"...Really?" Zhou Xiao froze in place, half-believing.
Xiao Chuyi was a little funny, it was obviously Zhou Xiao who kept asking, but when he told the truth, the other party didn't seem to believe it.
Probably because he felt that what he said was too light, but it didn't show any weight.
But this is indeed not a lie.
Looking at it from another angle, Sheng Yuhang has an outstanding appearance, a gentle personality, and he takes extra care of him.
Even if it's just based on the appearance of that face, it's hard for ordinary people not to have a good impression of him.
And Xiao Chuyi gets along with Sheng Yuhang more, so he can appreciate his thoughtfulness and tenderness more.
On the surface, whether as friends or as lovers, Sheng Yuhang is undoubtedly the type that makes people have countless expectations.
Xiao Chuyi considered himself an ordinary person, so he couldn't help being touched by it.
So he did not deny that he did have a good impression of Sheng Yuhang.
The kind of good feeling that can talk about love.
Xiao Chuyi put the bowl away, turned to look at Zhou Xiao.
"Really." Xiao Chuyi tilted his head, "Do you believe me if I don't?"
While talking, Xiao Chuyi walked slowly back to the table and sat down, propped his chin with one hand, and continued: "Even if you look at that face, you won't find it annoying, right?"
Zhou Xiao thought about it carefully, and found that she had no way to refute. After holding back for a while, she could only ask in confusion: "Then why..." Why are you not together?
"Having a good impression and being together are two different things." Xiao Chuyi asked back, "If you can be together if you have a good impression, aren't you stepping on many boats?"
Zhou Xiao silently closed his mouth, he was really speechless.
To put it mildly, he is called fraternal love, but in fact he loves each other when he sees one.
Fortunately, he is self-aware of his own patience, and at most you can flirt with him as much as you want, so he hasn't capsized yet.
With this level of analogy, Zhou Xiao touched his pierced heart and pondered for a moment, and finally realized suddenly.
"That's right, you don't look like a rotten person like me." Zhou Xiao sighed on the table, dragging out her tone of emotion, "After all, Young Master Xiao is in love with nostalgia, you have to be serious when you are in love, right? .”
Xiao Chuyi hummed noncommittally: "The things to consider are just different."
"I'm not mocking you." Zhou Xiao rubbed her forehead and added, "I think you're quite remarkable for being able to think clearly about the future and restrain your desires, so I'll do it completely. It's not here."
Zhou Xiao sighed again as she spoke, not knowing how to explain it, so she could only say lazily: "But no matter what you want to do, I will definitely support you."
"I know." Xiao Chuyi smiled at him, "Thank you."
Xiao Chuyi's eyebrows and eyes were curved, with a hint of tenderness.
Zhou Xiao felt inexplicably hot, subconsciously looked away, and touched the top of her hair embarrassingly.
This is the trust he encountered without any impurities.
Ordinary people's impression of Zhou Xiao is that he is unreliable, even his own parents don't expect anything from him, they just hope that he won't get into a catastrophe.
Only Xiao Chuyi trusted him without hesitation, and would thank him for his help and encouragement.
"You don't need to be so alien." Zhou Xiao held back for a long time and burst out with pride, "We are brothers, and I will definitely support you! So don't be afraid, I will cover you from now on!"
At this time, he hadn't thought at all that his contacts and background were not as reliable as Xiao Chuyi himself.
Xiao Chuyi just smiled indulgently: "Okay. Then I will trouble you."
Zhou Xiao smirked, seemingly satisfied.
Xiao Chuyi only thought it was funny, and the uneasiness and helplessness of the first meeting also dissipated one after another.
Although Zhou Xiao is a silly and sweet person, his sincerity is the most important thing, and he is really hard to hate.
Xiao Chuyi suffered from insomnia for a long time.
Zhou Xiao's words kept turning around in his mind, making it difficult for him to fall asleep.
Those conversations were only superficial, but they also aroused Xiao Chuyi's deeper and complicated thoughts.
Nostalgia and long-term love are second, but there are indeed too many things to consider.
The two's family background, three views, habits, past, etc. are all issues that are within reach.
Just relying on that little liking and goodwill is not enough to obliterate the influence of those external factors.
