Fu Shitian's eyes lit up, and he quickly replied, "It's been October."
Shi Yi pursed his lips, walked to the opposite side of her and squatted down, picked up the paper cutter and voucher page on the small table, "Do you want to finish everything tonight?"
If Fu Shitian still can't understand Shi Yi's meaning, he would be a fool.
"Shi Yi, no need, you should go to bed soon, I will finish in a while. Senior gave me a set of work done by a classmate, I just need to copy it."
Shi Yi acted as if he didn't hear it, "Then I'll post the voucher and you copy the account book."
Fu Shitian moved her lips, wanting to persuade him again, but looking at Shi Yi's cold face, she felt a little guilty and a little sweet. She compromised, took the waste paper on the small table to make a step, and invited Shi Yi: "Then...then you sit here, your legs are sore from squatting."
Shi Yi was not polite, he stood up and walked to her side. They sat side by side facing the small table, bowing their heads to do their homework.
The hissing sound of paper cutting and the rustling sound of writing came and went in the quiet space. Fu Shitian copied two lines of the diary and then glanced at Shi Yi, feeling like she wanted to say something. She peeked again, and Shi Yi turned his head and caught her red-handed.
Fu Shitian smiled innocently in panic.
Shi Yi looked away and asked, "Are you not doing it in the dormitory because you're afraid of disturbing others?"
"Well, the sound of tearing the voucher is a bit loud."
"Helping others doesn't mean you have to make things difficult for yourself."
Fu Shitian realized it later and seemed to understand what Shi Yi was concerned about. "Shi Yi, do you think I shouldn't agree to my senior's request?" she asked gently.
"I don't think it's important." Shi Yi's expression was hidden in her falling hair.
Sure enough, this is it. Fu Shitian stammered and explained: "I thought about refusing, but... Senior Sister has always been very nice to me and took good care of me, I..."
Shi Yi asked calmly, "In your opinion, is there anyone who treats you badly?"
Fu Shitian opened her lips and could not speak. Shi Yi ignored her and pressed his thin lips into a line.
Fu Shitian held the pen, looked at her for several seconds, lowered his head, held back his blush, and whispered: "But..."
"You are the best to me."
Shi Yi paused while cutting paper, and glanced at Fu Shitian from the corner of his eye. Fu Shitian's little ears exposed to the air were red, and his little face was so low that it was almost buried in the account book.
Shi Yi's unhappiness suddenly dissipated a lot.
"I'm not nice to you." She continued her hand movements and replied without any emotion.
Fu Shitian felt as if he had been pardoned. His eyes were filled with joy and he looked at her with a smile on his lips.
Shi Yi didn't look at her. He was silent for two seconds before continuing, "Knowing how to properly reject others is also an important survival skill."
Fu Shitian responded obediently: "I understand. I will be bolder next time."
It's not that she didn't realize this problem. But every time she faced the other person's sincere face, she felt embarrassed. She was always afraid that refusing would embarrass the other person and make the other person have a bad impression of her.
Shi Yi snorted vaguely, not making any comment, but his expression brightened up.
Time flows quietly between the torn vouchers and the written numbers. When all the accounting vouchers are posted in the order of receipt, payment and transfer numbers, the clock hand has pointed to two o'clock.
Fu Shitian saw Shi Yi straighten his back, tilt his head back and relax his neck, with a slightly tired look on his face. He felt both distressed and embarrassed.
"Shi Yi, it's almost done. I can handle the rest myself. You go to sleep first." She urged again.
Shi Yi flipped through the remaining detailed accounts and remained unmoved. "I'll read out the numbers and you write them down. It's not easy to copy the wrong lines."
Fu Shitian hesitated.
Shi Yi paused on the number in the account book, "Consider it as the tuition for you teaching me how to ride a bicycle the other day."
Fu Shitian retorted in a low voice: "Then can I not accept it?"
"Too little?"
Fu Shitian quickly shook his head: "No, no."
"Then take it."
Fu Shitian couldn't win the argument with her, so he gave up and said, "Okay, but I have a condition."
You still dare to put forward conditions
Fu Shitian's eyes were filled with shyness, and he said softly, "Then you have to pay the tuition and continue your lessons. You haven't learned it yet."
Shi Yi was stunned for a moment, and didn't say yes or no, "It's been so long, it can be done now."
Her tone was cold, but the corners of her lips were raised, "November 5th, pay 138..."
Fu Shitian noticed it and took it as her tacit consent. She curled her lips, admitted her mistake, and buried her head in writing.
Shi Yi's voice was soft, clear and pleasant, almost a kind of enjoyment. Fu Shitian's mind always wandered a little while listening to it. His heart felt soft and itchy, and he even wanted to secretly record it.
Too much, abnormal. She cursed herself and concentrated.
At 2:30, the manual accounting of this huge project was finally completed ahead of schedule. Fu Shitian breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked Shi Yi, "I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble. Go and have a rest."
