salary is only two hundred and fifty, and you get a hundred rewards for cooking eggs once!"
Ruan Mohan had no expression on his face, he didn't agree to her intention, he just said: "Take away the bowls and chopsticks."
Ruan Qingyin whistled and walked to the sofa to watch a movie.
Jian Shuo muttered as he packed the dishes, and raised his head to glance at Ruan Mohan.
Ruan Mo looked at her coldly.
"Oh, okay, okay, I'll keep quiet." Jian Shuo made a zipper gesture with her slender fingers, pulled it along her lips, and walked away with the bowl and chopsticks.
******
Late at night, Ruan Mohan's bedroom.
"Want to continue?"
"Do not want to."
Jian Shuo made a coquettish "hum".
She leaned over, with thick black curly long hair hanging on Ruan Mohan's collarbone.
It's like someone's mind.
Ruan Mohan's skin is cold and white, and his black hair is like ink. Compared with each other, it looks like an ink painting made of thick ink.
"What about you? Do you want to continue?"
Ruan Mohan reached out, but Jian Shuo hid for a while.
Ruan Mohan looked at her, and there was an indescribable light in his eyes, which flashed by.
"What's your expression?" Jian Shuo lowered her head, bit Ruan Mohan's earlobe, and brushed the little mole on the earlobe with her cat's tongue: "It's not what you think, I don't hate you touching me."
"It's just..." Jian Shuo raised her finger, showing a smug and sly smile: "Who is more difficult?"
Under the pale yellow light at the head of the bed, her fingers were shining brightly.
"It doesn't seem to be me."
Ruan Mohan poked his fingers over.
"Hey, you..." Jian Shuo felt a little panicked when he felt Ruan Mohan's movements.
"Don't close your eyes." Ruan Mohan's voice was indifferent, but the frequency was the same as Jian Shuo's: "Look at me."
"Don't even blink."
She asked Jian Shuo to lean over, kissed Jian Shuo's slender eyelashes, and then pushed them back, allowing Jian Shuo to support his body with his hands.
Non-stop action.
A pair of light brown eyes seemed to want to see into Jian Shuo's heart.
The feeling of Jian Shuo's heart beating, following Ruan Mo's movements, became worse than before.
"Ruan Mohan, Ruan Mohan, Ruan Mohan."
She murmured, like the instinct of the body.
The roses on her face bloomed at a faster speed and more beautifully.
Ruan Mohan stroked the side of Jian Shuo's face with the other hand, "You must always...look at me."
******
On Tuesday morning, Ruan Mohan walked into the kitchen while Ruan Qingyin was washing up.
Jian Shuo is making breakfast.
Ruan Mohan expressionless: "Take out your phone."
"Why?" Jian Shuo said lazily, "If you ask me to take it, I will take it?"
But he reached into his pocket and took out his phone.
"Receipt QR code." Ruan Mohan said concisely.
She scanned it with her mobile phone, and a beautiful voice sounded. Jian Shuo looked down and saw that 100 yuan had arrived.
Ruan Mohan had already turned around and was about to walk out of the kitchen.
"Wait a minute." Jian Shuo smiled coquettishly and seductively, like a cat, slipped to the kitchen door, blocking Ruan Mohan's way.
She was slightly taller than Ruan Mohan, when she lowered her head, her bright red lips moved to Ruan Mohan's ear.
Facing the most sensitive place, exhale slightly when speaking: "Why do you secretly give it to me while Ruan Qingyin is brushing her teeth?"
Ruan Mohan glanced at her expressionlessly, unmoved.
Jian Shuo failed to seduce her, and her tone returned to normal: "Say it."
"If you don't tell me, I won't let you go."
Ruan Mohan said indifferently: "Don't let me go, that's fine."
"If you delay making breakfast, your monthly salary will be deducted, and you will be deducted 1 for [-] minute late."
"You only gave me one hundred in total!" Jian Shuo cried out, his cat-like eyes narrowed: "Ruan Mohan, you vicious woman."
