Chapter 26

A series of questions came to his mind. Chi Qi was frightened. He tried his best to suppress the instinct to run away and swallowed his saliva. "Um, can you hear my voice?"

“…”

[Help, what a stupid question I asked! Mr. Xie is a vegetative person, not a deaf person, so he can definitely hear me talking. 】

He managed to calm himself down and soothed her, "Just lie here and don't move. I'll... I'll go get you a nurse."

Help! He also wants to lie down on this bed!

The man did not respond to him as usual.

Of course, Chi Qi didn't want him to respond.

The ward was very quiet, and for a moment the only sound was his panicked heartbeat.

Before leaving, Chi Qi looked at the man again with concern, and saw Xie Mu slowly moving his eyes. The feeling of unreality surged up from the depths of his heart again.

No, why did you wake up suddenly?

There was no warning at all, and he was caught off guard.

Shouldn’t it be a gradual process for a vegetative patient to wake up?

Could it be... that... it is really as the master said, that his fate is very prosperous? He is Xie Mu's true love, or is he the noble person in his life?

To be honest, when Shen Wanji approached him, he didn't believe it, but there was nothing he could do. The money was too much, so Chi Qi felt that he would lose a lot if he didn't agree.

He hoped that Xie Mu would wake up. After all, he was only in his twenties, so young and at the right age to make achievements. It would be such a pity if he could only spend the rest of his life lying in bed relying on nutrient solution.

But could you please not wake up when he has just done something naughty? How would he face Xie Mu in the future? Is he still a human being? `

[I don’t want to live anymore ahhhhh T_T]

After closing the door, Chi Qi looked around carefully. After making sure that there was no one around, he leaned against the wall weakly, covered his face with both hands, and brainwashed himself.

[It's okay!] It's okay! without! thing! clatter! 】

[Wow, this is still so embarrassing!] What's this? Amnesia spray, spray it! What's this? Amnesia spray, spray it! What's this? Amnesia spray, spray it! What's this? Amnesia spray, spray it! 】

[No, I can’t forget it. I can’t forget it at all.] 】

Xie Mu, who was separated by a wall: "..."

Didn’t you say you would find a nurse for me?

After several minutes, Chi Qi managed to calm himself down. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Shrouded by huge shame, he lowered his head the whole time and walked to the nurse station like an ant. "Hello, excuse me..."

The nurse on duty knew him. He was handsome and had a good personality. He was said to be the boyfriend of the vegetative patient in Room 504. He often talked to the vegetative patient. She had expressed her feelings to her friends more than once that the boyfriend was so pitiful, waiting for his lover with a slim hope.

After all, there are very few cases of vegetative patients waking up. Seeing Chi Qi's absent-minded look, the nurse felt even more sympathetic, and the words of comfort were already at her throat, "What's wrong?"

Chi Qi's thoughts were in a mess, his brain was a mess, the impact of Xie Mu's sudden opening of his eyes was still there, making his language system almost collapse, "My husband is awake, go check on him."

After these words were spoken, both of them were shocked.

Chi Qi widened his eyes in confusion. He had called it so many times in his mind that it came out of his mouth smoothly. Habit is really a terrible thing. At least people cannot and should not call strangers "husband".

The nurse stood up suddenly, her voice raised a few notes, and asked in surprise: "Your husband woke up? When did he wake up?"

Chi Qi was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. A faint blush appeared on his fair cheeks. He was too embarrassed to raise his head. He wanted to cry but had no tears. "No."

[Oh my God, I really don’t want to live anymore! 】

The nurse stopped and asked suspiciously, "What do you mean by 'no'? Is he awake or not?"

Chi Qi twisted the corner of his clothes and explained, "He should be awake now. He...he is not my husband."

The last few words were so soft as a mosquito's whisper that the nurse couldn't hear them clearly because her attention was focused on what was ahead.

Hearing that the boy's answer seemed unconvincing, the nurse had to remind him, "Vegetative patients can react instinctively to external stimuli."

In the past, there were many family members who cheered and thought the vegetative patient was going to wake up just because the patient moved his fingers. However, this is actually a normal phenomenon.

Chi Qi's mind went blank. He didn't know how to describe it, and his words were in disarray. "But he just opened his eyes and hasn't closed them yet. Um, his eyeballs are still moving in the direction I'm standing."

If this isn’t waking up, then what is?

After hearing what he said, the nurse took responsibility and walked out of the platform, "I'll go with you to take a look."

Is it too late to buy a plane ticket and escape overnight?

The answer is it is too late. Not only can Chi Qi not run, but he has to follow the nurse back to the ward and face the embarrassing fact again.

