Chapter 17 See Through

As a neighbor for many years, Hogan knows the situation of Jiang Shuyi's parents.

Originally teaching at University A, both received an olive branch from UK University C and brought Jiang Shuyi abroad.

Jiang Shangwen was squeezed out at C University at first, but soon gained a firm foothold and went up smoothly.He Yun keeps a low profile and has been teaching for several years, but due to physical reasons, she retreated to the second line.

After their divorce, Jiang Shuyi's father moved out of the residence, and lived across the street for the convenience of work.

Hogan inadvertently knew the internal cause of their relationship breakdown, and after meeting Jiang Shangwen, he was only treated as a stranger.

He Yun is as kind to Jiang Shuyi as ever.

She is a well-known writer in China, and she has been working hard. Several collections of novels were published in the UK, which did not make waves, but Hogan read them after receiving the gift and appreciated them a lot.

Coupled with her good temper and reputation, Hogan treats her like a family member.

Unexpected surprises.

The suspect is Jiang Shuyi's father's girlfriend, a British American who works in administrative work at C University and often deals with He Yun.

He has a hot temper and can't understand He Yun's slow temper.Coupled with emotional entanglements, the relationship between the two was tense, and there was a dispute over work.

During the dispute, He Yun bumped into the sharp corner of the table and immediately lost consciousness.Jiang's girlfriend calmed down and quickly called 999 for an ambulance, but it was too late.

In court the jury assessed responsibility and ruled out murder.

The case has been decided, manslaughter, sentenced to many years in prison.Thought it was over, Hogan went out in the morning and saw Jiang Shangwen having dinner with his lawyer.

Not the one at the trial.

At this time, the purpose of contacting a new lawyer is self-evident.

He didn't want to tell Jiang Shuyi, but if Jiang Shangwen wanted to appeal to protect his girlfriend, there would be a lot of procedures to go through, and Jiang Shuyi had to come forward.

I have a bottom line in my heart, so I won't be caught off guard when the time comes.

Hogan thought about it comprehensively, saying that he might be consulting others. I have inquired that he is planning to buy a real estate in the urban area, and the lawyers of both parties are in contact.

Jiang Shuyi listened quietly, said she understood, and persuaded Hogan to go to sleep.

Hogan said softly, child, if something happens, I will try my best to deal with it, you study hard.

Jiang Shuyi was silent for a long time, and said yes.

After hanging up, he immediately found out his dad's blocked number, but no one answered.Send a message to close friends, only Kevin is awake, there is an event at the publishing house, and a group of editors are partying in a bar.

The background sound was noisy, Kevin hid outside, and finally he was able to communicate smoothly.

Jiang Shu also gave a brief overview of the situation. Kevin has a strong empathy ability and scolded Jiang Shangwen angrily.

Hongan and Kevin are uncles and nephews with a huge age difference, but they have been together for a long time in their early years. Kevin understood him, and told Jiang Shuyi not to worry, saying that Uncle Hogan had a rich imagination, and it was probably because of excessive worry.Jiang Shangwen has always wanted to curry favor with you. After the accident happened, he didn't protect the woman. He only showed his face outside the court once, so he wouldn't do such an outrageous thing.

This is the reason, but just in case.

Jiang Shu also returned to the classroom.

Holding the pen between his hands, his whole body was cold, and he listened absent-mindedly.

Near the end of get out of class, I received feedback from Kevin.

[Ask, the new one is a housing transaction in a shopping street in the first district of London, I said that Uncle Hogan has a rich imagination. 】

[Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it for you at any time. 】

Jiang Shu also relaxed a little, and replied: [Thanks Kevin. 】

Only then did he concentrate and listen to Li Jian's lecture.

Li Jian is tall and thin, with a literati temperament in every gesture, and he is talking about the history of literary exchanges between China and foreign countries.

There are still a few minutes left, let them finish class early, and ordered, "Zhu Qian, after dinner, help me go to the administrative building to get a document, Li Yuanxin, come to my office."

Zhu responded with a smile, cursing in his heart, I'm so bored, I'm so bored.

Running errands every day, it doesn't matter if this shabby graduate student doesn't study!

Everyone packed up their things and left gradually.

Jiang Shuyi was the last to leave. When he passed the main seat, he caught a glimpse of Li Jian's USB drive and sent it to the office.The office door was half-closed, revealing a crack, Li Yuanxin seemed to be scolded, with a look of impatience on his face.

Jiang Shu also knocked on the door lightly, and was about to leave after giving the USB flash drive. Li Jian stopped him to chat and asked him about his studies and the progress of his thesis.

After talking about the academic matters, the subject changed, "Shu Yi, your father is Jiang Shangwen from C University?"

University C in the UK is closely connected with University A in China, and there are many cooperation projects.Li Jian has been deeply involved in the field of Chinese and English studies for many years, and has given lectures at C University several times, and has heard of Jiang Shangwen's name.

