Chapter 36
Chapter 35 – 35
?? When Bai Xiying woke up, the sky outside the window was already dark.
?? She stared in confusion, her brain was not fully awake because she had slept for too long, and she felt uncomfortable like being forced into paste.
?? There is also a little discomfort on the side of the neck.
??Bai Xiying touched her neck with her backhand, sat up slowly, moved her neck from side to side, and when she got used to it, she was completely awake.
??Is it not yet dawn?
??Bai Xiying looked at the black world and thought consciously.
?? Immediately afterwards she realized that it might already be night.
?? At this moment, a rustling sound came from the crack of the door that was not closed tightly.
The sharpness in Bai Xiying’s eyes flashed. She lifted the quilt, took out a dagger from the quilt under the pillow, and slowly opened the door with her bare feet against the wall.
??The warm yellow chandelier on the ceiling of the living room is on duty dedicatedly, and it seems that someone is cooking in the open kitchen.
??Bai Xiying was taken aback.
?? Looking at the familiar figure from behind, she suddenly realized that Lin Xingzhu also had the key to the apartment.
?? Quietly put the dagger back in place, Bai Xiying didn’t forget to put on her shoes again before going out.
?? “Why are you here?” she asked.
?? Lin Xingzhu turned around when he heard the voice, “Are you awake?”
?? When she said this, she felt a little guilty in her heart.
??Bai Xiying nodded, watching Lin Xingzhu wear the bear apron she bought and was cutting vegetables with a kitchen knife.
?? “Yes, I slept for a long time this time.” Bai Xiying said, “It’s outrageous. I actually took away the time I slept last night and slept for a whole day.”
?? Although she didn’t fall asleep until almost dawn last night, it is quite outrageous to have slept the whole day.
?? Lin Xingzhu turned his back to her and pretended to be serious about chopping vegetables. She didn’t dare to say that she should have woken up in the afternoon, but she was beaten again and passed out, so she didn’t wake up until now.
??Bai Xiying just checked her phone when she went back to put on her shoes. Sure enough, she had turned on silent mode before she knew it. The last few calls displayed in the dozen or so missed calls were all from Lin Xingzhu.
??As for the series of missed calls marked in red above belonging to Mu Muqing, she selectively ignored them.
??So it must be Lin Xingzhu who found out that she couldn’t be contacted, so he took out the spare key to find her.
??Thinking of this, Bai Xiying’s eyes softened slightly: “I made you worry.”
?? Lin Xingzhu hurriedly said that it was okay, then put the prepared vegetables aside in an orderly manner, and began to blanch the hard vegetables she just bought tonight.
??The cut black-bone chicken was blanched in water to remove the blood, and then scalded in boiling water for a few minutes, then removed and cleaned. After finishing these, Lin Xingzhu put the pitted red dates, **** slices, astragalus and other seasonings together with the black-bone chicken. The pot starts to boil soup.
??Bai Xiying just sat by the door frame like that, staring at every movement of Lin Xingzhu without blinking.
??The apron she bought for herself fit Lin Xingzhu very well, as if it was tailor-made. For the convenience of movement, Lin Xingzhu’s long black hair was **** high, but the occasional broken hair fluttering in front of her forehead made her entire profile look tender and tender.
??For a moment, Bai Xiying seemed to be dreaming back to the morning when she and Lin Xingzhu first met.
??The steam from the mellow soy milk blurred her delicate eyebrows and eyes, just like every ordinary morning, warm and natural.
??Bai Xiying didn’t hate drinking soy milk, not to mention that she had already smelled the sweetness under the mellow soy milk. It was a cup of soy milk that Lin Xingzhu specially added sugar to.
??But when she looked at Lin Xingzhu, who was so gentle and familiar, Bai Xiying at that time only felt it was extremely dazzling.
?? But now seeing the same warm and refreshing scene again, she couldn’t help but want to get closer?
??Bai Xiying drew her fingers together, leaving traces of nails on the door frame.
??The absurdity of last night seemed to reappear. Bai Xiying pressed her fist against the door frame, panting lightly, calming down the complicated emotions in her heart.
After a while, the scent of black-bone chicken began to linger on the tip of her nose. Bai Xiying sniffed it lightly. She had recovered and asked doubtfully, “Why did you think of stewing black-bone chicken soup tonight?”
??She remembered that she didn’t have this food in her refrigerator, so this black-bone chicken must have been brought by Lin Xingzhu herself or bought temporarily.
??Lin Xingzhu: “…”
??The old doctor’s murmurs echoed uncontrollably in her mind. Even Lin Xingzhu himself didn’t know why he took those words to heart, so he specially called a door-to-door delivery service and bought this Only good black chicken.
?? “…Maybe it’s because you need to mend it.” After struggling for a moment, Lin Xingzhu said with difficulty.
??Bai Xiying: “Tick it up? I’m in pretty good health.”
??Lin Xingzhu gave her a complicated look.
??She didn’t intend to hide this matter from Bai Xiying from the beginning. After all, the doctor said that her body was weak. For the sake of her body, it is very necessary for Bai Xiying to know her physical condition and pay attention to nourishing it afterwards. .
??Bai Xiying suddenly had a very bad feeling.
?? Lin Xingzhu coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and turned half sideways, as if this could reduce the embarrassment of facing the scene of catching the horse.
?? “When I came in the afternoon, I noticed that you looked very hot. I was worried that you had a fever, so I took you to the hospital.” Lin Xingzhu’s eyes wandered, and his low voice said something that was not low-key at all, ” The doctor said that you are not sick, but that you are a little weak and may need to be replenished.”
??After relaying the doctor’s abridged version, Lin Xingzhu heaved a sigh of relief.
??She really didn’t want to know why Bai Xiying was so weak, probably because of her poor health.