But this is not the main concern of Xiao Chuyi.
It's not that no one has chased him before, both men and women, and it's not uncommon for students to confess their love to him after a few classes.
No matter whether they were affectionate or novel, they all had to come to his gentle and distant rejection that treated them equally.
He is well aware of the negative part of his nature, those dark and muddy shadows that have haunted him since childhood and lingered throughout the years.
If one cuts open one's nature, probably no one can stand a person like him who can only see darkness.
And those who said they liked him rushed forward one after another, probably just taking advantage of that face.
Xiao Chuyi always had this idea.
In his previous life, when he was in good health and had a stable job, he still regarded himself as a "drag". Now that everything is unclear, he is not allowed to be desperate, so he can only pretend to be deaf and dumb, and turn a deaf ear.
Xiao Chuyi opened his eyes and looked out of the window, the curtains were not drawn, and the moonlight from outside poured in, spilled onto the bed, and also onto his face.
There was a bright light in his vision, but he subconsciously raised his hand to block his eyes.
The slightly cool temperature of his fingertips made him calm down slowly.
After a while, he snorted lightly at himself.
In the final analysis, it is not enough to like or not enough to love——
Like something that may be real, but it is far from the point where there is no turning back.
There is no hope of giving everything for it.
Xiao Chuyi is a very calm person, excessive rationality will also isolate those uncertain emotions from the door.
To put it another way, it would also make him a coward in some ways.
——Then what should we do?
At the end of the conversation, Zhou Xiao also asked such a question.
"Just wait." Xiao Chuyi said, "Wait until he or I are willing to take a step forward..."
Or each backed away and pretended nothing happened.
Zhou Xiao stayed in City B for a while.
Xiao Chuyi can't always find him. Compared to him, a road idiot, Zhou Xiao is more at home in City B than he is.
Fortunately, that guy still remembered to call back when he was hanging out with his friends all night.
Zhou Xiao brought two messages to Xiao Chuyi.
One is about the Xiao family. The parents of the Xiao family have obviously noticed something, and recently they have become stricter with their eldest son.
The Xiao family's parents are not considered old. They also worked as shopkeepers for a period of time in order to train their eldest son, but they were only doing it for their son on the bright side.
Now the eldest brother of the Xiao family is still young, and his handling of things is still a little immature, and his status is still a long way from being completely stable.
It was not difficult for Xiao's parents to take back what they had thrown to their eldest son.
But obviously this will bring a serious blow to the psychology and self-esteem of the eldest son.
Zhou Xiao also danced and imitated the gloomy face of Xiao's eldest brother when he was driven home in public, gloating all over his face.
He doesn't like the eldest brother of the Xiao family - it may be a little mild to say that he doesn't like it, but to be more precise, he hates the eldest brother of the Xiao family very much.
For Zhou Xiao to show such obvious joy, it is obvious that the situation of the eldest brother of the Xiao family is indeed tragic enough.
For this, Xiao Chuyi is naturally happy to hear it.
That was one of the original owner's greatest enemies.
The eldest brother of the Xiao family, whose name is Xiao Yuze, is not a few years older than Xiao Chuyi, but his ability is not bad. He joined the company directly after graduation, completely looking like a future successor of the company.
Of course, outsiders also think so, including the former Xiao Chuyi.
When Xiao Yuze joined the company, the original owner had just faced the college entrance examination.
Although the original owner is a little arrogant, he is generally a standard top student. With his grades, he can definitely enter the best university in city A, which is also one of the world's famous universities.
And most of the children of rich families in City A will choose to stay in City A. The heirs have been helping the family since college, and those who are fooling around, such as Zhou Xiao and others, will stay in their own. Eat, drink and have fun on the ground.
Except for those who went abroad for further study, it is very rare in city A to go directly to a university in another city like the original owner, and even choose a major that has nothing to do with the management company.
Some discerning people can naturally see that the original owner did this to avoid suspicion.
Not every heir in every family is stable enough, and not everyone is as willing to dawdle as Zhou Xiao.
It is not unique that Xiao Yuze is so vigilant and hostile towards his younger brother.
In the original owner's memory, he had a bad relationship with his elder brother since he was a child. Fortunately, his parents were not biased and did not make the original owner suffer any grievances.
