She originally wanted to eavesdrop, but Jing Ming got up with a smile and walked to the window, obviously not wanting her to hear the content of the phone call.
Lin Tongtong had no choice but to leave the study tactfully.
Thinking about it, she took out her mobile phone and quickly ran to a dark corner, unplugging Jing Qiu's phone number...
"Manager, it's me, Tongtong."
Jing Qiu was silent for a few seconds before speaking: "Well, what are you doing?"
"I came out of the boss's study just now. I saw your call, but the boss was busy and he didn't answer."
In order not to make Jing Qiu sad, she lied.
"Oh, so you're calling..."
"I want to ask you what's the matter? If there is something, I will urge the boss to call you back." Her tone was full of concern and enthusiasm.
Jing Qiu's voice was still calm, "Then I'll ask you."
"Okay, I will tell you what I know."
"Is the second master of the Jing family imprisoned in the castle?" Jing Qiu asked directly.
Lin Tongtong hesitated, this is a secret, the boss lied to others that Jing Erye had left the castle.
"Lin Tongtong, your silence means that this matter is true."
"Manager, I..."
"Is it because your boss won't let you talk about it?"
"Manager, since you know, don't tell me what I told you."
"You really didn't tell me, is the second master still alive?"
"Of course I'm alive, I have food and drink every day."
Jing Qiu was silent again, and after a while, she whispered: "I see, thank you."
"Manager, do you need your boss to call you back?"
"unnecessary!"
Jing Qiu hung up the phone, Lin Tongtong pouted, and walked slowly towards the door of the study...
"Miss Gu, you have the time to take care of my family affairs, why don't you treat me to dinner? May I come to see you now?"
Jing Ming's voice was a little unscrupulous, probably seeing that Lin Tongtong was gone.
Lin Tongtong stopped immediately...
It turned out that he was talking on the phone with Gu Xinyan, it's better not to eavesdrop.
After she left, Jing Ming continued to tease Gu Xinyan: "What? I said you don't have time for dinner?"
"Canglang, I heard that your father is ill. Your whole family is looking for Second Master Jing. If you know where he is, then tell your family directly. Don't make them worry."
"Second Master Jing has nothing to do with you, right? Why should you worry about him?"
"I'm not worried about him, I see your sister is worried."
Jing Ming's brows were knotted, and suddenly he felt uncomfortable...
This Jing Xuan has hurt her, she still has to look for it anxiously, does she have feelings for Jing Xuan?
Feeling depressed, he smiled lightly, "Okay, thank you, I'll call my sister right now."
"Then goodbye." Gu Xinyan hung up the phone.
Jing Ming sat on the black leather chair, lit a cigar, leaned on the back of the chair and turned around, looking at the continuous mountain peaks outside the window with deep eyes.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Zhang Ma said outside: "Sir, the snacks are here."
"Come in." He didn't move.
Zhang Ma opened the door and came in, put the plate in his hand on his table, took a careful look at him, and said in a low voice: "Miss Lin went to the east again. After being stopped by the bodyguards, she sat in the corridor and did not return to the room."
Jing Ming took a breath of cigarettes before slowly turning his head, "Give her a plate of pastries and let her take them in."
"This……"
"She already knows that Second Master Jing is in the east house."
"it is good."
Zhang Ma left before Jing Ming stubbed out his cigarette, picked up his cell phone and unplugged Jing Qiu's call...
The phone rang twice, and Jing Qiu cut it off.
Jing Ming rubbed his chin, thought for a while and sent her a message——
He is alive and well, don't worry.
Five minutes passed, but he didn't get a response from Jing Qiu.
Sighing, he stood up, took a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, stuffed it into his mouth, and walked out of the study slowly...
When Lin Tongtong saw Jing Xuan, he was really shocked, because his feet were in shackles, his face was still bruised, and two buttons of a white shirt were missing.
On the open chest, a bruise can still be seen faintly.
The room is clean but not very bright because the window is too small.
Jing Ming was reclining on a rocking chair, listening to the melodious music from the radio, beating the beat and humming a song in a leisurely way.
It seemed that he was very comfortable, without the slightest sense of pain or decadence.
If it weren't for the injury on his face, Lin Tongtong really doubted that the "help" he heard a few days ago was not from his mouth.
"Second Master." She called softly.
Jing Xuan closed his eyes slightly, put one hand on the armrest of the rocking chair, and continued humming to the beat leisurely.
Lin Tongtong had no choice but to take two steps closer, and raised her voice a little, "Second Master, the boss asked me to bring you some snacks."
Only then did Jing Xuan raise his eyelids, looking at her face, the sharp light in his eyes suddenly flashed...
"Who are you?" He sat up, his eyes widened.
Lin Tongtong smiled slightly, "Second Master, have you forgotten? Last time I drove here with you, it was raining heavily that day."
Jing Xuan let out an "oh" and touched his head...
To be honest, that day he thought that Jing Ming would give him money, his whole body was filled with excited cells, he kept talking to Jing Ming about the past, and he didn't even look at her carefully.
