Chapter 172 Jiang Jintong Chapter 15
He pointed to the sofa next to him and watched Xie Luo sit down as he wished.
Xie Luo sat on the sofa with his legs together, clenched his fists, and looked at Jiang Jintong nervously.
"Jintong, do you have anything to tell me?"
"Cough cough."
Jiang Jintong stood up. Although he still looked gentle and calm, there seemed to be something suppressed in his eyes.
He took the teapot from the table with his slender white fingertips and slowly poured a cup of black tea for Xie Luo.
"I heard that you have seen Jiang Jintong during the day, right?"
The young man spoke in a nonchalant tone, as if he didn't care about the matter at all, and was as casual as if he was asking Xie Luo what he had eaten for lunch.
“… ….”
Another fatal question.
Xie Luo experienced two life-threatening questions in a short day. It was also the first time that she began to think that the high salary of the Jiang family was not easy to get.
Xie Luo seemed to have gotten closer to Jiang Jintong in recent days, but in fact, they were not much closer.
Because Xie Luo always knew that their positions remained unchanged.
Xie Luo didn't even dare to think about becoming friends with the boss, at least in the Jiang family, Xie Luo didn't dare to think about it.
She took a deep breath and stared at the young man in front of her seriously: "What exactly does Jintong want to hear from me?"
"Tell the truth, because I want to know what you think, Xiao Luo."
"Then can I ask you to promise me one thing first? As long as you promise me, I will tell you everything I think."
"If you don't agree, there's no need for us to talk about this topic anymore."
"whats the matter?"
"No matter what I said here today, you will not fire me, and you will let me get the internship certificate and leave the Jiang family safely."
"I can guarantee that as long as you don't push me, the content of our conversation today will never be leaked from me."
The young man took a look at the serious expression of the girl in front of him, a little surprised, but quickly nodded and replied: "... OK."
"I guess that person during the day wasn't you?"
"Wait a minute, this is not my fault. You two are so different. One of you has a terrible temper, and the other has an unbelievable good temper. It's hard for anyone not to be suspicious."
"Besides, you and Jintong are quite familiar with each other, so you will naturally know that the person during the day was not you."
"It's definitely not me, but it's also me, Xiao Luo, don't you think it's scary?"
After listening to Xie Luo's words, Jiang Jintong paused for a moment, but finally asked what was on his mind.
After all, the thing of having two personalities is really scary.
"It's not that scary, but you two do look alike. He's your twin brother, right? Are you the older brother?"
"... ...?"
Jiang Jintong's fingertips suddenly paused. He glanced at Xie Luo inconspicuously and found that the other party was really looking at him seriously. Then he concealed the emotions in his eyes.
He covered his lips, his eyes were gentle, "I'm not the older brother. To be precise, the other one should be the older brother."
"He and I...are twin brothers indeed."
Xie Luo nodded. It seemed that things were indeed as she had guessed.
But at the moment, Xie Luo was still too nervous and didn't notice that the other person's feet had unconsciously shrunk into the blanket.
And just now, you could clearly see some white gauze on his feet.
Even their wounds were the same.
"Aren't you surprised, Xiao Luo? He and I both used Jiang Jintong's identity."
"It's okay. As long as you continue to pay me and give me the internship certificate, it's not a big deal."
"Everyone has a lot of unspeakable secrets. You and he share the same identity, probably because you two were forced to do so, so I don't feel scared or surprised."
Jiang Jintong lowered his eyes, but he had already prepared his words in his heart.
When he raised his eyes again, the oppressive feeling had long gone, and the only thing left was the extreme gentleness: "I am really surprised that Xiaoluo can say this. I am so happy, Xiaoluo."
"I thought you would hate me, or you would not be able to accept such a thing, and then you would distance yourself from me."
"Looks like I'm overthinking it."
"... ...Yeah?"
Xie Luo touched the bridge of her nose. At this moment, facing Jiang Jintong's eyes, it became difficult for her to say some hypocritical words.
She could only try to look as sincere as possible.
It was probably inevitable that they would drift further and further apart. Xie Luo could feel that the other party wanted to get closer to her desperately, but she couldn't figure it out, and she had no intention of really making friends with him.
Because Xie Shi really couldn't think of any reason why Jiang Jintong must be friends with her.
Even if there is a reason to get close to her, it shouldn't be as a friend.
Jiang Jintong is an adult male, and she is also an adult female. The easiest emotion for them to develop towards the opposite sex should not be close friendship.
And the other person is actually very strange. When he is with me, he always intentionally or unintentionally brings the topic back to my childhood.
Rather than saying that he was chatting with Xie Luo, it would be more accurate to say that he was recalling something through his present self.
It was a feeling that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
Xie Luo didn't understand why. She didn't actually hate Jiang Jintong, but if she really wanted to be friends with her, it was impossible.
It’s the same old saying, how can workers and bosses become true friends?
Xie Luo is no longer the little girl who knows nothing. She is wary of people.
Besides, she doesn't like things that are too complicated.
She did not delve into the doubts about Jiang Jintong's identity, probably because she did not care about it.
The more you know, the worse it is.
Some things should just be left alone rather than digging into them.
Jiang Jintong sighed and glanced at Xie Luo, only to find that there was even a hint of guilt on the other person's face that he didn't have time to retract.
In fact, he could have anticipated this situation from the very beginning.
He wants to be friends with the other person, but the other person may not really accept it. This is a very normal thing.
Because he himself was full of deceptions, he reluctantly kept Xie Luo by his side.
For example, now, he knew that the other party's guess was wrong, but he still subconsciously chose to deceive and confirm her wrong idea.
Because it is good for him.
Faced with various complex relationships, he resolutely chose to maximize his own interests.
As long as the result is what he wants, what's wrong with that?
If he wanted, he could let Xie Luo play the game of house with him as a lifelong good friend.
But there was a corner in Jiang Jintong's heart that remained empty. He didn't want to be hypocritical about Xie Luo.
Because behind the hypocrisy and deception, he actually still longs for some truth.
It's really absurd and ridiculous.