After all, he was his own brother. Although the original owner didn't like the elder brother, he didn't question his status as the heir.
The former young master was proud and arrogant, and felt that he could create his own career with his own hands.
So it's no big deal to start over from another location.
The original owner's coming to City B was indeed largely due to the elder brother of the Xiao family, but at that time the relationship between them was neither salty nor weak, and they could barely be called brothers.
Thinking about it carefully, although they didn't deal with it much when they were young, in fact, the eldest brother of the Xiao family didn't really do anything to hurt the original owner.
When the original owner left home, the once indifferent elder brother gradually became kind, and the relationship between the two became closer for the first time.
The Xiao family's parents were moved by this for a long time at first, thinking that the two children had finally grown up and they didn't need to worry anymore.
But no one knows that this is just the origin of all tragedies.
If Shen Bixiao was the one who directly killed the original owner and Xiao's parents, then Xiao Yuze was the biggest driving force behind him.
The plot doesn't focus much on the big brother of the Xiao family, and the focus is on the love-hate relationship between Shen Bixiao and the original owner.
But judging from the memory of the dead original owner, when he was tricked by Shen Bixiao into signing the contract, which indirectly caused the Xiao family to face difficulties, Xiao Yuze gradually revealed his ambition.
When the Xiao family reacted, Xiao Yuze had already emptied the Xiao family's property, and even watched the death of his parents who had raised him for more than 20 years without changing his face.
The Xiao family was completely torn up to this point, and soon the original owner was overwhelmed and chose to commit suicide.
Until his death, the original owner didn't know why his eldest brother would do such a thing.
At that time, the original owner was already full of despair, unable to think deeply at all, Xiao Chuyi looked at the original owner's memories from childhood to adulthood, and had some guesses.
In the beginning, the parents of the Xiao family wanted to give the inheritance right to the youngest son—it was just that the youngest son had been hostile and brainwashed by the elder son for many years, so he never thought of asking for the inheritance right at all.
This is extremely rare when the eldest son is not incurably mediocre.
Especially the parents of the Xiao family are not the kind of people who would spoil their children without thinking.
Regardless of other things, Xiao's parents are both good-looking people, the standard male and female beauty, even though they are not young, they are still handsome.
Needless to say, the original owner himself, the standard beauty appearance is almost carved out of the same mold as Xiao's mother.
When the three of them stood together, they didn't need to take the initiative to speak at all, and others could guess that they were a family of three.
And Xiao Yuze's appearance can't be said to be bad, strictly speaking he is also a handsome guy, but compared with the other three, he is not on the same level.
They don't look alike.
When the original owner was a child, he heard his grandmother persuade Xiao's mother to send his eldest brother away. Xiao's mother hesitated several times, but in the end she still refused.
It's just that the original owner was too young at that time to remember these details.
Later, my grandmother passed away due to illness, and this topic was never brought up again.
Do normal people need to send their own eldest son away?
The Xiao family couldn't even afford to support two children, but they only made such a choice for the eldest son.
Then the truth seems to be coming out.
Xiao Chuyi didn't really verify the authenticity of this answer, and there's no need for it, he just needs to know that the target that needs revenge is enough.
On the contrary, Xiao's parents' reaction was faster and more ruthless than he imagined.
But this is not surprising, the two elders who are over fifty years old also worked hard all the way since they were young, and they haven't seen any storms in so many years.
It is not difficult for them to tear away the disguise and see clearly the dark thoughts of a young man who has been carefully protected by them for more than [-] years.
This is also one of the reasons why Xiao Chuyi did not return to City A.
Xiao Yuze's most sorry person is Xiao's father and Xiao's mother. Even if they don't know about it, it is more appropriate for them to seek "justice" by themselves.
And Xiao Chuyi... just need to add another fire at the end.
So when Zhou Xiao asked him what he was going to do with a serious face, Xiao Chuyi just replied with something irrelevant.
"Well, I will go back during the Chinese New Year." Xiao Chuyi replied.
"Didn't I ask you this! Besides, do you want to be broken by your father if you don't go home after the New Year!" Zhou Xiao was a little mad, "I'm talking about your brother! Your brother! A while ago he was spreading rumors outside every day. Are you not angry at all about your rumors?!"
