peepers

Shan Jingzhe opened the door with warm milk. Chen Sui was sitting on the bay window talking on the phone with someone. When she heard the door being pushed open, she turned her head and took a look, then turned her head back and continued to listen with a frown. The person on the other end of the phone speaks.

Shan Jingzhe felt strange and didn't have much time to ask now. He took the milk and put it in the cup slot on the low table by the bay window. Then he sat behind her and put his arms around her waist, letting her lean into his arms. He then stretched out his hands to knead her gently. He touched her eyebrows, trying to make her relax.

Chen Sui's originally tense body slowly relaxed, his head tilted back to rest on his shoulder, and the space between his brows gradually relaxed as he kneaded her.

"Uncle, I don't quite understand what you're talking about. My aunt and sister haven't mentioned these things to me. Can you ask them specifically and then check on the situation?"

"Do you think your uncle will lie to you about such a big matter?"

"I dare not, but you also said that for such a big thing, I have to figure out the situation. One hundred thousand is not a small amount, and it is always quite difficult for me. And I believe you will also understand the situation of my return home this time. You know, I have no financial resources during the rest period and I need funds."

Chen Sui paused and continued: "If you really have difficulties over there, I will definitely help you, but before that, please give me some time to understand the specific situation, okay?"

Ye Xiong fell silent and gritted his teeth: "Forget it, it's my uncle who didn't think well. He shouldn't have spoken to a junior like you."

Then he stopped talking and wanted her to continue, but he didn't know what Chen Sui was thinking. He said "no" and then shut up. She didn't answer, and the atmosphere remained deadlocked. In the end, Unable to lose face, Ye Xiong abruptly changed the subject: "How is your health?"

"It's not very good," Chen Sui rarely said polite words: "The doctor said that I injured my body and I have to recover slowly."

Ye Xiong was silent. When it came to this point, he mentioned it overtly or covertly, euphemistically and slickly. He had not let go for so many years. Now he was blaming the reason that her body needed money to support her, which was regarded as a complete rejection. Well, as an elder, he really couldn't bring himself to mention it again.

"It's time to take good care of yourself. My uncle will figure out the money issue by himself. You don't have to ask your aunt and your sister. I...I didn't tell them about it. I thought I could handle it and didn't want to let it go. If they are worried, don’t mention it to them.”

"it is good."

"Then you get busy first, and I'll hang up first."

"Okay, goodbye uncle."

"Goodbye."

It wasn't until the phone hung up that Chen Sui let out a long sigh of relief, and leaned in Shan Jingzhe's arms with relief, rubbing his head against his shoulder.

Shan Jingzhe ruffled her hair in a funny way: "Whose call is this? It's so tiring to deal with it."

"My uncle..." Her voice came muffledly from his ears.

"The one who cheated on me during the New Year?"

"Ah."

"What are we looking for you for?"

"Borrow money."

"He asked you to borrow money?" Shan Jingzhe was a little surprised: "He is an elder, and he asked you, a junior, to borrow money?"

"Um……"

Shan Jingzhe found it difficult to comment: "Then what are your plans?"

Chen Sui raised his head and moved in his arms, finding a comfortable position and lying down again: "I don't know yet. I want to ask Xiaoxuan tomorrow to see if he knows what's going on."

"Why don't you ask aunt?" Shan Jingzhe hugged her, stretched out his hand, took the milk and stuffed it into her hand, letting her drink it.

Chen Sui took a sip and continued: "Before hanging up the phone, he told me not to ask my aunt and sister. He said he was afraid that they would worry and he would find a way to solve it himself."

"Do you believe?"

She pondered for a moment, drank the milk in one breath, and then shook her head: "If you don't believe it, if he really had a way, he wouldn't come to me to talk. Let's understand the situation first."

"Didn't you promise him not to ask? How do you know?"

"I promised not to ask my aunt and sister. I didn't say I wouldn't ask Ye Chengxuan. It's not my fault that he is not strict." Chen Sui acted rogue.

"Hahaha, that makes sense." Shan Jingzhe smiled.

"Are you sleepy? Do you want to sleep?"

Chen Sui raised his waist and said, "It's okay, but I can go wash up first."

"it is good."

After a simple wash, she returned to the room. Shan Jingzhe had already made the bed and waved to her. Chen Sui walked up to him and was tucked into the bed by him. He kissed her forehead as if coaxing a child: "If you are sleepy, just go first." Go to sleep, I’ll be back in a minute.”

Chen Sui's eyes rolled around him, then finally returned to his face and nodded.

Shan Jingzhe pressed the quilt on her before turning off the light and leaving the room. In the darkness, Chen Sui could clearly hear the bathroom door being closed. After a while, there was the sound of water running. She bit her lip and looked at the ceiling, taking a deep breath. After a while, she sat up and turned on the light again. She stood in front of the closet and rummaged for a while. She took out a set of clothes and put them on quickly. As soon as the collar was clicked on, she heard the sound of water stop at the tip of her ears. She was surprised. I was surprised for a moment, and I was a little confused when I grabbed the earmuffs. After thinking about it, I put them on, arranged my clothes, and opened the door.

