Xia Wennan squatted by the bed with his face upturned in a daze.

Ming Luchuan showed a very impatient expression, and asked him: "What are you going to do?"

Xia Wennan said, "Oh, I just came to say hello to the boss."

"No need, you can go."

Xia Wennan asked again: "Then when will I go back to work?"

Ming Luchuan said: "You can go back whenever you want."

This answer made Xia Wennan fall into thought, he asked curiously: "What if I don't want to go to work all the time?"

Ming Luchuan didn't seem to have expected his question, so he was silent for two seconds before answering, "It's up to you."

"Will the salary be paid?"

Ming Luchuan said, "I'll send it to you."

Xia Wennan was a little surprised, "Are you so nice?" At this moment, Xia Wennan's small determination to divorce shook slightly, and then he felt that the meaning of Ming Luchuan's words was wrong. The boss pays the employee wages, but he wants to treat him as a househusband.

"No need," Xia Wennan, who had figured this out, refused without hesitation. "Although I am a Beta, I don't need to be supported by others. I can support myself."

Ming Luchuan looked down at him slightly, with the corners of his mouth drawn into a straight line, and said in a deep voice, "Then get out quickly."

Xia Wennan was puzzled: "Why do you keep urging me out?"

At this time, Ming Luchuan's cell phone beside the bed rang suddenly, and Xia Wennan turned his head subconsciously, and saw that the name on the caller ID was: Mingqin.

Ming Luchuan picked up his cell phone and connected the call, his tone neither alienated nor intimate: "Hello."

Xia Wennan didn't know what was being said on the phone, he just noticed that after Ming Luchuan took the phone away, a monkey's head was exposed from under the pillow.

This is exactly the stuffed monkey that Xia Wennan gave to Ming Luchuan just now.

Ming Luchuan said into the phone, "Well, he's been discharged from the hospital."

Xia Wennan reached for the monkey, grabbed its head and pulled it out from under the pillow.

Ming Luchuan said: "It's pretty good, but there's something wrong with my head."

After Xia Wennan caught this monkey out of the machine, it was the first time that Xia Wennan took a closer look at it under bright light. It was not delicate at all, even a bit ugly, with its two eyes slanted up and down.

Ming Luchuan said, "When? Tomorrow night?"

Xia Wennan smelled something.

Ming Luchuan said, "I'll tell him."

Xia Wennan brought the monkey close to his nose and smelled it carefully. This time, he was sure that what remained on the monkey was the scent of Mingluchuan pheromone, which was faint and distinct.

Ming Luchuan finally said: "Okay, come over after work." He hung up the phone, and when he looked up, Xia Wennan was looking at him with wide-eyed eyes.

"What are you looking at?" Ming Luchuan's eyes slowly fell on the monkey in Xia Wennan's hand.

Xia Wennan's thoughts were a little confused, he raised the monkey and shook it, "I didn't expect you to have such a special liking."

Ming Luchuan raised his jaw slightly, and asked indifferently, "What are you talking about?"

Xia Wennan stuffed the monkey into his hand, "It's okay, it's yours if I give it to you." After finishing speaking, he hurriedly stood up and walked outside.

When he reached the door, Xia Wennan stopped again, opened the door and looked at Ming Luchuan suspiciously: "So is it possible for monkeys?" He suddenly remembered that night in the hospital, he told Ming Luchuan that he could not like an Alpha, just like He couldn't possibly like a chicken. But monkeys can, why not chickens? Chickens are fine, so why not Alpha

Xia Wennan broke out in a cold sweat because of his sudden association. Without waiting for Ming Luchuan's answer, he hurriedly said: "Good night." Then he closed the door.

Until lying on the bed, Xia Wennan thought about it carefully, and felt that he might have misunderstood. The monkey was pressed under the mobile phone, and it may have smelled of the mobile phone. This matter does not necessarily have anything to do with the monkey, and it has nothing to do with the chicken and Alpha.

As he thought this way, his active mind gradually relaxed, and then he fell into a deep sleep.

This sleep lasted until the next morning. He seemed to have slept for too long, and his whole body was in a daze. He stepped on his slippers and walked to the window and opened the curtains. The bright sunlight penetrated the floor-to-ceiling windows and instantly illuminated the whole room. .

Coming out of the room, the whole house is transparent and bright, with the bright summer sun but without having to endure the scorching heat, Xia Wennan stretched comfortably.

Although he doesn't like Ming Luchuan very much, he really likes this house. According to the real estate information he inquired, this house is not in his name, it is Ming Luchuan's own house. I don't know if he will make enough money one day to buy the house from Ming Luchuan.

If you want to buy a house, you can't go back to your hometown and lie flat, Xia Wennan thought while walking towards the kitchen, he should go back to the company as soon as possible to understand his work situation.

He is Mingyan's R&D manager, and Xia Wennan still doesn't know how much his position has to do with his marriage to Ming Luchuan. He couldn't help but raised his hand and tapped his head. He went to Ming Luchuan's room last night to figure out this problem, but was interrupted by Ming Luchuan and forgot.

It seems that his head is not very good, and he doesn't know when to go back to the hospital for reexamination.

Xia Wennan walked to the front of the refrigerator, and when he was about to reach out to open the door, he noticed a note pasted on it, which read: Breakfast is in the pot.

He froze for a moment, walked into the kitchen and saw an electric steamer, opened the lid, and there were buns and eggs inside, still keeping warm. He went to the refrigerator again, tore off the sticky note on it, folded it, changed his mind when he wanted to throw it away, and stuffed it into his trouser pocket.

Today's breakfast consisted of buns, eggs and milk. Xia Wennan sat alone in the bright dining room, eating breakfast while looking at the scenery outside the glass window.

He took out his mobile phone, and originally wanted to send a message to Ming Luchuan, asking him if he prepared breakfast. Just after typing a few words, Xia Wennan deleted them all again. He put his phone back and planned to visit Mingyan after breakfast and ask him in front of Ming Luchuan.

Of course, this is not the main purpose of his going to Mingyan. What he wants to know more now is whether he can still be competent for his previous job, and whether he has a way to live independently after leaving Ming Luchuan.

After drinking the last sip of milk in the cup, Xia Wennan leaned back in the chair, raised his head and sighed. It’s so annoying, he misses his college life so much, the days when he just had to follow the schedule and have friends playing games and football by his side every day, and he also misses having a home to go back to on weekends and a grandpa waiting for him to give The days when he cooks, walks with grandpa and plays chess after dinner.

The future is obviously still far away, and he worked so hard for three years in high school, isn't it just for the best years of his life in college campus life? But when he woke up, he had nothing. He lost his family and became an adult, who had to bear the pressure of work and even marriage and family. And all this is completely different from the future he resembles.

Xia Wennan raised his hands to cover his face, sighed more deeply, then put down his hands, allowing himself to stand up in a light posture, straightened his back and cleared the dining table.