"Well, I'm very angry." Xiao Chuyi nodded.
"You don't look so angry! At least put your smile away! Your brother is cheating on you! Don't you feel it?!"
Zhou Xiao waved his fist angrily, looking more like the victim than Xiao Chuyi.
"Brother Yi, you can't go on mourning any longer! What if uncles and aunts soften their hearts again?!"
"So I'm asking you to help watch him." Xiao Chuyi said calmly, "Don't worry, he won't survive next year."
Infected by Xiao Chuyi's composure, Zhou Xiao also became quiet for a while, and subconsciously straightened her back when she heard the first half of the sentence, feeling as if a mountain called "responsibility" was on her shoulders.
But when he heard the second part of the sentence, his whole body trembled subconsciously, and after a long while he reminded nonchalantly: "...Yi, brother Yi, killing people is against the law...you can't go with yours for the sake of scum." The rest of my life!"
"Who said I'm going to kill him." Xiao Chuyi raised his eyes to look at Zhou Xiao, and smiled very kindly, "Have you never heard of the iron law that the villain will end up on the street for no reason?"
"...Yi, Brother Yi, I think you look more like a villain now..." You laughed so terribly.
Xiao Chuyi swept over with gentle eyes, Zhou Xiao silently covered her mouth.
"What about the second news?" Xiao Chuyi continued to ask.
"This is still related to your unlucky brother." Zhou Xiao rubbed against Xiao Chuyi with a sneaky look, "Let me tell you, last time I went to your house, your parents still shut you down." He's in confinement. I wanted to ask your parents if they had anything to bring you, and then I went to your house, but your parents were not at home, but Aunt Chen, who was cooking, was there, so I stayed for a while. Meal..."
"Speak the key."
"Ahem, the point is, who is your brother on the phone with? I heard the phone ringing, and when I passed by, I saw that the number belonged to City B. Fortunately, I was resourceful and hid before he found out, and then I I heard him mention your name..."
Zhou Xiao's voice became smaller and smaller, but his tone became more and more serious.
"I suspect that he is planning to find someone to beat you up to vent his anger. Brother Yi, you must be more careful recently!"
Xiao Chuyi frowned slightly: "Did you hear his name?"
Zhou Xiao thought about it carefully, and said with some uncertainty: "It seems that his name is Jing Sheng, the surname is not clear, I don't know if it is Lin or Ning, I am afraid he will find out, it is a little far away..."
"I see." Xiao Chuyi interrupted him, "Thank you."
There are not many people with this similar name in the memory of the original owner. If it is accurate within the scope of City B, it will not be too difficult to find.
——Lin Jingsheng.
The original owner's college classmate, if you think about it carefully, seems to be the person who introduced him and Shen Bixiao to each other and became familiar with him at the beginning.
Xiao Chuyi thought for a moment, took out his phone and clicked on a message from a long time ago.
The sender was none other than Lin Jingsheng, and the content was not too strange, it was to confirm whether he would attend the university reunion or not.
It's just that the time of sending the mail happened to be at the time when the original owner was tricked by Shen Bixiao to solicit sponsors for the company everywhere.
He glanced at the date in the text message.
It seems to be a recent thing.
Zhou Xiao couldn't sit still for a few days, and he muttered that living in his house always felt a kind of inexplicable coolness, so he took advantage of this to stay away all day and night.
Xiao Chuyi is not his parents, so he is not too worried about what will happen to such a big adult.
Strictly speaking, Zhou Xiao knows the way better than him, has more friends than him, and is much safer than him when going out.
On weekends when he was not going to work, Xiao Chuyi seldom slept until noon, woke up and looked at the time on his phone in a daze for a long time before opening the door in his pajamas.
Sheng Yuhang was standing outside the door, as if he was about to knock on the door.
"Ms. Xiao." Sheng Yuhang put down his hand hanging in the air, with a gentle smile on his face, "Good morning."
"It's getting late." Xiao Chuyi sighed, "I'm sorry, I slept for too long, have you had breakfast yet?"
"Eat it, and ordered a bowl of noodles."
"What about lunch?"
"Have not eat yet."