Pushing open the door of the ward, Chi Qi saw Xie Mu slowly blinking his eyes, and immediately pointed it out to the nurse, "He just blinked, does that mean he's awake?"

The nurse hummed in surprise and quickly picked up the instrument to give the patient a simple examination.

Based on the principle that if he couldn't see Xie Mu, Xie Mu couldn't see him either, Chi Qi secretly hid behind him, occasionally stealing glances out of the corner of his eyes, anxiously waiting for the result.

[Brother, let's make a deal. Can you let me know in advance next time you open your eyes? How many hearts do I have that are enough to scare you? 】

"The patient is recovering well, and there is no sign of atrophy, but the specific results have to wait for the test report to come out. Family members should not worry too much. If you have time, you can spend more time with the patient."

The nurse recorded the data and the tip of her pen paused as she wrote the number. She had taken care of many vegetative patients, but this was the first one who woke up so quickly and recovered so well. Mr. Xie looked no different from a normal person except that he looked a little weak.

Is this the power of love?

Then the nurse denied it in her heart. She must have read too many novels, which led to her having such unrealistic ideas. The expensive medical team and the most advanced equipment were not just for show.

She turned around and ordered, "I'll go call the attending physician. You can always come to me if you have any questions. Got it?"

【Um? Want to leave? 】

Chi Qi lowered his head stiffly.

[Then does that mean that Mr. Xie and I are the only ones left in the ward? Tonic ahhhhh. 】

When she didn't hear a response, the nurse thought Chi Qi was too excited and repeated, "If your husband has any questions, you can always come to me."

Chi Qi: “…”

Nurse:"……?"

Chi Qi: “…”

Nurse:"???"

The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and finally Chi Qi was afraid that the nurse would "say something nonsense" again, so he agreed in a low voice.

After the nurse explained the precautions, she left. The ward fell into silence again, and the air was wrapped tightly in silence.

When Xie Mu was lying motionless before, his aura was still strong, and he gave off an air that said "keep away from strangers". Now that he has woken up, with those cold eyes, he is even more... even more scary.

Chi Qi shrank his neck, too timid to speak.

He calmly moved the small stool until he was a certain distance away, which gave him a little more sense of security, and then he spoke, "Don't worry, it was the nurse who misunderstood our relationship. During the time you were unconscious, Auntie Shen didn't bring you a wedding. You are still single, so you can treat me as yours..."

He paused, trying to think of the right term, "Just think of me as your caregiver."

Although feudal superstitions have been gradually abandoned, as far as Chi Qi knows, the phenomenon of weddings for the sake of rushing to get married is not uncommon among wealthy families. He was afraid that Xie Mu was not aware of the situation and, combined with the "husband" mentioned by the nurse, he would mistakenly believe that he was married while he was in a coma.

After hurriedly explaining their relationship, he added, "I took off your clothes to help you wipe your body."

"Really, you believe me!"

[Although I do have a little thought of taking advantage of you, I will definitely not tell you. 】

Xie Mu's eyelashes were half-closed, and his expression remained indifferent, as if he didn't care about these things, or perhaps he didn't want to listen to a stranger like him.

The brain issued a command to stop talking, but the mouth was one step faster, and Chi Qi asked, "How do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Xie Mu ignored him coldly.

All right, Chi Qi shut up tactfully and started going crazy secretly in his heart.

[What the hell, buddy, you didn’t say a word? Shit, I'm dying of embarrassment from the silent air, ahhhhhhh, it's okay, life goes by quickly, ahhhhhhhhh. 】

Ignore me? Do you think I care? Woo woo woo, have you ever quit drugs? How could you resist ignoring me? 】

The sudden sound was so loud that it sounded like an out-of-control screaming chicken. Xie Mu wanted to raise his hand to rub his ears. He felt that his fragile eardrums had suffered a deep injury.

However, his strength had not yet recovered, and he could not perform complex movements. He closed his eyes and endured for three seconds. In the end, he could not withstand the ravages of this attack. He said weakly, "Don't... don't talk."

Just these few words had already consumed most of his energy. Xie Mu took a deep breath and cast an earnest look at Chi Qi, hoping that he could understand what he meant.

[Stop talking, stop talking, I didn't say anything, I will never call you hubby again, you actually blame me for no reason. 】

Instead of decreasing the volume, it reached a new high.

Xie Mu: “…”

Persuasion didn't work, so he simply closed his eyes, thinking that out of sight, out of mind... Just kidding, there was nothing wrong with his ears, and even if he was deaf, he would be stimulated to regain his hearing.

With a "bang", the door of the ward was pushed open forcefully.