She turned her head with the sound of the bell, and saw Shan Jingzhe standing at the door with a damp look on her face. When she saw her outfit clearly, her eyes were full of surprise.

Chen Sui seemed to be satisfied with his reaction. He lost his initial hesitation and tilted his head and hooked his hand: "Come here."

When Chen Sui woke up, the sun outside was so bright. She blinked several times before she completely opened her groggy eyes. Shan Jingzhe was no longer there. She sat up from the bed. Except for her waist being a little sore, everything else was fine. She yawned lazily. , the quilt slipped from her body, her cheeks turned red.

I don't know where Shan Jingzhe's bad taste came from. After taking a bath last night, he just took out a new set of pajamas for her to change into. She was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, so she didn't stop him and asked him to change them for her. He took off his clothes, hugged her and fell asleep together. When he was drowsy in the morning, he could still feel that this person was messing around for a while before getting up, and then she turned over and fell asleep again.

She looked at the time and saw that it was almost noon, so she didn't stay in bed anymore. She found a set of normal pajamas and changed out of them. When she left the room, she saw a small pot of millet porridge on the dining table in the living room, and a Zhang Jianli next to it. Sticker, she walked over and picked it up to read, Shan Jingzhe's handwriting: Baby, I went to work to make money to support the family~ Remember to drink porridge, I love you mua~
Chen Sui smiled and went into the bathroom in a good mood. After washing up, he put the slightly cold millet porridge back on the stove to heat it. While stirring the porridge, he took his mobile phone to reply to Shan Jingzhe's message.

—Shan Jingzhe: Are you awake?
—Yuyama: Yeah, yeah.

—Shan Jingzhe: Have you eaten?
- Xishan: In the hot porridge.

—Shan Jingzhe: Do you feel any discomfort?

— Xishan: No.

—Shan Jingzhe: That’s good. I forgot about your current physical condition. We were uproarious until midnight last night. I was really afraid that your body wouldn’t be able to bear it.

Chen Sui's face turned red when he thought about last night, and even redder when he thought that he was the one who took the initiative last night.

After changing the topic and chatting for a few more words, the two parties stopped talking. Chen Sui sat at the dining table with a bowl of porridge, feeding it into his mouth in small sips, while typing to send it to Ye Chengxuan.

—Xishan: Xiaoxuan.

—Bai Ye Xuanyin: Sister, are you back?
—Yishan: I just came back yesterday. Have you eaten?

—Bai Yexuanyin: No, it will be a while before we get off work for dinner.

— Xi Shan: That’s right.

—Yuyama: You have a lunch break, right?
—Bai Yexuanyin: Yes, yes.

-Yishan: Let’s do it later. Call me during your lunch break. I have something to ask you. —Bai Yexuanyin: Oh, okay.

Chen Sui turned off his mobile phone, took the remaining porridge in the bowl and put it into his mouth. He cleaned up the kitchen and dining table before sitting on the carpet in the living room with his laptop in his arms.

Her excuse to come back to work was actually not an excuse. She had a manuscript due in the next two days, and the time was actually quite tight. Fortunately, she had collected all the information before asking for leave, so she could catch up.

Ye Chengxuan's phone call relieved her eyes from burying themselves in front of the screen. Chen Sui took off her blue light glasses, rubbed her brows, and answered the call.

"Hello? Xiaoxuan."

"Sister, have you eaten yet?"

"Eat, have you eaten?"

"I also ate."

"Okay, how is your job now?"

"Work..." Ye Chengxuan paused: "That's it, it's okay."

Chen Sui was just being polite. She didn't have the energy to worry about what was going on with Jiang Ci and the intern girl now, so she just exchanged a few words and went straight to the topic.

"Did something happen at home during this time?"

"What could be the matter?" Ye Chengxuan laughed, "Besides, you just came back from home, don't you know what's going on best?"

Chen Sui yawned: "Then why did your dad ask me to borrow money?"

Ye Chengxuan was quiet for a moment, then jumped up in the next second: "What did you say?" Then he must have disturbed others and apologized hurriedly: "Sorry, sorry..."

Then he moved to a quiet place: "Sister, you said my dad asked you to borrow money? Did you borrow it?"

"No, I said I wanted to ask my aunt about her situation, but he said nothing. He didn't ask me to borrow it, and he didn't let me ask my aunt."

"That's good." Ye Chengxuan breathed a sigh of relief, hesitated and continued: "This matter is quite complicated. I don't know much. I only know that my dad is online and he stole my mother's penis some time ago. The gold is sold..."

"...That's probably it." Ye Chengxuan told her everything he knew: "Don't you feel that the atmosphere at home is weird when you go back this time?"

