Zhuang Baihua was stunned after hearing what Chi Yue said. He had invited Chi Yue to live with him several times before, but Chi Yue refused.
And it seems there is a very important reason.
Zhuang Baihua didn't dare to ask too much, and even though he felt a little uncomfortable, he didn't force him.
But today he took the initiative to ask to move in, which was really unusual.
But today was an abnormal day in itself. Zhuang Baihua thought that Chi Yue had just learned about her life experience and was confused at the time. It was natural for her to seek help from her elders.
So he smiled and said to Chi Yue: "Okay, there are plenty of rooms, it will be convenient for me to take care of you."
Chi Yue whispered, "I don't want you to take care of me."
He was a little shy and seemed nervous, his lips were straight and there was a gleam in his eyes.
Zhuang Baihua patted his shoulder lightly and said, "Okay, you are a big kid now and you don't need anyone to take care of you. Just keep me company. I am tired today too."
Chi Yue then took a step forward, intending to ask Zhuang Baihua to walk faster.
Zhuang Baihua smiled and got into the car with Chi Yue, and asked the driver to drive home directly.
The original owner had a lot of properties, and Zhuang Baihua had always lived in an apartment in the city center, which was close to the company and quite convenient.
Not far away is Zhuang Baihua’s favorite park. When he has time, he will go there for morning exercises and mingle with the people.
Zhuang Baihua likes this apartment very much and has gotten used to it and doesn't want to move.
It was almost dawn. After a whole day of hard work, Zhuang Baihua was a little tired. The driver quickly drove the car to the bottom of the apartment building. Zhuang Baihua led Chi Yue out of the car and went upstairs through the elevator.
Chi Yue became a little restrained from the moment she got in the car. She didn't say a word. After getting out of the car, she looked up at the apartment building with a complicated expression.
Zhuang Baihua thought he was nervous and comforted him: "Just think of it as going home."
The elevator went directly into the house. Two people came out of the elevator. Zhuang Baihua pushed open the door of the entrance hall, but Chi Yue did not follow him.
Zhuang Baihua turned his head and looked at Chi Yue strangely, and found that his expression was not right.
Chi Yue's face was gloomy and stern. His pair of black eyes stared straight into the room from his gaze, his expression gloomy and not very happy.
What happened? Did he see something? Zhuang Baihua searched the entire apartment the first thing he did when he arrived here. There was nothing strange, so there was nothing to worry about.
Could it be that Chi Yue still had some resistance to him? It was Chi Yue himself who suggested coming here.
The two of them wasted too long at the entrance. Chi Yue realized her impoliteness and was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses and said, "Maybe I'm too sleepy."
Zhuang Baihua said gently: "Then come in and have a rest."
Only then did Chi Yue follow Zhuang Baihua into the house.
After entering the house, Chi Yue felt a little embarrassed and said, "This is my first time coming to your house, and I didn't bring any gifts."
Zhuang Baihua smiled: "You yourself are a big gift."
Chi Yue was stunned when he heard this and looked at Zhuang Baihua with wide eyes.
Zhuang Baihua had a faint smile on his lips and his eyes were gentle. The spring breeze and flowing water were hidden in his smile, so soft that it made people's heart beat fast.
He looked at his apartment and smiled. “You’re the first guest here.”
He had been living here alone since he traveled through time. Although he had a housekeeper and a secretary to take care of his housework, this place always made him feel a little weird.
He lived here and sometimes felt that this place still belonged to the original owner. It was not until Chi Yue came today that he realized that this was his home.
As a guest, Chi Yue came here and gave this apartment the meaning of "home".
Chi Yue looked at Zhuang Baihua's smile and couldn't take his eyes off it. Zhuang Baihua invited him in, asked him to sit on the sofa, and poured him some juice.
"Do you want to eat anything else?" Zhuang Baihua asked.
Chi Yue shook her head.
Mrs. Luo prepared a simple meal for them in the hospital just now. Both of them ate a little and are not hungry now.
"Then take a shower and go to bed early. If you have anything to say, we'll talk tomorrow."
Chi Yue nodded.
Zhuang Baihua asked Chi Yue to walk around while he went to get some clothes to change into. Who knew that Chi Yue would follow Zhuang Baihua wherever he went.