As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach growled. Fu Shitian was caught off guard.
Shi Yi obviously heard it, and his eyes fell on Fu Shitian's lower abdomen. Fu Shitian's blood rushed to his face, and he lowered his head and pretended nothing happened as he folded the small table.
I don't want to see anyone anymore.
"Is there any food in the dormitory?" Shi Yi asked.
"It's okay. I won't be hungry when I fall asleep." Fu Shitian picked up the small table and answered softly.
Shi Yi guessed that she had something to eat but was afraid of disturbing her roommates. "Can you cook noodles?"
Fu Shitian nodded, and Shi Yi said, "I'm hungry too. Do you want to go to my house? It's a five-minute drive from the school."
Fu Shitian was stunned, and Shi Yi added: "I will take you back before class tomorrow morning."
That's not the question. Shi Yi's home was too tempting to her. She wanted to set foot there even in her dreams. However, Fu Shitian was worried: "Will it be too disturbing?"
"I live here alone."
Fu Shitian hesitated, and Shi Yi hit the nail on the head: "Don't you want to go?"
Fu Shitian shook her head quickly, and Shi Yi took the small table from her hand and told her: "Then go get your schoolbag and bring your books for tomorrow morning."
Fu Shitian felt that before she could react, she had already followed Shi Yi into the elevator and went down to the first floor. As if in a dream, she stood at the elevator entrance on the first floor and looked at Shi Yi beside her.
Shi Yi lowered his eyes and was taking out his campus card from the side pocket of his schoolbag.
Fu Shitian remembered something and without worrying about whether the dormitory manager would question him, he quickly ran to the door before Shi Yi to swipe the card, and then held the door open and waited for Shi Yi.
Shi Yi paused, stared at Fu Shitian's little face for a few seconds, and put the campus card back.
"Aren't you afraid of being deducted points for coming back late?" Shi Yi asked after successfully leaving the dormitory building.
Fu Shitian has always been a good student who follows the rules. This was the first time he left the dormitory in the middle of the night. For some reason he felt a sense of excitement like a trapped bird out of a cage.
"Don't be afraid, I get a bigger share." She smiled.
The curve of Shi Yi's lips deepened.
But Fu Shitian confessed: "But I was just afraid that the aunt might ask me where I was going and what I was doing." Fortunately, the aunt just glanced at them as if she was used to it and continued to sleep.
"Auntie doesn't care about these things." Shi Yi explained.
Fu Shitian was curious: "Have you ever come out at this time before?"
"No, it's my first time too."
"Then how do you know Auntie doesn't care?"
"Guess."
Fu Shitian was stunned for a moment, then looked at Shi Yi's confident expression, and suddenly couldn't help laughing. "What..."
Shi Yi let her laugh without any explanation and took Fu Shitian to the dormitory building of the Overseas Education College.
At three o'clock in the morning, Shenda University was completely silent. Fu Shitian seemed to hear how the breeze swayed the leaves, and how her footsteps echoed with Shi Yi's footsteps in the world. It was as if the whole world had fallen asleep, and only she and Shi Yi were still awake.
The world belongs to just the two of them.
"Do you cook often at home?" Shi Yi asked as if he was chatting.
Left foot, right foot, left foot, Fu Shitian quietly adjusted the order of kicking to the same as Shi Yi. "Well, I... my parents are busy at work, so when they are on vacation, I usually cook all three meals."
“Will it be hard?”
Fu Shitian smiled and said, "It's actually not bad."
That means it is still a bit hard. Shi Yi thought about it.
The wind blew with a gust of coolness, and Fu Shitian felt a little cold. She secretly glanced at Shi Yi's cool and beautiful profile, and her heart was beating fast. At this moment, Shi Yi's arm was only ten centimeters away from her, and she wanted to use an excuse to hold his arm.
She convinced herself that it was nothing, it was normal among girls, and Jian Luhe often held Shi Yi's arm like this.
She moved her arms, ready to touch Shi Yi's warmth with just one last push.
Shi Yi tilted his head slightly, as if he was looking over. Fu Shitian panicked, his courage faded, and his arms quickly pressed against his trouser legs.
Shi Yi didn't notice and just said without finishing the sentence: "I can make tomato and egg noodles. Are you afraid that it will be unpalatable?"
Fu Shitian was still flustered and answered absentmindedly: "I'm not picky about food."
Shi Yi nodded and made a decision.
The dormitory building of the Overseas Education College was not far away, and they arrived there quickly. Shi Yi's car was parked in the parking lot outside, and Fu Shitian realized that many of the cars in this area were students' cars.
Is it true that the world that Shi Yi sees is often different from his own? Fu Shitian didn't dare to think too deeply.
It was her second time riding in Shi Yi’s car. She was still reserved and still didn’t dare to relax too much.
Shi Yi said it was a five-minute drive, and it really was. In the blink of an eye, the car had already entered the gate of the magnificently designed community.
