Fatty Wang patted Xue Chen on the shoulder with gratitude in his eyes, stood up and walked over, calling out Qi Yan who was choosing a room and telling her that she could move in.
"Xiaoyan, although I really hope that you and Lao Xue can get together, it's really too fast. Lao Xue can't accept it. I think you can move in first and get to know each other more slowly, okay?"
Qi Yan smiled faintly, glanced at Xue Chen, who was sitting on the sofa with a helpless expression, and nodded: "Okay."
On the same day, Wang Dong drove all Qi Yan's luggage over. There were not many things, only two boxes, and Qi Yan officially moved into Jinguan City.
Xue Chen felt strange when he saw Wang Dong helping Qi Yan make the bed. He was used to living alone, and it was still very awkward to suddenly have an extra woman.
After simply cleaning up, Wang Dong asked to go out for dinner. He wanted to treat him, but Qi Yan refused.
"Wang Dong, you go buy some food and come back. I'll cook this meal as a thank you to Mr. Xue."
Wang Dong nodded: "Okay! By the way, Xiaoyan, don't call me Mr.
If we are separated, we will still have to live under the same roof from now on."
Xue Chen smiled helplessly, stood up and said, "You and I will go shopping."
But as soon as he stood up, Wang Dong pushed him back to sit down. Wang Dong said with a smile: "No, I know the nearby supermarket, I can just go there myself."
After Wang Dong left, Xue Chen said to Qi Yan: "Let's not mention anything else, you are Wang Dong's sister, and you have seen the relationship between Wang Dong and me, so you don't have to be polite to live here, just like your own home.
can."
Qi Yan turned her head, looked over with bright eyes, nodded, and said, "I remember you said you didn't have a girlfriend, so why didn't you agree to date me? Is it because I'm not pretty enough?"
Xue Chen didn't expect that Qi Yan would ask such a childish question. He smiled and said: "This has nothing to do with whether you are beautiful or not. You and I are not familiar with each other. There is no way that a woman will come over and say that she wants to be friends with me."
, I will agree, there is no reason."
"Then you mean, once you get to know me, you will agree to let me be your girlfriend?" Qi Yan asked again.
Xue Chen was stunned: "Of course not. Even if we are familiar with each other, it still depends on whether the personality is compatible. In addition, there are many factors. Some things cannot be explained clearly. It depends on feeling."
This time, Qi Yan didn't say anything else.
But looking at Qi Yan, Xue Chen felt a little weird, and subconsciously asked: "Have you never had a boyfriend?" As soon as he asked, he realized that he shouldn't ask, because he was worried that it would touch the other person's nerves and make it unpleasant.
.
But what surprised Xue Chen was that Qi Yan's expression looked very calm. She just shook her head gently and answered with two simple words: "No."
After more than half an hour, Wang Dong went upstairs carrying several large bags containing various vegetables, seafood and meat, and put them into the refrigerator one by one, while Qi Yan also walked into the kitchen.
Wang Dong came back and sat down on the side, turned his head and asked softly: "Old Xue, what did you and Xiaoyan talk about just now?"
"We didn't talk about anything, we just chatted a few words." Xue Chen replied.
Wang Dong snorted, then lowered his head slightly, and said with some sadness: "Old Xue, I know what happened today made you a little unhappy, but I have no choice. I can't bear to refuse Xiaoyan."
Xue Chen's brows moved.
"You don't know, after my second uncle divorced his mistress, Xiaoyan was only fourteen years old. She suffered a great blow at that time. She even suffered from autism for a time. There are still several scars on her wrists, which were left after a suicide attempt.
Down."
Xue Chen was shocked when he heard Wang Dong said that Qi Yan had committed suicide.
"It wasn't until I was 11 years old that my autism gradually improved, but there were some problems with my personality. It was probably because of my second uncle that I didn't trust men, so I heard her say that she was a little interested in you.
, I was so happy that I agreed to her on my own initiative."
Through Wang Dong's words, Xue Chen could easily imagine Qi Yan's experiences, and his dissatisfaction with Qi Yan gradually dissipated.
Qi Yan's cooking skills are very good. In less than an hour, she cooked a table full of dishes, which tasted really good. Xue Chen was very satisfied with the food, and Wang Dong ate to his heart's content. A pair of chopsticks flew up and down at an alarming speed.
Halfway through the meal, Qi Yan suddenly said: "I should ask classmate Xue Qi to come over, but it doesn't matter. I will tell her that I live here next time in class. Also, you don't need to tell Xue Qi to be wary of me. I won't
As for her, I just think she is very innocent and cute."
"Oh." Xue Chen agreed casually, but also murmured in his heart. Although he sympathized with Qi Yan, he had not yet figured out what she was thinking.
After finishing the meal, Fatty Wang didn't stay long. He said something and left. Before leaving, he warned loudly: "Old Xue, don't bully Xiaoyan."