"You said..." Jian Shuo couldn't drag Ruan Mohan, and decided to take the initiative: "Compared to Ruan Qingyin, do you love me more?"
Ruan Mohan looked at her indifferently: "No."
"Then why did you secretly give me pocket money instead of Ruan Qingyin?" Jian Shuo smiled like a child whose parents favored him.
Ruan Mohan: "Yinyin is only nine years old, and she has too much pocket money, which is very troublesome for her."
"I'm also nine years old." Jian Shuo smiled.
Ruan Mohan: "Take out your ID card."
Jian Shuo let out a "hum" and stepped aside to open the door.
Ruan Mohan left a sentence before leaving: "Don't pretend to be tender."
"Who is pretending to be tender?" Jian Shuo shouted: "I am so tender! You...you..."
Didn't you eat it?
Ruan Mohan had already closed the kitchen door and left.
******
At six o'clock in the evening, Ruan Mohan was still the only one who got off work on time in the whole listening.
Back home with a laptop, Jian Shuo quickly came over singing "Unforgettable Tonight".
"Do you want me to change your shoes for you?"
He squatted down in front of Ruan Mohan.
Ruan Mohan stood, looked down at her lightly.
In July, when the cicadas are breathing heavily and the thunder is dry, it is already the season when there is no need to wear silk stockings.Ruan Mo's white ankles were exposed naked in front of Jian Shuo.
Slender, cold white, like jade.
A thin black leather strap was wrapped around the ankle. Ruan Mohan's ankle was too thin to be filled, and the strap hung loosely on the instep.
Black leather, more lined insteps are as white as the moon.
Jian Shuo's fingers delicately caressed Ruan Mohan's ankle, which was cool and slippery.
Ruan Mohan closed his eyes slightly, then opened them again.
Jian Shuo's fingers caressed Ruan Mohan's instep, then lifted her pair of jade feet and put them into the slippers.
Ruan Mohan walked into the living room with an indifferent face, and sat down at the desk.
Jian Shuo smiled and leaned over again: "Do you want some water?"
Ruan Mohan glanced at her.
Jian Shuo: "I'll pour it for you!"
Jian Shuo hummed the melody of "Boom Boom Boom", spun one circle, and then another circle, and spun into the kitchen.
When she came out with a glass of water, she still spun one circle, and then another circle, and the water spilled on the wooden floor, almost causing her to slip.
Jian Shuo patted his chest and was still in shock: "Fortunately, I can do splits!"
She brought water to Ruan Mohan.
Ruan Mohan didn't look at the water glass, but looked at her coldly: "Who asked you to put it?"
Jane Shuo: ...
"Seeing it so soon?" She muttered in a low voice, "Are your eyes so poisonous..."
She slipped to the bookcase, picked up the third photo frame that was next to Ruan Qiu and Ruan Qingyin's photo frame, slipped back, and put it next to Ruan Mohan's computer.
The photo in the photo frame shows Jian Shuo's coquettish and charming face. I don't know what beauty camera I used. It has that kind of cat special effect, two pointy ears, two blushes on the cheeks, and further down, there are two curls The beard is delicate and open.
Jian Shuo carefully glanced at Ruan Mohan's face, Ruan Mohan was expressionless.
Jian Shuo opened his mouth to explain: "I saw how troublesome it was for you to lean your phone against the computer screen yesterday."
"Besides, you didn't use the beautification feature in that photo, but you took it as a snapshot. It looks like I have a big face, like an idiot, which doesn't fit your image of me in your mind."
"I developed this photo and bought this photo frame purely for your convenience."
That's why she tried her best when cooking dinner last night and asked Ruan Mohan for 100 yuan as a reward - to buy a photo frame.
"I just stay on the bookshelf during the day, when you go home and work overtime..." Jian Shuo pushed the photo frame to Ruan Mohan's computer screen again: "You just look at me like this."
Ruan Mohan was still expressionless and indifferent.
Jian Shuo decided to go all out and make it clear once: "Actually, I have prepared another photo frame and brought it to the office for you."
Ruan Mohan ignored Jian Shuo and started typing on the computer.
"Angry?"