Upon hearing the news that his son had woken up, Shen Wanji rushed over, but found that his son was still lying on the bed with his eyes closed. Chi Qi, who was standing next to him, looked dazed. His heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Thousands of thoughts flooded my mind.

Didn’t you say you were awake? Why is Keren still lying in bed motionless? Could it be a last burst of energy, waking up after using up all the energy at the last moment of life?

...When her energy is exhausted, what awaits her is a complete farewell.

Shen Wanji turned around in confusion and caught a glimpse of the straight line displayed on the life monitor, and his legs immediately went limp.

It's over, she's late.

Shen Wanji's heart was as confused as a ball of yarn that had been scratched by a cat. Her eyes gradually turned red. She should not have left. Missing Xiao Mu's last period of time in this world was her dereliction of duty as a mother.

Xiao Mu died alone, without any family members by his side. The more he thought about it, the more sad he felt. His nose felt sore and tears almost burst out.

Chen Wanji walked to the bedside with heavy steps, stretched out his hand and closed Xie Mu's eyelids, saying in a sad tone, "In the end... the young send the young to their deaths."

Xie Mu, who closed his eyes to rest, said: "?"

Chi Qi, who was watching silently, said: "?"

There was a subtle touch on the palm of his hand, and Shen Wanji realized that something was wrong belatedly: "?"

Xie Mu raised his hand with difficulty and took Shen Wanji's arm away from his face, looking straight at her with his dark eyes.

Shen Wanji: “…”

Xie Mu: “…”

Shen Wanji:

[This situation and this scene should be accompanied by a line: Are you the one spreading rumors that I’m dead? Hahahahahahaha, I laughed so hard and suddenly I felt not so embarrassed anymore. 】

As the saying goes, as long as you are not embarrassed, then others will be embarrassed.

Shen Wanji stepped back as if nothing had happened, and said angrily, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you woke up? I made your mother worry about you for nothing."

Xie Mu blew bubbles in silence, "."

Faced with the accusations, he was speechless. He had just woken up and his vocal cords had not yet recovered. Even if he wanted to speak, he couldn't. He had no chance to open his mouth at all.

Shen Wanji continued to perform steadily, standing on the moral high ground, "Xiao Mu, it's been six months, six months. Do you know how your mother has been through these six months? I couldn't eat well, I couldn't sleep well, and all I could think about was you..."

[As expected, the older you are, the wiser you are. She can remain calm after just going through something embarrassing. Aunt Chen is too strong-willed. I can’t do that. I can only say to myself: It’s okay! It's okay! without! thing! clatter! 】

Xie Mu was once again disturbed by the noise: "..."

Should I praise you for being so great and comfort myself?

Being attacked by two voices at the same time, Xie Mu ignored the fact that his body was about to shut down, and forced himself to stay awake, casting a grateful look at Shen Wanji: You stay in the bar every night and don't go home. These six months have really exhausted you.

When mother and son looked at each other, just one glance was worth a thousand words.

Shen Wanji cleared her throat and said softly, "Mom won't disturb your rest. I'll leave first and come to see you later."

Xie Mu tilted his head slightly, interrupted her, and said in a hoarse voice: "No...no..."

Don’t want to leave?

Shen Wanji's expression froze slightly: Do you want to see Mom continue to be embarrassed? A filial son?

"Silly child, you will have many opportunities to visit your mother in the future. There is no need to rush now." Although she said this, Shen Wanji still felt sorry for her only child and kept him.

Xie Mu didn't say anything else and turned his gaze to Chi Qi behind him.

His eyes were like obsidian washed by mountain springs. They were beautiful, but their gaze was sharp. At a certain moment, Chi Qi felt that he saw through his inner thoughts.

It was a bit scary. Chi Qi moved away calmly, but when he moved, Xie Mu's gaze also followed him, always following him closely.

【? Are you a professional sniper, bro? 】

Seeing that his son was still staring at people, Shen Wanji coughed lightly and introduced him, "Xiao Mu, you can wake up thanks to Xiao Chi. He is your lucky star. When you recover, you must give Xiao Chi a big red envelope."

Hearing that there was money to be made, the corners of Chi Qi's mouth lifted uncontrollably, and his mood became better.

He nodded slightly, that's right!

[What a simple and unpretentious way of expressing gratitude, but... hehe, I like it! I don't smoke or drink. I'm just a poor, weak and innocent little boy. What's wrong with being a little greedy for sex and money? 】

"Yeah." Xie Mu uttered a monosyllable as a promise, then stared at Chi Qi's genuine smile with a thoughtful look. He seemed to like money very much.

In that case... In just a few seconds, he instantly formulated a plan.