"Then wait for me, I'll cook first." Xiao Chuyi rubbed his messy hair, turned around and yawned, and was about to go back, "There should be some food left in the refrigerator."
As soon as Sheng Yuhang reached out, he grabbed his wrist.
Xiao Chuyi turned his head in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Sheng Yuhang's eyes fell on Xiao Chuyi's face, from his messy hair to his slightly confused and watery eyes.
The moment he met the other party's confused gaze, his heart trembled slightly following his hands.
It seems... a little cute.
"...Is your friend not here?" Sheng Yuhang slowly looked away and said, "I invite you out to eat."
"He likes to play, but he seldom comes to live with me." Xiao Chuyi was talking, and it took a while before he realized, "You want to treat me to dinner?"
"En." Sheng Yuhang nodded, knowingly asked, "Are you free?"
"Yes, but yes..." But isn't the frequency of invites to dinner too high recently?
Ever since Zhou Xiao came, Sheng Yuhang didn't know which string of compassion and kindness had been aroused, and he was either treating Xiao Chuyi to dinner or on the way to treat Xiao Chuyi to dinner all day long.
Xiao Chuyi has no objection to this, cooking is indeed a time-consuming task, and occasionally he wants to be lazy.
However, because of this, Xiao Chuyi's time spent with Sheng Yuhang has been increasing exponentially recently.
Originally, they might just get along for a while after get off work, but now they might even eat lunch together on weekdays.
I don't know how Sheng Yuhang, a big boss who manages so many things every day, suddenly fell in love with the school cafeteria.
Getting along with Sheng Yuhang is certainly not an unpleasant thing, but if there are too many times, even if the opposite is a real Virgin, it will make people feel that something is wrong.
Xiao Chuyi was silent for a moment, then swallowed back the last sentence in a daze.
He glanced behind Sheng Yuhang and asked, "Where's Sheng Jianghe?"
Recently, the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Sheng family have returned to work after vacation, and Sheng Jianghe was naturally sent back to his uncle.
It didn't make sense for the two of them to go to dinner together and leave a child at home.
Sheng Yuhang didn't change his face, but still smiled gently: "He went to Ziyue's house to study math problems."
Xiao Chuyi: "..." This is the most nonsensical reason he has heard this year.
At the same time, An Ziyue's family.
Holding the math book, An Ziyue shouted dissatisfiedly at Sheng Jianghe who was lying on the bed: "Why did you come to my house to eat again? Isn't Teacher Xiao taking care of your meals?"
She had tried not to sound so jealous. 0.2.2.3.
Unfortunately, it was not very successful.
But what was even stranger was Sheng Jianghe's reaction.
If it was normal, Sheng Jianghe would have raised his tail to the sky long ago, flirting with her with a mean face.
However, this time, Sheng Jianghe just glanced at An Ziyue faintly, then turned around silently, and let out a long sigh.
"In the future, Mr. Xiao will not be my own Mr. Xiao. I am sacrificing my small self to fulfill my big self, temporarily giving up the small profit in front of me for the sake of a longer-term future..."
Cheng Sijia, who was listening on the sidelines, was at a loss: "Jianghe, what are you going to do?"
An Ziyue pursed her lips, taking it for granted, "Scarlett, please ignore him, it's just that he has suffered from the second illness."
Sheng Jianghe sighed even more sadly, while gently stroking the limited edition game console he just got, while putting on a deep expression.
"You are still young, and you don't understand the filth of adults."
The author has something to say: Sand Sculpture Theater
Teacher Xiao: I like it but I dare not say it, and I still have a little inferiority complex, so just wait, maybe you will get farther and farther away from the other party after waiting, so you don’t have to worry about it (Decadent and Depressed.jpg)
Mr. Sheng: Just wait, I'll run over to kiss you right away [Fog]
Xiao Chuyi was a little funny, it was obviously Zhou Xiao who kept asking, but when he told the truth, the other party didn't seem to believe it.
Probably because he felt that what he said was too light, but it didn't show any weight.
But this is indeed not a lie.

Zhou Xiao sighed again as she spoke, not knowing how to explain it, so she could only say lazily: "But no matter what you want to do, I will definitely support you."
"I know." Xiao Chuyi smiled at him, "Thank you."