Ruan Mohan didn't speak.
"I've lived here for so long, I already have pink slippers, and I have a photo frame for me, isn't that too much?"
Ruan Mohan still didn't speak.
"I put the photo frame next to Ruan Qiu and Ruan Qingyin, at the end of the bookshelf, without occupying their place."
Ruan Mohan still did not speak.
"Their photos are all seven inches. I originally wanted to print eight inches, but I only printed seven inches later."
She looked at Ruan Mohan's slender fingers flying over the computer keyboard, as if she didn't hear what she was saying at all.
The more she talked, the more wronged she became: "Hey, Ruan Mohan! Are you treating me..."
"Change photo."
Jian Shuo was taken aback.
Ruan Mo said coldly: "I don't like beautified photos, no special effects, no skin grinding, nothing."
"Both are."
Jian Shuo stared blankly at her and said nothing.
Ruan Mohan finally paused typing and raised his head: "Is there a problem?"
Jian Shuo shook her head: "No problem!"
She came to her senses, and laughed again, and there was a little bit of cuteness, or in other words, cuteness in the flirtatious.
Very strange collision.
like a cat.
She hummed "Boom Boom Boom" and wanted to spin into the kitchen, but Ruan Mohan called her: "Come here."
Jian Shuo stopped dancing and walked over.
"Look down."
Jian Shuo bowed her head.
Ruan Mohan stared at the back of her round, furry head, and exhaled slightly.
As if the desire that had been suppressed for a long time was finally satisfied, he rubbed Jian Shuo's head: "Go."
Jian Shuo smiled and walked to the kitchen.
Ruan Qingyin's voice suddenly sounded: "Mom, why do you keep looking at Jian Shuo?"
******
Jian Shuo was taken aback.
Ruan Qingyin was clearly watching a movie, so she pressed pause.
Jian Shuo didn't watch a movie with Ruan Qingyin today, she leaned against the entrance and played with her mobile phone, pricking up her ears while playing, like a cat waiting for the sound of its master's footsteps.
At this time, Ruan Qingyin pressed pause, and she glanced at the TV screen, only to realize that she had also watched this movie.
Most people have watched "Titanic", but Jian Shuo remembered that she watched it with Bai Jingxian.
The reason why I remember it is because Jian Shuo has seen very few movies.The reason why I watched less was because Jian Shuo couldn't empathize with most of the movies.
For example, this "Titanic", she remembered that Bai Jingxian cried while watching it, but she was at a loss.
She asked Bai Jingxian: "Why does he dance when she dances?"
"Why did he give her the only plank? What an idiot."
Bai Jingxian cried and cried, but was amused by her question: "You are still young."
Bai Jingxian said: "You will understand when you grow up."
Jian Shuo didn't know what time Bai Jingxian meant by "grow up". Anyway, she waited until the age when she felt interested in Chu Xingyun, or when she was in her 20s and many of her peers were getting married and having children.
She still can't empathize with any movie.
I still don't understand why the man named Jack said to the woman named Rose, "If you dance, I will dance too".
Until now, at this very moment, she was staring at the TV screen where Ruan Qingyin pressed the pause button, and the frame where the picture was paused happened to be Rose leaning over the wooden board and Jack soaking in the ice water.
Jian Shuo suddenly understood.
Not understanding why Jack gave up the plank to Rose.
Instead, she understood what she would do if she encountered this situation.
She stared at the TV screen for a while, then turned her head and said to Ruan Mohan, "I will also climb the wooden board."
Ruan Mohan suddenly understood, nodded his head indifferently, and said "yes" lightly.
Just cool.
Jian Shuo laughed, she thought it was good to meet Ruan Mohan.
Just like what Ruan Mohan said, when they met each other, they found the same kind.
She would let Ruan Mohan bend over the plank, and she would climb up the plank herself.
Float together, or sink together.Live together, or die together.
Jian Shuo thought about it, feeling extremely satisfied, and smiled flirtatiously and seductively.
However, Ruan Qingyin's question was not answered.
"Why?" Ruan Qingyin asked again: "Mom, why do you keep looking at Jian Shuo?"