After parking the car in the parking lot, Shi Yi took her to the elevator and went straight to the 16th floor. After entering the password and opening the door, the entrance sensor light automatically lit up, and Shi Yi called her, "Come in."
Although Shi Yi said that she didn't need to change her shoes because an aunt would come to clean the house every weekend, Fu Shitian still changed her shoes politely. She followed Shi Yi into the living room, not daring to look around or sit anywhere else.
Shi Yi put down her schoolbag and said with a smile, "Don't be so nervous, be more casual." She took a cup of warm water and gave it to her, "This is the only hot water in the house, drink some first to warm yourself up."
Fu Shitian took it with both hands, and the warmth spread from her palms to her whole body. She relaxed a little and looked around the house. The house was newly decorated in a comfortable Nordic wood style.
"Don't you live here often?" The placement of the objects showed no signs of regular use.
"Well, the house has just been handed over for two years, and I only come here occasionally on weekends." Shi Yi tied up her long hair, pushed open the sliding door of the kitchen, put on an apron, and looked like she was going to cook herself.
Fu Shitian was flattered and quickly stood by the door and said, "Let me do it."
Shi Yi raised an eyebrow: "Didn't you say you're not picky about food?"
The apron was pure grey, with an ugly yet cute little yellow duck printed on it. It was so cute that Shi Yi's usual intimidating coldness was somewhat reduced.
Fu Shitian's heart was moved, and he said softly, "I want you to taste my cooking skills."
Shi Yi was stunned for a moment, then turned back to wash the tomatoes: "Next time." His tone softened.
Fu Shitian lowered his eyes, afraid that he could no longer hide the joy in his eyes.
She didn't leave, but stood by the door and watched Shi Yi cooking. At first, she just found it pleasing to the eye.
Later, it slowly turned into - thrilling.
Shi Yi's nimble hands turned out to be unusually clumsy when picking up a knife. She almost cut her hand twice while cutting a tomato.
Fu Shitian felt that what she was cutting was not the tomato, but her own tense nerves.
After the fire was turned on and the oil was poured, the hot oil splashed and crackled. Shi Yi held the shovel and wanted to go closer but didn't dare to. Fu Shitian's thrilling experience turned into - he had to hold back his laughter until the corners of his mouth turned sore.
Shi Yi caught sight of her out of the corner of his eye, turned his head and stared at her expressionlessly.
Fu Shitian couldn't hide her smile anymore. She smiled brightly, walked to Shi Yi with a gentle look, reached out to take the spatula in her hand, and said considerately, "Let me fry the eggs."
Shi Yi wanted to hold on, but after taking another look at the "raging" hot oil in the pot, he finally released his grip.
Fu Shitian took the spatula but didn't pour the eggs into the pot immediately. "Do you eat onions?"
Shi Yi nodded and took out the onion from the refrigerator. Fu Shitian turned off the fire, cut half an onion skillfully and turned it on again. The oil was hot, and she easily poured the onion into the pot and stir-fried it. The oil in the pot was still sizzling, and the white hot air and the fragrance of onions curled up. In the smell of fireworks, Fu Shitian's delicate face, and the quiet night outside the glass window, the picture was so beautiful that it looked like a home promotional film. Shi Yi was absent-minded for a few seconds without realizing it.
When the onions were fried and fragrant, Fu Shitian poured in the beaten eggs. After the eggs were fried, she poured in the tomatoes and stir-fried them.
The gap was too big, so Shi Yi gave up on taking over. She took off her apron, walked over and called Fu Shitian: "Shitian."
Fu Shitian turned sideways and looked up. Shi Yi put the apron on her steadily, naturally against her ears, and helped her tie the straps around her neck.
Shi Yi's warm breath seemed to fall on Fu Shitian's ears and neck, causing her skin to tremble. Fu Shitian didn't dare to move, and waited for this sweet torture to end with her neck stiff.
My heart was beating so loudly that it seemed like it was going to jump out of my chest.
Shi Yi finally stepped back, slid his fingertips down to her waist, and pinched the straps on both sides.
Perhaps it was the scent of her hair that was too alluring, or perhaps it was the gentleness of her long drooping eyelashes that gave people the illusion of overestimating their own capabilities.
Fu Shitian's throat slid, and he actually heard himself ask: "Shi Yi, am I the first classmate you brought back here?"
The author has something to say: Fu Little Bunny: Shiyi Shiyi, am I the first little bunny you brought home
Shi Yi: Yeah.
Little Rabbit: Have you read the storybook
Shi Yi: Hmm
Fu Shitian: You took me home and took me in. Does that mean you are my benefactor
Shi Yi: ... just for now
Fu Xiaotuji was embarrassed: Should I repay you then
Shi Yi: How do you want to repay me
The little rabbit didn't say anything and shyly snuggled into Shi Yi's bed.
Shi Yi: ??? Repaying kindness with enmity, occupying the magpie's nest
Little Rabbit:…
Woo woo woo, Shi Yi is such an idiot!
