She had paid so much that Wu Siqi had no idea how he should face this person.

It was true that she liked Yi Ning, but in comparison, she was like a shallow thief, stealing her past with Lai Siyuan and her deep affection for her.

Wu Siqi couldn't comment on the past, so he just gently turned the page and sighed, "So that's how it is."

Yi Ning chuckled: "It's all in the past. This time next year, I'll be a free man, and I'll be able to stay with you forever."

She blinked again and added, "And don't look at me like this. Over the past four hundred years, I have quietly accumulated a lot of wealth in the human world. I guarantee that you, Xiaowu, will never have to worry about food and clothing in your life."

"No worries about food and clothing?" Wu Siqi raised his hand and flicked her forehead to stop her from bragging. "I don't spend much money by myself, so I don't need your money. I have hands and feet, so I don't need you to support me. As long as you are safe, I don't need you to do so much for me."

She felt sorry for her, giving foolishly without expecting anything in return. Even though he was no longer that person, she still loved her wholeheartedly without any reservations.

You are a fool, and I am a fool too.

Wu Siqi leaned over and hugged her, whispering, "I'll wait for you to come back, and then you have to go with me to see the sun, moon and stars."

Yi Ning hummed heavily in her arms, gently hugged her back, buried his head in her thin neck, and rubbed against her soft and fragrant neck.

The two chatted and laughed while eating dinner. Before going to bed, Yi Ning got into the hospital bed in a very dishonest way, squeezed next to Wu Siqi, and snuggled into her arms.

It was too crowded. The bed was narrow to begin with, and when she squeezed in, the two of them could only press tightly together. Wu Siqi wanted to push her down, but when he opened his five fingers and was about to use force, he retracted them.

Yi Ning happily hugged her waist and said, "Xiao Wu's waist is so thin, and her skin is so smooth." As he spoke, his hand reached into her clothes.

Forget it, we haven’t seen each other for a long time, so I’ll allow you to be a little wild today.

"I'm sleepy, be good." Wu Siqi folded his arms, closed his eyes, and raised the corners of his lips slightly.

When he opened his eyes the next day, the other side of the sunken bed was empty. Wu Siqi turned over and occupied the entire bed again, looking up at the white ceiling.

This is not a dream.

The biography of Lai Buyi on the bedside table reminded her.

After a long while, a doctor and nurse knocked on her door and came in to examine her and change her dressing. The doctor said, "Your wound has healed well and is almost scabbed over. I won't prescribe any topical medication. Try not to get the wound on your face wet, or it will leave a scar."

The nurse took her blood pressure and temperature and drew a tube of blood. The doctor told her: If the blood test results show no inflammation, she can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow.

Her self-healing ability has become much stronger. She remembered that after the car accident, the bruises on her body took half a year to disappear. Now, in less than three or four days, they are so shallow that they are almost invisible.

what happened?

Wu Siqi stared at the barely visible knife mark on the back of his hand in a daze.

The cold air from the air conditioner blew her loose hair, and the summer cicadas outside were noisy and annoying. At this time, Xu Tingting called.

Xu Tingting's background was very noisy: "Teacher, how are you? When can you be discharged from the hospital? I want to come to see you tonight, is it convenient?"

Wu Siqi said calmly: "I'm fine, don't come. There are many germs in the hospital. I will be discharged tomorrow. You don't need to go to visit me and make such a trouble."

The doctor said she was able to get out of bed and walk around. She stood at the window to answer the call. Looking out, she saw green trees in front of the inpatient department and many people walking around.

A sigh came from the other end of the phone, and Xu Tingting said, "Okay, then I won't bother you anymore, teacher. You should have a good rest."

There are people who have recovered and been discharged from the hospital, people who visit the sick with fruit baskets, and people who sit on the bench crying while holding reports. The hospital is a place where all kinds of people can be found.

"Yeah." Wu Siqi: "Tingting, you have been promoted and are now on equal footing with me. I have nothing more to teach you."

Xu Tingting bit her lip: "Got it, Team Five, bye."

Wu Siqi: "Bye."

With the hand holding the phone hanging at his side, Wu Siqi opened the window and let the heat outside rush towards him. Summer was coming, and in one month it would be the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, which was not a very auspicious day.

She is about to turn thirty.

I believe that everyone has fantasized about what kind of adult they will become when they grow up when they were a child.

Thirty years old is considered a mature and stable age for many people. Have you ever thought about what kind of life you should live when you are thirty years old?

Is it to achieve success and fame and realize your ideals? Or to travel the world and live in peace and contentment? Or to simply live a simple life with three dishes and a soup?

Wu Siqi believes that at the age of 30, he has let down the child who once dreamed of becoming a bird doctor and has wasted his time in a daze.

Yi Ning opened the door to a new world for her. It turned out that even if fate was already written, it could be changed. She didn't want to let herself down and worked hard with Ning Ning to save her life.

The next day, he was discharged from the hospital and returned home. After not having been home for several days, the house was still the same, but lacked the familiar atmosphere. He threw the big backpack filled with clothes on the sofa and went into the bathroom to take a hot bath.