Ruan Mohan said lightly, "Because I like Jian Shuo."
Jian Shuo was taken aback.
She didn't expect Ruan Mohan to be so straightforward.
She remembered that liking someone of the same sex seemed like a difficult thing to tell everyone else, especially her own relatives.
She stared blankly at Ruan Mohan, and Ruan Qingyin quietly looked at Ruan Mohan.
Ruan Qingyin asked again: "Just like Jack likes Rose, and Rose likes Jack?"
"Correct."
Ruan Qingyin gave a faint "Oh", not surprised at all.
Ruan Mohan asked: "Can you understand?"
"No." Ruan Qingyin shook her head: "It's like I can't understand why Jack likes Rose, I just heard that the two of them like each other in their lines."
Jian Shuo couldn't help interjecting: "Then you still watch love movies?"
Ruan Qingyin rolled her eyes: "I just keep reading because I don't understand."
Ruan Mohan said, "It's okay."
Ruan Qingyin asked: "Will I understand when I grow up?"
Ruan Mohan thought for a while: "Not really."
"Maybe you won't understand it all your life. Or maybe you meet someone of the same kind and understand it all at once."
"What is the same kind?"
"It's hard to tell." Ruan Mohan pursed the corners of his lips: "You will know when you meet."
******
Wednesday morning, after the regular meeting of the listening team and the GS team.
"Director Ruan." Jiang Karen said with an elegant smile, "This may be the last time I will ask you to discuss work."
Ruan Mohan looked indifferent, and walked towards Jiang Kailun from the end of the conference table.
Others walked out of the meeting room one after another. A director of another department, the one Ruan Mohan heard that he had bought a villa, passed by Ruan Mohan and whispered to her, "Director Ruan, come on."
"You must be the one with the most bonuses, but you deserve it."
He smiled at Ruan Mohan and left.
Ruan Mohan sat opposite Jiang Kailun.
Jiang Kailun said with a smile: "Director Ruan, he is right. You are undoubtedly one of the biggest contributors to the successful cooperation between Lingyin and GS."
"You deserve the richest reward."
Ruan Mohan said lightly: "Success? To whom is success? Listening or GS?"
"It doesn't count."
Jiang Kailun was not surprised when he heard this, but instead smiled: "You already know?"
"Did you see the abnormality from the data you have access to?"
Ruan Mohan nodded.
Jiang Kailun smiled approvingly, "I didn't misread you."
"When I saw your photo in the team profile, I was thinking, if anyone in Listening can see the truth in advance, it must be you."
Ruan Mohan asked: "You and Ms. Bai, have you known each other for a long time?"
Jiang Karen nodded with a smile: "We are university alumni."
"It's just that Jingxian dropped out of school early, so you can't find her name in the student handbook."
Jiang Kailun's sable eyes looked at Ruan Mohan: "Director Ruan, I know you are as smart as you, so I must have someone check me and her."
Ruan Mohan asked: "Why did she drop out?"
Jiang Karen: "She finds it boring."
Ruan Mohan nodded.
She is not surprised.
From the day Bai Jingxian fell on the carpet, she already knew who Bai Jingxian was——
Bai Jingxian is the same kind as Jiang Kailun.
A man without emotion.
A person who can use his own children as bait to get everything he wants.
Ruan Mohan asked again: "Does Ms. Bai know Yao Yuan?"
"No." Jiang Karen shook her head: "She is different from me, she doesn't need to be trained."
"She's been like that since I met her in college."
Ruan Mohan asked: "She was born in the Bai family, and her family background is not bad. She married Jian Ming and hid in Jian's family for more than ten years, just to get listening?"
"Why does she want to be heard?"
Jiang Kailun: "You already know that Jingxian set up the cooperation between Lingyin and GS from the very beginning, in order to take advantage of the discrepancy between product upgrades and market share with me to push Lingyin into bankruptcy. With the capital of Baijia, I use the shares of GS to acquire Lingyin."
"It's your cleverness that you can see through all of this."
