In the afternoon, Shen Qingli received a call from Pei Yike, saying that she was going to her house to buy some vegetables, and she had already asked Sister Chen to prepare them.
After get off work, when Shen Qingli was waiting for Chu Xiaoyu to pick her up, she received a call.
Although she had deleted this number for several years, she could guess at a glance that it was from Zhou Yanchen.
Because he saved himself, he asked for her number.
Shen Qingli hesitated for a moment before pressing the answer button, "Hello."
"It's me." A deep and attractive male voice came from the receiver.
Shen Qingli said "hmm" lightly, and asked after a moment: "What's the matter?"
"Are you not off work yet? I'm at the door of your hospital. Come down and I'll take you home."
Hearing this, Shen Qingli felt as if his heart was entangled by thousands of threads, a tangled mess.
She really wanted to understand what Zhou Yanchen was planning and why he was so attentive to her recently?
This level of diligence is simply beyond the ordinary!
Shen Qingli took a deep breath, trying to keep himself calm, and then slowly spoke:
"Thank you for your kindness. I really don't need to trouble you, Mr. Zhou. My friend will come to pick me up soon."
However, when Zhou Yanchen heard this answer, his originally bright and lively eyes dimmed instantly, as if the brightest star in the night sky suddenly lost its brilliance.
I saw him respond softly with a "Uh." The sound was as light as a feather falling to the ground, almost inaudible.
Shen Qingli was secretly distressed. She knew that continuing to be entangled with Zhou Yanchen would bring her more troubles.
She gritted her teeth and mustered up the courage to speak again: "Mr. Zhou, if there is nothing particularly important in the future, please call me again.
After all, there doesn’t seem to be much need for us to contact each other.”
After saying this, Shen Qingli felt as relieved as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his body.
As soon as he said this, the other end of the phone fell into deathly silence.
Time passed second by second, and each second seemed particularly long and unbearable.
Finally, after a long time, the other party's deep voice came again: "Shen Qingli, can we... go back to..."
Unfortunately, before Zhou Yanchen could finish his words, Shen Qingli interrupted him without hesitation: "Excuse me, Mr. Zhou, I have a new call here, I'm hanging up."
Then, she quickly pressed the hang-up button, not giving Zhou Yanchen any chance to refute.
Zhou Yanchen stared at the disconnected phone in a daze, his whole body seemed petrified and couldn't move.
After a long time, he slowly came back to his senses, his eyes confused and empty.
It seems that it will take a long time for her to completely accept herself.
When Shen Qingli and Chu Xiaoyu came back, as soon as they opened the door, a strong aroma of food went straight into their noses.
At this moment, in the spacious and bright living room, an interesting program was playing on TV.
Shen Jinnan and Shen Jinxi, the lovely brother and sister, were staring at the screen intently, watching with great interest.
When they heard the door open and saw Shen Qingli and Chu Xiaoyu walk in, they immediately jumped up from the sofa and ran forward like two happy little rabbits.
Seeing the excited smiles on their faces, she immediately shouted, "Mom, Auntie, you are finally back!"
Shen Qingli smiled and said, "Well, babies, let's come back." As she spoke, she gently touched the two children's heads.
At this time, Chu Xiaoyu smiled and handed the bag that 꿛꿗 was carrying to the children, "Look at the new toys that auntie bought for you."
Shen Jinnan and Shen Jinxi took the bag happily and opened it impatiently to take a look.
When they saw the exquisite toys inside, their eyes suddenly lit up with surprise.
Afterwards, the two of them hugged the toys tightly, raised their heads, and said to Chu Xiaoyu in a well-behaved and sensible manner: "Thank you, auntie!"
Looking at the two cute and polite little guys in front of her, Chu Xiaoyu couldn't help but sigh: "These two little guys are becoming more and more likable!"
Shen Qingli, who was standing by, listened and smiled, "Maybe you guys think they are too noisy."
"They are very popular, and it's not just us. Others will see the same thing."
Pei Yike came over with the cooked dishes, "When you two come back, go wash up, the food will be ready soon."
Shen Qingli looked at her still wearing an apron, and said with a smile: "Yike, do you like going into the kitchen?"
Pei Yike smiled and said, "This is to reward you two great doctors who have saved lives and healed the wounded. I am willing to make a sacrifice."
"Yes, Ah Li, my brother will be here later, do you mind?"
Pei Xiao helped her so much, she still had time to thank him, why would she mind a simple meal?
Shen Qingli smiled and said, "Don't mind. It's very busy here with so many people. If there's anything left to do, you can take a break and I'll do it."
Pei Yike quickly stretched out her hand to stop them, "Use it, use it. You two go wash it and just sit here and wait for dinner."
"We'll be there soon."
Chu Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Well, I'm not polite. I'll go play with the kids."
Shen Qingli came out washing some fruits when she heard the doorbell. She quickly put down the fruit plate and went to open the door.
The door opened, and standing at the door was Pei Xiao.
When she saw Pei Xiao coming, a happy smile immediately appeared on her face, and she warmly called him to come in quickly.
Shen Qingli walked quickly to Pei Xiao and took several heavy bags from him.
Looking at the pile of bags, she felt a little embarrassed, "Brother Pei, why did you buy so many things again?"
Pei Xiao smiled slightly, "This time we just happened to catch up with the local strawberry season. I remembered that Dabao and Xiaobao especially like to eat strawberries, so I bought some more and brought them back."
Just then, Pei Yike came out of the kitchen carrying dishes.
Just hearing what Pei Xiao said, she couldn't help but laugh and said jokingly: "Brother, it's not just Dabao and Xiaobao who like to eat it, our A Li also likes it!"
After these words, the originally relaxed and happy atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle, and the air seemed to be filled with a hint of awkwardness.
Shen Qingli's face slightly flushed, revealing a slightly awkward smile, and quickly said: "Then...then I'll go wash these strawberries first."
After saying that, he hurried towards the kitchen like a frightened little rabbit.
Looking at Shen Qingli's hurriedly leaving back, Pei Xiao shook his head helplessly, turned to look at Pei Yike beside him, and complained in a low voice:
"Yike, could you please be more careful with your words? This makes everyone feel awkward."
Pei Yike playfully stuck out her tongue at her brother, then tiptoed over to Pei Xiao and whispered in his ear:
"Brother, I'm telling the truth. If you don't seize the opportunity and move faster, you'll definitely be chased away by someone else one day!
I heard that recently people in their hospital often send things to Ali."