Chen Sui leaned on the sofa and raised his head, feeling depressed: "I didn't pay much attention, I didn't even live at home."

"Oh." Ye Chengxuan thought she was staying at her uncle's house and didn't ask any more questions.

"In short, you can't borrow this money, no matter what he tells you, you can't borrow it. My dad and my mom are in a divorce lawsuit. My dad is the fault party. My mom wants to let my dad clean up and leave the house. "

"Is it that serious?"

"He told you to keep half, but you may not know that he misappropriated the factory's capital chain. The money has not been paid back, and the wages have almost not been paid. It was my mother who found a way to fill this hole. For this reason He owes a lot of foreign debts, so asking him to leave the house is the lightest thing. Embezzling public funds is a serious crime. After he leaves the house, he will have to stay there for several years."

Chen Sui stopped talking.

"He borrowed money from you, probably because he wanted to run away." At this point, Ye Chengxuan's voice became a little deeper.

Chen Sui took a deep breath: "Xuan."

"Ang, sister?"

"Be a good person. We can't do anything illegal or that touches the bottom line of morality."

Ye Chengxuan knew that the last sentence was referring to him, and he suddenly felt anxious and panicked: "I know, I can't do it anymore."

"Well, let's have dinner together later."

"it is good."

"Well, take care of yourself."

"Yeah, so are you, sister."

"Ah."

Chen Sui hung up the phone, feeling his head hurt. He looked at his balance, thought about it, and transferred 2 yuan to Ye Chengxuan's card without hesitation.

- Xishan: I just transferred money to your aunt. I will transfer 1 regularly in the future. I looked at your current salary at work and the scholarships currently awarded to you by the school. Can you transfer it home? It's almost this amount. After you become a regular employee, you can add some and transfer it together. Don't tell your aunt that I transferred it. Transfer it in your own name.

—Bai Ye Xuanyin: Sister, no need, besides, you have to live your own life.

- Xishan: Be obedient, I still have some money. With your current salary, just support yourself first. I can take care of myself, don’t worry.

—Bai Ye Xuanyin: Well, if you are short of money, you must tell me.

— Xishan: Good.

Chen Sui gave a few more instructions before turning off his phone. He got up from the carpet, took the water glass and poured a glass of water. Then he came back and sat down. He patted his face and took two deep breaths to cheer himself up: "It will get better." Yes! Come on and make money!" Then he got back to work.

She would always forget the time when she was busy. After she finished the manuscript, she glanced at the time. It was already evening and the sky was dark. She was secretly startled and opened Shan Jingzhe's chat box: Are you off work?What to eat?I'll do it.

After waiting for a while, there was no reply. Chen Sui turned off his phone, sorted out the manuscript, packaged it and sent it to Party A. He stood up and moved around, went into the kitchen, looked in the refrigerator, and started tinkering with the existing dishes. , when she came out again, it was already dark. She wiped her hands that were full of water drops, turned on the light, picked up her phone and took a look. Shan Jingzhe replied to her: Baby, you eat first, I have to work overtime, Luo My sister said that I had asked for a few days off and was in urgent need of help, so she refused to let me go home.

Three crying emoticons were added at the end, and Chen Sui smiled: Work is important, you should be busy first, and pay attention to rest.

-Shan Jingzhe: Well, you eat first, don’t wait for me, don’t worry, I’ll rush back as soon as I’m done with my work.

- Xishan: No rush, you go to work first, don't worry about me, I can do it myself.

-Shan Jingzhe: Okay.

Chen Sui put away his mobile phone and returned to the kitchen. He wrapped the ingredients he had just processed with plastic wrap and put them back in the refrigerator. He reheated the millet porridge that he had not finished eating at noon and filled his stomach. After cleaning it up, he took it and changed it. I put my clothes in the bathroom, finished everything, sat down on the carpet in the living room and started working again.

Shan Jingzhe came back very late. He sent a message to Chen Sui but received no reply. He thought she had already fallen asleep and went home very lightly. When the door opened, he was surprised by the bright lights in the living room. He put on his shoes and walked in. , Chen Sui fell asleep with his head tilted on the coffee table, not missing the sound of someone coming back. Shan Jingzhe sighed helplessly, while taking off his chilly coat, he walked over and bent down to hug the person. Bedroom walk.

Chen Sui groaned in a daze and spoke with half-open eyes: "Are you back? Have you eaten?"

"Well, after eating, why don't you go back to your room to sleep if you're sleepy? What if you're cold?"

Chen Sui shook his head: "The heating hasn't stopped yet, it's not cold."

"Okay," Shan Jingzhe coaxed her who couldn't open her eyes, and gently put her on the bed: "It's not cold, go to sleep."

Chen Sui nodded confusedly, held his face and kissed him randomly, said good night, turned his head and fell asleep.

Shan Jingzhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he kissed her face, said good night, straightened up and went out quietly.