Xiao Chuyi's eyebrows and eyes were curved, with a hint of tenderness.
Zhou Xiao felt inexplicably hot, subconsciously looked away, and touched the top of her hair embarrassingly.
This is the trust he encountered without any impurities.
Ordinary people's impression of Zhou Xiao is that he is unreliable, even his own parents don't expect anything from him, they just hope that he won't get into a catastrophe.

Of course, outsiders also think so, including the former Xiao Chuyi.
When Xiao Yuze joined the company, the original owner had just faced the college entrance examination.
Although the original owner is a little arrogant, he is generally a standard top student. With his grades, he can definitely enter the best university in city A, which is also one of the world's famous universities.
And most of the children of rich families in City A will choose to stay in City A. The heirs have been helping the family since college, and those who are fooling around, such as Zhou Xiao and others, will stay in their own. Eat, drink and have fun on the ground.

Thinking about it carefully, although they didn't deal with it much when they were young, in fact, the eldest brother of the Xiao family didn't really do anything to hurt the original owner.
When the original owner left home, the once indifferent elder brother gradually became kind, and the relationship between the two became closer for the first time.
The Xiao family's parents were moved by this for a long time at first, thinking that the two children had finally grown up and they didn't need to worry anymore.
But no one knows that this is just the origin of all tragedies.
If Shen Bixiao was the one who directly killed the original owner and Xiao's parents, then Xiao Yuze was the biggest driving force behind him.
The plot doesn't focus much on the big brother of the Xiao family, and the focus is on the love-hate relationship between Shen Bixiao and the original owner.
But judging from the memory of the dead original owner, when he was tricked by Shen Bixiao into signing the contract, which indirectly caused the Xiao family to face difficulties, Xiao Yuze gradually revealed his ambition.
When the Xiao family reacted, Xiao Yuze had already emptied the Xiao family's property, and even watched the death of his parents who had raised him for more than 20 years without changing his face.
The Xiao family was completely torn up to this point, and soon the original owner was overwhelmed and chose to commit suicide.
Until his death, the original owner didn't know why his eldest brother would do such a thing.
At that time, the original owner was already full of despair, unable to think deeply at all, Xiao Chuyi looked at the original owner's memories from childhood to adulthood, and had some guesses.
In the beginning, the parents of the Xiao family wanted to give the inheritance right to the youngest son—it was just that the youngest son had been hostile and brainwashed by the elder son for many years, so he never thought of asking for the inheritance right at all.
This is extremely rare when the eldest son is not incurably mediocre.
Especially the parents of the Xiao family are not the kind of people who would spoil their children without thinking.
Regardless of other things, Xiao's parents are both good-looking people, the standard male and female beauty, even though they are not young, they are still handsome.
Needless to say, the original owner himself, the standard beauty appearance is almost carved out of the same mold as Xiao's mother.
When the three of them stood together, they didn't need to take the initiative to speak at all, and others could guess that they were a family of three.
And Xiao Yuze's appearance can't be said to be bad, strictly speaking he is also a handsome guy, but compared with the other three, he is not on the same level.
They don't look alike.
When the original owner was a child, he heard his grandmother persuade Xiao's mother to send his eldest brother away. Xiao's mother hesitated several times, but in the end she still refused.
It's just that the original owner was too young at that time to remember these details.
Later, my grandmother passed away due to illness, and this topic was never brought up again.
Do normal people need to send their own eldest son away?
The Xiao family couldn't even afford to support two children, but they only made such a choice for the eldest son.
Then the truth seems to be coming out.
Xiao Chuyi didn't really verify the authenticity of this answer, and there's no need for it, he just needs to know that the target that needs revenge is enough.
On the contrary, Xiao's parents' reaction was faster and more ruthless than he imagined.
But this is not surprising, the two elders who are over fifty years old also worked hard all the way since they were young, and they haven't seen any storms in so many years.
It is not difficult for them to tear away the disguise and see clearly the dark thoughts of a young man who has been carefully protected by them for more than [-] years.
This is also one of the reasons why Xiao Chuyi did not return to City A.
Xiao Yuze's most sorry person is Xiao's father and Xiao's mother. Even if they don't know about it, it is more appropriate for them to seek "justice" by themselves.