Damn! Why are you talking so loudly? Seeing Fatty Wang winking, Xue Chen felt as if he was reminding himself that he should bully.
When Fatty Wang left, Qi Yan had already washed the dishes and chopsticks. To Xue Chen's surprise, she also washed a lot of fruits and put them in a fruit plate and brought them to him. This made him feel a little flattered and said
: "Qi Yan, there's no need to be so polite."
Qi Yan sat aside, turned on the TV, turned to look over, and said naturally: "Aren't you happy if I do this?"
"I'm...of course happy." Xue Chen said in a long voice, picking up an apple and eating it. He had to say that he felt that Qi Yan's move in seemed to be a good thing.
Before Xue Chen finished eating the apple in his hand, Qi Yan stood up and said, "I'm going to take a shower."
"Uh." Xue Chen glanced at Qi Yan, who was walking to the bathroom, and touched her nose.
After finishing the apple in his hand, Xue Chen stood up and was about to go back to the room when his cell phone rang. It was a call from Ning Xuanxuan.
"Little brother, next Sunday is my birthday, remember to come." Ning Xuanxuan said softly on the phone.
"Don't worry, I won't forget it." Xue Chen said with a cheerful smile.
"Well, that's good. Also, don't forget my birthday gift."
Hearing Ning Xuanxuan reminding her about the birthday gift again, Xue Chen smiled bitterly and said, "I know it, and I won't forget it."
At this time, Qi Yan came out of the bathroom and asked, "Xue Chen, aren't you going to take a shower? I boiled water."
"Oh, thank you." Xue Chen replied.
On the other end of the phone, Ning Xuanxuan suddenly asked in surprise: "Xue Chen, where are you now?"
"Here in Jinguan City."
"Why was there a woman's voice just now?" Ning Xuanxuan asked.
Xue Chen organized the words in his mind and said: "Oh, she is a cousin of Wang Dong, and she will live with me for a while."
"Why does Fatty Wang's sister come to live with you? How old is she? What does she do?"
Hearing Ning Xuanxuan ask several questions in succession, Xue Chen simply replied: "She seems to be one year younger than me. She recently joined Haicheng University as a Taekwondo teacher."
"Yeah." The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds and hung up without saying anything else.
Qi Yan, wearing a set of dark blue pajamas, walked over and asked, "Whose phone number is it?"
"A friend of mine." Xue Chen replied casually, then looked up at Qi Yan and saw that Qi Yan was wearing a one-piece pajamas, revealing two white arms and shapely calves.
The white is dazzling under the light.
"You go take a shower." Qi Yan didn't say anything more and went back to her room.
Xue Chen turned off the TV and went to the bathroom. He looked at the water stains on the floor and smelled the faint aroma, which made his heart skip a beat inexplicably.
When he was about to take off his clothes and take a shower, he suddenly saw two thin pieces of cloth, one pink and one white, hanging on the pole beside him, still dripping with water...
Looking at these two thin pieces of fabric, Xue Chen's eyelids twitched, he left the bathroom, came to the door of another room, and knocked on the door.
"Is something wrong?" Qi Yan opened the door and asked.
"Yes!" Xue Chen pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and said, "Qi Yan, the clothes you hung in the bathroom can be taken to the balcony of your room to dry."
Qi Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and she obviously knew what Xue Chen was referring to, but she didn't show any shyness or embarrassment. She nodded naturally and went to the bathroom to get it back.
Early the next morning, Xue Chen smelled a scent as soon as he opened the door. When he went to the kitchen door, he saw that Qi Yan had gotten up early and was making breakfast, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
"Actually, you don't have to cook it. Even if you don't, it doesn't matter." Xue Chen looked at the several exquisite side dishes on the table and rubbed his nose.
Qi Yan looked over and said, "It doesn't matter. I'm used to it. I've already prepared it. Come over and eat it after you wash up."
The two of them sat down across the dining table to eat face to face without saying anything. Qi Yan looked very natural and even had a faint smile on her lips, but Xue Chen felt a little awkward in her heart and couldn't tell what was wrong.
It wasn't until he finished his meal that he figured out what was wrong. Normally, Qi Yan should be very angry with him and even hate him because it was such an unpleasant encounter for the second time that day.
But why did he suddenly say that he was interested in him and insist on moving in? And he also cooked and washed fruits. This was completely "repaying evil with kindness", which he couldn't understand.
"Ahem, Qi Yan, aren't you angry at what I did?" Xue Chen felt it was necessary to ask.
"Angry? I was a little angry before, but I'm not angry anymore because I know you're just nice to Xue Qi and you're a very good brother." Qi Yan replied.
Xue Chen nodded and said, "Thank you for understanding."
Qi Yan said nothing more and stood up: "I'm done eating and going to school." (To be continued)