??As for what the doctor said about “temperance” and “restraint”, just treat it as a gust of wind and don’t pay too much attention to it.
??Bai Xiying’s face suddenly turned red, and after Lin Xingzhu finished speaking, it gradually turned blue.
?? She dared to conclude that what Lin Xingzhu said must have been cut. As for the uncut version, Bai Xiying gritted her teeth and could already guess what the doctor said.
??But the culprit who caused her indulgence last night was completely ignorant!
??Lin Xingzhu couldn’t help being amazed at the other party’s discoloration process.
??It turns out that when the emotions are in place, people can really change the color of the face visible to the naked eye.
??She turned her back and put the washed goji berries into the boiling hot pot with a guilty conscience, when she suddenly heard Bai Xiying call out to herself.
?? “Thank you for your concern.”
??Bai Xiying gritted her teeth when she said these words.
?? Lin Xingzhu shuddered suddenly, “It’s all right.”
?? She stared at Bai Xiying’s oppressive gaze, then lifted the lid of the pot to look at the stewed soup, swallowed to avoid sight and said, “Look, I bought a big black-bone chicken and stewed it in a pot soup.”
Noticing the change in Bai Xiying’s eyes, Lin Xingzhu showed his full acting skills, and smiled wryly: “Isn’t it because the old doctor also showed me and said that I was too vain, really too vain, very vain You need to make up for it!”
?? “The stewed black-bone chicken with red dates, astragalus, and wolfberry tonight, we are responsible for eliminating it.”
??Bai Xiying clenched her fingertips.
?? “Really?” She asked lightly, “Let’s not talk about this first, why don’t I remember that I went to the hospital today? Did I sleep so dead?”
?? Another death problem.
??Lin Xingzhu just wanted to say that it was indeed the case, but the next second she noticed that Bai Xiying seemed to be touching the back of her own neck inadvertently.
??Lin Xingzhu: “…”
?? so sharp?
?? At that time, she knocked her out completely with clever strength, and deliberately controlled the strength so that Bai Xiying would never feel great pain afterwards.
??Bai Xiying touched the strange spot on the side of her neck, half smiling.
?? Lin Xingzhu raised a harmless smile, “Well, it’s actually because you were not honest when I carried you to the hospital, and you kept moving while sleeping. For the sake of traffic safety, I made this decision.”
??After Lin Xingzhu said this, he turned around, and while lifting the lid of the pot, he muttered: “It’s still good to go to the hospital, otherwise how would we know that both of us have something wrong with our bodies? We’re both too weak and need to be mended!”
??Bai Xiying almost laughed angrily seeing her blatantly avoiding the topic.
??But she really didn’t have this memory, and Lin Xingzhu’s words also proved that the reason why she slept so dead must be her hands and feet.
??I don’t understand, and Bai Xiying doesn’t think about it anymore. Anyway, I can be sure that Lin Xingzhu didn’t mean to harm her, nor did she mean to take advantage of her.
What’s more, the soup stewed by Lin Xingzhu is really fragrant.
??Bai Xiying went to wash her hands, and then came to help Lin Xingzhu wash the dishes and get things in the kitchen.
?? Lin Xingzhu has eaten at this dining table many times, and she sat in her own seat with ease, while Bai Xiying was still sitting across from her as usual.
?? A bowl of warm and fragrant black-bone chicken soup, accompanied by stewed extremely rotten meat, Lin Xingzhu was very satisfied.
??She drank a bowl, and just put down the bowl when she saw Bai Xiying, who was drinking soup, glanced at herself lightly.
??”…What’s wrong?”
?? Bai Xiying smiled, “Didn’t you say it’s empty? Just one bowl is enough.”
?? As she spoke, she picked up Lin Xingzhu’s bowl and refilled another bowl for her.
??Lin Xingzhu: “…”
?? Lifting a rock and shooting yourself in the foot This wave is true.
?? But facing Bai Xiying’s rippling water-colored eyes, Lin Xingzhu found that he couldn’t refuse.
??She took a deep breath, and buried her head in her chopsticks again.
?? Fortunately, Bai Xiying also seemed to know her physical condition, so Lin Xingzhu took the initiative to refill the second bowl without asking.
??After it was completely over, Lin Xingzhu was already full. Seeing that there was still less than half of the soup left in the pot, she sighed leisurely.
?? And why are you so impatient? It doesn’t have to start tonight if you want to replenish your body. I drank two big bowls sinfully. How can I spend the energy in my body at night?
??Bai Xiying took a bowl of the remaining soup and put it in the refrigerator, then put the chopsticks of two people into the dishwasher and started washing.
??They seem to have formed a wordless tacit understanding, one cooks and the other cleans, and the match is very comfortable.
?? After Bai Xiying came out after cleaning the stove, Lin Xingzhu was looking at her with his head propped up.
?? Lin Xingzhu mentioned the business that Mu Muqing had explained before: “She said that the work partner in your hand is in a hurry, and she has contacted you and asked you to send it to the project leader.”
??Bai Xiying froze for a moment.
?? She frowned, suddenly thought of something, and said, “Okay, I see.”
??Lin Xingzhu smiled, and was about to say a few more words when his body froze suddenly.
?? There seems to be a heat flow in the nasal cavity.
?? “…”
?? Cottage! Could it be that this broken body is really empty and unreplenishable! Give me a nosebleed right then and there? !
?? Lin Xingzhu straightened up suddenly, stretched out his long arms and scooped up the paper not far away.
??It’s a pity that she is still a step late.
??Bai Xiying looked at Yin Hong’s nosebleed in astonishment, and fell into deep thought.
?? Could it be that Lin Xingzhu really didn’t lie to her, was she really so deceitful?
