Qi Yue's wish to avoid Qi Mingyu did not come true.
"Ah?" Qi Yue looked at Qi Mingyu dumbfounded and confirmed, "You mean, you want me to accompany your brother? Then... what about Ivan?"
Qi Mingyu folded his hands and said, "I think you know the situation at Ivan's family."
"I know, but..." Qi Yue was a little embarrassed.
"She took the initiative to resign and recommended you to me before resigning." Qi Mingyu looked at Qi Yue's hesitant expression and couldn't help but frown, "Don't you want to go?"
"Well, I have a lot of part-time jobs to do..."
"I quit," Qi Mingyu said, "The remuneration I will give you is worth the combined salary of all your part-time jobs."
Qi Yue sighed, "Actually, you can still find someone else."
Qi Mingyu didn't seem to understand why Qi Yue refused such a good thing, but he still said, "I don't want to waste time, and Mingfan doesn't exclude you... I mean, he gets along very well with you."
The more Qi thought of the silent little boy, so well-behaved that it was heartbreaking, he couldn't bear to refuse, and it seemed that he had no reason to refuse Qi Mingyu.
In this way, Qi Yue began to go in and out of Qi Mingyu's house for two hours every day.
"What are you eating today?" Qi Mingyu was sitting on the sofa, flipping through a magazine, and asked Qi Yue, who was playing with Qi Mingfan on the carpet.
Qi Yue has been taking care of Qi Mingfan for a while. During this period, the frequent meetings he expected with Qi Mingyu did not happen. They only saw each other when they came and left. Qi Mingyu seemed to deliberately take care of him. Qi Mingfan and Qi Mingfan were alone together, probably because they wanted Qi Mingfan to be able to contact outsiders more smoothly.
Since the first time Qi Yue made egg custard for Qi Mingfan, Qi Mingyu would ask Qi Yue to cook Qi Mingfan's meals when Qi Yue came at noon. At first, it was just a simple extra meal, but later Qi Mingyu felt that Qi Yue's cooking was very good, so he talked with Qi Yue and hoped that Qi Yue could also be responsible for Qi Mingfan's meals in the future. Of course, in return, the reward would be increased, and Qi Yue could also eat here.
Sometimes Qi Mingyu will join in to eat together, so now Qi Yue is responsible for lunch for two people.
I don’t know how they settled their dinner.
"Well, Mingfan, let's choose." Qi Yue took out a few pictures, all of which were delicious and cute foods. These were specially prepared by Qi Yue for Qi Mingfan so that Qi Mingfan could express what he wanted to eat. thing.
Qi Mingfan pulled the picture with his two small hands, frowning, looking bitter and resentful. After a long while, he picked up a picture and handed it to Qi Yue.
"I'm going to cook." Qi Yue stood up, carried Qi Mingfan to Qi Mingyu, then patted his little head, "Wait a moment."
Qi Mingyu watched Qi Yue turn around and walk into the kitchen, then lowered his head to look at his brother. Qi Mingfan also looked up at Qi Mingyu at this time, with eyes as big as cat's eyes open.
Qi Mingyu smiled and pinched Qi Mingfan's face - Mingfan had gained a lot of weight due to Qi Yue during this period.
"Do you like this brother?" Qi Mingyu asked in a low voice.
He originally just asked out of the blue and didn't expect Qi Mingfan to give him a reaction. Unexpectedly, Qi Mingfan nodded.
Qi Mingfan hugged Qi Mingyu's arm and snuggled his little body next to Qi Mingyu, just like he often did before.
"That's good." Qi Mingyu sighed.
Lunch is very simple, with pancakes and a few stir-fried vegetables, which can be rolled up and eaten.
"What is this?" Qi Mingyu asked, pointing to a bowl of dark stuff.
"Ah, this is the beef sauce I made. It can be used as a sauce." Qi Yue scratched his head, "You should try it."
Qi Yue came to Qi Mingfan's side and gave Qi Mingfan a roll of pancake to eat.
After carefully wrapping a pancake, Qi Yue looked up and saw Qi Mingyu's finishing work - stuffing the pancake into his mouth and finishing the whole pancake.
So fast - Qi Yue looked at Qi Mingyu in surprise and couldn't help but ask, "Well... how does it taste?"
"Not bad." Qi Mingyu nodded and went to get the second piece of cake.
When Qi Yue had eaten less than a third of the cake, he stared blankly at Qi Mingyu reaching for the third cake. At this time, there was only one lonely cake left on the cake plate.
Qi Mingyu ate very quickly, grabbing the cake directly with his hands, but he ate it extremely elegantly. His fingers were long and slender, and nothing else was stained except flour. He obviously had a good etiquette education.
Look at himself again - Qi Yue lowered his head, his fingers were stained with squeezed beef sauce, and vegetable soup was spilled on the table. For a moment, Qi Yue felt a little disappointed. The distance between him and Qi Mingyu was not just due to the same gender, disparity in status, and appearance... It could even be seen in the smallest details - they were from two different worlds. people.
Sighing in frustration, Qi Yue comforted himself in his heart - it's okay. Anyway, he didn't want anything to happen to Qi Mingyu. It's impossible to even think about it. Just like that, it's good to simply appreciate someone. .
"Why are you sighing?" Qi Mingyu suddenly asked.
Qi Yue was startled, and he quickly shook his head and asked, "Nothing, do you want to eat more? There is also... uh, a piece of cake..."