As an immigrant Chinese, it is extremely rare to be a member of the board of directors of a prestigious school.The last time I had dinner with the dean, the dean raised his mouth and said that his son was exchanged under your command.

Li Jian had no news, and was completely unaware of their tense father-son relationship, thinking of making love with each other.

Jiang Shu also frowned slightly, controlled his emotions, "Yes."

"My daughter is also in C University," Li Jian said with a smile on her face, and her tone was full of pride, "Master's and Ph.D., majored in accounting and finance, and gave a speech on behalf of foreign students at the master's graduation ceremony..."

Jiang Shu also had some impressions. He happened to accompany a friend to attend the ceremony. I remember it was a girl wearing glasses, a suit skirt and white shirt, and a bachelor's robe on the outside. She was shining with halo-like confidence.

Following Li Jian's compliments.

Li Yuanxin leaned against the wall and played with his mobile phone. Ever since Li Jian talked about his daughter, he had been complaining in his heart.

Bragging every day, it’s okay, the whole world knows that your daughter is the best.

Hearing Jiang Shu also boasted that he was about to vomit, it was just a speech at the graduation ceremony, what a big deal.

The phone was not turned off and muted, and the sound effect of the game starting up jumped out.

Li Jian finally remembered him, pointed at him and scolded him, "I only know how to play games, just watch them and then you."

Li Yuanxin was so annoyed to death, and Jiang Shuyi looked at each other, even more dissatisfied.

Jiang Shu also pretended not to see him, and after saying goodbye to Li Jian, he set off for the cafeteria.

Just as he found the dining table and sat down, his father called back. Jiang Shuyi looked at the screen with a blank expression on his face.

After it rained, the cafeteria was humid and hot, the crowd was crowded, and the smell of sweat mixed with the smell of vegetables made people sick to the stomach.

Halfway through the meal, the remaining three places at the table were occupied.

The big head put down the plate and said with a smile, "Jiang Shuyi, what a coincidence."

The fat man wore a new Gucci T-shirt, and secretly smoothed out the wrinkles on the clothes, trying to look decent and handsome.Sitting next to Jiang Shuyi, Jin Yuan glanced at the plate, "Is this enough to fill you up?"

Jiang Shu also adjusted his mood, greeted them one by one, with an unknown casualness towards Jin Yuan, "I've almost eaten, there's only so much left."

After eating supper and drinking wine together, we are our own people, and the fat man is so familiar that he is staggering.

Jiang Shuyi has a strong ability to hide his emotions, he treated them with the attitude he had in the apartment that night, and answered the conversation kindly.

The fat man chattered all over the world, and finally concentrated on Zhu Qian, "You are good everywhere, but your vision is really bad. If you choose a fine tutor, I would like to change it in Qian's dream."

Jiang Shu also did less trivial errands, mainly helping Li Jian translate manuscripts, and the intensity was within an acceptable range.

No matter how good things are, it only takes half a semester, not to mention that he is an exchange student, and Li Jianjian has limited power to squeeze.

……

Jin Yuan knocked on their dinner plates, "Shut up, I want to eat."

He lived with Jiang Shuyi for this period of time, not to mention getting to know each other better, some micro-expressions can still be understood, and he is in a bad mood.

The fat man held his chubby face and muttered: "It's numb, the son-in-law really can take care of it, take care of the sky and the earth, brother."

Jin Yuan: "What are you mumbling about?"

"Ah," said the fat man in shock, "I'm talking about the experimental design, and the report will be handed in in a few days."

Datou heard it clearly, and laughed in his heart at Fatty, who picked up such a messy nickname, calling it Prince Consort.Jin Yuan needs to know that your birthday wish is for him and Jiang Shu to fall in love with each other, to have a son with a secret message, and to have his head knocked off by you.

The more he thought about it, the more amusing he became, his head fluttered, and when he saw Jin Yuan looking over, he held back with difficulty, like a goose squawking.

Jin Yuan didn't expect much from them, his three-year roommate didn't even notice that he was in a bad state today, let alone Jiang Shuyi, whom he just met.

The dish was too spicy, Jin Yuan picked up the condiments to eat, thinking about the parkour that was interrupted in the morning.

In the morning, there was a Maogai public class. The president of the parkour club at the school sat behind him and asked if he could take a first-person parkour video to promote the club.

Jin Yuan is interested in extreme sports. The parkour club is the only club he joined in college. No matter it is windy or rainy, he can practice whenever he has time. However, he quit due to an accident in the first semester of his sophomore year.

He has a good relationship with the president, and it didn't take long to shoot the video. The equipment was ready-made, and they went to the gymnasium after class.

Building A is a stacked design with uneven ups and downs. It is a good parkour venue.Everything was ready, he jumped onto the railing from his run-up, and when he rappelled down from the elevated on the gymnasium square to the small flat floor and rolled to the ground, he was tightly protected by someone.

His uncle's bodyguard.

Jin Yuan almost forgot their existence, explaining that he was just shooting a new recruiting video.But the bodyguard was stubborn, saying that the order he received was to protect his safety, and he refused to let him continue.