Shen Wanji was in a good mood and suggested cheerfully, "Just giving a red envelope is not enough. Xiao Chi has taken care of you for so long and has done his best. It is no exaggeration to say that he has saved your life. Well... you should treat him as a benefactor in the future."

[I know this question!] I should repay you for saving my life with my body. Hubby, I don't need you to work like a slave to repay me. Just treat me as your husband, hehehehe. 】

Chi Qi was overwhelmed by the huge benefits, his head was dizzy, and his footsteps moved lightly to the front, "Auntie Chen, you are too polite."

"You should. After all, you have done so much for Xiao Mu."

ah? Am I not just playing the role of a mascot?

Chi Qi actually didn't quite understand Shen Wanji's train of thought, but he was the beneficiary, the one who would gain benefits, so there was no need to dwell too much on the words.

"Come on, Xiaochi, come here quickly." Chen Wanji pulled his arm with one hand and reached for Xie Mu with the other, forcibly intertwining their hands. "Take advantage of this time to cultivate your relationship, and you will live more harmoniously together in the future."

Chi Qi: “?”

What a strange thing to say? Listen again?

...Life will be more harmonious in the future, what does that mean? Life in the future shouldn’t be about each taking his own path, with each taking his own way.

Will they continue to interact with each other after leaving this ward?

Chi Qi's expression was slightly stiff. He tried to pull his hand out, but couldn't.

From this angle, from top to bottom, he could just see Xie Mu's long and curled eyelashes, which were like hooks, and the tingling feeling in the palm of his palm appeared again.

It’s not good. My palm is itchy and I want to scratch it.

Shen Wanji was still saying something that seemed strange to Chi Qi, "In short, you should live a loving life with each other and don't let my kindness down."

Chi Qi's mind was full of scratching, and he responded absentmindedly, "I will."

[In this situation, should I say, please give me your guidance for the rest of my life... Ahhh, what a mess I am thinking about. 】

The hand that Xu held had distinct joints, was slender and clean, and the nails were round and clean, just like crystal clear white jade. He could completely cover it with one hand.

It was Xie Mu's turn to express his opinion. He responded calmly, "Yes."

Um? Agreed?

Her arrogant son didn't even refuse?

Chen Wanji looked at Xie Mu suspiciously, and after confirming with his eyes, he knew that it was the original product. His son had not been possessed by another body. This was... after a trip to the gates of hell, he had a great enlightenment and decided to change his ways.

After all, the result was good. The big stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground. Shen Wanji breathed a sigh of relief with a smile in his eyes, "Then I feel relieved."

In her opinion, Xie Mu was good in everything. He was humble, gentle and polite. He had grown up smoothly in the past twenty years. It was not an exaggeration to call him a child of destiny. The only difference was that he had fewer friends and seldom went out to socialize.

If I could become friends with Chi Qi, my future life would surely be lively.

Knock knock! Two knocks on the door interrupted her thoughts.

Shen Wanji stood up and opened the door.

Without the shackles, Chi Qi took the opportunity to pull his hand out and rubbed it vigorously for a few times, and the strange feeling dissipated a little.

"Hello, Doctor Ye."

Chi Qi looked over and after seeing the doctor's face clearly, he whistled in his heart.

[Wow, so handsome!] 】

[You must be new here. I have never seen you before. Carry you directly into the Yangxin Palace tonight! 】

On the bed, Xie Mu, who had just felt a little sleepy, suddenly perked up and widened his eyes in disbelief.

Did he lie in bed for too long and develop hallucinations?

The attending physician wore a white coat, had starry eyes, sharp facial features, and most importantly, thick hair. Anyone who saw him would praise him for being young and promising. He had a nameplate on his chest: Ye Xing.

Chi Qi repeated it silently in his mind, and the expression on his face became complicated.

[Traveling to Ye? Hmm... is that okay? What a unique name, it makes people doubt his medical skills. Especially since he is so handsome, it makes it even less convincing. 】

Doctor Ye smiled gently and elegantly, "Don't worry, we have arranged a checkup for Mr. Xie."

Shen Wanji thanked him happily, "Thank you for troubling Doctor Ye."

"Don't bother. This is what we should do." Doctor Ye instructed, "The patient has just woken up. Family members need to pay attention to the patient's emotions and psychological changes at all times, so that the patient can maintain a positive attitude towards life and the future. After a while, a rehabilitation plan can be drawn up to promote physical recovery."

Doctor Ye explained in great detail, with a long list of precautions, and Chi Qi couldn't help but smacking his tongue when he heard it.

[If someone like me who is lazy and afraid of pain unfortunately becomes a vegetable, I am afraid I will not be able to survive the rehabilitation process.