Zhuang Baihua could only drag his little tail and walked through several rooms, telling him that this was the kitchen, this was the study, this was the bedroom, and finally came to the bedroom.
Chi Yue blinked and looked around the bedroom curiously.
The original owner's flashy and luxurious decorations had long been removed by Zhuang Baihua. Now his bedroom was simple and clear, without any clutter, neat and tidy, just like him.
Zhuang Baihua walked from the bedroom to the cloakroom, took out a new set of pajamas and underwear, and handed them to Chi Yue: "My size should be suitable for you." He looked at Chi Yue with a smile, "It's just that mine are all solid colors, no cute patterns."
Chi Yue: “…”
It turns out that he had seen all the little bear underwear before.
Chi Yue's ears turned red. He took the clothes. Zhuang Baihua asked him to take a shower first. He lowered his head and went into the bathroom outside. Zhuang Baihua laughed.
While Chi Yue was taking a shower, Zhuang Baihua got him new bedding, tidied up the guest room, and made it comfortable.
Chi Yue came out after taking a shower, wearing Zhuang Baihua's pajamas. The length was just right, but it was light and a little empty.
Chi Yue was originally very fair, and the heat gave her a pinkish hue, making her look younger than her actual age. Zhuang Baihua commented, "She needs to gain some weight."
Chi Yue smiled: "Now all I eat is growth."
Zhuang Baihua did feel that Chi Yue seemed taller than before, so he patted his head and said, "You'll be taller than me." He took Chi Yue to the guest room, "I've made the bed, you can sleep here tonight."
Chi Yue nodded, and Zhuang Baihua went to wash himself.
It was too late today, and Zhuang Baihua had no time to take a bath. He went to the bathroom in his bedroom to rinse and then walked out.
Then he found Chi Yue standing in his bedroom.
Zhuang Baihua was startled. Didn’t he just let him sleep in the guest room? Why did he come here again
Zhuang Baihua quickly asked: "Is there anything you are not used to?"
Chi Yue said nothing, just shook her head.
Zhuang Baihua was very surprised: "Then go to bed early, it's almost dawn."
Chi Yue stared at Zhuang Baihua with his dark eyes for a long time before he turned around mechanically, walked out of the master bedroom and went to the guest room.
Chi Yue had a thin figure and walked silently, floating back and forth like a wandering soul, which made Zhuang Baihua feel uneasy.
He rubbed his arms, shook off those thoughts, and lay down on the bed to sleep.
Being exhausted after staying up all night, Zhuang Baihua slept very soundly and did not wake up until almost noon the next day.
He thought Chi Yue was a young person who was still staying in bed. However, when he came out of the bedroom and into the living room, he found Chi Yue sitting on the sofa, hugging her legs, and looking straight at the bedroom.
Zhuang Baihua bumped into him head on and was startled.
"You woke up so early?" Zhuang Baihua asked.
Chi Yue's face was a little gloomy again. He did not answer Zhuang Baihua's question, but said: "There is nothing in your refrigerator."
Zhuang Baihua thought he woke up from hunger, and said apologetically: "I usually eat at the company, or when the housekeeping brings food, I don't cook very often."
It was the same when he was the district director. Anyway, he would eat well and his family would not be hungry, so they basically ate in the company cafeteria.
Chi Yue nodded to show that she understood, and said, "I wanted to cook, but I didn't have the ingredients."
Zhuang Baihua said curiously: "You can cook too." This is rare for a student.
Zhuang Baihua thought again and realized that children from poor families have to grow up early, and Chi Yue's adoptive parents have always been lazy and gluttonous, so it seems reasonable that Chi Yue can cook.
He smiled and said, "Next time, buy some materials and see you show off."
Chi Yue nodded obediently.
Chi Yue has been very silent since he moved in, and he doesn't talk much. Zhuang Baihua thought he was still not used to it, so he didn't force him to talk or do anything else, and let him move freely in the house as he pleased.
Zhuang Baihua called to order food, but unexpectedly Secretary Chen came personally and delivered a customized meal box from a high-end restaurant.
Zhuang Baihua said casually: "Just find someone to deliver it to me."
Secretary Chen glared at Chi Yue quietly and said, "You were out all night yesterday to deal with things. I was quite worried."
When he heard that Mr. Zhuang had brought Chi Yue home, he immediately went to check on the situation.