Wu Siqi tore off the tape on her face in front of the mirror. Beneath the pink marks was flawless skin. The wound that was so deep that the bone was visible did not even leave a scar.

Something strange must have happened to me.

She had a vague guess in her mind that she needed to confirm. She dried her hair, sat cross-legged at the coffee table, and placed the Lai Buyi Record in front of her.

She decided to open Pandora's Box. She had a hunch that the answer she wanted was in this book.

***

While Wu Siqi was immersed in the book, on the other side of the city, in a bar known only to insiders, Xu Tingting was drunk.

The bar is not big and is divided into two floors. The first floor has a bar and several high-legged wine tables, and the second floor is full of separate booths with strong privacy. The lights are dim, and there are many people drinking and chatting, even on weekdays.

Xu Tingting lay on the bar, shaking her empty glass to ask the bartender for a refill.

The bartender was a girl with short hair, and she gave her a Baileys iced drink.

"Little sister, are you drinking alone? Are you interested in having a toast?"

Xu Tingting pushed the man's glass away, half of the wine spilled and splashed onto his shirt. "Go away. Don't mess with me if you're in a bad mood."

"Xu Tingting, I didn't expect you to be such a bad drinker." The man didn't get angry. He took two tissues from the table and used them to wipe the wine stains off his clothes.

When she heard the man calling her name, Miss Xu Tingting turned her noble head and looked him in the eye.

"Who are you? You look so familiar."

Xu Tingting was quite drunk. She pointed her finger at the man's nose and asked, "Have we met before?"

Zhang Li pushed her hand away helplessly. There was no point in talking to a drunkard. She guessed that she wouldn't be able to recognize Wu Siqi even if he was standing in front of her.

Then he asked the bartender, "How many drinks has she had?"

The bartender thought for a moment and said, "About five or six drinks. Lili, is this your friend? This is the first time I've seen you come down to the first floor."

Zhang Li waved her hands and said with a wry smile, "Colleague, she came over here alone to talk to me. She's so drunk, she probably doesn't even remember who her mother is."

"I know! My mother is Ms. Wu Meixin!" Xu Tingting raised her hand and put it on Zhang Li, saying drunkenly, "Don't think I don't know you're teasing me. I have good ears!"

"You're so drunk after just five or six glasses of wine. You have a very poor alcohol tolerance." Zhang Li let the drunkard rest on her. She was still very happy to be close to the beautiful girl.

Zhang Li asked her curiously, "You're not busy with the project and you're here to get drunk. Aren't you afraid that the project will fail, Team Leader Xiao Xu?"

"It's over!" Xu Tingting burped drunkenly. "That's perfect. Demote me back to execution. I'll have plenty of time to slowly develop a relationship with the teacher! One day, the teacher will be moved by me!"

Xu Tingting talked at length: "After all, that thing! The stone...is made of metal, the sincerity...is not yet opened..."

Zhang Li couldn't help laughing, and poked Xu Tingting's pink cheek with her hand, "Sincerity can move mountains, hahahaha, does Lala automatically unlock the poetry recitation skill when she's drunk?"

"Teacher!" Xu Tingting leaned against Zhang Li, looked up at her, her intoxicated eyes full of infatuation, closed her eyes and prepared to kiss her. Zhang Li cried out that it was not good, this person would recognize the wrong person when he was drunk.

Zhang Li quickly stepped back, and Xu Tingting, who had lost her leverage, fell to the ground from the high chair with a thud.

Very loud, it’s a good start.

"Hiss!" The pain sobered Xu Tingting up a bit. She sat on the ground with her hands covering her forehead, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.

The beauty shed tears, looking pitiful. Zhang Li squatted down and said softly, "Are you okay? Let me see if there are any broken skin."

"Team Zhang?" Xu Tingting saw who was coming and released her hand that was covering her forehead to let the other party check.

"You recognized me?" Zhang Li used the flashlight on her phone to check me out. It was just a little red and swollen. "Nothing's wrong with me, my little beauty."

Xu Tingting stood up by holding the legs of the high chair and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "I'm sorry for making a fool of myself just now."

"It's okay, just compensate me with a glass of Sunshine Coast." Zhang Li sat back on the high chair and gossiped about her: "I guessed you liked Wu Siqi, and suddenly came here to get drunk. Did you fail to confess your feelings?"

Anyone who shows up at this bar has an open sexual orientation, and Xu Tingting isn't afraid to discuss this with Zhang Li. "I wasn't formally rejected, but she didn't even let me call her teacher today. She's completely trying to draw a line between us."

"Oh~" Zhang Li dragged out the last word and nodded: "Then you are pretty miserable."

"But I really admire Wu Siqi for this. He's cold and efficient, and he's even more efficient at rejecting suitors. Isn't that great? It puts an end to your hopes, so you can find the next one."

Xu Tingting said angrily, "I've liked the teacher for two years! I won't give up."

Zhang Li raised her eyebrows. "You're quite stubborn, but you're really too young. You can't warm up this old ice. Didn't you spend two years and get nothing? Do you think five or ten years will be enough? Don't waste your youth, little sister."