And Xiao Chuyi... just need to add another fire at the end.
So when Zhou Xiao asked him what he was going to do with a serious face, Xiao Chuyi just replied with something irrelevant.
"Well, I will go back during the Chinese New Year." Xiao Chuyi replied.
"Didn't I ask you this! Besides, do you want to be broken by your father if you don't go home after the New Year!" Zhou Xiao was a little mad, "I'm talking about your brother! Your brother! A while ago he was spreading rumors outside every day. Are you not angry at all about your rumors?!"
"Well, I'm very angry." Xiao Chuyi nodded.
"You don't look so angry! At least put your smile away! Your brother is cheating on you! Don't you feel it?!"
Zhou Xiao waved his fist angrily, looking more like the victim than Xiao Chuyi.
"Brother Yi, you can't go on mourning any longer! What if uncles and aunts soften their hearts again?!"
"So I'm asking you to help watch him." Xiao Chuyi said calmly, "Don't worry, he won't survive next year."
Infected by Xiao Chuyi's composure, Zhou Xiao also became quiet for a while, and subconsciously straightened her back when she heard the first half of the sentence, feeling as if a mountain called "responsibility" was on her shoulders.
But when he heard the second part of the sentence, his whole body trembled subconsciously, and after a long while he reminded nonchalantly: "...Yi, brother Yi, killing people is against the law...you can't go with yours for the sake of scum." The rest of my life!"
"Who said I'm going to kill him." Xiao Chuyi raised his eyes to look at Zhou Xiao, and smiled very kindly, "Have you never heard of the iron law that the villain will end up on the street for no reason?"
"...Yi, Brother Yi, I think you look more like a villain now..." You laughed so terribly.
Xiao Chuyi swept over with gentle eyes, Zhou Xiao silently covered her mouth.
"What about the second news?" Xiao Chuyi continued to ask.
"This is still related to your unlucky brother." Zhou Xiao rubbed against Xiao Chuyi with a sneaky look, "Let me tell you, last time I went to your house, your parents still shut you down." He's in confinement. I wanted to ask your parents if they had anything to bring you, and then I went to your house, but your parents were not at home, but Aunt Chen, who was cooking, was there, so I stayed for a while. Meal..."
"Speak the key."
"Ahem, the point is, who is your brother on the phone with? I heard the phone ringing, and when I passed by, I saw that the number belonged to City B. Fortunately, I was resourceful and hid before he found out, and then I I heard him mention your name..."
Zhou Xiao's voice became smaller and smaller, but his tone became more and more serious.
"I suspect that he is planning to find someone to beat you up to vent his anger. Brother Yi, you must be more careful recently!"
Xiao Chuyi frowned slightly: "Did you hear his name?"
Zhou Xiao thought about it carefully, and said with some uncertainty: "It seems that his name is Jing Sheng, the surname is not clear, I don't know if it is Lin or Ning, I am afraid he will find out, it is a little far away..."
"I see." Xiao Chuyi interrupted him, "Thank you."
There are not many people with this similar name in the memory of the original owner. If it is accurate within the scope of City B, it will not be too difficult to find.
——Lin Jingsheng.
The original owner's college classmate, if you think about it carefully, seems to be the person who introduced him and Shen Bixiao to each other and became familiar with him at the beginning.
Xiao Chuyi thought for a moment, took out his phone and clicked on a message from a long time ago.
The sender was none other than Lin Jingsheng, and the content was not too strange, it was to confirm whether he would attend the university reunion or not.
It's just that the time of sending the mail happened to be at the time when the original owner was tricked by Shen Bixiao to solicit sponsors for the company everywhere.
He glanced at the date in the text message.
It seems to be a recent thing.
Zhou Xiao couldn't sit still for a few days, and he muttered that living in his house always felt a kind of inexplicable coolness, so he took advantage of this to stay away all day and night.
Xiao Chuyi is not his parents, so he is not too worried about what will happen to such a big adult.
Strictly speaking, Zhou Xiao knows the way better than him, has more friends than him, and is much safer than him when going out.
On weekends when he was not going to work, Xiao Chuyi seldom slept until noon, woke up and looked at the time on his phone in a daze for a long time before opening the door in his pajamas.