The evil concubine has broken into the bedroom, and as the chief eunuch of the palace, he must keep an eye on it for the emperor.
Secretary Chen took the opportunity to check around while going to the kitchen and found that Chi Yue was living in the guest room, so he felt relieved.
Very good, there was no uterine bleeding phenomenon.
Zhuang Baihua put food boxes on the table and invited Chi Yue to come and eat.
After a busy night yesterday, we slept until noon and were both hungry. The food in the meal box was delicate and refreshing, with a light taste that was good for the stomach.
Chi Yue ate a shrimp roll and found it delicious, so she picked up another one and passed it to Zhuang Baihua's mouth. Zhuang Baihua opened his mouth naturally and ate the food according to Chi Yue's fingers.
"Delicious." Zhuang Baihua commented.
Chi Yue licked her fingertips and said, "It's delicious."
Secretary Chen who was passing by: “…” Blind.
The enchanting concubine is worthy of being the enchanting concubine, with so many scenes.
After lunch, Secretary Chen cleaned up the mess for the president and prepared to leave.
He stood at the door, hesitant to speak.
Zhuang Baihua was puzzled. Chen Wang was usually very decisive. What happened today? "Just tell me what you want to say."
Secretary Chen: "Mr. Zhuang, remember to come tomorrow!"
Zhuang Baihua: “?”
Secretary Chen: "I mean, remember to go to the company tomorrow."
Zhuang Baihua looked at him strangely and said, "I will go."
After making sure that the evil concubine would not bring harm to the country, Chen Wang left with peace of mind.
In the afternoon, Zhuang Baihua was handling official business in the study. Chi Yue moved a chair and sat next to him, watching the phone quietly.
Chi Yue kept sticking to him, and the distance between them was no more than one meter. Even in the toilet, Chi Yue stayed outside. Zhuang Baihua thought he lacked a sense of security, so he let him go.
There was no news from Luo Zhenduo yet, so Zhuang Baihua decided not to mention the Luo family's affairs for the time being and let Chi Yue think it over carefully.
No matter what decision Chi Yue makes in the end, Zhuang Baihua will support him.
Zhuang Baihua was looking at the computer, Chi Yue was looking at the laptop, the two of them were sitting in the same room, not talking, the atmosphere was warm and peaceful.
At the beginning, Zhuang Baihua felt that Chi Yue was like a kitten, a little aloof and a little arrogant. Later, he found that he could act like a spoiled child. Now Zhuang Baihua thinks he is like a puppy.
Dependent and clingy... and cute.
Chi Yue sat obediently on the chair and secretly took pictures of the man next to her with her camera.
Zhuang Baihua lowered his head and focused on his work. People say that serious men are the most attractive, and this is fully reflected in Zhuang Baihua.
Chi Yue wished she could turn into the file in his hand, be stared at by those bright eyes, and quietly approach those elegant and gentle thin lips.
Chi Yue took a photo of Zhuang Baihua in a state of near panic, thinking that it would at least be a souvenir.
The two stayed like this for a while. After dinner in the evening, Chi Yue accompanied Zhuang Baihua to watch TV. Zhuang Baihua said helplessly: "You don't have to accompany me, go and do your own thing."
Zhuang Baihua asked Chi Yue to come and live with him, without thinking of hiring a little follower.
Chi Yue shook her head and insisted on following Zhuang Baihua no matter what.
Zhuang Baihua had no choice but to obey him.
When it was time to go to bed at night, Zhuang Baihua said to Chi Yue: "I'm going to the company tomorrow, what about you?"
Chi Yue said, "I'll go too."
Zhuang Baihua thought, forget it, Luo Zhenduo probably won't be that quick, once he gets to the company, Chi Yue won't stick to him so much.
Zhuang Baihua didn't understand why Chi Yue, who had refused to come before, became such a follower after she came.
Zhuang Baihua said good night to Xiaowei and then went to bed.
Zhuang Baihua slept uneasily that night. He was worried about something and felt like he was being watched by something.
It felt like a snake was wriggling on my skin, cold and sticky, and very uncomfortable.
Zhuang Baihua woke up from his sleep in a daze, opened his eyes, and dimly saw a tall and thin black figure standing beside the bed.
The black shadow stood there, motionless, only a pair of eyes still had a little light, staring straight at Zhuang Baihua lying on the bed.
Zhuang Baihua: “…”