Filming was interrupted.

Jin Yuan was very annoying, counting the time, the social relationship of that person should have been dug up to the [-]th generation of his ancestors.

Ask his mother, his mother said that she is still investigating and doesn't want to let go of any suspicion.

Understandable too, after all the doctor said she had PTSD.

Before hanging up the phone, his mother told him to go home tomorrow, saying that people from the two big families would come to celebrate his father's promotion, and that he would not go back on what he promised.

Before he opened his mouth, his mother said, remember to go to the old street to buy brown sugar glutinous rice cakes, Xian Xian's favorite food when she was alive, bring a copy back.

Jiangcheng's specialty brown sugar glutinous rice cake, fried until crispy on the outside, the inner layer is soft and sticky, sprinkled with brown sugar and cooked soybean powder, and added some sweet-scented osmanthus, the taste is amazing.

Ciba has a high sugar content and gets angry. When I was a child, my mother only bought one piece at a time and let them share it.

At that time, his parents lived in two places all the year round due to work, and each of the twins took care of the other. They rarely get together during the holidays, and Jin Yuan would always let Jin Xian.

It's a pity that no matter how many glutinous rice cakes you buy now, there is no one to give up.

The dishes he ordered were not to his taste, and the cafeteria was crowded and hot, so Jin Yuan ate some casually and put down his chopsticks.

Fatty and Datou ate, chatting excitedly with Jiang Shu.

Jin Yuan disliked the two of them for their lack of vision, and felt that Jiang Shuyi's endurance was really strong. He was obviously in a bad mood, and he still kept his face unchanged after accepting such nonsense bombarded for so long.

I thought to myself, it might be because the fat man fell into the pit, and the stored guilt value was not used up.

Putting his hands on the back of the chair, he asked lazily, "Have you finished eating? Let's go."

The tray platform was packed with people waiting outside.The fat man asked Jin Yuan for a report on the design of the experiment, and the big-headed ghost asked him to talk about optical homework.

Jin Yuan shook the phone, "I recorded it, the school will be the first to clean you up after checking for academic misconduct."

The fat man giggled, squeezed into the crowd at the gap, and left him and Jiang Shuyi on the outside.

Jiang Shu also held the dinner plate with one hand, lowered his eyes, and wiped the oil stains on the edge of his thumb with a wet towel.Jin Yuan turned his head to look at him, smiling consistently, "Why, are you in a bad mood?"

Jiang Shu also didn't answer.

Jin Yuan approached, with an attitude of breaking the casserole and asking the end, and whispered, "What are you sad about, huh?"

Jiang Shu also held the wet towel in his palm and twisted his fingers involuntarily.

Annoyed, I want to smoke.

He raised his eyes, looked at Jin Yuan's deep pupils, and asked back after a while, "What about you, what are you sad about?"

The smile on Jin Yuan's face stagnated for a moment.

He staggered Jiang Shuyi's eyes and looked at the window without answering.

After putting down the dinner plate, several people walked out of the cafeteria side by side.

The fat man talked about the gift for Zhu Qian's anniversary, and the big head gave him advice, leaving the two of them to go to the mall.

"Let's go," the fat man raised his eyebrows at Jin Yuan, with a humble expression, "Yuan, send out the experimental design report early, and bring you fried snails tonight."

Jin Yuan just laughed, "Call me Dad."

The fat man had no psychological pressure, and he said smoothly, "Father, please send me the rest of the courses for reference."

The tone was so contrived that it made people's skin crawl, and the big head was about to die of laughter, so he asked Jiang Shuyi what he wanted to eat, and brought them back together when the time came.

"His taste is light, and there is a fish maw chicken in the back street that tastes really good." The fat man beamed with joy, and patted Jiang Shuyi on the shoulder, "Don't refuse, I must let you try it."

"I have an appointment with Mr. Cheng at night." After contacting them a few times, I can clearly feel the sincerity and enthusiasm of the two of them. Jiang Shuyi's tone is also sincere, "Thank you, I will try next time."

In a blink of an eye, only he and Jin Yuan were left.Face to face, the line of sight intersects from time to time.

Jiang Shu also let go of his calm expression and remained silent.Jin Yuan leaned his back against the pillar and suppressed his smile.

They all felt the astonishment and discomfort of being seen through, and the atmosphere was indescribably stagnant.

It was meal time, and the outsiders in the cafeteria dispersed and then gathered, gathered and dispersed.

Sunlight poured down from the thick clouds and projected onto the glass exterior wall, rippling and swaying in circles like sparkling light.

One went to the laboratory, the other to the Liberal Arts College, they passed the glass ripples, passed the waterfall-like wisteria flower trellis, and parted ways at the crossroads.

In the evening, I had to drop off the plane, Jin Yuan broke the silence, "If it rains in the evening, I will pick you up."

Then he turned around, leaving only his back behind.

Jiang Shu also looked at him, seeing the tough cropped cut and the neat tattoo on the back of his neck.