I hope the whole family stays away from car accidents and lives a long life. 】

He lowered his head and thought about something, and accidentally met the eyes of Xie Mu who was lying on the bed. He looked cold and gloomy. After he realized what was happening, he quickly turned his face away.

With a quick glance, Chi Qi felt that Xie Mu was a little unhappy for some reason.

He thought absentmindedly: Maybe it’s an illusion.

Doctor Ye closed the medical record book and said, "Ms. Shen, please come with me to sign."

"Okay." Shen Wanji picked up the bag and turned back to instruct, "Xiao Chi, look after Xiao Mu for a while."

Chi Qi responded in a low voice, "Okay."

He watched the two of them walk out of the ward.

Doctor Ye took a step behind and talked softly to Shen Wanji while holding the door handle. He looked up and accurately met the gaze of Chi Qi inside the door.

Then she raised the corners of her lips and quickly winked with her beautiful narrow eyes.

"!"

Chi Qi was confused and didn't understand what was going on.

[Dr. Ye was just winking at me? Have I seen him before? 】

That happened in a moment, and he couldn't tell whether Dr. Ye did it on purpose. After all, there was a certain possibility that Dr. Ye simply had an eye cramp and was uncomfortable.

Bang——

The door was closed, completely cutting off contact with the outside world. Chi Qi and Xie Mu were the only two people left in the deserted ward.

Although Chi Qi was very puzzled by Doctor Ye's strange behavior, he couldn't stop him and ask him clearly. What if he had wrongly accused him? Wouldn't that be self-indulgent?

Chi Qi believes that he does not have the charm to make others like him after just one meeting.

He sat back on the small stool, his mind full of the scene just now, until the patient on the bed coughed, he came back to his senses and asked with concern, "Mr. Xie, are you feeling unwell?"

Xie Mu moved his fingers slightly a few times, meaning no, so Chi Qi stopped talking and just sat there quietly, looking well-behaved and cute.

If his heart is as calm as his appearance.

[I didn’t feel anything when I was thinking about it, but now I suddenly realize that Mr. Xie’s presence is so strong... It’s so embarrassing, Mr. Xie, do you know? When I hear your breathing now, I feel like rushing to the rooftop (T ^ T)! 】

Xie Mu: “…”

But a living person cannot stop breathing. Do you want him to act out his death on the spot?

The boy in front of me probably doesn't want to run away because he is embarrassed, but because he is afraid.

[Mr. Xie, you are sleepy. Close your eyes quickly. Go to sleep, ...

Just like chanting a spell to tighten the hoop, unfortunately Xie Mu became the monkey.

"..."

The atmosphere is now like this, it seems like I have no choice but to sleep.

If you die on the spot and can't perform, you can still fall asleep on the spot.

Amid Chi Qi's constant muttering and expectant gaze, Xie Mu pretended to be sleepy and slowly closed his eyes to fulfill his wish.

About ten minutes later, Chi Qi raised his head and asked cautiously, "Mr. Xie, are you asleep?"

The room was silent and no one answered him.

It seemed that he was really asleep. Chi Qi felt relieved and looked at the man on the bed with his chin in his hand. The man looked peaceful in his sleep with a relaxed face, like a quiet painting.

[Alas, it turns out that I am more accustomed to Mr. Xie who doesn't move. 】

But habits are habits, and it is extremely lucky that Xie Mu was able to wake up from his vegetative state. Chi Qi was very happy for him.

It would be better if the timing of opening eyes could be more appropriate.

[Wait, Mr. Xie is awake. Does that mean I won’t have the chance to earn extra money in the future? 】

Chi Qi seemed to have just realized this, his eyes widened, and he rubbed his cheeks in distress.

[Where can I find an employer like Aunt Chen who pays me from hand to hand? 】

But he quickly calmed himself down.

[Forget it, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. It’s just a mere stink of money, I don’t care (choked up). 】

Xie Mu, who was lying on his side, listened to these mumblings and wanted to laugh for no reason. But he couldn't, because laughing out loud would make noise, and then it would expose the fact that he was pretending to sleep.

He secretly lifted a corner of his eyelids and observed the boy's handsome face with his peripheral vision, and then found that Chi Qi was making a lot of small movements. But before he could see enough, the boy suddenly made a move to stand up.

Xie Mu quickly closed his eyes, his heart was in his throat, his breathing became rapid and irregular, and his palms hidden in the quilt were even sweaty.

Did you find out that he was peeking?

The footsteps came from far away and soon reached the bedside.

Chi Qi walked around the bed, probably thinking. After a moment, he bent down, and the distance between them was shortened again, and their breath blended together.

Xie Mu curled his fingers uncomfortably, his nervous breathing almost stopping. What was he trying to do, being so close to him?

