Chapter 34 I feel sorry for you

The noodle soup in the pot boiled again, making a gurgling sound.

The milky white mist curled up, soaking half of Gu Yanci's face to become wet.

In a trance, he felt that Li Mianmian's voice was like this mist, and the other half of his face was also stained with moisture.

The room seemed a little silent.

Li Mianmian didn't dare to look at him, and lowered her eyes, she could see the rise and fall of her chest when her breathing accelerated.

Moving his gaze forward a little bit, Gu Yanci's chest was calm, as if he was not breathing at all.

Can't tell which of the two is more nervous.

After a while, she bit her lip—the calf began to tingle.

Gu Yanci finally spoke: "Are you really that scared?"

His voice was very deep, vaguely hoarse.

"Ok!"

Li Mianmian nodded repeatedly, took the opportunity to put her feet down, and said incessantly: "Think about it, if I want to drink a glass of water at night in such a big house, when I come out, it's dark and quiet outside, and there's no sound, isn't it scary? "

Gu Yanci: "Even if I live here, there will be no sound at night."

"Aren't you breathing?" Li Mianmian asked immediately.

"..." Gu Yanci laughed, "Can you still hear me breathing?"

"My ears are very good!" Li Mianmian said, "And don't argue with me, you know that this is not comparable at all. Even if there is no sound, as long as I know you are in the house, I feel very at ease!"

Gu Yanci looked at her for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay."

He was so straightforward, but Li Mianmian was stunned: "Ah? You... this, this agrees?"

"if not?"

"...Oh." Li Mianmian said in a low voice, "I thought I had to grind with you for a while..."

"I don't have hobbies that waste time."

Gu Yanci sighed, and said helplessly, "When will my brother beat you?"

Li Mianmian chuckled and rubbed her face in embarrassment.

Not long after, Gu Yanci made dinner.

He said it was a simple cooking of Yangchun noodles, but in fact he fried two more eggs later, and paid off a portion of fried shrimp.

The two sat at the table facing each other. As soon as Gu Yanci picked up the chopsticks, the mobile phone next to him kept ringing, and people sent messages one after another.

He picked up his phone and quickly browsed through it. After a quick bite of noodles, he took out two pieces of paper and stood up and said, "Brother still has something to do, so I have to go first. Just put the bowl on the table after you finish eating, and I'll clean it up when I come back."

"Ah?" Li Mianmian also stood up, "But you're not full..."

"It's okay, I'll buy something to eat when I'm free later."

He walked to the door and opened the door, stood in the entrance to change his shoes, and said uneasy: "Don't go out at night, if you need something, send a message, and my brother will bring it back for you."

"Brother." Li Mianmian grabbed the door frame and asked, "When are you coming back?"

"Not sure." Gu Yanci straightened up and smiled at her, "Rest early, don't wait for me."

"Oh." Li Mianmian nodded.

The elevator automatically went up when the door was opened, and it had already stopped at the 26th floor.

Gu Yanci pressed the down button, the elevator door opened, he walked in, and gestured "go back quickly" to her.

Li Mianmian looked at him, and suddenly remembered something: "Hey, brother, you..."

The elevator door closed.

She felt a little empty for no reason, and stood there for a while before returning to the room.

After eating, Li Mianmian packed the dishes and put them in the dishwasher.

She didn't pour out the remaining half of Gu Yanci's bowl of noodles, and left some shrimp in the bowl, covered it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator.

When he said that he bought something to eat, he probably didn't eat it.In this regard, Li Mianmian was completely skeptical of him.

After finishing these, Li Mianmian went to look around the room again.

In the afternoon, I was only busy tidying up the master bedroom, and I didn't have time to take a good look at the other rooms.

After walking around like this, she realized that Gu Yanci did not remove all her belongings, but put them in boxes and put them in the storage room.

Thinking about it, he couldn't move all these things into the company.

Li Mianmian dragged these boxes to the bedroom next to the master bedroom, and decided to tidy them up.

She originally planned to return the master bedroom to Gu Yanci, but when she saw that the other bedrooms were also suites, and there was nothing missing except for a smaller cloakroom, even the bathtub was of the same size, so she didn't bother to change it.

Even if he changed back, he would probably have to be nagged by Gu Yanci, if he moved out again for such a trivial matter, the gain would outweigh the loss.

Gu Yanci didn't have many things, mainly some clothes and a few books.

Li Mianmian used to think that he was a bit ruthless, but looking at it this way, he really is.

Although there were few things, she organized them very carefully. All the clothes were sorted out and hung up, and if there were any unevenness, she simply ironed them.

Speaking of which, this was her first time ironing clothes, and she had only watched Lan Qingwan do it before.

