C40 We Don't Seem to Know Each Other
Jian Jia looked at him curiously, but the sunlight was blinding and she could not see clearly.
"Who are you?" She walked a few steps forward and walked out of the grape stand.
The hair in front of the man's forehead blocked his eyes, making people unable to see the emotions in his eyes.
"I'm asking you a question. Is something the matter?" Jian Jia frowned and looked at him, her eyes full of vigilance.
Zhai Yaotian's Adam's apple moved. He nervously clenched his fist and took it out of his pocket.
She really didn't know him anymore.
"I... my name is Zhai Yaotian." His voice was trembling.
Could they get to know each other again?
He came with the intention of compensation. She had never known him before.
Jian Jia heard this name for a second and felt a little familiar.
But in the blink of an eye, she remembered where she had heard it before.
"Oh... you are the man I love so much?" Jian Jia raised her hand and pointed at him. The emotions in her eyes were difficult to describe.
"I used to like your taste? Your hair is so long and your beard is not shaved yet. Your dark circles are so heavy. ... What do I like about you?!" Jian Jia racked her brains but could not figure it out.
Could it be that she liked this man's name? Zhai Yaotian?
But this name was also ordinary. What was there to like?
Jian Jia's reaction made Zhai Yaotian's heart, which had not been beating well for a long time, ache.
He tried to calm himself down and said in a deep voice, "Sorry, I came in a hurry. I just got off the plane... I didn't have time to clean up..."
He had indeed just gotten off the plane when he rushed straight towards them.
It took 12 hours to fly from South City to Paris.
Before boarding the plane, Zhai Yaotian called Zhang Binn and asked him to find out where Jian Jia lived in Paris.
Zhang Binn thought it would be difficult, but when he remembered Cheng Yu was also participating in the competition, he had some information to check.
He immediately found out about the villa that was full of vines.
"Can we... talk about it?" Zhai Yaotian asked carefully when he saw Jian Jia did not speak.
He did not blink. He looked at the woman in the room without moving. He was afraid that she would disappear in the blink of an eye.
Zhai Yaotian didn't want to know how a woman who had announced her death could appear in front of him.
The process wasn't important. The result was the most important, wasn't it?
"I don't think we know each other." Jian Jia did not treat Zhai Yaotian like Zhang Binn did.
For some reason, she did not like this man in front of her.
Saying one more word to him made her feel depressed.
"Regardless of whether I knew you in the past or not, I don't know you now, and I don't want to know you in the future. You can leave now, I won't see you off." Jian Jia said plainly. Her gaze did not want to linger on him for even a moment. She turned around and went back to the house.
"Jia Jia -" Zhai Yaotian could not stay calm any longer.
His hands were tightly clasped on the fence, looking like he was going to come in.
Jian Jia immediately called the maid in the room and stared at Zhai Yaotian with a face full of caution.
"If you continue like this, I will call the police and say that you broke into the private residence!" Her voice was cold.
The maid ran over in a hurry. She used French to signal Zhai Yaotian to leave quickly.
Jian Jia ignored her and went in. She pulled the curtains tightly in front of the French window.
When she returned to the room, her eyelids kept twitching. It was as if something bad was about to happen.
Her head was also aching, as if something was about to break out of the cocoon.
It seemed quiet downstairs. The housekeeper brought a cup of hot water up and told Jian Jia not to be afraid.
Jian Jia drank the water and lay on the bed to rest.
It seemed that she woke up too early in the morning, but it also seemed like the shock just now made her a little tired. She originally planned to lie down and rest with her eyes closed, but she immediately fell asleep.
At noon, Cheng Yu, who had finished his business outside, finally came back. The nanny immediately reported what had happened in the morning to him.
Cheng Yu frowned and immediately went upstairs to see Jian Jia's reaction.
But just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard a scream coming from inside the house.
"Ah! Don't -"