Kada——

Chi Qi pressed the regulating valve on the side of the bed and laid his body flat little by little.

At the same time, the boy's inner voice came, with a bit of doubt.

[Strange, with the pad so high, won’t your neck feel uncomfortable? 】

Xie Mu: “…”

Thank you for listening to me.

I don’t know if it was the effect of psychological suggestion, but gradually, I felt sleepy again. It felt like a spinning top in my head was slowly stopping, and my consciousness became blurred.

When I opened my eyes again, the person guarding me was Shen Wanji.

Shen Wanji probably found something funny and was laughing so hard that she made a sound like a silver bell. She was so engrossed in the laughter that she didn't notice her son's resentful look at all.

Cough, cough, the cough that came out of her throat called back Shen Wanji's attention. She noticed that the patient next to her had woken up at some point.

She reluctantly put down her phone and leaned in to ask, "My dear son, how do you feel?

Xie Mu said calmly and slowly: "I can't die."

These three words seemed to have exhausted all his strength. After he finished speaking, he lowered his eyelashes, pursed his pale lips, and exhaled a few faint breaths of sick air between his nostrils.

The sunlight outside the window moisturized his face a lot, but it was still pale, like a swan that was in desperate situation but still stretched its wings, aloof and elegant.

Shen Wanji admired the "sick beauty" for a while, turned on the camera and said, "Hey, don't move, this angle is perfect. Mom will take a picture of you and post it on WeChat Moments later."

"Also, your voice is so unpleasant, just like your husband's duck voice, so don't speak recently." She added, "Mom is doing this for your own good, be good and listen."

Xie Mu: “…”

Xie Mu closed his eyes, wishing he could faint again.

*

After experiencing many ups and downs in just a few hours, Chi Qi got out of the car exhausted and stood in front of the door of his villa with his tired body.

It was late in the day and a cool breeze was blowing. He opened his arms and waved them, imagining himself as a free bird. He took a deep breath of the fresh air, and his body instantly became a lot lighter.

Huh~ I let out the turbid air in my heart. After a few rounds, the shame and embarrassment were also diluted.

Chi Qi sighed from the bottom of his heart.

[It was such a tiring day. I felt like I had aged 24 hours! 】

Behind him, a car stopped at some point. After hearing this, Brother Chi, who had been working all day, nodded in agreement.

In the company, every minute that passed made him feel 60 seconds older.

There are always 7 days in a week when I don’t want to go to work.

Assistant Guan, who was secretly observing his boss's demeanor, asked, "Boss Chi, I would like to take a day off this Saturday."

Chi Tingsi bit his cigarette, considering the possibility of taking a leave of absence from work. He rubbed his brows and asked, "Why?"

Assistant Guan was nervous, "It's my girlfriend's birthday, I want to be with her."

Chi Tingsi was not unkind, he nodded and said, "I agree."

Assistant Guan was very grateful and said with a smile, "Thank you, President."

He didn't expect Mr. Chi to be so reasonable. He thought that Mr. Chi's own love life was not going well and he couldn't bear to see his employees happy. He was narrow-minded.

So Assistant Guan asked cheerfully, "Boss Chi, can I get off work now? My girlfriend called me for dinner, and she'll be angry if I come home late."

Chi Tingsi took a deep puff of his cigarette and waved his hand, "Let's go."

"Boss Chi, you are so nice." Assistant Guan was so happy that he lost his mind and couldn't help showing off. "I told her I was working, but she kept messaging me. She was just too clingy. Boss Chi, you probably don't have this experience."

The chat record with Lin Qingmian still stopped at Chi Tingsi from the day before yesterday: "..."

He tilted his head and asked in a hoarse voice, "You opened the door with your left hand just now, right?"

Assistant Guan didn’t understand but said, “Yes.”

“This month’s bonus is gone.”

Assistant Guan: “Ah???”

No, he was wronged!

It's just a relationship, what's there to brag about?

Chi Tingsi finished smoking, calmed down, got out of the car, came behind his brother who was still flying freely, patted his shoulder, and asked faintly, "What are you doing?"

Chi Qi was caught off guard when someone patted his shoulder: “!”

He was so frightened that he forgot where to put his arms. He was at a loss and greeted stiffly, "Brother, good evening."

Chi Tingsi smiled, "Good evening."

Chi Qi asked with hope in his trembling voice, "Brother, are you new here?"

The eldest brother gave him a cold look and told him to figure it out for himself.

It's over.

Chi Qi knew that his elder brother had seen the entire process of him going crazy. His eyes were dull and his whole body was shaky, as if he would fall to the ground if the wind blew.

