Chapter 132 This is the life I should live

The next morning, Song Shengsheng woke up drowsily when her cell phone alarm rang. She turned over and tried to reach over Jiang Yiyu to get the phone on the bedside table, but before she could reach the phone, Jiang Yiyu held her in his arms: "My dear, where are you going?"

"Take the phone."

"Don't worry about it. It will stop ringing after a while."

Jiang Yi Yu held her tightly in his arms. Because they were too close, Song Shengsheng felt something was wrong with him, but she didn't dare to say much. With a red face, she cleared her throat and moved silently to the other side.

"Don't move. If you don't behave, I promise you won't be able to go anywhere this morning."

Song Shengsheng calmed down. After a while, she said, "Why don't you go to the bathroom? I don't think you're feeling well."

Jiang Yiyu smiled helplessly, he held Song Shengsheng's hand and pulled her into the quilt...

Song Shengsheng froze: "Rogue!"

Jiang Yiyu came over with a smile and buried his face in her shoulder: "It will be fine in a while."

After a long time, Jiang Yiyu let out a long sigh. After a while, he sat up, lifted the quilt, and carried her into the bathroom.

Song Shengsheng sat on the sink and watched him turn around and walk into the shower room without any scruples. While taking a shower, she hummed a song happily. She jumped off the sink, washed her hands, and after washing, she took a bath towel and handed it to Jiang Yiyu.

"If there's nothing else, I'll go out first."

Jiang Yiyu came over, hugged her from behind, and took her step by step back to the sink: "Stay with me for a while."

"Why are you so clingy?"

"dislike?"

"It's okay."

"That's all."

Song Shengsheng curled his lips helplessly: "Wait for me here for a while, I'll go downstairs to open a new room and settle you in. I have to go see the teacher around 9:30, so I can't have lunch with you at noon, so don't starve yourself.

If you want to go out for a walk, don't go to crowded places. But now it's the May Day holiday, so there should be a lot of people everywhere. If you're really bored, you can also go talk to your partner about work. Anyway, it's the same wherever you go, just remember to tell me in advance."

"My partner is busier than you lately. I might as well stay in the hotel by myself instead of looking for him."

"Jiang Yuan is still struggling?"

"It's even more troublesome than dealing with Jiang Yuan. He's busy chasing his wife. Dealing with Jiang Yuan is his way of showing his loyalty to her. But I don't think it's going to be any use. He's... well, he's completely screwed once he encounters relationship problems. He even told me before that he envied us and asked me how I got you."

"how do you say?"

Jiang Yiyu squeezed the toothpaste, put the toothbrush in his mouth, and said vaguely, "I told him that if he wants to learn about love from us, he must first find a way to know his wife for twelve years. He also needs to be as charming as me and make his wife like me for twelve years. He also needs to be prepared to give up everything to be with his wife. He also needs to be able to act coquettishly and flatter her, and use a love-brained mind as his dowry."

"How shameless! This is the first time I've seen someone praise themselves like this."

"Who cares? As long as it's useful, I have a wife anyway."

After changing the room, Song Shengsheng hurried away with her bag.

Jiang Yiyu lay on the bed for a while, feeling more and more bored, so he simply picked up his phone and called Jin Beisheng.

The phone rang for a long time before it was answered: "Hello, Mr. Jin, what are you busy with?"

The wind was a bit strong on the other end of the phone. Jin Beisheng said, "I'm climbing a mountain and preparing to go to the temple to worship."

"Hiking? There are so many people on holiday. Are you going to hike or just to experience the crowd-hopping?"

Jin Beisheng: "Just tell me, what's the matter?"

Jiang Yiyu: "Nothing, I just have nothing to do in South City, and I thought if you have nothing to do, we can go out and have a drink together."

Jin Beisheng: "Let's talk about work after the holiday. I'm very busy now, but I can ask my assistant to entertain you."

Jiang Yiyu sighed: "Forget it, you should just take your time to play the crowd-traveling game. I'm hanging up..."

Before he could finish, Jin Beisheng had already hung up the phone. Jiang Yiyu sighed again and muttered softly, "What's the point of just praying to Buddha if you don't take actual action to pursue your wife..."

He stayed in the hotel all day doing nothing. He took a nap at noon and slept until Song Shengsheng came back.

Song Shengsheng put down her bag and placed the lunch box on the coffee table. She walked to the bed and nudged Jiang Yiyu: "Are you still sleeping? If you continue to sleep, you'll be staring blankly until dawn again."

Jiang Yiyu opened his eyes and yawned. He rolled over to Song Shengsheng wrapped in the quilt, lay on her legs, smiled and pointed to his mouth: "Kiss."

Song Shengsheng lowered her head and pecked his lips. "Today, Senior Brother Shang Heyu took me and my teacher to a local restaurant in South City. I thought the food was delicious, so I packed a few dishes for you."

"Shang Heyu again."

"Don't be jealous. We all have serious things to do. When you finish your meal, let's go out for a walk, just like the last time you were filming in South City. To be honest, I really like South City at night. It's lively but not too lively, and the streets are clean and green."

"Then we'll move in later."

"No." Song Shengsheng rubbed his head: "Hurry up and get up. I've been walking all the way and the food is almost cold."

After dinner, Jiang Yiyu put on the same clothes he wore yesterday, put on a mask and a baseball cap, and left the hotel holding Song Shengsheng's hand.

The two held hands and walked aimlessly along the street. After a while, Song Shengsheng felt tired. She squeezed Jiang Yiyu's hand. Jiang Yiyu understood and bent down to carry her on his back: "My dear, have you lost weight again recently?"

"You always say that every time you carry me on your back."

Jiang Yiyu smiled and said, "I want to buy some new clothes."

"At this time, the mall should be closed."

"You don't have to go to the mall. I was bored today and searched around. I found a few night markets nearby. They should all have stalls selling clothes. I can go there and buy something to make do with."

"You're really easy to support."

"That's right, I never pick and choose."

He carried Song Shengsheng on his back across two streets. As more and more people came on the road, Song Shengsheng jumped off his back and carefully checked his mask and hat. After confirming that they were covered properly, they followed the crowd into the night market at the end of the street.

Jiang Yiyu nervously held Song Shengsheng's hand. Song Shengsheng moved around freely. She walked to a small clothing stall and pointed at two T-shirts. The owner took them down from a long clothesline and handed them to her. She felt the material, picked them up, and gestured to Jiang Yiyu: "Not bad, what do you think?"

"As long as you feel good about it."

The two T-shirts cost a total of eighty-three yuan. Jiang Yiyu tried to bargain down the price by three yuan and was very proud of it for a long time.

After buying clothes, Song Shengsheng dragged him to buy two glasses of freshly squeezed juice, and ordered some stir-fried seafood and fried rice noodles. They sat at the plastic table behind the stall. Jiang Yiyu pulled down his mask a little, drank juice, and looked at the people around him who were drinking and laughing. He whispered, "I feel like this is the life I should live."