I learned to operate it by memory, and it was not particularly difficult.

There was a small box at the bottom of the clothes box. Li Mianmian opened the lid and took a look, then quickly closed it again.

- It's underwear...

With a blushing face, she stuffed the box into the closet, instantly lost her previous leisurely mood, dragged the empty box, and ran out of the bedroom.

It was almost eleven o'clock after washing, but Gu Yanci hadn't come back yet, nor sent her a message.

Li Mianmian lay on the bed and found a movie to watch on his mobile phone. At first he was able to hold his eyelids, but then he fell asleep unconsciously.

She woke up suddenly in the middle of the night, remembering that she hadn't taken off her earphones or turned off the movie.

I turned on my phone and saw that it was 03:30 in the morning, and the movie had already ended.

Gu Yanci still hasn't sent her a message.

Li Mianmian turned on the bedside lamp after laying his corpse on the bed in a daze for a while, turned over and sat up.

She really didn't expect that Gu Yanci would work so late.

And why didn't you send her a message?
Is it because you are too busy, or because it is too late and you don't want to disturb her?
Or, was it because something had happened to him?

The more Li Mianmian thought about it, the more worried she became. She picked up her phone and sent a message to Gu Yanci while walking outside.

As soon as he walked into the living room, before he had time to turn on the light, he saw something light up, vaguely reflecting the figure lying horizontally on the sofa.

He is back?

Li Mianmian walked lightly to the side of the sofa and looked down.

It turned out to be Gu Yanci's cell phone, which suddenly lit up after receiving her message just now.

She knelt down, unlocked the screen of her mobile phone, and shone a faint light on Gu Yanci's face.

For some reason, he also frowned in his sleep, as if in great pain.

"Brother?" Li Mianmian called softly.

Gu Yanci did not respond.

Worried that he would fall into a nightmare, she raised her voice and called again: "Brother."

Gu Yanci's eyelids moved.

Li Mianmian pursed her lips, stretched out her hand cautiously, and poked him on the face: "Brother, wake up."

The next second, he opened his eyes, his eyes were sharp and vigilant.

Li Mianmian was startled: "...brother?"

Hearing the voice, Gu Yanci came back to his senses, and slowly sat up from the sofa: "Why don't you turn on the light?"

"I was afraid of waking you up just now." Li Mianmian said, "But I saw that you were feeling very uncomfortable, so I woke you up anyway."

Gu Yanci made a hoarse "hmm".

Li Mianmian stared at him: "Brother."

"what?"

"You hurt me so much." Li Mianmian shook the fingers he was holding.

"..."

Gu Yanci flicked his hand away as if being scalded.

Li Mianmian rubbed her fingers and asked, "Did you have a nightmare?"

After two seconds of silence, Gu Yan responded, "Yes."

Li Mianmian looked at him suspiciously: "Cheat me."

"I have found a pattern. Every time you lie to me, you will be silent for a while. You also have a bad conscience, don't you?"

Li Mianmian supported the sofa, straightened up and leaned over: "Are you feeling unwell?"

Another subconscious silence, Gu Yanci: "No."

Li Mianmian snorted.

Gu Yanci: "..."

"Where is it uncomfortable?" Li Mianmian raised her hand to touch his forehead, "Do you have a fever?"

This time Gu Yanci did not hesitate: "No."

"What's the matter?" Li Mianmian thought for a while, "Stomach pain?"

"..."

"Okay." She stood up, "I knew you would definitely not eat properly."

Gu Yanci quibbled: "...Occasionally."

Li Mianmian had already turned on the light in the living room, and walked towards the kitchen: "I left the noodles you didn't finish eating, just because my stomach hurts and I should eat some noodles."

She put the noodles into the microwave, and when she looked back, Gu Yanci was standing at the door of the kitchen at some point.

"Why are there still shrimps left?" He asked, "Isn't it delicious?"

"It's delicious!" Li Mianmian said angrily, "I kept it for myself as a supper!"

Gu Yanci pursed his lips and smiled.

"Why didn't you send me a message when you came back?" Li Mianmian immediately asked, "Aren't you afraid that I'm worried?"

"It's too late, I thought you couldn't see." Gu Yan said softly, "I didn't expect you to wake up in the middle of the night."

Li Mianmian: "I just woke up from a nightmare dreaming that you were kidnapped!"

Gu Yanci laughed again.

Li Mianmian glared at him, and continued to ask: "Then why are you still sleeping in the living room when you come back? I also cleaned up the bedroom for you."

"Afraid of waking you up, I just fell asleep on the sofa." Gu Yanci said, "Anyway, I have to get up again in a few hours."

"You..." Li Mianmian stomped her feet heavily, and said angrily, "If I knew it, I wouldn't have cleaned it up for you!"