[When God gives you slaps in the face, does he give you several slaps at once? 】

Chi Tingsi didn't give his brother any time to buffer, and said in a leisurely tone: "If you don't go in now, the food will get cold."

After saying that, he walked away with his long legs, turning a deaf ear to the heart-wrenching cries behind him.

[Wow, don’t I have any dignity? Wuuuu, brother, I hate you. I will never smile at you again! Because you hurt me deeply! 】

*

[Chi Qi]: crying.jpg

[Chi Qi]: It’s so embarrassing, I don’t want to live anymore.

[An Xun]: What’s wrong? (hug.jpg)

[Chi Qi]: Wuuuu, didn’t I take a job taking care of a vegetative patient? The vegetative patient was so handsome that when I was wiping his body, I couldn't help myself and whispered in his ear that I wanted to take off his clothes. (awkward.jpg)

[An Xun]: And then?

[Chi Qi]: Then he opened his eyes.

[An Xun]: I've reserved a villa for you. You're welcome. Please be more careful in the future.

[Chi Qi]: Woohoo wow wow wow T_T (Xiong Er is crying.jpg)

[An Xun]: Take some Chinese medicine to regulate your body.

[Chi Qi]: Chinese medicine is no longer effective, I need pesticides to cure the problem.

[An Xun]: Don’t drink too much, drink less, go to sleep, bye.

Chi Qi put down his cell phone, lifted a corner of the quilt, and suddenly dived into the bed, wrapping himself tightly without leaving any space, and holding the pillow tightly in his arms.

It's okay, the boat has already passed and flipped over, and it will naturally sink when it reaches the bridge.

It's not that I have no way out, I still have a dead end.

Human beings, isn’t it because being a human being is tiring?

As he continued talking, Chi Qi felt like he was going to the rooftop again. In order to avoid tragedy, he began to recite the Great Compassion Mantra.

After finishing the work at hand, Chi Tingsi glanced at the hair that had just fallen in his hand and the phone that still had no new messages, and decided to lie down on the bed.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he heard the spiritual sound of Sanskrit in his ears. In a trance, he smelled the fragrance of glass, and the seed of compassion took root in his heart.

Namo He Luo Dana Duo Luo Ye Ye.

However, before he could realize the truth, the voice suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse.

[How can a person not be crazy? Just pretend!] How can a person not be crazy? Just pretend! How can a person not be crazy? Just pretend! How can a person not be crazy? Just pretend! 】

Chi Tingsi: “…”

What are you doing so crazy late at night?

Can’t let people sleep anymore!

I’m already annoyed that I can’t hug my wife, and now I’m being tortured by my stupid brother. This life is unbearable!

Chi Qi was almost twisted into a dough stick on the bed, rolling around, and the smooth sheets were rippled by his flapping.

It was a bit strange. Embarrassing things had happened before and he usually just laughed it off. He had never been like this before, as if he was controlled by strange emotions that he couldn't understand.

hateful! Today I will let you see who is the owner of this body!

He gathered his energy and shouted three times.

[My destiny is in my own hands, and I am in charge of my emotions!] My destiny is in my own hands, and I am in charge of my emotions! My destiny is in my own hands, and I am in charge of my emotions! 】

Just some emotions, so easy to control!

At the same time, Chi Tingsi opened the family group chat.

[A family that invades and hinders each other (4)]

[Father Chi]: Xiaoqi is having an attack again?

[Chi’s mother]: I have the urge to kick Xiaoqi out of the house.

[Father Chi]: My dear child, calm down. (Soybean wiping sweat.jpg)

[Chi Tingsi]: Mom and Dad, I won’t be back tomorrow. I’m still young and at the age to work hard. I can’t indulge in the warmth of family, so I decided to work overtime in the company to catch up with the sales performance.

[Chi’s mother]: I object. You can only sleep in two places. One is the bed at home, and the other is Minmin’s bed. If you dare to sleep in other messy places, I will kick you out of the house. It’s a simple matter.

[Chi's father]: +1 for objection.

[Chi Sulu]: Against +10086.

[Chi Ting Si]: @Chi Su Lu, what does this have to do with you? It's easy to talk without any pain in your waist. You are having fun on the crew and you don't care about your brother's life or death.

[Chi Sulu]: Hehe (squinting smile.jpg)

[Father Chi]: There are three votes against in total. Your request is rejected.

[Chi Tingsi]: Mom, you can’t bear to see me go out and have some peace and quiet, right?

[Chi’s mother]: I can’t help it if you insist on thinking this way.

[Father Chi]: Stop arguing. The key now is how to stop Xiaoqi from making any noise.

