Mo Shiqian stared at her for a long time, his lips pursed tightly.
"very tired?"
She nodded without thinking, "I want to sleep."
He said calmly, "Then I will carry you up."
"No need, I can do it myself..."
Before she could even utter the word "go", she was already picked up.
Chi Huan looked at his side face, but finally said nothing and let him carry her into the apartment building.
He couldn't move, so she pressed the elevator button.
After entering the enclosed space, she rested her head on his shoulder.
Maybe it's because I'm tired.
I also want to get close.
Maybe it was because of their posture that they couldn't see each other's expressions.
Or maybe all of these are possible.
When she opened the door, she reached out and pressed the code.
The man carried her to the bedroom and put her down. When she went to get a change of clothes, he had already put the water for her and closed the curtains.
Chi Huan hugged his pajamas and said to him, "Go to work."
"I won't leave until you fall asleep."
When he said this, Chi Huan didn't say much. He carried his clothes and went in to take a simple shower and then wash up.
By the time she came out from the shower, he had cooked a bowl of noodles for her, with beautiful poached eggs on top. Milk was placed next to the noodles as usual, "Eat before you go to bed."
She pursed her lips and looked at him, "Why don't you cook a bowl yourself?" He looked at her and smiled faintly, "I'll buy some food on the way later."
Chi Huan picked up the chopsticks and put them down again, "Wait a moment."
She got up and went to the cloakroom, took a set of men's clothes and returned, "You can take a shower before going to work. My place should be more convenient than your company."
Mo Shiqian looked at the clothes in her hands.
It turned out that she had even prepared his clothes.
Even though she had a grudge against her, she still couldn't help but be nice to him.
The man took the clothes, got up and went to the bathroom.
Chi Huan looked at his back, picked up the chopsticks and lowered his head to eat the noodles.
After just a few bites, I noticed that my long hair was always hanging down—
She was looking for a hair tie to tie up her hair, and after looking at her empty wrist, she remembered that she had left it on the sink, so she immediately stood up and walked quickly towards the bathroom.
While pushing the door open, he said, "Mo Shiqian, wait a minute, I'll get something..."
She originally wanted to take out the hair tie before he changed clothes, of course, because... after all, their relationship did not need to be too clear-cut.
So Chi Huan didn't knock on the door in advance.
However, she only had time to catch a glimpse of the man seemingly unbuttoning the innermost shirt and taking off half of it, but he put it back on as quickly as she broke in.
He moved very quickly, or rather, too quickly.
It was as if he was afraid that she would see something. To be precise, he was afraid that she would see something on him.
He even frowned unconsciously, although he soon relaxed.
Mo Shiqian saw her standing at the door with no intention of coming in, so he walked over and opened the door, lowered his head and said warmly to her, "What do you want to come in to get?"
Chi Huan curled his fingers and replied slowly, "I want to tie my hair and eat noodles..."
He glanced at her seaweed-like long hair, turned around and picked up the black hair tie on the sink, and finally picked up the gold watch next to it and handed it to her.
She didn't answer and watched his movements.
He handed her something with one hand, and the other hand rested on his waist as if unintentionally, holding up the unbuttoned shirt.
It seems very casual.
If she hadn't just seen him put his half-taken-off clothes back on reflexively, she might not even have noticed.
Normally, if she accidentally encountered him changing clothes or being naked, how could he put his clothes back on subconsciously before he could tease her. She didn't even reach out to take it.
"Huanhuan?"
"Mo Shiqian."
"Um?"
She took a deep breath and asked, "How did you get those marks on Beth's body?"
The man frowned and quickly replied, "She probably did it herself."
perhaps
They spent hours together and didn't he know what she had done
And... what is there in him that he doesn't want her to see
For a few moments, she wanted to directly lift off his shirt to make sure there were no ambiguous traces of love affairs on his body.
The thought of what might be there was a lump in her throat.
I can’t even ask.
She even thought that if he had told her directly from the beginning that he was unconscious due to drug control and had an affair with Beth that shouldn't have happened...
Chi Huan lowered his head, took the hair tie and watch, took two steps back, and held the two things in his hands tightly.
He went back to where he was eating noodles and sat down, picking up his chopsticks again and eating slowly.
In the bathroom.
Mo Shiqian closed the door, locked it, and then took off his shirt.
Under the bright light, the man's standard inverted triangle male model figure with clear lines was clearly reflected in the mirror.
However, the darker skin is covered with marks of varying shades.
… …
Chi Huan originally thought he would take a shower, but he didn't hear the sound of water, and he only had time to change his clothes.
It wasn't until she finished eating her noodles, drank milk, brushed her teeth, washed herself and lay down on bed that he touched her head and turned off the light for her, "I'm going to work."
"are not you sleepy?"
The man smiled lightly on his thin lips, "I'll come back early to go to bed after my work."
"Bye then."
Mo Shiqian bent down and kissed her on the cheek, "See you in the evening."
She watched the man's figure go out.
The door opened and closed, and the light in the bedroom was completely dimmed.
Chi Huan's face rested on the soft pillow, and another layer of sourness filled his heart.
Whenever it was related to himself, I never saw him taking a break or delaying work.
But even if it was trivial and insignificant things related to her, he would do it for her one by one.
… …
When Chi Huan woke up, he found that he had a fever.
When people are deeply exhausted physically and mentally, they either suffer from insomnia or fall into a deep sleep and subconsciously refuse to wake up.
When she opened her eyes, it was around five o'clock in the evening and almost six o'clock in the evening.
It's not completely dark yet, but it's about to be covered by night.
The room with the curtains drawn was even more dim.
Lying on the quilt, she felt that her whole brain was groggy, her body was so hot that heat could escape, and her nose was blocked.
In addition to being uncomfortable, there is an even more uncomfortable emptiness.
The apartment was so quiet.
No sound, as if abandoned by the whole world.
She glanced at the alarm clock beside her bed and saw vaguely that the time on it was 5:46 pm.
Hasn't he come back yet
No... He hasn't come yet
Even under normal circumstances, waking up after a long sleep and finding that the surroundings are almost falling into darkness will make people feel abnormally panicked.
What's more, you have a cold. A cold is not a serious illness, but once you get sick, your body and mind will become extremely fragile.
She missed Mo Shiqian especially now and wanted him to accompany her.
