Chapter 624 The Down-and-Out Second Generation is the Ex (10)

When Duan Sijun returned home, it was already past three in the morning.

He thought Shi Yi was asleep, and his footsteps were very light when he entered the house. Unexpectedly, he had just taken two steps when Shi Yi ran out of the room, hugged him and acted coquettishly, "You're back."

Duan Sijun picked her up and put her on the sofa, holding her feet and rubbing them, while whispering to scold, "What if you catch a cold without wearing shoes?" He noticed that she didn't see the pile of things he had placed in the corner, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"I'm so happy that you're back." Shi Yi snuggled up to his shoulder, her small hands clasped with his big palms.

Duan Sijun rubbed her head with heartache, "You won't sleep if I don't come back? Are you stupid?"

"Not stupid." Shi Yi hugged him tightly, "I know you are busy with work these days, so you take care of yourself very well."

Duan Sijun's face was gray for a moment, hesitant to tell her the truth, but also worried about other things, hesitant to speak, and finally said, "You are going to the student's house tomorrow, go to bed quickly."

"Okay." Shi Yi hugged his neck and said coquettishly, "Hold me."

He patted her butt with his big hand, and finally smiled, "Little coquettish ghost, I have never found you so coquettish."

"That's because you love me more and more." Shi Yi was gently put on the bed by him. The

two hugged each other quietly for a long time, and Duan Sijun reluctantly let her go, covered her with a quilt, and told her, "You go to bed first. I'll come after I take a shower."

"Okay." Shi Yi showed a clean face, and a pair of peach blossom eyes looked particularly cute and well-behaved against the pink sheets.

"Then I'll turn off the light for you." Duan Sijun touched her cheek lovingly.

Her sleep and rest schedule has always been normal, but she has kept her eyes bloodshot waiting for him tonight. What a silly girl, she didn't know to call him to ask when he will be back, but she insisted on waiting at home alone. If he doesn't come back, will she not sleep?

"Yeah." Shi Yi squinted and nodded, as if he was very sleepy.

When she nodded, the quilt around her shoulders and neck was a little loose, so he tucked it in for her, "Close your eyes and I'll take a shower."

"Then come quickly." She did as he said, and hid her body in the quilt again. Obviously, she looked very sleepy.

With a "click", the room went dark, and the footsteps gradually faded away. She opened her eyes and just saw his back as he closed the door.

Duan Sijun came out of the room, took out the big-headed book from the bag in the corner, and read it page by page in the light under the dining table.

It was too difficult to make money in the electronics industry without connections and resources, and he had offended Xi Yun, who made trouble for him everywhere, making it difficult for him to work, so he sold all the products he had bought at a low price and chose to invest in the Internet. The two of them jointly registered a company, with Zhang Chaoyang responsible for providing connections and resources, and he responsible for providing technical support. Because the company had not yet officially made a profit, neither of them said anything.

Although he had learned about the Internet in college, he had almost forgotten it now. In order to make money, he had to learn again. After

studying until half past six, he hurried to the bathroom to take a shower and got into the warm bed. He didn't want Shi Yi to know that he hadn't slept all night and worry about him.

After staying outside all night, his body was cold. He was afraid of freezing the girl, so he deliberately slept on the edge of the bed. Just as he closed his eyes, a warm body pressed against him.

He wanted to push away, but was hugged tighter.

It was really warm, and he didn't want to go against his true will, so he fell asleep in a daze. After walking half of the city, his legs couldn't help but twitch in the quilt. It was Shi Yi who massaged him for a long time

before they relaxed. When he was woken up by the alarm clock, Shi Yi had already gone to work. He quickly washed up and carried his things to the company, but saw a large stack of cash on the dining table with a sticky note on it - Duan Sijun's pocket money for this month.

Duan Sijun's eyes were hot. Since the accident at home, he has not earned a penny, but she has used all the money she had saved and her current salary to support herself.

Last night, he truly experienced what it means to "a penny can make a hero fall." His best brother Zhang Chaoyang has paid a lot for the new company. He didn't want his good brother to see his embarrassment, so he has been holding on. He refused Zhang Chaoyang's offer to drive him home. However, after leaving the company, he had no money on him. Facing the distance of half the city, he had no choice but to walk home. This walk took more than two hours. He had never suffered this hardship before, so he remembered this feeling and regarded it as a way to exercise his mind.

Success, must succeed. Duan Sijuan only had this thought.

Li Wei recently discovered that the child's teacher was becoming more and more thrifty. She would pack up the unfinished dishes at home. Of course, if the child's teacher didn't pack up the dishes, she would throw them into the trash. There were only her and the child in the family, and no one wanted to eat overnight dishes.

She hesitated for a long time, and finally found an opportunity to speak today.

"Shi Yi, tell me the truth, have you encountered any difficulties recently?"

Shi Yi paused while packing the food, then continued to pack, and smiled gently, "No."

Li Wei noticed the movement of her hands, knowing that the girl really had something wrong, and she was embarrassed to say it out loud. Since people didn't want to say it, she didn't ask. But later, she would make an extra portion of food.

The Xi family didn't have anything else, but they still had this little money for food. While Shi Yi was talking to the child about writing, she would take the initiative to pack Shi Yi's food for today. Of course, it was not leftovers, but the extra portion she made.

One day, when she was packing food in the kitchen, Shi Yi happened to come in and saw it. She smiled embarrassedly at first, and when she was thinking about how to explain, the girl held her hands.

"Oh, it's nothing. The family has been saving food for Huanhuan's father recently. Don't worry." She didn't want to add psychological burden to the girl because of a little food.

"Sister Li, I will remember your kindness." The girl turned away with sobs, not wanting her to see her vulnerability.

She raised her hand and patted the girl on the shoulder, both comforting and encouraging, "Life will get better and better."

"Yes. It will get better and better." When the girl turned to her, tears flashed in her eyes.

Later, the girl became the wife of the richest man in the city, and was envied and despised by other young girls. They posted a lot of messages online discussing how the girl was not good-looking and was not worthy of being with the richest man. Li Wei would refute them using her real name, because they had no idea how much the girl had paid and how great she was to wait for her partner to become successful.