Now, staring at this delicate and beautiful Lin Tongtong, as if he saw Jing Qiu when he was young, his heart suddenly became restless.
"What's your name?" He smiled and winked at Lin Tongtong.
Lin Tongtong felt that his gaze was a bit ambiguous, so he hurriedly put the plate on the low cabinet next to him, stepped back a few steps and replied, "My name is Lin Tongtong."
"The name is good, the appearance is good, and..." He stopped after that.
He can't say that you look a bit like my sister.
However, this appearance, this skin that is as white as creamy fat, blown apart and elastic... When it fell into his eyes, it really looked like egg white, and he wished he could take a bite.
As soon as his heart became evil, his whole body would itch.
Standing up, he grabbed Lin Tongtong and smiled obscenely, "Are you Mr. Jing's personal maid?"
Seeing his lack of self-respect in his words and deeds, Lin Tongtong panicked, and looked at him warily, "No... no, I am his secretary."
"secretary?"
"Well, you...you let go." Lin Tongtong went to break his fingers.
But Jing Xuan pulled her into his arms with all his strength, raised her chin and smiled evilly, "I understand what my brother means, he regrets beating me, now let you stay with me, right?"
Lin Tongtong was startled when she heard this, and her face turned pale, "No! He just asked me to give you some snacks."
"No way? He knows that I haven't touched a woman for several days, so he has to give a young and beautiful one, hee hee... It's you, it must be you!"
As he spoke, he pushed Lin Tongtong towards the bed, and the fetters dragged on the ground with a clanging sound.
Lin Tongtong's heart was trembling, she pushed him hard, struggling: "Don't act recklessly! If you dare to touch me, he will kill you!"
Hearing this, Jing Xuan was shocked and stared at her in disbelief...
"He likes you?"
Lin Tongtong's feet were trembling, and his arms were still tightly held by him. At a critical moment, she had to protect herself.
"Yes, he likes me."
"You... already his lover?"
Lin Tongtong's eyes froze for a moment, and finally she shook her head, "No!"
"Since not, it means he doesn't want you yet! If you follow me, he won't have any objections." After speaking, Jing Xuan hugged her.
"Ah!" Lin Tongtong screamed, quick to wit, "I'm also a friend of Manager Jing Qiu!"
Jing Xuan was stunned again, he put her down slowly, and knit his brows together, "It's a mess, who is the real relationship with you?"
Lin Tongtong took the opportunity to push him away, jumped a few steps, and tugged at her skirt...
"Let me tell you, Manager Jing Qiu is worried about you. She called you today, and I came here for her sake! If I knew you were so shameless, I would definitely not give you snacks!"
Seeing that her little face was full of anger, Jing Xuan raised his head and laughed loudly: "Hahaha...Little girl, look at you angry, Second Master, I was just joking with you."
Lin Tongtong glared at him angrily, "You don't seem to be joking!"
"Hehe! Second Master, let me tell you, if I really wanted a woman, I would have tore your skirt and kissed you in my arms, but I didn't.
What does this mean? It means that I still can't bear to eat you now, but if I don't eat today, it doesn't mean I don't like you. If I go out one day, I will accept you as my little wife, and then I will love you well. "
Lin Tongtong's face turned white and red, and she said angrily, "Don't even think about it! I'll let the boss imprison you forever!"
"Hahaha...you are so naive, you have never seen anything in the world, but you are very cute." He waved his hands and winked at her, "Come, come here, let me take a good look at you again."
"I don't want to talk to you!" After Lin Tongtong finished speaking, she turned around and ran to pull the door.
As soon as the door opened, seeing Jing Ming outside, she was stunned, her little face froze.
Jing Ming patted her shoulder lightly, seeming to comfort her.
Immediately, his face sank, and he stepped into the room...
"Brother." Jing Xuan happily greeted him, smiling, "Are you going to let me out?"
Jing Ming stared at him, "What do you think?"
"Three days and three nights, should I go home?"
"Missing a woman?"
"Of course, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jing Ming grabbed his shoulder, and with two "bang bang", his fist hit his stomach like an iron hammer.
"Ah!" Jing Xuan bent over in pain, dripping with sweat.
As soon as Jing Ming let go, he fell to the ground...
"You! Why...why are you still beating me?"
He couldn't understand the brother's behavior, and as soon as he got to the castle that night, he brought him here, kicked and punched him, but didn't give any reason.
He guessed that he beat Jing Ming when he was a child, and now Jing Ming is taking revenge.
But he has beaten himself like this, and he has been locked up for three days. All the "vengeance" that should be avenged has been avenged, and the anger to be vented is almost over. Why do you want to beat yourself?
"You can't change the shit-eating shit! You actually fell in love with my little secretary? Do you know who she is?" Jing Ming said angrily.
Jing Xuan's face was twisted into a ball in pain, "Who...who is it?"
When Lin Tongtong at the door heard these words, her heart was pounding and she clasped her hands nervously on her chest.
Jing Ming dragged Jing Xuan up, his eyes were cold, and he pushed him to the corner with all his strength, his cold voice lowered an octave, "Think about it, what did you do twenty years ago? You know why I beat you gone."