"You don't understand!" Xu Tingting yelled at her angrily.

Zhang Li, who rarely gets yelled at, didn't get angry. She patted her shoulder and said, "I was your age too. Which lesbian hasn't fallen in love with an unapproachable sister?"

She took a sip of wine, narrowing her narrow eyes. "You can't chip away at the wall in Wu Siqi's heart. If you keep wasting time, you'll only get hurt. You should spend your twenties on the people you should love."

Xu Tingting understood the truth, but she was unwilling to let go. She once thought she was the special one, but later she found out that it was just Wu Siqi who was a nice person.

She gulped down the wine in front of her and raised the glass high, "Another one!"

Seeing that she was about to get drunk, Zhang Li put down her glass and tried to persuade her: "Team Leader Xu, have you really decided not to go to work tomorrow?"

Xu Tingting drank the refill proudly: "Screw his father's job!"

Zhang Li was worried that something might happen to her, so she accompanied her for two rounds of drinks. Xu Tingting drank three glasses of wine and finally collapsed on the bar.

Zhang Li patted her cheek. She was so drunk she looked like a fool. She could be sold to a pig slaughterhouse. Then she sighed and said, "Oh, I forgot to ask where her home is."

It was not okay to just let her sleep here, so Zhang Li called her friends upstairs and asked them to come down to help her move this stupid Xu into the car.

Xu Tingting was thrown sideways into the back seat. Under the teasing eyes of her friends, Zhang Li asked the designated driver to drive to her home.

The designated driver parked the car in the parking space, ended the order and left. Zhang Li tried twice, but there was no way she could move the pig by herself. She had to start the car again, turn down the air conditioner, and lower the windows a little to prevent the person inside from suffocating.

Fortunately, she switched to a new energy vehicle and no longer has to worry about gas costs.

She went home to take a shower and change clothes before going downstairs to see Xu Tingting. She was motionless as if dead. She raised her hand to check her breath and found that she was not dead, so she covered her with a thin blanket.

Zhang Li sat in the passenger seat, adjusted the seat to be comfortable, hugged her arms, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.

Anyone who has ever slept in a car knows that the first second you wake up, your neck will feel a stinging pain. Zhang Li was in so much pain that her eyes were blurry. She had to admit that she was old. She was in her thirties, Ms. Zhang.

After turning off the alarm for her morning run, Zhang Li looked back at Xu Tingting, who was still sleeping like a pig. She was instantly furious and shouted at her, "Xu Tingting! Your phone is missing!"

Xu Tingting opened her eyes instantly and looked around, "Cellphone!"

Zhang Li picked up her phone between her fingers. "Five hundred yuan for the overnight electricity bill. Thank you, Team Leader Xiao Xu."

Xu Tingting, still drunk, sat up dazedly, "Team Zhang? Where am I?"

Zhang Li returned her phone to her. "You're in my car, in the parking lot of Tianhua Community. Can you still go to work?"

Xu Tingting's pupils were dilated and she still had a hangover.

The morning light was just rising. She glanced at her phone and saw it was only a little after six. She shook her head. Zhang Li smiled and said, "Since you can't get in, do you know how to get home?"

She still shook her head. Zhang Li patiently asked her, "Would you like to come to my house for a while? You can't go to work, but I do, Miss Xu."

Xu Tingting nodded at this time. Zhang Li led her upstairs, and Xu Tingting lay down on the sofa and fell asleep again.

She changed into sportswear, did aerobics on the treadmill for 45 minutes, took a shower again, made breakfast and ate a full meal.

Xu Tingting was still lying there in the same position. Zhang Li placed her breakfast on the coffee table, squatted beside the sofa, poked her shoulder, tilted her head and smiled, "You're quite well behaved at this time. Wu Siqi, you really don't have any sympathy for women."

I sent her a message on WeChat, and Zhang Li slammed the door and went to work.

Zhang Li walked into Boss Cui's office with the quotation sheet. Wu Siqi was inside. The two people in the room looked up at her. Boss Cui spoke first: "I received your letter. Since you insist, there is no need for me to keep you. Siqi, please leave first."

"Thank you for your understanding." Wu Siqi stood up and bowed. When he turned and passed by Zhang Li, he nodded politely and closed the door when he left.

Zhang Li placed the quotation sheet in front of Boss Cui and asked in disbelief, "Is she quitting?"

Boss Cui hummed, raised the letter in his hand, and said, "Here it is, written by hand, fresh and hot."

"She's actually leaving. I thought she would stay until retirement."

It's no wonder that Zhang Li was shocked. In an industry with such high mobility, Wu Siqi had worked in a company for seven or eight years without leaving. No one could have guessed that she would resign for no reason.

Boss Cui curled his lips and said, "She said it was due to health reasons. Forget it, let's not talk about her. Maosheng Technology has some opinions on your quotation..."

Wu Siqi, sitting at his workstation, let out a long sigh and curled his lips unconsciously. A new life begins here.