Sheng Yuhang was standing outside the door, as if he was about to knock on the door.
"Ms. Xiao." Sheng Yuhang put down his hand hanging in the air, with a gentle smile on his face, "Good morning."
"It's getting late." Xiao Chuyi sighed, "I'm sorry, I slept for too long, have you had breakfast yet?"
"Eat it, and ordered a bowl of noodles."
"What about lunch?"
"Have not eat yet."
"Then wait for me, I'll cook first." Xiao Chuyi rubbed his messy hair, turned around and yawned, and was about to go back, "There should be some food left in the refrigerator."
As soon as Sheng Yuhang reached out, he grabbed his wrist.
Xiao Chuyi turned his head in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Sheng Yuhang's eyes fell on Xiao Chuyi's face, from his messy hair to his slightly confused and watery eyes.
The moment he met the other party's confused gaze, his heart trembled slightly following his hands.
It seems... a little cute.
"...Is your friend not here?" Sheng Yuhang slowly looked away and said, "I invite you out to eat."
"He likes to play, but he seldom comes to live with me." Xiao Chuyi was talking, and it took a while before he realized, "You want to treat me to dinner?"
"En." Sheng Yuhang nodded, knowingly asked, "Are you free?"
"Yes, but yes..." But isn't the frequency of invites to dinner too high recently?
Ever since Zhou Xiao came, Sheng Yuhang didn't know which string of compassion and kindness had been aroused, and he was either treating Xiao Chuyi to dinner or on the way to treat Xiao Chuyi to dinner all day long.
Xiao Chuyi has no objection to this, cooking is indeed a time-consuming task, and occasionally he wants to be lazy.
However, because of this, Xiao Chuyi's time spent with Sheng Yuhang has been increasing exponentially recently.
Originally, they might just get along for a while after get off work, but now they might even eat lunch together on weekdays.
I don't know how Sheng Yuhang, a big boss who manages so many things every day, suddenly fell in love with the school cafeteria.
Getting along with Sheng Yuhang is certainly not an unpleasant thing, but if there are too many times, even if the opposite is a real Virgin, it will make people feel that something is wrong.
Xiao Chuyi was silent for a moment, then swallowed back the last sentence in a daze.
He glanced behind Sheng Yuhang and asked, "Where's Sheng Jianghe?"
Recently, the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Sheng family have returned to work after vacation, and Sheng Jianghe was naturally sent back to his uncle.
It didn't make sense for the two of them to go to dinner together and leave a child at home.
Sheng Yuhang didn't change his face, but still smiled gently: "He went to Ziyue's house to study math problems."
Xiao Chuyi: "..." This is the most nonsensical reason he has heard this year.
At the same time, An Ziyue's family.
Holding the math book, An Ziyue shouted dissatisfiedly at Sheng Jianghe who was lying on the bed: "Why did you come to my house to eat again? Isn't Teacher Xiao taking care of your meals?"
She had tried not to sound so jealous. 0.2.2.3.
Unfortunately, it was not very successful.
But what was even stranger was Sheng Jianghe's reaction.
If it was normal, Sheng Jianghe would have raised his tail to the sky long ago, flirting with her with a mean face.
However, this time, Sheng Jianghe just glanced at An Ziyue faintly, then turned around silently, and let out a long sigh.
"In the future, Mr. Xiao will not be my own Mr. Xiao. I am sacrificing my small self to fulfill my big self, temporarily giving up the small profit in front of me for the sake of a longer-term future..."
Cheng Sijia, who was listening on the sidelines, was at a loss: "Jianghe, what are you going to do?"
An Ziyue pursed her lips, taking it for granted, "Scarlett, please ignore him, it's just that he has suffered from the second illness."
Sheng Jianghe sighed even more sadly, while gently stroking the limited edition game console he just got, while putting on a deep expression.
"You are still young, and you don't understand the filth of adults."
The author has something to say: Sand Sculpture Theater
Teacher Xiao: I like it but I dare not say it, and I still have a little inferiority complex, so just wait, maybe you will get farther and farther away from the other party after waiting, so you don’t have to worry about it (Decadent and Depressed.jpg)
Mr. Sheng: Just wait, I'll run over to kiss you right away [Fog]