Qi Mingyu frowned, looked at Qi Mingfan who was still chewing the cake, then looked at Qi Yue who had just eaten a third of the cake, and said, "It's too little."
Qi Yue smiled awkwardly, "I'll be full after eating just one."
"Forget it, I'm full too." Qi Mingyu stood up and left the dining table.
Qi Yue wanted to stop Qi Mingyu. At this time, Qi Mingfan had already finished eating the cake in his hand, so he stretched out his little hand, pinched the only piece of cake, and handed it to Qi Yue.
Qi Yue: "..."
In the end, he was afraid that Qi Mingfan would eat too much to hold on, so Qi Yue only gave half to Qi Mingfan and took care of the other half himself. Fortunately, Qi Mingfan was obedient and didn't make a fuss. However, Qi Yue hoped that Qi Mingfan would get emotional, but he couldn't rush this.
"Snapped!"
Qi Yue came out of Qi Mingyu's house. There was a traffic jam on the road. He was about to miss the afternoon class. You know, the teacher for this afternoon class had to be called by name. In order to get credits, Qi Yue had to run as hard as he could, but he collided with someone. On.
Others were fine, but he himself fell to the ground.
"Are you okay?" came a gentle voice.
Qi Yue raised his head. The tall figure in front of him stood against the light and stretched out a hand to him.
Although it was a little blurry, Qi Yue still recognized this person as Ying Jincheng. He stood up in a panic and did not hold Ying Jincheng's hand.
Although he didn't have much contact with Ying Jincheng, Qi Yue was quite afraid of this gentle senior. It was probably because every time Ying Jincheng saw him, he had an expression on his face as if he could see through him, which made him feel a little bit... Embarrassing—even though he had heard that this senior had the same sexual orientation as himself.
After standing up, Qi Yue realized that Ying Jincheng's outstretched hand had not been taken back. His head felt hot, so he stretched out his hand to hold Ying Jincheng's hand and shook it twice.
After coming back to his senses, Qi Yue's face turned red with embarrassment.
"No...that, I didn't mean it, senior." Qi Yue lowered his head and looked at his toes, with an attitude of admitting his mistake.
"Pfft..." A chuckle came.
"Haha." Qi Yue smiled awkwardly.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Ying Jincheng asked, looking at the boy in front of him who was about to lower his head to his chest, with a hint of smile in his eyes.
"Ah... ah! Class!" Qi Yue suddenly raised his head, "I'm going to be late for class!"
He was speaking so anxiously, and there was also urgency on his face. His steps kept hesitating, but he looked like he didn't dare to leave even if he wanted to. Ying Jincheng was a little bit dumbfounded.
"You're going to be late, why don't you go quickly?"
Qi Yue ran away as if he had received amnesty.
Looking at Qi Yue's quickly disappearing back, Ying Jincheng touched his chin and thought for a moment. He didn't seem to have done anything excessive to him, right? Why does he look so afraid of himself
Unless... Ying Jincheng shook his head and smiled, but he didn't realize that Qi Yue was quite sensitive.
A few months have passed, and this semester is coming to an end. Ivan has returned to school, but only as a day student. She has to go back to take care of his father. Her mother has to work to support the family. Her father is paralyzed in bed. She really can't live without people, and she The family didn't have any extra money to hire a nanny, and they were even in debt.
Qi Yue wanted to give Ivan the salary he had received from Qi Mingyu in the past few months, because he knew that Ivan needed money the most now, but Ivan was unwilling to ask for it no matter what, and Qi Yue's family was also in difficulty. She knew that Uncle Qi himself was disabled and it was impossible for Ivan to take Qi Yue's money.
But Qi Yue also said that he only got this job because Ivan left. Now that she had something to do, he couldn't just sit back and watch. In the end, Ivan took half of the money and said he would return it to Qi Yue in the future.
Qi Yue just touched Ivan's head, looked at her red eyes and smiled, "Silly girl, are you still polite to me? Oops, it makes me so sad to see someone like this."
Ivan snorted, burst into laughter, and suddenly hugged Qi Yue, "Qi Yue, you are so kind."
It was really good, she'd known it all along.
Qi Yue smiled and said, "Okay, didn't I tell you, do you want to talk to me if you have any difficulties? We grew up together, don't be alienated from me."
"Yes." Ivan responded with a cry, "Thank you."
"What's there to be thankful for... By the way, the money for uncle's treatment..."
"It's all paid in." Ivan said, "Senior Qi lent me a sum of money."
"What?" Qi Yue asked in surprise, "Are you talking about Senior Qi Mingyu? President?"
"Yeah." Ivan nodded, "When I went to resign, he asked me what happened. After knowing what happened to my father, the senior loaned me 100,000 yuan... I really never thought that the senior would lend me The person who gave me the money is a bit surprised now that I think about it.”
Qi Yue smiled and said, "What's the surprise? The senior is a good person."
Ivan hugged Qi Yue's arm, "You too, you are the best."
She knew that Qi Mingyu's family was rich, so it was okay to give her one hundred thousand yuan. Although she didn't understand why Qi Mingyu would lend her money for no reason. Speaking of it, their relationship was at best that of employer and victim. An employment relationship, or an additional layer of student union relationship.
But Qi Yue is different. She has always known that Qi Yue is a person with a soft heart. He will give unconditionally to the people he cares about without asking for anything in return. Qi Yue is able to think despite his own difficult conditions. Looking at her, Ivan felt that she would never forget such a touching feeling in her life.