"I'm sorry." Gu Yanci said sincerely, "Brother is wrong."

Li Mianmian didn't reply, and when the microwave dinged, she turned her head and took out the bowl, then walked out of the kitchen beside him without looking at him, rubbing her shoulders.

Gu Yanci turned around and saw that she didn't go to the dining room, but went straight to the living room.

After he sat on the sofa again, Li Mianmian handed him the bowl, then knelt sideways beside him, facing him.

"Can you stop doing this in the future?"

After a pause, she whispered, "I will feel guilty too."

Gu Yanci paused the hand holding the chopsticks: "What?"

"Obviously the master bedroom is similar to other bedrooms, why do you have to give it to me? You lived in it well before." Li Mianmian said, "And what happened tonight... no, it's a lot of things, anyway, you I know, I don’t want to talk next to each other.”

"..."

Gu Yanci was quiet for a long time, then suddenly put the bowl back on the coffee table, looked at her and asked, "Is this not good?"

Li Mianmian pursed her mouth: "What's so good about this..."

"Haven't I always been like this? You've never said anything bad before."

Perhaps because of the stomachache, Gu Yanci's face turned pale, and his expression became more and more gloomy: "It's not good to say this now, do you think I'm annoying?"

"..."

Li Mianmian was very confused: "How did you come here?"

"Only when the relationship is close enough will you be able to accept each other's care with peace of mind, just like we used to..."

After a pause, Gu Yanci suddenly bent his lips as if mocking himself: "Yes, you have grown up, and you don't have to rely on me like you used to."

"...You are really wrong."

Li Mianmian ground her teeth, wishing she could scratch him twice.

"I didn't mention it before because I was too young and didn't know how to love others. Now that I'm grown up and sensible, I love you, you know? Can you think a little bit like a normal person?"

"...you feel sorry for me?"

Li Mianmian said loudly: "Yes! Can't you!"

"..."

Gu Yanci lowered his eyes and remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Li Mianmian scratched her hair irritably, then put down her hands helplessly.

"Forget it." She picked up the bowl and muttered, "You must have a stomach ache and feel confused...It's rare to be so honest, so it's a good thing...At least let me know that you still like me to rely on you..."

She turned the chopsticks and rolled the noodles twice, put the bowl under his chin, poked the tip of the chopsticks to his lips: "Open your mouth."

"..."

Gu Yanci raised his eyes and looked at her with a complicated expression.

"Look at me?" Li Mianmian said with a straight face, "Didn't you put down the bowl to ask me to feed you?"

"..."

Gu Yanci endured it for a long while before saying, "Are you mocking me now?"

"Why am I mocking you?"

Li Mianmian approached him and said word by word: "I am, angry, angry. Can't you see it?"

"..."

Gu Yanci looked at her for a while, not knowing what to say, so he took the bowl.

He seemed to have been blocked by Li Mianmian tonight, and he was still unable to fight back.

The stomach hurts so much that he can't even turn his mind.

Gu Yanci decided to give up resistance for the time being, picked up a shrimp and was about to eat it, but was stopped by Li Mianmian: "Hey, I said the shrimp is mine. You have a stomachache, so you can't eat shrimp."

As she spoke, she suddenly leaned over and opened her mouth to hold the shrimp.

Gu Yanci saw her bright red lips gently brushing against the tip of the chopsticks, and his wrist couldn't help shaking.

Li Mianmian was still complaining: "What are you doing, you almost poked me..."

Gu Yanci rolled his Adam's apple slightly, put down the bowl, got up and left.

Li Mianmian grabbed the hem of his clothes: "Where are you going?"

Gu Yanci: "Take the chopsticks."

"You have a cleanliness?" Li Mianmian said immediately, "I didn't realize it before."

"..." Gu Yanci took a deep breath, "No."

"Oh." Li Mianmian said, "Then you just dislike me."

"...I was afraid that you would despise me."

After a few seconds of silence, Gu Yanci sat down again: "That's fine."

Li Mianmian: "?"

"Finish your shrimp first." Gu Yanci stuffed the chopsticks into her hands, "Eat quickly, it will be cold in a while."

"Oh."

Li Mianmian was worried that it would be bad for his stomach if it got cold, so he couldn't care less about other things. He ate up the shrimp in two or three bites, then put the chopsticks on the bowl, and returned the bowl to him.

Gu Yanci did not answer.

He picked up the chopsticks casually, and in this posture, picked up the noodles and took a small bite, and even licked the tip of the chopsticks.

"..."

Li Mianmian's ears instantly turned red.

Gu Yanci raised his eyes to look at her, and raised the corner of his mouth teasingly: "Are you still saying that I despise you?"