"But..." Jiang Kailun laughed, "It's your stupidity for asking that question just now."
"You asked that question, which shows that you are still far from becoming an emotionless person."
Jiang Karen put her hands on the conference table, her pale pink nails were still shining flawlessly under the ceiling light of the conference room.
She stretched out her slender index finger and slowly moved forward, ready to touch the back of Ruan Mohan's hand like before.
She said: "If you become an emotionless person, you will find out how boring the world is."
"No love, no hate. No joy, no sorrow. Not even sexual desire. In this case, you have to artificially set a goal for yourself."
"Yang Haining's eyes are as bright as a torch. For Jing Xian, this is a difficult game. It is rare to arouse her interest in playing."
Ruan Mohan watched Jiang Kailun's fingertips move closer to her.
She knew what kind of touch she was about to usher in.
Not cold, not warm, always constant temperature, like a non-living body without flaws.
Jiang Kailun seemed to be able to see through what she was thinking, and smiled gracefully and calmly: "Director Ruan, I know you still often dream about Ruan Qiu."
"Dream of dirty snow, messy steps, trembling body, gray eyes."
Ruan Mohan remained silent.
Jiang Kailun's mink-like eyes can see through people's hearts.
Her dream, as described by Jiang Kailun, was never complete, piece by piece, all messy fragments.
It's like the subconscious mind of the body has the ability to protect itself, knowing that if these fragmentary pictures are put together to form a complete picture, Ruan Mohan must not be able to bear it.
Therefore, Jiang Kailun's calm voice carried a different kind of temptation: "Isn't it good to become a person who has no emotions and no pain?"
Ruan Mohan withdrew her hand when Jiang Kailun's fingertips were about to touch the back of her hand: "Thank you, Mr. Jiang."
"But I'm not interested."
She stands up to leave.
Jiang Kailun: "Director Ruan, since you already know that the ship is going to sink, why are you still stubbornly standing on the ship?"
Strangely, at that moment, what popped into Ruan Mohan's mind were Jian Shuo's words.
They are respectively related to two movies, and they are also related to two boats.
The first sentence is about "The Pianist at Sea": "When you go ashore, I will go ashore. If you are on the boat, I will stay on the boat."
The second sentence about "Titanic": "I will climb the plank too."
Float together, sink together.Live together, die together.
Ruan Mohan turned back indifferently: "Mr. Jiang, you can indeed see through people's hearts, and you can also see through the situation."
"But I think there are still some things that you understood ten years ago, but you don't understand now."
She directly closed the door of the conference room and left.
Ruan Mohan, who has sensitive ears, couldn't hear Jiang Kailun's last words:
"Are you sure, Jian Shuo will make the same choice as you?"
******
At six o'clock in the afternoon, it was off-duty time, no one planned to leave, and the whole company was filled with the extraordinary excitement that the dawn of victory was approaching.
Only Ruan Mohan walked out of the office with his laptop and came to the underground parking lot.
Feed the cat and drive home.
The moment he opened the door, Ruan Mohan heard a line from the movie: "I don't know how to say goodbye, I can't speak."
Ruan Mohan's sensitive ears have heard that this movie is "Roman Holiday".
A princess from a certain European country and a reporter from a Roman newspaper met by chance and shared a day off.
But just like Cinderella's crystal slipper, it disappears immediately when twelve o'clock arrives.All magic and holidays have an end.
At that time, Ruan Mohan had already realized one thing.
Before she opened the door and saw the living room.
That is: since she can hear the lines of the movie clearly, instead of hearing Ruan Qingyin and Jian Shuo arguing and bickering.
She took a breath without showing any signs of expression, without changing her shoes, she stood at the entrance and asked Ruan Qingyin: "Where's Jian Shuo?"
Ruan Qingyin stared at the TV screen: "She's gone out."
"Where did you go?"
"I don't know." Ruan Qingyin: "She was watching a movie with me, but she went out after receiving a WeChat message."
Ruan Mohan stood quietly.
one second.
two seconds.
three seconds.
Ruan Mohan said, "I'll order takeaway for you, and then I'll go out too."
