"Be good, I have to go home." Gu Jingcheng's tone sounded a little tired.

"Isn't this your home?" Jiang Qi asked, looking into his eyes. Her fingertips unconsciously pinched into the palm of her hand.

Gu Jingcheng didn't answer, but looked at her seriously and said, "Qiqi. I'm married."

"I know, so what?" Jiang Qi answered, still looking into his eyes, in a calm tone.

Gu Jingcheng also looked at Jiang Qi, but remained silent and did not answer.

Jiang Qi continued to ask: "So you want to cut off contact with me now, right?"

"No." Gu Jingcheng lowered his eyes and shook his head slowly.

Jiang Qi loosened her fingertips, closed her eyes and took a breath.

"Then park the car quickly and go back to bed. I'm sleepy."

Then Gu Jingcheng drove the car into the Jiang family’s garage.

Everyone in the house was asleep. After the two entered the house, there was no conversation. Jiang Qi went upstairs directly. When she reached the stairs, Gu Jingcheng grabbed Jiang Qi's wrist.

Jiang Qi turned around and looked at him in confusion.

Gu Jingcheng looked at her and said softly, "I want to eat. I didn't have dinner last night. I'm hungry."

Jiang Qi looked at him without saying anything, but she grabbed his hand that was holding her wrist and pulled him towards the kitchen.

The Jiang family’s kitchen is an independent, relatively small two-story building at the left rear of the main building, with both floors serving as kitchens.

Jiang Qi opened the combination lock and walked in with Gu Jingcheng. When the light was turned on, everything was neatly arranged in the cabinets. Under the reflection of the light, the floor and the stove were so clean that they reflected light, which was dazzling.

After waiting for a while, until her eyes adjusted, Jiang Qi walked to the refrigerator, opened the door, looked inside, took out a pack of toast for sandwiches and a box of milk and handed them to Gu Jingcheng.

"You can eat this. There is nothing left at home except this." The Jiang family would not save any food until the next day. Except for rice, flour, oil, sugar and seasonings, they would usually buy enough for the day in the morning. There would be nothing left at night.

Gu Jingcheng looked at the bread and milk in his hand and suddenly thought: "Let's cook some noodles."

Jiang Qi looked at him with a complicated expression: "Are you sure? It's just you and me, who's going to do it?"

"Uh, just pretend I didn't say anything." Gu Jingcheng thought of the cola ginger soup that Jiang Qi had made for him before. He didn't want to have that kind of experience again.

As for him and her, they were about the same. He just didn't know why he suddenly thought of Su Muqing. During this period, his grandfather had been in contact with her a lot, and when he came back late one time, Su Muqing went to make him a bowl of noodles.

Gu Jingcheng looked at the milk in his hand and said to Jiang Qi, "Then you can at least heat up the milk for me!"

"This is fine." After saying that, Jiang Qi took the milk, found a small pot, poured the milk into it, heated it on the stove, and finally poured it into a cup and handed it to Gu Jingcheng.

Jiang Qi looked at Gu Jingcheng sitting at the dining table, eating slowly with a mouthful of bread and a sip of milk. She asked, "Why didn't you eat dinner?"

"I was too busy to think about eating."

"What are you busy with? It took more than three hours from the time I called you to the time you came to see me. You didn't even have time to eat."

"Nothing, just work." After a pause, he asked casually, "Why didn't you call me again?"

"Then why don't you say you are busy?"

"Oh."

"Okay, eat quickly, then wash the dishes and go to bed. I'm really sleepy." After saying that, Jiang Qi yawned very appropriately.

After Gu Jingcheng finished eating, the two of them cleaned up the pots, bowls, and stove, turned off the lights, locked the door, and returned to the main building.

The Jiang family has a bedroom exclusively for Gu Jingcheng, which is right opposite Jiang Qi's room.

Walking to the door, Jiang Qi said to Gu Jingcheng, "I know this place better than you and I do. As you know, your room is cleaned every day and all the toiletries are there. Pajamas and other things are cleaned and arranged on time. I won't care about you anymore. I'm going to sleep."

Afterwards, they said good night and went back to their respective rooms.
