Chapter 144 The New House
Lin Huai's health fully recovered after the spring of the following year.
During this period, I saw many doctors and had repeated physical examinations. The doctors gave all sorts of strange explanations. Finally, one doctor said that if medicine can't solve a problem, you should ask metaphysics.
Others might not believe it at all.
But since they were the representatives of metaphysical time travel, they listened to it to some extent.
Lin Huai had been taking Chinese medicine for almost half a year, and it was so bitter that he was dying.
Later, Xiao You resigned herself to her fate and didn't want to bother him anymore. She decided to just let things take their course and live a peaceful life.
Several months passed in this way. One day after work, Lin Huai was watching TV at home while Xiao You was busy fighting passionately in the King of Glory game. Suddenly, they received the happy news that their high school classmate was getting married and asked them to give a big red envelope.
Towards the end of the month, Xiao You probably ate too many snacks, and with her weakened immune system, she suffered from vomiting and diarrhea at home, forcing her to be hospitalized and drink porridge every day.
Work was completely disrupted, so after a while I just stopped going to work altogether.
He has completely resigned from his position as vice president and is now focusing on recovering at home.
Before that, there was some work to be handed over. The new assistant, a young woman named Wen Yunyun, was a recent college graduate. The newly appointed vice president was a strong woman in her forties who didn't seem easy to get along with.
Therefore, there were some issues that the assistant had to consult with Xiao You about.
Wen Yunyun asked Xiao You, "Mr. Xiao, could I invite you to lunch today? I'd like to ask you some questions."
Xiao You thought that everyone has their own difficulties, and she should help this young girl who had just entered society. After hesitating for a moment, she agreed.
He sent Lin Huai a message, briefly explaining the situation, and Lin Huai replied with an "okay".
I had lunch at the company cafeteria.
However, the next day at noon, just as Xiao You was about to excitedly run to Lin Huai's office with her porridge to have lunch, she was stopped by the young girl again.
Wen Yunyun's cheeks flushed red as she looked at Xiao You and said, "President Xiao, I have a few more questions I'd like to ask you, and I'd also like to thank you for your help. Would it be possible for us to have lunch together again today?"
Xiao You: ...
Xiao You felt something was wrong, because she had already explained all the precautions and even Lin Huai's taste in food and coffee without sugar yesterday noon, so why did she still have so many questions?
It would be too strange to have another lunch, so I simply invited the newly appointed vice president to discuss work-related issues.
Everyone had their own agenda during the meal.
Even though her newly appointed boss was sitting across from her, her eyes were fixed on Xiao You.
Xiao You sensed something was wrong.
In particular, she asked about his love life.
Fortunately, the new leader answered almost instantly: "Oh, you don't know? This company was originally started by President Xiao and President Lin. Their story has been a legend since high school."
Wen Yunyun lowered her head thoughtfully, occasionally glancing at Xiao You as if she were thinking about something, but she didn't ask any more questions.
Just as they were finishing their meal, they saw Lin Huai walking towards them from a distance.
She can still make his heart flutter, no matter when.
Lin Huai looked at Xiao You, his gaze indifferently falling on Wen Yunyun beside him. He didn't say anything, just nodded to the new vice president, and then looked away and walked in another direction.
It looks like they're here to inspect the cafeteria.
Xiao You let out a sigh of relief, made up an excuse, and quickly slipped away.
Lin Huai didn't say anything on the surface, but after attending several meetings, he told his assistant that he was going to take a week off at home.
The reason given was dizziness and difficulty breathing.
The assistant turned pale with fright and quickly told the boss to go home and lie down.
But not long after, the boss returned.
The married secretary seemed to understand, and looked at Lin Huai, asking, "Did you two have a fight?"
Lin Huai shook his head and said, "What's your wife like at home? Is she fierce?"
The secretary said, "My wife is a little white rabbit at home." After thinking for a moment, she added, "But my wife is definitely not as gentle as President Xiao. President Xiao looks very considerate."
"..." The secretary killed the conversation in an instant.
Lin Huai sighed: "He was just getting angry at me, and then he was being gentle."
Secretary: "What's wrong, Mr. Lin?"
Lin Huai: "He said that only one person in a family can lie down."
Then they pushed Lin Huai, who was pretending to be sick, out of the house and slammed the door shut.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Huai was going abroad on a business trip, and Xiao You did not go with him this time.
Xiao You decided to give Lin Huai a huge surprise while he was away on a business trip.
Although they video chat every day and have a long-standing, married-like relationship, they still feel lonely when they are alone.
It was already dark. Lin Huai loosened his tie and lay down on the sofa, as always, acting coquettishly towards Xiao You, "Making money is so hard."
Xiao You would always feign a sigh: "It's still so much easier to stay at home and live off a woman."
The two chatted and laughed, then Xiao You flopped onto the sofa and whispered, "I missed you..."
Lin Huai kissed him over the phone and urged him to hang up and go to sleep.
Neither of them wanted to hang up first.
Lin Huai finally asked, "You're always lying at home, how come you're so tired..."
The phone had fallen into the sofa cushions.
When Xiao You woke up the next day, she found herself already in bed.
The bedside lamp was suddenly turned on, and a person knelt down beside the bed and kissed his forehead.
Before he could react, he groggily reached out for a hug, then suddenly sat up, his mind exploding with surprise as he looked at the travel-worn person in front of him.
Happy Qixi Festival, my darling.
Xiao You jumped up and sat on the bed, hugging him tightly, "Why are you back..."
Lin Huai said, "Didn't you say back then that you missed me?"
I thought I'd come back.
After hugging for a while, Lin Huai said again, "It's Qixi Festival, I can't let you be alone in an empty room."
"It's so far... and it's nighttime, how come you..." Xiao You buried her head in his neck and shoulder, closing her eyes.
Are you still leaving tomorrow?
"I'm not leaving. I've finished dealing with work, and I'll leave the rest to my assistant. I'll come back to be with you as soon as possible."
Lin Huai hugged him and kissed his eyes: "The seventh Qixi Festival."
On Qixi Festival, Xiao You also received a huge gift.
He drove Lin Huai to a villa area, which was a river-view apartment.
Lin Huai looked at the house, which was exactly the same as the house in his book, and instantly understood what the person who seemed to be so tired that he was asleep every day had been busy with.
Xiao You asked, "Do you like it?"
Lin Huai said, "I like it. When did you buy it?"
Xiao You said, "I used your card during the Chinese New Year."
puff...
As I entered the house, I was greeted by a familiar scent.
The interior decorations and furnishings are the same as they were back then.
In the very center hangs an oil painting of my grandma and grandpa.
Like a family portrait.
"In this way, it's as if Grandma and Grandpa are always by our side."
As I sat down on the sofa, a kitten darted out from beside me.
Lin Huai received so many gifts today that he was momentarily stunned. "What's this?"
Don't you think he looks familiar?
Xiao You stroked the cat's fur, picked it up, and handed it to Lin Huai.
"It's getting quite old, so I think we should bring it home and let it live with us."
"Could this be..."
Before Lin Huai could finish his question, Xiao You said, "This is the cat I saw at the hospital entrance when I was discharged from the hospital back in high school. I immediately thought it looked a lot like Zhihua. Liu Cuicui sent it to a rescue station, and later I contacted the rescue station and funded the construction of a small shelter for it so that Wang Bahang could take it back. And here it is, I brought it back for you."
The cat unconsciously rubbed against Xiao You, its eyes seeming to sparkle.
"Thank you."
"This is what I was going to say, you stole my lines."
The wind was gentle, and the only sound in the house was the sound of their kissing.