[Chi’s mother]: How about putting some sleeping pills in the milk that Xiaoqi drinks at night?

[Chi Su Lu]: Mom, your idea is very cruel.

[Chi’s mother]: What should we do then? You can't knock Xiaoqi out?

[Father Chi]: Let’s each wear a pair of earplugs.

[Chi's mother]: Earplugs can only resist physical attacks, not mental attacks.

[Chi Tingsi]: I have a solution.

[Chi’s mother]: Approved.

[Chi Tingsi]: We take the sleeping pills ourselves, and then we close our eyes. No matter how loud the noise is, it has nothing to do with us.

[Father Chi]: Are you really a genius?

[Chi’s mother]: …

In the end, they still couldn't figure out a reliable solution. When Chi's mother couldn't bear it anymore and was about to rush into Chi Qi's room and beat him up, Chi Qi stopped going crazy and the ears of the three were temporarily liberated.

It was late at night, the dark night enveloped the entire city, and people gradually calmed down.

Chi Qi had a rare dream.

In his dream, An Xun ordered eight hundred male models for him. All of them had broad shoulders, narrow waists, long legs, could dance striptease, and had beautiful voices, which made him lose his mind.

An Xun asked him which one he wanted?

He looked at them one by one, and his eyes were dazzled, but he still couldn't choose one, like a tyrant who was bewitched by beauty, "Can't I have them all?"

An Xun rolled his eyes at him and scolded him for being so greedy that he wasn't afraid of not being able to handle the consequences.

Chi Qi touched his nose. He was just in a dream. What was wrong with having a few more men? It's not against the law, could it be that someone is arresting him in his dream?

Suddenly, he realized something was wrong and asked in confusion, "Why are you all facing away from me? Can't you let me see your face?"

Are they all back-shadow killers?

That won’t do. He is very picky and has strict review standards. Good looks, imposing height and a strong body are all necessary!

"An Xun, ask them to turn around so I can pick them out carefully."

An Xun clapped his hands, and all the male models turned around in unison. It was a spectacular sight, but Chi Qi not only lost interest in appreciation, he also had an urge to escape - all the male models actually had Xie Mu's face!

Chi Qi stepped back in shock, but fell into a broad chest, with hot breath spraying in his ears. His casual and laughing voice could not hide his anger, "Why are you running? Don't you want some male models?"

He raised his head slowly, as if frozen in slow motion, and what came into view was still Xie Mu's face.

【Help! Don't come over here! 】

A voice filled with fear flashed across the entire villa like a bolt of lightning.

It scared Mr. and Mrs. Chi/Brother Chi awake from their sleep.

The three of them sat up in surprise, "No, you are sick!"

Chi Qi got up early, which was rare for him. He came down from the third floor and saw his elder brother sitting at the dining table in a neat suit from afar.

The eldest brother also saw him and snorted in annoyance.

Chi Qi: “…”

[Going to work is like a princess going to the frontier to marry a princess. People who work tend to have bad tempers. Besides, my brother is doing this for the family, so I can bear it. 】

Chi Qi decided to pretend he didn't see it, return evil with kindness, and greeted him with a smile, "Good morning, big brother."

The eldest brother lowered his head to eat and didn't want to pay attention to him.

[Brother, you are going too far!] Don't think you are my elder brother...I really can't do anything to you. 】

Turning around, Chi's father and mother who were sitting on the other side saw him and both showed impatient expressions. Although they quickly covered it up, he still saw it.

Chi Qi: “?”

Chi Qi shouted: "Dad, Mom, what do you mean?"

[Is there no room for me in this home anymore?] 】

Mother Chi got a headache when she heard his voice. She raised her hand and kept rubbing her temples. "Don't talk. Don't bother me."

She really can't stand it.

Father Chi was also still in shock. He held his chest to calm himself down and said, "Xiao Qi, be quiet."

He wanted to live a few more years.

Chi Qi widened his eyes in disbelief.

[Are you still my dear mom and dad!] Cold violence, this is definitely domestic cold violence. 】

Mr. Chi, Mother Chi and the eldest brother shouted in unison in their hearts: It was you who violated our ears!

Unfortunately, Chi Qi couldn't hear it. Without subtitles, he could only feel his family's rejection of him.

Chi Qi got angry for a moment.

[Okay, okay, you guys don’t cherish me, I’m going to run away from home for a few hours to let you feel the pain of losing me! You are going too far! 】

Father Chi and Mother Chi/Eldest Brother: “…”

Go, go, go quickly. There is no room for a big Buddha like you at home.

No one tried to keep him, so Chi Qi had to dub while running.

[Are you happy now?] You cold-blooded people! I will never forgive you! Never! 】
